Indiana Harbor Man Shot Dead In Clothing Store Trying To Buy Wife Winter Coat
From information obtained from various sources the killing of Oscar Brown, 3609 Parrish Ave., Indiana Harbor, Monday morning at 10:20 o'clock in a clothing store at 3332 South State street, owned by L. Wolens (white), by Policeman John Shannon of the Third Precinct, was nothing more nor less than a cold-blooded murder.
It appears that Wolen's store had been robbed earlier in the day, and he had called the Cottage Grove Station, asking that an officer be sent over to investigate the robbery. In response to this request, the commanding officer of that station detailed Policeman John Shannon (white) to investigate the robbery.

POLITICAL FIGHT BARES INHUMAN CRUELTIES
POLITICAL FIGHT BARES INHUMAN CRUELTIES
By Wesley G. Gilbert
NEW ORLEANS, La., Sept. 22—The recent tight waged in this city by the Orleans Democratic Association (white) to break up "ring rule" here was the bitterest in history of the present City, and in the course of the struggle to free this city from corrupt politics, horrifying brutalities were brought to light which affect directly our people here. Speaking on this point, State Senator Craven referred to the conditions which brought about the riot on March 1 in Parish prison.
Herded Like Pigs
Among other things Senator Craven said: "The colored prisoners revolted because a colored woman in a delicate condition had been refused medical aid, and because another colored woman who tried to aid her was struck by a deputy. Arming themselves with sticks and mops, the prisoners made a determined bid for freedom. The jailers secured riot guns and a colored boy by the name of Payne was shot to death.
"Then, cowed and broken, the prisoners were herded back into their cells.
"Then for five days there was enacted behind those prison walls a scene which beggars description: Herded like pigs, but not half so well fed, half clothed, flogged out of mutiny by the deputies, the prisoners presented a pitiful spectacle. For five days they were allowed neither fresh air or fresh water. For five days men and women wallowed in their own dirt and filth. For five days men tore and clawed at the iron bars of their cages. For five days the air was rent with defiant curses, with frightful oaths, with terrified screams and screeches, some prisoners huddled six in a cell, cramped and crippled in their close quarters. For five days no prisoners washed, bathed on shaved; men walked their cells, the pasty pallor of close confinement showing through their dirty beards women law as though dead, their mated hair smeared and stained with tears of sleepless nights."
This exposure by Senator, Craven helped bring about the defeat of Mayor Behrman's "ring" at the polls, and it is hoped and believed by many that our race will fare better at the hands of the incoming administration.

standing what it all meant, was shot down before he had an opportunity to comply with the policeman's command. Wolen, who operates the store, stated that Brown asked to be shown some ladies' cloaks. This is borne out by a statement of Mrs. Beatrice Brown, the wife of the murdered man, who says her husband came to the city that morning for the purpose of buying her a winter coat. Wolen himself has stated to several people that the shooting of Brown by the officer was a deliberate and cold-hearted act, not to hear the officer tell Brown three times to hold up his hands, but instead that the officer shot immediately after approaching Brown, and was so close to him at the time of the shooting that the powder burned his clothes.
Place of Inquest Changed
The inquest over Brown's body, which was originally set for the undertaking establishment of King & Hill, at 36th and State streets, was changed to a more suitable environment for the police, namely, the Cottage Grove station, where it is alleged that a carefully picked coroner's jury was selected. The case is called and continued until September 30. It is rumored that Wolen is being carefully schooled for his telemetry, more the coroner's jury. Determine for the dead coroner's relatives, however, the case will be heard by Deputy Coroner Kennedy, who is noted for his fair and impartial conduct as a public official.

Kokomo Woman Segregated: Brings Suit
KOKOMO, Ind., Sept. 22—Mrs. Lois Grace, colored, of this city, to day filed suit in the Howard Court against Ernest Whittle, proprietor of the Colonial n. picture theatre, for violation of the Indiana civil rights law.
The plaintiff represents that on the evening of Sept. 4 she "went to the dependant's theatre with a desire to attend and see, observe and enjoy his picture show; that she paid fifteen cents for a ticket at the theatre office, entered the theatre, and was being shown to a seat by an usher, when the plaintiff in a rude, insolent, and angry manner, accosted her, seized her by the arm, and informed her that she could not occupy such seat." Mrs. Grace avers that she is colored, and for this reason was excluded from the theatre.
The statute in this state is very clear on the point in question, and there is little doubt that Mrs. Grace will recover judgment in her suit, and the customary $100.00 penalty imposed for violation of the statute.
In view of the clearness of the law in this state on the question of segregation, it is wondered whether Whitley preferred to pay the $100 penalty to setting a precedent for admitting colored people to the place.

At Harrison Street Police Court Tuesday morning a case was called and continued to September 28th in involving a Mrs. Ida Belle Isaacs, said to be a married lady, and Mr. Henry Summers, a real estate operator, located in the Avenue building, Mrs Isaacs charges Mr. Summers with larceny by bailer of a diamond ring. Rumors are allot to the effect that Summers, who it is said, is engaged to be married, has been in possession of the ring for over eighteen months. It is also alleged that the recent announcement of Summers' engagement is what really hastened the request for the return of the ring. Society gossipers who have known the popular young business man because of his presence at various social functions and calls, are awaiting with baited breath the bursting of this choice bit of scandal when the case comes to trial on September 28th.
Says Negro Vote May Swing Election
NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 22
Figures published today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, indicate that we vote of Negroes in Northern St. may elect the next President.
"The Negro this year," says the Advancement Association, "will constitute the base of power or will approach closed, being the balance of power in 8 total states which have 165 votes in the electoral college."
The states with their probable Negro vote, due to immigration and enfranchisement of women, are given as follows:
Hinois 125,000
Indiana 45,000
Kentucky 150,000
Maryland 150,000
Michigan 25,000
New Jersey 75,000
New York 125,000
Ohio 100,000
In each one of these states the probable Negro vote is larger than the number of votes necessary to swing the State.
Race Feels Strong Democratic Trend in Kansas
WICHITA, Kan., Sept. 22.—The first Democratic headquarters ever organized in the State of Kansas, was opened Monday morning at 600 N. Main St., here. The headquarters are under the direct supervision of Dr. J. E. Farmer, a physician of this city, and a general campaign to enlist members of the colored race under the Democratic standard is being waged throughout the state from this headquarters. In an interview Dr. Farmer stated that the Republican party has a history of broken promises, and stands on a par with the Democrats who have made none to break. The campaign has aroused much interest and already many influential and wealthy colored people have gone into the Democratic camp.
Reject Fred Douglas From Hall of Fame
NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 22.—Frederick Douglas, who was recently nominated for the "Hall of Fame" in New York University, has been rejected by the committee of one hundred whose duty it is to pass upon such nominees. Douglas' name was placed in nomination by Cleveland G. Allen, a Harlem newspaper man. The election takes place every five years, and according to the rules, a candidate must have been dead ten years or more, and must answer to the definition of "having been much talked about, chiefly in the good sense, or having accomplished some great achievement."

Recalcitrant Wife With
"Other Man"
Mr. Eugene Lee, who resides at 1404 Western avenue, Little Rock Arkansas, wended his way to the city on Wednesday last on a sad mission. His coming was unheralded and unsung, but it was pathetic and tragic Early in the spring his wife, Mrs Mattie Lee, evinced a desire to visit Chicago and see something of the hustling and bustling town of which she had so often read. Mr. Lee decided that she was deserving of this trip by reason of her constant fidelity to her family of three children and himself.
Makes Preparations for Visit
Special preparations were made by the husband for this visit and accompanied by the children, good-bye, placing her aboard with the assurance and confidence at she would receive much needed Mrs. Macleay arrived in Chicago and became the guest of her husband's sister, Mrs. Laura White 3849 South State street. For eight weeks she received the hospitality and the courtesies of visiting friends at the residence of Mrs. White. At the expiration of which time she journeyed to her home and to the side of her husband.
Magnetism Draws Her Back
Three weeks from the date of her arrival home, Mrs. Lee, while her husband was at work, packed her trunk, taking everything that she wanted and her oldest boy of fourteen years, without the knowledge of her husband and returns to Chicago. When he came home from work he found her gone and also observed that a number of articles in which they held joint partnership, including his oldest son, had disappeared. After several days he learned of her whereabouts through an insurance agent whom she had instructed to transfer her policy to 2507 West Lake street.
Follows Her to Chicago
With this information Mr. Lee came to Chicago and through the aid of the Keystone Detective Agency, 129 Egst 31st street, his wife was located at the number mentioned above. A warrant was secured for the arrest of Mrs. Mattie Lee and James Johnson, with whom she was living under an assumed name. The couple was arrested Tuesday morning. When the officers arrived, James Johnson who is a night fireman at the Palmer House, was found in bed and Mrs Lee was in the kitchen preparing the breakfast. The husband secured his

HOUSTON, Texas, Sept. 22.—Oscar Beasley, colored, who was indicted last Thursday for the murder of Sheriff Joe Snow, of Brazoria County, was taken from the jail the same afternoon and lynched by a mob of 300 "citizens." No attempt was made by the authorities to restrain the lynchers, many of whom, it is said, were members of the mob. A result of this latest lynching, members of the colored race are forsaking the county in large numbers.
CRAZED BY ILLNESS SHOOTS AT WIFE; KILLS SELF
Despondency Over Ill Health Ascribed as Reason for Suicide and Attempted Murder
Mystery surrounds the suicide of Delbert Brown, age 43, 3845 Calumbet avenue, who on September 14 attempted to kill his wife, and missing his mark, turned the revolver upon himself, fired a bullet into his right ear, and died before medical aid could be secured. Mrs. Brown, his intended victim, could not be found, hence the cause which led to the suicide and attempted murder is still a matter of doubt and uncertainty.
Neighbors Suspect Insanity
In conversation with several people who reside in the immediate vicinity of the Brown home it was learned that Brown had been in poor health for some months prior to the tragedy, and it was thought that he was mentally deranged at the time of the shooting. A reporter for the WHIP visited the scene of the shooting in quest of more complete information, and found the residence closed to the public with shades closely drawn and he locks on the screen doors. He cried, however, that a friend of the family lived at 4852 Champlain avenue by the name of Mrs. Lewis. Mrs. Lewis could shed no light on the tragedy other than to comment statement that Brown's death state of mind was probably due to ill health.
Rumored "Another Man" in the case From another source information was obtained that the name of a third party had crept into the tragedy. The matter was investigated and apparently no justification can be given for the naming of the party in question, hence his identity will not be disclosed in this story. If further investigation proves the correctness of this information a more elaborate story will be published in the next issue.
Southern Preacher Says We Menace North
MACON, Ga., Sept. 22. — "The North is in for a bad spell with the Negro problem," Dr. William Russell Owen, pastor of the First Baptist Church, declared yesterday upon his return to Macon, after a visit of a month to the North Carolina mountains and to Eastern cities. Dr. Owen declared that negroes have taken possession of some of the strips of the beach at Atlantic City, and that the North is losing its feeling of protection over the negro and has come to regard him with a grave hatred.
"See Flaming Race Hate"
The North is in for a bad spell with the negro mobble. I found on this page growing hatred between the races in the North than one ever Discovers here in the South. Negro cooks and maids in some cases are making as much as $25 a week. There is a growing intermarriage between the whites and blacks and a flaming race hatred. The whites are losing the tolerant spirit that looked upon the blacks as the wards of the Northern States to be protected. Now the question is the old question as old as Moses, of radical antipathy. Negroes at Atlantic City now have several sections of the most prominent parts of the beach for their own possession."
WHISKEY STILL UNEARTHED
Officers Ewing, Kilroy, Williams and Mulcahy of the Cottage Grove station, while seeting around discovered a whiskey still set up and ready for action on the second floor of a barn in the rear of 3204 Calumet avenue. Upon investigation it was learned that the outfit was the property of J. H. Lewis, a roomer at the home of Henry Dillard, 3204 Calumet avenue.

As the result of a street corner fight at 47th and Halsted streets at 7 o'clock Monday night, the Chicago Herald-Examiner overplayed the story in their mad frenzy to build up a large morning circulation, causing several innocent people to be severely injured, and almost precipitated a serious race-riot.
The fight started Jan Thomas E. Barret, 1109 E.

NEWPORT NEWS. Va., Sept. 22. —Tonano, a small town between here and Williamsburg, was the scene of a small race riot when white an- colored citizens staged a free-t-r-all fight as a result of a quarrel over some spoilt fish. It appears that a white man by the name of Cowles bought some fish from a colored man, and the fish later proved to be rotten. When the white man demanded his money back and was refused, the fight started. Several were seriously injured, but from latest re-ports, none were killed.

At this juncture a crowd of Hailstated street gangsters began to gather and the three robber men started to rattle. They were pursued by the throng, whom they succeeded in outdistancing, taking refuge in St. Gabriel Catholic Church, 45th and Wallace streets, where they were secreted away by the Rev. Thomas M.

UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP
We told you so. We told you to imagine Roscoe Simmons, Bishop Parks or Major Motion going on a hunger strike as MacSwiney, the Irish patriot, is doing. We asked you to imagine it. Well, last week a well known "Leader" remarked that MacSwiney was getting food surreptitiously (on the sly).
That is the way that the average Uncle Tom thinks in terms of pork chops, on the sly.
The members of the New York legislature plan to fight those five socialists whom the people of that Commonwealth re-elected after they had been unseated.
If those colored members of the New York legislature again repudiate the desires of the people whom they represent they should be tarred and feathered.
We see where Chicago has sent an expert on Bombings to assist in the investigation of the Wall Street catastrophe. If Chicago has any "experts" on Bombings they certainly have not shown any of their ability here. Think of it—32 homes being shattered by bombs and not a single apprehension.
A certain newspaper of the city of Chicago which is called the world's Greatest Weekly refers to members of our race who are not scrupulously neat and tidy as "Skunks."
This manner of treating civic and personal untidiness and uncleanliness is both unbecoming the mouthpiece of the race and is certainly beneath the dignity of high class reformers.
There are certain political "Leaders" in Chicago who claim that the time is not ripe for a colored congressman to represent them. The time apparently is ripe for them to sit in Jim Crow cars and to feast on the crumbs of American economics and politics. These Leaders are justifying their position by saying that it would be useless to attempt to elect a congressman without the support of their white Bosses. This is the Slave Psychology that has caused us to be branded as unfit and inferior.
The Bishops are playing politics now. They are stump speaking, not for principles or measures but for money. They are hanging around the political offices and taking care to have their hands in any money melon that is to be cut. These "Ministers" would do well to attend to the politics of the church. We have heard that it pays well financially also. Give the rest of the world a chance, Bishops. Please.

The results of the Republican and Democratic primaries on Wednesday last, judging from the present returns, indicate a change of the political history of a number of prominent men. In the Republican primaries, the William Hale Thompson faction swept Cook County and nominated as well the Governor and State Treasurer. This success was obtained against the combined influence of the Daily News and Tribune and their cohorts of utilities and corporations. It appears from indications that it was a clear reflection of the people's allegiance to Mayor Thompson's views and principles of government.
Tribune Has No Political Influence
The last few elections in this city and county are indicative of the fact that The Chicago Tribune and The Chicago Daily News are without influence as political mentors in their own locality. This is largely due to the fact that in their desire to destroy certain public officials they have gone beyond the boundaries of truth and have made irresponsible statements and are no longer regarded by the people as mediums of veracity. They have made inappropriate that whenever they take the lead in supporting a candidate for office it is a signal for the people to go the other way.
Thompson Triumphs
The Mayor not only carried Cook County, but his principles of government were accepted by the people of the State and since the campaign was fought out on the grounds of "Thompsonism versus Lowdenism," Thompsonism has become the dominant power, with Lowdenism becoming powerless. This is a clear indication that the people of Illinois have planted their faith in the Thompson idea of government and believe with him that the government should be run by the people and for the benefit of the people.
Hoyne Walloped
The primary battle between Mr. Hoyne and Mr. Igoe resulted in the defeat of "Mac." Mr. Hoyne's fearlessness as prosecutor was admired by many but he seemed to have forgotten that even public officials must have some friends and must remember that the office must be conducted for the benefit of the people regardless of race or religion. Chief Justice Robert E. Crowe, candidate of the Republican party was nominated for State's Attorney by an overwhelming majority and will be elected beyond any doubt in the November election. His record as Chief Justice of the Criminal Court as it affects us is commendable in every respect. He bears the stamp of painstaking, fearless and impartial public official. The Second Ward gave the Republican ticket over 11,000 majority, running far ahead of any other ward in the city. This was largely due to the effective work of Committeeman Edward H. Wright and his organization.
Correction
Mrs. Murray Walker, Columbus, O., has been in the city for some time as the guest of her sister-in-law, Mrs. Bulah Jones, 4747 Langley avenue. Mrs. Jones recently graduated in the art of photography. She contemplates opening up a studio in this city in the near futures

vices. We are all with special attention to veracity and truth and to spare no individual at the expense of public morality. In short, a public organ should proclaim the truth to the people in the "presence of the king" and to the king in the presence of the people in each all inake such statements as can be verified and supported by facts. All else makes a newspaper a "calamity bowler" and in the end serves no good purpose either for the king or the people.
A newspaper which poses as the filtering medium of morality and advice between the people and the king and betrays the people at the expense of the king is unworthy either of the confidence of the people or the kings. On the other hand if the same institution betrays the king at the expense of the people it becomes a destructive institution to the detriment of the people. Thus it is, if a newspaper is to hold its place as the beacon light for civic purity and racial morality, striking with force and effect upon those things which serve to deter the progress of the race, community or the nation, it must justify its right to such a position by standing as an institution unpurchasable and without "entangling alliances" either with the vice of the community or those who sponsor and foster it.
In order for this to obtain, the pilot on board the journalistic ship must be a man capable of holding his rudder with a steady hand, steering through reefs of sinister advice and ignorance and guarding his cargo safely over the rocks of vicious and immoral influences. He who thus commands the ship can ill afford to lend an attentive car to those elements which seek to destroy the morality of the race. If he does lend car, he becomes unwittingly an aid of the very influences which he is naturally sworn to fight as part of the mission of the "fourth estate."

"NOSEY" SEES ALL KNOWS ALL
A man in a suit bending down to knock on a door.
NO LONGER is Twenty-second street and Indiana avenue the storm center for local color and excitement. Every evening Nosey will be on Thirty-ninth and Indiana avenue instead. All of the gunmen, thugs and gold-digging vampires can be seen in this neighborhood filling the night hours with their maudlin cries as they climb into taxi cabs, staggering and reeling under the influence of "cooking" whiskey. Nosey sees all of this and the police sees it, too. You may see it if you wish to on any old night or rather any morning about one o'clock.
ON A FAIR evening last week, Nosey's beard resembled the beard of the "uninstructed" delegates from Mississippi at the last Republican convention. So Nosey decided that he would venture into one of the tonsorial parlorls. The one selected had nothing but the fixtures and a manicurist. Nosey naturally inquired what had happened. The cute little lady informed him that "Babe" Ruth was in town and he couldn't expect to get shaved until the "swatter" had departed.
SOME of the good gentlemen who get their moonshine in the dark places ought to remember that the moon shines some nights. Nosey saw three of them "passing the bottle" in the alley between Calumet and South Park avenue just as the moon came out from behind a cloud, and tried to creep up on them to take his "revenue," but the same moon made for Nosey's downfall as the stealthy ones saw him coming and hurriedly departed, yet he saw the popular drug clerk's face and wondered if he had a prescription for that good half pint.
EVERY ONE has their line. Nosey hear a woman asking why the grocer wanted so much for his tomatoes when she could get the same ones across the street for half the price. The green goods man looked at her and said, "Why, these are hand-picked tomatoes and that is why they cost more." The good housewife from South Park avenue said, "Oh, is that so? Well, give me twice the amount that I asked for." She pidd him. Nosey smiled and mumbled something about "one being born every minute" and walked on.
YOU HAVE noticed the red light in the hall of that that building in the thirty-six block on the east side of Indiana avenue. Well, Nosey found out that there are only three nights in the week when they put on this "red light" stuff and on those nights there are some red headed "pale faced" women visit the place as well as some other kind of headed men that are not "pale faced." Nosey tried the place on one of the white light nights and there was nobody home. Then he tried it on the "red" night and no one would let him in, yet the piano was going. Funny, ain't it?

When the evening shadows fall, after the day's work is done, after the subway and elevated trains have carried their precious cargoes to their respective destination, the big city is enveloped in the chonny mass of night, then New York's night life begins and the creatures who work at day or avoid work can be seen and they will be seen in places that you have read of. In the underworld in cabarres and in the many rendezvous of devilish humanity. In Harlem where the black folk abide the cabarres run in full blast and they are to be found in pungent basements with the characteristic wan and drawn faces. In the cabarres there will be found the mongrel types of Negroes, roughneck sailors whose ships lay at anchor in the Hudson, assembled in the suffy rooms for the night's wild orgle. No attention is paid to the one o'clock closing law and the night stick of the patrolling cop keeps time to the shrieking popular songs of the half drunken entertainers. White girls with dishevelled hair, painted faces may be seen staggering out of the subterranean hangouts, escorted by the redneck proligates or any one else that happens to drift along. The Bowery is extremely mild and quiet in comparison to the cabaret district of Harlem.

You can purchase a drink at any old bar, at any old-time, at a price varying from 35 to 60 cents. Attrg your hat is thrown into the ring, you may secure an excellent quart of "bottled in bond" for $6.50. The law knows it, citizens know it, prohibitionists know it, yet a Banquo's ghost it cannot be downed. It has a powerful kick for a ghost.
TO THE YOU KNOW
'EM EDITOR
You know those ladies that go to the grocery store and talk their business over with the clerks. Well, tell them that it not only shows ignorance but also lowers them in the eyes of the clerks.
I know you know those people in the 32nd block on Indiana Avenue who are constantly disturbing their neighbors in the building with late visitors of the "pale face variety." I know you know them because they neither work nor spend yet Old Solomon cannot hold a candle to them when it comes to weeping apparel.
You know that real estate broker on State Street between 33rd and 35th Streets. Well, he transacts a lot of business in his office and sometimes he is real late getting through.
You know you know that little fellow who spends most of his time telling the "white folks" in the bank all about his business. Well, don't criticize him, it isn't his fault, he is an apostle of Jack Johnson and both of them "love the big white folks."
You must know that chiropodist on 31st Street who is said to have left hurriedly from a Grand Blvd residence taking a large portion of the plate glass door with him, sustaining a badly cut hand and arm. Oh, you must know him. Well, he said that it was an accident—it may be true.
I know that you heard about that new divorce case that is about to break. If you haven't—get ready and lock up your own skeleton for it is coming. Oh, you 38th and Indiana Avenue.
You must have heard about the prominent young lady who visits the Avenue Theatre quite a deal and they say sometimes after the show. Wonder if she does the cleaning at the theatre after the show is over? Keep your eyes on Nosey.
I know that you are still disguised with the loud talking on the street cars and the ignorant expressions heard. Well, you can only hope that Father Time will come to your rescue.
You know that restaurant on State Street where the prices are the highest and the food the worst, yet the proprietress will insult you if you make a moderate complaint. You must know them because they have running over the people for a long time and getting away with it too.

Seoar ne iaimuanie Mieatre ta us
opening week The Panama Amuse-
ment Co, came hack strong and pre
sented a show well worth seeing
Both the music and the comedy are
wood, and the big crowds are kept
laughing from beginning to end. The
songs are catchy and the costumes
keep the high pace set by those in
"€anary Cottage.”
The story of “September Morn” is
derived from the famous painting of
that name. Argentina, a famous Pav
risian dancer, is about to make her
debut in New York City and her press
Agent devises a scheme to make her
famous by suggesting to. the public
that she is the original of the paint
ing. He has the real picture stolen
and takes it to Professor Plastric’s
‘tudio, to have it retouched and to
have Argentina's head placed in the
briginal painting, The theit is dis
eoveref and traced to Plastric’s studio,
vodly to find that it had been sent to
‘the artist’s home. Counter complica-
tidns are developed in which many
Jaughs and excruciating situations are

ig’ good, and it goes without saying
that the Indiana Ave. playhouse will
be a sadder spot after Ollie Powers
has gone with his well modulated
tenor.
‘The show is good in every sense of
the word, A word of caution, how.
ever, should go to the orchestra. Its
rhusie is just a little too loud to hear
“the lines of the players from the rear
tof the house, .
“September -Morn” is well worth
seo sng.
“September Morn” opened big at
this popular house on last Sunday
Shelton Brooks did honor to himself
inthe comedy role and the costuming
wagyp.to the atandard. of the other
two shows.
+ The adaptation is a little better for
the eolorpd audience as more humor is
inserted in this book than in the other
two. "The" character Df the’ mother
yed'"by' Margeret Lee was poor:
¢haracterized; she done the part of

“Town Top-piks” a Big Hit
“Town Top-piks,” as it is called, has
taken first rank among all that has
heen presented in the musical comedy
Tine, Brown and Gulfport with Ger-
trude Sanders haye won a place in the
hearts of the fans. One ‘of the dis-
tinet features of the evening was the
Buck dancing of Miss. Lewis who
really dances, and a Mr. James Thom-
as who completely stops the doings in
his girl dance number, Gulfport as a
comedian has no peer (as the great
Sylvester Russell would like to see)
his is naturally fanny in the humor-
ous sittiations and is alone worth the
price and time spent tg see and hear.
he chorus is composed of twenty
pretty girls who work awfully hard,
and in fact it is the best drilled chorus
seen in this city in late years. Town

From the southland the Fosters go to Philadelphia, Pa., opening against the Rachariah Giants Oct. 5th, the series of games being in the nature of a world's affair in base ball parlance.
Giants 1920 Success
The Giants have had, or better, have enjoyed a very successful season, both from a playing and financial standpoint; the team has reigned victories over all competitors in the new Western circuit, having taken the season's series from all clubs, including the six gantle go against the Eastern cracks, the Bacharach Giants. The five game series with the Rogers Park of the City League was dropped on account of the present trip, leaving the leaguers two, and one for the Giants on the season's play.
The Giants have broken all records as a drawing card, having pulled the largest crowd ever seen on the American Association park at Kansas City, filled the Indianapolis park to capacity, jammed Navin Field, American League grounds, Detroit, and played to the largest week day crowd ever seen in the West at St. Louis. Two hundred thousand persons have attended the games at Schorling Park, Chicago. The present trip should add fifty thousand more to the attendance. The Chicago Giants of the Western circuit will play out the balance of the season at American Giant's Park and will be opposed by the best teams out of the Chicago League and all-star teams made up of big league players. The Indianapolis A. B. C's will go south later on, while the Kansas City Monarchs will no longer go to California. The new team team, consisting a western trip and, no doubt, may play ball at Palm Beach, Fla. The Detroit Stars have a series of games, with a bunch of American league stars from the Detroit Tigers, which the Colored teams of the East have big engagements with major leagues for a final conclusion. With a team of all-star Western circuit players led by Big Bill Gatewood and headed for St. Louis, also the St. Louis Giants playing the National League team a series, it looks like big things and deep water for the final plunge of the Colored teams for the season of 1920.
A. B. C. FLAYED
"Rube" Foster's American Giants brought the 1920 season's play on the home grounds to a close here last Sunday, when they took the final circuit game from the Taylor A. B. C.'s without much effort. The veteran Diana Johnson did the slabbing for the Indians and played a leading roll in the opening canter, aiding in part to the three markers acquired by the Giants by a bad pouch to base, and allowing the champs to touch his offering for a trio of base bingles. Johnson pulled himself together in the third round, defending himself to the tune of walking DeMoss, Torrentiti and Jim Brown back to their bench via the strike-out route, the breezing coming three in a row. Dave Brown was up to just form that has made him the most feared pitcher on the circuit, the A's getting him for five base knocks, just three more than they ever got off the classy southpaw; still the Hoosiers have much to thank for the Cubans. Bacharach Giants, and K. C. Monarchs are the only teams this summer to go many as five hits. Dave Brown. He is truly the most effective pitcher on the circuit, having downed all the strong circuit clubs with more to spare than any other hurler. In the Sunday game, Taylor's new men did not notoriously impress, and his old good-byes, the fellows who have carried the burden of all the hard battles for the past five years, displayed unmistakable signs of the heavy strain of the passing season. Charleston, young in years, is the same as when he electrified the Chi-fans and still Jooms up as the best in the country. The Hoosiers play at St. Louis and Kansas City, then get back to the home town and may go south. The score:

Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 21. -Hitting Pitcher Currie hard in the first two innings, the Cuban Stars from Havana defeated the Monarchs, 7 to 1, at Association park.

UNION GIANTS DOWNED
WAUKEGAN, III., Sept. 21. It took all the stuff that Johnny Overlock had to stop the team that Will Peters is showing these days. Overlock is the pitcher that created such a sensation in the American Association, and has, for many seasons, been the one tough nut for the Foster team to crack. Peters has a team of college and high school stars and has been putting up a showing of late that stamps his charges as a mighty worthy foe for any team on the diamond. The score:
Detroit, Mich., Sept. 21—Detroit Stars took Sunday's game at Mack park from St. Louis, score 2 to 1. Carr and Holland were both in fine form. The visitors outhit the locals, but were unable to hit Holland with men on the bases. Petway caught a wonderful game, stopping three runners at the plate. St. Louis played a perfect fielding game.

GREEN'S CHICAGO GIANTS HERE
Joe Green's Chicago Giants, the team that has been putting the works to all competitors with alarming regularity here of late, will play out the balance of the present season as the home club at Shorling Park. Green has two of the very best pitchers on the circuit in Taylor and Luther, the pair having put it on several big teams around these parts, with wins to their credit over the best down East. The Romeos, one of the strongest teams out of the Chicago League have been picked as opponents for the Green's, and from the present form of the two battling aggregations, the fans are in for a good go. The fact that there will be no more big league games on the South Side on Sunday, and with the Americans away on a tour, the best teams around these parts have been secured that the South Side fans may be entertained by a high grade of pastiming.

TWO NEW GUNS TO FIGHT PLANES
OUR ORDNANCE DEPARTMENT IS BUILDING IMPROVED ANTI- AIRCRAFT ARTILLERY.
INGENIOUS MOUNTS DESIGNED
Signal Corp'z Installation of Apparatus and Equipment at Camp Perry Is Interesting — Telegraph Wires Tapped for Press Messages.
By JAMES P. HORNADAY.
Washington. — Anti-aircraft guns manufactured by the army ordnance department during the war were designed, for the most part, in 1917 during the early stages of the war. The principal improvements recommended by those consulted in regard to the features desired in such artillery are a shorter time of flight of the projectile, a means of setting up the mount in a horizontal plane and absolute stability when firing.
In the light of those recommendations the ordnance department is building two calibers of anti-aircraft guns and mounts therefor.
One of them is a three-inch gun that will give to the projectile a muzzle velocity of 2,000 feet a second, and will have an elevation from zero to 80 degrees and a traverse of 360 degrees.
By an ingenious design of pedestal mount, it can be set up on a fixed emplacement or on a vehicle of the trailer or self-propelled type. The pedestal is provided with a self-contained adjustment for leveling the traversing parts so that, when the mount is used on a vehicle, it may be easily put in operative condition.
A self-propelled vehicle also is being designed for the gun and mount. It can travel on rubber-tired wheels on ordinary roads or be converted into caterpillar traction for travel over rough roads and open country.
What Heavier Gun Is Like
The other gun is a 4.7-inch piece, designed to give a muzzle velocity of 2,600 feet per pound. It is carried on a mount similar to that for the three-inch gun. Loading at all elevations will be done by a rammer which is operated by compressed air. The weight of a round of ammunition and the high elevation make the loading system necessary for rapid fire. A self-propelled convertible wheeled and caterpillar vehicle also is being manufactured for this gun.
The signal corps installed at Camp
Be a Good Samaritan
By "Full of Pep"
Perry, O., during the target competitions there, an exhibit of some of its apparatus and equipment. Including radio telephone outfits. One of the most useful features of the installation is a long-wave intercepting radio receiver, which is used to intercept press messages passing over telegraph wires, and the messages are posted on a bulletin board at the camp. Thus those in attendance at the camp are given the latest news before it is published in the newspapers to which it is sent.
Development of improved armor-piercing projectiles for the army is progressing satisfactorily. The government is now producing 14-inch projectiles that penetrate 14-inch armorplate at 20 degrees from perpendicular (normal). Several projectiles have been fired, and additional tests of further supplies will be held to give an impact against the plate at 25 degrees from normal.
New Types of Canister.
New types of canister have been tested in 37 mm, and 2.24-inch tank guns. These canister shells contain the regular one-half-inch shrapnel balls, which penetrate two inches of spruce-plank at from 150 to 200 yards. Tests now are under way by the army ordnance department of a new subcaliber tube for 75 mm. guns. It is the 37 mm. gun, model of 1916, converted into a subcaliber tube by removing the breech block and providing adapters to seat it in the 75 mm. gun. The 37 mm, low explosive ammunition is fired in the subcaliber tube by the service firing mechanism of the 75 mm. gun. A large surplus of this ammunition is on hand, and the subcaliber project was undertaken in order to use it for practice.
Subcaliber tubes for the 155 mm howitzer, 155 mm, gun, and 8-inch howitzer also will be ready for test in the near future. Adapters for these larger pieces are more complicated and means must be provided for firing the primers.
There have been delays in acting on applications of officers of the regular army for transfer from one branch of the service to another in accordance with the new army reorganization law, particularly in the case of cavalry and infantry officers, owing to the fact that until recently the chiefs of cavalry and infantry were not appointed. The law requires the consent of the chiefs of the branches from and to which a transfer is asked before it can be made.

Case To Be Investigated
_ The WHIP urges a careful, impar-

duct. If it can be proven that he was
justified in killing Brown, the WHIP
has no more to say, but on the other
hand, if his action was unwarranted
and without justification, we shall un-
hesitatingly urge his indictment and
conviction for murder, The WHIP
takes the position that citizens have
rights and if this kind of action js
permitted, where individuals on peace-
ful errands can be shot down with
impunity and the case disposed of by
a friendly coroner's jury, it is time
for the public to know it. Regardless
of what attitude the coroner's jury
takes in this matter, this paper will
urge that all the facts be presented
to the grand jury.

THE FAMILY PHYSICIAN
HOLDS a place in the household next to
the head of the family. When sickness
comes, confidence in his ability, combined
with his watchfulness and care, restores the
health and happiness of the patient. His
orders are obeyed—he prescribes such reme-
dial agents as will relieve the conditions he
finds. He expects certain results from the
medicine. If the prescription is not properly
compounded the patient does not improve
and probably is retarded in his recovery.
SHOULD stand next to your PHYSI-
CIAN. He fills the prescription and on his
ability and the quality of the drugs which go
into the mixture depends the results of the
Physician’s treatment.
LET US BE YOUR DRUGGIST
W ITH YEARS of experience and full line
of pure fresh drugs, we are able to car-
ry out your physician’s wishes. The results
expected by your physician are thus secured.
WE DO NOT SUBSTITUTE!

STEAM HEATED MODERN FLATS FOR RENT
FTER months of effort and after the expenditure of much time and money, 200 steam heated electric lighted apartments have been secured be ready for occupancy October 3rd, October 16th ember 6th.
A
THIS was done after all of the Southside real estate agents had announced that it was impossible to get not only good apartments but any at all, and many southside residents have been forced to take poor apartments that were poorly lighted and had no steam heat.
O NOT be misled by profiteering real estate operators who pretend that there are no flats for rent. They merely want you to buy property can rent at a moderate price.

Cast Thy Bread Upon The Waters
“Cast thy bread upon the waters, and in many days it will re:
turn to thee.”
Since the days of the Reconstruction period, the white Ameri.
can conscience has been casting bread upon the waters—bread of
lynching, burning, and beating—bread of bomb terror and mob vio-
lence.
Many days have passed, and the bread is beginning to reiurn.
A few bloody crumbs washed ashore in Wall Street, New York, the
other day, and thirty White Americans died by the terrorist bomb.
“Vengeance is mine, I will repay’, saith the Lord.” The Lord
is beginning to repay.
The religious fanatic who believes blindly, and the cynical dis-
believer who denies just at blindly must both see the truth of thin
simple, time-worn proverb, if they both watch the trend of affairs.
No religious fervor is necessary.
It is with no vindictive spirit that we say that the thirty white
Americans who died, and the hundred others who were injured in
the Wall Street blast, paid with their blood for America’s lawless-
ness. It is simply that we recognize the operation of that unerring
universal law, that law from which there is no escape—the law of
action and reaction.
For nearly threescore years the American Governmef }.t7'by |
its indifferent inactivity and its remorseless apathy, prac{cally san-|
tioned the lynching of Negroes throughout the country. As a result,
the public mind has become so poisoned, and the plc moral so_
decayed, that recently two white men have been lynghed, one the so
of a judge. THE BLOOD OF THESE “~ WHETHER
INNOCENT OR GUILTY, MUS *AT! RED ON [THE DOOR:
FUsis, NOT 50 MUCH UF HERS THEMSELVES, AS
ON THE DOORPOSTS OF THAT SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT
WHICH ALLOWS THE MINDS OF ITS POPULACE TO BECOME
SO CALLOUS THAT SUCH CRIMES CAN BE COMMITTED
WITH IMPUNITY.
In Chicago, the American home of bomb terrorism, and the
birthplace of the I. W. W., the homes of thirty-three American Ne-
groes have been bombed with “immunity”. The constituted authori-
ties sworn to protect life and property have evinced little or no dis-
position to apprehend the marauders. The psychology given birth
by this immunity to bomb throwers has quickly placed bomb throw-
ing at the head of “safe” methods of fighting one’s enemies.
Strangely enough, last Thursday’s blast in Wall Street has been
traced back to Chicago, and it would be peculiar, indeed, if the con-
trivers of that giant blast of TNT should finally be discovered to be
the same gentlemen who have made South Side nights hours of
anxious vigil rather than periods of peaceful slumber.
The seeing eye, and the discerning mind, must point the
‘accusing finger at those administrators who have allowed both poten:
tial and full-fledged criminals to feel secure in wanton lawlessness.
America’s tide of wanton lawlessness is beginning to sweep in-
shore, washing up ever and anon the bloody crumbs she so carelessly
cast to the waters in past years. She may expect an ever increasing
flood of compensatory calamity until she realizes that the pendulur
which has once swung outward, must inevitably swing back again
The tide is coming in. The Lord is repaying. Many days have
passed, and the crumbs are washing up!
Blood Will Tell
Has your ideal been blasted, your hope for your people been
shattered, and are you fearful for the future of your race? If so,
perhaps it has never occurred to you that “your fears may be liars
and the future may be in yon smoke concealed. Your enemies chase
even now the fliers but for you possess the field.”
A tall, angular man of color, a man with a fighting heart and a
fighting record, but upon whose face the network of Time’s tiny!
wrinkles bears mute evidence of age, recently remarked, “I am dis-
couraged. Every dream that I have had in my earlier days, every
vision of my race uplifted, proud and loyal, has proven itself to be
a mirage—nothing more than a fantastic creation of my mind. Every
ideal has been wrecked and ruined. I can see only darkness and dis-
pair.” With these words the toiler hung his head and “homeward
plodded his weary way.”
The shattered ideals, the blasted dreams, the illusionary mirage
and the pitiable discouragement of the tall, angular man of color
with his sixty years of wrinkles is shared by many of the dark skinned
pilgrims who also are in the slough of despond.
This is no time for discouragement, despondency or despair.
We know that up to the present it has been extremely difficult to
drive the members of the race into organized effort. We know that
it has been extremely difficult to get the fullest degree of economic
and political action. We realize that inaction, apathy and inertia
can be found among the colored people of America. Yet we are not
‘only hopeful, we are confident that the future of the American Negro
is to be a glowing record of achievement and it is only a question of
time before the despised “half man’’ will elevate his status to that of
the other giant racial groups. _
The American Negro is going through an evolutionary period—
‘a period that is always slow and gradual but always constructive.
Evolution is a process of nature which neither prejudice, inertia ov
apathy can stem. THE AMERICAN NEGRO IS THE STRONG-
EST RACE POTENTIALLY IN THE WORLD. IT THRIVES IN
THE CESSPOOLS OF CIVILIZATION AND GROWS LIKE A
LILY OUT OF THE MARSHES—IT CANNOT BE STEMMED.
ey eee Oe Ore re an i ii ciao se eee
The air castles and ideals which have been devastated and de-
stroyed will be rebuilt by black artisans who even now are at work
in their closets.
‘That crimson colored fluid that we mortals call blood gives life,
energy and activity to mankind. It is the vital principle of life—the
cause of temper, disposition and state of passions, The blood of the
‘American Negro is the most virile, reproductive and vigorous in all
creation, It is a mixed product, free from stagnation, which has not
been devitalized by excessive inbreeding as has been the blood of
the white and yellow races. The American Negro is a NEW RACE
which has no worn-out cells. Lifegiving properties inherited from
his brilliant Egyptian ancestors can still be found. The genius of that
blood is still retained. The daring fire of the Caucasian burns the
cenius of the Eyyptian and powers of both of these strains of blood
have been fused in the arteries of the American Negro. That blood
rniust tell and it will tell. Time alone is to determine his future. The
time for pessimism or despair has not arrived. Give that blood chance
to assert itself. Do not subdue it but aid it with political and eco
nomic action. The work of Nature is slow, but like the mills of the
gods it grinds incessantly.
