Collins, prominent appomotox clubman, startled Chicago society this week by filing a bill for divorce in the Circuit Court against his wife, Mrs. Margaret Collins, 4272 45th Place. Charges Infidelity In the bill Mr. Collins declared that his wife's clandestine association with other men violated her marriage vow. He names Larry Foster and Julius Maybeen as co-respondents. Mrs. Collins is also charged with neglecting her husband's comfort in the matter of cooking. So strained became their relatives that he criticized her as forced to abandon her about July 15, 1920. Both Well Known Both Mr. and Mrs. Collins are well known here. They were married July 2, 1909. Mr. Collins is employed by the R. W. Hunt Co., engineers Mrs. Collins is well known for her activities in Quinn Chapel A. M. 2 Church. WATCH EXECUTION; GLOAT OVER AGONY WATCH EXECUTION; GLOAT OVER AGONY LITTLE ROCK, ARK, May 7 — Watching an execution has evidently became the latest indoor sport in some sections of the South, judging from the conduct of Helen Holt, white who with her father, Henry Holt, a local merchant, took great pleasure in watching the execution of Reverend Reynolds, 21, who was electrocuted for the murder of Earl Thompson, near Pine Bluff. The Holt woman had no legal interest in the execution"and her lust at the sight of agony is the only motive that can be guessed to have impelled her to visit the execution. She is said to have thoroughly enjoyed the spectacle. The Rev. J. E. Knox, sentenced "Claimie Rioter," was also present. Think Sampson Confesses to Shield White Man DABLAS, TEXAS, May 7—Authorities here believe that Virgil Sampson, sentenced to die for alleged assault, has confessed to the double murder of a white woman and her daughter in order to shield the dead woman's husband, John Wadford, who has been indicted for the double murder. No motive can be assigned Sampson's confession unless it is that he, knowing he is to be executed on the assault charge, is willing to accept responsibility for the double murder and thus shield Wadford.

Smith, president the Chicago Rea: Estate board and also a leading member of the nefarious Kenwood and Hyde Park Property Owners' Gang, a resolution was passed by the real estate board when provides expansion to all of its members who sens or leases property to black people in a neighborhood inhabited by white people. Will Be Ignord Many of the republican firms will disregard this ruling it is reported, because it is not in consonance with the spirit of the Illinois law which does not uphold segregation. Such deliberations have resulted in racial friction and bombings and have not operated toward wholesome civic advancement. Black People Laugh. The black people are not perturbed but regard this freak zoning plan as a colossal joke and no attempts to frustrate racial amelioration will be taken seriously. AGED WOMAN IS BURNED TO DEATH Mrs. Elizabeth Collins, aged eighty, residing at 3800 Rhodes Ave. burned to death Wednesday afternoon about 4 'clock. Mrs. Collins was formerly of St. Louis and lived with her daughter, Mrs. Cornelia Collins. It is not yet known how she became ignited. The remains were carried to the undertaking establishment of Charles S. Jackson. Dead Hero's Wife And Child Get Carnegie Medal PITTSBURG, PA. May 7—Among the twenty-three recipients of cash awards and Carnegie medals, which were awarded here, was Samuel Davis, of Alex, Kentucky, who died in an attempt to save the life of a young white girl from drowning in the Big Sandy River, July 12, 1920. A bronze medal was given to his widow and death benefits to the amount of $50 a month, with $5 a month additional on account of her daughter. Asks White Scaffold LAKE CHARLES, La., May 7.— Joe Berry, who was to hang here yesterday for murder, requested that the scaffold in the jail yard he painted white in keeping with the white suit, shoes, tie and sox he wanted to wear for the execution. Condemned Woman Toc Heavy: Elec- cromatic Chain Moved to Jas Cell THE Chair Moved to her CITY NEW YORK CITY, May 7 —On account of the fact that Mrs. Hattie Dixon of Manhattan, weighs 200 pounds or more, and is too large to be led down the narrow winding stairs to the death room, arrangements are being made to move the electric chair to her cell for her execution, which has been set for June 13. CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, MAY 7th, 1921 Mrs. Jimmie Brown W. H. McBrown Mrs. Sylvia Springer Miss Margo Browd I. C. Cormack CANDIDATES STARTING IN $3500 RACE $1,700 Auto and Hundreds of Dollars Given Away—Nominations Must Be Made Now! Booming rapidly along on the wings of popularity, with the stamp of public approval placed upon it, with interest increasing by leaps and bounds. The Whip's $3,500.00 "Everybody Wins" Grand Prize automobile and gold campaign is rapidly becoming the chief topic of interest and conversation. Votes are being sent in by the hundreds. Every mail brings its envelopes with the 100 vote coupons clipped from the paper, being cast by friends for their favorite candidates. New nominations are being received every day, which goes to show that the public has been really convinced that The Whip is going to distribute these many prizes absolutely free—headed by that dandy $1,700.00 Dixie Flyer touring car—to its own readers and friends. Some were skeptical at first, but they now realize that The Whip is going to do just what its announcement says. Subscribers when paying up or renewing their subscriptions invariably cast their votes for their favorite candidate. Everywhere in the community—everywhere The Whip is read, intense interest is being shown in this wonderful offer, which presents the opportunity of obtaining a brand new $1,700.00 Dixie Flyer touring car simply in exchange for a little effort in spare moments. Headquarters Busy All during the past week, again, the campaign manager at The Whip office has been kept busy answering questions from men and women who call to find out if they had read the liberal offer correctly and to know the details of this gigantic gift-giving proposition. Several candidates brought with them quite a few of the 100 vote coupons. Telephone calls were frequent—so much so that the pretty (Continued on page 5.) Pistol Wound May Prove Fatal to Brooklyn Woman BROOKLYN, N. Y., May 7—Mrs. Sadie Smith, 82, 226 Fay St., is dangerously near death as the result of a pistol wound inflicted by a robber who entered her house Tuesday and fired point blank at her when she screamed aloud in response to his demands for money. Her assailant is at large. Mrs. E. Eupen Woman Protects Appeal Order Son; Is Chased Is Granted To The Into Swamp "Houston Rioters" FORT DEPOSIT, ALA., May 7.—Following her maternal instinct, Mrs Maria Ray flew to the aid of her 12 year-old son, who was being mauted brutally by T. E. Hall, white. Mrs Ray attacked Hall with a piece of iron pipe, and was successful in rescuing her boy. A mob immediately formed and chased both mother and son into a nearby swamp, whence they were subsequently captured.

Pollock signed an order last Wednesday allowing an appeal to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals in the cases of the sixty-three former soldiers of the 24th U. S. Infantry convicted of rioting in Houston, Texas, in 1917. A petition for executive clemency is also being prepared for presentation to President Harding. SEEK MOTIVE IN OKMULGEE SLAYING OKMULGEE, OKLA. May 7. Why did Zeenogia Howard kill Curtis Johnson? Was it as she sid, in self-defense, or was it because Johnson, after winning her love, was about to desert her and return to his home in Columbus, Ohio? Johnson, who was a musician employed at the Hippodrome here, was shot dead in the home of the Howard woman on Delaware St., on the night of April 25. She has been held to the district court on charges of murder. In her defense the Howard woman claims that Johnson forced his way into her home, and that she, becoming frightened, shot him. Another theory that is advanced is that she sent him to his death in a jealous rage rather than see him leave her for his home in Ohio. File Bill of Exceptions MEMPHIS. TENN., May 7.—A bill of exceptions has been filed in the case of Matthew Houston, condemned to die for the killing of Frank Daily, 5-year-old boy, here. The case will go to the Supreme Court. Read, Think and Act AILED! pt To Incite ing Charged Attempt Rioting FOCH AVOIDS MRS. BRITTEN CUNNINGLY Attempt To Incite Rioting Charged PARIS, April 28.—Marshal Foch so far has managed to escape Mrs. Fred A. Britten, the wife of a Chicago Congressman, who has arrived here with the intention of presenting to the Marshal a petition signed by 700,000 German-Americans protesting against the French' employment of the so-called "black troops" in the occupied regions. The Marshal goes to London tomorrow for the Allied conference, although Mrs. Britten did not know this until The World correspondent told her. However, she seemed resigned to the delay, saying, laughingly: "I expect to stay in Paris all summer, and M. Viviani assured my husband that I would have an audience with Marshal Foch, who, I am told, is a perfect gentleman. So I will just wait until he gets back from London." Mrs. Britten declared emphatically, despite the statement to the contrary by former Secretary of State Colby, that the French had negro troops on the Rhine, and sh, added: "A nigger is a nigger, and the American people are indignant at the choice of North Africans over white men. For the troops from Morocco are negroes just as much as are some people from Cuba and Central America with whom the Americans will not have anything to do. The North African troops have been doing terrible things in Germany, things that the civilized world ought to blush at." Then she added hastily: "But I am not pro-German; I am only pro-humility, and I have come to deliver the proof for France's own good, so that America will remain friendly with her." See Political Move Political leaders in Chicago are underneath the visit of Mrs. Britten to Paris, a clever move on the part of the Thompson Republicans. It is believed that Mrs. Britten's husband, who is a staunch Thompson man, expects to knit closely to himself the German vote in his district by this maneuver. 300 FAMILIES FLOODED OUT IN TEXARKANA TEXARKANA, TEXAS, May 7. Between 200 and 300 families of our race were forced from their homes late last week by floods which inundated the entire lowlands around Texarkana. The water rose in several cases many feet above the floors, but did not wash the houses away. Screams of the distressed ones could be heard many blocks away and work of relief was organized at once, and the marooned were rescued. No one was drowned, but damage was estimated at $25,000. GEORGIA LYNCHING TRIALS EXPLODE CAMILLA, GA, May 7.—The much heralded and far flung trial of the alleged lynchers of James Roland began blowing up here last week when M. K. Boutwell, white, the first man to be tried, was acquitted after the jury had been out ten minutes. Immediately after the trial of Boutwell, Woll Reeves, white, was to be put on trial for the same offense. LEXINGTON, KY., May 7—Eva Johnson, Helen Winchester and Mary Saunders, all under 18, are held under $300 bond each on charges of riffing the pocketets of Kenny Pitt, white, of Louisville, a horse trainer, of $200. --- --- EIGHT PAGES --- See Political Move Girls Rob Horse Trainer PRICE FIVE CENTS MILWAUKEE, WIS., May 7—His activity in the national membership drive now being carried on by the National Association of Colored People caused the arrest here Friday of Edward Thomas, head of the local branch of the association. "Stimulating Race Riot" A warrant was sworn out charging Mr. Thomas with possessing and exhibiting pictures intended to stimulate a race riot. A feature of the N. A. A. C. P. drive in Milwaukee was the exhibition of pictures depicting outrages in the South. A policeman attracted by a crowd gathered in front of the organization's headquarters, found the crowd gazing upon two pictures, one depicting the lynching of a man, and the other the burning of a young girl. Pictures Seized The policeman dispersed the crowd, seized the pictures, and carried them to the city attorney's office, followed by the hoots and jeers of the crowd. FREE BUSTER ANDERSON FROM JAIL "White slave" charges against Charles "Buster" Anderson fell through when the case against him was stricken off with leave to reinstate Saturday, on account of lack of prosecution. Great excitement was felt throughout the city when Anderson was arrested several months ago along with Mrs. Rebecca Harden, 4647 Indiana Ove., on the strength of charges concerning Virginia Bertch, a white girl, who has since been found to be a confirmed prostitute. Mrs. Harden, who was dubbed by certain local newspapers as "a society and club lady in bad," was released recently when the case against her fell through. Anderson recently voluntarily returned from Canada and surrendered to the State's Attorney. When the white girl or any of her much-advertised broken-hearted relatives failed to appear and press charges against him, the case against Anderson was stricken off "with leave to re-instate." EDITOR WARREN DIES NEW YORK CITY, May 7.—Editor Edward Warren of the Amsterdam News dropped dead here Thursday night of last week. Mr. Warren was boarding a surface car at 145th St. and Lenox Ave., when stricken. His death came as a complete shock to his many acquaintances, as he was supposed to be in good health. Heart trouble was ascribed to the cause. Funeral services were conducted Sunday afternoon from Mother of Zion Church. Inflammatory Evidence Brings New Trial AUSTIN, TEX. May 7.—The case of George McKinley Grace, from Bexar County, twice convicted and twice given the death penalty for criminal assault on a white woman at San Antonio, is again up on appeal in the Court of Criminal Appeals. The appeal was filed today and submission will not be before the latter part of May. On the first appeal of the case the judgment of the Thirty-Seventh District Court of Bexar County was reversed and the case sent back for another trial. Reversal was because of error by the trial court in permitting the State to introduce in evidence bloody bedding, the higher court holding that this was prejudicial to defendant because such evidence was offered for the purpose of inflaming the injury. On the second trial of the case this evidence was eliminated. Grace was convicted and again the death penalty was assessed. Reversal is now sought on the grounds that the trial court erred in overruling defendant's motion for change of venue UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures, In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils. Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures, In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils. Pennsylvania refuses to accept a Civil Rights Bill, which would insure the privileges of citizenship to the black people. This comes as no surprise to us, because even in Philadelphia, the "city of brotherly love," the inflammatory seed of prejudice has been well rooted and grounded. A concentrated effort to enforce the issue, however, leads us to think that at the next session of the Pennsylvania legislature that there will be a change of heart. It is conceivable to understand how the general public is misled by the subterfuges and hypocrisy of the political leaders of our race, but it is beyond us to understand how those of the press are also misled. Many editors have fallen under the sweet smell of the latest oratorical flower, to-wit: We do not seek jobs, only remedial legislation. We all know the past record of those gentlemen of the Linc Johnson and Perry Howard ilk. They seek advancement for themselves and the idea of remedial legislation is a fiction which is far from the truth. They sought "remedial legislation" in Chicago last summer, but it could not be found in the neck of a moonshine flask. When the "Home for Nurses" was bombed in Chicago last week it was hoped that the daily papers would turn on their great dynamo of propaganda and force the authorities to get to the bottom of these atrocities and track the criminals into their lair. No such thing happened. The story was played down and did not carry enough weight to be given good position. Something is rotten in Denmark. Those men in Arkansas who fought to protect their homes and property in the late Helena, Arkansas, "riots" have been again sentenced to death. Of course this judicial snobbery and travesty against justice was to be expected. Death, however, will come as no disgrace to those who fought to perpetuate "Life, Liberty and Property." Some have been heard to remark that black people should live on back streets and alleys where there will be no danger of bombing. They were in the front line trenches during the war, bought the first and last Liberty Bonds, paid the war taxes and all other taxes, and any palver about taking back seats should be scoffed at and it will. ENTERTAINER CAFE REOPENED with the same wonderful JAZZ BAND THE BEST ENTERTAINMENT IN THE CITY SPECIAL FEATURES Souvenir Matinee Every Tuesday Efternoon, 3 to 7 P.M. Weekly Feature Contests—Entertainer Cafe. INDIANA AVENUE AND 35th STREET 2 "NOSEY" SEES ALL KNOWS ALL A man in a suit pushes a door. NOSEY HAD HIS first peek into the famous or rather infamous such a stir in society circles. He sneaked in with a lady who had lost her "escort" in the last cabaret stop that she made. That she was a constant visitor was shown by the fact that Nosey was admitted over the protests of the fat lady who opened the door of the flat. Nosey never knew that there was so much speed on Calmuet Ave. before, but hugely enjoyed the pretty color scheme of the longest flat on the South Side. Violet decorations, lights, "service," cigarettes, drinks and it later turned out that one of the signs by which you are admitted to these purple shades is that you must wear purple in some form—ladies must have purple dresses and gentlemen must wear the nice purple necktie. Nosey was surprised to note the faces of the ladies and is now afraid to open his mouth for fear that some reputation may fly, but hands it to the "Violet Room"—it is the real stuff and IS select. Put on your purple necktie and try it. Find the lady "who knows" first. Seek and ye shall find her. ONE WOULD think that a great number of people are constantly traveling if one is to judge from the great number of hand bags, valises and suit cases seen in the hands of all kinds of individuals. Well, Nosey took the trouble to find out about a number of these variously styled bags and is ready to tell the world that only one out of every fifty of these people are going to catch a train. Some have books, some laundry, some have danelion greens for the home still, some have a various assortment of toilet articles which cannot be forced into the average handbag, and others have bottles wearing many crosses and seals and then others have everything down to a hand saw and monkey wrench. It all proves that colored people are not going South in large numbers, but strengthens the suspicions that they are going south with many things. You cannot always sometimes tell. SOMETIME IN THE near future that "high-flying" gentleman who has so much money is going to come to grief. Nosey asked him what was the matter with his foot, which was all bandaged up. He said that he had an automobile smashup and hurt it. He had the smashup all right, but it was caused by an injured foot that was caught in a swiftly closing door, in the "Little Flats" over east. He hurried to his auto with the injured foot and tried to run it home, but ran into a tree instead because he could not use the old left foot. So people are advised to take these explanations with a grain of salt when a bandaged limb is shown. Investigate! EVERY NIGHT there seems to be some kind of excitement on Indiana Ave. in the Moonshine Block. Last Thursday Nosey shuffled along that way trying to get home before sunrise and ran into a sidewalk conference of about eleven of Chicago's sportiest sports who were just about to go home. In the center of this group was the demure little lady of 42nd St. who treats everybody from the end of a very long spoon. Nosey could not understand why she was in such close confab with the gentlemen and eased up to the edge of the crowd. Everybody was sober and the big question was whether the little lady was going to make each and every one of the gentlemen a loan. Nosey understood from the remarks that she had won ALL of the money and had broken up the game. Then Nosey smiled and plans to wait until the next "select" social function so that he can tell the little lady out loud to "shoot! you're faded" just to see her jump. The girl must have a powerful wrist to have carried away stakes from those gentlemen, because that is part of his living. YOU WANT to watch out when you "strupt you stuff" on the stroll. Nosey was coming along in front of the Dreamland when out strolled a gentlemen with three ladies with fixen hair and blue eyes. Well, a strong arm gent who has the name of a westerner came up and proceeded to maul and beat him in the best and most approved style. The ladies fled, one stepping over his prostrate form.

THE CHICAGO WHIP the next week and returning to Chicago (Oliver) June 6. Watch here. Mother of Miss Hudlin, Grace Lyceum, was taken ill during the program last Sunday. A few moments later came notice that J. Alison Sweeney, residing at her home, sustained a broken arm same hour. However, the program preceded pleasantly, because the audience was not informed of either accident. Notice to Entrants, Contest in Oratory Owing to the coincidence that persons interested in the contest and its management, are members of the Church previously announced as place of the contest and the fact that two of the Clubs entered are from that large Church, we bow to the request from two other Clubs entered that the place be other than that specified in a previous note. This removes every aspect of favoritism and unfairness. It is agreed that after the elimination (if possible) by the winners of this contest, then the Second Division will contest at the aforementioned Church center and home. First contest, June 12th, 3 P. M., Pilgrim Temple Church, the largest auditorium practicable for this event, Rev. S. E. J. Watson, pastor. Full program appears next week. The name of Ipsilon Omega Club contestant withheld until next week. —Whin Club Editor. To the "You Know 'em" Editor To The You Know 'Em Editor: I know you know those "wild and wooly" taxicab drivers who use both the street and sidewalk for their road. Well, tell them that blowing their horn at all hours of the night and early morning was bad enough, but they ought not try to knock people off the sidewalk in their mad driving. Use the streets, and if they are not big enough, try the country roads. I know you know those ladies who live in the flat on State Street near 32nd. 'Oh, I know you know them because the flat is near the bank. Well, if you know them, please tell them when they get ready to gossip in the afternoon on the sidewalk they should clad themselves in something else besides a bathrobe and bedroom slippers. I know you know the good elder who has been sweet on one of the fair damsels of his little flock of followers. I know you must know HIM because he can be seen any night entering the alley off of Rhodes Avenue, making a short cut to the back entrance of his lady fair's. Well, tell him if he must go over there instead of going home, to lay off that home brew because it has caused one other elder to lose his sight and you know this elder likes to see sights. I know you know that "hardboiled landlord." Oh, you must know him. He would charge a rat for running across his back yard if he could catch the poor devil. Well, if you know him, tell him not to get heart disease because he cannot put women and children on the sidewalk on May first. The Emergency Rent Laws may not stand up in court and then his chance for dirty work will come. I know you know "The Peacock Lady," who will wear those pretty plumes on her hat. Well, tell her that the fat gentleman has the plume she lost and that she can stop worrying the Yellow Cab people about it. The fat man has already given it to his wife for a present to make up for being out so late that night. I know you know those State Street "night vampires" who look so much like that bird of prey. Well, tell them the city will pay them well if they mate up with the State Street "sidewalk lizzards" and keep them off the street on sunny days. I know you know the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Oh, you MUST know about that organization. Well, if you know about it, WHY haven't YOU subscribed? DO I NOW! FIELDS WRITÉS CONGRESSMAN BRITTEN I'll Pay You $5 for Your Vote Vote for HARRY MITCHELL X Be sure to cut out the above COUPON, right now, whether you need a suit or not. You can use it for $5.00 any time you need a suit, within 30 days from now—or—hand it to a friend who needs a suit, and let him save FIVE DOLLARS and more. Ask Your Friend— He Knows Harry Mitchell Editorial I Want Your Vote Because- I will pay you FIVE DOLLARS for your vote, and I am no grafter, either. Here is the idea: I want to be the most popular tailor in Chicago. I ought to be, because I am making more clothes than any other tailor in the town. Anyhow, every order taken in my store for a suit during the next 30 days will be a vote for HARRY MITCHELL. And I am perfectly willing to pay FIVE DOLLARS for every vote like that. I don't care if I don't make any money in the next 30 day. My experience shows that when I have a lot of customers I make money, BECAUSE every satisfied customer comes back for his NEXT suit and brings one or two friends with him. And I think I have the right dope. What I really want is to make a drive for 1,800 customers in the next 30 days—even if I don't make a cent off of them. Here's the system:—Cut the COUPON out of my ad. Bring it to my store. Select the best fabric. Be measured for a suit at $39, $49 or $59. I will accept your COUPON as FIVE DOLLARS CASH as part of your first payment. That means that your suit will cost you only $34, $44 or $54—and I will give you an EXTRA PAIR OF TROUSERS FREE! If you have a friend or two—bring them along. I will furnish the coupons for them.

Davis is going to get busy while the "Big Vote" days are on. Another new nomination which was sent in last week is that of Mrs. Dennis Davis. Accompanying the nomination were quite a few. An out-of-town candidate who is giving a good account of himself is Wallace Scott, of New Orleans. A voter-going talent is continued to Chicago. Rev. B. L. Rose, of La Grange, is a real competitor. Quite a few good subscription promises are reported to campaign headquarters by Miss Edna Puriocy. That's the way to go after them. From the way that her friends are helping her, there is no question but what Mrs. Puriocy is doing is a strong contender for the Dixie Flyer. New Orleans, La.

On every yearly subscription or renewal, the candidate in whose favor it is cast receives forty cents. On every two-year subscription, the cash commission is eighty cents. So the campaign simply means that every active person who is eligible to compete will be a prize winner. "Everybody Wins." To be sure, the wholesome spirit of fairness with which The Whip will distribute this vast array of gifts and the absolute guarantee of a cash prize to every active participant has brought forth many expressions of approval.

Oscar Michael's new photo play, "The Gunsalus Mystery," opened a five-day engagement at The Vendome on last Monday night. The piece is an interesting story built around a West Indian young man, who comes to America with his literary abilities, writes a book and starts out to sell them from door to door. In his travels many adventures he encounters, and finally he looms up as the prosecutor of the man who commits a murder and convicts him. Evelyn Preer works well in the production, and Dick Abranns was a real movie star. Matti Wilkes, Tatum, and Miss Harris were all good screen artists.

COLUMBUS, O., May 3.—The inaugural movement towards big baseball here which threw Joe Green's Chicago Giants and John Loyd's Buckeyes into the pit for the lid-tilting scrap of the 1921 season, succeeded in attracting more than three thousand to the scene, so that the grandstand, boxes and bleachers housed every sort of a baseball fan, running from the silk-sock-fanatic and the twill-garbred fannette on down to the boot and shoe enthusiast, many of the latter coughing up the last of the price of a day's feed in favor of the baseball thrill. The Celebrities The crowd annexed their first thrill of the day when the boss battery of the occasion was announced: Mayor Thomas pitching, and Secretary of State Harvey C. Smith, catching; the former subbing for Governor Davis, who arrived a little late. The pitching Mayor had speed, but lacked control, making a wild heave, thereby saving the State Sec. an error. However, the main show brought out the fact that the Columbus baseball team proper didn't have a thing on the State and City officials on the playing end. Among the prominent men of the Darker Race present, were the Tyler brothers, headed by the nationally known Ralph Tyler, Bill Letchford and John Newell, messenger to the Governor. "Rube" Foster was there and Doctor Howard Smith came all the way from Kansas City to be present. Dr. Smith is a member on the Board of Directors of the Columbus Club. He attends all the annual baseball confabs, is a dyed-in-the-woo baseball fan, a bright student of the game, is an all round good fellow, and has so many friends among the bal players that he can't name his favorite team. The Game The contest waxed into a pitcher's battle between the capable Britt of the Ohio gang and "Big" Taylor of the Chi crew. The Buckeye released a nifty afternoon's work and made eight of the Windy Cities heat the ozone, sending them to the bench via strike-out route. "Big" Taylor went the Ohioan four better, fanning twelve men, making the most dangerous slammers bite the dust at critical stages, while his support capered in highly sensational fashion in defense of his offering. The Windy Cities got off in front, but were soon reached. Loyd displayed a set of men that are bound to be he heard from, while the Joe Green bunch right now are flashing a grade of formidable class. Green has the most likely looking young catcher on the circuit, while Loyd trotted out a young receiver that also carved a nich for himself with Colum bus fans. His name is Ewing, and he stops up in the ninth as a pinch C. W. A. K. C. SLAD ACE 1$am Crawford, the Kansas City Morech has one of the brainst and most affective pitchers in the league.

The game was won by the Giants by Rogan. Rogan eaching only one bad inning. Drake had his tie in the first, when the Monarchs scoreder three runs. Portuondo got a life in the game.

ED GOURDIN IS WINNER IN BIG RACE Gains Place on Rain-Soaked Track Among a Large Field of Starters. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 3.—Despite unfavorable track and weather conditions records were toppled here last Saturday on the closing day of the Twenty-seventh Annual Pennsylvania Relay Carnival. Many new carnival marks were made, while more than 20,000 husky-throated individuals shouted themselves hoarse in the excitement of the sterling competition produced. In the 100-yard special the spectators were treated to a keen competition and a spectacular finish, in which Farrell, a Brooklin College spinner, finished first, but not until he had been put to a severe test, with Eddie Gourdin, Harvard, dark man in the fire of the sprint. The Colored fellow finished fourth. The time of the 100-yard sprint was 10 2/5 seconds. COLUMBUS AND CHI TIE IN 11 FRAMES, 4-4 COLUMBUS, O., May 3—After winning the opening game of the present season from John Lloyd's Buckeyes, Joe Green's Chicago Giants jumped out in the second contest on Sunday and pulled an exhibition of play that stood the spectators as well as the opposing team right on their domes. Lefty Luther of the Chicago team released a mighty creditable showing in the game, making nine of the Buckeye slammers bite the dust on strikes, while he only gave up a couple of bases on balls during the eleven innings of play. Roy Roberts, the Columbus crack moundsman, worked for the Ohio boys, and did a good days work, especially in the close places. The Ohio team trotted out a few new faces, and they displayed enough goods to warrant the belief that the Ohio club is going to make the other teams step this season. The Chicago Giants right now loom about as strong as any team in the league, and starting off at the top of the heap has given them a lot of confidence. If they hold their form they will be the dark horses in the 1921 struggle for supremacy.

May 3.—Although Detroit Creamery outfit Detroit Stars at Mack Park, Sunday afternoon, it was forced to accept the offer of a trade to the Knicks. Kuhagen toiled three innings for the Creamery. During the stay, he fanned nine batters, allowed one hit, but gave four bases, on balls, all of which resulted in runs through errors, came between the two centers, and neither batter hit. Holland and Cooper, pitching for the Stars, were accorded excellent aid, especially by Pete Wheeler and Riggins. Creamery went after runs in the ninth and secured a pair of revolts, but put down a series of interceptions.

KANSAS CITY HERE SATURDAY, SUNDAY, MONDAY Old Stars and Sparkling Youngsters Give K. C.'s a Formidable Caste The Kansas City Monarchs will engage "Rube" Foster's local champs in the latters first league scrap of the season here. The first game between these two great monsters of the diamond is carded for Saturday, and it should develop a fierce struggle. Both teams are all primed for a grueling contest, the majority of the men composing both lines having engaged in winter baseball and are right on their toes. There is a lot of feeling between these two teams, a sufficient amount to cause them to go hammer and tongs for each other, the result being a worthy show at all games for the fans. The Kansas Cities have annexed three or four men formerly of the U. S. Army, coming off the same club that produced pitcher Rogan and short stop Moore. The new acquisitions, Hawkins, Fagin and Pullin, the former two infielders, and the latter a catcher, are said to be packing much diamond prowess, and opinion has them lifting the Kansas City stock many points. The DeMoss local machine is bound to be put to a severe test, and their legion of friends believe them equal to any sort of an acid ordeal, basing their belief upon the great work of the local scrappers against all sorts in all sorts of company, climes and opposed by hostile and menacing players, as well as spectators. Three and perhaps five games should be quite enough to test out both teams goods, and the present series should prove a great conditioner for the Champions, who this month will tackle the toughest baseball clubs in the whole country, the games being scheduled at American Giants home park. PEERLESS TOM WILLIAMS REIGNS Crack City Leaguers Fall 2-0 Before Great Pitching of "Rubes" Classy Heaver Despite the chilly breezes that encompassed the arena at Schorling park last Sunday, the American Giants under the leadership of Captain DeMoss unfurled one of the classiest shows of baseball seen here in a long spell. Both teams played air-tight ball for the early rounds of the game, Spencer Heath, former Sox pitcher, holding the Colored Champs in leash, while Tom Williams proved equal to the occasion at all points of the route. Failing to make an effective attack that would bring forth a run on purely mechanical efforts, Captain DeMoss resorted to the well known Giant strategy, pushing one counter over the pan in the sixth, and repeated the dose in the seventh. The Whites changed batteries late in the game, but it availed them nothing in the face of the strong pitching effort of Williams. The City Leaguers only touched Tom's pitching goods for one lone safe blow, and that came in the last rounds of the game. Tom breezed twelve of the leaguers and displayed a brand of head work all through the contest that stamps him as the foremost pitching Ace along the league circuit.

CINCINNATI, OHIO, May 3.—In one of the best and most interesting games ever staged in the National Association of Colored Baseball, the Cincinnati Stars at Redland Field by a score of 3 to 1 the Johnson, Indianapolis, handed its second straight defeats to the Cincinnati Cuban Stars at Redland Field by a score of 3 to 1 the Johnson, the visitors, had a wide curve which he used to good advantage. Jeffries, a southpaw, who relieved him, gave a good account of himself. The score: 1910 DETROIT'S SENSATIONAL TWIRLER This is Bill Force, the Southern strike-out King. The early spring work-outs at Detroit have brought rays of sunshine to the hearts of the Wolverine fans, for in Bill Force they cite an addition to the pitching staff that spells disaster to all opponents this 1921 race. BACHARACH GIANTS OPEN AT .DETROIT BACHARACH GIANTS OPEN AT .DETROIT The most monstrous blow-off in the present season's opening will be staged at Detroit, Mich., where Dick Redding's Bacharach Giants lock horns with Manager Pete Hill's Detroit Stars. The teams do a preliminary stunt on Saturday, May 7, but the big noise of the five game series will occur Sunday, May 8. President Tenny Blount has arranged for a monster parade, and as Detroit is well supplied with Gas Carts and the like, it is estimated that more than two hundred machines will form in the line for the journey around the city and out to the baseball park. Many of the notables of both Races will take a conspicuous part in the opening ceremony; Dr. J. B. Ames, Detroit's leading physician, will hurl the first ball over the plate. The two teams should furnish a worthy opening show, as both are strong in pitching, infield and outfield material. The New York team has traveled extensively in the past four months and are said to be in rare form. They have covered the whole Eastern and Southern territory, as well as the Island of Cuba. They are carrying the greatest collection of pastimers that ever graced any club, but will meet a most worthy foe in the Detroit Stars, who right now can boast of one, if not the strongest pitching staff in the whole country. Frank Young, Dave Wyatt, and other baseball pushers will be the guests of the Detroit management in order to get first hand information on the great Eastern team which is carded to swing around the whole western circuit before heading New Yorkward.

LOS ANGELES, CA. PREACHERS IN JERSEY OPPOSE BOUT "General Effect Will Be Corrupting and Demoralizing and Concentrate Crime Wave" JERSEY CITY, N. J., May 3.—A protest against holding the Dempsey-Carpentier world championship fight, scheduled to take place on July 2 in Jersey City, has been sent to Mayor Hague and the Chamber of Commerce of that city by a committee of the Clergymen's Community Club of Jersey City. After citing six deaths, alleged to have taken place in boxing bouts in New Jersey since the Hurley boxing law went into effect three years ago, three of them in Jersey City, the protest said that, although clean athletic sports, including amateur boxing bouts, should be favored, prize fights were brutal in character and degrading in influence. "The fight will undoubtedly put Jersey City on the map with other notorious resorts in the United States," the protest read. "New Jersey is one of the few remaining States where such contests are permitted. The moral standards of the majority of our State are against such exhibitions, and will not tolerate them. As for the money to be gained, we repudiate the suggestion that Jersey City would sell her good name for a price. "We feel that the people brought to Jersey City by means of this and similar exhibitions will represent the 'bruiser' rather than the finer types of citizenship. The brutalizing effect of the coming fight is seen already among the boys of the city, and will be sure to foster juvenile delinquency. Its general effect upon the moral atmosphere and standards of the city will be corrupting and demoralizing and will concentrate in Jersey City the crime wave now sweeping over the country." TATE STARS DOWN KEYSTONE TATE STARS DOWN KEYSTONES PITTSBURGH, Pa., May 3—Two former pals for years on one of the big teams of the game, played in Saturday in the Smoky City territory and after six rounds of display of diamond strategy, the team, led by Jim Taylor of Cleveland, headed to the big score, the stones, headed by the former great pitcher, Wim.

Despite the wildness of Walker and Martin, the Pittsburgers held the good score, close score, and might have grabs the good score, but pitcher Henderson into the scrap after Case began to wobble.

This happened notwithstanding the fact that both parties were over the age of consent and the refusal of the white girl to testify against her clandestine lover. Thus a beautiful cross section of the white man's psychology is disclosed and unwillingness to take his own medicine is exposed. To appreciate the Caucasian's viewpoint it is necessary to go to the very beginning of his religion and observe how rigidly and dogmatically he has insisted that all other races adhere to principles which he himself utterly disregards. Christianity is essentially and chiefly the religion of the white races. All of the vital principles of practical Christianity can be reduced to two propositions—the Golden Rule and sex morality. It is not cogent to linger upon the white man's regard for the former for it is too well known how he disregards it when it conflicts with his material interests. Christianity is the only religion which makes sex morality solely contingent upon monogamy as opposed to polygamy. This is a point of superiority to other religions. And yet the white man, the founder and the would-be perpetuator of this altruistic creed, is one of civilization's ugliest offenders. He ruthlessly implants his inquity and immorality upon all helpless races and for his sextual lasciviousness the third and fourth generations must suffer. Upon the Island of Tahiti in the South Seas it is claimed upon good authority that the once physically superb natives are doomed to extinction; for since the advent of the white man leprosy, tuberculosis and the unspeakable contagion have made prey upon the unfortunates. Throughout the Pacific Island regions the native girls have been "Shanghaied," taken aboard Caucasian ships and when base appetites have been appeased they have been thrown to the sharks with a great gusto of Christianity. The exploits of the white man in Japan, Africa, India, the Philippines and in America are well known. The dark races have suffered sadly. Eight million mulattoes silently scoff and mutely testify to the flagrant breaches of the white man's code of Christianity. "The beauty of Israel has been slain on the high places; how the art might fallen." The white man, however, is aimlessly and unconsciously destroying himself. His own sin and hypocrisy will operate towards his ultimate undoing. These two things will inevitably result from his illicit concubinage. He will make more enemies for himself in a world already two-thirds dark and make himself ludicrous and silly before those who adhere to the true tenets of Christianity. He loses ground both with God and man. The offsprings of the white man's illicit concubinage are repudiated and rejected and mothers with whom he has consorted are subjected to prejudicial legislation. Thus the white man's principle of Christianity IS and the same time it IS NOT. Thus the concubinage of the white man perpetuates itself while the darker races throughout the world swelter and rankle under a system of supposedly advanced Christianity. But let it be remembered that he who "draws the sword dies by the sword." MOUND BAYOU, MISS.

Let the Demon Come On! KU KLUX KLAN THREATS HENRY BROWN NY Health Hints Flies may be destroyed completely by destroying their breeding places. Because of widespread distribution and exceedingly rapid reproduction the only means that will ever prove successful in a campaign to completely eradicate the common house fly must be directed towards the prevention of breeding or the destruction of the eggs and mag- exceedingly rapid reproduction the only means that will ever prove successful in a campaign to completely eradicate the common house fly must be directed towards the prevention of breeding or the destruction of the eggs and maggots. Flies on their own accord will not travel more than a few feet from the place where they breed, but they are often carried miles by the winds or by trains, or considerable distances on animals and in wagons; especially wagons used for hauling manure or garbage. Where flies are plentiful it is reasonably certain that fertile breeding material can be found within a few hundred feet. The frequent treatment or removal of manure, the proper care and frequent disposal of garbage, and the prevention of accumulations of all other filths is, therefore, necessary to entirely vanish flies. It is useless for city officials or civic organizations to start a swat and trap the fly campaign and overlook the manure piles in the stables, the frequent proper removal and disposal of manure in the streets, the cleaning of garbage and other filth from alleys and the construction of fly tight privies, because for every fly that is swatted and trapped, thousands develop in the undisturbed filth. All fly breeding places should be declared public nuisances and ordinances should be passed and enforced to cause their abatement. To prevent fly breeding every householder must exercise great care in the disposal of old accumulated waste. The garbage should be kept covered. Old rags thrown into the yard and moistened by rains accommodate the fly if no better place is available. If flies cannot eat they must die, and if they cannot find a suitable place to feed they will not have a suitable place in which to deposit their eggs. Privies not only serve as places for flies to pick up a load of germs to carry into the house, but provide food and a breeding place as well. They should be abandoned wherever possible and when other means for the disposal of human waste cannot be had, privies should be constructed that flies cannot have access to the feces and urine. A simple, safe and sure rule to remember is no filth, no flies. Manure is a favorite breeding place for flies. A one-horse stable will breed enough flies for a whole neighborhood. The development of the automobile and the decrease in the number of horses, stables and the amount of manure in city streets has greatly helped reduce the number of flies. THE CHICAGO WHIP the Demon Com KU KLUX KLAN THREATS Labor Situation Unemployment appears to be on the increase, judging from the records of the Chicago chapter of the organization, which organized its relief work December 1920, when the gradual shutdown in industry began, forcing thousands of men into the streets in search of work. The organization program to meet this emergency, promptly organized a Citizen's Relief Committee and directed its efforts to the stimulating of relief for the hungry and jobless thousands. Since January 1, 1921, it has provided 25,000 persons with work and money, 11,134 persons with porary shelter. The cold weather brought added embarrassments. Five hundred per cent of relief was given to the League to churches for distribution. In April 15,088 persons were given some form of relief, 4,841 were given shelter, and 10,247 free The seriousness of the actual job shortage is indicated in the records for the month of April, when we show that 6,490 men and 1,000 women apply for jobs, while 291 jobs were available. The Industrial Department of this organization secures work, while 291 jobs were available. The Industrial Department of this organization form temporary positions by which the men and women who apply asking only an opportunity for work may be served. Incidentally, the department has decreased the number of the city have decreased the number of their employees approximately 50 percent over last year, although unemployment is significant but be treated to the extent that practically all the relief work has been financed by the colored people, churches and other organizations more shelter and clothing. The splendid co-operation of the churches with the Urban League is shown in the following table. Y M. C. A. during the month of April; 5397 free meals have been served at Quinn Chapel; 2,514 at the Morning Star Baptist Church; 2,154 at the St. Mary's Church; 43 at A. M. E. Church and 173 at the Y M. C. A. It is expected that the families of unemployed men should feel the embarrassment of being served at the principal wage carrier. The Urban League maintains a department distinct from its Industrial Department, which attempts to adjust the income of the poor for families. One injured and thirty such families have been successfully helped. During recent weeks a very grievous response to the appeals of this organization for funds to carry on its work. One of the signal contributions was that of 10 men turned over by a group of men from the men from the wake held at the Eighth Regiment Armory. OHIO LEGISLATURE ASKS FEDERAL ACTION ON PEONAGE The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today announced the receipt of a resolution passed by the Ohio legislature and of a resolution introduced in the Pennsylvania legislature, both urging a thorough federal investigation of peonage throughout the South. Whereas, The entire country has been astounded by the revelation of peonage con- in the South.

Be it further resolved. That a copy of this resolution is forwarded to the President of the United States and to each senior and representative from Ohio.

Dear Madame: I did not receive a written notice to move and my landlord rented the flat again. I could not find another flat and he has sued me. Will I have to move? 1950 It depends on the terms of your lease. I would have to know about that before I could tell you. Employ a lawyer or state your case to the judge before whom the Dear Miss Anderson: I did not move the first of May because my landlord raised the rent ten dollars a month. He has shut off the water. Can I sue him for damages? It all depends on what your lease says. If you are a trespasser there you have no right to use the water. If he did not give you proper notice it may be that you can. Show your lease to a lawyer. Dear Madame: My husband has returned from the penitentiary where he has been for the past six years for burglary. I always understood that when a man is a convict you get a divorce from him and so I married again. Now he is going to have me put in jail for bigamy. Can he? Yes. If you married again without a divorce through the courts you have committed bigamy. You should have secured a divorce. Have your last marriage annulled and then get a divorce. Dear Mrs. Anderson: An officer came into our house the other night and stopped five friends of my husbands who were playing poker friendly among themselves. He took us to the station and had us booked for gambling. He took a bottle of whiskey that one of my roomers had on his dresser, which was a prescription from a doctor, and then threatened that he was going to take us to the Federal Court unless we paid him. My husband gave him $100 and he did not take us there, but we had to pay a fine for the poker game. Did he have a right to take the $100 for that. No. Report the matter to the Chief of Police.
