CANDIDATES HIT HOT PACE FOR BIG PRIZES MOB "OPERATES" ON DOCTOR PRICE 5 CENTS ILLEGITIMATE HEIR WINS CLAIM TO $20,000,000 ESTATE Louisiana Supreme Court Holds Child Is Entitled To Father's Wealth. VOL. III.—NO. 20 MOB ILLEGITIMAT WINS CI $20,000, Louisiana Supreme Court To Father New Orleans, La., May 14—Probably the largest single claim ever awarded in the courts of this state was won by Mrs. Lille Taylor in the Louisiana Supreme Court here last week. Mrs. Taylor comes into possession of mineral and property rights in Clahore parish valued at $20,000,000. The decision was rendered in a suit brought by Mrs. Taylor against Angeline Allen and George West, both white claimants to the property. According to the evidence offered in the case, Mrs. Taylor's father, who was white, and whose illegitimate child she is, sold the property to the Allen woman and West, but did not give them a quitclaim. The parentage of Mrs. Taylor was the chief issue in the fight. The Supreme Court finally settled the controversy by confirming Mrs. Taylor's claim that she is the child of the original owner of the property in question. CHAMBLISS CASE IS A TANGLE OF LEGAL ERRORS CHAMBLISS CASE IS A TANGLE OF LEGAL ERRORS Although Dorsey Chambliss, convicted ex-policeman, is singly lodged behind the bars, the State's Attorney's office is constantly kept in an uprort over attempts to free the ex-policeman through technical errors cropping out in the procedure. Several weeks ago Chambliss' lawyers asked his release because of a technical error in the mitten under which he was sent to the penitentiary. The supreme court picked a flaw and ruled that the application should have been in the form of a supersedeas and not a writ of habeas corpus. Now that a writ of supersedeas has been asked, the state in its turn appeared in court Monday and asked for a continuance to amend its pleadings which have been discovered faulty. COMMITS SUICIDE TO FOIL LYNCHERS COMMITS SUICIDE TO FOIL LYNCHERS ENGLAND. Ark., May 3.—Loney Dovel, a 30-year-old tenant on a farm near here, after shooting his wife to death, fled to his father's home, pursued by a mob, and killed himself with the same weapon he shot his wife with. Dovel shot his wife twice with a revolver, following a quarrel. She died instantly. A mob was instantly formed, which pursued Dovel to his father's house 20 miles away. A man approached the approach of the mob to the door of the house. Dovel shot himself dead SOUTHERN PROF. AT NARVARD RESENTS COP'S REPROOF; JAILED Boston, Mass., May 14.—When Policeman David R. Blair, of the Boston police department, reproved Prof. Jas. A. Duncan, white, assistant fellow in the department of physics at Harvard, when he stopped a young white woman in a dark doorway, the Harvard man, true to Southern instinct, resented the policeman's words, and assaulted him with a knife. Blair easily overpowered the college man and lodged him in the police station. Duncan is a Southerner from Columbia, S. C. Painless Dentists Again Throw Open Their Museum Some time ago the New York dentists located at the corner of 35th and State Sts. placed a for rent sign upon the little room on the State St. street side which they had used as a museum and 'lecture hall'. It was thought that they had come to the conclusion that they were insulting the community by using these methods to lure people into their care. Not so, having failed to rent the place they have again opened the door and jokes are told, grotesque drawing and startling pictures are placed upon exhibit in order that the poor black people who pass thereby will be tempted to engage them for dental service. Jim Crow in the Loop. These dentists are employed by the Boston Dental Corporation, who Jim crow black people in their main office at 135 State St. They are supposed to practice "painless dentistry, however many suits are now pending against them for maltreatment, burned faces and etc. Many people have been heard to remark that is was indeed galling and goading to witness this establishment located in our midst when bombs are hurled and we are forbidden to live in certain districts. It is wondered why these "painless dentists" do not take their side shows to Halsted St. Why are they brought among us? EX-GOVERNOR CATTSWANTED FOR PEONAGE TALLAHASSE, Fla., May 14—Evidence tending to show that former Governor Catts had held an ex-convicted named John H. Rodgers, sentenced from Osceola County for murder May 6, 1909, and pardoned Dec. 19, 1910, in a state of virtual penance on his farm near DeFuniak Springs, was laid last week before a committee investigating the governor's official acts. Rodgers said he paid William Hodges, white, a Tallahassee lawyer, $50.00 for his services in getting a pardon. He says that the governor told him he should not have paid the lawyer, but that the money should have gone to him (Catts), and that since he had not paid it, he would have to work a year on the Catts farm and pay $50 also. Rodgers insists that he received no pay while on the Catts farm, although Catts gave him a dollar and bought him some clothes. He says he was well fed, but his liberty of movement was stringently restricted. It is said that several whites in the community are ready to substantiate Rodgers' charges. Go to Church Sunday, Then Stage Lynching Starke, Fla., May 14.—Immediately following the benediction at a local white church here Sunday night, most of the congregation repaired to the Bradford county jail, which they broke into, and, taking Samuel Ballinger charged with murder, lynched him CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, MAY 14th, 1921 Miss Bessie Conn Miss Edwina Cole Mrs. T. A. Fountain Prof. James A. Mundy Miss Pauline Clark Mrs. Mae Burks Miss Nell Calloway LIBELED PASTOR TO SUE SCANDAL MONGERS Before an overflow audience at Bethel A. M. E. Church, Sunday morning, rumors attacking the character of the Rev. S. L. Birt, pastor, were branded as malicious lies, circulated for the purpose of hampering his work here. The rumors were based upon the arrest on April 6 of the Rev. J. D. Costan, Robert Lewis, 3011 Cottage Grove avenue, and Chas. Wooden, 92nd street and Prairie avenue. The Rev. Birt met them for a business appointment at 35th street and Michigan avenue. Just as he joined them, they were arrested upon suspicion. A pair of brass knuckles was found on Wooden. Dr Birt's adherents declare that his activity in securing the release of the arrested men gave his enemies an opportunity to attack him, and connect him with the episode. When the rumors grew beyond proportion to the facts, the Keystone Detective Agency was retained to get to the bottom of the affair, and succeeded in discovering who, they say, were the authors of the statements made. In an interview with S. A. Brusseaux, he refused to divulge their names, but stated that they would be bared in court proceedings which the Rev. Birt will institute at once. CANNON MADE COLLECTOR OF U. S. REVENUE President Harding has nominated John C. Cannon to be collector of internal revenue for the First Illinois District. The confirmation will probably be made this week, after which Mr. Cannon will take over the duties of Henry W. Mager, the present incumbent. Mr. Cannon is a "Brundage" Republican, and has a long record for fairness to our people.

HOTEL MAN'S SUICIDE PUZZLES POLICE Birmingham, Ala., May 14.—John Wallace, a waiter at the Tudwiler Hotel, of this city, upset police statistics to the effect that our people are the most evenly balanced race on earth by committing suicide by shooting himself through the head after seriously wounding his wife. Wallace and his wife are said to have been severely wounded, which he seriously wounded her, then walked into the next room and blew out his own brains.

EIGHT PAGES DOG CLANDESTI AFFAIR WRATH Results In Seizure of House Handled By "You're Black, So I Ar est You Without a Warrant" MEMPHIS, Tenn., May 14. — of the color of your skin is dark, no warrant is necessary for your arrest, according to a declaration made by J. R. Williams, white, a deputy collector, who attempted to arrest Dr. Dealine, at his office, 180 Beale St., last week. It appears that the doctor was unable to find a receipt for payment for a battery for his automobile. When Williams attempted to make an arrest, and the doctor asked to see the warrant, Williams is said to have declared that exhibition of the warrant was not necessary in the case of a "d...d n...r." In the fight which ensued, Williams shot at the doctor, and beat him over the head with his pistol. Police reserves coming to the white man's aid prevented further trouble. Feeling here is tense as a result of the situation. ANTI-BOMBING BILL PASSES LEGISLATURE Springfield, Ill., May 14. The Illinois State Legislature put the question of halting bomb-throwing in Chicago squarely up to the law enforcement agencies of the city of Chicago, when it unanimously passed the bill introduced by Representative Adelbert H. Roberts, of the Third Senatorial District. The voting stood 146-0, there being 7 votes. The bill reads as follows: For an Act to punish persons for destroying property, or inflicting injury to persons, by means of any bomb, dynamite or other explosive, or by means of any other instrument or implement. Section 1. Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois, represented in the General Assembly: Whoever shall willfully and maliciously destroy, damage, damage or deface any building used or designed for human occupancy, or shall attempt so to do, by means of any bomb, dynamite or other explosive, or by means of any instrument or implement, shall be imprisoned in the penitentiary for a period of not less than one year nor more than twenty years. Section 2. Whoever shall willfully and maliciously destroy, damage, injure or deface any building used or designed for human occupancy, or shall attempt so to do, by means of any bomb, dynamite or other explosive, or by means of any instrument or implement, and thereby shall injure any human being, whether such human be an inmate of such structure or otherwise, shall be imprisoned in the penitentiary for a period of not less than one year nor more than twenty-five years. Section 3. Whoever shall stand by and aid or abet, or assist, or whoever, not being present, aiding, abetting or assisting, shall advise, encourage aid or abet the perpetration of such willful and malicious act, shall be considered as principal and shall be punished accordingly. --- PRICE FIVE CENTS CTOR THE LOVE AROUSES OF TEXANS ton Doctor, Who Is Brutally Masked Mob. By a Staff Correspondent Houston, Texas, May 14.—One of the most brazen and hellish acts recorded in the annals of American barbarism occurred there Sunday morning of last week, when Dr. J. L. Cockrell, a dentist, with offices at 409% Milam street, was set upon by a mob of whites, taken into the country on the outskirts of the city, and unsexed. Dr. Cockrell was recently arrested and fined $1,020 on a charge involving him with a well known white woman. After his release upon payment of the fine, the maximum under the law in Texas for such an offense, the dentist resumed his practice. He enjoyed a very lucrative practice, having patients of both races. Gangsters Halt Car Sunday morning, May 1, while en route to church with his family and brother, Dr. W. H. Cochrell of Brenham, Texas, an automobile containing a crowd of whites, including several Italians and a licensed physician, drove up besides the doctor's car and commanded his wife, who was at the steering wheel, to stop the car. When the dentist replied that they had no time to stop, a number of these "mysterious" mobbocrats leaped upon the running board of his car and with drawn revolvers ordered the dentist out, while the others felled his visiting brother with a blow from behind. Attemp. 4 Resistance In reaching for his pistol, which apparently was in the auto pocket, the dentist failed to grasp it in time to shoot his attackers, and after they had forcibly thrown him into their car and sped away the weapon was found lying on the ground beside the car. Rendered Sterile The carload of gangsters, composed of some of the leading citizens of the community, was met in the country by two additional cars, according to Dr. Cockrell's statement, and he was carried to Pearland, in an adjacent county, where ether was administered to him and an operation performed to render him sterile. After performing their diabolical operation they left him in a little old shack and phoned to Houston for an ambulance to come and get him. He was brought back to the city and placed in the St. Joseph Infirmary, but his family spigged him away and placed him in a hospital. The officer in the infirmary stated that the brutal operation was a failure, while reports reaching the car of The Whip representative state that he is getting along nicely. Race Riots Feared When news of the abduction reached the ears of the people, the whites got alarmed and rushed for ammunition stores, charging that the colored people were going to "raise hell." As soon as the kidnapping occurred the police and constabulary departments were notified, but no earnest efforts were put forward to even try to ascertain the identity of the gangsters. Mayor Oscar Holcombe, recently inducted into office, issued a strong proclamation appealing for law and order and stated that if the present police department did not break up such lawless bands he would "fire" the entire force and get a new one. Refuse to Offer Reward He also suggested the offering of a $500 reward for each of the perpetrators of the horrible crime, but City Commissioners Anderson and Halverton objected to such rewards, stating that it would be an admission that the law had completely broken down. This was the fourth kidnapping of its kind to occur in Houston in the last few months, the first three victims being white men. The white citizens are split into three distinct camps—those who oppose openly such practices, those who endeavor to compromise the issue, and those who favor it and practice it. In the meantime the city continues to sit upon dynamite. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures, In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils. In a recent issue of the New York Daily News, a new publication owned and controlled by the Chicago Tribune, it is stated that "American" means all races but the black and yellow. The editor overlooks the construction that the courts place upon citizenship and fails to recognize the valiant martial services that black and yellow people performed for Old Glory. If the black man in the United States is not an American? What is he then? When a committee of ministers and representative black citizens attempted to interview the Mayor of Chicago relative to the bombing outrages they were denied an audience and the secretary was by no means cordial and respectful. It would not be a surprise to us if the mayor's machine would strike a snag at the next election and many black people have already avowed their intention to withdraw their support. Secretary of Navy, Denby, has come out with the statement that conditions in Haiti have been overdrawn and that the marines have committed no such depredations there as they are accused of. We cannot appreciate the Secretary's emphatic and dogmatic denial of the charges when first hand evidence has been placed before the civilized world to support them. It is hoped that Mr. Denby will himself investigate and then form conclusions. Texas has again stained her fingers. This time a prominent dentist was emasculated because of a white woman's love. The course of true love indeed does not run smoothly among the Texan barbarians, but forbidden fruit is always the sweetest, thus the fall of Adam, creation's federal head. The bloody knife of Texas cannot cut natural inclinations. Perry Howard and Henry Lincoln Johnson have succeeded in inveigling the women in their money raising scheme and the "Beggar's Gift Bureau" which they have set up in Washington is receiving funds from the duped and beguiled female mendicants. If they were aware of the handling of the funds of the Campaign Committee in Chicago last summer they would wash their hands and have nothing to do with these carpet baggers. 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 O NOSEY WAS heaving his streamline body homeward the other night when his watchful eye was attracted by a huddled figure in the vestibule of, that brownstone apartment house in the 33rd block on Calumet Avenue. Nosey cautiously approached the man and shook his shoulder to make sure that he was still "among us mortals." The tastily dressed and perfumed one arose with a start and rubbed his eyes. Nosey was curiously been asleep and left him. Curiously compelled Nosey to watch him from the sidewalk and saw him ring the bell on the letter box and begin talking. When the perfumed one had finished Nosey took a hand at the speaking tube to the flat above and then he found out that this was the only means of communication left open to lovers as long as hubby and the telephone were in the same room. Necessity is the mother of invention and love will find a way when the speaking tube opens in the kitchen. ONLY THREE people knew how well taken in was one of Chicago's cabaret hounds and they were the "lady in blue," the man in question and Nosey. The lady appeared in the cabaret in her tight-fitting "Alice Blue Gown" and the long hound of the cabaret shot a "hand grenade" at her, she opened and read. When he sat at her table she let the mouth of a chamois bag open, revealing ten unset diamonds. The "hound's" eyes opened wide and he began writing "prescriptions" and his buddie had them filled. The "lady in blue" drank, so did the hound. He ordered eats and she ate. He ordered more drinks and she drank. He or- dered a taxi and they rode to the next all-night cabaret and by two in the morning the hound was groggy, but the lady in blue was only sprightly. The hound borrowed money to keep the drinks going while he watched the little chamois bag. Three o'clock found him dead to the world—the "lady in blue" with the luring little bag gone. Nosey followed the whole drama and decided that the "wise guys" are the only real dummies. SELDOM IS Nosey taken for "the law," but last Saturday night as he entered "Lovejoy" Apartments on Indiana Avenue, he almost bumped into a little society girl who was timidly ringing the bell of the third flat rear. Nosey's coat was open, revealing his reporter's star. The little girl caught a glimpse of it, flushed and hesitatingly said, "Oh, of course," and when the doctor who told me she lived here." Nosey replied to her nervous explanation by telling her that this was not the night for raids, but suggested that she stay at home to-morrow night. She left hurriedly, leaving Nosey laughing at the novice in her first night's performance. Nosey's dope about the raids proved true, for it did happen the next night, and now the little girl can send her thanks to The Whip's office instead of the police station. EVERY SATURDAY night Nosey wanders the streets until almost the crack of day, and last Saturday night convinced him that many of the ladies in Peek-a-boo Row market very late—that is—they are late getting home with their purchases. Nosey counted seven of the good and well-known housewives who did not get back until after two o'clock. Nosey snooped around to find out what all the delay in delivery was about and found it at the corner of 37th and Calumet—Dame Gossip had all of the traffic blocked and every one was afraid to leave because they hated the idea of getting "panned," like all the others who had gone on before. YOU NEED NEVER be surprised if you see a tall man with long black hair who always carries a small black bag, throwing stones at little dogs, particularly pet dogs, in the street. He has sworn an eternal vengeance upon all pet dogs. It only dates back to last Thursday night, when an innocent little pup persisted in barking and sniffing at the closed clothes closet in one of the Baby Doll Apartments. The man got a black eye on account of that little pup, so let him try and get even, because Nosey knows that those little curly dogs are always doing something that they shouldn't do. Let the tall man with the black hair get his vengeance.

He ignored the suit, realizing the fact that only a man's equal can insult him. Some members of the opposition don't take defeat gracefully. They are simply taking a dose of the medicine they have been given. They have moved out if we disliked the actions of the party, so we passed this saying on if you don't like what the Equal Rights party is yet to out. Cheer leaders, the worse Mr. Ed.

BABER MAKES STATEMENT. ```markdown ``` Pastor of New Trinity M. E. Church 3011 Prairie Ave. The situation Thursday night which resulted in the police entering the church, causing confusion, was caused by the malicious action of certain enemies of the church. Trinity has been taking care of the unemployed men. In the last six weeks we have furnished sleeping quarters for over three thousand. We have served more than five thousand meals and we have given out one hundred and twenty-five suits of clothes and two hundred suits of underwear. In the last two weeks, beginning April 19th, we have received supplies direct from Swift Packing Company and thirty-seven dollars from the Urban League. These men received their support and clothing prior to this by contributions from members of the church and neighborhood grocery stores. Mr. J. L. Johnson, who was placed in charge of the men, did noble work and rendered sacrificial service with two hundred twenty men, some nights sleeping in the room. It is to be expected that some immoral and vicious characters would be in the crowd, but as soon as the evidence was given concerning any one, they would be expelled. The police department, instead of keeping the unemployed men and protecting us as they ought, would send them to New Trinity Church. Had we not kept these men they would have been compelled to walk the streets, treating them with men they thereby being our citizens to possible lawlessness and, without question an intense wave of crime. We are thankful that we have had no more trouble. It was expected by the parties who caused the trouble that Trinity Church would be given a black eye, but Sunday we had our largest attendance and took in more members than ever. We are willing to have the work of Trinity Church investigated in a Christian way. We are new with a struggling membership, but the church has done more to assist the poorer and needy than any other church on the South Side. We feel as pastor and members that we have the right to ask the co-operation of our best citizens in the program we have outlined for the future. Thanking you for kindness and sup port in the past, we solicit your ad vice and wholesome criticism at al times. Respectfully yours, REV. G. W. BABER, Pastor New Trinity M. E. Church Bethel Beacon Lights Bethel Beacon Lights on last Thursday, their regular meeting evening held a very interesting business meeting. Every one present went home with something new in parliamentary law. The Rev Dr. Bert, our pastor, being the prominent present. Again we extend to all our warm invitation.

MILLIONS IN MOVIES "SPORT OF THE GODS" "SPORT OF THE GODS" At the States Theatre, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, May 9-16. "The Sport of the Gods" is a story of every-day life, of life as we find it in reality, but never before depicted on the screen nor interpreted on the stage. With the daring born of a courageous spirit, Paul Laurence Dunbar has dipped his pen into a phase of life that is all too well-known to most of us and brought forth characters and incidents that make us smile and weep, thrill us to the core and tug at our heart-strings. The story deals with a man whose fidelity and loyalty was rewarded by being thrown into prison for the crime of another. His wife, son and daughter, rather than suffer the humiliation and disgrace brought upon their innocent heads by living among their friends in old Virginia, move to New York, that vast desert of humanity where souls are tossed and driven in the great monsoon of human struggle. The son falls in with evil companions and the daughter's character is placed in jeopardy as a singer in an underworld cabaret. The mother, having been convinced that a penitentiary sentence is the same as a divorce, is persuaded to marry a man who has schemed to get her money. The husband is finally released from jail after the real criminal had confessed and goes on to New York to join his family, only to find his wife had married another. It is then that real complications arise and many thrilling scenes take place, all of which are wonderfully and interesting told in the picture. Suffice to say that all works out happily in the end. ..... With the Actors. Irwin C. Miller's Chocolate Brown Company, opened their initial engagement at The Vandette Theatre, Detroit, on May 9th.

By Dave Wyatt Detroit, Mich., May 10.—Great interest is being revealed here as the first intersectional baseball scrap swings into the 1921 race. The Bacharach Giants, headed by "Cannon Ball" Redding, made their first Western stand here Saturday, and absorbed a licking at the hands of Pete Hill's Detroit Stars. There was much heavy slugging, flashy playing and such an open show of real hustle and fight that the fans were forced to their feet time and time again on the look for a spirited fistic encounter, so carnest, so furious and fiery did the players of the two teams go about the order of the day's play. Sunday Demonstration That baseball interest is at fever heat in Detroit was clearly demonstrated upon Sunday, when more than nine thousand persons choaked all entrances to the playing field and whooped up for the good old game in a highly spirited and most deafening manner. Aside from the game, the most impressive feature of the afternoon's event was the orderly manner in which the euthused devotees of the game entered, the park. At the first league games last year the Detroit Stars' home suffered no small amount of damage in trying to house a large audience of patrons, many having their nerves raging at high pitch over their long stand in the endless lines at the ticket windows. There was no disorder whatever this time, and the management established a precedent. The latter has watched the action in handling large crowds for many years throughout all sections of the country, and we never witnessed the spectacle of such a large crowd being put into such a small park without delay or friction such as was done at Detroit. Extreme Popularity A parade is not an easy accomplishment in many cities, no matter what the occasion. The Detroit Stars' management strung out an endless chain of gasoline charriots and a thirty-piece band, whirring through many of the main streets of the city, led by motorcops, and followed by hundreds of foot with all sorts of noise-making devices, and it was on the Sabbath day. Tenny Blount, president and owner of the Detroit Stars, gave the Negro National League a sort of a prosperous cast by heading the parade with his new $7,000 Marmon car, the occupants couched therein being Dr. J. B Ames, Detroit's leading physician and orator; John Connors, treasurer of the New York Bacharach Giants; Frank Young, sporting editor of the Chicago Defender; Dave Wyatt, public man of the league, and John Tenney Blount. Machines containing the ball clubs and many civic bodies of Detroit and Canadian well wishers of the league followed in the line and in the baseball park. A large floral design on the players' plant, center of the playing field, the two teams and many citizens formed in a semi-circle around the design, a picture was taken of the scene; then Dr. Ames belched forth with a world of well chosen and encouraging oratory; thereby sending the athletes off to a good start. The Doctor also threw the first ball over the plate. ST. LOUIS GIANTS TRIM ST. LOUIS, Mo. 7-10-19 Louis Giants won the opening game of their with the Chicago Giants by a 9- to 0 score. The Giants scored four runs in the first on the field, Kendrick Kennard, Jimmy Kimmel, and Wickware's wild throw. Luther, who followed Wickware on the mound, was also treated roughly, the Giants finding his delivery to the Windy City boys to three hits and returned the Windy City boys to three hits and returned opposite order in the ninth inning. Only one of the Chicago players reached second base. Brooks, with three out of four, led the hitters. SCORE BY INNINGS.

They can hit, field, run bases, are full of pep and fight and carry a fierce battle at all times to all opponents. Redding is in the best form of his long carreer. K. C.'S NIP FOSTER'S GANG SUNDAY Army Recruit Runs True to Form While Local Men Blow in the Heat of a Fierce Battle By Captain James H. Smith One of the largest crowds in the history of Schorling's Park was out Sunday and saw the American Giants go down, in defeat before the mastery pitching of Rogan, late of the 25th U. S. Infantry, and at present with the Kansas City Monarchs. Tom Johnson of the Giants, although a trifle wild, held his opponents to two bits, the three runs made by the Monarchs being the result of errors on the part of himself and team mates the Giants lone run being made on a wild throw to first base by Rogan. The Monarchs look to be much stronger than last season and will be up there fighting hard for the pennant, as they have the pitchers to stop opposing batters and several good hitters who will be heard from this season. The Giants were a little off form in their fielding and base running, Gardner spoiling a fine opening in the ninth inning with two on and no outs by being picked off second with a throw from Rogan when it looked like a possible tie or maybe a win for the Giants. The Bacharach Giants of New York City will be here next Sunday and "Cannon Ball" Redding will attempt to regain the laurels he lost while sojourning in these parts last years.

The Giants took an early lead, scoring three runs in each of the second and third innings. Torrentite of the Giants, and Donaldson of the Monarchs each made three hits.

KANSAS CITY GOOSE EGGED 2 TO 0 Heavy-slugging Westerners All Passe Before Dave Brown's Wicked Hurling The American Giants got away to an auspicious start in their first league game of the present season. The form displayed by the Foster crew resulted in a blank for the Kansas Monarchs with a narrow winning margin for the victors of 2-0, just as good as a thousand in the good old national game. The acknowledged merciless batting Westerners were as so much clay in the hands of the moulder in the face of the great pitching exhibition unfurled by "Lefty" Brown. One lone bingle rolled to safety from the bats of the many Monarchs who walked up to face the offering of the peerless Brown. "King" Currie, undoubtedly one of the very best pitchers in the game today, unfortunately drew the turn to oppose the great Giant heaver, and while on the loser's end, he deserves a world of credit; it was not his fault, his mates just couldn't hit. As it was, the local champions only got to Currie for four safe blows, but they proved quite enough, with crafty maneuvering along other lines to turn the tide. The game was a battle of pitchers, and Short-stop Moore, of the visitors, was the only one on the defense who had a chance at the calcium glove, he worked himself right to the center of the action when he leaped high into the pit and speared a scorer off a Giant bat, throwing a great thrill into the large gathering fans. The first game has the Monarchs looking great, and they are bound to prove troublesome at all points touched on their present trip. The score: BUCKEYES BEAT A. B. C.S. FOR SECOND TIME INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. May 9—The A. B. Cs fell again before April 6, to 3, through inability to hit Roberts and loose work in the local infield. The youngsters in the A. B. C. biner defense went cement to the infield, with a fifth frame, when the Ottians scored three runs and seemed to be trying to give the pitcher good advice, watch the grandstand and play second base. But he was a third baseman and the chief pitcher, who one covered second on a throw from the outfield. It was simply a case of a young infield bowling up and the Columbus team took advantage of the situation, winning. McClure went up with the rest in the fifth, and retired in favor of Browne, who managed to hold the enemy at bay after the big until the ninth, when they scored another. The locals scored three in the seventh, the two in the eighth and Roberts taverned. In this frame with Jefferson as the target, the result of a hit and a walk, Mackey tripped scoring, the two and came in himself when he tried to pass. The sacker helped extinguish the fireworks by trying to paler the keystone with nobody out. The manager's shortstop's play on a ball hit to his right. He dived for the pellet with his bare hand and came up in time to make a force second. It was a wonderful stop. Score: A. B. C. s .. 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 0 0 1- Columbus .. 0 0 0 2 3 0 3 0 0 1- THE CHICAGO WHIP The Buckeye Leader ```markdown ``` JOHN LOYD The wonderful playing of short stop Loyd has instilled a winning spirit into the men under his tutelage. The Columbus team, new to the circuit, and carry many new faces to the fans, have jumped right into the fray thereby establishing a world of confidence in their ability to more than hold their own with best teams in the country. NEW YORK PLAYS CHICAGO SUNDAY American Giants Will Undergo a Severe Test of Their Prowess When the Cocky Western Team Unfurl Their Wares Here These are great days for Schorling Park fandom, for ere this month passes all the greatest baseball machines in the Negro National League will have shown here and an excellent line on the class, of baseball goods our local champions are packing will be positively revealed. The present line-up of the Bacharach Giants are a difficult assignment for any baseball team to tackle. Aside from an outfield considered the best in the country, they have an infield that, were they of the other race, would compare in dollars to the value once placed upon the famous Connie Mack inner defense of some years ago. In Rojo, the Cuban catcher, the fans will lamp a flashy performer, one who is full of fire and fight and trying all the time. He handles the delivery of a set of boxmen that are hard to match, a staff running from the first stringer on down to the last on the list that cannot possibly be excelled. The pitchers are Redding, "String Beans" Williams, Treadwell, "Red" Ryan and "Leity" Harvey. Barber Shively and Brown make up a most formidable set of outpostmen. Thirdbaseman Marcelles should be the center of attraction, for he is acknowledged to be in a class by himself as a fielder, buster and strategist. Redding is leader of the team, and he has his men full of fire and sizzling all the time. This team gave "Rube" Foster's men the battle of their lives last fall, finishing but one game shy of the Chicagoans, so they come here with blood in their eyes, prepared for dark deeds, which assures the fans of a fight Sunday that will prove a rare, rare treat. This Sunday show is the only one that New York team are carded to make here, so all that desire to see the great scrap should get out to the box office early. The gates open early and the game will start about 3:30, at Thirty-ninth and Wentworth avenue. A. B. C.S COME BACK STRONG A. A, B.

When the call of "All aboard!" rang through the Dearborn Station, Friday evening, May 6, at 9 P. M., the stage was set for the greatest pleasure trip ever undertaken by our race. Before going into details, it is fitting that I should acquaint the readers with just what this train consisted of. First, I found a 60-foot baggage car fitted up for a refreshment room and dance hall; next, one of the finest dining cars on the Monon; next, three solid steel Pullman sleepers, one compartment car and an observation sleeper that was in charge of Carter Hayes and his especially invited guests—truly the most complete special train ever leaving Chicago. Before we had reached 63d street the party was one of bilarity and merriment. Some adjourned to the baggage car, where the Watson Alco Jazz Band held sway; others played cards, while others chose the observation end for sight-seeing. In the wee small hours everyone retired to their respective rooms. Upon arriving at Louisville at 7:50 A. M., Saturday, we were met at the depot by 5,000 of our Kentucky brethren to greet us with open arms. In fact, the Mayor had detailed a cordon of police to keep the crowds back. The only disappointment we not here was that the Community Center Band failed to meet us, due to a misunderstanding as to the time of our arrival, according to Dr. M. A. Blackburn. However, we were escorted to Len Haley's, where we spent the entire forenoon before proceeding to the track. I shall not describe the Derby, etc., as the readers have been fully acquainted in other columns, but will say I was pleased to note that we had one colored jockey riding a horse entered by a colored owner in the Derby. He failed to finish in the money, but I had my usual $2 bet on him. After the races were over the party split up in various groups and made the rounds of all places of amusement the Pioneer colors being conspicuous everywhere. At the Pythian Temple ball a waltz contest was held between the Alco Club No. 2 of Chicago and the Alco Club No. 1 of Louisville. The judges were Casey Lewis, Isador Schoon and C. R. McFarland, and gave the honors to Louisville. At 4 o'clock we left the Blue Grass State on our return trip. Breakfast was served at 9 o'clock and then the live ones visited the quarters of the Pekin car, where we danced and were entertained by Messrs, Justine McKinney and Miss Lethia Hill. Those making the trip were: First I will name the Big Three of the trip — Col. Cowan, Alderman L. B. Anderson and Chas, Jackson, and what makes them big is the fact that, as big as they are, they are willing to mingle with the little fellow and still feel at home.

CS ON SHORT END OF SCORE IN OPENING 7 NOW PLANNING TO JIM-CROW BOXING GAME (Chicago Herald-Examiner). Milwaukee, May 10.—The National Boxing Association is working out a plan whereby Negro boxers will have championships of their own. Following a mail vote taken among members it has been decided to arrange for championship bouts among the leaders of the race, the winner in each division to be entitled to the rank of champion. President Walter H. Liginger believes that this will prove a great help to the Negro boxer who, in many states, is practically forbidden to take part in a boxing bout in public. The Wisconsin boxing law does not permit of mixed fights, and only once since the law went into force in 1913 have Negro boxers appeared in a ring. That was during the war, when Sam Langford and Jeff Clark boxed at a war stamp benefit. If the champion is, the white class sees fit to challenge the winner in the black division, or vice versa, the association will place no barriers in front of them, but, as there are few states where these bouts can now be staged, the probability of their taking place is negligible. "The association members, after many discussions, hit upon the new system as the best. Hereafter, championship bouts may be billed in the black and white classes. As there are no recognized champions in the black division right now, these will have to be fought for." FIVE HOME RUNS FEATURE CONTEST Detroit Stars Defeat Bacharachs in First of Series.

Should he entirely big faith of the black voters will be a willing to be further deceived and du Five Cent Fares and Bombs. Unless this newspaper is capable and willing to serve humanity, it is not fit to be published. In order to serve, however, it is necessary that evil be attacked, crime exposed and truth disseminated. In some instances courage and plenty of it is needed to combat evil, exterminate crime and establish truth. If the peace, quietude and even the lives of Chicago's black citizens are to be intimidated and imperiled, while we remain silent, we would be cowards and unfit to formulate public opinion. This, however, is not the case. We have been "watchfully waiting" for Mayor Thompson and his alleged "human rights" administration to put an end to the bombs which demolish our homes and strike terror into the hearts of our women. We have waited, if not for a cessation of bomb hostilities, then at least for a conscientious attempt to apprehend the malfactors and their prompters. We have waited through sultry summers, while autumnal shadows played upon our doors, during the chilly blasts and fitful gusts of wintry winds and even while springtime broke cheerfully upon us. We have waited, but the Mayor, William Hale Thompson, has only yelped something about five cent fares and nothing has been done. He shrieked "five cent fares" while our property was blown into smithereens, while our sleeping babes have been torpedoed from their mothers' arms. Mayor Thompson, Big Bill, meekly and humbly quaked "five cent fares." Mayor Thompson is the favorite among the black people of Chicago. He has virtually ridden into office upon their backs. They exult with jubilance when bombastic soap box orators call his name. They are heard to cry, "Thompson is our friend." Of course, upon the outskirts of these impromptu gatherings, some sages and sophists are seen and heard, drooping their heads and mumbling out, "Oh, what fools we mortals be." And indeed we are fools to worship and idolize those who heed us not in our distress and mock us with the all-healing bunk salve of "five cent fares." What do we care about "five cent fares" while the fundamental principles of American liberty are ruthlessly disregarded? What do we care about a three cent surcharge while assassins seek to give us a free ride into the land of nevermore? We want security and protection by the administration of Mayor Thompson, for his political machine controls the city, the county, the state and the governorship. We voted him into office and when his enemies were legion, we stood steadfast. The Mayor's memory cannot be so slippery and well does he remember it. We pay taxes on millions of dollars of property. We contribute our quota to spiritual, civic and moral uplift. Statistics prove that we do not depreciate the intrinsic value of properties in the so-called "barred zone of residences." We have earned both by sweat and blood the right to acquire property wherever we choose. No reservations in deeds, or "easements running with land" can be found to prevent our lawful entry. We query how it lies in the mouths of creatures of flesh and blood to describe the metes and bounds in which we should abide? We are no longer slaves nor serfs. Mayor Thompson knows by the constituted authority invested in him that it is his duty to protect and defend us in this our hour of need. "By their works shall ye know them." It is true that Mayor Thompson has appointed certain black men to positions of importance by virtue of their political influence, however, and we do not intend to overlook the signal honor that has been accorded our Edward H. Wright, traction counsel and Louis B. Anderson, floor leader in the City Council. The positions which the Mayor has conferred are not overlooked. But how has this benefited the 160,000 "censored souls" who voted him into office? What direct good do they accrue. Wright is supinely silent and Anderson evidently considers the bombing of his kind a colossal joke, for that is his specialty in the City Council—cracking jokes and provoking laughter. The City Council laughs at the "floor leader's" jokes while the poor black people who put him into office toss in troubled slumber with nightmares of bursting bombs. If Mayor Thompson wishes to continue in the good graces of his thousands of black friends, let him take a firm stand against the bombing atrocities. The "buck has been passed" too long and the voters are getting wary. When the Lusitania was torpedoed, Woodrow Wilson quit quibbling and declared war. Now while our land ships are being torpedoed, Mayor Thompson! Uuleash the dogs of war! If bank bandits, highwaymen, burglars and footpads as well as morons and murderers can be captured and if the administration is willing to throw its dragnet and cordon around these offenders, why shouldn't equal determination put an ending to the bombing of our homes? The organizations which have issued propaganda and veiled threats are matters of public record and are notoriously known. At least a clue is obvious and amateur sleuths could easily pick up the trail. Let Mayor Thompson stable his good horse, "Five Cent Fares" for a while. Let him send his good jockeys, Edward Wright and Louis Anderson, into the paddock and take up a new steed. Let him name this new steed, "Catch the Bombers" and he will no doubt ride into another victory. Should he entirely ignore this patent evil the quavering faith of the black voters will be entirely shattered, for they are unwilling to be further deceived and duped.

It has been the devout intention of the Chicago Whip to give its readers a paper that is not reprehensible and instead of being ashamed to open and read it anywhere they should feel proud to spread its pages. This has been made possible by the discriminatory policy of the advertising department which refuses to accept business from quacks who misrepresent and deceive the public. The advertisement manager further refuses to accept objectionable cuts from beauty producers and thereby the present general appearance of the Whip has been accomplished.

Legal Hints To Women Dear Miss Anderson: I had a young man arrested for being the father of my girls child — he was married and could not marry her. He was ordered to pay her $1,100 and as he had no money he was sent being the father of my girl's child — he was married and could not marry her. He was ordered to pay her $1,100 and as he had no money he was sent to the county jail. If he stays there six months can we get anything when he gets out? Yes, it is still a debt he owes, civilly. If he ever has worth while, you have a judgment against him. Dear Madame: My mother died leaving a will in which she did not mention a sister of hers and now this sister is trying to have the broken in the Probate Court. Can she get anything of what was left? Hardly; it depends upon the circumstances under which the will was made. I have written to my wife every week for the past year and a half in Massachusetts where she resides and asked her to come here to live with me. I cannot get a job there and so came on to Chicago and she promised to come but altho I have sent her money three times she keeps it and promises to come later on. I have furnished a nice home here for her but in her last letter she said she would come next Christmas. Can I get a divorce? Yes, after you have been separated two years. Dear Madame: My husband and I have been buying a house together and now I want to get a divorce from him; he has not done any work for the last year to speak of and I have been keeping up the payments. Can he come in for any of the home? Yes, his share after your rights have been determined. Dear Miss Anderson: My father has been living with me for the past ten years but for the past year he has been very disagreeable and nasty so that we could hardly stay in the house with him and I had to put him out; now he is sick and some friends have threatened to make us take him in again. Can I be forced to do that? Most assuredly. Why should he be a charge on the county when you are able to support him? Aside from what you may be forced to do, has your moral obligation never appealed to you? All questions of a legal nature cheerfully answered. Address THE WHIP, 3420 State Street Health Hints By Dr. Troy Smith The practice of medicine and surgery has made wonderful advances in the past decade. For example, take the subject of appendicitis and note what progress has been made in this field alone. It used to be a common thing for a person suffering with acute appendicitis to have a diagnosis made of "Inflammation of the Bowels" or one the subject of appendicitis and note what progress has been made in this field alone. It used to be a common thing for a person suffering with acute appendicitis to have a diagnosis made of "Inflammation of the Bowels," or one suffering with chronic appendicitis with such symptoms as inability to sleep after eating, loss of weight, cramps, abdominal tenderness, confusing symptoms of pain and discomfort or symptoms referable to the stomach, gall-bladder or other organs, and be treated for "chronic gastritis," "chronic indigestion," "gall-bladder" and "liver trouble." (1) Constipation is a factor in the cause of appendicitis. So, therefore, keep the bowels open and do not allow waste to accumulate in the bowel as this infected matter may get into the lumen of the appendix and bring about the disease. (2) Diseased tonsils and adenoids predispose to the disease and should be cured as a prophylactic measure. The same may be said concerning infections of the teeth and tooth sockets, gall-bladder infections and ulcers of the stomach and duodenum. The prevention of these is best secured by maintaining a good general resistance and avoidance of the presence of the causative germs. (3) Avoid heavy lifting and blows in the abdomen near the region of the appendix as this is often the exciting cause of the trouble. (4) As appendicitis is found more often in those who consume large amounts of meats, avoid the overuse of meats: patients who live on farinaceous foods, legumes, macaroni, butter, milk, cheese, with a plentiful proportion of green vegetables and who do moderate and systematic work in the open air, are least subject to the disease. Alcoholic drink is thought to predispose to appendicitis. (5) Summing up the best prevention measures the bowels are maintained by maintaining the bowels in a not overloaded state by a diet containing little meat, by a good general resistance and by simple rustic life, with methodical work in the open air and the curing of tonsilitis, bad adenoids, and teeth.
