III. — NO. 23 TULS Riot Vict HURLS WIFE'S LOVER FROM WINDOW HURLS WIFE'S LOVER FROM WINDOW Jealous Husband Traces Pair To Flat And Ends Illicit Romance. Jealously which had long smouldered in the breast of Hugh Smith, 3600 Wabash Ave., burst into open flames Thursday and culminated in the tragic death of Archie Bell, aged 34, 3739 Wabash Ave. Love Affair of Long Standing Death brought an end to a love affair of long standing between Bell and Mrs. Smith, Hugh Smith, the wronged husband, was not ignorant of the fact that his wife's affection had cooled, but had been unable to definitely discover improper relations between his wife and Bell. Thursday, however, he traced his wife to apartment E, 26 E, 44th St., where he found her in company with Bell. Forcing his way into the room, he grazed with the man who had ruined his happiness. A few minutes later Bell was found a crumpled heap on the pavement below with his skull crushed. Speciation is rife as to whether Bell in the struggle with Smith fell from the window, whether he attempted to escape through the window and fell headlong to the ground below, or whether he was bodily hurled from the window to the ground. Bell a Musician Archie Bell was a drummer by profession, having once been a member of the orchestra at the Monogram Theatre, 35th and State Sts. He was lately engaged at the Elba Theatre, 31st St., and Indiana Ave. Smith is being held at the 48th St police station pending the coroner's inquest, June 6. CENSUS SHOWS HOW RACE HAS DESERTED THE SOUTH WASHINGTON, June 4.—Comparative figures issued by the census bureau show that while our Race has increased in numbers throughout the entire country, several southern states show an appreciable decrease, notably Tennessee and Mississippi. Our population in Tennessee for 1920 was fixed at 471,758, a decrease of 16,000 since 1910. Mississippi was shown to have 935,184, or a decrease of 63,000 since 1910. FARMERS LEAVE CROPS TO JOIN MAN HUNT MEMPHIS, Tenn., June 4.-Poor crops and shortage of the money market mean nothing to Tennessee whites, as was shown by the wholesale farm desertions last week when farmers left their plows standing in the fields to join in the pursuit of George Watkins, a farm hand living northwest of Locke, Tenn., who was charged with "insulting" a white girl. An hour after the alarm was given, an indiscriminate army of would-be lynchers was sweeping through the countryside, armed with hoes, rakes, axes, knives, clubs, shotguns, and pistols, intent on spilling human blood. At last reports Watkins had been successful in evading the clutches of the mob. LEWIS TO DELIVER ADDRESS AT HOWARD. WASHINGTON, D. C, June 4.—Attorney William Henry Lewis, of Boston, will deliver the commencement address to the graduating class of Howard University here June 10. Among the features of this year's commencement will be the presentation by the Howard Players of Percy Mackaye's "Canterbury Pilgrims." "A PAPER WITH A POLICY" The Chicago Whip AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY THE ARMY MARCHING IN THE STREETS OF CAMPAIGN No body of troops marching in the Memorial Day parade received more applause than the battle-scarred "8th." This picture shows a platoon passing the reviewing stand in Michigan Ave. The platoon commander has just given the command, "eyes left!" Fighting Spirit Makes May 30 Memorable Day As if loathe to relinquish the fighting spirit of our fallen heroes commemorated with appropriate ceremonies May 30, several Chicagoans engaged in minor battles during the day. Arthur Wyckoff, 3817 Indiana Ave. opened the hostilities when he tested the resisting qualities of Hudson Whitlow's head with a beer bottle. Whitlow, who lives at 3800 Langley Ave. retired from the tray with several lacerations about the head. The quarrel occurred about remarks alleged to have been made about Mrs. Wyckoff. A harmless house cat was the cause of a bloody misunderstanding between Edward Marshall and Simmie Harbison, of 3747 Langley Ave. Marshall received several slashes about the head and face at the hands of Harbison, with whom it is claimed Marshall was arguing because Harbison kicked the cat. Womankind demonstrated its fighting spirit when Miss Grace Reed, of 554 E. 36th St. flew to the rescue of Miss Mamie Brown, of the same address, who was receiving a pummeling at the hands of John Young, also living at the 36th St. address. Miss Reed used a milk bottle as her weapon of offense. Hospital attendants who are now caring for Young claim that she should have been in the army. A queer "accident" occurred at 3549 Indiana Ave. apartment 8. Police reports of the affair state that Miss Carrie Johnson, age 18, was "fooling" with Arthur Pryamus, and was "accidentally" stabbed in the shoulder. George Carter, 39, an insurance man living at 4456 Prairie Ave., suffered two fractured ribs when he was struck by an automobile at 35th St., and Calumet Ave. William Daniels, 40, 3518 Rhodes Ave., sustained bruises about the head and shoulders when he was struck by an automobile at 35th and State Sts Both Carter and Daniels are in the Provident Hospital. MINISTER INDICTED AS MURDERER MINISTER INDICTED AS MURDERER ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 4—The Rev. Henry Page, and his brother-in-law, Spencer Jordan, have been indicted here on first degree murder charges in connection with the killing of Policeman M. J. Finn, Monday. Iinn was shot while attempting to search the minister and his brother-in-law. 9 O'CLOCK THIS SAT. ENDS THE "BIG VOTES" Competition Getting Keener Race Becoming Faster And Hotter Rivalry of the most intense kind among the candidates who are now hitting their hottest pace before the clock strikes 9 this Saturday night, in order to get in every possible subscription on the biggest vote schedule of the campaign, is bringing a whirlwind of action. All the preliminaries are now over—the competition is getting keener as the contestants realize that there are only three more weeks of the campaign. The Whip's $3,500.00 in prizes will soon be distributed to their various winners and the $1,700.00 Dixie Flyer touring car will be presented to some "live wire." The fighting spirit dominates—the very air air is tense with excitement as the closing day of the BIG VOTE period draws nearer which is further emphasized by the fact that the entire campaign comes to a sudden end June 25th. Time Is Flying. Time is slipping rapidly by and the campaign will all be over before you realize it. Therefore, there is only one thing to do and that is to take advantage of every opportunity that presents itself which will be the means of increasing your vote standing. Candidates Showing Speed As one lady expressed it. "Why, I'm just really beginning to get busy and I haven't scratched the surface yet or seen nearly all of my friends who have promised to give me their subscriptions to The Whip." Another "live wire" hustler said, "Since I've found how easy it is to get subscriptions from my friends, I am getting more interested all the time and more determined than ever to capture that Dixie Flyer." This will give but a faint idea of the determination with which one is possessed these last fateful and important days. And everyone has their eyes on Saturday night. $25 "Club" Worth 700,000 Votes Between now and Saturday night $25 in long-term subscriptions is worth over 700,000 dollars. "Don't have to wait until you have collected the $25 to get credit for the 100,000 EXTRA votes allowed. (Continued on Page 3.) CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, JUNE 4th, 1921 de received more applause than the ing the reviewing stand in Michigan "eyes left!" Hangman's Noose Ends Love "Under Southern Skies" PARIS, Texas, June 4.—A forbidden love, of a type that frequently occurs in the south, but is seldom brought to light, came to its untimely end Friday in the county jail, when Virgil Sampson was hanged. Sampson was technically charged with criminal assault upon a well-known white girl, and sentenced to death. The facts surrounding the case gradually leaked out, but were suppressed by Southern newspapers and made known to the public exclusively through the columns of the Chicago Whip. It is now a well-known fact that the "assault" of which Sampson was charged was nothing more than a love affair between him and the white girl, which was exposed by the girl's brother. Sampson was arrested on the assault charge to "save the family name." At the trial the girl refused to appear and testify against her ill-fated lover who never died, death. Sampson made no reference to the charge or which he was hanged. CATCH AGED MURDERER CARRYING WEAPON OF DEATH CAMDEN, Ark, June 4—Henry Anderson, who was wanted here for the murder of the Rev. Joseph Mitchell in the outskirts of Camden on May 16 was captured at Stephens Wednesday Anderson, who is 73, had been at large since the commission of the murder. At the time of his arrest he was carrying the rifle with which he killed the minister. AGED JANITOR DRINKS HIMSELF TO DEATH Joseph D. Alexander, 50, janitor at 3727 Grand Blvd., is dead from alcoholism, having literally drunk himself to death. He was found sitting on the front at 424 E. 37th St., after drinking all day. After asking the landlady to allow him to lie down awhile, he was found dead a few minutes later. The coroner allowed the removal of his body to 5512 State St., pending inquest. CITY MUST PAY DAMAGES FOR RIOT DEATH CITY MUST PAY DAMAGES FOR RIOT DEATH Widow Of Man Who Was Lured To Death By Handbills Secures Verdict. "Go to Work" handbills distributed by zealous Thompsonites during the race riots of 1919 played a large part in winning a $2,300,00 damage suit against the city by Mrs. Ada Dozier, now of Jackson, Miss, but during the riots residing at 3515 Federal St. William Henry Dozier, Mrs. Dozier's husband, was killed by a mob at the entrance to the stockyards after reading the handbill and attempting to go to work the next day, according to Atty, A. L. Williams, who read the handbill into the records and alleged that they were the indirect cause of Dozier's death. The verdict was returned by a jury of whites in the Superior court before Judge Samuel Stought, Friday. This was the first of the thirty-eight damage cases against the city originating in the race riots of July, 1919, to be tried. Ellis Thompson, 6220 Morgan St., was excused from jury service without examination, apparently for no other reason than his color. The city immediately made motion for a new trial, and was represented by C. R. Lunn and Bert Cronson, both white, assistants to the Corporation Counsel. FEDERAL OFFICER BACKS UP DORSEY'S PEONAGE CHARGES FEDERAL OFFICER BACKS UP DORSEY'S PEONAGE CHARGES ATLANTA, Ga., June 4.—"The laws of Georgia are violated and defied in cruel treatment of Negroes with a frequency that warrants inquiry and demands correction, Hooper Alexander, federal district attorney, declared here tonight in a formal statement on the recent pamphlet, "The Negro in Georgia," issued by Governor Dorsey. "Negroes have been Killed on the public highways, and their bodies left exposed to the public gaze and though their slayers are known, no action has been taken to hale them before a jury," was another charge made in the district attorney's statement. He added that out of 135 specific charges of mis-treatment made by Governor Dorsey only one or two have been denied, and continued: "There is at least enough in it to make men consider what has been done and consider it calmly. If these things are true they ought to be corrected. It concerns the honor of all of us to correct them." WHITE FLORIDA FARMER GETS SENTENCE FOR PEONAGE PENSACOLA, Fla., June 4.—J. J. Pelham, white, who was convicted of peonage in the United States Court was arraigned for sentence Friday after withdrawing his motion for a new trial. He was fined $500 and sentenced to three months' imprisonment. Pelham was convicted of peonage, having been accused of having men arrested in other states and withdrawing the charge against them when they were returned to Florida, provided that they agreed to work a certain period for him on his farm. He then made them virtual prisoners. STUDIES TOO HARD; LOSES MIND. Mental strain, said to have been induced by overstudy, caused the commitment of Olie Meachen, 18 58 E 50th St., a high school student, to the psychopathic hospital. May 30.

"LYNCHING MUST STOP"--MEDILL McCORMICK In a speech to 2,500 citizens at Trinity Methodist Episcopal Church, 30th and Prairie Avenue, Senator Medill McCormick brought his audience to their feet by making this affirmative statement against lynching—"Lynching is the greatest evil in America today. It must be stopped. I know I have been misrepresented to the colored people by political demagogues who desired to deceive and thereby accomplish selfish ends, but my deeds will tell the story. I expect a long fight, but I am going to see it through if it takes me ten years or more. I find the election of President Harding a great help as he too, is strongly opposed to this great evil." Other Notables Speak. Senator McCormick's appeal for a square deal seemed to inspire the other political satellites who accompanied him. Ex-Governor Deneen made a brief speech in which he emphasized the necessity of voting the Coalition Ticket for Judges which will appear under the Democratic column. Hon. J. C. Cannon, the present Revenue Collector for this district also made a strong denunciation of the wrongs perpetrated against the black people in America. Mr. Cannon received quite an ovation. He has quite a reputation for fairness to all citizens, regardless of color. Among our local leaders were Col. Franklyn Denison, who introduced Senator McCormick, and Hon. Warren B. Douglas, of the Illinois legislature. RACE TROUBLE NARROWLY AVERTED. HUGO, Okla., June 4.—A race riot was threatened here late last week when two policemen assaulted a man and two women under the pretense of looking for concealed weapons. One of the policemen was seriously wounded, his head being crushed with a heavy blunt object.

Surround Jail. The trouble started when bad predictions were made that the man would be lynched at sunset. Shortly after, members of our Race began rivir in the vicinity of the jr in autonobiles, armed with rifles and small machine guns, evidently relies of the World War. Quickly they mobilized around the jail to lend assistance to the sheriff. Others began patrolling the streets leading to the jail. Word rapidly spread through the city that a conflict was impending. The first firing came shortly after dark when the mob of whites advanced on the position occupied by the defenders of the jail. Firing Becomes General The firing then became general with several known casualties on both sides. Two whites are reported killed and one colored but it is definitely known that several others are dead. Would Invade Residence Section: Angered at their failure to break into the jail, the frenzied mob of whites next planned to invade our residence section. This move had been foreseen, however, and our patrols met them on the outskirts of the section and decisively repulsed them. Troops Called Out. Late last night Adjt-Gen. C. F. Barrett ordered three companies of state militia to assist the police in quelling the mob. At that hour the streets of the city were still under the control of bands of armed fighters.

President Harding has nominated for the United States District Attorney for North Carolina one of the most bitter enemies and antagonists that the black race has. This gentleman is Frank Tinney. He was chairman of the Republican State Committee last year. He made cuear his position as "for a strict white government" and informed the women of North Carolina that in the future the Republican party's policy would be to let the black man stay out of politics. Harding was aware of these facts and yet he appoints Mr. Tinney. Remember the admonition of the Editor "Beware the Idees of March." The headquarters for Racial Relief located at 1216 Pennsylvania Ave., Washington, D. C., founded, operated and controlled by Perry Howard and Lincoln Johnson, is one of the most brazen pieces of political banditry that the black race has yet been made the victims of. The first piece of "Racial Legislative Relief" to be performed was to relieve Perry Howard of idleness and secure for him a fat political job. This establishment is really a job seekers bureau and any who contributes to it are warned that they are aiding and abetting two of the most norious Uncle Tom politicians that the country has known. History yet to be written will prove it. Keep your eyes open. In the Decoration Day parades a brave attempt to look cheerful was noticeable upon the faces of the heroes of the black race, but behind those dusky faces pain and disappointment could be seen and the look of bitterness could be discerned in every eye. Memories of Verdun and Chateau Theirry and the return to the lynch's rope, Jim Crow laws and the multifarious crimes of American democracy. These thoughts made soldiers grieve as they gazed upon the graves of their comrades who fought for a lost cause. Bert Williams, America's foremost character comedian, also a man of intelligence and modest wealth, objects to the expose of the Chicago Whip of the attempt to segregate his audiences of the black race at the Studebaker Theater in Chicago. Mr. Williams cannot escape the bar sinister any more than any of the rest and firm action on his part against this flagrant snobbery would at least create a higher degree of respect for himself both among the white and black race. He has felt the sting too often himself and in these the yellow leaf days of his career he would do well to perpetuate his memory as a Man as well as a comedian. 2 OI NOSEY WAS sitting on the rocks down on the lake front last Sunday evening trying to cool off his heated feet and vainly trying to run his fingers through his stubborn hair. His meditations were suddenly interrupted by the high voice of that cute TAKE NO CHANCES! little wife of State Street's Lochinvar. She was arguing for the return of her ring from one of the gentlemen who used to wear box back coats but now affects bell bottom trousers. This slick young man gave every excuse in the calendar but the lady knew that she had to show up with the ring that night or be in for a session. After the fight Nosey saw the young man crawl back towards the railroad tracks coattles and hattles. The lady did not get her ring but she very nearly got a pound of flesh and spoiled somebody's seventy dollar suit. There is a story about the worm turning but Nosey did not know that the worm kicks up so much fuss when it turns. ON A HOT night one is likely to see all kinds of sights. Nosey Oscar was looking for old clothes in the alley between Calmet and Forest Avenue and by chance hulled one of his sharp eyes upward and saw five young ladies in one room engaged in smoking cigarettes and taking off their hair bit by bit. Nosey saw some of the prettiest curls, wavelets and puffs come off without the slightest trouble, leaving the girls' heads something horrid to behold. Even the one who had her hair bobbed managed to take off some. When the lights went out, closing from view those dismantled heads, Nosey decided to look sharp at every woman's hair to see if he can solve the mysteries of those hidden fastenings for curls and puffs. "Store bought hair and diamond rings—Oh, Lord." So runs those St. Louis Blues.

SOME PEOPLE do not know to what purpose their automobiles what purpose they leave them in front of their house all night. Nosey was tripping home the other morning after an all night session at one of the clubs. Passing south on Grand Blvd. saw the "unemployed" yawning and stretching as they got up from their hard beds in the bottoms of the cars which were parked in front of houses along the street. Nosey noticed that there are some women who are apparently also unemployed and without shelter for they too stepped out of limousines and arranged their hair, in some cases the gentlemen assisting. Nosey wrinkled his long nose in a smile, nodded affably to the early risers and passed on thinking that after all the cars are well guarded against bandits. EVERYONE GETS fooled sooner or later if he tries to be a wise one. That very thing happened in one of the south side's cabarets, the other night. A slick young man was trying to put the "knock-ont drops" in a demure little lady's glass of good ginger ale. He got in the glass alright while she seemed not to be looking and he thought all was fair, and turned to answer the question of some friend. That was fatal, for, Nosey saw the little lady switch the glasses and start sipping what she knew was ginger ale. The man was glad and watched her while she drank his "own dope." When the young man began to feel groggy and finally took sick, he could not understand why the little lady was unsympathetic. The good friend of the young man who had the automobile took him off—but alone. These cabarets are sometimes interesting. Try them in a dull moment and look on if you cannot enjoy their pleasures, you certainly can see cute little tricks. YOU CANNOT BE TOO careful about the company you keep. One of the most popular dentists on the South side tried to beat up a chauffeur because he lost his watch, fountain pen, stick pin and roll while riding with a strange but pretty lady who asked him to direct her to a number which she had on a piece of paper. He wanted to make sure that she got to the address and hence he had to have a car. He could not pay the taxi bill because he tried to do like New York taxi drivers—drive you all over town when your destination is just around the corner. When the taxi driver told the good dentist that this same lady had fainted in the offices of several of his brother dentists and had "come to" with their watches and rolls, the dentist borrowed money to pay the bill and did chastise the chauffeur. Again, one had better be careful about the company he keeps in close quarters like a taxi. Women To Sell and Demonstrate Gentry Brothers' Famous BELO For The Hair. Commission Basis.

SWANSON For Judge of the Superior Court (VOTE ONY FOR ONE) TIMOTHY D. HURLEY Wherf the doors of The Whip office close this Saturday night at 9 o'clock sharp, the New Yorker count forwards. Never again will subscriptions count as many votes as they do these last few BIG VOTE days. This is the biggest vote offer of The Whip's short campaign. Your year subscription counts 15,000 votes if turned in before 9 o'clock Saturday —but after Saturday, the same yearly subscription would credit you with only 12,000 votes. Also, every $25 in subscriptions you turn in the rest of this week will count you from 300-000 votes to 70,000 votes, depending on the size of the subscriptions. Long term subscriptions size biggest in vote value—just one 10 year subscription alone counts 620,000 votes over ten times as many votes as ten yearly subscriptions five yearly subscription counts 300,000 votes—four times as many votes as five yearly subscriptions you with only 12,000 votes. Also, every $25 in subscriptions you turn in the rest of this week will count you from 300, 600 to 700,000 votes, depending on the size of the subscriptions. Long term subscriptions are biggest in the way they may be counted. 10-year subscription alone counts 620,000 votes — over four times as many votes as a ten-year subscription. Just one five-year subscription counts 300,000 votes — four times as many votes as a two-year subscription. So you see, it pays to get a Miss Mary Womack many of the 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10-year subscriptions as poshest, close as the race now the single big subscription may be the deciding bunch of votes that will land the $1,700,000 Dixie Flyer touring car. the clock strikes nine this Saturday, that will end the B I C VOTES.

ENDS THE "BIG VOTES" (Continued from page 1) as your subscriptions should be turned in promptly, as your subscribers want their papers when they have subscribed Big Subscriptions Count Most The 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10 year subscriptions are highest in value.

Warning to Contestants Contestants are warned that they must make regular reports to The Whip office with their subscriptions. In case of failure to make subscriptions, they must forfeit all rights to a prize or a cash commission. This is in accordance with the published rules and regulations, and will be strictly adhere to. Contestants active will have their names withdrawn from the list of the contestants and have their votes cancelled. Saturday Night Last of Big Votes No candidates will be permitted to enter The Whip office after 9 o'clock Saturday night for the purpose of having their subscriptions. This is the very last minute. Candidates who live out of Chicago must have all their subscriptions in the mail, bearing a post mark of not later than 9 o'clock Saturday. This gives the contestants the most of the BIG VOTE opportunities. Now for the Finish The winning Flyer can be secured between now and 9 o'clock Saturday night.

Remember that 9 o'clock this Saturday is the last minute in which you can get the BIG VOTES. Never again, after Saturday night, will you get as many votes for every subscription you secure. Something new in the line of accidents happened to Dr. Troy Smith Thursday when his automobile fell through the oil ramp at 35th St., and Michigan Ave. The doctor drove his automobile up the inclined runway to have the oil renewed, but in some unaccountable manner, ran off the track and fell through. A service car was quickly summoned to the scene, diagnosed the case, prescribed a block and tackle, which was applied to the front wheels; charged a modest fee of $5.00 and drove away.

REVEREND BIRT EXONER ATED Bethel Officials Report As a sequence to the false report circulated by a local paper that Reverend S. L. Birt, Pastor of Bethel Church had been arrested and found to have in his possession certain dangerous weapons, the special committee from the official board, appointed by the church, used their report last Sunday morning. This committee through its chairman, Mr. H. B. Lucas, presented a resolution before the entire board of officers standing in semicircle before the church, a set of resolutions and findings subsequent thereto. The findings were to the effect that Reverend Birt was not arrested; nor was he searched and found to have held in possession the articles stated nor any of such description or classification; that the charges were groundless and unwarranted. It was apparently a case of poor reporting and same followed by failure to investigate by the paper who circulated the report. It was approved by the body after brilliant speeches of loyalty by Mr. B. H. Lucas, Dr. Dabney, Mrs. Moore and others. Reverend Birt stated after the meeting: "I was glad to find the Whip circulated and read in places I visited out west." Assailant Unknown While walking in Forest avenue, May 25, between 34th and 35th streets, Peter Smith, age 64, 3416 South Park avenue, states that he was attacked by an unknown person.

DAVE PEYTON Composer, Musician, Critic THE GRAND: "Chocolate Brown" a great big (real) Musical Comedy production, is on its second weeks' run at this popular house. It is one of the best shows here in a long while, barring none of the most recent so-called top-notch attractions. In this show, we don't hear a lot of "Back o' the Alley" vulgarity; we don't hear a lot of old time songs that our daddy used to sing, and above all, our lady escorts are not insulted by the book writing of an uneducated ignorant producer. All of these things are absent in this Irwin C. Miller's Greatest Show. The faces are all new in the east and chorus. Andrew Trible, Wm. Fountaine, Mildred Smallwood form the battery, while May Crowder, Lillian Goodner, Mildred Pelibone, Henrietta Lovelace, aby assist. Mr. Colston and Archie Cross, take prominent parts and Wm. Therelst stops the show with his dancing act. The good looking chorus is a valuable asset and every one of the girls can step lively. This is the last week of "Chocolate Brown" and I advise every one to see it, if they haven't as yet. SOME SHOW. THE AVENUE. Billy King and Co., opened here on last Monday night to a fair house. The show presented was about the same as presented at The Grand a few weeks ago. "A Trip Around The World" is the title and is well played by the clever artists that King is always very clever in picking. The show will remain here for a week. THE MONOGRAM Willie Hightower's "Southern Belles" are playing here for the week and bringing the fans in from the street. The dancing, singing and costuming are up to the standard of this kind of production. "GREATEST SACRIFICE" At the States Theatre, Thursday, Friday, June 2 and 3, featuring William Farnum. A tale of love that survives even death. The story tells of a wife who sacrifices home, husband and child to win fame as an opera singer. She does win fame and wealth; but in after years she would trade it for happiness with the husband and child, but pends she can't. With the Actors. MAMIE SMITH. Mamie Smith, the biggest box of office attraction on the colored time, played Gary, Indiana on Monday, May 30th to a sold out house. She and her company will play one night stands into Kansas City. Moss and Frye, who made a big hit at The State-Lake, Chicago, were moved over to the Orpheum Circuit, Palace Theatre for the present week. Fred Rogers, the dancing brick layer, made a name for himself at The Rialto in Chicago last week. Rogers has an act that has made good everywhere and hence the long route. Horace George, the Clarinet King, is preparing to open a tent show, on the Stroll shortly. Mr. George is one of the very few musicians who possesses extensive ability and creative powers. Tom Le Monier's new song "Better Days" is selling very big these days; it will be on the records soon. Tom is a good fellow. Holiday in Dixieland with Will Mesten and Virginia Gibson Mesten, have started west from New York, on a route that takes them to the coast. Ida Foetson is doing a dance specialty in the act. Andrew Copeland and Doc Straine are doing nicely with their new act. They open soon on one of the Big Circuits. ATTA BOY. Kid Bumsky, the comedian in the King Show at the Avenue, is in a class by himself when it comes to a monologue delivery. Bumsky is the hit of the show. Andrew Tribble and Wm. Fountaine are doing good work in "Chocolate Brown" on the second week of their run at the Grand. Mr. Wm. A. Johnston, the proprietor of The Grand Theatre, is deserving of the patronage that he receives from our race people. Mr Johnston is always kind and corteous to any movement where philanthropy is solicited. The Consolidated Vaudeville Combine has merged into the T. B. O. A. A very wise move in the interests of the poor actor. Let there be peace among us. At the States Theatre, Saturday, June 4, the most pretentious western production ever staged. A powerful drama of life and thrills in the great sheep-raising country of Wyoming. See the leap from a galloping horse to a swaying stage coach—Trapped in a blind canyon—The fight between two dare-devil horsemen riding at terrific speed. Monumental Monthly The States Theatre is showing Thursday and Friday one of the first releases of the Monumental Monthly, a news film feature depicting current events of interest to our Race. "THE GILDED LILY" Featuring Mae Murray at the Vendome Theatre, June 2, 3, and 4. A romance of New York and its gay night life. And a girl whose flash and folly hid a heart of gold. By night a glittering salanander, she lived on the lights of Broadway. Laughingly played with fire—and escaped. By day, a simple-hearted wholesome girl, as sweet as any that raised their brows at her name. The why of it all is a story you'll thrill to see. MUSICIANS' NOTES. The Dreamland Dancing Palace, has closed for the Summer Months. The closing was unexpected by Elgar's Band. The lack of management on the part of Elgar, in returning a contract, (at the command of his white employers) for a summer engagement at the Municipal Pier which job has been held by our musicians for the past three years. Some business relation between two white men, who used to be in business together, and severed relations, is the cause of Elgar being the goat in returning a contract, that would give 20 or 30 musicians work for the summer. Therefore, the Uncle Tom tactics of Elgar, puts a white band to work, and our boys lose out, also at the Dreamland job for the summer. A little advice to bone head leaders. Run your job, and do your business, live up to strict union principles and above all think of the interest of the men you employ. DAVE PEYTON.

THE WORLD OF SPORTS Dempsey Now Pledges to Abolish Color Line WILL HEED THE DEMANDS OF THE PUBLIC Kid Norfolk May Have Look In With Champ After July 2. ATLANTIC CITY, June 4.—Following fast on the heels of Georges Carpentier, Jack Kearns, manager of Jack Dempsey, has pledged to abolish the color line if he retains the championship. Kearns said that if the champion eliminates Georges Carpentier on July 2 all other barriers will be let down. The next opponent of Dempsey after Carpentier has been conquered will be the man whose services can guarantee a purse "worthy of consideration by the heavyweight champion of the world." Kearns made this announcement when asked whether Kid Norfolk, negro, had refused advances to come here as a sparring partner. Kearns said that all reports that he had made "special rates" to Norfolk are unfounded. Norfolk would be welcome, no doubt, but as far as going to the point of guaranteeing a meeting with the black heavyweight, Kearns would make no promises. If the American public demands that he meet Kid Norfolk, or any other man, and the promoter is found who will guarantee the sum necessary to promote such a match, he will be ready in behalf of Dempsey to eliminate the color line. "Dempsey is a free-for-all champion." Kearns said. "He has the ambition to be pronounced the greatest heavyweight of all time. I believe that consideration is coming to him. I think that on July 2 he will make the verdict unanimous." SAYS OWENS IS COMING FIGHTER SAYS OWENS IS COMING FIGHTER John A. Tholmer, veteran boxer and army-camp boxing instructor during the recent World's War, has decided to re-enter the game. Tholmer is to guide the destines of Battling Owens, the big six-foot two-hundred pound scraper, who seems to have quite a future ahead. Owens is said to possess the strength and courage of a lion, is tougher than army shoe-leather, with a show of gameness under heavy fire, much after the fashion of Samuel Langford. Tholmer had much to do with the rise and advance of the great Harry Wills, and his knowledge of the early days of that great biffer moves him to proclaim for Owens a much brighter future. Owens has exchanged punches with Miskie, Roper and other big guns of the light arena, and has a true line on the sort of fighting goods packed by such celebrities. If Owens can deliver the goods, then he is extremely fortunate to crop out in to full fighting title at this time. Dempsey has declared that in the event of his successful conclusion with his mix with Carpentier, that he will throw down the gauntlet to the Dark men of fistic arms, and he, no doubt would consider a go with the husky young Owens as a worthy try-out of the prowess that is supposed to exist among the Colored scrappers. The promoters to learn exceedingly bright, as the promoters can not point to any of his engagements that have a cloud of doubtful reality overhanging them. Many of the fistic fans are of the opinion that the Colored brothers do not unfurl their best efforts when lined against each other, and experts, throughout all parts, who fear the result of a Wills-Dempsey meeting, point directly to that alleged defection surrounding the Dark scrappers operations in the past, and their ensuing debates along that line does not enhance the value and prospects of the Colored ringmen's chances at the big honors. It is to be hoped that the Giant Owens will so conduct his ring endeavor in a manner so as to draw a general demand from fight devotees in all parts, that in the event of Dempsey agreeing to take on a gent of Color, Owens will draw the first opportunity. HARRY WILLS KNOCKS OUT ANDY JOHNSON IN NEW YORK New York, May 27.—Harry Wills knocked out Andy Johnson in the first round of a 15-round match in Brooklyn tonight. Both are New York heavyweights. The round lasted one minute and forty-two seconds. THE BASEBALL PLAYER Saturday, Sunday and other days, the fans at Schorling Park will get what their hearts has long been pining for, a show of diamond wares between short-stop Williams and John Loyd, predecessor of the former at the American Giants infield post The battle of diamond wits between Foster and Loyd should furnish much fan-fodder for baseball devotees. JOHN LOYD'S CLUB COMES HERE SATURDAY AND SUNDAY JOHN LOYD'S CLUB COMES HERE SATURDAY AND SUNDAY Sehorling park fans are in for a real battle Saturday and Sunday and other days, when the great shortstop, John Henry Loyd leads his Columbus Buckeyes against Fosters Charges here. Old scores are to be settled. It was Loyd's Royal Giants of New York that the American Giants trounced down around Palm Beach, Florida, last winter, but they only, took them for a one game lead on the winter. Loyd smarting under the lash, at once joined the Western circuit, that he be given a better shot at the cocky American Giants. He comes here Saturday tied in the season's standing of clubs with the American Giants. The two teams are tied for fifth place, and this series will decide who is who, the Giants or the Buckeyes. Columbus held the Kansas City Monarchs to even terms in a series a couple of weeks ago, and they are said to have a collection of players that can deliver, and do it with a punch. Woods, the sensational California base-runner and hitter is with the Duckeyes; she has left a trial of fire at the paths of all diamonds trod this season. Roy Roberts, the only pitcher able to trounce Foster's gang last winter in the South, will, no doubt, twirl the first game as a clincher for the visitors; then George Britt, a mighty tough nut for all hats in the league to crack, will perhaps do the Sunday trouncing of the Chicagoans. Lody is said to be fielding and hitting as of old, his great work edging his youthful charges on to deeds of that effective cast that has caused the circuit managers to a man, to acclaim the Buckeyes a most formidable aggregation for any team in the country to tackle. Hudspeth, (Highpockets) the gangling first baseman that was seen here with the A. B. Pack team, holding the first station, and his work, the sensation of the league. Will the Buckeyes shove the local Champs to the bottom of the league? This series should prove one of great concern to Chicago fans. Saturday and Sunday will tell. HELD A. B. C.'S TO FOUR HITS Kansas City, Mo., May 29 — “Bullet.” Rogan was in good form and the Indianapolis A-B, is were defeated on the second game of the Monarchs, 3 to 9. Rogan allowed only three shots in the second, he turned the visitors back without a hit, but in the seventh they made two and added three. The home club did all its scoring in the first three innings. Three runs were made in the second, when Portundo singled with the bases loaded, and three runners reached home when Rogan made the final out of three more came in the third, when Donaldson singled and McNair and Moore followed with triple outs in the first out of the park for the final out of the day for the Monarchs.

The Cincinnati, club, (Cuban Stars), are leading the league, but the Detroit Stars are the potential leaders, chiefly through the fact that no games of the Western circuit have been played with that club, their standing remaining perfect. St. Louis has played a greater number of games than any other club, and have won and lost a greater number of games. They have won one out of four with Kansas City, four out of five with the Chicago Giants, two out of five with Columbus, and three out of five with the American Giants. Kansas City has won three out of four with St. Louis, one of three with the American Giants, three of five with the Indianapolis A. B. C's, and two of four with Columbus.

THE CHICAGO WHIP LD OF dges to CUBANS SLAM THE AMERICAN STARS IN CLOSE GAME CUBANS SLAM THE AMERICAN STARS IN CLOSE GAME Locals Fail to Find LeBlanc's Shoots and Are Trouned in a Well-Played Game. The Cuban Stars, the Cincinnati representatives in the big major Colored league, unbelted a real nitty article of the national pastime last Sunday at Chicago, and as a result, the champion American Giants were shoved a few pegs lower in the standing of this season's baseball doings. The whole story of Sunday's contest centers around the flashy pitching of LeBlanc and the brilliant fielding support accorded him by shortstop Rios and Secondbaseman Herrera. The two infielders capped to all parts of the diamond, intercepting difficult grounders from Giants bats and making throws-perfect ones—from so many and varied angles, that their exhibition knocked the fanatics clear from their moorings. For the Fosterites, Jimmy Lyons cut in on the big classy display of wares for the afternoon show. He grabbed two of the three hits of the local efforts, and tabbed the lone run. He also snatched the only bag stolen in the contest. Pitcher Tom Williams was also heaving in grand style, the seven Cuban hits being scattered, so that but one cropped up effectively in the scoring of the two visitor runs. Shortstop Bobby Williams got away with nine difficult fielding chances, and Pitcher Williams handled six assists for as many deaths; Williams also retired the Cubans in the seventh inning on five pitched balls. The Cubans are leading the league at present, and are showing a nity bunch of baseball players. The score: Am. Giants— R H PO A Gardner, rl. 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0—1 R.

NEW LAURELS FOR GOURDIN NEW LAURELS FOR GOURDIN Cambridge, Mass., May 27—In a qualifying contest covering the widest range of colleges in many years, nineteen institutions placed athletes in the preliminaries of the forty-fifth annual championship games of the Intercollegiate Athletic Association, held in the Harvard Stadium today.

TILT,10-4 Untimely Bobbles Unnerve Cubans And They Explode With Loud Noise. CHICAGO, IL. May 30.—The American Giants walked away with the Decoration Day fray with the Cubs without turning a hair. Pitcher Juarez was not at home; he had no control of his shooting arm, doing everything from hitting, walking and wild-hurling to batsmen, on down to balking. For five frames, the Giants had annexed but one blow off his pitching, but from that inning on until the end, they gave Juarez a hit and run shower. Tom Johnson pitched masterly all the way, no more than one blow in any inning be gleaned from his delivery, until the last rounds when he let up after having the game all stashed away. Both infields put up a pretty exhibition of play, and Lyons and Torrentte tickled the horse for long fast traveling three-drive drives. DeMoss tore off a hole, and Tom Johnson also had a good day at bat. The Cubs have a fast and hard hitting team and will try conclusions with the Foster crowd Thursday, and a scrappy go in order of the day. The score of Monday's game: Am.

This is is- ics. Let some of the politics and who knows what the higher has been fooled with promises of cocrats and Socialists fully appo- peration, then the system learned, the other fine point. Probably it is necessary to moulthed candidate and stan- tical destiny. It is incumbent in iniquitous system. He m never succeeds in gaining reco- fect it and make it acceptable tics. Many of our people when questioned upon the political issues of the day take seeming pride in replying, "Oh, I'm not interested in politics." Such a state of mind is hardly conceivable. And even if conceivable, no justification can be found to support it. "Politics" really means, "the affairs of the people." Every phase of national, state and civic life is encouched in politics. Politics has developed into a highly scientific game where strategy, skill, judgment, diplomacy and brains play important parts. The black man must learn to play this game successfully. Every phase of national, state and civic life should be free from intrigue and crookedness. Yet, no game that is played is essentially honest. Each player artfully attempts to deceive his opponent. In diplomatic circles, a player will be skillfully fencing for a leg and at the same time pointing at an arm. At the Peace Conference, Japan feinted an issue of "race equality" while in reality the shrewd Nipponese diplomats were strategically parleying for the Shantung Peninsula—which they got. In other words games are deceptively, hypocritically and artfully manoevered. In politics proper, the same methods and even others of worse propriety are used. A New York or Chicago politician will enter the "squared arena," will clinch his extended fist carefully, draw back his good left, point at his opponent's chin and then as fast as lightning shoot over his right to his unsuspecting opponent's solar plexus. Thus the fight is won. The black man has been playing the game of politics precisely like an amateurish dub. He has attempted to hit where he pointed and of course he got licked. At last, however, he is beginning to see the futility of his political system. There are three political parties in America: Republican, Democratic and Socialist. The real difference between the Republican and Democratic Parties, no one knows—only that George Washington founded one and Thomas Jefferson the other. Abraham Lincoln in 1864 signed the Emancipation Proclamation, thus freeing the slaves—everyone now knows why Mr. Lincoln did this—and ever since then the black man has blindly voted the Republican ticket. Even though he receives no real representation in the party proper, he really worships all old saynigs such as, "The Republican Party is the ship—all else is the sea," "The early bird catches the worm," "The rolling stone gathers no moss," and "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush." To mention the term Socialist would mean to the average black man an open obeisance to the devil incarnate. But at last he realizes that he must adopt some kind of a new system. He must play politics. Supose in the last Presidential Election, thirty-three and one-third per cent of the black voters had voted the Republican ticket, thirty-three and one-third per cent the Democratic ticket, and thirty-three and one-third per cent the Socialist ticket. Would not they then become unknown quantities? Would not each of the other parties immediately begin overtures to secure the balance? This system has been used by the Irish, Italians and the Jews, etc. All pationalities and creeds have "been doubtful" with the exception of the American black man. He has carelessly left his hand exposed. Everyone knew his strength and in consequence he has lost in every match game of politics up to the present. In Chicago, Mayor Thompson boasts of his black "boosters." Everyone knows that he controls the black voters and for that reason they have become the political scapegoats of Illinois. Frederick Douglas preached in the late sixties a "split your ticket" doctrine. The sage of Anacostia took a long and prophetic dip into the future. Not only in Chicago, but in every county and state the black man should become an unknown quantity. This is the first lesson in the game of politics. Let some of the political aspirants make a bid for his vote and who knows what the highest bid will be in the end? So far he has been fooled with promises only. But when the Republicans, Democrats and Socialists fully appreciate his firm resolution to get actual performance, then the system will change. When this is learned, the other fine points of the game will gradually open up. Probably it is necessary to double-cross some hypocritical loud mouthed candidate and start America thinking soberly of its political destiny. It is incumbent upon the black man to reform the present iniquitous system. He must beat it from the inside and if he ever succeeds in gaining recognition, it will then be his task to perfect it and make it acceptable. But as it now is, he must play politics. Impossible. in Chicago attempted to recently and was informed him transferred immediately f with the officer and the gam man of affairs actually exists, unity is lawful and orderly.

Both the officer and the gambler were members of the black race. This condition of affairs actually exists and yet some say that this community is lawful and orderly. If an ordinary citizen can threaten and intimidate a police officer while in the performance of his duty and get away with it the police officer is incapacitated to serve the community. The gambler challenged the officer because he was paying protection to authorities higher up and he felt safe in openly stating that his "games" were approved of by superiors to the poor policeman. Gambling and vice under the protection of civil authorities—and we are supposed to produce creditable citizens and make the city proud of us. It can't be done. Health Hints Dr. Troy Smith Tonsillitis or what is commonly called "sore throat" is an acute inflammation and swelling of the tonsils. On examining a throat in this condition the soft palate appears red, and on the tonsils there is an accumulation of yellowish - white cheesy masses. Often this condition is mistaken for Diphtheria. A smear from such a throat in question and an examination of the same under the microscope will clear up the question. PETER B. BROWN In adults the symptoms of tonsillitis are increased temperature, 101 to 103 degrees F. general malaise, dull headache and the familiar aches and pains of any acute infection. In children the disease is very common and goes on often unrecognized until some other organs of the body have been damaged from the diseased tonsils. Children may have the same symptoms that adults have and again they may complain of only soreness in the throat and pain in swallowing. The Prevention of Tonsillitis 1. Remember that tonsillitis or "sorethroat" is "catching." So do not kiss or use the dishes or glasses of a person suffering with the same. 2. Keep the body tone up to normal; get plenty of good pure fresh air, but avoid sudden exposure to cold and dampness. 3. A great many epidemics of sore throat have been traced to impure milk supply, but our modern means of Pasteurization and handling milk has greatly reduced epidemics of sore throats. 4. People who have recurring attacks of tonsillitis should have their tonsils removed as diseased tonsils only tend to poison the entire system, affect the throat, cause the heart valves, the joints (in the form of rheumatism), appendix, gall bladder, etc. The home treatment for tonsillitis is very simple, but owing to the fact that this disease simulates diphtheria in the beginning it is better to have a proper diagnosis made before instituting any kind of treatment. Mrs. A. writes: (1) What is your advice in regard to reducing? (2) Do you advise an operation for gall stones? Answer: (1) It is natural for some people to be lean and for others to be fat. Unless the fat is causing some irreversible and affecting the heart muscles in the form of fatty degeneration I would advise not to reduce. (2) In case of repeated attacks of gall stone colic I advise operation. A LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT. NATIONAL EQUAL RIGHTS LEAGUE Chicago, Ill. May 10th, 1921 The President, Warren G. Harding, Washington, D.C. Sir: There has been introduced again into the House of Representatives at this session of Congress, to make a law governing the thought of the Colored Americans after study, suffering and labor. One is the Dyer Bill so-called, intended to make lynching a crime against the Colored Government. The Madden Bill is intended to forbid the segregation of interstate passengers for race. These two bills represent the earnest desire, and are the result of years of study by the leadership of the Colored Government. The Colored race feels these measures are of pressing need for life and liberty, to escape crucixion of body and of mind, and had expected them to be obligated, but the Noble sentiment on lynching and maltreatment for race has, by your suggestion of Federal Commission to study the question of their treatment with the ogrillant, be the nate effect, namely, to encourage substitution of an investigating commission for all bills carrying a direct remedy. Any weakening of their treatment with the ogrillant be injurious to our welfare. Hence it is we appeal to you to make it known to Congress and thereby to the country, that in your message and your executive Chairman, MRS. EVA M. WELLS, Asst.
