Man Traps Wife, Shoots Her Lover Dead GIRL'S HEAD ALMOST SEVERED --- PRICE 5 CENTS VOL. III. — NO. 27 GIRL'S USES CLEVER RUSE TO CATCH MAN IN HOME "Goes To Lodge," But Returns Immediately And Hides In House William H. Parker, 32 years of age, an iron moulder, living at 3347 South Park Ave., was shot to death early Friday morning by Robert Pettus, 5628 Wabash Ave. The shooting occurred in the home of Pettus, where he found Parker at 1:30 a.m. in his wife's bedroom. Traps Wife by Ruse Pettus had evidently suspected his wife of infidelity, for he set a clever trap which led to his discovery of the lovers. Thursday night Pettus left home telling his wife that he was going to a meeting of a lodge, of which he was a member. He told his wife he would be away all night, and would return at 8 a.m., the next morning. He went out, remaining a short time, but returned to the house by the rear, and secreted himself in a closet. Wife Maets Lover Shortly after he had left the house, Mrs. Pettus also went out, meeting Parker at 40th and State Sts. They immediately returned to the Pettus home. Pettus was then in the house. Some time later while his wife was in the bath room, Pettus entered the bed room and attacked Parker. The trapped man attempted to defend himself, but was shot four times by the enraged husband. The bullets took effect in his breast, his hip, and his back. Parks Exonerated At the inquest, which was held in Blackwell's morgue, Pettus was exonerated by the coroner's jury, and his release recommended. Mrs. Pettus is being held by the police for further action. A. F. L. REFUSES TO QUASH COLOR LINE DENVER, Colo., July 2 — The American Federation of Labor in convention here last week washed its hands of the color line question by refusing to pass an equal rights amendment to the constitution, leaving the matter up to the individual jurisdictions. The convention took the stand that national and international unions could not be compelled to recognize Negro workers, and that this was a matter to be adjusted by conferences between them and the various organizations. Replying to a question from the floor as to whether it was possible to force any affiliated union to wipe out the "color line," President Gompers said: "The American Federation of Labor has previously declared that it is the duty of all workers to organize regardless of sex, nationality, race, political belief or color. The federation however, cannot force this view upon individual or affiliated unions without their consent." U. N. I. A. BUTTON SAVES MAN FROM MOB HOPE CITY, Ark, July 2.—Frank M. Liston, who was about to be hung by a mob recently, was released when they found that he wore a black, green and red button of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. The mob was looking for an alleged criminal, but when they saw the button they decided that they had the wrong map. ALLEGED ASSAILANT OF BRITTEN'S SECRETARY HANGED RICHMOND, Va., July 2—William H. Turner, 50, the alleged assailant of Miss Pear Clark, 2328 W. Superior St. Chicago, and murderer of T. M. Moore white, Miss Clark's companion on the night of May 22, 1920, was hanged here Friday. Turner maintained his innocence to the end. "A PAPER WITH A POLICY" The Chicago Whip AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY SOUTH SIDE BUSINESS EXPOSURES ARTICLE NO.1 THE FRANKLIN STATE BANK PROMOTER OF FIRST PHONOGRAPH COMPANY VISITS CHICAGO Harry H. Pace, president and founder of the Pace Phonograph Corporation was in the city last Harry H. Pace founder of the I Corporation was week and tells an interesting tale of his business. Mr. Pace is the first colored man to record the voices of colored artists and to put on the market exclusive phonograph records of M. B. their musical genius. His records have a beautiful tone quality and are clear and distinct. He Mr. HARRY H. states that he is unable to supply the public with the overwhelming demand and that folk songs and classics were running neck and neck with the jazz and ragtime pieces. Plans to preserve genius. It is the plan of Mr. Pace to preserve the genius of his people and the voices of great singers and speakers will be heard on the dots and lines of his phonograph records long after death has carried their immortal souls in the great beyond. This very interesting concern is located in New York city and from all indications will soon have world wide recognition. Visits Heaven, Hell Returns To Tell Experiences Visits Heaven, Hell Returns To Tell Experiences Physicians, psychologists and alienists are becoming interested in the case of Mrs. Mary Wilson, 2920 Federal St., who goes into trances periodically, telling her friends in advance at what hour she expects to enter the trance, and when she will return. Her latest departure from this earth occurred at 10 p. m., June 23. She said she was going to visit hell. She asked to be awakened at 2 a. m., June 25. She further asked not to be molested in the meanwhile. True to her word, she lost consciousness and remained in an apparent coma for two days. Scores of persons visited her home and found her lying peacefully upon the floor as if in a deep sleep, with her head upon a pillow. At the appointed time she was awakened. She appeared to suffer no ill effects from her "journey" to the underworld. In a previous trance, which took place about a year ago, Mrs. Wilson claims to have visited Heaven, and witnessed the wonders of the gates of pearl and the streets of gold. Her sister, Mrs. Lizzie Hammonds, 1834 Federal St., and her daughter, Mrs. Florence Osborn, stood guard over her body while Mrs. Wilson was in the trance. They say there is no religious significance to her trances, although she is generally regarded as a religious fanatic. The Franklin Bank located at the corner of 35th St. and Michigan Ave. occupies the central heart of the South Side. It is claimed on good authority that they have several million dollars colored girls. Thousands of colored people bank with them and transact their business through them. Yet the investigator for The Chicago Whip, which is probing the business places of the South Side, found out that no young colored girls are given a chance to earn a living in the employ of the bank and that the door of opportunity was not open to any young man of dusky hue. Hire Whom We Please Mr. Olson, cashier of the bank when asked why it was they employed no colored people, curtly answered "that we reserve the right to employ whom we please." He further stated "that it was not the policy of the Franklin CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, JULY 2nd, 1921 ANOTHER RESPITE IS WON FOR THE 'ELAINE RIOTERS' ANOTHER RESPITE IS WON FOR THE 'ELAINE RIOTERS' Little Rock, Ark., July 2. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, announced Friday that a respite had been obtained in the cases of the six colored men sentenced to die on June 10 for their alleged connection with the Arkansas riots. Unsuccessful appeals were made to Governor Thomas C. McRae to grant a stay of execution pending the result of the trials of the other six men in the Phillips County Court. Two days before the date set for the execution of Frank Hicks and five others, attorneys for the N. A. A. C. P., applied for a writ in the Pulaski Chancery Court restraining the State of Arkansas from putting the death sentence into execution. The writ was granted by Chancellor Martineau and a restraining order was served upon the warden at the penitentiary, preventing the execution pending further action by the court. On June 8, the National Office received the following telegram from Little Rock, Arkansas: "Petition for Habeas Corpus filed Chancery Court which stays execution. (Signed) Scipio A. Jones." Meanwhile a writ of prohibition was applied for by the authorities in the Arkansas State Supreme Court, dissolving this last defense of the condemned men. The National Office of the N. A. A. C. P. immediately telegraphed its attorneys suggesting that they apply in the federal court for a writ of habeas corpus to prevent the execution. On June 21 the National Office received the following telegram from Little Rock, signed Sigpio A. Jones: "No imminent danger electrocution. Possible writ here from Arkansas Supreme (Court) to Supreme Court United States, habeas corpus in Federal Court. Date of execution not named by Governor, change of venue granted. Trial, October." It is possible that the cases will be carried, on a writ of error, to the Supreme Court of the United States. In the cases of Ed Ware and the other five defendants whose convictions have been twice reversed by the State Supreme Court, attorneys for the N. A. A. C. P. immediately applied for a change of venue, when the cases were brought to trial for the third time in the Phillips County Circuit Court early in May, on the ground that prejudice against the defendants in Phillips County would prevent obtaining a fair and impartial trial. The judge reserved decision for six weeks on the motion for a change of venue, when, in the usual course of procedure, a decision is rendered in three or four days. No reason is known for unusual action. The telegram from Seipio A. Jones confirms that the case was at last been granted and that the men will be tried at the October term of the court. Bank to advertise in the colored people's newspapers." When asked why he stated "that if he advertised in one he would have to do business with them all," he made no answer. He was then asked why he did not also reserve the right to do business with those who had the attention of the people. He called the interview to an end at that time to attend to more important business, to his judgment. The Roosevelt State Bank, the Lincoln State Bank, and the Binga State Bank all employ colored people and do business with the papers. The Franklin Bank is one of the many institutions on the South Side which is not returning to the colored people just appreciation for their patronage and every week through the columns of The Whip these places will be exposed. Go it and investigate for yourself and find why they will not return a fair margin Continued on Page 3. LINC JOHNSON FORGETS 'REMEDIAL LEGISLATION,' TAKES BIG JOB WASHINGTON, D.C. July 2—Henry Lincoln Johnson, Republican National Committeeman from Georgia, author of the famous letter issued from Washington saying he was there, not for a job, but to urge Congress to enact "remedial legislation", has succeeded in being appointed to office. President Harding has appointed him Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia. His appointment has been sent to Congress for confirmation. Syndicate's Grip Loosens As Crowe Wars on Gambling Members of the famous gambling "s syndicate" on the South Side are beginning to see the end of their uninterrupted reign in State's Attorney Crowe's "unauthorized" raids upon gambling dens. It is a notorious fact that a closely interwoven syndicate controls and collects levy from thousands of dollars that change hands nightly across gambling tables. Houses which in the past have refused to pay tribute have been quickly deprived of the privileges and immunities enjoyed by the "s syndicate" houses. Last week's raids, however, came as a complete shock to the officials of the gambling trust. They had not been informed in advance, as was customary. "Hurts Business" The proprietor of one big gambling house was heard to say: "These 'maun-horized' raids, where they don't send us the tip-off, hurts business. My house can't get any play if the men know that I may be raided, and all prisoners held in the police station overnight and denied the customary nominal bond, which I, myself, furnish. As long as they know that in case of a raid they will be released as soon as they reach the police station, it's not so bad, but when they are taken to different stations throughout the city, or held without being booked, they will think a long time before they come back to play at my house." About 200 prisoners were taken in the Friday night raids. LAKE FRONT SQUATTERS OUSTED, DISPERSE THROUGHOUT CITY LAKE FRONT SQUATTERS OUSTED, DISPERSE THROUGHOUT CITY Having finally been ousted by the Illinois Central Railroad from their unique "cave colony" along the lake front at 31st St., the inmates of the novel village have dispersed through the neighborhood, and are said to be living in basements, doorways, and other sheltered nooks. Hope was held out that the Urban League's plan to establish a camp on one of the many vacant lots on the South Side would be realized, but officials of the league state that after securing donations for the equipment of the camp, Chief of Police Fitzmorris refused to issue a permit for it. Several of the homeless men are said to have taken up quarters in an empty basement which has been turned over to their use at 3133 Cottage Grove Ave. Others are said to be about to establish another colony at 92nd St., and Cottage Grove Ave., South Chicago. KU KLUX WHIP MAN, THEN PLACARD HIS BACK BELTON, Texas, July 2—The latest outrage known to have been committed by the Ku Klux Klan in this district occurred here last week when Benjamin Collins was seized by the Klan after the grand jury had refused to indict him. He was placed in an automobile and carried to Cedar Brakes, outside the city, where he was stripped and lashed. Later he was brought back into the town with a placard on his back, which read: "Whipped by the Ku Klux Klan." He was told to walk the streets and display this card until midnight then leave the town. Mrs. S. B. Davis SPECTACULAR CONTEST ENDS IN BLAZE OF ENTHUSIASM Miss Edna Purifoy SPECTACULAR CON IN BLAZE Yes, The Whip's great automobile prize subscription contest has ended and the proud winner of the $1,700 Dixie Flyer Touring car is Mrs. S. B. Davis. She is the demure and winsome little matron who operates the Pullman Restaurant near the corner of 31st and State Sts., Chicago, Ill. Mrs. Davis is a hustler and her great voting strength won for her the car. She is receiving the congratulations of the public. She received the car Monday afternoon at 7 o'clock and was full of blushes as she modestly signed the receipt. The winner of the second prize, which by the way is a very tidy sum, only $300 in cash, is pretty little Miss Edna Purifoy, she has just graduated from Wendell Phillips and is receiving the double congratulations from her many friends. Miss Purifoy lives at 3659 Grand Boulevard and she ran Mrs. Davis a close race. While we were unable to give two cars we are proud to confer on this charming little lady the well deserved token of our appreciation for the many subscriptions which she secured. Prof. Mundy Wins Third Prof. Mundy the popular choral director won the third prize, just $150. He is all smiles and only regrets that his time kept him from taking the first two prizes from the ladies. Everyone knows how popular the profession is. A well deserved little vacation which the third prize affords is his. Other Winners Will Be Announced Next Week As soon as recount can be performed to avoid mistakes the other prizes will Read, Think and Act EIGHT PAGES and Prize Winners Mrs. S. B. Davis NTEST ENDS OF ENTHUSIASM be conferred. The Whip policy is accuracy and fairness and no little mistake will cause the prizes to go wrong. The management wishes to thank the public for the excellent support given the contestants and the huge circulation which has been added to The Whip. The contestants are to be all congratulated and we are thanking them for the hearty co-operation. We only wish that we had an auto for each of the 62 contestants as it is we have done our best. DARK RACES PRIDOMINATE AT WORLD SOCIALIST MEET RIGA, July 2.—Delegates from the brown and yellow peoples of the near and far east and women, exceed by far all others at the conference of the Third Internationale, according to Moscow advices. Eastern women, some of them yeiled, some in colorful national costumes, are much in evidence. Leon Trotsky, the Bolshevik war minister, in speaking to the women delegates, emphasized the importance of "awakening the eastern proletariat." He said that the revolution had been accomplished in Russia and was in process of accomplishment in the West; it was the East's turn now. ERED DEAD WOMAN'S HEAD IS ALMOST CUT FROM BODY No Motive Other Than Jealousy Can Be Found Deep mystery surrounds the fatal stabbing of Mrs. Anna Levert in her home, 3540 State St. Mrs. Levert, who lives in the top apartment, was found dead in her bed late Monday afternoon by Edward Goosby, a roomer there, when he returned from work. The dead woman was found lying across the bed with her head supported by a pillow. She was fully dressed and had evidently been placed there after having been murdered. Her throat was cut from ear to ear, almost severing her head from her body. Robbery No Motive From the looks of the house robbery was not the motive for the murder. Nothing was missing, nor were there any signs of a struggle. When Goosby returned from his work late in the afternoon he was shocked to find Mrs. Levert in a prostrate position across the bed. He immediately notified the police. Examination showed that she had been dead several hours. Tenants in the building heard no outcry or struggle during the day, and it could only be deducted that the woman was murdered sometime between 6:45 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Police Hunt Old Sweetheart Although having no definite clews to the identity of the murderer, police are seeking Nathaniel Nelson, an old sweetheart of the murdered woman, with whom she had trouble previously. Nelson is said to be extremely jealous of her and had threatened her with violence on several occasions. The inquest was held Tuesday afternoon at Hill's funeral morgans. CAMPAIGN LETTER MAY BAR "LILY-WHITE" APPOINTMENT WASHINGTON, D. C., July 2.—Strenuous objection is being made by political leaders from all over the country to appointment of Frank A. Linney, white, of North Carolina, to be United States Attorney for the Western District of North Carolina. A delegation has arrived headed by Prof. D. C. Suggs, of Livingstone College to protest Linney's appointment. The cause of the trouble is said to be a letter written by Linney during the campaign as follows: "I pledge the women of North Carolina that if we carry the state in this election you will have a strictly white government, honorable and efficient, and I further assure the good women of the state in the future the Republican Party's policy will be to let the Negroes stay out of politics." FRENCH DENY BLACK WAR BABY FATHER'S NAME PARIS, July 2.—In an official decree last week Louis Barthou, minister of war, refused to grant permission to Adjutant Salla Diablo of the Sengalese Sharpshooters to marry a young Gretchen, who had fallen a victim to his persuasion and had horne him a husky, half-breed son. Dialo served with distinction during the war, winning the military medal, the war cross and other decorations, and besides was wounded three times. As a matter of fact, M. Barthou's refusal is taken in more serious quarters as the declaration of a French policy not to permit international marriages which are likely to result in military knowledge being obtained by enemy or neutral nations, rather than any desire to prevent Sengalese fathers from fulfilling their moral duties by giving a legal status to their illegitimate offspring.

The sect under a “prophet” who call- ed himself “Enoch,” drew the fire from the British police because they refused to evacuate government land upon which they had seitled at Bulhock, Village Springs Up For some years the government has permitted the “Israelites” to celebrate “passover” on a common, but each year a. growing number of pilgrims remained behind on what they called “holy ground,” until a village of some 380 huts had sprung up. The sect forbade outsiders to enter the village or to recognize any authority except orders from “Jehovah, the God of Is- rael,” as interpreted by Enoch the prophet, The government some time ago en- deavored to register the settlesent, but the police were obliged to with: draw to avoid bloodshed, Efforts Prove Futile Efforts by the secretary for native affairs and others to induce the “Is raelites,” to withdraw failed, Finally 800 mounted police moved from Queenstown, As the troops approached the native: gathered on the outskirts of the village to meet them and began to utter na’ tive incantations, Without warning the British opened fire. 171 natives fell dead. Hundreds were wounded, men, women and children. The village was demolished, and the leader surrendered.

Able to bear it no longer, he broke through the line, Immediately there was a shout as if of a war cry, the glitter of swords, and the flash of gilded uniforms, One of the warriors leaped upon the run- ning board of the car and made a pass at Pepper's head. When the line had Straightoned “out and. continued its march it was found that Peppers had various cuts 2}out the head and nose. McKinley Cole, 13, a schoolboy, was also cut in the melee, CENSUS FIGURES SHOW DECREASE IN BIRTH RATE WASHINGTON, July 2—In_ re- leases made for publication by the Census Bureau, the following figures are given: Negro Population. The rate of increase in the Negro population, which is not perceptibly affected by immigration or emigra- tion, is by far the lowest on record. This element of the population has been growing at a rapidly diminishing rate during the past 30 years, its per- feentage of increase having declined from 18 per cent between 1890 and 1900 to 11.2 per cent during the fol- lowing decade and to 6.5 per cent dur ing, the 10 years ended January 1 1920, Such data as are available in re- gard to birth and death rates among the Negroes indicate that the birth rate has decreased considerably since 1900, while the death rate has not changed greatly. ‘The following statement shows the Negro population in 1920 and 1910, with the rates of increase during the ast two decades, for the, South, the North and the West. The line be- tween the North and South follows the northern boundaries of Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky, Arkansas, and Oklahoma,’ The West is that part of the country lying west of the eastern limits of Montana, Wy- oming, Colorado, and New Mexico, Negro Population, by Geographic Sections: 1920 and 1910.

C., July 2, — The entire book dealing with the sen- sational Varner litigation, save that chapter concerning a divorce hetween HB. Varner and his wife, Mrs. Flor- enice C. Varner, was settled Tharsday afternoon to the satisfaction of all concerned, when the attorneys repre- senting the three parties interested, namely, H. B.

As to the innocence or guilt of Mrs. Varner, the courts have not yet said, and rather than go through the ordeal of another trial-and rather than at the nauseating case again before the public, all parties concerned desired to effect a compromise. Perhaps not in the history of the country have the people of both races heen so thoroughly aroused concern- ing litigation as they were during the time and immediately following the trial of the ease in federal court in February, The trial lasted for ten days, and in it over 100. witnesses tes tified, Clandestine meetings, sceret auto rides, love notes, telephone con versations and many’ other features disclosing the intimate private life of Mrs. Varner and MeRary were aired and contested, According to evidence _ presented, MeRary was found in the home of Mrs. Varner, one night last August, Mr. Varner ‘was out of town at the time.

GALLOWS 15 THE TRAGIC END CF “ABYSSINIANS: When the mind runs wild and leaps from the realm of common sense into the mysteries of Grand Priests, Higis Exalted Rulers and Head Potentates then mischief goes afoot and disaster comes as the sad finale, Grover Redding, Prince of a fan- ‘astic and mysterious. semi-religious cult and Oscar Macgavock, have paid with their lives for their folly, On ‘Friday they were hanged by the neck Hnntil dead, Tt was last summer when “Abyssinia appeared in Chicago, It ‘was there that Redding said he would build his empire and raise his throne. “He claimed to haye supernatural power and the gift of the Almighty was, his. The back to Abyssinia talk and the gay colors of the high priest made easy prey of the superstitious and gullible Southsiders, Redding’s following grew and one Sunday while leading a bright hued crowd of his followers through the crowded throughfares the Prince deliberately burned the flag of “Anprica and with his Lieutenant was ‘successful in killing Robert Rose, a sailor who attempted to prevent him. ‘Thus the Prince of Abyssinia offended ite Commonwealth of Illinois and for his crime he paid with his life. Warning to Fanatics ‘The story of the Abyssinians may [well serve as « warning to the fakirs and half-baked fanatics who infest the ‘city. There is always, danger while ig- |norance and superstition gains a listen- ling ear. The Abyssinian was not the ‘only Voodoo in the city of Chicago. Many others are here and the siren shriek of their voices can be heard each night. Many of them are on the danger mark. DR. PROCTOR EN ROUTE TO LOS ANGELES Dr. and Mrs. H. H. Proctor, of Brooklyn, N.

R C 09 F Membership 71,000 Buttons Replaced --- "NOSEY" SEES ALL KNOWS ALL OI NOSEY was seated on the back porch of one of Indiana Avenue's most imposing apartment buildings calmly smoking a real Havana cigar. He was almost frightened to death as he saw a white robed figure ascend the back stairway of the apartment across the alley. Noose does not believe in ghosts and took hold of himself. Another white robed figure appeared above and descended the stairway meeting the spectre which was ascending. The "ghosts" conferred, waved their spectral arms, then embraced each other in one of those "clinging statues" that Noose thought the ghosts had died once more. A door slammed and the ghosts came to life, each returning to his own plane—one up, one down. When Noose went around in front of the building he found For Rent signs in the windows of both apartments. Nosey gave up the mystery but passed the news along to the "Gossip Queen" of Grand Blvd, feeling sure that she could solve it like she has so quickly solved all other mysterious actions of couples in the city. ON the beach at 31st Street, one can find their lost husband, wife or sweetheart if she is no other place. Last Sunday considerable commotion was caused by the sudden arrival of an irate husband who had evidently been waiting dinner for hours. When he saw his wife in the water being supported by a disky "Appollo" he tore off his coat and started for the water's edge. The Appollo became a submarine and he dived, leaving the portly wife to sink or swim. She swam for the first time although she had been taking lessons for months. The crowd still wonders where that "Diving Appollo" came to the surface as they waited and waited. Nosey's keen eyes saw him amid the rocks but knowing how the husband felt refused to give away the secret. The moral seems to be—"Teach your own wife how to swim and dinner will be read." SOMEONE IS GOING TO finally get that sleek professional man who persists in wearing another man's bedroom slippers without permission. Nosey saw him making a two-mile dash down Calumet Avenue early Friday morning with one slipper on and one in his hand. He looked neither to the right nor to the left until he reached the elevated station at Prairie and 43rd St. Nosey picked up his cigar case and this is to advise him that he can get same by calling at the office of The Whip. The only caution made is that the gentleman does not appear at the office at the same time as the owner of the slippers. Peace and quiet must be preserved in the office. EVERY TIME THE clock strikes in that bungalow "love nest" on Eberhardt Avenue, so me on leaves the front door. Nosey tried to find out how the machine worked that turned out men exactly on the hour. Nosey put his head up to one of the windows and discovered men stirring things in big pots and others were putting things in little jars. The men who left with those packages were taking off the products of their labor. The clock was a time clock which told them when to stop working and was not an alarm clock for boarders. In other words, the simple little residence was not a love nest but was a manufacturing plant. Nosey remained at the window with his long nose inside until he found that he was reeling and feeling happy. He then staggered off to the street car line and got in a car and went to sleep. Some day Nosey is going out and get a job in that beautiful little bungalow—it smells oh So Sweet. YOUR BEST FRIEND is the man you evidently have to look at closest. That much Nosey gathered from an altercation between a butcher and a baker, lifelong friends who decided to share the same flat. One described the other as a rascal and the other in turn said his friend was "a low-down dog." Nosey listened attentively waiting for the blows which would surely come, but none came. It could not come to blows because each was afraid to accepte the other so strongly as to be equally guilty. Peace was declared and they returned to their flat with a different understanding. Now one wife cooks for the other husband and the other wife sews for her husband's dearest friend. Thus lion and lamb can lie down together in harmony. Nosey has learned since that many have tried the plan with success. Bailey Still Pushing Morgan Park M. T. Bailey, Pres., The Bailey Realty Co., 3638 State St., is still urging members of the Race to buy in Morgan Park while prices are still low. Mr. Bailey and several members of his staff will spend the entire day July 4th in the suburbs where they hope to be of assistance to some of the many people who will visit the park.

He broke his ankle in the descent. Season Closed The meetings of the Carter Charity and Benevolent Club have closed until late in September.

Cooper left during the week for his home in Buffalo, N. Y., after spending considerable time in the city on business during the past week. Card of Thanks I wish to publicly thank my friends who helped me in the Chicago Whip's great campaign just ended. Especially do I want to thank the Illinois Central Ushers, a group of men that I have the honor of being their chief. I owe them an everlasting debt of gratitude for the valuable interest they manifested in me in this contest. Again thanking you all, I beg to remain, Very truly your friend. SANDY W. TRICE Fifty Baptized in Lake Michigan The Pilgrim Temple Baptist Church early Sunday morning descended to 25th street and Lake Michigan and Reverend S. E. J. Watson, Pastor, alone baptized about fifty converts. I know you know that gentleman who insists on telling everybody about how much he pays for his clothes? Oh you must know him because he says that he does not wear a shirt unless it costs $25.00. Well, tell him that he may have to wear a flannel shirt one of these days at the Stock Yards. Others have. I know you know those beach vampy who sit high—oh very high—on the pretty rocks down on the beach? You must know them because they have never been near the cold waters on the hottest days. What's the idea? I know you know that gentleman with the new automobile and who does not seem to have a garage? You ought to know him because he lets that car stand out in front of that "notorious flat" on Indiana Avenue all night long. One morning it will be gone and then he will want to holler. It will not be a thief but one of the part owners who will insist on moving the car from in front of "that" building. You must know that gentleman who tried to make a policeman believe that his B. V. D.'s were running trunks when he was stopped in his mad career down Wabash Avenue last Saturday morning in the wee hours? Well, he is a fluent talker and managed to borrow sufficient clothing to make him look like Barney Google, but they satisfied the fastidious and astute policeman. I know you know those curb "cooties" who persist in draping their forms around every mail box so that no one can put a letter in the box without unwinding them from around it. Well, one of these mail box lizzards got a jolt the other night that will make him stand up straight for a few nights anyway because it will be painful if he tries to sit down. Give us some such men who will take this action. I know you know that dapper little barber who sits nightly on the back steps of that popular widow? Well, tell him that the windows across the way always have curious eyes which take in his every action and few eyes are protected with shock absorbers and he should have a little mercy for the tender "eyes of youth." I know you must know those little girls of the "younger set" who now meet their friends on the edge of Washington Park three nights out of the week? Well, if you know them please tell their mothers and fathers that they are not in the movies but are with men fully fifteen years older than themselves. I know you know that Mrs. S. B. Davis won The Chicago Whip's car? If you do not know it, visit her popular restaurants and see the Dixie Flyer standing in front of her establishment. Overcome by Heat Mrs. Smith of Grant Memorial Chapel was overcome by intense heat in the Eighth Regiment Armory, Sunday the 26th, while attending the Five Million Dollar Drive held by the Methodists Conference, A. M. E., now in session in Chicago. She was carried from the building to a nearby residence under the direction of Reverend Scott, pastor Grant Memorial Chapel. After fifteen minutes attendants reported her condition as normal. Clio School Suspends Activities for Year. At a recent meeting of the officers and incorporators of the Clio School of Mental Science, Inc., 3543 State Street, it was decided to suspend the work of the school for one year in order to give the principal and founder Dr. Adena C.

J., July 2 in the opinion of Jack City, former heavyweight champion, who now is completing a term of one year in the federal penitentiary. "Carpentier is just an ordinary fighter, and is not capable of swapping punches with Dempsey," Johnson said. "I have seen him box and have worked many times with Carpentier in France, and while they were only workouts, I am sure I gauged his ability. His speed is good, but it is nothing extraordinary, and his right is not the best. "I have never seen Dempsey box, but from what I have heard, and even if he is a good second rater, he should beat Carpentier."

The Saturday and Sunday game scheduled here between the Columbus Buckeyes and Monarchs was called off. Rain preventing the two contests. The two games played on Monday resulted in victories for the locals. The first game was a spirited contest, in which Roberts of the visitors gave Rogan a fierce go for pitching honors.

SANTAL CAPSULES MIDY Easy to Take Quick to Rebuild CATARRH of the BLADDER Safe, Successful Each Capsule bears name 43 Beware of counterfeits NG BY KANSAS CITY WILL PLAY HERE SUNDAY KANSAS CITY WILL PLAY HERE SUNDAY Morning and Afternoon Games Will Be Staged Upon the Fourth of July, So Great Is the Demand for Accommodations What is or will be, beyond all doubt, the most crucial test ever endured by two big Colored baseball teams, is the first three games to be played at Schorling park between the Kansas City Monarchs and American Giants. The two monsters of the diamond lock horns for a five-game series starting Sunday, with a morning and afternoon scrap for the Fourth, and a Tuesday and Wednesday's dash to decide who is who Heretofore, the K. C's always opened here on Saturday, but this time, the initial occurs on Sunday, and that is their lucky day. Army-man Rogan has trimmed the locals upon each Sabbath day show here, while "King" Curry, pitching the best ball of the two, has always annexed a trouncing, the latter always opening the fray each Saturday here. The Kansas City gang play at Janesville, Wis., Saturday, so under such conditions, the great Rogan should draw the pitching assignment for Sunday here; with "King" Curry doing the honors about Fourth of July afternoon. Such arrangements would allow Rogan ample time to be fit for the big Wednesday windup. Every seat in the big baseball arena has been sold out, and one will be lucky to find a foot of ground upon which to place a box. The two games, morning and afternoon of the Fourth, are for the purpose of affording every devotee an opportunity to witness, at least, one or two games of the series in comfort. The first game of the Fourth will start promptly at 10:15 a.m., and the afternoon game at 3 p.m. It is expected that this series, will, in a measure, serve to establish the rightful claimant of first place honors in the league, which has been presided over by the Detroit Stars; the latter will be hooked up in a series with the St. Louis Giants at the time, and in case the Wolverines slip a cog, then the Kansas City-Foster games would develop into a death struggle for first place honors. All games played may mean a change in the standing of the clubs; so each fray will be hotly contested, and that indicates a heavy attendance at all games. Baseball devotees are advised to get out early Sunday, also Monday morning and afternoon of the Fourth. Tuesday and Wednesday are expected to be the most important days of the series, because it is not probable that either team will win three straights, so no definite information as to how the teams really stand can be gleaned until the Tuesday-Wednesday tray, and jockeying for the best pitchers for the finish is worrying the managers to a much greater extent than anything else. You had better see all the games lest you miss the best. KANSAS CITY AND ST. LOUIS BREAK EVEN Great Teams Win Two and Lose Two ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 26—The St. Louis Giants broke even on the series with the Kansas City Monarchs winning two and losing a like number of games out of the four played. After Drake had won on Sunday, rain interfered with Monday's game and hostilities were renewed on Tuesday, when Kansas City mauled Finner almost at will and copped the contest 9 to 5. Moore hit one of the longest home runs ever seen at the local park when he put the ball over the left field fence in fair territory. McNair also hit Finner for a home run. On Thursday the Giants won with Jimmy Oldham in the box. Oldham held McNair, Donaldson and Carr Slugging Co. to three hits, two of them being of the scratch variety. St. Louis made six runs while Oldham was keeping the opposition away from the plate. In the nine innings played only one man reached second base where he perished while three other men were stranded on the initial bag. Oldham fanned eight batters and Donaldson was a victim on strikes on two occasions. The little pitcher sent the opposition back in order in the third, fifth, sixth, eighth and ninth innings. On Friday the Monarchs won from the Giants and even up the series, the score being six to four. Fields and Drake who did mound duty for the locals deserved a better break in the luck but the boys had an off day in the fielding line and the entire infield with the exception of Mongin were off color. Holt, usually a reliable fielder, turned two bad errors at the wrong time, each of these allowing the Monarchs to score uncared runs. The old reliable Joe Hewitt was also guilty of an error when he made a bad peg to first in the eighth inning allowing Kansas City her final run. LD OF Owens And Rough House Wilson To Try Again GARY, Ind., June 28.—Big Owens, whom many tout as a comer in fistic circles, is to get another try at "Rough-House" Wilson, who is credited with taking the honors in their last go here some time ago. Despite the fact that Owens looks and acts, at times, to have the makings of a champ, many experts who have lamped the work of the two bruisers, predict, not only a victory for Wilson, but there exists an open declaration that Wilson will knock the New Orleans heavy for a goal. The bout will be held in Gary's largest and most popular theatre, and a large crowd of fight fans from Chicago and other points are expected to attend. The mix will take place, July 11. William Buckner and Ed. Victor can be seen for tickets in advance. The former at 35th and State St., Chicago, Ill. GIANTS DOWN JEWEL'S BALL TEAM ST.

The Stars are leading the Major Colored League, and have only been defeated in three contests so far this season. Saturday they open a series against the St. Louis Giants and this aggregation is said to be packing enough ability this season so that they have managed to make the awful rough for all teams in the league. This series, going through the Fourth of July, is the first meeting of these teams this season, and the result of the series is expected to have an important bearing upon the present standing of the clubs in the league. The games will be hotly contested. Stars Win First Game of Series Cowpers Make Mack Parkers Hustle to Win 2-1. DETROIT, Mich, June 25.—Detroit Stars captured the first game of the series with the Cowpers in a fine pitching duel, 2 to 1. Cowpers were first to score when in the third, Kudron singled and scored on Gallandt's double. They did not threaten again until the ninth. Wesley dropped Swick's pop fly. Scrull sacrificed, Dugray walked. Cooper was yanked and Holland took the mound and struck out the next two batters. Perry doubled in the ninth and scored on Petway's single in a pretty hit and run play. Gallandt was the shining light for Cowpers both at bat and in the field, while Perry again played a spectacular game at second.

DETROIT, Mich., June 26—Detroit Stars won both ends of Sunday's double bill at Mack Park defeating Cowpers by scores 6 to 5 and 6 to 1. The first game was exciting, the Stars overcoming a three-run handicap by scoring five times in the eighth. McColum, Cowper pitcher, pitched great ball for seven innings, when he was hurt and had to retire in the eighth frame after allowing four hits. Holland was hit freely, but good fielding kept the score down. Gatewood twirled the last game allowing Cowpers but one run. Howland, Cowpers, pitcher, hurled nicely, fielding errors accounting for five of the colored team's runs.

ADVERTISING RATES ON APPLICATION W TIVE IN OUR EXPRESSION, WITH CONSCIENTIOUS COMPASSION FOR STRICKEN HUMANITY, WITH UNSTINTED CREDIT TO THOSE WHO MERIT, WITH TRUTH AS OUR GUIDE POST AND LOVE AS OUR INSPIRATION, WE HAVE COMMITTED OURSELVES TO THE WORLD OF JOURNALISM. WE HAVE DEDICATED OURSELVES TO PUBLIC SERVICE. Solidarity. Solidarity. Since the Republican party is catering to the southerners, since immigration continues to rob us of our jobs and as we fail to get representation from our taxation, it behooves us to get closer together in every respect. We are too weak as a race to survive under the terrific internal disorder that now prevails. Our churches are spatting among themselves. Baptist fights Baptist and Methodist is at the throat of Methodist. We can not survive if our greatest organization, which is our church, is to disrupt itself. Sterner and stiffer does the business competition of the white man grow. He is now willing to do the rough and menial labor which once afforded us bread. The result is that more black beggars can be seen on the streets now than ever before in the history of the race. Race solidarity is needed, a great union of moral, mental and spiritual forces. This paper has been continually appealing to the ministry to come out in the open forum and help us bind the race together just as tightly as cohesion binds water into ice. The black people of America, as has here been repeatedly stated, are now at the crossroads of destiny. Every one is cognizant of the many problems which confront them. No one has hit upon a feasible solution and no one will, it is a problem for the whole race to solve. It will be a gradual solution if there is ever one. We need solidarity to begin with. A vague hint is made concerning one of difficulties which keep us divided. Take the Newspaper off the Cross. About seventy per cent of the black people in America, according to accepted statistics, are capable of reading and writing. The art of reading and writing marks the birth of civilization. Anyone who is capable of reading and writing should be endowed with the intelligence which civilized people are blessed with. Yet we find black people grossly ignorant and inexcusably uncharitable in dealing with the affairs which affect them most seriously. As lynchings, mutilations, deprivations, cursings and kickings are administered to the black people in this country and as the newspapers published by their own kith and kin are letting the world know the truth, while editors are being thrust behind prison bars for championing the cause of their brothers, we would expect to find the great masses of bruised and battered Sons of Ham at least grateful to the newspapers for the conscientious attempt to mold a different public sentiment and gain relief from the hellish conditions which now exist, but the newspapers have been placed upon the rugged brow of modern Gologatha, they have been disclaimed on every hand and in no instance has the general mass of black people been willing to aid them in gaining equal opportunity and liberty. Almost beyond conception has the newspapers of the black man been discredited and by the black man himself. Great numbers of simpering, cowardly, idiotic black people have stated that their newspapers were "great agitators." These spineless heathen object to the inside facts of lynchings and segregations being published. Others frankly and openly boast that they never read "colored papers." We have heard of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, of the same fate which came to Socrates, of the betrayal of Caesar by Brutus and of the murder of Abraham Lincoln. These terrible injustices happened years ago and the causes of each martyr were not then nearly so clearly established as the cause of the black man in America and the repudiation of the press at this time is one of the most foul and filthy examples of ingratitude that the world has known and if such base actions had happened in other surroundings and by other people imagination would need no wings to picture tar, feathers and exile. Many individuals admit that they prefer to absorb the lies published in the white papers concerning themselves and to absorb the bunk which causes them to bow their backs in servitude and humility rather than know the truth and gain a firmer faith in themselves plus a stronger determination to change the system of public opinion which has stamped them as vile, ugly, dirty, undesirable, inferior and worthless. Man did not evolve from savagery when he learned to talk, cook, wear clothes and defend himself. It was the invention of reading and writing which caused him to ascend into the transparent light of civilization. In India, Percy Ward states, it was the palm leaf that was written upon and then read; in Egypt it was the magic papyrus that became the saving influence of mankind. In America the black man's newspaper chronologically correlates his activities. The white man bases his published information upon prejudice, lies and politics and the truthful story of the black man in this country will be culled and garnered from our own newspapers. If the great masses of black people ever expect to evolve themselves from ignorance, superstition and slavery they must read their papers and swear by them and those who understand the great battle of "pitiless publicity" that is being waged in which the abolition of lynchings, disfranchisements and injustice is sought should not allow the listless, unfeeling and uncaring element to abide in ignorance. The newspaper must be taken down from the cross and carried into the hearts and homes of black people before it is too late. If the black man is civilized and literate let him preserve and cherish the efforts that are being made to gain a place in the sun for him. THE CHICAGO WHIP ```markdown ``` Editor's Mail Health Hints We Can Do Little Alone— With Your Help We Can Do Anything 2228 S. Dearborn St. Chicago, IL. June 27th, 1921. Editor of Chicago Whip: S. Troy Smith The State of Wisconsin was one of the first and foremost states to adopt a "Eugenic Law of Marriage." The result of this law is seen in the well developed, robust, healthy citizens of that state. I had occasion at one time to view a large number of youths from that state and I was strack by their powerful physique, their muscular development and their large trames. On inquiring why people from Wisconsin looked so I am a constant reader of The Chicago Whip and I want to extend to you my heartiest congratulation on your very timely editorial, "Business Status" on the South Side. No other people under the sun need that kind of teaching and "whipping" as much as our people. Please let me insert here, (no other race of women in the world need virtue, purity when it comes to mingling with men of all other races, as much as our women.) A. E. LIBERTY LIFE INSURA Most of our people who are guilty of these things, should seclude in some place and overhear what the Greek Jew, Italian, the American white trash and even the old Chink business men out on the South Side, have to say about them behind closed doors. May be then, all of us would see and understand what you are trying to tell us. healthy, I was informed that before a man in that state could marry he had to present a clean bill of health in other words he must be free from disease. The woman also must present the same clean bill of health and be free from disease. But thank God I believe we have a champion in you and your worthy paper, and back bone and Race pride enough to tell us of it. It stands to reason that in order to have healthy children the parents must be free from disease. The marriage vow should be a sacred one and marriage should be encouraged more among our race, especially should this apply to our healthy young men and women. The prime object in a young woman's life should be to so conduct herself before and during marriage that she can bear and rear healthy children for in the final analysis whatever may be shown to interfere with a woman's physical capacity to bear children, or her ability to rear them is for her, unhygienic. Very truly yours, (Signed) W. H. ROGERS, SR PREACHES SERMON AS DEATH SENTENCE IS PASSED ON HIM PREACHES SERMON AS DEATH SENTENCE IS PASSED ON HIM BIRMINGHAM, Ala., July 2—John Whiteside, convicted slayer of a 75-year-old confederate veteran and a 15-year-old boy on a fishing trip was convicted and sentenced to be hanged here last week. In the law of marriage the physician should have more authority in some states than he has if we expect to have healthy children. From the young woman's point of view we should especially be on the guard for tuberculosis. The law should give the physician power to veto a marriage in a case where tuberculosis has existed, in a girl whose family history is bad, whose chest expansion is slight, and whose physique is below standard. The "Eugenics of Marriage" from the man's standpoint indeed presents a more difficult and more serious problem. I plead that young men before marriage be free from all traces of venereal diseases. In this short article on the topic of "Marriage" space will not allow me to discuss tuity marriage and venereal diseases, but I must say in order to have more healthy children and more happy marriages, the physical fitness of candidates for marriage should be the occasion for an all-around family conference on both sides, with seats at the conference table for both the medical expert and the minister. He was brought into the courtroom with a small Bible in his hand which he fingered throughout the proceedings while he stared around the room. When asked if he had anything to say why sentence should not be passed upon him, he launched into the preaching of a sermon, in which he declared that he had found his God who had promised him a place of rest after he left the world and that he was ready to go any time and would not deny his God no matter what anybody said. He was led away still fingering his Bible and muttering prayers. Fair Draws Many the occasion for an all-around family conference on both sides, with seats at the conference table for both the medical expert and the minister. The County Fair given by Quinn Chapel, 24th and Wabash Ave., during the week was a splendid affair and was largely attended. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP THIS week hundreds of our young men and women have graduated from our high schools and colleges, competent to hold responsible positions, but find none open to them. These young people are capable of making our Race a great power among men. They have the ability and education to do great things. But unlike the white race, the Negro has not built up large institutions that will give employment to our people. The time has come when we must do so if we would be other than an inferior people. Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures. In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils. "I will appoint no Negroes to office in the South." It is claimed that this is the statement that President Harding has uttered and, like rats leaving a sinking ship, the job-seeking inebriates, led by Henry Lincoln Johnson, have decided that it is best to look elsewhere for a meal ticket. Harding is living up to expectations of the "radical," hair-brained editor of The Chicago Whip, who said that he would do that thing. It was hoped that President Harding would not cater to the prejudices of the South and it was also hoped that he would give his pussy-footing Uncle Torn followers the double cross. We were fortunate in the latter hope. The Liberty Life Insurance Company is to be owned and officered exclusively by Negroes. It will give our young people the opportunity they deserve and should expect. We want you to work with us to make this possible. Join the hundreds of others who are making their money serve the best interests of the Race while earning large profits for themselves. Three of the society buds of Tulsa, Oklahoma, the throbbing heart of hell, will leave Saturday to attend the convention of the Christian Endeavor in New York. These white girls are going a long way to learn of Christian Endeavor. If they are desirous of performing Christian acts they will do well to stay right in Tulsa and aid the homeless and suffering victims of their people's villainy.

Name Street City State The International Reform Society, composed of Ministers and Charity Workers, have appeared before the Vice-Chancellor of New Jersey to protest against the inhuman and barbarous prize fight which is to be held between Dempsey and Carpentier. In all probability neither Dempsey nor Carpentier will emerge from the bout with greater damage than a black eye or a slightly battered nose. The reformers are very much alarmed at this inconvenience to the fighters, yet they are not at all perturbed at the hacked and carved black people of lynch-land. The sight of bodies hanging in midair with a rope around their necks does not offend them, neither does burnings of living human being. No one has heard of this reform society making a protest to Congress against these real grievances. The Reform Society needs reforming itself. Hugh M. Dorsey is no longer governor of Georgia. His term of office has expired and his successor has taken his seat. In his farewell address Mr. Dorsey laid bare the evils of lynchings and peonage. In his inaugural address, Gov. Hardwick, successor to Dorsey, makes no utterances against these disgraces and reflections upon the State of Georgia and civilization. What do we expect to come out of the mouth of Tom Hardwick and Tom Watson, anyway? They are agents of the devil and are well supplied with brimstone and fire. Arthur Brisbane claims that the black people in America are dying faster than the white. That may be true, but the birth rate is greater than Mr. Brisbane can possibly know. He made the greatest mistake of using the figures of the last census. The census gatherers only reached about two-thirds of the black people. Brisbane is in error. The black race will never die out. The white race is seeing to it that ample fathers are supplied for the black boys.
