BANDIT BREAKS GUN OVER HEAD OF AGED MAN
Shot Down By Cop Who Is Cited For Meritorious Action
Policeman Charles G. Rowell, of the Stanton Ave. station, apprehended and shot down Wm. Blackman, 22, 3258 Prairie Ave. late Wednesday night, after Blackman had robbed and beaten his businessability. Get back, 62, in his home at 2816 Hills Ave.
Hold Up Man on Porch
Green, who was sitting on the porch at his Ellis Ave. address, was held up and forced into the house at pistol point, Alaskan and another ban, who reacted.
Beaten With Gun
When Green attempted resistance he was beaten over the head with a pistol by Blackman until he fell unconscious to the floor. The violence of the blows broke the handle of Blackman's pistol. Leaving Green lying on the floor, the robbers went to a trunk and ripped it of $25.00, all Green's wordly noses seized, and dug down the alley.
Bandits Fail to Halt
They were met by Officer Rowell, who was rushing to the scene after hearing Green's cries for help. As the bandits rushed past him, Rowell ordered them to halt. When they failed to do so, he fired twice in quick succession. Blackman fell to the ground, dropping his pistol.
A sum of money was found in the possession of the fallen bandit as well as a .38 calibre revolver covered with blood and the handle broken. The gun was loaded with dum-dum bullets. Blackman was removed to the County Hospital.
Officer Rowell has been recommended by Captain Gallery for an increase of pay for meritorious work.
KILLS RIVAL TAXI DRIVER. BURIES HIM IN PEA PATCH
Paducah, Ky., July 30—Police of this city and Elizabeth, N. J., assisted by the Keystone National Detective Agency, have just captured and held for murder Willie McMims, alias Willie Martin, charged with the murder on June 25, of Lonnie Lawrence, a wealthy taxicab operator of this city. Lawrence, who has a brother, Goldie Lawrence, residing at 3037 Washah Ave, Chicago, disappeared on the night of June 25, while out driving in his Marmon car. Simultaneously Miss Sylvia Christian of this city also disappeared. She was later traced to Dumain, Ill., and further investigation revealed the fact that Lawrence's car had been sold there also. 'Lawrence himself, however, had not been seen or heard of
Girl Confesses
After several days' grilling, Sylvia Christian confessed that on the night of June 25, McMims came to her home and asked her for a shirt, as his own was bloody. He then offered to drive her to Dumain. She consented and they made the trip together. There he sold the automobile and disappeared. McMims was finally traced to Elizabeth, N. J., where he was arrested July 16.
Acting upon Sylvia Christian's story, the body of Lawrence was found buried in a pea patch, eight miles from Paducah. Pea shoots had already grown four inches over his grave.
It has developed that jealousy on account of Lawrence's flourishing taxi cab trade had led other car drivers to plot his death, which was accomplished by McMims.
OPPOSE JOHNSON'S
NOMINATION
WASHINGTON, July 30—The nomination of Henry L. Johnson, to be recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia, has been approved by a poll of the senate committee, but it is expected that a stiff opposition to his confirmation will be made by certain Republican and Democratic senators from the floor of the Senate.
"A PAPER WITH A POLICY" The Chicago Whip AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY
FINDS HUBBY'S "BACHELOR CLUB" TO BE OTHER WOMAN'S HOME
Mrs. Minnie H. Wingfield, 3629 Ellis Park Ave., is one of the few women to draw back the veil and peer into the mysteries of the "Bachelors' Clubs" where so many husbands spend their leisure time. After being denied for many months the companionship of her husband, Marion H. Wingfield, Mrs. Wingfield came from Detroit in search of him. She found that he was working at a "bachelor's club" in Hubbard's Woods, Winnetka. His work there seemed so arduous that he was able to visit her only once a week. Further investigation revealed the fact that the nearest thing to a bachelor at the "club" was a "bachelor maid", in the person of Miss Christine Fluellen. It appears that Wingfield was working for her, and had been 'working' and living there for several months. At the divorce proceedings which naturally followed, Mrs. Wingfield secured a decree and a settlement of $1400. She was represented by the law firm of Ellis and Westbrooks.
CARRIES LIBERTY
LIFE OVER THE TOP
J. B. H.
Two years of uniting, unceasing effort in the organization of the LIBERTY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, has finally crystallized into success. After a satisfactory deposit of more than one hundred thousand dollars in first mortgages on Negro real estate with the Department of Trade and Commerce of the State of Illinois, the Company is now full grown and is licensed to insure lives on the legal reserve basis.
This wonderful achievement in the commercial development of the Negro represents faith, the co-operation, yes, and the money of more than a thousand Negroes—men and women who have stood shoulder to shoulder throughout the trying doubtful days of the organization period—but in a large measure the victory of attainment has come by reason of the indefatigable work and the masterful genius of the Company's founder, Frank L. Gillespie.
Imbued with an inherent aptitude for attempting great things and determined to build a financial institution that would stand as a living monument to Negro business, Mr. Gillespie set out two years ago to organize the LIBERTY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY. He had to encounter many obstacles along the way; his own people said such a colossal undertaking among Negroes could not but end in failure; that Negroes would not invest their money in such an enterprise. But Mr. Gillespie, the pioneer, the dreamer, who did not make dreams his master, but rather brought them into a happy reality, pushed forward, brushing aside all impediments in his path; and in the completion of his organization, he has shown the world that Negroes can and will promote high-class business ventures with just as much success as the people of any other race.
The law of compensation may well apply here. In proportion as Mr. Gill

PORTUGAL PUTS O.K. ON SLAVERY IN AFRICA
Leases Vast Tracts of Land, Giving Lessors Right To Command Labor
New York City, July 30.—Slavery is about to be legalized in Portuguese Africa, according to The Nation. The Portuguese government has granted the Mozambique Company, a commercial concern, absolute power over 65,000 square miles of territory in East Africa . . . a district larger than England and Wales combined, with a population of over 300,000.
The Nation for July 27 publishes the text of the law for conscription of both which will probably be among other things yet enacted. It provides that natives can be forced to work for 24 cents a month, and punished if they do not work, even if they cannot find employment. Foreign missionary work has been prohibited.
"KILLA WHITE MAN" INITIATION TO NEW SECRET FRATERNITY
Mayersville, Miss., July 30.-Police and citizens of this community are much exercised over the contents of a letter which recently fell into the hands of E. N. Scudder, white, county attorney.
The letter, which purports to come from a secret organization, known as "The Black Brothers," and which was written to an applicant for admission into the "brotherhood," declares that no man may become a member "until he has killed a white man."
In this particular letter, the applicant had been instructed to kill M. Herzog, a white merchant, of this city, who has a reputation as a "nigger-hater."
The letter, it is said, further declares that the "Black Brothers" are determined to fight fire with fire in an effort to curb the activities of the Ku Klux Klan.
An official investigation has been launched to determine whether the organization is a myth or whether an organized effort is to be made to dispose of whites of the type of Herzog.
A number of ministers, teachers, and leaders of the Race have been summoned into conference, but all disclaim knowledge of the existence of any such organization.
GIVES HUSBAND GAS WHEN
HE RETURNS FROM JAIL
It has been an open secret in the neighborhood of 31st St. and Cottage Grove Ave., that Mrs. Abraham Hatcher, 3119 Cottage Grove Ave., was anxious to get rid of her husband. It is alleged that she used various methods. On July 25 she had him arrested. He obtained a release, however, and returned home. He went to bed early and was later found overcrowded. Was someone had turned the jets on, Mrs Hatcher is suspected. Her disappearance lends strength to the belief. Hatcher's two daughters were also over come.
Victim of Bullets Obtains $3,000
Judgment
York, S. C., July 30.—Walter Barnes, white, has obtained a judgment of $2,925.00 and costs against Samuel Miller, whom he sued in a civil action for shooting him. Miller is said to have valuable farm holdings.
lespie has worked, in that proportion has he achieved, and in that same proportion should credit be given him for this monumental accomplishment. Men and women of all creeds, interested in the economic advancement of the Negro should, in one accord, accuse Samuel Franklin L. Gilleppe, founder and president of the LIBERTY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, as one of America's foremost constructive organizers in the field of Negro commercial life.
Chief of Police John A. Gustafsen of Tulsa, Okla., is said to have laughed as the city was reduced to ashes. He is shown here in a characteristic pose. Gustafsen was kicked out of the Department last week.

NEW YORK CITY, July 30—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today announced the arrival of a letter from Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti, in which it is charged that one of the Haitian editors, Jolibois by name, who was imprisoned under the censorship provisions of martial law, had been brutally assaulted in prison by an American mob. The letter stated that the officer in question would be brought before a court martial.

Article number one dealt with the Franklin Trust and Savings Company located at 35th and Michigan Ave. This article set out the facts that many hundreds of thousands of colored people's money was on deposit there and yet no colored people were employed neither were their official organs, Newspapers, Periodicals and Magazines recognized. Article No. 2 dealt with the Pickford Hat shop, which is located at 112 East 35th, which does not employ colored people and whose representatives are boastful in stating that they did not need to hire colored girls and that white were preferred, notwithstanding the fact that the great bulk of their business was colored.
Article number 3 exposed the restaurant at 203 East 31st St., which refuses to serve colored people and openly and notoriously insults them notwithstanding the fact that it is located in the heart of the colored people's district. These articles are published for the general good of the community and are intended to enlighten the public on the business problems of the day and to counsel them how to wisely spend their hard earned money. Scores of letters testify that the gen-
RAID 33rd ST. MONTE
CARLO, NAB THREE
GAMEKEEPERS
Detective Sergeants Scott, Midleton and Stark swooped down upon the "Monte Carlo of America" early Saturday night, and in the confusion and pandemonium which ensued, bagged three of the gamekeepers. Their explanation of the fact that only three were arrested was that by the time they put the first three under arrest, the others had hastily scattered themselves to various parts of the globe.
The so-called "Open Air Amusement Park," at 33rd St., and Wabash Ave., has been called America's "Monte Carlo," not because a large amount of money changed hands there, but because of the diversity and variety of the games of chance to be found, and of the open and notorious way it has been conducted.
The three gamekeepers nabbed were Ed Ryan, white, 435, So. Clark St., Wm. Gaughan, 29 So. Dearborn St., also white, and Joe Baker, 3115 Indiana Ave. Ryan and Gaughan were operating roulette wheels. Baker, with native simplicity, was operating a marble game. They were find $5 and cost in Harrison St. Court, Monday morning. Immediately following court session, several of the concessionaries were seen removing their effects.

eral public approves of the action of The Chicago Whip and realizes how they have been duped and fooled.
Simon's Shoe Stores, located at 310 E. 35th, 745 E. 47th, 146 E. 55th and 241 East 31st Street, cater almost exclusively to colored people. They employ no colored people, however, and do not bid very strongly for their patronage. It just comes to them, so to speak. Simon believes, as do many other of the business men of the community, that it is not necessary to employ colored people nor make an open bid for their patronage through the papers, etc. He will have large handbills printed which will be thrown on your doorsteps and glut up mail boxes. If Mr. Simon wishes to maintain his patronage among the colored people he will do well to conduct his business along more democratic lines. He informs us that in his four stores he employs his family. We hope that he will employ a few colored and return to the community a fair per cent of the profit that he is reaping. Next week's issue of The Chicago Whip and every other issue for some time to come will reveal the unsatisfactory conditions of the South Side business.

TACOMA, Washington, July 20—(Special). Dr. Henry H. Proctor, of Brooklyn, was in special demand here last Sunday, as he returned across the continent from the National Council of Congregational Churches at Los Angeles. He came here at the invitation of the Rev. Dr. Frank Dyer, white, of the First Congregational Church, who is a great friend of our people. Dr. Proctor spoke at two white churches during the day, two colored churches and also at the Tacoma stadium, one of the finest in the country, to an audience of both races. After tracing the historic progress of the American Negro, Dr. Proctor held that the Negro had had the race and now proposed a frry and ced it not in the kitchen, but at the table with the rest of the American family. Dr. and Mrs. Proctor were shown much attention by the cities on the coast which they have visited.

Richard E. Parker, 3457 State St., was arrested Thursday evening on charges of assault and battery preferred by Miss Cleola Walker, a stenographer employed by him.
Hattiesburg. Miss. July 30.—Another evidence of the growing disrespect for any sort of government at all on the part of Southern whites who have been taught by the lassitude of local police authorities to take the law into their own hands whenever it was necessary.

TULSA, Okla., July 30—After deliberating six hours the special grand jury empaneled to sift the facts around the Tulsa riot, found John A. Gustafsen, suspended Chief of Police of Tulsa, guilty on two counts.
Gustafsen finds himself guilty of being the indirect cause of the greatest horror in American domestic history. He was indicted on five counts. The jury deliberated only on two of them, the other three having been dropped since the trial started two weeks ago. Guilty of Negligence and Conspiracy
The two counts upon which Gustafsen was found guilty were failing to take the proper precautions for public safety on the night of the riot, and conspiracy to free automobile thieves and collect rewards.
Conviction on the first count carries with it dismissal from his office as Chief of Police. Conviction on the second count carries with it a jail sen-
Responsible for Loss of Life and Property
It has been definitely established that the terrible loss of life and property came as a direct result of Gustafsen's failure to act at a time when bloodshed might have been averted. Rioting which broke out on the night of June 1 continued with unabated tury until four o'clock the next afternoon, with little or no interference from Chief Gustafsen.
Adjt.-Gen. Barrett, of the Oklahoma Guard, was emphatic in his charges that a complete fall-down of the local police was responsible for the rioting. Gen. Barrett said that he came to Tulsa with 100 uniformed men from Oklahoma City and in short time pacified 25,000 armed, milling men, and said the chief could have done it with equal facility if he had used his power. The General said the presence of six uniformed policemen or a half dozen deputy sheriffs at the county building when whites, bent on taking from the jail Dick Rowland, would have prevented the riot.
Other Counts Dropped
Counts of the indictment which were dropped included not enforcing the liquor law, not closing disorderly houses, and of having used his city office to further the interests of his detective agency.

Bedford, N.

When police were called, they seized and turned on a fire hose, and stood them off, until the water was cut off from the main.

Henry Gibson, Jr. of 4133 Indiana Ave., has been in the habit of whiling away the hot summer evenings playing at cards at the home of Mrs. Thompson, 3708 Wabash Ave. On the night of July 25, however, William Thompson, the husband, surprised the quiet game, and tore into Gibson with a pocketknife. Gibson emerged on the left arm, one under the left arm, one in the right check, and another in the left side of the neck.
He has subsequently renounced all card games.

NEW YORK CITY, July 30—Th

ment of Colored People, 70 Fifth Ave
nue, New York, has issued a state
ment urging every colored man and

as it is announced that the Dyer bil
is roported out of committee and i:
before Congress, to telegraph to hi
or her representative in Congress urg
ing passuge of the federal anti-lynch
ing bill introduced by Representative
Leonidas C. Dyer of Missouri. There
is every prospect that the bill for
which the Association has been fight
ing for more than_a year will soon be
reported out of Committee, and will
be ready for consideration by the Con.
gress.
‘As early as January, 1920, represen

was not reported out, but a new bill
was introduced by Mr. Dyer in May;
was favorably reported, and was
placed on the calendar of the House
of Representatives, afew days before
the adjournment of the 66th Congress.
It is substantially the same bill which
is now before the House Judiciary
Committee, The bill provides:
That the putting to death within any
state of any person within the jurisdic-
tion of that state by a mob or riotous
assemblage of three or more persons
openly acting in concert, is an offense
against the United States; that every
participant in such a mob shall be
guilty of murder and liable to prose-
Gution in a District Court of the
United States; that every county ir
which such murder occurs shall_ be
fined $10,000, recoverable in a United
States Court; that every state or mu-
nicipal officer who neglects all reason
able efforts to protect his prisoner:
shall be liable to prosecution in a Dis
trict Court of the United States, an¢
may be punished by imprisorment not
exceeding five years, or by fine not ex-
ceeding $5,000, or both.

‘A short time ago the general mana-
ger of the Public Life Insurance Com:
pany promised District No. 8 of the
company, located at 3902 State St.
‘one of its several branches in the city
and composed largely of colored stock:
holders, that if they won the contest
then in progress, it would reward the
winners with a fine chicken dinner and
“all the trimmings.”
Both parties kept their word, Num:
ber 8 by winning and Mr. Clover by
furnishing a fine repast. Each mem-
ber of the winning team was allowed
to invite two guests. Accordingly, on
Thursday evening, July 2Ist, the hosts
and guests assembled in the halls of
the company district No. 8 Branch at
3902 §. State St., to enjoy the prize
and extend good cheer to the friends
of the prize winners.
Judging by the number present and
the pleasure and enjoyment registered
by those who were fortunate enough
to be present, the evening's entertain-
ment «was a glorious success. The
company, its general manager, and its
District No, 8, underestimated its num-
ber of friends and well-wishers, work-
ers and partisans, for the seating ca-
pacity was greatly overtaxed and to
the great regret of all the sponsors
many were required to be served at
a second series of tables which were
hastily provisioned and everyone ulti-
mately taken care of.

MAKING HISTORY
The Outstanding Achievement of the Present Era has been the Successful Organization of THE LIBERTY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY Which Now Has $100,000.00 In First Mortgages On Negro Property On Deposit With The State of Illinois

THE LIBERTY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY is the only Old Line Legal Reserve Life Insurance Company ever organized by colored men in the State of Illinois and one of the first in the North. The Certificate of Authority, herewith shown, is proof that this Company is now ready to begin the writing of insurance. All those who have doubted the ability of this Company to meet the requirements of the State are convinced that this institution is a REALITY.
Approximately One-thousand Loyal Stockholders, located in every State in the Union, through their faith in themselves and the Negro Race, have made this wonderful organization possible. They are MAKING HISTORY. Each Stockholder will work in his own locality to help put insurance on the books of the Company, thereby bringing in many dollars of additional revenue to the organization.
The Medical Staff is being organized to include the most expert and efficient examiners. This will insure to the stockholders that only the best risks will be assumed, resulting in thousands of dollars being saved every year in mortality alone.
The Agency Organization composed of high grade men, will very shortly cover Illinois and other States in which the Company will soon operate. Every policy of insurance that they sell will mean better homes and greater opportunities for our children. By an investment in the stock of this Company, these hundreds of busy workers can be made to work for you.

THE financial plan of the Company called for a total issue of 10,000 shares of stock at $30.00 per share. All of this stock has been subscribed and the capital of $100,000.00 fully paid. There are many, however, who, because of industrial depression and other unforeseen contingencies, are not able to finish the payments on the total amount of stock for which they subscribed. They will not lose anything, for they will be issued stock for the amount of money they have paid.
THE LIBERTY LIFE AGENCY COMPANY, fiscal agent for LIBERTY LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, has undertaken to dispose of all shares for which the subscribers are unable to pay. These are being offered now on the market, not at a higher price than the original stock, but for the same price - $30.00 per share, payable one-half down and the balance in sixty days.
A shrewd investor will at once realize the great opportunity herein offered to become identified on the ground floor of an institution that is destined to become the greatest financial institution among Negroes in America.

O!
NOSEY was at the beach the other afternoon looking at the waves and other things as they came and went. He heard a splash and then a scream. A man had dived off the rocks in all of his clothes. A woman was running from the rocks like a deer followed by another woman who was wielding an umbrella with telling effect. Nosey helped the man out of the deep water of the lake only to find that he was still in deep water as the lady with umbrella was his wife and the "other woman" was a "beach vamp" moving the temper of "friend" wife. Nosey moved away quickly, not wanting her to start at him. The beach vamp will not appear at the beach for a week Nosey later found out. The husband will return to his home after he returns from his run to Los Angeles. Time heals many wounds, it is said.
ON LEAVING Washington Park the other night Nosey heard the voice of that talkative society lady who lives on Champlain Avenue ery out: "If you do not return the money, you will report to some hospital in very bad shape." Nosey, thinking the lady was in trouble with a hold-up man, hastened to her rescue. When she saw Nosey turn the corner of the shrubbery, she grabbed hold of the gentleman and forced him to run to a car standing nearby. A day later, one of State Street's pinchback boulevardiers approached Nosey in a very belligent manner and asked him how much of a certain conversation had he heard in the park the night before. Nosey quickly said, "Not a word." The gentleman of State Street is now in Harlem. The lady did not get the money and she says that she is going to New York. Nosey knows that there are plenty hospitals in New York so the gentleman will be taken care of well "over there."
SOME PEOPLE are born lucky, Others achieve it—maybe, Nosey was passing the the "Near Love" flats on Wabash Avenue last Thursday evening and saw a man run out like an air express. A glass pitcher followed him in his flight. Then came the woman whom everybody calls "child" because she is so small. She was running to catch him but ran right into the arms of a man entering. Her curses turned to words of endearment which were returned by the man entering yet she said nothing. The girl gave him a lift. The girl was stopped by a brick throws at another man by another woman and he lay on the sidewalk yet the "child" did not know it. The last man did not know it, therefore even though he had a sore head he was still lucky.
EVERYBODY HAS not heard about the matrimonial party that a prominent citizen pulled with another prominent society lady. The guests were few and Nosey was not invited. He attended by way of the back porch and wishes to relate that of all the wedding parties this one was the most exclusively planned in the history of Chicago. There was no couple yet it was a wedding party. There was it a wedding set that announced that the party was in honor of some of those present. Nosey tried his best to get to the bottom of the affair but on account of his strained position looking in from without had to leave before this, the latest social mystery was explained.
YOU MUST NOT say things that you do not mean if you are a pretty little lady. Nosey heard a little cashier in a southside business place tell one of these wild and woolly gentlemen that she could follow him to the end of the earth. The gentleman took her by the hand, dragged her to a waiting car while spectators looked on. She was too frightened to try out and did not know what it meant. The car drove off in a cloud of dust. The next day the little lady smilingly admitted to all that she had met the man she had been waiting for. She would not work as she had a husband to look after. This may be a tip for some timid ladies.

Wm. Bruce, the famous tenor solosis was a feature on the stroll, singing from a truck Dave Peyton's famous song hits.
Clarence Williams, the song writer, is the best song plugger in the gana. He knows just how to hold the big crowds.
Andrew Bishop, the great dramatic star, is in the city ready to start rehearsals for his Chicago engagement.
Horace George, the clarinet artist, is preparing a gang of musicians and performers for an engagement at Rockford.
Carl Rickman and Tom Lemonien were sixth in the Herald Examiner song contest. Speaks well for the boys to win this place out of two thousand entries.
Carrie Smith, the actress, is now living in Boston, Mass. Stithe, beside being an accomplished performer, is also a good pianist.
Chas. Moore, the veteran actor, will be seen soon at the Grand theatre with the famous Lafayette players; associated with him will be Alice Gorges, Sussie Sutton and all the old favorites. The New Progressive Circuit is booming and it looks like a sure gamble for the big road shows this season. Consecutive booking and light jumps have been the great need in the past and this condition has sent many a show on the rocks. Miller and his big show will open at the Grand on Sept. 5, for a limited engagement. Theresa Burrows Brooks is in the city for a short visit. Mrs. Brooks is a well qualified performer and a prime favorite in Chicago. Miller and Lyle and Sissils and Blakes big show "Shuffle Along," has closed its engagement in New York. Salem and Tutt Whitney will put on a big new show this season. No doubt it will stand up with their past success and these two gentlemen study the wants of the public and deliver the goods in a sealed package.
"Jack Johnson Blues" by Dave Peyton is a hit. Send 50c, no stamps, to Dave Peyton, 177 N. State St., Chicago, Ill. S. H. Dudley, the actor promoter is doing fine in Washington, D. C. Mr. Dudley writes that he has great surprises in store for the coming season.

SUNSET CAFE OPENS
After contending with various setbacks for several months, Fox and Rifas, proprietors, are ready to introduce the public to their new palatial place of amusement, the Sunset Cafe, 313 E. 35th St, corner Calumet Ave. Their grand opening will be held Wednesday evening, August 3, and it is expected that the public will then have access to the most perfectly appointed cabaret on the South Side. One feature at the Sunset Cafe which commands attention is the refrigeration system which has been installed. Fresh air which has passed over ice is kept constantly pouring into the dance-room, and dancing is made comfortable in the warmest weather. The entire interior has been done with a sunset scheme of decoration, as has the brilliant electric sign which has been added to help make 35th St. one of the greatest White Ways in the country. Sunset Cafe has been opened at a cost of $110,000, according to the proprietors, and sixty-five people will be employed.
The place will open with a top-notch musical revue, featuring Sims' orchestra.
Earl Walker, well known in amusement and sporting circles, has been retained as manager.
MUSICIAN NOTES
At a meeting of Musicians' Local 208 last Sunday the officers recently suspended on charges brought against them by a committee appointed by the local, were reinstated by the organization with a reprimand. The evidence brought out clearly that the gentlemen were not guilty of anything but lack of attention to local laws and its business routine.
An orchestra of fifteen pieces will be engaged for the Pageant of Progress to open at the Municipal Pier July 30th.
Elgar's Orchestra will open their season at Harmon's Dreamland, Saturday, July 30.

HARVARD MAN HURLS BODY 25 FT., 3 IN.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., July 23. Showing a pronounced superiority in every event save the quarter-mile and one-mile runs, the combined track team of Yale-Harvard this afternoon vanquished the Oxford-Cambridge combination in the fifth international meet between these rival universities. According to the rules governing the meet only first places were to count except in the case of a tie, when second places would have decided the issue. But the Americans were anything eventually approaching a tie, and the final reckoning showed that the Americans had won eight of the ten events on the program.
During the course of the meet one world's record was made and six meet marks bettered and one equalled. The world's record was made by Ned Gourdin, Harvard's Negro athlete, in the running broad jump. This full-muscleed, disky warrior of the track hurled himself through the air for a distance of 25 feet 3 inches, breaking the old record of 24 feet $11\frac{1}{4}$ inches made by Peter O'Connor of Ireland at Dublin, Aug. 5, 1901.
Gourdin a Double Winner
For nearly twenty years this mark had withstood the efforts of the world's best. Many youths with sinews of steel have sought to wipe it off the book and write their names in sport's Hall of Fame with one gigantic effort, but, while some have approached it, none ever bettered it until here this afternoon when the Crimson-trimmed husky fairly catapulted himself up and into the figure of a decades old. Incidentally, the 100-word dash also
Even the decisively one-sided victory of the Yale-Harvard team was overshadowed by Gourdin's performance. It was the ninth and next to the last event on the program and the Americans had long since tucked the meet safely away, but interest was still at fever heat. There seemed to be a tenseness in the hot atmosphere that forecast an impending performance of great moment. The 10,000 who sparsely filled the great concrete horseshoe that is Harvard's stadium seemed to sense that Gourdin was about to make that he was about to mimic his body to a record, and his mark probably will remain a target for athletes of coming generations to shoot at, unless he himself betters it before he lays away his soaked shoes for all time.
He had been making good leaps from the start of the event and it was not until he had several times flashed down the runway to the take off and hurried himself through the air that he finally put all his great strength in the one big effort that was to bring him undying glory. He poised himself gracefully and with extreme care at the head of the runway. Accurately he measured the distance to the take off. He was judging his stride.
Like Shot From a Gun
Then, as a great, oppressive silence fell over the spectators, Gourdin started. His sticks flashed in the sunlight and his powerful sticks had carried him to the edge of the jumping pit. He had measured his sticks perfectly. He did not have to tilt or shorten or lengthen his sticks to walk in the pit, body together, and, as he leaped high and far, it looked as if he were a human projectile from some unseen and unheard source. The jump was slowed to the finish of the jump it was obvious that he had either broken or come very close to the record. He needed no announcement to tell the crowd that he had broken the record and gathered in its threat until Announcer Callioh clarioned that Gourdin had made a new world's record. Then it was as if every one in the room cheered.
BILL FORCE
THE BASEBALL PLAYER
Although serving his first year in the Western Circuit, pitcher Force assumed the roll of keeping the Detroit Stars in first place by pitching the first game against Crawford at Kansas City. Force proved a hero in defeat.
upon cheer rolled up and was re-echoked back from other side of the Charles river. Hats torched to the ground as the air creaked loudly. None thought it cared what became of them. The crowd had but one thought—to pay homage to one of the greatest performances in the annals of track and field history.
The meet records that were bettered were made in the 440 yard run, ball-mile, mile, running broad jump, hammer throw and the high jump. The meet record was equalled in
Century Sprint Is Fast.
BACHARACH GIANTS TAKE MEASURE OF ALL CUBANS
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., July 21—Starting at a whirlwind pace in the opening session the Bacharach Giants took the measure of the All-Cuhans, of Havana, Cuba, in the first of a two-game series; score 11-7.
The Atlantic City clan sent across an even half dozen markers before their part of the first stanza was extinguished. Barber opened the contest for the Giants with a triple to right. Marcell's single enabled Barber to score. Pettus was hit by a pitched ball. Lundy reached first base when a play for Marcell at third went for nil. Susini booted Rojo's grounder and Pettus raced home. Pugh sacrificed. Handy lifted to Ramirez. Shively drew a pass, again filling the sacks. Redding singled to center and Lundy and Rojo came home. Barber's second hit of the inning enabled Shively to race across the plate for the sixth run.
Dick Redding started on the hill for the Bacharachs and when he saw that the Connor toilers had the game "sewed up," he relieved himself and sent in "Hooks" Mitchell to complete the job after the fifth, Silva, who did the twirling for the Cubans, received poor support, several virtually sure outs went for hits.
The Cubans made their first scores in the fourth, three runners spiking the rubber. The Bacharachs made four more in their part of the same chapter. In the fifth the Islanders made three more tallies. The locals made a run in the sixth and the Cubans scored one in the ninth. One of the week-day crowds of the season turned out to see the gane. The Pennsylvania Red Caps held an outing to Atlantic City and more than one thousand of the visitors saw the game.
The All-Cubans will collide with the Bacharach Giants this afternoon in the second game of the series. Manager Frigorola promises several changes in his line-up and will probably send Martinez or Sierra to the mound today. Either "Red" Ryan or Richardson will be selected by Manager Redding.

MARCO ATHLETES
LOSE TWO GAMES
Columbus Buckeyes and Wayne Both Trim Dayton Team at Westwood
DAYTON, O., July 24—The Marcos lost both ends of a doubleheader out at Westwood field Sunday afternoon, the Waynes taking their measure in the first tilt by the score of 6 to 4, while the Columbus Buckeyes defeated them in the second fray, 9 to 3.
Bill Tracy hurled a nice game for the winners and although touched up for 13 safeties managed to keep them well scattered with the exception of the final frame. The three Marco pitchers sent to the mound allowed the Waynes but six hits but errors at critical moments, along with the inability of the slabmen to locate the plate, aided in their downfall in this conflict.
Carey secured three hits for the losers, while McClain and Murray were good for two each. Welsh was best with the stick for the Waynes, while Usset snacked in the field.
The Waynes sprang quite a surprise by their victory and showed unexpected strength, especially on defense. The Columbus Buckeyes did not experience much trouble in setting the locals down in the final contest, as the latter were rather tired when time rolled around for the second struggle. Hampter and Britt both worked for the Capital City aggregation and their slants were rather puzzling to the colored lads with the exception of McClaim, who pounded out a pair of doubles and a single. Ineffective pitching was an important factor in deciding this battle in favor of the visitors. The Marcos used three pitchers, none of whom could hold the winners in check. The Buckeyes presented a well balanced outfit and their play drew much applause at various stages of the game.

NEW COLUMBUS CLUB TO BE HERE SUNDAY
The new Columbus, Ohio, club comes here Sunday and will try conclusions with the American Giants at Schorling park. The Olihans have a revised line-up, having recently secured eight of the famous Atlanta Crackers team of players. The new and rejuvenated bunch of patimers now wearing Buckeye colors are according to recent deeds, functioning right up to A1 class. They have won 8 of the last 12 games played, putting over four straight against the Detroit Stars. Wilson, the ace of the pitching staff, never was in better form, and his work argues strong for shut-outs in practically two out of every five starts.
The new men have been worked into the line and they have rounded out a strong and smooth running machine, one, according to the opinion of those who have seen them, that is destined to take a spirited part in the final award of the season's pennant honors. The Ohio team will get in here in time for Saturday game which will be played at Gary, Ind. The American Giants will oppose the Buckeye-Atlanta gang, and as all games count in the league standing, the Saturday contest will be just as fiercely waged as the Sunday game and others of the series. The new and revised Columbus-Atlanta line-up runs as follows: Wesley—rf
Britt—ef
Lloyd—ss
Hudspeth—1b
Thomas—2b
Smith—lf
Davis—3b

Pitchers:

Get In Before The Door Is Closed.
If the black man in America is expecting to learn of the secrets of science, the mysteries of nature and the wonders of art he had better hurry up and seize the manifold opportunities which, such as they are, are now within his reach.
It is absolutely imperative for the dark folk to snatch, seize, convert and carry away all of the education which the white man reluctantly puts within his reach. We say reach because education is not thrust upon him and he cannot just put out his hands and grasp it. He can reach it, however, and "but that a man's reach should exceed his grasp or what's a heaven for." He must toil, agonize and suffer. Education will enable him to think clearly and banish the foolishness and fallacies from his life.
Suppose Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Chicago, Pennsylvania and the other great American Universities would suddenly close their doors to the black people? A serious handicap would hold us back and would require us a long time to overcome. At present we have only a few hundred liberally educated men surely not enough to warrant an absolute divorce from the white man's fountains of learning. We can boast of Howard, Lincoln, Fisk, Atlanta and Wilberforce but these schools do not have the educational facilities of the greater American Universities. We would not be able to count the stars, weight the sun, measure the oceans and chart the skies without the great instruments of science which the white Universities have secured. The black man must wisely gather unto himself knowledge, methods and means which will be used in building up the mental fabric of future generations.
Education means a leading-out, a leading out from ignorance, superstition and fallacy. The black race must be led out and the problem has resolved itself into a question of expediency and diplomacy. The doors of the great white Universities are from all indications slowly but surely closing to the black people. They no longer invite you to Harvard, they skilfully refuse you in many instances at Columbia, they will not allow you to pass entrance examinations at Johns Hopkins, they make life infernal for you at Yale, they openly and insultingly refuse you at Princeton. These are fertile facts for thinkers to draw conclusions. The lines of discrimination are being drawn now where they were never drawn before and where they were always drawn they now are drawn the more."
Howard University is dependent for support from public funds, which includes the white man's money as well as our own and we all know that this great institution receives unwillingly aid from the pale face benefactors. Fisk, Lincoln, Talledega, Morehouse and Atlanta Universities, our own schools, or at least they cater exclusively to us are supported by the charity of philanthropists and church organizations of the Caucasians. Even the majority of the Presidents and Professors are white. Now if the financial support and general good grace of these people is to be suddenly or even if gradually withdrawn the race will stand in a perplexing and embarrassing predicament.
We advise and emphatically insist that the black boys and girls seize upon every possible scintilla of knowledge that they are able to get. The time will come when the little black boys and girls will toddle to them crying to know and to learn the truth and to be free. The black man must diplomatically use every chance that he can get to learn. He must sit on the doorsteps of the great Universities until he gets in. Let him then bring back to us the wonders of which he learns. He must study hard and assimilate his teachings. We need full trained men and women. This present age of specializations makes them indispensable. Let us enter while Opportunity faintly knocks. Let us drink of the Hyperion springs. We will have need of its benefits.

The American Black man's mind cannot help but appreciate the significance of the Liberty Life Insurance Company's success. It is the first Old Line Legal Reserve Insurance Company to be organized and completed by black people in the State of Illinois. This colossal achievement has just been wrought. The State of Illinois has granted this Company a Charter and they have received their license to write Insurance. This Company now stands in a position to serve the teeming thousands of their people whose lives the white companies refuse to insure. Employment will be furnished to hundreds of people who were heretofore denied an opportunity because of their race.
It is in keeping with our policy to give credit where credit is due. The building of the Liberty Life Company was filled with travail and toil. At times only hope steered the efforts of the man Gillespie whose dream energy has made true and substantial. At last the task has been accomplished and we state in passing that another pyramid has been lifted magnificently from the face of the earth. This pyramid is not inspirational to artists and historians alone it is an edifice which will shelter us in time of storm and which we can depend upon to guide the faltering feet of those who aspire to business heights. Success to the Liberty Life. Congratulations to its president, Mr. Frank Gillespie.

The Chicago Journal Mob Masqueraders
There is an outbreak of "Ku-Klux" activities over a good part of the south, though whether the new Ku-Klux Klan has any connection with the events is a matter for conjecture alone. A clergyman was stripped naked, flogged, tarred and leathered for preaching to negroes. A woman was stripped, tarred and leathered, but without the preliminary flogging, presumably because she is accused of bigamy. An ex-service man has been tarred and leathered, an aged farmer stripped and flogged, and other outrages of the same general sort are rumored. All these assaults are committed by gangs of masked men. It seems needless to spend much time masking gangs willilites. To go in masked gangs and maltreat helpless victims is a peculiarly cowardly form of scoundrelism. Assaults on women and on aged men show the mob spirit at its worst, but it is bad enough under any guise.
What is needed is some social evangelist who can convince the backward societies in which such outrages occur that every Ku-Klux outbreak is a menace and a disgrace to the community. It is a menace, because it puts the person of every citizen at the mercy of a mob of masquerading blackguards; a disgrace, because it shows the presence in the community of large numbers of people who have no comprehension of law, decency or fair play. If by some happy chance, one of these gangs should encounter an armed and forewarned man who knew how to shoot the explanation would be easier.
EIGHTH INFANTRY NOTES

Chicago has a real "jewel in the rough" which has been partly polished and neglected. It is a city of a new poet. Her residence obscured by surroundings, her manner peculiarly yet ominous, but her work superb and unforgettable. Her work work, "Black and White Tangled Threads." But the "Two Hundred Poems" which we saw and heard, and the real influence of her that "jewel" had we space at this time to tell you of that two-hour interview and visit which passed as a ten-minute walk up about 100 yards to real influence of the presence of genius upon unsuspecting mediocrity (that's me!). Clubs should wake up about this, and the real influence of Lewis for the "tip." It was O.

Zip Tells the World about Chicago Literati
"Gold, Woman, Birds," he says.
O, listen reader, and let us tell you of a peculiar species of birds. They are of the genus literati, species "Chi". Found in and around the city of Chicago, Michigan in the churches, literary societies and jodge halls on particularly cold days and also when the weather is fairly damp. They are also known for the fun they find in the fest the cool front parlor floors, back windows and parks. At rare intervals the movies can be in large amounts such sea sons in large amounts or artistically brushing be can pull 'em out. They are there to stay until a big circus, or with literature comes along, then, like a swarm of bees they are out and "at 'em, and again like a to remain until cold weather or until damp dreary days draw them forth to the library. The made of the specie can be distinguished by the funny little strides to their mouths and the forward dip to their hats with hands usually shoved deeply into their pockets and affecting their leisurely stride, that's the bird's way of communicating.
The female is recognized only by an expert. They range from the buffy, pretty debaucheanteupring young lady of the tender eastern corner, to the extremely external peacrance (with absolutely no discoverable brains), and from the sour, sad, austere matron and spinster of forboding mien to the beautiful, charming blended matron with a witt as sharp as a tack. But it has been discovered that none of these long frequent leeding grounds where the male literati, species "Chi", which is always dependent on the weather, has been placed in the rear of their heads by some nature fakir, which arrangement automatically turns them from literary entertainments whenever the weather is warm or cool. A few exceptions to the rule and general character may be always found even on hot days but scientists yet accorded character. That is why, O. Reader, I know that all the Chicago literati go to heaven. Positively no literary society "Down Below."

Health Hints
By Dr. Troy Smith
Excessive perspiration of the feet and the skin of the axillae is a most annoying condition during this hot weather, and one that frequently is difficult to control satisfactorily. Besides keeping the parts properly bathed and cool, attention should be given to the clothing and shoes. Rubber-soled shoes are objectionable if there is excessive sweating of the feet. Impenetrable dress shields should likewise be discarded.
A. B.
There is a natural tendency for every individual to have an odor when perspiring freely. The parts of the body that have this peculiar odor are the hair, the axilla or under the arms, the groins or between the thighs, and the feet. To control this odor frequent bathing is necessary. The habitual use of various talcum powders, toilet waters, and perfumes is unhealthy when applied to an unclean body. There are some individuals, who in spite of frequent bathing possess a peculiar odor. For these persons I would recommend the following solution to be used after bathing. A 25 per cent solution of aluminum chloride in distilled water labeled gently on the perforated third day and allowed to dry, will cause a rapid amelioration of the excessive sweating. Three applications are usually sufficient. If the condition recurs, the treatment may be repeated. If this above solution which your druggist can make up causes an itching, a cold cream containing 12 percent boric acid applied to the parts will relieve the condition.
Sweating feet, another annoying hot weather condition, is often relieved by rubbing the feet with pure glycerine. Following are a few formulas which can be dusted upon the feet after bathing to relieve sweating feet. (1) Salicylic acid, one part.
Sanevite acid one part.
Bismuth subnitrate, eight parts.
Zinc stearate, four parts.
(2)
Calylic acid, one part.
Great relief will be found in allaying offensive body odors if the above rules apply.

The Sunday Evening Club of M. C. C. presented the monthly music at Wendell's on the campus of the University of Tennessee, the work of the "Choral King," who is now absent in Nashville, Tenn., attending the convention of musicians. Major N. Clark Smith put on some stunt in conducting his original piece, "The Choral King," and he was conducting "Saint Away to Jesus." It reminds us of a violinist drawing a bow, and the effect was great, and the choral response was greater.
The occasion of the evening was the solo in Inflammants, taken by Mrs. Sylvia Olden (white). She now has the distinction of being one of the three sopranos who have ever completely filled (vocally) this large orchestra, and she is filling the space just as a cornetist or a bugler fills his instrument before emitting the sound. Do you know what we mean? I mean, the music appears in this auditorium, go hear him. He is the only tenor until date that has turned the trick. We believe that James A. Lillard can do so. Some lungs all of those five.
The Sunday meeting of the Young people's Society was well attended at this place. The debate between the young ladies and the young men was a distinctive feature and the musical numbers are being made finer each
Many of the other local singers and players are at the convention. We were not aware of this fact until we noted their absence in the band. We were in the audience. We are back from our vacation.

Legal Hints To Women
By Violette N. Anderson, Atty. at Law
My husband has gone to another city and I have had information that he is living with another woman as her husband...I want
Adultery if you have proof of what you say.
Dear Mrs. Ander-
1950
My husband served in the last war and came home acting very queerly. He was shell shocked and I think he has lost his mind. What can I do about it? Apply to Judge Arnold, 9th floor, County Building, and an observation test will be arranged for him. Dear Madame: A man who owed me quite a large sum of money has gone into bankruptcy and I am told there is no chance for me now to ever get my money. Is that true? Yes, unless he volunteers to pay his obligation to you.
Dear Miss Anderson:—
I have been keeping company with a man for two years and last month he told me if I would come to Chicago we would get married here and make our home. We can come on together, and have been rooming with some friends of his ever since. He won't talk to me now about getting married and my folks at home think we are. Now I am told that he has a wife right here in Chicago and I have proof that he has. What can I do?
He has violated several laws—both of God and man. Consult a lawyer, for the remedies are several, and the punishment severe.
We are overrun with rats in the apartment where I live and the landlord refuses to do anything about it. They are so bad they get up on my child's bed and her finger has been bitten. Can I get any damages for that?
If the landlord has had notice, yes. Consult the Health Department.
New Trinity
New Trinity M. E. Church.
3011 Prairie Avenue.
The above cut is a splendid replica of New Trinity M. E. Church, the race's greatest church. Nearby is Rev G. W. Baber, the minister, and, incidentally the youngest man in the country to pastor a church of the magnitude and importance of New Trinity. Meet him and come out Sunday and hear him. His sermons are short, therefore popular, eloquent, convincing and full of logic. When you leave New Trinity he has given you something to think about. Here are a few truths about the evolution of the activities of this church: Theopolis P. Bryant is a new star on the musical horizon by any means. He accepted the position as director several weeks ago, when the choir numbered about ten members. Last week he requested the trustees, through Chairman Hugh Bradley, to enlarge his choir loit to seat fifty. This is being done. Bryant is New Trinity's wonder man. The great gymnasium, whose physical director is Dr. M. Pryor, now boasts of a membership of sixty. This feat has been accomplished within four weeks. The gym is elaborately fitted up, to be formally dedicated Friday evening, July 29 on which occasion the mayor, States Attorney Crowe and Chief Fitzmorris have tentatively accepted an invitation to be present.
Mr. George McDuncan, the assistant physical director, gave out the following proclamation: "Trinity star, is to meet Merrill Kirkpatrick; George Wright will meet Roy Blakley in a wrestling match. Robert Brown is pitted against him in a fight, and the free, Mr. N. G. Rice, the very able Sunday school superintendent, reports in glowing terms the rapid increase in the membership of the Ridge, who because of the great numbers of little ones whom she personally accompanies to the school each Sunday has become known as the "Merrill School." She greatly missed around the big church is Mrs. L. R. Henderson, who with her beautiful young daughter, Selma, is summering in Denmark. The school party given for Sunday school, the lawn of the faithful of New Trinity, is to leave shortly on her annual vacation. The law party given for Sunday school, the lawn of the faithful of afternoon, the lawn of the great church, was an enjoyable affair for the children—scores were in attendance.

Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures. In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils.
It is rumored and proclaimed upon good authority that a chapter of the Ku Klux Klan has been organized in the University of Chicago. President Harding remarked in a recent address to the students of Lincoln University that education would be the ultimate solution of the race problem. The University evidently is not in accord with that theory, if it was they would not allowed the educational features to become contaminated with such insidious and corrupt institutions as the Ku Klux Klan.
Oberlin College has built and set aside a Jim Crow Dormitory. Oberlin was one of the last of the larger schools to fall into the clutches of color prejudice and race hatred. As a rule these insults are justified on the ground that the sentiment of the alumni required them and it in order to keep up the obligations of the school the alumni must be satisfied. Oberlin and all of the large Universities which attempt to avoid their moral weakness with such flimsy excuses are to be scored and reviled. They have offended the finer sense of art and science.
Mayor Thompson's hand picked Governor, Len Small of Illinois, has been indicted by the grand jury of Sangamon County on charges of embezzling public moneys, conspiracy to defraud the state and operating a confidence game. Governor Small was supported by the black people in Chicago who had been hypnotized by the evil eye of Thompson and Co. This accusation against the Governor has filled his supporters with consternation and dismay. We wonder how the black people feel now since they were forewarned. They will realize as usual that they think too late.
We count eighty-nine of the Black Man's Newspapers complaining against the actions of the Republican party. They all object to the authority which the Lily White Republicans are receiving. In Norfolk, Va., at the Virginian meeting of the Republicans, no black man was allowed to attend and two were threatened with bodily harm if they did not retire from the meeting. Last summer the Chicago Whip was the only paper of its kind which complained. Is the Whip one year in thought ahead of its contemporaries or is it that the other papers did not have the courage to come out and complain? We all know that they were all writing pretty lines and dictating them to the Grand Old Party.
the New Trinity, Rev. Baber and his officials are making preparations for a great platform meeting in the afternoon. The speakers, among the most prominent in the city and state, will be announced next week. The meeting is to be the re-opening of New Trinity.
