BANDIT LURED BY GOLD POSES AS "SICK MAN"
South Side Miracle Man
Murdered As He Prays
For Healing Power.
Lured by romantic stories of wealth
stored up in pots of gold, a lone bandit,
massacring as a sick man, killed
the rev, E. F. S. Hart, a faith healer, in his rooms at 4809 Dearborn St and made his escape Monday afternoon. With the bandit disappeared the roman-week miraculous ice body — the pots of gold.

stories were spread abroad of the
wonders of his faith cure. Patients
came to him in streams. He is said
to have charged a moderate fee for
each treatment, but by the number of
his patients amassed a small fortune.
Was Fascinated by Gold.
The faith healer is said to have been fascinated by the yellow glint of gold coins, exchanged his wealth into gold money as fast as it came in. He is said to have kept it in the traditional clay pots.
Bandit Was "Sick."
Late Monday afternoon a man areed asking for the faith healer, saying that he was terriblely sick. The healer began to pray with him. Shortly after the telephone rang, and the minister went into the next room to answer it, and on returning, found the "sick" man prowling through his desk. Two shots in quick succession were heard from the outside, and a moment later the bandit dashed out bearing a bundle. The minister was found lying dead on the floor. The bandit had spurned several pieces of paper money found lying around. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Mary Hart, and his daughter, Hattie Davis Hart. The body was taken to the B. C. Cyrus Morgue.
HOUNDS LEAD POSSE TO WHITE MAN'S HOME
LITTLE ROCK; Ark, Sept. 17.—Elmer Hawlett, white, a sawmill employee of Ironton, was arrested early this week when bloodhounds led a posse to his home. The hounds were tracking the assailant of Mrs. M. F. Gibson, white, of Sweet Home. She had told the police that a burly Black man weighing 180 pounds had attacked her.
Baptists May Hold Only One Office
Dr. E. C. Morris, who was recently re-elected president of the National Baptist Convention, as his first official act, issued a ruling to the effect that hereafter no individual will be eligible to serve in two official capacities. This ruling was aimed at secretaries who had been engaged in subsidiary capacities. Dr. Morris was elected for a new period, the completion of which will find him serving twenty-seven years in the same capacity.
Miss Mary Brooks, 25, 3154 Federal St, died Sept. 12 at the Ft. Dearborn Hospital, where she had been taken following her poisoning by carbolic acid. It is thought she drank the acid with suicidal intent.
"A PAPER WITH A POLICY" The Chicago Whip AN INDEPENDENT WEEKLY
Army Officer Quits Klan When He Finds It Not 100% American
The mask of secrecy has been torn from the Ku Klux Klan by the Press Publishing Co. (The New York World), and in a series of articles now being distributed among metropolitan newspapers, exposes the national menace of the "Invisible Empire."
Investigators have amassed an amazing amount of information concerning the Klan, including the ritual and the names and addresses of the officers of the organization throughout the country.
It is charged that memberships in the Ku Klux are now peddled from house to house by saloonmen who are called "Kleugles." The stage manager to whom they report is called the "King Kleagle." He in turn reports to the "Grand Gooblin" who is nothing more or less than a District Manager. $10.00 is charged for each membership.
Bound To Obedience
It is pointed out that each member of the Klan is not initiated as in other organizations, but is naturalized, with an oath which binds them to obedience to an "Emperor" or life.
In a report made to "Emperor" Simmons on July 2 last, Imperial Kilegale Clarke, who still spells his own name with a "c" instead of a "k," wrote:
"In the past three of four months we have added to our membership a little more than 48,000 members. In all my years of experience in organization work I have never seen anything to equal the clamor throughout the Nation for the Klan. The headquarters for the domain chiefs are located in Washington. In diarapolis, Denver, Dallas, Houston and Los Angeles. In all these cities our investigators are working eight hours a day, and in most instances are three and four months behind their lists of applicants.
"Completely Camouflaged".
"Although we are located in all the cities named," the Imperial Kleagle added, "with magnificent office forces on the job, the enemy" has yet to locate us; even though they have made diligent search. We are completely camouflaged in each of these cities, and we are not in the immediate vicinity if we are located (i.e. discovered) any city where headquarters have been established."
Army Invaded by Ku Klux
It has also been learned that salesmen of the Klan have been peddling memberships in the army and navy of the United States. One officer in the army, finding that although the Klan boasted 100 per cent Americanism, he could not conscientiously remain a member of both the army and the Ku Klux Klan. 'He is Captain Henry Fry, of Chattanooga.
Officer Sends in Resignation.
Captain Fry therefore sent in his resignation from the Ku Klux Klan with the following letter:
"You are hereby notified that I have this day voluntarily withdrawn as a citizen of the invisible empire, Knights of the Loyal Order of the Eagle, for longer. Consider myself in any way connected with the organization of the months up to the day in the Invisible Empire, and months later, were sent as a Kleagle. I have reached the conclusion that your proposition is a historical fraud; that it is a money-making scheme, and that you are engaged in an evil propaganda in promoting unwarranted religious and racial hatred against the American people, and that in the interest of decent Americanism, it should be

Kicked Out Of G.O. P., Politicians Call National Meeting
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 17.—The rising tide of resentment against the Republican party is gradually nearing its crest, according to observations made by politicians throughout the country. As a result, a national meeting has been called to meet in Washington simultaneously with the reassembling of Congress. It is intended to ask the Republican party plainly just where the Race stands, and getting an unattavorable reply, to take steps for future action.
Started in Virginia
The movement to demand recognition was started in Virginia, where the "fily-white" organization refused to recognize regularly elected delegates and forcibly ejected them from the convention. Joseph R. Pollard is directing the light in that state, and John Mond, the director of Richmond, has come forward as candidate for governor. A full state ticket has been put in the field.
New Party in Louisville
Dissatisfied with treatment accorded voters in Louisville, a new party has been formed, known as the Lincoln Independent party. A full city and county ticket has been put into the field, Editor Warley is at the head of the movement, and predicts that the new party will poll 100,000 votes in that city.
The unrest has reached as far down as Georgia, where a full state ticket has been put into the field from the government down.
The action of the insurgents is due to the fact that the Republican party has generally ignored pre-election promises throughout the country, and has thrown them, bag and baggage, completely out of the party.
WHITE WOMAN HIRED MAN TO KILLHERHUSBAND
KINSTON, N. C. Sept. 17—M murder plot without rival in the animals of North Carolina has been unearthed in the confession of Wright Rouse, a middle aged farmer, who admits that he slew William Whitley, white, on August 3.
Rouse when arrested stoutly contended that he killed Whitley acting under orders of Mrs. Sarah Whitley, and Thomas Hayes, white, Mrs. Whitley's lover. Hayes and Mrs. Whitley at first denied the story, but now admit that they had also planned to put Hayes' wife out of the way.
According to the official story, Rouse killed Whitley and then placed his body upon the railroad tracks.
Hobo Bites Off Benefactor's Lip
James Perry, 40, 528 E. 39th St., is in the Provident Hospital with his lower lip bitten completely off as a result of a fight with one Ellis, whom he had given room and board free for two and one-half months. When Perry ordered Ellis from his home, Ellis engaged him in a fight, and hit Perry's lower lip entirely away. He then escaped.
FUGITIVE 15 YEARS CAPTURED
FLORENCE. Ma., Sept. 17—Chester Carroll, after fifteen years of freedom, during which time he was sought for the killing of Brooks Tilden has been arrested. The widow was killed at asfestival at the Springfield in 1906, when the bullet intended for another man accidently struck him.
DR. BOYDFATALLY SHOT AT BAPTIST CONVENTION
Intercepts Bullet Fired By Jealous Husband For Other Man.
NEW ORLEANS, La., Sept. 17.—The Rev. Dr. J. W. Boyd of Nashville, Tenn., and Mrs. Janie Miller, a New Orleans woman, are dying at the Charity Hospital here as the result of a shooting affray which occurred at the closing session Sunday night of the National Baptist Convention here. Scores of persons, barely missed serious injury in the panic which ensued among the 2,000 persons crowded into the auditorium.
Mrs. Miller's Husband Held
David Miller, the woman's husband, is held for the shooting, the motive of which, the police say, was jealousy. According to their reports all the nice bullets used by Miller were intended to kill Robert Boyd was the victim or a stray shot.
Hold No Hope for Recovery.
Rev. Bowl is secretary of the Baptist Board of Education. He is wounded in the breast and at Charity Hospital tonight was said to have no chance of recovery.
The police have been unable to verify a report that another man was shot and carried away by friends in an automobile.
The big chorus of singers, which has played a prominent part in the convention, sang to quiet the crowd, and officers of the organization circulated among the throng exhorting all to be calm.
At the hospital Mrs. Miller made a statement that her husband had been following her all day and that she went to the tabernacle to escape him.
JUDGE ORDERS PROBE OF WHIPPING OF GIRLS
GREENWOOD, S. C., Sept. 17—Judge C. C. Featherstone has ordered an investigation of the public floggings of Jessie and Julia Valentine by a mob of white men here last week. In his charge to the grand jury he said: "The city officials know the men, or some of them, who took the prisoners from their custody. There are others who know the facts, and you as grand jurors have the power to Summon and force to come before you and testify any witnesses whom you please. I will see to it that in your investigation you have the full power of the law to support you. You will decide when to make this investigation, and I am going to authorize you to take all of the time which you may regard as necessary." "You will find out the facts, the man who engaged in this alleged lawful enterprise and then report these facts to the Court, together with the names of the witnesses. The necessary indictment will be prepared and the alleged violators of the law will be put on trial."
MYSTERY LOOMS AROUND
GIRLS' DEATH
Hidden in the sand and weeds in a vacant lot near 37th street and Vincennes avenue the dead body of a beautifully colored girl has been found. The girl was clad expensively and showed no traces of violence. At the present the body has not been identified. It lies in the morgue of the Fort Dearborn hospital. Foul play is suspected.

Jackson To Offer Anti-Ku Klux Resolution
On Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock the Editor of the Chicago Whip called at the offices of Major R. R. Jackson, Alderman of Chicago's Second Ward. The Alderman being a Colored man, was asked if he would introduce a resolution into the city council condemning the activities of the Ku Klux Klan and scoring their presence in the city. Mr. Jackson, with his characteristic smile, answered: "Go draw up the resolution, frame it without prejudice and bitterness, and I will present it at the next meeting of the city council which takes place on the 19th of September."
Major Jackson stated that he was always smiling behind that smile was a grim fighting spirit and that the actions of the city councils in New York, Philadelphia and Cleveland could not be ignored and Chicago would not tolerate the Ku Klux Klan if his influence in the city council was felt. The public waits with bated breath for the proposed resolution.
SPIRIT MEN AWAY FROM MOF
JESUP, Ga., Sept. 17—Joe Jordan, and James Harvey were spirited out of this city immediately after their conviction on charges of attacking a white woman. It was felt that they were in danger of being lynched.

"Linc" Johnson Loses Fight For Appointment
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 17.—"Line" Johnson has lost his fight for office, and will not be confirmed as Register of Deeds for the District of Columbia, if the report of the subcommittee to reject his nomination carries weight with the Senate District Committee when returned to that body.
It is reported that the sub-committee, to whom the charges were referred for investigation, has reported that his confirmation should be refused.
President Harding sent the name of Henry Lincoln Johnson to the Senate recently to be appointed Recorder of Deeds. This appointment was supposed to be a reward for "faithful service."
Upon the presentation of Johnson's name before the Senate there was considerable opposition to his confirmation, this opposition coming from both races. The Senate refused to confirm the appointment and referred it to the Senate Committee on District Affairs which in turn referred it to a sub-committee of that committee.
The sub-committee's recommendation that confirmation be refused is said to have killed the Georgia "Peach's" chances.

'COMMITTEEOF5 CLAIMS MORONS INFEST SOCIETY
Third Series Of Letters Denounces Moral Degenerates Who Star As Entertainers.
Never before in the history of Chicago's social life has any movement created such tremendous interest as has the mysterious Committee of Five's attempt to disinfect and de-louse society.
It is the sole topic of conversation wherever men and women congregate. Men of affairs to whom social worries ordinarily appear as a termite in their teapot are giving it as much attention as the most dyed-in-the-wool social butterfly.
To Reveal Committee's Identity
Two questions are on every lip, First, who compose the Committee of Five? Second, whom are they hitting next?
This newspaper announces that its investigators are working on several clues, at least one of which, it can be said with certainty will reveal the identity of this mysterious "committee." It can be safely said, that in an early issue of the Whip, the identity of the Committee of Five will be exposed, and they will be called upon to substantiate their charges.
Attack Musical Artists
Letters were sent this week to social leaders by the Committee of Five denouncing the employment of certain men as solosists and entertainers at social functions who are known to be morons and moral degenerates. Especially viriolite is the attack upon a certain well known baritone, who is very frequently in evidence where solos are required. Not only is he well known in Chicago, but frequently sings in other cities. He was the most prominent singer at a recent national conference held by a religious body at St. Louis. In the words of the Committee of Five, "No morality can ever be expected to rest in Chicago society as long as it is inflicted with creatures of this type." It is said of him that he was once attacked by a white fireman who broke a pitcher over his head for indecent proposals. The second individual of this same type is associated with a music store on State street, near 36th place. He also is in much evidence where music is needed it is said of him that he be seen almost nightly cruising along Michigan avenue, between 35th and 39th streets, in search of prey. He is also said to be a constant visitor at a dive at a constant visitor at a dive at State streets. The third entertainer who is being attacked has the enviable reputation of having been seen to weep openly in public through haplures because one of his victims had deserted him for more fruitful fields.
Repeat Warning
Another feature of the letters sent this week is the repetition of the warning sent out last week against the recognition of a certain school teacher, who, the Committee of Five say, outraged decency by marrying a notorious underworld figure. Another was sent to a well known lawyer's wife who was the guest of this school teacher while visiting in the East. It is said that she had been warned by the Committee not to do this.
Society was also denounced this week in several anonymous letters for accepting into its folds a certain woman who was "landlady" in a questionable resort in Canada. This woman is the wife of a leading business man, who himself was roped in some time ago by Federal officers on charges of illegally storing whiskey in his place of business. He has also been placed in the limelight recently in other startling disclosures. An indictment is said to hang over his head at the present time.

U.S. HEALTH DEPT TO GIVE SERIES OF LECTURES
Sex education is coming to the forefront in these latter days, because people are just beginning to realize the terrible ravages of venereal diseases. These diseases are oftimes the tragic result of neglect on the part of responsible agencies to give wide public to trustworthy information on the subject. Parents and teachers must prepare to give their growing children the proper training on the fundamental facts of life in order that they shall not fall into mishaps through ignorance or misinformation.
The Chicago Urban League, in cooperation with Dr. Ralph Stewart of the U. S. Public Health Service, and Dr. Franklin O. Nichols of the American Social Hygiene Association, is arranging a series of meetings at which the two gentlemen named will lecture on the subject both to the public and to special groups. The lectures will be adapted to mixed audiences and will be accompanied by moving picture views. Those who wish information and the members of special groups in public life who realize the value of such an effort as this and who would welcome suggestions as to the best manner of disseminating information along these lines, are invited to attend the meetings. The places, dates and subjects will be announced later.

FIVE COLLEGES IN NORTH DRAW COLOR LINE
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 17. In his attempts to gain admission to Northern colleges, George Robinson, Jr., a graduate of Dunbar High School, has found that five prominent Northern schools are now refusing admission to students on account of color. Young Robinson wrote to Williston and Worcester academies in Massachusetts, and one in Maine and New Jersey each, all of which refused him admission. The fifth school was Tilton Institute, in New Hampshire. The dean of that institution, mistaking Robinson for a white man, wrote him: "Knowing that you are from the South, it may interest you to know that we do not accept Negro students. We therefore accept your application with pleasure."

TO THE CITIZENS OF CHICAGO
I wish to state that a number of leading citizens called upon me to accept the General Chairmanship of the Fort Dearborn Hospital and Training School for Nurses in their Fund-Raising campaign for $100,000. I hesitated for some time, owing to the many business interests with which I am connected, that require my personal attention, and I was loath to accept the honor at this time, but after listening to their most worthy and human appeal, I investigated the institution, and the man who were directors and advisory members of the board, and found them some of the prominent business men residing in the immediate community, in whom the management could safely be entrusted for the benefit of the masses, second to none, and that the Fort Dearborn Hospital and Training School for Nurses, being a real public institution, controlled by public spirited men for the public good, with a charter, not for profit, and not owned by physicians, have a right to appeal to the public at large for funds to carry on the work of the institution of which a large part is charitable. Therefore, I consented to the General Chairman of the campaign, and have surrounded myself with many of the leading white and colored men and women to carry on this movement.
Therefore, I now ask and desire loyalty and co-operation from the colored men and women as well as the white people who can be served in the area of this institution for their hearty support. I have: every reason to believe that my request will be granted and that a Greater Fort Dearborn Hospital and Training School will become a reality within the next thirty days, and that it will stand out as a monument to the Community's Progress.

PHILADELPHIANS PREPARING FOR BIG WORLD FAIR
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 14. The Philadelphia Autumn Fair Association, embracing in its membership most of the leading Colored men and women of this city, perceiving the need of not only acquainting the Caucasian with the historical, educational, industrial and Commercial progress of the Negro and his advance in the arts and sciences, but the absolute necessity of showing to colored people everywhere what each one is doing of a noteworthy character in his particular line, formed themselves into a corporate body.
In 1926, the Sesqui-Centennial, or the largest world's fair the world has ever seen is to be held in Philadelphia. Heretofore on such occasions the Negro exhibition has been the last thought of by the promoters, and in consequence their exhibits have been incomplete and set off in some remote corner. In order to remedy this condition the Autumn Fair Association was formed with the purpose of holding an Autumn Fair annually, so as to insure the most creditable Negro exhibition in the world's history at great cost. To this end the City Council has generously appropriated $10,000 for the first Autumn Fair to be held in Philadelphia this fall—October 16-27. This sum will be used largely in meeting expenses of installing exhibits.
The exhibition is to be a Panorama of Progress, of Fifty Years of Race Development, and will embrace spectacular and educational pageants, parades, amusements, band concerts, baby contests, community singing with 1,000 voices, athletic contests, etc. This exhibition is not limited to residents of Philadelphia or Pennsylvania, but will include the handwork and creditable productions of Negroes from all parts of the world.
Mr. Beresford Gale, member of the Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce, a prosperous business man of large experience, is the president of the Autumn Fair Association. Mr. E. T. Atwell, for many years business agent at Tuskegee, and at present National Director, work among Colored people Community Service, is National Director. Mr. Walter W. H. Casselle, leading undertaker, is the treasurer; Dr Charles A. Lewis, prominent physician is secretary and chairman of publicity
The Commercial Museum, containing 88,000 square feet of floor space, the post ideal exhibition floor in America, has been secured. Persons who have accomplished any kind of creditable work suitable for exhibit purposes are urged to send in their exhibits at once. Five thousand dollars ($5,000.00) in prizes will be given to the successful contestants, or those displaying the

ORGANIZE FOR IMPROVEMENT OF GRAND BLVD
The residents of Grand Boulevard from 35th to 39th streets, have made the first step to form a much needed association of interest for the protection and improvement of their property, and a preliminary organization meeting is scheduled to take place Friday evening, August 16, at the parliors of the Appomatox Club, 3632 Grand Blvd.
The importance of this move on the part of the residents of Grand Blvd, cannot be discounted in view of the many bombings that have taken place and in view of the fact that it is highly essential for all of the Black people who have secured property on this beautiful thoroughfare to take every step to make their property holdings more valuable.
This union of interests will beyond question make for the improvement and protection of all and will serve as an example such as the Pyramid Improvement Association in the adjoining neighborhood.
PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESS ORGANIZATION IS MADE PERMANENT
PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESS ORGANIZATION IS MADE PERMANENT
NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 17.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today made public the text of a cablegram sent by Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, Secretary of the Pan-African Congress, which stated that the sessions of the Congress were being attended by delegates from thirty countries, and that a permanent organization of the Congress had been effected.
The cablegram reads as follows: J. W. Johnson, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York.
Seven sessions successful. Thirty Countries. Audiences two thousand. Permanent organization.
At the session in London, England, Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois read the manifesto of the Congress which protests against colored people being treated as uncivilized, and argues that the experiments of Negro self-government in Haiti and Liberia, and of the mulatto democracies in South America have not been failures. The manifesto demands enfranchisement based on educational qualifications alone, and urges that it is the duty of the world to assist in every way the advancement of backward and suppressed groups of mankind.
SUPREME COURT WRIT CANNOT HALT ELAINE EXECUTIONS
WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.—Execution of the six farmers, convicted of murder in connection with the Elaine (Ark.) riots of two years ago which has been set for Sept. 23 cannot be prevented or deferred through filing with the clerk of the United States Supreme Court of an application for a writ of certiorari, officials of the court said today.
Court officials, when advised that application for a writ had been forwarded by their counsel from Little Rock, Ark., pointed out that the court does not convene until Oct. 3, and consequently before action could be taken on the application the order for execution would have been carried out.
The only Federal judicial action which would operate to stay the execution, court officials said, would be an order for a stay issued by a Justice of the Supreme Court upon showing by the condemned men's counsel.

10TH CAVALRY NOT TO BE DEMOBILIZED
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 17.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today made public the text of a letter written by the Adjutant General on September 2nd, stating that no order had been given to demobilize the Ninth and Tenth Cavalry as had been reported.
This was occasioned by an article in the Washington Evening Star of August 19, carrying the following news:
"Sweeping changes in reorganization of all cavalry units of the Army, placing the second Cavalry Division, comprising the 3d and 4th brigades and the 3d and 4th Machine Gun squadrons, on the inactive list and demobilizing units of the 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th and 15th Cavalry regiments, were ordered today by the War Department."

Lewis stands third in line of distinguished Chicago directors. Number one lady conductor in absence of Mme. Della Ridgeway en tour McLaine. Chicago holds about three thousand trained choral singers. These of the race alone. The city also boasts of J. Wesley Jones, Jas. A. Mundy, Magnolia Lewis and Madame Peyton, all superb conductors; Samuel McAlpine, Jas. A. Lilliard and John Taylor, then there are a host of soloists who might "get by" with the trick, therefore it is regrettable that the thousands of visitors to the city attending the three great conventions during the week were not presented with best choral organizations under one of these premier conductors. A certain affair reminded music lovers of a man dressed in evening clothes—and also barefooted. Poor judgment, we'll say! It is not our aim to knock anybody—let their own work do it. The rule with a chorus stands good with an instrument; first a good instrument, then a good performer—else both fail to show up.

As a result the following letter addressed to Senator Wadsworth by the Adjutant General was forwarded to the offices of the National Association for the Advancement of. Colored People:
"No orders have been issued to demobilize the 9th and 10th Cavalry. The writer probably misunderstood an order to demobilize several troops of these two colored regiments and of all white regiments. As a result of the reorganization and reduction of the army, all regiments, white and colored, have been reduced from fifteen troop regiments to eight troop regiments. In addition, three white Cavalry regiments are being placed on the 'Inactive List.'
"The 9th and 10th Cavalry will remain 'Active' and be organized exactly like all white cavalry regiments and an additional colored machine gun troop will be maintained in the Philippines."

A'S DIVIDE WITH ST. LOUIS GIANTS IN DOUBLE HEADER
Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 14. — The A. B. C.'s and St. Louis Giants divided a twin bill at Washington park Sunday before the largest crowd the A. B. C's have played before here this season, winning a pitchers' duel in the opener, 1 to 0, and losing the second, 8 to 6, the 6 o'clock closing law stopping the game at the end of the seventh inning. Jeffries and Drake both hurled airtight ball in the opener but the latter wabbed just a trifle in the seventh and the A. B. C's chased over the lone tally of the game. The fielding of Charleston, Holloway and Day featured this game.
The Giants gained an early lead in the second, driving Mahoney to cover and pounding McClure for a while after he took up the job. After the second inning, however, he was master of the situation. The same teams play again at 3 o'clock. Scores:

CUBANS EVEN UP SERIES,
WIN 5 TO 2
Cuban Stars evened up their series with the Detroit Stars by taking Monday afternoon's game, 5 to 2.
LaBuce, pitching "ace" of the team from the island, was in superb form and allowed the home team only six hits which he kept well scattered.
Cooper opposed and was taken for 11 safeties which netted his opponents five runs, plenty for the victory. When the Stars went into the last inning they were scoreless but a late rally netted two markers averaging a shutout.
The game was well played, only one error being made, that being against Riggins. Numerous brilliant plays were produced during its progress.
Tuesday will be ladies' day at Mack park where the Cubans and Stars stage the third game of their series. Score: Det. Stars...0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2-2 6 1

MONARCHS LOSE ANOTHER MONARCHS LOSE CLOSE CONTEST TO BUCKEYES GAME TO BUCKEYES
It is a significant fact that many of the fighters of the Race who should be given just recognition for the championship in the various weights are now planning a new course of action.
Several of these are not alone better men than any of those of like class who are continually avoiding a ring showdown but in a few instances are far superior to those who are in the class. This fact is now being discussed by leading promoters. An immediate action is being planned to bring matters to a finish or a positive match within the squared circle instead of the method now being used to ignore these fighters. In several instances where there was clear superiority shown by past ring performances, and general high record, there could be but one reason why these fighters of the Race are prevented from bringing the matter to a showdown.
For instance, it is an acknowledged fact by experts of the game that Harry Willis, heavyweight Negro pugilist, is by far superior to Jack Dempsey; Kid
MONARCHS LOSE ANOTHER CONTEST TO BUCKEYES
Kansas City, Sept. 11.—A single by Rile with two out in the ninth drove in Smith with the winning run, the Columbus Buckeyes again defeating the Monarchs, 3 to 2. Smith had tripled his way on to start the inning.
Rogan hurled for the Monarchs and pitched himself out of several tight holes, but he failed to escape in the ninth.
The third series will be played today. Either Donaldson or Currie will hurl for the home club.

Inianapolis, Ind., Sept. 14.—The A. B. C.'s won the third of a five game series from the St. Louis Giants here Monday, by a score of 13-4. With the score 4-3 against them in the eighth the A.s hammered Meyer, for 8 hits which netted them 10 runs. Stevens the A.'s young southpaw, pitched splendid ball and was given fine support.
POLLARD AND WILLIAMS TO PLAY HERE
Chicago football fans will soon have the rare treat of seeing Fritz Pollard, famous Brown star, who is now playing with the Akron Giants, and "ink" Williams, all eastern and a Brown University star now playing with the Hammond Athletic Club, in action on the gridiron in Chicago.
As these professional football teams are composed of the country's best football stars, the scheduled games will be well worth seeing aside from the fact that the mighty Pollard and terrible "Ink" will show their batch of artful football tricks.
BUCKNER SOME PROPHET
Three months ago, Bill Buckner, former White Sox trainer, in his wise old manner, predicted that the New York Giants and New York Yankees would play rings around Pittsburgh, Boston and other contenders for the glory flag in their respective leagues and would face each other in New York for the world's championship. Hugh Fullerton and others have their ambitions as prophets in the baseball world but Buck can give them cards and spades picking the winners. Naturally. He writes for The Whip.
Norfolk, the light heavyweight, is better than either Carpentier or Gibbons. This latter fact is in a position of certain conviction among the authorities and general critics. In fact, large sums of money are waiting to back the Kid against either of these two last stated, with a reasonable assurance of easy victory, and the other a decision without reasonable protest.
Now in the case of Kanama Joe Gans, a famous referee made the statement at the ringside of a recent fight, the Dempsey-Carpentier match: "I will be willing to lay $25,000 that Panama Joe Gans can put it over either Johnny Wilson, the mid, champ, or any one near his class."
For, and in view of this sentiment in high places, and the existing prejudice which is barring or handicapping these and many other Negro fighters, several of these are contemplating and even planning to go to Europe and gain fresh honors and laurels and then return to this country and force the hand of their enemies in the shape of prejudicial promoters and "pussyfooting fighters."
MONARCHS LOSE CLOSE
GAME TO BUCKEYES
Kansas City, Sept. 12. -The Monarchs suffered their fifth straight defeat Saturday, losing to the Columbus Buckeyes, 1 to 4. Bell, who started on the mound for the local club, had one bad inning, the fifth, when hits coupled with poor fielding on the part of his mates was productive of four tallies.
The same teams will play a double-header today, the first game starting at 2 o'clock. "Cannonball" Rile will pitch one of the games for Columbus, while Donaldson and Rogan are the choices of the Monarchs. Score:

I know you know that young lady who had to go off in the woods all by herself at the Assembly Picnic? Oh you must know her because she wore such pretty shoes and had such small feet. Well, those pretty shoes and small feet caused her to go off into the woods by herself. It took her an hour to get those shoes back on.
Oh, you must know those parlor hounds and lounge lizzards who seem to be able to stay in anybody's house all day long and more than half the night if there is a good sofa around? Oh, you must know them because they have been all the rage this summer as most of the summer girls seemed to have preferred this type to the rest as others came and left while the lounge lizzards seemed to stay on forever.
I know you know that lady who sat upon her front steps after her beau had left and fell asleep? Well, she awoke with a start when the milk man put the milk in her lap at 4:30 a.m. Now she says goodnight on the inside of the house. Mother insisted on it.
You certainly must know that engaging young man from the east who has mentioned engagement to several of the visiting girls? Well, he takes pains not to mention anything about marriage but merely talks about being engaged. Some of them fell for it, but came out all right when they com-

RUBE HAS TEAM OF HITLESS WONDERS
RUBE HAS TEAM OF HITLESS WONDERS
(By the Bystander.)
The facts of the causes leading to the present high standing of the leading team of the league are being discussed throughout the baseball world. It is a paramount feature that Rube's team now standing at the top of the league is due to a few outstanding truths which are shining in their path. For instance, the team, like the old White Sox, are asked for their eligibility to the title of "hitless wonders" but, nevertheless, at cannot be denied that their ability to put over the high spots of inside ball is not equalled by any team in the league. A view of the runs are pulled over the home side by their immitable squeeze play. The team in such cases working with clock like precision of both mental and physical efforts.
Considering that there is but one truly outstanding star on the team namely, Torrentite, who is acknowledged to be a strong factor in upholding the high mark attained, but after noting all the points possible by which the team could have reached this position there remains but one single fact deserving highest commendation: Rube's baseball sense is responsible for the present position.
pared notes with several others who had had the same experience.
I know you know that "flat" in Indiana Avenue, where great excitement reigned Saturday night? Well, there was no murder committed. The shots heard by all in the neighborhood were only a few bottles of home brew that went off without warning as they stood in the window near the bedside of the "proprietor" of that flat. Never let home brew work by itself. It is like a woman, it requires attention.
I know you know the new rival of the socializing lawyer? Oh, you must know him because you see him almost as much as you see the other. Socializing Lawyer No. 1 will have to watch his step or some of his laurels will be taken away by Socializing Lawyer No. 2.
I know you know the lady who has such bewitching curls? Oh, you must know her because you must have speculated too as to whether they are real or "unreel." Well, the question is settled. She left most of them in a taxi cab the other night. Nosey heard her calling the taxi office enquiring about them. You know reel curls cost real money.
I know you must know about that beautiful triangle in society's big life? Oh, you must have heard about it. Well, two parts of that triangle will soon separate. Gossips Row says that the lady will be the loser as both legs of the triangle are married. The lady says, "Oh how beautiful it was while it lasted."
If You See It In The Whip, It Is True.

BENNIE BUTLER NAMES MOST VALUABLE ATHLETES
By Bennie Butler.)
A discussion is afoot as to which of the many Colored athletes has been of the most service to the Race in helping to establish a place for us in public opinion. Who, of the many champions produced by the Afro-Americans, has been looked upon as a real representative of the darker members of this, our glorious country?
"That is the question.
Almost every one of the numerous standard bearers has his followers who contend for their champion. But facts are what really count, and not partisanism.
Jack Johnson, the great pugilist who defeated such notable men as Tommy Burns, Jim Jeffries, Jack O'Brien and Stanley Ketchel, and was the recog-
nized world's heavyweight champions, heads the list. Then follow other champions, Joe Cans, George Dixon, Fred Pollard and Sol Butler, with here and there a ball player mentioned. The professional athlete leads the list and seems to have the call with the populace. But has the professional athlete a just claim to the honors?
For years, boxing (prize fights) has been under a ban, a despised and discredited pastime. And much of the odium cast on the many art has been because of the Negro's phenomenal success in the squared circle. No list of prize fighters would be representative of the game's best that did not list two-thirds of the men named as Negroes. The nation's best were wont to say prize fighters were on a level with dog fights, or even lower. And as for horse racing, in the days of slavery every Southern gentleman had his Negro jockeys and stable attendants. So, on the whole, the professional Negro athlete has meant little to the Race. People were ready, and with some resemblance of truth, to discredit a fighter's achievements, if he happened to be Black.
One of the leading newspapers of America, the New York American (New York City), pictured Jim Jeffries and Jack Johnson as a gorilla, a tiger and a snake in the order named. The editorial following was to the

effect that the snake could whip the tiger, the tiger the gorilla, the gorilla the Negro, and the Negro the white man. But this was because the white man had developed his brain instead of bestial strength. In other words, the white man was at the top, the Negro next, and the others in the order named.
But when athletes like J. P. Taylor of Pennsylvania, Clarence Matthews of Harvard, Fred Pollard of Brown, Binga Dismond of an Illinois institution, and Sol Butler of Dubuque, together with scores of others, and more coming every day, the white American was forced to recognize us as a prominent factor in the nation's progress.
Now, the three athletes believe have been of the greater benefit to us are John P. Tayler, the old Pennsylvania quarter miler inter-collegiate champion; Howard P. Drew, the national 100 and 220 yard dash champion of recent years, and Sol Butler, the recognized world's broad jump champion of 1919-20.
Few of the present day followers of athletics know much about Taylor. But the great Pennsylvania athlete established a place in the heart of the Pennsylvania faculty that did much to lift the ban on Negro students at the famous old school. And John P.'s gentlemanly conduct on and off the field while a member of the American Olympic team of 1908 at London, England, placed us on a higher plane in the European's eyesight.
Howard P. Drew, known in the East as "The Springfield Flier," was a favorite among the elite of the big white universities. Drew was one of the most likeable chaps that ever walked, and for that reason one of the most popular of the Colored athletes. The last time I met the great little runner was in Paris. He was in charge of the athletes (all white) who were in training for a series of athletic events prior to the big inter-allied games. Drew has done a great deal to eliminate the prejudice against us. Sel Butler, one of the greatest all-around athletes, expired and startled the athletic field, leading a field that the white athletes thought to No. 1 grow would even qualify in the, running broad jump. His athletic record, gentlemanly deportment and genial disposition has done much to raise us in the world's estimation. Sol's athletic life is too well known by the public and his decoration by the King of Montenegro meant a world of prestige to us.

LINCOLN COACH ISSUES CALL FOR PRACTICE
LINCOLN UNIVERSITY, Sept. 17, 1921. The fireworks of the nineteen twenty-one season commenced at Lincoln University on Wednesday, September 14. Coach Shellburne issued the call for all candidates to report at the University in that day for preliminary practice. The preliminary fundamentals will occupy the whole of the first week's practice, with a view to looking over some material which gave promise last year and of getting a line on the new men who are entering for the first time. Shellburne has the entire Alumni and student body of Lincoln University and him in the drive to return things to ball to "Normalay." Dr. W, G. Alexander, the graduate manager, and A. D. Williams the student manager are bending every effort to do all that can possibly be done to insure the success toward which all are aiming.
All football candidates will report to Coach Shellarine and Capt. Laws in the gymnasium at Lincoln at 2 P.M., September 14, ready for a strenuous season of work. Practice will be held both morning and afternoon till college opens. Most of the men who made their letter last year are returning to school this year, and 'there are indications that many of the new men who are expected will displace some of the "Varsity" men of past years. Runner is it that 'San' Parr, who is eligible to one more year is returning to complete some work. This will gladden the hearts of all Lincolnites who saw last Thanksgivings. Catastrophe! And remember that Parr was the one redeeming feature of the Lincoln squad.
A. G. McCain, Linecoln's football captain, paid The Whin office a visit, tarrying long enough at the desk of the sporting editor to tell him that Lincoln intends to make things hum this season and that our great eastern team had better watch them, going and coming.

Dress Up
Clothes do not tell the intrinsic value of the wearer and they
may not show the beauty of the soul, but they certainly go a long
way toward impressing the general public. It is the duty of the
American black man to demand from the world the recognition,
yespect and deference which is accorded cther people. This recox-
nition, respect and deference cannot be rendered in good faith and
honor to a bedraggled, shabby and slovenly race. The dress of the
black man must reflect his refinement, culture and general inclina-
ticns.
The white people have had a splendid opportunity to observe
the black man in a “closeup” during the last summer. Black people
from ali over the United States have assembled themselves in great
northern cities conducting conclaves and conventions. These con-
claves and conventions have been attended by the “leaders and rep-
resentatives”’ of the whole race. These ‘leaders and representatives”
have been curiously eyed and scrutinized by the dominant white
man and in-truth during the summer of 1921 the black man has been
standing on dress parade. Impressions have been gathered from
his general appearance and many conclusions have been formed.
What these impressions were and what the conclusions have been
we ourselves can easily determine.
Leaders with long, green, shiny coats have been seen treading
merrily down Fifth Ave. and Michigan Boulevard and their cellu-
loid collars turning yellow with age have drawn sarcastic smiles
from their white brothers, while their feet, encased in shambling
shces of huge proportions, have been the provocation of derisive
grins and much sardonic laughter. The delegates, who came from
distant points south and west, have brought back to memory the
relics of slavery and the slouching black hats of felt and the decrepit
“out of ceason” straws as well as the uncouth guffaws have fed more
fuel to the raging flames of Americas prejudice and have given our
enemies firmer convictions in relegating us into condilions of segre-
gation and discriminations.
We talk about “our rights’ and at the came time clothe our-
selves in the garb cf slaves and servants. ‘The Chicago Daily News
wives a beautiful cross section of a reccr? convention in this wise:
“Grizalcd old veterans of slavery days, witl: Icng chiny coats and
with wide expansive grins * * * and genie! old msinimice cit side by
side with energetic, spruce young citiz=ns of northern cities.” None
cam refute the story told in the word picture of the Daily News.
If the grizcled old veterans represent ihc best thought of fifty-
five years of freedom and liberty, if they represcat the millions of
black folk in the United States of America, if they characterize and.
typify the race which now seeks political aad ezcnomic rccognition,
they fail sadly and their failure is without cxcuse.
Poverty cannot be pleaded for the careless and unconventional
attire of these “leaders”? and delegates to great conventions during
the summer of 1921. They were supborted by organizations which
were fully prepared to attire them in apparel suitable with time,
place and occasion. It is just another case and cxample of race
carelessness and thoughtlessness. The black nccple seem to be prone
to forget that they are under the consiant surveillance of their ene-
mies who readily and zealously pick out the many points of short-
coming. In the avenues of American life it is well established fact
that the actions of the black man must be far above reproach and
strictly in keeping with the modern trend of society.
The Japanese people mingle in diplomatic and social circles at
perfect ease and decorum. They always appear scrupulously neat
and in keeping with the occasion.
Nething about their appearance can invoke sarcastic criticism
and the Japanese people have forced the world to respect them be-
cause they were always “up to the minute” in every respect,
In this hour, when the light of hope shines but sparsely, ev:
Niet Cae Glock: tun thowld be wed to remove his tace trots the

respect. Dress and personal appearance play important parts in the
great melee and carelessness cannot be tolerated or excused.

Too Late Now |

Fie Get cece la i/America ore all ba unter became at te
recent actions of the Republican party. President Harding is cater-
ing to southern sentiment and scems unwilling to give the black
constituency the slightest consideration. He has failed to make a
substantial appointment of a single black to political office and has
favored the most rabid race-haters with soft jobs. The newspapers
published in the interest of the black peonle are now sending out.
the distress signal and it appears that they have just rubbed their
sleepy eyes, yawned and awakened to the true situation. It is too
late now.
Before Harding was nominated and even before he was in the
race the Chicago Whip sounded a note of alarm and, delving into
the problem, correctly analyzed and predicted what his course of
procedure would be. In issue of March 12, 1920, just after Harding |
had taken his seat, the Whip produced its famous editorial entitled
“Beware of the Ides of March.” If the advice given in that attempt
had been heeded the black people would not now be at the end of
their political wits, but it is too late now.

There was one thing the men in service in the recent war léamed and that
was the kind of shoe te wear, In taking a man into service there was one
point that made a foot normal and that was a foot on which a man can march
and fight. In order to do this there must be unrestricted motiop of the joints

NOTE—This editorial appeared in the Chicago Whip shortly after President
Harding was inaugurated. In the light of President’ Harding's present attitude,
and the apparent imclination on the part of the Republican party to throw the
black man out-ot its ranks, this editorial was a remarkable forecast.

Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures, In the Hope of Correcting
Errors and Evils.
Dr. J. R. Crossland of St. Joseph, Mo., has been appointed to
handle the claims of the black veterans of the late World War. The
claims of the black soldiers are the same as those of the white and
Dr. Crossland has really accepted a Jim Crow job. Perry Howard,
ancther prominent “Uncle Tom” politician, also accepted a Jim Crow
job. .As long as we take these political handouts, as long as our
“Jeaders” are too hungry to refuse them, of course they will be ten-
dered our race.
A pastor of a large Chicago Baptist Church balked at eating
at the same table with some of the white brethren. He fidgeted
nervously and stated that he had a previous engagement with his
wife. This same minister recently offered his services as a valet to
a white brother who helped his church. This kind of a man is the
type of a leader who claims to represent 3,000 members.
Jn order to escape the unsavory treatment of the Lily White
Republican party of Kentucky and Virginia, the black politicians
have been compelled to withdraw from the Grand Old Party and
form an organization of their own. As a matter of fact they were
driven out. This method of procedure unhappily comes ten years
too late to result in any tangible good and they will be back in the
fold as soon as a few jobs are hung teasingly over their heads. '
S What has become of the promises of President Harding to the
black people?’ What has become of the wonderful orators who
swore by him? Where is Woodrow Wilson and the Democratic
party? Find them and ask them to explain what is the difference
in their attitude to our race?
