THIRTY-FIRST YEAR. NO. 48 IN UNION THERE IS STRONGER MANISTORN TO BITS BYFIVE ANGRYLIONS Manager of Trained Animal Act Fights Futile Battle for Life With Beasts. Cornell Graduate Enters Cage to Water Animals and Prepare Car for Its Trip When Infuriated and Half Famished Lions Pounce Upon Him. Chicago, Ill.—Set upon by five angry, half famished lions, unarmed and with an aged lioness as his only protector, Emerson D. Dietrich of Brooklyn, N. Y., a Cornell graduate and manager of a trained animal act, fought a thrilling but futile battle for his life in a box car in the yards of the Santa Fe railroad at Clark and 16th-st. Man Is Torn to Bits. Before aid could reach him Dietrich had practically been torn to bits by the infuriated lions, which crouched over the bleeding body, refusing to permit it to be dragged from the car until they had been forced away by the fumes of formaldehyde. Nearly every bone in Dietrich's body had been broken and it had been gored beyond recognition by the beasts. While the lions were tearing Dietrich limb from limb, his fiancée, the real animal trainer in charge of the beasts, was telling Cy DeVey, head animal keeper at Lincoln park, that her lions were the tamenest in captivity and were not dangerous. A telephone message informing her of the tragedy interrupted her remarks to DeVey. Attempts to Water Animals. Dietrich was the manager of the animal act called "Mile. Adgier's performing lions" and was engaged to the lion tamer. They were to be married at Atlantic City, where they were to open for performances next week. The lions, 10 in number, were in two cases placed inside a box car. Dietrich had entered one of the cages to water the animals and prepare the car for its trip, while his flancee, Adgier Castillo, went to Lincoln park to visit Cy DeVey. TWELVE DIE IN CANAL EXCURSIONISTS DROWN WHEN MOTOR LAUNCH HITS SUB-MERGED LOG. Syracuse, N. Y.—Twelve persons were drowned when a motor launch in which they were returning home after a day's excursion struck a submerged log in the Oswego canal near this city and capized.

Marie Adams, 10, and Charles Welsh, 6, were saved along with Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Dainer, owners of the launch, which was used for excursion purposes. Lewis Dalner was able to give only a brief statement after the accident. "I had just started on my journey and was less than a quarter of a mile from the dock when the launch struck a stump." He said the boat was equipped with life preservers, but because of the dark it was impossible for the passengers to equip themselves before they were thrown into the water.

SUPREME COURT EDIGT FAVORS ONE RAILROAD CONFIRMS SOUTHERN PACIFIC'S RIGHT TO VAST TERRITORY OF PETROLEUM LANDS. Aggregate Value of Lands, Whose Ownership Is Set at Rest by Decision, Has Been Placed by Experts at $700,000,000. Washington, D. C.-Under a sweeping decision of the supreme court the Southern Pacific Railroad Co. is confirmed in its right to tittes to a vast territory of valuable petroleum lands in California, secured under land grants made by congress to assist in construction of the road. The aggregate value of these lands, whose ownership is set at rest by the decision, has been placed by experts at sums running as high as $700,000,000. Aside from the main contention the court settled a long mooted question by holding that petroleum is a mineral. The United States government lost under the decision, the case decided being the forerunner of suits by the government, had it gone against the railroad, for the recovery of much of the mineral lands now known to be embraced in the grants to the railroad. Recovery by the government is restricted to such lands the patents to which were secured by fraud or through a mere inadvertence on the part of the government agents. Doubt as to this right of recovery is suggested in the decision which holds that due diligence must be shown by the government in having the patents canceled and that the time for doing so expired in 1900 or 1901. The case came to the supreme court on appeals by Edmund Burke, J. I. Lamprecht and F. M. Albert, private claimants to lands patented to the Southern Pacific, the California federal court circuit certifying a series of questions involved to the supreme court.

CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 27. 1914. What Colored Men Have Done Along This Line. FEARLESS IN THEIR EFFORTS Story of Many Thrilling Incidents In Which True Manhood Asserted Itself Without Regard to Personal Danger at the Psychological Moment—Liberal Rewards In Money and Medals. Among the colored persons who have received prizes from the Andrew Carnegie hero fund for acts of bravery in preventing death or serious injury to individuals are the following named men. The character of the service performed is also given: John G. Walker, aged twenty-nine, drayman, rescued William G. Oear, forty-four, quartermaster general, stair militia of Georgia; Legare H. Oear, aged thirty-four, and Julia H. Oear, aged four months; E. W. Butler, aged fifty-five, mayor and lawyer, and Green Thomas, aged fifty-six, laborer, from a runaway at Madison, Ga. Walker tried to grab the rein of one of a team of spirted horses drawing a surrey containing Butler, Thomas and the Oebers, but, falling, he ran alongside the horses a few steps and then grabbed the rein. It slipped through his hands to the loop, and at that moment Walker was struck by a wheel and knocked to the ground. The wheel passed over his legs below the knees and, still clinging to the rein, he was dragged along the street for about fifteen feet, when, as a result of his pulling back, the horses ran into an embankment and came to a stop. Walker was disabled nine days by his injuries. None of the occupants of the surrey was hurt. Award, bronze medal and $500 toward purchase of a home. Charles A. Smith, aged thirty-one, attempted to save Theodore Dilhof, aged forty-three, laborer, from suffocation, Cincinnati, O. Disregarding warnings to take precautions for his own safety, Smith descended a ladder in a twelve foot manhole of a sewer where Dilhof lay unconscious from carbonic acid gas and methane. When about two feet above Dilhof and as he was reaching toward him, Smith felt unconscious across Dilhof's bodily heat, about five minutes later and resuscitated. Dilhof was dead when taken out. Award, bronze medal and $1,000 toward purchase of a home. Elbert Gray, aged sixteen, schoolboy, saved A. Canton Steep, aged two, from drowning. Canton, Tex. Feb. 5, 1012. Calvin feet feet first into a well thirteen inches in diameter and sixty feet deep, which contained eighteen inches of water, and unsuccessful efforts were made to rescue him with a hook. An uncle of the went to a town three miles distant and there met Gray, whom he told the circumstances. Making no mention of a reward, he asked Gray if he would enter the well, and Gray said he would. When Gray reached the well a rope was tied under his arms, and he was lowered into it. He put his shoulders forward in order to make his body smaller and held his hands down in front of him. He grasped Calvin and was hoisted to a point near the surface when Calvin's clothes gave way, and he again dropped to the bottom. Gray was hoisted to the surface. He was crying, being somewhat frightened. The skin had been rubbed off his arms in several places, and his face was scratched and bleeding. When asked he agreed to descend head first with a rope around his ankles, although he heard a man say that he (Gray) would be dead before he reached the bottom. Gray was lowered into the well head first, carrying a rope, and when he reached Calvin he tied the rope around him, and both were hoisted. Neither suffered any ill effects from the experience. Awarded medal and $2,000 for educational purposes as needed. Noldon Townsell, aged sixteen, porter, saved Emma E. Seale, aged four, from being run over by an auto truck, Waco Tex., Feb. 1, 1912. As Townsell and Emma were crossing a street the child darted ahead of Townsell in front of an auto truck which was approaching at a speed of twelve miles an hour. Townsell sprang forward and landed between the child and the auto truck. He grasped Emma's shoulders and pushed her out of the path of the machine just as it struck him. He was knocked to the pavement, and one wheel ran over his leg. Emma was not injured, but Townsell suffered a broken rib and was otherwise injured, being disabled two months. Awarded bronze medal and $2,000 for educational purposes as needed. Nathan Record, aged thirty-one, farmer, helped a man named Law to save Luther F., Anna and Nettle L. McClanahan and Dorris A.

Award, bronze medal and $1,000 toward purchase of a farm. Arthur Lockett, aged thirty-three, fireman, saved Claude H. Potter, aged three, from being run over by a train. Jefferson, Ga. May 9, 1912. Lockett was in the cab of a locomotive running twenty-five miles an hour, and his attention was attracted by a scream from the engineer. He saw Claude on the track, 150 feet ahead of the locomotive, and although the locomotive was swaying under an emergency application of the brakes, he ran along the running board, jumped to the steam chest, thence to the bumper timber, and when the pilot was less than ten feet from Claude jumped to the track in front of the locomotive, which was then running eight or nine miles an hour. He fell forward as he struck the ground and grabbed Claude as he fell. With two strong, quick jerks he threw himself and the child off the track to safety. The locomotive was stopped when the pilot was thirty-five feet beyond the point of rescue. Award, silver medal and $1,000 for a worthy purpose, as needed. Beecher Roberts, aged seventeen, farm hand, helped two men to rescue Thomas Ashcraft from a cave in a well, Tyler, Tex., April 16, 1912. Roberts reached the well after Wills and Gregory had been working in it for some time, and when he was asked to do so immediately had himself lowered. He scraped some sand from around Ashcraft's leg and then tied the rope to Ashcraft. Another rope was lowered to Roberts and both men were drawn out. Award, bronze medal and $500 for a worthy purpose, as needed. Mack Stallworth, aged thirty-three, oil tank cleaner, died saving Squire Bradford, colored, aged twenty-eight, oil tank cleaner, from suffocation; Port Arthur, Tex., June 25, 1910. Bradford was overcome in a tank car by gas which had formed in it. Stallworth entered the car through an opening fifteen inches in diameter and, grasping Bradford, lifted him up so that two men on the outside of the car could reach him. Bradford was got out, but Stallworth was overcome by the gas and was suffocated before he could be rescued. Bradford revived. Award, bronze medal and $3 a month for support of widow during her life or until she remarries, with $5 a month additional for her son until he reaches the age of sixteen. James Pruitt, aged forty-four, farmer, saved Fritz F. Muller and attempted to save William Riehle from suffocation. This took place at Washalia, S. C., May 20, 1911. Pruitt descended to assist Riehle rescue Muller. He threw a rope around Muller, and he and Muller were drawn to the surface. When Riehle failed to grasp the rope that was let down to him Pruitt was lowered into the walk, but when part way was held he could be drawn up. Pruitt was hoisted and was weak and unable to work for two weeks. Awarded silver medal and $500 toward purchase of a farm. Nathan Duncan, aged forty-one, farmer and well digger, rescued William C. Anderson, aged fifty-two, well digger from a cave-in in a well, West Point. Tex., Aug. 5. 1907. Anderson was working in a well three feet in diameter forty feet below the surface when sand slid from the sides and buried him to his shoulders. For a distance of twenty feet above his head there was an unsupported wall of sand, from which other slides seemed imminent. Of the twelve or more men who gathered all were afraid to go to the aid of Anderson. Duncan was summoned and, fastening a rope to himself, was lowered into the well. He dug the sand from about Anderson until he was free to the waist when another slide occurred, which covered Anderson to a depth of ten inches. Duncan escaped being buried by jumping up and grasping a rope dangling over his head, the sand coming only to his knees. Duncan was frightened, but after two hours' work Dug Anderson free, and he was hoisted out. Duncan was then drawn up. After the two had reached the surface Anderson to test the wall gave the curb at the top a poke with a stick, and the curb and a large mass of sand fell into the well, filling it to a depth of over twenty feet. Awarded gold medal and $2,000 toward purchase of a farm. **Strong Fight Against Race Prejudice.** The fight against race prejudice by fair minded individuals, organizations and by some government officials continues. At Albany, N. Y., on June 9 Attorney General Carmody made it known that steps would be taken through the district attorney's office to enforce the law forbidding discrimination on account of race, color or creed by proprietors of hotels, restaurants and others who maintain summer resorts. The law forbids the placing of advertisements or the publication of notices by the keepers of such place for public accommodation, to the effect that patronage will be refused any one account of race, color or creed.

Interesting Story of a Yale College Graduate Who Was Born on a Plantation In Anderson County, South Carolina, "Over the River"—Gifted Orator and Finished Scholar. Talladega. Ala.—From obscurity and meager circumstances to a position of prominence and influence is the record of one of the most remarkable men of the race, Professor William Pickens of Talladega college in this town. He is an example of what can be accomplished by a young man through industry, honesty and reliability. Professor Pickens, like most men of the race who have made a place in life, was not born in a palace, but comes from slave parents. His life is an inspiration to the boys of his race. As an orator and entertainer he takes his place in the front rank and his services are very much sought in all parts of the country. Anderson county, South Carolina, near the little town of Pendleton, is the place of Professor Pickens' birth, Jan. 25 1881. It was in the neighborhood called "over the river" and on a farm at that. It is needless to say that his parents were not educated, but they could read and spell a little in a large print New Testament. Mr. Pickens was about two years old when his parents moved from "over the river" to "Price's place." There they WILLIAM PICKENS. lived in a one room cabin, near the great house of the landowner. After a year or two another moving day was inaugurated, and his parents moved from Price's to Clark's place, a more desirable location and nearer Pendleton. It was at this time that William got his first sight into education and became acquainted with the English alphabet, which was learned so readily that his sister took delight in leading him to school, although he was then in the neighborhood of two years under school age. The schoolhouse was, of course, the characteristic school building of that period—built of logs, with one door and one window, the window having no panes and being closed by a board shutter, which swung on leather hinges. Persuasion to study and good deportment consisted of a well seasoned hickory switch, a cone shaped paper "dunce cap" and a stool on which the offender must stand on one foot for an enormous length of time. The Pickenses changed residence oftener than any family in that section of the country. In speaking of their moving William Pickens himself says that his parents must have moved at least twenty times up to the time he reached the age of eighteen years. The next move was to Argenta, Ark., in the winter of 1800. This was a real move cityward and with a view of carrying out what the parents so much desired, and that was educating their children. This prospect so stirred the heart of young William Pickens that he learned to write at home before the school opened in the fall or before he could enter, because there was work to be done and means had to be got, so that all started to school in the fall of 1801. Many were the experiences of the young man between that time and the time of his finding his way to Tallahassee college, for he had determined that it was possible to make it through college. Although he did not have wealth he had health and muscle. and that with three ten dollar bills. This was the beginning for higher things. His impressions made on the teachers, his making the freshman class and many other things of merit by this young man attracted the attention of all connected with the college, and step by step he was put to the front, sent to the north and east until he found his way into Yale college. Professor Pickens' record at Yale is well known. All will remember how he carried off the prizes, how he won fame and how at this time through that work he is regarded as one of the most finished scholars of the race. He is a worthy example for the young boys of his race. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS SAYS SHE SLEWMAN TO SAVE HER HONOR Pretty Eighteen-Year-Old Italian Girl Admits Killing White Slayer. TELLS SORDID TALE OF MURDER Declares In Police Headquarters That Victim Had Tried to Force Her to Live Life of Shame and Become the Tool of Band New York City—Looking calmly at her questioners, Marie Magalusio, a pretty Italian girl, 18, with the soulful eyes of a Madonna, told a sordid story of murder at police headquarters. The girl calmly admitted that she had killed Glesupio Marino, whose body was found on the top floor of 634 E. 13th-st on April 10, and even smiled as she recalled some of the details. Miss Magalusio, who was arrested by a detective from District Attorney Whitman's office on a charge of homicide, declared that Marino had tried to force her to live a life of shame and become the tool of a band of Italian blackmasters. Eloped Two Years Ago. "Two years ago," said Maria in a soft, lisping voice, "I eloped with Jose Stabasio, but after six months he left me for another woman. My parents refused to take me back home, so I went to live with my brother Tony. "Marino, who was a white slaver and a blackmaller, was a frequent visitor at our flat. Nearly everyone was afraid of Marino, and he boasted of crime, which increased our fear of him. He told me that he was going to use me for his gang, and once I consented to do his bidding. He told me I was to go to a certain point and take a cigar box containing $500 from a man. I went, but saw two policemen standing on the corner and was so afraid I ran away. "My brother heard of this and gave Marino a beating. A few days later my brother was arrested and sent to the penitentiary. He had not committed any crime, but had been tricked by Marino's gang for revenge. Came With Death Threat. "When my brother was sent away Marino came to my room one morning about 3 o'clock and told me he would kill me. He had a revolver in one hand and a razor in the other. I was frightened, but not too scared to beg him to spare me. There were several other members of the gang in the house and they came into the room and laughed. Joe got angry and started to beat me. I pretended to be unconscious and the other members of the band, fearing I was dead, left. Joe left the room and I thought he had gone, so I got up and dressed. He heard me and came back, and when he found out I wasn't seriously hurt he started to wave the revolver and curse me. Marino laid the revolver on the table and I watched every move he made. Suddenly he turned his back. I leaped forward and grabbed the gun. Marino turned and read death in my eyes, but as he opened his mouth in a pleading scream I pulled the trigger and he fell dead." FIGHT ON STREET CAR FIGHT ON STREET CAR ONE MAN IS SO BADLY HURT THAT HE IS TAKEN TO HOSPITAL. Toledo, O.—As a result of a fight on a street car over a 3-cent fare an unidentified man lies in St. Vincent's, perhaps with a fractured skull. The man, returning from Toledo Beach on a Beach car, tendered Conductor William Jason three pennies. Jason refused them and a controversy followed. Witnesses said the man was thrown from the car and was picked up by members of a fire company, who called the police. Jason later was arrested. BABY FOUND MURDERED BODY OF A NEW BORN INFANT BOY STRANGLED TO DEATH IS DISCOVERED. Bridgeport, Conn.—The finding of the body of a new born baby boy in a clump of bushes near the Automobile highway, just outside this city, has started the police on a hunt for the murderers. The baby, absolutely nude, had a knotted piece of a woman's automobile veil around its throat and had been strangled to death. The police believe it was born in an automobile and cast into the bushes as the car speeded away. Federal Judge Severely Arraigned. Washington, D. C.-United States Judge Emery Speer of Macon, Ga., was severely arraigned by the house judiciary committee for his conduct in his high office, but he was spared an impeachment trial because the committee believed there was not sufficient evidence of wrongdoing to convict him. The committee's report requested the house to drop the charges. Representative Volstead of Minnesota, Republican minority member, submitted a separate report exonerating Judge Speer. IN UNION THERE IS STRENGTH PAUL WARBURG President Wilson's appointment of Paul Warburg, a New York banker, as a member of the federal reserve board, aroused considerable opposition in the United States senate. U. S. OFFICIALS ASK FARMERS QUESTION HAS YOUR WHEAT BEEN FESTED WITH THE HESSIAN FLY THIS SEASON? Agriculturists Invited to Co-operate With Washington Experts in Destruction of Pest That Is Liable to Cause Damage to Crops. Washington, D. C.—"Has your wheat been infested by the Hessian fly this season?" is a question that the United States department of agriculture is now asking farmers. The information is desired that there may be general co-operation between all concerned in reducing the devastations of the fly. There is every indication that the pest will be unusually troublesome to the crop this fall. No Expense to Farmer. Every wheat grower in the country who suspects that his crop has been infested is requested to send his name to the department's bureau of entomology at Washington, with a request for a question blank. The questions to be answered are merely as to whether the wheat grower's crop was infested at certain seasons. The farmer will then be asked to forward some of the infested wheat plants for examination, postage to be paid by the government. He will also be asked to give his name, address and the nearest railway station. Appeals to Wheat Grower. The department is co-operating with various state experiment stations in this campaign against the Hessian fly, and in some cases the infested straw will be sent by the farmer to local stations for examination. The wheat grower can learn just where his sample of straw is to be sent when he sends his name to the department, indicating his willingness to send the sample. The department encourages the sender not to be afraid to forward too much of the straw, even though it has to be sent by parcel post. The upper part of the straw need not be sent, but enough above the ground should be included to get the insect in what is known as the "flaxseed" stage, when the larva is incased in a hard, brown skin and somewhat resembles a flax seed. The insects will remain for a considerable time in the "flaxseed" state during a drought and will only emerge after rains have moistened the soil. Dry weather in the late summer tends to keep the insect in that stage, which is a fact of special importance in the north, where the wheat must be sown early enough to enable the plants to stand the winter. Pest Causes Heavy Loss. No other insect causes more damage to the wheat crop in the United States than the Hessian fly, although there are certain years when the chinch bug exceeds the fly in its devastations. During the seasons when the fly is especially abundant hundreds of thousands of acres of wheat may be either totally destroyed or so badly injured as to reduce the yield 50 to 75 per cent. The monetary losses run far up into the millions. A number of years ago there was in Kansas general co-operation between grain dealers, millers and farmers to restrict the ravages of this dangerous insect. According to their own estimate over a million dollars were saved by prompt action and thorough measures. This year the department hopes to secure general co-operation throughout the country in combatting the pest. There are indications that its ravages may be severe. 20 Dynamiters Must Serve Sentence. Washington, D. C.—Twenty of the dynamiters convicted at Indianapolis began serving their prison sentences Thursday, pardon being denied them by President Wilson in his decision announced Wednesday. The clemency appeal of four of the 24 men convicted was granted. The lucky ones were Michael J. Hannon, Frank Painter, Fred J. Mooney and William Shupe. Two other men, John H. Barry and Paul J. Morris, may be released later. One Year.....$1.50.

In the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. Old soldier and Afro-American Republican clerks, in the departments at Washington, D. C., have been "fired, right and left", in recent weeks. Ohio is "going Republican", this fall. Mark our prediction! It has remained democratic too long, already. The people have had their fill of that party's rule and will have the change. "It is in the air". The thoughtful and far-seeing among Ohio Republicans concede Senator Foraker's renomination on August 11. All that is necessary is for our voters to do their duty on that day. Will you? Our friends the country over, and this includes, of course, our conferees of the race press, are most kind and encouraging in their comment on our candidacy for a Republican nomination as State Representative, subject to the primaries, August 11, 1914. We thank them, sincerely and heartily. --- There are two or three things in Bishop Hartzell's interview, published in one of our Chicago letters else where in this paper, to which we would call particularly the attention of our readers. One is his statement that the African races are not inferior to others; the second, that their lanugues are finer than European lanugues, which of course, includes the English language; and the third, that the black Africans are rapidly becoming very proficient in domestic science, modern cooking and scientific agriculture. These are the most encouraging statements that have come out of Africa and from so authoritative a source, we have ever read or heard. It is encouraging, to say the least. THE PRESIDENT AND THE G. A. R Speaking of President Wilson's unwilling memorial day speech at Arlington cemetery, near Washington, D. C., a writer (Frances D. Ten Eyck) in the Chicago Daily Tribune, said, recently: "I believe that all those whose beloved dead sleep in the holy peace of Arlington rejoice that that peace was broken by the shout of rebuke which rose there on Memorial day. Unwilling wreaths and smooth, unwilling speech, however elegant, are poor tribute to lay upon the shrine of the saviors of a nation. "Thank God that the nameless dead have yet a voice which speaks from the hearts of their countrymen. "President Wilson, scholar and gentleman, man of conscience and ideals, is Virginia. An American should lead the policy of the United States." THE TRUTH! and exceptionally well stated, too. Not only "Virginia" but "the South is in the saddle" at Washington, D.C., under this present democratic administration, and as a result not only Afro-Americans whose color and race, as a rule, are Republican signs, but veterans of the war of the rebellion are also being dismissed, "by the wholesale", from federal offices and positions. In the eyes and minds of those democrats in power at the nation's capital, these days, it is as much a political crime to be "a black Republican" as it is to be a Republican war veteran. And President Wilson endorses this shameful mistreatment of some of the truest, best and most loyal Americans, by his silent acquiescence in their dismissal, etc. FOR SHAME! "THE LORD WORKS IN MYSTER! OUS WAYS". LUNA PARK AGAIN Many, yes many times in the past thirty years or more that we have been editing and publishing The Gazette have we been impressed with the fact that "the Lord works in mysterious ways". Again, we are reminded of this by the article from the Forest City Sanitary club to be found elsewhere in this paper. Its statement, to the public, embodies about all that The Gazette has time and again set forth to its readers during the past two or three years. Many of our readers will remember how we have pled with our people of Cleveland to stop contracting with the management of Luna Park for "special days", because of various kinds of discrimination against them practiced there. Since they would not enter the courts and with the assistance of our Ohio Civil Rights law, compel the park management to stop discrimination on the ground of race and color, we felt that it was our duty to implore them to cease providing "special days" on which hundreds, and even thousands of unthinking Afro-Americans, would go to Luna Park and dump into the coffers of its color-line management thousands upon thousands of dollars of their hard-earned money. All last winter a "jim-crow" roller-skating rink for a few of the thoughtless and careless members of the race was maintained, in spite of our pleading with them to stay away from the place, and in spite of the fact that they were refused admittance to the same place in the summer season, except on the aforementioned "special" or "jim-crow" days. The two leading organizations among our people of this community that in the past led in this "special day" mistake were the Cleveland Association of Colored Men and the Forest City Sanitary club, both of which in recent weeks have refused to again be so "used" and have taken the high ground in the matter, The Gazette has constantly, for several years past, pled for. For this, we cannot praise them too much, even though they have been rather slow in reaching so sane and race-interest-promoting a conclusion. We fully realize, however, that all do not think or feel alike; neither do we all reach proper conclusions as quickly as perhaps we should. Therefore, The Gazette feels to praise, and to ask the thoughtful and loyal of our people of this community to do likewise in the case of the Cleveland Association of Colored Men and the Forest City Sanitary club, for the very commendable stand relative to Luna Park they have taken in recent weeks, and we sincerely trust that all other racial organizations in this community will follow their lead at least so far as Luna and all other parks are concerned as long as there is racial or color discrimination practiced in them. OHIO'S, "THE MODEL LAW." At a recent annual meeting of the Illinois State Bar Association, held in Chicago, a vigorous campaign against mob-murder and lynching was launched. Several exceptionally strong addresses were delivered on "Enforcement of the law", all being spirited indictments of mob-murders, and resulting in the unanimous passage of a resolution calling for an organized effort to obtain antlynching legislation throughout the country. By unanimous passage the resolution will bring into being a committee of five members who shall petition the conference of commissions on uniform state laws to prepare a model law and further petition the American Bar Association to promote the passage of such a law. This is good—excellent. We commend, to the committee, our Ohio Anti-Lynching law, the most effective in the country and the one that forms the basis of the Illinois law of the same kind. Indeed, these are the only two effective anti-lynching laws in the statutes of the states of the Union. The few others being of no force and practically useless. As a matter of fact, we have been able to learn of but one or two. Speaking of lynching the United States McMurtry of the Illinois Bar Association, womake with the following: "The number of persons lynched in this country during the period of thirty-two years has reached the astounding total of 3,998, an average of 124 a year, 10 a month and 1 every three days. Illinois was represented in the shameful list. "It ought not to be a bona fide to us to find other states even more lawless, but we may obtain a grain of guilty comfort from the fact that, during the entire thirty-two years, seven of the states have never gone a twelfmonth without a lynching—not for almost a third of a century has a whole year elapsed without mob murder in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina and Texas. "Only five states in the Union have been wholly free from this crime during the period named—Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont; the remaining New England state, Connecticut; the lynching never gone as in bow shinned heads to New England. Her fine old civilization has held her in check and saved, not the honor, but the face of the republic. "Forty-three States Uncivilized" "Forty-eight states in the Union and over the names of forty- three we must write the word uncivilized! "The white race has not escaped in this slaughter, for 1,227 white persons has been punished for every ten days. The lyncher is no respecter of sex, for seventy-six of the victims have been women, one for every five months. "It it used to be said that this terrible punishment was reserved for those who commit rape, but that excuse has long been buried. Not more than one-third of the victims have been charged with this crime or even suspected of it. The offense is hideous, but it can afford no basis for volunteers to constitute themselves judge and jury and executioner. In passing, what has changed the Negro in freedom that he should commit this crime unknown when the women were off in his care and not protected during the long years of the rebellion? Latterly good people have concluded that it is the white man's whiskey. Could it be the law of recreation demanding terrible retributive justice? The breadth or the depth of such great laws we do not know." Slowly, but surely, the truth as to 'lynching is forcing its way to the surface. Time was, when most people believed that it (lynching) was caused, in most cases if not in all, by "Negroes committing heinous crimes". That false belief has, at last, been exploded, we are glad to say. That less than one-third of those lynch-murdered are only charged 'never tried and convicted') with said crime, is coming to be believed and accepted because it is the truth, made clear by statistics kept by leading daily newspapers of New York and Chicago. It is really encouraging to have the Illinois Bar Association lead off in a crusade in favor of state legislation against mob-murder and lynch, and we congratulate President McMurdy and his organization. More power to it! We take this method to announce that we will not hold our annual picnic and outing at Luna Park, this year, as has been the case since we can secure the park and THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 1914 the contract we are asked to sign, is so humiliating that we decided not to ask our friends to suffer needless humiliation. Previous to this year, the management reserved to itself the right of entertaining the public, which they did in such a discriminating way as to arouse the resentment of every Negro. Year before last, the manager caused to be placed a sign with the title "Dance Teacher," people could have possession of the skating rink and dance hall after 9:30 p. m." This sign was placed over the entrance to the dance hall and skating rink, last year. The manager after promising not to let that happen again, replaced the sign once more, and then to square himself announced to the white people present that all who cared to could dance as long as they would like too; and from 9:30 p. m. till 1:30 p. m. on Friday. We danced together on the same floor, at the same time, without friction, proving beyond the shadow of a doubt that there exists no cause for discrimination and the Color-line. Now, the manager of Luna Park tries to dodge the criticism that arises from placing the "citation" sign and seeks to use a method that will make use of stencils and markers to create the self-deferring Negro. In the contract we are asked to sign this year, the management reserves the right to furnish the entertainment within the Park, and agrees not to raise the color sign on one condition only and that is, that he have printed on each and every ticket to be sold that day, this inscription: "Colored people will be given possession of the dancer." In the contract we are asked to agree to furnish the Forest City Sanitary Club with all the tickets it can sell and the use of the park if it will but come out and be "jim-crowed." After you consider who we are you can stand an almost unlimited amount of odor and stench, but there is a limit beyond which no mortal man can go. Now do you wonder why our stench is so strong and filled with disgust. We feel like it is needless to say that we will not accept that "condescending" offer. However, we thank the public for having patronized us unintentionally by buying the tickets we have offered for sale in the past, and by giving your presence at our picnics and outings. MORE WORK TO BE DONE. Washington, D. C., June 20, 1914. Editor Gazette, My dear Harry:—I see by the public press that you are to again run for the Legislature in Ohio. From this out, it shall be my prayer that you may have been to the state of Ohio as one of its Legislators, you have been of incalculable good to the Colored race of this country in the great fight you made for Ohio's Anti-Lynch law that you finally got through. All other legislation of its nature has been made that, and your law has stood the test. I believe there is back in your consciousness some other good work to be done. I congratulate you upon your spirit and your willingness to run again. That you may be elected is the wish of Yale. GOO, M. COOK, Secretary, Howard University. CARD OF THANKS.

Mr. Trimble has spent many years in the business, very successfully. For several years, he has owned and conducted once the finest barber shop in the business sections of the city—east and west sides, recently disposing of a very fine place on E. 6th St. He is affable—genial, well known and enterprising, and will undoubtedly, make a great success of his newest undertaking. It will, too, fill a long-felt want—Adv. The announcement that the Hom. Harry C. Smith of Cleveland, O., will be a candidate on the Republican ticket for the state legislature, this fall, has not only created great interest among the Colored voters in the state, but has also interested throughout the state is interested in Mr. Smith's candidacy. The Ohio civil rights law and the Ohio anti-lynching law were each introduced by Mr. Smith and passed by his efforts while he was a member of the state legislature for three terms a few years ago. He is now the state's largest, and Mr. Smith is well and favorably known to the white voters. Therefore, his chances for being nom- inated and elected should be very good.—Detroit (Mich.) Leader. The editor of The Gazette, our candidate for a Republican nomination for State Representative, announces the endorsements she sees weeks ago, the endorsements she makes the minutes of our twelve local churches. Those who signed the endorsement were: Rev. H. C. Bailey, pastor of Antioch Baptist church; Rev. E. H. Smith, Shiloh Baptist; Rev. Chas. Bundy, St. John's A. M. E.; Rev. G. V. Clark, Mt. Zion Congregational; Rev. J. E. Davis, "Church of God and Saints of Christ": Rev. Chas. S. Garner, Triedstone Baptist; Rev. C. H. Howe, Lane Memorial; C. M. E.; Rev. C. H. Young; James A. M. E.; Rev. A. White, Cory M. E.; Rev. J. L. E. Burr, Mt. Haven Baptist; Rev. H. M. Lowry, Gethsemane Baptist, and Rev. W. M. Page, Mt. Zion Baptist. The ever fighting, uncompromising Harry C. Smith of Cleveland, Ohio, has announced himself a candidate for the State Legislature from his district. This is indeed refreshing, especially after recent failures in Cleveland. It is to be hoped that the factions will not again sacrifice a good office and a good servant for the sake of political spoil. They might have elected a councilman last fall had there been just a little more race pride and less factional dispute among the brethren. The friends of Mr. Smith will remember that he did some lasting good for his people and his State when he was a member of the law-making body; and his record ought to be sufficient endorsement to guarantee his return. He is always in the forefront for his people and never allows an opportunistic hard for their rights to pass unimproved. Pittsburgh is rooting for his election. -Pittsburg Courier The Case of a Chicken Thief. A Texas Negro who stole fifteen chickens served seventeen years in the penitentiary for the lethinous fense. There may be circumstances which mitigate this judicial outrage, but they do not appear, and the lay mind is unable to imagine what they can be. The average punishment for murder, not lethinousness, is considerably less severe than that meted out in this case for petty larceny. Are human lives, perchance less worthy of the state's protection than hens, or are we to understand that the chicken thief is a more deserate and depraved character than the thief. Quite likely this particular Negro was a very worthless one—and what has the state of Texas done to improve his habits and morals?-- He stole a sackful of chickens; the state in revenge made him work and stole his wages for nearly half a working lifetime. Even the traditional Philadelphian could not find any reforming influence in that—Chicago Daily Journal editorial. AFRICAN LANGUAGES FINER Than the English Language, Says Bishop Hartzell—Domestic Science and Scientific Agriculture in Africa. Chicago, Ill. How domestic science and agriculture are used in mission work among the poor was described Monday by Bishop J. C. Hartzell (white), who arrived in Chicago to attend the International Sunday school convention, which opened, Tuesday. The bishop, who is the leader of the Methodist Episcopal church in Africa, has just completed his annual trip of 20,000 miles through the dark continent. He addressed the 4,000 delegates to the convention. "Domestic science, modern cooking and scientific agriculture are playing a large part in the transformation of Africa," Bishop Hartzell said. "Taught by American experts, the natives eagerly accept their teachings and profit by them. The industrial work is doing more than any other thing to assist in the Christianization of Africa. "The general impression that the African races are inferior is all wrong. If every language spoken by the world's white races were wiped out of existence, their place could be taken by native African languages showing finer shades of meaning and better developed grammar than English. European languages which exist side by side with some of those languages become enriched by borrowing from them." "Those peoples become splendid farmers when properly instructed. In my recent trip I attended at one of our mission stations an agricultural fair at which over 500 exhibits were shown by native farmers. The way that they pick up the industrial knowledge of the white peoples is astonishing." "Many people look upon the Africans as all Negroes. There are white races in Northern Africa, with a civilization that is much more developed than the language, and with great walled cities, comparing favorably with our own cities." Regarding his personal experience Bishop Hartzell said that he had been in Africa as bishop for seventeen years. Yes. Damphools.

As to the stammerers and stutterers who are seeking a cure from their disorder, even in picture shows—may I repeat the personal cure? At about fourteen I was attacked by a bad habit of stammering and couldn't start a remark without it, says a writer in the London Chronicle. The other boys laughed at me, and elders projected complicated cures. But the absurdity of the situation appealed to me. Why couldn't I say "T" at once, without the preliminary stammer? It was obviously necessary to stutter, often before saying "No." Well, why shouldn't I stutter to myself? The method was adopted.

There are, of course, the stammerers who cultivate the art in conversation, and who have not the least wish to be cured. Because, as with Charles Lamb, the point of the remark is delayed for the moment by the hesitancy. Curiosity, expectancy, anxiety are aroused, and then the amazing word comes. The tremendous fluency of our present political speakers raises a certain longing for a stammerer on the platform, for the man who could make you wonder whether he were about to burst—what he was about to burst with—and then after the dreadful suspense—said it.

LAUNDRY AGENCY AFHU-AMERICAN CULLINGS ‘The heroic efforts being made by the comparatively few colored Washing- tonians cannot be ignored, writes MI- ehael Jones ins communication to the Siar of that city. In the city of Wash- ington, among many other enterprises ‘ewned, operated and controlled by col: ered people, are 600 grocery stores, large and small; more than twenty drug stores; two dozen first-class tal- Jors, who cater to the finest trade: about forty dyeing and cleaning ostad- Ushments and dozens of barber shops, undertaking establishments, confec: tlonery shops, etc. Washington col- ‘ored people own and control one shoe store, one thriving banking institation ‘and several sclenti‘eally conducted in- surance companies. ‘Te continuation of just such steps ‘ap hi ve been taken by the few referred to above in business efforts, will do more to tolve the “race problem” than all the indignation meetings that can be hield between now and the day of Judgment. 1 am. thorougbly convinced that if half the energy, pride, ambition. thought and money used In promoting indignation meetings were directed into chanacla that would lead to the erection of a manufacturing plant, the organization of a corporation or the establishment of some other worthy enterprise, America’s most mistreated eltizens would be better able to get that for which they strive and should rightly have, ‘The ten millions of Negroes in Amer- fea buy about 20,000,000. pairs of shoes each your, for which they pay not less than $40,000,000, but they operate scarcely a dozen small ‘retail shoe tages, nd there ts not in existence one larice shoe factory owned, operated and.controlied by negrocs.

The attorney is Chapin Brinsmade ot New York. Included in his work were three cases before the United States Su preme court, namely, an attack on the constitutionality of the “grandfather” clause in Ollshoma, whicb, In effect, compels Negroes to pass educational tests before being permitted to regis ter and vote; an effort to win an in- Junction against the enforcement of the “Jim Crow" law, which affpets rail road travel by Negroes in southern states, the Injunction having been Ue nied in lower courts; another test of the “Jim Crow” law'as applicable to Interstate travel in sleeping cars. These cases still are pending. The following paragraphs from Mr. Brinsmade’s Feport show the various interests which have been taken by the legal department of the associa tion in behalf of the negro race: “The segregation idea is spreading. Madisonville, Ky., has just passed a segregation ordinance, 1 am gommv- nieating with a committee of colored citizens of Louisville organized to op: pose its passage, “The ‘Jim Crow’ problem ‘has reached a stage where Jittle can be done except by legislation to prevent segregation.
