THE WASHINGTON AND CHICAGO RIOTS --- THIRTY-SIXTH YEAR. No.52 Dr. Wm. A. Byrd Scores Who Insulted France's Colored Troopers Southern "Crackers" Start Washington and Chicago Mob Demonstrations. IN UNION UNION THIRTY-SIXTH YEAR. THE W Dr. Wm. A. Prejudiced Sou Army Who Insulted France' Southern "Crackers and Chicago DIRTY SOUTHERN AMERICAN Prejudice and Mis-treatment Resented by the French—The Government Acts Paris, France, July 25—The Government was, interpolated in the Chamber of Deputies, this afternoon, on the rough treatment French colored soldiers are alleged to have received from the American military police, in French ports. The questions were asked by Biomef and language colleges colored deputies, respectively from Guadeloupe and Martinique. The debate that ensued ended with the unanimous adoption of the following resolution: "The Chamber, faithful to the immortal rights of all the rights of men, condemning all prejudices of religion, caste or race, solenely forms the absolute equality all men, without差别 of race and color, and their right to the benefit and protection of all the laws of the country. "The Chamber counts on the Government to apply these laws and see that the necessary penalties, for those infringements are inflicted," James Fans, Minister of the Interior, replied to the colored Deputies, said the Government had applied penalties and asked the not to insult on a discussion of the very nature of the services as France does not forget the services rendered by her colored song." The Minister of the Interior added that the American Government had not hesitated to express regrets in terms that d' France the greatest honor. M. Pains asked Deputy Boisneuf, for reasons of "high diplomacy," to drop the subject. The deputy said he would not speak of questions that involved diplomacy, he protested against the high authority authorities in these incidents. He then read a confidential circular to French officers attached to the American army, setting forth how American opinion did not tolerate "familiarity between whites and blacks." HIDING THE TRUTH --- THE GAZETTE white press is foolish to hide the truth. The truth known will end this sooner than anything else. SOUTHERN AMERICAN VILLAIN AUROAD The communication, from Paris, France, published elsewhere in this paper, shows how the southern American russian in uniform seeks to disgrace his country and also to Dr. William A. Bird. (Rev.) Win. A. Byrd. A SOUTHERN GOVERNOR Denounces the Mob Promoting Order of Klansmen as a "Desperately Wicked Appeal to Race Prejudice." Raleigh, N. C.-Dinoumeing the "Loyal Order of Klaners," which has received a state charter and is being widely advertised in the newspapers, has been called an ecstatic organ here. Gov. Bickett has called on all North Carolinians to re- pudify this "desperately wicked appeal to race prejudice," and to withhold money from "this scheme so transparently impossible, so plainly a gold brick proposition, that ordinarily the inmates of an institution of the feeble-minded could not be induced to part with their coin for a certificate of membership in such a crime, attack, which is said to be the first made by any southern governor on this disreputable organization which is secretly sweeping over the South, comes in the middle of a campaign for membership. The entrance fee for membership advertisements are being published. The governor also says: "Running thru the whole Klansman scheme is a wicked appeal to race prejudice. This is a hark back to the lawless, time that followed it till the mind of the readers was curried before the mind of the readers: the terrors of those dark days. The very name that is written on the death head is a subtle appeal to the fears and prejudices of our people. Such an appeal is desperately the order to enforce the law of this land and the appeal to race prejudice is as silly as it is sinful." LETTER THAT CAUSED RIOT At Longview, Texas—Dr. Davis and Prof. Jones Got Away—An Editor Sentenced. Special to The Gazette San Antonio, Tex., July 25, 19 Editor Gazette, My dear Friend: You will find inclosed clippings on various subjects. A four book on the longing to be about fifteen women were arrested and are in jail in Longview. Twenty-one colored were transferred to another county for safe keeping as you will see by one of the articles. Dr. Davis and family escaped to Kansas where he attempted to surrender himself to the governor. But the governor refused to receive him as he had handed him the Longview grand jury and it has adjourned for two months after investigating the riot. Nothing is known about the whereabouts of Prof. Jones. One of the clippings inclosed is from the San Antonio Injujurer a race paper, edited by Mr. Bouldin. He is under a two year penitentiary and is publicizing the action in defence of the race during the war. The article was written by a lady correspondent. The San Antonio Express and News have set aside $100,000 to combat the lynching evil in Texas. The situation of our people in Texas ranges from the worst to the best place on earth for them. If I find more clippings I shall send them until I write you what I want to get off my mind. As This is the letter Prof. Jones is charged with having sent a Chicago race paper and the publication of the recent Longview, Texas news. Longview, Texas, July 4.—Despite the fact that every effort has been made by officials here to keep the outside world from learning of a lynching of Lennel Walters of this place, Walters was taken from the Longview jail by a crowd of white men when a prominent white woman declared she loved him and that if she were in the north would obtain a divorce and marry him. Walters other than the statement made by the white woman to her personal friends. The woman has been prostrated since the lynching occurred. She is under the care of a physician at Milgore, Ohio, and she was the first person being spirited here for safe keeping. The shewiff of the jail gladly welcomed the mob and acknowledged recognition from the men as they passed in the gate to seize the prisoner. Waltown and shot to pieces. His indoform was thrown near the road side. He was buried by people of his race. White people here are angered because our people have been the source of all the groves and since this blooming the farm huds have left. Atlanta, Ga.—That Berry. Washington, age 72, was brutally lynchmurdered near Milan, Ga., on May 26, after killing a white brute in defense of our women and their homes, has just been uncovered by the Atlanta Constitution (daily) and white brutes went into the Negra section and began "cursing and disturbing them in their homes." They were after women. In an exchange of shots, one of them was killed. Mr. Washington surrendered and two days later was taken from Milan and hanged and his body shot to pieces for decimating his home and the women of his family! This is southern democracy! Great God!

Wilson by Rev. G. Robinson, presiding elder of the J. M. Church in Chattanooga, made public Monday morning. The letter written by Rev. Mr. Robinson, who acted as spokesman for the delegation of bishops and laymen of the A. M. E. Church, which presented a pledge of loyalty to President Obama, was appeals for the President's support in behalf of legislation to prevent lynchings and to force southern states to place Negroes on juries. Deny Yielding Race Clause Paris, France.—The Japanese delegation to the peace conference has issued a denial of the assertions that the Shantung settlement in the German peace treaty was in exchange for the withdrawal of the Japanese contention regarding the racial clause in the league of nations covenant. MOB LAW SELF-DETERMINATION IN WASHINGTON OUR OWN SUBJECT RACE. One of the most brutal forms of oppression is the punishment of a whole race for the crimes of individuals and it still is the practice in American States that do not recognize the citizenship of the Negro. To accuse a black man is to condemn him to torture and death, and resentment on the part of kindred is hold to justify massacres that are complacently dignified as race wars. Negroes in Washington is more properly to be thus classified than any other disturbance that we have had, and there is a reason for it worthy of serious consideration. Negroes are taking part in the hostilities. If they are as-suiled or shot, we have had them return. In defense of life, limb and liberty they are meeting mobs with mobs. Deplorable as all this lawlessness is, the response of the black man to the white man was bound to come some time. The negro has long been a victim. He has been victimized and property. He has made a place for himself in industry. The laws under which he lives guarantee him equality. He escapes no responsibility that rests upon the white man. Yet in large sections of the United States, every right and driven either into hiding or violence. Washington got or for many years, in spite of a large colored population, without any disturbance of consequence arising from racial antagonism. He also know anything about Washington, since the southerners got into the national saddle [here has been an entire change in the atmosphere of the race relationship in Washington. In Northern cities the Negro is recognized as an American citizen, with the right to public public services, whether in street cars, or other public conveyance, the executive departments or elsewhere. He comes and goes and votes and nobody pays any attention to him as a Negro. South all is different. The colored man is not only noticed as such, but he is noticed as of a distinctly inferior and servile race. In much of the South he does not vote at all and if he anywhere rides in a public conveyance he takes the "jimmy car." In much of the South, conquered Washington and took possession of the spoils there has been a constant pressure to reduce the Negro to the status which he occupies in southern cit les. There are no "jim-crow" street cars in Washington and so the Negro is made to feel that he is unwelcome on any street cur. In some of the departments it is stated that "jim-crow" rooms have been set apart in which the colored clerks have been systematically herded. In fact in all ways, so far as official influence can be assumed, Negroes in Kentucky to make the Negro "know his place," as he knows it at the South—and keep it. Naturally that is keenly resented by the colored population, which has for so many years had the same status as in northern Africa as agitized and not a "problem." The result is that there has for some time been growing up a racial hostility between the 50,000, or 60,000 Negroes in Washington and the white population in other tripping incident may at any time start a race riot. So far as soldiers have been aggressive in the matter, it may be assumed that they belong to southern regiments, or double sledges before they can number all of both races and it spreads—San Francisco (Cal.) Then chronicle. THE NATION'S DISGRACE! Inquiry Into Lynching Asked By New York City—Congressional investigation of the wave of mob violence and lynching throughout the United States was demanded in an "address to the nation" signed by former President Taft, officials of several southern states, and other nationally prominent citizens and made public here Monday by the N. A. A. C. "Patriotic citizens throughout the country feel the shame which lynchings have cast upon the nation, but they have assumed partial responsibility for this shame by their silence and their acquiescence," said the address. The time has now come when citizens of the United States no longer contemplate without protest the setting at naught of the fundamental principles upon which their citizenship is based." The address recounts that in 1918 there were sixty-seven persons "done of death and in death and declares, It is well known that the innocent, with the guilty, "suffer the cruel infliction of mob violence." A congressional investigation is urged so that "means may be found to end the scourge." Prominent signers included: Attorney General Charles J. Bonaparte, Elijah Root, Charles E. Hughes, Judge Ben B. Lindsey, and governors and former governors of seven states. THE GREAT SURRENDERER Mr. Wilson will go down in history as the Great Surrenderer. He surrendered American rights in the Panama Canal. He surrendered American rights in Mexico. He attempted to surrender American rights to the United States of Colombia. He has attempted to surrender the principles of Washington's Farewell Address. He has attempted to surrender the Monroe Doctrine. Hire Doctrine. He has attempted to surrender parts of the Constitution. He surrendered American rights in China. He is ready to surrender the Phili- ppines. He has surrendered the primacy of America to Great Britain. What a great thing for the United States it would have been had he been. President of Mexico, Golombia, China, or Premier of Great Britain! Think of how much he could then have had from those countries to our own. IN UNION IT IS STRUGGING SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS THE DAVIS ADMINISTRATION Continues to Draw a Color Line in Refusing to Appoint a Clerk in The City Hall. LYNCHINGS Last year this country was disgraced by 62 lynchings, five of the killings against Negroes continues. It is even being advertised in advance. "Ngro Jerkey and Sullen as Burne- line in a southern newspaper, "Three Thousand Will Burn Negro" hailline in another southern news- spaper. That the lynching evil can be handled effectively was recently demonstrated in Winston-Salem, N. C., where the authorities passed sentences of 14 months, to six years on 15 of the 16 men who broke into the city tail with the intention of hanging them. Mob violence is deplored by the better element of southern citizenship. That element should assert itself. The laws of this country provide fair trial and adequate punishment upon conviction. The same wisdom that prompted President Wilson to issue a public appeal against mob violence in war-time, holds good in time in dealing with Negro offenders. The south knows only too well the extent of the race problem within its gates. The race problem becomes aggravated with each new lynching; the situation worse, not better—Cleveland Press.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 2, 1919 It will be a long, long time before there will again be "race riots" in Washington and Chicago. Why? Consult the death lists of both cities. Only 40,000,000 people in Shantung are deprived of their right of self-determination" under the peace treaty which President Wilson helped to frame, while 110,000,000 people in the United States would by the terms of that same treaty abrogate their own right of self-determination and become subject to a league dominated by European politics. Why worry about Shantung when we have more cause to worry about America? Before the war, France had an alliance with Russia and an understanding with England. Now Russia drops out and America is being bound in its place. England, France and America are to constitute a balance of power. And one balance breeds another. Disguise it in all the fine words you can the ultimate fact is that the French treaty replaces Russia with America in a European alliance for war. Can any member of the U. S. Senate vote for the league of nations covenant, as President Wilson wants it ratified, and then stand on the spot where he took his oath of office and declare, "I have supported that section of the constitution which vests Congress with sole power to declare war, that section which gives Congress power to say what armies shall be raised and maintained, and, in general, the whole constitution under and by virtue of which the United States as a sovereign power has maintained the Monroe Doctrine for a hundred years?" THE MOB! A WARNING. For more than fifteen years The Gazette has been warning our people of this and all other large cities of the country to get ready for it—have a U. S. Army Riot Gun in your homes Dirty, criminal southern propaganda is behind all the "race riots" like those of last and this week at Washington and Chicago, as well as those in England and France in recent weeks. It is the merest nonsense to say that such demonstrations are not possible or probable in this or any other city in this country, these days. There were those in Washington and Chicago (as there are here and elsewhere) who said the same thing prior to recent weeks. Cleveland may be the next riot-storm center. Who knows? Southern "crackers" are numerous here as they are throughout the North, attracted by the wonderful opportunities to make money in the industries being worked overtime as a result of the World War. Wherever they are, whether in this country or Europe, in the army or out, they never sleep on an opportunity to try to get the North or Europeans to regard and treat the "Negro" as is the case in the South. Washington's population, since this country entered the World War, was increased by from fifty to one hundred thousand by southern "crackers" and this alone accounts for the riot there, last week, and the old lying reports of black men assaulting white women and killing innocent white men sent out from that city for the purpose of misleading the people of the country into believing that their criminal (riot) conduct was justified. The same "cracker" element in Chicago is clearly responsible for the starting of the riot there, this week. Cleveland may be the next. PREPARE NOW! FOR OUR NEWSPAPERS! Mr. Sol. C. Johnson, Editor, "The Tribune", Savannah, Ga. Friend Johnson:—Your letter with enclosure received and I would like to use the latter (the article), as you suggest, but for the fact that lineo- type charges hereabouts and throughout the North are so very high and for the additional fact that the article is one that should be paid for. "The Wage Earners Savings Bank and Allied Interests of Savannah, Ga." surely are too prosperous, these days, to ask or expect the race press to stand the cost of publication of the long article (nearly a column) you have sent for them. With best wishes for you and the Tribune, I am, Yours truly, HARRY C. SMITH. Before going to Europe Mr. Wilson said: "The United States (meaning Mr. Wilson) will enter into no special arrangements or understandings with particular nations." This disarmed some of the alarm about his venture. But nevertheless he comes home with the French War Treaty. We have noticed similar variances in the presidential theories and accomplishments. He also said a short time before going to Europe: "Special alliances have been the prolific cause in the modern world of the plans and passions, that produce war." Again he said: There can be no alliance within the General League of Nations." And then—a few months later he comes back with a special alliance for war with France and within the General League of Nations. A REWARD FOR THE 14 POINTS The enjoyment of the humor of the 14 points has extended beyond the countries of the belligerents. The Hyepeun of Christiana prints a cartoon headed "Political Astronomy" in which is a man gazing skyward with field glasses; another with head down in a barrel; another looking through the grass and a fourth carrying a lantern and a magnifying glass. Under the cut, "Search for Mr. Wilson's Fourteen Points—Finder Rewarded." But the president says "The treaty squares with the points." One of the cruelest and one of the earliest criticisms of Mr. Wilson was that of Premier Clemenceau who said: "Fourteen points? That is too many. The good God had but ten." many. The good God had but ten." The principal difference between the ten and the fourteen is that ten still exist, un-questioned, untarnished and unstained. Public opinion has decided that the president did not in the least take the Senate and the American people into his conference when he recently addressed the Senate. His address, analyzed, is found to be but a sentimental appeal. The facts in the case remain concealed. Private and confidential individual interviews with certain senators in which the president discloses what he desires to disclose and withholds what he desires to withhold, does not give information to the people whose country this is. It is not pitiless publicity. It is not open covenants of peace openly arrived at. Why should not the people be told about the Monroe Doctrine, Shantung, the French War Treaty, how the league of nations affects our nationality, how it affects our domestic affairs, immigration and tariff, how Section X involves us to go to war, etc.? The acuteness of the intellect of President Wilson is well understood. He should speak openly and fully before public opinion takes another advance and decides that he is concealing because it will weaken his contents to disclose. BRISBANES "SCARE" Mr. Arthur Brisane said in the Cleveland News of July 30, '19. Included among fighting matters that need attention at home are the disturbing race riots that become dangerously frequent. "And most disturbing, and dangerous for the Negro race, is news that two thousand Negroes in New York cheered a Negro speaker's suggestion that the Negroes should solve their difficulties by force. A number of Negro clergymen present at that meeting know, if their followers do not, that force cannot settle any problem for them. The odds are too great in numbers and in ability. Besides, real force resides in government, and this entire government is white." At the time of the War of the Revolution the entire English government was English, Mr. Brisbane! And yet force settled the question involved in that contest and settled it right, too. The results of the "force" used in the Washington and Chicago riots by "Negroes" will be salutary and most helpful indeed in discouraging a recurrence of such terrible affairs here in the North and elsewhere in this country. Jack Johnson to Fight Tom Cowler. New York, N. Y. — In a letter Jack Johnson, who is sojourning in Mexico writes that he is to engage in a ten round boxing contest on Aug. 4 with Tom Cowler and that he has a side bet for $2,500. In speaking of his recent battle with Roller, which he won, Jack said: "It was just a cake walk. I hit him at will and had him going in the very first round. The American press claimed that the Mexicans hissed me while in the ring. You can say for me that nothing of the kind occurred. All Mexicans here are friendly toward me, and this is a wonderful country." Jack ended by saying, relative to the coming fight with Cowler, "you can bet I will be the winner." THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, AUGUST 2, 1919 DOINGS OF THE RACE On July 24 another "Negro" was lynched 25 miles from Longview, Texas. Jackson Hill, an aged Afro-American farmer of Fayette, Mo., left an estate valued at $40,000. Alex. W. Walters left his Afro-American servant, Zulma Powell, $10,000. He died July 3. Joseph Samuel, of South Orange, N. J. willed his servant Bessig Stern, a member of the race, $50,000—more than his relatives received. He died, June 19. Sergt Wilson, of the Washington, D. C., police force, was shot dead, last week Monday night, by a colored woman when he attempted to force his way into her house in pursuit of an alleged riot. WASHINGTON QUIET Special to The Gazette Washington D. C.—Almost normal conditions have at last settled down upon the nation's capital after the terrible experiences of last week. While the daily press has been free to admit that more whites were killed and injured than our people it has been impossible to learn just how many. Terrible as it has been, yet it is a lesson to the whites of this country to learn and that is that our people in Europe and the north will not quietly submit to being shot down in the streets like dogs and lynched, without striking back like most of our people in the South have been compelled to for so many years because of their environment. The lesson is being repeated in Chicago, this week, and with a vengeance. Detroit Cleveland, Pittsburgh and Buffalo PREFARE! VICTIMS OF CHICAGO RIOTS Chicago, Ill.—Following is a list of 21 persons killed in the race rots here, Monday: **White** EUGENE CAPPEL, stabbed. ——DEDRICK, motorman, beaten death.

He states: "On December 1 (1918) the Editor of The Crisis went to France. He heard of conditions, acts, conspiracies, wholesale oppression and cruelty of which he had had no previous inkling. For four long months story after story, and document after document, poured into the editor's hands substantiating the above charges. For four months the editor was helpless." "Now, as a matter of fact, was he helpless? for if he knew as he states, that while abroad he was under surveillance and was compelled to sign a pledge (and brave, bold man that he is, he signed it!) prohibiting him from sending by mail or by cable any of the news contained in those numerous "stories" and "documents" which he said he was constantly receiving for "four long months," why in the name of high Heaven and human jus- A. PROFESSOR J. M. SPINGARN. tice did he not hasten back to America that we together might co-operate and seek to control the situation he describes. According to his own written statement, he knew of these conditions and did absolutely nothing "for four long months," except to devote time to a nebulous organization which effectually did nothing except to get the editor's name in some few newspapers. What then gives him grace or "nerve" to criticize me? Again I say I refuse to recognize his piny right to call me to account. The account of my stewardship has been laid and will be further laid before Colored Americans generally and it is their verdict, and not Dr. DuBois' which will be the final one reached in this matter. However, I am not disposed to permit a man that is not following the dictates of honest judgment but actuated by motives, as I have stated, which he dare not disclose to the public, to discredit a record which has been made in the open view of the whole Negro and white population of America—a record of which I am not the least bit ashamed so far as my efforts and labors are concerned. The difficulty under which every official, including the Secretary of War, labored during the war, is to be rehearsed at a time like this, but Dr. DuBois lives quite up to the traditions of certain groups of colored people, whether born in the Southland or in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, in giving full and complete credit wherever possible to white officials, as he rightly and generously does in the case of Secretary Baker, and in seeking to discredit a Negro official no matter how earnestly and faithfully he may have labored by the side of that selfsame worthy white official. Dr. DuBois' desire to secure a place in the War Department last summer occasioned me no personal uneasiness or discomfiture. It had no personal criticism of him because he sought a commission in the Army for none of his activities would have directly or indirectly encroached upon any of my own duties as Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, which fact, I assume, he well knows. I was merely loyal to the understanding that was reached by him and me and one of his closest white friends who called with him to see me in the War Department before the Editor of Confederate Times when he was anxious to secure, as he will confess, I am sure, not a "Captain's commission" but a "Major's commission" for that is what he really sought while being willing if necessary to accept the Captain's commission. It will be noted that in his so-called "reply," Dr. DuBois completely dodges and evades answering the questions I propounded to him in my open letter previously published; he fails absolutely to cite one specific case of overseas complaints of colored men that he ever brought to my attention, or in which he explicitly wecked in remedial action. If he positively knew of the gross injustices being perpetrated or visited upon Nepgr soldiers overseas, and of all the conditions he mentions under seven (7) different heads, why did he not come back to America before "four long months" had expired and worked up that "public opinion" of which he speaks "that would have brought Greer and his comperees home?" What is he doing now to punish Greer while engaged in his work? What is he doing now to his peers, whose records stand comparison with his, and who bow not at the feet of the All-Highest. W. E. H. D. R. W. E. B. DuBois At a time like the present, when all elements and influences among the Negrq people should be united against the common foes of genuine "Freedom and Democracy," which should be shared in and enjoyed by black men as well as white men—it is to be deplored that Dr. DuBois or anyone else has seen fit to divide counsels among the Negro people by adopting a policy of personal criticism merely because one does not dance to the tune of his fiddle, and does not care to adopt the destructive methods so long and unsuccessfully, followed by him and his company (Major J. E. Spinell) who like himself, prefers schism, confusion and discord to amity, peace and concord, unless forsooth, they are the reigning factors in a given situation. But enough of this. I have entered upon new and important duties here at Howard University as Secretary-Treasurer and Business Manager, and Hon. Emmett J. Scott have but little or no time to devote to personal controversy and private bickering. The editor of The Crisis is welcome to continue his program of criticism and fault-finding. He will not disturb me. Cordially yours, Emmett J. Scott. With prejudiced southerners stopping the erection of a hospital for our people by the state of Maryland, refusing the use of the U. S. mails to several of our newspapers publishing severe criticisms of the lynching of Afro-Americans in the south, promoting "race riots" at the nation's capital as well as elsewhere in the South and North, and trying to rob Howard University of its regular Congressional appropriation, etc. etc., it would seem as if they were really trying to "carry the war into Africa" now that the World War is over. It is certainly great satisfaction for "The Old Reliable" Gazette to see so many of its contemporaries finally reaching the conclusions, as to Editor Wm. DuBois, it has published and republished repeatedly ever since the Editors' Conference in Washington, D.C., last year in June. The Gazette was the first race publication to expose DuBois and with the exception of the Pittsburgh Courier, for many months the only one to do so. The First Edition of the Gazette Editor Geo. W. Harris of the N.Y. News' editorial were the first real exposes to follow The Gazette's and now many race publications have awakened to the duty they owe the race, and DuBois, too. Good! The following is Ralph Wilgera Tyler's compliments (?) to "Captain" Wm. DuBois: "You state in the July number of the Crisis, according to the same advance sheet I have seen, and which, under your editorial management, apparently, is degenerating into a medium through which to give vent to your personal spleen and dissatisfaction with every one, save your mother, the wife, and nothring, that since my return I have 'published practically nothing.'" Hot stuff, for the $5,000 a year editor of the Crisis. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, AUGUST 2, 1919 Sergt. Giddens in a Three Round Bout with Georges Carpentier, France's Champion Fighter—Great Ball Teams—Personal Chillicothe, O—Camp Sherman was given new life, recently, by the arrival of the 802nd and the 813th Infantries. Most all these boys were trained here and left for the other side, last August. They have seen some hard and rough service all of which has made them better men to "earve on" here. The 802d boasts of some "star" men in the athletic line, and not with out reason, because of the record they left here. Sgt. Geo. Williams is here in fine shape after his many battles on the field, and in the ring. Sgt. Lane is also with us for a few days. He did his bit on this side. Sgt. Giddens, who rendered valuable service to the writer last year as boxing instructor for the regiment, is back and looks better than ever. While on the other side Giddens had many ring battles in which he was always victor, his feat of putting on a three-round exhibition with Carpentier, the French champion, and coming out without damage is conclusive of his ability as a fighter. All of these men were members of that famous Sherman Giants ball team of last year. Speculation is rife as to the relative merits of last year's team and the one we have this year. The writer has played on both teams and no doubt exists in his mind on that point, but fans are in doubt. So we are trying to arrange a series of games in Cleveland on 'Emanipation day at which time the dispute will be settled like we settled it last year. The men of the Service Battalion were given another big time, week before last, at the Hostess house. They had plenty to eat and drink (lemonade) and danced between meals. The famous Battalion Jazz band, Chase, Lewis, Blackley and Boardley, distributed melody most profusely and the feet of the most conservative could not resist to shuffle as those enticing syncopated strains were wafted over the zephyr on the banks of the beautiful Sciota river. Much credit is due Sgts. Wells and Morrison, the two men who have charge of the Bn. mess. Sgt. Wells spent a pleasant and prolonged furlough in Cleveland recently—Lt. L. A. Ozley is in Washington, D. C. on furlough—Sec. C. E. Frye is back again after having spent two weeks at the Y. summer school in Maryland—Sec. Hough has been very busy the past two weeks, completing plans for his convention. Everything is all on hold. The executive is anxiously waiting for the 23rd, when he will perhaps sound the gavel for the last time, having been the executive head of that august body for the last nine years. T. R. Pettyjohn.
