LAND OPEN FOR SOLDIERS.
Over 4,000 Tracts to Be Offered Ex-
Service Men
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Exsoldiers obtain land in Western Oregon while it lasts. The Interior Department will open for homestead 4,000 tracts of land, April 12, and former soldiers will have preference for filing on it till July 8. There is a total of 360,000 acres of the best government has available, and former soldiers have 60 days' preference in filing on this day, the preference period beginning, May 10, but they may file any time after April 12. One person can take 160 acres. He must pay down 50 cents an acre and $2 an acre more when he proves his claim. To prove a civil must live on the land seven months a year for three years and cultivate it. Those who served three years may take a claim, pay $2.50 an acre, move it and his heed from the government at once. Then there are hundreds of our boys, who were wounded in the World War who are not taking advantage of the compensation offered them by the government, providing they file their claim before one year from the date of their discharge. Get in touch with your local Red Cross headquarters, at once, for this compensation. Additional compensation provided by the Sweet bill, will give a maximum of $80 a month to single men and $125 a month to married men.

Cleveland, O., March 28, '20.
My dear Friend, Mr. Smith:—So many of my friends have been asking me recently whether or not I am the secretary of the so-called Negro Chamber of Commerce, I wonder if you will be good enough to tell the people for me that I am not sure will be, especially, as long as it is under the dim supervision of the prescient administration. It seems to be a perfect shame that the intelligent members of the organization allow Dr. Alphabetic Williams, the president, to pull the wool over their eyes, by buying a goodly amount of their Investment Company stock, with his own "stock" that is, the "stock" of the Daily-Colored American, have been informed that all African people, desiring to stock the city, must the O.

and Hobart, E. E. Earle
From the, South.
Rev. J. G. Robinson, who came to Cleveland on the invitation of Rev Jos. M. Eynes, pastor of St. James N. M. E Church, is conducting a series of evangelistic meetings at that church on Hudson Ave. near E. 106th St. The meetings will close Sunday night. I up to now, many have been converted. Dr. Robinson is considered one of the greatest evangelicals been converted through his persuasive preaching. He has faced five moves in his life, fighting in the south for race uplift and has called on the President more than once, urging better treatment for our people. He wrote a letter to President Wilson, during the World War, asking for better treatment and put the race's concerns into the President's letter appeared in nearly every metropolitan paper in this country and Europe. This letter so aroused the south that he was driven from that section. Dr. Robinson has an interesting family, his wife, a woman of exceptional intelligence, being one of our remarkable women—a sweet singer, a spiked wife and mother. During the World War she did very well in Tennessee and Alabama. Their son, Douglas, was the youngest lieutenant in service during the World War and after being honorably discharged, entered the law department of Howard University. Washington, D. C. When a lad he, as agent of "The Old Reliebe" Gazette, sold hundreds of copies of it in Dayton and Bellefontaine, their daughter is the graduate of Lincoln University. They are members of the faculty of the State N. & L. School, Normal Ala., he teaching science, and Mrs. Townsend, the primary department. Mrs. Robinson directs the singing in all of Dr. Robinson's religious campaigns.

SAM LANGFORD WON!
COLUMBUS. O—Sam Langford stopped Jamaica kid in the seventh round with a right to the kidneys. He put Kid down for the count of eight and Jamaica refused to come out for the eighth round, claiming injury to his leg muscles. Langford in close hurt Jamaica with every pivot. He left for good use and used the ropes to good advantage. Referee Scott warned Langford several times for not breaking clean. In the fourth round Kid brought Langford to his knees with a straight on jaw. Jack Russell beat Homer Harrison, both heavyweights, in a screamingly funny match. Tommy Reed out of the ring, Cohee stalling, Jimmy Mars knocked out Babe Farley in two minutes of first round with right to chin.

Special to The Gazette
NEW YORK, N. Y., March 29—For several years, right under the "protound" rose of Subordinate-grievance Dubois, a mess has been festering, and its putrescence remained in "secrety." But a new chapter is now enacting the history of New York City. The "multitude" are nauseated at the mess. "The Old Reliable" Gazette of Cleveland must be credited as the pioneer journalistic champion of the badly needed new phase of Negro professional and industrial evolution. Since much will be published about the fight which the mussess have started and the Gazette has been proving proper that the beginning of the story he written to "The Old Reliable." An epitome of the preface and of the first chapter runs thus:
From engineering science have evolved many trades and a few learned professions. Of the latter, one of great antiquity became intimately associated with another old profession for buildings, begun a new class of structures that is the joint product of an architect and a civil engineer.
When the world's metropolis—while still the second city—became a victim of Young Men's Antichristian Association in the latter's "jim-crow" stuff, the evil moved space. Then a building, was proposed, and Mr. Vertner Woodson Tandy, architectural graduate of Cornell University, the only Negro who won a second medal in the Beaux Arts Architects competition, wanted to architect for the building. A 151st floor President Mr. Tandy made a set of drawings for the proposed building at a cost, not to exceed $200,000. Of course, Mr. Tandy was turned down—of course! Why not? Did not Mr. J. E. Moorland, Y. M. C. A. International Secretary then say that "no Negro" was "competent to be an architect" for the then proposed Y. M. C. A.? A white architect who never gave a Negro a position as an architectural draftman in his office was, of course, quite "competent." Ergo, the new structure that now stands does not contain a Turkish building which Tandy did not add. The present building, moreover, is decidedly less beautiful, not larger, and no more durable than the one proposed by Mr. Tandy. And the cost of this "jim-crow" building was not less than $340,000. The New York Age used so much space lauding the Segregation Branch that it did not compare the competent white cost of $340,000 with the Tandy $200,000 price:
The Sarco Realty Co., of New York, of which a Mr. Roach is president, is projecting a New York theater to cater to Negroes. Mr. William Hunter Dammond, of Boston, Mass., and formerly of Nottingham, England, and Detroit, Michigan, asked for the work of designing the structural steel work. Of course, Mr. Dammond, the first Negro graduate of the University of Pittsburgh (with the degree of C. E.) was turned down. Mr. Roach did not say that the only reason he was turned down was that Dammond as consultant engineer was the fact that the applicant was a Negro—but, the work will be done by a white engineer in whose office one cannot find a single Negro engineering draftsman. How about Mr. Tandy? He is certainly not architect for the Sarco Company's Negro Theatre. The architectural designer for the Sarco Theatre is a white architect who has not a single Negro draftman in his office. Already colored sentiment is strong and growing rapidly against the Sarco Theatre and in favor of the proposed Casino for the corner of Seventh Avenue and 138th Street. The company does not claim lies in the fact that the Harlem Enterprises Company, in projecting the Casino, retained Mr. Tandy as architect. The Harlem Enterprises Company, of whom Mr. Tetley is President, is a bona fide Negro organization. Your scribe has not as yet been able to ascertain whether the Sarco Co. is a "mixed" association.
The ugly mood created by this situation in New York is causing many to wonder whether the mixed company, whose headquarters are in Boston, in projecting Negro theatres, will adopt the motto, "Negro architects and Negro consulting engineers need not apply, for designing the theater," and misgivings breed suspicions. On every hand one hears that the proverbial "they" are reciting the fact that Mr. Tandy's international professional achievements include buildings in tropical Porto Rico and frigid Alaska, the

eleven educational buildings of the Lincoln Institute, Kentucky, a theatre in New York City, and the palatial residence of the late Mme. Walker. They then wonder whether the ten theatres will be designed by Mr. Tandy. If the white man who is running the business of the mixed Boston company employs a white architect, the ten theatres in the single New York theatre, are not Mr. Hettley's company the logical leaders of the movement for building one Negro theatre in each of the ten cities for fighting against the mixed company?

Leonard Wood with refused to permit our boys to attend the officers' training school, over which he presided, at Plattsburg, N. Y., at the outbreak (for this country) of the World War. How about it? Ohio Afro-Americans are for Senata Warren G. Harding for the Republcation and do not let any one fool you into believing otherwise with any other kind of talk. We KNOW "where the Senator is" on EVERY question that concerns the race. Can that be said of any other candidate? Dr. LeRoy N. Bundy's case is yet to be heard in the Supreme Court. We are glad, however, that he has secured his liberty pending that hearing, and we sheerly hope that that august case. The continued offer to him the "goat" of that infamous E.

There is no truth in the story being industriously circulated here in Cleveland and elsewhere in the state by "Ohio junkers of color" to the effect that the Hon. Harry M.

The reception and banquet, tendered Bishop C. H. Phillips and Mrs. L. H. Brown, wife of the pastor, at Lane Metropolitan C. M. E. church, Monday evening, was a thoroughly enjoyable success. The program, which included addresses by Rev. P. Oppenholt, Dr. E. O. Baldy, the editor of The Gazette and Bishop Phillips, a solo by Mrs. Crow and three songs by the Choral club of the church, was presided over by Dr. L. H. Brown. The music and addresses were good and fully appreciated by a large audience. The singing of the newly organized Choral club, under the direction of Mr. Murray Adams, was a most agreeable surprise and a credit to its director and Mrs. Wm. Owens who is its organizer. Board, No. 2, of the church, Mrs. Nannie Nukes, presides Mrs. Bailcy sec. to be praised for the success of the affair, particularly for the sumptuous repast served at the conclusion of the program. Editor Wm. Monroe Trotter of Boston, will speak at the church, the last of this month, and be introduced by the editor of The Gazette. Preparations are being made to make this event an exceptional affair.

SATURDAY, APRIL 3, 1920
The Gazette's Washington representative, Prof. Neval H. Thomas is certainly "ratling the dry-bones" of southern democratic "statesmen" and "jim crow" Negroes at the nation's capital. Keep up the good work, Neval.
Gov. Henry J. Allen, of Kansas, deserves the thanks of the entire race for refusing to extradite Robert L. Hill, a member of the race, wanted by those Elaine, Ark. lynch-murderers.
Sometimes men in the trenches stick a dummy up above the breastworks to draw the fire of the enemy. This is not suggesting that the President has put Mr. Hoover up for that purpose. However, it does seem strange that some of the men who put Hoover up have been pretty close to the President.
It is said that Secretary John H. Shilady, Assist. Sec. Walter H. White, Editor Wm. E. DuBois, Field Agent James W. Johnson and Organizer Wm. Pickens, officers of the N. A. A. C. P., are paid salaries aggregating $25,000 a year. That is a good deal of money for poor Afro-Americans to pay for the results secured. What do our contemporaries think about it?
Unwillingness to accept aid from the government and ignorance of the fact that compensation is due them is preventing many Cleveland formerservers men wounded in the World War from claiming compensation, according to Col. D. H. Pond, a member of the Red Cross committee. He pointed out Monday, the urgency of men disabled in service filing claims before the period of grace, one year from date of discharge, expires. Applications are received by Miss Elsie Ouiggle, Ontario 994. Additional compensation provided by the Sweet bill will give a maximum of $80 a month to single men and $125 a month to married men. Red Cross headquarters are at 600 Standard Parts building.

The Cleveland Hardware Company, a leading local corporation, which employs hundreds of our men and women, has established a precedent in sending Robert K. Hodges, supt. of the employment department of the plant, among our schools of the south, to tell our students of the advantages offered by the company and to encourage them to come north and work for it during their vacation. Mr. Hodges will visit Tuskegee, Atlanta, Nashville and many other southern cities where we have schools. President Adams, of the C. H. Co., is a wise business man and this move is certainly a good one for his company and the students who take advantage of the opportunity presented by Friend Hodges.
Ralph Wilgeria Tyler and Ormonde Forte went to Columbus, Monday, to see the Wood state headquarters manager, it is said. They returned, Wednesday. Tuesday evening in his room at Hotel Statler, Senator Harding told a representative of The Gazette that his headquarters paid Tyler's expenses to Chicago to attend that recent Lincoln League convention in the Harding candidacy's interests. Well, well well! Our readers will remember that The Gazette wondered, at the time, how Tyler got there. Dr. J. G. Robinson was with the representative of The Gazette and the Senator tell him. The more one sees and learns of some people the more, etc. etc. The Negro members of the Maschke-Davis organization do not seem to know that Tyler is NOW against Senator Harding's candidacy and for Woods'. They gave him the advertisement for the Central-Marion Ave. bath house opening. How about it "Boss" Maurice Maschke? Do you allow them to promote your political
enemy's interests while he fights your candidate for the Republican nomination for the Presidency? How about it "Captain Star!"
The most unsightly and poorest appearing bath house in the city, we really believe is that Central-Marion Ave. homely pile of bricks, which was formally opened, Tuesday evening, with exercises designed to "boost" Councilman Tom Fleming. The thing, the speakers claimed, is to cost $100,000 when completed, while the city clerk's office maintains that only $0,000 have been appropriated by the City Council for it. The same city officials also claim that the new bathhouse for poor whites out St. Clair Ave., between E. 60th and 70th streets, is to cost $200,000, when only $100,000 has been appropriated for it. It has TWICE the number of showers, etc. that the Central-Marion Ave. affair has and is far superior to the latter in appearance and many respects. Why our people of the Central Ave. district and the poor whites out St. Clair Ave. have been treated so differently, the latter so much better, is a question Tom Fleming, who sat in the Council and allowed this unfairness to be "put over" without a single word of protest, ought to be made to explain. The Davis administration is responsible for it.
As a confirmed pessimist Samuel G. Blythe is almost without a rival. Discussing American politics in a recent issue of the Saturday Evening Post, he says: "Politics is rotten—rottener even than most of those suspects who have none but casual knowledge of the insides of it."
And it was only last January that Mr. Blythe wrote an article showing that Cleveland in 1892, Taft in 1908, Wilson in 1912, and Hughes in 1916 were nominated in response to a demand from the people. Since everybody knows that the nominations of Bryan, Roosevelt and McKinley were in response to the demand of the people of their respective parties, there will be full concurrence in his statement of last January that: "The fact that the people have made their choice from a political list does not alter the fact that they made that choice and impressed it on the politicians." It is very evident that Mr. Blythe is getting himself into an embarrassing position. He first shows that the people are dictating the nomination of candidates, and then declares that American politics is rotten. In fact, he says in his latest article, "the reason politics is rotten is because the very people who complain loudest of its putridity have allowed it to decay as it has." Since Mr. Blythe does not argue that politics is worse today than it has been in the past, and since he asserts that the people have dictated politics in the past, it will be difficult for him to escape the logical conclusion that he is condemning the good sense and honesty of the American people.
THE HARDING CANDIDACY.
Senator Warren G. Harding's visit in the city, Tuesday, especially his several speeches in the evening, have awakened the Ohio spirit and pride in Cleveland as it has not been awakened since the days of McKinley's first campaign for the Presidency. At the largest meeting, in Gray's armory, where nearly three thousand people crowded into a building, erected to accommodate about two thousand, to hear the Senator speak, there was unmistakable evidence of the fast growing interest in his candidacy for the Republican nomination for the Presidency. The enthusiasm was great and everybody was happy. The Senator's speech was a masterpiece and thoroughly satisfied and delighted the large audience. His frank expressions anent our people pleased greatly. There is no question as to where the Senator stands on all matters of vital racial interest.
At the Senator's request, the editor of The Gazette held a half hour's conference with him in the Hotel Statler immediately after the meeting in Gray's armory, Tuesday night. Rev. J. G. Robinson and another friend (white) were asked into this conference by the editor. We shall have more to say of it in early issues of The Gazette. Suffice it to say at this time that matters of racial interest were discussed and in an entirely satisfactory manner. Our best candidate for the Republican nomination for the Presidency is Senator Warren G. Harding, as we have repeatedly said in recent weeks.

THE "MOST ANCIENT PILE" IN EUROPE.
THE TOWER OF LONDON,
COVERING A SITE OF THIRTEEN ACRES, IS THE
PRODUCT OF MANY
CENTURIES
PROCESSION OF THE "ESCORT OF KEYS" AT MIDNIGHT, WHEN PASSWORD IS GIVEN
Palace and prison, once noted also for its menageries and its pageantry, birthplace and death house of monarchs, scene of hairbreadth escapes and reputed hidden treasures, ghastly in its memories of tortures and killings and sacred for its martyrs, the Tower of London amply warrants description as the "most ancient and most poetic pile" Europe. While the Compass gave London a charter, but built the White Tower to show the people how little that charter might mean. Like the English constitution the rambling London Tower of today is a product of centuries, and not one, but many towers, now are scattered over some thirteen acres. The site had been a fortress since Roman times.
To the Middle Tower Elizabeth came back a queen five years after her jealous half-sister, Mary, had kept her there a prisoner. The humplacked Richard III hired three assassins to murder his nephews in Bloody Tower. Not until years later were their bones found and taken to Westminster Abbey.
Lady Jane Grey, she who "had the birth of a princess, the life of a saint, and the death of the male-factor," was beheaded in London Tower.
Another curiosity of the tower form the Warders or "beef eaters." They were called "beef eaters," it is said, because they once were fed on rations of meat.
They wear Tudor customs, and like the Swiss bodyguard of the pope, they keep their ancient costumes, undisturbed by currents of modern fashion.
Just before midnight the head warder and the porter, carrying a bunch of huge keys, go to the guardroom, summon "the escort of the keys", made up of "beef eaters", and then proceed ceremoniously to lock the great outer gate. The password is given formally to sentries as the procession passes, and in consulsion the detail salutes the keys as the porter cries, "God preserve the king". Every three months the reigning king or queen sends the password to the tower to the con, stable, signed and sealed, and the mayor of London is the only other outside person supposed to know it. This custom is a relic of the time when the tower was primarily a fortress.
WHAT IS A FRESH EGG?
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.—That is the puzzling question raised by a new state law which prohibits the sale of anything but fresh eggs. Of course, the easiest way to tell is to see whether the egg retaliates in its own odoriferous way when it is smashed, but the problem is to decide an egg's age without "giving it the Christopher Columbus." A committee called by Freidl, Rasmussen, state secretary of agriculture, after a five-hour conference, during which eggs of all ages were tested, decided to define a fresh one as follows:
"It's white is capable of whipping well. In cooking it can be satisfactorily poached or soft boiled. It has not exposed foreign disagreeable odors. Its enclosure shall not have developed appreciably. The yolk should be fairly stiff and well-rounded and the white should not be watery and the chalaza shall be well defined."
The "chalaza" is the skin that holds the yolk intact. Still you have to "bust" the egg to decide.
KISS DEMANDED
IN LIEU OF FINE
A curious custom, the Hockledee festival of Kissing Day, is observed in Hungerford, England. With the exception of three years of war, it has been observed every year since the days of John of Gaunt, and was revived this year. With a trumpet 300 years old the trumpeter opens the day, blowing it on the balcony of the courthouse. The town crier, in reduced suit, rings his bell and calls all commoners to court. The tuttimen, two villagers, start on their round carrying poles to which are affixed large bouquets. They enter each shop and house to collect a onepence fine and failing in this exact a kiss from the wife and daughters of each commoner. Signs of struggle are frequent, but each time a kiss is obtained.

WORCESTER, Mass.—John D. Rockefeller, multi-millionaire "oil king," has overcome his nemesis, indigestion. If he became known that, traveling by automobile from Seal Harbor, Me, to Tartarytown, N.Y., he stopped here for lunch and ate the following:
Frogs' legs, clams, potatoes, peas, beets, salads, pie, blueberries and coffee.
John D. once said that he would readily give up his millions for a new stomach.
FIND $1,200 IN TREE.
STEUBENVILLE, O.—Sixty new $80 bills, neatly wrapped in paper, were found in a hollow oak tree near here by two hunters. Officials are inclined to believe that the money was placed in the tree for black-wailers who failed to show up.
"Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter it and accept it as a law of nature."— John Stuart Mill.

BOLSHEVISM VERSUS
CHRISTIANITY
Bolshevik Government Has Shown Its Hostility To The Christian Religion.
"Bolshevism and the Christian religion can not both survive," affirms the report of the Senate Judiciary Committee on Bolshevism. An examination of this report, says the Minneapolis Tribune, will convince the American Christian that "Russia Bolshevism triumph in this country would be followed by the confiscation of 203,432 church edifices; by the suppression of all denominational Sunday-schools, semaries, and colleges; and by aisthetic dictatorship domination over 41,926-854 church members." What the Bolshevik government has done to show its hostility to the Christian religion is thus summarized from the Senate report by the Minneapolis paper:
"It has confiscated all church property, real and personal."
"It has established the right of antireligious propaganda as a constitutionally recognized institution.
"It has suppressed Sunday-shools and has expressly forbidden the teaching of all religious doctrines in public, either in shools or in educational institutions of any kind.
"It prohibits religion from being taught or studied except in private.
"It has abolished all recognition of the supreme being in governmental and judicial oaths.
"It has distranchised expressly all clergy and servants and employees of church bodies and has deprived them of all right to hold public positions."
"Under the old imperialistic regime—sinner that it was—it became the practice by both custom and decree that every newspaper and every periodical published on Easter Sunday throughout the Russian Empire carried the commemorative headline, 'Christ is Risen.' On Easter Sunday of 1018 the Bolshevik publications substituted the legends: "One hundred years ago today Karl Marx was born."
STRANGE FLOWERS
Remarkable Phenomenon Observed On Battlefields Of France.
A strange phenomenon is to be seen at present on the battlefields of France. Flowers, not known within living memory, are breaking out on the scarred surface and in shell holes and dugouts.
Botanists have become interested in the discovery of the plants, which it is believed, have sprung from seeds buried in the depths of the earth for decades past, according to "Stray Stories." A well-known botanist in London, discussing this phenomenon, said:
"There is evidence that seeds may be buried for a large number of years awaiting the time of germination.
"It is known that seeds have been buried for upwards of sixty years without losing their power of germination. Seeds are often and frequently buried with Egyptian mummies thousand of years ago have been planted in the twentieth century and have germinated in the ordinary way.
"It is quite possible that strange floweringplants—that is, strange to the local inhabitants—are now flowering in the French battlefields. The heavy shellfire which has torn up the earth may have created conditions for their growth after lying dormant so long."
HOSELESS GIRLS IN VOGUE
NEW YORK—The Paris stockingless fashion was initiated here by three little maids from school—quite a way from school. They were the Misses Kathryn Perry, Alta King and Margaret Pierre, of the "Follies."
Did they actually appear on a New York street without stockings on their—irlimbs? They did. They appeared on Fifth Avenue. And what's more, they climbed up the outside spiral stairs of a Fifth avenue bus.
Everyone within sight learns the latest color of hosiery when a girl prances up those steep stairs. Men gasped and held women sniffed. They realized that what they all first thought to be flesh-colored hosiery was really part and parcel of the "Follies" girls.
"I can't make my eyes behave," is one of the songs the Misses Perry, King and Pierre sing. A good many men on Fifth avenue had eye trouble, too.
SUN. BATHS
CURE DISEASES.
Danish Physician Says White Sunlight Heals In Some Cases, It Has Bad Effects In Others.
COPENHAGEN—A young Danish physician, Dr. Haxthausen, on the staff of the National Hospital, Copenhagen, publishes the results of some new experiments concerning the effects of sunbeams on human health.
Dr. Finsen's discovery of the healing effects of sunshine in cases of lupus, and Dr. Reyn's statements concerning the surprising effects in tuberculosis treatment, have created a widespread popular belief in Scandinavia in the curative power of sunlight acting on the bare skin. In consequence all Danish bathing places are filled with people who after a short dip, doze for hours in the sun.
Dr. Haxthausen now states that sunlight has had bad effects in many cases, and is often the original cause of skin disease, especially epithelial cancer (cancer of the skin or mucous membrane). Protection against light he says, should be part of the treatment in this disease. People of fair complexion are more liable to the disease than brunettes, and should be careful to wear hats and gloves. Veils are of no use.
31.07
Pattern 3107 here illustrated is cut in 6 Sizes: 34, 36, 38, 40, 42 and 44 inches bust measure. Size 38 will require 5 1/4 yards of 44 inch material. Width of skirt at lower edge is about 1 1/4 yard. As here shown gray taffeta was used, braided with white soutche. One could have this in brown serge or satin, with worsted, head or chemile embroidery. Black velvet with facings of ivory satin, or taupe duvetyn with old blue pipings would be very attractive for this design.

3101
A MODEL VERY ATTRACTIVE FOR SLENDER FIGURES
Pattern 3101, cut in 3 Sizes: 16,
.8 and 20 years, is here depicted.
Blue crepe de meteor was used for
its development, with bead embroidery
for decoration. This would be nice in brown satin or crepe, with
embroidery in colors. The 16 year
size will require 5½ yards of 36
inch material, with 3 yards of ribbon or material 5 inches wide, for the sash. Width of skirt at lower edge is 1½ yard.

12 in silver or 16 and 20 stamps.
3117
Pattern 2117, cut in 6 Sizes: 32, 34, 36, 38, 40 and 42 inches bust measure, is here portrayed. I will require 1% yard of 36 inch material for a 38 inch size. The design is good for "all over" embroidery, for tawn, knitwear, satin, silk, crope batiste and cambric. It is simple easy to develop and to adjust.
A pattern of this illustration needed to any address on receipt of 1c in silver or 1c and 2c stamps.
THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, APRIL 3, 1920
Against The Mob and Lynch-Murder—The Work of a Member of The Race—Also Ohio's Civil Rights Law.
Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took Hon. Harry C. Smith, the editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the law which has been very effective. Only one other state (Illinois) in this country has such a law and it is largely a copy of our Ohio law. Here it is—(in the statutes) under the heading
Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2).
Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71s General Assembly, in 1894:
The General Code of Ohio:
Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public convenience by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen
Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such injury as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.)
Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a club, mob, and assaulted with whips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.)
Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if injury result in permanent disability to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 162 5.)
Section 6282. The legal representative of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occured, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor children surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v 162 6.)
Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall be properly injured or killed by such a mob. (93 v 162 6.) Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7.) Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery is hard, to bring it with the costs and expenses of the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.)
Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.)
Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against the law of the legal representatives of a person killed or seri- tively injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob. A person present, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.)
Section 6288. If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials such prisoner or dispuse such mob. (03 v 163 11.)
Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (03 v 163 12.
OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW
Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio
Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894:
The General Code of Ohio:
Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodation facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both.
Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed.
This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts.
"HUMAN NATURE'S
FOULEST BLOT."
My ear is pained
My soul is sick with every day's
report.
Of wrong and outrage, with
which the earth is filled.
There is no flesh in man's ob-
durate heart.
It does not feel for man: the
natural bond
Of brotherhood is severed as
the flax
That falls asunder at the touch
of fire.
He finds his fellow guilty of a
skin
Not colored like his own: and
having power
To enforce the wrong, for such
a worthy cause
Dooms and devotes him as his
lawful prey.
Thus man devotes his brother,
and destroys;
Tis human nature's broadest
foulest blot.
—Cowper.

Gentleman,
About six years ago I was taken with convulsions. I had hirsutine convulsions in about two hours before I had to depart and they worked for some time, then I was sent to the hospital and there I had to call the doctor and they worked for four weeks. Then my husband hospitalized with me for a little between the two weeks and they have several attacks of convulsions. A little over a week ago I was taken with convulsions, at once time, a lady friend told me of Dr. Kline's Epileptic Remedy. I was anxious to see Dr. Kline and I got one bottle and it and it made me feel it, it did, and at the present time I am not sure how I will help anybody that has that kind of trouble. I hope they will take your Epileptic Remedy, as I believe it will help me. You're very truly.
