RUSSLYS GREAT NEGROES! Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—Kindly do not refuse me a little space in your valuable paper. I would just like to be you know a few things about prominent men of color in Russia. There was a colored man who played an important part in Russia's history. His name was Ibrahim Hannibal, generally known as "le Negre du Czar." When a child, this Negro was taken by an English admiral in Africa and then later this admiral came to Russia. He gave the little boy as a present to Czar Peter the Great. That happened about the year 1705. Czar Peter took a liking to the child and had him baptized, giving him the name Ibrahim Hannibal, he himself being the godfather. The bigger the lad grew, the more Peter like him for his intelligence and brightness. When Ibrahim attained the age of 18, Peter the Great sent him to France to complete his education. Upon his return to Russia, the friendship between the Czar and Ibrahim grew closer, and Peter never undertook anything, unless he had discussed it with Ibrahim. Thus, this African was one of the chief advisers of the great Russian Czar. Subsequently Irahim married a Russian noble-hady, and his great grandchild was another famous man of color, j. e. the octooron, Alexander Pushkin, Russia's greatest poet and writer. Alexander Pushkin's mother was an octooron of exceptional beauty and a big society lady. As her social engagements gave her little time for her children, she put Alexander into a boarding school, where she rarely visited him. It is in this school that Pushkin began to write his first poems which showed already a remarkable talent: Push- HILLSBORO.—Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Locust and daughter have returned to Cleveland after a visit with relatives here.—Mr. Charles Minor visited in Cincinnati.

HOW ABOUT IT, ATTY, BELL? Leavenworth, Kas., Sept. 27, 1921. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor Gazette, Cleveland, Ohio. Honorable Sir:—We, the former members of the 24th U. S. Infantry that were tried and convicted for alleged participation in the riot at Houston, Tex., Aug. 23, 1921, hereby appeal to the donors to the fund for our defense, held by Attorney T. W. Bell of Leavenworth, Kas. We understand that Mr. Bell is still collecting funds in our behalf but up to date has failed to make any report of the same. He has not notified us as to the progress of our case but the newspapers say that the case is to be tried before the Court of Appeals in September. Since we have been patiently waiting for Mr. Bell to secure results for four years, we think it no more than proper that our faithful friends should investigate Mr. Bell. Trusting that you will use your powerful influence in our behalf. Yours respectfully, JAS. COKER, Box No. 7. P. S.—Accept our greatest thanks for The Gazette. National Meetings of All Kinds Time to "Put on the Brakes." Says One of Our Editors. During the month of August there were quite a number of national meetings among our group. The Woodmen met in Denver, Colo., the Knights of Pythias in Topka, Kans., the Elks in Boston, Mass., the Negro Women's Republican League met in Kansas City, Mo. The Universal Negro Improvement Association met in New York. The National Negro Business League met in Atlanta, Ga., and there were two meetings of the National Baptist Conventions, one in Chicago and one in New Orleans, last month. In addition to all of these national meetings there have been state annual meetings of various types and kinds. The Tribune takes the position that this annual meeting business has become a menace to the economic and social welfare of the race. The main feature of the majority of these annual meetings is the election of officers. Politics, graft and chancery run rampant in many instances and the persons or groups of persons that can assemble and jiggle the voters the slickest get the offices. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are being literally thrown to the winds in sending delegates to the various national and state meetings. Four delegates from this city to Denver spent $500 in railroad fares and billions. Thousands of people flocked to Chicago and New Orleans, last month, to attend the National Baptist Conventions. $500,000 was spent on these two meetings. What return is the Race getting from this annual drain on its purpose that is any way commensurate with this enormous outlay? More than $3,000,000 have been spent by our group this summer on "annual meetings" while the Race suffers from economic weakness that is alarming. The colored people's condition in this country is dependent far more upon an organized economic program than upon these annual meetings of fraternal and social organizations. Let's be practical. These lodges will spend thousands of dollars in sending delegates to an annual meeting to elect some man as grand-this and grand-that, yet often fail to pay some poor member at home the small sum of $3.00 for a week's illness and hem and haw over paying $75 to a poor widow at the death of her husband who had been a member for 20 years and then require from sixty to ninety days to settle the claim. Take the $3,000,000 spent this summer on these "annual" affairs and how far would that amount go in establishing a chain of stores in building homes; in operating factories? This amount of money could be divided between six cities giving $200,000 to each of them. Allowing $20,000 for capital of one business, this would give 25 new business establishments in each of the six cities; or 150 new places of business with $20,000 for each establishment. If the three million dollars were divided into twelve parts of $250,000; and that would give each of 12 cities 25 new places of business with a capital of $10,000. Twelve cities with 25 new businesses enterprise would give the new business nearly 11 millions on the United States with the capital. Which would help to secure our companies and both, amenable to the needs of the public, of the new market, of the new business, of the social well-being, of the contribution of the general to the resilience of the community in the of these opportunities.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS And Make Himself President—The Effort Fails—"Star" and "Tom" Must Go—Splendid Meetings Being Held in Ward 11. For more than a week the leading stockholders of the Tate Baseball Co. have been more or less agitated over the rumor of an attempt upon the part of "Starlight" Boyd and his immediate followers to get control of the company and elect "Star" president of it. Of course such an act would practically ruin the bright prospects, next year, of the club, but that fact seemed to have no place in "Star" mind or those who were willing to foist such an incumbent on the Tate Baseball Co. In some (not the regular) way, they forced a meeting of company. Wednesday evening, in the offices of the Starlight Realty & Investment Co. in Central Ave., offering as an excuse the immediate need of funds by the Tate Baseball Co. Although a satisfactory financial report was made and one from an expert accountant provided for, "Star's" followers stated that the funds needed by the company would be forthcoming immediately, if a change in the presidency were made. That meant—depose popular and well liked Geo. J. Tate from the presidency and elect "Starlight." And Tate, the father of the club and company, the largest individual stockholder and the company's hardest and most worker! Cappy Lord! have mercy! When "Capple," secretary of the Douglass club, made the statement that the company's funds audited by their auditor (whoever that may be) and this, too, was voted down. Again, "Star bit the dust." This ought to serve to open the eyes of some, who still seem unable to see what "Starlight's" political control in Ward 11, and over our people of the entire city, given to him by Mayors Davis, FitzGerald and Chairman Mashek is slowly but surely leading no to. With the assistance of Councilman Fleming, his first lieutenant, he would dominate! Isn't it time to can him! Isn't it time to emancipate all the people of Ward 11 and the people of the entire city from political leadership of "Starlight" God who now seeks to head our organization as well? What YOU say, Mrs. Mrs. or Miss Reader? A reading mass meeting of our Council of Warriors was held, Tuesday county, in Jackson's hall for the Poor, Harry C. Smith, who some weeks ago was enforced by the Council as its candidate for the City Council from ward 11. Mr. Smith was the principal speaker of course. He was enforced with a heavy co- mission of punishment and a fine. He was punished through custody in Word II. He will have the court good and demand custody office.

We are that they have a grievance against it. The trade unions seem to be drifting into a chronic state of hostility to any government, while the arrogance of the union leaders is becoming insupportable. I undoubtedly the first statement made in this quotation is broader than the author intended it to be, and this is indicated by the statement in the last sentence. It is impossible to a citizen of the United States that conditions in England or elsewhere could be such as to justify the assertion that labor is disliked. In this country we have witnessed a manifestation of arrogance on the part of labor union leaders, but this has not caused resentment against labor in general. However much we may have been displeased with the action of a few labor union leaders, we have not permitted that feeling to create antipathy toward labor in general. Union labor constitutes but a small proportion of the total labor of the country and the radical union leaders are but a small part of the total union membership. On various occasions union members have been led into indiscretions by their officials and to some extent this may have provoked anger of a more or less indiscriminate nature against workingmen. But the American people are not hasty in forming final IN UNION IS STRONGER E COPY FIVE CENTS gain!

The ladies reviewed their pledge of unstinted support of Mr. Smith's candidacy and expressed the greatest confidence that their candidate would "go over the top." Councilman James R. Hinchliffe, a candidate for mayor, followed Mr. Smith and pledged his aid to him in cleaning up the ward if he, too, were elected. Mr. Hinchliffe also stressed the heavy debt, weighing taxpayers down as a result of the unbusinesslike methods of recent administrations, and said that the city was paying $16,500 per day interest on the same. He proposes to place the administration on a business basis, and clean up crime in the city as well as its debts. Mr. Hinchliffe was also splendidly received. Rev. H. C. Bailey made a masterly speech. He welcomed the ladies into politics and felt that they would play a refining part, but warned them to avoid falling into any of the ruts the men have been in and to "play clean politics." Dr. Bailey threw several sidelights on political and racial history made by the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, and told the ladies they had made no mistake in their choice of a candidate. He also gave several instances of the working methods of their political opponents and warned them as to what to expect. Great applause was tendered Dr. Bailey. After the speeches, the members held a regular business meeting and adjourned to meet, next week. The dinner and reception in the banquet hall of Hotel Cleveland, last week Thursday evening, tendered James R. Hinchliffe, Republican candidate for mayor, by his friends, was a complete success. Between 150 and 200 guests were gathered at the tables. The editor of The Gazette, one of the principal speakers of the evening, was seated at the right of Mr. Hinchcliffe and next to Mrs. Hinchliffe, at the speaker's table, and was the second person to address that splendid gathering of leading citizens, men and women of Cleveland. Mrs. Alvord F. Bishop, president of a local Federation of Women's clubs, an exceptionally able woman, presided, and made a fine opening speech. There were other speakers, including Mrs. Fannie Harris, president of our Council of Women. From the Hotel Cleveland, the editor went to the Y. M.-C. U. building, E. 55th St., where he addressed the Central Body, an organization which represents 24 churches and other organizations in Ward 11 opposed to the candidacy for the re-election of Councilman Thomas W. Fleming. Next Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, Ibn, Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, will speak at Lane Metropolitan C. M. E. church, Dr. L. H. Brown, pastor, c.

On further reflection they realize that intimidation of Congress, slacking, on war construction work and adoption of working rules that hamper production, were not planned nor accomplished by the workingmen themselves but by their radical leaders. Only to the extent that labor persists in evils of this kind will there be resentment against any others, than the leaders. Our Welfare Association, working in conjunction with the U. S.

He is deservedly popular, and local pride in his success, thus far, assures a crowd at his concert on Tuesday evening, Oct. 18 at Lane Metropolitan church, E. 46th St. and Cedar Ave., that will pack the large auditorium of the church to the doors. Mr. Jones comes home to Cleveland direct from a very successful concert tour of British Columbia and will leave Cleveland, later in the month, to enter the Conservatory of Music in Paris, France, where he will pursue a postgraduate course. Mr. William Lawrence, pianist and accompanist, of Boston, most favorably known in this city, will assist Mr. Jones at the concert, Tuesday evening, Oct. 18. Let us all be there—who are able to get into the church. BURSUM TOOK 20 OUT OF 29. The victory of Senator H. O. Bursum, of New Mexico is answer sufficient to those who insisted that the Republican party had grown out of favor, after six months of control. Bursum won by between eight and nine thousand and the indications are that the State, which for some time has been debatable ground, politically, can be depended upon to cast a Republican vote so long as the party keeps up its present record of accomplishment. In the election of Bursum the women of New Mexico played a conspicuous part, and due credit should be given to Mrs. A. B. Stroup and Mrs. O'Bryan of that State, the latter addressing her audiences in Spanish in those localities where that was the dominant tongue. Outsiders who helped in the cause were: Miss Adelaide Thurston, of Duluth, Minn.; Miss Betsy Edwards, of Shelbyville, Ind.; Mrs. Frank Dodson, of Des Moines, Iowa, and Mrs. D. McCarter, of Topeka, Kansas. The Hanna Democrats also summoned outside aid. Mr. William Gibbs McAdoo was one of the political sharps who played Cassius to Mr. Hanna, but was unable to save him from the sinking. Of the 29 counties comprising the State, Bursum carried no less than 20. It was a noble victory and one calculated to put heart in the Republican party and to strengthen its adherence to its policy of constructivism. If it is meet that an American should be elected to the international court of justice of the league of nations, John Bassett Moore is probably about as safe a man, from the national view-point of the vast majority of Americans, as could be selected. Moore is the author of the "Digest of International Law" and of "International Arbitrations," about a dozen large volumes embracing the history of the international relations of the United States up to about 1900. He has written a large number of treatises on the subject of international law and has shown marked ability as an advisor to the State Department. When Bryan proceeded to make a monkey-house of that department Moore resigned in disgust. He is a Republican and not a silly visionary who listens to voices in the air. In his "Principles of American Diplomacy," speaking of proposals for the formation of leagues or alliances to end war, he says: "The plans and proposals put forward since 1914, like those published from time to time in previous years, present, so far as concerns their central thought, nothing to surprise the student of such subjects. The assurance of peace by means of a concert of nations, designed to moderate or control the propensity of men in the mass to gain their ends by violence has stimulated the speculation of philosophers and baffled the skill of statesmen since the dawn of international relations. The general statement of such a design offers no difficulties; but the definite formulation of a plan to render the design effective would involve, no less than heretofore, the consideration of questions both numerous and varied concerning which it would be as unsafe to count upon a ready unanimity of sentiment and of opinion as to presuppose the sudden cessation of the human wants and human passions in which wars have immemorally originated." Moore's new job may be compared to that of honorary pall-bearer to a defunct political boss. He will not get his white gloves soiled, but he may render valuable assistance in directing the cortege where to head in. FRANKLIN'S THRIFT. One Reason For His Success Was His Keen Appreciation of Value of Time. Benjamin Franklin, philosopher, statesman, scientist, journalist and publisher, had a keen appreciation of the value of time. That doubtless is one important reason why he succeeded in making his life so fruitable. "Dost thou love life?" he wrote. "Then do not squander time, for it is the sun life is made of." At another time he remarked: "If time be of all things the most precious, wasting time must be the greatest prodigality." And again: "Lost time is never found again; and what we call time enough always proves little enough." Franklin not only ordered his life so as to make the best possible use of his time but he sought to prevent others from needlessly taking up time that he needed for work. One day, it is related, a man entered the little book store which he kept in Philadelphia. When the clerk named the price of a certain book that the customer wanted he called for the proprietor. The clerk explained that Franklin was very busy in the press room but the man insisted on seeing him. The clerk called the "boss," who hurried from the publishing room back of the store. The customer inquired of him the lowest price on the book in which he was interested. "A dollar and a quarter," replied Franklin. "A dollar and a quarter," exclaimed the customer. "Why your clerk just now offered it to me for a dollar." "True, and I could have better afforded to take a dollar than to leave my work." "Well, come now," said the man, who seemed to think that Franklin was joking, "tell me your lowest price for the book." "One dollar and a half." "A dollar and a half! Why you just offered it for a dollar and a quarter." "Yes, and I could better have taken that price than a dollar and a half now." The leisurely customer began to see the point. Without taking up more of Franklin's valuable time, he handed over a dollar and a half, took the book and left the store, duly impressed with the fact that he had been fooling away his own time and wasting Franklin's. Money Put Into Circulation. Money is put into circulation when it is used to meet any Government expenses, including payment for bullion from which the coin is made. Payments of salaries and financing various Government enterprises are means of putting newly issued coin or currency into circulation. FACTS People who Advertise Can sell Goods. People who sell Goods Can make Money. People who make Money can advertise goods. The Best Advertising Medium is "The Old Reliable" GAZETTE. REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING People go where they are invited —A. T. Stewart. Advertising is as necessary an exp- penditure as the payment of taxes or rent—W. Atlee Burpee. Consult and persistent advertising is a sure prelude to wealth—Stephen Girard. Nothing except the mint can make money without advertising.—W. E. Gladstone. Printer's ink will make more of the public wear a pathway to your store. See? While it is true that occasional ad- vertising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, persis- tent advertising will keep business growing during "dull days." The merchant who considers riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in January. DO YOU advertise? The merchant who never advertises under any circumstance or condition may imagine he is wise, but his competitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It's a good time to "get awake." THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, OCTOBER 8, 1921. SHARE HOUSES WITH CATTLE Scottish Islanders Lack Practically All Comforts of Civilization. NO CHIMNEYS OR WINDOWS Yet Inhabitants Are People of High Character and Have Simply Made Out the Best Way Under the Circumstances. On the Scottish Isles known as the Hebrides are thousands of so-called "black houses," having neither chimney nor window, a single door serving for ingress and egress, to admit light and air and to get rid of smoke. In a recent report on the physical welfare of mothers and children in Scotland, made for the Carnegie United Kingdom Trust, Dr. W. Leslie Mackenzie tells how these dwellings are the outgrowth of needs closely related to the welfare of the primitive communities in which they are found. A reviewer, writing in "Nature" calls this report "a very important human document," disclosing a "firm scientific grip and fresh insight." Of the "black houses" and Dr. Mackenzie's explanation of them he says: "They are without chimneys; the peat fire is kept burning day and night, and is, in spite of the smoke, the savior of the household; the straw roof does not keep out the rain, and thus almost necessitates 'box-beds'; there is often more than propinquity of the cows and their manure. The 'black houses' are, of course, deplorable and deteriorative; but that is not their scientific description. The fact is that, in point after point, these 'black houses' are like organisms built up under difficult conditions, meagerly perhaps, but with remarkable adaptiveness. The stones are from the moor; timber is from the sea; lime mortar is expensive; the roof must be mounted each year; and therefore, the walls must be low; moreover, the gales are high. 'At every point the house is adapted to its fundamental purposes,' and what the doctrinaire student or the careless visitor dismisses as unworthy of savages, the product of laziness of perversity turns out to be a product of long labor and sacrifice', a fundamental part of the only system of agriculture formerly found possible in this island of gneiss rock clay and peat moss.' It is part of the price that a people of immense ability and high character have to pay for their civilization.' "The unsympathetic critic, who does not dwell with the people as one must dwell with all sorts and conditions of living creatures if one is to understand them, does not discover that the peat smoke is tolerated and even encouraged day and night throughout all the winter in order that the straw may be saturated to form a manure which keeps the croft lands effective. The reasons for the so-called 'cattle-housing' are similarly interpretable in terms of intelligible purpose. Not that the medical member of the local government board for Scotland is advocating the encouragement of 'blackhouses' and 'cattle-housing'. But if he protests that we shall do well to pay even the jetsam of the past the compliment of understanding it, or heaven help our future. "Amid an embarrassing multitude of details, the reader is never allowed to lose sight of the big, underlying problem—the influence of nurture, environmental, nutritional, and functional, on the organism, whether adult and reproductive, or in process of early development. The author is neither optimist nor pessimist; he believes things can be bettered; he shows us what a multitude of salutary provisions are at present in operation; he indicates how development along all lines of education, research and institutions may wipe away a reproach to our civilization—Literary Digest. THE SPEED OF ANIMALS. The Lion Probably Fleetest of All Animals; Deer Next. The hare is able to travel at the rate of 60 feet per second. The plodding tortoise can't do much better than half an inch in the same time. Yet, according to the well-known fable, it beat the fleet-footed hare in a race because it kept plugging away while the hare stopped along the way while the hare stopped along the way to play and to nibble tempting bits of herbage. A good race horse can cover about 45 feet a second. His speed at a leisurely trot is about 11 feet a second. The lion is probably the fleetest of all animals, being capable of from 80 to 100 feet a second. A deer running for its life goes at the rate of about 75 feet a second. The elephant at his ordinary pace goes about five feet a second. Running at top speed he can make something like 18 feet a second. The ox drawing a heavy load, moves at the rate of about two feet a second. The best speed of the giraffe is about 50 feet a second. japanese Women Smoke. Smoking is very common in Japan among both men and women. Girls begin at about 10 years of age. But the smoking is primarily ceremonial—the girls' pipes being very small. Woman Keeps Secret! They say that 12 years is a long time for any woman to keep a secret; but it can be done, as proved by Mrs. Adam Carl of Chambersburg, Pa. who married 12 years ago and has since lived in her own home under her maiden name. Mrs. Carl is now going to keep house for her husband. PRIME SPORT NEWS By Allen Harrison Dorsey. New York City.—Anouncement was made, last week, that negotiations are progressing favorably for a match in Montreal between Jack Johnson and Emilie Montois. The champion has always been popular in the Canadian metropolis and it is believed the bout would draw a big house. Johnson was at the Star and Garter burlesque theatre in Brooklyn, last week, and his "drawdown" was said to be close to $2,000 for the week. Bucks Win Last Detroit, Mich. — The Columbus Buckeyes ended their 1921 season by tabbing a double victory over the Detroit Stars, Sunday, at Mack park. In the last two weeks the Ohioans have defeated several of the leading clubs of the league and the Briscoe Sunday night. The Buckeyes packed their uniforms and left for their homes. Tates Trim Hoosiers Branham and Cannady, pitching standbys of the Tate Stars, were in fine form at Tate field, Sunday, and the locals won both games from the Indianapolis A. B. R. C.'s, Scores, 5 to 4 and 5 to 3. Perry's single in the ninth inning of the first game, after Jeffries had purposely passed Brown, scored Johnston with the winning run. Kenyon, of the A.'s. IS IT OF ANY USE TO CON-TEND FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimination, and are winning even social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say, "Negroes are not worthy of rights; they are by nature without self-respect and have no 'guts.'" The world respects only those who resent and resist prescriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however laceous our race may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt. — Boston (Mass.) Guardian. PROTEST AGAINST WRONG. To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on Protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many. —Ella Wheeler Wilcox. "Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty as we understand it."—Abraham Lincoln. QUEER KINDS OF FOOD. Different People Have Different Notions About Their Articles of Diet. In China the brains of rats are esteemed as a great delicacy. Added eggs—or rather eggs that have been "ripened" like cheese—also are eaten, along with such queer food as sharks' fins and tails, marine slugs, bats and silkworms. The Japanese are fond of raw foods, including potatoes, seaweeds and fish. Frequently fish are brought to the table while still alive and are cut up and eaten without cooking at all. To serve fish hot is considered poor taste. Among the savage tribes of Africa ants, caterpillars, locusts and locusts, usually raw, are favorite foods. Some of the native Filipinos are also fond of locusts. Another queer article of their menus is a kind of water beetle. Native Australian tibes eat snakes, worms, butterflies, snails, maggots, mice and rats, as well as the flesh of the kangaroo, the bandicoot and kangaroo rat. Some of the South Sea islanders think there is nothing equal to pure soup. As is well known, the American Indians often ate dog's flesh and this is still on the bill of fare of some of the wilder tribes. In the cold arctic regions the raw flesh and blubber of seals, whales, walruses and polar bears make up the bulk of the natives' diet. Such food when digested and oxidized produces a great deal of heat which of course is needed in those fried lands. Clay and other earthy materials are eaten with gusto by some of the wild natives of South America, New Guinea and the Malayan archipelago. Dirt-eaters are also found among more civilized peoples but this habit usually is more the result of a peculiar kind of disease than of any natural liking or appetite for such unnurtious and often unwholesome "food." Some of the Malays eat tiger flesh, believing that by so doing they will acquire some of the strength of that animal. In China the flesh of black dogs is sold as a cure for consumption. pitched good ball in the second tilt, but the locals got to him when hits meant runs. "Hooks" Johnson put the game on ice for the Tates in the fifth with a drive against the right-field wall, scoring two runs. Perry and Johnson's hitting featured the foyer getting into the eight holes the latter clouted two triples and a double. A crowd of 3,000 saw the games. **Lincoln's Break Even.** New York City—The Lincoln Giants, with "Cyclone Joe" Williams in the box, had it all over the Cuban Stars, Sunday, and the Harlem boys won his first game, 9 to 0 in the second hit for Bacone and the best of the breaks, opposed to "Dicta" Johnson, and the Cubans, by timely hitting, won, 8 to 5. ST. LOUIS, Mo.—The St. Louis Cardinals were lucky to nose out the St. St. Louis Giants, in an eleven-inning game, at Sportman park, Monday. Score, 5 to 4. The Cards scored the winning run as the result of an error. Lavan reached first on a boot, was sacrificed to second and scored on Portie's single. Drake went all the way for our lads but Dixie Walker was driven from the mound in the ninth. Blackwell and Kennard of the Giants pounded out four hits apiece.

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. We must learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement. If we do not learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement, we may be very sure that in their own interest as well as worked by others for their own advancement and not ours—George W. Blount. It is a privilege to fearlessly stand for the right—Not a sacrifice, even though you go down. They count not the cost, who fight the good fight, And unflinchingly face the sneer or the frown.

Taylor's piano solo, Mr. Leo Mason's and Atty. A. C. Carlton's addresses. Is there any doubt NOW in the mind of anyone as to what race paper has the largest circulation and the largest following among our people in Cleveland and the state of Ohio? "The Old Reliable" Gazette has led for thirty-nine years and will continue to do so. Charles Satchell Morris, Jr., of Norfolk, Va., called the "boy orator," spoke to crowded houses, Sunday afternoon, at St. John's A. M. E. church; in the evening at Shiloh, and Monday evening at Triedstone Baptist church. He was the guest of Dr. Leroy N. Bundy. Bishop E. Thomas Demby, of Little Rock, Ark., was in the city, last week Thursday, enroute to points in western New York. He called on the Gazette.

CHARACTER. Character, like a fine old tree, matures slowly and is a riper growth than success that is forced as hothouse products are forced. Character in a newspaper develops through years of service to the people. For thirty-eight years The Gazette has been serving our people of this country. It has gathered a reader clientele whose tastes it reflects, and whose power and responsiveness to buy are direct measures of its present importance to every advertiser. EDITOR. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, OCTOBER 8, 1921 DANDY COIN TRICK. Secret Lies in the Sewing Together Often, the Worrisome Of Two Handkerchiefs. If you enjoy performing tricks of "magic" and fooling your friends try this simple stunt. Borrow a handkerchief from someone and spread it over the mouth of an ordinary glass tumbler. Then draw from your pocket a common red bandana handkerchief, hold it up so everyone can see it and then turn the other side toward them to convince everybody that it has not been "doctored"—it really must be but you can allay all suspicion on this score without giving the secret away. Now ask someone to give you a penny or other coin, making sure that it is similar to the coin you have contrived to slip into the tumbler in placing the borrowed handkerchief over it. Spread the bandana out, fold the then, grasping them, lift it up and you will have kind of a bag. Place the borrowed coin in this, strike it against a table or chair and let someone feel it to demonstrate that the coin is really inside. Holding the handkerchief in one hand, make several mystic passes over it with the other and then open it. The coin will have "vanished." Now raise the borrowed handkerchief from the tumbler and display the coin inside the latter. If you work skillfully, no-one will be able to guess how this trick is performed. The secret lies in the bandana handkerchief. It is really two handkerchiefs of identical pattern sewed together all around the edges, only a slit about two inches long being left open at one corner. When you make it into a bag and drop the coin in you slip it into this slit and of course it goes between the two handkerchiefs. It will clink when you strike it against the table and it may readily be felt through the cloth but obviously it will be out of sight so long as the performer wishes. Some practice is necessary to make this trick wholly successful. To avoid detection never allow anyone to examine the coins or the handkerchief too minutely at any time.

From the Political Domination of "Star and Tom" The Real Issue in the Ward 11 Contest—The FitzGerald-Maschke Machine or Organization Must Be Beaten—The People' Candidate. The Central Body, composed of representatives from 24 churches and other organizations in Ward 11, opposed to the Fleming candidacy for re-election to the city council, met last week Tuesday evening, as usual, at the Y. M. C. U. Bldg., in E. 55th St. After regular business, P.E. R. Brown introduced the Ward Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, whom the Central Body had for several weeks urged to stand as candidate for the council in ward 11. In introducing him, Pres. Brown impressed upon Mr. Smith the fact that the people of the ward demanded that he stand as their candidate and were "drafting" him because they realized that a man of his record for honesty, unquestioned integrity, aggressiveness and knowledge of political organization would prove seriously lead them to overwhelming victory in the memorial. Mr. Smith was greeted with great and prolonged praise. He thanked the organization for the honor it had carried upon him and said that he had no personal desire to be councilman and that he would prefer to help any other candidate that the organization would endorse. A storm of "no.s." greeted this statement. Thereupon Mr. Smith said he would not ignore the call and will of the people and announced that he would stand as a candidate as requested and help in the movement to emancipate the ward from the political domination and control of "Starlight" and his lieutenant, "Tom" (Tom Cramlien Fleming). Mr. Smith briefly outlined what the people in the ward demanded and what he stood for, and called attention to the fact that students in the ward were determined to be emancipated from the political rule of "Star and Tom" and also to improve living conditions, particularly "physical" and moral, in the ward. This he felt all residents of ward 11 earnestly desired and that the desire could not be satisfied by securing jobs for the few or the many. Deacon Fisher opened the meeting at Shiloh Baptist church, Sunday afternoon and the Hon. Harry C. Smith was the principal speaker. Mr. Smith spoke for one hour to an audience which filled the church and was most enthusiastically received, as usual. Other candidates had been invited to speak without his knowledge or those in immediate charge of the meeting, it seems. They were Candidates Hinchlife and Haserordt. Messrs. J. L. Jones and E. R. Brown also spoke briefly. A regular meeting of the Woman's Council, which has endorsed the Hon. Harry C. Smith's candidacy for the council in ward 11, was held, Tuesday evening. Mr. Gary, a former candidate for councilman of ward 11, announced that he had withdrawn from the race, in favor of Mr. Smith's candidacy and now was a stanch supporter of it. Several women hissed this announcement and Mrs. Harris in a few well chosen words told the women that this conduct would not be tolerated in any of the meetings of the Women's Council. Later three ladies who sat in vicinity of the hisses were followed out of the hall by "Starlight" Boyd. Prof. Hatton, the parent of the proposed city manager plan, was the principal speaker. He dwelt particularly on the points of special interest to our group and said that personal of our representative people had been called into conference as to the needs of our people in forming the plan. He deplored the fact that we as a race had not been represented in city council by our highest type of manhood, and felt that a plan which did away with the Maskeh-FitzGerald machine would materially aid the community in electing men who would properly represent us and that we could be proud of. After state senator, answerer Prof. Hatton and claimed that he believed we could clean out the city under the present plan and defeated the Maskeh-FitzGerald machine and it's supporters like Councilman Fleming. Tom's "Toomerville Trouble." the mayor of the "high-sounding" talk against the Ku Klux's organizing a klan here, the tv council, especial council, Damm, Staceel and Finkle. he had to force the against the infamous organization. Mayor FitzGerald had done nothing in the past two or three weeks but TALK and apparently had no intention of doing more. But the council "forced his hand." Monday evening, with the result that the people of Cleveland are at last getting a little action, but not from the mayor. The three councilmen named introduced two resolutions and one ordinance. Monday evening, calling for ACTION. What did Councilman Tom Fleming DO? Nothing! as usual; only "made a few remarks," said the daily papers. Like Mayor FitzGerald he apparently does not believe in ACTION. And yet he should have been foremost in the effort to get action. Why wasn't he? And has this lack of action been the rule with Tom ever since he has been a member of the council? And come before people of ward 11 to ask questions, asking for votes and showing a list of persons of color given jobs by the "machine" or organization, and claiming credit for the appointments; and referring to some ordinance or ordinances that would have been enacted by the council at the request of the "machine" whether he was present in that body or not. Have you ever heard of his making a fight with the "machine" or organization, or in the council or any where else for anything or anybody, especially for one of our race? For two or three weeks, six councilmen from the west side of the city have been busy making the fight of their lives against the nuisance, the one-man street car like that being operated thru E. 30th St., almost in the center of ward 11. They call it the "Toonerville Trolley," and it sure is one if ever there was one anywhere. Has anyone ever heard a word of protest from Tom, (Councilman Fleming); has he joined with those six live-wire councilmen from the west side who are fighting for decent street-car service for their constituents; does he show any more interest in that matter than he did in the cases of a number of our men who have been "beaten up." in ward 11 and who appealed to him for assistance in an effort to secure redress only to be refused? NO! The K. K. K. in Cleveland. Organized labor and ex-service men in Cleveland joined Thursday in a united campaign against the Ku Klux Klan. Organizers for the Klan here, which has headquarters on the third floor of the Perry-Payne Building, say that over 4,000 Clvelanders are members of the local branch. C. A. Totten, an organizer, says that the Klan is growing rapidly and that its activities are state-wide. He refused to say how many are being added to the membership. Totten said 500 Clvelanders were initiated into the Klan at a midnight ceremony about two and a half months ago, at a farmland spot near Cleveland, when the mystic rites were presided over in the mask and robe by an impaled wizard" brought here from the south. Another initiation is planned for the middle of the winter, Totten said. Included among the first batch of Clevelanders, who, Totten says, were initiated, a number of prominent business men, lawyers, doctors and pastors. An "imperial wizard" from Atlanta, the main "domain" of the "Invisible Empire" of the Ku Klux Klan, is scheduled to be in Cleveland some time next week, according to advises received here. One hundred new members were added to the Walnut Hills (Cincinnati) branch of the Klan. Tuesday night. They were initiated at a secret midnight ceremony outside the city. All passing autumn residents of the city and Columbus branches are being organized. A branch with 300 members is being organized at Toledo. None is being organized yet in Akron, according to reports. UNDER FIRE. The Ku Klux Klan is the best advertised new secret order America has ever seen. If more publicity—leaving out of account its nature, whether favorable or unfavorable—is what its organizers want, their wishes are filled to overflowing. No one need be in ignorance of the organization or fail to grasp its significance. Under direction of Attorney General Daugherty, agents of the department of justice are delving into the activities and dangerous possibilities of the klan, state and local officials are no less interested, and steps are under way to bring decisive action if these investigations disclose how the state, federal, state or local law, The "imperial magistral," high moral and directing genius of the organization, may be summoned to Washington for appearance before the department. The chief of the secret service is told by Daugherty to keep on the trail. The klan is on the defensive. The storm of hostility aroused in recent weeks is raised by the organization's own methods. It cannot claim persecution. There is a natural popular antipathy to secrecy in such matters, a natural suspicion that if the klan were as sincere in purpose and as pure in motive as its members claim, it would not choose to pose in full blow against the law. Its work mysteriously in the dead of night. More important still, it would not have chosen a name so thoroughly outlawed by public indignation as that of the Ku Klux Klan. There is ample room for organizations devoted to 100 per cent. Americanism; we cannot have too many of them. But a 100 per cent. American needs no ghoulish uniform, no horrific oaths, no appeals to religious or racial prejudice to keep his patriotism militant. If the klan is all its leaders claim for it, they should welcome the spotlight official when named out to by government officials. They should compose in every possible way to have the purposes of the organization made public. In this direction lies vindication. And vindication the Klu Klux Klan seems just now to need above everything else—Cleveland Plain Dealer (editorial). THE MAN WHO DARES. "I honor the man who in the conscious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends."—Charles Sumner. THE CAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, OCTOBER 8, 1921 AMBROSE PARE, BARBER-SURGEON First of His Profession To Depart From Barbarous and Ancient Methods. AUTHOR OF 28 BOOKS Before His Time, Wounded French Soldiers Suffered More From Their Surgeons Than From Their Enemies—Born in 1509. Ambrose Pare, the great French surgeon, is a splendid example of a man of close observation, patient application, and indefatigable perseverance. He was the son of a barber at Laval, in Mayenne, where he was born in 1509. His parents were too poor to send him to school, but they placed him as footboy with the cure of the village, hoping that under that learned man, he might pick up an education for himself. The cure, however, kept him so busily engaged in grooming his mule and in other menial offices that the boy found no time for learning. While in his service it happened that the celebrated lithotomist, Cotot, came to Laval to operate on one of the cure's ecclesiastical brether. Pare was present at the operation and he was so much interested in it that he is said to have from that time formed the determination of devoting himself to the art of surgery. Leaving the cure's household service, Pare apprenticed himself to a barber's surgeon, named Vialot, under whom he learned to let blood, draw teeth and perform the minor operations. After four years' experience of this kind, he went to Paris to study at the school of anatomy and surgery, meanwhile maintaining himself by his trade of barber. Pare afterward succeeded in obtaining an appointment as assistant to the Hotel Dlen, where his conduct was so exemplary, and his progress so marked, that the chief surgeon, Coupli, entrusted him with the charge of the patients whom he could not himself attend to. After the usual course of instruction, Pare was admitted a master-barber surgeon and shortly after was appointed to a charge with the French army, under Montmorenci, in Pledmont. Pare was not a man to follow in the ordinary ruts of his profession, but brought the resources of an ardent and original mind to bear upon him finally, relation of diseases and their remedies. Before his time the wounded suffered much more at the hands of their surgeons than they did at those of their enemies. To stop all bleeding from gun-shot wounds the barbarous expedient was resorted to of dressing them with boiling oil. Hemorrhage was stopped by searing the wound with a red-hot iron; and when amputation was necessary, it was performed with a red-hot knife. At first Pare treated wounds according to the approved methods, but fortunately, on one occasion running short of boiling oil, he substituted a mild and emollient application. He was in great fear all night lest he should have done wrong in adopting that treatment, but was greatly relieved next morning on finding his patients comparatively comfortable, while those whose wounds had been treated in the usual way, were writhing in torment. Such was the casual origin of one of Pare's greatest improvements in treatment of a gun-shot wound and he proceeded to adopt the emollient treatment in all future cases. Another still more important improvement was the employment of a ligature in tying arteries to stop hemorrhages. He met with the usual fate of inventors and reformers. His practice was denounced by the surgical brether as dangerous, unprofessional and empirical; and older surgeons banded themselves together to resist its adoption. They reproached him for his want of education, and they assaulted him with quotations from ancient writers, which he was unable either to verify or refute. But the best answer to Pare's assaultants was the success of his practice. The wounded soldiers called out everywhere for Pare, and he was always at their service. He would say, "I have dressed you, may God cure you." Urged by some of the learned among his contemporaries, he placed on record the results of his surgical experience in 28 books, which were published by him at different times. NEW THEATRE ECONOMY. Kentucky Theatre Checks Patrons' Cigligs While They View Show. Bardwell claims one on Paducah. That is the Bardwell picture show. There is only one there, but that one has one feature that is not seen in any theatre in Paducah. On the right of the entrance to the theatre is a check stand for cigars. As men go into the place, instead of littering up the front of the show with their cigar butts, they put them in little jars on the wall and take a check out showing the number of the jar. When the show is over the butts are lighted up again and a dime or a quarter is saved, and Mr. Milwain, owner of the theatre is saved the expense of hiring a Negro boy to sweep up the butts the following morning. — Paducah (Ky.)

Ohio's Anti-Lynching Law 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 Mobs Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282.

(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 occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for the family and education of the minor children of such person so killed, such injury occurred, such child such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of 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.

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 include it with the payment of the necessary feeding 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.

Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 162 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 accommodations, advantages, 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. Judge Grant's Opinion of the Law. Misled by the foolishly manufactured outcry for the passage of the Beaty bill, a few years ago, the Akron Beacon Journal published an editorial to which the editor of The Gazette replied, calling its attention to the fact that the Ohio Civil Rights law was good law and did not need amending, the letter from Jorge Grant, former presiding judge of the Court of Appeals of the Eighth District of Ohio, is self explanatory: Akron, O., April 25, 1919. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor The Gazette Cleveland, O. My Dear Sir: Observing your letter in the Beacon-Journal, of this city, I venture to send you, under a separate cover, the Ohio Law Reporter of Feb. 3, last, containing the opinion of the Court of Appeals in the Puritan Lunch Co. vs. Leonard H. Forman, decided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for $5000 had hundred dollars was obtained. If the BeaconJournal knew that what was grown in its own town, there would have been no occasion for criticism, editorially. THE LAW OF OHIO IS UNDER NO REPROACH, nor our courts and juries, in administering it. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed. Very truly yours, C. R. Grant. ADOPT A BUDGET SYSTEM. Almost As Important To Learn How To Spend Money As To Make It. It has been found that two families out of three who are classed as poor owe their conditions to bad habits of spending rather than actual lack of money, says Boys' Life. It is almost as important therefore that we learn how to spend money as to make it. It has been said that even the great World War would have been worth all it cost if it had only taught us as a nation how to be economical. A great educational movement is on foot to teach boys and girls even in the early grades of the schools how to spend money intelligently. One of the first steps is to learn to keep a budget of expenses, no matter how small they may seem. With such a foundation a boy or girl begins life with an excellent start in the right direction. The idea is to keep expenditures within your income, whatever it may be. Those who spend a little more than they receive will always be poor.
