In less than one hour in Judge U. S. Martin's common pleas court, Monday morning, Charles Minor colored, was convicted of first degree murder and sentenced to life in the Ohio State Penitentiary. But little testimony was taken by either side, the state represented by County Prosecutor H. E. Mau and Assistant Charles Folkarth and the defendant by R. R. Nevin and Thomas Norris. Following the taking of testimony, the court directed the verdict which carried with it a recommendation for morey, which saved Minor from a sentence to the electric chair. Following the verdict and sentence, the attorneys for Minor filed a formal motion for a new trial, which was overruled by the court. The crime for which Minor is convicted was committed last July 8, when he killed his wife, Blanche, at their home in a roaming house on Lakeview Avenue, near Germantown Street. The woman's throat was slashed with a razor and her head bent with a hammer. The husband was arrested a few hours later, on information given by his eight-year-old daughter, a witness to the attack. The trial Monday morning was necessary under the law requiring the taking of testimony in cases where a defendant decides to plead guilty to a first-degree indictment. THE DAYTON FORUM E. T. Banks to Speak The first of a series of religious meetings for men and boys, will be held at Euclid Ave. A. M. E. Church, Sunday afternoon at four o'clock. "Fighting Secretary" E. T. Banks will be the speaker of the afternoon. Mr. Banks is well known in Dayton as a public spirited man and a speaker of unquestioned ability. Mr. Banks was with the boys "over there," and made quite a reputation for himself as fighter, although he was sent over as a "Y" secretary. It is hoped that there will be a large crowd out to hear him. FREE ENTERTAINMENT AND SOCIAL FOR SOLDIERS On the night of May 9, in the auditorium of the Central Y. M. C. A. at Third and Ludlow streets, there will be a free show and entertainment for the delight and pleasure of all discharged soldiers and sailors, or in the city on furlough or pass from any camp whatsoever. Some of the best local talent in the city will appear on the program, which will be short and snappy, interesting and full of pep. All soldiers and sailors are requested to be present and bring company. This is the first of a series of good times which the "Y" has in store for the soldiers and sailors and their friends. U. S. MOTORLAUNCH PATROLLING THE RHINE INTERNATIONAL FILM SHOW AMERICAN DEMOCRACY! The following article was sent to The Dayton Journal by a citizen of Xenia. Editor of The Journal: Dear Sir—In his different works of fiction, probably no book of the immortal Dunbar portrays more truthfully the real condition of his race than the above entitled one, for it was in this that Dunbar, feeling keenly the handicaps confronting his race, recites a story that is really characteristic of American life with reference to dealing with the Negro race. How frequently is the race made the football and scapegoat of those who attain positions of influence and affluence through the betrayal of the Negro's confidence. Unscrupulous methods are always resorted to, to take an advantage of him and keep him in a state of servility. Charles Sumner, with prophetic vision, anticipated the conditions which now exist, and so framed the fourteenth amendment, which the South has with impunity practically nullified. While Phillips, Sumner, Stevens and many others in this country were contending for the Negro's freedom, Daniel O'Connell, the matchless Irish statesman, a member of the British parliament, contended uncompromisingly for his freedom and equal rights. The fourteenth amendment was framed and subsequently ratified by the states, for the exclusive purpose of lifting the Negro to the standard of citizenship, with equal rights and advantages. As a matter of fact, the great corporations of the country have been the beneficiaries, in that a corporation for certain purposes has the same rights as a person, and the corporations have resorted to its provisions as a shield, in an effort to safeguard their rights. The application and enforcement of this amendment has been almost exclusively confined to corporations. But the immortal Summer's idea was undoubtedly the protection of the Negro. The period of physical slavery has passed. The thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth amendments were paid for with the sacrifice of thousands on the battlefield. More than fifty years have passed and still we find the Negro, after having made unprecedented progress from an economic and educational standpoint, contending for his civil and political rights, and an equal chance in the battle of life. Has he not by his loyalty to the flag, and bravery and sacrifice upon the battlefields in the world's greatest war, won for himself the respect and admiration of the world? "Then in justice to him, I cannot see how we can withhold from him any right and privilege conceded by the constitution. If we do, then we deserve to pass from the arena of the nations of the world as the most un-Christian and ungrateful in the world. Unlike other races, the Negro remains faithful to his country despite his oppression. Rabbi Grössman, in a recent speech in behalf of Ireland, says: "Opression has its compensations. It habitualizes the oppressor as much as it humiliates the oppressed." Ex-Governor Hughes says: "America needed the war to get rid of class distinction of racial bigotry and sep- arateness, and to give us the new America with a better appreciation of our mutual dependence and of the worth of character, regardless of race, color, or sex, or fortune." "Respect for and love of country, and desire it necessary to give up one's life for it, arises out of the protection afforded the citizen by its constitution and flag. Can we consistently exact of the Negro these elements of true Americanism and continue to withhold from him his civil and political rights? The Wisconsin Bar Association, in taking action upon the address of Hon. Moorfield Story, before that distinguished body, says: "But we have today been told of things done in our midst to our fellow colored citizens that are no less barbaric than the heart-rending treatment of the little people of the world by their oppressors. We shall reap the whirlwind if we continue to sow the wind." The South had a great opportunity a few years ago to lift its people of all classes out of ignorance. This was through the provisions of the Blank educational bill, but it proved to be the same old case of "cutting off the nose to spite the face." On account of the large Negro population in many states, the South "feared" ultimate Negro domination, and rather than suffer this condition the bill was defeated. The South now realizes its mistake. It sees the faithful, loyal Negro labor, which has proven the bone and sinew of the South, drifting away, until the economic conditions are matters of great concern. South Carolina and Mississippi have more Negroes than whites, and several other states an equal number, yet the Negroes are wholly disfranchised as a result of "grandfather" clauses and "educational tests" in which many of the local boards cannot quality. The chairman of foreign affairs of France, in speaking before the recent Pan-African congress, emphasized the fact that the sentiment of France on equality and liberty, irrespective of color, was shown by the fact that she had six colored representatives in the French chamber. In our own country, with 12,000,000, we have not a single representative in our congress. This is certainly taxation without representation and amounts to a gross violation of the constitution and not in keeping with the spirit and intent of the Declaration of Independence. Can we longer endure without a most vigorous protest such conditions, in the face of the fact that this large proportion of our population have proved themselves by their loyalty, thrift, industry, educational economic advancement, eminently worthy of every consideration in the way of political and civil rights, and the fullest opportunity to rise in keeping with the true spirit of our constitution. Dunbar, with prophetic vision in his poem on the Afro-American, closes in these words: "With faith's long-seeing eye I look afar, Beyond this little space of gloom and doubt to where Hone's repellent star puts all the hopes responderate stars all the murky clouds of night to rout. Our unknown future holds no fear for me. For all the good we hope shall some day be." GEORGE W. R. CONNAD. Regarding the Confusion During the Blind Boone Recital at the Central Y. M. C. A. New light has been thrown on the alleged segregation at the Y. M. C. A. during the Blind Boone concert. The late information is that Mr. John H. Patterson, having a desire to help Blind Boone, bought a block of seats in the front center of the hall. Neither the management of the Blind Boone company or Rev. Parsons knew that Mr. Patterson had bought the seats, which accounts for their being unable to explain with any degree of satisfaction why colored people could not occupy certain vacant seats. In a private conversation with Rev. Day, Mr. Patterson told how he bought the tickets just to help out, but he and his relatives and friends were unable to use them. We are pleased to publish this information, which substantiates Rev. Parson's claim that no segregation was intended. Rev. Parsons has the confidence of the members of his church, and the recent publication that he would be asked to resign proved to be a frame-up by some dissatisfied members. Chicago, Apr. 22.—Chicago, once referred to by its mayor as the second German city, has awakened to the fact that it is the first Negro city in America. The famous black belt is a belt no more; it's a coat of one color. Estimates today by Negro leaders set the Negro population of Chicago at 125,000. Two years ago the number was 25,000. Demand for labor, high wages and the awakening of the Negro through travels induce by the war, are given as causes for the tremendous influx. Housing and labor problems have resulted. Labor is regarded as the one which may cause trouble. Leaders of both races are endeavoring to solve the problem before the city's peace is menaced. "Negro labor is employed largely by the packing houses," said Arnold Hill, secretary of the Urband league. "It is organized and affiliated with labor federations. This probably will prevent troubles which might arise if the one race were to offer its services at a lower scale. "The spreading of the black belt has been accomplished gradually. There have been some conflicts, when colored families established themselves, but no real racial trouble. However, Negroes have crowded the whites out of some territory, so that it is now almost impossible to define the 'black belt.' "Negro living conditions have improved with growth. Over 800 Negro business men have their own places. Thousands own their homes and the old squail quarters have been replaced by clean, well-lighted streets and neatly kept buildings." ADVERTISERS realize quick results when using these col-urns to reach the people. Phone Us! Maiu 7698. Oscar De Priest, colored alderman, predicted large additions to the Negro population of Chicago as troops are disbanded. "The boys will come here to practice the trades they have learned in the service. Many of them will not be content to go back to the South." De Priest said. "All they want is a fair chance and an education." American Weoman Anniversary Sunday afternoon, April 27, Dayton Camp No. 4 will celebrate the anniversary of the society at Eaker St. Church.

Our prayer meeting and class meetings will be held every Wednesday night. Members are urged to meet their leaders, and assist in making the mid-week meeting what it should be. Will you be there next Wednesday night? Remember, stranger, you are made welcome at Eaker Street Church. EUCLID AVENUE NOTES All of the services last Sunday were well attended. Rev. Upthegroves delivered an appropriate and inspiring sermon at the morning services. The Sunday school program in the afternoon was well rendered. Miss Payne and others who had charge of the program are to be commended for their excellent work. The Eastern cantata by the vested choir in the evening was the best ever given under the direction of Mrs. Lewis and was thoroughly enjoyed by all. The play, "Trouble in Turkey Trot Church" was repeated Monday evening by special request. Mrs. Aldridge, Mobley, and Prutt showed exceptional ability in the portrayal of their respective characters. All members of the play deserve great credit for their splendid work. It is hoped that the play will be given again in the near future. District conference will convene at Allen Chapel, April 29, 1919. The committee has arranged a program and reception for the ministers and delegates.

CINE IN THE Drugs of Any Kind Correspondent Gives Interesting Description of Trip Over Eternal City. WONDERFUL SCENE UNFOLDS Plan to Make Aerial Tours of City an Attractive Feature for Vikitors When Normal Conditions Be. Western Newspaper Union Staff Correspondent. (Copyright, 1919, by Western Newspaper Union). Rome.—When you make that long promised European trip to see the great battlefields of France and Italy and get to Rome you will undoubtedly have the opportunity of inspecting the Eternal City from the deck of a dirigible. By the time Europe has set its house in order and has recovered sufficiently from war to make tourists comfortable Rome will be featuring an aerial tour of the city which no one will cure to miss, even though the cost of the trip may be something like $200. Instead of lumbering through the streets in the old-time rubberbell wagons, or in a taxi, you will be able to lounge comfortably in well-padded seats of an airship and see at fairly close range the layout of Rome with its glories of ancient and modern architecture and at the same time feel perfectly safe, because a dirigible moves along with even less vibration than a Pullman sleeper or American parlor car. I have just landed from such an inspection of Rome. Except for a few moments' uneasiness while the dirigible was leaving the ground the trip was a marvelous experience and almost absolutely free from any anxious moments, even though the big ship sailed along 2,000 feet in the ship at times. It was a war craft, built for scout duty, and capable of carrying 30 persons and was nothing like the comfortable passenger airships that are now being planned and which will soon be in actual operation not only in Rome but in other European capitals as well. The big factories and the men who designed these ships are now turning their thoughts to the possibilities of passenger traffic and they know that Americans are going to be some of their best customers during the days of enormous tourist traffic that are to come. In Italy, as well as France and England, it is taken for granted that the day of air travel is here. No Chance for Civilians Now. Just now, of course, civilians find it impossible to fly over Rome, or even visit Rome for that matter, unless they have special business there. All transportation facilities are being used to demobilize sections of the amies and there is general congestion of railways and hotels. But this reconstruction period is not expected to last many months. As guests of the Italian government and armed with a special permit to fly, our party of American newspaper men, eight in number, were taken up at mid-afternoon for a one-hour flight in which our ship did, a figure-eight course over Rome, flying directly above the magnificent structure of St. Peter's, the Quirinal palace, the Coliseum and the newer monumental edifice in white marble and gold that has been erected to commemorate the creation of new Italy, the vast edifice of simple and severe architecture of the monument to Victor Immanuel II. In automobiles we were rushed out of Rome through the ancient city walls, some of which were built during the days of the old Roman republic, across the gardenlike campagna of green fields and flocks of sheep to an immense airdrome in the prairie land. The whole of the interior was one vast room in which three dirigibles were moored safe from rain and storm. By means of a portable staircase on wheels we climbed into the swinging basket of the dirigible and took places where we could find them around the three gasoline engines, 12-cylinder Flats, each attached to a separate propeller. **Carries Crew of Seven.** Leather coats lined with sheepskin were distributed, although the weather on the ground was springlike. Seven Italian army men composed the crew of the ship. The officers used megaphones at times to shout orders to the crew and to communicate with the small army of soldiers that held the guide ropes on the ground. Once the party was aboard the dirigible was guided out through a great pair of rolling doors into a lawnite meadow. There, with nose pointed to the wind, the engines were started with a terrific roar. The final sand bags were thrown from a pile on sand deck and the ship started ascending without a tremor. Unless one looked at the ground the sensation of moving was not noticeable. I watched for a few moments the manner in which a gas engine man tuned up one of the three motors aboard, and was startled a few seconds later to find that we had moved skyward about 300 feet. The hundred odd helpers on the ground had already been dwarfed late there again. The Bison wagged. with the mountains in the distance, was unfolding into a vast panorama. We continued to ascend to more than 1,000 feet, moving all the time with increased speed toward the city of Rome, ten miles away. Panorama of Rome. At a speed of 40 to 50 miles an hour we sped over farmhouses and ruins of the Appian way toward the city. Within five minutes the miles of arched stone aqueducts that stretch from Rome to the mountains had been pressed and we were in the outskirts of the town with the River Tiber just ahead threading the solidly packed rows of houses like a dull blue ribbon. They tell you in Rome that the most satisfactory view of the wrecked Coliseum, where the Caesars used to murder Christians by the hundred and where the gladiatorial combats of the old days were held, may be had by moonlight. However, a much better idea of the Coliseum and its size can be obtained by viewing it from the air. From 1,000 to 1,500 feet above earth you can get a better estimate of its size, and as you float by you have to scrutinize closely to notice the damage time has brought to walls and arena. Near the Coliseum the other ruins are less distinguishable. They are too small to stand out in the panorama. The palace of Augustus is a mere pile of bricks. The world-famous Palatine hill near by is to all appearances an irregular strip of brick-strewn meadowland and loses all of the grandeur that the fanciful tourist, on foot among the ruins, is able to reconstruct from his imagination. On the other hand, the Quirinal palace, the Rome residence of the king of Italy in peace times, is notably uninspiring when viewed from the street. But seen from the air, the magnificence of the Quirinal is impressive. Wonderful Scene Unrolls. To all appearances we were barely-moving. Whole sections of landscape presented themselves smoothly and seemingly slowly. We had ample time to inspect with considerable care the larger points of interest from our vantage point in the stendy basket, and it was only after landing that we learned our speed had averaged 40 miles an hour. The distance above the ground was responsible for the delusion of slow speed. These dirigibles seem utterly unafraid of swooping along a very few feet above the church towers when it is desirable to fly low. When President Wilson arrived in Rome several airships flew along the line of march, keeping so close to the ground that the faces of the crew were visible from the crowd. The glories of St. Peter's, viewed from the air, are no small part of the joy of flying over Rome. It is only from a high elevation that one is able to appreciate the perfect symmetry of design that represents the best gentus of architectural thought in Rome through four centuries under the patronage of over a score of popes. Naturally enough the finer embellishments of St. Peter's are more or less invisible from the air. The famous Egyptian obelisk, brought to Rome by one of the old emperors, who utilized 800 men and 140 horses to perform part of the work and spent a small fortune in gold on the enterprise, is a dot in the landscape. The statues are mere blurs, the fountains are simply brighter spots in the landscape. You have, in brief, below you a sort of miniature model of St. Peter's in color, resembling an architect's clay model of a building. Trip Quickly Made. One of the disappointing features of a first flight over Rome is the quickness with which the trip is accomplished. You have no sooner gotten into the spirit of viewing things from aloft until your machine scoots outside the city over the green fields again and you have groups of country people below gassing skyward for the ever interesting sight of an airship. Once headed toward the airdrome, you will probably worry a bit about how efficiently the crew is going to manage the descent and landing. You commence to realize what an unwelldy thing an airship is, how sensitive it is to the air currents, how much it weighs, and, above all other things, how far away the ground appears. You consider, after a bit of thought, that after all it was an idiotic idea to fly while the airship business is in a state of comparative infancy. About that time the airdrome, with its immense roof and sides of corrugated iron, is in sight. The pilots circle the airdrome and do a sort of figure six in the air. On the ground nearly a battalion of men are rushing along to the spot the pilot has picked for the landing. Sure enough, just as you feared they are dropping the huge machine just like an elevator. The ground suddenly looks very close. About that time you get your first slight car; it is the crew dumping several barrels of water ballast to lighten the machine and stop the car. The jerk is less than the usual elevator makes when stopping for a floor. Had you not been watching closely you would not have noticed it. Detroit—The house of correction here is to be made hospitable. Mayor Cousens announced. A string band and orchestra and movies will be introduced. To complete the picture some one suggested the old-fashioned welcome mat at the front door. Jury Couldn't See It.

F. in France there no doubt ingered a hope that he would some day spend a "pleasant afternoon" on the banks of the Rhine in Germany. How this hope was made a fact is shown in the above photograph of men of the Rainbow division dancing on the boat docks at Nelderbreisig. 2023 Rev. Father J. N. Samuels-Belboder, Vicar. Easter day was greeted by a large number of the faithful upon their knees in adoration, and receiving the Blessed Sacrament of Our Lord's Body and Blood at 7:00 a.m. in the church. This was a deeply touching service, and most effective, because of the fact that the minds of those participating were at that early hour free from the impressions which activities of the day would have inevitably made upon them had they communed later. It is largely on this account—viz., to receive the greatest spiritual benefit—that the church requires her children to receive the Eucharist at a very early hour in the day, and before food is taken, that is, fasting. As is noted the service was most effective. This does not, however, remove the other wonderfully touching and devoutly unlifting character of the second celebration which was at eleven o'clock. This was a high choral celebration. The entire service was intoned. The choir and congregation sang responsively to every prayer, suffrage, confession, absolution, intercession, and adoration. The vicar intoned the service after Merbeck, and used the Gregorian tones, harmonized by Sir John Stainer. After the Prayer of Humble Access, he sang, while upon his knees, the appealing Agnus Dei, set to comparable music by the famous Gounod. After the Prayer of Consecration, the choir and congregation sang the Adoring Hymn, Bread of the World in Mercy Broken, Wine of the Soul in Mercy Shed. During the communing of the faithful, the organist, Mrs. Grace Finley, played as softly as possible a Gregorian interlude which went to the heart, driving from it every wandering thought, and preparing it for the reception of the Visit and remembrance of the Risen Lord and Savior. Truly, the atmosphere of heaven filled the church and the hearts of the grateful worshipers. There was a large attendance at each of the three services and the joy of the day was generally felt, especially by those who faithfully observed the Lenten vows and discipline. And how could this be otherwise? The sermon, Victory Eternal, was the crown and cornerstone of all those that were delivered during the period of Lent. The vicar showed that evil is often triumphant; and evil when joined to human injenity and human power works a havoc which is most appalling and disconcerting. It drives terror into the heart. It is most disintegrating to ordered reason and intention of fidelity. It is more—it paralyzes the will to think and do right. It sweeps the good man off his base exactly as a giant sea wave sweeps one from a rock, and leaves him stumped and floundering. Such was the effect of the shadow that swept and swallowed completely the faith of the faithful disciples and good women who befriended and followed our Blessed Lord. Their faith was blanched, their hope extinguished, their reasoning power paralyzed, but their love remained. And after passing through this crucible of sudden pain and doubt, they were as suddenly relieved by the appearance of their resurrected Lord, risen to die no more, risen to prove his superior power over men and things evil, risen to prove the spiritual instructions he so often gave them, risen as a victor in a victory eternal. To those who trust in Him today there is no depth of sin so deep but out of it he can arise and be cleansed; there is no sorrow so bitter but out of it can be extracted the honey of comfort; nothing—be it ever so dejecting, perplexing, sad, troublesome, painful, humiliating, discouraging, and destructive—but that the power of the resurrected Christ is near and ready to help to a victory which shall be eternal. At the evening service, the sermon was preached from the text, "But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God, from hence forth expecting." It is too lengthy to write here the exposition of this beautiful and reassuring text. It was expository and presented to the earnest and continuous consideration of the hearers. The word phenomenal can only vaguely describe the complete success of the Easter market and supper given by the Rector's Guild last Saturday. And every patron was most outspokenly genuine in the praise of the entire affair. The dinner was a "ne plus ultra" in preparation; and as to the pastries and flowers, they were nearly all sold one hour after the market began. The fancy work booth alone cleared a quarter hundred dollars. Every one was satisfied beyond expression. We cordially thank all our friends for helping us to so great a success. The St. Cecilia Guild is preparing for their May fair. This is enough. Only to add that the charms of art will be more lavishly in evidence than ever, and to ask those who have not hitherto availed themselves to join the growing group of our friends and patrons to come and see. The date will be announced. The attendance campaign is on. It begins next Sunday morning and will last for four successive Sundays. Our goal is 200 at the morning service, Half again at the evening service. Where do you spend Sunday? Do you carry home one definite thought from church at each service you attend? A person in a civilized country without a church home—a spiritual meeting—place is hardly better than his dog or cat or chicken or horse. In fact, not as good. For, for these animals there is no such place. They lay claim to no superior intelligence. They have not had a Person to die for their aim as human beings have. They are not responsible creatures. With man, it is different and exactly the opposite. They are therefore required to be in some place of worship, of their own choice. St. Margaret's offers all this opportunity. We teach, we comfort, we absolve sins as Jesus commands us (Matt. 18:18; John 20:23). We do all this in the name of Him who died and rose again for us. Come. The service on Sunday afternoon will be for the children. The little ones will recite their pieces, present their Lenten offering, and sing. The Lessons of the service will be read by Randolph Taylor and Jones Mosee. The cross-bearer or crucifer will be Main Richardson. Edward Parsons will sing. The Sunday school is flourishing under the present teachers, and we hope in a few months to announce something new to all. Services next Sunday: Low Sunday, Holy Communion, at 7:00 a.m.; church school, 10:00 a.m.; morning prayer and sermon, 11:00 a.m.; evenings and children celebration, 4:00 p.m. All are cordially invited to be present and take part in our services. FROM REV. T. W. MILLS The mid-year conference and mass meeting of the Akron District of the A. M. E. Zion connection will meet jointly Thursday and Friday May 1 and 2, in Cooper's Chapel A. M. E. Zion Church. Rt. Rev. Bishop J. S. Caldwell, D.D., will preside. All of the ministers and missionary women are expected to attend. My attention is called to the church notes wherein I see the connection has two churches in Dayton, the St. Paul A. M. E. Zion with no location, and Mills A. M. E. Zion Church located on the corner of Cherry and Western Avenues, of which the writer is the founder and organizer. Rev. J. D. Meade is the pastor. April 14, 1918, he had what he called a re-opening of Mills A. M. E. Zion Church; the members unanimously decided that this society be called by name stated, the same was accepted by Bishop J. S. Caldwell and conference, in the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, Pittsburgh, Pa., September, 1915, and recorded in the minutes. Therefore no other name is given. Whereby Zion is rightly called Mills A. M. E. Zion Church, corner of Cherry and Western Ave. Rev. J. D. Mead is the faithful pastor. It cannot be said of him that he is an Esau, disposing the birth of Zion in Dayton, for any other name would be fictitious. Respectfully yours, Rev. T. W. Mills, Founder of Mills A. M. E. Zion Church, Dayton, Ohio. ROSEBUD CLUB NO. 1 The regular meeting of Rosebud Club No. 1 held its regular weekly meeting Tuesday, April 22, at the Community House.
