A Bitter Fight is in Prospect - Matters of Moment at the Nation's Capital - Everybody Going to Business League Meeting in Philadelphia. By. R. W. Thompson. Mr Napier's future will be watched with concern as he faces the risk of continued success and helpfu Lawyer Patterson Named as Mr. Na nier's Successor. President Wilson has sent to the Senate the name of Attorney Adam E. Patterson, the chief justice of the treasury, to succeed Mr. Napier, Mr. Patterson comes well recommended, and championed politically, and is the Nation's Negro Democratic League. His case is handcapped somewhat by a bitter fighter Senator Vardiman who is against consent to object to the nomination. Patterson is based solely upon color. The friends of the Oklahoma statesman are lopeful of the strong personal influence of Senator Gore in the Senate, and his recognized people very naturally, wish for the confirmation of Mr. Patterson, as they would regard it as a calamity if the registrar of the treasury should be lost to Everybody Going to the Business League Meeting.

How Fortunes Are Made "No fortune can be made by savings from a salary," said Mr. S. W. Rutherford, president of Beneficial Association "Fortunes are made by careful investments in live business enterprises and large commercial operations." Mr. Benevich, a concrete example of the truth of Mr. Rutherford's observation, it began fourteen years ago in a back room, for a company that now owns the entire building in which it was the humbleest tenant—easily worth $50,000 and has a business valued at $50,000. The company gives employment to over 700 persons. The N. B. A., when required to put up a lease to the credit of the organization, interests of its policyholders, came forward with twice the amount and placed $50,000 to the credit of the organization. In the bonds and securities of traction lines in Washington and elsewhere, in the principal railroad corporations, the Standard Oil Company, municipal bonds, water and gas and electric companies, Standard Oil Company, municipal hedged investments. It is this type of business operations that make fortunes such an institution as the N. B. A. should be encouraged. Mr. Rutherford, as a business man, has coursed, capacity, can-do, and determination directed by him merits the support of all of our people in the territory covered by it and will doubtless expand further in association as its fine points become known.

AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER. Short Flights SHORT FLIGHTS. The foolish fears of what might happen. I can cast all away Among the closer scented grass, Among the new-mown hay! Among the husking of the corn Where drowsy popples nod, Where thoughts die and good are born Out in the fields with God. Hope is the Negro's biggest asset. Lynchers and bichloride of mercury are running an even race as a destroyer or life these days. The Japanese are objecting strenuously to the theory that the world belongs to the white race. Chief McQuade, the Pittsburgh police officer, "let lovers kiss and spoon in the city parks." Let them "For the love of Mike," how are you going to prevent them? There is no law to keep a colored man from going into business, nor is there a law to prevent him from patronizing his brother in business. Our case if far from hopeless. Vice is caused both by the presence and the absence of money. How can the disease be effectually eradicated—that is the question that is worrying the psychologists and social reformers of the day. Southern colored business men will harken to "The Call of the North" in August and attend en masse the fourteenth annual session of the National Negro Business League at Philadelphia. From present indications, it will be "the best yet." "The Frogs" will have their own club here, will wear a yellow after the first of July. The building, a beautiful one, is located at 111 West 132d street, in the heart o the Harlem district. Some of New York's best known and most influential men are "Frogs." Hon. J. Frank Wheaton, New York's brilliant attorney, was on the occasion of the celebration of the seventy-fifth anniversary of the founding of the A.W.M.E. church at that place. The W.M.E. family has lived there for many years. The citizens of New York will hold their semi-centennial emancipation celebration the last ten day so October. The citizens of New York will appropriate $5,000 in aid of the project, and R. N. Wood, a well-known leader, is in charge of the details to be worked out by the commission. The Tuskegee Institute band, orchestra and glee club is member, and windwind leader of Prof. N. Clark Smith. They are being greeted with flowers upon their arrival. The East wishes to be favored by a visit from these accomplished artists. Unless all signs fail, the bench of bishops of the A. M. E. church will be adorned in 1916 by Dr. I. N. Ross, the eloquent obliterant of the Holocaust A. M. E. church at Washington, D. C. The honor that should have been his in 1912 will not be withheld longer than 1916. There is an endcurrent of sympathy that a new editor will be elected in 1916. There is a unanimous call for that master of erudition and literary giant, Dr. W. W. W. W. W. was the logical choice of the conference at Kansas City last year. When a man cannot be loyal to the organization of which he is a member and an officer, it is up to him to hand in the work. He is a disturbing element among those who have the work in hand. Mischiefmakers are not wanted in the church, fraught with the demands of any kind that means real business. Illinois is another of the big commonwealths of the country to organize a State Negro Business League. It is headed by J. E. McCormick, president, and A. H. Kenebrew, of Jacksonville, is secretary. A special car will be chartered to carry the delegates to the National Negro Business League in Philadelphia in August. Fisk University has 138 graduates this year, including a large class from Meharyn Medical College. The commencement address was delivered by Dr. J. E. McCormick, executive sermon was preached by Bishop Charles Henry Phillips. Both are men of national importance, a high-water mark of wise counsel for young people about to take their places in the battle of life. Some time ago the Summer civil rights law was held by the United States Supreme Court as being inapplicable to the jurisdiction of the United States, and cases now hold it to be inapplicable to federal soil or the high seas under the jurisdiction of the United States, and the court now holds it to be applicable to the nation. The Negro must now turn to the states for redress, if denied equal accommodations in public places or by common carriers. * The truly "ideal husband" has been found in Grand Junction, Col. This rara case was heard by the court when at work, spends five out of the seven evenings each week in her company, and carries her pictures in her car when leaves for his office in the morning and at noon and again when he returns from work. A fortune awaits that wonderful husband, and the nation with the recipe for making husbands of this model type. The centenary of the birth of Henry Ward Beecher, the most noted preacher of his day, was duly celebrated last Sat. November 15, 2014, at Litchfield, Conn. Rev. Newell Dwight Hills. Dr. Beecher's successor as pastor of Plymouth church, Brooklyn, was the orator of the occasion. Beecher was also famous like his famous sister, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and was a humanitarian of the broadest character. There are few Beecher in these parts of the country. Beecher was green in the hearts of the Negroes of this land. The erection of a fine two-story office building at Birmingham, Ala., by lawyer H. V. Cashin marks a new era in the professional life of the colored people of the South. The cement block. The lower floor will be fitted up for stores and the second floor will be occupied by Mr. Cashin for a colored lawyer in the South to own his own office building. He has a law library said to be worth $3,000. Mr. Cashin is the state of Howard University, is practicing medicine successfully at Decatur, Ala. The annual Rosebud Convention of the Grand Fountain. United Order of True Reformers, attracted a distinguished assembly of our women at East Louis this week. Louis this was on hand and delivered One of the happiest addresses of his career. Somebody wants to run Mr. Ross for a federal office, but that worthy gentleman says "The rehabilitation of Mr. Ross is not worth it and I cannot leave it for anything else. Success in this work will be glory enough for me." Bully for Ross! He is indeed a noble successor to the saint-William W. Browne and Walter F. Griffin. Dr. Booker T. Washington in the current issue of the Atlantic Monthly says in the paper that he has Negro and the labor unions. The Negro believes as ardently in the power of the labor unions as the whitest man, but he is shut out of the unions on account of his color, and hence must antagonize them in order to maintain their power. Dr. Washington breaks by circumstance. If as the doctor encouragingly says, some of the unions are giving evidence of the black burden under the banners, they are taking the right course that will make labor organizations the black trial situation. The black man is against the labor organizations solely because these organizations are against him. If Dr. Washington read carefully Dr. Washington's illuminating article in the June Atlantic Monthly in the issue of the black dispassionate analysis that characterize the production will be as valuable to the white man as to the black man. Rev. B. G. Shaw, pastor of the Washington Metropolitan Metropolitan A., M. E. Zion church, at St. Louis, Mo., has taken a course in financial education for the financiers of the country. At a recent rally, in a single effort, he raised the money he will oversee every pastor in the Zion connection and will make his 'calling and election sure' as financial secretary, for which exalted position he will be given. He will conference at Charlotte, N. C. At present he leads all candidates in the field for the position now serving on his second term as financial secretary, and who will be placed on the bench of bishops in 1916. Dr. Shaw is a young man, as was his veteran and will be give this just reward by the most general conference of Zion, which he will attend.

KNOX, PUBLISHER AND MANAGING EDITOR. ELWOOD C. KNOX. BUSINESS MANAGER. SATURDAY, AUG. 2, 1913. MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION The hot weather service was prompt and efficient this week. National Negro Business League meets in convention at Philadelphia, August 20-22. Everybody's invited. The K. of P.'s to Baltimore, the busi- ness men to Philadelphia, this month. Take your choice. Just as well take Booker T. Washington has expressed himself as wishing to meet the edi- tors of Negro publications at the forti- coming Negro press convention which meets in Philadelphia in connection with the National Business League. Negro in Chicago charged with assaulting a white woman was acquitted when tried by the court. Now had that been in a certain section there wouldn't been any court." Many an innocent person has been hustled to his hereafter because there wasn't any court. Extract your own moral from the Chicago case. John Wannamaker, the millionaire merchant of Philadelphia, will entertain the delegates who will be in attendance at the meeting of the National Negro Business League in the Egyptian hall of his store in that city. This is quite an honor and doubtless will be considered so by Booker T. Washington and the members of the league. Miss Sylvia Pankhurst had gone on a sleep strike in a London, England, jail when last heard of. It was her mother who gained her liberty not long since by going on a hunger strike. The daughter walks the floor refusing to lie down. If she were in Indianapolis during these hot nights she could go right on to bed and still not go to sleep without half trying. When it came to holding his job at the expense of manhood rights Mr. Napier concluded that it was better to give up the job. It is to be hoped that in doing so he has won the respect of his race. Much indifference has sprung up in the race owing to cases similar that of Mr. Napier. Men have been known to sacrifice, only to have it best remembered by themselves. Booker T. Washington calls attention to the gratifying fact that lynching is on the decrease. He said that fourteen lynchings had occurred with in the first three months of the year. Within the six months now passed nineteen additional lynchings have occurred. While this total of thirty three lynchings is a frightful offering of civilization, yet the situation has improved over that of last year. The improved condition is gratifying. If it maintains the barbarous thing of lynching will be reduced to the same standing that it has in other countries. Elsewhere will be seen the address of Governor Sulzer, of New York, at the Gettyburg celebration, delivered on the scene of that memorable struggle July 3. The splendid utterances prove the importance of the great battle of Meade and Lee in settling the quarrel of the sections. It was here and on a similar occasion that Abraham Lincoln was inspired to speak gloriously because of the importance of that battle. President Wilson and Governor Sulzer were of the Lincoln spirit, in sentiment, in strain-bursting to rapturous song, exponential of man's highest powers of adoration and cestacy, when they stood before the enthusiastic thousands, erstwhile enemies, but now as one man for a united country. NAPIER RESIGNS AS REGISTER OF THE TREASURY Word comes from Washington that J. C. Napier has resigned his position as Register of the Treasury as a protest against the segregating movement that is now on in the departments at the capital. It is said that Mr. Napier was requested to introduce "Jim Crow" methods in his own department. He concluded that he owed it to his self-respect and to that of his loose from the Democratic administration rather than obey his instruction. The hard feature of the segregation movement is, that, in this case, it has the sanction of the government. This virtually means a precedent established, and where it will be most effective in blocking the route to ultra American citizenship. The most optimistic of us along this line feel stamped. As long as the government swung clear of men's bias there was no answer as a sort of headquarters of unity, and that the flow would tend toward the people, perhaps influencing a change within reasonable time. In fact, it was not that way. The flow of sentiment has been toward the capital, as we said at another time. Men have gone from their vicinities tinctured with their respective shades of belief or notions on the Negro question. What men are at home they are not, and what men are not back to the first great principle that the people are the government, a most beautiful principle when a country is freed of all such malignant questions as the race question is in America. It stands to reason that the officials at Washington are doing exactly what their constituents at home stand for, or else they would not do it. They would not destroy themselves about the Negroes or any one else. Of course, some malicious personal anti-race feeling enters these segregating orders, yet they are sustained by a quiet determined sentiment that is harmony with the action. The men issuing the orders and the administration that sanctions the movement are to be blamed for taking the initiative, setting in motion feelings and activities where they were not even expected by the most rabid racial partisans. They are not to be blamed for doing a thing contrary to usage except as it concerns the offices at Washington. This much must be conceded the situation if we will think of it, and discuss it in an intelligent manner. It must be conceded that what is being done in public, in the offices is being done in private life throughout the country, also in the better hotels and theaters; this is indicative of public sentiment, at least on the part of the white portion of the public; consequently we cannot think of those in power at Washington as special enemies to the race. We see them nearly as we see liberty, conceding something of civil liberty instead of the whole thing just as the others do. They sin greater in that they have introduced the business of discrimination and segregation in a new place, and where it could just as well have been otherwise. THE EX-SLAVE MOVEMENT An Ex-Slaves' Association has been organized in Birmingham, Ala. The object of the organization in the main is to secure pension based on the fact that the members were formerly slaves. This is a revival of an old movement which was on several years ago. At that time we called attention to the unreasonable position of expecting aid by way of pensions from the government, even for so worthy individuals as the slaves who were still living. We spoke of the possibility of ex-slave homes. This, we think, would appeal to state governments and perhaps to the federal government. We are of the same opinion. Ex-slave pensions at once suggest nav for slaves, a most logical thing in view of the fact that the slaves were legalized property. The war, however, squared things, divesting slave owners of their property, and at the same time practically enjoining the enslaved against recovery by way of unpaid for services. As much as we would like to see all of the ex-slaves and their descendants come into what might be called their own, we should look at the thing squately. Many a Southern white man saw his last dollar swept away when Lee passed his sword to Grant at Appomattox. The debts were a thing of cancellation. But as to ex-slave homes, we should have them for the aged. If they are poor it is because most of them had no chance to make good in life. In this day of opportunity the laggard that dallies and finds himself in the last days high and dry on the reefs of financial despair they will have himself a manhood or a nurse he heals. It is a pity and a shame if one ex-slave, who reached manhood or womanhood in the service of others, in the days of slavery, is without good shelter, or without sufficient food and clothing. This class of individuals have no right to suffer want in any form. DALLAS, TEX.

Lincoln Giants Win First Two Games in Championship Series—American Giants Win Third Game—Great Games Saturday and Sunday. (By Cary B. Lewis.) CHICAGO, Ill. July 14, 2000 and 10,000 fans were present at Scholars' park yesterday to witness the first game in the series between the Lincoln and Chicago Giants of this city. Every automobile and taxicab available on the South Side was engaged for the game, and the crowds were jammed and thousands walked. The Eighth Riment band of the K. of P.'s furnished music for the waiting thong-ing benches were made especially to accommodate the massive crowd. It was a beautiful sight. Ladies were there and dressed in the helmet and knee pads. Benches were made especially for the latest Parisian styles. Costly errors on the part of the home team beset the bench shut out. The score was 3 to 0 in favor of the New York team. Cyclone Williams held the home boys all through the same. The vistors' runs were made after two men were out, errors paving the way in each case. Lindsey was the last to have much to do with the final result. Cyclone Williams knocked a ball over the fence just a few feet from the Bull Durham and the tobacco people will award him $25.00. First Inning—First half, three men were out, first, Barber gets out on a fly and Pierce does likewise. Second Inning—Dad Johnson gets a hit Seventh Inning—Dad Johnson makes third on a single, caused by the fumbling of a nice hit over in left, Johnson scores. The team was one two, three with the Americans. Ninth Iming-The visitors feeling they had the game sewed up, did not score and the Americans came to the bat with a pause, Lindsey started off with a hit, Peterson walked, but the next three went out on files. The score: LINCOLN.

IF YOU CANT CALL, WHILE IN MEMORY, ALL LETTERS PROMPTLY ANSWERED. Send us Your Subscription A. B. IS THE RECORD MADE BY THE National Order of the Mosaic Templars of America. LOCATED IN Little Rock, Ark. This order was organized in 1882 by J. E. Bush and C. W. Keatts, two Negroes, and has long since passed the experimental stage. Half Million Dollars Paid to Widows and Orahans The National Order of the Mosaic Templars of America conducts Disability, Endowment and Burial Departments, and through these departments has paid to widows and orphans and beneficiaries of deceased members the enormous sum of a Half Million Dollars. Substantial Proof of Reliability Failures and frauds have been so numerous in organizations of this character that the public is naturally skeptical. We cite you the following evidences of our reliability, and same may be verified by spending a little time investigating: The order is now erecting a National Temple Building in Little Rock, Ark., at a cost of $60,000, the same being erected out of the order's surplus funds, and no extra building tax or assessment has been levied upon the members. This has never been heard of in the history of fraternal orders. This order has never levied an extra tax upon its members to pay off any kind of obligation, and not a single instance can be cited during thirty-two years, where the order has failed to meet promptly its just obligations to the people. In our Endowment department, the ninety-day waiver, which appears in most certificates, has never been taken advantage of, because the order has always had sufficient funds to meet its claims whenever proof of death is made. Our Endowment department is national and has been inspected from time to time by various insurance commissioners. The order has come out of each inspection with flying colors. As we grow older, instead of decreasing, our Endowment surplus is growing, as the following will show: A Lesson in Figures Rates per Year and Benefits Paid. Men's Department, $11.75 per year; endowment, $300; sick benefits, $3 per week; burial, $50. Women's Department, $8.75 per year; endowment, $300; sick benefits, $2 per week; burial, $50 Children's Department, $1.85 per year; endowment, $50; sick benefits, $1 per week; burial, $20. The above rates include all taxes local lodge, state and Supreme Grand Lodges. The endowment policies of $300 are graded and payable as follows: Should death occur during the first twelve calendar months, $100; after the first twenty-four calendar months, $200; after the first thirty-six calendar months, $300. Local Lodge Divisions The order operates in four divisions, and charter fees for organizing new lodges are as follows: Temples for adult males, cost of charter $15; Chambers for adult females, cost of charter $10; Palaces for children, cost of charter, $5; Uniform Rank, cost of charter, $5. Opportunities for Organizers The order is now conducting a nation-wide campaign for members and is allowing organizers the most liberal contract ever given by any fraternal order in the world. During the past twenty-four months we have organized 600 new lodges. Some organizers have earned as high as $200 per month. We allow organizers, under extension plan, to set up local lodges for the price of the charter fee. For instance, organizer would set up a number of sixty lodges at $2 each, that would amount to $120. His charter would cost $15, leaving him a net profit of $105. We are anxious to engage active young men and women in all parts of the United States to organize lodges. Especially are we anxius to secure organizers in Illinois, Indiana, Virginia and West Virginia, Maryland, North and South Carolina, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, New York and Kansas. This offer will not remain open indefinitely, and you had better write today for terms. Address all communications to J. E. BUSH, N. G. S., Box 36 Little Rock, Ark. Wm. Alexander, N. G. M., 5041 W.

Madam Dempierre of that act, one doing the comedy needs quite a little training; she puts her song over nicely, in working with the other two girls, but of that act, the other and so on. But I have difficulties trying to get in on this step and the other, and so on. But I am actress some day. Madam claims she has not been on the stage long; that being a fact, she does very well.

Perhaps for timeless-laugh, lyrical quality none of her race is superior. She was the happiest, most joyful singer, the most lovesters for when they listen to the greater sing- ANITA WILKINS, SOPRANO. ers. Her first number, "Castellano," taxes the word and thought capacities to describe, compel, compare, shape passages and such embellishments for the singer's art. Miss Wilkins does these with grace and such embellishments for her enchantment. Her voice here is purely operatic. A dash of the dramatic enters, making a fashionable line. Her skill is not less than E above the high water register of high C. That E is a tone which refuses to be described. The audible quality is calm and peaceful as a Sabbath day in a village. It is between one of those beautiful old French chansons and modern French songs and dreamy and ravishing at once - divinely beautiful. Then when she sang that popular air, "Good, Good, Goody," in her own way, she is beautiful and enchanting. Miss Wilkins has been near in Indianapolis before, but never to this advantage. She is beautiful and enchanting on the stage as one could imagine. Her costumes are in keeping, beautiful and becoming. She sang gloriously and was gloriously re- WASHINGTON, D. C., THEATERS.

There are a few colored business enterprises of Norfolk that will advertise their business in a strictly advertising business. Don't worry. It is too hot. If your business doesn't come up to the other man's it, it will be your business, and the other man does. You watch the man who advertises his business, your business, and the other man does. You watch the man who advertises his business, your business, and the other man does. You open your business and look for free advertising by people who come to tell others. That is poor business policy and is very bad for a business man. Try the man for advertising and he results in not being a poor Negro journals, circulating in every state and territory in the United States, an attribution not worth the effort. This is one of the many good reasons why you should advertise in this paper, and it is the ability of intelligent people to reach the people who have confidence it that paper, as the readers of the intelligent people on it. The ability of intelligent people on it. Buying and advertising are twin brothers. You advertise and the readers will buy and advertising are two brothers. Presses his confidence in his stock of goods to the public, and they see that he has confidence in him. This means getting in touch with a clientele that means more business for you. So let me write your business, and the other man does. 215 Cumberland street, Norfolk, Va. PROF. P. G.

JOHN EASON'S DIXIE MINSTRELS. With the Frank A. Robbin's Shows. (By David C. Smith.) This is the eleventh week out. We are now making a two weeks tour of Long Island and our manager, Mr. Salval, all smiles over the immense business we are doing. We are in teh heart of the beautiful summer resorts and our house is packed every night. Our minstrel is said to be the best that ever struck the Island. King Moody and David Adams, companyants, are certainly whooping things up. Their funny savings and funny songs fairly captivate the audiences. "Pop" Adams, the interiorist, is at his best and handles things skillfully. Prof. John Eason, our leader, is a skillful man at managing the orchestra, and a drummer, has left for his home in Wilmington, Del., and has been replaced by Mr. Charlie Johnson, the drummer. Mr. Al Nutter, our musical artist, is still capturing the people with his won-come talent. Mr. Charles C. Creath, our cornetist, is a cornet player of rare ability. Mr. Hardy, our conductor, over this route as the demon trombone player, and he certainly does make it talk. Mr. Hardy, our conductor, linger wherever he goes. Zollsalie, our snake enchantress, is a wonder in her manner of handling snakes. Mr. Bill Harrington, our ticket kicker, said he would be happy his arms are completely worn out from showing out the pasteboards to the eager and waiting crowds. Our route is: Long Island, 22nd Street River, N. 20, 22nd Spring Lake, N. J. 30. BLACK PATTI'S EIGHTEENTH SEASON. R. Voolckel, who has been directing the tours of the "Black Parti" musical comedy company for the past seventeen years, and a long-time member of the season will open at Goshen, N. X., on September 8, an dwill continue for the usual forty weeks. The tour embraces only the South, Middle West and Texas, as well as a twelve weeks tour from the Missouri river to California and return to St. Louis, Missouri. The tour includes a class of the Stur and Havlin week stands, including Chicago, Cincinnati, Louisville, Indianapolis, Dayton, Columbus, Pittsburg, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Newark, Brooklyn, Boston. The company this year, as all others, is headed by Madam Sissiterra Jones (the Southland's first fun maker), with distinction of being the greatest singer of her race; "Happy" Juilis Glenn, the Southland's first fun maker, through whose efforts the three-act musical comedy, "Captain Jasper," which was last season's vehicle with this company, will operate last May. Because of this artistic triumph, Manager Voelckel has arranged with Messrs Cook and Glenn to go on a tour of the same piece, in which many novel features will be introduced, together with entirely new and special songs, new stage settings, and the roster of the company includes thir- ty of the best known performers in the world, whose special duties will be to introduce to the Southern folk Europe's latest and most sensual, the 'Turkey Trot' 'Tanger' NOTES OF THE RABBIT'S FOOT COMPANY.

South, and I wish to say to any manager wishing to know whether I am a bad business to Chas, P. Bailey, Arcade theater, Atlanta, Ga.; L. D. Joel, Dixie theater, Atlanta, Ga.; A. B. Barrasso, Memphis, Ill.; L. O. T. Sword, Savoy theater, Chanaogoo, Tenn. I mention these five managers of the best managers of the South, I don't aim to say that they are the only managers of the South, but they are the best. I authorize and would be glad for every performer and manager to write these five managers of the South. I would not like to be badly thought of by performers and managers for what an uncle or friend would do. I will give corporeal Lazzo Whitman Dorsey, and Lady Mrs. Rattana Lazzo Whitman Dorsey. To give correct understanding of how I will give corporeal information, I really owe the people, which she said that I owe, everyone of them, and this is the way that I came. After seven weeks' engagement over the last week of my seventh week, I was called home to join my family to mourn the loss of my sister, Katherine, who died January $1, in Atlantic City, N. J. And as my family wished me to stay at my sister's home, I met many friends to introduce vaudeville there. As I was the first man to introduce vaudeville, I met the man of Birmingham, Ala., did my job. then opened the Lincoln theater with my trio alone, and we played to crowded houses nightly. then he went work at the theater, then New York date at the Linn THE FREEMAN. AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER colin theater. That was when I booked the Thornton trio for $20 for the act. They had stranded in Athens, and I had to work for their food, let alone clothing. I took this on myself to help out a friend of mine, Charlie Anderson, who told me that they were the tickets out of my own pocket, as at that time the man whom I was working for was a green manager, and refused to send tickets to them, well say now, when they arrived they did not have sufficient clothes to appear on the streets, let alone the stage appearance, and I had never seen an adhad plenty of wardrobe I furnished them costumes to dress their act, which made their act look like a bad lover. They had never seen them, and they would have been dressed to death. To make a long story short, the manager of the Lincoln theater booked the act, and I mean their conduct was so bad that they were arrested on their second night, and as the city had seen their public indecency, the patronage fell off so that the During the time that they were booked in there the manager had booked in many closed performances and as there was no other house there at the time, and vaudeville was a place where I could take place with the performers and by me being a real performer, and performing is like a secret order with me, I tried to go to the streets and then I opened the airdome on Second avenue between Twenty-third and Twiney and I went to the streets that I wanted for dimes were hard enough with some of them to carry salt and pepper in their pockets and sprinkle it on the table. I understood that I took all of this on myself and too I was a man without capes and I went to the streets which I thought I owed, being a performer. I also divided every night's receipts between the performers and me or either one of the members of my trifever received a cent of the receipts, and it rained most every night for four weeks, it was then that I saw that I could not do any more, I could not do anything that I could and then I gave to the At that time I went to Mattle Whitman $9.00 and I to pay her, but, I could not afford it. I went to Jamaica and Petrona Lazzo were arrested that night and found guilty for a very disrepeatable crime, and I told the truth. I will have to say that the case was prime against nature, or in other words Miss Mattle Whitman had taken the place of a man and was acting in a disgusting manner, and Lazzo, as she was the wife, I hope that I am not speaking too plainly, and I am not performing performers, but these people are no performers only in one way and that is in prime against nature, and God knows that I am telling the truth. I am not disgusting to the city of Birmingham, Ala. If you think that I am telling a lie, you may write Mattle Crossy, *Happy* and other performers that I am not telling a disgustance upon me at his own disgustance, as these performers were in the court room when they were tried and found guilty, and other performers that I am not telling a disgustance upon me at my home town, as everyone knew that I was the instigator of a murder. I was stacked up and left my home without telling my friends goodbye. And I will say right here that all performers should be aware of this one Mattle Whitman, for she is taking the place of a man, and if inducements can be made, she will take your wife or your partner clean away But all this knocking would not have taken place had he you tried to knock, who is a gentleman in every respect, had I him and his friends take their course, you the big court and as you had already been found guilty in the little court, all the salt in town would not have saved you the big court and as you did a dirty act in from five to fifteen years in the state of Alabama. I tried to be a friend to you, and not listen to the conversation about you and Lazzo as you know that you were the first to be struck by the before a new jungle as it was his first morning to sit in his seat. I let's call our witnesses together, or else ease your hammer down. If you care to know where I am, I I've just closed three successive meetings with the manager for L. T.

All That Remained of Two Hundred Ring Battles Were Stolen From Him—Will Follow Scoundrel after a hard fought contest of twenty rounds, his class was established then and there. Experts who had witnessed the battle agreed that he was one of the most promising of the younger lightweights. Willie came East shortly afterward but the best boys in this locality, amo (By Billy Lewis.) it has been some little time since that familiar figure, Jim Watts, the veteran prizefighter, has not long ago I referred to him as "grand old man," as he likes to refer to himself, calling attention to his splendid past. He was in his home, where he cleaned everything after him. Watts was in his balmy days then, days of him who was a man of one man that allows the pass once in part for the present day. Watts is as proud of his reunions as of his ambition is to retrace three meals were a little irresistible. Had no argument, he was not content as the ravens in but when it came to question of the ring, authority. And, of course, when he was about, the only argument was concerning the ring, consequently the old man war. We also is in Chicago now, where he is through a similar experience to that of this city, in fact he got an excedently high salary in his high school, which got his road. It will be remembered that Billy McClain capped Watts out of a bit of money when he was 18. He didn't McClain. McClain wouldn't go, consequently he let it his duty to cut off Watts' salary as a matter of salvation to him, a turn in a turn that as I will be Chicago has done him a turn that he will long remember. He writes to The Freeman: "Dear Friend: A few lines to let you know I am all right and hope you are all right. I have been here for 26th of June. I will also catch James who stole my teeth. Jones and I am in Columbus, O, in 1911. I met him in South Bend, Ind. I met his teeth. I have been here in Chicago. I have been unable to find her. She has left here headed for Frisco.

Experts who had witnessed the battle agreed that he was one of the most prowling of the young light fighters, but the best boys in this locality, among them, came with a strong arm. It was his ambition to box before a New York crowd for he was smart enough to realize that a good showing would be a big boost, but a suitable opponent could be a big hit. He forced to hop-scotch, around the country. It hutchie's first real opportunity after the Welsh battle came when Ad Wolgast rested in dry dock. Ad selected Wille to meet him in a four-round bout at San Francisco, and while no decision was given per session, he longed to the youngster. Wille followed this up with a ten-round set-to with Joe McCarthy, and upon as championship material and clean dennstrated superiority over the Southern. Takes Title From Wolgast. Then came the fight with Wolgast for the title. Willie gradually wore down the one-time terror of the lightweights until he had him in such bad shape that he save Ad resorted to the tactics of a hard loser and deliberately fouled his opponent. Ad was resisted by Ad Ritchie devoted the next six months to traveling about the country filling the touring car and refusing to be refused to consider challenges and as a result incurred the displeasure of the touring car driver and accused him of being afraid to defend the championship. It is believed that Willie had to be subjected to the championship was subjected at the time had much with the subsequent split with Nolan. Finally, Willie announced to Ad that his credit it must be said did not look for an easy mark. On the contrary he selected Joe the winner of the lightweight division—and proved his class to everyone's complete satisfaction by putting the Mexican away in eleven EVERY FIGHTER MUST HAVE BUNCH OF TRAINERS It is the boxer's business to keep in shape all the time, and if tehy wanted to do that, he would vent them from getting in good shape and staying that way. Two hours' good, hard work every day classifies any attempt to win all times, but if the average boxer was asked to do that much work he would throw up his hands and think the man was a winner. Training with the average boxer is a joke. In fact, they seldom do any real training. Even if they do a little running in the morning, a little shadow boxing, rope skipping and a few rounds of their so-called training, however, consists in loading in the training quarters, and more time is spent in unloading. This is why one man who gets around to the fighters' gymnasium once in awhile timed a fighter who was supposed to be this low did a lot of undressing and dressing and a lot of talking and Joshing with the other scrappers in the ring, and a matter of fact just eleven minutes. That was just one minute more than four rounds of their last give the fighters tips on exercising. They spend hours every day of their last training their stunts, when they lay off, when the varel laying off, they keep "limbered up" by constant exercising. Men who use their stunts during performances don't consider that enough work to keep in shape, but also do so training ever more thoroughly. Many musicians practice four an dime hours every day, keeping up with the fighters' eleven minutes, the scrapper's thing, however, training in the gym does not matter how little work he does. Most of these fellows give that the rubbing is so hard that if does nothing but increase their natural laziness. FOR THE GOOD OF THE BOXING GAME (By Kid Fields.) A few remarks for the good of the box ing game. Badger Athletic Club has gone to the wall, something I have been expecting for some time, for when a man is not experienced in the game, I cannot be too long. I am sorry that the game has been mistreated as long as it was. I have been in the game for some time, and I have been treated for it more than any other place ever boxed, and I have boxed all over this country, before all kinds of clubs, large and small, but Indianapolis caps the climber, and a notion to run a boxing club and do it right, for one has all kinds of people to deal with; but when the motor and man need their business it is not so hard a task. I have run clubs in several cities and it is why I know what I need. I is about to be in charge, I started here and will they will get off in the lead and keep it. I will do all in the lead to push them along. I would not hold the promoter too high and the pro-campaigner not hold the fighter too cheaply, for he makes his living off a good fighter. If a man needs one, he will do it. The men as near as possible and match them so that they will have to fight, and give a run for their money. The men as prosper, as is give the good amounts of the day enough money so they can fight for a winner and if they the fans will win. If two men have same amount then it makes a difference who wins.

MUCH ACTIVITY AMONG HEAVIES Heavy, Light, Bantam and Feather weights Only Masses With Bantam (By James J. Corbett.) There is a renewal of activity in the ranks of the heavyweights that suggests big fellows, and winer season for big jumpsing his ball, Sam Langford and Joe Jeannette threatening to hook up in the maker for the big Madison Square Garden boxing organization, planning to make his big championship, the heavies are most surely coming into their own. Luther McCartney death left the boxing organization in a chaotic state, so far as the whites are concerned, and Gibson has undertaken the task of undertaking our matter. This idea uppermost in his mind is pushing his scheme to bring the best of his talent to the court, then settle the question of supremacy in the goo dold fashioned way. Gibson has already invited Gumbat Smith, Jess McFarland and Jim Flynn to enter the tournament, and will also entertain applicants from less-known records entitle them to consideration. Manager Gibson's elimination series promises to be an improvement over Tom McAirey's tourney of last year, and in the quality of the contests, it will be remembered that Luther McCarty was "selected" champion after victorious tourney was all right as far as it went. But two of the est bst men in the division did not participate for some reason or other, and outpointed McCarty in a ten-round bout, and Gunboat Smith, whose record gave him a claim to equal consideration, entirely. Gibson's tournament will be open to all heavies of standing, and the winner of the final bout will have every right to call himself the white cham- The one big obstacle in the way of cussiness of the proposed tournament deserves attention to revoke their ruling prohibiting referees' decisions. Can you imagine a promoter trying to change the system now in charge in New york, where the only possible way for a boxer to get crowned a vince within a record round limit. He might outpoint his opponent the proverbial mile; but if the other fellow is on his list at the record books as a "no decision" contest, as long as the "no decision" rule holds good it would be useless to attempt another championship in this city. Undisputed champions with clear titles defend if the New york scheme is adopted generally. Never before in the history of the sport has such confusion in the art of grammar at present, an elite short, "no decision" bout is responsible. When referees decide to sift the dead ones, and a boxer with the goods could get to the top on his merits in short order. Nowadays a bum fighter looks as bad as the dead ones in the record books. At the present time there are champions in four divisions of pugilism and two divisions of basketball classes. And if —ack Johnson is now through, the heavyweight title will also be on the market. As the tendency now matches to six and ten rounds and knockouts are naturally infrequent, exacerbating the condition of pugilistic affairs one lobe to predict that within ten years or so so genuine blown-out champions will be about ceased to exist. If anything should happen to prevent the remaining four from enteringships, it is possible they would have no successors, the California legislature decide to kill the twenty-round boxing match that state at the next session. If so, along that line for several years now, boxing champions would be a thing of the past so as to avoid United States of America are Some day I hope the reaction will set in and common sense will help us to have the upper hand all along the line. As goes New York so goes the game, the game would save the game from going to the bow-wows, it behooves them to the set, it behooves them to the rest of the country. Speaking of champions, Jack Johnson has "done gone and let us," Johnson did not advertise in this time—not so you could notice it. Now that he has successfully evaded the federal authorities, it is to be hoped that he will be able to re-enter the sport, or Burg, or Kanchan, or wherever it is he's headed for. He certainly is on want this country. Johnson was a disgrace to pugilism and he indeed presence was a menace to the sport. While in Canada Johnson announced that he had signed to fight in Langley, he did not have a sincerely hope that's true. It would be a splendid thing for the game if Johnson was whipped, and whipped throughout the game, the trick right now. Sam looks the party.

JOHNSON'S WIFE'S NECKLACE SOLD IN CHICAGO JULY 4 The diamond necklace which 'belonged to Jack Johnson's former wife, Etta Durya, was sold July 4 in Chicago for $2,160 at the auction in the office of the State marshal. Johnson bought the necklace in London for $1,950, and when his wife wore it on their return the States cut it off. Chicago seized the duxx would have been about $1,000. BIG SMOKE AND HIS WHITE WIFE PUT ON GRIZZLY BEAR PARIS—Jack Johnson made his first appearance last night in "La Revue thematique" at the Palais de Justice, where Jim Corbett several years ago appeared on the Parisian stage. There was hissing from several of the audience, and a tightly round of the revue, but this appeared unnoticed, and there was applause from a full house. It may be said that Johnson danced at the night Johnson danced "the grizzly bear" with Mrs. Johnson. When the show endened Johnson left the front door, and the front door drove off in a sumptuous automobile. IN OLD PADUKE. Free Excursions From Brookport to Paducah—K. of P.
