STREET RAILWAY EMPLOYES ON THE JOB AGAIN End of Strike Brings Restoration of Traffic Early This Morning EVERYBODY IS HAPPY Tie-up of Service More Than One Week Telling On People's Nerves Kansas City is "sitting pretty" today, with every street car line operating on schedule and every conductor throwing in a smile gratify with each transfer. Kansas City also is outspokenly grateful to the motor car owners who gave their time and the use of their cars to relieve traffic congestion, during the eight days' street car lines were paralyzed. The fees charged for carrying passengers to and from work, in the instances where any charge was made, in no manner more than paid for oil and gasoline used, and for deterioration on the motor cars. The car schedule was resumed at 4:30 o'clock today, making good the promise of the striking motormen, conductors and barmen yesterday when they agreed to the "peace proposal" of F. L. Felch, Department of Labor representative, cit yofficials of both Kansas Citys and representative business men. The plan was the result of an all-night conference. It embodied a promise on the part of the Kansas City Railways company not to discriminate against union workers, regardless of the organization to which they are affiliated, and the reinstitution of men dismissed because of labor affiliation on and since August 1. All disagreements between the company and its employees are to be arbitrated by a board of three, selected by the employee, the company, and jointly. Duly accredited representatives of the employees are to be received by the transportation company in the future, at any time a cause for grievance arises. The agreement automatically "kills" the legislation pending in the Federal court, begun by the company as a defense against eeccesorship tactics contemplated by the municipalities to end the prolonged strike. Conferences between the new organization of the Amalgamated Association of Street and Electric Railway Employees and officials of the Kansas City Railways company for the purpose of setting a wage scale for the carmen and bettering working conditions were being arranged today to thresh out details. FIRST BAPTIST, 11 O'CLOCK. Rev. G. A. Olden of Louisville, Ky., preached from the 14th chapter and 6th verse of Rev. to a crowded house. Every second of the time he preached was filled with the greatest interest and made one's imagination see things just as John saw them on the Isle of Patmos. Rev. Olden also touched upon some more important points vital to us as a race. Miss Wilson of Chicago made a few remarks to the Sunday school. All visitors are invited and welcomed to all the services by the pastor, Rev. Bowren and the members. CARD OF THANKS.

Owing to the street car strike the morning audience was not as large as usual, but the people could not remain away from God's house all day, and the house was filled at the evening service. The pastor in his usual manner preached a sermon at the morning worship that held his audience with that of a magnet. At the evening service the pastor started on a series of sermons on the Lord's prayer and will be continued each Sunday evening until its completion. The sermon Sunday evening "Our Father Who Art in Heaven" was a masterly one and the large audience was simply electrified with eloquence and logic. Those who dismiss themselves from these series of sermons will lose one of the richest attributes of a divine embodiment that has been their opportunity to hear. There were several of the Caucasian race present Sunday evening who have in mind to hear all of these special sermons. Some were added to the church at the close of the day's work for the Master. Mrs. M. T. Hutchins, the estimable wife of Lawyer Hutchins of Tulsa, Okla, is Visiting Mr. and Mrs. Geo White, 2031 N. Third St. Mrs. Hutchins is a cousin of Mrs. White.

The commissioners of this city look upon the street railway system as a public utility in which the city has partnership interest, and they recognize the right of the people to street car service. Therefore, Commissioners Chapman, Bergs, Little, Brown and Mayor Mendenhall are turning everything to bring about a peaceable and honorable settlement of the strike in the interest of the public and with due regard to the rights of both the striking carmen and the railway company. Another thing that is observed is that the Kansas City, Kas, commissioners are taking the lead in the matter, going into it earnestly and fearlessly, and without playing politics or attempting to curry favor with any political bosses. A letter from Mrs. Mary Green, now in Colorado, tells how she enjoys reading the Advocate and how she is enjoying her visit. MING DAY" THE Ice, 11:00 A. M. Choir The Reading.

D. A. Holmes, the popular pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Temple, will preach. At this service the famous Alabama quartet will sing several numbers, including songs that our fathers and mothers sang way back in anti-bellum days. The church choir has arranged special music for all day, which will add in a large measure for the spiritual essence of the day's religious feast. The pastor will fill his pulpit at 8 p. m. with a continuation of his sermons on the Lord's Prayer. Those who are brought to the church in vehicles will be served dinner free and taken back to their homes whenever they feel like going. A committee appointed by the church has distributed an abundance of literature inviting the general public and all denominations to worship with them at one or all of the services and a great day is expected in Zion this Lord's day. BIBLE CLASS St. Matthews' Neighborhood Bible class had another large meeting at Mr. and Mrs. Rice's. Only the 12th chapter of Romans was discussed. It was a fine guide for Christians to return good for evil, and God will mete out vengeance. Mrs. and Miss Jefferson were received as members. Mrs. Jefferson is fine in the scriptures. Miss Clark of Lawrence made appropriate remarks. The next meeting will be at Mrs. Gardner's, 713 Everett, on Wednesday, August 22, 7 to 8 p.m. Lesson, Rom., 13-14. Everyone come, as Mr. Gardner is sick and enjoys the Bible wrk so much. The Bible class closes with the greatest of all prayers, the Lord's prayer. Rev. Ava Royston preached well Wednesday night at Metropolitan. The infant of Mrs. Tillman, who lives on Everett avenue, was quite sick this week. ATTY. FOREST B. ANDERSON. ANOTHER LAWYER, IN THE FIELD. Mr. Forrest B. Anderson who for the last year and six months has been associated with Rev. McNeal in the real estate business was recently admitted to the practice of law in this state and has bought the property at 529 State avenue where he will practice law and do a general real estate business. Mr. Anderson-was born at Lafayette county, Mo., went to Boston, 1000 Mass., at a very early age where he made his home for 12 years, received his education in the public schools and the Normal school of that state, working days and studying at night. He studied law for three years in the Y. M. C. A. Law School, also in the office of Senator Chas. Innis, finished in 1913, coming to Kansas in 1915 in October with strong letters of references from high state officials and some of the leading colored citizens of Boston. He likes Kansas and can see a great future for the colored youth. He also wishes to announce the dissolution of the real estate partnership of McNeal & Anderson. We predict for Lawyer Anderson a bright future in his profession, also in the business he has been so successfully engaged in for the past eighteen months. OH, YOU WATERMELON Kansas Officer Arreata Two Negroes While Aboard Train. Unusually large watermelons carried by two Negroes attracted the attention of a special officer for Roy Hubbard, assistant attorney general of Kansas, and when the Negroes got aboard a train at the Union Station the officer took a seat behind them. When the train reached Lawrence, Kas, the Negroes were arrested. The watermelons were found to contain jugs of whisky. The Negroes, J. M. and Felix Vick, were fired $200 and sentenced to thirty days in jail each by Police Judgg Herrod yesterday. The prisoners admitted placing the whisky in the melons and said they were taking it to their friends at Hutchinson, Kansas. SIXTY EIGHT RIOT INDICTMENTS SIXTY EIGHT RIOT INDICTMENTS Charges Against East St. Louisans Include Murder and Arson Include Murder and Arson. Belleville, III., Aug. 14. - Slaty-light indictments against 105 persons, the charges including murder, arson, conspiracy, rioting and assault to murder, were returned by the grand jury here today, which has been investigating the race riots in East St. Louis on July 1 to 3. A special report accompanying the indictments goes into the history of the riots, and gives what is believed to have been conditions causing the trouble, and recommending remedies to prevent such lawlessness in the future. Judge George A. Crow of the circuit court of St. Clair county, before whom the report was made, announced the question of bond for any persons who might be arrested would not be discussed until tomorrow. Attorney General Edward F. Brunold age of Illinois, under whom the investigation has been conducted, arrived in Belleville today. THEY'SAY- "The lady who spoke at a certain church Sunday night was a pretty good talker, but some things she said were not appropriate for Sunday night service but would have been better said at a private lecture for women"; and the real Christian women of our race of our city did not need that advice. One of our male school teachers is building one of the prettiest part stone bungalows in town of colored or white. It is also on our finest street—Washington Boulevard, and in the popular block where our people already have three of the finest newly built modern houses in our city. Also have some owning 75 feet in this block. Success to this teacher. The largest amount ever raised in the shortest time in this city was the record breaking soliciting by our twenty-one Red Cross workers. Church rallies usually solicit from four to six weeks, but these workers solicited only one week, and two of them had over $100 a piece in that short time. The real giving to churches, according to the Bible, is what we give direct from our own means. The greatest amount ever given in this way, and not solicited, was when Mr. S. H. Randolph gave, $25, and Mrs. M. C. Matthews gave a plate-glass door, costing over $35. SAY, NEIGHBOR, HAVE YOU Joined the American Woodmen?

And here let me say—he showed that he was "of stirlingworth," and the thoughts expressed, were accepted because of their worldworth and soundness. They become of increased importance, when you think of the late feeling and action towards the source of them. These two incidents are enough to awaken those who are inclined to think—to real action along "The Line of Reason." These two incidents, in the "melting pot of humanity," that is now seething, are really and truly race marks, and they are worthy ones too, they show what it means to love one's race and to appreciate and elevate it, instead of despising and being ashamed of one's self and source. These incidents speak in loud tones, and sound the plain truth. "That if self-esteem, self-respect, pride of race and blood, love, respect, civic, industrial and economic advancement are to be found anywhere near, or in connection with us—they must have their rise, among and in and of OUR SELVES.

(Will see you again) UNCER IKE BRADLEY. KANSAS CITY, KANSAS. Metropolitan Temple Many salmts and sinners met at this church to listen to their interesting services. At 11 a. m. the pastor spoke fervently from Colosians 15:20, and some of his auditors were converted and united with the church. At night, more joined. In the financial report of the day, it was found that Mr. D. W. White, another charter member, had secured $100, already promised to the church by Judge Brady; $50 from Congressman Little, and other promises to the church-amounting to $187.17. This Sunday, August 19, is said to positively close the rally. It is said by some, if a prize is given, Mr. J. J Thomas, who had $2, will get it, as he had the largest amount first on the first named for the close of the rally. They have about secured the amount asked for, and think it will be over $1,000. It is said "the harmonious singing of the congregation and choir of the sweet old songs," "Jesus Paul the Power of Jesus' Name," etc., caused sinners at this church to take a stand for Christ." The publicity committees invites everyone to the Temple of Sunday, at 11 a. m., to witness baptismal services; also at night, by request of Pastor D. A. Holmes, D. D. Note: The Metropolitan members voted especial thanks to Col. E. C. Little, Judge Brady and all others who helped them in their rally. Mrs. Maud Curry, 940 Nebraska avenue, and a host of friends gave a surprise plate shower on Mrs. Nettie Washington at her cozy home, $25 New Jersey avenue. Many beautiful plates were recieved. Mrs. Mary Allen of Ottawa, Kas, sent a beautiful hand painted plate. All enjoyed a delightful evening. Refreshments were served in abundance. Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Long have returned from visiting their sister mother at Fort Scott. She was a little better. Miss K. Alexander, who has been sick at the Y. W. C. A. is better. Coming, the Woman Champ T New York, Aug. 13.—The age of women is not only coming, but it's well on the way. If you do not believe this statement just cast your eye over the far corners of the earth. In England the women are getting the vote. In Russia they have pushed the men out of the limelight in the war and are taking up the fighting where the Cosacks left off. Here in America the girls are not only getting ready to take the vote, but as well they've pushed the men right off the tennis map. Here are the two culprits—Mary Browne and Molla Ejuistedt—whose antics on the tennis court have completely overshadowed the work of the players who represent the stiffer sex. Miss Browns came all the way from California to show the world that though she's one of the most re- markable girl athletes that ever trod the a whit better than the best racket wi To date Miss Browne has been high of the U.

To date Miss Browne has been highly successful in upholding the honor of the U. S. A against the Norwegian invader. It's hardly right to use the word invader in connection with Miss Bjurstedt, either, for in the three seasons that she has played in this country the plucky Norse girl has, boy hor skill, her gameness, and her sportsmanship, won the intense admiration of every American follower of lawn tennis. Miss Browne and Miss Bjurstedt will meet again in a singles match which will be a feature of the tournament of the Crescent Athletic club, at Bay Ridge, in aid of the United States Lawn Tennis Association Ambulance Fund. Every time they have met this summer these super-champion girls have fought out a battle-that held the onlookers spellbound. Miss Browne is a slow started, but she comes like the Empire State Express in that third set. Miss Bjurstedt, on the other hand, is on her game from the First service, and, though not quite as brilliant as her American rival, her play is steadier all the way. SEEDS Emma Upton Vaughn.

A group of ladles were talking of the sweaters being knitted for the soldier boys, and one lady said she had been told that the boys made fun of them. Kathodeacon had been thinking of what he was saying he could not have come nearer the truth. In youth poverty is an inconvenience; in old age it is a horror. There was a very interesting cut on the front page of Tuesday's Globe of the royalty of Europe. The cut was made from a photograph taken at the great celebration of Queen Victoria's birthday over twenty years ago. One of the most striking things about it is the great likeness between the queen and her oldest daughter, who also bore her name. As the Kaiserin of German this factless lady incurred the displeasure of her husband's subjects by removing the furniture, which had stood for nearly a century untouched, from the bedroom formerly occupied by their idolized Queen Louise. They are not beautiful, these royal personages, but then who ever saw a group photograph that did not make each individual look like sin? But there is really no beauty in the family except such as the younger members may have inherited from "The Sea King's daughter from over the sea," the dowager Queen Alexandria.

One warm day Deacon Gildroys' auto stuck fast just as it was half in and half out of the garage. He called to Chapple Stareleigh who was passing, and Chapple, who is of slighter build than the deacon, slipped in past the machine and began to push at the rear end. They worked for some time and then the deacon straightened up and exclaimed: "Seems like the darned-thing just won't go in." "Go in!" exploded Chapple, "I thought you were trying to get the dod-gasted thing out!" I have learned that a friend that is worth the having is one that will hurt you now and then.

Elizabeth Prentiss; If you coul once make up your mind never to undertake more work of any sort than you can carry on calmly, quietly, without hurry or flurry, and the instant you feel yourself growing nervous and like one out of breath, would stop and take breath, you would find this simple common sense rule doing for you what no prayers or tears could ever accomplish.

Tennyson probably thought he was putting it strongly when he wrote, "And I hold the gray barbarian lower than the Christian child;" but most Americans hold the gray Christian, too, of less importance than the child. Which may be the why of so many undisciplined young people just now. Queen Victoria outranked the Prince Consort, her cousin husband. The fact ranked in Albert's mind and made their early wedded life full of spots. On one such occasion Albert went to his private apartments and locked the door. Victoria followed and tried the door. "Let me in," she called. "Does the Queen command it?" asked the Prince sarcastically. "No, your wife implores it," answered the Queen. The door was instantly unlocked. Queen Victoria was queen in her own right, but after her death Alexandria, Princess of Wales, became queen only because she was the wife Edward VII, a fact of which he was once mean enough to remind her. "You are not queen in the sense that my mother was," he said. The other evening the Dandelion Person was trying to make Chapple Stareleigh think she was well informed. Chapple had mentioned Roosevelt admiringly. "That old thing!" she exclaimed, "Why, he's a back number. He has lost all his money and friends, you know." "I don't know," retorted Chapple, "what you mean?" "Why," said the Dandelion Person, with an sir, "I read some time ago that he had to clean out stables for a living.

The photograph shows him just after he had placed his tribute in position at the foot of the pedestal. I. C. VIADUCT IS NEEDED BY TWO KANSAS CITY'S More Business Men Express Opinions On Advisability of Purchase Business men today expressed their appreciation to The Globe of its effort to ascertain the depth of sentiment toward the proposed purchase of the Inter-City viaduct. As stated yesterday, The Globe personally interviewed more than 200 manufacturers and merchants in the North section of the city, which is most vitally concerned, and of those only five have voiced their disapproval of the proposal. The Globe believes merchants and business men along the river front and Minnesota avenue realize the life of their section depends on the purchase and that other sections of the city which have commercial outlets paid for by the city at large are broadguaged enough to be for the purchase plan. The Globe prints today another installment of the interviews it obtained. Read what these parsons have to say: B. A. Nugent, of Fasenmyer & Nugent, clothiers (property, owner), 500 Minnesota avenue: "The cities ought to buy the viaduct if it can be acquired at a fair price. There should be no difficulty in getting together on a proposition that would be of advantage to both. If the viaduct is worth $1,500,000, it might be worth a little more, or a little less. We need the viaduct and the company needs a buyer." John Paps, owner of the O. R. Cafe, 501 Minnesota avenue (property owner): "The two cities should own the viaduct, as they should own all the bridges and highways. About the value, I know nothing—that is for those who know to decide." James Mufich, clothing, 507 Minnesota avenue (property owner). "The cities ought to buy the viaduct. It is a good thing for the avenue and the city, if we have the money to pay for it. I am for buying it right." G. W. Manley, manager of the Gate City Grocery Company, 503 Minnesota avenue: "A mighty good thing it would be for both cities, and I am for buying it at its actual value." Fred Harwood, barber shop, 509 Minnesota avenue (property owner): "I am in favor of buying the viaduct and having full control of it, and I am also in favor of the city owning the street car lines—right now. What we should pay for it would be determined by its actual value." William Frey, manager White House Meat Market, 510 Minnesota avenue: "It would be a great help for both cities to buy it. I have not informed myself sufficiently to say what we should pay." W. A. Fisher, manager Bathurst Stove Company, 514 Minnesota avenue: "It would be a benefit to everybody. This firm has stores in both cities and the viaduct makes possible quick transit. I think, however, it is worth about half what the owners are asking for it. I wouldn't want to pay more than $1,500,000." G. P. Economopoulos, Fifth Street Shining Parlor and Hat Works, 502 Minnesota avenue (property owner): "Buy it is my idea. It would be a good thing for all. The price I'll leave to the city officials." C. I. Lee, jeweler, 516 Minnesota avenue (property owner): "There is no question but the two cities ought to buy the viaduct. Minnesota avenue and the north half of the city needs it badly. The whole city needs it. An appraisement should be made by experts to arrive at its value. I don't believe in beating the owners out of it." J. E. Colum, of the Collium Commerce Company, clothing and furnishings, 521 Minnesota avenue (property owner): "It would be all right to buy it, a good thing to both cities, and I believe they should get together and buy it." Charles Martin, of the Haskell-Martin Hardware Company, 522 Minnesota avenue (property owner): "We ought first to have an assurance from the Missouri side that they will take care of their end of it, otherwise it would be useless to talk about buying it. I consider the valuation set on it a fair one. If it can be shown that it is worth more, I would be willing to consider it." R. W. Van Peyma, sporting goods, 525 Minnesota avenue (property owner): "I am with Harry Mendenhall on the viaduct proposition. I believe the city ought to own it if we can buy it right." William Poyser, son of head of the Poyser Dry Goods Company, 526-528 Minnesota avenue (property owner): "I am not strong on the purchase of the viaduct. It makes it too easy for people to go over to the other city. Close it up and keep the people at home more." Harry Cox, abstractor, 529 Minnesota avenue (property owner): "Buy the viaduct—it is a good thing. I am not posted on its value, however." P. R. Oviatt, of the Oviatt Shoe Company, 530 Minnesota avenue (property owner): "The proper thing is to buy the viaduct. I am not certain as to its value, but we should pay a price that is fair, probably a little more than has been offered." John Comfort, or Daniels & Comfort, undertakers, 517 Minnesota avenue (property owner): "I think we had better close up the viaduct and make it unanimous. I don't know what is the matter, with those Missouri side people that they don't keep up their end. We should have purchased the Intercity viaduct before all the others were closed. I don't know what it is, worth, but I know they put a lot of money into the intercity viaduct. The two cities ought to buy it and make it free. There never should be a toll viaduct permitted between these two big cities. It looks small. Buy it right, I say." F. T. Kassell, of the Kassell Jewelry Company, 548 Minnesota avenue: "It would be a pretty good thing for both cities, though I think we'd have to charge toll to traffic for the upkeep, and to prevent it becoming a speedway. But I am for buying it at a fair price." George Bemarkt, of the West Side-Foundry, Third street and Oakland avenue (property owner): "I am for it as long as we can buy it without having to pay for wind or watered stock. It is a great convenience, especially to this part of the city, and we should acquire it as soon as possible at a price that is fair to both parties." V. Faris, of the Solomon Valley Milling Company, 901 North Third street (property owner): "We've always thought it would be a great thing if the two cities could buy the vladuct, and we've wondered why they did not do it. I've never given a thought to the value of the structure, but I see no reason why we should not buy it right, as I believe the owners are willing to sell it at a reasonable price." P. S. Baltz, secretary-treasurer Western Terra Cottin Works, foot of Franklin avenue (property owner): "It would be the greatest thing that could happen if the cities would buy the vladuct. It would be valuable from a commercial standpoint as well as a convenience to the people as a highway." PUBLICATION NOTICE In the District Court of Wyandotte County, Kansas. Lorin G. Sanford.
