M. E. C scoe Simm President Wilson is making a determined stand "to compel legislative subordination to executive decree," the second such attempt in the history of the country, declares Representative Simeon D. Fess. The first such effort, he says, was made by President Andrew Johnson, and he draws this comparison: "President Wilson's swing around the circle is not the first of its kind. Andrew Johnson in his contest with Congress was the first instance where the executive undertook to compel legislative subordination to executive decree. "After a contest which was marked with some bitterness as displayed in public utterances on both sides and the exercise of the veto power quite freely, President Johnson, in the city of Washington, declared he would carry the contest to the country. In September, 1867, just 52 years ago, he started on his famous trip making speeches to great crowds on the way. Since President Wilson left Washington I have re-read the reported utterances of President Johnson. He referred to Congress as actuated by personal plique, sectional bitterness and ignorant prejudice. His language was caustic and his statement dogmatic. He spoke with the air of assurance of his ground that at times approached egotism if not arrogance. He assured the country that his position must win because he was right. At Chicago he minimized the opposition and referred to opponents, some as ignorant of the real issue and others disloyal to the best interests of their country. "Everywhere he travelled he was greeted by great crowds which at places were widely demonstrative. His utterances increased in acrimony with the progress of the tour. The friends of the President, convinced of the popular justification of his position, anxiously pushed him forward as the standard bearer of their views. "Thus far the two famous swings around the circle" are not unlike except Johnson's contest was with the House of Representatives on the question of that body's authority over the qualifications over elections of its own members, which the House claimed belonged to it. "On the other hand President Wilson's contest is with the Senate over the part to be played by that body in the making of treaties. "In the Johnson case the difference reached the point of extreme bitterness before it was taken to the people." having each citizen give his support to this movement which is for the betterment of conditions for the working people, will give you the following data: In an industrial enterprise in this city employing about 3500 men, during August 1919—600 or about 18 percent of the workmen were injured, in most cases on account of their own carelessness. --- Two Convicted in Chicago Riot. (By the Associated Negro Press.) Chicago, Ill., Sept. 22.—Walter Colvin, 16, 3908 South Dearborn street, and Charles Johnson, 18, 53 West Thirty-sixth street, two Colored boys were sentenced to life imprisonment by a verdict of a jury in Judge Sabath's court last night in connection with the recent race riots. The verdict marked the first conviction in the prosecution of riot cases. Several Colored men were acquitted. (By Associated Negro Press.) (By Associated Negro Press.) Chicago, Sept. 24—Max Bauer, white, 125 South Halsted street, the district which fomented much of the strife during the race riot, exhibited in a most disgraceful way his virtuous "superior race" characteristics at a movie theatre, when he brazenly and noyed beautiful little Margaret Baker Colored, ten years old. The little girl rushed out of the theatre crying, and told several Colored men what had happened. The men found Bauer in a hurry and gave him a severe beating. Bauer was then arrested, and be fore Judge Hayes, on a charge of disorder conduct, was fined $50 and costs. Nothing was done to the men who administered the beating. Bauer is over fifty years old. DELIVERS REMARKABLE ADDRES Vast Audience in Kansas City, Kas Swept By the Matchless Oratory of America's Foremost Publicist. 1400 PEOPLE HEAR HIM Colonel Roscoe Conkling Simmons the race's greatest orator delivered in Kansas City, Kas., at the beautiful and spacious First A. M. E. Church before an audience that taxed the capacity of that great building, one of the most eloquent and remarkable speeches of his career. For three hours he held his audience magnetized by his wonderful portrayal of the history and achievement of the race and incidents and happenings upon the battlefields of France where he was sent by the government to cheer and inspire the black boys to more heroic endeavor. When Mr. Simmons said: "President Wilson says that the American people are for the League of Nations, but I am here to say as a representative of 13,000,000 loyal Americans as the ever knew that not one of that number is for the League of Nations," he precipitated an ovation that fullw five minutes, men and women screaming at the top of their voices, waving their handkerchiefs, throwing their hats and umbrellas in the air and again when he told of finding the unmarked grave of an unknown Negro soldier upon the battlefields of France he has his audience bathed in tears. Colonel Simmons is really a great orator and Kansas City, Missouri, is aching for an opportunity to give him an audience of 10,000 people in Convention Hall which may be possible during the early days of November. Col Simmons left for Phoenix, Ariz. where he begins a series of twenty lectures along the Pacific Coast, extending to Vancouver. The Sun says "Hats off to Col. Roscoe C. Simmons." BETTERMENT OF SOCIAL AND LIVING CONDITIONS. By James C. W. Andrews. There is a movement on foot in this country and particularly in the Middle West to educate the people in the prevention of accidents, to teach them to be more careful, not only for their own safety but also for the safety and welfare of their fellow workmen. This movement should have the support of all who are interested in the betterment of living and social conditions; a man who is away from work on account of some injury, is in many cases, unable to properly provide for his family as his income is very small or he has no income, also the average man who is unable to work on account of injury is not so badly hurt that he is confined to the bed, therefore he is practically idle and we all know that idle hands will find mischief. Very few of us realize the great number of accidents which are happening daily in our industries, so to impress upon you the necessity of KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 27. 1919.

All of the large concerns of Kansas City are making a strong effort to have all machinery properly safeguarded, which no doubt will prevent some accidents, but to accomplish the desired results the prevention of accidents must be brought before the peeple by persons who are interested in public welfare, not only from this point of view but also from others. TRAFFIC COP NEEDED. A Crying Necessity at 18th and Wood land. School Children Menaced Every Day By Heavy Traffic. To any one who stops for a moment at the corner of 18th and Woodland during the recess and dismissal of the Attucks School, half block south will immediately see the imperative necessity of a crossing officer at this corner, where quite a few narrow escapes have already been had by children going to and from school. The Board of Education should not wait until two or three children have been killed or mutilated before asking the police commissioners to take cognizance of this dangerous corner but should act AT ONCE. Let parent-teachers' clubs of this school give this matter immediate attention. TRAIN HIT A DINING CAR Five Negro Cooks and Waiters Were Injured at Leavenworth. Leavenworth, Kas. Sept. 24.—A southbound Missouri Pacific passenger train side-swiped the dining car of a northbound train at a siding on the Fort Leavenworth Reservation early Wednesday, wrecking the diner and injuring five of the crew, all Negroes. Leon Hanners, a cook, was injured internally and may die. A cook named Ward and three waiters named Mosby, Givens and Mormon were less dangerously injured. The locomotive of the southbound train was thrown from the track and plunged down the bank to the edge of the Missouri River. Passengers were badly shaken up, but noon was injured.

KANSAS CONFERENCE IN SES SION. The Kansas Annual Conference comprising all of Kansas and Nebraska opened it annual session at the First A. M. E. Church, 8th and Nebraska, last Wednesday morning at 9:00 o'clock. The annual sermon was preached by Rev. W. C. Williams, D.D., of Omaha, Neb., and it was a splendid effort on the part of this divine. After the administering of the sacrament and the usual opening ceremony the report for the various district was begun. On Wednesday night the public reception was welcoming addresses and responses was held before a capacity audience. Thursday night was Educational night. The principal address was delivered by Governor Henry J. Allen whose subject was "Christian Education." On Friday night Missionary and Christian Endeavor excursises were held. Many distinguished representatives of the church are in attendance among whom is Dr. J. C. C. Caldwell. PRINCIPAL H. L. COX VICIOUSLY ASSAULTED. Prof. H. L. Cox, the splendid principal of Wendell Phillips School, Howard and Vine streets, was savagely assaulted with a hatchet by one John Watson who lives next door to him, apparently without provocation. Prof. Cox had advised Edwina Williams the step-daughters of Watson to make strenuous effort to continue her education by attending some college or university as she had just finished Lincoln High School this spring. Miss Williams has been quite ill and Prof. Cox had gone over to her home and was standing on the front porch talking to her at the time the assault was made. He had just remarked, "I shall be glad to help you in any way to enter one of the higher institutions of learning," when he alleged her mother who was standing just inside the door resented his suggestion by saying, "Get away from here, we don't need any of your help or advice either," and then her husband pushed her aside, rushed out of the door, and said, "Let me at the black —" and struck him several times with the heavy instrument which Prof. Cox things was a tatchet inflicting several slight wounds. Prof. Cox has had a warrant issued for Watson but he has not been apprehended as we go to press.

General Manager TED C. KANS. Kansas SAULT ION K. C. as City, K (By the Associated Negro Press). Various members of the United States Senate and House of Representatives are manifesting deep concern in the future welfare of the American people, all of them. The Associated Negro Press is prepared to report that important steps will be taken by Congress in a short time in a serious effort to work out the problems of race adjustment. The subject will be approached from an economic, rather than a sentimental, viewpoint, as on this basis every section of the country, including the South, is greatly concerned at this time. With immigration restricted, and 3,000,000 foreigners clamoring for passports to return to their native land, with strikes shooting up everywhere like skyrockets on the Fourth of July, the industrial conditions are in an alarming state, conservative thinkers admit. Business advancement among Colored people in every section is most noticeably on the increase, denoting a spirit of understanding and unity never before approached, and a measure of wealth at this time that to many is quite amazing. Race publications have taken masterly lead in holding public opinion and distributing news, and their products are being read not only by hundreds of thousands within the Race, but by thousands of whites. Daily newspapers and magazines are giving most unusual space to news and editorial opinion on matters affecting Colored people throughout the world. A new era of Racial progress has dawned and is moving with marvelous rapidity. Dr. J. R. Ransom, the acknowledged leader of the Kansas Conference and one of the truest friends and greatest leaders Kansas has ever known.

Paris, Ky., Sept. 10.—Many of the older residents of Paris, as well as those throughout the State, will remember Blind Tom." the musical phenomenon of half a century ago. Born blind and a slave of the Bedinger family of Bourbon county, at an early age he developed most wonderful musical accomplishments and before he had reached his majority had made a tour of practically every State in the Union and had appeared before a number of the crowned heads of Europe. On account of his blindness and from the account that he was half-witted, he was made a pet by the members of his master's household, and spent most of his time playing about the spacious lawn of the old-fashioned homestead. A young daughter of the Bedinger family was especially attached to the little fellow through a feeling of sympathy, and being an accomplished musician herself she would allow him to curl at her feet on the floor and listen with rapt attention to her performances on the piano. One day while the family were at dinner they heard strains from the pianc emanating from the parlor, and upon investigating were surprised to find young Tom seated on the stool and skillfully playing a number of difficult compositions, which his young mistress had previously been practicing. It soon developed that they had discovered a most wonderful prodigy and the fame of the young Negro spread about the county and state, and numerous prominent musicians called at the home to investigate and went away dumbfounded. Not long afterward he was taken in charge by a company organized in Cincinnati, and during the next few years, or until his death, thousands of persons in this country and foreign lands were electrified by his wonderful performances. Traits Inherited. It developed recently that a young grandnephew of "Blind Tom" has inherited all his grand uncle's marvelous talents, and if anything is more proficient. The young boy is a son of a woman employed as a cook by a wealthy farmer of this county. He is nine years of age and his duties have been that of a chore boy about the house and farm. Hearing the lady of the house playing upon the piano recently, he went into the parlor and asked if she would allow him to play. In a spirit of fun she told him he might try his hand, and to her immeasure surprise he sat down and played almost perfectly every piece that she had previously played. Other members of the family were called in and many difficult compositions of the old masters were played by them, to be in turn played by the little fellow. He knows not one note from another, and while playing closes his eyes and raises his head as though searching from inspiration from on high. Following each piece he plays he applauds himself by a vigorous clapping of his hands. The family recently gave a reception, at which a number of the most prominent musicians of the county were present. Every conceivable piece of music that could be thought of were played by them, both on the piano and violin, only to be repeated by the young prodigy on the piano in a more finished manner. As a crucial test a young composer of Paris rendered a piece of his own composition which had never been played in public before, which the young fellow repeated without a flaw. it is planned to have him give a performance in public in the near future, as a preclude to a tour of the principal cities. Mrs. Bettie Davis, 1709 Michigan Ave., appreciates very much the promptness with which the payment of her claim on account of the death of her brother, Bill Turner, was made by the American Woodmen. Neighbor Emmett McFadden, 1728 Michigan Ave., who drew from the Slinking fund $200.00 for disability is in Denver, Colo., and reports that he is regaining his health. Join the Woodmen and when your physical condition breaks down, we will see that you receive disability claim to help build your old frame up and become a live wire again. W. A.

The Second Christian Church, 24th street and Woodland avenue, is planning to hold a series of evangelistic meetings, beginning Sunday, October 5, 1919. The Church will be assisted by Rev. B. C. Calvert of Jackson, Miss., who will conduct the meetings. Mr. Calvert is a young man and it is reported he has proven himself to be both a successful pastor and evangelist. He has given much of his ministerial life to evangelistic work. He is a student of the Bible, men and conditions and is a Gospel preacher. He delights in preaching the Gospel to the people and not something about the people. He makes no claims of being a "Gospel Cyclone," "Sin Killer," "Pulpit Clown" or "Acrobat," but he does preach as a live man with a live message for living people. Prof. S. A. Scott will have charge of the choir and with other singers is preparing to furnish the music for the meetings, and promises they will do their best. Each department of the church is directing its efforts to the cause of the meeting. It will not be a denominational meeting, and we ask the prayers, moral influence, Chris all Christians. We earnestly and sincerely invite the unconverted and hope they will be persuaded to come, and not only to come, but be persuaded to become Christians. The meetings will be for all. WILLIAM ALPHIN.

MATTJOY SELECTED AS LEADER OF NEGRO DEMOCRACY. THOM PY DE MILHER KOS HON. J. J. MATTJOY President of the Negro Democratic. Organization of this City also Probation Officer of Jackson County and one of the foremost crators of his race in Missouri. MATTJOY SELECTED AS LEADER OF NEGRO DEMOCRACY. Jno. L. F. Talton, Chairman. At a meeting of Negro Democrats held at the home of Prof. John L. F. Talton, 1215 Vine St. September 10, 1919, Mr. J. J. Mattjoy was unanimously chosen the leader of Negro democrats of aKansas City. There were between fifty and sixty present and after adjournment, they left in a body and waited upon Judge Casimer J. Welch at his court room and express to him the unanimous election of Mr. J. J. Mattjoy as their leader. all classes of men feel at home with him. Dr. William J. Thompson, whom Mattjoy supplanted has never been popular with the boys. They never feel at home with him. He is a silkstocking and class man. He tries to play the part of a Kaiser and boss. The Negroes won't stand for anything like that. They have been deserting Thompson for more than a year, clamoring for a leader. Mr. Mattjoy arrived in the city on or about July 4th, 116, and immediately demonstrated his sterling worth as a leader, accomplishing the almost impossible by piling up substantial ma- Judge Welch heartily agreeing in their choice as a leader, stated that they had a perfect right to select Mr. Mattjoy as their leader and farther expressed a great friendship for Mr. Mattjoy. Mr. Mattjoy is a life long democrat. He has a wide acquaintance with democrats, both locally and nationally. He comes highly recommended by Governor Gardner. He worked for the success of the democrat ticket in St. Louis, the governor's home, thus forming a close acquaintance and friendship of the Governor. Mr. Mattjoy is a man of fine personal appearance, well educated, and speaks well and fluently three differ ent languages, and often employed by the courts as an interpreter. Mr. Mattjoy is a good mixer which is the chief characteristic of a good leader, and as a race man can not be excelled, being for his people, first, last and always. Mr. Mattjoy is strictly honest and straight forward in his edalings, he has a common touch and Mrs. W. R. Roberts who has been visiting her cousin, Mrs. Josephine Jackson of 2111 Campbell Street, and other relatives left for her home in Portland, Ore., this week after a most relightful stay during which she was the recipient of many social attentions, auto rides, etc. She will stop in Denver en route home. Mrs. Nellie E. Young left last week for Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, where she entered William Young in school. William is the son of Mr. Young. Before returning home Mrs. Young will spend a few days in Chicago. Mrs. Young was delighted with her visit at Tuskegee and describes it as being the most beautiful place she has ever visited. Miss Susie E. Johnson left for Detroit, Mich. Thursday, September 17, and was married September 20, to Mr. Lemon Vaden of that city. Before leaving she was entertained by Mrs. Carrie Barnett of 2017 Olive Street, with a delightful party. And on Wednesday evening by Mrs. Louise Dodson, 2402 Flora Avenue. The friends of Mrs. Vaden all wish her much success. In loving memory of our dear mother, Nannie Walls Washington, who passed away one year ago September 28, 1918: Rest in peace dear mother, Forget you, we never will; We always did truly love you And always love you still. We did all that was in our power And yet in vain you were called away No more with us to stay. Rest in peace dear mother, One we loved has passed away You are gone but not forgotten We think of you every day. Sadly missed by Janie Spruell, Viola Patterson. Daughters. Alphonse Ferguson, Grandson. MATTJOY Organization of this City also Probate of the foremost orators of his race Dr. William J. Thompkins, whom Mattjtoy supplanted has never been popular with the boys. They never feel at home with him. He is a silkstocking and class man. He trys to play the part of a Kaiser and boss. The Negroes won't stand for anything like that. They have been deserting Thompkins for more than a year, clamoring for a leader. Mr. Mattjtoy arrived in the city on or about July 4th, 116, and immediately demonstrated his sterling worth as a leader, accomplishing the almost impossible by piling up substantial majorities in nearly all of the thickly populated Negro wards, and in recognition of these valuable services without his knowledge or consent, he as afore said, has been chosen as the Negro Democrat leader of Kansas City. The campaigns are fast coming on and we need all the votes we can get, so we want a leader who is a vote getter, not one who is a vote looser. Since then a meeting was held at the Court room of Judge Casimer Welch at which 116 Negro Democrats were present and the action of the meeting at Prof. Talton's residence was ratified. Several prominent white democrats were present at which time officers were elected as follows. J. J. Mattjoy, President. John Bibbs, Vice President. W. C. Mallory, Secretary. J. L. F. Talton, Treasurer. Ben Swan, Sgt at Arms. Although unanimously elected, Mr. Mattjoy served notice that he would resign at the next meeting in favor of some older Kansas Cityan though it is doubtful if the men will accept it. --- THE KANSAS CITY SUN, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1919 IN MEMORIAM.

SCOTT'S OFFICIAL HISTORY OF THE AMERICAN NEGRO IN THE WORLD WAR. ‘The Sun is in receipt of a copy of Scott's official history of the Ameri. can Negro in the World War, which it takes great pleasure in commending to its myriad readers, There were but a few persons who Kept closely im touch with the war records, and no man in America knew more facts or was better prepared to write such a book than Mr. Emmett J, Scott, who for two years was con- fidential advisor to the Secretary of War. ‘This book contains the stirring deeds of the various Negro soldiers the splendid work of the Labor Bat- talions and the civilian work of the entire race during the period of war, and is illustrated with two hundred pictures, including many taken on the French front, and is crammed with in: teresting stories, important historical information never before made public and facts and figures that are impres sive in the picture they give of the extent of the Negro’s participation in the war, ‘The publisher of this splendid book is the L, W, Walter Co., 633 Plymouth Court, Chicago, Iil., and ean be pur: chased for $2.90 in cloth or $3.75 in full. kratt, ‘The Sun, after a caretul perusal of the book, believes that every Negro man and woman should also read this volume, the most complete ever pub: lished on this subject. DARK SKINNED MEN. In sepaking before the Senate last Monday against the League of Na tions, Senator Reed of Missouri an: nounced the obituary of various pro- visions of the League covenant when ho said,—"Its membership would be composed of approximately three dark skinned men for each white man.” And doubtless his tones sank into the wailing notes of a dirge as he conclud. ed: “from the first a majority of the league will always vote for race equal: ity.” Now, the dark skinned men are obliged to waft a breath of tender re. gret at this discovery. The "war of humanity” indicated taat they were permitted to march along roads illum: inated by hope and justice instead of darkened by tho same enmities of the past. But some men are exces: sively acute at detecting dark skin ned men that they scarcely notice qualifications. What next? fn announcing the publication of Prof. Payne's latest contribution to the literature of the Negro race, we feel that we are announcing a book that Is destined to shape the future destinies of the race more than any other recent book written of and around the race problems, Prof, Payne’s untiring efforts for many years in behalt of race better- ment and his methods of helping the Negro of the South to help himself in obtaining and maintaining his political and social liberty are well known to most of those who are abreast with and deeply interested in the race pro- paganda. ‘This volume is not only a brief his- tory of the Negro race in its relation ~o the making of American history, but is a dependable text on political and social economy as well. The av- thor has been a painstaking student ‘of all faction and factional disturb- ‘ances or race troubles and race pre- judices in all sections of the South sinea emancipation, His analysis have always been cleam, clear cut and with a desire to indicate how best to obtain justice to all. A glance over the table of contents will show the value of the text. ‘Bound in cloth.

HOME AT HANNIBAL, ENROLL AT THE ALBERT ALLEN STUDIO OF MUSIC Piano and Voice Special Attention Given to Beginners of Violin 2735 HIGHLAND AVENUE Bell Phone, Wabash 347 MRS, ALLEN MOORE, ‘Teacher St. Louis, Mo—After traveling more than 1000 milox in the interest of the Grand Lodge of the nights of Pythias my tour was ended at Hannibal. While at Hannibal I visited the Masonic and the UB, F. Home of the latter I have tile to say: that the great Order of the U. B. F. has a home for its un- fortunate members which is a credit and an arset unrealized by 90% of the Order. It would make any member of the Order feel proud of his con- nection if he could see the home in Its present condition. Perhaps tt can- not be described better than in the words of Past Grand Master ePttigrew who thus wrote in the register of the Home his observations: "This home is in the best sanitary condition I have ever seen it, Hverything is clean and nice; the cooking is nice and elean; the inatmes are clean, and have plenty to eat; the farm is in the best of shape; crop, good; stock in good con: dition; the work is hard, One woman works {rom daylight yntil 10 o'clock at night. ‘There is no stop for her. She is just fine and seem unweary I never saw so much fruit put up ‘This woman does everything about the house and farm. Mrs, Renfro should be encouraged with an increase of wages and a donation from the Board. We as U. B. F's. will naver be able to duplicate this woman, and Mr. Renfrc her husband has no equal,” §, T. Pot tsrew, Past G M. I made a careful examination of the Home and farm. 1 found all that Bro, Pettigrew said to be true and I found more than he said in his brief words, ‘There are two houses con: taining twenty rooms; there are twelve inmates, 40 acres of farm land to look after; five head of horses, 5 head of cattle, 12 heads of hogs, any number of fowls, there are children to send to school, and an orphan baby to take care of. I found all of this be. ing more than well done, under the management of Dr. Queen and the the special supervision of Bro. Ren: fro. For all of this valuable service for 8000 members of the Order they are recelving the magnificent sum of $40 and $20 per month. Our collec- tions for last year was estimated at $90,000.00, They should receive not less than $125 per month. ‘The fant: tor of any building of that size would get more, The Order cannot afford to fail to increase their wages. The work and care given the home by Bro. Renfro and wife are not the re: sults of their wages, but the results of their love for the Order and for the unfortunate instructed to their care We venture to say that this is the ver. ict of all who made up the party, which was a representative party, there being in it Prof. Martin Lewis and A. C. Maclin of the Donglass high school, Mrs, Jennie Cotton Buckner well known in fraternal circles and especially to the Grand Royal House of our Order and myself.

Big Industrial Parade DR. RAMSEY'S GREAT TRIP. On the morning of the 11th of August, we left Kansas City at 6:00 A. M. for our long and extensive trip through the East. The party consisted of myself, (E. B. Ramsey), R. C. Chilton, Dr. R. C. Hayden, and Gee. Wills. Our first stop was Excelsior Springs where we had breakfast at the Albany Hotel. On leaving there about 8:00 o'clock we motored to Des Moines, Io., where we had lunchon. Our next stop was Lea Ia., here we encountered a little trouble which was readily adjusted and proceeded to Des Moines, Io., where we arrived at 7:30 in the morning. At this junction we found that he had a broken spring. Here we spent the whole day to have the spring rewelded; at 8:00 o'clock that evening we proceeded for our next big town, Chicago. Ill. After leaving Des Moines about 11:30 that evening we arrived in a town called Newton, Ia. Here we encountered a severe wind storm which necessitated us spending the night in the car on the roadside. The next morning we proceeded on our journey and arriving at a town called Cliffin, Ia., just sixty five miles from Davenport, where we had some motor trouble. At this junction we were a little bit alarmed at the situation, Mr. Geo. Wills and my self boarded the Rock Island train and about 7:30 that evening went to Davenport, Ia., in order to secure the services of a first class mechanic to take back to Cliffin to have the car put in order to continue our journey. Forunately however through the persistent effort of Mr. Chilton, the local mechanic of that town and Mr. Chilton and Dr R. C. Hayden took the engine completely down, located the trouble which was very simple indeed and proceeded that very night to Join Mr. Wills and myself at Davenport. On their arrival in Davenport about 4:00 o'clock in the morning they were arrested and taken to police headquarters where they had to give a satisfactory explanation of their wandering around the city at that time of the morning in search of Wills and myself After locating us, we had breakfast at Moline, Ill., and then proceeded to Chicago; we had a delightful day's run and arrived at the Big City about 6:00 o'clock; here we spent three days visiting friends and enjoying the hospitality of Chicago's citizens. We left Chicago the morning of the 17th, had breakfast at Gary, Ind, had lunch at St. Joseph, Mich., and enjoyed a delightful dinner at Battle Creek, Mich. We then continued our journey and our next stop was at Ann Arbor, Mich., where we arrived at 12:00 o'clock P. M. At this junction we were undecided as to whether to continue our journey to Detroit or not and after enjoying a midnight lunch here we set sail for Detroit, Mich., with Dr. R. C. Hayden at the wheel and we accomplished 51 miles in 47 seconds. We spent two delightful days in Detroit meeting quite a number of Elks and at the same time soliciting the support for the Grand Lodge to come to Kansas City in 1920. Here we were very royally entertained by several of Detroit's leading citizens and Elks among whom were: W. Williams, a Negro officer who is Sergent of Detectives of the City of Detroit. On the following afternoon at 5:00 o'clock, having secured our reservation on the steamboat, City of Detroit, we sailed for Buffalo; on arriving at Buffalo the next morning we had breakfast Mirthful THE KANSAS CITY SUN, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1919. Fair and Carnival At 14th and Michigan All Around and Up and Down the Streets Oct. 4 to 12 Inclusive and pulled right out for the great city of the East which is 495 miles from Buffalo. Our next stop was at Syracuse, N. Y. Here we enjoyed a lovely supper and decided to make it into Utica, fifty miles distant to put up for the night. At this point, we experienced our first tire trouble. Before leaving the next morning from Utica, N. Y. I purchased two new tires and continued on, stopping at Albany, N. Y; for dinner; and reached the great City at 10:00 o'clock P. M. While in New York we put up at the Lybia Hotel and here we spent several days sightseeing and the most interesting trip that we enjoyed was a visit to Madame Walker's elegant home in Tarrytown, N. Y. overlooking the great Hudson river. It would be foolish to me at this time to tell of the magnificence of this wonderful home. From New York we attended the Elks' Convention at Atlantic City and will say that Mr. Chilton was very instrumental in connection with Dr. Bruce, Mr. Gilmore and Mr. Rivers in securing the Grand Lodge for Kansas City. After returning to New York City, I was joined there by Mrs. Ramsey who had been motoring through the state of New York with Dr. ano Mrs. Robinson of Baltimore, Md. Accidently I met Mr. Herbert Gleedof, Lawrence, Kansas, on Lennox Avenue, and he also joined us in making our trip to Baltimore, Philadelphia and Washington, where we had a very delightful time. While at Baltimore we were the guests of Dr. and Mrs. Robinson who made it extremely pleasant for us. After spending a few days in Baltimore Mr. Chilton and I started back on our journey back home. Enroute home we passed through the following cities: New York City, Buffalo, Detroit, Toledo, Send Bend, Chicago, Des Moines, Maryville, St. Joseph and home. Miss Doris R.
