TLERS' DAY
ORGANIZING
DR. BUNDY FREED.
In the case of the people of Illinois vs. Dr. Bundy, it will be remembered that Dr. Bundy was convicted in the Circuit Court of St. Clair County, Illinois, in March, 1919, and sentenced to a life term at the penitentiary.
Dr. Bundy was represented by Hueston & Calloway, a prominent Kansas City law firm, and they with their associates in this case appealed to the Supreme Court of Illinois, for the reason that Dr. Bundy had not had a fair and impartial trial by a jury of his peers, but was convicted or prejudice both of the trial judge and the jury.
The trial judge refused to grant Dr. Bundy bond pending appeal to the Supreme Court, whereupon Dr. Bundy was sent to the Southern Illinois penitentiary, at Chester, and has been confined there since that time.
Messrs. Hueston and Calloway desirous that justice and right be done, made application to the Supreme Court of Illinois for a writ of supersedeas. This writ was directed to Justice Duncan of the Supreme Court; the justice from the district where Dr. Bundy was tried and convicted. For some reason Judge Duncan requested Justice Carter of the Supreme Court, residing at Chicago, to hear the application for the writ of supersedeas and Justice Carter finally consented and on last Monday, March 8, Messrs Hueston and Calloway presented their petition to Justice Carter in his chamber at Chicago.
After hearing these gentlemen's presentation of their reasons why Dr. Bundy should be liberated on bail, supported by brief and a record of the proceedings, Justice Carter took the matter into consideration and informed the gentlemen that he would pass on the matter at 3:00 o'clock in the afternoon, at which time he would give a decision. At 3:00 o'clock in the afternoon Justice Carter told the gentlemen that he would grant the writ of Supersedeas filed by the attorneys for Dr. Bundy and fixed the bond at $25,000 to be made by qualified persons in Cook County, Illinois. Too much credit cannot be given Messrs. Hueston and Calloway, the distinguished attorneys who have been so aggressive in this matter in the very initial steps taken during the trial unto the Supreme court, to see that Dr. Bundy be given a fair and impartial trial as guaranteed to him under the laws and constitution of the State of Illinois and the United States.
Mrs. J. W. Jacobs, of 4201 West Belp Place, wife of former Presiding Elder of the C. M. E. Church, quietly passed to her reward Thursday of last week. The deceased had been confined to her bed and room for several weeks. Her disease was complicated. On last Monday, she was removed to the hospital where she remained until the end came. After undergoing a minor operation, it was soon discovered that the end was near. She was a great Missionary worker and lived a consistent Christian until her death. She is survived by her husband, Rev. J. W. Jacobs, pastor of the C. M. E. Church at Carbondale, Ill., and son, Mr. Woody Jacobs of the Woody Jacobs Real Estate Company; mother, two sisters and a brother. Rev. McGee, pastor C. M. E. Church, at Boley, Okla. The remains were carried to Richmond, Mo., Saturday for interment.—The St. Louis Clarion.

I am personally acquainted2 with Major N. Clark Smith and think he is one of the most talented men with whom it has been my pleasure to work. He was a member of my classes in Public School Music Supervision at the University of Kansas last summer; he was also a voice student of music. His voice is a tenor of a splendid quality and range. Mr. Smith is well schooled in music; has a good general education and is a gentleman in every way. I have observed his work as a director and he is splendid. I recommend him to anyone desiring the services of a competent man.

An Address
Ter-cent
Our mind doth wander back
Yes, to that old, home-town shack,
When but a lad, at mere play.
We'd pass the hours away.—
Our hearts were then so young and
gay.
And we could proudly say:
No fault in you, no fault in me,
'Twas so easy to agree.—
But now the clock of time has
changed.
New scenes have been arranged;
Back in the land where we use to
roam.
Far from the old folks at home.—
The change they say is for the best.
The future doubtless will tell the test;
But the heart with joy and rapture
will wend.
Back to the land of beginning again.

LIBERIA.
An Address Before the Missionary and
Ter-centenary Convention at St.
James' Church, Friday, March
12th, 1920. By Mr. Rucker
Smith.
Liberia, like all governments has some very interesting history, no doubt, just as inspiring as our American history is to its people. It is rather difficult for an American Negro to fully appreciate American history, as it is accepted by white citizens, when he was but a slave at the time of tis making. I am sure, no Negro parents would feel justified in teaching their sons that they had a chance to become President of the United States. But it would be quite different if your son was born in Liberia where every opportunity is open to him, a people, whose lives are controlled by another race which considers you inferior to them, has not experienced real freedom. While we were yet chattie-slaves, Liberia was building a republic; Liberians were a free people forty-eight years before we lost our chains. She has been ruined herself as a republic seventy-two years; we have only been free fifty-seven years and have never ruled our
selves. Liberia can and will solve her problems, she is destined to be the leading force of Africa, so far as the race is concerned. All of the leading nations of Europe have possessions in Africa, and for more than a century carried on traffic in slaves. Not any of them was as fair as the United States, who secured a colony for refugee slaves and then helped them through many difficulties. Our textbooks give no inspiring information of Liberia and its people; we have accepted it however, with the same spirit of ridicule and discredit as the white race does, whom it was meant for. Africans are looked upon by white races as "impossibles," so far as amalgamation is concerned. The American Negro no exception. It is quite natural. I think for you cannot legislate equality of races. The solution to the Negro problem, in the United States, is in the hands of the white race. It is subject to legislation; it is similar to the Indian problem, which has undergone many changes. I fear, that we do not realize this as a race. We are hoping for equal opportunity with the white race, and the majority of our race, believe me, will get it some day.
Missionary work in Africa has been closely followed by wealth seekers, not all times did they have the welfare of the natives at heart; but I am sure the Negro missionaries of the United States are sincere. In Liberia, no doubt the same is true in other parts of Africa, the industrial development has been neglected. To change a man you must change his environment. Any community, whether or in Africa, can be lifted to a higher degree of civilization. Liberia would be confronted with a serious problem if every Negro in America was unloaded on her. The criminal tendencies prevalent thousands of Negroes of this country, would be hard to cope with. I think, under proper management the American Negro, those of good morals, qualified industrially or wish to become qualified, can transplant, so to speak, the best part of America's Civilization on Liberia Soil. There is no limit to the expansion of a free people. A race ruled entirely by an other, as we are, cannot succeed.

WILD WEST HERE AT HOME
Elks Rocky Gulch will be a novel entertainment. Frontier production promises real amusement. Exalted Ruler Q. J. Glimore, has appointed committees. Big frontier day celebration will begin Saturday, March 20, and end Saturday, March 27, at Battery B, 17th and Highland. The Big Rocky Gulch Frontier Days Celebration which will be manned and staged by the members and their ladies of the Midwest Lodge No. 233, I. B. P. O. E of W., promises to be one of the most ripping entertainments ever pulled off by the Elks. Battery B, will be an exact reproduction of Rocky Gulch, a Wild Western town in the good old days of 1849 and the scene will be made more real by the charterization of certain personages which will make up the population of the rolllicking western village. Every character from Denver Dan and his gang of dealing card sharps to thesturdy sheriff, his deputies and jailers, will be reproduced. There will be all the places of entertainment and loitering found in one of those little Western towns, including Calamity Jane's Dance Hall, Saloons, Town Hall, Jail, Court House, Banks, etc. Nothing will be omitted to make this reproduction complete and to insure a good time for everybody.
When you enter the door of Battery B, next Saturday night, March 20th, you leave Kansas City behind and become at one step a visitor to the "Wild and Wooly Rocky Gulch." In return for your ticket the doorkeeper will give you $5,000.00 in fun or stage money which you can spend at all the different institutions of Rocky Gulch.

NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS
ASSOCIATION.
The upheaval in Germany that has
proven a failure is attributed by the
foreign press to President Wilson and
Premier Lloyd George and by a part
of the Americans to the failure of the
Senate to sustain the League of N
ations Covenant. Hence the League of
Nations is considered the cause and
the remedy of the Berlin Coup D'Eut.
On the Bulletin quoted two weeks
ago was later placed the following:
"Many men do little things and do them well. A few men do big things and get paid accordingly. The few hire the many men to do the little things that they are expert at. They co-ordinate the parts and build the business engine that runs smoothly and pull through the sand or take a hill on high. There they watch to see that the smoke from the exhaust is not too black, that the radiator does not go dry, that gas for power and oil for the reduction of friction are properly applied. When it rains they stop the car. They put on chains at night; light the head and tail light, guide the car at all times and hold it to the right side of the road."
DR BUNDY ON BOND
It will be pleasing to the Colored people to know that at last the attorneys for Dr. Larry Bundy have succeeded in armaging for his release on bond pending the hearing of his appeal and Messrs. Hueston and Calloway and the white attorneys have spent the past week in Chicago getting the bond. Dr. Bundy is enjoying reasonable health but has made no plans following his release
A NOTABLE SHRINE MEETING.
Was held in Allah Temple, Thursday evening, March 11, 1920. The special occasion was the presence of Imperial Potentate Ceasar R. Blake, Jr., of Rameses Temple, Charlotte, N. C. The opening ceremonies were conducted by our excellent Illustrated Potentate Chas. Gillis.
After many felicitous speeches from several noble men, including: Fred W. Babney, Geo. A. Williams, of Kansas City, Kas, N. C. Crews, Wm. H. Dawleys, D. C. Houston, F. A. McWilliams and Dr. Miller the Imperial Potentate stated in a clear, succinct and impressive manner the case of Houston, Texas. This case involves not only Texas, but commanderies, chapters and blue lodges, wherever in the United States objections may be made to Negroes. The contention is that Prince Hall and his early accession were perfectly legal and regular, but that the states right lodges of the present day are unable to connect up with them. They go back to a certain period and then meet an impassable gap. No way has been formed to date to bridge this gap, however, there is one set of books that clear this up but so far Negroes have no access to them. This case may require $30,000. The present assessment of $2,200 will not about $7,500. Hence it behooves every Shriner to pay up at once and every Mason to be on the alert with all the historical dates that he can furnish to the Imperial Divan and the staff of able lawyers that have been retained. The Georgia case was lost through inactivity and listlessness. If this case is lost, there will be no Negro Masons, but those that belong to white lodges. This in a nut-shell is the situation. Will those Masons who have spent hundreds of dollars in maintaining their lodges, chapters, commanderies, consistories, and shrines lose all rather than pay a few dollars in the fight to retain their standing?
Allah Temple passed a resolution to support the Imperial Divan to the-lim it in this great legal fight. A feature that tempered the solemnity or rather the seriousness of this gathering was the presence of the musical trio: Misses Hammett, Vaughan and Wilson.

THEY SAY
—That if you would look spruce,
you must never pine.
—That a gossiper is a person who
thinks too little and talks too much.
—That if you would keep your
friends, praise them in public and re-
prieve them in private.
—That a woman is like a glass
of soda water when she gets angry;
a little exposure and she fizzes out
—That when it is as easy to be an
optimist as a pessimist, just be an
optimist.
—That a man is sometimes favored
by fortune only to have a streak of
"bad luck."
—That a person who insists upon
singing when he has no voice should
be muzzled.
That the Old Settlers' Meeting at Lincoln High School Sunday should be attended by every citizen in Kansas City.
---
—That a sermon preached which will be liked by everybody must have bad all of its teeth pulled so it can't bite anybody.

—That a certain woman returned from a vacation and was at home almost a week before her husband knew it because he hadn't been home. Guess what he caught.

ST. LOUIS, MO
My dear Crews:—
"The Roosevelt Ideal League" is calling a State Conference at Sedalia the 29th and 30th for the purpose of securing notice on the "Crackers" of Missouri who have fled for refuge to the G. O. P., that we will not only repudiate Lowden if he is nominated but will repudiate the G. O. P. in the State of Missouri if the party in the state backs him. The time has come when men of our group can no longer suffer the affliction imposed upon us by socialized Republicans and friends. I cannot refrain from associating the name of Lowden with that of "Nero" when I recall the spirit in which "he fiddled" while "human flesh was barbed" in East St. Louis. I was elated at your position with reference to Senator Spencer, the man whom the "Crackers" in the party never did want because he defeated their "hellish Segregation designs."

The most sensational news among the Colored people of the city is that of the great revival campaign being conducted at Ward Chapel A. M. E. Church, 12th Street and Woodland Avenue, where more than fifty persons have "hit the trail" and both attendance and enthusiasm are increasing. The tremendous success of this undertaking is evidence that a prophet may have honor "in his own country, for the pastor whose work laid the foundation for this work is Dr. G. E. Horse, who is well known and who has the confidence of all the people. The evangelist is Rev. R. A. Adams, D.D., who lives at 634 Frank lin Ave., Kansas City, Ks., and who is kept so busy all over the country try till he seldom has time to labor at home.
The campaign of enlightenment conducted in connection with the religious work is having telling effect, and the lectures on Higher Eugenics, Prophylactics and Social Economics are being received. These bear out the statement of the pastor that Dr. Adams is the most modern, best qualified and most effective evangelist the Negro race has produced.
The evangelist will hold a great mass meeting for men, next Sunday afternoon at 2:30, and he will deliver his famous address on exalted manhood, because of the urgent demands for another meeting for men. At this meeting many ministers will be pres ent and Major N. Clark Smith will have charge of the music, furnishing a number of selections, vocal and instrumental. Also a number of men's lodges are expected to attend in bodies.

WILSON'S MISSILES
By Ona B. Wilson
Longevity of occupation in any line of work or business, calling or profession does not always signify commendable service rendered, a lasting position, progress or an open reward. Many have hob-nailed their ways for years through these four things mentioned with no results. Some have for years bribed and stolen and then been caught and cast out. Some have shown little or no progress. Some have accepted things bad and good with no open reward. The same physical conditions can be applied spiritually. Many tell of forty and fifty, thirty and twenty years in the church and of the service rendered even they fail to know or tell. It is sometimes best to let the service show the length of time. True service has its reward; it may not come when one so desires. One becomes a handicap or an impediment it always comes when needed. On becomes a handicap or an impediment to others when they tell of longevity of spiritual life with little results or deeds for what is in a man or woman will certainly come out and if one is so charged with the Holy Spirit it some one will know it besides one's self. It is impossible to do a good or worthy deed or live a Christian life with out some one knowing, so let the longevity of occupancy take care of it and the deeds will follow
AN APPEAL TO THE CHURCHES.
Realizing the great struggle our people are going through, we are putting forth every effort to better our condition, morally, socially and religiously. Mission work in the West Bottoms has been carried on under great disadvantages for several years, yet the good people have not become discouraged, and much good has been accomplished. The Chamber of Commerce is paying running expenses and $50.00 per month on the salary of the man who has charge of the work, $75.00 per month having been promised. The Committee is appealing to our own churches to raise the $25.00 balance on salary by each church paying a small sum each month. Brethren this is Christian work, and these are our own people.

Editor of Sun:
I am now in New Haven in the mouth of one of the America's most famous institutions of learning. When I arrived here I was more than ten days late, hence Colored News Haven and a goodly number of the whites were on too tips to see me; all the Colored church paid me a high tribute of respect and co-operation. I endeavored to measure up to their expectations to the extent that at my first sermon there were eleven converts, two of whom were white. The news spread like fire, and at the night service there was not standing room. These New Englanders are supposedly very stiff, but you ought to see them now. Resolutions are pouring in from every direction against my leaving so early, but I must do so in order to arrive in Kansas City on scheduled time. Please tell my friends I leave here on Tuesday to open my second to last campaign. I open March 19th at Great Avery Chapel (A. M. E. Church) Dr. W. T.

IN MEMORIUM.
In memory of our dear husband and father, Rial W. Foster, who departed this life four years ago March 18 1916.
Oh, how blest are ye whose toils are ended!
Who, through death, have unto God ascended!
Ye have Risen;
From the cares which keep us still in prison.
Christ has wiped away your tears forever;
Ye have that for which we still endeavor.
To you are chanted:
Songs which yet no mortal ear have haunted.
Ah! who would not, then depart with gladness,
To inherit heaven for earthly sadness?
Who here would languish:
Longer in bewailing and in anguish?
Sadly missed by: Mrs. R. W. Foster and Children.

Dear ones how we miss you,
The weary days they seem like years;
Oh our hearts are sad and lonely,
And our eyes are dim with tears.

What are all the joys we meet;
Since your loving smiles no longer,
Greet the coming of our feet.
Sadly missed by—Mary Gaines, wife; Mrs. Rosa Marshall, Mrs. Dollie Adams, Miss Carrie Gaines, daughters and sisters; Gus Caines, William Gaines, Ollie Gaines, Berryman Gaines, sons and brothers; Miss Lilly Mae Marshall, Master A. C. Smyers, Miss Carina Smyers, grandchildren.
