CHAPTER VII.
As recorded in our last chapter, we left Atlanta at 8:30 p. m, after a most strenuous but enjoyable day for the next stop on our itinerary which was Chattanooga where we arrived at 1:10 in the morning of April 17. We remained in our car until 7:30 when the local committee headed by Mr. J. F. Trimble, the well known undertaker who is President of the Chattanooga Negro Business League and E. D. Anderson, Secretary called to escort us to breakfast which was delightfully served at Dent's Cafe, 421 East 9th street. At 9:00 o'clock a splendid line of autos owned by Colored Business Men of the City took us on a sight seeing trip to Chickauga Park and Missionary Ridge a part of which is in Georgia and part in Tennessee.
Chattanooga abounds in Civil War historical interest and is possibly the greatest "Monumental" City in America. More monuments being erected here to achievements of historical interest of both sides in the Civil War Conflict than all the rest of the country combined. If you know history, then you know what a tour of these famous battlefields and Look Out mountain means. Every foot of the ground from the time you look upon the old engine of the daring Raiders which greets you in impressive silence at the Union Station until you have traversed every foot of the historic soil of this section is filled with thrills. And though many of our party had decided previous to our arrival in Chattanooga that they would spend the day resting, they unanimously agreed at the close of the day's activities that it was the most enjoyable and inspiring sight seeing tour we had received on the entire trip. To one who has never been over Chickamango Park and Missionary Ridge, it would be impossible to convince of the weird and wonderful beauty of these historic places. But imagine thousands of monuments and tablets of bronze and stone and iron costing from one hundred dollars to two hundred thousand dollars with well kept roadway and historic cabins and houses in a splendid state of preservation with bronze tablets telling the particular deeds performed upon this certain spot, everywhere you turn, and you have a faint idea of what these places mean in the history of the Civil War. At 1:00 o'clock we returned to a specially prepared luncheon at Dent's Cafe and after a half hour's rest, we were loaded aboard a special car where we were taken to historic Lookout Mountain one of the most thrilling and inspiring spots we have ever visited. Here we were placed in charge of a Color

THE TEXAS CLUB CELEBRATES THE 19TH OF JUNE IN KANSAS CITY.
The Texas Club an organization with a membership of several hundred in greater Kansas City observed Saturday, June 19th in Swope Park with a big basket picnic and a spicy program. Special cars were employed and managed by Mr. W. H. Monroe to accommodate the large crowd. Sharply at 11:30 a.m. m. they departed from 18th and Vine streets to the great Swope Park. It required the service of a motor truck to carry the many baskets that had been prepared for the occasion. The arrival in Swope Park was followed by a brief period of recreation and sight-seeing. Mr. N. S. Adkins, Vice President of the Club called the people together; and in a concise way stated the purpose of the meeting and proceeded to conduct the program. Prayer was offered by Rev. S. W. Toles. After which Mr. W. H. Monroe was introduced and read to the joy and pleasure of all present "the Emancipation Proclamation" issued by President Abraham Lincoln January 1, 1863. Following this the Vice-President Mr. N. S. Adkins in a timely way introduced Rev. James S. Anderson, pastor of the Mt. Olive Baptist Church as orator of the day. With only one moment's notice, Rev. Anderson with his usual preparedness, responded and swayed the large congregation with ease. Rev. Anderson spoke in part as follows:
"I am glad that I was born, reared, converted, educated and began my public life in Texas. For the reason that Texas is not only the largest state in the Union, but when it comes to Negro progress and development, Texas leads all the other states in the union. "The Emancipation Proclamation" read by Mr. Monroe brings to our minds the fact that on January 1, 1863 Presideft Lincoln by the stroke of his pen emancipated four million Negroes from the chains of slavery. But in the face of this Proclamation, and the close of the Civil War April 9, 1865, the North had reasons to believe that the South would refuse to obey the laws of the Union, and continue to treat their Negroes as slaves. With this in mind garrisons were established in the south. On June 18, 1865 General Gordon Granger landed at Galveston, Texas, and the next day a proclamation declaring the slaves free. It is for this reason that the Negroes of Texas celebrate June 19 as "Emancipation Day." This day is a very important day in Texas. Every city, town, village and every place where Negroes are found in Texas are crowded today in the celebration of this day. Now may God bless the "Texas Club" for endeavoring to disseminate the principles of religion, economy and sociability. Several other persons delivered impromptu sneeches. There were enough baskets to furnish tables a half block long. These tables were heavily loaded with pork, beef, chickens, cakes, pies, potatoes and all kinds of vegetables. In addition to these, ice ceram and lemonade were served free. Foot races and other innocent amusements were engaged in. The Texas Club takes this method to invite all Texans in Kansas City to come to the meetings every Wednesday night at the Y. M. C. A.

ed man who in some respects was the most remarkable man we have ever met and his recital of the historic events that transpired on Lookout's lofty summit where was fought the battle above the clouds and from which at a certain point can be seen seven states, made it a delightful and memorable afternoon. As a guide thoroughly posted and eloquent to a degree, W. P. Parker, the man of whom we speak is absolutely in a class by himself, and not only our party followed him from spot to spot and hung on his every word as he graphically described the events that transpired here fifty-seven years ago but large parties of sightseeing white tourists also gathered around him eager to hear every description he presented so eloquently. Parker says that for thirty years, he has been acting as guide and lecturer upon historic fields of this section and knows every nook, monument, battlefield and point of interest by heart and has earned as high as $200.00 per day voluntarily contributed for his remarkable services. Our party presented him a purse of $18.50 at the conclusion of our afternoon on the mountain. Some people think it's a thrill to ride up the Cog railroad ascending Pike's Peak but if you want a thrill thatills your nerves to tingling and almost causes your heart to stop beating, take a ride up the almost perpendicular railroad that rises sheer onto the face of the mountain for three quarters of a mile reaching Lookout Summit. At the conclusion of our trip we returned to the City and from 5:00 to 7:00 spent the time visiting the business places of Colored people in Chattanooga which compares favorably with the business places visited in other cities. Chattanooga has a large Colored population who are doing nicely and who are ambitious to make their City one of the greatest in the South. At 8:00 o'clock we were tendered a reception by the Chattanooga Business League in the elegantly furnished rooms of the Y. W. C. A. in the Masonic Temple where an elaborate spread was served and many short but entertaining talks were made by both citizens and members of our delegation. Among those who contributed largely to the success of our stay in Chattanooga were: Mr. G. W. Franklin Jr. Mr. J. J. Oldfield of the Chattanooga Defender, Mr. J. F. Trimble and Mr. Wm. Dent.
At 11:00 o'clock, escorted by the members of the committee we repaired to our special car where we in turn held an informal reception for nearly an hour preparatory to leaving for the next point on our journey historic Nashville called the "Athens of the South" of which we will speak in our next issue.

One Negro policeman, a distintrieed ed cigar store clerk and a meddlesome sailor were the victims in a near riot scene at Indiana avenue and 35th street, Sunday night. The sailor and the clerk are dead. The Negro policeman may die. All were shot in a fracas that was started by a flag ceremonial in which a group of colored people styling themselves the "Star Order of Abbyssinia, were engaged in at the front of Entertainers Hall in 35th street and Indiana Ave. The Society had been parading through the streets in the "Black Belt" and had halted at the front of the hall where a ceremony in which the American and the Abyssinian flags were symbolic features, was started. Feeling that the American flag was being desecrated by the ceremony the Negro policeman rushed at the crowd followed by the sailor. In the scrup precipitated by their action the sailor was killed, the policeman probably fatally wounded and the clerk was killed in his store by a stray bullet.
A statement by Joseph P. Owens, the wounded Negro officer, declares that the ceremony included the burning of the flags by the Society and it was this action that prompted him to attempt to break up the proceedings. "The crowd looked like a group of Colored foreigners to me. They had been parading through the streets all the afternoon and acting like 'nuts' to my way of thinking. When they stopped in front of the hall and began the burning of the flags, I thought it was high time to put a stop to the circus. I don't know how the sailor got mixed up in the matter. If he had kept out of the thing and minded his own business I don't think either of us would have been hurt."
Shot With Rifles.
The shooting is said to have been done with rifles. Onlookers stated that when the policeman and the sailor charged the crowd, two men rushed to an automobile that had been used in the parade and took two rifles from under the seats and began firing. Officer Owens fell at the first volley and the sailor was shot and fell dead over the prostrate body of the policeman a second later. By this time the air was thick with the shouts of the great crowds attracted to the scene by the shooting. Patrols filled with policemen began to arrive and when the excited people were some what scattered it was then discovered

that the clerk in the cigar store had been killed by a stray bullet.
Leaders of Society.
R. D. Jones, a white agitator who has been preying upon credulous Negroes in Chicago and elsewhere; Grover C. Redding, Joseph Fernon and his son are accused with being the instigators of an agitation which has been accounted as the reason for a series of demonstrations among the local Negroes which called for a "back to Africa" movement with the ultimate aim of driving the white man out of the "Dark Continent." Sunday was the second time that the society had paraded through the "Belt" following a meeting held in a hall in South State street. The flag feature occurred at each parade, consisting, the members say, of a fire consecration of both the world and Abyssinian emblems to the cause of liberty throughout the world.
The incident was not a race riot. The casualties were caused by the over-zealousness of a Negro police officer and a meddlesome "jackie" sailor. The store clerk was an unlucky bystander who was hit by a stray bullet. Swarms of police are being kept in the "Belt" neighborhood of 35th and Indiana who are having an easy time watching the crowds of curious people who have been drawn to the scene by the "wild and wooly" stories published in the daily newspapers. In other sections of the city sailors are amusing themselves beating any lone Negroes who happen to find their way into sections outside of the "Belt." In some of these incidents the sailors have come out of the fracases with whole skins. In other instances they have caught the veritable "tartars" and been made to take to the woods.
The Negroes, in general, are not alarmed over the situation. They declare themselves ready to take care of any crisis which may come as the result of the Sunday night affair. No meetings will be held, but every precaution will be taken to vigorously oppose any attempts at general violence by "white mobs." The city officials do not expect any general uprising against the Negro population. Chicago, Ill., June 21.—R. D. Jonas, the white leader and Edward Redding, the Colored leader of the "Abyssinian" outbreak of last night were arrested this afternoon. Redding was caught at his residence on the West Side and Jonas was found at the home of one of his followers on the South side. They both insist that they are the innocent cause of the outbreak and that there was no in-

good citizenship and a sense of responsibility are not confined to one race. Owens, whether he lives or dies, for this reason will be regarded as one of the most valuable servants the city ever had. It would be ridiculous to minimize the seriousness of the race situation in Chicago. There are many hoodlums, white and Negro, who seek to take advantage of its existence to forward their private revenges and to display their unhesitating brutality. But if any clearer realization comes from this affray that the mass of both races are alike in condemning the revolutionary spirit and hating and resisting to the uttermost its display in violence, good will come out of the evil, and understanding out of crime.-Chicago Herald and Examiner.

tention to precipitate a disturbance o fany kind.
Not A Negro Movement.
Local Negroes disavow any connection with the Jones-Redding propa ganda. They are keeping their heads and refuse to become excited about the matter. Jones, it is said, is an irresponsible grafter who should be squelcher at all hazzards. Redding is a fantastic who has virtually lost his mind brooding over the question of the race going over the seas to redeem Africa from the "oppression of the white race."
Wrong as Usual.
The local dailies are wrong as usual. Their headlines have displayed the habitual folly of the breed and, what was an incident that could have been closed with a simple arrest of one or two men, has been magnified into a serious race clash. The Evening Post discloses a woeful ignorance of the forces at work producing unrest among the colored elements of the city's population, refers to the "childish minds" of Chicago's "Black Belt" as being the chief agency in creating race disturbances in the city.
Negroes Not Fools
Up to this hour the Negroes have made no demonstration in connection with the unfortunate happening determining that they were in no sense, a party to the outburst. And yet they have quietly decided that if the "childish minds" of the "white Press" conclude that it is wise to create a situation out of which will come a recurrence of last summer's disgrace they will meet it squarely and un afraid. In the meantime they are doing everything in their power to as sure the city authorities that they have no desire to do other than preserve the peace.
WHITE MEN AND NEGROES
STANDING SIDE BY SIDE.
The shooting in connection with the parade of the "Star Order of Ethiopia" Sunday night was in no sense a race riot, and should not be misunderstood in that connection.
The object of the society is purely revolutary. The burning of the American flag, which brought on the attack, is a typical manifestation of the sort of thing which the more vicious revolutionaries, white as well as Negro, indulge in. The first attempt to stop the revolutionaries was made by a Negro policeman, who now, shot four times, lies near death in consequence. The next was made by a white man, who was killed. Two men were killed and one white and one Negro bystander wounded.
Immediately the good citizens of teh district, both white and Negro, co-operated to restore order and to hunt down the murderers. Organized groups of Negroes scoured the neighborhood, assisting the police in the search for the men who did the shooting and for the leaders of the "society" which was responsible. The Negro population of the ristrict was in no way involved with the acts of the paraders, and resented the burning of the flag as fiercely as any white man in Chicago.
Trouble between races can be avoided only by understanding. The curse of the situation is that a single vicious white man or vicious Negro may be taken as a representative of the race and stir up feeling far beyond the immediate circle of his evil. Just so, however, on the other hand, the courage and prompt action of such a man as Owens, the Negro policeman, and the co-operation of the Negro business men of the locality are doubly valuelab in showing that

To the Girl Reserves:
Being like the old woman who lived in a shoe, with so many children she knew not what to do, I find it impossible to write to each individual Girl Reserve, so I am writing this little note to all.
I wish that each one of you could be enjoying the beautiful city of Denver. The climate and the recreation facilities are wonderful. I can not tell you all of the interesting things I would like to tell you until I return. I will tell you this much however, that I have visited the Y. W. C. A. here and found a very fine and well equipped building.
I hope that every Girl Reserve will be loyal and true to her Corps and her Code during the summer.
With best wishes to every Girl Reserve.

Chronic Constipation.

Best Proof of this Wonderful
Remedy
"MOORE'S VIGORINE."
To Whom It May Concern:
For 18 years I have suffered with constipation, kidney and bladder troubles. I have taken treatments from many noted physicians, tried numbers of patent medicines; received little or no relief. I had almost given up in despair for a cure. But by chance one day two years ago a sample bottle of Moore's Vigorine was handed me. I tried it and found great improvement from the first few doses. I then bought a bottle and took it with still more marked improvement, until now I feel that I am entirely well. I suffer from neither of the three ailments. Instead of that sluggish, spring-time feeling, I feel well and refreshed. For what it has done I feel that I will be doing myself an injustice without a bottle of it in my house, in case I should ever need it. Any information I can give a sufferer, I will gladly do so, at any time. Call Bell phone Clifton 5221, or in person at 2304 Woodland Ave., K. C., Mo.

NEW ERA DISTRICT CONVENTION
The New Era District B. Y. P. U. Convention, presided over for the past three years by Mrs. Rosa C. Gipson, met here June 17-18. This was the most successful session known in the history of the Convention. The sessions were held at the Morning Star Baptist Church. The delegation was large and the reports very good. Every Union showed their loyal support by responding to each appeal. In the afternoon of the election when nominated for re-election as President, Mrs. Gipson declined and seconded the nomination of the Vice President, Mr. C. L. Drew, who was nominated for President. Rev. S. C. Doyle was elected President. Out of respect for the retiring President, Rev. Doyle asked that she preside through the Convention and close the work of her efforts. The Convention unanimously voted his request be granted. Mrs. J. W. Wilson quoted a beautiful poem to the honor of the retiring President. After speeches by ministers of the Convention, a standing vote of thanks was given Mrs. Gipson. Words failed her to express thanks to the many delegates and friends for their appreciation. Friday evening Mr. C. L. Drew conducted the musical and liter-

"ON MY WAY."
By Chas. P. Wilson,
Jefferson City, Mo.
I'm on my way, yes, so they say,
I'm sure to arrive some fair day;
It may be the poor-house, Oh, what
a shame,
If perchance I miss the "hall of fame."
I've been up and down this grand old
world.
Have met a lot of pretty girls;
A rolling stone gathers no moss.
Sometimes I think I'm almost lost.
A jolly good fellow I've always been,
Ever ready when the fun began;
On my way both night and day,
To hear what the jolly bunch had to
say.
The Carebets and the sparkling wine;
Lead to ruin in a course of time;
So it's up to me this very day,
To find the "good road," on my way.
Hence, I admit my sad mistake,
I ask one chance before too late;
To mend my steps without delay,
Then enjoy sweet pleasure the proper
way.
CHAPLAIN PRIOLEAU RETIRES.
Chaplain George W. Prioleau who for twenty-five years and twenty-one days has been in active service in the United States Army retired and will take up his permanent residence at 1311 West 35th Street Los Angeles, Calif. Promptly at high noon May 15, 1920, the Commanding Officer assembled the officers together for two reasons: 1. To read to them a letter of commendation, commending Chaplain Prioleau for efficient service to the Government and enlisted personnel and throughout all the years in the 25th Infantry a strong devition to duty and the race were always uppermost; 2nd, for the purpose of having each officer shake hands and say goodbye to Chaplain Prioleau. On May 14, a regimental reception was tended to the Chaplain and Mrs. Prioleau at which time a handsome mahogany cabinet with Sterling silver service for fourteen covers was presented them. Speeches for this special occasion of honor and trust setting forth the high estimate in which the chaplain and his accomplished wife are held were made by 1st Lieutenant Leslie King, band leader, 25th Inf. Band and First Sergt. Wm. Johnson, Hdq. Co. 25th Inf. Response was made by Mrs. Prioleau

After remarks by him, she called for final reports, which showed the most remarkable stride with which the Convention had grown. Three years ago they reported sixty-three dollars, today reported two hundred and twenty-seven—having one hundred and nine dollars for the state work. Out of appreciation the Convention voted Mrs. Gipson a donation and adduced to meet in 1821.

Meharry Alumni and Friends of Medical Education Contribute $500 for a Home for Doctor Geo. W. Hubbard, President of Meharry Medical College.
For forty four or five years Doctor W. Hubbard has been dean and president of Meharry Medical College. During this long period of time he has deprived himself of every comfort and made every sacrifice for the good of Meharry Medical College and Negro Medical education. The results of his efforts are too well known to be considered here. He has built for himself a monument in the hearts and souls of men that time cannot eface.
Not long since a move was started at Mehryar by the Alumni to build a home for Dr. Hubbard to comfort him and his faithful wife at a time when such is most needed. During the time of the visit of our friends on the Southern trip, Dr. S. H. Thompson of Kansas City, Kas., Dr. T. A. Jones and Dr. J. E. Perry were entertained at Hubbard Hospital and the matter of the home was brought to their attention. Dr. Perry was designated as a representative of the Alumni to bring the matter to the attention of the Mehryar graduates in Kansas City. A meeting was called Monday evening, June 21st, and the matter was briefly presented by the chairman to Mehryar men. Dr. S. H. Thompson had been especially invited to attend the meeting and following Dr. Perry made a strong appeal to the men in the interest of the Hubbard home. He concluded his remarks by saying "Every man should give $25.00 for this cause." He was the first man to lay down $25 for the cause for which he spoke. This was very significant; Dr. Thompson being a Howard graduate and had never seen Mehryar until recently. Other Howard men who voluntarily contributed to the fund are Dr. T. C. Unthank and Dr. Thos. A. Jones and Dr. E. C. Bunch of Ohio State Dental College also contributed.
The following subscriptions were given:

"BEHIND THE DOOR"
By Gouvencur Morris Picturized by Luther Reed Directed by Irvin Willat A Thomas H. Ince Production
"That Man Belongs to Me!"
The voice was their captain's—strange—terrible; and in a flash the mob of maddened seamen remembered.
"His wife!" they whispered. "At last he has found the fiend that"—and, hushed as if in awe, they stole away.
Then Captain Otto Krug, once called "coward," even "traitor," had his hour—there behind the door.
Come! A story of love and the sea, that will "get" you, every second.

The Sun is in receipt of a copy of the speech of Senator Selden P. Spencer of Missouri, delivered Saturday, May 22 in the United States Senate upon the Race Question. And he voices the sentiment of the Negro when he says that his paramount desire is for equality of opportunity, equality before the law and in the sight of God and spurning the so-called equality of social relationship he asks for no more and will be sat isfed with no less.
TWO NEW CHURCHES
That the South side is coming into its own as a civic center of Negro activities is again demonstrated by the fact that excavations have begun for two new churches, Bethel A. M. E. Church at 24th and Flora and Mornig Star Baptist Church at 23rd and Vine streets. Both of these will be stately, modern structures costing many thousands of dollars and the Sun predicts that many people who have been accustomed for years to go upon "the Hill" to attend services will transfer their membership and activities to these modern, closely located churches. We wish Rev Dawson and Rev. Daniels success in their undertakings.
PERISCOPE
The Conference of Editors
The Conference of nearly fifty of the editors of the Associated Negro Press, held recently in Chicago in the library of the Appomattox Club, marks a new epoch in American life. It was the largest voluntary gathering of Negro editors ever held in this country. The discussions were farent, practical and pointed. These important facts were outstanding: The Negro newspaper of today is a real commercial factor; the newspaper is the most outstanding force of public opinion in the race; the editors see with clear eyes and think straight, and there is not the slightest disposition to fear any thing or anybody under the Heavens and the newspapers of the country mean real business in working on this job of human rights and Ameri can opportunities.
Call it radical, or by any other name, the "tollies of the day"—segregation, Jim crow, lynching, mob violence, disfranchisement and bomb throwing—must cease and the right thinking people of both races must see to the job.
The newspapers of the country, with the backing and endorsement of the Associated Negro Press have highly resolved to work in season and out, without wearying or impatience, to get the desired results. There is no man too big, nor any section of the country too remote, to receive the serious and unflagging consideration of the newspapers published in the interest of the race.
The Chicago Conference of Editors marks a new day and a great day in working out our salvation.
Rev. John Jasper, who several years ago amused the country in his earnest effort to re-establish the "fact" of hundreds of years ago that "the sun does move," would be delighted if he were alive today. Not that he would be able to collect more data in support of his "theory," but that he might be able to see in the action of the American Federation of Labor convention, proof that, socially, "the sun do move."
The American Federation of Labor sun has moved. The convention at Montreal is reported as having "wiped out the color line and warned affiliated organizations that Negro workers must be given full and equal membership with white men."
If this is not proof of a movin' sun, what is it? After years, generations, of refusal to recognize the Negro worker, after compelling the sun to stand still while craft unions fought their battle over immaterial economic points, the "color line" is removed by resolution.
The fact that the action of the convention almost precipitated a race war on the floor may serve as a guide as to how far the resolution will become a militant instrument. The Negro also is recognized politically by resolution that guarantees him political privilege without giving the privilege, in the South. If the constitution of the United States, said to be a sacred document in the eyes of genuine Americans, cannot function sufficiently to bring to the Southern Negro his political privileges, how much may be expected of the resolution of the American Federation of Labor
If the action is sincere, if it is honestly meant, as acknowledgement that the social sun "do move," that the Negro must be given the same privileges the white man has so far monopolized, the federation has done something worthy of its name. But if the recognition of the Negro industrial worker is to be no more effective than the political recognition by the constitution—the Negroes probably will furnish the answer.
Betty & Sam's Little Corner
A
THEY SAY
—That it is easy to laugh at misfortune when the other fellow is the victim.
—That when a man falls in love, he quits laughing at others who have the same disease.
—That if all the "nuts" in Kansas City alone were in the "Bug-House" they'd have to build a bigger one.
—That at a recent wedding a ten cent club was formed to buy a present. That's a little cheap, isn't it?
—That a man's religion will never die as long as he applies the Golden Rule to all his daily actions. Amen.
—That the pen is mightier than the sword and we might also incidentally add that the "pen" is bigger than the County jail.
—That some people appear to be more saintly than others because they are too "cheap" to buy a little fun. True Betty true.
—That the difference between a wise man and a fool is that the wise man keeps his counsel and the fool lets all of what he has—out.
—That the Midsummer Fashion Show and Ball at Convention Hall July 5 will be the swellest affair ever given in Kansas City. Getter go.
—That the Negro who will not pay his subscription bill for a paper like the Sun which he has received regularly each week is the kind of a Negro whom you cannot afford to trust under any circumstances. I say so. Sam.
—That the "Open Season" for shooting men by women has apparently arrived and to read of a number of occurrences of that kind during the past week especially among the Cullid people makes the men shudder.
---
—That a certain married woman who had been making "the rounds" one bright moonlight evening recently was feeling very jubilant when just as she emerged from a certain well known buffet flat, she confronted her husband. He immediately en deavoured to do away with all the jubilant feeling that she possessed before encountering him. Well we reckon so.

FOOD FOR FANS
The Monarchs have had what might be called a week with the Minors. They went up to Omaha to prove to the Armours team of that city that Negroes can play as classy as the biggest leaguers. Perhaps Sunday's doubleheader was the most interesting of the series. The whites blanked the blacks in the first game. The Armour's pitcher is credited with having everything, but the Monarchs couldn't find anything he had, ad parently. The goods were delivered, but there was nobody there to receive them for the whole nine rounds. So the Armour's won out by anxing four runs for themselves and persistently denying one little run to the Monarchs. The second game was so different. The tables were turned. Donaldson was on the mound. Wisecres have doped this fellow out as only able to travel a seventy per cent gait where he used to travel a hundred, but he is constantly upsetting the theories of these bigoted dopesters. He suffered the whites to connect safely only three times with the wary curves, and won his game four to one, all but retaliating with the same result handed to the Monarchs in the first game.
Chicago Giants Play Today.
Comes a new aggregation from northeastern parts. Says the Judge: "Prisoner at the bar, what is your name." Prisoners, in a chorus: "We are the Chicago Giants!" Judge: "You are charged with playing good ball, guilty or not guilty." Prisoners, "GUILTY." Judge: "Then I sentence you to five days at Association Park at hard labor, your time to start today at three o'clock. There will be a number of Monarchs out there to see that you (don't) hit the ball, however, you are expected to strenuously try."
"Percentage."
Naturally all newspaper offices have been besieged with questions asking why the standing of the teams are not given in the papers. We are bold enough to say that this information will be forthcoming in a short time. But the fans should remember that the league is burdened with incompleteness and the difficulties attending a first thing and a first year to of the same. It is possible, however, to get a record of all games won and lost by the various teams of the league. Then we can at least give the per centage of games played, won and lost. It is probable that there are many who would like to know how the percentage is determined. For the benefit of those we point out the following: First add the games lost to the games won. Second divide the games won by the first result and the final result will represent the correct percentage. Example: According to available figures, the Monarchs have, up to date, won ten games and lost twelve. Now we add the twelve lost games to the ten won games and get 22. We now make the ten won games the dividend and twenty-two the divisor, thus giving us the quotient 454.12-22. It should be noted that where the fractional part is more than half the per
BASEBALL—SPORT—MUSIC—THEATRICALS
centage is advanced the full point; if less, the lower figures is given. Discounting the five games the Monarchs played and dropped to Chicago, the standing would be; Won ten and lost seven, and consequently the percentage would be .588. Don't worry, Negro baseball is here to stay. As the days go by The Negro National Baseball League will discover all the essentials of a great organization. As for Kansas City, it has already brought Negroes closer together, and let us not overlook the psychological importance it will have upon the Race mind.
JACK JOHNSON
From the way the local dailies voiciferated last week about Jack Johnson's imminent danger of arrest one would have thought that he would have been behind bars b ythis time. In spite of the systematic demiserring of Johnson, he is still our hero. No tiles of the whites or jealousies of the blacks can turn us rof mthe wonderful admiration we hold for him. When he whipped the over-touted Jeffries at Reno on that memorable "Fourth" he saved the black race from hopeless despair—because the white papers had said, "No Negro could whip a white man." But when Johnson so marvelously out-classed his white opponent, the Anglo-Saxon world dried up. For this demonstration of Johnson's most Negroes admire him, regardless of the color of the woman he married—the rightly figure that to be HIS business! C. S.

DIAMONDS AND HEARTS.
The Closing Play of the Season by Mrs. Osborne for Queen Beatrice Temple and Queen Esther House Proved to Be the Most Interesting of all the Plays This Season.
An appreciative audience enthusiastically cheered and stormed from beginning to end and was sorry when the curtain fell on the last act, at the Auditorium Theatre Friday night when a cast full of pep scored thrilling climaxes in Diamonds and Hearts and the Jackson Jubilee Concert Co. and the Southern Melody Quartette carried the house by storm in the renditions of many popular numbers suited for the occasion. There was not a single criticism to be offered. The audience was just Well Pleased, that is all.
The winsome and appealing role of Bernice was played by Mrs. Ethel Shores. Never has Mrs. Shores talent been so unstintingly praised as I n'the denouncing scenes which she so well accomplished in Diamonds and Hearts. Mrs. Genevieve Allen, full of fun, and knowing how to make an old farmer tell his secrets; Mrs. Blanche Conway, the demure little visitor whose pleasure was so often interrupted by Bernice's plot to fool the young doctor, both exceptionally good; Lemial Fitzpatrick as the new Doctor was all right, he played his part with ease and the dignity of a professional man; Mrs. Ida M. Burch was a typical aristocratic woman of wealth and Ulysses Surratt her son, who had never worked but always asked for what he wanted, even to the asking of his mother to give him Bernice, his wife, took the house by storm. Both were unsurpassed in their respective roles: Mable Grant as "Sis" and George Walker as "Bub" kept the audience convulsed with laughter from the moment they stepped on the stage until the end of their act with their original line of chatter, trying to explain to the School Ma'am; while headline honors un doubtedly go to Mrs. Shores, Mrs. Burch and Mr. Surratt it was a close second by Mrs. Grant and Mr. Walker; Terrill Taylor was a show in him himself the clever way he portrayed Sammy was pleasing; Horace Conway as Attorney was a favorite, his business air and the handling of the sitation captivated his audience; Dave Blackstone should apply for a position on the police force. He handled the role of Sheriff to perfection, both looking and acting the part.
The Temple and Royal House realized over $300.00 clear. Mrs. Fitzhuhe received the first prize, $15.00. Mrs. Cheatum the second, $10.00. Mr. James Sprangles and his Associate Ushers from New Era Lodge know how to handle the people at the Auditorium Theatre.
HOUDINI IN THE MOST AMAZING PICTURE EVER PRODUCED.
Actual Airplane Collision Occurred In the Paramount-Artcraft Production of the Grim Game.
Houdini, the world's famous hand-cuff king, who for many years has been the highest priced vaudeville artist, will appear Sunday, June 27th, at the Lincoln Theatre in a play that has been spoken of as the greatest thriller ever filmed—The Grim Game. Thrills and mystery that keeps one's eyebrows and guesser constantly airward permeates the story. It is really an example of what interesting and absorbing heights mystery and spectacular photo-drama may progress when written, directed and acted by specialists in thrills and action. Combining dare-deviltry with his familiar wizardry in getting out of tight places, Houdini presents an entertainment entirely and novel—different in every respect from anything ever produced in the history of moving pictures.
To avoid the thought that may come to many that the "Grim Game" is a serial, the Lincoln Theatre management through Mr. Goldman, desires to make it clear to the public that it is a high class drama-feature, "Houdini has appeared in a wonderful serial which was followed by millions of movie fans, and many who are ordinarily not fans. The novelty of his acting, his escapes and the wonder of his mastery over handcuffs lock-doors, cells and other such subjects of restraint, has amazed the public more than any other star on the screen. After his tremendous success in the serial, the Famous Players Corporation who produce the famous Paramount-Arcterych Pictures, contracted Houdini for a series of big superfeatures, of which The Grim Game is the first. Everyone, young or old, male or female, likes the sensational, and this is true with the most intelligent as well as the plainest. The higher a persons intelligence, the greater is his enjoyment of thrilling stories and plays. It is the proper diversion for teh mind that dwells upon business and matters of affair at other times. Grim Game is a picture that will attract every one with red blood and a desire to see greater things than the ordinary run of things."
A word may be said about the writer of the story, "The Grim Game." Arthur B. Reeves stands for the name of an author who is both unique and popular in the world of fiction. His wonderful "Craig Kennedy" stories, combining a rare knowledge of science with an inimitable talent for blending this knowledge into mystery, detective stories, has made his name a household word. After these stories appeared several serials which have been followed by thousands and thousands of people. Mr. Reeves has no equal today in his art.
In the picture, Houdini is at his
best, performing all of the escapes for which he is famous. Those who will see this picture will wonder at the wonderful tricks that he performs in front of their own eyes. And with it all comes a wonderful story that will always be remembered.
CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Twenty-fourth and Woodland Ave.
William Alphin, Minister
The week of evening services and Sunday service were very helpful for the church. All the organizations who so kindly accepted fellowship brought us programs that were richly worth while and appreciated. The attendance was not large at any service, and not at any time overflowing, but each night had an attendance of the class of people from whom the best results may be expected from such classic programs. There was not a poor number rendered on any of the evening programs. The verdict is they were timely and helpful meetings along absolutely wise and essential lines. The church and its mission, and these organizations and their missions were brought on closer terms and greater fellowship. The Church is very thankful to each organization and each one who brought to us a messages. It was one of, if not the greatest days in our history. The actual report showed the membership had increased more than one hundred and fifty per cent in the last four years; the weekly offering had increased more than oen hundred per cent; that all financial obligations due June 1st paid and a nice balance on 1st Elder A. W. Jacobs of Fort Worth, Tex., preached two scriptural, simple and practical sermons. He is a strong young man in the Christian ministry. He is a young man who has had to make his opportunities and then make good with his opportunities.
Both he and his messages were a great inspiration to the Church. At 3:30 P. M. Mr. R. A. Long gave a very plain, simple and earnest talk on "Good Citizenship." Many were glad to see for the first time and shake hands with Mr. Long. His talk made it clear and plain that good citizenship must come from and is the result of the Church in the Community. Mr. Long expressed himself and acted and spoke as if he was as much delighted to be with us and speak to us as we were to have him. The Choir was at its best all day and rendered a willing and very helpful service during the week's pro
