MAN IS FREED OF ASSAULT CHARGE VOLUME III, NO. 40 PROMINENT RACE WOMAN REAPS FINAL REWARD Pilgrim Pastor Cites Her Exemplary Life as a Christian Worker A beautiful life came to a close on Tuesday morning, January 6th at 10:55, when Mrs. Lula Chapman beloved wife of Richard B. Chapman, and only sister of Mrs. W. F. Francis, 2092 Sargent ave., entered peacefully into that last long sleep at Ancker hospital after many months of suffering. Her death though momentarily expected came as a distinct shock to many of her friends who did not realize her serious condition as she had always borne her illness with unusual fortitude. Possessed of a remarkable personality she easily acquired a large number of friends in church and social circles. For thirty eight years she was a faithful worker and member of Pilgrim Baptist church retaining thruout that period her membership in the Sunday school. Like a radiant sunbeam scattering its rays of light she appeared, willing to perform her part no matter how difficult the task. Unselfish devotion marked her home life; a splendid helpmate to her husband and a boon companion to her only sister she was an exceptional character. Funeral Thursday Afternoon Impressiveness and Solemnity marked the funeral rites which were held Thursday afternoon. Brief services conducted at the home of her sister Mrs. W. T. Francis preceded the final rites at 2:30 from Pilgrim Baptist church, corner Cedar and Summit ave. Rev. L. W. Harris, pastor of Pilgrim church officiated, assisted by Rev. C. B. Burton of Memorial Baptist church, Rev. W. H. Griffin of St. James A. M. E. church and Rev. A. H. Lealtad of St. Philip's Episcopal church. The services opened with the hymn "Nearer My God to Thee," followed by prayer by Rev. Burton, a favorite hymn, "Lead Kindly Light," by the choir, Scripture reading, Rev. Lealtad; obituary, Mrs. Birdie High; tenor solo, Mr. Mark Gibbs of Minneapolis. Resolutions from Pilgrim Baptist church were read by Mr. George James, from Everywoman Progressive Council by Mrs. Gladys James and from the Social Literary Society by Mrs. F. L. Hendricks; sermon by Rev. L. W. Harris; a soprano solo "This Is My Task" was rendered by Mrs. Hattie Oliver and "Asleep in Jesus" by the choir as sorrowing friends and relatives filed past her hier paying their last respects. The high esteem in which she was borne by all was attested by the magnificent floral tributes which completely covered the casket and sanctuary rail. Well known citizen, some of whom were life long friends acted as pall bearers. Dr. Valdo Turner, Dr. J. H. Redd of Minneapolis; Messrs. George James, Wm. Hilyard, J. B. Johnson, and Wm. Hood. Interment was held at Oakland cemetery. Simpson and Wills had charge of the funeral arrangements. The death of Mrs. Chapman is a great loss to the community; her absence will be keenly felt by all who knew her. Deepest sympathy is extended to the bereaved family in the hour of their affliction. Obituary. Lula Griswold Chapman, elder daughter of Maggie H. and Thomas H. Griswold, was born in Nashville, Tenn., July 25, 1872. She departed this life on Tuesday, January 6, 1925, at 10:55 A. M. In March, 1881, the father, being one of the two colored members of the city council of Nashville, Tenn. (and J. C. Napier, afterwards Register of the United States Treasury, the other), came with a committee of the Nashville Council to Chicago to inspect the gas plant of that city, and upon that visit he decided that the educational advantages of the Northwest should be given his little girls. Accordingly, in 1883, he resigned his position as councilman and (Continued on page 4) BULLETIN-APPEAL Re-elect atExecutive Board Meet Tuesday JOHN H. HARRIS PETER H. Judge John W.

Celebrate Feast Of Epiphany at The St. Phillips Old Traditions Carried Out in Feast. Mrs. Eugene Gough Hostess Next Year The Feast of the Epiphany was celebrated Tuesday evening at St. Philip's Episcopal Church. According to an old tradition, at the smaller Epiphany dinners, when the rector, warden, vestrymen and their wives are entertained, the Epiphany cake which contains the ring is cut and whoever finds the Epiphany ring assumes the hostship for the following year. Mrs. Lawrence McCoy has worn the ring for the past year and was hostess on Tuesday evening, baking a lovely cake. Ice cream was served by the Brotherhood of St. Andrew. Mrs. Eugene Gough received the slice of cake containing the ring, which she will wear until the next feast. Father A. H. Lealtad acted as Master of Ceremonies, introducing in an unique manner various officers and members of organizations of the church, who responded with short speeches. Each told of their willingness to assist in the progress and welfare of the church. A splendid spirit of good will and co-operation prevailed, and a successful year is looked forward to by the members of St. Philip's. Feast Also Called Twelfth Night The feast of the Magi, as Twelfth Night also is called, was in olden days an occasion of festivities in commemoration of the visit of the three wise men to the infant Christ. It also was called the Feast of the Candles, and many entertainments in Episcopal church circles featured candle light illuminations. In circles where the feast is celebrated it is considered a good omen to burn the Christmas greens, and another custom demands that the begin king, or in present days the Epiphany king, he raised to the ceiling to inscribe a cross as a good luck omen THE NORTHWESTERN ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, JANUARY 10, 1925 A LETTER TO THE PUBLIC The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has abundantly justified its existence by the benefits which it has obtained for the Negro people of the United States. It will obtain more. Not only will it spread the enlightenment which will surely lead to the complete protection of civil rights, but it will, also propose, foster and promote well-devised measures for the social, moral and intellectual advancement of all those American citizens who have, hitherto, been placed at a disadvantage on account of race or color. The St. Paul Branch of the great National Association is in a flourishing condition. It has contributed more than its quota of financial support to the national organization. It is prepared to do greater things in the future. If supported, as it ought to be, it will establish a fund, of large proportions, which will be used as a foundation for scholarships in the great Universities; such scholarships to be competed for by the brightest of the Negro youth of Minnesota. All memberships in the Association expire at the close of each calendar year and must be renewed at the beginning of the next calendar year. Therefore, at the present time, the St. Paul Branch calls upon all the people of the City of St. Paul, regardless of race, to become members of this great Society and to aid in effecting its most laudable purposes. The St. Paul Branch has, recently, constituted, as its official organ in the field of journalism, the excellent newspaper known as the "Northwestern Bulletin- Appeal." The annual fee paid by members of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is the sum of one dollar; but the St. Paul Branch has, furthermore, arranged with the publisher of the "Bulletin- Appeal" to furnish a year's subscription to that newspaper at a price exactly one-half of the ordinary annual subscription price. That is, every one becoming a member of the National Association and paying a dollar as his membership fee, may have a year's subscription to the "Bulletin- Appeal" for a dollar more; making a membership and a subscription together cost each person only two dollars. The newspaper, in my opinion, is conducted in an excellent manner and is full of most valuable material for thought and for the encouragement of our splendid enterprise. I appeal, most urgently, to all friends of humanity, to become members of our great Society. JOHN W. WILLIS, President, St. Paul Branch of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCE OF COLORED PEOPLE.

In England and France the old custom was that of putting a bean in the Epiphany cake and the finder of this either became the bean king or the bean queen as the case happened to be. The more poetic emblem, the ring, now takes the place of a bean. LEGION POST HOLDS ELECTION OF OFFICERS Leslie Lawrence Auxiliary and Post of the American Legion held their first meeting of the new year, and election of officers. Miss Jeska Oden was unanimously re-elected president of the Auxiliary, being admirably adapted for that position; Mrs. Jessie Brown, secretary; Mrs. Urlin Clark, assistant secretary, and Mrs. George Hamilton, treasurer. The officers elected for the Post are George Manning, commander; Jose Sherwood, First Vice-president; Wm. Clark, second Vice-president; Wm. Hall, Finance Officer, and Leslie Talbert, Sergeant-at Arms. After the business sessions the remainder of the evening was spent in dancing. Music was furnished by Mr. John T. Jones. A number of visitors were present from the newly organized Johnny Baker Post in Minneapolis. League Secretary Addresses Lions Club Mr. E. A. Carter, secretary of the St. Paul Urban League, was the guest of the St. Paul Lions Club at their weekly luncheon, Monday at the St. Paul Hotel. The members of the club, which is composed of business and professional men, listened to the address of Mr. Carter with rapt attention, and at the close expressed their appreciation and sympathy by enthusiastic and prolonged applause. The keynote of the address was a plea for larger opportunity for the colored citizens of St. Paul in industrial and commercial fields. --- JOHN W. WILLIS. Prominent Business Man of Minneapolis J.

GOVERNOR ASKS REORGANIZATION OF GOVERNMENT GOVERNOR ASKS REORGANIZATION OF GOVERNMENT Stirs Solons by Most Complete Constructive Program Offered In Generation A message with more jolt to it than ever was given to a Minnesota legislature was read this morning to the house and senate by Theodore Christianson when he became governor. The message was exceptionally brief—only 4,000 words—but in that short space Gov. Christianson said more than has been said by all other governors in inaugural addresses in a generation. He demanded economy and asked reorganization of the state government, pointing out precisely how the legislature can go about the job of instituting the reforms he advocated. Houses Meet Jointly The inaugural ceremonies in house chamber at a joint session of the two legislative bodies were extremely impressive. The big room was gorgeously decorated for the occasion. All available room was taken by the throng which witnessed the program. Hundreds of others jammed hallways outside, unable to gain admittance. The senate convened this morning at 10 o'clock and the house a half hour earlier. At 11 a. m. they met in joint session. Committees from each body escorted Gov. J. A. O. Preus and the new executive down the middle aisle, after senators had marched in as a body and taken seats with the house members. Johnson Presides Among the spectators on the floor were Gov. Christianson's wife, her mother and his two sons. The family of Gov. Preus also was present. Speaker John A. Johnson of the house presided. Alongside him sat Lieut. Gov. W. I. Nolan, who began his duties yesterday as presiding officer of the senate. After a roll call of members, Speaker Johnson presented Gov. Preus, who delivered his farewell address, reviewing the achievements of the four years of his administration. Then Mr. Christianson took the oath of office, given by Chief Justice Samuel B. Wilson, state supreme court, and at that moment Gov. Preus became a private citizen for the first time, with the exception of a few weeks in 1909, since he was graduated from the law college of the University of Minnesota. In Office 15 Years He also was without a position in the capitol for the first time in 15 years. After completing his law course, Gov. Preus went to Washington as a clerk to the late Sen. Knute Nelson. He was promoted until he became Sen. Nelson's secretary. In 1909 he resigned this position and opened a law office at Ada, Minn. He had been there but a short time when Gov. John A. Johnson died and was succeeded by A. O. Eberhart, then lieutenant governor. Gov. Preus was offered the position of executive clerk to the governor. He accepted it and closed his law office. In 1912 he was appointed state insurance commissioner and held this office until elected state auditor in 1914. He was re-elected in 1918 and in 1920 he was elected governor, and re-elected in 1922. Quits Capitol as Private Citizen Only a little more than an hour after giving his farewell message to the Legislature, J. A. O. Preus wound up his duties as Governor of Minnesota today and unostentiously quit the Capitol. There was no formality in his leavetaking. His last act in the Governor's private office was to write a personal letter in long hand and inclose it in an envelope, which he addressed and stamped. Then he turned to a newspaper man who was the only other occupant of the room. (Continued on page 4) New State Executive Inducted Into Office PETER B. Governor Theodore Christianson Appointed Executive Messenger at Capitol PETER H. William F. Williams, popularly known as "Billy" Williams, today was re-appointed executive messenger to the governor. This appointment was announced by Gov. Theodore Christianson as one of his first acts. "Billy" Williams, with the expiration of his term as messenger to Gov. Preus, completed 20 years of continuous service on the job, and during that time he has become known as the man who knows more public men than any other man in the state. Prior to starting his 20-year term he was messenger under Gov. John A. Lind, but he was out of office during the term of Gov. Van Sant. ACCEPTS POSITION WITH NEW YORK URGAN LEAGUE Another Minnesota young woman has accepted a position with the Urban League in the person of Mrs. Dorothy Steele of Minneapolis, who left Saturday evening for New York, where she will be employed on the staff of "Opportunity," the official organ of the Urban League. Mrs. Steele is an expert stenographer, having been in the employ of the Woman's Christian Association. Miss Ethel Ray of Duluth, Minn., accepted a position with the Urban League in Kansas City, Mo., later she was transferred to New York City, where she is now employed. Mr. James W. Bolden, formerly with The Helper, is now associated with the Bulletin-Apeal in the capacity of Business Manager, with entire charge, where he will be pleased to meet his many friends and public in general. Mr. Bolden was connected with the St. Paul post office for a number of years, and is favorably known in the city. He will be pleased to serve you in any matter of advertising printing and news items, and all matters entrusted to him will receive prompt and courteous attention. Shop Every Week in the Bulletin- Appeal The Dependable Medium PRICE: FIVE CENTS COLORED WOMAN ACCUSES MAN OF ASSAULT IN SUIT COLORED WOMAN ACCUSES MAN OF ASSAULT IN SUIT Attempted Blackmail Is Charged by Defendant in Answer to Base Suit. Joseph J. Jwanouskos, white, 863 Lakeview avenue, building contractor, was made defendant in an action for damages by Mrs. Beulah N. B. Yourey, 39 Manitoba street. The case was tried by Judge Boerner in district court on the 5th and 6th instant, before a jury, and the defendant was found not guilty as alleged. Mrs. Yourey is a Negro woman, a native of Jamaica, one of the West Indian Islands, and has been a resident of this city several years. She is a member of St. Philip's Episcopal Church and enjoys a reputation for respectability. She is a widow, uneducated, with two children, a boy and a girl. The boy is a high school student. She is a poor woman, working by the day as a charwoman, or washerwoman. In her complaint she alleged that while working in the basement of an apartment building at 810 Grand avenue the defendant requested her to call at his office across the street when she had finished, as he desired her to clean his office. This she did when through, and immediately upon her entrance to his office he inquired as to whether she had a husband or not. Upon being told that she was a widow he said that that was good and for her to hang her cloak in the closet. Locks Front Door Unbeknown to her he locked the front door, and while she was still in the closet he embraced her and made improper advances. She repulsed his attack and in the struggle fell through a doorway leading to the basement from the closet and severely wrenched her back, and bruised and cut her body. She managed to escape through the basement and made her way home. The following day he called at her home and told her not to do anything about the matter. Not caring for unpleasant notoriously she agreed to accept a cupboard he offered her, and agreed to drop it. He then made another attempt upon her, and tore her skirt from her. She evaded him and threatened to call for help if he did not leave. He left the house from fear of her threat. She then consulted Dr. Turner, who advised her to see a lawyer. She called on Attorney Raymond F. Schroeder, former assistant district attorney, with whom she had had some business relations, and he agreed to take the case. Complaint was drawn and served upon the defendant, who called in person at Mr. Schroeder's office and wanted to know why he would take the case of a black woman against a white man. The attorney told him that he was a lawyer, and as such knew neither race, color or religion in his practice; that he believed her statement to be true and that she was entitled to protection under the law. The defendant then employed Attorney O. H. O'Neil to defend him. Attempted Blackmail Alleged Attempted Blackmail Alleged In O'Neill's answer to the complaint he alleged that it was an attempted blackmail. Later the defendant personally called at the office of Mr. Schroeder, requesting that the matter be withdrawn, offering to pay the costs but denying his guilt. Mr. Schroeder said "that if you can convince me in the presence of the plaintiff that you are not guilty I will acquiesce." Mrs. Yourey then confronted the defendant and told the same story that she had sworn to in the complaint. This enraged the defendant to the extent that he called her a vile name. He was then ordered to leave Mr. Schroeder's office at once or be thrown out. The defendant's attorney next talked with Mr. Schroeder and offered an insignificant amount if the case was withdrawn. Mr. Schroeder contended that the plaintiff had been damaged and abused and should be reasonably compensated.

Succinct, trite, laconic and business-like was Governor Christianson's inaugural message to the Legislature. The new governor proposes reforms that will reduce expenditures and lower taxation. Mr. Christianson brings to his office a ripe and varied experience. He is a product of this state—graduate of the University, lawyer, farmer, editor and publisher and business man. For more than a decade he has been a useful member of the Legislature. He knows the needs of the farmer, the laborer, the professional and business man, perhaps more than any other man in the state. His message is characteristic of a man of action rather than words. In the prime of life, with all of his powers attuned for service to the commonwealth, Minnesota exhibited a fine sense of judgment when it selected Theodore Christianson as its leader. We have been behind the Governor from the start, even before his nomination, and we are proud of the part we have taken in contributing our mite towards his election. May our group share consideration when occasion demands new appointments under his administration. We trust that Governor Christianson's administration will be a highly successful one. FOLLOWING STRANGE GODS ment number of the Crisis, the voice of the man article from the pen of its distinguisher, tempts to justify its "stand for the indict Negro vote." That so fine an organ, amplishment for good to its credit—should all politics is to be regretted. It reflects personality of one man. This is new, running away from political pie hunters than a decade ago—when the editor of the democratic party and seeking the fate in the hope of getting a particular piece that morsel failed to materialize, the toot and solace by forming a strong sympathetic almost became a communist.

A little of the Coolidge philosophy of cott might not be amiss and could be adopted from his personal contact with democratic learn to eat his crow gracefully and w The current number of the Crisis, the voice of the N. A. A. C. P., contains an article from the pen of its distinguished editor, in which he attempts to justify its "stand for the independence of the intelligent Negro vote." That so fine an organization—with so much accomplishment for good to its credit—should be brought into the mire of politics is to be regretted. It reflects the sordid disappointed personality of one man. This is revealed by the reference to "running away from political pie hunters." Time was—not more than a decade ago—when the editor of the Crisis was flirting with the democratic party and seeking the favor of Woodrow Wilson in the hope of getting a particular piece of diplomatic pie. When that morsel failed to materialize, the temperamental gentleman found solace by forming a strong sympathy for soviet Russia, and almost became a communist. Having a somewhat exaggerated egoism it was but natural that in the last national election to find him aligned with one afflicted with the same malady—Senator LaFollette. Presumably they are both in accord as to the forces that brought about the defeat of the latter's political ambitions, and kept the former from the pie counter; namely, that 95 per cent of the voters of the U. S. are suffering from arrested mental development. While the editor has a right to follow strange gods, in matters political, he has not the right to use the N. A. A. C. P. as a background for propaganda or to promote his personal interest. In as much as he essays to speak for the intelligent Negro it, perhaps, has never occured to the cultured editor that that individual is able to speak for himself. The editor should not take himself too seriously. He is a weathervane and iconoclast by nature; for which he is not responsible. He is a victim of complexes. However, the editor, has his place for useful service to the race. He should continue to occupy the chair he now holds, but steer the N. A. A. C. P. clear of the muddy waters of politics. A little of the Coolidge philosophy of common sense and silence might not be amiss and could be adopted to good advantage. From his personal contact with democratic friends the editor should learn to eat his crow gracefully and without a wry face.

No other word in the lexicon of any language has such a bearing upon human conduct as the word—habit. It may be classified as both good and bad—constructive and destructive. Three factors are potent in the formation of a habit, i.e. Following the least resistance—the easy way; environment; emotionalism. All three, when applied to habit, show about the same thing as to origin—mental passivity and lack of will power. Yet, results may be either good or bad. The human animal is in character, simian. By nature he is imitative'. Mimicry affords the least resistance. Should environment, during the period of adolescence, be of the right kind with wholesome incentive—it will have a constructive, or good, influence in the formation of habits. The converse is true when the environment is of a low order. Its effect will prove destructive. Emotionalism—to be emotional, that is inordinately emotional, with will power lacking as a balance, is as dangerous as a ship without a pilot or rudder—a derelict. Such a condition may be either harmless in a human being or harmful, as the case may be. Thru the emotions, weak willed people, or people utterly without any will power whatever, are easily excited, and may be carried into a frenzy of fervor, religious, political, or mob violence. They are subjects that compose the great body of followers of false leadership. They are unfortunate creatures of circumstances; not really or intentionally bad at heart. They are called by alienists—morons. Habits—good or bad—when once formed grow with tremendous prolificacy. The danger that threatens society today is the social condition. Some corrective measure must be brought forth that will change matters or the entire social body will be ruined. Habits of hatred must be overcome by the formation of habits of love. Habits of intolerance must be supplanted with habits of patience. Habits of extravagance and waste must be succeeded by habits of thrift and economy. Habits of prejudice of whatever nature—racial or religious—must be exterminated or else they will exterminate us. In short, we must get at the root of the evil and in its place plant seeds of love, patience and kindness. The time to start is opportune; it should not be delayed. The church, the school, and the business house, are the places where this work should begin. Then civic and social organizations should take it up. Why send missionaries to the heathen abroad and overlook the heathen at our door?

THE Us from Our E The "show me" type of man hails from Missouri. He is a product of the middle west—a doubting Thomas. However, the empire state of New York won honors for an appellation much earlier than the western state. It became famous for the, "me too," type. It is still within the memory of the living to recall the action of the late Senator Platte, when he resigned his seat as a member of the senate, following in the steps of Roscoe Conkling. He won the title of, "Me too." Now comes, James W. Johnson, erstwhile government employee in the consular service, and the present secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. Johnson has become saturated with the theory of the college professor with whom he is in close contact. He has been offering advice as to the independence of the Negro in politics. The Negro's right to vote as he sees fit is without question, and intelligent members of the race exercise that right when occasion demands it. For Mr. Johnson, or any other official of the N. A. A.

P., to advise the race in matters political—other than to state facts as to the status of parties—seems an attempt to coerce its members into following the fortunes of those self appointed leaders, who are loud to acclaim where they stand, personally. We are trying to emancipate the "me too" type of Negro and in his place produce a Negro that will do his own thinking and select the party that suits him best. We would advise that officers of the N. A. A. C. P. keep the organization clear of political pitfalls. We realize, however, that the weather is severely cold, and it is a hard thing to be on the outside; but as we make our bed, we must occupy it. To Our Subscribers and Friends Recently we stated our case to the public in the hope that the public would respond to our appeal for their co-operation and help. We know that every loyal member of the race—man, woman and child—would painfully regret to have the Bulletin-Appeal suspend publication. We, ourselves, perhaps, would regret such an occurrence more than any one else, as there never has been a time when the race needed an aggressive newspaper in this section of the United States more than at this very moment. This is your voice—your mouthpiece—your paper. The publisher has only a proprietary interest in it—aside from the pride it gives him to produce such a journal. He has no advantage over you whatever, but on the contrary is at a disadvantage, as he is the one to pay the bills and assume all responsibility. However, we all gain by having a strong paper. You can do no greater thing to promote the welfare of this paper than to co-operate with us in every way. You are all consumers—you must eat—buy food, clothing, fuel, and other necessities. This is your paper. Why not say to the merchant to whom you pay your money, "do you advertise in the Bulletin-Appeal?" If he is not an advertiser, ask him point blank for his patronage. If he is willing to spend a little money in your paper for the trade he enjoys thru you and your friends, then call us up and let us know where he is located. We will immediately have one of our representatives attend to the matter by a personal call. Remember that this is your paper. Its success or failure is in your hands. We must co-operate in our fight for continuance. Gleanings from Our Exchanges The American Baptist comments editorially upon having passed its 47th year under the personal supervision of the same editor, Wm. H. Steward. Prior to the time that Mr. Steward took charge of it the paper had existed under the name of the "Baptist Herald" for six years. We felicitate with the veteran editor and the American Baptist. Both have served the church and race well. Few men have had a longer and more honorable career than Wm. H. Steward. His devotion to the upbuilding of the Negro has been singular and outstanding. May he and his good paper continue their usefulness for many years to come. We read with unalloyed pleasure the "Musings on the passing of the old year," by T. Thomas Fortune, in the Negro World. Time has not soured the soul of the dean of Negro journalists. He is still optimistic for Mr. J. W. Jackson, 892 Rice St. was called to Oswego, Kan., Sunday, on account of the death of his father, J.

The hall was filled with a typical holiday crowd, which heartily applauded the pretty models as they promenaded in the latest fashions of sport, afternoon and evening, wear to the strains of syncopated music furnished by Steven's Harmony Kings with Sydney Williams at the piano. The models were little Miss Edith Webb, the Misses Irene McGavock, Rachel James, Alice Joyce, Henrietta Bonaparte, Evelyn Kelly, Mattie and Babe Murray, Christine Cox and Mrs. Aaron McGavock. A novel feature was introduced when little Miss Laure Hall, attired in a paper dress with hat to match, covered with Bulletin-Appeal streamers, stories and advertisements, promenaded as Miss Bulletin-Appeal, with a basket containing subscription blanks which she distributed to the audience. A subscription campaign has been inaugurated by the Bulletin-Appeal, hoping to place a copy in each home of our group. Several subscriptions were received at the hall. The publisher, Mr. Owen Howell, was introduced by Attorney Francis and enthusiastically received by the audience. Mr. Howell stated that he has always borne the financial deficit, but he hopes that the public will respond in the future and help put the medium on a financial basis. His parting remarks were that each subscriber should read the paper, then tear it up instead of letting your neighbor and others borrow it. If they want the news, let them subscribe or buy the paper. This remark elicited great applause. After the revue danced last until seven o'clock; this fair was one of the stellar events of the New Year and an overwhelming success. SURVEY IS MADE OF BIRD BANDING Terns Migrate From Kennebec to the Niger. Washington.—From the banks of the Kennebec to those of the Niger—that is the journey accredited to a common term by the biological survey of the United States Department of Agriculture, which is now receiving many interesting returns from the bird-banding work at one of its bird colonies in Lake Michigan last year. Among the other interesting reports growing out of this work are those pertaining to three Caspian terns, which were located in Colombia, South America. These were found just at the time when bird banding was being done at the original colony in Michigan this year, thereby proving that the young birds do not breed in their first year. According to the agricultural experimenters two Caspian terns were reported found in Nova Scotia and many others were discovered along the routes to the latter country and South America. Those found en route, the investigators say, show what course is followed by the migrating birds between their summer and winter homes. With the growing interest in the procedure the department has only recently published a list of instructions concerning the practical significance of bird banding, as well as some of its history. This form of identification in America dates from the time of Audubon, who about 1803 placed silver threads around the legs of a brood of phoebes and was rewarded the following season by having two of his marked birds return to nest in the same vicinity. Although bird "ringing" was attempted in Europe as early as 1710 it was almost 200 years later, in 1890, that systematic work was undertaken. Started in 1901. The earlier investigators, according to the recent report, marked their birds by dyeing or staining the flight or tail feathers, attaching memoranda written on parchment, or mutilating feathers, feet or bill. In this country active experimental work was begun in 1901, when aluminum bands were attached to the legs of the birds. The results were so satisfactory and stimulated so much interest that eight years later the American Bird Banding association was organized in New York city. Subsequent study has revealed that two principal lines of research must be given special attention. First of these is the banding of fledglings and the second, the systematic trapping and banding of adults. The latter is the more significant because the older birds give the most information on bird habits. Trapping is accomplished by various snares, one of the popular ones being the "Government" sparrow trap, a funnel-shaped device of wire and hardware cloth easily made even by the novice and very effective. Others which the department recommends are the well-known drop trap, the door of which is suspended until the unwary bird makes for the bait, when it drops down and shuts in the victim. The department, to be able to study even more closely than heretofore the life histories of birds, urgently requests the co-operation of naturalists whose casual discoveries of wayfaring band-bearing birds might be well worth reporting. In this way the governmental investigators expect to solve the many problems which previously have baffled the ornithologist. Among these are the speed with which individuals of any species may travel on their periodic migrations, the possible vanguard formed by one flock for others and the advance made by successive flocks passing one over the other in alternate periods of rest and flight. Questions to Be Answered. Other questions which can be answered by bird-banding operations are: Do individuals of any species always follow the same route, and is the route the same for both spring and fall flights? Do migrating birds make the same stop-over every year to feed? How long do birds remain in one locality during the migration, the breeding or the winter season? What is the relation between the breeding and the wintering grounds of individuals; that is, do those birds that breed farthest north winter farthest south, thus jumping over those that occupy the intermediate zone, or do they merely replace the latter individuals as winter residents? To what region do the birds go, particularly the young, that do not return to the vicinity of their original nests? Do birds adopt the same nesting area, nest site and winter quarters in successive seasons? For how many broods will one pair remain mated, and which bird, if not both, is attracted next year to the old nesting site? To what extent do males of a species assist in incubation and brooding? How far from their nests do birds forage for food, and after the young have left the nest will the parent birds bring them to the feeding and trapping station? Fifty Aerial Torpedoes Stolen From U. S. Magazine San Diego, Cal.-Fifty aerial torpedoes have been stolen from secret reserve ammunition magazines on Point Loma, near here, and United States naval officers and police are worried about the possible uses to which they may be put.

I interpreted the significance of the article as being a deliberate effort on the part of the United Press, either to justify those southern towns which exclude Negroes from their population, or to accuse Negroes of being inconsistent when they complain because of this exclusion. The article says, "Flared across Boley's main street was a sign with the inscription, 'White Man, Don't Let the Sun Set on Your Head.' Needless to add, white persons avoided remaining long in Boley." The article continues by saying, "The sign was removed by the federal officials upon order of the post office department, which threatened to discontinue the post office here unless it was removed." I submitted an article to the Minneapolis Journal, which was published in Monday's issue, challenging the truthfulness of the statements mentioned above, and stating that a white person visiting Boley would have no occasion whatever to feel the least uneasy because of fear of being harmed or treated with the slightest disrespect by the colored inhabitants. Incidentally I mentioned the fact that there are two other incorporated towns, besides Boley, well and efficiently governed, inhabited exclusively by Negroes. I mean, of course, in the United States. The real challenge in my article was deliberately omitted by the Journal, consequently, forcing the reader to arrive at the only logical conclusion left for him, namely, that I was challenging the truthfulness of the statement made by the United Press, that Boley, Okla., is the only city in the United States inhabited exclusively by Negroes. In forensic debate, we would call such an omission "garbling," the most unfair and unethical strategy to which a speaker can possibly resort in attempting to win some controversial point from his opponent. If my article which was submitted to the Journal has any teeth in it at all, they are imbedded in that challenge and statement which was intentionally omitted by the Journal. My only purpose in referring this matter to the columns of the Bulletin-Appeal is to emphasize our utter helplessness as a race without a strong Negro press to fight our battles for us. The white newspapers, in order to give their articles comic value, will deliberately misrepresent us in matters that tend to subject us to the severest sort of criticisms. If a colored person submits an article which reveals the misrepresentation and exposes its falsity, the managing editor of the White daily abridges and revises the article to such an extent, if he publishes it at all, that it is rendered absolutely worthless as a corrective measure. How absolutely essential, therefore, it is to our reputation as a race, and to our progress as well, for us to strengthen and support our Negro press, for after all, we must rely upon it, finally, to spread the truth concerning our achievements and advancement, and to correct the misrepresentations and falsehoods that are circulated about us. Not until we realize the power and influence of a strong Negro press, and not until we give it our full patronage and wholehearted support, shall we be at the beginning of making ourselves the great and powerful people our capabilities enable us to be. The United Press originated the charge that in the colored towns inhabited and governed exclusively by Negroes, white visitors are in danger of great violence at the hands of the colored population, and the Minneapolis Journal and other big white dailies of this country have waffted this charge to the four corners of the earth. Many people, far and near, will believe this charge, some from sleer meanness and prejudice, and others because there is no channel through which the truth may reach them. By inference the purpose of the charge is to silence our complaints against mob violence, and to brand us as being inconsistent, if, in our grief and indignation, we protest against the outrages which we must for a time yet suffer. Our Negro press is powerless because of greatly inadequate support, to rectify this terrible wrong. After all, the fault is ours. How long shall we allow our indifference to continue? How long shall we let our task remain undone? GEO. G. DeVAUGHN The Booker T. Washington Study Club holds its regular meeting Tuesday afternoon.

CEDAR 0555 Page 3 Page 4 (Continued from page 1) eame to St. Paul, Minn., where later, in March, 1884, the little family was domiciled under the same apartment roof with the Fogg family, also former residents of Nashville. The following summer of 1884 was spent at White Bear Lake, Thomas Griswold being employed by Ralston Markoe of the Chat-o-gay Hotel. Little Lula, then 12 years of age, was very musical, and because of this talent the girls were frequently included in the hotel programs arranged for the guests. Splendid Church Worker When returning to the city in the fall, living on Sixth St., near Cedar, the family became workers in Pilgrim. Lula, a little missionary, gathered Sunday School children, among them Mrs. Leona Mason Giles and brother. Because of her peculiar musical ability, Lula was pressed into service in the church and Sunday School of both Pilgrim Baptist and St. James' A. M. E. Churches. She was much in demand as a preferred accompanist in the life of the colored folks of St. Paul and Minneapolis. And for several years, though the organist of Pilgrim, the little check was regularly paid, but as regularly turned back to the church by Lula as her contribution to the prosperity of the choir. She gathered the musical talent of St. Paul around Pilgrim Choir and at services and entertainments, Mrs. Bertha Heatcock Wilson, Mr. Will Hilyard, Mrs. Belle Clay, Charles Mason, Prof. Luca, Mrs. Maggie Irvin and other prominent musicians of that day became identified with the progress of Pilgrim Church. In the work of the church bazzars equally faithful efforts were put into her booth or her concerts, and a faithful group of workers willingly carried out her splendid plans. She was for years a great asset to the financial programs of the two churches. The present Social and Literary Society of Pilgrim owes its beginning to the efforts of Mrs. Chapman, together with Mrs. Maria King, Mrs. George Wills and others. In 1890 Lula graduated from Central High School, and after receiving a diploma from the Hess Business College she became stenographer for the D. D. Merrill Co., and later for many years until her marriage for the Boston Clothing Co., where she was held in high regard. In 1894 she was married to Thomas R. King, a highly esteemed citizen, attended by Mrs. Florence B. Henley, a lifelong friend. But their happy union was broken by the sudden fatal illness and death of Mr. King in 1900. Later into her life came Richard B. Chapman, who won her for his bride, and they have enjoyed an ideal married life until death claimed Mrs. Chapman last Tuesday morning. She has been a long patient sufferer, and through it all stands out the wonderful devotion of a loving companion. A bulwark of strength to the little sufferer, he helped her bear the pain of years and together they shared life's joys and sorrows. She is also survived by a devoted sister, Mrs. W. T. Francis, from whom she has never been separated in life, also a devoted brother-in-law, Mr. W. T. Francis, who has been nearer and dearer than a brother since he came into the family life; an aged grandmother, Mrs. Nellie Seay, Nashville, Tenn., who now lies prostrate on what may be her deathbed, from the shock of Lula's death—the end of over 100 years of life; two devoted aunts, Mrs. J. Frankie Pierce, formerly of Paris, Texas, who has bestowed upon Mrs. Chapman a tender mother. brother's care for many winters in the Southland during her continued illness, also Mrs. Alice West of Nashville, Tenn.; Dr. L. A. West, noted surgeon of Memphis, Tenn.; Dr. T. G. West, member of Meharry College faculty, Nashville, Tenn., and a large group of family connections through marriage ties, including Mr. and Mrs. Everett Chapman, Mrs. James B. Chapman, Mrs. Trella Chapman Gray, Mrs. Flossie Chapman Ford, Springfield, Ohio; Mr. Wm. Green, Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Tibbs, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. W. James, lifelong family friends; also Mr. and Mrs. E.

END OF THE ROAD (McAvoy) What if the load be hard to bear, And weary the day and far; I have a dream that is wondrous fair, A hope like a shining star. After the dark of the night is fled In the dawn of a day that's new, I will see through the glow of the path ahead The end of the road—and you. The end of the road and rest at last, And happiness past compare, The peace of the dawn about you cast, The gold of the sun in your hair. A haven of hope for love's abode, Roses and birds and dew; This is my heaven—The End of the Road, The End of the Road—and You The following telegram was received from Mrs. Lawrence Knight of Chicago, Ill., cousin of Thomas King: "We send our deepest sympathy to you all. Illness prevents coming." The following additional telegraphic news was received Thursday from Nashville, Tenn.: "We, with many Nashville friends of Lula, extend love and deepest sympathy in this hour. Mother sinking." (Signed) AUNT FRANK, DR. L. A. WEST. PREUS QUITS CAPITOL "I am leaving with no regrets at having been here," he said, referring to his four years as the state's Chief Executive. "I am in as good health, as sound physical shape, as I was when I entered this office four years ago. My nerves are just as good. I have nothing to regret." Then he picked up his hat and coat and walked from the office. He stopped to say a word in parting to Billy Williams, the veteran messenger of the Governor's office, spoke to a few friends who stopped him, and left the building alone, stepping through the outer doors at 1:50 P. M. He had become Mr. Private Citizen Preus, resident of Minneapolis. MAN IS FREED OF ASSAULT CHARGE FOLLOWING SUIT (Continued from page 1) then raised to $100, which was accepted. By stipulation the case was withdrawn from the calendar. After waiting two months or longer for payment to be made he talked with Mr. O'Nell, and the latter said the plaintiff was hard up and unable to pay more than $50 as first payment and the balance soon thereafter. This was agreed upon, but like his other promises failed to mature. Finally Mr. Schroeder made an affidavit and had the case reset for trial. In the meantime O'Neill dropped the matter, for some reason or other, and the plaintiff was represented by Clayton Parks, a young attorney. The case was set for trial December 16, last year, but was postponed until the 5th instant, and occupied the greater part of the 5th and 6th, with the result as aforesaid, the jury finding for the defendant. In the course of the trial, while cross-examining the defendant, quoting from the files of the court, Mr. Schroeder asked the defendant if he had not been sued on a similar charge before. The defendant and his young attorney were taken by complete surprise, but Mr. Schroeder had a copy of the record in his hands, and read from the record, which of course was not admitted in evidence. It referred to the action of Alma Bach vs. Jos. J. Jwanouskos. Former Stenographer Testifies Miss Bach was a former stenographer of the defendant, and alleged in her complaint that for more than a year he had bothered her with improper advances. He finally forcibly succeeded in making a criminal assault upon her at her home. His defense in that action was the same as it was in this case—blackmail. The jury in the Bach case also found him not guilty. It is seemingly strange that this man, who is far from being a man of wealth, having unsatisfied judgments against him should have been selected as a victim of blackmail by two females who charged him with the same kind of offense. We wonder what influence, if any, determined the finding of the jury in both cases. We are particularly anxious to know in the case of Mrs. Yourew whether the fact that she was black, and the plaintiff, white, had anything to do with determining the decision. Attorney Schroeder made a splendid plea that justice should be given, if the facts warranted it, regardless of her nationality. Judge Boener's charge to the jury was equally as fair, and covered the same thing.
