South Carolina Mob Severly Beat Race Man New York, Aug. 14.—Application for the formation of a new branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has come from Hardeeville, South Carolina, as the consequence of the flogging of a colored man by a crowd of whites in that section. The colored man, Joe Jackson, was taken from Hampton County and brought to Hardeeville, where he was lodged in the jail by the town marshal, without the authority of the county from which the colored man was taken, according to the report sent to the N. A. A. C. P. The colored man was placed in jail on Saturday night and on Sunday he was taken out and severely beaten by a mob, "no one knowing the cause of his arrest." The letter reporting this occurrence concludes: "We as a race would like to be connected with this Association (the N. A. A. C. P.) in order that brutal treatment to coloured people might be stopped." The necessary literature has been sent to Hardeeville and reports from there state that the organization of a Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. is under way. CHILDREN'S FETE AT PLAYGROUNDS Welcome Hall Playgrounds will be the scene of a Special Evening Thursday, August 20.

E Son Is Born As Father Faces Bigamy Charge Mrs. Audrey Scott, colored, 552 West Central Avenue, is at Ancker hospital; the mother of a son born Monday. Word was received from Omaha that her husband, Vernon Scott, 29 years old, is being held by request of St. Paul police and faces possible charges of bigamy, abduction, perjury and taking mortgaged property from the state. On December 1, 1924, Scott married Audrey Miller, at Moline, Ill., and a short time later came with her to St. Paul. The couple made their home at 552 West Central Avenue. About four months ago, Scott married a 16-year-old girl here and established a home for her at 494 Rice Street. For more than three months Scott led the fabled double life, telling one "wife" that while he was away from her home he was working. About a month ago Scott took the recent "bride" and died with her to Omaha, driving a car for which he had not yet completely paid, leaving his real wife about to become a mother, to shift for himself. Detective J. A. Mitchell left St. Paul to bring Scott back and face one or more of the charges to which police say he is liable. Entertains At Luncheon At Sandwich Shop Mr. J. R.

Carey W. R. Morris L. R. Hill Pictured above are the delegates who will represent the Twin Cities at the annual convention of the Improved, Benevolent, Protective Order of St. Peter Claver Summer School A Big Success The auditorium of St. Peter Claver Church was comfortably filled Wednesday night at the closing exercises of the summer school. The handwork of the children was on display, and showed that those who had taught them had indeed wrought well. The artificial flowers were especially deserving of praise. First prize for button hole making was won by Leona Brimhoist, second by Arline Williams. The exercises of the children were preceded by encouraging talks by Father Theobald, Dr. William McNell of Howard University, Washington, and Dr. Allen Wesley of Chicago. A varied program, consisting of songs, musical numbers, drills, child dances and demonstrations in table setting and bed making was rendered, which proved to be highly entertaining and instructive. Very amusing was the turkey and duck song by a number of the little ones. Miss Gretchen Cotton acted as mistress of ceremonies. also to be hoped that all mothers will join in the effort to give these children an enjoyable outing. Those persons who will donate their cars, please call Garfield 6667. Thank you. New York, N. Y.--Alexander King has been promoted to be superintendent of Station U, East 106th St. Mr. King has been in the postal service over thirty years. Elks of the World, which is to be held in Richmond this month. W. R. Morris and T. B. Carey are the delegates from Ames Lodge No. 106, PUBLISHER OF BULLETIN-APPEAL SELLS INTEREST Owen Howell, publisher of the Bulletin-Apeal, has disposed of his newspaper interest to Maurice Mineau and James W. Bolden. Mr. Howell will devote his entire attention to his private business—the Uptown Sanitary Shop and other activities. The new owners have been connected with Mr. Howell for some time, as editor and business manager, respectively. There will be no change in the personnel of the paper other than that of the publisher. Mr. Mineau will continue as editor and Mr. Bolden as business manager. John Q. Adams, Jr., in addition to being printing manager, will take over the job printing department. Mr. Howell became interested in the newspaper business through a desire to help a young race man, the late Walter Chestnut, achieve an ambition to become a journalist, for which he had a natural bent and talent. He became the publisher of the Northwestern Bulletin, which was established September, 1921, as a monthly and later as a weekly. Mr. Chestnut passed away after a brief illness in the spring of 1923. Since that time the paper has had a varied career. January 1, 1924, Mr. Howell acquired the Appeal, which was founded in 1985, from the estate of the late John Q. Adams, who had been its editor and publisher for thirty-six years up to the time of his death, resulting from being struck by an automobile, and merged the two papers into one enterprise under the name of the Bulletin-Appeal. After the death of Mr. Adams, his only son, John Q., Jr., who had been brought up in the newspaper business by his father, and who is a practical all around printer as well as one of the beat "make-up" men in the country, continued the publication of the Appeal until the merger was effected. As publisher of the Bulletin-Appal Mr. Howell set a high standard. His policy has been for race constructiveness. His efforts at all times for the elevation and uplifting of the Colored people have been paramount to everything else in the conduct of a newspaper. Under his guidance the Bulletin-Appal has attained a reputation as a home paper on account of its wholesome character. Mr. Howell has not profited through his connection with the newspaper business. Indeed, it has cost him several thousand dollars, but for this he has no regret. He felt that the people of Minneapolis, and L. R. Hill is the delegate from Gopher Lodge No. 105, St. Paul. Sherwood Bill Is Passed by Minn. A.L.Convention The Sherwood bill passed in the state convention after an able presentation by Comrade Bundlie. It is to be presented at the National American Legion Convention at Omaha in September. The Sherwood bill was presented by the Leslie Lawrence Post of the American Legion of St. Paul. It provides for two amendments to the National Legion Constitution, whereby a National Board of Appeals will be established, and whereby a group of service men wishing to establish a legion post may advance their claim for a charter to the extremes of the National Board of Appeals and the National Legion Convention in case they are refused a charter by local Legion authorities. These amendments are directly to favor the Negro service men of the section of the country where Legion officials are known to refuse to grant charters to service men because of race prejudice. Editor Leading Daily Grants News Request New York, Aug. 14.—A letter written by Mrs. H. E. Hart, Secretary of the Northern California Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, to the Managing Editor of the Oakland Tribune, a large white daily, telling him his colored readers were interested in the proceedings of the N. A. A. C. P. annual conference in Denver and asking him to publish news of the conference, brought a prompt response. In reply, the Managing Editor of the Oakland Tribune wrote to Mrs. De Hart: "Thank you for your letter of June 22. I instructed our News Editor to use every line of news on the convention that we received in this office." Mrs. De Hart has forwarded clippings from the Oakland Tribune to the National Office of the N. A. A. C. P., showing that the Editor followed instructions. the Twin Cities should have a newspaper, and to make that possible he contributed liberally and unfinchingly. Some day, perhaps, after he has joined the "client majority," the race will appreciate his benefaction. He has done much for race advancement. Triangle Club Holds Fourth Annual Picnic The Triangle Club, Twin City Postal Employees, held their fourth annual picnic Sunday, August 9, at Crooked Lake, Anoka, Minn. The affair was the most successful of any yet given. There were over 100 automobiles, and a bus load of 30 from Minneapolis. Boating, fishing, horseshoe pitching and baseball were indulged in. In the ball game between Minneapolis and St. Paul employees, Minneapolis won by 19 to 7. According to custom, ice cream was served to the guests after the game. The committee, consisting of David Francis, chairman, James Wilson, Tela Burt, Ernest Charleston, H. Mondell, Ira Allen and J. F. Stevens, president, deserves great credit for their unitiring efforts in perfecting the program that was so successfully carried out. Mrs.OpheliaLawrence Dies Very Suddenly Mrs. Ophalia Lawrence, mother of Mrs. Jose Sherwood, 971 St. Anthony Ave., died Sunday, August 9. The funeral was held Wednesday afternoon from Zion Presbyterian Church. The death of Mrs. Lawrence was unexpected, as she had been in apparent good health at the departure of Mr. and Mrs. Sherwood that evening for Thief River Falls, where they went to attend the Legion convention. A telegram recalled them immediately. Interesting Program Held at Attucks Home An interesting program was carried out last Sunday at Crispus Attucks Home by the committee in charge. The meeting was opened with prayer by Mr. G. W. Wills, after which Mr. Geo. Shannon, chairman of the board of directors, made a talk introducing the principal speaker, Mr. C. Whit Pfeiffer, executive secretary of the Community Chest. In Mr. Pfeiffer's address he outlined all of the workings of the Community Chest as applied to the community. Mr. E. A. Hatton, president of the Crispus Attucks Home Association, read the annual report of all the activities and finances of the Home for the past year. A contribution called for by Mr. Shannon was responded to liberally. Especial mention should be made of the splendid condition of the home, as to cleanliness, etc., credit for which is due to the matron, Mrs. Carter, and her husband. COLLECTOR APPOINTS COLORED STENOGRAPHER Boston, Mass., Aug. 15.—On recommendation of William C. Matthews, Malcolm E. Nichols today appointed Miss Irma Pack a stenographer in the Department of Internal Revenue. Miss Pack's appointment was sanctioned by Senator William M. Butler.

All of these appointees have and the endorsement of Senator William M. Butler. Shop Every Week in the Bulletin- Appeal The Dependable Medium PRICE: FIVE CENTS COLLEGE HEADS PASS MOTION OF INDIGNATION New York, Aug. 14.—The Chinese Students' Club of Colorado College, Colorado Springs, has sent to James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, a statement placing the blame for recent disorders in China upon British police, and asserting that unarmed Chinese students were massacred. The statement quotes from evidence showing that most of the Chinese were shot in the back, that no British police were wounded, that at least 70 Chinese were killed and 300 wounded and that the massacre occurred during a parade conducted by the students in protest against the arrest of fellow students by the British police for making speeches and distributing handbills. The statement includes a motion unanimously passed by the faculty of Tsing Hua College, Peking, including British and American professors, which is as follows: "Recently in Shanghai a number of Chinese students were shot and killed or wounded by the British police. We wish to voice our extreme indignation at this occurrence. For those who died and for the wounded, we feel the deepest sorrow and we join in expressing our profound sympathy to the people throughout the nation who protest against these atrocities." Moreover, in Peking 118 foreign women united in issuing a manifesto, the names including Mrs. Henry Houghton, wife of the President of Peking Union Medical College; Mrs. W. J. Calhoun, wife of the former American Minister to Peking, and other well known women. The Chinese students also ask for the abolition of extra-territorial rights by foreign powers, alleging that racial prejudice in the European courts of justice maintained on Chinese soil results in grave discrimination and injustice to the Chinese. Errors Result In Uptown's Defeat By Afton Grove Afton Grove of the Golden Valley League defeated the Uptown Sanitarys at St. Paul Park Sunday in a ragged game of ball, score 18-8. The Sanitarys counted five singles, five doubles, one triple, a total of eleven hits, including four stolen bases, enough to win any ball game. Errors lost the game, Joe Davis and Luck were the batteries for the Sanitarys; Piccadell and Smith for Afton Grove. The Sanitarys are still in the running for the championship of the Golden Valley League. The last game between Lake Elmo and the Sanitarys will be played Sunday at St. Paul Park, and with a win from Elmo, and if Afton defeats South St. Paul, which team is now leading the league, the Sanitarys will be tied for second place. There are two more games to be played before the close of the season, one at South St. Paul and the last one at Afton. By winning the last three games the Sanitarys' chances are good for a win. Bus leaves Rice Park at 1 o'clock. READING CIRCLES FOR TEACHERS IN 27 STATES Washington, Aug. 15.—Of interest to our 36,000 colored school teachers is the information that teachers' reading circles are conducted or sponsored by State departments of education in twenty-seven states, and that pupils' reading circles are conducted in eighteen states. Home Education Circular No. 7, on "Teachers' and Pupils' Reading Circles," issued by the U. S. Department of Interior, Bureau of Education, lists the states promoting such courses and describes the conditions under which they are offered. FAIREST FLOWERS OF MANY STATES 1 "BEAUTIES ALL" 1.

CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP the last issue of the Bulletin-Appeal a change been effected. Mr. Howell has disposed of his own owners in taking the torch from the hands of mere conscious of the responsibility it imposes. To carry out the policy that has given the Bulletin active reputation for the best to be found in politicalism. This is an urgent need for the continuance of the this community. It has a mission to fulfill the task against repression and oppression; against the urge to an unreasonable prejudice of narrow-minded believe the race needs a voice—a strong voice for constitutional rights. Opportunity will not open of its own accord if it are enjoyed today by the race are due in action at the efforts of the race newspaper. A little while ago there were but a few hundred Colored Twin Cities. At that time the only occupants with the railroads, hotels and barber shops, race-loving pioneers, in an effort to overhaul make it easier for those who would come to realize the necessity of a newspaper as a channel of their pockets established the force to draw the Bulletin-Appeal. The first paper was written Appeal. Through the intrepidity of the Works dauntless editor—the late Frederick D. H. Began to fall and results were obtained. The took up the cudgel when his predecessor stood editorial chair forty years ago and valiantly acted on the fight for the race up to the day of the Western Appeal to the Bulletin-Appeal in combat continues against the same enemy as in demon of race prejudice. Today there are seized people in the State of Minnesota whose richardy without a race paper to protect them. Race paper increases in proportion to the increase in assuming the ownership of the Bulletin-Appeal to its many friends to know that one of the present editor—was a life-long and intiring Dick D. Parker and John Q. Adams. He was sent to the paper while a resident of another city, both editors. It can be said that he has always in the welfare of the people of this section more than any other man, is better able to force of his departed friends and do justice to the mood and the things for which they stood. Since the last issue of the Bulletin-Appeal a change of ownership has been effected. Mr. Howell has disposed of his interest in the paper to his former employees, Messrs. Mineau and Bolden. The new owners in taking the torch from the hands of the late publisher are conscious of the responsibility it imposes. They will continue to carry out the policy that has given the Bulletin-Appeal its distinctive reputation for the best to be found in progressive race journalism. There is an urgent need for the continuance of the Bulletin-Appeal in this community. It has a mission to fulfill in carrying on the fight against repression and oppression; against wrongs and injustice due to an unreasonable prejudice of narrow-minded white people. We believe the race needs a voice—a strong voice—to fight its battles for constitutional rights. The door of opportunity will not open of its own accord. The rights that are enjoyed today by the race are due in a very large measure to the efforts of the race newspaper. A little more than forty years ago there were but a few hundred Colored people residing in the Twin Cities. At that time the only occupations open to them were with the railroads, hotels and barber shops. A few public-spirited, race-loving pioneers, in an effort to overcome conditions and make it easier for those who would come after their demise, realized the necessity of a newspaper as a champion, and out of the depths of their pockets established the fore-runner of what is now the Bulletin-Apeal. The first paper was known as the Western Appeal. Through the intrepidity of the Western Appeal and its dauntless editor—the late Frederick D. Parker—the barriers began to fall and results were obtained. The late John Q. Adams took up the cudgel when his predecessor stepped down from the editorial chair forty years ago and valiantly and relentlessly carried on the fight for the race up to the day of his untimely death. From the Western Appeal to the Bulletin-Appeal is a far cry, but the combat continues against the same enemy as in the beginning—the demon of race prejudice. Today there are several thousand Colored people in the State of Minnesota whose rights would be in jeopardy without a race paper to protect them. The necessity of a race paper increases in proportion to the increase in population. In assuming the ownership of the Bulletin-Appeal it may be of interest to its many friends to know that one of the proprietors—the present editor—was a life-long and intimate friend of Frederick D. Parker and John Q. Adams. He was a contributing editor to the paper while a resident of another city under the regime of both editors. It can be said that he has always evinced an interest in the welfare of the people of this section and, perhaps, more than any other man, is better able to follow in the footsteps of his departed friends and do justice to the memory of their manhood and the things for which they stood.

By amuned with her soul and her hands produced whi Edmonia Lewis was born in New York in 1845. Her mother was an Oneida Indian and her father an American Negro. She received her education in private schools and a Catholic Academy for girls. At the latter institution she was taught the primary principles of art. When a young girl she visited Boston, and there saw a statue of Benjamin Franklin. It inspired a desire in her young soul to "make a stone man." William Lloyd Garrison, the great abolitionist, was attracted to the girl, whose ambition was to become an artist, and introduced her to a sculptor. The latter encouraged her and gave her a few suggestions, but altogether she received but scant instruction in her art. By intuitive desire she communed with her soul and her hands produced what was there envisioned. In 1865 she had progressed so far in her work as to produce a bust of Col. Robert Gould Shaw, which was exhibited at Boston, where it attracted wide comment. In this same year she went to Rome to perfect her studies, and two years later took up her permanent residence at Florence, where she established a studio. She perfected herself in both the French and Italian languages, and became imbued with all the beauties of Latin romance. Among some of her noted works are: "The Freed Woman," "The Death of Cleopatra," "Asleep," "The Marriage of Hiawatha," and "Madonna With the Infant Christ." Among her busts in terra-cotta are those of John Brown, Charles Sumner, Abraham Lincoln, and the poet, Longfellow. Most of her works are in Europe. At the Chicago World's Fair, 1893, Miss Lewis was a prominent exhibitor and her work won the admiration and favorable comment of connoisseurs of art. She was an occasional visitor to this country prior to the World's Fair. She invariably visited Chicago on these trips as the guest of the late Mrs. John Jones, pioneer settler and great race benefactor. She died a few years ago at her home at Florence. Miss Lewis never married, but lived in her beautiful villa with the MEMPHIS, TENN. — Glorious girls and winsome women of our race from nearly every state in the Union are vicing with each other for the honor of being Beauty Queen.

Gleanings From Our Exchanges SIGNS OF PROGRESS There are many developments taking place under the very eyes of Harlemites which tell a tale of the progress of the race far more eloquent than words. The Odd Fellows of New York State are building a magnificent apartment house that will bring in a handsome net income. The Prince Hall Masons are contemplating doing the same thing, which will also include an auditorium on their property. The Hotel Bellmen have purchased and are fitting up for very early occupancy a beautiful home on St. Nicholas Avenue. Their home has been paid for in cash and a large cash balance remains in the bank as the proceeds of the sale of their downtown home. St. Mark's church, Rev. John W. Robinson, pastor, is building its magnificent temple on the pay-as-you-go plan. When the practical, picturesque edifice on the Park Side is completed it will be practically free of debt due to the sale of the Fifty-third Street church and its other parcels. The same thing is practically true of Mt. Olivet, Rev. W. P. Hayes, pastor, which has purchased the Lenox Avenue Temple. Methods have been devised whereby Mother Zion A. M. E. church, Rev. J. W. Brown, pastor, and Salem M. E. church, Rev. P. A. Cullen, pastor, are funding their obligations without serious danger of untoward consequences. The Association of Trade and Commerce is preparing a systematic drive to be launched in the early fall for the purpose of securing a larger and closer commercial co-operation among the colored business men of Harlem. Two stable colored insurance companies are planning to invade the New York and New Jersey fields. Thirty thousand dollars has already been raised by colored citizens toward the Englowment of the Gnat Presbyterian Medical Center. These and a score of other good, big things are maturing in Harlem which are signs of a promising permanent future for the race in the metropolis.—The New York News. and the fairest flowers of our race women are in the thick of the contest with votes pouring in by the thousands from friends and relatives.

This is the real fundamental and cornerstone of true religion. Close beside it is this other fundamental, that Christ is the Son of God, His supreme revelation—"He that hath seen me hath seen the Father," and "The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself; but the Father that dwelle in me, He doeth the works." Who ever believes these fundamentals concerning the God and Savior of mankind need not be disturbed in his religious faith, whatever controversy arises over less important matters. . . . There is no other way of living that will bring men to God . . . or heaven. . . . Thousands of people who firmly believe in the old theologies are perishing today because they have not these greater fundamentals in their hearts and lives. Let them all believe this great gospel and live.

In their best moments they have said with Paul, "I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me." And now because they share His spirit, they expect to share His victory over death, and to inherit a glorious immortality. SIOUX FALLS NEWS Mrs. H.

Calling for great hearts, brave and true; Men who will defend God's altar, Who in the conflict will not falter. Men of St. James, God is calling you. The women of St. James have issued a challenge to the men. We challenge you to exhibit a spirit of loyalty, devotion and sacrifice equal to ours. We challenge you to demonstrate a quality of mind, training and ability in producing a program such as we shall render on Woman's Day, August 30. You have long branded and proclaimed us to be the weaker sex. Now prove your superiority! Dare you accept the challenge? The above defl, hurled by the women of St. James, has been met by the men, who not only accept the challenge, but are loud in their boasts that they will make the sisters look like thirty cents when the smoke of battle has cleared away. That the men are uneasy is evidenced by the fact that a "council of war" was held by the men Monday night that lasted until the "wee small hours" of Tuesday morning. In the meantime the sisters are planning their first skirmish in the form of a silver tea at the home of Mrs. Melker, 455 St. Anthony Ave. The rally fund is increasing. Do your bit to help pay for doors and windows. Won't it be a "grand and glorious" feeling to open the doors of the new church and say with pride, "I helped build the New St. James?" How many will be able to say that? Don't fail to see Mutt and Jeff and Maggie and Jiggs, Williams and Walker on August 20. The dinner given by the H. L. P. Jones Club was a success socially and financially. Visitors are given a cordial welcome. We invite you to our services.

Student Conference at Blue Ridge, N. C., made a deeper or more favorable impression than that of Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, President of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs and of Daytona-Cookman Institute. Addressing hundreds of white students from southern colleges, Mrs. Bethune made a powerful plea for better understanding and fair dealing between the races, declaring that the people of her race are asking no special favors, but only the rights and opportunities to which every American citizen is entitled—the right of life, liberty, protection, education; the right to develop and achieve. "In asking for these rights," said Mrs. Bethune, "the Negro is not trying to be white. He only wants a fair chance in the race of life, that he may be his own best." The address was received with prolonged applause; many of the students crowded forward to express their appreciation of the address and all spoke of it in the highest terms. ANNOUNCEMENT James A.

Office Phone Cedar 8948 Home, Dale 2824 Holds Court Can't Saye Life Against Man's Will Murphysboro.—Can a court save a man's life, against his will, by ordering a surgical operation? State's Attorney John H. Searing decided that such action does not lie within the jurisdiction of the court, in an opinion in a case placed before him. Dr. O. House of De Soto recently came to Murphysboro to obtain, if possible, an order for the amputation of a patient's arm. The patient, Charlie Counze, was wounded in the arm on a hunting expedition and the wound became infected. Doctor House, who had charge of the case, judged that amputation was the only sure means of checking the poison and saving the patient's life. Young Counze refused to undergo an operation, and the doctor came to see the state's attorney for advice. Closed Cars Washed and Polished.....$2.00 Open Cars Washed and Polished.....$1.50 In the meantime the patient moved to Missouri, where he is under the care of his mother, and no further reports of his condition have been received.
