COLORED SHRINERS WIN INJUNCTION CASE IN FLORIDA
White Shriners Refused Right to Colored Lodges From Wearing Insignia.
ATT. PERKINS LAUDED AFTER WINNING CASE
White Press Heralds Entrance of Suit but fails to Mention the Decision Granted.
Jacksonville, Fla., June 23.—What has sent a thrill of triumph through the hearts of Attorney D. W. Perkins, legal adviser for the masonic fraternity of the jurisdiction of the Most Worshipful Union Grand Lodge of the state of Florida, and the twenty or more thousand who pay allegiance to that jurisdiction handed down in the Circuit Court in the city of Tampa on the 5th of this month, where in the temple of the Mystic Shriners, white, had sued out a writ of injunction, restraining all colored men in Florida from using the name, insignia, paraphernalia, words, costumes, etc. of the Ancient Arabic Mystic Shriners. Arguments were made before Judge Robles of Tampa, who holds the reputation of being one of the fairest judges that ever sat in any court in this state. The case was fought hard, and every assault made by the opposition was smashed by Attorney Perkins, and Judge Robles gave his decision, denying the injunction.
This is the first time white shriners have attempted to interfere with colored shriners in this state, and their failure may not be the last of it. Attorney Perkins is being lionized over his great victory. The white press quickly published the entrance of this case, but so far, not one of them has had a word to say about the denial of the court to grant the injunction.
Race Prejudice at Annapolis Scored
Cruel Pranks Performed Against Jewish Naval Student Defended in Senate.
(Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., June 23.—Race prejudice in Annapolis has been dealt a terrific blow in the Senate. It was aimed in defense of the Jews, but as stated by Senator Sutherland, "Every man should stand on an equality before the law." Demands were made in the senate for the punishment of members of the Annapolis naval academy graduating class who are alleged to have perpetrated cruel pranks upon Leonard Kaplan, a Jewish member of the class.
Senator Sutherland (West Virginia) Repulican, from whose state Kaplan was appointed, called the senate's attention to the incident. He told how the graduating class issued a year book, in which a page was devoted to each member of the class. A mock biography of Kaplan appeared in the last page of the book, which was unnumbered and perforated, so that it could be torn out and eliminated from the record, and his name was left out of the class roll.
"In my opinion," said Senator Sutherland, "we should not allow such an offense to pass unnoticed and uncorrected, nor should those guilty be allowed to go unpunished. If such incidents are permitted to pass unnoticed then it is better that our navy should be scrapped, because they show how far we have departed from the tenets and principles which have made our country great and powerful.
"Regardless of nationality, regardless of race, in this country every man should stand on an equality before the law."

Kellogg, Preus Win Primary Election
Ramsey and Hennepin County Incumbents Seeking Re-elections Lead Field.
League To Ho
Branches Plan Seing
The outstanding developments of Monday's state primary election, according to tabulations available at time of going to press give Frank B. Kellogg for United States senator, 146,841 votes against Ernest Lundeen's his nearest competitor, 84,244. Gov. J. A. O. Preus for governor 163,550 and Franklin F. Ellsworth, 93,184. Anna D. Olesen's nomination as the Democratic candidate for United States senate is conceded 1714 precincts giving her 18,212 votes; Thomas J. Meighen 14,019, and Homer Morris 6,686.
The total Democratic vote in the state should run about 55,000 while approximately 450,000 Republican votes have been cast in the state computed on the basis of the Kellogg-Lundeen-Titus returns.
Wagener Roads Opponent
Every Ramsey county official who sought re-election will be a candidate at the general election by votes in some instances overwhelming such as the great majority John Wagener piled up when he received more than 10,000 lead over his nearest competitor. J. J. Fitzgerald, register of deeds, also received a large majority. Coroner C. A. Ingerson had an easy lead over D. C. Jones. Henry Gallick, court commissioner, was a two-to-one victor over his nearest opponent, J. W. Ryan. All the present county commissioners were winners for re-election.
Incumbents Win Race.
All the present county officers of Hennepin county were re-nominated, with close fights for second place. Judge H. D. Dickinson heads the poll for district judges, with Judge Baldwin second and Judge W. E. Hale, third. Sheriff Earl Brown, Gilbert Seashore, coroner, and court commissioner W. E. Bates were easily nominated by a large margin.

Motorman Killed By Angry Mob of Men in Richmond
Richmond, Va., June 23.—A motorman of the Virginia Railway & Power Co. was stabbed to death late Sunday by a crowd of colored men. When threatened by the men the motorman jumped from his car and sought refuge in a passing automobile. The men, however, pursued the machine, overtook it, and stabbed the white man to death. Four arrests had been made by the police, who expressed a fear that trouble might develop from the killing.
Garvey Fails To Arrive in St. Paul
Garvey Fails To Arrive in St. Paul
Hundreds Dissapointed When Famed "Negro Moses" Fails to Arrive as Scheduled.
Honorable Marcus Garvey, provisional-president of Africa, president-general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association in whose interest he is now making a cross country speaking tour, and president of numerous other enterprises, pulled a "boner" when he failed to make his appearance at St. James A. M. E. church last Friday evening where it had been advertised for nearly six weeks in advance that the famed Negro leader would speak.
No word had been received from Garvey or from N. U. I. A. headquarters in New York up until yesterday morning stating why he did not come here, according to officials of the local division.
Field Representative Speaks
In Garvey's place, Madam Henrietta Davis international organizer of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, spoke to the full house that had clamored to hear Garvey. According to instruction, Madam Davis understood that she was to join the Garvey party here. Garvey failing to arrive, she spoke both Friday and Saturday at the church. She spoke principally of the work the Garvey movement has undertaken to do.
Demand Refund.
The first night Garvey was due to speak, hundreds of Twin City people went to the church to hear the prominent orator but when it was announced that Garvey had failed to arrive, many demanded their admission fee to be refunded. This the local branch willingly did. The following night, Madam Davis spoke to a poor house in spite of the number of people who came to the church curious to know whether Garvey had come or not.
No Word Received.
Although the local branch of the U. N. I. A. had received instructions from the Parent body in New York for Garvey to speak in St. Paul June 16 and 17, no word has been received witm a day or so from the parent body.
It is generally conceded that Garvey's failure to come here or to send word that he was not coming will greatly hamper the activities of the local branch.
Jersians to Name Negro State Ballot
Trenton, N. J., June 23. Charging that administration leaders are "spineless" in their efforts to suppress the Ku Klux Klan, New Jersey Republicans were planning Thursday to call a "mass convention" to place Negro candidates in the Republican primaries for United States senator and governor. The convention, it is said, will be under the auspices of the Crispus Attucks Protective League.
Senator Reed, After Failing to Stand by Bill, is Trying to Win Re-election.
NEGRO DEMOCRATS BIND TOGETHER TO HELP DYER
Reed has Failed in His Promise to Colored Voters and They Refuse to Support Him.
(Associated Negro Press)
St. Louis, Mo., June 23.—U. S.
Senator James Reed is fighting with his back against the wall, hoping to defeat Breckenridge Long for the U. S. Senatorial nomination in this state.
The primary is in August and Reed will have to close his fight without any material aid from the Negro Democrats of the state, of whom there are a large number in Kansas City and this city, and it is solely because of his failure to stand for the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill.
Not long ago a committee of prominent citizens met the Senator by appointment at the Jefferson Hotel and discussed this matter with him. The bill was referred to his committee. He frankly told this committee that he feared the bill was unconstitutional—a statement which most Negroes regard as a polite political way of lying or dodging out of the thing—but he was in favor of a state law to this effect. Leading Negro Democrats of this city give it as their opinion it would be folly for Reed or any one else opposed to the Dyer Bill to expect Negro support. These same men do not try to conceal the fact they are going to the polls and do all they can for Dyer, regardless of who is against him, simply because he stood pat and is following it up. Some of these men have fought Dyer as bitterly as men could, because they had not seen any act of his which they considered a test of what he would do; they did not care to analyze motives. Reed has failed his colored constituents, and they will not support him.
The senatorial contest among the Republicans is a mad scramble. Some of these aspirants will have some explaining to do to the colored voters, because they have failed in the past. Failed in doing their sworn duty to the state.
MISSIONARY WORKERS
HOLD INTERESTING MEET
The regular monthly meeting of the Twin City Missionary Alliance held Tuesday afternoon at Wayman Mission was from every angle an interesting and successful meeting, according to Mrs. Florence Duckett, president of the organization. Topics of interest along the line of the organization's work were discussed. An exceptionally heavy collection was given. Close to fifty members of the Alliance were present.
UPTOWNS TO PLAY
PRESCOTT NINE JULY 4
The big ball game of the season will be played July 4 at Prescott, Wis when the Uptown local boys meet the strong Prescott nine for the first of a series of games to be played between the two teams. The local boys are in excellent shape and are confident of taking the Precott nine into camp.
The Twin City Bus Co. will convey the team and all the followers who wish to make the trip, reservations can be made either at the Northwestern Bulletin office, or at the Uptown Sanitary Shop at 339 Wabasha St. The Bus will leave from Fourth and Wabasha St. early the morning of the Fourth so that picnicking, bathing, and fishing can be enjoyed before the game. The St. Croix river has offered up some of the best catches of fish seen in these parts, so here's a chance to try your luck.
Leads Campaign In Building Sanitarium
PETER H.
Community Praises Lodge Head
For Leading Campaign That
Erects $150,000 Sanitarium.
Hot Springs, Ark., June 23.—This community is singing the praises of John L. Webb, Supreme Head of the Woodmen of the Union, which organization has just completed a $150,000 sanitarium, which is not only a credit to the community and organization, but to the entire race throughout the country.
Mr. Webb is another one of those "self-made men." He is a product of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, and a native of that state. Mr. Webb is an executive of rare ability and unassuming but determined in his manner. He is a member of the Baptist Church and takes an interest in all matters of racial up-lift. He takes especial interest in boys and their welfare, and had done much through his organization to help them.
The Woodmen of the Union is regarded as one of the most substantial fraternal organizations in the country. It is strongest in the states of the middle south west, but is steadily branching out. During a recent visit to Chicago, Mr. Webb seriously considered arrangements for eventually building an office structure In the windy city.
Judge Terrel Gets Same Seaton Bench
Negro Jurist Gets Re-appointment to Office he has Held Since Roosevelt's Term.
Washington, D. C., June 23.—Robert H. Terrell was reappointed Judge of the Municipal Court for a term of six years by President Harding, Tuesday. Judge Terrell has served on the bench continuously since his first appointment during the administration of President Roosevelt. Since then, he has been appointed once by President Taft, twice by President Wilson, and now comes the news of his re-appointment by President Harding.
Baryard Graduate
A graduate from Harvard University in 1884, Judge Terrell was one of the commencement speakers, and won notoriety through his forceful, clear, logical way of expressing himself. Following his graduation he taught for a number of years in Washington, D. C.
Personally, Judge Terrell is one of the most popular men on the bench, in addition to being unusually sane in his decisions. One of his most notable decisions on the Rent Act, which was upheld by the Supreme Court, created quite a deal of comment throughout the country. It is also worthy of note that Judge Terrell has had fewer reversals than any other Municipal Court Judge on the bench.

CROWD OF 500 SEE COP GET WORST OF STRUGGLE FOR GUN
Negro Refuses to be Bullied By White Policeman; Takes Cop's Gun in Fight Then Escapes.
ENCOUNTER MARKED 3RD CLASH WITHIN 24 HOURS
Mill City Police Take Steps To End Simmering Race Troubles in 6 Ave. N District.
Refusing to be bullied, a Negro last Tuesday night in a struggle at Sixth and Aldrich Aves. N. Minneapolis, with patrolman George H. Mc Namee of the North Side station, wrested the policeman's revolver after the officer had fired four shots at him, backed slowly away and escaped. Nearly 500 persons witnessed the clash.
Upon investigation, it appears that the man who escaped, had sitting on a railing at Sixth and Aldrich Ave. N. with a friend when Patrolman McNamee came up and ordered the men to move on in a rough tone of voice. When the men refused to jump at the officer's command, he proceeded to hustle up matters by using his club. Words followed. McNamee struck one of the men, according to a witness, then a struggle ensued.
Takes Cop's Revolver
In the struggle that followed, the man who had been struck, threw the policeman onto the ground. Mc Namee reached for his revolver and fired four shots but he failed to hit the fellow who grabbed for his wrist and succeeded in turning the gun from his body. Finally, the man twisted the gun from the policeman's hand, and wrenching himself free, backed into the street covering the patrolman with his own revolver.
Me Namee then got up and when he turned to go up Sixth avenue for assistance, the man who had beaten him fled, running up Aldrich avenue toward Fifth avenue. A gun squad searched the district a few minutes later but did not find him. He had not been found up until early today. During the clash a crowd of nearly 500 gathered on the other three corners and witnessed the affair.
Fear Race Trouble.
The incident marked the third clash between Negroes and police in the Sixth avenue district within 24 hours. Early Tuesday morning, two policemen had trouble when they attempted to break up a crowd of Negroes at Lyndale Place and Sixth avenue. Four men were arrested charged with disorderly conduct. Several others were badly beaten. Police were called to break up another crowd that formed an hour later. Although no more serious troubles have occurred since Tuesday night, police have ordered all Negro clubs closed and taken steps to prevent further trouble.
A committee of citizens has been formed to investigate conditions and ascertain the complaint that Negroes have been speaking to white girls and otherwise conducting themselves in a disorderly manner in that district.
Police Raid Drug Den; Nine Held Under Charges
Four white women, four colored men and one colored woman were arrested Tuesday night by Federal narcotic agents and Minneapolis city detectives in a raid on an opium den at 1107 Second street south, Minneapolis, and locked up in jail.
When agents entered the place they found a number of persons smoking opium and several were so overcome they had to be carried to the patrol wagon, John P. Wall, acting supervising narcotic agent, explained. Cocaine and morphine also were found. The prisoners will be charged with violation of the narcotic law and the Harrison act.

THE MILLENIUM SEEKERS
By Wm. Pickens, A. N. P.
The earth is God-knows-how-many million years old, even the human race is perhaps a million years old, and yet some people are looking for the millennial age of perfection in their little life-time of fifty years or so. They join a little organization and pay one dollar and then wake up the next morning to find out that the whole world has not been revolutionized by that dollar,—and are ready to throw up their hands in despair. We hear people complain that some organized effort in which they have been enrolled for four or five years, and to which they have paid two or three dollars, has not accomplished such-and-such a purpose or aim "yet." But, how much more murder there would have been, had good men not been fighting it through all the thousand generations!
The earth is God-knows-how-many millions, even the human race is perhaps a million, and yet some people are looking for them a age of perfection in their little life-time years or so.

We hear complain that some organized effort in our have been enrolled for four or five years, which they have paid two or three dollars accomplished such-and-such a purpose of." But, how much more murder there is been, had good men not been fighted through all the thousand generations! This world is about as far as ever from "punishment" for the perfect is itself a progressive in you solve one problem, you meet or other. It is the matter of a continuing so continuing problem. Some minds are, that they reason thus: We will org get this thing done and then rid of it. The need of adjustments among humans not be done until life itself is done. It must be build a house, he might look for the definite END of that,—but he will be created for himself, or for others, theicate problems of maintaining, repairing,inuing the house, and the bothers of living so you hear them say, "An anti-lynching it break up lynching?" Of course not. The simple-minded people ever thought it was an anti-lynching law will be a mighty soon to use against lynching and will REPEAT beyond a shadow of doubt. And it is not a table that in time and with the co-operative agencies (like education,) it will cause lynch to disappear. Lynching is even more a than murder by individuals, and thereby civilized communities where lynching is thought of. So you hear them say of an organization, "What has it done?" Simply because it has the perfection in its way? What good have such done in two thousand years, and most people are still "going to hell,"—according to the preachments of the church people, church saves one out of a hundred (according to present doctrines), it will be going some the millennium-seekers are really the most children among us. They are too opting have too much faith in faith and too much in work and growth. They will die is stated. But those who do not expect to see perfection, but are determined to make and a bit better than it was on the last of the maker T. Washington, may die justified.
This world is about as far as ever from "perfection," for the perfect is itself a progressive idea when you solve one problem, you meet or create another. It is the matter of a continuing solution of a continuing problem. Some minds are so naive, that they reason thus: We will organize and get this thing done and then be rid of it and rest. The need of adjustments among human lives will not be done until life itself is done. If one organizes to build a house, he might look forward to the definite END of that,—but he will then have created for himself, or for others, the more intricate problems of maintaining, repairing and continuing the house, and the bothers of living in it.
Do you hear them say, "An anti-lynching law won't break up lynching?" Of course not. Only the simple-minded people ever thought it would. But an anti-lynching law will be a mighty good weapon to use against lynching and will REDUCE it beyond a shadow of doubt. And it is not inconceivable that in time and with the co-operation of other agencies (like education,) it will cause lynching to disappear. Lynching is even more abnormal than murder by individuals, and there are many civilized communities where lynching is not now thought of.
Do you hear them say of an organization, "What good has it done?" Simply because it has not made perfection in its way? What good has the church done in two thousand years, and more? For most people are still "going to hell."—according to the preachments of the church people. If the church saves one out of a hundred (according to its present doctrines), it will be going some.
The millenium-seekers are really the most credulous children among us. They are too optimistic. They have too much faith in faith and too little faith in work and growth. They will die disappointed. But those who do not expect to see millennial perfection, but are determined to make their world a bit better than it was on the last day of Booker T. Washington, may die justified.
THE NEGRO NEWSPAPER

Have you noticed the new effectiveness of the Negro newspaper? Fifteen years ago, nobody, not even the Negroes, cared a snap what the Negro newspaper "said about it." But during the great war, the enemy of the Negro began to get worried about the Colored men's papers, and now they are more than ever anxious about the virtues of the Negro editor.
It was the Negro newspaper, more than any other single power perhaps, that created a nationwide demand for the passage of an anti-lynching law rather than a mockery in the shape of an anti-lynching or lynching "resolution" or "Commission." The Negro Press was the indispensable ally of the N. A. A. C. P. in getting this bill thru the lower house of congress.
What is the secret of this power? Simply this: that these papers, a great number of them at least, have learned to pull together. It used to be that when a Negro paper said we wanted a thing, somebody could pay or induce another one to say "we don't want it," and it ended there. Now they can say the same thing at the same time, and say it well, thanks mostly to the Associated Negro Press of Chicago, and its editors.—W. P.

NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN
WILLS-GIBBS WEDDING
Considered one of the Most Beautiful of Present Season.
RAISE THE STANDARD OF THE MINISTRY
A minister sent out a questionnaire to a number of laymen, asking "What can the church do to attract the laity?" Among the many reasons assigned in the answers sent was the following: "Lift up the ministry."
One of the most fashionable weddings of the season took place on last Saturday evening, June 17 at Pilgrim Baptist church when Miss Grace Willis, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George W. Wills, 1004 Iglehart avenue, became the bride of Mr. Wendell Gibbs, son of Mrs. Ione Gibbs of Minneapolis.
We can appreciate the demand on the part of the laity for an elevated ministry. Surely no one will resist an effort to improve leadership, and especially our leaders who are entrusted with our moral and spiritual welfare. But how shall we elevate the ministry?
Seldom has one witnessed a more beautiful ceremony; for magnificence and splendor none have ever excelled it. The church was beautifully decorated with palms and flowers, the chancel being a bower of beauty. Tall vases filled with pink and white peonies together with lighted cathedral candles, showing against a background of palms, formed the elaborate setting.
Under present practices, each and every faith has its own Rules governing the ministry. In some churches the Rules are more rigid than in others. And it is this lack of standardization of requirements that makes for present deficiencies here and there in our church organizations.
But what has the laity to do with the ministry? Who "calls men to preach the gospel? Are men called of God or of the laity? Almost invariably we hear there questions coming from the minister who challenges the right of the laity to dictate any requirements whatever for "God's AnnoInted."
The church was filled to capacity with relatives and friends of the bride and groom, as both are very popular among the social set.
Preceeding the entrance of the bridal party, a program of pre-nuptial music including "Love's Old Sweet Song" and "Belleve Me" was rendered on the violin by Mr. William Hilyard Sr. accompanied by Mrs. Hattie Hall on the organ.
To those who deny the laity the right to demand an improved ministry, the answer is very plain. God, in His admitted omniscience, certainly would not "call" any man who is incapable of doing God's work. It is highly presumptuous to think that God will tolerate ignorance, superstition and immorality among his employees, when man himself demands a higher standard. Our institutions seek far and wide for the very best men available. Our government asks the bravest and best to serve its needs in war and peace. Can God be satisfied with less? Is it fair to assume that anything at all is good enough for God, when we ourselves demand the very best.
Promptly at 7:30 the bridal chorus from "Lohengrin" announced the arrival of the bridal party. The ushers were Homer Cannon and Lloyd Stephens who stretched white satin ribbon on each side of the isle from the entrance of the church to the chancel, Morris Gibbs, brother of the groom, James Combs, Tela Burt and James Henley.
And some of our church organizations have discarded the practice of allowing men to "call themselves" before they are fit in every respect to render the high service God requires and man deserves. The presbyterians have set the standard and all men must measure up, or as nearly up as practicable. The Episcopalians would never think of allowing a churchman to enter the ministry without having first complied with the educational requirements of the church. Special education is a part of the Catholic religion. The Methodists are less particular. The politics of this church is largely in control, and for political expediency, many-men are tolerated who, under other and different circumstances, would not be frocked at all. And perhaps the greatest offenders are the Baptists. They have no standard. They allow any "brother" to be called who declares himself "called of God." Any such open declaration is all sufficient for the Baptists. No one would think of questioning the educational qualifications of a Baptist "brother" who openly declares that he has been "called of God" to preach. Not only is he allowed to preach, but there is the Biblical injunction, used for almost any convenience: "Henceforth, let no man trouble me, for I bear in my body the marks of the Lord Jesus." How can he be "ordered and directed" to seek an education before entering upon the ministry when such a divine injunction is so convenient? The result is an ignorant ministry; a multiplication of little, struggling churches; splits and divisions, and as many "vines and fig trees" as there are ambitious ones "called of God."
The bridesmaids were gorgeously attired in decollete gowns of pastel shades of faille taffeta and wearing a French Normandie vest harmonizing with gowns with chaplets of silver flowers and leaves in their hair. Miss Elanor Castone, the first to appear, wore silver blue faille taffeta made bouffant style; ruffed panniers formed the skirt and the bodice was plain with shawl collar and tiny sleeves of tulle drooping off the shoulders, also a girdle of two toned ribbon, blue and pink. She carried a basket of pink roses and baby breaths.
Next followed Mrs. Morris Gibbs in canary faille taffeta, with folds of taffeta forming the bodice and shoulder straps of the same material. The skirt was fashioned with a lace panel front and tulle girdle. She carried a basket of pink roses and baby breaths.
Mrs. Earl Weber, a bride of the month, then appeared in nile green faille taffeta trimmed in silver with a buoftant skirt scalloped in silver thread and wearing a girdle of flowers. Tiny puffed sleeves drooped off the shoulders of the plain bodice that blended with the basket of pink roses and baby breaths.
Following her came the maid of honor. Miss Kathryn Tandy attired in changeable peach faille taffeta looped over silver lace, the skirt forming the petals of a rose. The bodice was plainly trimmed with a girdle ribbon. With it she wore a Picture Hat, fashioned in Dansant style, having no crown. The brim was of silver lace with two wreaths of peach roses crossing the hair. Drooping from the hat were streamers forming loops of French blue velvet which reached to the hem of her gown. She carried on her arm a bouquet of white peonies and baby breaths.
The laity deserves better than this kind of leadership. The average layman knows that God requires better than this. The layman balks at this kind of self-imposed divinity. The laity rebels and remains at home. There is much talk of a reorganization of the many religions. Some such arrangement is needed to eliminate the inefficient, the ignorant, the self styled, the "uncalled" minister. The laity demands a standardized leadership for the pulpit. Such a brave and courageous step awaits the action of the church organization.
Then came Mrs. Mark Gibbs, sister of the bride in a gown of Spaunia Lace of beautiful orchid shade made in decollete style with orchid girdle of ribbon. Her hat, a Wattean picture model matched her gown in orchid shade trimmed with flowers and streamers tied under her chin. She also carried on her arm a bouquet of deep pink peonies and baby breaths.
The Mississippi spirit has been growing in northern schools for years. But when it attempts to shut Jews out of Harvard, the Massachusetts legislature moves to investigate and many of the state officers grow eloquent. Of course, Harvard shut Negroes out of "the Freshman dormitory" a year or more ago, and nothing was said or done in high public places. Even the Negroes themselves, about Boston, were afraid to say much, lest the thing "get out." You know, there are many Negroes who expect to get rid of an evil by merely forgetting it. Some of them used to complain that the Crisis "advertised" lynchings too much. They think they can get rid of the most awful oppression in the world by a sort of Christian Science hocus-pocus of acting as if the thing does not exist. And so their only cure for such evils is: "Sh-h-h-ee-ee!"
The two little flower girls, Betty Cage and Doris Walker, then entered in fuzzy dresses of shell pink organ-die, each with Dorothy Dainty Bows of pink and white tulle in their hair. The little ring bearer, Morris Gibbs, Jr., nephew of the groom, appeared in a Lord Fauntleroy suit of black velvet and carried the ring on a white satin pillow.
Rev. W. D. Carter of Seattle, Washington, formerly pastor of Pilgrim Baptist church, then took his place at the altar with the bridal party.
But not so the Jews; the Jews will organize and fight an evil and maybe cripple the interests of the evil-doers, and Massachusetts government officials know it. When Harvard wants to start a row with Jews, who are hardly one-fourth as numerous in the United States as Negroes, the state of Massachusetts will interfere. Jews will not endeavor to hide the devilment done them (out of a false feeling of pride); they will expose and fight that devilment—and the world knows it.
Miss Armeda Wilkins, presiding at the organ, then played the bridal chorus in softer tones which announced the arrival of the bride who marched slowly up the aisle unattended.
Her bridal gown was a handsome creation of Duchesse lace and tulle over white ivory satin made with a court train of rose satin fastened to her shoulders with orange blossoms, over which fell her embroidered vell worn cap effect with a wreath of orange blossoms. She carried a shower bouquet of bridal roses, lilies of the valley, and baby breaths.
But Harvard and the Ku Klux, whether they are related or not, make the same mistake: when they are just about to get away with some deviltry against the Negro, they go a bit too far and try to carry it also against the Jew. Then the trouble begins.
She was met at the altar by the groom accompanied by his best man, Mr. Everett Roberts of Indianapolis, Indiana, both attired in dress suits. As they stood at the altar, Mr. Mark Gibbs, brother of the groom, rendered a beautiful tenor solo, "Because." Then Reverend Carter proceeded with the ceremony, the bride being given away by her father, Mr. George Wills, which linked their hearts as one and concluded with an impressive benediction followed with a solo by Mr. Gibbs singing "Rapture" accompanied by Mrs. Hattie Hall on the organ. Mrs. Hall then played the recessional and the bridal party left in reverse order.
The Negroes of Boston, who seemed ashamed to fight Harvard and thereby publish the bold discrimination which was made against them a year ago, should not now be too sensitive to join in the fight side by side with the Jew. The group that is "to proud to fight" in this world, will fare about as well as the "goody-good" boy on the average public school playground.
A delegation from the Philippines has gone to Washington to ask for independence for the islands. After England's experiences with the Irish, we had better give the matter serious thought before refusing the gentlemen from the Pacific, eh? Wot?
Mrs. Wills, mother of the bride
wore an imported model of Black
Canton crepe with French roses of
changeable rose taffeta and flowing
panels lined also with the rose taffeta.
She wore a corsage bouquet of Ward
Every silver-lined cloud can be turned to gold by the sun of human warmth, every obstacle and besetment in life of the black man can be overcome by those who have the will to go forward.
roses. Mrs. Gibbs, mother of the groom, wore a black satin gown with corsage of Ward roses.
The wedding reception was held at the home of the brides parents, Mr. and Mrs. George W. Wills, 1004 Igeart avenue. About 300 friends and relatives filled the spacious rooms and offered their congratulations to the newly-weds. The rooms were artistically decorated in pink and white peonies, mock orange blossoms and maiden hair ferns.
The magnificent and costly presents were displayed upstairs in a room to themselves and showed by their abundance the love and esteem in which the young couple were held by their friends. The bride presented her bridesmaids with pearl necklaces while dainty little silver vanity purses were her gifts to the little flower girls. The groom gave as tokens to his ushers, silk cravats.
The happy couple left Sunday for the summer home of the brides parents, Bumble Bee Cottage on Lake Chisago, where they will spend their honeymoon. They will be at home after July 1, at 3241 Columbus avenue, Minneapolis.
DEPOT RED CAPS TO
GIVE BOAT EXCURSION
The St. Paul Union Station porters (Red Caps), under the name of the Twin City Pleasure Club, will give a moonlight boat excursion Monday evening, July 3, on the Steamboat Red Wing and Barge Manitou. This is the first time the red caps have turtured to give anything in a social way and the selection of the above date points to be a very enjoyable affair, inasmuch as the following day the 4th is a holiday.
Mr. Wm. Bowen, President of the club and Chairman on the committee on arrangements, is working hard with his committee to make the affair one to be remembered.

Dempsey Must Now Fight Wills or Give Up the Title
New York Boxing Commission Tells Dempsey that he Must fight after Wills Places $2,500 Before the Commission as Guarantee of Good Faith in the Bout.
New York City, June 23.—Jack Dempsey must "put up or shut up." Either he must fight Harry Wills or stop claiming the heavyweight championship of the world.
That's the way Harry Wills looked at it Tuesday when he walked into the headquarters of the Boxing Commission and officially challenged Dempsey and at the same time deposited $2,500 as a guaranty of good faith.
Last night the Commission issued the following statement:
"Harry Wills challenges Jack Dempsey for a bout for the championship of the world and deposited this day with the State Athletic Commission, a certified check for $2,500 according to the rules and regulations.
"A delegation of Negroes, including William C. Anderson Jr., Geo. Moore, a promoter from Oregon and George W. Harris, from the Board of Aldermen and several others, called to inquire in reference to the attitude of this commission on mixed bouts in this State.
"The Commission informed these men that there was no match at present scheduled between a colored boxer and a white boxer and when there is such a match it would follow the usual procedure that all bouts have to go through that are scheduled anywhere in this State.
"This will constitute the decision of the Commission on the mixed bout question. In other words it will show how the Commission stands on this matter."
In speaking of Dempsey and the title yesterday, William Muldoon, Chairman of the State Athletic Commission, raked the champion over the coals with a wicked implement.
"Jack Dempsey has not fought one real opponent, and yet he is commercializing the title in a most disgraceful manner," Muldoon told the scribes.
"Dempsey's fight with Willard enabled him to wrest the championship from an outclassed opponent, so far as condition was concerned. In Miske he fought a man who had only shortly before gone through a serious operation. Carpentier he outweighed by probably thirty pounds. The match with Brennan was another joke. Yet one of these four men he would select as his next opponent.
"Wills, the only man capable of giving him anything like a fair match, is seemingly a match not to hisiking. So far as Wills is concerned, he has never challenged Dempsey until today. And we will wait until we hear from Dempsey before we act.
Somebody Wuz Sayin' that—

Johnson Training For Jackson Bout
Johnson Training For Jackson Bout
Former Heavyweight Champion to Fight Jackson July 4—Tickets on Sale.
Columbus, Ohio, June 23.—Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion of the world has started training in earnest for his attempt at a ring come-back, when he is scheduled to meet "Tut" Jackson, the sensational and youthful Washington Court House heavyweight, in a 12-round encounter at Washington Court House on July 4.
Forfeits have already been posted, and unless the authorities interfere everything is in readiness for the big affair, according to Gus Rhodes, Jack's nephew.
Johnson in Training
Johnson has already taken a house on the outskirts of Columbus and has started training with a great deal of enthusiasm. He knows that he will need plenty of work to fit himself for any sort of a test that the Jackson fellow may give him, and according to Gus he has gone into the matter of road work with the same thoroughness that he always has done every portion of the fitting process.
Box Office Opened
Al Haft of Columbus, who has been named by the local boxing commission to handle the promotion of the Jack Johnson-Tut Jackson fight July 4, opened headquarters at a Washington Court House hotel Tuesday. An arena that will seat 20,000 perpersons is to be constructed.
