LONG ILLNESS IS FATAL TO MRS. KITTIE TERRILL
Deceased Had Been in Fraternal Circles Forty Years—Held Many Offices.
WELL KNOWN MEMBER OF AUXILIARY BRANCHES
Was Also Past Grand Matron of National Organization in Illinois District.
On last Sunday, October 7, at 1 o'clock, after almost a year's illness, The Almighty called into eternal rest away from all earthly suffering Mrs. Kitty T. Terrill, beloved wife of Louis Terrill and aunt of Mrs. Harriette Cage. Shortly after the death of her sister, Mrs. Della Pettis, who passed away two years ago this month, Mrs. Terrill became ill with a complication of diseases. After the first attack she rallied and seemed to be recovering, but suffered a relapse about ten months ago. Every means known in medical science was resorted to, but proved of no avail.
Kitty Throckmorton Terrill was born in Maysville, Ky., sixty years ago. Her early life was spent in Indianapolis and Chicago. She was married in 1883 to Louis Terrill, coming to St. Paul shortly afterwards, making their home at 495 Fuller avenue, and had resided at the above address ever since. No woman in the United States was as well known in the auxiliary branches of Masonic circles as Kitty Terrill.
In her early twenties she joined Fidelity Court No. 22, Heroines of Jericho, in Chicago; served as secretary and was a member at the time of her death.
Held Many High Offices.
She affiliated with every branch of Masonry. Her whole life was devoted toward the uplift and betterment of the orders. She was a faithful worker, ever ready to assist others in the time of need and sorrow. Because of the ideals which she fostered, she made many friends and was loved by all who knew her. Mrs. Terrill was past grand matron of Eureka Grand Chapter of Illinois, also past supreme grand matron of the Interstate Grand Chapter of Illinois, a national organization. At various times she had served as matron of St. Paul Chapter No. 29, O. E. S., and was grand deputy of the State of Minnesota for a number of years.
Besides these grand offices she was an active member of St. Paul Chapter No. 29, O. E. S., Fidelity Court No. 7, Crusaders Union Guild No. 2, Chicago, and an honorary member of the Golden Circle, Frank J. Rickard's assembly.
After the expiration of her term as grand matron she was sent to Boston and represented the grand chapter, where she received the office of the first supreme royal grand matron of the Union Grand Chapter of the United States.
The funeral rites began on Tuesday evening, at which time the Daughters of Isis held their services, with Illustrious Commandress Mrs. Ida Broyle conducting.
Wednesday afternoon at 1:30 P. M. the funeral was held from her late residence under the auspices of Eureka Grand Chapter by Mrs. Louise V. Webb, past grand matron and representative from that chapter. Remarks and scripture reading by Rev. H. L. P. Jones of St. James, A. M. E. church, to which Mrs. Terrill belonged, having transferred her membership from Quinn Chapel, Chicago. The obituary was read by Mrs. W. A. Hilyard, Sr. "Face to Face," a favorite hymn, was sung by Mrs. Gladys James. Prayer by Reverend A. H. Lealtad.

THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN
THE WOMAN WHO WAS THE MOST FAMOUS WOMAN IN THE WORLD
Miss Edith Spencer, famous "Blues" singer, will appear with the "Shuffle Along" Company when the show opens at the Metropolitan theater in Minneapolis Sunday. Sissle and Blake will prove that their production is the best ever produced. Besides Miss Spencer many other artists are with the company.
LOS ANGELES VISITOR IS GUEST OF BROTHER
St. Paul was honored last week by a visit from one of Los Angeles, Cal., foremost race women in the personage of Mrs. Malcolm H. Patton, who was the guest of her brother and sister-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. George Harvey, 726 St. Anthony avenue, on her way home from Chicago and New Orleans, La.
Mrs. Patton is active in all civic and club movements of the coast city. She is first vice-president of the Phys-Art-Lit-Mo Study club, also secretary of the board of management of the Y. W. C. A. Besides these organizations she is the only member of our race belonging to the P. T. A., an association composed of 1,100 white teachers.
Her children lack none of the executive ability which is so keenly displayed by their mother, both being highly accomplished and well known in the younger social set.
Malcolm H. Patton, Jr., is a noted baritone singer and head pharmacist in the Howard Drug Store, a leading white concern in Los Angeles, whilst attending the University of California. His sister, Juanita, possesses a sweet soprano voice and is pursuing her studies in the university at Berkeley, Cal.
Carter Serves Urban League
Mr. Elmer A. Carter, secretary of the St. Paul Urban league, is pursuing his new duties in a manner which convinces the Bulletin that he thoroughly understands his job. A survey of conditions which cover every angle of welfare means hours of patient labor besides numerous difficulties will confront him from time to time.
We hope that the people of St. Paul will appreciate the value of his services to our race and assist him whenever possible to do so.
Mr. Carter will leave Monday afternoon to attend the eighth annual convention of the Urban league in Kansas City, Mo., which convenes October 16 to 19.
Robinson's Syncopators, real jazz artists from Chicago, were headliners on the bills at the States and Capitol theaters, respectively. They fairly radiate jazz. Every member is a real artist on his chosen instrument. Their unique offering, entitled "Camp Meeting," received obstreperous applause, their audiences being loath to let the bill proceed.
The Syncopators are under the personal direction of Mr. Bill Robinson.
Better make your reservations, as space is going fast at the Business League Exposition.

Mill City Man is Burned as Blow Torch Explodes
Presence of Mind Is Responsible for Narrow Escape of Popular Young Man.
J. Howard Curry, 211 32nd street west, Minneapolis, was painfully burned about the face, arms and leg last Friday morning when a blowtorch exploded in the shop of the Fawkes Motor company, where he is employed as a master mechanic. Preparatory to doing some soldering, Mr. Curry had attempted to generate the torch, which had gone out. The second trial proved costly, as suddenly and without warning, the torch exploded, showering its victim about the face, arms and left leg with flaming gasoline. Although in great pain, Mr. Curry retained his presence of mind and beat out the fire on his face, then ran and wrapped himself in an auto curtain to smother the flame on his clothing. A fellow workman had secured a fire extinguisher by this time which put out the rest of the blaze.
Removed to Hospital.
Fortunately Mr. Curry wore a pair of goggles or his sight might have been permanently destroyed or at least greatly damaged. The burns proved to be too serious for the first aid treatment and he was rushed to the Eitel hospital, where he is improving rapidly.
Mr. Curry is one of the well known and popular young men of Minneapolis and has many friends in the Twin Cities. His injuries, though painful, might have been more severe but for his quick mental work. He has been with the Fawkes Motor company for a number of years and is rated as one of their master mechanics. The many friends of Mr. Curry join in wishing for him a speedy recovery.
Mrs. Julia Clark of Indianapolis arrived in the city Wednesday to attend the funeral of her best friend, Mrs. Kitty Terrell.
Mrs. W. S. Williams and daughter, Mrs. Harry Nays and little son Harry, Jr., arrived in the city Saturday for an indefinite visit with her daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. R. S. Harris, 347 Cathedral place.
The Sunshine Charity Art club met at the home of Mrs. Cora Wallace, 490 Carroll avenue, Thursday afternoon.
VICTIM OF AMES GOPHER GAME IS DEAD FROM HURT
Jack Trice Succumbs at College Hospital at Ames Following Fatal Scrimmage.
MADE RECORD OF NOTE IN ATHLETIC CIRCLES
Injured Twice in Game but Said He Was "All Right;" Taken Out in Third Quarter.
Jack Trice, Negro star tackle on the Iowa State College football team, died Monday at Ames, Iowa, from injuries received during the game with the University of Minnesota at Northrop field last Saturday.
In the second play of the afternoon, Trice's left shoulder was dislocated, but he refused to leave the game. The shoulder was bandaged and he was allowed to continue.
To the 11,000 spectators, Trice's injury seemed to have little effect on his playing. Time after time he stopped the Minnesota plays directed at his position, and tore open wide gaps in the Gopher's line to allow the Iowa backs to make gains.
Insisted He Was All Right.
Late in the third period another play was directed at his position and Trice broke through to block the Gopher's secondary defense. He blocked his man but he failed to get up.
When his teammates came to his side after the play had been completed, the star tackle struggled to a sitting posture and insisted that he was "all right."
Against his protests he was carried off the field between two of the Ames players.
He was taken to University hospital where he was attended by Dr. L. J. Cook, who found that the injuries were more serious than the spectators had imagined. After a consultation with Dr. Benjamin Dvorak, former Minnesota football player, who is now trainer at Ames, it was decided that Trice could safely make the trip home with the team.
Rushed to Hospital.
Upon arriving at Ames, Trice was rushed to the college hospital where his condition seemed favorable until 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon when his respiration increased. Physicians were called into consultation and Dr. Oliver J. Fay of Des Moines, nationally known stomach specialist, was called to perform an operation. However, the plan of an operation was given up when it was apparent that the end was near.
All-Around Athlete.
Trice, in addition to being a football player, was an all-around athlete and student. He won the shot putting event in the Missouri Valley conference freshmen meet last spring. He was popular among his fellow students and the professors and was a fine student, his average grade last year having been 90.
Trice came here as a freshman with six other boys whom Coach S. S. Willamah had coached at Cleveland
SECURES ABSOLUTE
DIVORCE IN COURT
Absolute divorce was given in the district court by Judge Chas. Bechhoefer to Sylvania Roberts from Adeline Smith Roberts Thursday on the grounds of inhuman treatment, cruelty and desertion. The defendant did not appear to contest the proceeding and the court gave the decision because of default. Mr. Roberts is quite well known in the younger set and is a member of the Social and Literary Club of Memorial Baptist Church. He was represented in the divorce proceeding by Attorney Guy W. Kimball.

Daughter of Late Editor is Wed To Chicago Man
Popular Local Girl Is Married to Well Known Realtor of Windy City.
Autumn with its hazy, mellow days and the foliage of nature arrayed in gorgeous tints of copper, red and gold bids fair to rival summer as the chosen season for the numerous brides.
The most beautiful wedding of the early autumn was solemnized Wednesday when Miss Edythella Adams, daughter of Mrs. J. Q. Adams and the late J. Q. Adams, editor of the Appeal Press, became the wife of Fenton Harsh of Chicago, Ill., in the presence of her immediate relatives and friends at her home, 527 St. Anthony avenue.
A beautiful solo, "Three Questions," by J. Rosamond Johnson was rendered by Mrs. Gladys James, with her rich soprano voice, preceded the ceremony. Promptly at 5 o'clock the wedding march from Lohengrin, with Mrs. Bismarck Archer at the piano, announced the bridal party.
Attended by Sister.
The bride's only attendant, Mrs. Jasper Gibbs, her sister as the matron of honor was the first to enter. She was exquisitely gowned in orchid

According to the report of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., submitted at their meeting Tuesday night, Bannon's Department Store, Seventh and Minnesota streets, is now among the institutions recognizing the "color line," especially in the cafeteria department. Recently two race women went there for luncheon and after being "passed up" by the waitress several times, requested that their order be taken as they were due back to their respective positions. They were informed by the head of the department that "patronage of color" was not desired and their orders were refused. The affair was immediately placed in the hands of the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People for investigation.

Star Ames Tackle Avows Creed Before Fatal Scrimmage
Ames, Oct. 9.—John "Jack" Trice, Negro, Iowa state college football star, who suffered injuries Saturday in the Minnesota game from which he died, wrote the following creed the night before the game:
"The Curtis Hotel, Minneapolis, Minn., Oct. 5.
"My thoughts just before the first real college game of my life:
"The honor of my race, family and self are at stake. Every one is expecting me to do big things. I will. My whole body and soul are to be thrown recklessly about the field tomorrow.
"Every time the ball is snapped, I will be trying to do more than my part. On all defensive plays, I must break through the opponent's line and stop the play in their territory.
"Beware' of mass interference. Fight low, with your eyes open and toward the play. Roll back the interference. Watch out for crossbacks and reverse end runs. Be on your toes every minute if you expect to make good."
(Signed) Jack.
The creed or letter, unaddressed, was found in Trice's coat pocket this morning. This afternoon it was read by President R. A. Pearson to 3,000 students and faculty members of the college who attended memorial services held on the campus in the dead athlete's honor.
MRS. MARY BROWN DIES
AT HOME OF DAUGHTER
Mrs. Mary Brown, formerly of Kansas City, Mo., but a resident of St. Paul for the past three years, died Friday morning, October 5, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Lillian Kaufman, from a complication of diseases after a long illness. She was born in Kansas City November 12, 1866. Shortly after arriving in St. Paul she became a member of Bethel A. M. E. church, being faithful until her death. Her funeral was held on Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock from Bethel A. M. E. church, St. Paul.
Rev. Thomas officiated with scripture reading by Rev. H. C. Claybrooks, pastor of Wayman Mission, Minneapolis. She was a devoted mother and leaves a daughter and four sons. Interment was in Oakland cemetery and funeral arrangements were in charge of W. Squire Neal, undertaker of Minneapolis.

Williams of Salt Lake City, Utah, arrived in the city Wednesday evening to visit her mother, Mrs. M. Cheairs, and sister, Mrs. Owen Howell, 941 Rondo street. Mrs. Williams will remain indefinitely.
The Charity Sewing Circle will meet at the home of Mrs. Rose Davis, 387 N. St. Albans street. The president of the club wishes any one who has an old heating stove to give toward charity and communicate with Mrs. Wiley, Dale 0185.
local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., together with the executive committee, interviewed Mr. Hugo Hirshman, the manager, and admission was made that the "color line" was employed in the cafeteria, but it was for due reason that white waitresses refused to serve persons of color. The BANNON STORE was then informed that every ounce of strength in the association, together with its legal and financial departments, would be used to eradicate such un-American principles. Further, that the ladies denied service would be instructed to immediately file suit under the Minnesota Civil Right Bill against the BANNON STORE and that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People stood ready to fight them through the courts.

MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY
PRICE: FIVE CENTS
PUBLIC URGED TO "HAVE A HEART" OCTOBER 15-22
Mass Meeting Will Be Held at Pilgrim Baptist Church Sunday Afternoon, Oct. 14.
SPEAKER WILL TELL OF COMMUNITY CHEST AID
Division "G" Expected to Go Over the Top in Securing Quota of Subscriptions.
A mass meeting will be held at Pilgrim Baptist church, Cedar street and Summit avenue, Sunday afternoon, October 14, at 4 P. M., for the purpose of stimulating the Community Chest drive, which officially has been declared for the week of October 15-21. A musical program has been arranged and several speakers will be present. The choir of Pilgrim Baptist church, the quartette of troup 55, Boy Scouts, and several instrumental numbers will constitute the musical program. Talks on the Community Chest will be given by Mr. Elmer H. Carter, executive secretary of the Urban league; Mr. Peter McFarland, Miss Amy Hall of the Central Avenue branch of the Y. W. C. A. and others.
Help Division "G."
Among the race beneficiaries of the Chest are Crispus Attucks Home, The Y. W. C. A. and the Urban league. The imperativeness of funds to maintain these and the many other institutions that will be supported calls for many dollars. So much is expected from the populace. Division "G," of which Mr. S. Ed Hall is chairman, will endeavor at the Sunday afternoon mass meeting to impress on the race in St. Paul the necessity of helping put over the drive. The captains of the different teams will give their best service so Division G will make a favorable showing.
Have a Heart.
The importance eof supporting the Community Chest has been recognized by all organizations in the city and each of them is lending every effort to help take care of the needy this winter. In keeping with the spirit the race in the city are urged to contribute as generously as possible toward this fund. Solicitors will be out bright and early next week, so no one should fall to do their part toward making this campaign secure its quota and go over the necessary amount. Remember, the dollars given now will probably save a life during the cold days that will be here in a few weeks. HAVE A HEART!
Sid Williams is Tie for 1st Prize
Sid Williams is Tie for 1st Prize
Mr. Sidney Williams, 1366 Blair street, popular pianist, tied for first honors with Miss Doty Reimler of Minneapolis in the radio jazz piano contest held by the WLAG broadcasting station September 27. The Northwest radio fans were unable to decide which was the better, so Monday WLAG declared the contest a tie between Mr. Williams and Miss Reimler. The first prize was a Cutting & Washington three-tube regenerative set. Both competitors for first place will receive this radio outfit.
Mr. Williams has won several prizes in piano contest, although quite a young man. He is well known in the Twin Cities especially, and is the ivory tickler for Steven's Harmony Kings of Minneapolis.
It took WLAG almost two weeks to decide from the votes of radio fans that poured into the office and as no further progress was being made, it was necessary to decide both Mr. Williams and Miss Reimer were victors. But "Sid" says, "what will I do with a radio set."
Dr. Ahrue Feamon, well known dentist of Chicago, Ill., arrived in St. Paul Wednesday to attend the Harrah-Adams nuptials.
Entered as second-class matter February 20, 1922, at the postoffice at St. Paul, Minn., under the Act of March 3, 1879.

WHERE THE PAVEMENT ENDED
Indelphia Ledger recently quoted an article by Miller, Dean of Howard University, on man in Johnston, Pa. The survey was made that one finds difficulty in adjusting such deplorable conditions could exist in the economics, laxity of morals and distress almost a dozen to the room, with the health department to better conditions. Out of the population of nearly 5,000 of our own home; this is not the result of lack of owner, but, according to the statement, to the fact the restrictions and limit prevent their purchasing out side this area, such conditions could it be expected that the law for law be held by those who are a later because of the environment. Where service abundant, what more can be honored, a reign of lawlessness? The fault can be those who made such conditions a reality, the prevalent the best of welfare cannot be denied.
I came into limelight a few weeks ago, carried all race people, who had lived there, of the corporate limits following the knee riot. His honor, the mayor, deeply critical to adopt such drastic measure it necessary to use one ounce of iron a decent place for the Negro to live, proved the negro's undoing. Now a new for the steel city.
Mayor-elect will have the same city and state or not he his regime shall be beneficial or not he will be benefited by the rule. No city can flourish with dens of vice group and more favorable conditions for such the higher things of life without the doing. If good citizenship is desirable the necessary. The Negro in Johnston is not under the identical circumstance. If he it is only because the department had last, but not least, the mayor himself. The Negro is just a human being like of a more progressive type consideri
the mire can be expected more mire. One expected more healthful activities. Fortunate incident, but it should wake up into the fact that proper surroundings regardless of race or previous servitude, able to many others where many are forced action of a few. When crime is committed it is an individual matter, but when by a population is branded as criminals. The Ase themselves to the fact that the communication, fair treatment and hygienic sure the safeguard of Liberty and Order.
The Philadelphia Ledger recently quoted an article from Professor Kelly Miller, Dean of Howard University, on condition as he found them in Johnston, Pa. The survey was made last spring and is of such that one finds difficulty in adjusting himself to the fact that such deplorable conditions could exist in a civilized nation. Abject economics, laxity of morals and disease breeding shanties, housing almost a dozen to the room, with no effort on the part of the health department to better conditions, is a picture of Johnston. Out of the population of nearly 5,000 only two families own their own home; this is not the result of lack of desire to be a property owner, but, according to the statement of Professor Miller, is due to the fact the restrictions and limitations are so severe as to prevent their purchasing out side this area.
With such conditions could it be expected that life be what it should or regard for law be held by those who are unable to rise out of the gutter because of the environment. Where civic pride is dormant and vice abundant, what more can be hoped for than, sooner or later, a reign of lawlessness? The fault can be correctly charged to those who made such conditions a reality. When such conditions are prevalent the best of welfare cannot be promoted for all concerned.
Johnston came into limelight a few weeks ago when Mayor Caufield ordered all race people, who had lived there less than seven years, out of the corporate limits following the killing of police officers and a near riot. His honor, the mayor, deemed the situation sufficiently critical to adopt such drastic measures but never had he thought it necessary to use one ounce of prevention by making Jonhston a decent place for the Negro to live. The following election proved the mayor's undoing. Now a new city executive is stated for the steel city.
The new mayor-elect will have the same city and same condition to face. Whether or not his regime shall be beneficial is dependant upon whether or not he will be benefited by the mistake of his predecessor. No city can flourish with dens of vice and pools of slime fortone group and more favorable conditions for others. No people can reach the higher things of life without the proper incentive for so doing. If good citizenship is desirable their good environment is necessary. The Negro in Johnston is no exception to other races under the identical circumstance. If he were a liability to the city, it is only because the department of health, the welfare board and last, but not least, the mayor himself failed to make him an asset. The Negro is just a human being like any other race, though of a more progressive type considering his disadvantages.
Out of the mire can be expected more mire. Out of cleaner things can be expected more healthful activities. We seriously regret the unfortunate incident, but it should wake up those of the other group to the fact that proper surroundings build better character, regardless of race or previous servitude. The Johnston affair is a simile to many others where many are forced to bear the blunt of the action of a few. When crime is committed by other nationalities it is an individual matter, but when by a race person the Negro population is branded as criminals. The American public must arouse themselves to the fact that the commonwealth requires the education, fair treatment and hygienic surroundings of all people as the safeguard of Liberty and Order.
A RACE JURIST
vantage of unit thinking and putting it theoretical usage is beginning to make. From a political angle it receives its has been discussed for some time; not usually execute. Out of the fact that both man parties are endeavoring to each seize the possibility of placing a race man on a recent meeting, following a split in the race man was invited to the convention himself only he requested that the committee composed of race delegates, who the claim for a race man on the judiciary as this impression that the convention must have been so far reaching. But so themselves up behind one man that the so-called a winner.
Strategic vote of Cook County lies within the. The effectiveness of this vote was reelected of Leuder, last spring, for city mayor,OWER, the Negro in this particular course a successful campaign providing them solidly behind the race candidate on reeves the committee did at the convention of having a race man sit on the sup can be realized if those interested will fork consistently to achieve the desired. But the lack of competent men that have a racing men in positions by the decision of operation on the part of the race to work the race in Cook County want a raceench at a salary of $15,000 per year? We get out and work and the long desired pay.
The advantage of unit thinking and putting it into practical instead of theoretical usage is beginning to make itself more strongly felt. From a political angle it receives its first impetus. The theory has been discussed for some time; now comes the chance to actually execute. Out of the fact that both Democratic and Republican parties are endeavoring to each secure control in Illinois comes the possibility of placing a race man on the judicial bench. At a recent meeting, following a split in the hithertofore solid ranks a race man was invited to the convention. Instead of declaring for himself only he requested that the convening body hear a committee composed of race delegates, whose purpose it was to press the claim for a race man on the judicial ticket. So formidable was this impression that the convention named Edward H. Morris as one of the several candidates. The first heat was won by the co-operation of the race factions for a definite purpose. If this spirit of race pride and cosmopolitan interest on the part of the delegation had not been displayed the effectiveness of their aim would not have been so far reaching. But so earnestly did they line themselves up behind one man that the solidness of the request proved a winner.
The strategic vote of Cook County lies within the Negro area of Chicago. The effectiveness of this vote was realized forcibly in the defeat of Leuder, last spring, for city mayor. Holding the balance of power, the Negro in this particular county should be able to wage a successful campaign providing the rank and file will stand as solidly behind the race candidate on registration and election day as the committee did at the convention. The long coveted desire of having a race man sit on the superior bench of the county can be realized if those interested will forget individual gain and work consistently to achieve the desired. In the past it has not been the lack of competent men that has prevented the race from placing men in positions by the decision of the vote, but lack of co-operation on the part of the race to work as a unit to this end. Does the race in Cook County want a race man to sit on its judicial bench at a salary of $15,000 per year? Then let every loyal citizen get out and work and the long desired event will become a reality.

"The honor of my race, family and self are at stake. Every one is expecting me to do big things. I will. My whole body and soul are to be thrown recklessly about the field tomorrow." Was it a premonition that caused John Trice to write these words just before the game with Minnesota that caused his death? Whether or not, no one can say, but unanimous is the opinion that he considered race pride, family honor and self virtues, the things that carried him into the scrimage to win. The realization that much depended on him was because he expected to do more than his share. He knew it was expected of him. Within his athletic chest
beat a big heart coursing red blood through a real man's veins that is only known by that type of chap the world calls Hero. Just like the game of life as played by real men, he was in every play. He sought to break up every interference that prevented his associates from reaching their goal. He forgot his personal safety in the quest of doing honor to his race, family and self. Without selfishness or desire to foster his own popularity, he plunged madly, recklessly into the game to be a credit to those he loved. Was it costly? Yes, we all admit it so, but his death brought the entire nation of college athletics to the fact that 'neath the jersey of a bronze tackle was a spirit to be a credit to the race. Twenty-one summers of ambition and an equal number of winters of physical development were fatally damaged in less than one hour. A few more hours and all that was mortal of Ames' star tackle went back to its maker. His record will stand athletically immortal. The grit, courage and race pride displayed by Trice is characteristic to the new Negro youth.
A desire to do greater things in an unselfish way by seeking to advance race, family and self. The memory of the Ames tackle shall be permanent. No greater lesson for race advancement could be taught than that given by Trice. One thinks of a combination of every faculty that constitutes manhood when his valor is taken in consideration. A martyr to athletics defeated physically, yet he gained the greatest moral victory for his race ever won on the Northwest gridiron. A sermon to every Negro youth can be gotten out of the creed of the dead hero. What ever you go into remember the honor of the race, your family and individual self lies in every move made, whether it be in the game of football or the bigger game of life.

Strange Adventurer Made Fortunes on Globe Trotting Tours but Died an Imbecile.
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Mexico City, Mexico, Oct. 13.
"The man with a thousand dreams," "the man who made ten fortunes and lost nine," "the man who claimed seven bloods, yet owned but one," adventurer, diplomat, wizard of finance, distiller of fancies that thrilled three continents, William Henry Ellis, is dead. He died at his residence in this city on the 24th day of September, alone, rich and in a delirium of dream which visualized him the ruler of all the known world of men.
"Will" Ellis was one of the romantic figures in the multi colored life of the American Negro. He was a native of Texas. Except that his blood was Negro in the main, little is actually known of his ancestry. It may have been any one of the several strains that he was in the habit of laying claim to possessing; no one is sure about it.

great Menelik, the one time Emperor of Abyssinia. It was his acquaintance with this important royal personage that placed Ellis in an unenviable light with the American Department of State during the late President Roosevelt's administration. Heavily jeweled saddles, weapons and other gifts were bestowed upon King Menelik by Ellis, who in turn was made Duke of Harrar and Hawasha, territory covering 1,600,000 fertile acres, by the grateful monarch. Ellis had contracted trade agreement with the Abyssinian ruler that stipulated that he get the approval of the United States government before it became valid.
Ellis went to Washington, procured the approval of the United States government of the trade agreement, but the American Secretary of State insisted that one of the department's under-secretaries should accompany the colored man to the Court of Menelik and conclude the agreement as its representative. On the passage abroad, the under-secretary was lost overboard and when the fact of his death came to hand an ugly rumor was started which included Ellis as the direct cause of the government's representative losing his life under rather disquieting circumstances. The charge was never brought home to the colored man, but it was the direct reason of his making the City of Mexico his permanent place of residence.
His son arrived here last week and is now accompanying the remains of his father to the States. William Henry Ellis was about 65 years old. His son stated that his father would be buried at Mt. Vernon, New York.

Two-million-volt artificial lightning is being created in the research laboratories of the General Electric company, Pittsfield, Mass., in order that buildings and high power electric transmission lines may be protected against the powerful "electrical dynamite" that nature discharges during storms, reports the Kansas City Star.
F. W. Peer, Jr., engineer-in charge of the spectacular experiments now in progress, explains that in addition to the trouble that engineers have in keeping power current from escaping from the conductors there is the very important problem of lightning protection. A few million horsepower are released in a fraction of a millionth of a second when lightning crashes. Electrical engineers must know how to prevent this destructive force from reaching the conductors of power lines or they must arrange so that it will discharge harmlessly to the ground when it does get to the line.
The highest voltage actually used at the present time for the commercial transmission of power is 220,000 volts on a line in California, but the General Electric company has an experimental million-volt line. Mr. Peek declared that it is too early to say whether such high voltages will ever be acquired in practice.
RETORT WAS RATHER GOOD
Evidently There Were Humorists in the Missouri Legislature of the Year 1887.
W. O. L. Jewett of the Shelbina Democrat tells an incident in the legislature of 1887, in which Mark Twain figured:
"Henry Newman, representing Randolph county, was the wit of the house, and was trying to secure the passage of a bill to amend the stock law. This, Robert Bodine, representing Monroe county, was opposing. Mr. Newman said in his humorous style:
"I was in the gentleman's county once. I made a speech at a big plenice in Florida, and I thought I made a good one. In it I referred to the fact that we were close to the place where Mark Twain was born. After I was through, one of the gentleman's constituentts, a tall, raw-boned long-haired, unkempt individual, came up, and shaking his finger in my face said: "What liars you politicians are. I have lived here nigh onto fifty years and there was nary a man named Twain about here." "The gentleman from Monroe county immediately was on his feet to reply: "Mr. Speaker, I want it distinctly understood that when the gentleman from Randolph was in Monroe county it was before the enactment of any stock law."—Kansas City Star.
Not Prepared.
The old deacon was the kindest of men, deeply religious and always ready with a good word. One day while he was driving to town he overtook an Italian peddler with a large pack on his back. Stopping his horse, the deacon suggested that the man ride. The Italian carefully stored his pack in the back of the spring wagon and then climbed to the seat beside the good deacon.
For some time the two talked pleasantly. Then there was a rather long pause, and, thinking to improve the occasion in a religious sense, the deacon turned and asked, "My friend, are you prepared to die?"
With a shriek the Italian sprang to the ground and disappeared into the nearby woods. The calls of the deacon only hastened the fellow's flight, and neither the deacon nor any one else ever saw him again in that neighborhood. It seems that the peddler was not prepared.
Sentiment and Sense
It was evening by the sea and the poetess walked with the professor along the margin of the ocean. "Don't you love to see the phosphorescence on the waves?" she said. "What can it be, I wonder? Is it the mermalids lighting up their lamps, or the glow from the sea fairies' ballroom? Or can it be the reflection of golden treasure stored in the vasty caverns of the deep?" "I think not, madam," said the professor. "It is only quite recently that the discovery of luminous bacillus has rendered possible any general explanation of the phenomenon, and even yet its wide applicability remains to be proved. It is, however, generally attributed to the decaying organic substances of diseased fish."—Boston Herald.
She Had It Right
Two Irishmen had visited St. Paul's cathedral. One was from the country and had been taken to the famous building by his friend, who wished him to be duly impressed by its grandeur. As they came out, the resident of the city said:
"Well, Mike, and phwat do you think of it? Isn't it grand?" "Pat," said the one from the country, "it hates the divil!"

Fairy Tale
MARY GRAHAM BONNER
SUNFLOWER FAMILY
Mother Sunflower told the Sunflower children she wanted to tell them something of Sunflower history.
The Sunflower children looked so bright that Mother Sunflower knew it would not be hard to teach them. And then, too, the children would not object because there would be no dates to remember and they would not have to answer questions at the end of the lesson.
They knew that, for Mother Sunflower had talked to them before of what they must do and of some of the family ways and she had never made them recite the lessons afterward which was a great help!
It was true that the Sunflower children did as they were supposed to do, but then, of course, they were very bright anyway. But yet we cannot think of them as the brightest of all creatures for they did not have to recite.
And often it is easy to understand something but very hard to explain it and to answer questions about it.
"In the first place," said Mother Sunflower, "we are all made up of many little flowers."
The Sunflower children all nodded their heads as though to say: "Yes, Mother dear."
"The rose is a flower all by itself. It is not made up of many little roses. But each one of our heads is made up of many little flowers clustered together to make one big flower or head.
"You will notice that if you look at yourselves carefully and with an eye to family history and family ways."
Mr. Wind came along then and blew just so the Sunflower children could take little looks at their own heads and each saw that what Mother Sunflower had said was quite, quite true.
"We're one of the largest families in the world, among the flowers," Mother Sunflower continued.
"In fact I think we are members of the largest group of flowers without any exception and that is a splendid honor to belong to such a big family.
"Members of our family are in all parts. Insects admire our great beauty and our size and they come to visit us.
"Oh yes, we have visitors. Sometimes we're very busy with callers. In fact we're almost as busy with callers as the lady who sits on yonder back porch."
Mother Sunflower waved toward the direction of a back porch upon which sat a beautiful lady dressed in white. She was very dainty and very graceful and very lovely to look at.
"Yes," said Mother Sunflower, "we have almost as many callers as has that lady. And you know how her porch is filled, day after day with callers. Of course her callers are people and not insects!"
"We know that," said the Sunflower callers.
"Although I love a very bright-golden color above all colors," Mother Sunflower continued, "still I do love to see the lady wear white.
"White is so becoming to her and she always looks so summery. That is a word which I've heard, and so I sup-
"Yes, Mother Dear."
pose I may use it. It means that when people look summery they look like the summer time, lovely and at their best.
"Well, she has callers all the time. Very early in the morning I see her sitting with a book before her, but it is no time' at all before the callers begin to come.
"She is so popular. And yet she has only one head!
"That shows how wonderful she must be. We are loved because there are so many little flowers or so many little heads which make up each of our single heads. And our many little heads have flower sweetness in them.
"But she is just as popular with one head! It is remarkable and yet it is perfectly true. People love to talk to her and hear what she has to say, for what she has to say is very wise and very witty. And she is kindly with all her wisdom, never saying things to hurt.
"I know that, for I can tell by the happy expressions on the faces of the callers when they leave. And she gives her callers sweets to eat, too, very often—just as we do with our callers.
"But I must tell you of some of our rich and society cousins. They are the Chrysanthemums, Dahlias, Asters, and many others.
"Oh, never forget little Sunflower children, that we belong to a great, enormous flower family, and what could be a greater honor for flowers? Nothing could be a greater honor.
That is the answer to that question!"

PUGILIST DIES, FRIENDLESS AND WITHOUT MONEY
Pauper's Grave Given Young Peter Jackson, Who Was Once Top Notch Leatherpusher.
Baltimore, Md., Oct. 13.—Penniless and friendless, Young Peter Jackson was laid to rest in a pauper grave Wednesday.
A score of years ago, the prizefighter, whose real name was Simpson Tompkins, was at the height of his cereer. One of the toughest welterweights who ever drew on a glove, he met all of the brilliant fighters of that time and never was known to be knocked out.
At one time he was a sparring partner for the brilliant Joe Gans. He fought Sam Langford, Jack Johnson, Joe Waltcott and a hundred others. They were sometimes more skillful than he, and won on points, but they seldom had Young Peter on the mat.
Young Peter Jackson died at his boarding place on Greenwillow street, of natural causes. First public notice came when a brother reported that he had died and his relatives were without funds to bury him. Following the briefest of services Wednesday, the body was laid to rest in an unmarked grave. His mother is said to reside in Kansas City.
At the height of his career Young Peter Jackson's friends were legion. As money gave out, friends departed.
Records show that Young Peter Jackson lost the decision to Jack Johnson in 12 rounds in 1906. The year before he lost two 15-round bouts to Sam Langford and drew another. He beat Langford in five rounds in 1906, but lost the decision the next time they met in 15 rounds. It took Langford, the "old master," 20 rounds to beat Jackson in 1907.
King Tut Malign Yet Influential
King Tut Malign Yet Influential
(By the Associated Negro Press)
London, Oct. 13.—The superstition that Pharaoh Tutankhamen still exerts a malign influence upon the disturbers of his tomb has been revived by the death in London yesterday of the Hon. Aubery Herbert, half-brother of the late Earl of Carnarvon.
A large number of Carnarvon's relatives gathered just before the death to hear a lecture by Howard Carter, an American, who was part of the expedition which found the tomb. Mr. Carter says that less than one-fourth of the treasures have been removed and urged that the work be continued.
He was confident that when the pharaoh's sarcophaus was opened this fall it would reveal the king in all the magnificent panoply of death, wearing a jeweled crown and dressed in sumptuous robes with precious embellishments. After the body had been examined and the "claims of science satisfied," he said the king would be allowed to continue his eternal sleep in his original shrine. Carnarvon's relatives, haunted by the recurring deaths, are not decided what course to pursue.

Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 13.—Clark university officials Monday reported that registration for the fall term, which opened last Wednesday, totaled 500, the largest in the history of the school, and that more applicants are seeking admission daily. Dr. J. W. Simmons, president of the school, said that a strong faculty had been secured and that the work for the new sessions had begun with splendid possibilities.
The Charity Sewing Circle met on Monday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Quitman Hicks, 953 Rondo street. A very interesting meeting was held; the club had the pleasure of listening to Mrs. A. R. McGill, president of the Needle Work Guild who gave an outline on the work for the future.
Mrs. McGill made a liberal donation of money and material for which the Circle is highly grateful.
Five new members were added and a full report was read on the activities completed by the committee for the Masque Ball which will be given on Hallowe'en.
Mrs. Harry Esters succeeded Mrs. Sarah Warren who resigned as Vice-president.
A quilt was presented to the club by Mrs. Stella Wiley to be disposed of in the near future. It was made by Mrs. Saunders of Duluth and Mrs. Wiley. Many pairs of childrens shoes were donated by Mrs. M. Cyrus. Mrs. Lizzie Hall Dwyer who has been visiting her nephew and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Orri Hall, 727 St. Anthony avenue, left for her home Wednesday night. Enroute she will visit in Aurora, Ill., and Chicago. Mrs. Dwyer was a former resident of St. Paul and has a host of friends here who entertained her lavishly. On last Thursday Mrs. E. Echols gave a luncheon and theatre party in her honor. The same evening Mrs. J. Robinson 526 Gaultier street, honored Mrs. Dwyer at a seven o'clock dinner. Covers were laid for six guests.
Mrs. Marcia Valle who visited Mrs. Dwyer in Pittsburgh was hostess at a theatre party at the Capitol Theatre on Tuesday evening.
The home of Mrs. T. H. Lyles, 678 Anthony avenue, was the scene of a twilight musical on Thursday evening with Mrs. Dwyer and Miss Amy Hall of Pittsburgh sharing honors. Those who appeared on the program were Mrs. S. E. Hall, Mrs. Cora Grissom, Professor Weir, Morgan's Orchestra. Mrs. Lyles was assisted by Mrs. J. E. Johnson.

Plan to Stop
;
North Migration
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C., Oct. 13.--It is
now proposed that a commission of
representative colored men shall be
formed to complete a study of the
problem and also to devise a plan
whereby the alarming migration of
Negroes from the South to the North
may be stopped. The plan was re-
cently presented to President Cool-
idge by H. L. Remmel, Republican
national committeeman from Arkan-
sas. Remmel declares that should
the migration continue for two or
three years longer the South would
be without any Negro labor. Remmel
is a large plantation owner and says
that cotton cannot be raised success-
fully by any other than Negro labor.
The President has. not intimated
when the commission will be ap-
pointed.

ney and past exalted ruler of Gopher

The Tall Talk
Club
By CLARA C. HOLMES
(@, 1923, by MeClure Newspaper Syndicate)
“We've got talking machines in War-
/rington, but they're no credit to the
town.”
“Why not, Aunt Hepsy?*
“In the fust place, there's Susanna
Simpiton and Seta Shooster, whose
tongues are forever going. In the sec
ond place, our graphophones are worn-
out contraptions, We Warrington
folks attended Clearspring’s anniver-
sary celebration, and at night the boys
“got of'n the train with eleven second-
hand machines, luggin’ ‘em home.”
tA Clearspring bargain?"
“Cat's paw, no! Clearspring root
beer and elder! If the boys badn't
‘drunk more than they orter, the ma-
chine feller wouldn't have bumboozied
‘m”
“It wasn't a creditable affair, was
ier
“Law, we women most had keniption
fits. Susanna Simplton summoned a
meeting of the ‘Ladies? Grill”
“The ‘Ladies’ Grill?”
“Yes, It's Miss Simplton’s society.
Onur platform is, “Bolling men tn cal-
rons, grilling them on gridirons!"”
“What did the society do?’
“We voted to hold a crusade against
men folks’ folly and graphophones.
Miss Simpiton has leisure, so we chose
her chairman of an investigating com-
mittee.”
“So Miss Simplton led the Cru-
sade?”
“She's leading it; you can Join us,
Ruth.”
“I prefer to be neutral,” I demurred.
“I don't s'pose it's any of your
funeral, but come along with me to
the meeting.”
Oddly exhilarated, I got my hat.
We found Miss Stmplton speaking.
“In order to be a success,” she was
advising, “the roasting process must
be commenced at home. I'm sorry I
have nothing to report on except a
Thomas cat; therefore I will give .my
time over to the home report of Mrs.
Danie! Doolittle.”
Aunt Hepsy’s sides shook with
laughter, but the big woman got her-
self to her feet.
“I can say that our hired man Amos
was the only Jack-of-apes who got a
spavined machine at our house. When
Amos saw it was unwelcome, he said
he'd lug it off; but I compromised that
he'd Keep it and have it to play on,
provided he exchange his dancin’
tunes for pious music. Ladies of the
Grif, with my advice, Amos has al-
ready chosen his hymns.”
Aunt Hepsy's report was accepted
and Miss Simplton challenged Nancy
Ann Shooster.
“I Mt on my brother Seth hot and
heavy for getting buncoed,” blustered
Nancy. “But Seth's perverse; he
asked how much money the Grill would
‘set for reparations, and sald he'd pass
his hat around among the men, and
collect the same.
“Then the day I went to Clearspring
to get my spring bonnet, Seth and
Amos got thelr stupid hends together.
‘They ferreted out grandfather's old
dress sults and stove-pipe hats; with
my flower-pot paint they painted a
sign-board: ‘Contribute to the Grill’;
with the sign-board and a grapho
phone they toured the town hurdy:
gurdy style, Ladies, had I been at
home, Seth Shooster should never have
gone, never!”
“How much money did they collect?”
piped Susanna,
“Ninety-nine eents; Seth says when
he collect trother eent he's going to
Dr. Parks to get a bateh of belladonna
“pills; he thinks if we live on our plat:
‘form we'll need ‘em.”
| A flutter stirred the Grill room.
Some one shrilled that Nancy Ann's
“report could not be accepted. Susanna
“was voted in as Seth's regenerator.
| ‘The other nine reports were ac
cepted, the miscreants being willing to
make amends without ado.
Having disposed of the reports, the
Grill members, im unison, repeated
‘thelr slogan: “Boiling men in caldrons,
grilling them on gridiron.” ‘Ther
each member repeated a quotation
satirical, tronical or fiery, and the
meeting adjourned,
‘That evening I overheard Seth and
‘Amos talking {a the kitchen.
“Aunt Hepsy's net so bad,” uttered
Amos.
“It’s nip an’ tuck with Nancy Ann
and me,” confided Seth. “All fs, Amos,
you and mel have to streak it like
wild men every time Susanna comes
our way.”
Soon the skirmishers grew war
weary and peace settled on Warring:

WEAR THE MASK OF WORRY
Charge That Both American Men and
Women Have Strained Expres.
sion Ie Denied.
‘The American people are described
as wearing the mask of worry. Ob-
servers speak of the strained expres.
sion seen not only on the faces of
those who ride abroad in motor cars,
but also in evidence among family
parties sitting on lawn or porch far
removed from danger from the wildest
of Joy-riders.
Tt is said that the mask of the
strained expression {s robbing Amer
tean women of thelr beauty. They are
described as lacking the serenity and
the repose of manner that should add
to thelr charms, and as calling atten-
tion to that deficiency as they look
upon the world with an expression
more likely to arouse pity than ad-
mtration.
But {s all this true? asks a writer.
Here 1s a question giving opportunity
for cultivation of habits of observa-
tion. Watch the men and women you
meet on the street. So doing you may
run the risk of fastening on your own
countenance the mask of the strained
expression, but you may find that on
the countenances of at least a fair
proportion of those whem you pase by
the way there is evidence of happl
ness and satisfaction, After all, are
not some of those who are disturbed
by their discovery of the strained ex-
pression In need of new glasses? Is
not what they look upem as evidence
of worry and nervous strain rather tn-
dication of alert and healthy interest
in life?
Go and observe for yourself. Yeu
may then form a reasonably accu
rate opinion as to what extent life in
the land where the living {s the easiest
and best ts being marred by wndus
anxiety and needless \fear. But take
care {n your investigations that your
‘own outlook {s sufficiently intent te
‘enable you to dodge the faces of your
fellow creatures, Better the strained
expression amid the exeitements of
the street than semi-eonsclous placidity
in the seclusion of the ambulance and
the hospital.—Boston Transcript.

Second Annual Exhibition to Be Best Ever Say Promoters
Entire Building of Union Hall to Be Used in Putting on Great Business Festival.
The committee of promotion of the St. Paul Negro Business league is daily inaugurating new features for the coming exposition to be held at Union hall three nights, November 22, 23, 24. All phases point to the fact that this year's exposition will far exceed the one given last year. It cannot be denied that the first exposition was the greatest ever witnessed in the Twin Cities. In securing the entire building the committee feel that adequate space is now available to house all exhibitors and the large crowds that will attend. A more elaborate presentation is assured on account of the many applications received for space.
Second Annual Event.
November 22, 23 and 24 will mark the second annual exhibition to be given by the local business men. Their enthusiasm has received much stimulus owing to the success of the previous one. The Style Show promises to be one
VICTIM OF AMES GOPHER
GAME DIES FROM HURT
(Continued from page 1)
East Tech, where the former gained a big reputation as an athlete in the four years he played. Willaman regarded him as the best lineman he had ever coached, the strongest man on the Ames line this year, and "one of the greatest athletes he ever saw." Trice, who was 21 years old, was married at Cleveland last summer. His wife is in Des Moines.
Spaulding Lauds Dead Player.
When "Bill" Spaulding, Minnesota's coach, heard of Trice's death, he said: "I guess he went down fighting, didn't he? And he didn't quit. He was a real football player, a hard hitter, but a clean player, and a thorough sportsman. Our boys commented after the game on his clean and hard play. He was in every play that came near him, and more than once he brought our boys to a dead stop. He was a credit to the game." F. W. Luehring, director of athletics at the university, sent a message to Coach Samuel Wilson at Ames, expressing his regret at Trice's death.

of the noteworthy features. Milady's garments for all occasions will be on display and the models are already making preparations to give a real Style Show under the direction of one of our best modiste. To see this one feature of the exposition is well worth the price of admission charged by the committee. The ladies say they will outdo the men and the men say not so. The competition will be interesting.
Public Support Urged.
Why not let every enthustic racperson in the city boost for the Business league and help make the exhibition a success. Much time and every energy is being spent by these men to put over something bigger and better this year than before. Encouraging these men by taking space and attending the exposition will be of material benefits in causing them to each year put on a better event. This means much to the race, so why not co-operate with the Negro Business league for success. For space call Dr. John R. French, chairman of the committee on promotion. BOOST for the Exposition, November 22, 23 and 24.
Apoplexy Takes Minneapolis Man
Apoplexy Takes Minneapolis Man
Returning home from the Curtis hotel, where he was employed, and complaining of a severe headache, Mr. Cooper Lewis, 3432 Oakland avenue, was stricken with apoplexy which resulted in his death Saturday at 9 o'clock.
His many friends in the Twin Cities were shocked to hear of his sudden demise as he was only ill a short time. For the past thirty-six years Mr. Lewis had resided in Minneapolis and had acquired a large circle of friends. For a number of years he was employed at the West hotel, one of the oldest hostelries in Minneapolis.
He was a charter member of Ames Lodge 106 and also a member of Knights of Pythias.
Surviving him are a devoted widow, daughter, Mrs. Adah Lewis Gibbs, and a little granddaughter.
The funeral was held on Wednesday afternoon from St. Peter's A. M. e. church. Rev. Boyd officiated.

georgette accordeon pleated and trimmed in silver. She carried an arm bouquet of golden and orchid pom poms. The little flower girl, Miss Alleen Hilly, preceded the bride, in a dainty frock of accordeon pleated mauve georgette and wearing a bandeau of silver in her hair. She carried a French bouquet tied with streamers of tulle.
A picture of loveliness was the bride in a handsome creation of white charmeuse satin gracefully draped with lace at one side. Her veil of tulle in Normandie fashion fell in folds over the shimmering satin and formed a court train.
Beautiful Color Scheme.
Before an improvised altar arranged in the parlor amid a superb setting of golden cathedral candles and yellow and white chrysanthemums, stately pedestal baskets the bride was met by the groom and his best man, Dr. Ahrue Feamon of Chicago, Ill. Kneeling on a pillow of white satin, exchanging the vows of the Episcopalian service read by Father C. H. Lealtad of St. Phillip's Episcopal church.
Following the ceremony Mrs. James also sang "Because," after which the wedding party held an informal reception and the newlyweds were showered with congratulations.
Mrs. Adams, mother of the bride, wore a gown of black charmeuse satin and georgette with a corsage bouquet. Miss Vivian Harsh of Chicago, sister of the groom, was attired in American Beauty panne velvet.
To Live in Chicago.
Mrs. Harsh has resided in St. Paul all of her life and was one of the most popular girls of this city. After her graduation she taught in the public schools and spent her vacations in Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, St. Louis, Mo., and Los Angeles. The groom is the only son of Mrs. Harsh and is engaged in the realty business. At 11:15 the same evening Mr. and Mrs. Harsh, accompanied by Miss Vivian Harsh and Dr. Feamon, left for Chicago, where they will spend a few days before leaving on their honeymoon. The bride wore a traveling costume of gray with hat and shoes to match. Mr. and Mrs. Harsh received many magnificent and costly presents attesting their popularity.
Federal Courts to Pass on Value Of Amendments
Walton Cohen Heads List With Large Donation to Keep Finance Case in Supreme Court.
(By the Associated Negro Press)
New Orleans, La., Oct. 13.—The Federal courts will soon pass on the question as to the disfranchisement of Negroes in the South whereby thousands of taxpayers are deprived of the right of franchise solely on account of their color. It has been a notorious fact throughout the entire South that Negroes have been denied the right to hold office in the gift of the people, and that they have been denied the right to register or vote, though the state accepts poll taxes from all who will pay. The late President Harding appointed Walter Cohen, a Negro, to the important position as comptroller of the port of New Orleans over several white opponents, recognizing the colored man as a representative of his race. Citizens of New Orleans, as a whole, or the newspapers in this section, did not object to any great extent, the opposition has been filed in Washington by citizens outside the city in the up-state districts who still retain the opinions held by their fathers of over half a century ago. Lately the New Orleans States, a representative daily newspaper, recognizing the rights of the colored man is running a series of paid advertisements which shows the exact status of the Negro in the South, as regards taxation — without representation — his business qualifications and the progress made by the race as a whole in the South, and particularly New Orleans. With this as a basis to work on, members of the Republican state central committee met in this city last week and formulated plans for Negro representation in the state, and a demand that the Constitution of the United States supercede that of the state of Louisiana, which denies the right of franchise to practically one-third of the population of the state. The meeting was largely attended by white citizens and a fund has been started to take the question to the highest court in the land. Walter Cohen headed the list to raise money to carry the proposition to the United States Supreme Court with $250, which was speedily followed by white citizens who recognize the rights of the colored man in the South. The state primaries of the Republican party will be held January 15, at which time it is expected that several colored men will be placed on the ticket, to represent the many thousands of Negro voters in the state.
At the present time thousands of aliens, mostly Italians, who in many instances cannot speak the language of the country, much less pay taxes, are being naturalized with the intention of voting them at the coming state and presidential elections.
'COLOR LINE' HITS SNAG
(Continued from page 1) sands of dollars annually at Bannon's and have for years. The filsy albi that "waitresses refuse to serve persons of color" becomes more weak when it is well known that others of our group were gladly sold valuable articles ranging from fifty dollars and up. If this be true in the cafeteria, why wasn't it adopted in the general store.
Minnesota has never failed to let itself be known as a state of fairness and the BANNON STORE is to be dealt with by the N. A. A. C. P. Much has been spent in this offending store, so we can readily see how our dollars were appreciated.
Kalamazoo Fighter Is Knocked Down Five Times in Opening Session.
New York, Oct. 13.—Harry Wills, Negro heavyweight of New York, knocked out Homer Smith of Kalamazoo, Mich., in the second round of a 15-round match in the Queensborough stadium, Long Island. Smith was knocked down five times in the first round, but did not appear to have been hurt by the body punches of the Negro as he went to his corner. In the second round Smith went down once without being hit, but jumped to his feet when the referee started after him. Wills then clipped him in the body with a left and he went down for a nine count. Regaining his feet, he walked into a right that sent him to his knees.
NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN
After a count of two, Smith rolled over on his back, stuck his feet in the air and was counted out.
The crowd seemed to take the match as a joke. Smith never once made an effort to hit Wills and he apparently was hurt but little when he walked from the ring.
Smith was down on his knees from a right to the body before a half of the first round had passed. He took a nine count. Twice more he was on his knees for counts of eight and was down twice for counts of one.
Smith gained a hit of fame by staying ten rounds with Luis Angel Firpo before the Argentine fought Jack Dempsey.
Smith weighed 190 pounds tonight and Wills 211.
