AN ADVERTISEMENT IN THE TRIBUNE IS A DIRECT PERSONAL APPEAL TO COLORED PEOPLE William T. Vernon Elevated To Bishopric By General Conference VOL. III. No. 8 UNWRITTEN LAW SAVED BLACK MAN WHO KILLED WHITE (By Associated Negro Press) Lancaster, Wis., May 19.—Jack Green, an aged colored man of this city, was acquitted by a verdict of "justifiable homicide" by a jury in the criminal court for the killing of Wm. Duncan, a wealthy white auto dealer of this city. The cause of the killing was the raping of Green's fourteen-year-old daughter by Duncan. Evidence produced at the trial which proved that Duncan had outraged the girl and then threatened her with death if she divulged the crime. The attorneys who defended the father of the girl declared that their client was justified in the killing because the civil authorities had failed to apprehend Duncan upon the charges made by Green of Duncan's continued advances toward his child. Green, they declared, had appealed to the police and to the civil powers without avail, and then, crazed by the shame, he had killed the despoiler. The jury took the view of the defendant's lawyers and acquitted Green. Bishop C. H. Phillips Unalterably Opposed To Organic Union (By Associated Negro Press) Chicago, May 20.—The three Methodist general conferences are very much in the center of the current news stage. Chicago is a big Methodist community in the sense that a large and influential number of its citizens, black and white, are Methodist in fact and spirit. This makes St. Louis, Mo.; Des Moines, Iowa, and Knoxville, Tenn., points of special interest on the map of the country. The A. M. E. conference is in session in St. Louis; the M. E. is holding forth in Des Moines, and the A. M. E. Zion is settling its matters of state in Knoxville. Each are wrestling; and, if the signs already given out are indications of the outcome of this phase of the several situations, Methodist union is about to receive another black eye. At Des Moines, they have decided to add Negro bishops to the Episcopal bench. This appears to put an end to the proposed union of the Church North and the Church South. Bishop Phillips seems to have given a knockout punch to the contemplated union between the A. M. E. Zion and the C. M. E. churches by giving life to the fear that the A. M. E. branch will eventually swallow his organization so completely that within a few years its memory will be little else than a dim tradition. OUTLAWS HAVE BEEN (By Associated Negro Press) Portau-Prince, Haiti, May 20.—American troops have succeeded in clearing the Carribean Islands of a large band of outlaws who have been preying on the islanders near Haiti for a number of years. The band numbered 75 and was under the leadership of one Charlemagne Massena Peralti, who was killed by the troops. They say the Queen of May has left her throne and gone hunting for votes.

These women are said to be natives of the cannibal islands that dot the Pacific ocean and are described as being most beautiful in form, very graceful and possess skin that is very smooth and tawny, like that of a white man who has been tanned by the sun. Arkansas Rioter Again Faces Death For Alleged Activity (By Associated Negro Press) Helena, Ark., May 20.—Alfred Banks was convicted and sentenced a second time to die last Friday for the alleged part he took in the uprising at Elaine last October. The trial of Ed Ware, another of the rioters, began last Wednesday.

TRAIN PORTER IN FLORIDA LYNCHED FOR ALLEGED IN- SULT TO WHITE WOMAN (By Associated Negro Press) Tampa, Fla., May 20.—An unidentified colored porter was taken from a northbound train on the Atlantic Coast line and lynched by a mob for an alleged insult to a young white woman passenger. A deputy who had arrested the porter was overpowered and his prisoner taken from him. FACES DEATH SECOND TIME FOR ALLEGED CRIMINAL ASSAULT Baltimore, Md., May 2.—Although stoutly declaring his innocence, Isaiah Fountain, a young colored man, was sentenced to die for an alleged criminal assault on a white girl.

WHY YOU SHOULD PAY ALL YOUR BILLS PROMPTLY (By Associated Negro Press) Birmingham, Ala., May 20,—"Why You Should Pay Your Bills Promptly" is the subject of the essay contest which has just started among the school children in this city. Money prizes amounting to $12 have been offered by the local Merchants' Credit Association. Negro and white pupils in the grammar and high schools are among the contestants. (By Associated Negro Press) Berlin, Germany, May 20.—Reports are being received from the Saar district of alleged murders and suicides as a result of criminal attacks on a large number of young German women by French Negro troops. The reports state that many working girls have disappeared, while women of other classes, preferring death to public disgrace, have committed suicide. ARIZONA'S GREATEST WEEKLY PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, MAY 22, 1920 NEW MANAGEMENT PHOENIX TRIBUNE AFTER JUNE FIRST Readers of the Phoenix Tribune will be surprised and delighted to learn that a change in the management of this paper has been made and the new owners will assume full control beginning with the first issue in June. A. R. Smith, the founder, present owner and publisher of the Tribune, is retiring from the newspaper field principally because of old age and a desire to see new, young blood injected in the work. For the past three years Smith has given all of his time, talent and means to editing and publishing this paper and has honestly and conscientiously tried to make it a success. He was a little reluctant at first about releasing his hold on his "pet," as he terms it, but when sufficient financial inducement was offered and he was given the alternative of accepting or having two stalwart, young, ambitious and thoroughly trained newspaper men enter the field as a competitor, he readily consented. The new owners have decided to change the entire policy of the Tribune, claiming that the present policy is altogether too conservative, weak and vacillating, for men of their calibre. Readers may therefore expect and be prepared to see some real spicy news in the columns of the Tribune, beginning with the first issue in June. Smith has been writing insurance as a side line and it is the general belief of all that he will now devote more, if not all, of his time to this business. He was carrying a $5,000 life insurance policy on himself and this week took out another, doubling the amount, which act now places him in the $10,000 class. No specific reason was given by him for taking this undue precaution, but it is thought that he will use this as an illustration and example in order to induce all his insurance customers to do likewise. It may be stated here, though of no particular importance, that he succeeded in showing the new owners the necessity of such policies for themselves, and is now walking around with the commission tucked away in his "jeans." Now, to introduce the owners. They are Alfred Robert Smith and Arthur Randolph Smith, twins, who arrived at the home of Editor and Mrs. Smith, 1302 East Jefferson street, on the afternoon of May 17. Mother and sons doing fine. Thank you. New subscriptions and renewals are in order. One at a time, please. VOICE OF THE PEOPLE Globe, Arizona, May 12, 1920. Editor the Tribune: Permit me to say to the Eastern Star chapters throughout the state, and especially to those working under the Texas Jurisdiction, let us not try to organize a Grand Chapter in the state at this time. I think the colored Masons did a very unwise thing to leave the Texas Jurisdiction at this time. If there be any who entertain a doubt as to the truth of this statement, I am prepared to prove the assertion. Again, I do not think the delegates or representatives from the different lodges who assisted in organizing a Grand Lodge voiced the sentiment of their home lodges. I know personally of some who were given limited power and of others who were duly instructed, but went contrary to and beyond their instructions. I do not say this to start a family feud, but I say it merely as a warning to the Sisters of the different chapters throughout the state. "Let him that standeth take heed lest he fall." Yours in the work. REV. WM. YOUNG. Box 1388, Globe, Arizona. With further increases in the cost of coal predicted for next winter, the consumer can spend the summer trying to puzzle out a way to cut down his consumption. The drop in the price of eggs brings forward the great American hen as an example of patriotic promptness in responding to the call for production. WHO WAS THE GREATER OWN YOUR OWN HOME BOOKER T. WASHINGTON CAMPAIGN STARTED OR FREDERICKDOUGLAS? AMONG FLORIDA BLACKS FLURIBUS UNUM (By Associated Negro Press) New York, N. Y., May 20.—A heated discussion has been started by H. A. Wallace in the columns of the daily as to the relative greatness of Frederick Douglas and Booker T. Washington. The colored people are being divided into Douglas and Washington camps are are waging a vigorous fight for their favorites in the voting for places in the Hall of Fame collection of great Americans. Up to the present time there is nothing to indicate that either of the great Negroes will be amqng those elected by the New York University commission. BLACK TROOPS ARE HOPE OF FRANCE SAYS NOTED WRITER BLACK TROOPS ARE HOPE OF FRANCE SAYS NOTED WRITER (By William Pickens) Africa has been the refuge for good men and good principles ever since the angel told the father and the mother to take the child and "flee into Egypt." O! Men of France! the sole security of your future is in a close and closer alliance with your blacks in Africa. It is your best hope for military prestige, and perhaps for economic existence, and possibly for life-blood itself. It is more than an accident of history that black men saved you in the dangerous day from Teutonic arrogance and barbarism. It was a dispensation of the Providence who shapes our ends. The white world is going to desert you; to be sure, you are shade of its color and flesh of its flesh, but you are not of its genius and spirit. You are the last liberal spirit left in the white world today. More than English, German or American. You still feel that you are among men in the world. The dominant feeling among most other whites is that they are men among brutes and half brutes. Your liberalism is your providential strong point and it is more than an accident that a great black people have been closely allied with your recent interests and your dest.ny. You alone among white nations seem to be near to the realization that God made the world for all men of all colors, or that he would not have made all colors of men for the world. It is true that the colored race originated civilization; that is, that they HAPPENED to be the first people civilized. But that does not give them any better title to civilization than it gives you and the German—although your ancestors and the ancestors of Kalser Wilhelm were extraordinarily late in adopting civilization. Civilization is the joint product of all the races of Afr.ca, Asia and Europe, who contributed to it. When the German was a wild thing, civilization was being nursed in Africa. A close alliance with your African blacks, mighty in their fecundity, is your one best bet for future life and power. GLOBE--MIAMI (By Mrs. Wm. Young) Sunday services at the A. M. E. church were well attended and the pastor, Rev. Rivers, preached two able sermons. Sunday was Covenant Meeting day at St. John Baptist church and all enjoyed the services. Mr. Will Campbell and Mrs. Humphrey were walking down the street in Miami one night last week, when they were accosted by the husband, Mr. Humphrey, who after a few words with them, drew his revolver and shot Mr. Campbell. His marksmanship was poor, as only a flesh wound was inflicted. Mr. Campbell will recover. St. John Baptist church plans a big rally for the first Sunday in June at their new church home. Everybody come and help us go over the top. Master J. W. Young is still whoooping with the whooping cough and it is thought that he has a slight touch of measles. Mt. View Chapter, O. E. S., is still receiving applications for membership. TRIBUNE (By Associated Negro Press) Jacksonville, Fla., May 20.—A "Own Your Own Home" campaign has been started among the colored people in this city, with the result that hundreds of colored people are engaged in an active campaign to increase the number of property holders among them. Georgia Governor Appoints Black Men On Important Committee (By Associated Negro Press) Atlanta, Ga., May 20.—Governor Dorsey has appointed twenty white and five colored delegates to represent the state at the National Conference on Education to be held in Washington, D. C., next week. The colored delegates are H. A. Hunt of Ft. Valley; J. A. Martin, Macon; Rev, W. E. Farmer, Ft. Valley; R. R. Wright, Savannah, and J. W. Holley, of Albany. WAITERS AND COOKS' STRIKE IN CHICAGO SERIOUS; COLOR- ED BOYS BEING CONSIDERED (By Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., May 20.—The strike of waiters and cooks in the big hotels in this city has again raised the question of the availability of colored men to fill these positions. A makeshift has been devised by Tracy Drake of the Congress Hotel, who is at present employing girl waiters to take the place of the strikers. The hotel proprietors are giving serious consideration to the matter of using colored men, but as yet have come to do definite conclusion on regarding the question. (By Archie Lewis) Sunday, May 9, was Mother's Day and marked the close of the big rally at the People's A. M. E. Zion church. Rev. Conquest preached a splendid sermon in the morning and two new members were added to the church. Rev. Sanders, of the white Methodist church, preached for us at the afternoon services, and Rev. Conquest again occupied the pulpit at night. More than $350 was raised in the rally, $300 of the amount was paid on the church, leaving a neat little sum in the church treasury. The white people of the Methodist church have donated 50 hymn books, which we appreciate very much. The pastor, Rev. W. J. Conquest, turned in $182.50 which he had solicited from friends. Many others turned in larger amounts. The pastor, officers and members wish to thank all who assisted us in this rally. Mrs. Burkes of Hayden, was a Ray visitor last Sunday. Mr. L. C. Reese, formerly owner of the Orange Blossom Cafe, left this week for Phoenix. He stated that his stay in Phoenix would be indefinite, depending on the decision reached in regard to several excellent offers he has from men in that section. Mr. J. A. Lewis left Tuesday for Superior, where he has a plastering contract. Messrs. Crump, McDonald and Smith motored to Superior last Sunday to witness the ball game between Ray and Superior. The local team lost the score being 4 to 5 in favor of Superior. A boxer from the coast will arrive in camp on the 20th to begin training for a bout with Rufus Williams. He is the boy they have brought here to "whip" Rufus. Well, we shall see what we shall see. The infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Smith has been very ill, suffering with inflamation of the stomach. The company physician has been in constant attendance and the little fellow is improving. Mrs. Jerry Hinton and Mrs. Archie Lewis and family arrived safely in Los Angeles. The humble potato now rules as the Mighty Spud. Owing to the shortage in paper, it would be appropriate to resume the use of leather in the soles and heels of shoes. (By Associated Negro Press) Columbus, Ohio, May 19.—There was formally opened in this city one of the prettiest and most thoroughly modern hospitals, built and owned and conducted by colored professional men in the country. Being the first hospital of its kind to be built and conducted by colored men in Ohio, the very appropriate name of Alpha Hospital has been given the institution. The hospital was conceived, built and equipped by Dr. M. A. Method, surgeon and physician and graduate of the medical department of the Ohio State University, and Dr. R. M. Tribbett, surgeon dentist, graduate of Howard University. Both of these men, although enjoying a wonderful practice in their particular lines, felt the need of a hospital wherein colored physicians might operate—might have an opportunity to realize the dream of every medical man—become a specialist. Alpha Hospital contains rooms for eighteen beds, in addition to operating room, X-ray outfit, all necessary rooms requisite for a modern hospital. Its staff will comprise a number of the best known colored and white medical experts in the city. The location is ideal, being easily accessible to every part of the city. California Fish Market Will Move June 1st To Its New Location Edward F. and Leo J. Weliak, proprietors of the California Fish and Poultry Market, 121 North First avenue, have leased the building formerly occupied by Durant Brothers' ice cream factory, and will move into their new home on or about June 1st. The new location is only a few doors north of their present home, and they desire this information given to all their friends and customers in order that there may be no misunderstanding as to the new home of the California Fish and Poultry Market. OBJECTS TO NEW HISTORY BECAUSE "HIGHLY SOCIALISTIC" (By Associated Negro Press) Atlanta, Ga., May 20—Gen. N. B. Forrest, a son of "Fort Pillow General Forrest, is making a vigorous effort to have barred from the public schools of this city "The History of the American People," published by Beard & Bagley, because it is "highly socialistic in nature, treats unfairly the Negro question, is repugnant to the people of the south, is not in accord with historical facts and magnifies heroes of the northern armies." General Forrest has declared that although he has made Atlanta his permanent home, he will keep his children out of school before he will allow them to be taught from the Baird and Bagley history. CANDIDATES FOR BISHOPRIC (By Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., May 20—There are four candidates for Negro bishops being urged for places on the Episcopal bench: Dr. Jones, of the North Carolina Conference; Dr. John W. E. Bowen of Atlanta, Ga.; Dr. William H. Brooks, of New York city, and Dr. C. A. Tindley, of Philadelphia. There are two to be elected. (By Associated Negro Press) Castleberry, Ala., May 20.—A week's search has been going on in the Murder Swamp for two young colored boys, sons of William Whittle, a prominent colored man of this city, for the killing of C. M. Saren, a white taxicab driver. Two other brothers are in the custody of the authorities as accomplices. Some exporters are buying back goods sold to Europe a year ago because they can get higher prices here. Does this classify us as prize easy marks? The world war did not give King George of England any chance to be a hero or achieve greatness, but he has revived the side crease on trousers. 5 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year Conference VERNON MADE BISHOP AT GENERAL CONFERENCE AFRICAN M. E. CHURCH (Special to the Tribune) St. Louis, Mo., May 20.—The General Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church has elected the following persons as bishops of that denomination and they were consecrated before a congregation of ten thousand people in the Colliseum here Sunday: Dr. W. D. Johnson, of Georgia; Dr. A. J. Carey, of Chicago; Dr. W. S. Broos, of Baltimore; Dr. W. T. Vernon, of Memphis; Dr. W. A. Fountain, of Atlanta.

Wright; financial secretary, John R. Hawkins; secretary of education, A. S. Jackson; secretary of missions, Rev. F. T. Ranken; secretary of church extension, B. T. Watson; editor A. M. E.

Bundy and was addressed by Bishop Vernon, Bishop J. H. Jones and Attorney W. C. Hueston. Bishop Parks presided a fund of $1,500 was raised to assist carrying Dr. Bundy's case to Supreme Court. Prominent Texan To Deliver Commencement Address at High School Commencement exercises of the colored High school will be held Friday evening, May 28, at the Auditorium, Prof. Wm. Coleman, noted educator of El Paso, Texas, and grand lecturer of Free and Accepted Masons for Texas and Jurisdiction, will deliver the commencement address. Principal Jensen will introduce the speaker. Preceding the introduction of the speaker will be a chorus by the students and an essay by the graduate, Miss Annie Vivian Strawhorn. All Phoenix is expected to be present on this occasion and help make it a grand affair. The teacher, Mrs. A. C. Caldwell, has worked without ceasing throughout the school year, and your presence Friday night at the high school Auditorium will greatly encourage, not only the teacher, but scholars as well. Prof. Coleman, the principal speaker of the evening, needs but little introduction to the citizens of Phoenix, for as grand lecturer of Texas Masons he has made several visits to the lodge in this city and is well and favorably known in fraternal circles. He is an eloquent, forceful speaker and possesses that oratorical excellence which enables him to sway his audience at will. Everybody invited. No charge for admission. Mr. Advertiser The Tribune is read by practically every Colored family in Phoenix, Mesa, Chandler, and Tempe. It also has a wide circulation throughout the State of Arizona as well as in New Mexico, southwest Texas and other states. Do You Want This Trade?

The nominations for the office are to be made in June. Politics saturates the air at this time from one end of the country to the other. The office of "Chief Executive" is the greatest in the gift of the nation, and has international aspects of the most far-reaching kind. The people of our group, from one end of the country to the other, are much concerned about the personality of the individual who is to be elected by convention for the office. The Republican party, having enjoyed the advantage of our support for so many years, is naturally being carefully watched, and the leaders and candidates are being scrutinized as never before. It is no far-fetched statement to declare that at this time, as important as may be party loyalty, political principle means more than anything else. It is highly essential that all political maneuvering and strategy, leading to the "consummation devoutly to be wished," must bear this fact in mind. The action of "Lily White" Democrats posing as "dyed in the wool" Republicans in the South, in states where contests have been brought about, has stirred the thoughtful people everywhere, and the sentiment of the entire Race is expressed by Robert R. Church when he declares that the Republican party is put to the acid test, and will rise or fall by its Chicago decisions and declarations. The new thought and the new attitude of the new Negro must be recognized. It is neither a theory nor a dream, but a practical reality. The new Negro everywhere is resolved to live or die now and forever on the principles of eternal justice. He is not unreasonable in his demands, does not expect miracles to be performed; but he does expect a "show down"; and though he "walks through the valley of the shadow of death," fears no evil. He figures, and rightly, that "Decision Day" has come. WHAT THE SALVATION ARMY OFFERS ARIZONA The sum requested of the public for the service of the Salvation Army embraces provision for rescue and maternity home work, its industrial home activities, the relief work of corps in Douglas and Phoenix, its bureau of missing persons, its anti-suicide bureau, its boarding homes for young women, its hotels for men, its free employment bureaus, its work among service men, its industrial home and farm for boys and girls; in fact, all its sixteen major activities and many of its minor activities. The Salvation Army service is limited only by its personnel and the financial aid given to its enterprises for the unfortunate of our fellow men and women. In order to amplify its organization and make more readily available its facilities, county advisory boards composed of our leading citizens in Arizona have been formed in every populous county. A state advisory board was called into being to present the matter to all of our citizens. Delegates from county advisory boards met recently in Phoenix, and, after careful scrutiny of past service rendered, of Salvation Army needs for the year, and of each item of the budget for $30,000 asked of Arizona, rendered its unqualified approval of the Home Service Program for 1920. In exchange for this small sum Arizona receives a national service based upon forty years actual experience in the United States; a service which unqualifiedly merits the approval and full financial support of every one of us. Red-blooded Americans who have for five years faithfully toiled and faithfully supported in a financial way the aims and aspirations and the unfortunates of other nations will scarcely look upon the appeal of the Salvation Army to help our own as one which may in any way, with honor, be disregarded. Another increase in the price of haircuts threatens. A baldheaded man isn't soaked in such an instance on account of a scarcity. The allies are considering more drastic peace measures in Turkey, but it looks not a little as if they have already overdone it. Some of the soviet ark's passengers are reported suffering in Russia. Perhaps the Bolsheviks have put them to work—no work, no eat. Just as Spain is getting ready to order a few thousand portable houses from America, this country discovers that it can comfortably use them itself. Ice prices will remain stationary after the latest increase, dealers say, whereas most of us hoped they might melt a little.

Perhaps the increase in the price of white collars will mean the inauguration of a delightfully new style of decollete for men. Porto Rico does not know what is going on in this country, says the navy, urging a wireless station as a cure for unrest. Why not one to Villa also? Along about 1970 those American trees now being planted on French battlefields will come in handy to shore up dugouts. 6 BLOOMSBURY MUSEUM OF ART AND CULTURE THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING CURRENT AND OTHERWISE (By Associated Negro Press) In a letter to Senator Beverdy Johnson, dated April 14, 1865, ex President Millard Fillmore expresses a profound apprehension that a dreadful "race problem" was pending. "What is to be done with the 4,000,000 of ignorant, helpless blacks?" he asked. "I suppose a large portion of them are wholly incapable of providing for themselves, and too indolent, without compulsion to make the effort. Are they to fill our poor houses as paupers or our penitentiaries as criminals?" All of which goes to show that Mr. Fillmore was woefully ignorant of the African's character even as a slave. But aside from that fact his letter proves that he was almost criminally ignorant of the impelling economic forces which had been at work —in the person of the slave—making it possible for the American experiment to get on its social and economic feet. It is true that a considerable number among us are too lazy to work; and it is also true that too many of us help fill the penitentiaries. But the general charge that we are indolent and criminal is stated without a due regard for the very important economic, social and industrial parts we have played in the life of the republic. Any how, we can console ourselves with the fact that ignorance knows no color and apparently, has a rather deep rooted contempt for races. The Wood Box, a trade journal published in Chicago, in a recent editorial on the shortage of labor, presents the following remedy: "Better team work is essential today. Americans and immigrants should learn to pull together for the benefit of all. Being an American, I say, "Amen." I suspect, however, that I had better make the announcement in a whisper, the Wood Box, may not have any kind of an American in mind when it calls for "team work." A colored man of Forsyth, Ga., has invented a trap which successfully catches the boll weevil. This is a splendid achievement. Now, if he will turn his inventive genius to the production of a contrivance that will paintfully entrap the lynching weevil. I imagine I could be happy for ten consecutive minutes. The worm is beginning to turn. The Negroes of Arkansas have nominated one of their number for governor. But the most stupendously criminal feature of their actions lies in the fact that they nominated their man because they resented the treatment they had received at the hands of white men. Truly this is a wonderful world we live in. Pretty soon, if we don't watch out, the Negro will be strutting up and down the highways filled with the notion that he knows what it is to be respectable. Then look out! He will be nominating men for the presidency. It has been discovered in Alabama that the colored farmers are discontinuing the old-time practice of knocking off work every Saturday to "go to town." By some uncanny means the colored man and brother has made the discovery that laying off on Saturdays doesn't pay in these times. Therefore he is working on Saturdays, saving his money, sending his children to school with some of the savings, and taking a more general interest than was his wont in other times to the part he is to play in the saving of the world for democracy. In the classic language of the late lamented Billy Kersand, "We is growin' mo' lak white folks ev' y day." The Chicago Tribune recalls that in May, 1918, a ghastly crime was committed by Negro soldiers at Camp Grant against a white woman. All too true. But why "white?" Why not WOMAN? I am calling attention to this contemptible piece of narrow pettiness on the part of the world's greatest, because "WOMAN" is the question at issue and not "white or black" anything. Rape is a horrible crime whether it is committed by a white or black fiend. Death is none too good for this class of criminal. American WOMANHOOD without regard to race, creed or color is the sacred object that must be preserved at all hazards. I make no argument that the soldiers who were declared guilty of a heinous crime by a jury of their peers should not meet with the death penalty. I simply call to the notice of any who are to listen that a woman is a woman whether she be white or black. For a "great newspaper" the Chicago Tribune certainly does some very small things. Back up your university diploma with common sense instead of common conceit. Your country needs you. Some stones of life should not only be screened, they should be covered. The days are longer, yet the years measure the same. DOUGLAS Mr. John January and Mrs. Carrie Jackson were quietly married last Tuesday evening at the home of the groom, 982 Seventeenth street. Mr. J. Hamilton was best man and Mrs. D. L. Pierce bridesmaid. Rev. Maguinez was the officiating clergyman. Mrs. A. F. Anglin of Austin, Texas, is here visiting her aunt, Mrs. J. Kimble, 613 Green street. Sergeant Corbett of Fort Huachuca, was a visitor in the city this week. School has closed and there are many idle girls and boys on the streets. Wouldn't be a bad idea to employ them to clean up that back yard. Mr. Norman Rice and Miss Ida Coleman were happily married last Saturday evening at the home of Rev. Maguinez, 833 Sixteenth street. Miss Coleman formerly was teacher in the public school here. We congratulate the groom on his splendid selection of a wife. The ceremony was solemnized by Dr. Maguinez and the young people will reside in Douglas. A jolly crowd went out for a picnic last Sunday. Dr. J. W. Bryant gave the picnic for the school children. Everyone reports a jolly good time. Speed Ball Hayden and Kid Palmer (white), fought ten rounds at the Majestic theater last Saturday night. Speed Ball, reputed welterweight champion of the southwest, either was afraid of the white lad or didn't care to retain the championship. The contest was slow and lacked interest. At the end of ten rounds the referee raised Kid Palmer's hand as the new welterweight champion of the southwest. Speed Ball should change his name for he showed anything but speed in the contest Saturday night. Mrs. Florence Andrews is on the sick list this week. Mrs. Roberts served a delightful chicken dinner at her home last Sunday. Those present were Mr. and King, Mr. Caldwell, Mrs. Sarah Jefferson, Master Andrew King, Jr., and Andrew King, Sr., and Rev. Major Jones. It is indeed gratifying to know that we are about to secure the services of Professor H. L. Billings of St. Louis, as principal of our school for next year. Now that Miss Coleman has married, we need an assistant teacher. Whom shall we have? Let's ask the Phoenix Tribune to find one for us as it goes everywhere and brings quick results. Mrs. J. E. Mallory is confined to her home as a result of having all of her teeth extracted. As soon as her gums heal she will greet everyone with a golden smile, but at present she not only keeps her mouth closed, but her door as well, and has removed the mat from her door steps which read, "welcome." PASADENA, CALIF (By Mrs. Hattie L. Collins) Mrs. Penelope Prince departed this life May 14th and the funeral was held Monday afternoon from the Friendship Baptist church.

PAGE THREE ale d to End, icks' --- PRICE REDUCTION STARTED IN EAST HAS HIT PHOENIX PRICE REDUCTION STARTED IN EAST HAS HIT PHOENIX Cut of 20 Per Cent in Silks and Cotton Goods and 25 in Ladies Ready-to-Wear Is Announced by Korrick. Falling in with the movement which started in the east and is gradually spreading across the country to the west, Charles Korrick & Brother announced this week that a 20 per cent reduction would be made, beginning Friday of this week, of all goods in their store. On silks, ladies' ready-to-wear garments and millinery there will be a reduction of 25 per cent. In these latter named goods there has been a slight fall in the market price, and especially in the prices of silks, which have broken badly, owing to the failure of the speculators who have held them to maintain their corner any longer because of the action of the federal reserve bank in refusing to rediscount the loans that were made on these accumulations of silk. But the market for cotton goods is as firm as ever, and will probably be higher on account of the shortage of cotton, which is rising in price, as the cotton growers of this valley are aware. Yet Korricks' will apply the 20 per cent cut to cotton goods as well as to everything else in stock. Mr. Korrick, speaking this week of this reduction, said that it was not made to promote a sale, but he believed that it was the duty of all merchants to co-operate in the general movement to reduce the cost of living by offering a part of their profits as a sacrifice. 1 Notice STOMERS:— that on June 1, the California move into the building former- room Factory, on North First --- T ib LTD { { CLASSIFIED | ' NG } ; CE RS Baie: 14 Genta por word per toeue | No ads accepted for less than 25c | } Read for proft.

By that time his beard would be suffi ciently long to be shaped into a Van- dyke. Also, for he practiced the most rigorous frugality, he expected to have thirty dollars with which to buy some Dresentable clothes. From that point on he felt positive that somehow his Soaring aloft would be swift and sure. Only once was the monotony of that month broken. By one of those anomalous conditions peculiar to some cities, the street the restaurant was on, a miserable, poverty-stricken thor oughfare, ts less thin ten minutes’ walk from Chicago's wealthiest resi- dential section. ‘This incongruous jux- tuposition secounted for the break in Fitzugh’s routine, It was late one warm night in June, and he hag walked « few streets from his hoard- ing house and was taking the air along the Lake Shore drive, when he saw Kathleen Otis, A shining limousine stopped before the iron gateway through which he had twiee passed, and as he drew back Into the shadows of some shrubbery she alighted with her father. How exquisite she was— how desirable! . . . Every night after that Fitzhugh promenaded the drive. But he never saw her again, He read later that she had sailed for France with her mother and would not return until the au- tumn, CHAPTER VI. take in adopting such slow means to an eagerly desired end, when, in tie Qfth week, something occurred that dispeHed his growing pessimism, It was q warm Saturday night, and when he came from the broiling kitchen with his coat under his arm, dripping with perspiration, his em- ployer met him and handed him eight dollars, five of which he promptly placed between the leaves of his sav- ings bankbook, which now showed a bulance of twenty dollars, As he nodded good-night to his em- ployer he noti@ed a hatehet-faced man In a checker-board suit on one of rhe lunch-counter stools, Before Fitzhwih renched Van Buren street this men confronted him and, smiling as cor- dially as his hard face would permit, asked: “How much does the Greck pay you?” “According to my desert, my solicit- ous friend. I draw the munificent sal- ary of eight dollars each week.” The questioner pushed back his hat and chewed his cigar. And his head bobbed up aud down as he seanned the dishwasher from top to toe. “f s'pase you'll do.” he finally de- Wed. “Come ‘long to the next block. Got some'iu’ I want to show you.” He led the way up State street. and near Jackson boulevard stopped be- fore a gold-and-white restaurant, giit- tering with electric lights, brand new and spick and span, Across the plate- glass window in letters three feet high was the name, “Max's.” “See that? That's me. I'm Max.” He tapped his chest proudly. “You've got to make that name famous, Un- derstand me? Famous! Come! Come ‘ong inside and I'll tell you all ‘bout it” They went in, and Mr, Max outlined his plan. Briefly, it was this: Fitz- hugh, after a visit to a barber, was to apparel himself in distinguished garb, and with an aristocratic demeanor, was to promenade State street for five hours daily. Painted in white letters on the back of his frock-coat would be the name “MAX'S.” “Um-hum,.” — observed Fitzhugh, drawing refiectively on his cigar. “How much do I get for this?” “Well, let me see—say fifteen a week. How's that strike you?” “Not favorably. Make it thirty and the deal’s closed.” And even as he spoke Fitzhugh was wondering if his beard sufficiently disguised him. He decided it did, Besides, there were the theatrical possibilities of the thing, and this appealed strongly to his love for make-believe. After some further bargaining it was agreed he was to receive twenty dollars the first week and, if employed longer, thirty dollars each for all subsequent weeks, He reported for work Monday morn- ing. Accompanied by Max, he weut to a barber's shop and afterward to a clothing establishment where ready- made apparel of the better class was sold. About eleven o'clock he stepped from the restaurant, paused in the ves- tibule, took a pair of new chamois gloves from a pocket and began draw- ing them on, When he stepped out into the morning crowd and strolled up State street, swinging a gold- headed cane, his glistening hat tower- ing high above the mass of heads, he started a furore far greater than his sanguine employer expected. When he reached Adams street there was in his wake a jostling num- ber of more curious ones, anxious to, keep him in sight, yet loath to betray their eagerness. He stopped at the corner, mounted a metal refuse box near the curb and, removing his silk hat with a sweeping gesture, shielded his eyes with his hand and stared ‘straight into the zenith.

What's the fizure, Fitzhugh?” “Oh, somewhere between eighteen and twenty thousand, I belfeve.” “Suppose I sell twenty September for you, then? It’s hardly worth the bother, of course: but I'l attend to ev- erything for you,” Fitzhugh took out his wallet and began counting checks and currency into his companion’s hand. While his lips were speaking the denominations ‘on the checks and bank notes his mind was doing a different notation: “Twenty thousand bushels at ninety- eight and a quarter cents a bushel— nineteen thousand, six hundred and fifty dollars—two thousand five hun- dred cash fron? Quigg—total winnings, eighteen thousand—total due Quigg, eleven thousand five hundred—total capital on hand, twenty thousand, six hundred and fifty dollars, “There you are, Hunt—nineteen thousand, six hundred and fifty dol- Jars.” CHAPTER VII, Two days had passed before Fitz hugh and Quigg met again, Late in the evening Fitzhugh, immaculately dressed, entered the private office of Quigg, who was alone and in a black mood. The fraudulent speculator swung round in his chair as Fitzhugh entered, growled a sullen “Hello!” and after a momentary silence growled an unpleasant “Well?” Fitzhugh sat down and fanned him- self leisurely with his Panama hat, “It bids fair to be a warm day,” he observed. “You know what TI want," snarled Quigg, rapping his desk with his Knuckles, “Where’s my money?” “Oh"—Fitzhugh stopped fanning, put down his hat—"you mean the po- ker money?" “What about It? Where is it? What have you done with it?” “Naturally, Quigg, I played poker with it.” “And you doubled St too! The grafter leaned suddenly forward aud pointed one of his short fingers in Fitzhugt’s face. But if this maneuver was calculated to frighten or confuse its mission failed. Fitzhugh smiled easily. “I more than doubled it. I more than tripled it, I won elgliteen thousand dollars.” Quigg Jotted a few figures on a cal- endar pad’ and held out his hand, “There's eleven thousand five hundred coming to me. I'll take it now.” Fitzhugh shook bjs head smilingly. “I'm sorry,” said he; “but 'm afraid You'll do no such thing.” “What d'you mean?” Quigg half rose from his chair, his putty eyes Diinking rapidly. “You've got this money, haven't you?" “Got it!” Fitzhugh laughed. “Why, Zs I gs Hee ae oy f Hi WY am Sd 19 D WA \ Bs!

You're lying to me!” Fitzinigh's breath whistled through his nostrils. He stood up quickly. His face was very white. For te first time he seemed in deadly earnest. “Don't talk too much,” he advised quietly. “There are some things I won't stand, and if you ager me I'm Hable to make that fat head of yours look like a pun puddiug. ‘The mon- ey’s tied up in speculation, if you want, to know. You have the choice of two things: you can either take an equal chance with me in the speculation, or you can take my note for what I owe you. Which do you want?” “Neither!” exploded Quigg. “I wouldn't give a cent for any spectla- tion you'd make, or for your note either, ‘There's only one thing to do with you. You've played me a dirty, low-down trick, and I'm coming back the best way I can, You're going to work for me two months longer, and you're going to work for nothing.

What does this sandwich- man stunt bring you in?” “Such impertinence, Quigg, merits a reprimiand, but I'l give you a truthful answer: thirty dollars a week, Com mencing next week.” Mr. Quigg placed his glass on the table with elaborate precision. His puffy eyes narrowed, “Pitz,” said he, “I'm going to take a chance. I've watched you twice tod:y, and I think I've found the man I want. I'm no bad judge of a man, either.” He produced a fat morocco wallet and Slipped therefrom a treasury note which he passed across the table. “fhere’s your first week's salary in ad- vance. When you're ready for work 1 am.” Fitzhugh glanced at the bill, and saw it was of a hundred-dollar denom- ination. He rested both arms on the table and, leaning across, looked his vis-a-vis steadily in the eye. “Would you mind telling me,” he in- quired pointedly, “what sort of a game you're playing?” Quigg ebuckled and raised a fat, gioved band in protest. “I beg to be excused until I've seen my attorney.
