No. 25 KENTUCKY DEMOCRATS ARE DEATHLY AFRAID OF WOMEN VOTERS (Special to the Tribune) LEXINGTON, KY., Sept. 16.—The race issue is cropping out in Kentucky politics as the fall campaign goes on. Although the league of nations and Article 10 may engage the attention of national orators and the slush fund claims put forward by Governor Cox obscure it for a time, there are evidences on the horizon in this state that the issue that may overshadow the others in prominence is the vote of the colored women. The focus of the Kentucky fight lies in the women's vote of 638,000. In most presidential elections here in former years the vote has been divided almost evenly, although usually democratic by a slight margin, except the Edwin P. Morrow, republican nominee, carried the state by 40,000 and won the governorship. Usually, however, a few thousand votes have decided the victor. The democrats realize their chances for a win here this fall can be swept aside if the republicans get much of an "edge" on the situation. Eighty thousand colored women will be added to the poll list, all of whom are certain to vote republican. The question, therefore, of how Kentucky will go, is up to the white women. Democrats say to win it will be necessary for the white women to go to the polls by telling white women that unless they vote the colored women, who are certain to be brought out by the Republicans, will express the sentiments of Kentucky womanhood. Being a "border state," Kentucky is unlike the "solid south" in respect to its Negro vote. Here it is counted and that is the factor that keeps Kentucky from being normally rock-ribbed democratic. GREAT INTEREST IS DISPLAYED IN WRESTLING MATCH GREAT INTEREST IS DISPLAYED IN WRESTLING MATCH Never in the history of the wrestling game throughout this part of the country was there such a rivalry as between the local pride, Pete Sauer, and Sam Clapham, holder of the British title, who are meeting in Tally's arena on Friday. Not only is the interest high in the Salt River valley, but newspapers and wrestling fans in other states are eagerly looking forward to the result of the clash. Clapham's determination to rub out the defeat that Sauer was lucky to get in their last encounter only tends to make the match more interesting, and there is no doubt that the Britisher will make a hard try for a win. Both men are very evenly matched in weight, but the British champion has an edge on Pete when it comes to skill and probably strength and experience. It came as a complete surprise to the wrestling fraternity of the larger cities, where Clapham is known, when Sauer was awarded a victory over him, but, owing to the serious accident which came to Clapham, the defeat has been overlooked and now fans are awaiting news to see whether Sauer is as good a man as he has been credited with. Both principles are getting into the finest possible conditions, as neither of them are going to leave any stones unturned when the gong sounds for time Friday. Sauer's friends are anticipating a hard struggle for him, but feel that the local man will defeat Clapham in straight falls. Several offers have come to the wrestlers in the way of matches and it is not likely that any chances of victory on this contest will be overlooked. HOW A MAN BECAME HIS OWN GRANDFATHER I married a widow who had a daughter; my father visited our home frequently, fell in love and married my step-daughter, thus father became my son-in-law and my step-daughter my mother, for she was my father's wife. My step-daughter had a son, he was, of course, my grand-child and my brother at the same time, because he was my father's son. My wife was my grandmother, for she was my mother's mother. I was my wife's husband and grand-child at the same time, and as the husband of a person's grandmother is his grandfather, I was my own grandfather! GIRLS LEAD ASTRAY BY THEIR MOTHERS SAYS LADY SUTTON LONDON, Sept. 13.—"The mothers of England are leading their girls astray," says Lady Bland-Sutton, wife of the prominent surgeon. Sir John Bland-Sutton, discussing what she calls the present wave of "continuous dancing, supper parties, and the wild insenate life of the country house party." "Yes, it is the mothers I blame, with their eternal dances and their skirts to their knees. It is not the middle-aged woman only in London society as well. "I know of one titled woman over sixty years of age who, in addition to spending her time at dances, has insisted on her husband, of like age, learning the newest steps in order to accompany her. "Once mothers are more careful their daughters will follow suit. Mothers do not trouble to make their homes attractive—in fact they literally have no homes at all. If instead of living a wild life of excitement they allow their children to keep open house at their homes, to have their friends in whenever they choose, the immoderate girl of today, whom men have no wish to marry, would almost disappear." OBJECT TO NEGRO BATH PAVILION ON WATER FRONT (By Associated Negro Press) St. Petersburg, Fla., Sept. 16.—When he heard that residents were preparing to file an injunction to prevent the city building the proposed bathing pavilion for Negroes on the water front, Mayor Neel A. Mitchell said that it may take two injunctions to prevent the city from building this bathing pa villion. "They have not a legal leg to stand on as the Negro bathing beach is a half mile from the nearest home and cannot injure the residents there in any way." He added, "If any one needs to take a bath after a hard day's work it is the Negro population. The Negroes heretofore have not had a bathing beach and we should provide them one." Prices of Diamonds Will Be Maintained Says Big Syndicate (Special to the Tribune) (Special to the Tribune) New York, Sept. 16.—No matter what happens to the price of shoes and ships and sealing wax, the price of diamonds is not going down. This fact was made apparent yesterday when a cablegram was received here from the Diamond Syndicate of London, which controls the output of stones, stating that its policy is to "maintain prices." The Diamond Syndicate, which holds about 90 per cent of the entire diamond output of the world, including the stones from the DeBeers Consolidated Mines, is probably the greatest and strongest trust in the world. What it says goes in the diamond industry. When demand slackens, the syndicate cuts off the supply. The cablegram was received here by the Jewelers' Circular, a trade publication, which requested a statement on the future policy of the syndicate. L. Breitmeyer, head of the syndicate, replied: "Diamond Syndicate's policy has always been to maintain prices, and there is no intention to depart there from. You may make use of this information as you think best." Nell Brinklev Weds Son of Famous Actor New York, Sept. 16.—It was learned recently that Miss Nell Brinkley, who has attained prominence as an illustrator, was married last Saturday to Bruce McRea, Jr., son of the well-known actor of the name. The wedding, which was attended by a few friends of the couple, took place in the First Presbyterian church in New Rochelle. The Rev. Thomas Guthrie Speers officiated. Mr. McRea and his bride are taking a wedding trip by automobile through New England. Their future home is to be in New Rochelle. The bridegroom, who is 22 years old, has selected the newspaper field as a career and is a reporter on the Evening Telegram. SUCCESS EDUCATION READING Writing EFFICIENT TEACHERS THE HOME BROWN JOHNSON SENTENCED TO YEAR AND DAY IN PENITENTIARY JOHNSON SENTENCED TO YEAR AND DAY IN PENITENTIARY (Special to the Tribune) Chicago, Sept. 16.—Jack Johnson, former world's heavyweight champion, was sentenced to one year and one day in Leavenworth prison and fined $1,000 by Federal Judge George M. Carpenter for violation of the Mann act. Pope Has Interceded For Mayor MacSwiney Rome, Sept. 15—The Pope has interceded in behalf of Lord Mayor MacSwiney, now in Brixton prison, London, according to the Giornale d'Italia. Commenting on the situation in Ireland and the imprisoned Mayor, the paper says: "Lord Mayor MacSwiney will be canonized in the course of centuries, when Englishmen will join in his glorification, just as recently they joined in the apotheosis of Joan of Arc." Bryan Skeptical On Cox's Dryness (Special to the Tribune) (Washington, Sept. 16—The statement by James M. Cox, Democratic nominee, in one of his western speeches, that he will not try in any way to overturn the prohibition enforcement act is met with a good deal of honest skepticism try some of his fellow Democrats, notably William J. Bryan, whose heart, soul and part of his income are wrapped up in the dry cause. Mr. Bryan, prior to the San Francisco convention, spoke feelingly on the subject of Governor Cox, branding him as altogether impossible because he was and is the "residuary legatee" of the wet candidates and interests. In his stay here for the last few days. Mr. Bryan by his thunders of silence on national politics has crystallized the impression that he has no intention of lifting a finger or even his voice to try to insure the election of Cox. Today, by answering a question with another question, the old leader of Democratic hopes spoke volumes of unbelief in the stand assumed by Gov. Cox in the west. "Gov. Cox has stated," Mr. Bryan was told, "that he is for the enforcement of prohibition and if elected will do nothing to overturn the Volstead law. What do you think of that?" "Interesting, isn't it?" said Mr. Bryan. The annual dust-fall in Glasgow Scotland, is 1,330 tons to the square mile. FOREIGNERS ARRIVE IN U.S. AT RATE OF MILLION PER YEAR (By Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Sept. 16.—Immigration figures for the month of August disclose the fact that foreigners are now coming into the United States at the rate of more than 20,000 per month, or 1,000,000 a year. This great influx is on despite the pressing conditions in Europe, where man-power is at the minimum and millions are needed to help rebuild the countries destroyed by war. Reports are also being circulated in various parts of the South to the effect that 200,000 Mexicans are to be imported into various Southern states in order to take care of the farm work and other industrial needs brought on by the marvelous influx of Negroes into Northern states Leaders, organizations and government departments having in charge the economic welfare of the country are studying with great interest the various phases of these new movements. Every encouragement is being given, it seems, to immigration despite the recent immigration law passed by Congress. Some go so far as to say that the underlying motive is to open up labor conditions in order to throw thousands of Negroes out of employment in the North so that they will return to the South. If there is any such motive, it is not believed that it will succeed, however. Careful investigation by the Associated Negro Press in every section of the North to which the race has migrated discloses the fact that more than 90 per cent of the employers are entirely satisfied with Negro labor. They give among the reasons for satisfaction the following: The colored employees are 100 per cent American; they speak our language and no interpreter is required; they do not seek to foment strife and strikes; they are hard and faithful workers, and the majority of them are saving their money and buying homes. On the other hand, it is pointed out that it is necessary for every member of the race to be on guard for his own betterment. After all, it is stated, employment is economic and not sentimental. Regardless of how sympathetic employers may be, efficiency is the watchword, and if the employees do not measure up, there is but one thing left to do, make a change. Organizations of all kinds are urged to preach this doctrine to the people and impress on them the importance of always seeking to better their condition. Extravagance and vice are frowned upon, and honest workers are urged to beware of the crafty people in the city, men and women, that ALL ROOSEVELTS EXCEPT FRANKLIN D. WORKING FOR HARDING San Francisco, Sept. 15.—Every Roosevelt in the family of the late revered colonel is in the harness actively working for Harding and Coolidge, according to an announcement from western Republican headquarters called forth by the continual use of the name by the Democrats with the inference that the vice-presidential nominee is a son of the former president. The statement says: "Who has a better right to speak, for Theodore Roosevelt in this campaign, his sons, his daughter and his sister, or the fifth cousin, Franklin D. Roosevelt, who always opposed Colonel Roosevelt, politically, when he was alive?" Captain Archie Roosevelt is the organizer of Republican clubs in the midwest region. Mrs. Nicholas Longworth, wife of the Representative in Congress and daughter of Col. Roosevelt, is campaigning Ohio for Harding. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., is on a speaking campaign through the west. The late colonel's sister. Mrs. Douglas Robinson, is busy in the New York fight. Sam McVey Refused To Continue Fight After Being Floored (Special to the Tribune) PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept 15.—The scheduled eight round bout at the Ice Palace between Harry Wills, conqueror of Fred Fulton, and Sam McVey did not try to make a contest clared no contest in the sixth round by Referee Floyd. The official claimed McVey did not try to make a contest of it. Wills' best punch was a left that lifted McVey off his feet. Wills complained to the referee about McVey's holding. Wills, who made all sorts of faces at McVey, picked up Sam and tossed him out of the ring in the second round. "That's what you get for trying to hold on to me," said Wills as McVey rolled over twice and kept right on rolling down into newspaper ally. McVey dropped all the way to the concrete floor. He was helped back into the ring and the referee asked him if he wanted to continue the fight. "Guess I got enough, boss; I hurt my leg," replied McVey. Nothing more exciting followed. Wills doing all the fighting and McVey ninety per cent, of the holding. small but insistent few who thrive and flourish by their wits and the credulity of newcomers. REDEEM LIBERTY WORTH $15,000,000 TO BONDS AT PAR, SAYS DEFEAT DEMOCRATS SENATOR HARDING SAYS JOHN WEEKS (Special to the Tribune) Marion, Ohio, Sept. 15.—"This government should make its liberty and victory bonds worth all its patriotic citizens paid in purchasing them." This is the language of Senator Harding to recent callers here. It means that Senator Harding believes the bonds the men and women and children of America bought in the war period and which have gone below 100 cents on a dollar should be brought back to 100 cents on the dollar. Of the first Liberty loan your government bought in $25,119,000 of Liberty bonds for $23,841,677.60, with a profit clip of $1,273,322.40 from the fleece of the bond buyers. Of the second Liberty loan your government bought in $371,215,000 for $353,346,965.55, with a clip of $17,868,034.45. Of the third Liberty loan your government bought in $278,635,000 for $267,661,398, with a clip of $10,973,602. Of the fourth Liberty loan your government bought in $368,115,000 for $348,513,485, with a clip of $19,501,515. In other words, your government has trimmed the purchasers of its promises to pay out exactly $49,716,473.85, which is quite a tidy sum. HARDING GRATIFIED WITH REPUBLICAN VICTORY IN MAINE HARDING GRATIFIED WITH REPUBLICAN VICTORY IN MAINE (Special to the Tribune) Marlon, Sept. 16—Senator Harding issued the following statement after he had been informed that the Maine election results indicated a sweeping victory for the Republican ticket: "The result in Maine is reassurance that the American people mean to return to representative government under the constitution through the agency of the Republican party and that Maine takes the lead in declaring for America unmortgaged to the old world but still ready to serve humanity as American conscience impels." Religious Films To Fill Church Pews, Plan of Organization (Special to the Tritune) NEW YORY, Sept. 15.—A six reel thriller of Jonah in the act of casting himself into the sea, his subsequent resuce by the kindly whale and a close up of the whale's interior, showing Jonah's deportment immediately after the providential act, may be the entertainment offered Sunday school scholars as a reason for cutting out the Sunday morning fishing and attending devotions. An organization of church and business men has been formed under the name of the International Church Film Corporation, upon the theory that the church is overlooking an excellent opportunity for instructivness and interest by neglecting the cinema. Arrangements have been made with five thousand churches for the display of films released through the corporation, including dramas which will withstand the prejudices of the most ethical, travelogues, educational films and clean comedy. The movie movement for the churches is an outgrowth, it was said yesterday, of a general church betterment movement, and is intended to boost attendance at church services. Most of the churches in which films will become a regular feature will show them on Sundays after Sunday school. These films will be of strictly religious nature. All the releases are to be supervised or written by churchmen. We can understand some of the rules of etiquette but why a man shouldn't sit comfortably at ease with his hands on the table is beyond us. And it's our observation that most of us do, rule or on rule—Detroit Free Press. Now and then you run across the queer type of man who would rather help a neighbor in misfortune than see good fortune come to him. Sunday, May 9, was celebrated in France as a "Day of Large Families." 5 Cents a Copy; $2.50 a Year New York, Sept. 16.—It would be worth at least $15,000,000 to the country to get rid of the Democratic administration in Washington, John W. Weeks, member of the Republican executive committee in charge of the national campaign, yesterday told 140 business men of New Jersey at a luncheon at the Robert Treat Hote, in Newark to discuss ways and means of raising funds in that state. "I would consider that a good investment," said the former senator from Massachusetts. He added that no one except Governor Cox had any knowledge of a fund of such magnitude. The campaign will be conducted, he said, so that the Republican administration will not be under obligations to any interest. Mr. Weeks did not approve of the national committee's plan of limiting contributions to $1,000, and said he believed the maximum should have been larger. The committee is asking $3,000,000, he said, to finance the campaign, but he called attention to the senatorial and congressional funds, for which another $700,000 is needed, and told the gathering there was no limit on the individual contributions which could be made to make certain a Republican Congress. He urged liberal contributions to both funds. James G. Blaine (3d) told of a trip made recently through the country in which he discovered that the Cox charge that the Republicans were trying to buy the presidency had proven a boomerang. Mr. Blaine said that in 1916 sixty-six persons gave 90 per cent of the fund raised in New Jersey, whereas this year 1,500 persons have sent in money. New Jersey is trying to raise $200,000. LIEUT. COL. DAVIS NOW RANKS HIGHEST AMONG OUR GROUP LIEUT. COL. DAVIS NOW RANKS HIGHEST AMONG OUR GROUP (By Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., Sept. 16.—Lieut. Col. Benjamin O. Davis, a colored citizen of the District of Columbia, holds the highest rank of any man of his race on the active list of the army of the United States. Col. Charles Young, also colored, who was graduated from the United States Military Academy, was retired several months ago on account of disability. He was the only colored man who ever reached the grade of colonel in the army. Although retired, he is still on duty as military attache at the United States legation, Monrovia, Liberia. Col Davis was born in this city, studied in the Mott school and was graduated from the colored high school. He began his military career as a first lieutenant in the United States Volunteer infantry in July, 1898, and was honorably mustered out in March, 1899. He then enlisted in the Ninth Regular Cavalry, and in two years was successively promoted to corporal and squadron sergeant-major. As a result of a competitive examination open to enlisted men, he was appointed second lieutenant, Tenth United States Cavalry, in February, 1901. Since then he has served with either the Ninth or Tenth cavalry regiments in campaigns in the Phillippines and on the Mexican border, except for a short detail as inspector general of the First Separate Battalion of the District National Guard. He reached the grade of captain in December, 1915; a temporary major in August, 1917, and a lieutenant-colonel in the national army in May, 1918. A few days ago he was appointed lieutenant-colonel of cavalry. He is now at his home at 1830 Eleventh street on leave of absence, having just returned from a tour of duty in the Philippines. He has been detailed as professor of military science and tactics at the Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, and will go there in a few days. FALSE ALARM (By Associated Negro Press) Oklahoma City, Okla., Sept. 16.—The widely circulated reports to the effect that Negroes were arming themselves preparatory to making an advance on this city were greatly exaggerated. There is little or no trouble, and there is a desire among all classes to live together in harmony. THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE Arizona's Greatest Weekly Phoenix, mo.

What we think, or what we know, or what we believe is—in the end—of little consequence. The only thing of consequence is what we do—Ruskin The picture on the front page of this issue, brings to our mind the subject of parents and teachers—their relations to each other. School days are here and parents have begun to make ready their children to enter these institutions of learning. While we are a strong believer in good schools with efficient teachers, it appears to us that there is something for the parent to do in the way of assisting the teacher. Proper home training will mean much to the child when he enters the school room and it means infinitely more to the teacher. Obedience is the first lesson any child should learn and this lesson needs to be taught at home. Many parents have absolutely no control over their children in their homes, yet they send them to school with the expectation of having the teacher train their minds and assume the responsibility of the parent by teaching them obedience. In this manner, too much responsibility is placed on the teacher and we often complain of incompetent instructors, when as a matter of fact we expect too much of them. Parents should do well their part, by giving the child the proper home training, then teachers can begin to train the mind of the child. Why some children never learn anything during a whole term, is because the teacher necessarily spends all of her time trying to instill right principles of living and teaching them the lesson of obedience; things that should have been taught at home. Having reared your child in the proper manner, and given an efficient teacher, there is every reason to believe he will show advancement. And, too, the parent should come in close contact with the teacher through the Parent-Teachers' Association. In this way they can discuss the peculiarities of the child and suggest means to remedy them. The teacher may be well versed in child psychology, but a mother, intuitively, knows more about her child than the greatest psychologist. By coming together in the parent teachers meeting, they can exchange their views regarding the child, and in this way prove helpful, one to the other. Summing up the whole situation, we say give us capable, efficient teachers for our children, but let us not neglect their home training. If there is anything that is nauseating to voters, it is the chronic office seeker. Even the president of the United States dare not announce himself a candidate for a third term. It would mean political suicide to the party that accepted such a man for its candidate. Since this is true of the presidency, why not apply the same to lesser lights. If two terms will do for the president, at least three terms should be sufficient for any elective office beneath the presidency. The American people believe the other fellow should be given a chance to show what he can do, notwithstanding the clean record of the man or set of men who for many consecutive terms has been feasting at the political pie counter. Democratic voters of this commonwealth, if you have on your ticket men whom you know to be chronic office seekers or men who have held office more than two terms, vote for the other fellow. No man should be given a monopoly on any office within the gift of the people. Keep placing him in the same office, eventually, he will feel like he owns the office and that it is your bounten duty to re-elect him. If there be any Republicans in office who have served in the same capacity for more than two consecutive terms, we would like to have their names, for they, too, will be placed on the black list along with their Democratic brethren. Whatever good a politician is gong to accomplish for his state, can be done in three terms or not at all. After three terms, he usually becomes careless, gets old on the job and does very little for his constituency. Sometimes it is not necessary to keep one in office more than a single term. Many prove their inefficiency in a short time, while others need to be given a second term. Only in extreme cases should a third term be given and by no means a longer period. No one should be elected and reelected continually because he is capable. There are others just as good, if not more efficient. Don't allow a candidate to make you believe that there is not another man in the world who can take his place and get results. Put this question to him: "Suppose death should claim you for his own. Would the country go to the dogs?" Nine times out of ten his own conscience will condemn him and he will admit that there might be a man somewhere, who could fill his place in the event of his death. The new Negro of the new day wants representation. What he means by representation is something a little higher than a janitorship. He has stood on this rung of the ladder long enough and is now ready to step up higher. He no longer will sell his vote for a mess of porridge. He has learned to play the political game for all it's worth. Instead of accepting a few dollars to jingle during the election, he works without pay and when victory is won, he asks for and expects to receive a portion of the spoils. He has watched others feasting at the political pie counter and has decided to try and secure a seat at this counter for himself. That's the way the New Negro of the new day understands the game. Is he playing it according to Hoyle? If not, will some one please set us right. The home-buying spirit is still manifesting itself among the Colored citizens of this community. Nearly all newcomers have the "Land Fever" when they arrive and lose no time in getting into a home of their own. Old-timers are contracting the disease and it's interesting to watch the race between the new-comers and old-timers. Keep up the good work, children, you are making history. Many also are beautifying their homes and making improvements on their property. This is a great step forward and we are indeed glad to see such activity among our people. Possibly it is none of our business, but in order to satisfy our curiosity bump, we rise to inquire when the ocean voyage will take place that was promised winners in the Gazette subscription contest. The Tribune wants to know how it's done. If you can promise a thing and then get away from it, we want to know how it is done. Uncle Sam compels this paper to carry out its promises in the way of awards and prizes offered solicitors. If our Uncle is partial, we want to know it. All together now: "Phoenix must and will have a Colored men's branch of the Y. M. C. A." Nothing worth while was ever accomplished without effort. Let's get busy.

PRESCOTT (By Dora Rose) Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Hines, Mother Ramsey, Mrs. K. Hines motored to Grand Canyon. They report a very pleasant trip, going on the 4th and returning on the 6th. The first night of the fair at the A. M. E. church was a wonderful success. The program was begun by a talk of the pastor, and the opening song by Mr. Jacob Tull. The next number, a solo by Mrs. Luce of Phoenix, was excellent; reading by Mrs. Dora Rose; trio by Mrs. Conners, Mr. Bell, Mr. Garnier and Master Robert Jordan, was excellent. The next number, a duet by Rev. Johnson and Rev. Boatner, and some duet we'll say it was. Mrs. Scott followed. Had there been a prize awarded for the most original entertainer, Mrs. Scott would have won it. Mr. Burkhart sang a Spanish solo which was beautiful; Mrs. Suddoth recited a piece from Paul Lawrence Dunbar which deserves special mention. Mrs. Paris Tabor sang a beautiful solo. The two beauty corners were true to their name. The decorations by Miss Nellie Jones and Miss Naomi Tabron. We are unable to say who won the prize for the most beautiful corner, but we think it will be a tie. We wish to thank those who contributed to the evening's entertainment. Miss Helen Vance left Tuesday morning for Mesa to take her position as principal of the Mesa school. Mrs. O. G. Howard left for her home in Phoenix last week. While in Prescott she took a course in millinery at Madam Hilbert's establishment, but owing to business matters was called home before she concluded her course. Although she had only been studying a short time, she had nearly finished her course, and left a number of beautiful hats to her credit. Mrs. Hilbert, who is a modiste of rare ability, says she was the fastest pupil that has ever entered the establishment, and we predict for her a glorious future as a millinist. Last Friday evening a whist party was given by Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Anderson in honor of Mr. and Mrs. O. G. Howard of Phoenix, Ariz., and Mrs. L. D. Tatamon of Beaumont, Texas, a sister of Mr. and Mrs. Anderson. Hot coffee, sandwiches, ice cream and cake were served. Mrs. Thomas King was the winner of a beautiful fruit bowl. Miss Naomi Tabron won the second prize. Everyone enjoyed themselves. Those present were: Dr. and Madam E. E. Hilbert, Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Tull, Mr. and Mrs. Thos. King, Miss Helen Vance, Miss Naomi Tabron, Mrs. Faudkerson, Mrs. Garrett, Mrs. John Suddoth, Mr. and Mrs. Bell, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Young, Mr. and Mrs. O. G. Howard, Mrs. L. D. Talamon, Mr. Clemin, little Amanda King, Laby Jenny Rose King, Marie Anderson, Mr. and Mrs. S. J. Anderson. The reception was held at 331 North Virginia street. All wished Mr. and Mrs. Howard would return soon so they could win the championship. NEEDLES, CALIF. (By Emett Lewis) Received all of my papers yesterday and sold every one the same day they were received. It seems as though all the people in town want to read the Phoenix Tribune. They say it is the best paper in the entire Southwest. I shall begin taking subscriptions at once, for every one wants his paper delivered immediately upon arrival. I will send their names and addresses to you and you can mail them out to subscribers. I am trying hard to build up a good trade here for the Tribune and have succeeded wonderfully. If my sales keep increasing as rapidly as they have the last two weeks, I soon will have to devote all of my time to the work. Just a few lines about a prize fight that took place at Oatman, Ariz. I promised the boys that I would give them a little writeup, so here goes: A tenround boxing contest was staged Sept. 6th at Oatman, Ariz., between two colored boys, Kid Icsin of Needles, Cal., and Eddie Harper of Ohio. The fight by rounds was as follows: Round One—After sparring for an opening, Harper lands a terrific blow on Icsin's eye. Harper's round. Round Two—Harper came back fresh and was smiling, but was stopped by a hard left to the head. Icsin's round. Round Three—Icsin lands a haymaker on Harper's jaw, knocking him to the floor. Harper was up in a flash and both boys were fighting like tigers. Icsin seemed to have the best of the bout throughout, landing rights and lefts on his opponent, but after ten rounds of the fastest boxing ever witnessed in this section, the refree pronounced it a draw. Would like to get in touch with some good fighters in Phoenix as I thinn I can arrange a bout here with some classy scrappers. If there are any fighters in Phoenix, and they chance to see this notice, write me at Neeleds, Cal., and I shall be pleased to enter negotiations with you.
