PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, MAL 21, 1921 Barber Shot Full of Holes by Four Police Officers Memphis, Tenn., May 19.—Cornered by four uniformed policemen who poured nine lead bullets into his body. Charlie Bolden, a Colored barber, 53 East Georgia Avenue, was killed recently at Main street and St. Paul Avenue, after Bolden had fired three times at S. G. Holland, grocery clerk, 1918 South Parkway, in an effort to murder the latter. For some seconds it seemed that the policemen, because of their own numbers, might cause serious injury to one another, so crisscross was the firing. Each policeman took deliberate aim at close range, however, and the leaden missiles found their mark with accuracy. Bolden, who operated a barber shop at $588\frac{1}{2}$ Main St. in the vicinity of the shooting, stood at bay when he realized he was trapped and attempted to discharge his heavy caliber pistol at the officers.

The sermon was logical, forceful and full of religious fervor. All present received a blessing and were glad they came. Rev. Rickman is a Gospel preacher of no mean ability, and upright christian gentleman and a conscientious church worker. There is always something going on at the A. M. E. church. Come, you are welcome.

Georgia Peonage Cases Still in the Limelight (By The Associated Negro Press) Chattahooga, Tenn., May 19.—An echo of the Georgia peonage scandal was heard here today when it became known that indictments had been returned by the United States Grand Jury against A.

Chambliss·Case Again Engages the Attention of Court Chicago, May 19.—Renewed efforts were made last Monday by the state to prevent the release of Dorsey Chambliss, former Chicago Colored policeman, from the penitentiary. Chambliss was convinced of enticing Bertha Wiebeck, 17 year old white girl, to a resort conducted by Mrs. Emma Ross, a Colored woman, and frenquenced by persons of that race. Three weeks ago attorneys for Chambliss applied for his release before Judge Harry A. Lewis in the Superior court. The application was in the form of a writ of supersedeas on the grounds that a clerical error had been made in the mittimus under which he was sent to the penitentiary. The mittimus charged Chambliss with "abducting" the girl. His lawyers claim it should have read "hartoring" and want him released because of the error. A writ of habeas corpus was first asked, but the Supreme court ruled a writ of supersedeas was the proper procedure. A continuance was asked by the attorneys for the state so they might have time to amend their pleadings. CONCERT DE GRAND TO BE HELD AT SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH, MAY 24th, 1921 Mrs. W. C.

Y., May 19.—Refusal to comply with an order to discharge its Negro employees and discontinue their employment in its offices has forced the "The World Tomorrow" to move its quarters from 118 East 28th street to 108 Lexington avenue.

In a public statement to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, of the situation the editors of "The World Tomorrow" say: "We should have refused such a demand on principle, but in addition we are proud of the fact that one of the most faithful of our office force is a Colored woman.

When the advertisement of a business firm is carried in the Tribune, it not only serves as an announcement of the special prices or the line of goods handled by that concern, but it is a Direct Invitation to members of the race to patronize the business place; further, it is assurance of fair and courteous treatment.

There is a great tendency on the part of the colored people everywhere to rally to the support of the newspapers and peri- odicals issued by the race and, there is an appreciative disposi- tion on the part of those who conduct these enterprises to give the public value received for their money. When the colored people throughout the country will see the importance of building up these institutions, a great difference will be recognized in our condition in this country. etic Lt NEWS THAT’S NEWSY Summertime is just over the fence and that is the season in which the editor of the Tribune does his best work.
