TOYMAKER'S WIFE SAYS MINISTER "PETTED" AND MADE LOVE TO HER. BUT MINISTER DENIES THE CHARGE
This government is based upon the fundamental idea that each man, no matter what his occupation, his race, or his religious belief, is entitled to be treated on his worth as a man, and neither favored nor discriminated against because of any accident in his position.—Theodore Roosevelt.

TOYMAKER'S WIFE SA
"PETTED" AND MA
BUT MINISTER
CHICAGO.—Rev. Carl D. Case,
pastor of the artistocratic First Baptist church, Oak Park, Chicago, will go "the full length" to disprove the charge that he "petted" or made love to Mrs. Charlotte C. Leland.
Rev. Mr. Case was made correspondent by Albert R. Leland, wealthy Oak Park toy manufacturer. Leland applied to the superior court for a divorce naming Case as correspondent.
Members of the church board of trustees said they had looked into the matter several weeks ago at the request of Leland, but said they found no evidence against the pastor.
Confession Suppressed
Leland, who is a son of Rev. H. C.
Leland, DeWitt, Ia., said he discovered
his wife's attachment for Rev. Mr.
Case in November, 1922, when she
gave him a note to deliver to the pastor,
who was ill in a hospital. Leland
said he forgot to deliver the letter,
and when he reached his office decided
to telephone the message to the hospital.
On opening the letter he found that Mrs. Leland had taken the pastor to task for failing to answer her earlier messages.
He Carried Messages
For two years, Leland said, he had been carrying messages between his wife and the pastor under the impression that the notes related to church
PHOENIX W. C. T. U. COMMENDS PAPERS FOR THEIR FAIRNESS
"Realizing the powerful influence of the press and the great opportunity its editors, reporters, and artists have to mould public opinion, the Woman's Christian Temperance Union of Phoenix wishes to heartily commend those newspapers and periodicals which have not allowed their news columns, their editorials and their cartoons to be used to promote disrespect for our Constitution and our laws; and we earnestly request all newspapers and other periodicals to join in a campaign to teach law observance and reverence for the Constitution."
With our very best wishes, I am,
Cordially yours,
MRS. F. B. STEVENS,
President.

Conspicuously marked by unique settings and decorations, the reception given by Mrs. Della King and Mrs. Paul Green, Tuesday, February 12, at the home of Mrs. Green, 1019 East Jefferson street, was one of the most elaborate social affairs of the season. Over one hundred fifty guests were invited and came to grace the affair with their presence. Mrs. I. F. Silvers and Mrs. Chas. Fish assisted in receiving, while Mrs. P. F. McCutcheon, Mrs. J. R. Jackson and Mrs. Milton Lewis assisted in serving. All the ladies were beautiful in the latest Paris creations and no amateur reporter would attempt to describe those gorgeous gowns. Suffice it to say, they were the last word in exquisiteness. Music was rendered on the Victrola and piano, and a steady stream of invited guests came from 2:30 until 10 p. m. Everything was carried out with clock-like precision, and it is the concensus of opinion that this was, in every respect, the banner social event of the season.
The educational convention held last week at the C. M. E. church was a grand affair and there was a splendid program rendered each night. The Rev. M. Thompson, pastor of this church, reports the convention a financial success, and all who attended know it was a literary treat.
Great Day March 2nd-
Special services will be held at the A. M. E. church Sunday, March 2nd, at 3 p. m., and a distinguished divine from Los Angeles, Calif., will preach. All Phoenix is invited to th
work to which Leland and his wife were deeply devoted.
Stunned by his discovery, Leland said he thought the matter over for a few days to decide on a course of action. On coming home for dinner one evening, Leland said he found his wife in tears.
"On other occasions, I found her weeping and she refused to tell me the reason," Leland said. "Again and again she refused to tell me, but I insisted.
"You are caring to much for the pastor, I told her," Leland said.
Tells of Her Love
"' Do you love him? I asked. She nodded and whispered 'You know I do. I've always loved him. I've loved him ever since Iknew him.'"
All night Leland subjected his wife to a cross-examination in the hope of getting at the true state of affairs. She hold out until dawn, he said, when she nodded "yes" to his question of whether the pastor had put his arm around her.
"Did he kiss you?' I asked," Leland told the court.
At first she refused to answer, but under pressure Leland said she answered "yes" to his question of whether Rev. Mr. Case had "petted and fondled" her.
FARMER WHIPS TO DEATH LITTLE SON SIX YEARS OLD
HANNA, Alta, Canada.—The temperament that goes with musical ability is responsible for William Hilsabook, a farmer, being in jail, accused of murdering his son, 6, with a horse-whip, and beating a daughter, 10, nearly to death.
His anger overwhelmed him when the children hid the key to his violin case.
Police said it was doubtful if the girl would recover. Hilsabook's wife telephoned for police while he lashed the children, according to peace officers.
"I must have been crazy," the farmer said when arrested. "I did not think I was hitting them hard."

The Rev. S. R. Maguinez, pastor of Tanner Chapel A. M. E. church, is quite ill this week, suffering with a severe pain in his head. He is being attended by Dr. A. A. McDonald and all that medical skill can do to bring relief is being done. It is hoped that he will soon recover.
Mock Conference On—
The great mock conference is on at the A. M. E. church and the preachers are at work in their various charges. The second Sunday in March, or to be exact, March 9th, is the date of the Annual Conference when the preachers will make their reports. All Phoenix invited to come to the A. M.

SPEAK EVIL OF NO MAN FOR ONE YEAR IS SURE CURE FOR CRITICISM
CHICAGO.—“Put down the soft pedal on life,” is the advice of Rev. S. W. Chidester, pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Waukegan. On the anniversary of his 29th year as pastor he summed up his philosophy in the following epigrams:
“Don’t use the telephone for unimportant conversations.
“Make less noise with your voice, your automobile and your movements. Practice the art of quietness and help make life more livable.
“Practice restraint, speak evil of no man for a year and you will have overcome the habit of criticism.
“Eliminate slang from your conversation; make an effort to improve your English.
BOOTLEG BOOZE TAKES ANOTHER VICTIM IN THAT DEAR OLD DIXIE
TEXARKANA, Ark.—Moses Bing will not be tried on a charge of murder in connection with the death of George Watson, a young white man, on Dec. 7. Watson is alleged to have died drinking whiskey from a jug, which it is alleged he had bought from Bing. It was suspected that the liquor contained poisonous chemicals, and some of it was sent to the state chemist at Austin for analysis. The report has been received and it was to the effect that the whiskey contained no poisonous drugs, after which the coroner entered a formal verdict that Watson died of acute alcoholism.
Late Tuesday Bing was indicted by the Bowie county grand jury on a charge of violating the state prohibition act by operating a still and selling the output.

Concert a Success—
The leap year concert given at the A. M. E. church by the Rev. Wm. Solly and Rev. C. N. Douglas, proved a great financial success. The house was filled to overflowing and several excellent literary numbers were rendered. The dramatic reading by Mrs. Hortense Lewis was a "scream," and she received an encore.

Mr. M. H. Henderson, prosperous farmer of the Glendale district, was a business visitor in Phoenix Saturday.
Red Letter Day—
Last Sunday was a red letter day at the Second Baptist church and the pastor, Rev. Burkhalter, was at his best, delivering two strong, eloquent and instructive sermons to his large congregation. Since the Rev. Dr. Burkhalter came to this church, only a short time ago, the attendance and membership have increased steadily, and today it is the leading church among our group in this city. May the good work continue and may others catch the inspiration. You are always welcome to attend services at this church.
HAMILTON FISH ASKS COOLIDGE TO PARDON MEMBERS 24HT INF.
Hamilton Fish, Representative in Congress from the State of New York, and former Major in the 15th Infantry, read a letter during his address before the Anti-Lynching Mass Meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which he had written to President Coolidge in behalf of the imprisoned colored soldiers of the 24th Infantry. The letter is as follows:
"February 9, 1924.
"My dear Mr. President:
"I am taking the liberty of writing to ask clemency for the fifty-four soldiers now confined in prison for participating in the Houston, Texas race riot in the fall of 1917."
"I served with colored troops at Spartanburg, and knew something of the difficulty of their situation in the South, the insults heaped upon them and the provocation they endured. From personal experience I know that the fault is not all on their side. I make no appeal nor hold any brief for the colored non-commissioned officers and leaders in the riot, nineteen of whom have been executed, but have not the others who participated in the riot without premeditation been sufficiently punished? I would be a derelict to the memory of the colored soldiers who served in my outfit who paid the supreme sacrifice on the field of battle, if I did not raise my voice to secure justice and clemency for those members of their race who also wore the American uniform.
"In view of the recent amnesty to political prisoners who obstructed the draft, poisoned the minds of our people; made law breakers and draft dodgers out of thousands, and some of whom incited or actually participated in the blowing up of bridges, factories, etc., which sometimes resulted in the loss of lives, and generally impeded the conduct of our military operations, might not these colored soldiers also be granted clemency whose only offense was to take part in a race riot where evidence has been produced to show that a large part of the responsibility should be borne by the white civilian population?
"I am willing to ask you on the eve of Lincoln's birthday to grant clemency to these soldiers in the same kindly spirit and with the same sense of justice that Lincoln always showed in pardoning young soldiers who had been sentenced to death or to imprisonment during the Civil War.
"Trusting you will accept this letter in the spirit in which it is written, and grant clemency to these colored soldiers still in confinement.
"Respectfully yours, (Signed) "HAMILTON FISH, JR."
TRAINLOAD OF BLACKS TRANSPORTED FROM SOUTH TO ARIZONA
TRAINLOAD OF BLACKS TRANSPORTED FROM SOUTH TO ARIZONA
WINSLOW, Ariz.—A trainload of Louisiana Negroes who were transported from that state by the Cady Lumber company, passed through Holbrook Tuesday, Feb. 12, en route to Cooley, where they will work in the lumber camps. The train which consisted of 11 cars left Louisiana Sunday morning and was handled the entire distance via the Santa Fe. The colored population in the vicinity of Cooley was increased to the extent of 500 people with the arrival of this train. The transportation of the southern Negro to this part of the country is a new venture, although it has been general in the east for the past year or so.
The Cady Lumber company, a Louisiana concern, recently bought the lumber camps at Cooley as well as those at Flagstaff.

Mary awaits the pleasure of the court.
GIRL KEPT PRISONER IN HOUSE FIVE YEARS BY AN OLD MAN OF 62
BEAR RIVER, N. S.—Bertha Potter, 22 years old, for the first time in five years has been taken outside the house in which she said she had been the prisoner of William Lent, 62 years old. Neatly dressed and apparently in good health, she said most of the time had been spent in a room with windows tightly bolted. A charge of seduction was made against Lent.
Eight years ago, Lent's wife had left him, Miss Potter, an orphan, then 14, came to live with him at his house in the center of town opposite the main hotel. After three years she disappeared from view of neighbors, but an investigation was not made until recently when the attorney general received a letter of complaint from some one in the United States whose identity was not revealed.
The informant said he had seen the girl, scantily clad, in Lent's home in 1918.
AUSTRALIAN INVENTS AUTOMATIC COTTON PICKER SAY REPORTS
MELBOURNE, Australia. — An automatic cotton picker has recently been invented in this city. The machine is portable, and it is stated that it will pick an acre of cotton in much less time and at a lower cost than it can be done by hand. The machine is 17 feet high and four feet in diameter, and consists of circular tower carrying two horizontal arms having a 35-foot spread. These arms are 8 feet wide and have a series of holes on the underside. The ripe cotton is drawn into the hollow arms by suction and is carried along the arms to central chute, where it is compressed into bales and dropped out at the rear of the machine.

Grant Pastor Vacation—
Due to the illness of the Rev. S. R. Maguinez, since his assignment to the A. M. E. church in this city, the officers of the church in a special meeting last week agreed to grant him a vacation and pledged themselves to contribute stated amounts to provide funds with which he may make the trip to Albuquerque, N. M., where he will spend some time in an effort to regain his health. At the meeting of the N. A. A. C. P., the sum of $15.00 was donated the Rev. Maguinez as a small token of the esteem in which he is held by members of this organization and to assist in defraying expenses incident to his vacation trip Rev. Maguinez and his faithful, loyal and charming young wife, who came to us only a few months ago from Albuquerque, have endeared themselves to us and we regret to see them go, still we trust their trip will prove beneficial to the pastor and that they soon will return to complete the work so nobly begun. Under the able, christian leadership of Dr. Maguinez, Tanner Chapel A. M. E. church is rapidly coming to the front, and ere long, is destined to resume her place as the leading church of Phoenix. Dr. Maguinez and wife plan to leave on or about March 2nd for Albuquerque.
N. A. A. C. P. Meeting
A meeting of the local branch N. A. A. C. P. was held Sunday afternoon, February 24, at the A. M. E. church. The subject for discussion: "Prospects for a Building and Loan Association among the Colored People of Phoenix," was opened by A. R. Smith and short talks on the subject were made by several of the members. Dr. E. E. Burkhalter, the brilliant pastor of the Second Baptist church, took an optimistic view of the matter and said that the prospects for establishing a Building and Loan Association were good, and he believed the venture possible as well as probable, and predicted that are long such an institution would be established by the progressive colored men of Phoenix. Many favored the project, but the most hopeful view was expressed by Dr. Burkhalter. At the meeting Sunday, the Association donated the sum of $15 to the Rev. S.

She was in the country, recuperating from an illness.
Eight years ago a woman known to Mrs. Clark No. 1 as Miss Elizabeth Weiss applied to her for a job as maid. Mrs. Clark said she did not like the woman's appearance and refused her.
"Miss Weiss" was Mrs. Clark No. 2 and had been for six years. But it was not until four months ago that Mrs. Clark No. 1 found out that fact. A sister of Mrs. Clark No. 2 wrote to Mrs. Clark No. 1 about her husband's state of affairs.
"Well, I begged John's second wife not to tell the police about him because I did not want to see him get into trouble," Mrs. Clark No. 1 said. "But she wanted more money than John or I could spare."
Clark told Capt. Matchett that he took a second wife because his first wife was ill and he believed it would be but a short time before she died. Clark said he spent part of the day with his second wife and the nights with his first wife.
Mrs. Clark No. 2 declared she did not know John was married until after their third child was born.

On Saturday, March Ist, there is to be a City election held
in Phoenix for the purpose of selecting a Mayor and two Com-
missioners, and it is the duty of every good citizen to come out
and vote. If you favor lower taxes and an efficient, business
administration of the affairs of the city, vote for Whitney, Jef-
ferson and Jacobs. They are in accord with the present city
management and are pledged to a further reduction of taxes
without impairment of efficiency in the business of the city.
About the other candidates, we have nothing to say, because
we know nothing of their ability to manage the affairs of this
great and growing city. Having passed through a period of
depression, incident to the slump in the price of cotton, the Salt
River Valley, Phoenix in particular, is on the eve of great pros-
perity. At this time we cannot afford to “swap horses in the
middle of the stream.” Go to the polls Saturday and cast your
vote for Phoenix and Prosperity, which are synonymous with
the present City management, represented by Whitney, Jefferson
and Jacobs.
There is an old saying about the pot should not call the ket-
tle black, or something of that nature, However that may be,
the Teapot Dome oil scandal is the point at which we are driving.
Democrats are calling Republicans crooks and grafters on account
of the connection some of the members of the G. O. P. had with
the oil interests, when to the public, from revelations being made
daily, it seems that one party is no deeper in the mire than the
other. This is a fight between—or may we say among the high-
er ups, and it does not become the proletariat to discuss it. We
will add, by way of a parting injunction, that the whole affair
is outrageous, disgusting, scandalous and unbecoming to men of
such high and noble station. Selah.
Women are entering the trades and professions and they are
working in mills and factories; on the farms, or at almost all
kinds of work, now that they have practically equal rights with
men, politically and otherwise, and they are making good. Women
insurance agents are wonderfully successful. Women real estate
agents are doing business all over the country. Women demon-
strators are opening the way for the introduction and sale of
many kinds of merchandise, and women commercial travellers
are selling their wares in every state of the Union. Women are
preaching the gospel to the heathen at home and abroad, and
why not? They are equally as well educated as men aud much
quicker to adapt themselves to any line of work.
Every man should live by the sweat of his brow. If there
be any who idle away his time it certainly should not be the
black man. If there be any among us who can afford to be idle,
who can live decently without working, who does not need to
work for his own sake, he ought to work for the race’s sake. We
are too far behind the other fellow. We must catch up and we
can do it only by work. Drawing up resolutions and writing pe-
titions and sending committees to Washington will mever do it.
Let each man push up his sleeves and go to it for all he is worth
for six days in every week with a few hours thrown in at night.
Work, work work! Save money and buy land—some country
land. Let every one get busy, keep busy for the next fifty
years. We are building a race” Get on the job with us, all*ye
sons of Ham.
Newspapers are indispensable|. No one would try to get
through this world at this late day without them. The newspa-
per is an asset to any community, to any people. The wide-
awake newspaper is the index to the life of the community in
which it is published. It informs and inspires. Hand in hand
with the school and the pulpit, it has labored to lift men. The
strong white race knows the value of the newspaper and stakes
all on it. He makes it sell his goods and his land; he uses it to
inspire his children and to direct their course in life. We have
not the vision yet but we are getting more and move of it as
the days go by, and the sooner we get it the better it will be
for us. The Negro in business must use the newspaper in the
selling of his goods and in all that he has to do as the white man
does. He must use it to inspire his children. The Negro child
must read Negro thought if it would believe in the Negro. There
should be a dependable Negro paper going into every Negro home
i the land. Let the children know that the race can produce
thought.
The world today is looking for men who are not for sale;
men who are honest, sound from center to cireumference, true to
the heart’s core; men with consciences as steady as the needle
to the pole; men who will stand for the right if the heavens tot-
ter and the earth reels; men who can tell the truth and look the
world right in the eye; men who neither brag nor run, men who
neither flag nor flinch; men who can have courage without shout-
ing about it; men in whom the courage of everlasting life runs
deep and strong; men who know their message and tell it; men
who know their place and fill it; men who know their business
and attend to it; men who are not too lazy to work, nor too
proud to be poor; men who are willing to eat what they have
paid for; men who are not ashamed to say “No” with emphasis
and who are not ashamed to say “I can’t afford it.’—Selected.
A preacher at the close of one of his sermons said: “Let all
in the house who are paying their debts stand up.” Presently
er man, woman and child with one exception, rose to their
feet.
The preacher seated them and said: “Now, every man not
paying his debts stand up.” The exception, a careworn individual,
clothed in his last summers’ suit, assumed a perpendicular posi-
tion.
“How is it, my friend,” asked the minister, “you are the
only man not able to meet his obligations?”

consolidation.)

- THE CHURCH OF TODAY {
* — |
The church of TODAY must have a definite, constructive |
program, to which it adheres, if it hopes to render a large and
helpful service. This program must consist of something more
than creeds, doctrines, types and shadows and the warning to
be good, in order to escape a hell of fire and brimstone—it must. |
in addition to the beliefs of a church or denomination, teach and |
train its constituents how to live fully, intellectually, physically, |
morally and economically, |
The church of today must. also, have a time to begin and |
a time to close its services. If this is not done, business people |
who are accustomed to a definite program, people who have their
time alloted to different duties at stated times, cannot afford to|
spend too much time in a service without a program, an aimless
service. That’s why so many people are obliged to leave our
services before benediction is said—that’s why there are only a
few people present when services close, because nobody knows
WHEN the end will come, not even the minister himself.
The day of the long-winded preacher, the howling, mourning
preacher, the “talk-too-much” preacher after his sermon, and
three and four collections church have PASSED. A new day is,
upon us. The minister, or church, that cannot adjust himself, or |
itself, to the “new order” of things may as well get out of the
line of march.—Ex. !

DIAMONDS
;. Ment and stepped out of her
| boudoir to secure her sister's opinion
| Upon the effect of her latest Parisian
| creation it 1s quite possible that In-
spector John Sweeney of Scotland
Yard would not have had the oppor-
| tunity of proving his detective genius
In a peculiarly striking manner,
| Lady Alberta was absent from her
room for less than ten minutes; but
| during that time occurred an event
| which, for several hours, threatened
| to disrupt several of the highest social
| creles tn England.
| pelt, Was, the might of the Devon bal,
held in the big old-fashioned house In
| the center of the Devon estate, As
| was only to be expected, the list of
| guests read like a section from Burke's
Peerage—a fact which made Inspector
| Sweeney's work distinctly more diffi
cult when the loss of the famous neck-
| lace of Devonshire was reported to
Scotland Yard.
| “Barty tn the evenifig Lady Alberta
| had dismissed her maid with the state-
| ment that she would complete her tol-
lette herself, but, Just as she was about
to put on her necklace—an heirloom
which had greatly increased in value
| because of its historic connections—
| she thought It would be well to secure
an unbiased opinion as to the effect
| of her gown, which had just arrived
from Paris, When she returned from
her sister’s room a few minutes later
she reached for the necklace, only’ to
Giscover that It had vanished!
Positive that she had bad it in her
hands less than ten minutes before, she
searched the room and then summoned
| her husband, whom she told of the
mysterious loss,
“There is only one thing to do,” de-
clared his lordship, after verifying his
wife's statement that the Jewels were
| missing, “and that is to notify the po-
lice.
Inspector Sweeney reached the Devon
house shortly after m{dnight, while the
ball was still in progress, and secured
the meager details of the case directly
from her ladyship.
“Did you notice any one in the hall
as you passed through on the way to
your sister's room?” Sweeney asked,
| “No one at all.”
“How long has your maid been with
you?”
“Less than two months-—but she
came well recommended.”
Finally, in spite of protests, the op-
erative from Scotland Yard gave or-
ders that no one was to leave the
| grounds of the Devon estate without
his permission, and, as the ball formed
part of a week’s festivities, It was pos-
-aible to arrange this without mention-
Ing thé reason for the request to the
guests, Armed with a list of those
present, with their servants, Sweeney
then repaired to Lady Devon's boudolr
to commence active Investigations,
| His knowledge of London society
was sufficient to inform him that at
least three of the guests, despite their
titles, might easily have been gullty of
lifting the necklace if the opportunity
had presented itself.
“The question is,” mused Sweene,
“who could have known that Lady
Devon would have been out of the
room for just those few moments? She
wasn't summoned by any message and
“It would therefore appear that- some
one was hiding in the hope that an op-
portunity would present itself. That
would seem to eliminate the guests—
but not the servants.”
Working along this line, Sweeney
made a careful examination of the
tollet articles on the dressing table
where the diamonds had been placed.
After a thorough scrutiny of the per-
fume bottles, pieces of silver and other
articles which were highly polished,
the detective made his way downstairs
‘and sent word to Lady Devon that he
would like to speak to her for a mo-
ment.
“Your ladyship,” he said, “will you
kindly press the tips of your fingers
lightly on this,” and he held out one of
the hand mirrors from the boudoir.
“No,” he added, “I'm not suspecting
you of making away with your own
@lamonds—I merely wish to discover
which finger-prints are yours.”
“Then, a moment later, “Thank you.
I thought as much.”
“Now,” he continued, “I want you to
instruct your butler—whom I under-
stand has been with you'for a number
of years—to secure the prints of all
the servants under your roof. ‘Tell him
to make any excuse for it thaf he
wants to, but I must secure a complete
collection. Kindly have them sent to
my room the first thing in the morning.
Meanwhile, don't worry. If my in-
structions are rigidly carried out, your
necklace should be discovered before
nine o'clock.”
But Sweeney underestimated by
some two hours. It was eleven o'clock
‘on the following morning before he re-
ceived the complete set of finger-
prints, and ten minutes later a pair of
handcuffs was dangling from the wrists
of William Sinclair, valet of one of the
titled cueata and as it afterwarde de
