East Liverpool Residents May Have to Go to Wellsville to Get Hair Cut
EAST LIVERPOOL, O., Aug. 2—Race prejudice reared, her head again here last week, when the only Barber Shop in which race men could gung up a sign reading as follows: "We cater to the white race only."
Six colored shops refuse to serve members of their race, and a protest by fifty citizens has been written, urging that some action be taken in order that they will not have to go to Wellsville, a distance of four miles, to get a shave or a hair cut.
Georgia Tries To Stem Tide Of Migration
Bill Would Make Encouragement of Migration Felony. With Seven-Year Penalty.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2—Negro migration from the South to the North and the West is gaining rather than shackening in pace. Georgia continues to be the centre of the movement. A Government bulletin issues three months ago announced 32,000 farm laborers had left. Georgia for the North within twelve months.
This report did not tell half. A survey completed by the Georgetown Bankers' Association shows that during the first six months of this year, 77,000 Negroes left Georgia and that a total of 225,003 have migrated from the State within the first three and a half years.
Advices from Chicago say figures gathered by T. Arnold Hill, executive secretary of the Urban League show that from 500 to 600 Southern Negroes daily are pouring into Philadelphia, Chicago, New York, Pittsburgh, Detroit and one or two other industrial centres. In most of the Southern States, there still is a disposition to place most of the blame for the exodus on the paid labor agents from the North.
It has been charged many of the migrants who left Georgia did so because notice signed by the Ku Klux Klan to quit the State within thirty days had been mailed to their cabin door.
An investigation in Georgia has shown that within three or four days after these signs were posted, labor agents from the North arrived with a plentiful supply of money and have "assisted" the migrants in "feeding the wrath of the Ku Klux Klan."
Georgia legislators assert the notices have been the work of the labor agents and not of the Klan. This (Continued on Page 12. Col. 3.)
Klan Enjoined By
New York Justice
ALBANY, Aug. 2-The first legal step to force the Klu Klux Klan into the open was taken here to-day when Supreme Court Justice Harold J. Hinman granted a temporary injunction restraining the Klan and its sister organization, the Kamelia, from exercising any of the rights of a corporation under the incorporation papers they filed recently with the Secretary of State.
President Of School Files Grave Charges
N. H. McGhee Charges "Bishop Made "False and Scandalous Statements." Affairs of School Aired.
JACKSON, Miss., Aug. 2. — The affairs of Campbell College, this city, one of the largest educational institutions in the state, were plunged into litigation Friday when N. H. McGhee, president of the college, applied to the Hinds County Chancery Court for an injunction restraining Bishop W. W. Beckett, of the African Methodist Episcopal church, resident of New York, from interfering with the management or attempting to usurp the duties of the board of trustees. Files $10,000 Suit McGhee also institutes a libel suit against Beckett, asking $10,000 damages for alleged "false, scandalous, malicious and defamatory statements" made about him by Beckett. Accompanying the libel suit is a copy of a letter said to have been written by Beckett to McGhee demanding that he vacate the premises of the college by June 15 and threatening to have him arrested, trespassing in event of failure to do so.
Campbell churches govern a benevolent African electe by the curious African Methodist Episcopal churches of the state. Bishop Beckett, although a resident of New York, is in charge of the Eighth Episcopal district.
Hoosier Capitol To Be Invaded by Shrine Hordes
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Aug. 2.—This city, located in the heart of the Hoosier State and the point from which all affairs of the state are handled, will open wide its official doors in a spirit of hospitality for the twenty-fourth annual session of the Imperial Council of the A. E. A. O. Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, and the fourteenth annual session Grand Court, Daughters of Isis, August 7, and 9.
From August 5, when the churches will combine in holding religious services, until August 9, when the sessions will come to a glorious end with a big athletic event. Indianapolis will be beckoned in a picturesque scheme which will give the city a holiday attire.
Make Great Preparations
The executive committee of Persian Temple, namely Clarence W. Baxter, general chairman; Dr. Samner A. Sarinis, vice chairman; Clarence Stewart, general secretary; Daniel W. Jones, assistant secretary; and Clarence E. Dunlap, general treasurer, are making extensive preparations for the entertainment of the Shriners.
Competitive Drills
One of the outstanding features of the sessions will be the competitive drills between the different companies in the order. But Shriners are regretting the fact that Capt. Samuel E. Gray's "World Battles," said to be one of the best drilller organizations in the order, will not be in the drill.

Government To Reveal Hand In Hospital Case
WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 2
Director Hines of the Veterans' Bureau announced here last week that she was preparing to order a number of colored physicians to duty at the Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee and that his complete list for a race personnel was about ready.
Some of them will be in Tuskegee in the near future, he said, and that the committee of whites will not be consulted.

Whitfield Unmoved in Court As Former Sweetheart Tells Details of Flight — Has $110,000. He Says.
BULLETIN
CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 2.—Outstanding features of the trial of J. L. Whitfield here Tuesday, was the evidence of numerous witnesses who saw the famous "Blue Jordan" and others who claimed to have heard noises recensible revolver shots coming from the car.
These witnesses aided the state and helped weave the chain of circumstantial evidence, by which the prosecution hopes to gain a conviction.
Marie Price, former sweetheart, who turned against Whitfield Monday, collapsed on the stand Tuesday after a severe cross-examination.
CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 2.—Tales of secreted wealth, influential friends of former days, and a pin prick code by which he keeps in constant communication with his wife, who has disappeared, were told by John Leonard Whitfield to his jailers Sunday night as the prisoner nervously paced the confines of his cell, restless and unable to sleep.
Whitfield spent the early part of the night industriously writing Letters and a six-page statement proclaiming his faith that Mrs. Whitfield with remain loyal to him in his troubles were inscribed before he prepared to retire. To Deputy Sheriff Miller, stunned guard at his court, he proclaimed his unease and inability to sleep, partly due, he said, to nerve-wracking shrieks that had been previously from the psychopathic warrior. After hearing himself on his car, several Hines Whitfield rose and walked the street, the while he engaged 15 guards in conversational grievances and hitherto unidentified chanters of his past were aired in the revelations, according to Miller. Has $110,000, is Claim "People think I have no money." Miller says Whitfield told him, "but just the same I saved $110,000 during the war and I still have every cent of it. I owned six trucks that were on the go night and day, and they made me a tidy sum."

White Man Convicted In Southern Court
SELMA, Ala., Aug. 2—A striking case of "justice" was tendered here by a local court last week, when Samuel Campbell, a white man, was convicted of assault and battery on James Fullen and fined $100. Campbell shot and seriously wounded Fuller several months ago following an argument.
"INTIMACIES" WITH OTHER WOMEN CAUSE OF TRAGEDY, BELIEF
"Love-Harem" and Midnight Drinking Parties, Disclosed By Husband Who Talked in Sleep, Goaded Mate to Commit Crime.
(Special to The Pittsburgh Courier)
YOUNGSTOWN, O., Aug. 2.—Gay escapades with single girls, regular patrons of this city's hidden "night life," in which a "love-harem" and wild moonlight "moonshine" parties vied for leading roles—the alleged unfaithfulness and mistreatment of a husband, who had fallen a victim to the butterfly whims of twentieth century vampires, and had goaded his "old-fashioned" wife to despair bordering on madness—these are some of the sensational highlights which may be exposed as a sequel to the shooting of Joseph Caldwell by his wife, Mrs. Jessica, Caldwell, early Monday morning.
A woman with a wounded arm, wrapped her husband in their home, the woman, alleged, calmly awaited the arrival of police officials and gave herself up, stating that she could no longer endure the mistreatment and deception of her mate.
Tells of Tragic Events
Restlessly pacing her cell behind the stony walls of the prison, while her husband, whom she declares killed her love through his treatment of her, battles for his life in Elizabeth hospital, with a bullet wound in his body, the woman, aged beyond her years because of the bride through which she had undergone, told a story which touched the hearts of even the most hardened of her listeners.
According to Mrs. Caldwell's story, it is alleged, her husband, always a lover of good times, married her several years ago. For a time, she is alleged to have said, their married life was ideally happy. Then old acquaintances of her husband started coming around again, with the result that he soon started going about with the old crowd. Mrs. Caldwell refused to enter into the spirit of the various "parties," it is alleged, and the general impression was given out that she was "old fashioned."
Gradually her husband stopped carrying her arm and to the "parties," she is claimed to have told. Instead he went out by himself, and according to his wife's alleged statement, oftimes came in early in the morning in an intoxicated condition. While Mrs. Caldwell realized that she was in which her husband trained was considered fast, she had no intimation that he was breaking his marriage vows, until she was forced to hear disconnected sentences of obliged intimations with other girls in a "hurem," spoken of by her husband, while sleeping off the effects of his "parties." In these maudlin monologues, the (continued on Page 12, Col. 4.)
Burned at Stake By Bloodthirsty Mob
YAZOO CITY, Mo. Aug. 2—William Minifield was burgled alive at the stake in a swamp 'hear here at 11 d'clock Saturday morning by a mob, which accused him of attacking a white woman 20 miles south of here late Friday night. No definite description of the man was given by the woman and identification was uncertain. The man protested his innocence to the last.
Pastor Stabbed By White Boy in Church
TROY, Ala., Aug. 2—Three white boys, invited into a local church, are being held to await the outcome of the injuries of Rev. Cicero Jones. The youths, after accepting the invitation, began smoking cigarettes, talking and ridiculing the services. The pastor is said to have remon- started with them, when one of the boys is alleged to have stabbed him with a knife five times. He is not expected to live.
Man Who Tried To Attack Wife
Details Come to Light As Man, in Jail, Tells Mate She Has "Nothing More" to Fear.
STARKVILLE, Miss., Aug. 2—"I just killed a white man because he tried to violate the sanctity of my home."
This alleged statement, told to a neighbor on the night of July 21, by Walter Hughes will probably mark the defense in one of the most unusual cases of the "unwritten law" in the history of the state.
Hughes is now under arrest and his pretty wife is being held as a material witness. When first arrest-
Hughes steadfastly denied that he knew nothing about the killing, but no true story was overheard by a detective, when Hughes told his wife locked in an adjoining cell, about the killing.
"He won't bother you any more, Belle," the husband is alleged to have said to his wife, during the course of their conversation.
Refused To Tell Wife
Mrs. Hughes told her husband of the unwelcome attentions of W. C. Lunceford, a brakeman, and expressed the opinion at the time that she feared he would attempt to make an attack on her soon, it is alleged. The husband said nothing at the time, it is claimed, and when he left the house, he told his wife that he was going away with his employer and would not return until late.
In the meantime, he went, to the home of a neighbor, borrowed his pistol, concealed himself near one of the coaches and waited until the man appeared. Then he accosted him, and warned him against his unwelcome attentions to his wife Lunceford, according to Hughes' story, tried to attack him, and was shot down.
Location for Band Concerts Changed
The Band Concerts, which have been given under the auspices of the Urban League at Central Park, will be changed to the premises of the Warren A. M. E. Church, according to an announcement just received. The next band concert will be held on the church premises, corner Francis street and Center avenue, Thursday evening, Aug. 9. Harry G. Washington has been appointed supervisor, and, the programme which will be rendered by Harry C. Waters' Band will be a combination of old-time "folk songs," with patriotic renditions. Many of the songs will be sung by the assemblage. Twenty-five thousand people have attended the first two concerts.

THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK
Now that the two leading Republican factions have selected candidates to be presented to the people at the September primaries, it is but fair to the Courier readers that they be given a general review of the whole situation, as it appears to us.
First of all, The Courier takes no part in factional politics. The unnecessary humiliation given all Negroes at Harrisburg four years ago taught us what it means to be factional, and then to be humiliated by factional leaders. The Courier is for "MEN AND MEASURES" within the Republican party, regardless of factional alliances. At the proper time, The Courier will announce the winning ticket as it has done for the past 10 years.
Leslie ranks. Oliver now claims him, and Magee is perfectly willing for Oliver to have him.
For register of wills, David B. Johns, a Magee man all his life. A close personal friend of Magee. Oliver has nothing to do with this man.
For prothonotary, John Voghi, a "regular organization" man, and is claimed by the Leslie organization. Oliver has nothing to do with this man.
For recorder of deeds, Harry W. McIntosh, a lawyer, a Magee man. Magee slated this man several years ago, but allowed some friends to talk him out of supporting him. Magee is now squaring his conscience, and is listening to his own mind. Oliver has nothing to do with McIntosh.
There are two factions, at least on paper, in Allegheny County. They are known as the Magee-Oliver-Flinn faction, and the Leslie faction. A better name for the latter faction would be the "regular Republican organization," headed by Senator M. G. Leslie.
The Magee-Oliver-Flinn faction is bitterly opposed to the Leslie faction and through the newspapers belonging to Mr. Oliver, all kinds of derogatory statements are made against Mr. Leslie as a man, with the hope that his organization will be placed in bad repute before the people.
This bitter feeling, purely for political reasons, is the cause of the two tickets which will be placed before the people in September. The Magee-Oliver-Flinn ticket is supposed to represent the selections of the three leaders for whom their ticket, or faction, is named. The name as applied to the ticket is a misner. The ticket is a Magee ticket, nothing more or less. The faction may be Magee-Oliver-Flinn, but the ticket is Magee from top to bottom.
Let us review the ticket:
For district attorney, Richard W. Martin, a Magee man, now holding a job under Major Magee. Oliver has nothing to do with this man.
For county commissioner, Addison C. Gumbert, a Magee man all his life. Oliver never did claim Mr. Gumbert. The other man, Mr. Cain, is a former Leslie man who left the

For county treasurer, Capt. Samuel D. Foster, a John Bell man, and Mr. Bell is closer to Magee and Leslie than he is to Oliver. Oliver gets nothing here.
For county controller, John P. Meore, an orphan since Alex Moore and the Pittsburgh Leader went to Spain. Oliver has nothing here.
The judges of the two courts will be slated by Mr. Magee, although Mr. Oliver thinks opposition will be given Judge Harry H. Rowand. Magee is regular, and he will not oppose a judge who has been regularly named by the governor through the regular channels of the party. This is our guess. Oliver gets nothing here.
Of all the names on the Magee-Oliver-Flinn ticket, Mr. Oliver does not have a single man of his own selection. Mr. Flinn has no one he can call his own. The whole ticket is a Magee ticket, picked by Magee, to suit Magee, but to be supported by Oliver and his newspapers, and some of Mr. Flinn's money, maybe.
Mr. Magee has "put it over" the untutored Mr. Olive

THE PASSING SHOW By W. L. PORTER
Along Wylie Avenue
Say, WYLIE AVENUE and the attention of the nation is centered upon Pittsburgh, Pa., city where mammoth geysers of black smoke, as if from some magic caldron, rise to kiss the hill-tops of the Allegheny, and hurrying-scurrying mortals rush to and fro to keep pace with the passing times.
ALONG WYLIE AVENUE, we see shipwrecked souls — caught in the spinning wheels of modern industry—wander idly up and down during their moments of leisure. Some fairly clad, others in blue denim over-alls and shoes without sox—offering a striking contrast to the well dressed business man who passes hurriedly on:
Pawnshops, displaying second-hand clothes, six-inch blade pocket knives, dice, cards, dangerous looking automatic pistols and revolvers. Walking weiner wurst vendors, Hebrew rag buyers, twenty-five cent hair cuts, racing taxis, playful denizens, regular saloons and flat-footed policemen.
A derelic—drink-crazed—is lifted from the gutter and left sitting upon the curb. Across the street is the "holy-bunch," shouting the path to salvation. Loud-mouth passers give a curious look-on, that is not what they're looking for, so they keep moving.
A little way further up the street a crowd has gathered. Anxious men, women and children make a mad rush to see what has happened.
"Open up here!" shouts a ruff voice in a tone of authority.
The crowd turns and makes room for the sergeant of the "wrecking-crew" and the five other officers following close at his heels.
"Scatter out!" one of them commands.
"Jer never see a man shot before?"

C. M. Shoaf Announces Candidacy for Clerk Of Courts Position
Charles M. Shoaf
Charles M. Shoaf, Burgess of West Elizabeth Borough, has announced his candidacy for the office of Clerk of Courts of Allegheny County. Mr. Shoaf is at the present time Chief Clerk of the court Department of the office he seeks. Mr. Shoaf was born in West Elizabeth in 1872 and has lived there continuously. He is a son of the late Capt. J. M. Shoaf, a veteran of the Civil War and a pioneer settler in Allegheny County. The chief Mr. Shoaf was Justice of the Peace in West Elizabeth for thirty-six years and at his death the people of that Borough elected his son to succeed him and have continued to elect him to fill the office up to the present time.
In May 1909 Mr. Shoaf was appointed to a clerkship in the office of the Clerk of Courts and in 1916 was promoted to the Office of Chief Clerk of the Court Department, where he has made an enviable record and has gained the confidence of the lawyers and the Judges, because of his intricate knowledge of the law governing the procedure of the Criminal Courts.
Mr. Shoaf is married and lives in West Elizabeth with his wife and family—his wife before her marriage with Miss Margaret Neish of Duquemce. He is the father of seven children.
Mr. Shoaf's Statement
"If elected I promise to conduct the Office of Clerk of Courts in an efficient and courteous manner Loyalty and service to the public shall be the watchword of every employee. It is the ambition of every man who serves in Office, in whatever place he seeks promotion, and I believe that my experience in the Office will be of value to the citizens of the County if they see fit to elevate me to the place at the head of the office. I can assure the people of Allegheny County, if elected, that the Office will be run by me. I will be the president and that my first thought will be to advance the interests of the citizens of the County."
Mr. Shafq stated in announcing his candidacy "This is the first time that I have ever come before the voters of Allegheny County seeking an elective Office".

The Call of the Hour
In the East
I expect much good to come from the deliberations of the National Political Convention which assembled in Atlantic City. The gathering was in keeping with its first label, "The Call of the Hour." Though it was designated by some as a populist movement, more exact description of the actions of that body would be portrayed in these worlds a genuine independent progressive race conference. The colored leaders of New Jersey are to be congratulated in the initiation of such a forward step. Never in the political history of this generation have so many men and women paid their own way from fourteen different parties, each with a different purpose of devising definite and constructive plans for the salvation of more than 12,000,000 land, but sadly mistreat- ed American citizens.
The old-timers and "fixers" were conspicuous by their absence. New faces as well as a wholesome, untrammeled spirit of freedom and unselfishness was manifested in the speeches, and the Welton Johnson was there; he who made the Republican party show its hand for the first time in fifty years in such a way as to convince the masses of colored voters of its perfidy and lack of courage among its leaders in defense to say that the fall of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Dr. P. L Hawkins, Atlantic City, one of the few colored members of a municipal school board, was in the foreground fighting for 100 per cent citizenship rights for colorful people in the city for men and measures in the interest of the race, regardless of all party considerations.
Mrs. Ida Brown, a woman always heading constructive movements for the race, was there quietly directing the several women delegates. Mrs. Florence Randolph, Mrs. M. E. Burrell and other prominent women were equally active with the many outstanding men from fourteen states when she was elected. If not read the resolution adopted by this convention, do not go to sleep until you read it, and ponder over these words that will be the introduction to all future records in the histories of the black Americans' progress in these United States:
"We urge that colored citizens in the States where they vote and where their votes are counted organize themselves into political groups who in casting their votes will hold the interest of the race PARM MOUNT to any party organization."
No Wonder Colored People Voted for Democrats in Maryland
When a former Democratic senator prevails on his colleagues in the State administration to save the lives of thousands of colored people in the old ex-slab State of Maryland, you are not surprised when you learn that he is voting for one party, regardless of other considerations have been enthusiastically ignored by the colored citizens of good old Maryland, where the people follow fearless leaders like Carl Murphy.

William McCard, Thomas Smith, Revs. George F. Bragg, Jr., Gaines and Atty. W. T. McGuinn, who though he went down in a colored Dromedar hideslide, arose last week in the National Political Conference to shout, "Yes, 'the Republican party is the ship; all else in the sea,' but my friends, the ship is on fire."
The most recent occasion for rejoicing is the announcement of former Senator John Walter Smith, that the first unit of the new $1,000,000 tuberculosis sanitarium for the thousands of suffering and afflicted disease has been completed; and to the entire populations hearty Senator Sam Foster, that he will favor a colored personnel at this institution located high on one of old Maryland's tallest hills, where the patients will always breathe the purest and most invigorating air. We do not mind taking our hats off to men whose hearts go out to suffering humanity regardless of the color of their skin. We are glad former U. S. District Attorney Samuel K. Dennis on the board of directors of this institution.
If the leaders of the Democratic party in the United States continue their work in Maryland, in first backing a $1,000,000 high school, now a special $1,000,000 tuberculosis hospital, not only will more colored people vote the Democratic ticket, but more colored people will be glad to work with hearts and hands to help our great Southland and instead of passing laws to stop migration, our southern friends could hear the men in the early morning and their day's tasks, just as this writer has heard them every morning in Baltimore for the last two weeks. Maryland is succeeding in her honest endeavors to make the State a better place to live.

August 30, 1923. Chicago will hold its first National Colored Democratic Convention, the call issued by Maj. A. E. Patterson, assistant corporation counsel of the "Windy City," states that the meeting will be open to all American citizens who believe in voting for the best men and measures, holding the race's interest above all party consideration.
intend the forensic colonel, too, issues a callion call in characteristic fashion for a meeting of the "colored leaders" to be held in Bob's private suite at the Vincennes Hotel helffold close doors, as usual. The pub will re-collaborate with the republican party will plan some means of making the once "dumb slaves of the Abraham Lincoln abracadabra believe President Warren G. Harding is our most recent Moses and "friend" and as such should be our candidate for re-election. Chicago does not care to lead the colored people back into the Republican party, her sympathy lies in another direction, as Mayor William E. Dewar and Major Adam E. Patterson can emphatically testify. Consequently all hall the coming colored Democratic National Convention.

That smell put, of pretty bickering child stop, it only intakes strife and the other of the other. It is not true among the order. This is not true, it creates dissension in our hands. We should struggle to, unify our brotherhood and the other by increasing branding each other as good as possible. We can be more than good to do this; we have been strong and, if that is, it is foolishness, such as we have been the same as to the other. We should be more than good to discuss and there will be no telling where it will stop. So I think, Brothers Scott and Bates are the only people in the life of the man of the true life. For how in the name of heaven house divided against itself and the two. This is the same thing that draws such a long tenor? I think it is a common result when we learn to forget and forgive. Both have become a been right in the life of the world, and should have as good as possible positions, as good as we have for them. For the other, as good. Seem�y and a premier in the life of the world, and a better, in the life of the world, as though he might have been a good. That and should be again attempted. But, and should be again attempted, the trend Logic and should be the real. For we should not forget that all the other things are the same way of praise, and the one can be said of Armond and the one to be made in the central part of the world. Now, brothers, let us stop and think—wonder whether this brother has been a child. If I think it is the唯一 point of the world—if the process of the whole event out one against the whole world, it is the most clear to drop out and be build our beloved order, had been something in the name of the saying need of today, that is the same way that the old son could be a回归 brother Elks. It would have been a common table to both I have been a common table to both I. I think this is the most previously written in the world—it is the name, a National home. One is the other, blind, crippled or old. The best thing is the most important is to build order, so where the world today is the same way as the world of the world with the same whysurplus and the same mbers why should we be the home?

Arrest Woman As 'Petting Ring' Lure
Youthful Chicago Wives Are Her Principal Accusers.
Pretty Brides Tell of Promised Good Times With "Nice, Wealthy Men"
Investigation is expected to reveal to Chicago's police a series of luxurious north side apartments most of them in the cloistered presidents Rogers Park, where dozens of young girls recently have been lured into afternoon and evening "petting parties."
The inquiry by detectives from three stations—East Chicago, West Chicago and Rogers Park—was ordered immediately following the arrest of Nora, Mabel Kelly, 40, and Thomas Foley, they were attempting to flee the Municipal Pier on an excursion boat to Jackson Park.
Mrs. Kelly, a dashing, handsome type of woman, was arreste. by Policemen Charles Bennett and Cyril Coombs, who are on duty at the pier, Complaints against her were signed Mrs. Helen Gallagher and Mrs. Gribbins, both the years old. She was placed under the charge of disobserver conduct and released on a cash bond.
Girls Tell Their Story
"She came up to us and made herself acquainted," the young women told the policemen. "She was very friendly and seemed to be a nice person. While she asked us if we didn't want to make some money and at the same time meet a lot of big, wealthy business men.
"We told her we would and asked her what we would have to do. She said we only had to come to any moment she would call us to by telephone. We would meet the wealthy men and have 'petting parties' with them.
"We asked her if there would be dancing and she replied: 'O no; you won't have to dance. I'll just put you both on the reception committee. All you have to do is come when you telephone you to whatever apartment I give you the address of.' Mrs. Symons said, she then told the woman she "could not get away at night." "She said that would be 'perfectly right.' Mrs. Symons continued. "You can just nice, sweet, innocent looking kind, little, sweet. You won't have to come at night; I can use you afternoons. I know some other nice little girls like you and you're the kind of a girl the men like to meet in the afternoons." The young women then said they asked the unacquainted. They asked the woman what their "pax" for the services would be, and she replied: "Five dollars; you'll get $8 every time I call you, and, besides, it's a
great opportunity for young girls like you to meet men of money and means."
They said they then left the woman "walking around and talking to other girls," thinking no more about their encounter until the policemen asked them to tell their stories and sign the complaints.
Spotted by Dance Manager Policemen Bennett and Combs first had their attention called to Mrs. Kelly by Pat Harmon, dancing master who operates the ballroom on the Municipal pier. Harmon told them, the policemen said, that he had observed Mrs. Kelly the young girls to his dances and did not her actions. The policemen started a cautious surveillance of Mrs. Kelly. They observed her talking to various girls, they said, and in several instances she appeared to be taking their telephone numbers.

But just as the policemen were going to place her under arrest on this night a crowd of dancers swept from the floor and she disappeared among them. Next afternoon Bennett and Coombs watched again and found her on the Jackson park excursion boat with Fulton.
THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK
(Continued From Page One)
er with the magic smoothness of a Thurston. And yet, Mr Oliver thinks he is a political factor, with all kinds of power. He is simply duped by his advisors who are seeking some way to climb up on Oliver capital.
Now let us turn to the other ticket, the ticket of the "regular Republican organization," headed by Mr. Leslie. The whole picture changes. There is no partnership here. The organization has but one leader, Mr. Leslie, and he is the strategist of the strategists. The ticket is named for no man, nor combination of men. It is simply the ticket of the "regular Republican organization." The newspapers belonging to Mr. Oliver and the Democratic papers refer to the ticket as the Leslie ticket as a blind, but Leslie has no ticket. As a man, he has never been known to dictate tickets. He simply leads the organization of which he is head. His equal is not to be found in these parts, and his every move is feared by the opposition. His organization will support the following ticket:
For judges of the Orphan's Court: Hon. J. P. Miller and Hon. Thomas P. Trimble. These judges have served for many years, and under the law, they are to be retained as long as they "well behave themselves."
For Common Pleas Court: Hon. James R. McFarlane and Hon. Harry R. Rowand. These judges have also served the people, and are to be re-elected under the hard and fast rule of the regular Republican party that judges are to be retained as long as they well behave themselves. Judge Miller was elected a Democrat but he is to have no opposition. The rule forbids it.
For these offices, Leslie did not pick a man. They are to be retained under the rule and under the spirit of the law creating judges.
For district attorney, Hon. Samuel H. Gardner, now serving his first term since he was appointed by the Judges of the Common Pleas Courts under the provision of the law. Mr. Leslie did not pick this man, but his organization will elect him because he was chosen by the judges from all the candidates for the place. The organization would not oppose Mr. Gardner out of respect to the judgment of the 14 judges who placed Mr. Gardner in the high office he now fills.
For county commissioners:
Joseph G. Armstrong and J. D. O'Neil, organization choice.
For register of wills: Joseph N. Mackrell, organization choice. The type of women supporting Mr. Mackrell more than take care of the Mrs. J.

PRIMARIES: September 18th, 1923.

It requires no sage to see that Mr. Oliver and Mr. Flinn are not to be connected with any of the men named on the regular organization ticket. Then, since they have no men on the Magee ticket, as named above, what part do they expect to play in the coming election, except make donations of their capital?
As political strategists, Mr. Leslie and Mr. Magee are past masters. Each man heads a ticket selected to his own liking. It does not matter, particularly, which ticket wins, these two men are the winners. They have Mr. Oliver counted out, and Mr. Flinn has never been considered a factor, except as a liberal contributor, when he thinks he is doing the dictating. Mr. Oliver had to be "counted out" because his newspapers are giving Mr. Pinchot too-much encouragement. The "pinch" will have to be taken out of the governor before delegates are elected to Chicago, and now is the time to destroy Oliver and his journalistic influence. It was a beautiful piece of work.
The work was well timed well executed. Mr. Magee advised that the Magee-Oliver-Flinn ticket be announced gradually — one man at a time. This was part of the scheme to hold more conferences as part of the "delay scheme," also to prevent too much of an attack upon the "regular organization" of which Mr. Magee is a part—and always will be. Meanwhile, the time is rapidly passing, and the "Independent Ticket" now aborning, will have to continue in labor until the two major factions announce their tickets. Great stuff, and "pulled" with the precision and calmness of a fake prize fight!
Just a few things, well remembered, will sustain our predictions. Mr. Magee can never forgive any man who dares oppose him. He remembers how Steve Porter was slaughtered after he was nominated, and Oliver helped to do it. Magee is waiting around the corner for Oliver. He remembers, too, that his word, once given, is worth more now than when he gave McIntosh the boot for Grimes, and he is not going to be a victim of too much advice again. He knows Leslie's

"regular organization" was the force that made Magee Mayor of Pittsburgh. He remembers his promises to Leslie. He has not fired very many "real Leslie men." The few changes in the police department could be explained very easily. Mr. Magee would not consent to listen to the "demand of the people" for him as Mayor until Leslie's organization agreed to endorse and support him. In short, Mr. Magee is an regular in politics as Henry Cabot Lodge, and respects his word more than ever. The man has improved with age and experiences. We say this without any color of sarcasm; we mean it.
Finally, The Pittsburgh Courier predicts that after the fight, the organization forces of Allegheny County will be in the hands of Messrs Leslie and Magee. Mr. Oliver will have his newspapers left, as usual; while Mr. Flinn will have his cancelled checks as mute evidence of his having played the part of the "sucor" rather than reformer. Pinchot will have had his "pinch" removed, and will be made to like it.
This thing called politics is the most frigid, pig-ironed, heartless, unconscionable business known to man. Let not your hearts be troubled, dear readers, nor be ye enraged or disappointed, it was ever thus.

Questioned, he refused to say where the money was at present and whether it was available. His friends, included with a general sweep of the hand, he also prepared to pay his trial expenses. Miller says he declared, and countless women he had known would rally to his cause in case his own funds were exhausted.

fairs—confronted him on the witness stand of his trial for Griffin's murder Monday afternoon.
Without 'sace falting the girl looked Whitfield straight in the eye, identified him, and then for nearly two hours told the story of his flight and his residence with her at an East Side apartment.
She was the st.te's star witness and by far the greatest attraction for the crowd, which was in attentive silence while she told her story. She appeared as pale wife in her black dress and hat and looked older than 15 years, but went through the ordeal without hesitating.
Identifies Weapon
Her testimony exceeded all expectations, County Prosecutor Edward G. Stanton said. Here's what she did:
Identified a 45-caliber automatic pistol, with the name H. L. Maples engraved on it as Whitfield's.
Said she had seen it at his residence at 10607 Elgin avenue N. E. last February, and later—on the day of Griffin's murder—at her apartment at 1563 E. 93d street.
Told how he gave it to Dewey Biggs, Chicago garage owner, as part payment for repairs on the Jordan roadster.
Testified that he was "pale and excited" when he came for her in the afternoon of May 11, the day of the murder and of the flight.
Said he shaved off his mustache immediately before they started on their flight.
Told that he painted the floor of the Jordan car "on the right hand side" when they were nine miles out of Gary, Ind., and "touched up the left hand side pocket at the same time."
Told that the car had no name plate on it when they left Cleveland and that Whitfield had bought a Hudson name plate on Michigan avenue in Chicago and had it soldiered on, in front of an auto accessory store in Chicago.
Testified that Whitfield bought a can of black paint and just outside Crown Point, ind, painted some spike paint on the wall. Gary, the next day, he painted the

It was found that each ribbon was concealed in a basket of the three colors extending from the ceiling, and when each one pulled their ribbon a shower of envelopes came fluttering down and with each a card with an American and Canadian flag was enclosed bearing the announcement of Miss Zelda Montgomery of Monongahela, Pa. to Franklin Young of Ningara Falls, Canada.

Features galore and many new novel forms of entertainment are being planned by the management, the most novel of which will be the "Moonlight Waltz." Lovers of music, who want to hear the very latest in Blues and Syncopation must not miss this rare treat, which savors of the Big Doin's along the Atlantic board.

Those holding "Frog Week" activity cards are cordially invited.
The party will be strictly chaperoned by members of Faculty, and patrons of the Club.

Black Still Holds Its Own
Just as one begins to believe that black is definitely out of the running, so far as fashion is concerned, it suddenly steps into the foreground and once more occupies an important position.
New frocks of black materials are being shown for midsummer wear. They are very charming and revealed originality. Many are lace-trimmed and in a number of instances the lace is white, cream or yellow.
There is a lovely frock of black chiffon which has three pleated flounces on the skirt. Each flounce is edged with narrow Valenciennes lace, a deep yellow in tone, and the flounces are arranged to slant upward from the left to the right side. Lace appears as a finish at the neck and edges the ruffles on the sleeves. A most interesting frock is a wide-skirted, tight-waisted model of black satin trimmed with appliques of heavy ivory lace. Another of black net has squares of beige lace inserted into the skirt and waist. The entire frock is pleated and the effect is extremely attractive.

ATHLETICS THE WORLD OVER
Kansas City Takes Lead As Detroit Stars Lose To A. B.
SOUTHERN MANAGERS IN CHICAGO
Owners of Birmingham and Memphis Clubs Want to Be Taken Into N. N. League — Confer With Foster.
(Special to The Pittsburgh Courier)
By N. S. W. Association
CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 2.—Inability of the owners of the Cleveland Tate Stars' owners, who have struggled valiantly against almost overwhelming odds this season, to raise the amount of deposit necessary for the franchise, vacated by the disbanding of the Toledo club, leaves a vacancy in the Negro National League, which in all probability will be filled by the Black Burons, of Birmingham, Ala.
The Memphis Red Sox also seek a franchise in the league. Owner Joe Rush, of the Birmingham club, has been in conference with Andrew Rube Foster, president of the league, since Tuesday morning. R. S. "Bubbles" Lewis joined the conference Wednesday, coming direct from Memphis. The two southern owners insist that their clubs are equal to big company, in which they desire to travel, and point to the win of the Black Barons over Milwaukee in the series just closed in which the southern club won two, tied one and lost one out of four games played.
There is a feeling throughout the circuit as far as the fans are concerned that the league would be benefitted by the admission of these two clubs, inasmuch as most of the fans, as well as the ball players of today, come from the southland, more, too, according to Owner Rush,irmingham attendance week days is far better than in Chicago on Saturdays. There is no Sunday ball in that city, but he claims and backs on his claims with figures, that Monday will draw just as many fans to his park as he could get there on Sundays. While we wait for the agreement of the directors of the league to the request of these two southern baseball magnates in tentative agreement he has been reached wherein league clubs play in both Memphis and Nashville.
Toledo will play in Memphis on July 20, and in Birmingham on July 30, and Aug. 1. The St. Louis Stars will go to Birmingham for five games Aug. 2, 3, 4, 6 and 7. On Sunday, Aug. 5, St. Louis will jump Memphis, owing to the fact that the Alabama city taboos Sandy Hill.
For the first time in the history of the Negro National league the American Giants will leave during the middle of the season and make trip south, playing in Birmingham Aug. 20, 21 and 22. These three days will be gala day in the southern metropolis as folks from miles round will come out to see Rubie Foster's club, thrice winners of the Negro National League pennant, against the home club.
Owner Lewis is now trying to arrange dates whereby the Chicago club can stop off in Memphis either going or coming, for three games on the Birmingham trip.

Clark Pitches No Run No Hit Game In W.Va.
PARKERSBURG, W. Va., Aug. 2.—Following their defeat at Charleen Saturday the Homestead Grays electrified the fans of this community by showing them a no-hit, no-run game with Clark occupying the mound. Clark came mighty close to having a perfect game recorded in his season's achievements, as only three of the Parkersburg players reached first base and none got around to third. Those to get on the Keystone did so through the 'generosity of Clark, who issued two bases on balls, while the other was safe on an error. Clark pitched wonderful ball, being effective the entire game. The Parkersburg batsmen were unable to do anything with him and while the game was the hardest the Grays have ever had in this city, there was never any doubt as to the winner on account of the splendid manner in which Clark puzzled the opposing batters.
Clark, it may be recalled, has scored three shut outs in his last seven games, also has four white-wish opportunities to his credit for the season.
Early Lead Gives Charleroi 9-5 Win Over Homesteaders
CHARLEROI, Aug. 2.—Hopping on the delivery of Cannady for three home runs and garnering one off of Lefty Williams, who relieved Cannady, the Homestead Grays dropped the second game of their series to the Charleroi club here today by the score of 9 to 5. It was only the second time Charleroi had beaten the Grays in nine games, they winning six last year and the morning game played July 4.
Three more games are to be played, the Grays, making their next appearance on the local field Saturday, August 11, and they will also play two games here Labor Day.
The game had the appearance of being a "sick affair" from the very beginning. Weather conditions were far from favorable and it was necessary to dry the water-soaked field by burning sawdust saturated with gasoline before the players were allowed to go on the diamond.
Charlerol scored three runs in the first inning and added another in the fourth. The Grays came back with three in their half of the third inning, but Charlerol increased its lead by scoring twice in the fifth inning and added three more in the eighth. In every inning in which Charlerol tallied home runs were hit, the ball going over the right field fence.
James Mason, manager of Harry Greb, vocal light-heavyweight, in writing of Willard's conduct in his recent fight with Luis Firpo, says that he was not the first heavyweight to quit.
Mason states that Jeffries quit to Johnson at Reno in 1910 in the same way Willard quit to Firpo. Mason declares that he was in Jeffries corner during that memorable fight, and knows all the circumstances surrounding the encounter.

A.B.C's Take Three in Row From Detroit
Dismukes Turns in #Fourth Consecutive Victory. League Race Still Exciting.
DETROIT, Mich., Aug. 2.—Indianapolis arrived in town Saturday and threatened to knock Detroit out of the league leadership by winning both Saturday and Sunday games. In Saturday's game Dismukes pitched and won his fourth straight game. Alexander, who started on the mound for Detroit, was knocked out of the box in the sixth inning. Wesley, Detroit first baseman, hit a home run in the third inning with a runner on base ahead of him. Holloway, for Indianapolis, duplicated Wesley's feat in the sixth inning.
Charleston's home run, his eight of the season, in the first inning with a runner on ahead of him gave the A's a two-run lead 'in Sunday's game, but Detroit came back and tied the score on two bases on balls and two errors in their half of the first. Moore, who started for Indianapolis, was relieved by Corbett with one out and prevented further scoring until the eighth, when Detroit scored three runs on a base on balls, a home run, triple and single. Indianapolis launched a vicious attack on A. Cooper, of Detroit, in the sixth, which was good for a total of four runs, driving him to the shower. They kept up the bombardment on Force, who relieved him by getting two more runs in the seventh. Shively, Charleston and Burnett led in the attack. Detroit used thirteen players in an effort to stave off defeat.

Danny Edwards Given Decision At Polo Grounds
Harlem Barren As Admirers of Pacific Coast Bantam Add Tinge of Real Color to Dundee-Criqui Fight.
(Special to The Pittsburgh Courier)
NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—With Harlem resembling a barren country as thousands of admirers and friends of Danny Edwards, colored bantam-weight champion of the world, a tingle of real colors was given the Dundee-Criqui fight at the Polo Grounds here last Thursday evening. The cause of the depopulation of Harlem and the increase of population at the Polo Grounds came as a result of the semi-final fight between Edwards and "Irish" Johnny Curtain.
But disappointment, to a certain extent, was the lot of those of both sexes who had helped fill the vast arena, for announcement was made that Curtain would not show, as he had tipped the beam eleven pounds overweight. Your correspondent thinks that Curtain did not care to meet the colored flash to play off the rubber between them. Either that or it is now impossible for him to make the bantamweight limit, although George Moore would have allowed him to come in weighing five pounds over his boy.
Delmont Given Lesson
But Harlem had come to see its pride in action and an unroar greeted the announcement that Gene Delmont would be substituted. The shrill cries of the women and the hoarse voices of the men mingled in a refrain of "Come on, Danny," as the two men squared off for the first round. And during the three rounds of fighting, Edwards taught his opponent, said to be one of the cleverest men in the class, just how the simple art of boxing is really put over. Jabbing him with rights and lefts to the face and body, Edwards gave Delmont no chance to set, himself, and when hostilities were ended at the end of three rounds, to allow the main bout to proceed, the crowd needed no referee's decision. Edwards had won every round by the proverbial mile, and dried from Ring.
Edwards was carried from the ring on the shoulders of Harry Wills and Kid Norfolk, and exclaimed that he was the "happiest man in the world". It is thought that he will be given one or two bouts with top-notchers and then he be given a crack at the bantamweight crown, now resting on the aged head of Joe Lynch.
Cuban Stars Lose
CHICAGO. Ill. Aug. 2. — The Cuban Stars lost an 11 inning game to the Famous Chicagoans (white). Sunday afternoon at the American Giants park during the absence of the Giants, who were playing in Kansas City, Mo., against the Mariners. The Cubans did not support Pardone, who fanned 12. well. Righ was charged with four errors at short and was shifted in the closing innings of the game to third and Rios to short. Combining three walks and an error with two timely singles, the white boys scored three runs in the eleventh, enough to sew up the game. Debut pitched the tenth and eleventh frames. Padron giving way to a pinch hitter in the ninth. Howard, who started for the visitors, went to the showers in the sixth. Smithson finishing. R.H.E. Chicago... 1 2001 1001 1103 - 9154 Cubans... 1 0030 2000 0000 - 6116
Notes of the Grays
The Homestead Gray player attracting the most attention around the independent circuit now is "Rags" Roberts, the Grays' new outfielder. The fans are watching his work and every day they glance at the box score to see that he has added a couple of more hits. He's surely clutching the ball at a terrific rate and appears to be the best lead-off man in this neck of the woods.
Sam Langford Loses Title to Clem Johnson
Veteran New England Fighter Forced to Stop in Thirteenth After Young Opponent Had Administered Fearful Beating.
Tate Knocks Out Buddy Jackson In Tenth Round At The Commonwealth
EL PASO, Texas, Aug. 2.—It was a wobbly, peace-craving Sam Langford that hobbled back to his corner in the Juarez bull ring Friday night after signalling the referee that he would relinquish all claims to the heavyweight boxing title of Mexico to the huge and perfectly built battler from New York City, Clem Johnson.
Sam made his defeat-denoting journey to his corner one minute and twenty-five seconds after the opening of the thirteenth round, after everyone of the dozen previous sessions had gone to the New Yorker.
The Bostonian probably saw more gloves Friday night than he ever saw before on any of his 350 old fights, and about nine-tenths of the gloves were tacked on Johnson's piston-like left arm that found Langford's face and body with an unceasing patter of blows, beginning only a few seconds after the opening in ground and ended only when Sam turned his back on Johnson and acknowledged defeat to the referee.
Perhaps Langford was troubled by the fact that it was Friday night and the thirteenth round when the much taller New York fighter's lefts and rights began to find Sam's aching chin and broad nose in a particularly vicious attack shortly after the opening of the final period—Friday and the thirteenth coupled never brought anybody any luck. Sam may
NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—"You fell
loved," said "Big Bill" Tate, after he
came out of the ring at the Common-
wealth Sporting Club last Saturday
night and a few minutes after he
hacked out Buddy Jackson,
"will no doubt take exception to my
showing you as you expected me to put
this boy away in the first round. But
all of you seem to have forgotten
that there isn't a soul for Harry
Wills to fight but your humble serv-
ant, and what it takes to save these
hands of mine your Uncle Bill is
toting it around in all fight clubs."
"Few fans realize that when you broke your hand against the hard head of an opponent it means being laid up from four to six months. A score of times, as you no doubt notice, I held Jackson on off and set myself to deliver the finishing punch, but each time the thought came to me to be extremely careful of my hand, I was hit with it and too much so but Firpo is fighting Dempsey and believe it or not, there will be no Wills-Dempsey fight this year and if Harry wants to prove that he is my master at the game, the time is ripe for us to play off the rubber."
So said Big Bill after his fight with Buddy. When they paled out to start the ball rolling it looked like the little birds singing for Jackson, but the young man is a glutton for punishment, as Big Bill heaveall of his two hundred and thirty pounds behind his right hand blows to the body and a vicious jab that kept Buddy's neck out of gear all through the fight. To the uninitiated it looked rather brilliant the way Buddy would stage his flurries and throw some good lefts and rights to Tate's body. The blows carried a sting and the crowd liked it, but the men in the crowd who always follow a crowd's jabbering did not see that for every blow Tate landed it took five or ten of Buddy's to make any kind of an impression.
Tate refused to be flustered by the mob or even Buddy's rushes from time to time and kept studiously poking his long left into his face. "In the ninth round it looked very much like Jackson would last over the route, and when Denver Ed Martin asked Tate if he was going to let Buddy gain new laurels by staying

have thought—but the punch-wobbleled warrior of the ring took no chances. Surprising everyone of the huge throng which filled the big old historic. bull ring, Sam suddenly wheeled around toward his corner presenting his broad back to his opponent, and at the same time motioning to the referee to raise Johnson's hand.
Thirteenth Round
Friday, the thirteenth round, coupled with Clem's vicious left jab, had beaten one of pugilism's best known characters.
It was another case of the downfall of pugilistic age before youth Langford, who tells the sport writers that he is 38 years of age, was facing a youngster of 26 years. Sam also was giving away many pounds, for his poundage was declared to be 185, while that of Johnson was announced several days ago as 205.
Langford, who won the Mexican heavy title by a knockout of Kid Savage in Mexico City several months ago, battled the last two or three rounds of the fight that was his downfall with only a faint sight of his opponent, for the constant rain of lefts and occasional-rights that found Langford's face often reached his eyes. In the thirteenth both his eyes were of little use to him.
Langford had gone into the ring once too often.

Chappie Johnson's Royal Stars have returned from a successful road trip of several weeks. Out of 92 games played, they Chappie, but 18 were lost. They are to play Philadelphia teams. The writer is eager awaiting the schedule.
As was told in the Courier at the time, "Ping" Gardner jumped the Hilldale team to join Chappie, thus outliving himself from the P. B. A. Now, if he plays P. B. A. teams what are their rules and regulations worth?
And no one has taken the trouble the season a clique within the P. B. A. director, is Johnson's backer.
The Lincoln Giants have secured a Philadelphia park, playing two games a week at the Fourth and Winghocking street grounds. Good colored teams are very much in demand in the Quaker district.
Manager John Henry Lloyd, of Hildale, is still on the bench. The old war horse is taking things easy. With the opposition as weak as it is he can afford to favor the game leg.
left and pasted Buddy, whose powers were all gone by this time, on the jaw and he went down to stay down. Not realizing the punishment being administered by his heavier opponent, there were some in the crowd who did Bud the injustice to shout that he was quitting. It was nothing of the kind. The boy put up a mighty good fight against, over-whelming odds, for few have withstood those constant, pile-driving blows that carry, none of the grand stand flavor, but reaches home with deadly effect. Had Tate rushed his man and fought him without thought, of hurting his hands, he would have put him away long before the tenth.
Considering everything Bud must be given credit for coming back so soon after his other fight in which he was getting the worst of it when the white boy broke his hand and staying with Tate as long as he did. It is the opinion of Ray Bennett, another heavy that he would like a chance to face Tate in the near future and no doubt the McMahons will give Ray his chance. It should make a good fight, as Ray feels confident of defeating Big Bill.

Driving Game Triumphs Over Soft Chop-Stroke In Eastern Championships
Old Stroke Artists Upset by Lashing "Top-Pin" Strokes of "Latter-Day" Players — Superiority of New Stroke Proven.
By EDGAR G. BROWN
National Singles Tennis Champion BALTIMORE, Md., Aug. 2. To our many skeptics, I claim "artists" of the cut and chop stunner fallacy and its attendant retrepression in personal success and the passing of the generous tolerance of sincere friends and a once prespecting gallery, I truly take warranted pleasure in announcing to the world that in the first big Eastern tournament for the singles tennis championship of the Atlantic States, the driving game demonstrated its superiority in demonstration over the rest of the variety of tennis almost universally among our leading and best tennis players up until the summer of 1922.
Times change and the big 1923 Eastern championships have started the tongues "awagging" and all because the old favorites and cut ball stylists fell before the fast driving top spin of more newcomers this year with rather open and less imprecise backs, and came back with the hard dashing game because of the confidence gained in those observations in the finals in New York and Philadelphia last August and a re-confirmed belief in its efficacy to carry him to the championship.
To be somewhat more specific, the first shock came in the hittier twelfth round, and the best Dr. McRae fell before young Woolridge, of Washington, who drives the ball on the backhand as well as the forehand, then Woolridge heat his team mate, another "cutter," Dr. Man Daurope, while I was easily disposing of the old master and head of the "pat斗" fraternity, the Rev. Dr. Walker, with all his splendid generalization and of course reputation for running disappointment all over the court. Score: 62-62.
But the really big upset came with the fall that shall be heralded in years to come in all authentic tennis annuals, when my hard hitting doubles partner and a player eligible for next year's veteran's tournament will be called Wacha. Prof. John Wilkerson beat the quickest and hardest fighting tennis player in America, and for several years Baltimore's champion and the sport's pride, Dr. B. M. Rhetta. Mr. Wilkerson beat Dr. Rhetta and his cut ball by "shmiming" the ball hard enough to hit his opponent when he came to the net and running him from one corner to the other until he drove the ball with "heap much" top spin entirely out of the doctor's reach. It was a clean-cut triumph for the driving game over the cut and chop ball variety. Two of Baltimore's leading players have made it possible to hit a ball easy or to play putt ball again as long as they live.
I see for them great success and unlooked for enjoyment and genuine fascination that in all these years of playing they have not yet tasted. To them and to other ambitious ones I recommend again a little reading at least of the mistaken stories like Blackburn. Paret and a weekly visit to some country club, where they are bound to see the proper form. See Tilden, Johnson, Richards, Williams, Alonzo and Shimidau and the many

Of course, Mrs. Auxin is my choice among the women provided Miss Crawford, of New York, or Mrs. Wade are not entered. Miss Thomas, of Philadelphia, must be reckoned with even she does cut the ball.

Home Runs Fail to Beat Raleigh Club
RALEIGH, W. V., Va., Aug. 2. — Two home runs by the Charleston All-Stars in the first two innings of Sunday's game with the Raleigh Clippers proved of no avail here Sunday, and the inter club won an exciting 7-6 game before one of the largest crowds of the season. The visitors started off with a rush, scoring three times in the first two innings. All of these runs were the direct results of two home runs by Whit and Cox. The Clippers scored two runs in the first and four in the second. The winning tally came in the sixth. The visitors made a desperate attempt to even the score the last innning, but fell one short of their aim. Score by innings. R.H.E. All Stars . . . 210 000 006 — 6 54 Clippers . . . 240 001 007 — 12 43 Batteries—All Stars, Davis and Jefferson: Clipper, H. Jackson and C. Jackson.
McMAHON'S WILLING TO STAGE WILLS-TATE BOUT
Appearance Indicate That Challengers Chances of Meeting Champion Are Decidedly Slim.
NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—A stiff rumor is going to the lands in Harlem that the reason why Harry Wills hasn't been successful in getting a fight with Jack Dempsey is because Paddy Mullins, manager of the colored fighter, is too tight with the dough. It is said by certain ones in the dredd dollars spent judiciously would have brought about the contest, but Paddy refuses to function like other managers and poor Harry will be growing a snow-white beard before he gets his chance at the championship.
When Jack Kearns realized he was in bad on account of the Shiloh flashe, he told the world that he was coming to New York to sign for a Wills-Dempsey fight. These columns called this announcement a lot of excitement, spoken, although the local colored sheets fell just as hard for the bunk as the white papers. Kearns had no sooner hit this town before he was closed with Tex Rickard and it was decided twenty-four hours after he was here to stage the fight, although he was not the first to announce for days that nothing definite had been done. We know better.
Had Paddy Mullins been the kind of manager worthy of piloting the destinies of the most logical contender for championship honors he would have met Mr. Marrars, who had been Paddy is a white man and there are many white papers that would have been tickled to death to stir up the waters in his behalf had he shown the qualities we expect of a real manager, but he was clam-like no not "taking it to the Lood in prayer."
Wills lost his chance and if Dempsey wins from Firpo, when we expect him to do, the champion of the whites will be hitting the road raking in the shekels from the stage and then going to the mountains to rest up until they discover another ham, while Willis will be cooling his heels. If Firpo shekels from Dempsey, he would be the biggest fool in the world not to back in the sunshine of the championship and not return to the Argentina for six months or a year so that his own people can shower honors upon him. This will again leave Willis just where he is.
And that is why we argue that Harry might as well come out and let his admirers see his stuff against Big Bill Tate. He might as well get some fights under his belt as his waiting is going to so jungle that Firpo-Dempsey fight in such a manner the white newspapers are going to tell us that it will be too soon for Dempsey to fight on Labor Day aftr-

Real Stars to Compete In Court Tournament
NEW YORK CITY, Aug. 2.—With the tennis season well under way and with the rapid approach of the Big National Tournament in Chicago, the latter part of this month, the court game is receiving added impetus as the weeding out process goes on. With inter-community, inter-urban and inter-sectional matches being played throughout the cast, in an effort to get those best qualified, things are moving along surely.
And with the arrival of Edgar G. Brown, national tennis champion, in the East, the improved playing of Ayres Saitch, Sylvester Smith, Tally Holmes and others in this class, dopesters are all up in the air.

George Moore, a colored man who has shown unusual ability and recognizes the colored press in spite of the fact that he enjoys the have of white ones also, is manage of Tate. We are with Moore because we believe that he is a better man and Manager than Paddy Mullins. We are with Moore because we believe that if he had Wills, even though he is a colored man, the public would have got a better run for their money in his attempts to bring about George Moore because today we see an opportunity of a colored fighter coming to the front for championship honors through his experience and work and when we are with a man we support him though the heavens fall and the lower regions thick and thin. Let Wills come out and fight Tate, though he knocks out the ever-willing Big Bill.

The President Stricken
Fair play dictates the sincere desire to see our Chief Executive rapidly returned to normal health and vigor. His recent travels have taxed his resisting powers to the breaking point. Anxious, as he is, to serve his party in every way possible, he is less mindful of his own personal welfare than better judgment would dictate. We hope for him a complete restoration to health of body and mind and soul. There are some very important things we would like to have him do.
The Salt of the South
Elsewhere on this page we carry an editorial comment which appeared in The Daily News, Greensboro, North Carolina. The subject treated is the vexatious Tuskegee Hospital and the southern whites. The editor so completely and so comprehensively embraces the exact truth of the whole situation, we are constrained to pass the comment along to our readers.
Such men as the editor of The Daily News constitute the salt of the South, and it will be such men and their thought that will save the South from the wild ignorance of the unfutured rebels. When there appears upon the southern horizon such a stalwart friend of common justice, the occasion merits notice, and comment commensurate. The white men of the South who know common justice, and who know that the only demand of the black man is an impartial administration of that common justice, are quite satisfied that it is far better for their country to save the labor agencies at the expense of rabid race prejudice, than further to encourage the mob and mob spirit, and thereby force their fertile fields into pastures, and their leading industries into idleness.
Out of the exodus, and the determination of the Negro to better his condition, or die of some malady or mishap in the effort, will come, we predict, the same and stalwart white consciousness needed to make the South a fit place for all men to labor and to live.
The Sheets, The Sheets!
It had to come—the truth about the Klan demonstration at Tuskegee! We have the real, living, throbbing truth, as it comes from the lips and the retained records of a discharged colored nurse. She is the lady whose services were not needed after the Klan demonstration was pulled.
It develops that sheets belonging to the Veteran's Hospital at Tuskegee were used by members of the Ku Klux Klan in their recent demonstration as a threat against manning the hospital with Negroes to care for the Negro veterans. And we know the report is true because the colored nurse, Zella H. Peck, of Chicago, who had charge of the linens at the hospital, holds now and yet the requisition given her by the white head lady who ordered the sheets on the 3rd of July. The lady, in her excitement, fired Mrs. Peck without lifting the requisitions for the sheets. Great God, what a providential stroke! The sheets, when returned to be laundered, were full of axle grease, mud spots and showed signs of recent wear.
Now what? This evidence of strong arm stuff against the government is about as complete as any commonwealth would want to make a prima facia case.
What will the government at Washington do about this? We ask what has it done? Secretary Hughes is presiding at Washington, in the absence of our sick President, and we ask what has Mr. Hughes done about it? We answer that he has done nothing. Mr. Harding is not going to do anything, either. He had his opportunity, in the very beginning, to tell those southern crackers, and we distinguish them from the better class advisedly, that the government was giving the Negro veterans their own people to nurse them back to the health taken from them by white nations of the earth. And we would have been proud of the opportunity. But, no; President Harding was just that indifferent, careless individual that he is, and he let some "George do it," and it was done in the most fiendish manner this government ever had anything done.
The Pittsburgh Courier does not believe that our boys ought to be allowed to stay at the Tuskegee Hospital for any further treatment at the hands of the people in charge. Their lives are not in hands we can trust. Our boys are not even permitted to die a natural death. The Klan is permitted to dictate the personnel of the hospital; to use the sheets paid for by the government out of the people's money as hoods of fear and intimidation; to drive our educators away from their positions and labor.
As we see it, our boys MUST BE REMOVED. If we have to pay for their treatment out of our own savings, let us do it. The sheets will haunt them to their untimely death. The Sheets, the Sheets!
La Follette a Single Factor
With four western recruits to support him, it looks as though United States Senator La Follette will constitute a factor all by himself in the next congress. The man simply has an idea that will not down. It is not a new idea, but the idea of a normal people, seeking normal life under conditions which spell equal opportunity for all.
In a recent address, Mr. La Follette uttered the following:
The Progressives in the next congress propose to repeal the Cummins-Esch railroad law and reduce the ruinous existing freight rates; to reduce the burden of taxation on the common people—the consumers; to enact and enforce absolute publicity of all income tax returns and stop dishonest tax dodging by trusts and millionaires; to deal firmly with the monopolies in oil, coal, steel, lumber, sugar, meats and other necessaries of life; to call the gambling organizations to account and insure fair prices in grain and other farm products; to earth militaries and other farm products.
THE PITTSBURGH COURIER
Pittsburgh THE Courier AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY
If he had added lynching and disfranchisement to his admirable list, we could underwrite it without a qualm. After all, the world seeks to know and to do the right, and retard it as we may, the program of the common people will yet prevail.
For some time, there has been keen discussion, and not a little over-drawn comment anent the actual belief of the Roman Catholic. Not many of us creatures in this world know exactly WHAT WE DO BELIEVE. Many of us think we believe this or that; but we are not any too sure of WHAT WE ACTUALLY BELIEVE. The Pittsburgh Courier, believing that every man has a right to use all the light he has, as God gives him power to use it, offers no objection to any religion or creed which accepts God as God of all men. Therefore, in order that there may be an honorable discussion in the future of WHAT CATHOLICS DO BELIEVE, we offer the following for our readers, with the hope that all men may more nearly approach the life and teachings of the ONE CHRIST we so vehemently profess to follow—until he leads us to the imperishable "color line."
Catholics believe in the Trinity; in other words, that God exists in three Divine Persons; they believe in the Incarnation of the Son of God, and hence in the Divinity of Christ. They accept the whole Bible, from cover to cover, as containing God's revealed word. They believe that the Holy Scriptures cease to be God's Word when wrongfully interpreted. They believe in Original Sin; they believe that Christ instituted Baptism to remove Original Sin and to impart a new birth or supernatural life to the soul; and that he instituted six other sacraments to sustain and strengthen the spiritual life or to restore it when lost through sin. They believe that Christ empowered His apostles and their successors, through a sacrament, to remove sins committed by people after their Baptism; they believe that Christ gave His real Flesh and Blood to His Apostles at the Last Supper, and that He empowered them and their successors to communicate Him to His followers. They believe in the immortality of the soul, a place of eternal reward, and another place of eternal punishment. They believe that, just as there is a place of immediate eternal reward for the very good, and a place of eternal punishment for the very wicked, so also there is an intermediate state of temporary purification for those who cannot be classed with either of these two extremes. They believe that the dead in this intermediate place, which they call Purgatory, may be assisted by the prayers and good works of the faithful on earth. They believe that the Saints can help us by their intercession, not as mediators in the sense that Christ is a mediator by redemption, but as you and I are mediators before God when we pray for one another. They believe in a general judgment at the end of the world, in the resurrection of the dead, and in eternal life.
Now, will some Protestant tell us as briefly: WHAT ALL PROTESTANTS DO BELIEVE?
Linc. Johnson, National Committeeman from Georgia, lives in Washington, D. C. He insists that he is still the party representative of Georgia. We admit Linc. is one leader who manages to stay several hundred miles "ahead" of his followers.
President Harding is reported sick. We have not heard of any Negro prayer meetin's in behalf of his recovery—as yet.
James Weldon Johnson has resigned his "Contributor's" place on the editorial staff of the Aged Age. We congratulate Mr. Johnson. Fred Moore could never harmonize his bill to the Republican (white) leaders around New York with the radically progressive "comments" of James Weldon. But, it must be remembered that Fred has a family of "scissors wielders" and they'll manage to fill up the page each week.
And Dr. DuBois proved that he is for segregation, and he turned right around and proved that he is against segregation. We always contended that the fellow is bright.
We hear that James Weldon Johnson, formerly of the bar, formerly an author, formerly of the N. A. A. C. P., formerly of the Aged Age staff, formerly of (we forget the town, now) will soon announce his candidacy for congress on a Highly Radical Progressive Ticket. Atta, Boy!
WHAT THEY SAID LAST WEEK
WHAT THEY SAID LAST WEEK
It is refreshing to see honest statements on vital questions, and more refreshing when we see such open honesty as we glean from the following lines found in the St. Louis Clarion:
The Savannah Tribune asks that Major Moton be given a little charity at this time. We agree with the editor asking the favor, but we also solicit one favor for the masses, and that is that: Dr. Moton, hereafter, let the Big Question alone, if he has the interest of the masses at heart. We gave him charity after his address to our boys in France; we gave him charity after his Ohio talk; we gave him charity when he said his wife had no business on a Pullman, or words with a similar weakness. We are tired of this charity stuff. The Savannah Tribune asks for charity for Major Moton in the following fine spirit:
SOROTHIC ACTIONS
It seems to be the spirit amore some to express themselves on the spur of the moment before giving mature thought to the same. This is regrettably true of many publicists. Such assertions cause much harm, create distrust and distress. Since the advent of the veterans' hospital affair, Dr. Moton has been severely taken to task for alleged statements or deals anent its management. Many of his accusers have been unfair and very inconsiderate. At this, more than any other time, Dr. Moton should have the support of every right thinking person of the race. Securing this, the present situation will be so clarified that finally the hospital matter will be settled in a manner satisfactory, and not only that, but the air around the institute will regain its accustomed evenness. All of us may not agree with Dr. Moton in manners he does or says, but there is one thing true and that is his sincerity and uppermost desire to accomplish the most good. The spirit of charitableness should be extended him, especially at this time.
Just when we were about to breathe easy on the Tuskegee Hospital mess, we get the reliable information that the Klan parade at Tuskegee
iquities which overwhelm the people with taxation, beget foreign complications, and inevitably breed foreign wars; and to mete out merited punishment to the profiteers and graffers.

What Catholics DO Believe
SQUIBBS
WHERE WE STAND POLITICALLY
We have been asked several times where we stand politically. We have steadily answered, "We don't."
Negroes who are working honestly for the advancement of the race instead of some personal advantage can not consistently tell one what their present political convictions are. Tern between the mis-information of some of our leaders with personal axes to grind and our own common sense analyses of what the race has gotten out of the few years of Republican dominance of National, State and city politics, very few of us can come to any definite, honest decision as to what we should do. The only thing we are absolutely sure of is that we should and will do something.
To all of the above, we add our unstinted approval.
some time ago was put on with the assistance of "some one on the inside." Sheets from the Hospital were used by members of the Klan as disguises. The St. Louis Sargus gives us this one on the subject:
GOVERNMENT OR KU KLUX KLAN
The latest development in connection with the Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee, is the charge made that the Ku Klux Klan used the sheets belonging to the government during a recent parade through the streets of that city with the hope of frightening and terrorizing the Negroes to the extent that they (the Negroes) would themselves protest the appointment of colored to man the Government Hospital which has been erected there for the care of disabled Negro War Veterans.
This report, which comes to us from good authority, should be thoroughly investigated by the Government to ascertain who is responsible for the removal and replacing of the sheets belonging to the Hospital, which were used by the Klan.
Suspicion, as we see it, points strongly to Col. Stanley because he is the man in charge.
In this we can see a challenge to the United States Government by the Klan, as to just how far it will go in carrying out its plans.
Yes; we want to know, which shall it be. Invisible Government or United States Government. Its about time we found out something.

More power and glory to the Birmingham Reporter. Treating the subject editorially, the shining star of the far South says:
An ordinance is presented to the Montgomery City Commission which bars the parading of men disguised, and two-thirds of the commission favor the bill, which will surely pass at the next regular meeting, Tuesday, July 31st. This is the manner in which all of these violence should be met. It does not necessarily show a particular interest in the blacks, but it does show a spirit to see that some form of justice is meted out to a people who are so powerless to protect themselves against mobs and invisible government. There is a disposition to terrorize and humiliate the Negro in every quarter and in every way.
We need every honorable black man who is an Alabamian for Alabama. We need to persuade him to exercise patience and carefulness. The state needs them far more than it needs these questionable organizations that have as one of their objects to drive the Negro in his state. The situation is squirrelly up to the point in his problem. The Negro is ready as of always to co-operate in the things that mean advancement for him, his state and nation. No kind of persuasion can change his notion unless the devilment practiced can be stopped.
VIEWS OF OTHER EDITORS
The Tuskegee Case
(From the Greensboro, N. C., Daily News)
The Daily News offers elsewhere today a communication from a citizen of Tuskegee, Alabama, regarding the unfortunate events that have taken place there in connection with the manning of the government hospital for disabled Negro veterans. We take it that this is the Tuskegee case; and we therefore recommend that it be perused with care by every reader of the Daily News.
As to the government promise to put white men in charge of the hospital, we know nothing that would justify us in refusing to accept Mr. Powell's account of the bargain. If any such promise was made, its repudiation by the government is indefensible and Tuskegee has every right to enter a protest.
But entering a protest is one thing, and threatening the lives of Negro citizens and the destruction of the property of an educational institution is quite another. A parade of 700 masked men is not a decent and orderly method of entering a protest; much less is a threat to burn Tuskegee institute.
Even if the government has broken its promise, Tuskegee has no excuse for resorting to violence. According to Mr. Powell, under the original arrangement 325 of the 400 people to compose the personnel were to Negroes, anyhow, and of course all the patients are to Negroes. The row, then, hinges upon the introduction into the hospital of a total of 75 more Negroes.
Now how on earth can the uproar be justified on that ground? Mr. Powell refers vaguely to the troubles that will follow the arrival in Tuskegee of Negro officers in uniform, under the protection of the federal government and not amenable to local laws. Where does he get that stuff? If Negroes are sent to the hospital, they will be precisely on the footing of the white personnel who are, Mr. Powell says, employees of the Public Health service, and just as much under control of local laws as a letter carrier or postoffice clerk. But that matter. If the government want man on the government reservation, be just as much subject to control by the civil authorities as are civilians. In time of peace the government never attempts to try by court-martial a soldier charged with committing an offense off the territory under direct control of the government; and in case of a serious crime, even on the reservation, the accused man is invariably turned over to the civil courts for trial.
Furthermore, every fair-minded white man knows that a Negro with character and intelligence enough to win a degree in medicine and to get a job with the United States Public Health Service is not a rowdy. If such a man were sent to Tuskegee he would be the last person on earth to take any action liable to cause him to lose his position; for appointment on the staff of the government, he would be required to take the average Negro physician would value highly.
We repeat we have no defense to offer for the breaking of a promise, exploit or imprison, made by the government to the white citizens of Tuskegee. But, on the other hand, we refuse to believe that the substitution of 75 Negro physicians of the Public Health service for an equal number of white physicians offers the slightest menace to the peace or prosperity of the town.
Picking Dempsey Opponent financial opportunity must not be lost
Time was when contenders for the heavyweight title had to prove their fitness for a championship fight before they were sent into the ring with the king of the class. Jim Jeffries was asked to eliminate Tom Sharkey before he got a match with Bob Fitzsimmons. The Boiler Maker proved his right to a championship fight by beating Sharkey in 20 rounds in San Francisco. Jim Corbett had to prove his caliber in his memoirs. 61 draw with Peter Jackson, the Negro champion of the British Empire, before he could get the match with John L. Sullivan which ended in Corbett's victory at New Orleans in 21 rounds in 1892. Sullivan had battered his way to the top by taking on all comers.
Editorial from the New York Times
While students of boxing are in a state of great agitation over the highly academic question as to whether Harry Wills, the Black Panther from New Orleans, or Luis Angel Firpo, the Wild Bull of the Argentinian pampas, should be he next opponent, Dempsey. Why not match the Panther against the Bull to determine who is to tackle the Man Killer?
Of course this way out of the difficulties of the promoters is far too simple for the financial welfare of these promoters. It would be much more profitable to hold two championship fights than to stage an elimination contest and then a battle for the title. It matters not that the promoters are not really for a contest with Dempsey and that he is too raw to tackle so formidable and experienced a rib coaster as the world champion. The
Firpo has beaten nobody. Jess Willard was a mere shell of a boxer and was not really a fight opponent for the Argentinian. Let Firpo and Wills have it out—and then let the winner go out against Dempsey.

The Ghost of War
NINE years ago last Saturday the Hapsburg the little Balkan kingdom of the Serbian month after the Austrian Crown Prince land by a gentleman who was an Austrian subjew race. The Hapsburg concluded that this Serbian propaganda against Austria and that needed to be taught a lesson. Hence the against the little Serbian state. This fatal step plunged the world in particular, into nine years of continuous war small and otherwise. The war to punish into a war to Make the World Safe for De to End War. Germany was the arch-enemy had to be smashed. Whereas heretofore nation of scholars, scientists, thrift and in came a land of fiends and devils and a destiny.

As we calmly view the situation nine-ginning of this war to end all wars, we begin and is a Great Hoax. In 1914 Germany was France is in Germany. National hatreds, fore the war, are even worse now. France has building a huge air fleet to use in the coming flict. England knows that the French are aspirations to dominate the Continent. England in course of time, France and Germany may Then the iron of France and the coal of Germany bined. England will not be able to compete in trial combination as this.

How then will they make the people behave fought to preserve civilization, to save and protect women and children? The people to see now that wars are commercial and impure and that no matter which country wins ple of that country lose.
No beneficial results have come from the Great War they be the Russian Revolution and the awakening as who have the fighting and the suffering as the war.
The Old Order Passes
OUR papers report that a group of Negro leaders held a meeting at Atlantic City to discuss the state of the Negro cally. Most of these men were liberals. I suppose that they were also some near-librarians present and some that knew their political complexion. It seemed to be the sense of thisference that the Negro has got to do something new and ent in the field of political action. Most of us have been honest-to-goodness, hard-boiled Republicans. Now a few are beginning to look toward other parties and groups. In days we have Negro Democrats, Socialists and Communists are defeating Republicans and electing Democrats both white and black. This means that we are becoming as other men.
It will be well for the Negro political leaders to learn this matter if they care much about their prestige and ship. In 1920, Negroes, in trying to escape the fire of Wear Wilson, jumped straight into Mr. Harding's frying pan. In 1924 Negroes may feel that there is little difference between broiled and being fried.
The truth of the matter is that when it comes to close between Republicans and Democrats, Negroes may as well their ballots blind-folded. Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dan the same size and think the same thoughts.
Ford and Race Prejudice
THOUSANDS of people have come to the country Henry Ford is the proper person to make President United States. These people probably reason that man can make and sell more automobiles than any body accumulate more cash than any other man in the world, that therefore such a man would be successful ling the intricate affairs of a great government. Trying that if a man can run a private business success run a public business successfully.
If published reports about Mr. Fords business were true, Ford in the White House would, in many ways, the tion of Mr. Wilson. That is, he would have about whose minds went along with his mind. Those say that he is a stern and unyielding father and ployees must be submissive, automatic children. He and he reserves the right to change his mind wishes and those under him are expected to change.
One who is president cannot do this for resign and get as good jobs elsewhere. And worse ors. and Representatives can disagree and still Mr. Wilson found this out.

The Way to Stop Migration
THE South is doing everything in its power and out to the Negro there. That is, everything hellish and despite Yet the migration continues. The Negroes are told lies that the long freezing winters, small-pox epidemics, the bighorn of living, lack of sympathy and understanding on the part northern whites and other things that they feel will keep Negro in their midst, to be lynched and kept in poverty and ignorance.
Southerners are doing everything but what would bepected of people with good sense and sound judgment. They have not sensed the fact that Negroes now want more than back door hand out and a feather bed to sleep in.
If the South wants to keep the Negro it must abolish living and jim-crow, destroy peonage, build more and better schools and make the Negro feel that his life and property safe.

ously wrangled with the train and the sleeping car conductors, at once began to abuse me vociferously in spite of my earnest apology. I took it all calmly, at the same time racking my mind for some polite, but effective retort. As I noted the ludicrousness of his ruffled features an inspiration came to me, whereby I could bring his conduct effectively to his notice. In the room was a full length mirror, made into the stateroom door. Swinging this door around, I brought it right in front of him, where he could get a full view of his distorted features, at the same time saying with good nature, "See, sir, the mirror does a strange injustice, today." The ridicule was too much for him. He stopped immediately, then started to explode again, and apparently at a loss for words, sat down. He later proved to be one of the finest passengers I have ever served."
The two then began to exchange experiences of French life, reverting soon after to the subject of the book and its author.
"I remember the great stir created by this book when it appeared in 1905," said the passenger. "Finot has done a great service for humanity. He well merits the honor conferred on him—Officer of the Legion of Honor."
"He is called one of the makers of modern France," added Dixon. "Did you know that despite his French name, he is a Pole?"
Then, espying the twinkling lights of the town, he exclaimed, "Ah, here we are coming into Boone now."
"Goodbye," said the passanger, with genuine regret, in his voice. "I'm sorry that our acquaintance is so short. I'm stopping here only for the night and I will go on into Los Angeles tomorrow. I'd like to have you all the way."
"I'm sure you'll have a pleasant porter tomorrow," said Dixon cheerily, as he grasped the proffered hard. They had each other good-bye, and Dixon turned hastily to assist the new-coming passengers. After Dixon had assisted the new arrivals to bed he returned to the smoker and resumed his reading, but too tired to concentrate his thoughts on the scientific matter, he closed the volume, placed it behind him in the hollow of his back and the angle of the seat and began to reflect on the last passage he had read:
"The doctrine of inequality is emphatically a science of white peoples. It is they who have invenged it."
At this juncture his thoughts were interrupted by the entrance of someone. Looking up he saw a man clad in pajamas and overcoat, and with stirred foot, enter the room.
Now Dixon had taken, special notice of this man for, during the afternoon, he had been discussing the color question with another passenger in the smoker. From what Dixon had overheard, the man just entering was a Southern Senator on his way to California on business. (To Be Continued Next Week.)

Organ-Grinder Is Prisoners' Delight
Ex-Convict Never Misses Daily Visit at Jail
Every morning, Sunday excepted because a city ordinance forbids it, a middle-aged organ grinder plants his music box in front of the Cook County jail in Chicago's North Side district, and proceeds to grind out old-fashioned and modern tunes for the benefit of the eight or nine hundred prisoners confined within the stone walls of the huge structure. And thereby hangs a tale—a most peculiar one.
About 10 years ago Pietro Populossi, salesman for a small merchant in Naples, Italy, was arrested for piffering a large sum of money from his employer's small iron safe. Bank notes found in his pockets were identified by his employer as money he had deposited in his safe. Some of the bills bore grim marks of miners' fingers, and it was by this the employer knew they were the same paid to him for supplies within the week.

Soon some of the animals which exist in abundance today will be in the class with the dodo and the auk.

"Give me a caveman every time. A very strong one—one who is not afraid to express his feelings. That kind of a man is more appealing." That's what Miss Dorise C. Bonham, vice president of the sophomore class, thinks about it.
Some are a bit wary of committing themselves by reason, perhaps, of the bejeweled pins above their palpitating hearts, but a keen eye can perceive a flash of interest, a knowing look and uncontrollable smile when the word "caveman" is broached to them.
In Syracuse Hill vernacular, the caveman "goes big," and the faultlessly polite wooer who gives in to the slightest whim "is out o' luck."
Is Prisoners' Delight
Misses Daily Visit at Jail
about his release from prison and return of citizenship.
Coming to America the freed prisoner, knowing something of the earnings of his countrymen with the aid of a hand organ, resolved he would thereafter devote his remaining days to cheering the inmates of jails and prisons, with the hope that many innocent ones would for the moment forget the pangs and sorrows that had beset him in the years of servitude in his native land.
For a time he ground out his lively and sentimental music in front and behind New York's various lock-ups, and three years ago came to Chicago where he still plies his traine. Each morning, generally between 9 and 10 o'clock, Popolossi takes his regular stand in front of the Chicago jail and proceeds to grind out "Three O'Clock in the Morning"—this for the burglar's benefit possibly; "Pal, Why Don't You Answer Me?" although the never was any one's pal, criminally speaking; "Just Dreamin' of You" and other popular hits.
To all who question him as to the reason of his daily appearance at the jail—the prisoners being unable to toss him any coin—Pietro is invariably silent, but Pietro's friend the aged banana man, who also is a Neapolitan, will tell the inquirer the odd story that has been told here.
etting Scarce

clusively that no traces of these animals have appeared on the island for many years.
It has been estimated that America spends yearly $100,000,000 for fur garments, the trade of fur merchants in raw and manufactured furs for import and export trade in New York alone being about $375,000,000.
And for such a trade Billy Beaver, Tommy Marten, Jackie Skunk and Harry Muskrat—to slip into the nomenclature of bedtime stories — are not only paying with their lives, but with the threatened existence or their kind. The high prices which have been offered for their pelts have led to intensive trapping, to the clearing of woodland and to the draining of marshes. In many parts of our country beavers and marmots have been exterminated, and even Alaska is beginning to worry about the growing scarcity of fur-bearing animals within her boundaries.
The great demand for furs has led to the rapid increase of fur-afriming throughout this country and Canada. Recent reports say that there are already about 800 fox farms in Canada alone and that the owners of them are growing wealthy on their profits.
Various methods have been suggested for bringing the fur supply within the neighborhood of the demand.

The fascination of the political game never fails to attract. Mingled in the noon-day crowd in front of the city-county building, the other day, we behold Old Man Sidney Ray. My, but Sid certainly looked out of place. Rather reminded us of seeing a violet along about September.
The following telephone conversation will be all the rage in about another week:
"Well, dis is de offis of de 'QUICK & DIRTY.' Do you no dat yo name has been handed in by a friend of yo's. Yes, sir; he give you forty-'leben-million votes to start on. C'mon down, let us tell you about it."
A business or an institution that gets to the place where it needs DRIVES and CAMPAIGNS to keep it alive is very much in the same place as a pneumonia patient when the physician resorts to Oxygen—Time ain't long.
Now that the slates are out the pupil politicians can begin to figure.
Time is money to every one except the fellow who gets his time from a criminal court Judge.
The recent rate schedule of the Duquesne Light Co. informs us not to count cellar lights. Right, Brother. The moonshine in most cellars is sufficient.

COLORED WOMAN STRIPPED WHITE GIRL IN STREET
CHICAGO, Ill. Aug. 2.—An attractive, well dressed young woman darted into the street at 11:30 o'clock Friday night at 35th street and Michigan avenue, right into the path of a big oncoming high-powered roaster. Onlookers gasped, and shouted warning exclamations to avert an apparent tragedy. The young woman, with the calmness and methodical procedure of a practiced traffic cop, signaled the canary colored car to stop. The machine pulled up at the oil station curb and out hopped the tall, dark brown, silk shirt waisted, pama hatted, spectacled man, full of indignation and bluster at the unexpected interruption. His chalked face companion huddled closer in the car with fearful, pallid features, which spread a terrified anxious look as hot words flowed in an altercation between the pair on the sidewalk.
Foot and passenger traffic was halted by the angry argument going on. Several threatening motions as if to strike the woman or to draw a weapon were made by the man. Undaunted, the woman pressed her argument, which soon became a strolling affair as the pair rounded into Michigan avenue, where other threatening motions were made by the man.
The situation grew extremely tense, and prudent disposed spectators drew back. At that moment two squads of police in autos arrived on the scene of turbulance and they parted the belligerents. Suddenly a very sensational climax was staged. Darting with sudden swiftness back to the standing auto, the pretty dark brown 'complexioned girl proceeded to muss up the white woman a la perfection. In the twinkling of an eye the pale faced hussy was as innocent of clothes as was Eve when she tempted Adam.
The hasty return of the police, and frantice endeavors by the husband of the outraged brown skin beauty saved the frail white thing from being literally clawed into ribbons. A dainty silk shipper fell to the pavement, which was grabbed by an unblushing young fellow. Shreeds of tattered silk dress and an expensive cape, also streamers of white lingerie floated back to the throng of delighted onlookers—of which one was an abashed Enterprise representative—from the car as it sped east on 35th street, bearing the naked white woman.
The last act to this same performance will in all probability happen at a point on Dearborn street, between 36th and 38th streets, at an early date, and the action will be in keeping with the hot weather. Spectators come early, get in close. Opera glasses will be a happy thought of equipment.

Finds American Girl At Lowest Ebb Of Her History
NEW YORK, Aug. 2. — The American girl is at "the lowest ebb of her history," the Rev. Dr. F. H. Knubel, president of the United Lutheran Church of the United States and Canada, declared today before sailing on the Lapland for Germany. He will attend the world conference of the Lutheran Church in August.
"American girls and young women," he said, "should mend their ways, because the men despise them. They drink cocktails, smoke cigarets and altogether their conduct is shocking.
"The women are no worse than the men, but they seem so because previously they were so reserved."

NEW LONDON, Conn., July 19.—One of the largest lobsters caught in local waters in years was brought into the packing-house of Erastus Wilbur at Noak. The lobster weighed 21% pounds, and was caught by McGregor Brothers of Mystic. A few years ago one was brought in by Capt. Walter Rathbun which weighed 21 pounds. The crustacean was packed and shipped to F. C. Walcott, of New York, president of the State Fish and Game Commission.

'FOLLOW ME' CAST TO BE DIFFERENT
'FOLLOW ME' CAST TO BE DIFFERENT
Manager of Revised Show
Loud in Praises of New
Production.
According to Max Michaels, business manager, and incidentally the author of the new book, and one of the lyrics, the new edition of "Follow Me" that opens August 12 in Chicago at the Grand Theater will be a really wonderful show. The scenery and wardrobe purchased in New York last spring is testimony that becomes positively eloquent when supplemented by the list of principals that has been named.
Billy Higgins, Clifford Ross, Equest Whitman, Julian Cottello, Sylvia Mitchell, new prima donna; Valida Snow, Julian body, Elvira Johnson, Berlina Blanker, Edna Taylor, a blues singer, is the group that heads a chorus of 16 girls and eight dancing boys.
Of course Sussie Sutton and Alice Gorgas, last season's leading ladies, will be missed by many, but they are busy pioneering the southern territory for Mr. Michael's and Mr. Wein garden in the piece that made the "Follow Me" title a serious contender among the bigger theatrical productions of the race.
Julian Costello is staging the numbers. Rehearsals have been in progress for the past three weeks.
Harvey Minstrels ToBeginRehearsal Many Members Already in Chicago—To Tour Canada and United States.
The Harvey Greater Minstrels will get an early start this season. Recitals will begin about August 6 in all probability at the Grund Theater in Chicago, with considerable likelihood that the initial week's performance will be in the same house.
The tour will begin with a trip over the Butterfield circuit in Michigan into Canada, then down the eastern coast into New York and Philadelphia, playing these two cities before the holidays.
Many members of the company are now in Chicago to taking the Columbia harriers, "Slim" Austin will in all probability have the band this season and of course do his trombone speciality.
Margaret Jackson and her husband, Tom Cross, will join on August 9. Miss Jackson has been playing concert dates in and around Chattanooga since the end of last season, where she and the entire team have profited financially from her visit south.
Mr. Smith, the general manager promises some new and very striking old ones well as some other features for the greater show this season.

Fred Boxdale, writing for Will Graham for the team of Smith and Graham, sends a letter from Buffalo, Y., with the news that Graham is at 224 Broadway (rear) in that city where he was found with three bullet wounds in his body, with no clue as to how it may have happened. A. 38 caliber Smith and Wesson revolver was found in the room and with its letter addressed to Claire Smith at 328 West 59th street. New York. Two doctors are in attendance upon him under the direction of the Odd Fellows and the L. B. P. O. Elks of the World.
The Buffalo lodges of these orders according to the letter, are offering a reward for information leading to the unraveling of the matter. They want some information as to his people also.

What "Blues" Will Alberta Hunter Make Popular Now
What "Blues" Will Alberta Hunter Make Popular Now
"What will Alberta Hunter do next?" is the question thousands of music lovers are asking. The doings of this popular Paramount Record star are always interesting to the public. Her sensational rise to fame and fortune makes her a popular idol.
It is known that Miss Hunter is now at work composing the verses to some new blues songs. The new blues will be similar in many ways to "Down Hearted Blues," "Chirp'n the Blues" and "Bleeding Hearted Blues"—to mention a few of the songs for which she is known. However, Alberta promises her public some startling new stuff. Miss Hunter frequently takes trips to her recording studios, the New York Recording Studio, the New York. Her new songs, she says, will be announced on Paramount Records.
THE "BUNCH" WITH BARNES
THE "BUNCH" WITH BARNES
Late in June, the Page accompanied the outdoo, editor and the circulation man of the New York office of the Billboard on a visit to the Barnes Circus, playing a date in Jersey City. While there the Page was the especial guest of Prof. A. A. Wright and his side show band. The efforts of the whole personnel circus, from ticket wagon to supply life on the life pleasurable for the visitors, was no less courteous that the Billboard serbilers consolidated their impressions into one big story for the big summer special number.
Gratitude for the hoipitality of his own, prompts the Page to make mention of the trip here, belated though it be. For we had the time of our life with as fine a group of race artists as we have ever met. Late arrival of the show compelled the suspension of the parade, so we missed our band wagon ride that is known in emulation of Elwood Knox who originated that practice.
Big Harrison Hall took us in tow, and little Minnie Watts was our luncheon companion. She and Mabel Davenport are the entertainers with the show, and very good they are in fact, some musical comedy is being performed at the lots. We met her last season with the Harvey Minstrel Ponies. Prof. Wright certainly has an organization that he and his employers may well be proud of—and they are from what show executives told the Page.
Our companion in attendance at the big Mrs. Alma Wooden was retired from the tops, and working at the Winthrop Ames producing center in New York. We visitors had a fine evening. Another visitor was Miss Johnnie Gillette from Coney Island.
N. C. ELKS TO BUILD HOME
The Colored Elks of the state of North Carolina, under the direction of State President Zuck Alexander, and with the immediate supervision of R. McCants Andrews of Durham, propose to erect a $3,000 reformator: home for boys at a site to be selected by the state authorities. The funds are to be raised through medium of eight weeks of cultural enrichments in the principal cities of the state.
Negotiations are now in progress with several carnival enterprises to play the determined dates serially. It is entirely likely that a colored organization will be favored with the work. No matter with whom the contracts are made, Negro feature acts will be required, and Negro concessions will be accorded the preference.
The Elks will provide parades with which to open the different affairs, and in some instances will have the active support of the Musons, Shriners and the other fraternities of the different communities. Negro aviators have been determined upon as a draw feature.
HOTEL IN ST. PAUL
The Howell Hotel is the name of a new race hotel located at Kubin and Rondo streets, in St. Paul' Minn. It is close to the business and fratern' activities of the group in that city and has 16 modern rooms with all the up-to-date facilities. The hotel is Owen Howell, who is also the publisher of the Northwest-ern Bulletin, a race weekly published in St. Paul.

Abbie Mitchell Proves She Is One Of Greatest Actresses on Stage Today
Artist "Premiere" Stars in Greatest Vaudeville Bill Ever Presented at Lafayette Theater—Assisted by Will Marion Cook and Eddie Brown.
One of the greatest vaudeville bills ever offered to a colorful audience was presented at the Lafayette Theater in New York for the two weeks beginning July 23. Abbie Mitchell assisted by Will Marion Cook and Eddie Brown was the feature. Accompanied by Mr. Cook at the piano, she sang "Cocile," "Little Gal" and "Exhortation," after which she did a bit from the play "Eyes of Youth," with Eddie Brown doing the plain clothes man to him in the context of a musical act. In both elements she proved the Abbie Mitchell is really one of the great artists of the American stage.

Lyceum Tour, Idea Of Texas Magnates
Prof. Korseth B. Polk and a group of associates in Dallas, Texas, have obtained the City Auditorium in the heart of the business part of that city for the presentation of concert artists, high-chair entertainers, legends, good musical comedy productions. The promoters are undergoing to interest ten cities of the state; the really worthwhile amusement and educational attractions with a view of offering a regular leisure tour that will appeal to the better entertainment people. With the wealth among Negroes in the state and the poverty among Negroes in every other direction it is worthwhile that the thing can be accomplished. If it is, it will be the salvation of the Negro concert artist, for all these now must "wildcat" what few dates are not made under the auspices of educational institutions; and very few of those are so co-ordinated as to make possible the economies of transportation that serve to make the Negroes a major promotion should be both profitable to its originators and a distinct contribution to the advance of the race.

Find White Children In Race Hotel
一
LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Aug. 2—What is the mystery surrounding the finding of a colored woman with three white children in a colored hotel here last week?
Is the woman a nurse for a Union Pacific Railroad conductor, or is there some hidden romance which may connect the man, the woman, and the children in another 'love triangle' common nowadays?
The city is all agog over the story to the effect that the woman is being held with the three children, one a girl, 16 years old, another a boy of 12, and the third a girl of 8.
The woman declares the children are the children of a Union Pacific railway conductor in Wyoming and that he permitted her to bring them to Arkansas, that she might visit her family here. Efforts to get in with the father are being made.
He is a widow, it is alleged, and she has been the children's nurse for years.

Capitalization.
The Directors of the Standard Life Insurance Company, for instance, declared a dividend of $6.00 per share, thereby assuring a dividend payment on Standard Life stock for the year, and vetoed to double the capitalization of the Company, and to enter within the next few months nine additional States.
Makes Ready For Northern Invasion
Standard Life is now preparing
for a "northern invasion" as it is
planning to offer its policies in many
of the northern States. Hereforeto,
the company has issued a report
that issued its has confined its activities to the Southland
where the great masses of colored
people reside. President. Heman
Perry's report was a remarkable
statement of the widespread appeal
which insurance is now making to
the Southland. It was con-
firmed that for the six months ending
June 30, 1923, the admitted assets of
the company r. amount to $2,222.,
299.60, with old line legal insurance
in force amounting to $2,582,413.40.
Thirty-Five Million Dollars Of
Insurance In Force By January First Is Predicted
The Agency Force of the Standard Life Insurance Company is now organized that it will probably bring insurance in force up to $35,000,000.00 by January 1, 1921, when the annual meeting of the Board of Directors is, to be held. The income of the concern during the period of the Board is $556, $844, $184. Even claim of the company has been promptly paid, the largest of these being in the sum of $6,000.00. Standard Life Makes Slight Change In Officers. The Board of Directors of Standard Life made but slight changes in the personnel of officers. H. C. Dugas was elected First Vice-President and will relieve the President of many routine duties. W. H. King, who has so accustomed himself, becomes a Vice-President in charge of the field forces of the Insurance Company, W. F. Robbie was elected Treasurer in place of Mr. Dugas, and J. R.

In World Controlled by Colored The Citizenz Trust Company, the second of this great triangular group, is a splendid dream made real after two years of untiring service on the part of the Organization Commissioner H. H. Pemberton Chian J. A. Robinson, Secretary; T. J. Ferguson; W. H. King, H. C. Dugus. It opened its doors to the public. August 18, 1921. It has now become the largest purely financial institution in the world, and has Colored Peace in the world, and has stabilization of $500,000.00
The Service Company, the third of this great group, but in reality the controlling factor of the three business concerns, began business in 1917 as a corporation, chartered under the laws of the State of Georgia, with an authorized capital of $100,000 at that time laundry in Atlanta. In 1918 a second laundry was established in Augusta, Georgia. From an organization of $100,000.00 the Service Company has become a $5,500,000 institution. It operates as subsidiary organizations the Service Realty Company, the Service Engineering and Construction Company, Service Printing Company, Service Printing the Service Farm Bureau, the Service Foundation, Inc. and the Citizens Company, and has holdings in Standard Life Insurance Company. The Citizens Trust Company; the Pennsy Savings Bank of Augusta, Georgia, and the National Fuel Corporation, Service is today the largest corporation owned and controlled by colored people in world, and is the largest employer in the United States, and foreign countries, making thereby an international corporation that will render a distinct and much-needed service to Colored people. Prominent Members of Board Ad-
During the course of the meeting of the Boards of Directors, stirring addresses were made by various members, including President Perry Bishop R. E. Jones, of New Orleans, Louisiana; Bishop R. S. Williams, of Augusta, Georgia; Dr. Emmett J. Scott, of Washington, C. and Mr. Stevens Banking Institute, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, who was present at the special invitation of President Perry, Mr. Brown spoke most cordially of the splendid success of the Standard-Citizens-Service group of business enterprises with which he has been connected in several large business operatives. Also present as a guest at the meeting was L. A. Walton, of the New York of New York City. A booklet has just been issued by this triangular group of business institutions, a masterpiece of mechanical printing excellence, well illustrated, which has come out of the shops of the Service Printing Company, an allied subsidiary corporation. The booklet is a compilation not only of the operations of the various concerns of his business but of information illustrating the material development of the Colored people of Atlanta. It will be sent upon request to anyone desiring it.

husband also of times mentioned the names of other women, and told repeatedly of wild automobiles escapades in which wine, women and songs played leading roles.
Investigates Stories
According to an alleged statement of Mrs. Caldwell, she began to investigate the disconnected: almost unintelligible mutterings of her husband, and found them true, to a greater extent than even she had believed possible.
Her husband, it is alleged, was a frequenter of a "harem," disguised under the title of a rooming house, where several couples were wont to meet and carry on their immoral affairs. Mrs. Caldwell is alleged to have said that men and girls prominent in the city's social life were frequent visitors.
Sunday night her husband came in drunk and started to abuse his wife. Driven to desperation, the woman went to an upper floor, obtained a revolver and shot the man. It is said that the wound, while serious, is not fatal, and that the man will recover.

FEMALE TROUBLES
FEMALE TROUBLES
Pru Successful
Here is a piece of good news that will be welcomed by women the world over as these are very few who at some period of their lives are not troubled more or less with those troubles peculiar to their sex, commonly known as Female Troubles.
Many fes of the world are given high life today, held back by a trouble, which owing to its dell-cate nature, they suffer in alliance rather than consult a physician or undergo an examination.
New treatment has been discovered which from reliable information is filling a great need, many operations are now un-necessary, and the beauty of it is, this new treatment can be used by any woman in the privacy of her own life, after a small deal of time. If you are after the FEMALE-TROUBLES such as Orarian Palns, Palns in the lower part of your Stomach. Bearing-down Palns, Headache, Backache, Whites, Painful or Irregular Periods. If you have the tired error out, Nervous and run-down feeling are common to women. If you have tried ill kinds of medicines and doctors, and even though you have too little that an operation was necessary, you may be made as well as any other.
Just send your name and address to THE PELVO MEDICINE CO., MEMPHIS, TENN. today and they will send you a free booklet to bring health and happiness to so many other women.
Do You Know Mahogany If You See It?
More than sixty different kinds of lumber have at one time or another been put on the market as mahogany. Some of these are closely related botanically to true mahogany, while some have only the most genetically diverse woods with under the most liberal interpretation would entitle them to the name.
The woods now most commonly sold as mahogany in this country are true mahogany from tropical America, African mahogany and Philippine mahogany, the Cedrelas and Cedrelas of the Amazon, as mahoganies, while crabwood, sapeli, Columbian mahogany and Libervile mahogany are imported only in small quantities.
Birch and red gum are used principally as acknowledged imitations of mahogany, but sometimes they are used in furniture sold as genetically similar.
The color of true mahogany varies from very pale to very dark reddish brown. The wood is without characteristic odor or taste. True mahogany usually has interlocked grain, which gives the "ribbon" effect to quarter-sawed material. Uninterlocked grain it does not warm easily.
The pores in true mahogany are plainly visible without a hand lens as minute holes on a smoothly cut end surface, and as grooves on longitudinal surfaces. They are scattered singly or in short radial rows of wood with a dark brown gum, but less plentiful in the light colored soft grades than in the darker grades.
Rays Very Distinct
The rays on the radial surface are very distinct. On account of both rays and wood fibers the rays may appear lighter or darker than the surrounding areas, depending upon how the light is reflected. Anally we may see rays that are darker than the surrounding fibers, a characteristic which helps to distinguish mahogany from crabwood, in which the rays are considerably darker. In some pieces of mahogany the rays are in rows of stories, extending at right angles to the grain—that is, horizontal to the tangential surface as stipitions, or "ripple" marks, across the grain.
The growth rings in true mahogany are defined by light-colored concentric lines, in some pieces very close together, in and others one-half inch or more apart, with considerable variations in the same piece.

Sullivan was a mess sergeant at the United States Arsenal. He has been in the service more than 20 years, and served over seas during the war. Mrs. Sullivan is at Penstraw, N. J. For the last ninety years the Sullivan had been assigned to duty at the boy camp there. Mrs. Sullivan had been camped there.
