Pittsburgh Courier

The Courier Ticket The Pittsburgh Courier has published its ticket for the recommendation that the voters take it in the voting on election day as a safe guide as to how Negroes cast their vote. This is done because the average voter is busy trying to make bread and butter for his family has no time to listen to a lot of empty pledges and makes made by the men who are seeking office at the ex-age of the busy public. The Courier has made an exhaustive study of both facets of the men they are putting before the public, and is ready to offer a ticket which any self-respecting Negro vote without doing violence or injury to himself or to his wife. The Courier heads its ticket with the names of two who are true and accepted types of Americanism. They: Samuel H. Gardner District Attorney and Daniel Winters For City Council We offer the following for City Council: Robert J. Alderdice and Charles Anderson These men deserve the vote of the whole populace, and we predict they will get it "to a man." Next in importance, are suitable men to help these two community leaders enforce law and order for the benefit of the lowest as well as the highest.

He will give us something, and it will be more than we have now. Mackrell has no special dislike for Negroes, and his opponent, Mr. Johns, is said to have had some occasion to dislike Negroes. We are afraid to chance our vote. We prefer Mackrell, whom we know to be right on our question. For Prothonotary, there need be no selection made. Mr. John Vogt could not be beaten by any combination. He is just a plain man with plain and simple convictions for what is just and fair. The Recorder of Deeds is John Graham. This man has shown us.

Hundr LOVE CITIZENS BUY FIREARMS TO STOP 'CRANKS' Threatening Letter Sent to Owner of Small Store Causes Hegira — South Bend Excited. SOUTH BEND, Ind, Sept. 12— This otherwise peaceful watch-making city has been thrown into confusion. Both colored and white residents have been seriously aroused over an incident which, if not properly handled, it has scened the scenes of the Chicago, East St. Louis and Washington riots. According to reports, between 1,000 and 1,500 people have left the city in the last 24 hours. This stampede resulted following the recent threatening letter in the community here. Although no violence has followed, many felt that they were in danger, and, accordingly, the wholesale exodus was precipitated with dispatch. Police picture little evidence in the letter, which came to the proprietor of a local soft drink place, and said they were inclined to believe it the work of a crank. Considerable excitement reigned in different sections and environs Tuesday night. The colored populace, which stood their, ground, began to purchase ammunition and arms and continued reports having murdered him, manhunters were attempting to obtain weapons. The real source of the letter has not been revealed, although it is rumored that certain sinister individuals have had an influence in Indiana have undoubtedly contributed to the unwholesome stir which caused to some fly away and others to fly to arms. The police were detailed, but no unattempted incident was reported.

BARED RUMORS ALLEGE THAT "DREAM GIRL" CAUSED LEETSDALE KILLING Ten-Year-Old Girl Victim of Bullet Fired by Sweetheart of Older Sister. "An Accident," Says Family. LEETSDALE, Pa., Sept. 13. Ten-year-old Mary Green has gone the way of "Laughing Water," a bitter sacrifice to the hot-blooded jealousy of Joe Smith, a nineteen-year-old, tall, red-headed youth, who fatally wounded the girl when he shot at her seventeen-year-old sister, Cornelia, with whom he was in love. All sorts of rumors are travelling the rounds of our village, which a dark-skinned Italian looms as the ardent suitor and rival for the heart of his "dream girl." The fatal shot was fired Saturday afternoon from the window of the girl's home, where Smith was calling. After a quarrel, she left the house, said, little Mary aiming at her soldier, little Mary aiming at play in the yard. It is also alleged that Smith was aiming at the Italian Miss Cornelia, the attractive girl, and alleged cause of the shooting, tells a different story. She stated to a representative of The Pittsburgh Courier that Green was intoxicated and killed her in a fatal day. She said they quarrelled and that she left the room, going across the ya'l to her aunt's residence, directly in front. She says she went around to the front and asked her aunt to mediate she heard the fatal shot. Her family supports the claim that the shooting was accidental, and that they would not prosecute Smith. Smith is from Kentucky. After the shooting, she and surrendered to local officers. In the meantime, there is wild-fire rumors to the effect that the Italian in question has been a friend of the family and that on numerous occasions she seen with the girl and members of her family in his touring car.

THE RUSSIAN CZAR OF JOHNSTOWN By CHANDLER OWEN Editor, Messenger Magazine Who is Joseph Cauffiel? Who is this petty Warrior, always known as Mayor of Johnstown, Pennsylvania? What does he mean by pettinguating the cast-off rags of old Russia? Most of our readers never heard of him. Neither had we until his recent drastic order growing out of the Rosedo mole moles. Negroes shot and killed two white officers. You know anything about the Rosedale affair? Well, let us tell you. The "white" papers report that a riot call went out for the police. Several automobiles loaded with firearms were policemen responded. One Negro, the report reads, was crushed with moonshine liquor; yet about 12 Negroes were barricaded in a building from which they veritably arm-bushed the police so soon as their shirts were removed. The shot before they alighted. The first quarerized Negro was shot and killed. Remember, this is the report of the white papers. WE DO NOT BLIEVE IT. There's a screw hole somewhere. We had hoped the little paper would have despatched the police to ten the real truth. It is preposterous that thirty Negroes would hold in hiding and fire instantly upon policemen because they were coming to arrest a drunken Negro. - Drunken Negroes, as well as whites, are arrested. The only thing which might arouse sentiment would be under brutalization of the man arrested. For these new Negroes of today's better lie must be told. And no man acquainted with evidence at all court might easily be HANGED to death by analysis. Mayor Caufield has stated, "I want every Negro who has lived here less than seven years, to pack up his belongings and get away. He added that I wanted the removal "carried out at once." He has also announced that; until further orders, Negroes living in Johnstown are prohibited from holding public gatherings and to assemble except for church. Such social functions as picnics, public and private dances and similar assemblages will not be permitted, the mayor declares. Mayor Canauf, in addition to his order for newly-arrived Negroes here to "clear out," and his ban on future importations of Negro workers, announced immediate steps to compel Mary Livingdenstown in the future to depart. Mary will be allowed to leave Johnstown beyond a doubt that her job is a law-abiding citizen, the mayor said. Negroes visiting in Johnstown also will be required to report their whereabouts and to give a complete record of their business or social activities while waiting for recording to the mayor, will tend to keep the undesirable class of Negroes from visiting here. In addition to calling upon the citizens of Johnstown to help carry out his plans, Mayor Camille, including his orders last night, requested abiding native Negroes of Johnstown to assist him in clearing out the riff-raff, undesirable element. The mayor said that the native Negroes of Johnstown have given very little trouble, that they have respect for them, and that he was found them in general to be law-abiding citizens. In asking for their aid and co-operation in driving out the criminally-inclined class of Negroes Mayor Caufield predicted that the native Negroes of the city were back to stand. Now a lord to the Negroes of Johnstown. First, you don't have to go anywhere and no Negro with a spark of manhood, a scintilla of courage or an iota of brains is going to leave. It makes no difference whether you have been to Johnstown seven years, seven months, seven hours, your rights to remain equal with those who have been there seventy years. Second, hold your public and private dances and picnics when you get ready. Unless you are using a microwave, you must get a permit, go ahead with functions just as you, would go to your breakfast, lunch or dinner. If disturbed unlawfully—and such prohibitions as the mayor would impose, are unlawful—then remember to visit Johnstown, Pa., in the future need NOT register NOR report to either the mayor or the chief of police. You need not prove to any body that you are a citizen. (The presumption is that you are a law abiding citizen till the contrary appears). Never report to anyone but your family or friends your whereabouts or a record of your visit. (The presumption is that it is "obscure" business what you do" unless you do something unful. If you desire to go to Johnstown to work, go ahead! If you desire to go to Johnstown to visit friends, go ahead! If you don't know a soul in Johnstown and would like to visit the city just to look around, go ahead! We know just what the law is and what the rights of the Negroes are and we propose to advise them and encourage them to utilize even right. The idea that a little peasant politician mayor of a Pennsylvania town can issue edicts and laws like a czar for Negroes to obey—is tommyrot.

Modern Sheik Stabbed by Unmarried Woman Who Tired of Abuse and Mistreatment — Held for Murder. BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 13. — Crazed with jealousy because her paramour told her of his prowess with other women, Mrs. Matilda Chinn, 510 Einst street, raised a dagger and plunged it into his heart as he lay beside her early Sunday morning. Then, as the spirit of revenge that drove her to the rash act melted into remorse and sorrow she cavally tried to unlo the deed by washing every trace of blood both from his nude form and the death chamber until her nerves failed her and she staggered to the door of Clarence Ringgold and told him that she "had gotten Dave." Admits Killing Although at first Mrs. Chian made an effort to cover up her crime when the police arrived she stated coolly that she had killed her man. Handing him a small six-inch paring knife which she used as a dagger and from which all traces of blood had been washed she told the officer that she did it.

When Ringgold reached the room she had taken the pink-striped pajamas through which she plunged the knife into the body of the supposed sleeping man and folded them at the foot of the bed. Despite the fact that Scott must have bled profusely from additional stab wounds in his shoulder and hip, she had washed all blood away and the officers found the man lying nude on the bed. Neighbors Heard Nothing At a coroner's hearing Wednesday night Clarence Ringgold and his common-law wife, Miss Isabella Blair, both testified that they heard no struggle or indication of the tragedy until Mrs. Chinn rapped on their door. They thought she had merely knocked the man out until examination showed the knife wound over the heart. That the aim of Mrs. Chinn was accurate was shown by the post-mortem examination of Dr. Malies, which revealed that a narrow straight thrust had pierced the right ventricle of the heart. In her rage she also thrust the knife into his shoulder and hip. Testimony Details Morbid The statement of women at the hearing indicates that the principals in the tragedy represent the dregs of human existence. The name of Miss Daisy. Marshall was also brought into the story as the other woman in the case. It was testified that Scott used both of these women to make a livelihood for him, setting the price of his favor the one with brought him the larger of the money. It was testified that he resorted to flogging when the amounts brought in did not meet his approval. Mrs. Chinn stated to the officers who arrested her that he often beat her, and witnesses stated that he had struck her earlier in the night when she failed to bring him money. At the Coroner's hearing she broke down in tears in an effort to make a statement and left the stand with her story untold. With tears streaming down her cheeks and her face furrowed by many lines that indicated that she had practically burnt her life to ashes she stated that she was too worried and nervous to talk and left the stand. Scott, a well developed young man of 32 years, was younger than the woman who slew him by 17 years, and was well-known in sporting circles. GOOD HEALTH! GOOD LUCK! PROSPERITY!

PARIS, Sept. 13. — The English maanger, H. Fenston, who stands to lose $40,000 by the banning of "The Birth of a Nation" in France, this afternoon called at the Foreign Office to ask if the political objections on which the police acted could not be met, by radical cuts in the picture. The principal scenes objected to are believed to be the court scene, where Negroes place their bare feet on the tables and the scenes showing the pursuit of a white girl by a black man. The promoters are ready to delete all offending incidents, in order to set out on their 3,000,000-franc tour. The film was shown at Deauville for the ban had not reached there yet. But Premier Poincaré has personally banned the film on the strength of a law passed in the second year of the French Revolution, on Aug. 6, 1790, which gives the Government power to veto all spectacles calculated to disturb public order. This action must be read in connection with the Premier's recent decrees directed against Americans who object to the presence of Negroes in public resorts. He is being pressed on his present course by Negro deputies and by fear of losing their support in the Algerian elections. Neither can France afford militarily to affront her North African citizens. But more than one Paris newspaper tonight asks what is the good of a film censorship, anyway, if the Government interferes? "The Birth of a Nation" was passed by the censor with a few minor reservations. The police actually declare in one quarter that the scene showing the assassination of Lincoln might spur some French Booth to kill M. Poincare.

The difficult thing for him to comprehend is that the Negro has at last learned to marshal forces and fight, too. This incident has proven that truth and one other. There is a division in sentiment on the Negro here in Dixie. Among the best efforts put forward in this matter have been those of the inter-racial committee and the liberal white element of the South. And even the rabid south knows when it is beat. As Senator Underwood told the committee which waited on him in Montgomery, he he addressed the State legislature in July, "Gentlemen, you are wrong in this hospital matter. You have no case. This man Moton has got you in a hole and you're bound to lose. Furthermore, the best white people of the South are with him." Race Millionaire Backs Up Business Enterprise In West Citizens.Form Corporation Owned and Controlled by Group—Proves Success. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Sept. 13. (By A. N. P.)—You can't keep a good man down," nor a good race. That strikes the keynote that has been responsible for the success of the Peoples' Ice & Fuel Co., in this city. It is the outgrowth of white prejudice and unfair business methods on the part of whites. This city has been peculiar in that for a number of years Negroes retailed practically all the ice, made in this city. There is a long, dry spell here which makes the ice business peculiarly profitable. The whites were doing all the manufacturing. Eventually, they become concerned over the Negro retail business. They drew the line. One Negro who was operating ten wagons for his trade, found that he could not get any ice. Others met with the same difficulty. White retailers sprang up. The Negroes would drive their wagons up for a supply and would be kept waiting all day; while the whites, the new retailers, came and went, their wagons loaded to the brim. It took a Negro preacher to solve the problem, the Rev. R. M. Caver, pastor of Mount Zion Baptist Church. Rev. Caver told his people to make their own ice. The idea sounded good. Backing was received from D. H. Raines, an oil millionaire, Negro, with holdings in Louisiana and residence in Hot Springs. Raines became president of the company to manufacture ice, and Caver, secretary. The result is their present modern plant, capable of turning out ice of ice each day, located in the manufacturing district of the city, with their own spur to the railroad. They now have a demand in excess of "their supply. All the stock of the People's ice & Fuel Co., is paid in and earning dividends. The Negro company has found that it cannot only sell ice to Negroes, but the Negro retailers, who had white trade previous to Jim Crow action, are the retailers among the white stay with them. What everybody seems to want is good ice, promptly delivered. ```markdown ``` Daring Bessie Coleman, daring race aviatrix, who was injured during a flight last Spring has resumed her soaring among the clouds.

Va., was killed Thursday by Policeman James Degman of the North Side Police station. Hall had been searching for a Miss Sophia Brown of 820 Moravian St., a visitor at the home of Mrs. Anna Johnson. Mrs. Johnson says that Hall came to her home and asked for Miss Brown. She told him that she was not there and had not been there during the evening. Hall did not believe that Miss Brown was not there and threatened Mrs. Johnson who called the Northside station and Policeman Degman arrested Hall. Policeman Degman, says that as they neared the gate in the Alley Way, Hall broke away and ran, a second later the Negro drew a revolver and fired four shots. Degman fired two shots and Hall dropped to the Street. Hall was taken to the Allegheny General Hospital where it was found that one bullet had pierced his heart and the other went through the left temple. Upon being questioned by Commissioner Kane, Mrs. Johnson and Miss Brown were turned over to the coroner. Policeman Degman later making a state statement, he was later released on his own recognition. The shooting took place in a dark alley in the rear of Mrs. Johnson's home. At the hospital two revolvers were found in Hall's clothing by the authorities. One of the revolvers was fully loaded and the other one had four empty sheels. James and Bertha Sullivan of Clark Street, were arrested on complaint that they were living as man and wife and not married. After a hearing in the Morals Court they confessed to the social worker that they were not married, but perfectly willing to get married. After talking with the judge he decided to turn the couple over to the worker provided she see that the couple married. The worker took the couple to her office where she discovered that the couple did not have any money with which to purchase a marriage license. The man thought he could borrow the money.

A Sheath Gown Big Bertha of the Hill District was hailed before Judge Richards of the Morals Court again this week, when the Bertha is a frequent visitor to the house of running a disorderly house. One officer went to the back door and the Lieutenant to the front door, when they knocked for admittance it seems that Bertha had been tipped off as to who they were and before they were admitted her visitors, three men and three women, wett ant heard the driver say that he arrested in the back yard and the women were caught as they tried to get the driver to answer. One of the women cut her arm in getting through the window. All posted forfeits of Thirty dollars each for a hearing. While the officers were looking the house to be sure that all visitors were gone, an automobile with four men, white, drove up. The Lieutenant heard the driver say that he must not stop in front of the house, so while he drove to a safe place to park his car, the Lieutenant closed the door and awaited results. The four came to the door and rang the bell, they were admitted by the Lieutenant who placed them under arrest. At the hearing the officer said that one of the women visitors was dressed in a blue silk kimona. Bertha interrupted to tell the judge that the lady did not have on a kimona. It was a sheath gown, judge, she had no known anything about the fashions, why I have a dress that opens down the front and I suppose he would call that a kimona." Judge, it is a sheath gown. None of the six visitors who were in the house when the officers swooped down on them appeared. The four admitted by the Lieutenant were in court and they said they were from Moon Run and had come to the city for a night of sport.

Mob Binds Pastor To Railway Track After Church Fire Mob Binds Pastor To Railway Track After Church Fire WALDRON, Ind., Sept. 13. — Police were investigating Thursday night an apparent attempt to murder the Rev. U. S. Johnson, a Baptist minister, who was found tied hand and foot to a rail of interurban car tracks. The Rev. Mr. Johnson declared that he was seized by a mob, bound and then tied to the track. He could not identify any member of the mob. When the crew of an interurban car found him, he had wriggled off the track, but was still tied to the rail. The attack is believed to have been an outgrowth of recent charges of arson against the clergyman in connection with the burning of his church. K. K. K. DECIDES I WONT TAKE OVER VALPARIASO U.

Mrs. Langer says she was deceived by promises of her husband an orthodox jew, that his family would not object to her because she was a Baptist and that after they were married. Langer never took her to the home of his parents and never allowed her to meet his father and mother, who died after the marriage, three sisters, two of whom are married, and an unmarried brother. The marriage was performed by the Rev. W. P. Hayes, pastor of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church. She was an inexperienced girl 25 years of age, and her husband told her he was the same age, she says, but she later learned he was 37. After they were married two weeks, Mrs. Langer says she asked her husband to take her to meet his family several times, but he refused saying his family would not recognize a Christian and would never receive her into an orthodox Jewish household. Shortly thereafter she declares they separated, and have not lived together since, while Langer went to live with his parents. Langer has not filed an answer to the complaint. Nothing in the complaint discloses whether the Langer family objected to his amrriage because of the color question.

THE PITTSBURGH COURIER French Girl's Beau Flayed By Purity Mob Texas Mob Pleads "Race Purity" As Excuse for Nearly Killing Victim Associating With White Girl. TEMPLE, Tex., Sept. 13.—Harry J. Brown, 23, fine looking, very dark complected colored man, has for a long time been the darling objects of the affections of Miss Josephine Monaleaux, 20, a beautiful French girl, reports said. She is spending 18 months here gather information in a certain line of culture for one of the biggest syndicates in France. Brown has been in the French girl's employ for the seven months that she has been in America. The girl is very beautiful, accomplished and vivacious. She is reported to be a great heiress. Miss Monaleaux has been cold and indifferent to the attentions of the white boys, and at the same time she showed marked preference for the society of her colored employees to such an extent that the whole county became wrathful, and serious threats were made against Brown. Last Wednesday night a band of masked citizens dragged Brown from the auto, which he was driving. They tied him to a tree, then, while several men detained the girl in the car, Brown's clothes from the waist up were torn off. Miss Monaleaux was forced to watch as first one and then another of the mob members took turns in whipping Brown with horsewhips until his back was one mass of welts, cuts and lacerations, and he was rendered senseless. After 20 minutes of the brutal beating the mob disappeared. The French girl succeeded in getting Brown into the car, then she sped back to town with the auto, and an hour elapsed before medical assistance for the wounded man was obtained. Miss Monaleaux received a letter on Monday; which stated "race purity" will be maintained always. Another letter to Brown warned him "to get away from here at once." The man was said to have been warned to leave town several days ago, and when the attack was made on him Wednesday and feeling against him appeared to be running high, officers declined to promise him protection. Their rest, 141 W. High street, is always open to all traveling Elks, as well as their escorts. We were highly entertained by the following brothers: Adam Myers, Alfred Palm, Ralph Miller, Clayton Moxley, Howard Thomas and Raymond Adams. We were shown the picture of the aged women and children that they entertained every Christmas with a dinner, free to all. Speaking of the dinner, our old friend, Adam Myers, stated that there are always a numLodge No. 145, I. B. P. O. E. of W., be rof people that were unfortunate enough to have a turkey feast on Christmas, so we provided for both women and children as our guests for that day—thus exemplifying the spirit of Elkdom. This should be read by every Elk, and instead of always looking for the coin of the realm to come our way, we should emulate our brothers of the Battle City. Committee is as follows: Rev. J. J. Robinson and R. H. Thomas, chairman, and Clayton Mozley. William H. Banks, who was chairman of the reception committee during the encampment in New York, is our old Pittsburgh. He was chef for McCarthy's and several other cafes. His father was at one time a policeman here. His sister, Mrs. Fannie Scott, well known, fraternally, is an active Woodman of this city, and Walter Banks, a brother, live here in the East End. Thomas Moss, an old Pittsburgh boy, lives on 143d street, and Chas. Wilson, Ex-First Lieutenant of Pride of West Co., K. of P., lives at 2166 Madison, avenue, and it was the headquarters for all Sir Knights that he had his good wife meet. Ask Col. A. J. Lewis, Col. J. H. Cook, Capt. Tom Bruce and other Sir Knights. Everything was splendid. I was quite sorry to miss my good friend, J. A. Jackson, of the Bill Board, but owing to auto trouble after arriving in the big city, everything was blank. However, we will meet again some day as we met in Newark, N. J., last year. The Misses Dorsey, of 180th St. New York, entertained for her mother, Mrs. Dorsey, of Baltimore, and her uncle, Col. J. H. Cook, Col. A. J. Lewis, Col. A. B. Rice, Sr., and A. B.

Tomatoes are the richest of all foods in vitamins. 2. Tomatoes are the most wonderful and effective blood cleanser of all foods known to man. 3. Tomatoes are the richest of all vegetables in the natural health acids which keep our stomachs and intestines in condition. 4. Tomatoes are the most extraordinary corrective for the kidneys (the latter call a diuretic), a gentle, natural stimulant which helps wash away the poisons which cause disease and contaminate our systems? 5. Tomatoes, are now prescribed for diabetes and Bright's disease? 6. Tomatoes are the most easily and quickly digestible of all the fruits and vegetables known to man. Tomatoes pass through the stomach almost at once, and their rich natural elements are taken up into the system with a rapidity that is in striking contrast to the digestibility of other foods?

CARD OF THANKS Mr. and Mrs. A. P. Mason wish to extend thanks to friends for sympathy tendered in their recent bereavement. Don't Play You After 10 O'C It is the well enforced rule in some city apartment houses that piano playing and other music, including the playing of phonographs, shall all stop promptly at 10 o'clock. Sometimes this is even designated in the lease. It would be a blessing if there were some such neighborhood agreement as to the suspension of musical activities after some such hour. This land of ours is and ought to be run for the interest and advantages of the people who work, and it is assumed that the majority of folk work in the daytime and therefore have to get their sleep at night. Even in cities—the are comparatively few persons who habitually retire at a late bedtime. Morning newspaper.workers, bakers, night watchmen, actor folk and a few other people are legitimately night-hawks, but most of us have to go to bed fairly early. There is a fond delusion among country folk that city folk as a class rise late and retire never before midnight, that cities are never more alive than at night, and that Clubs Sadie Mossell Says Women Making Great Progress Sadie Tanner Mossell, a young colored woman, is the editor of The Radiator, a bi-monthly Negro insurance magazine published in Durham, N. C. The other staff officials are four men. In an article, Miss Mossell writes: "Progress in the Economic Freedom of women is always dated historically from the Industrial Revolution of the nineteenth century, but women's true entry into the business world as an integral part of its life can be dated only from the World War." But what about the women of our race? As we all know, only too wall, the improbable line, line shut to colored women even war emergency business opportunities in the United States. Of course, they were promoted from chare women to waitresses and actually installed as operators in some of the factories of the North and a few of the hosiery mills of the South. But none of the executive positions were opened to them. Prior, however, to the Great War, Negro women had made certain business openings in the South. The men, Mrs. Minnie Cox, a graduate of Fikl University, the postmistress of Indianola, Miss, whom Roosevelt maintained on the salary schedule even after he had to order the Post Office closed, who today is largely directing the activities of the Penny Delta Bank of Indianola, acting as Secretary-Treasurer of the Mississippi ur Phonograph Clock At Night no one ever thinks about going to bed till folk on the farm would be grinding coffee for tomorrow's breakfast. Well, there are, of course, sections of the cities where late hours are kept. Theatrical sections are among these, but city folk for the most part go to the theater only occasionally and throughout the great majority of residential sections there is no such thing as the gay night life that the country man or woman dreams of. So the person who if selfish enough to keep others awake after most persons' normal bedtime is acting in an unusual way—that is he is acting to the disadvantage of the community. To be sure, the neighborhood you live in will forgive you for, and will be deeply interested in, an occasional transgression. If you have a dance now and then you need not keep the 10 o'clock silence regulation. But as a general thing you will be acting in a better-bred manner if you close the palno and let the phonograph run down after that time.

Then we should recall Mrs. Aaron Malone of St. Louis, a graduate of Kittrell College and Wilberforce University, who organized, developed and now directs, with the aid of her husband, Poro College, a million dollar corporation. Nor can we overlook the remarkable institution built by the late Madame C. J. Walker. In addition to these activities fostered and developed by women, we had such organizations as the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company and the Guaranty Mutual Life Insurance Company of Savannah, Georgia, employing women for the important posts of Cashier, Mrs. Bessie Johnson Whittied, Cashier of the North Carolina Mutual, has for seventeen years handled every cent of the millions of dollars that pass through the control of that company, Mrs. Jimmie Bugg Middleton, a graduate of Howard University, has for a considerably shorter period received and recorded the cash funds of the Guaranty Mutual. Moreover, long before the Great War, men with the control of millins of dollars, such as C. C. Spaulding of the North Carolina Mutual, Herman E. Perry of the Standard Life and E. C. Brown of the firm of Brown and Stevens, bankers, depended upon women to fill the important positions of private secretaries and departmental heads. These men found women to be efficient willing and capable workers. Besides, the fact must not be overlooked that a woman of equal training and ability of a man, (that these men continue to employ women is conclusive proof of this statement) can be obtained at a lower wage, for it is presumed, justly or falsely, that a woman does not have responsibility for forever, women (when they like to hear, or not) will more readily than can recognize authority and accept instruction, out of the home if not in it. They are less likely to seek to undermine the established position of a man. So that in consideration of the efficient services that women render at a cost which is less in dollars and in the moral hazard of being undermined. Negro business were convinced of the efficacy of using women in their enterprises long before the war. The war had, therefore, but to open larger economic development among graduates and the women of to work in such institutions, thereby created, was assured. This the war did. The assets of the North Carolina Mutual have tripped since 1917, while those of the Standard Life have more than quarrupled.

(Prospective and Retrospective) Wills Attitude Towards a Dempsey Suit Harry Wills, persistent challenger of Champion Jack Dempsey, whose attcinpt 1o stop the Dempsey-Firpo fight has aroused even more than the ordinary amount of comment, forms a marked contrast to Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion of the world, and other “old-timers,” who fought their way to anything they wanted. : Wills persistent attitude has not met with the approval of a number of close followers of the fizht; the majority of whom blame Paddy Mul- Tins, easygoing and of the old school, for Wills’ seeming inability to’ meet Dempsey. All the world loves s fighter, and had Mullins chosen to have had Wills FIGHT his way to Dempsey, instead of trying to TALK his way into a title Gght, the result, doubtless, would have been different. There is no denying the fact that Wills DESERVES the fnatch, but his claims might receive more consideration were he to employ Johnson's methods. Johnson followed Tommy Burns all over Europe and finally met up with him in Australia, The result of that victory at Sydney, N. S. W., on December 25, 1908, when the police interfered in the fourteenth round, will never be forgotten.

Oscar Moore, the aA’s latest addition to, the pitching staf, ‘opposed the veteran Drake on, the’ mound in the first game, but lasted only two-third innings. After the first two batters had been ratired, singles by Johnson, MeNair, and Joseph and a double by W Moore followed in rapid succes- ion, good for a total of three runs. Corbett took up the hurling task for Indianapolis and held Kansas City at bay until the sixth inning and practically lost his own game Ey er- ratic fielding of bunts, thé Monarchs Iscorig six rans inthis inning ona hit batsman, two errors by Corbett, three singles and a double. ‘The second game, supposed to be called at the end of the seventh in- ning, went the full nine innings as the teams were deadlocked at <hree runs at the completion of-the seven innings. ‘The gr me itself was a hurling duel between two: veterans, Mendez for Kanas City and Dismukes for Indi- anapolis. Dismukes, who defeated the Mon- archs on Friday, allowing six, hits allowed five scattered hits in today’s game, while Mendee yielded nine. Indianapolis got off to a one run lead in the second inning when Blackmon Singied and scored from first base on Josephs three-base ‘wild throw on Washington's rap. Kansas City tied the score in their half of the third on Anderson's single and Duncan's three-base hit to right field which Corbett lost in the sun. Kansas City went ahead with one ron in the fourth on McNair's double to left and an error by Charleston, Indiana- |polis went into the lead again in the seventh on-singles by Dismukes and Holloway and Day's triple, but the Monarchs came back,and tied the seore in their half on Day's error, Charleton’s error and a, single by Rogan, weho-was pinch hitting for Anderson.

OH, WAS THAT YOU YELLIN'? I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST SOMEBODY I HAD RUN OVER!! Winner Obtains Leg On Mme.C.J.Walker Cup; Play Brilliant (Special to the Pittsburgh Courier) By Harry R. Farley INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Sept. 18.—The tournament conducted by the Indianapolis Racquet club for the city championship came to a finish last Friday, after being delayed by rain and the semi-finalists and finalists participating in the National at Chicago. B. H. Hawkins emerged victor as was doped out. He defeated the brilliant young player, Robt. Marbury, in a thrilling four set match, the score being 6-4, 6-3, 6-8, 6-3. Marbury played splendid tennis, but the dashing net play and placements of Hawkins was too much for him. At times both players advanced to the net and some spectacular volleying by both was to be seen. By Marbury winning the third set and playing well in the fourth, it was thought he would make some back. But, to the contrary, Hawkins tightened up and the fourth set, which decided the match in his favor. By defeating Marbury, Hawkins wins a leg on the Mime. C. J. Walker cup, the first leg being won last year by Edgar G. Brown, National champion. Much interest was displayed by both fans and players throughout the tourney. Many afternoons finding the side lines of the courts crowded with enthusiastic onlookers. Excellent tennis was played during the whole tournament. Marbury drew a bye in the first round and defeated W. W. Downs in the second. Jesse Martin's victory over J. R. Hampton was very decisive, but he came to defeat at the hands of W. Holloway in the second round. Matthews Bass won a hard fight from Henderson and went back by default of J. F. Johnson. Dr. Matthews Robt. Duncan, two risks of the former tourney, drew Bass the first round and thereby met in the second. Duncan, who defeated Matthews in the other meet, went down under. Dr. Matthew's dashing play. Dr. Cable and S. H. Grizzle met in the second round, each drawing a bye in the first. Dr. Cable decisively won the match. Earnest Brown, by drawing a bye in the first round, met defeat at the hands of the dynamic player; Oscar Smith, Smith having defeated Wm. H. Rankin in the first round.

Hawkins won a clean-eut victory from John Edenel, both having drawn a bye in the first round. In the third round, play. Holloway was conquered by the brilliant playing of Marbury. Marbury medr Dr. Matthews in the semi-finals after Dr. Matthews won from A. Bass. Bass, a young player who shows much promise, took Matthews "into a three set match. Smith defeated Dr. Cable in the third, but met his downfall when Hawkins, who won from Taylor defeated him in one of the most thrilling dazzling matches of the meet. At the outset of the match, Smith was playing at form, while struggle Hawkins took the first set to Smith. Smith winning 9-7. Hawkins was determined to win. He made a spectacular.comeback, taking the match at a score 7-9, 6-2, 6-1. 6-1. Hawkins' terrific attack in the last three sets was too much for the "diminutive" Smith, who had expended most of his energy in winning the first set. But Smith must be commended for his dynamic playing and "never-give-up" spirit, which was manifested very often when the odds were against him. It is to be regretted that Dr. Matthews defaulted to Robt. Marbury in the semi-finals. A brilliant match was anticipated because they are about an evenly balanced pair. In the doubles there were eight teams entered. Edelen and Woodruff were defeated by Smith and Holloway. After a hard fight Smith and Holloway went down under the attack of Hawkins and Matthews, after they conquered Grizzle and Martin. Taylor and Cable, who won from Downs and Rankin by default, in turn defaulted the semi-finals to the team of Marbury and Batties, who defeated the old team of Brown and Duncan. Hawkins and Matthews met Marbury and Batties in the finals, and not a dull moment was there throughout the entire match. Marbury and Batties triumphed, after a four set match. It was thrilling to see Marbury and Batties defy their opponents by both advancing to the net together. Hawkins and Matthews also being good net men; some very beautiful volleying ensued. Lobbing was also an outstanding feature of both teams. The winning score of Marbury and Batties was 6-3, 6-4, 4-6, 6-3. Art Stigall to Mete Young Nixon in Ohio DAYTON, O., Sept. 13. —Dayton fight fans will have a chance to witness the first all-around boxing exhibition of colored scrappers this week at McCabe's, when Art Stigall, local favorite, will swap blows with Young Nixon, of Washington, Pa. Nixon and Stigall have met in previous embagements. Both encounters ended in draws. 'This fact is sufficient to signify that a lively exhibition will be seen when these two favorites meet, one representing the East and the other representing the West. Stigall is playing, safe and has instituted a stiff training grind. The main bout between these two contenders is scheduled for eight rounds. All told, 32 rounds of knuckle mingling and first-kissing has been slated. Chuck Mason, of Dayton, and Young Gillam, of Springfield, will try to settle a tough argument of long standing when they face each other. Last Sunday the Liberty Homing Club flew their first race of the season from Coshocton, O., a distance of 100 miles airline. Although the weather was cloudy, the feathered contestants fought their way back to their home lofts without serious difficulty.

Barney, a neat silver cock from the same loft, took second place. Jack B., another gray colored checked cock flying to the loft of Herbert Holmes, took third place.

As many as four young men were said to have been forced by the police to support the administration ticket. This is one kind of force. Another specimen comes in form of advising employees of the city to "vote right" or quit. Who has the right to say when any man or woman is voting "right?" Every person has the right to vote as he or she pleases and any attempt to coerce or frighten any employee against the principles of civilized government. A striking example of force is the reported attempt of the "bosses" to force the city firemen to line up for a certain ticket. The firemen are not the kind to be bluffed. They will stand by their sober judgment and vote their own convictions. Popular respect is lost by any faction that tries to threaten any employee with a loss of his or her bread and butter. Such threats only enrage independent thinkers, and set them against the threatening powers. The new day politics means a complete reversal of custom. The politicians must obey the will of the people rather than the people submit to the will of a few politicians. Force will do nothing toward securing votes in the present campaign. Men and not factions will win at the polls, and no amount of mud-slinging or threats will drive the voters from their convictions. Good men are wanted in office, and only good men need expect support from the people. Japan No Longer a Peril THERE is a far reaching significance attached to the recent horror visited upon Japan by the unusual quake with its attendant fire, famine and tidal wave. The loss Japan will sustain does not command attention just now because the relief work is absorbing world attention. But Japan, even in tears, knows better than all the world that her day as a world power has been darkened, and her future very much narrowed and limited. She has been set back 50 years by the disaster which now engulfs her people and her territory. If the United States ever really feared Japan as the Yellow Peril so often described, that fear is now abandoned. It is a self evident truth that Japan will not be a peril to any nation for many years to come. Whatever she intended to do in the form of war preparation has been crushed out of her every thought by the horrors now upon her. She will require every dollar of her own, and all she can borrow to rebuild and re-establish her cities and her various institutions. She will have no time for war or war programs for many years. That the United States senses the exact predicament of Japan is seen in the ready and almost instant relief offered the little brown men and women across the Pacific. Fully satisfied that Japan cannot soon forget her rescue work, the United States can now proceed to cash in on the predicament of Japan and our own millions given for her relief. And the program of this country is not difficult to predict, when international relations are remembered. Japan is an ally of Great Britain. Indeed, Britain and Japan were allies for some time before this country was aware of the true relation between the two powers. Japan came into the World war largely because of her treaty with Great Britain, and it was a relation that prompted this country to think of Japan as a peril. It was the probable combination of Japan and Britain that made this country look upon Japan as a peril. The disaster of last week has deprived Great Britain of a very strong ally and a great force in all European matters. As long as Japan had her full power, and remained an ally of Great Britain, Uncle Sam had to entertain a respectful attitude toward the "Yellow Peril." But Japan is out of the running now. Her power is no longer to be feared. She cannot be of any value to Great Britain in war; and in her present condition she is but a liability to John Bull. This affords the United States her opportunity. In our opinion this country cannot express itself in world matters, and can speak out on European questions without fear of meeting the combined opposition of Great Britain and Japan. Indeed, Uncle Sam may now say to the world just what his position is on the European mess, and we predict an early expression with a decided leaning toward France. This country will defend France against the German attitude and the arrogance of John Bull with the assurance that Japan can do nothing to aid Great Britain. We predict that Uncle Sam will very soon speak out for France and thus put an end to what is now considered a great political issue in this country. Uncle Sam can now enter Europe with no fear of the combined opposition of Japan and Great Britain, and as soon as the rescue work is completed and the proper capital made of it, we may expect to hear the voice of the United States roaring in all European matters.

ORTANT VIEWS OF IMPORTANT ISSUE Labor THE recent dispute between the miners and operators of anthracite coal fields raises again the question of how long will the public tolerate the perennial disagreements which, after all, have to be paid for in suffering and exhorbitant prices by the common consumers. The people are tired of this ever returning wrangle over coal mining. If we are to rely upon coal—a specific kind of coal—then there ought to be furnished the consumers some kind of assurance that the supply will not be cut, off at inconvenient intervals by quarrelling operators and miners. If, on the other hand, it appears that the people are not safe from the whims and broken pledges of the coal diggers, be they miners or operators, then the people must look for another more reliable source of fuel. Coal can be displaced. It will be displaced in the course of years; and the students of science tell us that we are going to get our heat and power from something else. We know of nothing that will hasten the adoption of a new source of heat and power quite as much as these repeated strikes, walk-outs and lock-outs, which have been visited upon an innocent public during the past few years. The patience of the public is thread-bare. Nor does it make very much difference that the threatened strike was averted. The whole nation was disturbed to some degree by the announcement that a strike was very probable on September 1. This announcement cost the people money — almost very community made some preparation for a strike. This meant the spending of money purchasing coal in advance at advanced prices or purchasing other heat producing devices in preparation for the winter. The fact that the strike was averted does not refund what was spent by the public in anticipation of a cold winter with no coal in the cellar. This periodical nonsense has aroused a nation-wide discussion of the possibility of finding something else to burn for heat and power besides anthracite coal.

With the Negro becoming a more and more important factor in the industrial life of the nation, it is of increasing importance that he be organized in trade unions, not only for his own benefit, but for the benefit of all labor-as well. If the Negro is not organized, he will tend to hamper the onward mobility of his workers and will influence holding back the improvement of the condition of American labor in the past. The Negro has only too frequently been used by the employers to break strikes and to beat down wages in our industrial center. The Negro could not have been used in this way if he had been organized and infused with the point of view of the working people of the United States. Hence the vital importance of pushing organization work among the Negro workers of all trades and industries. The American Federation of Labor is doing its best to advance organization work among the Negro workers to seek the help of looking men and women in this task. The Federation is striving in every way to live up to the purpose repeatedly declared at its conventions, that of organizing all wage earners without regard to class, race, religion, sex or politics. As I have pointed out before, Labor Day is the real Emancipation day for the Negro, for it signifies the dignity of labor and the organization of all workers. This enables ability to win freedom and happiness for themselves. As the Negro has done in all instances, he will more and more win a real emancipation for himself and take his rightful place in the ranks of those who do the world's useful work.

Thew trial in question is an example of court expo-ged influence. The trial of J. W. Minter, charged with murder, before Judge C. E. Roop, at Newman, Caw county, Thursday, marks a record in Georgia jurisdiction that will go a long way toward stamping out the abnormal wave of lawlessness, if emulated by every-trial judge in the state in the handling of criminal dockets. The trial is Judge Roop to be congratulated for the orderly expedition of this case, the county officials, including Solitaire Atkinson, and the attorneys also for the defendant, are to be congratulated. It is not the purpose here to comment in any degree, directly or indirectly, upon the specific case, the evidence or the verdict, but to call attention merely to the very wholesome effect upon law enforcement that speedy trials, following the commission or alleged commission of crimes, will have. In this case the crime for which the defendant was convicted was committed on August 10, 2008, was begun on Thursday morning, September 6, and pushed to a speedy courtwide adjournment for the day, without attempt to block, thwart, obstruct or otherwise technically delay the orderly course of court procedure, in the interest of either the state or the defendant. Defendants are always entitled to benefits or reasonable doubts, and in the name of the law and justice vouchsafed by law, there must be delays at times; and yet, it is notorious that a great deal of the mob lawlessness, inexcusable though it is under any circumstances, is encouraged in that which the court system is often too slow, opening opportunities for graves in which accused who may be innocent and similarly to the protection of society through unwarranted delays in properly punishing the guilty. Speedy trials, and the speedy administration of justice through cooperation between the trial judge, solicitor and interested attorneys, as well as all court officials, tend to a firmer sentiment in behalf of the efficiency of the constituted court system; and to that same end tend to less lawlessness, and less terrorization by self-constituted "regulators," who strike at the very heart of government. The Coweta trial in question is an example of court expedition that will have a good influence.

THE PITTSBURGH COURIER urgh THE Cour GREATEST WEEKLY N 1924, A GOVERNOR AND A MAN By CHANDLER OWEN Editor, Messenger Magazine The Greek philosopher Diogenes was celebrated for having gone about the city with a lighted torch during the day. Asked his reason for light and shadow, he shining, brightly, he replied, "I am looking for an honest man." In contemplating the more recent anti-klan action of Governor J. C. Walton, of Oklahoma, one feels like joining in cessation with that other Greekian philosopher, Archimedes, and exclaming, Eureka! Which, in the words of one who very truth I have found a MAN in Oklahoma's, present Governor. A few months ago he warned the Kx Klux Klan that should another flogging take place he would declare martial law and continue it in force, if necessary, for the next two years. True to their spirit of lawlessness the governor by precipitating the final flogging sa. Whereupon the governor declared martial law over the entire Tulsa County. The tar and feather fraternity protested to the governor—but to no avail. The clay eating crackers called upon Secretary of War Weeks to intervene, in behalf of permitting the governor to visit but Secretary Weeks said he was without jurisdiction. (Think of this group of inhuman hyenas calling upon the law to: protect them in their lawlessness!). The Tulsa Courts were presented with the Ku Klux Klan members were largely Ku Klux Klaners, who donated and winked at the Ku Klux Krimes. Again Governor Walton would not be outdone. He stripped the Civil Courts of all power, refusing them the privilege to function as a law enforcement authorities; he also suspended the right of habeas corpus. The governor went further still. He urged the people to arm themselves and when attacked by mobs to shoot to kill. He then issued police commissions to the climax, he has promised a full pardon to any person convicted for shooting members of mobs. Obviously this Oklahoma governor means business. He intends to rirush out these midnight occasions. He has set out to extirpate from Oklahoma this motley crew of crooks and criminals. He proposes to bring to an end this black litter of medieval rattlesnake. We cannot overlook the following facts, namely, crime grows, upon what it feeds on. It knows no race, creed or color line. It is the Negroes flogged today and the white man tomorrow. One is lynched today, the other tomorrow. For instance, when the Ku Klux Klan and its gang burned down forty-four square miles of negro homes duringly. Tulsa not only for its future lawlessness. White Oklahoma was not then aroused. It slumbered until somebody else's ox was gored. It grew more alarmed over the flogging of a few white men than it did over the murder, mutilating and burning of scores of Negroes and their property. It is only fair to say that J. C. Waltons now owned during the Tulsa riot. What his course would have been can only now be conjectured. What we do know is that he has set a fine example for other governors to emulate. A WALTON as the executive of every Southern State, and Northern, too, would quickly drive this black band of beastly bigots to cover. An enraged citizenry pouring shout with the loudest shout would give them a dose of their own medicine. It would be a sort of homeopathic treatment, "doncha know!" Give us a few more J. C. Waltons — a Governor and a Man! "Arm yourself. Shoot to kill. I will pardon anyone convicted for shooting members of mobs." The man who said these words is owed the punishment for his gros, but by all descent citizens. He has given a prescription which will KURE, KRUSH or KILL the Ku Klux Klan! Look Pleasant We cannot, of course, all be hand- some, And it's hard for us all to be good; We are sure now and then to be lonesome, And we don't always do as we to be should. To patient is not always easy, To be powerful is much harder still. But at least we can always be pleas- ant, If we make up our minds that we will. And it pays every time to be kindly. Although we feel worried and blue: No matter how low you are down Good humor is always contagious, But you banish your friends when you frown. —The Youth's Visitor. The WHAT NOT COLUMN By Robert P.

We would not like the impression to be believe the Negro to be "inferior" in capacity but we would gladly have everyone know that we viction that he is, generally and strictly speaking, for the times, and that it will take much positive effort propaganda to pull him up to where his voice will hollow when he clamors for "equal rights"—a member of the Cabinet," a "Race diplomatic position sequence, or "equal accommodations" at the limits of carriers. Recently a white friend told us of an incident, the stance of which we think is worth repeating. Our friend tells it that he was standing on a corner in a northern waiting for a trolley. When the trolley stopped, accord to him, "about 25 colored men were waiting to get on and as several white women and children and other white And don't you know these niggers, to the last man, put in ahead of everybody, and when the white women get the car they had to stand up—niggers in all the seats." We wouldn't deny the plausibility of this story, can perhaps the "25" was a bit of exaggeration. We take the friend was speaking figuratively. But the main point has been reached yet. Our friend added: "You don't think white men will stand for this, do you? We'll jim crow Negro in the North first. You wouldn't act like that other colored men I know wouldn't do it, but the trouble you never can tell who will do it. You just have to get of them all to make sure." We have another little story which was told to us this time a colored friend was the informant. In a certain park in a certain Northern city, a friend tells it, three colored men occupied part of a bench. White men were seated on the remainder of bench. The colored men were comparing and discussing North and the South in tones audible to white men occupy several nearby benches. According to our reporter, the versation ran about as follows: "Show is a heap of difference between the North and the South. Down home colored men can't even go in the white folks' park, but up here you set on the same seat with 'em—just look at us—just run against 'em if you wants to." Of course, as our reporter not fail to say, white men were looking, listening and ing. We guess we have recorded enough "hearsay." So pose we relate something we have witnessed ourselves. It is easy. We won't take the trouble to attempt an invention of the many dirty, bare feet we have seen prop up windows facing a street, nor will we waste space on these colored house slippers we have seen colored women not "just to market," but to "town"—no, we will give one incident so we won't seem at too great pains to "town a case. At a theater recently a colored woman whom we know not nor had ever seen before sat next to us. We just she was of our "middleclass" since it was a very good dress and she had a mid-priced seat. All around us were the people ranging from plainly dressed to very well dressed. But the first thing that touched us was the fact that of these people—women—this colored woman was the one with her arms bare to the shoulders. Naturally the tracted attention because of it. Next we noticed that the arms were not "powdered"—were oily, akin to "grit" (The lady was not over stout.) Some eyed her victim with a smile; others turned glances-tinctured with excitement. During intermission at the end of the second act lady purchased a bag of candy. It was a large, stiff pug bag and when she removed candy from it the paper held. At a moment of suspense in the third act when every was straining to get distinctly each word the actor speaking the lady reached for another piece of candy, innocent and unconscious of annoying anybody else, much to the discomfort of others. To discard nice formality, Negroes coming from South are making conditions bad for everybody. By having had urbane discipline and by their environment having been conducive to spontaneous civility, they cannot other than make grave errors. But by having been set in opposition to all forms of "jim crow" practices and sedation they instinctively and vehemently demand "rights" even when their language of address is only difficulty intelligible to those not acquainted with Deep Our contention is that while it is right and proper to "fight" it might be well to explain that we don't always with a razor or a pistol, but with better manners as well with the ballot. Altogether, it is not that we do so many things we are wrong that others do not do, but it is that our group tracts particular attention on anything that is not just to We cannot condemn all individually, but as a whole that too-much looseness on our side of the line. Er preach few "Good Manners" sermons our ministers can greatly in raising our general standard, and our "leaders" (Good 'em!!) might do better if they would spread a little adjective "how to get along well" simultaneously with their adjection on "show that colored people are not quitters." she muttered; "Ugh! you, too, ehl Messin' round! are after these ol, white women, were after that, the latter that." He waddles at her, waddles at her, that we, were not. Fortunately, our friend drove pu, and gave form to our explanation. But a strange thing for "The Glass Girl" to-do-to-do, and at all later, we went to Vienna along with Jesse Binga, Sarah Burghardt, Dubois.

Aside from the terrible toil of lives, Japan has been back back a generation by the disaster, the Osaka Mainichi says. The financial loss from the earthquakes, which threw down many of the finest modern structures of the capital, destroyed manufacturing plants, banks and rest dences, and from the fires is inestimable. Japan will lose her position as fourth power of the world, according to the Mainichi, because the country has no financial reserve. The largest companies are bankrupt; insurance concerns and many of the strongest banks probably are ruined. The manufacturing industry is financially and from the viewpoint of loss of human life, the disaster is considered the greatest in Japan's history. drew deep inhalations from his cigarette, blowing out the smoke very hard, marshaling in his mind all the many points regarding Negro inferiority. Suddenly, as if struck by an inspiration, he said triumphantly, "I can positively prove the Negro is inherently inferior. The Jews were slaves to the Egyptians who, according to you, were Negroes for 480 years. The Negroes in America. Did they emerge in the debased condition of the Negro? No. Why? You also said that the Irish were slaves in New England, didn't you? Well, today these former slaves dominate the United States politically. Here's where the inferiority of Negroes in the United States—a greater number than the population of Canada, greater than the combined population of Holland and Switzerland—and yet there is not a single Negro in any position of political importance of this country. The Negroes—mostly unimportant, however. If the Negro were not an inferior would he allow himself to be thus classified?" "I will first answer your question about the jews. When they emerged from slavery they had, according to their Bible, their Jehovah to perform wondrous miracles for them, feeding them bread and water?" The Negro started with nothing and has had to fight his own battle every inch of the way. "Again the Negroes inferior position isn't due to inferiority of human variety, but to inferiority of numbers." "To inter-racial jealousy you mean the best sign of a consciousness of inferiority among any people. Race prejudice only bursts those who have a consciousness of their racial inferiority. The Negro can't trust himself. He hates to associate with his own people."

Several weeks since a big tent was spread across from where the polly was spread, the evangelist began a series of meetings. The rottar became, interested in the meetings and every afternoon and evening would sit and listen to the sessions. The evangelist moved between the hours of 2 and 4 o'clock, the rottar holds meetings, and his "amens" can be heard for blocks.

BOY SENT BY PARCEL POST Arrives Home in Good Condition, Although Marked "Perishable" CHILLICOTHE, Mo., Sept. 13. — Frank Potter, 8 years old, had been visiting an aunt, Mrs. Granny Dyler, and her daughter, Rick, the boy's home, but when it was time to return to Orrick there was no one to accompany him. Then along came Lorenza Hicks, rural mail carrier, whose route is eighteen miles and passes: Mrs. Gryer's place, and to him the question was put: "Reckon we can mail him?" Reckon we can mail him? By parcel post, so I don't see why you can't send a boy." Hicks replied. The boy was weighed and, having had a pretty good time at his aunt's dinner table, tipped the beam at 70 pounds, which took 36 cents. He was stamped on his chest and a foot and addressed to Mrs. Potter with the notice that "If not married to Mrs. Wilmry Gryder, Crab Orchard, Mo." The card also bore the warning that the boy was "perishable." Frank was bundled into the mail carrier's car and delivered safely to his home.

SNAKE ROUTS WOMAN IN BATH Six-foot Repile Enters Window and Tub As She Faints PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 13.—Mrs. Laura Clemens obtends the Volstead law, but her nerves are shattered, just the same. In her bath when through the open window she saw a snake. She fainted about the time the fourth foot of the six-foot reptile, entered the room. When her senses returned she was still in the tub, and the snake was peacefully coiled. Two seconds later she was tearing through the hallway of the apartment house, rousing the entire block with her screams. Neighbors killed the snake; it was identified as the snake it was traveling Indian medicine vendor.

Lottie Gee and Strutters "Shuffle Along" New Trial Is Ordered for Man Sent to Death Cell NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. 13.—An opinion handed down by Judge McLaughlin of the Court of Appeals in the Court of Appeals of Covington, Ky., was sent to the death house at Sing Sing prison on the strength of a forged letter, known by the prosecutor who appeared against Creasy to be such. Creasy's conviction for the murder of school teacher, K. Y., of a school teacher, who was said to have refused to marry him, was set aside by the Court of Appeals and a new trial was ordered. The letter was supposed to have been written by Miss Lavoy to the school teacher. It was considered of importance as establishing a motive for the crime. TOY AUTO IN BABY'S THROAT Plaything 2½ Inches Long Is Rem- mored by Operation NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. 13. — Little John Fitzpatrick, aged 18 months, owes his life to Dr. B. Gerzog, of the staff of the Jewish Hospital, Brooklyn. The child swallowed a toy automobile two and one-half inches long and Dr. Gerzog removed it from his throat in the most humiliating manner on record. The toy was removed without an incision, which for a time it was thought, would be necessary to make in the boy's neck. The toy lodged far down in Johnny's throat. He made no outey, however, and continued playing until his mother noticed he was unable to talk normally. He was taken to the hospital, where an X-ray photograph showed how the obstruction was lodged and Dr. Gerzog was enabled to extract it with delicate forces. PATIENT GETS NEW EYEBALL Surgeon Successfully Performs Operation Believed Impossible LQNDON, England, Sept. 13. — Successful transplanting of a human eyeball is reported to have been accomplished at the Tohoku Imperial University, Japan, by Dr. Sadema Kumar, a professor said to have discovered that any eyeball can be transferred from one person to another when the blood of the two persons is of exactly the same quality and consistency. Discussions with experts took the view that the feat was absolutely impossible. WOMAN, 73, HAS BLUE SKIN NEW ORLEANS, La., Sept. 13. Medical specialists here are discussing the presence in this city of a case similar to that of Fred Walters, the man with the blue skin and organs, who died in New York. The case is that of Mrs. Amelia Leopold, 73 years old, believed by local spe- cialists to be the world with a deep blue skin. For more than twenty years, according to her brother, Mrs. Leopold has been a mystery to scientists.

While A. E. Craig, of this city, was cleansing a shed connected with his home he came upon a nest of spiders with almost human features, a neighbor suggested that they were very strange specimens and that the remaining three spiders should be preserved alive for the benefit of science. The spiders have an oriental head, slit eyes, small mouths and ears. They have eight long legs, pink and striped with black. Their bodies are shaped like footballs, and are of a reddish-orange color. They have sharp jaws and long tails, small mouths and ears. They emit a poisonous, steamlike vapor, which forms a moisture on glass or any hard, smooth surface. Mr. Craig's opinion is that the spiders came here in some tropical region to make their home in his shed. Son Barred From Seeing His Mother Son Barred From Seeing His Mother Must Never Visit Parent He Abused, Is Court Order SAULT STE. MARIE, Mich., Sept. 13—Fred Lifton, 27, is under court orders never again to see his mother, Mrs. Harriet Litson, 71. Fred was convicted of assault and battery on his mother. His father testified that he heard his aged wife scream at him and he would touch the ground in front of their home. He said his son, Fred, had thrown her out of the house. The court told Fred that if he was ever again caught in the vicinity of his mother's home he would be brought into court and sent to prison. As the father left the courtroom he turned to his son and said: Fred, I don't want to hurt you, but please stay away from your mother and me. We want to live in peace in our last years." Fred was arrested on complaint of Fred was arrested on complaint of his father. Cat Mother Own 6, Adopts 5 and 1 Pig All Are Progressing Nielly and Happiness Reigns EDWARDSVILLE, Ill., Sept. 13. —The outside world should know of Madison County's stegmother cat that, in addition to nursing her six kittens, is taking care of five orphan kittens and one orphan pig. The cat belongs to Sam H堡堡, lives near Edwardsville. Several days ago the cat presented her owner with six beautiful kittens. The same day another cat on the farm died after giving birth to five kittens. Humbleton's youngest daughter, Bobby, took the motherless five kittens, which accepted them as her own. Later the girl found a small pig several days old which was almost dead. After feeding it with milk, she gave it to the mother cat, with the result that the cat is caring for it, too. The pig is progressing finely, and the stepmother cat seems perfectly happy, and so does the cat. SIX TO WATCH TWO DIE BY LETHAL GAS Tiny Death House Being Built to Test Nevada's New Corporal Punishment Law DAYTON, O., Sept. 13. — Mrs. Susie Watkins, an attractive married woman, was found in an unconscious condition on South Broadway, a short distance outside the city limits, Thursday-night. The woman was-taken to a hospital,-suffering from shock. Her assailant was unknown. JAMAICA, N. Y., Sept. 13. John S. Gretzer, 45, who since the Philippine insurrection of 1889 lived with a Manser rifle bullet imbedded in his brain, has just died in his home here. Gretzer has been a postal inspector for eight years. He regained consciousness the day after he was shot and rejoined his regiment two months later. An operation to remove the bullet would have caused death, the army surgeons feared. SIX TO WAT DIE BY LI Tiny Death House Behind New Corporal F GARSON CITY, Nev., Sept. 13. — Plans for building a tiny concrete hut, resembling an Eskimo igloo, are going forward at the State penitentiary here. When completed the small structure will have become a small jail, any that has heretofore existed in the State or any other country, for that matter. Six faces pressed against the outside of a big plate glass window are expected to watch Hughie. Sing and Gee Jon, Chinese tong murderers, die when the State of Nevada carries out its first execution by lethal injection. The State Court has ruled that this method of putting criminals to death is not cruel or inhuman. The date of the execution has not been set pending a decision of the Supreme Court on an appeal from the ruling of the State court. There will be nothing striking about the glass window which except the wide final picture of the six witnesses the law specifies, which the Orientals will carry with them into the beyond. The two Chinese will be bound tightly to two chairs, the only furniture in the air-tight chamber, to prevent their bodies from falling to the floor when consciousness leaves them. The prison warden, or his deputy, will lift his hand as a signal for the opening of a valve. Cyano-chemical agents must enter the chamber from a pipe entering the room at one corner. Death will be almost instantaneous, according to the authorities. Standing before the window, the six witnesses will watch every movement, every grimace of the laws' two victims, as they explain their crime in the newest and strangest manner of execution yet devised. Upon their testimony probably will depend on the fact that the continued in use in Nevada, possibly to be taken by other States, or whether it will be discarded as cruel and inhuman, as claimed by attorneys for the condemned men. A few minutes after life has left the two bodies, to all appearances. Movie Fan Laughs Himself to Death PETERSBURG, Ind, Sept. 13. "Out of Luck" was the title of a motion picture show witnessed, in part, by John Chamberlain, 15 years old, and that is what it meant to him, for he laughed himself to death. Chamberlain had been laughing uproariously all through the picture, and near its close, Charles Preston, sitting next to him, felt him toppling over, still laughing, but there was something about the laugh that was not all merriment. Preston summoned ushers, who carried Chamberlain to the door for air, but he was scared when the door opened, hit it. The owner's verdict was that apoplexy, caused by excessive laughing, was the cause of death. TCHTWO ETHAL GAS Built to Test Nevada's Punishment Law physician will enter the death chamber, wearing a gas mask, similar to one used to repel the deadly fumes employed with such terrible effect in the late war. After a swift but careful examination of the two bodies he will either call, for more gas or he will declare that the law of the State has been satisfied fully. comment on Doomed Boy He is Hughie Sing, an American educated fully the one that is in stores for him if the last appeal fails, even though the other may not. He is Hughie Sing, an American educated Chinese boy, barely 20 years old. Hughie apparently is more interested in the legal battle that is being waged to have his life and that of him. He is in the manner he is to die. "One way is about as bad as another," was Hughie's laconic comment when asked what he thought of it. Gee Jon has nothing to say on the subject. He is 30 years old and has a reputation as a killer in San Fran- ces. He himself had administered death in form and it matters not to him, either. A stroll on the streets of Carson City found opinion sharply divided as to this method of inflicting capital punishment. Some upheld the Legislature, which provided for the death of the belief that death would come instantly. Others said they were not so sure. Sleeping Motion Is Suggested The doubtful ones advocated giving the condemned a sleeping potion to the dead, and the condemned a death chamber, notwithstanding statements of experts that the lethal gas would arouse them from any slumber short of death itself. There were others who expressed emphatic opposition to execution by the gas, and that either hanging or electrocution would be more humane, they insisted. If Nevada must have some other method, then why not follow the example of her neighboring State of Arizona, who condemned the option of death by hanging or shooting.

The white group of colleagues preliminary week out on the Courts of Williams Dixie Bel- courted show from the tour were offered. The is a low basilie show with special scenery, typi- cally one comedy, but with impressive talent.

He who sang "Swance and "Yodle for outstanding singer of good voices. The show was O. K., diminished by a very good cornetist with the company orchestra that played everything as if it were his solo. There was one girl who could really dance, and a pair of boys who were real hoofers. The comedians got laughs a plenty and if any of them had a real show written for them, and had a proper production, they could hold their own on any bill. The fact remains, however, that "Down Home Shows" rank right along with other "Down Home" features, and have to be revised for New York's adaption. The company roster includes: Harry Brook, Estelle "Carroll Floid, John Jenkins, Tom Parker, Johnson Lee, Song Bird, Ephen Jones, Uncle Jose, Emma Harkins, A.

Willis Sweatnam, the Clarinet specialist and conductor who has for some weeks past been a feature with his hand at the New Connies Inn, in Harlem, is again in Vaudeville. Tim O'Donnell of the Pat Casey office has booked him with ten musicians, and a single dancer for the coming season. The act opened on Sept. 10. Besides Sweatman there is Leslie Davis, cornet; Atkins with cor- net and trombone, Ramon Hernandez, saxophone; Ferey Green, saxo, Cal Jones, trombone; Ed. A. Stevens, piano, Joy Reed Drums, Wilmer Bread, String bass, and Romeo Jones Bass bass, doubling other instruments. The unusual sort of combination, but the harmony the bunch is capable of creating is most certain to make this musical novelty combination one of the seasons successes. Baltimore has long been a more or less intolerant city with regard to the aspirations of the colored people especially in the amusement line. Traditional southern policies have long prevailed, whether or not they are best, is not for us to say: But Les Sponsler, manager of the Gayetty theatre in that city played the "How Come" show a few weeks since, and broke some of those practices with results that seem to have been satisfactory to all concerned. For many years colored patrons to the theatres of Baltimore, other than those catering especially to the race, have been obliged to go to the gallery. Mr. Sponsler, made his reservations otherwise. He sold one side of orchestra, family circle and gallery to each race. The house did more than Ten Thousand Dollars gross for the week, the patrons are demanding more colored shows, and the colored patrons who can afford it, have been able to sit in a part of a theatre that was their own selection, rather than accept the obligation to go skyward regardless of taste or desire. This is a very logical, and very progressive step in the direction of better race relations. Incidentally, Sponsler, who was accustomed visitor to the N. Y. Office of the Billboard, told the Page that the netting chief of police, Lieut. Davis gave the star, Eddie Hunter a personal compliment and a written testimonial of his very high opinion of the merit and cleanliness of "How Come." Mr. Sponsler announces that hereafter he will gladly play good Negro attractions in conjunction with his stock burlesque or as an occasional replacement of that form of entertainment. He has already played Jackson and another colored prize fighter as added attractions, and is in New York for the purpose of looking over acts at the Lincoln and Lafayette theatres. He has also established a contract with the Dudley office in Washington. Florence Mills who headed the Plantation Room Revue in the London production of "From Dover to Dixie" closed with her bunch on Sept. 1. It is reported, that she will return to America and will appear with Vodery's band in an Erlanger production that will have an otherwise white cast. The company left London on Sept. 11. Prof. Elkins has become so satisfied with the character of harmony his folk song singers are capable of, that he is now presenting the organization as a whole or in small units commercially. An office has been established for booking the Singers with Ethel Purnello and Clarence Overton as business representatives.

Get one, and kill the need of "behind the stove" arguments as to who has been on Broadway. The index is a feature of the Fall Special every year. Louis Deppe, baritone and Ear Hines a pianist journeyed from Pittsburgh, Pa., to New York, on Sept. 8, to record some numbers for the Okey company. Herbert Atwell Rose was the concert master of a group of Eleven colored musicians who were recently the principal attraction at the big Grauman metropolitan theatre in Los Angeles. Bert Johnson, a vocal soloist appeared with them. Texas newspaper men organized a Press Association at a meeting held in Fort Worth on Sept. 5. W. G. Bouldin of the San Antonio Inquirer, is the President; J. W. Rice of the Dallas Express is the secretary. They propose to enlist all the Rape papers in Texas for concerted effort at improved journalism and general good. The Page extends best wishes for a most complete success in their laudable effort. The Burlesque shows have over sixty colored acts on the circuits ranging from a few singles through teams and trios to tabloids and event to an attraction that is fifty per cent Negro. Most of the engagements were the result of managers and agents looking over acts mentioned in the Billboard last spring and summer. Of colored performers carried their permanent address card on the page where these managers could see it, fewer would be constantly offering the Page big sums of money to place them when the season opened. Florence McClain with her five jazz singers have been an immense hit over the Poli time, where the act was made a headliner from its opening week. Agents have actually been pestering the Page in their efforts to obtain the act. Newpaper clippings from several New England towns have been most gratifying. Her husband Frank Montgomery staged the numbers. Frank is now staging shows on the Columbia wheel. The family has truly come into its own? Edward Elcha the photographer has left the Strand Studios to again embark in business for himself. The new concern is called the Progress studios with a place of business on West 46 Street, New York and a branch office in Harlem. Elcha has often collaborated with display more colored shows than any other day photographer, and has done more work for white attractions than any other photographer of our race. Alexander Peel has quit the boards. He is associated with a chinese restaurant connected with the Lafayette café in New York. His proudest boast is that he serves Chas. Gilpin and the other highbrow boys and thus is in constant contact with the profession-besides he says, he is eating both regularly and plantiful.

They will remain in Savannah. I. M. Lawson, a new publisher of the group whose office is in the Black Swan Building in Harlem, and whose number "The Cincinnati Dream" was featured by the Columbia band on the Lexington Fair grounds in Kentucky recently, entertained the whole organization when the band appeared in New York with the Knights of Pythians convention. The band reciprocated by tying up seven Ave., traffic to serenade the publisher. George Allen, Mary Jackson and J. C. Davis, who compose the Melody Three report great success for their act in the bigger T. O. B. A. houses. They are using Eddie Haywoods song number "Why did you take your love from me." Big Acts For Burlesque The Columbia Burlesque circuit has arranged to place several big colored acts as added attractions on the circuit. Several reasons are recognized as being responsible, chief among them all being the proven drawing power of the Negro acts that have been presented on the circuit. Jimmie Cooper who last year topped the circuit with his show that included the Gonzelle White show, this year opened at St. Louis with a Sixteen Thousand dollar week with his black and white revue against the handicap of hot weather. Among the new acts will be found Pizarro's Maniaci serenaders. The Musical Spillers who opened in Cleveland on Labor Day; Mastens Holiday in Dixie, with Joe Russell. Dancing Davis is getting an act together for them. "Seven-Eleven" are negotiating, and the Harper and Harper act ruined its chance by having an agent horn in the deal after it was set.

Mrs. Stafford is going back to her home "to get a divorce." "But I really haven't any home," she explained, "No home, no friends and only $140 out of the $1,000 with which I started on this hunt for Harvey. And no job, but I guess I can get a job. I taught school to earn money to take; this trip and I can play in an orchestra. I studied music in Chicago, you know." "Is your faith in men completely destroyed?" asked the reporter. STILL HOLDS FAITH IN HIM "No, I believe in my husband and I believe there are good men." "Do you expect to forget your husband?" "No, I am coming back when he might come." I suppose I work well, but might again. Mrs. Stafford, told how she came to discover that her husband was in Denver. She went to the state of Washington to see an aunt of her husband. The aunt did not know her, but posing, as a friend of Harvey's mother, she found out from the aunt that Harvey was in Denver. Then she came here. When Mrs. Stafford discovered her husband, she filed a statutory charge against him, declaring he was living with Margaret Beis, "the red-haired girl" from Huron, S. D. Friday, she dismissed the charges and promised her husband she would get a divorce so he could marry Miss Beis and give his children a name.—Denver Post.

DENVER, Col., Sept. 13—After renouncing her right to the man she loves in order that he might marry the "other woman" and give the other woman's two children a name, Mrs. Mabel Stafford, fearful that the public might judge her husband "too harshly," spent the last few minutes before she stepped on a train Sunday night in "justifying her husband." Although she charges that the husband, Harvey K. Stafford, deserted her more than a year ago for the other woman, Mrs. Stafford holds no rancor for him. "Harvey is a man of high ideals," she said Sunday night, shortly before she boarded a train for Aberdeen, S. D., whence she started more than a year ago to find the husband. "He really is the victim of a designing woman. "She liked him because he is big and handsome, just as other women made trouble for Bill Hart and Babe Ruth, because they are big and famous. She put a love potion in his food to make him irresponsible, I believe. "So you see, Stafford is not so much to blame. I still love him. I do not hold anything against him, I want people to be too hard on him. "Last night, after I had decided to get the divorce and let him marry this other woman, I was so troubled in my mind I could not sleep. I kept thinking about how the poor boy Cleveland Wants No More Migrants Says Ky. Journal LOUISVILLE, Ky., Sept. 13. — Southern newspapers are taking every opportunity to stem the tide of Negro migration from the south to northern cities and as a notable evidence of the concerted effort of whites to keep the Negroes in the south, the Louisville Courier-Journal publishes the following editorial under the caption of "The Negroes Warned" by city authorities of Cleveland, through the Ohio Imperintendent of Employment, have served notice that no more work seekers are wanted in that city. There is already there, they say, a man for every job. "This is directed especially to the southern Negroes, who for months have been pouring into Cleveland, as they have been pouring into other cities of the north. Cleveland has no work for them; does not want them; and if they continue to flock there it will be at their peril. And in this respect Cleveland is not alone among the cities which have been attracting the migration of the southern blocks. "It was different a few months ago. There was a scarcity of labor in some of the manufacturing industries; advertising campaigns were conducted in the south; eloquent agents were sent there to lure the Negroes northward. So successful were these efforts that whatever labor markets there may have been across the Ohio have been glutted. "Cleveland sounds a timely warning and the Negroes would do well to heed it. Winter is coming. They had better stay on the sunny side of the river, where they have managed to live heretofore and where at least they know what to expect."

Bessie Smith the record singer broke her own record as a drawing card. The combination offered this week is a hard one to beat. The audience virtually declined to accept the final curtain, so pleased were they. Cole and Cole opened the show. This man and woman team sang three numbers of the popular style and delivered a line of "Hokum" that notwithstanding the age of the gaps delighted the audience to the extent of being able to retire to heavy applause after taking two bowls. Long and Jackson with their special drop depicting a Railway station, and showing themselves to be a pair who had just missed a train, sent over a nice bit of comedy stuff. One of the boys was under cork, besides his comedy he had some good dance stuff hid away in his shoes. One song "There's only one pal after all" and an eccentric dance lone by the team was interlarded in the comedy. They did a very satisfactory ten minutes and left the stage against the will of the audience. Bessie Smith with Irvin Johns as the piano opened full stage with a routine of recorded blues numbers. The act went over as was to be expected as she had appeared in the house-very recently and is popular. Captive Fish Is Educated Captive Fish Is Educated Pet of Arkansan Shows Gratitudd Whip Fed a Worm MOUNTAIN HOME, Ark., Sept. 13—Wyatt Wolf has started a fish hatchery in the big tank which supplies water to the light plant here. At present he has one perch, which is leading a lonely yet lively life. He wants to raise perch, but he doesn't know whether the one he has is a male or female. He says the only chance he seems to have is just to catch a dozen or two, put them in and take chances. The one he has in the tank, according to Wolf, is some fish. He calls it Speck, and has it trained. He can rap on the tank and it will come like a hog, when it is called for feed. He feeds Speck angle worms, and when the fish is hungry Wolf can hold a worm six inches from the surface of the water, and Speck will leap out and grab it. To express its gratification, as it returns to the water, the fish turns a double flip. The tank is about twelve feet square, and Wolf has a sign tacked on it, "No Fishing Allowed." BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 13. William D. Rogers, who was buried from a local church here last week, left 45 descendants, among them seven children, 20 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren.

The presence of a colored man on the ticket for Mayor appears to be the bone of contention among the colored brethren; some holding that the same makes the race appear ridiculous while others contend that it is one way to force political recognition from the Regular Republican Organization whose candidates would not be the recipient of the bulk of the colored votes with a colored man in the field. We publish below a letter addressed to the editors of the Philadelphia Public Journal in which will convey some idea as to the interest in the campaign: 612 DREXEL BANK BLDG. Arthur W Lynch, Samuel B. Hahn Editors of Public Journal, 1508 Lombard Street. Sir—I have read your "Cotortial age of your paper" of that day, my name, say that you mean, low, dirty, be brought into court to prove it. I suppose if I had agreed to when they had, as I am inform $10,000 (Ten Thousand Dollars) on Friday, Aug. 14, 2023, when it and Lewis B. Moore to 1202 Flibl I was one of the principal and duo of the folio. It may hurt you deeply that you get some of that slush fund, but interests of my race on a principal man's dollars as you and you are reported to do consistently. Yours truly Note—Mr. J. Henry Ducke on the ticket, you are贴帖 for Negro man who refuses to take the regular Republican Organ against the Philadelphia policy of cognition for the 100,000 Negro here, and to demonstrate sufficiency to force more adequate recognition. Arthur W Lynch, Samuel B. Hart, et al. Editors of Publite Journal. 1508 Lombard Street. Sir I—have read your "Conspirators" paragraph on the editorial age of your paper of this week's issue, dated September 8, 1923, in which you include my name, and I take this opportunity to say that you mean, low, dirty, unimpaired liars are very likely to be brought into office if I had agreed to "sell out" to your gang politicians when they had, as I am informed, offered all or some part of $10,000 (Ten Thousand Dollars) to get Mr. Duckeye off the ticket on Friday, Aug. 24, 1923, when they应会 Mrs. Lena Trent Gordon and Lewis B. Moore to 1202 Filbert street to "get him," and when I was one of the principal officers, I was probably well good fellow with the rest of you. It may hurt you deeply that you did not, chiefly on my account, get some of that slush fund, but I have always stood for the interests of my race on a principle and not for a few dirty white man's dollars as you and your Republican Organization gang are reported to do consistently, because people are likely to be angry. Sir Charles Fred White. Note—Mr. J. Henry Dickey, by his own solicitation was put on the ticket as candidate for Mayor, of Philadelphia, by a few Negro men who refuse to take dictation and do the dirty work for the regular Republican Organization of the city as a protest against the Philadelphia policy of wholly inadequate police force. Sir Charles Fred White has to and should demonstrate sufficient independent political strength to force more adequate recognition. 'Bennie' Fields Deserves Our Whole Support Among the many candidates for council in the Fourth Senatorial (West Philadelphia) district is Benjamin H. Fields, member of the Pennsylvania legislature. He is thoroughly involved with the needs of his nation and his city and should be given the opportunity to demonstrate his legislative ability in City Hall.

Migrants From South Continue To Invade City Guests From New York The continual migration of Southern Negroes to the North was discussed at the monthly meeting of the committee on Negro Migration, held at the Philadelphia Housing Association. The point of saturation in Philadelphia's labor market seems now coming from the south are finding employment without any difficulty, many being used in the business trades. The scarcity of houses available for these new arrivals is giving great concern. The committee is now working small homes at workmen's prices to relieve the acute shortage which is forcing many of the migrants into congested living in insanitary homes. The committee is also working on plans to approach Philadelphia's plan with a plan to provide company owned houses for their Negro employees. The recent race-rivals were discussed and the committee will ask the assistance of the ministers of white America to address the neighborhood changes are taking place, to co-operate to bring about more congenial relationship between the new arrivals and the residents.

Brown) CHICAGO, Ill., Sept. 13—The Governor's conference outlined only three weeks ago by Senator William Cabell of Maryland, who still owns his plantation in Virginia with a view of devising ways and means for the adoption of a uniform anti-lynching bill that could be recommended to the several State Legislatures has apparently been a ten pin strike. Following closely the endorsement of Gov. Walker of Georgia and the Governor of Texas, the National Committee this week received a check for $100 from the Hon. Dixon C. Williams, one of the ex-confederate colonels of Tennessee, with the following letter: "I congratulate you on the very timely plan of your committee in promoting a Governor's conference for the purpose of formulating a uniform Anti-Lynching Bill to be recom- THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN WHEN A FELLOW N CONST FIFTH LEE H HELP ME WIN Four Support Will Be Appreciated (For Ad County Commissioner Fearless An Exponent of Efficiency and Fair Taxation mended by the chief executive of each state to the respective legislatures. I have always felt as the New York Times pointed out in its editorial comment on this plan of Senator Bruce, that the Christian maority of the people of the Southland particularly would come forward in support of any legislation for the protection of fellow workers and American citizens, I am sure that the best thought of our country believes in justice and fairplay for the Negro, and as one of those business men of the South who realizes that the best interests of all are inseparably linked with the colored citizens of our land, I cannot state too emphatically that I am sincerely in sympathy with your movement, and I will be glad to assist in any capacity that will insure the success of such a splendid and patriotic service." GEO. L. BOND The Toy Mission Man of Crafton, Pa. Republican Candidate for Director of the Poor For twenty years he has cared for the poor and needy regardless of creed, color or nationality. Worthy of your support. These words coming from one of the most honored speakers before Kiwanis Club, and Merchant and Manufacturers Association both in the North and South, to say nothing of the active support of such an outstanding industrial leader will come as a reassuring hope in the breasts of 10,000,000 colored people in the South, who were led through spurious political propaganda to believe that all was lost with the defeat of Dyer-Aanti-Lynching Bill by the overwhelming Republican majority in the last United States Senate. Whether we accept the words of President Coolidge that the Southerner is the Negro's best-friend en toto or not, we are forced to acknowledge that the Southerner is at least honest while his Northern brother is generally insincere as they were on the Lynching Bill. They promise everything and in the end give nothing. In the last analysis, we must place our confidence in the man—not his politics or his geographical boundaries. At Mary's Iamb We do no longer laugh; Interest now Is all in Mary's calf. Vesuvius always has a plume of smoke waving over it. This caught the eye of one visitor to Naples to the exclusion of all else. For days he viewed it from his hotel window with a telescope. Proceeding then to make the acquaintance of some city officials, he asked the name 'of the mountain. They told him it was Vesuvius. "Well," he stated, "I'm a revenue officer at home, and I'll just give your police a little tip. I have been watching that hill a week now. I've had experience in such matters. They can't fool me. Somebody is running a still." Such a Generous Man, Seeing a little girl in rags and half-starved looking, one of Wichita's richest men was touched to the heart, so the Eagle of that city reports: He pulled a package from his pocket and said: "Here, child, I have more than I want. Give this to your mother and tell her it will last her a year." With trembling hands the mother unwrapped the package the child had delivered to her with the rich man's message.
