Johnson, a native of Roanoke, Va. was for a number of years master mechanic for the Pittsburgh Coal Company, prior to the invention and development of the seventeen different safety devices, which he has covered with over 45 patents.

Johnson, of Montclair, created a sensation in court here last week in her suit for a divorce. If it was a "spell," Vice Chancellor Church broke the spell here Wednesday when he granted a divorce to the pretty wife, and brought to a dramatic close, one of the most unique cases in the history of local court circles. In addition to being granted a divorce, Mrs. Johnson was awarded $2,000 allmoney, which he paid in a lump sum. Tragic Scene Enacted With tears rolling down her face, and with her voice at times more than a whisper, Mrs. Johnson, cynosure of the eyes of eastern society's elite, who had crowded, the small courtroom, heard a touching story of her stormy voyage on the ship, "Matrimony," which was finally wrecked on the rocks of unhappiness, jealousy and suspicion. The couple were married March 26, 1915, in the south, and according to Mrs. Johnson's petition, her husband, on Nov. 9, 1917, took her back to her mother's home in Weldon, North Carolina, and left her there, saying that a sort of "spell" was on him and he no longer loves her. Mrs. Johnson, however, is alleged to have stated that the presence of the woman" was the cause of the rift. Waited for Months Mrs. Johnson, who now lives in Montclair, came north after waiting a long time for her husband to send for her. When she finally did come north, she states that he refused to take her back and she commenced suit for divorce through her attorney. CAN YOU HELP?

SHOOTS WIFE; GUEST Appearance Of Guns Quiet "Vigilantes" Attempt to Re-enact Infamous Johnstown Incident Nipped by Local Authorities — Colored Citizens Armed. Creeping back into their shells before the prompt action of city and county officials, the self-appointed "vigilance committee" who ordered the colored citizens of Stowe Township to "get out within 24 hours," shifted responsibility from their shoulders last week, as the aftermath to the second act of Mayor Caufield's "cazotic" order became nothing but a hollow set for last Wednesday night at 7 o'clock, nothing materialized, and although armed protection was ready to enforce law and order, no disorder was apparent. Devillish Demonstrations Spasmodie, devillish and uncalled for demonstrations, extending, over four days and nights, staged by Arrest Hundreds In Hill District As An "Aftermath" One of the disgraceful flarebacks of the Rowland murder and the Stowe Township affair has been the wholesale arrest of men in the Hill district during the past week. It is said that officers lined men up along the buildings near-Wylie avenue and Fullerton street, if they could give no good excuse for being in that vicinity. The next morning, the men were released. It is said that more than 200 men were arrested. white residents against colored citizens in Stowe township, inspired by a story of a white girl that a Negro killed her father and attempted to assault here, were brought to an end Thursday night, when county detectives, deputy sheriffs and township policemen dispersed more than 200 men and boys who had gathered near eight colored homes in the district. Colored Citizens Armed Advised by local attorneys, who had been apprised of the tense situation, to arm themselves and defend their homes and property, and assured the backing of the authorities, the colored men of the community, after obeying the "get out" order to the extent of sending their wives and children from the community, returned heavily armed, and were prepared to protect themselves, even at the cost of their lives. The situation was acute. A law was feared. But the presence of the law cooled the ardor of the self-constituted body of law and order enforcers. The situation which developed Wednesday and Thursday evenings was the result of a parade of a group of white men and boys last Tuesday night, who has reat of their nationally inhumane order, and attempted to pull off the same stunt. The paraders, it is alleged, marched around to about a dozen homes and delivered verbal "orders" for all occupants to leave the community within 24 hours.

Masked Men Attempt To Lynch Girl ROME, Ga., Oct. 18—An attempt to lynch a colored woman, who had defended her "honor" against a white farmer, became known here Saturday morning, when news leaked out from the sheriff's office of an incident, which if carried through would outvival Congo brutality. Miss Ada Robertson, "belle" of this city, shot and seriously wounded a prosperous white farmer, when the latter invaded her home, in the absence of the other members of the family, and attempted to assault her. The girl obtained a revolver and seriously wounded the man. Attempt Lynching Six men, said to be cronies of the wounded man, stormed the jail, where the girl had been placed following the shooting, and demanded that the jailer deliver the woman to them, they were taken to the Fulton county jail in Atlanta. Removal of the girl was due to a warning received by the sheriff through a colored prisoner. His wife hearing of the impending attempt, wrote him a note telling of the would-be lynchers' plans. The prisoner turned the warning over to Sheriff Wilson and the girl was sent to Atlanta several hours before the effort was made to get her. None of the men were recognized by the jailer, who said that all were handcuffed, who was faced, which made them unrecognizable. Tell of Relationship A new sensation was sprung here early Saturday morning, when rumors were being wafted about that the girl had been the man's parmour for some time, and that she shot him, when he objected to her effort to "break loose." Colored residents of the community assert that this story is false and was circulated by friends of the dead man. It is said the girl prisoner's family stands high in the community. TEN CENTS A COPY VORCE UEST Two Accused Of Carrying On "Affairs" Jealousy Held As Cause of Double Tragedy at Party As Husband Uses Gun. A story so dramatically tragic that it might have sprung from the mind of a Belasco or Glyn, unfolded itself here Wednesday night, when investigation brought to light an alleged love triangle, which caused Jacob Pierce, 35 years old, to shoot and probably fatally wound his attractive wife, and her alleged paramour, Joseph Miller, at a party given in the Pierce home on "Red Row." Veronn. Both of the victims are in the Columbia hospital in Wilkinsonburg, the woman suffering from a rupture of the uterus in Alabama. After the attack the woman was arrested by Chief of Home Samuel. Whisner, of Verona, and County Detective Cochran. Had Carried on "Affair" Unrequited love and a temporary love for: the third "angle" in the triangle, are said to have been causes which led up to last week's climax. A woman's alleged unfamiliarity to her mate, the appearance of another man, rumors of infidelity and jealousy, green-eyed dragon of trouble, played leading roles, on the stage of Life's great drama of love and hate. Neighbors allege that Mrs. Pierce five years younger than her mum band, was the victim of a stronger infatuation for Miller, five years younger than herself. The youth with his looks and air of worldliness supplied for her just that spite of excitement so necessary and vital to the lives of some woman. For some time the couple had been carrying on an affair, it is alleged, and the stories of their secret meetings, borne on the wings of gossip, finally reached the ears of the husband. Holds Party at Home Wednesday night, a party to a group, intimate friends was held at the Pierce home. The party, if alleged, was held at the installation of the husband, who each took the serve the pair and scripted the actions at close quarters. What he saw evidently substantiated the unsavory rumors linking his wife's name and that of young Miller together. While the party was at its height, Pierce accused his great in the presence of others, stating that the affair must stop, and admiring the youth to leave the town.

Damaging Testimony Impeached Mother of Mrs. Nell Rose Miller Says That Girl Forced to Testify—Race Detective Forces Admission. CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 18. — Sheridan A. Brusselux, a colored detective, head of the Keystone National Detective Agency, of Chicago, succeeded in obtaining evidence which would impeach the testimony of Mrs. Nell Rose Miller, star witness in the stakes' divorce case, after Attorney Samuel Untermyer had tried unsuccessfully for several hours to break down Mrs. Miller's testimony, the course of the trial in New York last week. The Miller woman repeatedly declared that she had waited upon Mrs. Stokes several times in the apartment of Edgar Wallace, who is named by Stokes as co-respondent. Attorney Untermeyer grilled Mrs. Miller for several hours, attempting to make her contradict herself. He finally failed and gave up in his attempts. At this juncture, Sheridan A. Brueaux, who had been retained by Mrs. Stokes, was informed by long distance phone, from New York, that the case was about to be closed, and that the Jury's verdict would probably hinge on Mrs. Nell Ross Miller's statements. He then got in touch with Mrs. Eliza Bailey, Mrs. Nell Ross Miller's mother, and finally obtained an affidavit from her which indicated that her daughter had perjured herself in the New York Court. A dramatic scene was enacted in the detective's office, when in the presence of two Chicago Daily newspapermen, Mrs. Eliza Bailey made her starling statement. She said, "My daughter told me that she was sure she could not identify Mrs. Helen Elwood, Stokes and that she did not know the woman she saw in Edgar Wallace's apartment, but that she was going to be forced to testify as a witness in the W. E. D. Stokes New York Divorce case, because she had received money at various times and was literally being bounded to death." This indictment was rushed to New York City by the colored detective and when Mrs. Nell Rose Miller was confronted with her mother's statement made under oath, she admitted that she had perjured herself. Thus, it is believed, that the testimony of Stokes' star witness will be impeached through the brilliant work of the colored detective, Shiridan A. Brusceau. This investigation, no doubt, must Mr. Brusceau on record as one of the cleverest detainees in the country, not only of his own race, but of any race. Say "Bayer" and Insist!

Carey, of Chicago, presiding, was held in Quinn Chapel, which has just celebrated its 85th anniversary. This is one of the most beautiful church edifices of Louisville valued at nearly $200,000. This church will be the Episcopal headquarters for the General Conference in 1924. Dr. Noth W. Williams is pastor. He was elected and received every one of the votes cast by the W.

Bishop Carey was very cloquent in his praise for Dr. Floyd Snelson, who builded St. Mary's in Chicago at a cost of $60,000. He said: "Dr. Snelson is not only a scholar and minister of the Gospel, but he has carried the banner of African Methodism all over the world.

PEORIA, Oct. 18.—(Courler-Whip Service)—Roolins: Crawford, 30 years of age, pumped four bullets into the body of his wife, Mrs. Florence Crawford and attempted to commit suicide by shooting himself here late last week. He was removed to a hospital, where it is believed, he will die. The dual tragedy is interwoven by a complication of circumstances, but it is believed that Crawford killed his wife because she refused to give up their baby. The Crawfords formerly lived in Washington, D. C., at the home of the wife's parents, but recently moved to Danville, Ill., to live at the home of Crawford's father. Deserted Wife Crawford, who boasted himself as being a Socialist, refused on several occasions to obtain employment to support his family. Such conduct on his part brought about an estrangement between himself and his wife, and the two were finally separated. Mrs. Crawford fell into desperate circumstances, it is said, and was compelled to call upon her family for aid. In the meantime, their baby was being kept at the home of her sister-in-law, a Mrs. Ames, who lived in Peoria. After receiving a sum of money from her parents, Mrs. Crawford went to Peoria to get the child. It was there that she met her husband last week, and the shooting took place. It is stated that Crawford appeared at the house and told his wife that she was not a fit person to care for his child, and that he would rather kill her than allow her to ruin the baby's life. She denied any misconduct and insisted on keeping the baby. Crawford then flew into a frenzy and shot her four times. 'Puppy Love' Held Cause of Shooting SILVER STREET, S. C., Oct. 18.—"Puppy Love" is held to be the motive behind the shooting last Saturday of Jane Ella Moore, aged 15, by Henry Weaver, the same age. The pair who had been going together were returning from "a hot supper party," given by a local church club, when the Weaver boy shot the girl. She was rushed to the Good Samaritan Hospital, a colored institution, where it was found that there were 11 perforations in the intestines, with punctures in the bladder. Doctors said there was a chance for her recovery. The Weaver boy has not been seen since. H AIR MADE TO RE Dressed. Des, Straightening Hair Goods. -Town Patrons.

Author of Simms' Blue Book, etc. Business enterprises operated by two or more persons should be undertaken, only after they have all signed partnership agreements which concisely state the relations and obligations of each partner to the business enterprise and to each other. It is a common practice amongst our people to go into business as partners before they have entered into any specified agreements or have definitely decided within their own minds just what relations each would bear to the business; how much capital each should furnish, how much time each should devote to the business, what the obligations of each should be towards the business and to each other, and many other details that should be settled in advance, but are not given any consideration until they arrive in the regular course of business. When this happens, differences or opinions between the partners as to what should be done under the circumstances, often arise, and as they have no written agreements to govern them in their conduct of meeting and settling the new question, it often happens that neither partner will surrender his own views or opinions to those of his co-partners, or J.

When such dead-locks take place between partners, the questions under consideration are seldom, if ever, settled to the satisfaction of all parties concerned, and as a consequence unpleasant relations rise between them that cause a permanent dissatisfaction. Or later, the partnership is dissolved with great loss to the business and to the partners individually. In view of the above stated facts, it is always necessary and worth the money and time spent to carefully have drawn, partnership agreements, made, and signed before you begin to do business together. If these agreements are drawn by an experienced attorney, you will find that they will serve as a guide for you when new questions and difficult problems present themselves, and thereby be a preserved for your business, your money and reputations as business men.

Tolerant " Attitude of Democratic Headquarters Causes Change. Policy of Dever and Hylan Refused. pall to the Pittsburgh Courier) ed. Edward B. Brown By Lydar N. Oct. 18.—The head- crowd of the Democrat, candidate for Kentucky are unable to access, via the "Jim democrat for bellboys and col- laborate in the exclusive Seel- beck. It reminds one of the allied Republicans of Texas who wish to hold state conven- tion, the presence of duly colored representatives by a fine fashionable hotel dignity," as he used to say, and allowed. The Democrats of Texas, a little more liberal than others in Texas, who recently till through the legislature colored citizens from Texas in a Democratic primary, made it possible to get to the the Seelbeck by the elevator. Needless to say, a large amount in the Demo- cracist is courteous, but family is ensured. The mention ofames passover letter of information from the other nationaries, however, an influence. Your correct information in this seat, except to read and shuck, none of political atmosphere reception time, not even an in- tention to be seated. The Demo- cracist of Kentucky are apparently in our good friends in Wyck Chicago and Baltimore. I said. "You people can seem interested here." Mr. Russell in a mechanical manner said, I say, we are interested, but we really money to spend." I stood on my feet before a good man, but rather-unpro- gressed of political thought, an hour pleasing with him to the colored voters a chance to a ballot for Democratic candi- lors office like Mayor J. Lee Dever of Chicago, and Joan Haskins of Boston to believe Haskins Reeves' policy of a candidate to every man. I must be Kentucky Democrats are in adhering to the Ben Till- mills and have chosen one of the most dangerous foes of the people's rights, privileges relationship since the passing of Saint, in the candidacy of Immanuel Fields as the Demo- cracist for Governor of the state of Kentucky. The Republican headquarters of state of Kentucky are in the city building of Louisville, just east the street from the Seelbach. In the spirit of this Republic in this live, see access may be to the fourth floor of this building of one of three main front elevators. At the fourth floor you contacted by a row of offices at the top "Republican Statequarters," below may be found at the Chairman, "Ladies' Bureau." "Labor Bureau," "Colored Bureau," "Soldiers" Bureau" and Publicity Department, in about that order. This reminded me of the third floor of the Severin Hotel, Indianapolis, in the midst of a big Indiana State campaign. As a press representative I was immediately ushered into the State Chairman, Chesley H. Searcy's office, where I was presented with the state superintendent's annual report on elementary high and normal schools for colored students. This report shows during/the administration of Governor Morrow that colored school supervisors were appointed for the first time and that colored teachers of Kentucky have been put on the same salary basis as the white people and that the colored schools have been accredited standing with big names in the country for the first time in the history of a southern state. "We have just appointed a colored fire department and two women and two men as city police and we have one colored chemist in the City Chemistry Department," said Mr. Searcy. Mr. Searcy called Attorney Walter Robinson, of Hopkinsville, Ky., chairman of the colored bureau, into his office and asked Mr. Robinson to furnish with any data that would help to substantiate the position of the Republican party toward the colored citizens of Kentucky. In comparing the Democratic and Republican platforms I found a strong plank condemning the Ku Klux Klan as un-American and vigorously denouncing same as a menace to civilized government. Another plan reads: "We commend to the sympathetic consideration of the next legislature the need and justice of providing for our colored citizens better facilities for Normal schools of the highest grade and an institute for the care of the colored feeble-minded children." Nothing of a sympathetic or assuring nature was found in the Democratic Declaration of Principles. Articles from the daily press attribute to Rev. George Wagner, a prominent Democratic speaker in Herolsburg, Ky., the statement that, "100,000 Negro wrenches will register and vote the Republican ticket." Mr. Fields, the Democratic gubernatorial candidate, in several of his speeches has referred to colored citizens as "niggers." Fields is remembered as one of the Democrats in the House of Representatives who voted against the Dver Anti-Lynching Bill. The attitude of the Democratic party has become so offensive to decent Democrats that the Louisville-Courier Journal declared the Negra a chance, an even chance. That is all any black man ask. The writer was forced to admit the logic of Attorney Robinson, who concluded, "The colored people of Kentucky are making a fight for the race, there is no question but that we must vote for the honest, proven candidate—General Charles F. Dawson, the Republican choice for governor of this state, who as attorney-general stood with Governor Morrow for their protection and advancement." treasing arrogantms rapidly disappear, and kidnives it.

The lighting creates, in part, the exhibition's most beautiful show by the manikins in their exhibition of the styles and fashions of the day, and, in short, the finesse with which the revue was accomplished all combined to show that the director possessed rare talent for the task which she has undertaken. The Freeman Fashion Revue will, in many respects, duplicate the afore mentioned style display. However, dancing for the general public will follow the display.

HEADQUARTERS FOR OUT-OF-TOWN GUESTS Hold Eleven Men At Spruce Pine Charged With Unlawful Assemblage and Conspiracy in Deportations SPRUCE PINE. Oct. 18—Eleven men, charged with rioting, unlawful assemble and conspiracy, were bound over to Superior Court under $1,000 bonds in a hearing before Justice of the Peace Carr, lasting three hours here this afternoon. The cases grew out of the disorders and deportations of about 100 Negro workers, following the alleged attack on an aged white woman by a Negro, identified by the victim as John Goss, escaped Negro convict trusty, on September 26. The hearing was free from disorders or demonstration. Only one of the defendants, the stand, Rev. Moston Buehmann, who testified that he was holding a gun for a man at the scene of the disorders, while the latter went in search of cartridges. Only six of the 15 witnesses summoned by the Stare went on the stand, one of them being Town Marshal Wright. Fifteen warrants had been sworn out, but only 12 had been served.

Lieut. Hart received a complaint from tenant of a studio building that two colored men in an automobile "out in front" were acting "suspiciously".

R.)—Roscoe Conklin Simmons, the noted orator, admitted here in a speech last week that the white man was the natural leader in the world today and advised the colored people to fall in line and help him to glory in that leadership. "Your duty rests in keeping the white man in the lead," he declared to the large audience of colored and white people, who had gathered to hear the speech. Ex-Governor Hugh M. Dorsey said the speech was the greatest he had ever heard fall from the lips of a colored man. A combined choir of 200 voices recruited from the colored churches furnished music for the meetings which was held for the benefit of Big Bethol A. M. E. Church, which was destroyed by fire last spring. It was one of the largest gatherings seen in Atlanta this year. CHICAGO, Ill., Oct. 18.—The Republican leaders of the Brudengrove faction are faced with a demand by their Negro supporters that they must nominate Edward H. Morris for a judicial position. This can be accomplished by pledging to be one of the wealthiest members of the race in the world. He has been a member of the Illinois Legislature and was a delegate to the last constitutional convention.

The lack of control of parents is causing these young ones to be liabilities on the race. Every parent should stop and take sick for the best welfare of the children. It is not the proper thing for parents to allow their children to be up and out late at nights, especially during the school season. The young one cannot successfully study and retain their lessons if they are allowed to be regular attendants at shows and parties. Complaints are being often made that many of our children are not able to make the required grades on entering other schools. There may be other just reasons, but one of the mai nones is late hours away from home at nights and the constant seeking after pleasures. This is not a proper foundation for the future men and women of the race. Edward H. Morris Seeks Judgeship Edward H.

Bishop McConnell Rebukes Ku Klux Bishop McConnell Rebukes Ku Klux Church Official Resents Interruption by Masked Party at Services. KITTANNING, Oct. 18. — Nine hooded and robed klansmen, appearing in the First Methodist Episcopal Church Sunday night as Bishop Francis J. McConnell was concluding his evening sermon, were rebuked for, what the bishop termed interrupting a religious meeting. An envelope proffered the bishop by the leader of the klansmen was declined. Then the klansmen left the church without comment and without disorder. The Sunday sermons of the bishop in the church when a conference is in session are always well attended and almost 500 persons were in the church last night. Near the close of the bishop's sermon nine klansmen robed and wearing hoods, marched down the eater able to unpaint and the leader, addressing the bishop in a low tone of voice, proffered an envelope. Without taking the envelope, the bishop, stopping his sermon, stated that he was not in favor of interrupting a religious meeting by members of the church but that he was in favor of the mask. Without any, further reply the klansmen turned and walked out of the church. M. LLOYD BOYD of Newburgh, N. Y., who could not walk and was laid up for five weeks.

DEMPSEY'S ONE REAL RIVAL BUT MAY NEVER GET CHANCE Smith lasted 10 rounds with Firpo. The Argentine, giant knocked Homer down 16 times, but could not put him away. Smith, despite the fact he made a running fight, several times staggered and slowed down the Argentinian. Homer was able to do this because Firpo was a crude, unseasoned slugger, with only one hand, and that hand, his right, while tremendously powerful, was neither cunning nor accurate. Smith lasted less than two rounds against Wills. Homer did not land a single clean punch on Harry. The Michigan heavyweight was nothing more than a punching-bag. That Smith should be tame prey for the Black Panther of New Orleans is natural. Wills is not Firpo, Wills is a tremendously powerful, seasoned, experienced veteran, who can punch fast, sharp and accurately with both hands, is a ring general with every trick of the trade at his glove tips. He not only knew enough and was clever enough to defend himself against Smith's attack, but was so fast, accurate and annihilating a two-handed puncher that he could keep Smith solely on the defensive and prevent Homer from launching any attack. As was declared before the Wills-Smith both the only question was whether Wills' was: Wills, and that if Wills was Wills, Harry would knock Homer from in under his chapeau in jig time. The Wills-Smith bout incidentally offered a basis of comparison between Wills and Dempsey, for Smith also was a victim of Dempsey. Both Fought Smith Five years ago Dempsey knocked cut Smith in one round. It took Wills half a round longer to turn the trick. But Dempsey was just as good a man five years ago as he is today, while Smith undoubtedly has improved since then. Five years ago Dempsey was fighting regularly and the frequent fights gave him an edge that he does not boast today, nor never again will boast. When Smith fought Dempsey, Smith was a raw novice. Homer. has profited with subsequent experience and seasoning. Wills came forth from out of the stable to meet a better seasoned and more experienced Smith than the Smith who went down before Dempsey. 666 Smith who sey. Yet it round long than it too and if Dammser. Yet it only took Wills half a round longer to subjugate Smith than it took Dempsey. And if Wills had fought Smith Dempsey had fought Thursday night it would not have taken him a round and a half to turn the trick. Wills fought in strict accordance to the code. After each knockdown—there were eight of them, he returned to the ARE YOU SIC ARE YOU SICK?

Underwood) After almost a year in the stable, Harry Wills, Jack Dempsey's only real rival, last Thursday night, returned to the ring and knocked out Homer Smith, of Kalamazoo, Mich., in a round 'and a half. What did the bout really show regarding Wills and the heavyweight championship situation? It showed very much and very little. Wills, lean as a greyhound, not carrying an ounce of superfluous flesh, great shouldered, powerfully muscled across back and on arms, slender waisted, trim limbed, proved that he physically was about as good as ever. The judgment of distance and timing of punches he showed after his long sojourn in the stable was even more surprising than his splendid physical condition. Wills is a clean, temperate, steady-going fellow of exceptionally good habits, but it took something more than temperate living and good habits to bring him into the ring in the superb physical condition he was in for the Smith bout. Only regular exercise daily during his lay-off and a stiff training period prior to the Smith bout could have permitted Wills to clabber into the ring at so splendid a physical edge. There was no doubt about Wills being physically "right." He was fit as the proverbial fiddle. If Dempsey himself had been in the opposite corner last Thursday night Wills would have been ready for him. It was unfortunate that the bout was not closely enough contested, long enough or of the type which could offer a fitting test of Wills' wind, stamina and courage. It was too one-sided and abbreviated to test Harry's heart for endurance. Except showing that Wills was physically unimpaired by his long stay in the stable, the bout furnished nothing which was not previously known and thoroughly understood by all discerning experts, and hitherto chronicled by all unbiased and fair-minded critics with no irons in the fire. Every discerning boxing fan expected Wills, if Wills still was Wills, to stow away Smith in jig time. Only the gullible and uninitiated believed that Smith might go the distance with Wills, just as Smith did last August with Luis Firpo.

Box 47 Hamilton Grange Station New York City furthest corner, as is called for by the rules, and waited there, until the fallen fighter, had got to his feet. If Wills had stood over Smith as Dempsey did over Firpo, and clubbed Homer before Homer got to his feet, how long do you think Smith would have lasted? Smith never would have got up from the second knockdown. Wills was not one guilty of holding, did not once hit on the break, nor did he even deign to leap quickly back in after the break, as is entirely true. Those who watched the sportsmanlike and clean manner in which Wills fought Smith the other night cannot but help wonder how much longer Firpo would have lasted with Dempsey had Dempsey fought Firpo as fairly and cleanly as Wills did Smith. Anent Wills' Hands It is commonly known that when Wills knocked out Clem Johnson in Madison Square Garden last winter Wills broke his left thumb in the first round and drove back the second knuckle on his right hand in the third round. The injuries were received because the referee would not allow Wills to hit Johnson about the body and Harry was forced to play for the head continually. Some of the critics who were at the ringside at the Wills-Smith bout placed particular stress upon the fact that Wills punched chiefly to the body and hinted that brittle hands were the reasons for Harry's body punching tactics. There is nothing the matter with Wills' hands. He went about the knocking out of Smith in an intelligent, systematic manner, weakening and softening him with body blows and paving the way for the right-hand uppercut which finished him. Like Dempsey, Wills wreaks his chief punishment about the body. It was a left to the body with which Dempsey statred Willard on the slide at Toledo, a left to the body that doubled up Bill, Brennan and left him open to the rabbit punch in Madison Square Garden, a left to the body that figuratively made Fred Fulton bend right into an accompanying right-hand smash to the jaw in the Harrison ball yard, and it was cruel lefts and rights to the body which were just as much responsible as were the blows to the jaw for Firpo's defeat at the Polo Grounds. Where would Bob Fitzsimmons have been without his solar plexus punch, or Jim Jeffries without left-hand smashes to the wind? It was not brittle hands that made Wills play for the body against Smith. It was gray matter under Harry's kinky konk. He punched to the jaw when the opening; was there and conditions decreed it. Of the eight knockdowns the first two were scored with right-hand punches to the heart, the third with a right-hand uppercut, the fourth with a combination left hook and right cross, the fifth with a right uppercut, the sixth with a left jab—this time Smith virtually went down without being hit—the seventh with a right-hand uppercut and the eighth and finishing knockdown with a right-hand uppercut. Wills played for the body continually, but he scored six of the eight knockdowns with punches to the jaw. That doesn't look much as if he was "favoring brittle hands." Dempsey's only Rival The Wills-Smith bout offered additional butt hit. Wills is Dempsey's only real rival. Harry easily and quickly disposed of the man who lasted the limit with Firpo. Everyone who saw Wills in action against Smith the other night knows how long portly Bill Brennan and aged Jess Willard would last against Wills. Everyone knows that Dempsey cannot beat Wills by simply standing up and slugging with him, as Dempsey did against Firpo. Would Wills stand a stationary non-defended target for Dempsey as did Firpo? What would happen to Dempsey if he attempted to walk in uncovered on Wills as Dempsey repeatedly did on Firpo? Do you think Jack Dempsey could take nine successive smashes on the jaw from Wills as Dempsey did from Firpo? To beat Wills, Dempsey would have to call on every bit of ring strategy, skill, speed, heart and punch he possesses. No one knows that any better than do Manager Jack Kearns and Promoter Rickard. Dempsey would be taking a desperate chance with Wills. Jack isn't with Firpo, Gibbons, Brennan, Miske, Carpentier or the others. That is why Harry Wills never has been given the championship opportunity to which he is clearly entitled, and why he never will be given that opportunity as long as Tex Rickard and Jack Kearns hold—the boxing game in the hollow of their THE PITTSBURGH COURIER Wins in Youngstown WHICH YOUNGSTOWN Homer Robinson Former 158-pound A.

The Athletic art Hasty, s an afternoon safe to say home any r Harry Wills's knockout of Homer Smith last week has been met with varied comment. Most New York writers treat the bout as a joke, although previous to it they were saying that this affair would give a line on the comparative merits of Harry and Firpo. Smith stayed the limit with the Wild Bull; Wills made it short and sweet. But did any of the Big Town experts give him credit? With one or two exceptions they belittled Smith and criticised Wills for not putting him away with the first punch. "Dick" Kain, Philly, critic, says that Wills's victory will probably give him a set-back, because Dempsey will be likely to pick easier propositions for a long time. George B. Underwood, of the Telegram: "To beat Willis, Dempsey would have to call on every bit of ring strategy, skill, speed, heart and punch he possesses. No one knows that any better than Kearns and Rickard. That is why Harry has never been given the championship opportunity, which is clearly entitled to and why he never will be given that opportunity as long as Tex Rickard and Jack Kearns hold the boxing game in the hollow of their hands." * * * Hildale had a glorious week of it last week. They won three games from the Major League All Stars. In this outfit were Perkins, Miller, Dykes, Heimach and Ogden of the "A:s": Burns,, Red Sox; Wilson, Phillies. They broke even with another group of the Athletics, losing the first game at Shetzline park, 11-6. The chances of a Dempsey-Wills match are just as slender as ever. Dempsey's next match will be a return match with either Gibbons or Firpo, whom he can knock out in a round. Firpo soon will sail for the Argentine. He will return next spring with no more experience or skill than he possesses, and with a much duller fighting edge, because he will lack the competition which led up to the last fight with Dempsey. This time Dempsey will not simply stand and slug. He will bring some of his real championship qualifications into play. The one-handed, unschooled Firpo will not be allowed to knock Dempsey through the rope again. You can wager your last simoleon on that. Dempsey never will meet Wills. Wills will be left out in the cold, as usual. Harry will never get the coveted match with Jack. The cards are stacked against him. hands.

On Saturday, at Darby, Phillip, son of Cockrell, showed the "A's" the stuff which makes him the best Negro pitcher in the game. Here is one twirler whose arm and brain coordinate and who has the stark courage which flames into fire when competition is keenest. He set 'em down 3-1. In view of the fact that the Athletics' hurler was one Robert Hasty, suh, of Georgia, a pleasant afternoon was had by all. It is safe to say that he will not take home any reports of that affray.

Lincoln and Hampton in their games here has convinced observers that a high-class team will be backed to the limit. Several persons have talked about the organization of an athletic club. Others have suggested building a team around Griffin and "Lyss" Young, both of whom would be invited to "sit in". As matters now stand, Philadelphia does not have enough first-string players for a good team. Three of our group are on the Amherst College squad, one holding down a regular position at left end. He is Charlie Drew, of Washington. A New York boy and Ben Davis, Jr., of Atlanta, complete the trio.

Smith was knocked out in exactly five minutes and six seconds of fighting in which the white fighter was so completely overwhelmed that he never had a chance to lay a glove on Wills. In superb condition and with the characteristics of that famous "Prince" of the forest from whom he derived his nickname, Wills proved more than a panther in action here Thursday night. He leaped from his corner with the ferocity of a tiger as the bell brought the battlers to the middle of the ring. Unleashing all of the pent-up fury which had been restrained in him for more than a year, and poor Homer Smith, realizing the vital force against whom he was pitted, simply went into his shell and stayed there. Weighing 211 pounds, his real fighting weight, and with his muscles rippling under bronze skin, Wills, with a grim look on his face, entered the ring at the Queensboro Stadium here, eager and restless. Smith, who came in a moment later, took one look at the grim-visaged countenance and then held a conference with himself. Said a conference did not settle much.

Smith had claimed, before the fight, that there was no man living who could hit hardened than Firpo. And he lasted the distance of ten rounds with the Argentinian. Wills' Body Blows. Wills was in wonderful form, and he turned a fusillade of blows that folded Smith up in the very first round. Without landing a blow to the head, Wills rocked his opponent with short, sledge-hammer blows to the body. In less than 45 seconds of fighting, Homer Smith went to the canvas for the count of nine, without having been hit on the jaw. It was these murderous, terrific sweeping drives to the body that doubled him up. These body blows were enough. Each time that Wills drove in, a raw, red bruise showed the spot where those powerful short-arm jabs had landed. Five times in the first round, Wills, whose speed proved a revelation to those who watched him in action, caught up with Smith and landed those decisive, strength-sapping punches. And each time he landed, 'Smith went down. Then came the second round. The Knockout Punch The first blow of the bout, landed by Wills, had been a terrific right undock the heart, and Smith, (hear-in, the birdies), decided that his tough hide was up against a force that, it could not compete with or withstand. Still groggy from the effects of the body punishment he had received in the first round and with nothing to carry him forth but the idea that: Wills might let up.

But the ball was loos when for the second time a forward pass was intercepted. The Lynchburg boys caught their opponents napping in a shift play around left for a gain of 14 yards, but that was as far as they could get. "Bulldog" Williams blocked the kick on fourth down. In the final period, starting from her opponent's 30-yard line, Howard rushed down to the "preachers" 8-yard line. But here the Lord must have heard their prayer for they held like a stone wall, and after four terrific line bucks the Howard lads were still one yard from the goal. Seminary immediately kicked out of danger, and then gave the Howard crowds a scare by intercepting one of Howard's forward passes and running the ball back 20 yards. But the gain was nullified on account of Seminary's offside. In the last few moments of the game, Lawrence lads opened up an aerial attack in a desperate effort to score, but in vain. The game was exciting throughout, and well-played most of the time. Blackman did some skillful piloting for the Howard eleven, and the work of Peyton has already been mentioned. The line showed a much stronger offense and defense than in last week's game. Howard's aerial attack, failed, being intercepted. Credit must be given the Lynchburg lads for the way in which they fought back after the discouragements of the first quarter. The improvement shown by the Howard eleven in its second appearance on the gridiron for this season brought delight to its enthusiastic supporters. The Virginians, who lost the score of 7 to 0 to Howard last year, had boasted that they would at least hold the "Blue and White" eleven to a scoreless tie, but in spite of the heavyweight material which they had brought to do the job they were outwitted and outgeneraled by the Howard boys.

Eleven to Sensational 0-0 Score Work of Fentress, All-American Back and New Backfield Wizard, Features Hard Game. (Special to The Pittsburgh Courier) By Chester L. Washington RICHMOND, Va., Oct. 18. — Old King Football again ascended his throne here last Saturday and looked on with intense delight as the famous Va. Union gridiron aggregation struggled valiantly against the A. S. C. eleven, one of the strongest independent teams in the state. referee's shrill whistle heralded the climax of the battle, the ball not far from mid-field, and the score was 0-0. One of the most sensational games ever witnessed here, featured by brilliant playing, hard plunging, flashy broken line running, and sensational line battling, was enacted when these two elevens, ancient rivals, met to decide which was the superior aggregation in this vicinity. During the second quarter, on A.S. C. S.'s 6-yard line, Al Fentress' line plunge came within four or five inches of being a touchdown. The hard-hitting fullback placed the ball just across the line, but the referee claimed that the ball was grounded within a foot of the goal line. Union had more hard luck when a fumble on the A's 15-yard line lost the ball from what might have been a touchdown. In this initial game, the letter men played a stellar brand of football as usual, but several new "finds" were discovered who will probably help Union to attain the zenith of her gridiron career this season. Outstanding in the backfield was the work of Al Fentress and Julie Martin. Fentress hit and blocked harder than ever and Martin, playing his first game for the Red and Steel aggregation, proved to be a brilliant and sensational half. His ability to return punts and to hit the line and ends for gains was definitely established. Martin gained most ground for Union. Leroy Williams, a valuable addition to the backfield, is a good consistent ground gainer. Miller, guard, former New England High star, is the newest line sensation. His first game for Union endeared him to all Red and Steel followers and he proved to be a hard but clean-cut player. Shields is a good defensive end. Wills and Renault Likely To Meet At Garden, Nov. 3d. NEW YORK, Oct. 18—There appears to be some hitch to prevent the Floyd Johnson—Jack Renault match, scheduled for November 2, at Madison Square Garden, and it is possible that Harry Wills, the Bronze Beauty Panther of New Orleans, will be substituted for Johnson against the suave Canadian Charley Cook, manager of Johnson, had a conference with Tex Rickard Friday and as a result of it there was considerable doubt as to whether the Johnson—Renault affair would take place. Renault, who has improved greatly in the last year, has scored eleven consecutive knockouts pre-winning a decision over Soldier Bickford, a report for nights ago. Bickford regards him as real contender for Jack Dempsey's title. Renault was one of Dempsey's sparring partners when the heavyweight king was preparing for his battle with Georges Carpentier two years ago. Wills has conclusively proven his right to be matched with Dempsey, and it is highly possible, however, probable that the winner of the Wills—Renault fight will meet Dempsey soon. THE PITTSBURGH COURIER The A. S. C.'s put-up a game fight with Ammon, L. T.; Gross, half; Tupponce, Davis, Fuller and Jeffries starring. The good defensive work of Union's ends broke up a continuous aerial attack staged by the A's, for line plunges gained little or nothing through Union's stonewall line. Considering all reports, Union appears to have the best line in the association with Corrothers and Bachachar Smith, ends; Houston and Barksdale, tackles; Miller and W. J. Smith, guards, and Rooks, center. Allen Jackson, the old reliable, kicked off the A's to the 15-yard line and J. Robinson brought the ball up 10 yards. Line plunges by the A's failed and they kicked to Union's 30-yard line. Jackson brought the ball back 20 yards. Both teams were fighting every inch of the way. Hard line scrimmaging featured the entire first half with not much gained. Bacharach Smith, of Union, brought the crowd to their feet in the second half by grabbing a forward pass out of mid-air and gaining 25 yards. forward with only a minute to play, forward with onl ya minute to play, and advanced the ball 40 yards for the A. S. C.'s. Davis, of the A. S. C.'s, proved to be a good field general. Union succeeded in outplaying their guests and, with but one or two exceptions did they allow them to penetrate into their territory. Houston, W. A. Smith, Corrothers, W. J. Smith, Rooks and Barksdale played well, in many instances throwing their opponents back for losses. The lineup: Union—0 A. S. C.—0 Boffman L. E. Robinson, J. Houston L. T. Giles Miller L. G.

Basket Ball Cockrell In Hero Season Opens Role As Hilldale In New York Sweeps Big Series Commonwealth "Big 5" Wins First Game—Ses soms and Fiall in Lineup. (Special To The Pittsburgh Courier) By George M. Bell NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 18—The Commonwealth Big Five opened their season here tonight by defeating the Ascension Aces at the Commonwealth Casino, the home of the MacMahon: Athletic Activities. The team was the first team in the following:: Fat Jenkins, George Flall, Sessoms, Grant and Hubbard. This is the beginning of what should be a bumper season for the 136th St. Boys, although we are not so sure that the other teams here, of which it is rumored there will be many, Bob Douglas, manager of the Spartan Field club, has a contract, it will be a Renaissance Casino, and premise to give us first class attraction every Saturday night. The Commonwealth will without a doubt, have first choice of the best players out East, and we will not be suprised if Posey makes a flying trip to Harlem and take back some of the best players, the other teams will then have to content themselves with what's left. Whether the players making (long) trips to up north enough front to demand recognition, remains to be seen. Success of the latter teams will depend on their ability to cope against the best white teams in the country. Be all this as it may, it appears that Amateur Basketball on a large scale is as dead as the proverbial door nail. There is no sign of action either in 131st St., the domicile of the St. Christopher Club. Over in 138th St., it is alleged, that St. Athena is getting ready to take on the pro-amers. A bloody attack is imminent early last season. Yet quite a lot of things can happen between this writing and mid-winter, and it is quite possible that the two big clubs will bend every effort to bring the youngsters to a sense of their obligation to the race along athletic lines. State Normal Defeated By St. Paul, 70-0 State Normal Defeated By St. Paul, 70-0 (By J. L. Whitehead) LAWRENCEVILLE, Va., Oct. 18. —Holding the visitors at their mercy in every stage of the encounter and playing with consummate skill, St. Paul crushed the pluck and sturdy bunch of lads from the Old North State here today by the score of 70 to 0, despite reliable predictions to the contrary. A large crowd witnessed the one-sided but cleanly played game. In the early minutes of the tilt St. Paul ripped the Tarheels' line to pieces and—smashed their much vaunted aerial attack. St. Paul scored their first touchdown in the first two minutes of play. In an endeavor to make the game interesting from a spectators' point of view, Douglas used his entire squad of 41 players. The team, to solve the problem, however, for the second and third string men added forty points in the second half. The Tigers literally submerged their opponents, who found it utterly impossible to stem the tide of the former's advance and scoring. Drop-Kick and Touchdown Win Over Shaw Univ. By C. A. HARRIS GREENSBORO, N. C., Oct. 18.—A drop-kick by "Bust" Coleman in the first quarter from the 35-yard line and forward pass to "Horse" Lane in the second period heat the tricky formation of Shaw University here today. Shaw tried in vain to pierce the formidable defense of the "Tigers" for a touchdown. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Oct. 18. Playing before more than 30,000 fans in two days, the largest crowds which ever wended their way through the clicking turntiles at Hilldale Park, Phil Cockrell, famous "ace" of the Philadelphia city champions and champions of the Eastern Association, showed the metal of which he is made, when he won two pitching duels, winning the first game from the Major League All Stars, 3-0, and then almost duplicating his feat, when the Athletics were let down 3-1. Atlanta Univ. Defeats Knox By 52-0 Score ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. 18. — The Crimson Hurricane began the season here yesterday by defeating the team from Knox Institute to the tune of 52-0. Playing straight football through the entire game the Crimson backs tore through their opponents' line for long gains almost at will. A scare was thrown into the Atlanta supporters when Knox received the ball from the kick-off and advanced it to their opponents' thirty-five yard line, before being stopped by the safety man, within the first two minutes of play. After that the team from Athens failed to threaten. Coach Aiken made several substitutions, most of the squad getting a chance. Jones at quarter for Knox played a great game. He pierced the much-heavier Crimson line for some good gains. D. Neal and Hall also played a great game for the losers. The scoring consisted of eight touchdowns and four points after touchdown. Morgan Community Squad Re-organized The Morgan Community Basketball Squad have reorganized for the coming season. They are planning to have one of Pittsburgh's best lightweight teams. They will also be coached by Wm. P. Young, captain of the Loendi Basketball team, this year also. The manager of this team would like to hear from the following teams for games in November or December: The Excelsior A. C., Swickley Jrs., Carpe Diem A. C., of New Brighton.

Most of the old members were present, including Buddy Leftridge, Chinn, Moss, Williams, Ken Jones and Alexander Lee. Walter Clark, former Scholastic star and well-known throughout the city for his ability to develop youngsters, will be retained as coach for the Parish house lad.

En Route to Tuskegee Institute Dear Tim: We are now thinking to what extent we will be able to keep an account of the many things that happen in this little world of sport. We told you that things going to be "hot" here in the South this season and we must not be held on a charge of making a fallacious statement. The Crimson Hurricane got under way last Saturday and made an auspicious beginning of the football season. The way those backs charged Knox's line was a real treat to the sidelines. Although the hot weather that day allows them to be going "great guns" now and when the cold snap does come to remain with us a while, Oh boy! Any coach who can be of the material that Coach Alken has to win another championship for Atlanta may not have to spend many restless nights. Did last Saturday's game bring out any faults? I should say it did! But when the Hurricane meets the Tiger on Washington Field in Tuskegee today you may rest assured that these faults will be less glaring than they were in the Knox game. Coach McMorris, who guides the destiny of the backfield, was all in smiles over the work of his charges—and why not? There are a dozen men out for the backfield berths and they are all showing real class. Pates, W. DeLorme, Ollum, Pates, Pierce, Hill-Dorne, Morgan, Callon, Walker and Captain Long. The old jinx seems to be on Captain Lang's trail again this year. He was injured in a scrimmage last week and was not not sible to get into Saturday's fray. It may be well to remind you that injuries kept Captain Lang out of the game for a long period last season. Coach Aiken's line will be strengthened a great deal this week. Ford, last year's varsity guard, will be back in harness; and will in all probability be used in today's game showing up well as end and before the season closes we may see him in many of the approaching struggles. Did you want to know, the final score in last week's game?—Walt Tim, I know you want mind looking over into another column and see it there all for yourself. I don't mind telling you, but I hear the "chief" calling, "all out for Chehaw!" (that's the place where we usually change to get into the little peanut compartment that ushers us into Tuskegee), but it happens that we are making the trip by auto this time. I shall write you again next week and tell you all about our adventures in the Institute town. So long! "Tiny." WHERE THEY PLAY: Atlanta University at Tuskegee Institute (October 20th). Institute (October 20th). Clark University at Morehouse College (October 20th). Morris Brown University at Allen University, Columbia S. C. (October 19th). Knoxville College at Tennessee State, Nashville (October 20th). Montgomery State Normal at Talladega College (October 19th). Johnson C. Smith University at A. & T. College, Greensboro; N. C. (October 19th). Plans are under way for the settlement of the Atlanta-Morehouse controversy of last year. As to what the final outcome will be is a matter of speculation. It is hoped that when the Courier goes to press we shall be able to give football followers a definite statement as to the possibility of a post-season game between these two institutions. Last Saturday the Morehouse Tigers were in the city of Salisbury, N. C., battling the team from Livingstone College to a 6-6 tie. The game was featured by the wonderful playing of Meeks, Livingstone's star tackle. It was this same fellow who attracted much attention in At- SEVEN lanta last fall, when Morehouse defeated Livingstone by his wonderful playing. Meeks was in the main responsible for the defense that stopped the Tiger three times when within striking distance of the goal line last Saturday. The report comes that Livingstone did all she could to stave off defeat in the final minutes of play by taking unwarranted action in calling time out. This has always been a matter of controversy between teams when there is a tie or a close score. Whether there is few minutes to play. Whether there is no time above report we are unable to say, but judging by the past we may say things like that do happen and may be the Morehouse-Livingstone affair was no exception. ATLANTA, Gs., Oct. 15th—Morris Brown continued its winning streak when they defeated Clark last Saturday by a score of 20-7. Coach Addison's team looked good in their performance against Clark. If the team continues its present rate of improvement we may look for some great performances from the Purple and Black machine this season. The boys will stack up against some good opposition in the team from Allen University in Columbia today. If they emerge victorious Coach Addison will add one more pillar to his bridge of victories over which he will try to cross to the goal of greater achievements this fall.

Valley, 26-0 First Real Test Coming in Game With Atlanta University. This Saturday. (Special to The Pittsburgh Courier) TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala., Oct. 18—Long forward passes featured largely in the 26-0 defeat that the Tuskegee Tigers administered to the plucky eleven of the Fort Valley High and Industrial School on Washington Field, Saturday afternoon. Two minutes after the kick-off as a result of a 30-yard pass and a sweeping end run by Wooten, the Tigers placed the pigs behind the players' goal for the first counter of the game. This quickly followed by another touchdown made by the northear line with Wooten again carrying the ball over. Bailey failed to kick the goal each time. This ended the scoring for the first half. Tuskegee playing a defensive game and kicking on the first down. The second half was a repetition of the first half with Smith and Bailey dividing the scoring honors. Bailey was successful in kicking both goals following touchdowns. The second and fourth quarters were ten minutes each by agreement. The Georgia eleven, in holding the heavy Tuskegee Machine to 26-0 defeat won a moral victory and through their pluck won the admiration of the .500 fans who witnessed Tuskegee's first real test comes Saturday afternoon, October 20th, when the Atlanta University, Southern Champion of 1922, invade the lair of the Tiger. The Atlanta eleven administered a 13-0 defeat to the Tuskegee team last year and the Alabama boys are determined to avenge this defeat. The game will begin at 3 P. M.

The Stowe Township Mess FEW days ago, a white man was murdered and the report of the little girl who was with him indicated that the criminal was a black man. This was taken to mean that a Negro murdered the man and assaulted the little girl. During the same week, a Catholic lady shot a priest while at "confession," a headless body of a white man was found in Pittsburgh, and a white criminal confessed that he and his "bandanna gang" had robbed several places and committed several crimes which, until the confession, had never been unearthed. Down in the Stowe Township district, a few whites, organized a vigilance committee to drive out all Negroes residing in the district. They went around to the Negro houses and ordered them away, giving them 12 hours to make ready the exodus. This was done because the white man had been murdered by one Negro. The Negroes, after receiving the "removal notices," went to lawyers of their race for information. They were advised that the "order" was the conduct of fools who knew no better, and that they should remain and protect their homes with a little powder and shot. The officials of the county were notified of what was going to happen in Stowe Township, and sufficient forces were collected to save the "vigilance committee" from slaughter at the hands of the Negroes who had decided to stay right where they were. And they stayed. When the hour for departure came and the sheriff of the county told the "vigilance committee" what the Negroes had been doing all day in preparation for the grand show at night, the crowd dispersed and the township quieted down. This was the end of the Stowe Township mess. Powder and shot around the house is about the most persuasive thing known to the mob. ANNOUNCEMENT has been made by W. & J. authorities that the institution needs funds, and that a "drive" is now on to raise a certain sum for a stated purpose. The whole idea means a larger and better W. & J. The Courier does not hope to make the W. & J. fund swell to the point of over-subscription, but there are a few Negroes who know what W. & J. means to them and to the commonwealth of Pennsylvania. To these Negroes we make the appeal for help. The recent democratic stand taken by President S. S. Baker in his defense of a principal is sufficient argument for us who have a desire to see democracy practiced in our state and nation. A wider diffusion of the W. & J. spirit is needed in Pennsylvania—in Western Pennsylvania—and for this reason a larger force for good ought to be made available at W. & J. Negroes ought to be glad of the opportunity to aid in the propagation of the spirit of fair play, of justice and of a square deal for all men. Opportunity is about all any man ought to have; it is all any real man asks. W. & J. offers every man his opportunity. Whether we have been in attendance at W. & J., or whether we have a college training, or whether we ever expect to attend any school, is not the question. The question is the financing of a larger and better educational center in Western Pennsylvania for all men and women. And every one of us ought to help, whether that help be little or much. It is our opportunity, let us give something to W. & J. Fooling Themselves DOWN in Coraopolis, a little town just outside of Pittsburgh, the K. K. K. donation committee visited a little colored church and donated $45.00 toward the building fund. The reports indicate that the Negroes took the money. The whole system of the Klan is one of deception. They hope to fool a few Negroes into thinking that the Klan is NOT against the Negroes. They are taking money to Negro churches with the hope that these donations will speak louder than words in indicating the friendliness of the-Klan toward the Negro. The Klan is fooling itself. It is rather expensive deception, too. They are laboring under a false impression. Negroes know the Klan is against Negroes, and the knowledge is certain. Negroes have the real goods on the Klan. The constitution of the Klan declares against Negroes, and when a Klansman takes the oath to support and defend the Klan constitution, he swears against the Negro. This constitutional provision is the bed-rock of all Klanism. If the constitution declares against Negroes, how can Klansmen deceive Negroes by handing in a little cash? The Klan is all wrong on the Negro question. The history of the organization is written in Negro blood and mutilation. Negroes are aware of the workings of the Klan. We have a living example of what the Klan thinks of Negroes. That living example is yet in the flesh, thank God, and is living to show what the Klan did to him, his family and his business. He speaks louder to us than any cash collection handed into a frightened congregation. Then, too, the Klan just, as well know that Negroes have discussed the whole scheme. Negroes have decided to take THE PITTSBURGH COURIER Pittsburgh THE Courier AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY all the money in sight handed in by the Klan; but the church never receives the money. The money is employed for other purposes. The Klan ought to know that Negroes are not being fooled and The Courier is fair enough to say to the Klan that these little collections are turned into a different channel from the one the Klan suspects. Certainly, the church of Christ is not a subscriber to the Klan idea as long as Christ, a Jew, is accepted as the founder of the Christian church. Negroes are too religious to take Klan money to build a church for Christ, who, because he is a Jew, is not eligible to join the Ku Klux Klan. The Klan is fooling itself. When the Klan changes its constitution, and its oath, then the Negroes will pay some attention to the "whispered dope" that the Klan is "not after Negroes." "Better to Bear the Ills We Have, Than—" WE ARE hearing a great deal of the proposed modification of the immigration law for the purpose of relieving what is frequently referred to as the labor shortage. To those who feel that an actual labor shortage in this country would create a serious crisis, we have but to refer to the reported activity of the Communist Internationale in this country. It is just probable that the American people would prefer a serious labor shortage to an overthrow of our present system of government. Reliable sources inform us that the Communist organization is zealously at work in this country in an earnest endeavor to conquer our entire industrial system and to convert our farmers and other related groups into one big union under the immediate control of the Communist party with authority coming from Moscow. The activity is divided into several units, all bearing different names, but directed toward the same common end. The Communist party of America, the Trade Union Educational League, the Workers Party of America, are but one great working force divided into as many names and units. Reliable information leads us to believe that as soon as the United States government recognizes Soviet Russia a more active campaign can and will be inaugurated through consulates stationed in every important city in America. The fact that the real purpose of the government at Moscow is known to the government at Washington accounts for the flat refusal of this country to recognize anything bearing the seal and stamp of the Soviet. It can be readily understood what a modification of the immigration law would mean to the propagandists who are seeking every opportunity to advance Bolshevism in this country. To increase the legal quote of foreign elements coming into this country than is now possible under the present law, would mean a multiplication of American agencies devoted to a complete tabulation of every foreign activity; and this would entail enormous cost and an unwieldy organization of defense. This country has not forgotten the embarrassment visited upon it by the foreign element during the World war. The present immigration law was passed to give the Melting Pot a chance to melt the various elements already within our borders. Between a labor shortage and a further surplus of foreign elements calculated to increase our industrial difficulties, we prefer the former. In the light of past experiences we think the law as it stands forms the best line of defense this country has ever established against a Communist invasion. Let the law stand as it is, at least until the invading forces abandon their attack. Our Mary Passes On THE death of Mrs. Mary B. Talbert strikes a cruel blow wherever the sad intelligence finds utterance. We called her Our Mary, and more than ever we feel her great presence, since her spirit has taken leave. Mary B. Talbert was an active figure in Negro life and achievement. She was a leader among the women of the country; she was more than that. She was a leader among the Negroes of the country. Sex leadership was relegated by the indomitable Mary who believed in achievement more than in sex. Whether male or female, any real leader enjoyed the hearty support of Mary B. Talbert. It was her big heart and liberality of spirit that made her the national woman she became. The head of the National Association of Colored Women was but an incident in the life of the tireless Mary. She worked all the time, everywhere, and for everything. She had to take the lead, because constant work puts the worker in the lead. And her leadership was not questioned. Her motives were always high, and her purposes found in the bigger interests of the Negro. When she built to Fred Douglass that lasting monument at Anacostia little did she dream that she was erecting her own monument. Never will the name of Anacostia and Douglass die, nor can the name of Mary B. Talbert be separated from the two. Her life and labors were given to her people, and whatever honors, were hers, she shared them charitably with her own. Her leavestaking gives us sad hearts. We shall miss her active life and her noble deeds. But we shall be made more zealous in our own endeavors because of the inspiration her life and work afford those of us whose hands must take up the great burden she had to lay down. SQUIBBS A white man was shot "dead in his tracks" the other morning by an Italian out in the Homewood district. We are waiting for some Vigilence Committee to order "all Italians" out of Homewood. Governor Pinchot is talking a great deal about Dry Law Enforcement. When he is dead and forgotten, people will be drinking their little "nip before breakfast." And the U. S. Government will still be functioning at Washington. The Stokes trial shows that Negroes can "forget" about as conveniently as white people. But the color scheme in the case forbodes another defeat for Mr. Stokes. ordering Negroes to leave Stowe Township. Letter To The Editor I trust that through your leadership at Pittsburgh, our people will stand by you; that the encouragement and confidence through our people will be precise, and that we shall be inspired with love and stimulate and co-operate ourselves with the inducement of business together that will stand forever as a race of people to live on earth. Editor of The Pittsburgh Courier Pittsburgh Pa. Dear Sir—It is indeed an act of encouragement to me to read an article in the morning paper at Birmingham. Ala., of your stand and bravery at Pittsburgh and of the protest of Chief Braun against the action of the Vilurance Committee Yours very truly. Frank L. Blevins, 1321 Ave "F." Birmingham, Ala. Ringing With Truth Among recent editorials in our colored papers we glean earnest thought and fact. Important issues have been discussed and reasonable solutions to difficult problems submitted. But we have chosen from the many three of peculiar interest; and particular fact. The Chicago Whip, under the title "Tragic Booze," gets to the marrow of a tragic truth. It follows in its entirety: The United States Attorney-General reported to the President recently that the period since the ratification of the Volstead Amendment has been the most tragic in American history. Graft, corruption, bribery and bootlegging have sunk their fangs into the very vikids of the nation, he declared. From his point of view it was not particularly tragic that in certain parts of the country several millions of native-born Americans have for fifty years been denied the right to vote. Neither did he see tragedy in the fact that on many occasions they have been beaten, shot, murdered, hanged and burned when they approached the polls. The tragedy to which the Attorney-General refers, however, has brought unprecedented wealth and prosperity to those very people who suffered the disfranchisement the Attorney-General and the entire country choose to ignore. One might just as truthfully say that the period since the ratification of the Volstead Amendment has been the most prosperous Black People have ever experienced. Sleeping car porters have bought hundred thousand dollar flat buildings and retired. Waiters have thrown down their trays and gone into business for themselves. Lodging-house landlads have bought furs and diamonds and hired maids. Physicians now feel that the government has given them a $1,200 a year pension with their 400 liquor prescriptions, and the corner druggist has thrown away his pestle and mortar. They see nothing particularly tragic about the situation. Ill gotten gains, indeed, but who is to blame? For many years Black men in the South stood helplessly and hopelessly watching the remorseless and ruthless violation of an amendment to the Federal Constitution. They knew well that local laws condoned and sanctioned disfranchisement, segregation, and jim-crowism, and when they learned to their grief that the South despised and scorned with impunity the highest law of the land, they began to evince a contempt for it, too. Now that the infraction of Federal law starts a stream of gold into their pockets they cannot see where it is nearly so tragic as the doublebarreled shotguns of Southerners barring them from the ballot boxes. America would not enforce the enfranchisement amendments, now she cannot, apparently, stop bootlegging. Laws cannot be enforced willy-nilly. Disrespect for one breeds contempt for all. 来 欢 家 乐 奉 荣 Another from the Florida Sentinel tells of the "tyranny" practiced in Jacksonville. It si entitled, "Another Outrage," as most will agree after careful reading: Out of a budget which involves over a million and a half dollars the City Council set aside $65,000 for miscellaneous purposes, included in that budget the following items: $600 for the Colored Old Folks' Home; $240 for the Army of Rescue and Religion. The total appropriations for Colored amounting to $840. Such an inequality in the appropriation of the public funds cannot and should not be overlooked by the Negro citizens of Jacksonville. That it is unfair is obvious. The Negro population of Jacksonville is at least forty per cent of the whole, and those Negroes pay into the coffers of the city a proportionate amount of the taxes. In the distribution of public funds there should be no discrimination whatever, regardless if he is a taxpayer or not. The argument is used as an excuse to justify such unequal appropriations, that the majority of Negroes are renters. This does not in any way exclude him from receiving a share of the funds adequate for his needs. Every man or woman that rents a house, rents a store, operates a business house or drives a team is a taxpayer. The landlord is not the taxpayer, though he may be the direct medium of collecting. If the argument is used that more consideration is not due the Negro because he rents, then common sense and consistency would exclude every white man who rents from enjoying the public conveniences provided. In other words, if the direct taxpayer is the only one to benefit from public distribution of funds, every public convenience should be offered to persons who are not taxpayers. Against this argument, what of the Negro landlord and property owner? If the public funds are being given to these only, who are direct taxpayers, certainly the Negro taxpayer should be given consideration. The inequality of the appropriations in this city and county is so bold and so flagrant that it is nothing less than an outrage. The third speaks very plainly about the modern dance and dance hall. It isn't just what our young and old, too, want to hear, but it is truth and should be heeded and practiced. The Norfolk Journal and Guide is the paper carrying the article. It says, in part: There is no question that the modern dance as practiced in unregulated places is demoralizing, and rightly deserves the denunciation of the press and pulpit. That there is evil in dancing without the immoral embellishments attached to it by the modern day craze is a question as old as the ages and one upon which mortal man will never agree, but we do not have to have an exceptionally keen sense of discrimination between the vulgar and the aesthetic to become convinced that some of the fads we have seen indulged in by our young people and old people, too, as terpsichorean art are positively degrading. There is but little that can be said in favor of the modern dance hall, and whenever we see a new one coming into existence we naturally feel skeptical and fearful for the well being of our people. We may not find it easy to eliminate them, but we can handle it and we can be the best agency for that regulation is the municipality. However, municipal regulation cannot be entirely effective without a large measure of responsibility for the conduct of these places attaching to the owners and lessees. Advertising Talk SATURDAY, OCTOBER OPINION By Chandler Owen Editor Messenger Magazine White Supremac Shaky White Supremacy Shaky WHOM the gods would destroy they first make The much-vaunted superiority of the white being challenged as never before in these States. Despite all bars and obstacles the black brid proving every day that he is the equal and often the man of the whites. In business, athletics, music, art, literature industry and general culture, he is alarming his brother by his rapid strides. Naturally no one likes to his position endangered by an "inferior." How can we serve the myth of white superiority when Negroes of and courage in every walk of life are capturing first play All around us we see the answer: Refuse to emigrate in the skilled and professional positions. Don't play in the baseball with him when you can prevent it, or allow him join your teams. Segregate him and discriminate him at every opportunity. Don't allow him an inch be we know he is capable of taking a mile. What then be become of our much vaunted "Nordic" ascendence? It is this dreadful fear of the Negro and the other er peoples, capturing all the coveted prizes; intellec economical, artistic and athletic, that constitutes the function for the spirit of Ku Kluxism possessed by nine-tenths our white brethrem. Is the Negro an intelligent, workman, liable to become a property owner? Then the God of America is Property, we must, by hook or keep him as far removed from the deity as possible, well known methods—discrimination and segregation the Negro a great athlete? Then we must refuse to play baseball or tennis with him, or allow him to compete any championship contests. Is the Negro a great athlete? Then we must do everything to discourage him. Is the great scholar? Then we must do everything to pro him from showing up the ignorance of second-rate boys and girls. But the black brother seems to get on closer to laurels, whether or no. Despite everything his ruddy friend has done, he continues to threaten the seals mighty. Even though the white papers do soft-pedic achievements of Negroes, the pale-face brethren in the are beginning to feel insecure. The fear that they may be as superior as they have always believed—is grief their hearts as never before. The idea of Negroes on banks, Locomobiles, mansions! The destruction of a great idea is underway. The general panic of "Nordic" America, force is resorted the only alternative to stem the rising tide of color threatening white world supremacy. So we have Johan Stowe and the Indiana deportations. How often will this happen in the future, with the brethren making rapid strides every day? No one has one thing, however, the Negro must resolve to do future: Not to leave his home and run away every time white man shoves a Ku Klux letter under his front. Such conduct is inexcusable in people aspiring to full hood rights. A man's home is his castle and he has a yes, a duty, to defend it. There are times to go and are times to stay, but there is no special virtue in consist Negroes are coming North in droves. Good! They for expedient not to stay any longer in the South. It was to go, when Northern industry and better living conditions beckoned. Now the Negroes are here. It is time to stay, at time to go, even when warned by a vigilance committee the Negro could stand the endless drill, confinement, gation and discrimination of the cantonments in this country and the filth, vermin, danger, disease, death and suffering experiences in France, to make the world safe democracy, surely he should be willing and anxious to America safe for himself.

MONDAY AND TUESDAY (October 22-23) ELMORE THEATRE VICTOR HUGO HALPERIN'S TEA with a KICK! 27 STARS in a harmonious blend of every type "Broadway Gold" Is a Romance of New York's "White Way" "Broadway Gold," with Elaine Hammerstein in the role of a young show girl, and with Elliot Dexter and Kathlyn Williams in other important roles, will have its premiere at the Elmore theater next Wednesday and Thursday. This picture, which was produced under the supervision of Edward Dillon, is a screen adapta' on W. Wonderley Carey's story which was a feature in the recent issues of Young's Magazine. It deals with the typical Broadway crowd of hard working chorus girls, and of the types known as gold diggers. Mr. Dillon has skillfully used the glittering and frosty background of New York's night life as the setting for the unfolding of a life he has made beyond the critiques he has successfully carried out his intention of making a picture, unmusical for its dramatic elements, and at the same time kept it from overstepping the bounds of probability or possibility. Miss Hammesterstein never has looked lovelier than she does as the bright and particular star of "Broadway Gold." Kathlyn Williams is the embodiment of a wise veteran in ways of the stage and the tricks of stage-door Johnnie. Elliot Dexter plays the part of one of these "absolutely rich" daddies who finds that the simple love of a plain little chorus girl is far better than the blondishments of the butterfly type. The picture was produced with a lavish hand, and certainly cost a pretty amount, but the results are evident. Rijs scenes depicting many of the palatial dance and eating places are eye-ravishing in their tail and beauty. She simply sail about under the glided domest in very lined pools as the gay and carish thighs sink forbidden waters away to the strains of the latest jazz on the dance floor. Certainly Mr. Dillon and his company have caught the note of glamour and fantastic atmosphere which is associated with Broadway in the popular mind. In order to keep the movie spectator from being bored, there are two thrilling auto wrecks, a murder mystery and hosts of divinely formidable villains. Each person themselves for the edification of the Broadway habitue. THE PITTSBURGH COURIER Photo of "Our Bessie" A handsome autographed photo of Bessie Smith, the great blues singer, will be given to all patrons of Goldman & Wolf, uptown's leading use shop, 1621 Center avenue, who purchase one on the side. The photo is done in rich-toned sepia, and sitable for framing. A. "The World's a Stage' Tears Mask Off Life The picture deals with the experiences of a stage actress, connected with a barnstorming Shakeyra trump which becomes stranded. An occasion comes when she to read the screen a new personality. She is overjoyed, particularly so when she discovers that love is offered in the bargain. However, her happiness is short-lived. And though her home life is a living nightmare of disillusionment and despair, she continues to mask her emotions before the camera. Ultimately, real love triumphs and a lasting happiness is her reward. Miss Phillips considers the role of Jo Bishop in "The World's a Stage" her greatest, because it comes the closest to real life. Roland Hayes to Sing with Famed Boston and Detroit Symphony Orchestras Roland Hayes to Sing with Famed Boston and Detroit Symphony Orchestras FRIDAY AND SATURDAY (October 26-27) ELMORE THEATRE Pierre Monteux, the conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, was so impressed by the singing of Roland Hayes, the colored tenor who has had such a great success in London, Paris and Vienna, that he named him as a first choice for soloist at the regular Boston Symphony Concerts for the coming season in Boston. This appearance will open the American tour of Roland LIQUOR SLEUTHS ORDER TEA—GET TEA—WITH A KICK LIQUOR SLEUTHS ORDER TEA—GET TEA—WITH A KICK Thirsty Law Enforcers Find Beverage Has Real Kick in It. Two hungry Prohibition agents yesterday dropped into Egg Pope Yung chop suey parlor, near the railroad section, and ordered chop suey with tea. "You like hot tea, you like cold tea?" inquired the almond-eyed Celestial who waited on them. "Tea-with a kick!" they said, with a wink. The tea was served in a regulation Chinese teapot. "Two dollars, please," announced the bland waiter. Both agents took a swallow of the "tea," then arrested the waiter and the proprietor on charges of selling "tea—with a kick!" Three extra gallons were seized. At court, the judge pointed out to the prisoners that "TEA—with a KICK" was perfect use in the situation, which will appear at the Elmore theater, but that for the chop suey parlor to sell it was not so good. "Thirty days!" said the judge. moved the critics of Boston to special comment as follows: Philip Hale, Boston Herald, Sept. Hayes, which is to begin in November. The announcement of the fact 13, 1923— "It is a pleasure to find the name of Roland Hayes in the list of soloists. He richly deserves the honor." H. T. Parker, Boston Transcript, Sept. 8, 1923— "Mr. Hayes, the tenor, at last and deservedly summoned in his own country to an orchestra of the first rank." Peffield Roberts, Boston Globe, Sept. 9, 1928— "The proportion of first-rate newcomes (in the list of soloists) is unusual. Many among the loquacious interested in music will be especially glad to see Roland Hayes' name in the list, where it might well have appeared several seasons back. He is as great a musician as Boston has yet produced, and now not without honor in his own country. "He has sung with several leading European orchestras, and won the highest praise everywhere, not as a Negro singer, but as one of the few really fine tenors to be heard in this generation, regardless of racial and national considerations." Mr. Hayes is also engaged as soloist for the concerts of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. His short tour of two months was Boston, Chicago, Baltimore, Washington, Richmond, Raleigh, Nashville, Louisville, Providence, New Haven, Toronto, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Buffalo and other cities.

Paramount Reco Officers Get Story Mixed Up; Man Goes Free WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 18- A wide variance in the evidence of two internal revenue agents- Thomas E. Wheeler and George Kling-prosecuting Daniel Henderson, in the United States branch of Police Court last week on charges of violating the national prohibition law and of carrying a deadly weapon, resulted in both cases against the defendant being dismissed. Judge McMahon, in dismissing the cases, said he would be frank to say that he would not convict a dog on such evidence and ordered the return of the pistol to Henderson. The revenue agent first testifying was not heard by the other revenue agent, who had been sent out of the courtroom. One agent testified that Henderson had the pistol in his pocket, when arrested. The other agent told an entirely different story, saying the pistol was found on a lounge. The defense claimed it was taken from the mantlepiecer. The conflicting testimony of the officers in the case forced the court to the conclusion that none of the evidence was true, and all charges were dismissed.

THE PITTSBURGH COURIER Children Increase In Philadelphia Children Increase In Philadelphia There are more Negro children six to sixteen years of age in the city today than there were a year ago, according to the figures that have just been compiled by the Bureau of Education in making the school census. The total number of children of all races of these ages is [greater], however, due to a large increase in the Negro population, for there has been a significant increase in Southern states during the last 12 months. In all there are 335,569 children of this age in the city. This includes children whether they are attending public, private, or other schools or at all because of ill health or other reasons. This is an increase of 3,238 more than the census showed last year at this time. According to the educational department, this increase is due entirely to the Negro and Mongolian population. There are actually twenty-five fewer white children of this age today than last year. This is laid to two causes: First, the care with which children are taken into the schools, for birth certificates are now required as proof of age, while formerly children of five years of age were often entered by their parents as six or even seven years old. The careful check-mind of these children is to reduce the false registrations and lower the total number of children attending schools. It is also thought that the war had some effect, for children born in 1917, or early 1918 would have been more likely to be birthed in institution figures for "those years show that there was a slight falling off for 1918 in the birth rate, while the infant mortality rate increased due to the epidemic of Influenza.

This is done because the average Negro is busy trying to make business happen.

A. and its political department has made an exhaustive study of the man who they are putting before the public and is now ready to offer a ticket which any self-respecting Negro can vote with or for injury to himself or to his race. The U. N. I. A. and its political department are supporting one man who is truly an accepted type of Americanism. This man is James Watkins, who was born in England and who is now a lawyer. This man came up from the ranks of a common family and he needs no big voice behind him to solicit your sympathy and support. He is not a Ku Klux Klan and would not be if he could. We cannot say as much about him. We cannot say as much about James Watkins is pust a plain man with plain and simple convictions for what is just and fair.

One day she went oft into the garden to gather some beans for dinner... When she ‘was putting them into the pot te boil one of them fell throagh her fingers to the floor. “Hello, old bean,” said a piece of straw whlch was lying near. “Hello,” said the bean. Then sud- denly’a burning coal flew out of the fire and. landed hear them. “Look ont!” shouted the bean and the straw together. “You are -hot. Do ‘not come near us for you will burn ‘us up.” “We have all had a narrow es- cape,” said the coal."“I ‘saw the straw slip through the woman's fingers when she’ was throwing a bundle of his cémrades on to the fire, and I saw the bean escape in a similar fashjon.-1 myself had to jump out of the fire in order not to be burned to ashes.” . “We cannot stay. here;” sald--the straw. “She woulil catch us again if we did,” said the bean. “Let-us gh sut'into the world,” said the coal. So they went out in to the world so that the woman couldn’t catch them, and they had not gone far be- fore they came tb a river whieh did not-have a bridge. They were’ puz- led at first to Know :how to get agross, but finaily the straw laid himself across the stream and told his two companions that they could walk over him to the other shore. “I will go first,” said the coat rath- er impolitely. He started out, but when he reacher the middle of the | strgam he was sd frightened that he stood still, and his knees .trembled. Now the. coal was still hot, and it was not long before he had burned a hole right through the straw. The both of them fell into the river arid were not seen again. The bean, who was .still on-3he shote, thought that this was ¥ary funny,-and he laughed’ so hard ¢hat! he burst right open. Had not a tafiée been passing at that time, the bean, would have met a worse fate, thet that of his comrades, but the guéd tailor sewed him up with 2 nee! ‘and thread that he Tock dom hat “pocket, and the bean was once mov as good as new. He thanked biti very much for being so kind. - $= It is too bad that the tailor uyed black thread with which to sew-y the bean for ever since that dey af beans have had a black mark déw them. at For the Kiddies; — The Pittsburgh: Couriers SCATTERAT PAGE - yee with ‘ne Comic Cartoons ,?
