DR. REED DELIVERS WONDER
FULLECTURES IN OHIO.
(Special to Richmond Planet.)
Las' Sunday at the Antioch Baptist Church, this city, the Rev. Dr. Daniel L. Reed delivered a wonderful sermon with telling effect to more than 500 people on the subject, "The Black Man's Hope in America." After having graphically told of the many disheathing and discouraging things thru which the Negro Race is passing in America, he is most eloquent language pictured the hopes of the black race thru all of its adversities. Dr. Reed declares, if God's word be true, the white race must reap what it has sown.
As a lecturer, he is styled in this city as second only to Roscoe C. Simmons; but few men lecture with the zeal and fervency of Lieutenant Reed.
The Planet predicts for him a brilliant career as a platform orator, and he bids fair to become the rival in eloquence and oratory the noted Roscoe C. Simmons.
DR. REED SPEAKS.
Criticizes the White Lady From the State of Georgia.
The Editor of the Planet,
Sir. It seems to be a new southern trick to write damaging things against colored people and declare "I am a northerner." Let this charming northerner living in Valdosta, Georgia give the post office of her northern home, and her name when she lived there. Unless they are willing to do this they will be considered southerners of the peace-breaking variety. If the southern white people would look after their own criminals they would not have so much time to mistreat and prohibit free speech among colored people.
Very truly yours.
—W. B. REED.

In Memoriam
In memory of my wife, Mrs. Elizabeth Walker Deane, died Nov. 18, 1934.
Dearest darling, thou has left us
And we long for thee in vain,
But we know that thou art loved
From all earthly care and pain.
Home sweet home sunshine comes to vanish,
As thy face no more we see,
And with thy loving presence
It is no more home can be.
The folowers we lay upon her greens
May wither and decay,
But fresh and green in her memory
With our hearts shall stay.
She was a bud that God gave us,
But just as it was opening in the glory of the day,
Down came the heavenly angels
And took our bud away.
Love me darling that I know.
None can love so well as thou,
Was it not upon thy breast
I was taught in sleep to rest.
Didst thou not in hours of pearl
Lull this head to ease again,
With the music of thy voice,
And did my little heart rejoice.
At rest four years ago November 18th, 1919.

His funeral took place Friday, November 14th, from the Sharon Baptist Church of which he had been a member since its organization from which time he served as usher until his heath began to fail.

His remains were laid to rest In Woodland Cemetery.

In Memoriam.
In memory of my wife, Mrs. K. Kane
Walker Deane, died Nov. 18, 1923
Dearest darling, thou has left us:
And we long for thee in vain.
But we know that thou art freed
From all earthly care and pain.
Home sweet home sunshine seems
to vanish.
The fowers we lay upon her grass
May wither and decay,
But fresh and green in her necessity.
With our hearts shall stay.
She was a bud that God gave us,
But just as it was opening to the glory of the day,
Down came the heavenly angel.
And took our bud away.
Love me darling that I know.
None can love so well as thou;
Was it not upon thy breast
I was taught in sleep to rest.
Didst thou not in hours of pain
Lall this head to case again,
With the music of thy voice
And did my little heart rejoice.
At rest four years ago November 18th, 1919.

THE SPACE
FOUR DEMOCRATS JOIN WITH
REPUBLICANS.
Held That Its Adoption Cuts Heart
Out of Peace Treaty.
PLAN FOR FINAL ACTION.
Washington, Nov. 13.—Squarely joining the issue with President Wilson the Senate adopted today a reservation qualifying the obligations of the United States under Article X of the league of nations covenant.
A solid Republican line-up, re-enforced by four Democratic votes, put the reservation across exactly as it came from the Foreign Relations Committee and in the very way in which the President declared on his Western tour would cut the heart out of the covenant and mean the rejection of the treaty. The vote by which the reservation won was 46 to 33.
The fight for reservations having thus been carried to a climax, the Republicans presented for future action a cloture proposal designed to bring final action on the question of ratification within a week. A less sweeping measure, proposing limitation on the reservation debate only had been put in by the Democrats earlier in the day, but was rejected by the Republicans to sustain a point of order against it.
VOTE ON CLOTURE SATURDAY.
A vote on the question of clamping down a cloture on debate will come Saturday morning and the Republican leaders say it will depend entirely on the Democrats whether the move rallies the necessary two thirds to make cloture effective. The Democratic leaders were not ready tonight to say how they would vote be fearful that agreement to so sweeping a program might imperil their chances to secure action on a ratification resolution of their own.
The Article X reservation as adopted by the Senate follows:
"The United States assumes no obliqation to preserve the territorial integrity or political independence of any other country or to interfere with controversies between nations—whether members of the league or not—under the provisions of Article X, or to employ the military or naval force of the United States under any article of the treaty for any purpose unless in an particular case the Congress, which under the Constitution, has the sole power to declare war or authorize the employment of the military or naval forces of the United States, shall by act, or by joint resolution so provide."
In only two particulars does this language differ from the proposed reservation which the President declared at Cheyenne, Wyo., he would be obliged to regard as a rejection. As read by Mr. Wilson the phrase "under the provisions of Article X." occurred at a different place, and the final word "provide" was changed to "declare."
VOTE ON RESERVATION
The roll call on the committee reservation follows:
For adoption—Republicans: Ball, Borah, Brandegee, Calder, Capper Cott, Cummins, Curtis; Dillingham; Edge, Elkins, Fall, Fernald; France Frelenghuysen; Gronna, Hale, Harding; Johnson (California) Kenyon; Keyes, La Follette; Lenroot, Lodge, McCumber, McLean, McNary; Moses, New, Norris; Page, Penrose, Phipps, Poindexter, Sherman; Smoot, Spencer; Sterling, Sutherland; Townsend Warren and Watson.

UNION AND HOWARD TIE
With an idea day at hand and the field in excellent playing condition, the heavy Howard eleven battled the strong Virginia Union University to a 7-7 draw. Both teams were very evenly matched. The capitol city boys caught the Richmonders off their guard in the first quarter by wide and sweeping end runs, but on the other hand the red and steel cut loose
an aerial attack that completely be wildered the blue and white.
The echo of the referee's whistle was heard when Hucle's mighty toe sent the pigskin soaring towards the blue and white goal line. Hughes attempted to bring the punt back up the field, but was swamped with Union tacklers on the twenty-five yard line. Then Howard attempted her first end run which netted her ten yards. Here the Unionies held the Howardites for downs and forced their opponents to kick. "Midget" Williams returning fifteen yards. The visitors opened their air attack when Hucle shot a short pass over the line to McGuinn who missed. "Midget" Williams startled the spectators by racing around left end and was not checked until he was fifteen yards beyond the line. Another pass to Taylor netted eight more yards. Here Union lost the ball when Hucles fumbled. Howard then began her drive up the field sweeping the Unionites off their feet by line plunges over tackle and fast end runs. The quarter ended with the ball on Union's five yard line.
SECOND QUARTER.
Howard was held for three downs, but on the fourth Carter made a short pass to Brown who scampered over line and for the first time in three years Union's goal line was crossed. Angered at this, the red and steel cy clone received the kick and swept up field. Passes to McGuinn and Taylor an offtackle run by Gregory and an end run by Hucles carried the pigskin to Howard's ten yard line. Captain Taylor was called back and by two successive plunges went over. Hucles kicked and evened the score.
THIRD QUARTER.
The third quarter was chiefly an exchange of punts. Howard played mostly on the offensive and at one time carried the ball to Union's five yard line but was held for downs. In midfield the heavy blue and white backs were too much for the Union line and continued to hammer on its weak spot.
FOURTH QUARTER.
In this quarter the Hulces-Taylor combination tried vainly for a touchdown and to break the deadlock. Hulces attempted to dropkick from the forty yard line but his trusty too failed in this critical moment, and the red and steel chances of winning went a glimmering. Captain Taylor was easily the star of the game. He is without doubt the greatest end ever developed among the colored colleges
Line-up as follows:

UPHOLDING LAW IN TENNESSEE
Nashville, Tenn. — Tennessee wants law and order, and proposes to get what it wants. People usually do in the long run—if they want hard enough; and it looks like getting down to business here.
First came a conference in the capitol building—the governor, heads of all state departments, citizens from 50 odd towns, delegates from the big Associations—Bar, Merchants, Bankers—and from Chambers of Commerce, Rotary Clubs, and the like; mayors, preachers, editors of the daily papers heads of all the state's leading schools and colleges, and a good-size group of colored men. They plan to put the state at the head of the column in law-enforcement; and they individually pledged themselves "to the point of life if necessary" to make the plans good.
The experiment of state police at the governor's call is succeeding; and certain mayors have adapted the idea to local needs by forming local volunteer police reserves for use in emergency. This pla nwas indorsed for general use. The sheriffs of two counties—Knox and Shelby—have by courage and resourcefulness prevent ed mob violence; and courts of these counties have given prompt trial to those accused of grave crimes. To spread this spirit and to educate the youth of the state the governor, as requested by the conference has appointed a Law and Order Week for the middle of November. The program includes proclamations by mayors, a law and order program in every public and private school in the state, meetings of Chambers of Commerce and civic organizations a sermon by every minister in Tennessee a charge by every judge, resolutions by every club and other organization and editorsial and other publicity in the papers.
It is safe to say that law and order, thus championed, need fear neither race hatred nor alien bolshervism, those two blatant enemies of American government.

$500,000 TRUST COMPANY TO BE LAUNCHED BY COLORED MEN.
Founder of Standard Life Insurance Company Conters with New York Capitalists.
From Thompson's National News Bureau, 1221 S. SL., N. W., Washington, D. C.
Washington, D. C., Nov. 12—Fresh from New York City, where he spent a week or ten days in conference with Capitalists who control millions Herman E. Perry president of the Stand ard Life Insurance Company, of Atlanta, Ga., stopped over in Washington this week enroute South, and anounced the formal launching of a campaign to put over a financial venue of tremendous importance to the colored people, to be known as the Citizens' Trust Company.
This is the only financial corporation to be controlled by colored people favorably passed upon by the Capital Issues Committee of the 6th Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, Ga. and also by the Capital Issues Committee of the U. S. Treasury Department at Washington, D. C., The new financial institution is to be under national and state supervision. The institution is to have a capital of $250,000 and a surplus of an equal amount—$250,000. Aside from a regular banking and trust business, special emphasis will be given to assisting colored people in purchasing and building homes, and in securing farm properties on long time payments and at low rates of interest. The development of colored business concerns and industrial corporations will receive special attention. The new concern will be national in scope with brance offices in many important centres.
Mr. Perry explained his plans in full detail to the officers of one of the largest trust companies in New York and is to be guided in the formation and operation of the Citizens Trust Company by these trained experts. He has been assured substantial encouragement in the carrying out of his plans.
KINDS OF CIDER
The announcement of the acting Collector of Internal Revenue at Boston that the manufacture and sale of pure apple juice, fermented or otherwise, is still legal will be a relief to thousands of farmers. Mr. Casey's warning that conditions will be different after January 16, when the Prohibition Amendment will forlift the sale of any intoxicating beverage, probably will spur the elder mill men to get rid of their stock be fore that time.
Rural New York and New England are sopping with cider this fall. Up in Maine and out on Long Island the only apples which escape the commercial cider mill and the home press are those for which the apple sauce canners pay a good price. Why should not the man with an orchard make the mill hum when he is getting 40 cents a gallon, or about $20 a barrel? The farmer with enough apples for a thousand barrels makes a heat for tune in a single season. Old whiskey barrels, which once brought $1 in the cider business are selling at $10 in Connecticut now.
Cider of all kinds is the farmer's pecuniary blessing. Cider of the hard est kind is the farmhand's curse. For there are three kinds of cider. The first is plain apple juice, fresh from the press, innocent as a dewdrop and sweet as the sugar you can't buy.
The second is the juice after it has spent a fe wdays in the barrell and has developed a fizz reminiscent of champagne and a tang like the air of a perfect November day. This is the draught that goes best with the turkey and cranberries. At its finest it is as delicate as Rhino wine.
The third kind of cider is seven devils. It is the juice that is too evil to become even good vinegar. It is sold in jugs, carried across fields in jugs and drunk from jugs, gurling as it goes on its sinister errand. It makes first drunkards. It is the last resort of drunkards. It brings with it rheumatism, sciatica, hardening of the arteries, delirium tremens and death. It burns down houses, breaks up homes, lets crops rot in the field and turns shotguns on neighbors. It does not need to be mixed with whiskey thereby becoming "stone-fence". Beelzebub does not need to be accompanied by a minor fiend. Taken in sufficient quantity, plain hard cider has everything that whiskey carries and a bit more. Forty cents worth of whiskey would get no man drunk, but 40 cents worth of hard cider would stagger anybody.
The peculiar fact about elder's relation to prohibition is that, while no law will prevent the farmer from selling pure sweet apple juice, no law will keep the new owner from letting the juice become the worst tipple that this country has known. (N. X. Sun, National 1991)

and conference between white and black.
Immediately following this statement the industrial Relations Committee of the Interchurch World Movement has issued a report adopted at its October conference. "Big business" was well represented at this meeting, which stood for the solution of industrial problems by the principles taught by Christ. On the initiative of Southern delegates the report recognizes "the right of our twelve million Negro follow Americans to economic justice and to free clom from economic exploitation."
Later in the month the General adopted a broad program of wider Convention of the Episcopal church service to Negro Americans. It also voted to give the ballot in the House of Bishops to the suffragan bishops, two of whom from Arkansas and South Carolina, are Negroes. A third colored suffragan is to be added for Liberia, where he will work as do those in the states mentioned under the white bishop in charge.

Columbus, O., Nov. 11.—The Ohio Supreme Court today awarded $230
messages (case from Butter Co.) to
Martin Beatty (White,) under Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Mob Violence or Anti-Lynching law, Beatty was beaten during the molders' strike at Hamilton in 1915.
It seems that in providing for the protection of colored people in Ohio, white people were also the beneficiaries of this legislation. And so it goes.

When a man first purchases an automobile, he is happy and at the end of the first week, he is still in good humor. After the first month, he begins to realize the seriousness of the transaction and after three months, he begins to try to find out how he can best get rid of the machine without the loss of too much money on the purchase price and without arousing the curiosity of his neighbors as to what has become of the machine.
If he has a family, he begins to add up the family items of expenses and those entailed by the use of the machine. When he finds that one is trying to out run the other, he puts the machine in the garage and he lets it stay there, being confident that the expense on the one is halted a bit, while the other is marching grandly onward.

Rev. Dr. Harvey Johnson, in an open letter to the Baltimore American says that the people in this country or rather some of them call naturalization, Americanization. He shows that a citizen of the United States is not an American citizen. We do not see that there is any room for argument. Dr. Johnson, is standing upon a platform of truth and facts and he will find it a difficult task to find men in this day and time, who will do the same thing. This is an age when men will not stand sound doctrine and when the utterings of the stolies, the philosophers and the followers of the good and lowly Jesus are regarded with amusement and derision.
Still, it is this distinguished theologian's duty to "cry aloud and spare not." Bread cast upon the waters may return again after many days."
THE WORLD'S MARKETS
The wage situation in this country is not generally understood and the conditions confronting the men in charge of the industrial and financial not realized. This war was largely due to commercialism. That is a desire to control the world's trade, Germany, and Great Britain were foremost rivals. The position of the United States of America and France can be readily understood.
Germany was halted in her ideas of world commercial supremacy, but it left Great Britain crippled with the United States as her most dangerous competitor. All signs indicated that this country would supplant the British in the world's markets. Japan was anxious too and had taken pains to place herself in a position of vantage. Just as the men of finance and business were preparing to take advantage of the situation and to supplant both Great Britain and Germany, the laboring elements assorted themselves and demanded increase in wages that seem to be fabulous.
Wat did this mean? If men in Germany work for $1.50 and $2.00 per day in the manufacture of commercial goods and the men in Great Britain do the same thing, how can the exporters of the United States compete in the markets of the world, when this labor is costing them from $4.00 to $40.00 per day? The result will be to drive "Made in the United States" goods off the foreign markets and to confine the sale of the same to the people of the United States by erecting a Protective Tariff Wall high enough to keep foreign made goods out of this market.
To make it plainer, if a suit that sells for $40.00 in the United States can be sold in Berlin or London for $15.00, the Government will charge a tariff of a little more than $25.00 to permit these foreigners to put these goods upon the market in this country. But what about the markets outside of this country? The foreigners will not need any protective tariff against the United States merchants for the reason that, when the freight charges are added, the American goods cannot be sold as cheap as those made in Great Britain an' Germany and as a result must either be brought back to New York or be sold at a sacrifice in the foreign markets
When these facts are presented to the labor unions they become both deaf dumb and blind and insist upon living wage scale, regardless of any one else. What can be the remedy? And an attempt has been made to remedy this situation by calling a world's industrial conference at Washington, D.C., connection with the Peace Treaty. There, they are striving to accomplish the impossible by having the condition of the laboring classes one and the same the world over.
It is an undertaking gigantic in its conception and largely ephemeral in its results. If the wages of the world's
workers are practically the same, then the selling prices will be practically the same. So far as we are concerned, the efforts of the thorists to bring about Utopian cond join bring to us temporary amusement with the sure knowledge that practical common sense will yet be triumphant and those who have deceived the people for so many years will ultimately retire from the public rostrum in evidence confusion.
There are laws of supply and demand; there are the rights of the majority and the minority and there are bed-rock principles as firm and as everlasting as Eternity. The little men, both State and National, who seek temporary notoriety and financial reward will soon prove a discomfited set, driven out of the temple of knowledge and legislation by the wrath and indignation of a thoroughly aroused deceived people.
LAROHE-WILSON COMPACT IS
SERVED BY PRESIDENT
Administration Reverses Attitude Adopted During Passage of Adamson 8-How Law
100%
Washington, Nov. — it is daily becoming more apparent at the National Capital that the forces on or organized labor and the Administration have had a turning out which is hard to be reflected in the campaign of 1920.
That there was a close alliance between them when it was possible to trail away from may be pointed out by recalling that in 1916 labor supported President Wilson as the result of his permitting the heads of the railroad brotherhoods to hold up the country with stop watches and successfully demand the Adamson law as the result of his expressed intention to keep the nation out of war and as the result of the statement made by the Democratic National Committee that he was responsible for the provision in the Clayton act that labor should no longer be considered a commodity or article of commerce. As a matter of fact, this last provision was purely a Republican measure, but labor swallowed the Democratic pretensions, hook, line and sinker.
During the war labor was coddled by the president and his advisors as never before and properly so because of the necessity of the utmost solidarity in order to win. Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, was frequently initiated in to the mysteries of the inner councils at the White House. He and all labor speeded up to the limit and turned out immense production. After the conflict ended the workers were some time in returning to a normal state of mind. The espionage law had the effect of a dose of ether, and it required several months to come out from under. But when they were restored they discovered that prices which Mr. Wilson had been promising since 1913 to reduce were soaring by yond all reason. And so they demanded more adequate return.
It is generally believed here that in their demands they went, entirely too far. They had caught the glare of the soviet. They demanded through the Plumb plan that they be permitted to take over the railroads and threatened revolution if they were no. In spite of Judge Gary's admission that the common stock of the Steel Corporation pays 18 per cent and that the average wage of the steel worker is $4.67 per day, they employ as the secretary of the strike committee a notorious preacher of revolution. They demanded a 60 per cent increase in wages and a six-hour day in the coal mines and the leaders of half a million strikers held up the balance of the population.
President Wilson met with the approval of both Democrats and Republicans in letting the Plumb plan leaders know that the nation would not brook threats from any class any more than it had brooked threats from the Hohenzollerns, and he gained further support when he denounced the methods of the leaders among the miners. But it is believed here that he went too far in his general attitude of animosity toward labor and that his influence in this respect has begun to permeate the entire Administration. As a result the resentment of labor is becoming keen.
When the Indusrial Conference ad journed without action, largely because of the men appointed by the President, though all that labor asked there was the adoption of the principle of collective bargaining enunciated by President Taft through the War Labor Board, the cleavage was widened. Labor felt it had lost its great and good friend at the White House. On top of this and probably actuated by the same influence from his superior in office, Secretary of Labor William B. Wilson refused to welcome the delegates to the International Labor Conference of Women or to permit any one to represent him. Delegates had assembled from every civilized country, including the new states of Poland and Czecho-Slovakia. But the Labor Department through its chief, held aloof.

TWENTY THREE ARE HURT IN THREE CAR COLLISIONS.
Heavy Fog Which Cloaked Richmond Early Yesterday Takes Heavy Tool.
FIVE VICTIMS IN HOSPITALS.
Mantle of Mist Obscures Vision of Motor men and Autists—Most severe Crash Takes Places on Highland Park Lime.
Twenty-three persons are suffering from more or less serious injuries as the result of head-on troley collisions in three different sections of Richmond early Monday morning when the city was clouched in one of the heaviest fogs experienced here in years.
Of the victims, five are confined to various hospitals. Heavies toll was exacted by the crash of two cars on the Highland Park lng on Fourth Avenue, between Aldor and Chestnut Streets, shortly after eight o'clock, when twenty-one persons were hurt.
Those most seriously injured there and taken to Grace Hospital were:
Motorman M. W. Muggeran, 404 N. Twenty-sixth street; serious lacerations on the head.
George P. Shaffer, 1711 Second Avenue; leg broken below knee and internal injuries.
Mrs. Loakee Francis, 1303 Detaware Avenue; injuries to hip and shock.
A. A. Ingram, 1820 Maryland Avenue; internal injuries. Purcell Corner, fourteen years of age, 1905 Virginia Avenue; crushed feet. He was taken to the Stuart Circle Hospital.

CAR FILLED WITH CHILDREN.
Running full speed ahead, a northbound car on the Highland Park line ran head-on into a southbound car on the same line a little after eight o'clock in the most serious collision of Monday morning. Both cars were packed with school children and other passenger. M. W. Garrigan motor man in charge of the southbound car in a statement at the Grace Hospital last night said that the fog was so dense that he did not see the approaching northbound car until it was too late to avert the crash.
His conductor, E. J. La Fontaine escaped without injury, although practically every passenger aboard was injured or suffered severe shock.
The northbound car was in charge of Motorman W. S. Bailey and Conductor R. L. Vaughan who were unhurt.
In the official investigation of the wreck that occurred at the offices of the Virginia Railway and Power Company, members of the crews were not blamed for the accident. It developed at the hearing that Motorman Railley saw the approaching northbound car when it was only a few feet away and tried to avert the smash-up by reversing all brakes.
TWO OTHER ACCIDENTS
Police reports show that two other head on collisions be ween street cars on the Ginter Park line, also occurred during the heavy fog. One happened at 6:55 o'clock on the First Street Viduct. No damage was done. Fifty-five minutes later two cars crashed headlong at Stop 25, and three passengers were slightly hurt. They were Tyre and J. W. Watkins, who live on Hermi age Road, and W. L. Cosby, a Negro passenger, living at 13 Rosemary Avenue. Several automobile accidents were reported to the police. Investigation proved that none of these crashes were of a serious nature.

V. N. I. L., 13—HAMPTON. 18.
Last Saturday the football team of the Virginia Normal and Industrial institute journeyed to Hampton to match skill and endurance on the grid iron. The wea her was ideal for foot ball aid tended to bring out the best that was in each team. The game was adjudged by many who saw it to be one of the cleanest and best played games seen in this section for a long time. The battle ended in a tie—13 to 13.
The teams were very evenly matched in the first quarter and little damage was done on either side except a long forward pass which gave Peters burg a first down on Hampton's twenty yard line.
Early in the second period the Petersburg boys seemed to strike stride. They started their style of play which no school eleven this year has been able to withstand, Jackson threw a forward pass straight into the waiting arms of Young who rumped across Hampton's goal line for the first touchdown of the game. Jackson failed at goal. Thus the first halt ended with the score V. N., and I. L, 6 and Hampton 0.
During the rest of fifteen minutes between the halves there was consider able stultying of the map of the field of play after which the two teams again faced each other. The Petersburg boys were determined to hold their lead and the Hampton boys were equally determined to overtake them and to surpass them.
After various charges of fortune, a long forward pass down the field was claimed by Long. Hampton's speedy end who by a splendid exhibition of running thru a broken field placed the ball behind the goal for Hampton's first touchdown. Green failed at goal. The third quarter ended with the score V. N. and I. I.—6 and Hampton—6.
The fourth quarter was a battle royal. After six or eleven minutes play Long gathered in another pass gave an exhibition of aggressive play that has seldom been seen on Hampton field. They secure the ball in mild field and by a series of line plunges, whirlwind end runs and forward pass as placed the ball behind Hampton's goal line three minutes before the final whistle blew.

The game ended with the ball in Hampton's possession on V. N. and I. L., forty yard line. Both teams played well.

HOWARD, 12; HAMPTON, 7
Hampton, Va., Nov.—Several thousand and spectators witnessed the annual football classic between Howard and Hampton. When the whistle blew Hampton received the kick on her 30 yard line. Howard lined up over the ball on Hampton's 40 yard line and made several end runs which so suited in a touchdown within a few minutes of play. Hampton recovered a long punt sent far into Howard's territory. After several line plunges and long end sweeps, Green carried the pigskin over for a touchdown. The goal was kicked. In the second quarter both teams resorted to kicking and forward passing. Hampton intercepted several passes and gained through Howard's line. The kicking, however was continued. Howard made several good end runs but failed to score.
Howard payed offensive ball in the last half and was determined to win Hampton became puzzled over Howard's long and short passes, which were broken up. Both teams fought hard. But a touchdown was impossible. Hampton made a bad kick to Howard in the last quarter. Howard attempted a drop kick on the 20 yard line, but was blocked by Long. Howard attempted long and short passes, which were successful. Howard made a touchdown in the last few seconds off a short forward pass. The goal goal was missed. Hampton received the kick and made one or two downs before the final whistle blew. The game was clean and exciting, Hampton held the lead until the last eight seconds. Wright's punting was good. Green's line plunging was excellent, and Wil Lams of Howard did very successful forward passing.

Centralia, Wash, Scene of Death as
Shots Kill Celebrators.
Centralia, Wash., Nov. 11.—Three men were killed outright and a fourth was hanged by an angry mob when Industrial Wrokers of the World fired into a parade given by the people of this city today in commemoration of Armistice Day.
Warren Grimm, lawyer; Ben Cassagranda, real estate dealer and Arthur McElfresh were instantly killed. Dala Hubbard one of the six men wounded was reported tonight as dying. The other wounded will recover. All the killed and wounded were over seas veterans.
Immediately after the shooting a crowd of spectators and marchers seized a man they believed to be the ringleader of the I. W. W. They put a rope around his neck, threw the rope over the cross arm of a telephone pole and started to haul him up. He was in the air only a brief period before the chief of police prevailed upon the crowd to let him down. Tonight the man was in fall here nearly dead.
SIXTEEN UNDER ARREST
Sixteen alleged Industrial Workers of the World were arrested early tonight and more were being placed in jail as fast as they could be found. Former soldiers were guarding the jail to keep the prisoners from a mob which crowded around the building. At 7:30 tonight the city's lights sud denly were cut off and a volley of shots rained down Pearl street. It was during this period that the prits oner was taken from jail and spirited away. He was rushed toward a nearby wood and at last accounts the coowd had disappeared with him. According to a report telephoned the mob took the alleged I. W. W., from jail, escorted him to a point just outside the city limits, and hanged him on a bridge on what is known as the old Chealths Military Road.
"The man's body is now hanging on a rope under the bridge about ten feet from the water," the telephone message said, "The I. W. W. the mob lynched was the one who shot. Date Hubbard during the fight in the river bed."
FIRED FROM ROOFS OF
BUILDINGS.
The Industrial Workers of the World it is charged, fired from roofs of buildings near their hall. After the shooting a mob ransacked the I. W. W. hall, tore down the front of the building and threw furniture in to the streets, where it was burned. The hall itself was not burned.
Following the shooting the outraged soldiers and citizens raided the I. W. W, meeting place and surrounding buildings, seizing several members of the I. W. W, and a quantity of arms and ammunition. Posses early tonight searched the countryside for others who might have escaped In the confusion. The whole city had turned out to celebrate the anniversary of the sus pension of hostilities and a large parade was formed, headed by the city's boys who had helped bring about the glad day a year ago. Wearing the uniforms that sheltered them in the trunches of France and on the picket lines of the German border, the service men were the cynosure of the hundreds of women and children who lined the streets.
As the column swung around the corner of Tower Avenue and Second Avenue the band struck up a patriotic march. Then bullets came into the ranks from an unseen enemy, Men fell to the pavement and tiny rivulets of blood showed the spectators what had taken place, the crack of the rifles of the assassins having been drowned by the blare of the band.
Tiny puffs of smoke from the roof of a near-by building indicated whence the bullets had come and the nearness of the I. W. W. hall led to the quick decision that the heroes who had weathered the sanguinary battle fields of Europe had been slain from ambush by radicals who opposed the American system of government.
The marching soldiers did not linger er to await the order to fall out but with seeming intulition rushed into the nearby structure and fought their way to the roof. The snippers had disappeared but the service men sought highways and byways for all suspicious persons and then sent out pioneers into the timbered country around the city.
RUSH TO AID OF FALLEN MEN.
Wives, daughters and sweethearts of the paraders after a momentary pause from the sudden terror of the situation rushed to the aid of the fallen. That the firing was intended for soldiers was shown by the fact that all the killed and injured were in the military section of the parade which was made up partly of residents of Chehalis.
Arthur McElfresh was found to have been killed instantly but Warren Grimm did not die until later. Grimm's death added to the fury of the crowd of civilians that swarmed later about the jail to demand vengeance.
He had been an idol of the town even before the war, as he was a star football player at the University of Washington. He had added to the esteem of his townsmen by a professional career until the war for democracy called him. He had been welcomed home with all the plaudits due a warrior and his death at the hidden hands of those who opposed that for which he had faced the enemy in the open, drove men and women to frenzy.
As soon as the first excitement subsided somewhat word of the attack was sent to Governor Hart, at Olympia. He communicated with De department of six officers at Seattle and then dispatched seventy-five members of the Third Infantry, Nat-
ional Guard, to Centralia. The so diers are expected to arrive by morning.

TWO COLORED MEN ACCUSED OF ATTACKING WHITE WOMEN IN ARKANSAS ARE PROVED INNOCENT.
Arrest Announced by White Press in Bold Headlines Acquittal Gets Slight Mention.
NO EXCITEMENT OF ANY KIND—FAIR AND IMPARTIAL TRIAL IN EACH CASE.
Negroes of Little Rock, of Arkansas and of the Nation find great cause for gratification in the fact that what would ordinarily have resulted in the lynching of two innocent human beings and added stigma cast upon the race to which they belonged, were saved from untimely deaths through the forbearance of Lit.lo Rock white citizens at large and a fair investigation and trial of their cases in court.
The first case was that of John McKee, a colored man who was charged by Mrs. Ollie Davis, a white woman with attempting to assault her at the home of "Aunt Lizzie" Batte an aged and half blind race woman who lived near the Davis home at 1107 Walnut street. According to the woman's story, she visited the old colored woman's home for the purpose of carrying the latter some thing to cat and that she found, McKee there. She alleges that McKee made improper proposals to her and tried twice to pull her down into his lap. She stated that she escaped from the place but "said nothing" about the affair. Returning to the old colored woman's home a week later, she stated that McKee was on hand again and renewed his proposals and that to make him let her alone, "Aunt Lizzie" hit him on the head with a stick and she again escaped and this time reported the affair to the officers. She declared in court that if the law did not do something to McKee she would kill him with her own hands. McKee was arrested and held in custody and his case was called in municipal court last Friday evening. Selpio A. Jones, the noted Negro law yer and a white associate represented McKee.
McKeen proved to the satisfaction of Municipal Judge that he was not at the place where the attack was alleged to have been made. Several witnesses testified that McKeen here a good reputation and that he had
never before been arrested. Despite the fact that "Aunt Lizzle" and her son Mose are alleged to have attempted to swear this innocent Negro's life away, his alibi was so clear and complete that Municipal Judge Hale dismissed the case:
The second case was that of Bob Holliday, Negro driver of an ice wagon. Holliday was arreced upon the complaint of Mrs. A. B. Myers, a white woman of 1202 Main street who charged Holliday with having attempted to place his arms around her while delivering ice at her home one day last week. She said when Holliday called she told she did not need any ice, but that he replied that he would see for himself and went on in her kitchen and that when she followed him, he made an insulting re mark and attempted to place his arms about her. The woman made her complaint on the next day following the alleged crime. Holliday's attorney, Frank Pittard (white) introduced testimony which convinced Judge Hale of Holliday's innocence. Many white witnesses testified that during the many years that Holliday had been delivering ice to their homes he had never been disrespectful. Holliday was acquitted of the charge.
Thus two Negroes of good reputation not only escaped horrible deaths at the hands of bloodthirsty mobs, but did not lose their lives or liberty through farcial court proceedings, but were given fair trials to establish their innocence or guilt. We shudder to think of what would have happened to these two black men in other communities and sections. The words of two women, suffering with some form of hysteria or plain spite would have been sufficient to have called forth a blood-thirsty mob, armed with the inevitable rope and a generous supply of fagots with which to lynch and burn two innocent souls. But Little Rock white citizens established a precedent and a "Just Judge" in the person of Judge Hale upheld the majesty of the law. With firmness and justice as his standard he heard the accusations which in them selves usually mean death. He reviewed the testimony impartially and granted a verdict justly. These cases turned out in such manner as to almost border on the miraculous.
