Atlanta University and Haines Institute Battle to Standstill ht State Dalr, . A_feature of, the Colored State Fair Friday 22nd inst , wasa _foot- ball contest between Haines Insti. tute, of Augusta, and Atlanta Uni- versity, of Atlanta, Neither side scored. A large number of Mercer men helped to augment the attend- ance. \ The officiating in the combat was left entirely with live of the Bap- tist players. ‘They pulled the job off without a hitch. ‘The Atlanta eleven appeared the heavier und had more drive to vheir line plunges, but did not stage 2 consistent game. On the other hand the Augusta bunch were light, yet managed to keep the ball in their oppdnents’ territo- ry most of the game. Three times the Haines Institute were within ten yards of the coveted goal, but could not push the oval over. Freedman’s Bank Depositors We have been reliably informed that a certain man has been going xround collecting old Freedman’s bank books from some of our peo- ple upon the promise of getting their money for them. Our peo- ple should be very careful te whom they give their books. ‘The government is not paying any more claims for this bank excep! to thase who’ have not received sixty-two per cent. of their depos its. No more payments will be made until Congress passes ar nppropriation for that purpose. Atlanta Baptist College Defeats _ Tuskegee Institute In one the hardest-fought and most brilliant foot-ball games ever played in the south, Atlanta Bap- tist College last Saturday, defest- ed Tuskegee at Ponce de Leon park, Atlanta, Ga., by a score of 12 t0 3 The Atlurita eleven began the scoring with a touchdown in the first quarter. The game there- after was stubbornly contested without a score uutil the third quarter, when ‘Tuskegee’s quarter- back dropkicked a perfect field goal from the 30-yard line- By far the most brilliant feature ‘ef the game was the forwardpasé work of the Atlanta Baptist Col- Jege team. Several Tech men of long foot-ball experience declared shat the 40-yard pass from Parks toBrock was the greatest of its kind ever executed in the South. About lifteen hundred spectators witnesaed the game. Among this number were more than 200 white people, Card of Thanks. Mr. and Mrs. Milledge Anderson wish to thank their many friends for the kindness shown them in their bereave- ment, alse for the floral offerings. Educating Our Children a ei abe Oa TI Mr ae aa ge ga OS oe Cree sae Tayler sae | ‘This season of the year, for sev- eral years, 1 have spoken a word to you regarding the importance of building up a good. first class school in every community. Plans are on the way by which during the third week in October. 1913, the colored people throughout the United States will celelnate the fiftieth anniversary of their nctual fieedomas a race. In this con- nection it is of the greatest inipor tance that we be able to show to the world the progress that wo have made in sustaining and build- ing up first-class public schouls, especially in the rural districts. During the Inst fifty years we have succeeded in reducing eur ig- norance from 97 per cent to 30 per cent. This is a fine shosving for fifty years of freedom. We must not stop, we must go further. The greatest points of weakness just now are in the smal country districts. 1 _In every case where there are already proper school facilities, the fbusiness men together with the ministers and teachers. should ap- peal constantly to the publicsckool authorities to see that better pro- visions are made. Unless we look out for our olirselyes, we cannot expect other people to du so, As an illustration of what united and constant effort can accomplish, I would state that during the last five years the colored people in Macon County, Alabama have con- tributed $12,133.05 to toward the building of new school houses: in addition they have contributed $14,000 toward the extension of school terms in the country. The ‘result is that nearly every school district in Macon County: lias a first-class schoolliouse well, painted and well furnished; theschool term has been extended from four to seven months in the year, and the people are continumg to contribute in the way of extra taxation to-| ward the up-keep of public schools. Something of this kind can bel done in every county in the South | where there are not satisfactory’ facilities. In orderto indicate the’ problem that is before us, I under- stand, on good authority, that in Louisiana in one parish where there are 8.000 colored people, there is no schoo! building in the entire parish Of éourse such a condition means ignorance, and ig- norance means poverty, and pov- erty means crime. , We must not cease to agitate the question of education, to keep the white people in our communities informed concerning our educa- tional interests and desires. We cannot get something for nothing- It is only through constant effort that we shall get education for our children. While in many parts of the South the eduvatienal opportuni- ties are so few that it is almost dis- couraging, in other sections the outlook is bright. For example, ata meeting of the county super- intendants of Alabama called by the State Superintendant of Educa- tion in Montgomery a few days ago, the following sentiment relat- ing to the Negro was unanimously endorsed: “By providing him with schools and churches instead of poison and whiskey, lie will make a better and {more useful citizen, according to one delegate present. Others ex- pressed their opinion on the Ne- groes’ relation to education, and_it was the unanimous opinion that the race should be aided as much as possible by the state.” It is encouraging to note, too, that in many counties in the south, the teachers are under the super- yision and guidance of Dr. James H. Dillard, president of the Anna T. Jeanes Fund and are doing:much to improve the education of the race and to bring about better re- tlations between black and white people. ‘These Jeanes Fund teach. ers should have the constant sup: jport and co-operation of our lead. ee eee Engagement Announced.

Thanksgiving Day Widely Observed. ALL CHURCHES WELL AT- TENDED IN MORNING. Concerts at Night Attract Crowds—Mt. Zion Congrega- March to New Church—Parks Crowded. 6 - Thanksgiving Day was widely observed throughout the city. All of the wholesale and retail house: suspended business operations at 1 o'clock, so that their employees inight enjoy the pleasures of the day. The churches of the city all held special thanksgiving services during the morning at which do- nations were taken for the poor. ‘The ministers all pseached special sermons and much enjoyable music was rendered by the choirs. AtLincoln and Woodlawn Parks ‘and Scott's Pavilion large crowds were present in the afternoon and evening at the barbecues that were given und the entertainments at the various halls in the city at night were all well attended. Among the special features of the evening in the churches were the concerts at the First Bryan Baptist church and that at the Sec- Baptist church which were very enjoyable, * Mt. Zion Baptist church had a formal opening of their new church ut West Broad and Waldbury lane. [he meinbers of the church mot at the old church, West Broad and Minis streets, and, headed by the pastor and thy deacon board, marched to the new chareh where 2 “Gathering of the Harvest” service yas held. ‘Phe church was crowded ayd a very animated ser- vice was held * In general the day was very pleasantly, spent°and there were many socia)] functions given in every section of the city, Amene the Masons. “‘Bless be the hands that toil to aid The great world’s ceaseless need The hands that never sroafraid, “~ To do a kindly deed.” | A manto appreciate Masonry, must study it and work in it. To merely receive the degrees is to form no definite idéa of the scope and purpose of the fraternity. The men who are enthusiastic about Masonry, are, asw rule, those who have given some time toa study of the history and landmarks of the institution. ‘The more one un- derstands it the more he will be- come convinced that it is no light and triding ebaracter, but of high importance atid due solemnity. Of course. there are lots of men who join the fraternity simply because membership may at sumetime be of value to them. Many ‘go to lodges because they want tome place to spend an evening. Others merely to-pay their dues and are not otherwise known to Masons. But there is a small percentage of the fraternity that really work in it, and to these brethren must it look for its development. and’ pro- pagation—Illinois Freemason.

If it is only a side-show, the real circus must be most won- derful. The principles of the East- ern Star idealize and beautify life and increase the desire for excel- lence in womanhood. It is an un- questioned truth thaé the more excellent the womanhood of our land, the more the manhood. ‘The heroines of our Order are most beautjful characters, and if, we live up to the lessons taught tn their history.,we will, indeed. be jewels which man may well feel proud to claim, and far more im- portant still is the fact that we will meet the approval of the Grand Patron on High | Those who faithfully keep our obligations are truly ‘tit meat for the master’s sue.” The more I lean of the great grand and noble work being ae- complished by the members of the Eastern Star, the more interested I become and my heart swells with pride when the fact come: homg to me that 1 am one in this vast field of labor. 5 +The good of our Order is showr in the unity it produces.

PROCTOR MAKES Li SPLENDID ADDRESS Audience a Most Represerta- tiye One—Speaker Commend- ed League for its Good Work Several Distinguished Visi- lors at Mecting | ‘The Negro Civic Improvement League met last Sunday after soon at five o'clock at the Masonic Temple, Gwinneit street, west, in one of the most enthusiastic sacet ings in the history of tint buy. The attendance was very arg and composed of a most represen- tative body. One feature of the attendance, which was very notice able, was the Large prepopageance of males, ‘The meeting was a very enthu- siastic one and much benefit’ was derived from it. — Lhe principal feature of the afternoon was the address by Rev. H. H. Préctor, pastor of the First Congregational Church of. Atlan- ta, Ga., who was in the city in attendance upon the general con- vention of Congregational churches of Georgia. which was convening with the First. Consre- gational church, Habersham und Taylor streets. Rey. Proctor spoke on the sub- ject, “Dirt.” and for a little over one hour hi, hearers: were wiven a delightful and appreciative treat? Ile spoke of the need of cleanti- ness of soul and of body and also of civic cleanliness. + He took occasion to, compliment the League for the yood waeh it has already accomplished and spoke of the need of a similar organiza- tion in Atlanta. The two masical numbers on the program were well rendered, Miss Nettie A- Houston and Mr. Julius Jenkins both being in excellent voice. Rev. R/ H. Singleton presided at the meeting. . “There were seyeral distinguished out-of lown visitors at the, meet- wy. Most of them were” in the ity as deleg ses to the Congrega- tional Convention and took advan- tage of the opportunity of atteud- ing the meeting of the League.

BUTLER Asso. Editor and Manager Published Every Saturday 1009 West Broad Street. Phone 2171. The Tribune appeals to the voters of the city to stand as a unit in the coming city campaign and act solely for the benefit of the whole people. Our civic needs are great and many. They should not be laid aside for personal agrandizement. In a few more days the tax books will be closed. Voters and tax payers should pay up at once. Voters can register for 1913 immediately after paying their tax. Our young voters should especially heed this and not get behind. It is with a great deal of satisfaction that we note the outcome of the trial of the New York gunmen charged with the murder of the gambler Herman Rosenthal. For the trial to have resulted otherwise would have caused not only a blot upon the escutcheon of the great city of New York, the proud metropolis of our country, but upon that of the entire country as well. While we can ill afford to rejoice at such a predicament of another, yet when this plight comes to one as a result of the triumph of justice and order over mob and violence there can be but satisfaction in the camp of all lovers of justice and fair play to all alike. Herman Rosenthal, judging from the reports, was a bad man in every sense of the word. He was a proliudeat and well known patron and habitue of the underworld in whose atmosphere he seemed to have grown fat. To him the underworld offered peace and plenty. Nevertheless he was an American citizen. The rights, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, the malicious rights of man roughsafed and guaranteed to all American citizens by the constitution of our country, were his, not to be taken by another without due process of law. Nevertheless, as the testimony at the trial of the gunmen revealed, these four men, friends and fellows of the gambler Rosenthal, abrogated all of the laws of the commonwealth and took it upon themselves to take his life, not as a revenge for some real or supposed wrong done them by the gambler, but for the sake of a few tainted dollars and cents. How cruel! how brutal! Can mortal man stoop to a lower depth in criminality than this and escape the strong hand of the law? Thanks to the courts of New York the answer comes in the negative. The citizens of New York have arisen as one man against such exhibition of lawlessness in their city. The perpetrators, five in number, of this dastardly crime, have been placed on trial, convicted and sentenced to death. In due time, it is believed that they will be made to pay the penalty for their crime. The electric chair yawns and waits for them. The strong arm of the law says that lawlessness must down. To know this is to make those of us who are law abiding feel more secure in our person and home against invasion. Again we reiterate our satisfaction and approval of the outcome of the trial of the New York gunmen. Judge Goff, District Attorney Whitman and the twelve brave and courageous men who sat as a jury in the trial of the gunmen, are to be congratulated for the fearlessness with which they handled the Rosenthal murder case. They did their duty as they saw it even in the face of the most dire threats of the pals of the convicted gunmen. They have done well and in so doing their names will linger long in the memory of those of us who are for law and order first, last and all of the time. Long live Justice Goff and his associates in the trial and conviction of this band of midnight assassins. A few more weeks and another anniversary of the great emancipatory act of the immortal Lincoln will be upon us. On the first of January next another circle in the national life of the American Negro shall have rounded out itself bringing, in the meantime, before the survey of the American nation, the fiftieth milestone in the Negroes' march of Second Baptist Church. Second Baptist Church. Rev. J. W. Holloway, who was attending the Congregational Convention preached a very interesting sermon on Sunday morning. His text was "What hast thou in thine hand." His sermon was very instructive from beginning to end. Rev. Holloway also preached at 8 p.m. Services were held on Thursday morning. The Sunday school meets at 9:30 a.m. The public is cordially invited to attend the service. Beth-Eden Baptist Church Gordon and Lincoln Streets Gordon and Lincoln Streets Rev. N. M. Clark, pastor. Services to-morrow 6 a.m., early prayer meeting; 11 a.m., preaching by the pastor, subject, "Signs of Growth in Grace." 4 p.m., Communion; 6:30 p.m., the B Y.P. U.; 8 p.m., preaching subject, "Benefit of Growth in Grace." All are cordially invited to attend these services. G. E. Club Installation. On Monday night of last week the G. E. Club held its annual installation at the Savannah Home Association Reading Room. Refreshments were served. On next Thursday night the club will celebrate its twenty fifth year with a banquet at Harris street hall. The occasion promises to be very enjoyable. Unique invitations have been printed, which will be issued to the desired guests. The following are the officers installed: Joseph J. Brown, president; William M. Robinson, vice-president; Samuel Richards, financial secretary; Augustus Black, recording secretary; J. L. Mitchell, treasurer; George M. Brown, advocate; Collins Law, chaplain. The Jones-Dennis "Firing Line" and other parts of the Independent have been brimful of news lately from the various Deputies and Supervisors, and they have discussed pro and con the many subjects that affect the Negro Odd-Fellows in this country, and those in Georgia in particular. The loth, B. M. C. is a thing of the past, and is only a matter of history. The wise thing for the Odd-Fellows in Georgia to do is to organize their forces for the 17th, B. M. C. and vindicate any wrong that was done us at the late meeting. "Bragging about what we can do" will not bring the desired results; but it takes real, active, effective work to tell the successful tale. "Judas dipped in the dish with our blessed Savior" and then for the paltry sum of thirty pieces of silver betrayed him into the hands of his enemies. There were many Judases in our ranks at the late B M C., and they will be with us as long as time shall last. There are many vital things to settle within our own ranks, and it behooves us to "clean out our own homes before we begin to clean out the homes of others. There are severa avowed candidates for office in our state, especially for the office of District Grand Master. And I respectfully submit that it is the inherent right of any financial Odd-Fellow who has compiled with all the laws to run for any office in the gift of his constituents; and, yet, I hold that a candidate for office in the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows should run on his merit, and not seek election by attempting to mislead the great army of loyal Odd-Fellows in Georgia. No power on earth could have changed the results of the 16th B. M. C. and for certain candidates to place the blame of our defeat on the absence of that clean, Christian gentleman, is absurd, misleading, and false in its entirety. Hundreds of our delegates had left the city before the election was called, and it is very strange to me why one particular candidate should single out Ingram and blame him for our defeat.

Masons turned out in honor of Brother George Sheppard, one of its members Brother W. H. Burgess read a splendid set of resolutions for the lodge. The talks by the class leaders for their members who had died made the occasion very touching. Rev. L. A. Townsley then delivered a very strong and sympathetic sermon from the text, Heb. 11:13:39 "These all died in the faith, having obtained a good report through faith." On Sunday evening he preached from Prov 18:10, "The name of the Lord is a strong tower, the righteous runneth into it and is safe." Dr. Townsley has finished his fourth year and has strong hope of returning for his fifth year. He will preach his final sermon tomorrow night. Dollar money has been no object to him this year.

Church Dots Franklin Square The members of the First African Baptist Church, Franklin square, rejoiced in having raised the necessary amount to rid their church of its entire indebtedness on last Sunday. At the beginning of the year the pastor, Rev. Wilts L. Jones, and his board of deacons decided that they would put every effort forth to raise the money in this year. The pastor pledged $50.00 and each deacon similar amounts. Their efforts were successful for on the said Sunday, when the rally concluded, the members had paid in $1,767.21, which was $167.21 over the amount necessary to meet their demands. A creditable feature in the consumption of their greatest indebtedness is that the church has until March 17th, 1913 to make good their contract, and inasmuch as it is prepared almost four months in advance to meet the claim, shows with what zeal, thrift, love and devotion the members hold their church. At present the church owns a beautiful parsonage at 717 West Broad street, approximately valued at $9000.00, a desirable lot on East 42nd, near Abercorn, on which was erected a prayer house, lately destroyed by tire, for which the church has been offered $1000.00 but refused to accept; and ten other lots on which are built prayer houses whose sums estimate value would reach approximately $2500.00. The members are making a splendid demonstration of uniting with their pastor and officers, which means a sure accomplishment of whatever venture they may undertake. The church has always been over or under estimated as to its numerical strength; yet by far its baptismal record since 1783 will, in all probability, outstrip any Negro church in the world regardless of denomination. The church edifice and other property are in need of much repairs, and very soon the work of repairing will begin. The crowning jubilee of the mortgage burning will come off about January 20, 1913, at which time the church will celebrate its one hundredth and twenty-sixth (126) anniversary. This celebration promises to be one of the grandest in the history of the church, having a two-fold significance. Watch the columns of The Tribune for the program.

Draped Effects Are Accorded the Most Popularity by the Leading De- signers—Walst Line a Matter . of Individual Cholce., ee eg ee ee ee “Wj “another ménth to come-the p-in- cipal interest in clothes centers around, street ‘apparel, and cer. tainly it is an important featuro in dress to appear well gowned in pub- lic, But the smart dresser never nes- lects the frocks to be worn in the house, for she realizes how telling it is to bo becomingly' and distinctively gowned in one’s own home, writes Laura R. Seiple in the Chicago Rec- ord-Herald. Therefore the first con- siderations in dress are the street costumes and the evening gowns, aad after these difficult problems are ac- complished, then attention can be turned to fascinating house gowns. This does not mean the matinee or negligee, but the tea gown, which to- day finds quite as elaborate and every whit as expensive, !f not more 50, than the fashionable dinner gown, and often in many respects it is very similar, Many of the world’s renowned de- signers have gone over to draped ef- fects for street wear; indeed few of the European houses have turned out anything but draped styles of one kind or anothér. And in many of the great establishments the normal waist line and even, the elongated waist line re- ecives much attention, but the raised weist line Is by no means discarded, ‘and many sumptuous models are ‘shown with decidedly short waist. On street costumes the ceinturo is in- dicated by a false girdle or belt, which in many instances furnished the deco- rative feature of the coat. All sorts of original ideas are thus expressed, and with; excellent results. Sometimes the lengtkened waist line is suggested in the, same way. White Velvet for the Street. One of the handsomest street cos- tumes -bropght -qut by one of New York's ‘importers who has copied and idealized a large number of exclusive modelé, is 4 gowi;veryjsimple in line, yet superlatively gorgeous, being madé ‘as it 1 pf white velvet. The silhouette of the model is similar to those yblepihave been familiar during the past year, cut straight back. the left side closes over the right in a rotinded corier,“Jeaving the slightly plaited underskirt in view at the bot- tom.. Ornate white buttons set with a single brillidmt hold the corner in place. In the front a cleverly arrong- ed white eatin sash starting from un- der the front of the Medici collar and falling dewn the left front of coat and skirt to the knee. The scarf is held flat by straps of velvet and small but- tons. Indications point to an unprecedent- ed year of velvet. Velvets of all kinds are popular, but the brocades and embossed patterns are tie novelries most prized, and levciy cffcets are be- ing_developed with them. The em- bossed velvet designs-on chiffon or messaline cr on metallic sauze are. particularly beautiful and lend them- ‘sef¥es ‘charmingly to drapcry effects. A great deal is being done with black velyet embossed on cloth of gold and blug on cloth of-silvef. Some won- derfully/gorgeougegowns in these su- Herb *brocades, combined with plain velvet are being exhibited at the smartyNouses, and so well are the em- Vossea ‘fabrics taking 'that It is al- most impossible to obthin even short lengths, of the choice patterns in.the shops. © 3 One-Tone Effects’ Popular. —* Taupe cne-tone effects are extreme- ly popular in these ddlectable mate- rials, and some of the smartest after- Hoon gowns-are developed in taupe ¥elvet embossed messaline madeup with plain taupe velvet or satin and relieved by cascades of lovely soft lace. The various taupe shades are surprisingly effective and generally becoming, but often relieving colors are employed with taupe, certain shades of red or old rose being the most succeseful. One hlso sees deep orange with taupe, but this combina- tign is only for the brunette to whom burnt orange is becom{ng. The new reds that are being favored just now are excellent with all the fashionable mole and brown tones, as well as with the heavier shades of tqupe. — Some exceedingly pretty’ models in corduroy and heavy velvet, nt unlike those in wool, are modish and charm- ing for street wear. A~lorely little suit in deep rose corded velvet was highly complimented with its under- skirt of black satin bordered with skunk fur, and its caunningly arrang- ed ‘skirt plaits. «The fancy_¢oat wad fs ik ies this Bie ow nek Sota ze Zhe.

A lovely shade called tilleul—a tone between dead green and yellow—composes some of the smartest street costumes, ‘This parti- cular shade is considered by meny ar- biters of fashion, as being one,of the best colors of the season. Another becoming tone is known as “dead leaves" and {s novel in its combina- tion of a sort of dull gray with a dash of brown and red. * Popular Shades of Brown. .

A lovely new tone called mole- brown is attractive In all the modish woolen stuffs, and there are some very charming models in such color and materials. A stunning tailored two- piece model was of thick soft wool of the pean de chamois sort and the trim- ming was a flat brdid matching the material in color.

Sad Fate of “Rattiésnake Jack” and “BIN the Bitec” When Their “Rob- bers’ Roost” Caved" in and Smothered Them. ~ Y New York—Two of the bandits are dead, They were caught in their own eave by the fall of the cave roof and were crushed to death. . But these were not, very bold or bloody “bandits: no pogses rade the plains after them; ‘hg warrant, sword to by Bell and Book, was out against j-them.- Just two-little -boys, Johpnie Pecorella and Billy Blum, and thelr robbers” ‘cave, where -they met their death some time the ather night, was in a vacant lot at 163 Hopkins avenue, East New York, # It was two other bandits who made the discovery of the tragedy in the cave early the next morning, and that is what made It all the more terrible for all thé bold banditi who infest the mountain fastnesses about Hop- Kins avenue and Hull street. They took shovels, these scared bandits, and they dug frantically until they came on a shoe and a little patch of stocking, and then—they grew sick with fear, and just had to cry. Now, the bandits’ numbered fifteen or twenty youngsters, varying In age from 8 to 14 years- Before ever they dug their-cave in the vacant lot on Hopkins avenue- they took fearsome names to themselves, Johnny Pero- relia, 12 years old, who Ilved at 194 Rockaway avenue, was “Rattlesnake pee Billy Blum, 9, was “Bill the Biter,” when he was not tucked in: his own ‘bed ®{ 5D Hull street; ttle Johnny Good yas “Rob Roy,” and George Good was “Red Hye Mike.” All the bandits were bound together by terrible oaths and “Rattlesnake. Jack” had all their names, signed in blood, in en old off can safe down in the cave. 7 The cave was a perfect robbers’ stronghcid. It was eight feet wide, the same number of feet long and about six feet deep, “Over the top boards were laid; then tin and on top of all that dirt was spread, so that every bit of light was kept out of the cave. To get into the cave a robber had to drop on his knees and crawl through a tunnel ten feet long, with a fine twist in it, where a deputy sheriff could be murdered at one blow with the dirk The cave was fitted up in-, side with strips of carpet and a pack- ing case seat for the chief of the ban- cits, who was old “Rattlesnake” John- ny Pecorella himself. Candies, “awiped” from home, gave Hght. | For several days the bandits inad | feared “Deadwood Dick,” the trusty deputy sheriff, was on their trall and. that he would loot their cave of evi dence in thelr absence on, some foray. So when word came that Deadwood was already coming down the moun-'| tainside from City Line with his trust- | ed posse, the chief of the bandits and | “Bili the Biter,” otherwise Billy Blum, decided they would haveyto spend the night in their cave to ‘guard it. Larly the other morning “Rattle- snake Jack's” father noticed his son was not at the breakfast table, also} that his bed ‘had nét been-slept in during the night.. Pecorellafsentor, inquired of+hia son, Tony,, as to Johnny's whereabouts: Tony, who is | also a bandit,.admitfed gufltily, that Johnny: had“fpsht"the night ‘fuarding the cave. Ho wis:despatched instant- ly to bring:the fruant:homes: 7 Tony picked up Johnny Good and} Montrose Buder and Georgie Woods. on the way to the cave. All of the} bandits felt little nervous thrills of anxiety; they knew that their trusted | chicf and “Bill the Biter” had spent the night in the cave. When they ar- rived at the vacant lot they saw where the cave should be a sagging hole, with the splintered ends of beams and old strips of tin protrad | ing. Johnny Good ran and brought hetp! and ‘the bodies of the two boys were: mncarthed. ee Then the bandits forgot all about being bandits. They are just little oys again, very sad and very fright- ened. ast FIGHTING BULLS CHARGE AUTO Four Persons Lose Their Lives In Attempt to Escape From Angry Animals, Lisbon.—The famous fightiig bulls ot Portugal displayed thelr aversion .to motor gars recently, when an duto- ‘mobile omnibus with ten passengers. swes’ proceeding along a country high- road near Cintra, Portugal. : A herd of fighting bulls from a cele- brated breeder's establishment sud- denly appeared around a corner.

Chicago.—Following< a-.quarrel be- tween two undertakers over the pos- session of Mrs® Helen , Westland’s body, one embalmer broke down the morgue door xt Passavait hospital and seized the “prize.” = ue ATHU-AMERICAN “CULLINGS: “Ladies living away from Ghicago should think twice before allowing their husbands to take them tliere to. live. In ,Chicago, husbands #ike riches, frequéntly take wings and\: aWfay—or they get ‘away Seomehone I met a number, of women who had rbeen,-deserted- by their husbands In a very short time after they had reached that city. Wife desertion in Chicago surpasses that in any other city. Of’¢ourse*when these run away husbands are caught they are impris- oned, and are paroled ofly on promise that they will support their families? Often the courts collect the money from the employer of a paroled hus- band and pay it over to the deserted familles. Last year the Courts there collected and pald out $75,000. Bur by reason of lack of prominence the coldred brother, bent on deserting his family, finds it easy to make his get away. And he is rarely ever found, and never returns, although he may be having a high old time just around the corner in another blocy. And then the whites have an eftective method of discovering the wanderer (if white) and of persuading him to re- turn home. They advertise for him in the dally papers, especially in the Sunday editions, His chiJdren'write touching letters begging him, if alive, to return. ~Thes€ Tetters: often ac companied by the children’s pictures, are printed in the papers. In many instances the man finds that there is only ode of two things to do, ‘either return home or get off the earth. Concealment in the white light of ‘such’ ‘publicity"is ont of the question. But such a weapon as this would prove ngn-effective In the case of ninetenths of the absconding colored brothers. Hence their families spend the weary years in silent suffering looking as do shipwrecked sallors |for a sall which they know will never return. One woman ran a little lunch coun- ter near the place where the league met. She was trying to make money enough to get back home down in Dixie. She said that when they mov- ed there from the far south, the hus- band soon became fast, the fown was fast, and the two had left her strand- ed and far away from home. The husband had never been seen since he left, pretending to be going to his joo. Hundreds of them never “come back.” Another woman was rusning! 2 shoe shining stand, and while she] polished my shoes she told me her Nlind of woes—husband had been gone for years, leaving her-to bring up and cupport the children ‘who in a few years had also disappeared.
