A mob of 50 men stormed the jail in search of a Negro who was being held for assaulting a little white girl, but who had been secretly sent to St. Augustine by court officers early last night, following threats of violence.

TRIED IN TEXAS. DALLAS, Tex., Sept. 5. In order to insure against any violence being done the defendant, Robert Griggsby, Negro youth-charged with attempted criminal assault on two little white girls, was given an examining trial in the county jail yesterday. As the hour for the trial approached, a considerable group of men was observed gathered near the door of Justice Alexander's court room. Justice Alexander and Assistant District Attorney Grady Niblo agreed it would not be wise to run the risk of an attempted lynching, since the Negro so narrowly escaped being hanged by a mob at Wilmer shortly after his capture Sunday. Bond was fixed at $5,000. The principal witnesses heard were J. M. Dockery, farmer living near Wilmer, and his two little daughter, whom Griggsby is accused of having accosted. The children said that the Negro had leaped from behind the weeds at the roadside and had pursued them for about a quarter of a mile, when their screams apparently frightened him and he left the road and ran through a field. Mr. Dockery told of having trailed the Negro by his footprints in the soft earth for a mile, until, entering the river bottoms, he was suddenly applauded of the Negro's presence by a shot fired into the water from the other side of the stream. He compelled the Negro to accompany him back to the house, where he turned him over to Deputy Constable Will Greene, Grigsby's capture-by the mob and rescue by Deputy Sheriff Seale and Richards and Mr. Greene followed.

A. C. P. ASKS GOVERNOR IF HE APPROVES OF MURDER. NEW YORK—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 76 Fifth Avenue, New York today telegraphed Governor Charles H. Brough of Arkansas, calling his attention to the fact that the lynching of Flinton Briggs, a discharged Negro soldier, near Star City, Ark., on Monday, Sept. 1, was the second lynching near that city and the fifth in the State of Arkansas since the beginning of the year. The Association's telegram, signed by John R. Shillady, National Secretary, inquired what steps are being taken to apprehend the murderers. The telegram is as follows: September 1, 1912. Governor Charles H. Brough. Little Rock, Arkansas. "The fifth lynching in the State of Arkansas since the beginning of the year and the second near Star City is reported by the press to have occurred Monday, September 1, the victim of the mob murder being accused of having "insulted" a white woman. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People respectfully inquires if the Governor of Arkansas approves unpunished murder, in his own state and asks what steps, if any, are being taken to apprehend the murderers. "John R. Shillady, Secretary." NIGHT SCHOOLS OPEN EARLIER. The Banneker Evening School (Lucas and Ewing avenues) will open on Monday evening, September 15, at 7:30, a month earlier than usual. All books, papers, pens, etc., will be furnished free. That the Negro has contributed his share to the social, intellectual, industrial, religious and commercial rating of this country is a fact top well known to admit of discussion. He has been a hustler among hustlers and a supporter of all enterprises which have caused American thrift to attract the gaze of the civilized world. He has helped the enterprising members of other races to move from the ranks of those who merely make a living to the ranks of those who know ease and luxury. He has helped pave the way and make positions for thousands of young men and women without seriously considering the well being of his own. Through the aid of schools, churches and other institutions he is getting new ideas and seeing new visions. He realizes that the commercial and business side of his life have not been as carefully looked after as should have been, thus he is making steps in a more vigorous manner in paths that lead to new fields of endeavor. In this city very recently a few enterprise and farseeing numbers of the race, headed by Mr. J. W. Brannagh entered the great field of manufacturing boxes, coffins, caskets and other undertakers' supplies. This enterprise has grown to such magnitude that all who visit are reminded to see the enormous output and the scoutland work being done by members of the race in all of the plant's departments. The Elvry Co-op may manufacture the shoes and supplies and above all is making jobs and positions for our young people.

Missouri Negro Republican League Club Resolutions on the Death Of Captain Tandy At a regular meeting of this Missouri Negro Republican League Club, held Sept. 2, 1919, the following preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted: Whereas, it has pleased the Supreme Architect of the universe in the wisdom of His infinite power to remove from our midst our late brother and fellow republican, Captain Charlton H. Tandy; and, Whereas, the intimate relations long held by our deceased brother with the members of this Club render it fit and just that we should place on record our appreciation of his services as a statesman, and his merits as a man, therefore be it. Resolved, By the Missouri Negro Republican League Club of the City of St. Louis, State of Missouri, that, while we bow our heads in humble submission to the mandates of the Almighty God, we do not the less moan for our distinguished fellow citizen, the pendulum of whose life clock has swung to and fro four score and three years has at last ceased its vibration and passed to a state of eternal rest, and be it further. Resolved, That this Club extends its heartfelt sympathy to the family and relatives of our departed brother in this their darkest hour of sad bereavement and we would have them know that in the heart of every member of this club is a monument dedicated to the memory of this stalwart republican who loved his fellow man, and be it further. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be presented to the family of our beloved brother and that a similar copy be entered upon the minutes of this Club that unborn generations may know of the love and esteem in which we held this pioneer of our race, who like the towering oak of the forest that hath withstood the vicissitudes of many years, to at last be bewn down by the Master Woodman of the Universe. And we who are left feel as one who trends alone. Some heaven will deserved. The Club also gave a vote of thanks to Col. Nickolas Bell for his kind remarks at the funeral. ROBT. T. SCOTT, President.

SOUTH NEEDS COLORED MEN Effort To Get Them To Return To Cotton Fields, But No Promise Is Made Of Political. And Civic Rights. MEMPHIS, Tean. — Mississippi wants her Negroes back from the north and has on foot a plan which provides for the return of hundreds of families before winter sets in. According to investigators, many of them representing communities in the state, there are hundreds of southern Negroes in the north who are anxious to get back to Dixie. The biggest problem they face is the means of returning. The problem faced by Mississippiians wanting them is to get in touch with them class of Negro they say they will bring back. The Mississippi Welfare League is sponsor for the plan that probably will be followed. It detailed a representative to study the situation. His recommendations were approved and the league now is placing its proposals before commercial clubs and other civic organizations throughout the entire state for endorsement and support. The leading cities in the rich delta section of the state, including Greenwood, Clarksdale, Greenville, Indianola, Leland and others, have already given assurance of support and the entire state undoubtedly will back the project. Want Cotton Field Laborers. They are especially interested now because of need of Negro labor in cotton fields for the next 150 days, followed by the yearly demand for Negro labor of all kinds resulting from a big cotton season. In a general way the plan of getting Negroes from the north has two main features. First—To establish offices in Chicago, St. Louis and several other cities, place capable and responsible representatives in each and get in touch with such Negroes as are properly recommended and who desire to return to the south. Second—To supply each office with complete literature of the numerous cities and communities where there is an immediate demand for Negro help, and to furnish proper and timely information about the state to offset propaganda issued by industries and political forces which are characterized as the real agencies in alluring and holding southerners Negroes in the north.

Taylor avenue, was discharged in Judge Chancy Kruger's Court, Friday, Sept. 5, on the charge of running over a white child, daughter of a police sergeant. There were about 30 white witnesses who seemed to be empelled by prejudice, rather than a spirit of justice in their testimony. These witnesses who first swore that young Whittler had run over the child, were compelled by the defendant's attorneys to admit that they saw the girl run into the truck. The plaintiffs had an extra lawyer to help the State prosecute the case. Many of the best white people of the city, including Ex-Governor Major, were present to see a fair trial. The defense was conducted under the direction of the Automobile Under- writers of America. Co-operative Liberty Co.

August 26 29 in the Elks Hall with Grand Daughter Ruler Mamie R Hodges in the chair. The Supreme meeting was opened with a fervent prayer by the Supreme Chaimai. So great was the attendance that the half would not accommodate the members but the meeting was transferred to a large and very commensal hall known as Fitzgerald's Auditorium. A very pointed talk was made by one of the daughters emphasizing the fact that the daughters were not a separate organisation, but were part and parcel of the Elks' brotherhood bone of their bone and skin of their sinew. This talk was the more impressive and acceptable since she was one of the founders of the order. This order having been founded in 1922 in Norfolk, Va., that old historic city by the sea, so rare to the site of Jamestown, when the English Fathers landed in 1697. She also spoke of the discouraging the object by the of the brother Elks the ladies as an auxiliary. But she shed part and parcel of the Brotherhood of Elks.

MADDEN FOR RACE RIGHTS MADDEN FOR RACE RIGHTS Southerners In Congress Oppose Move To Give Colored Equal Accommodations WASHINGTON, Sept. 6. — "Equal and identical rights, accommodations and privileges" for Negroes on railroad trains in interstate transportation were urged before the House Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee yesterday by Representative Madden, Republican, of Chicago and a delegation of Negroes. An amendment to the pending railroad bill for the purpose of making "Jim Crow" cars of southern states unlawful was recommended. Madden has introduced a bill for this purpose. "It occurred to me," he said, "that while Congress is considering the propriety of transferring the railroads back into the hands of the owners, it would be entirely appropriate to embody a provision in the legislation which would recognize the equal rights of our American citizens. The government has no right to draft its citizens in defense of its flag and compel them to yield up their lives that the country may be able to live ahd at the same time say to those people that their rights are inferior to those of other citizens of the United States." Madden said Japanese and Chinese, not even citizens, are given equal rights on trains, and added. "There cannot not be any special accommodation for any one class that is not furnished all classes. There ought not to be any segregation as between people on a given car." You want to force the Negroes to ride in the cars with the white people when the Negroes themselves would rather be in the separate cars," said gested Representative Rayburn, Democrat, of Texas. "I deny that the Negroes would rather be in the separae cars," said Madison. "I deny that you understand the Negro." Rayburn said. Representative Sanders, Democrat, of Louisiana added that white men were prohibited from riding in Negro coaches. "We of the south," he added, "contend that the Negro prefers separate accommodations. Our Negroes down south, knowing they are not welcome in the white man's coach, don't go in. You will admit that the great majority of Negroes of the country live in the south." "Yes, but I don't see what that has to do with this. I think they should be treated the same in the south as in the north." Madden declared. "You did not think that when you voted to keep the country wet," suggested Sanders. "I was for one law on prohibition," explained Madison. "I wanted it wet all over the country. "The Negroes are being treated better in my country than in your city of Chicago." continued Sanders. "The affair in Chicago was an unfortunate situation that no one can explain." Madden said. "The Neurosist," Sanders asserted, "are treated better in the south than in East St Louis or in Springfield in your state. You are bringing in a bill to force Neurosist to ride in white jeans, regardless of their wishes." Madden said he wanted the law to be uniform all over the country. GEO. W. F.

Houtts reporte: MT. OLIVE BAPSTIST CHURCH, 1429 N. 12th ST. Many, many good things transpired here on last Sunday. The fresh, pure dawn with its early breezes were inedible with fervent prayers and songs from grateful, loving hearts, assembled to give homage to our Creator God.

St John, 5th chapter, 17th verse, was the text chosen by Dr Peck last Sunday morning. Theme: "The Inspiration of a Life Work." The pastor took a broad scope in the discussion of his subject. Beginning with the days of Adam he clearly defined the necessity of choosing a life work. When Adam was driven from the garden and doomed to toll for his daily bread the rest of his life, the mandate proved to be a privilege instead of a curse, said the pastor. He emerged a wiser and better man. His kingdom was one of opportunity and respect. When Jesus came to earth he found that kingdom of respect and made his choice of a life work the redemption of all, the redemption of mankind. It is insult upon every individual to choose a life work and it must be unselfishly chosen. We must not think of what the work will be to us, but what it will do for others and what we can do for it. We have race prejudice, wars and persecutions, but God is working unceasingly and so should we. The development of such a race as ours, with the wonderful opportunity to make history, upplift, to save, should fascinate, should enthuse. God is working unceasingly on the job and so should we. Take Victor Hugo we must realize that our life work is begun here but completed in eternity. We go down to the tomb in the twilight with our work half finished and emerge in the dawn. God was from the The evening lesson was from the 5th chapter of Romans, 6th verse. Next Sunday, Sept. 14, will be the last quarterly meeting of this conference year. Rev. Dobbins of Wayman Chapel will deliver the sacramental sermon. Friends and visitors are cordially invited.

LOUIS, MN Henry Braun. for lowest prices in Single and Tiny Grossepie 1700 GOODS AVENUE Subscribe for The St. Louis Since the Washington and Chicago riots, the daily newspapers of the South, have been saying, in effect: "While we lynch Negress in the South we never bother other than the one lynched, all others are safe." Now, comes Knoxville, Tennessee, knocking the axe out that filmmy argument. In a riot that Southern city, Negros were called upon to defend themselves and their homes, as they were called upon in Chicago and Washington. That they manifested a remarkable spirit of defiance in reports of the time has come to the American Negro has been up the famous expression of Marshal Joffre and made if their own: "They shall not mass." The American Negro has been of the most patient and long suffering group of people ever known to history. He is in perfect love with all that is just, and righteous. "Perfect love casts out all fear, and therefore, in defense of his unconded rights, death, today, has real charms. This being the case, and since it has been a long time custom of the rough element of the American whites to hold the Race in subjection by fear, it seems most prudent, wise and timely to come let us reason together." In many communities, North and South, this is being done with one effect. "It may as well be understood, and nothing else should be expected whether this is regarded as a "white man's country"—even though it was stolen from the Rest man, who has always been friendly to the black man—or not, the American Negro has a new point of view, which all indies cannot wipe out. Listening to the Siren of righteousness, justice, liberty, freedom and democracy, he has accepted the tenor of their way, and with keen eyes, set face steady treal, open mind and set strong arm, acks nothing more, and certainly will take nothing less. Neither the aggressor nor the oppressor, the American Negro places his cause before the right thinking, people of the nation, who, in every crisis, have been the victors. South Has No Charges Encouraged by the recent troubles in Northern communities, numerous Chicago, and other cities, with the most glowing inducements to Colored people, urging them to come back to the land where they are best loved and most understood." In a great mass meeting held in the Eighth Regiment Armory on the night of Labor Day, a question was asked by one of the workers: "How many of you wish to return South?" In every portion of the audience of 4,000 could be heard the expressions "None," "No one." In very truth, this is the universal sentiment. Reports from employment, the cranb League, and Irish members of the Irish community have told themselfs, From the South, little or no encouragement has been received, in the matter of returning South. One man expressed the sentiment of thousands when he said: "I would rather live in Chicago if they had a riot here every day." An other typical individual made a very amusing comment. This happened in the Assembly Room of the Chicago Urban League, and is vouchered for. The big white Southerner was presen-ent, before an assembly of more than one hundred women. He described enthusiastically that on his plantation there are many logs that need sawing up. Railroad transportation would be furnished and four dollars per day paid to the laborers. "How many of you wish to get a job? There was point in it," he replied. Another spoke up and said, deliberately tell you what you do, you send the logs up to Chicago, and we will saw 'em here." "So, that seems to be the one way out, if the South must have addition al help and insist on continuing the political and civic injustices of the present, their logs will have to be sent North if the work is to be done.

WILL PROSECUTE THE MAYORS ON By Associated News Press MERAE, Gail. On the lynching of Berry Washington, 70 years old. Negro, here recently, was called to the attention of a grand jury yesterday by Judge Graham of the Circuit Court. In charging the jury, Judge Tirahm pointed that under the law, all who aided in the lynching were as guilty as the one who actually tried the shot that deprived the aged victim of life. Their outfit, he told the jurors, should guide them in considering the matter. He also directed attention to the fact that Washington, after killing a white man whom he claimed was riotous in the Negro quarter, had given himself up to the sheriff at Milan, and cited the law requiring a sheriff or other officer having custody of a prisoner to give him full protection. "MR. UNKNOWN" STILL HELPING COLORED NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. 10. At the office of the American Lutheran Publicity, Bureau, the Hartford Building, Union Square, word, was received today that "Mr. Unknown so named because his name has never been learned, called yesterday for the twenty-third time at the office of the treasurer of the commission for work among the Colored people as conducted by the Evangelical Lutheran Synodical Conference of North America. "Mr. Unknown brought with him twenty-five new $20 "green-bags." Since his first anonymous call in 1896, "Mr. Unknown" has contributed a total sum of $18,000 at his annual visits. The Lutheran Synodical Conference maintains forty-nine mission congregations where the Gospel is preached exclusively to Colored people. (By A. N. P.) PHOENIX, Ariz., Sep 10,—A. R.

When a woman does as she pleases, even though it be less than the man did, he thinks a great deal of it. The wrong that can be created to just a thought in the mind of a man is the idea behind the fascinating story of "As a Man Thinks" in which Lean Baird is featured at the Penguin Theatre and Tuesday. Written by Augustus Thomas for the stage, this drama of American playwrights has woven a deft and powerful tale about the subject of a double standard of morals. Frank Dayton, stand business man and good husband, was writing in Paris and doing "the artists' colony the saw no firm in his little infiltration with Mimi" the model though he was anxious that his wife should not know about it. When a grateful supplication of his wife crosses his initial method of remembering his little affair he accuses her of indulgence. It is the double standard of morals demonstrated a standard made necessary because in the virtue of women rests the welfare of the world.

It is a play of deep under-currents, telling the story of Air Eurasian girl—the daughter of two races—who feels the eternal conflict of the alien bloods forever within her soul. It is a theme to awake the pulse of the heart and fill the imagination with the irresistible lure of secret Asia—with a splendor like the day and a mystery like the night.

MEMBER MISSOURI PRESS ASSOCIATION MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION SOUTH WANTS "HER" NEGROES BACK. Just who is responsible for the statement as it appeared in the daily papers that the South wants her Negroes back, we are not able to say definitely. The responsibility for the statement does not interest us much, but the expression is characteristic of what seems to be a general mistaken idea among a certain class of people, both North and South, that the Negroes belong to the South. We desire to correct this false idea, and charge it as another form of organized propaganda to rob the Negro of the rights guaranteed him under the Constitution of the United States. To go from state to state is a constitutional right that belongs to every citizen, to enjoy in common with all others alike. The recent war and other conditions in this country stirred up the Negro and has set him to thinking, and thinking brought on acting, and, as a result, millions of our race have left the South to better their condition in life and they came North as if guided by an "unseen" hand. Most of them came empty-handed and were glad to get above the Mason and Dixon line with their souls and body together. Liquid taics of a change in condition surely fall on deaf ears of those who have come hither. The Mississippi Welfare League is said to be sponsor for any organized movement of the South to get "her Negroca" back. It is thought that other Southern states will follow the steps taken by the Mississippi League, whose chief platform is to give the Negro a chance to work. That is good so far as it goes, but it does not go far enough. Civil and political rights are the bone and sinew upon which a free government is founded. And these rights are what the Negro wants, along with all other groups that make up this great nation. It is reported that a mixed committee of white and colored from Chicago have been appointed to make a trip into Mississippi to obtain first-hand information. Report. Committee, report; tell the truth and let us know your findings. If this committee left Chicago in a Pullman car together, we want to know what happened to our colored brethren when they reached the Mason, and Dixon line. We should like to know if these men of color show themselves as "gentlemen" when they reached the borders of Mississippi, or did they defy Governor Bibbs? Were they humiliated by obnoxious signs constantly flaunted before their eyes, "White—Negroes," "White—Colored," conspicuously displayed as if a dead-line! Tell the truth is what we want. We are sure the committee as a whole was quite nervous during their surrption in the South, especially if they "mixed" like men before those Southern crackers, lest the fate that Hon' R. Shillady met in Austin, Texas, a few weeks ago should be theirs. We want to hear the report. JIM CROW CAR LAW IN CONGRESS In his plea for equal accommodation while traveling on the railroads, Representative Madden of Chicago, hit the "Dull's Bye" in a few words that brought amens from twelve million people of this Nation. Mr. Madden appeared before the House Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee, and among other things he said: "Japanese and Chinese, not even citizens, are given equal rights on trains in the South. There ought not to be any segregation as between people on a given car." AN ASSEMBLY HALL NEEDED. The announcement that an assembly hall with a seating capacity of at least two thousand will be built, will no doubt meet with a hearty response from the colored people of this city. This movement is in keeping with the progress of the colored population of this city, and, with the proper location and management, should be a good investment. Organization and cooperation on the part of the Negroes in this city would be a mighty power in the community. We need business enterprises promoted and conducted by men and women of the race. Our commercial standing has much to do with our place in the "Sun." The Harvest Is White, and there never was a time in the history of the Negro in this country has the business opportunities been so much in evidence. Racial pride and racial instinct, does seem to us should suggest a more liberal nationage of the already established businesses among one people. A little encouragement just at this time will being quite a few new endeavors—let us all join in the new movement and—Boost.

CAPTAIN TANDY'S PROFOUND TESTIMONY TO THE PUBLIC ON "THE VALUE OF THE SOUL" CAPTAIN TANDY'S PROFOUND TESTIMONY TO THE PUBLIC ON "THE VALUE OF THE SOUL" St. Louis, Mo., May 12, 1919 [previously published May 10, 1919] This is to certify that I have read carefully Prof. I. Taker's booklet on The Soul of Man. He or she who has given any thought on this subject and regards the hereafter knows this most important book. I find in my research in Biblical and ancient history that the soul of man is the greatest of all subjects to be considered. When King David was in his quietude, he stole away because he knew the value of his soul. And in his prayer he said, "Oh my soul, why art thou so quieted, and why art thou cast down." Because he knew that precious and pure jewel given to man, because he knew a man's body must die, but his soul lives on with God that gave it. The heaven may pass away and the earth may be blotted out, but the Soul lives on. In this recommendation I say, to the young man, to the old man and to all the people of the world, that I cheerfully recommend this little book because of its importance. All of the great prophets and nagent historians, from the existence of the world, have paid particular attention to this thought, the Soul of Man. Tom Payne, the great infidel, and all others, in the extremity of all their misery, had neglected to cultivate the most important part, which was the Soul. Every man should bequeath in memory of his ancestors, this booklet. The Soul of Man" to his future generations; for truly this book should be in every home. If a man has no land, no money, he should leave this booklet and a guard stone for the greatest generation. For the flibk states in getting wisdom, never forget the important part, which is the Soul. Respectfully yours, CAPTAIN C. H. TANDY, 1224 Bayard Avenue.
