R. 13, presenting to the Senate on Saturday May 6, a petition urging its immediate passage, according of announcement made recently at the office of the National Association for the Amendment of Colored People presented by Senator Lodge, was drawn up and the signatures obtained by the N. A. A. C. P. Half of the State Governors, as were 38 martyrs of the largest cities, 85 archbishops and leading churchmen of all denominations, supreme court justices from many states and leading lawyers, editors and other publicly known citizens.

ORPHANS' HOME WORKERS MEET EVERY EVENING
$15,000 To Be Raised By May Day.
Corner-Stone Laying, May 30,
By Masons.
Beginning Monday night every worker of the Orphan's Home will meet each night at Poro College from 7 to 8 to make reports on the building fund.
If the meeting of last Moaya evening, when approximately $800 was reported is an indication of the spirit with which the workers are going at their task it seems evident that the goal of $15,000 will be reached by May Day.
May Day celebration this year will include two days, Saturday, May 20th and Sunday May 21st. On Saturday a barbecue will be run on the Orphan's Home grounds at Cottage and Goods Avenue. Refreshments and novelties of all kinds will be provided for those who attend. On Sunday, May 21, comes the big day, the corner stone laying of the new home. From all indications it looks like at least 10,000 will be on hand to witness this affair, under the auspices of the Masons.
Grand Master Clark will have charge of the ceremonies.
MOTHERS' DAY AT Y.M.C.A
One of the big out-standing features on the Y. M. C. A. calendar for the year is the celebration of "Mothers Day." This year's effort to honor mothers and motherhood promises to surpass all previous efforts at Pine Street Department Y. M. C. A. and bids fair to be an occasion long to be remembered in St. Louis.
A Notable Program
The program is under the auspices of the Boys' Division and therefore, besides the very excellent adult members the best boy talent will do honor to mothers in recitation, music and a paper, on "A Boy and His Mother." Special mother songs will be rendered by Messrs Gerald Tyler, Robert Moman and Shelby Nichols all well known musicians' of the city.
Dr. J. A. Martin
Dr. J. A. Martin will deliver the "Mothers Day" message. Dr. Martin is reputed to be one of the outstanding scholars and speakers of the C. M. E. General Conference and will be at his best in this effort to pay due tribute to Mothers and to remind men of their obligation to the "hands that rock the cradle." The meeting will be held in the Gymnasium of Pine St. Y. M. C. A. beginning at 4 p. m. Every Y member is especially expected to come out to make our "Mother's Day" at the Y trusty worthy of the occasion. Every mother is more than welcome and every friend is welcome.

The St. Louis Argus
Declares Bill Now Before Senate Is Constitutional. According To Law And Precedent.
UP TO REPUBLICANS TO PASS THE BILL
Praises Work Of N. A. A. C. P. And Urges All To Join. Advises His Hearers To Use Their Vote To Get What They Want.
More than six hundred persons gathered at Union Memorial Church last Tuesday eye and heard Hon. L. C. Dyer denounce lynching as a menace to any civilization.
During his address Mr. Dyer told his hearers that it was up to the partly in power to pass the anti-lynching bill. He said it was a finish fight, in that every man who did not vote for or favored the bill should be defeated at the coming primary election.
Mr. Dyer referred to the fight against Congressman Kelly in Michigan, and said Congressman Kelly should be defeated.
The representative from the twelfth Mo. District has traveled in many parts of the country making speeches and using his influence in favor of the anti-lynching bill.
When Mr. Dyer was introduced, the wild and enthusiastic applause lasted several minutes. He said in part: "I could not refuse to come here tonight to be with you in as much as I have spent so much time in different parts of the country in a cause which I believe to be right and just. I come here because I want to see St. Louis, my home City rally to the cause, not half-heartedly" but whole-heartedly. There was never a time of greater need for strong and thoughtful men and women than now.
Organization Is Needed
"The way you can best help in this fight is to enlist in the ranks of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. This is the one National organization through which we all can work.
"I want to see the St. Louis branch 5000 strong. By so doing you can be a mighty force for good in this community. You should be proud of this organization whose membership is among some of the best members of this country, both white and colored.
The Texas Burning
"We are in this fight that the Colored citizens may have better protection against mob violence such as took place in Texas a few days ago. I have no doubt but that at least two of the victims of the mob were innocent of any crime whatever. When you read of hate alleged "confessions" remember, it is only the mob's side of the story. Review the 4000 cases of lynchmurder in this country during the past 30 years; and it will show that in the majority of cases men and women have been victims of the most frivolous things."
Constitutional Guarantees
"The constitution of the United States under the Fougteenth Amendment, guarantees equal protection of the law to all citizens alike. This the states have failed to do. Yet they are claiming "states rights" while lynching and burning of human beings are going on. So far as I know not one county official has been punished for neglect of duty, and that why the bill provides for fine and imprisonment for county officials who fail to do all in their power to protect their prisoners from mob violence.
"The best legal minds in the country say the bill is constitutional and I am going to stand by it.
Republicans Responsible
"The party in power is responsible for the passage of the bill in the Sepate, and unless the Republicans pass the bill, you should fight every one who fails with your ballot. I feel it is my duty to tell you this because I put duty above my party.
"Don't be fooled. It is not enough for a Senator to tell you that he favors the bill, actions is what is needed now. Men are being burned at the stake and this is no time for dilly-dallying. If the constitution of the United States is such a farce that it can't protect, then this government is a failure.
"The man who hides behind the unconstitutionality of the bill is a contemptible coward and is only seeking to evade his duty."
Don't support any man for public office who is not willing to pledge his support of the bill in writing.
You have the situation in your own hands. The man who doesn't help self is not worthy of help from others.

FOUR BISHOPS TO BE ELECTED BY METHODISTS
Saturday Noon Is As Hour For Vote. Many Aspirants For Episcopal Honors. Conference Will Adjourn Early Next Week
Prominent among the legislation enacted during the first ten days of the Fifteenth Quadrennial Session of the C. M. E. church which is now in session at Lane Tabernacle, of this city, was the repeat of the Automatic Retirement law which retired the bishops at 70 years of age. It was argued that there were many useful men in church and state at 70.
Thursday afternoon, it was decided to elect four bishops during this session, and the time set for the election was Saturday noon. May 13th. All the aspirants who have any superstition about the "13th" will perhaps be defeated.
Among the many aspirants for Episcopal honors, those who seem to be in the lead before the vote is taken are R. I. Brown, Ala.; J. C. Martin, Tenn.; J. A. Hamlett, Tenn.; J. W. McKinney, Texas. Others who are good contenders are R. S. Stout, Ky.; C. W. Haley, Ga.; N. L. Smith, Mo.; J. A. Bray, Ala.
Dr. Bray's stock took an upward flight Thursday afternoon and it looked as though he would be a real contender in the final round.
With the election of the bishops over, there will be little to do which will hold the attention of the delegates. Therefore, it is understood that the conference will adjourn early next week.
WIDE-AWAKE REVIVAL MEETING AT 1ST.BAPT. CHURCH MAY 14-26
Dr. S. B. Butler Of Indianapolis And Prof. W. M. Nix, Singer Of Texas, Will Assist
By Church Reporter
First Baptist Church conducted an unusual and unique method of advertising this week. Out door moving picture religious services were held each night at different street corners to large crowds, and a wonderfully deep spiritual impression was made. They projected seven reels of the beautiful story of the life of Christ, under the title "Behold The Man." Interspired with singing and gospel message.
Thousands of pieces of printed matter was distributed. Many thousand pieces more will be distributed. Pastor Maxwell says: "A large organization of personal workers will carry the message of the personal touch about Jesus to the church and unsaved masses of our city.
They have been instructed to go out in the name of Christ and win souls to Him. Soul winning is the chief business of the Christian minister, church member and the church. Christ established the church for no other purpose.
When a church ceases to win souls it might as well close its doors.
By soul winning we do not mean stealing members out of churches already established, and training them to utter peculiar shilohlah; we aim rather at bringing souls to Christ than at making converts to our church. We are not sheep stealers, but soul winners. No one is certain that they themselves have been saved until they try their power to win others.
If you cannot win others to Christ it is quite robable that you have not been won to Him. Church members should make their own tests as to whether they are Christians. Dr. A. B. Butler of Indianapolis, Indiana, pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist Church of that city will be, the Evangelist during these meetings.
He is a great preacher and presents the vital message with much power. Prof. W. M. Nix is a National Erangelist and Gospel Singer. He moves men and Brains them to the Savior. He is the most effective gospel singer of the race.
Christians! He that winneth souls is wise." "Sinners!" "Do not let this Harvest Past."
First Baptist is the church, located at the corner of Cardinal and Bell Aves.
"The Big Church with the "Big Heart and the Big Crowds."
"Serve the church that lives to serve."
A man sent his debtors a short letter to remind them of their obligations. He wrote; "Man is dust. Dust Settles."—The Efficiency Magazine.
Day said that lynching was a crime against humanity and that the mob passion is the most dangerous spirit to the body politic. A law against lynching was needed badly that the sigma from this country might be re-

MORRIS STIRS HIS AUDIENCE IN SPEECH HERE
Overflow Crowd Fills All Doors And Windows At Lane Tabernacle During C. M. E. Conference.
MAKES STRONG PLEA FOR RACE LOYALTY
Paints Beautiful Picture Of Race's Possibilities and Pays A Glowing Tribute To Mother.
Standing in the flag draped auditorium of Lane Tabernacle, to address the General Conference of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, Monday evening, Charles Satchel Morris, Jr. nationally celebrated young orator, brought the huge crowd that jummed the spacious auditorium, to its feet repeatedly in delirious of applause. Other hundreds unable to even enter the church peered Arom windowls, stood in the doors, and congregated upon the outside, determined to hear the distinguished speaker. No more representative audience has ever greeted a public man in this city. Bishop vied with laymen, clergymen with school teachers, physicians with business men, in doing honor to the 22 year old Virginia citizen and University of Chicago senior.
Upon being introduced as "The acknowledged leader of the younger generation of his race in America" he indulged in a deal of cleverly selected humor. In referring to the flattering presentation speech he said: "Although I am utterly undeserving of any such lavish encomium, give me my flowers while I am yet living, whether they are the jewelled tributes of eloquent lips, or God's, blushing tokens that bloom in pristine beauty beneath the azure heavens."
Selecting as his subject, "The Rocks with Which We Build," the orator held the vast assemblage in the palm of his hand for an hour and a half.
"May I impress upon you?" inquired he, "that this is a world of mind. If you may change the mind of the world you change, the world. That is the hereclean task to be accomplished by Colored Americans. Each of you exert an influence upon your as-sociates, your fellowmen, and upon the world at large. You can no more refrain from this, whether voluntary or involuntary, than you can dam the Atlantic ocean, arrest the flight of time, confine the cooling zephyr to e cage, or restrain old Sol from kissing the sparkling dew drops in the silver meadows.
"If a revolutionary move is to be effected in society, it must be effected through the individual. Therefore the blocks with which he builds are those that are the foundation of a towering nation, or an inexpressible race.
"There is nothing of more paramount importance than character. It is the God like consciousness that comes from within. It is the force that inspires philanthropy and promotes charity. It is an attribute to God Himself. The old fashioned mother married for love if you please, and not because her finance's name was recorded in Dumu'a or Brendstreet." The worth of a Crosses of a Rockefeller made no emphatic appeal. To think about a honey moon was almost ridiculous, but when the moon faded away, the honey still
HOSPITAL BENEFIT AT ODEON MONDAY NIGHT
HOSPITAL BENEFIT AT ODEON MONDAY NIGHT
An Elaborate Production Of Jesse Shipp's Farce Comedy, "A Trip To Jamalu." Will Be The
This Monday night, May 15, is the date set for the People's Hospital benefit at the Odileen. The attraction will be a musical farce comedy, "A Trip To Jamatu." It is one of the most suspicious productions ever attempted by local talent, and being a charity affair merits a packed house. The play is by Jesse A. Shiju, of New York, an author well known to theatre goers throughout this country and abroad. Mr. Shiju wrote the most successful plays for Williams and Walker, Cole and Johnson, and other noted performers.
"A Trip To Jamatu" will be staged here under the direction of Mrs. W. C. Bridges. The plot carries the action from the offices of an American Get-Rich Quick Enterprise to the mythical kingdom of Jamatu. The employees are actors and actresses, which gives opportunity for a number of very elaborate specialty features. These include: Minstrel Girls. Flower Girls. Oriental Dancers. Dancing Dolls and a chorus of fifty. There is also a wealth of good comedy included. Tickets are on sale in stores, listed on age two's this issue, until Sunday night. The curtain will rise at 5:15.

CHICAGO, IL. May 10—Prof. Richard Theodore Grissner, teacher, poet, statesman, lecturer, writer and the first colored graduate of Harvard, is dead.
He passed beyond Tuesday at his home here, of complications due to his advanced age of 78 years.
Few Americans have had a more interesting, varied, or useful career than Richard Greener. Born in Philadelphia in 1844 of free parents, he had a home environment and educational opportunities far out of the ordinary in those days of slavery. Shortly after the close of the Civil War, he was admitted to Phillip Exter Academy, the famous prep school, and after graduating there, he entered Harvard, the first Negro to matriculate at that institution. The event was so unusual as to be chronicled all over the country. In, and in touch with Cambridge during those days were Charles Summer, Wendell, William Lloyd, Garrison, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Long fellow, Emmerson, and Lowell, Mr. Greener who took a keen interest in life and young people up until his death, frequently remarked as they gathered about him, on the inspiration which these men gave to his life. Prof. Greener served as Librarian and secretary of the University of South Carolina during reconstruction days when black boys were graduated from that institution. He was Dean of the Law Department of Harvard University and the first principal of Dunbar High School, Washington, D. C.
Under, the McKinley and Roosevelt administration, he was both a national and international figure. His meeg signal service as a diplomat was rendered as consul at Vladivostok, Russia. He was also U. S. Consul to Bombay in 1898, during the Russian Japanese War he officially represented Great Britain and Japan and because of his service during the Chinese Boxer War in 1900, was decorated with the order of Double Dragon by the Chinese Government.
Returning to the United States, Mr. Greener became Secretary to the Grant Monument Commission and had charge of the erection of that famous memorial. He was editor of the "New National Era," Washington, and served as examiner on the New York Civil Service Board. Of late years he has lived in Chicago, devoting himself to literary and civic pursuits.

Nomination of BeveridgeFor Senator Upsets Administration. Friends Grooming Him For President.
Associated Negro Press
INDIANAPOLIS. 14.1. May 10. "Indiana has spilled the beans." That remark from a political philosopher, standing on Indian Avenue near the Press Row"summs up a description of the feeling with reference to Albert J. Reveridge, winning the nomination for United States Senator in the Republican ticket, in the recent primary. The results have been amazing to "rock ribbed Republicans" throughout the country except that restless group of un-sentimental zealots who refuse to be comforted with playing the game on old fashioned lines, or new fashioned lines, according to the point of Added to the confusion is the fact view that old line Progressives are urging Reveridge to hold an "old palm" for the "Republican nomination, 1924, if he is elected Senator in November. That means, of course, that the elements from one end of the country to the other, forming the Progressive party of 1912, will regardless of custom, which entitled President Harding to a renomination without opposition, back Reveridge. Seuter Meddl McCormick, of Illinois, Chairman of the Senatorial Campaign Committee, quickly announced, following the results, that the Oceans unit would heartily support Reveridge for election.
The color situation in the recent primary requires careful consideration. Senator New, who for years has been known as the "Colored man's friend," made the square deal one of the issues of his re-annexation. It is safe to say that he had the majority of the old line Colored citizens with him. On the other hand, Senator Reveridge has never been known as a real friend to the race, although during the recent primary, he was able to convince a younger element of voters in various sections of the state that he would give them "fair play."
Reveridge is the orator and New the "gum shot" worker and statesman. The Harding Administration of course, without any official endorsement of the President, was made one of the New issues. Colored voters which at heart in sympathy with Republican purposes, could not be made to feel that National Republican show had been altogether up to advance notices. It was unfortunate for Senator New that Indiana has no national political appointment that may be regarded as "outstanding" among Colored citizens. Other senators who are up for re-nomination this year are deeply concerned about the Indiana results, as this was the first test of strength. Many to be re-nominated, have Colored constituents, and the water, is not the clearest, and what to do, is a moored question. Colored Reveridge supporters were influenced more by faith than by sight.

THREE WHITES UNDER ARREST
Suspected Of The Crime For Which Four Negroes Have Paid Their Lives As Victims Of The Lynchers' Rope And The Mobs' Torch.
While The Senate "Sleeps" Lynching Goes Merrily On In The South.
WAICO, Texas, May 9. (Special)—Following the lynch-burning at the same-stake of three Negroes, and the lynch-shooting of a fourth one near Mexico about 30 miles east a here last week, much murder has been manifest among the Negroes in Freestone and Limestone counties. *Many different stories are told about the death of Eula Awsley a white girl who met a foul death just before the lynching took place. No one believes however, that three men took part in the murder of the girl, and now doubt is expressed in many quarters as to whether any Negro committed the crime at all.
Three White Men Held
Much secret surrounds the holding of three white men in connection with the gir' death, two of whom are well known in the community. It is said that strong evidence is against them. The real truth in this case will probably never be known to the "outside world." There is some talk of "doing away" with the white men who are in custody, but who knows?
Negro Uprising Feared
Like the old story of a fear entering the heart when another is woofully wronged, so it is with the white people of the communities where the lynching took place. While the story of Negro uprising gained pretty wide circulation a few days ago, the thought is now, it was okey the conscience of the guilty telling them what ought to be done.
How the Fun Began
As soon as the news began to spread telling of the death of the girl, the men in the county began to drink their bad whiskey and gather in little groups here and there looking for fun. Will Curry was arrested and the mob says he confessed and implicated H. Varner and Mose-Jones. Curry was "turned over" to the mob for "safe-safeing" while the Sheriff and the other part of the mob went to Garner and Jones.
News Sent Out of Lynching
When once the three Negroes were in the hands of the mob, news was sent to adjourning county, telling what would take place that night. When a sufficient number had gathered, a stake prepared and after the other was led to the stake secured, coal oil and gasoline poured on, and the match applied.
Fourth Man Lyneched
Two days later another Negro, Sam Green was lynched because he is said to have threatened some of those who took part in the triple lynching. No action on the part of the state or gentry officials has been taken looking forward to punishing any one who took part in the quadrille lynching. First Quadruple Lynching in Texas
Jones and Yarney had previously been arrested of suspicion and placed in the County Jail at Fairfield. This is the first Quadruple Trucking in Texas within the recollection of the present-day residents. Freestone County gained prominence in newspaper headlines several months ago in connection with wholesale liquor raid in the eastern part of the county by federal officers, state rangers and members of the militia. Prevails to that time several motor-roadhouses operated within its borders, this being one of the causes for marital law being declared in one justice precinct in January.
While The Senate Sleeps
• The worst crimes committed in any civilized country in all the world are seen in the practice of lynching right here in the United States. Lynching-burning is going merely on while the United States Senate sleeps.
KERLIN CASE CONTINUED
14 LEXINGTON, Va. May 10—Alleging the illness of one of its attorneys the Virginia Military Institute recently in the circuit court of Rockbridge County asked for a continuance of the case in which it is involved with Col. Robert K. Kerlin, late of its faculty. Col. Kerlin's counsel was ready but consented to the continuance which will be until the September term of court. There has been nation-wide interest in this case because of the great issues involved and because of the novelty of a discharged professor holding a board responsible in the court for high handed despotism. Prof. Kerlin was discriminated for writing a letter to the governor of Arkansas in which he criticized the conduct of the Flash Riot case. He sent the school for $50,000. The professor of this case was beaten.

ACTIVITIES IN CAMPAIGN FOR FEDERAL PRISONERS' RELEASE
THE PEOPLE'S PAPER
PART TWO
ACTIVITIES IN CAM
FEDERAL PRIS
American Civil Liberties Un-
ing Tactics At Washing-
Favorable Res
NEW YORK. N. Y. May 10.—A statement summarizing the present activities' in the campaign for the release from federal prisons of the 114 remaining political prisoners was sent recently by the American Civil Liberties Union to its lawyers, correspondents and local committees all over the country with an appeal to write the President again for' the last time urging amnesty."
The statement prophesies early results in the release of the remaining prisoners in view of the fact that for the first time all the information about the 114 men has been assembled from the court records and presented to the Government, to replace the reports of the trial prosecutors, which the Civil Liberties Union characterizes as grisant and prejudiced." The prophecy of results is also based upon the influence of the Children's Crusade at Washington where a group of wives and children of the political prisoners will campaign until their efforts bear fruit.
The Civil Liberties Union's grantment signed by Prof. Harry F. Ward, chairman, and Roger N. Baldwin and Albert DeSilver, directors, follows:
"The 114 remaining political prisoners will undoubtedly be released by the President's commuting their sentences. It is unthinkable that the Government will compel these men to serve the full sentences imposed during the war, many of which run twenty years. On that basis it will be many years he for the last of them is out. Everyone understands that these long war sentences were imposed only for disciplinary purposes and that it was never intended that they should be served. That has been the specific statement of numerous trial inmates and of Government officials. It is only a matter of time when the sentences will be commuted and the men released. "They have not been commuted in these 114 cases because of the public criticism of the commutations of sentence of Debbs and 17 other political prisoners released last Xmas. The opposition of a few reactionary groups has succeeded in preventing further releases since
"In only one of the 114 cases of the men in prison has there ever been a review by the Government o the trial and reduction of the original sentence. That one case is that of Rev. Wm Madison Hicks of Oklahoma, reduced by President Wilson from 20 to 5 years. The policy of reviewing the cases and cutting down the sentences from a war basis to a peace-time basis was stopped shortly after Attorney-General Palmer took office. Over 200 cases had previously been so handled. These 114 men in prison have never had the benefit of a real review. The trial took place during the war in the midst of hysteria when it was impossible for a jury to acquit in the face of the prejudice involved against those with a pacifist or radical views. The trial records show abundantly numerous cases of injustice. In every other country men convicted merely of such expressions of oinin have long since been released.
The campaign for the release of these men is going on without let-up, whatever the attitude of the Administration. The President and the Attorney-General have both said ever since Christmas that the issue is closed for the time being, that they had reviewed the cases in December, and that no further action is contemplated, now. We think that the President and the Attorney General will change their views with the facts in hand. In December they did not have the facts, merely the reports of the trial prosecutors. We do not expect outright parallels. There has never been a disposition to grant parallels in any of these political cases. The releases have all been by reducing the sentences to expire at a given date. In no case has citizenship been restored.
"Public opinion is increasingly favorable to amnesty. A substantial number of newspapers throughout the country have editorially advocated it, practically all liberal and labor press have long been in favor of it and the religious press is now generally committed to it. All branches of the labor movement have passed resolutions urging amnesty time and qaig, as have many religious, civic and other organizations. There is no active opposition
"The American Civil Liberties Union has been conducting a continuous campaign for the release of these prisoners since last October when it opened up a special office in Washington in charge of a director on all time. Plecking tactics were adopted in the form of daily demonstrations before the Disarmament Conference. Delegations were sent to the White House and publicity resulted in building up a formidable secured on a national scale all of which sentiment. The result was the release on Christmas day of seventeen political prisoners, including Eugene V. Debs.
"The comments throughout the country on these releases were considered by the Administration as politically unfavorable and led to their decision that no further releases would be con addressed. There has not been a single commutation since Christmas, expert of one tubercular inmate at Leaveoverworth, and of one man convicted under the Espionage act who never went to prison, but was freed just before being ordered to go.
negotiation has, been maintained throughout. We have found officials at the Department of Justice willing to cooperate in getting at the real facts. We have found many members of Congress really interested in the release of the prisoners. But we have found the President and the Attorney General exceedingly reluctant to consider the matter at all. /
"Definitely the work which has been done to date and which is now finished, is as follows:
1st. Abstracts of the evidence in all the 114 cases has been furnished the Department of Justice except of those in the I. W. W. conspiracy case. Sacramento, Calif., where there was no court record because of the defendants' refusal to testify, and as few other individuals who failed to respond.
2nd. A brief of over 40 pages prepared by Albert Delilver and Walter Nelles, attorneys, has been submitted to the Attorney General reviewing the whole subject and giving all the essential facts.
3rd. A hearing before the Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives was held, on March 16th at which all the facts were aired again, with however, no prospects of action by the committee toward recommending amnesty to the President.
4th Fifty-one Congressmen signed a resolution addressed to the President personally advocating the release of politically prisoners. 5th. Senator Borah introduced a resolution on January 25th calling on the Department of Justice for full information on political prisoners. The Civil Liberties Union has furnished Senator Ronarah with much information, which was not in the Department of Justice's possession, and has analyzed for him the Department of Justice's report which was submitted to the Senate on March 9th. 6th. An exhaustive statement was submitted to the President on March 24th, criticising the whole system of banning pardons in the Department of Justice and urging the appointment of a commission to judge the cases of the remaining political prisoners and also change in the Department's present practices. This was signed by a number of well-known lawyers and publicists.
7th. A special pamphlet has been prepared dealing with the I. W. W. cases, which are the most misunderstood of the who's groups and which make up 97 of the 114 still in prison. That pamphlet will be ready for distribution the week of May 1st.
8th. An endevor was made to get the 70 I. W. W. prisoners at Leavenworth who have refused to make application for clemency to make their views and their position in some form either to the Government of the CIVIL Tuberties Union Representatives of the Union went to Leavenworth to interview the men for this purpose. Individual responses have been made but no collective statement has been agreed upon.
9th. In addition to these efforts the Socialist Party has made a special investigation "of the Oklahoma cases through Mrs. Bertha Hale White, who went to Oklahoma personally 'to get the material. The General Defense Committee of the I. W. W at Chicago is circulating petitions wholesale throughout the country in an effort to get a million signers for the release of the $. W. W, prisoners. Mr. and Mrs. Frank P. O'Hare of St. Louis have organized a 'Children's Crusade' of the wives and children of political prisoners to present in person at Washington their plea for the release of all the men.
"Everything that can be done to get the act before the Administration has been done. If the Administration now fails to act, the campaign will be continued the most vigorous and dramatic tactics possible, all directed to the President, who alone has the power to act. This, the various forces, who in the campaign are prepared to do jointly."

THE ARRIVAL OF SPRING
The fragrance of sweet flowers arise.

The wistering birds sing high over

With wings to the bosom of the air

The wistering grass and clover green.
Are watered from brooks and springs

The earth is feeding on the slope of the hill.
Where all, is quiet and lovely and still.
The robin and zaven doth gaily sing.
As if to announce the arrival of Spring.
One trouble with so many business men is that when they were making huge profits they gave much thought to what they would do with their success, but gave no thought at all to what should be done in the event of failure.
CHARRED BODIES OF MAN AND WIFE FOUND IN RUINS
Mystery Surrounds Burning Of The Home Of Joe And Sarah Saunders In Which Their Bodies Were Found.
MARSHALL, Mo. May 8. - Mystery still surrounds the tragic death of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Saunders whose charred bodies were found in the ruins of their home after a fire about a wagge day.
According to a statement issued by Dr. B. C. Bradshaw, corner, there are no facts to bear out the suspicion of crime in connection with the death of the elderly couple.
The coroner said that he based his conclusion upon examinations of the bodies and the testimony of sworn witnesses who were questioned. There were no marks or brushes on the bodies to indicate violence, neither gunshot wounds nor effects from the use of a blunt instrument. No bones were fractured.
"From the evidence and the physical condition of the bodies I can find nothing to dispute the belief that Saunders and his wife died from the flames," Doctor Bradshaw said.
Robert, Falls, and Irall Sayles, sons-in-law of Sarah Saunders, were questioned by the coroner. They declared they knew of no reasons to suspect a crime in connection with deaths. Their wives, they said, were of the same opinion.
Mr. and Mrs. Saunders were sleeping in a room on the second floor. The bodies were found in the basement. There was burged debris, beneath the bodies and over them were first the bed mattresses, then the springs and finally the iron bedstead. It is presumed that they were asphyxified by the smoke and gases and that when the floor gave way one end of the bed
fell first, causing it to turn over. The fire started in the lower part of the house.
Well-known In St. Louis
Mr. Saunders was well known in St Louis, he having married Miss Minnie De Haven, "Information" girl at Poro College about 2 years ago, but was divorced in a short time. He was a 3rd degree Mason and was well known throughout Saline County. His sister, Mrs. J. B. Alexander, 3553 Lawton Ave, and her husband attended the funeral services at Marshall last week:
Mr. Saunders was 69 years old and his wife was 67 at the time of their untimely death.
He owned property at Malta Bend as well as his home at Marshall and was regarded as being in good circumstances.

When Black Meets White
By John Louis Hill
For Associated Negro Press
Chapter IV. 7th Installment
To bring about *dressed* social recognition of the Colored people, the South must change its sentiment, and the North must make good its long patience toward them. It will be much easier for Southern white people than for white people of the North to do so.
White people of the South have been and are close to the Negroes. The temperaments of the two races in the South are more closely allied, and psychologically they have much more in common than have the two races in the North. In the South they do not to "get used to" each other. In the anti-bellum days many white children of the aristocracy tugged at the black mammals breasts. In those days Colored coachmen, holding whip and reign over prancing stead, sat; the finest, ladies of the land, "Mammy," the housewife. "My children—my white folks—my big house—my company" were common expressions of these grand old colored women, than whom no finer type of faithful, gentle, loyal people has ever been known.
When this change of sentiment has been wrought in the South, when the white race ceases to hold prejudice against black race because of color, the task of social readjustment will have been accomplished, for the two races do not have to learn to understand and appreciate each other. In the North it is different, for theoretically, since the Civil War there has been no line of social demarkation between the two races. But for the most part recognition of social equality has been the theorem. This has not been due to any appreciable difference between character and temperament of the white people of the two sections, but because of the North does not know the Colored people as does the South. And the Colored people do not understand the white people of the North as they understand Southern white folks. But when both sections abandon the idea that the race problem is a section-one, and the nation as a unit, awakens to the necessity of humane racial adjustment, the time will soon come, when no worthy individual of the Colored race will cause to complain of not being properly recogniz-

TORONTO, Can., May 10—The first anniversary of the organization of the Coloridge-Taylor choir was celebrated at the duskest moment. Methodist Church under the direction of Robert P. Edwards conductor and Ernest A. Richardson associate conductor. The chorus of forty-five voices excelled in their rendering of a number of the old lubberie songs, while the two original compositions "Simply Trusting" and "Ole to Canadi" were outstanding features of a varied and attractive program. Southern melodies, folk songs, goes from the famous "Daniel" with three fine quartettes, combined to show the progress which this standard chorus of Toronto's colored singers has been making in its musical career. The accompanists were Mrs. Serena Bass and Mrs. J. Alison Jenkins. The directors of the chorus are Mr. Isaac Lewis, Mr. Charles Sharpe, Mr. Richard Carter, Mr. Charles Jackson, Mr. Leon Joseph and Mr. J. Alison Jenkins.
The intention, as expressed in their own words, "is to create a standard chorus that will be an honor to the community; a credit to our race and approval of the God who gave ear to the song: of our fathers."

— Wise Methods of Reform.
1. Hezekiah Proclaims a Passover (vv. 1-18).
The way for a sinning and divided people to get back to God and be united, is around the crucified Lord.
1. The Invitation Was Representative of the Nation (vv. 2a). The king took counsel with the princess and the congregation to show that the proclamation was the expression of the nation's desire.
2. The Time Was Unusual (vv. 2b-4). There was not sufficient time to sanctify the people, nor to gather them together at the regular time, so they resolved instead of postponing it for a year to hold it on the fourteenth day of the second month. This liberty had been granted before in an exigency (Num. 9:6-13). This flexibility with reference to the holding of the passover shows that God's ordinances were made for man and not man for the ordinances.
3. The Scope of the Invitation (vv. 5-9). It included all of both nations who would come to keep the peaceover to the Lord God of Israel. "Israel" is now used to include both kingdoms. The effort was to win back the nation which had seceded. The posts who were sent with the message were authorized to supplement the proclamation with urgent exhortation to join as a united nation. This urgent invitation was tacitfully put as follows—
(1) It touched ancestral memories—"Turn again unto the Lord God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel" (v. 6). Both kingdoms had a common ancestry. (2) Recent bitter experience—"Be not like your fathers, and brethren, who trespassed against the Lord God, and were given up to desolation, as ye see" (v. 7). This was a delicate subject, but their ruin was so marked that such truth could be pressed. (3) Yearning for captive kinskof—"Your brethren and children shall find compassion before their captors" (v. 9). (4) The instinct of self-preservation—"So that they shall come again into this land" (v. 9). (5) The forgiving mercy of God (v. 9). God will not turn any sincerse seeker away from Him. "Him that cometh unto, Me I will in no wise cast out" (John 6:37).
4. Israel's Reception of the Invitiation (vv. 10-12). This invitation in Israel met a mingled reception. (1) Some mocked. The urgent and sincere invitation only excited opposition and ridicule. (2) Some with humble hearts came to Jerusalem. This is ever the case. The gospel is a savior of life unto life and death unto death. 11. The Passover Kept (vv. 18-27). 1. Altars Removed (vv. 13, 14). In the time of Ahaz (ch. 28:24), these heathen altars were erected in Jerusalem. Before there could be worship of the true God all these traces of idolatry must be removed. This act of the people was voluntary, and shows that a right spirit actuated them.
2. The Passover Killed (v. 15).
3. The Priests and Levites Ashamed (vv. 15-20). The zeal of the people put to shame the priests and Levites. They were stimulated to perform their duties according to the law of God as given by Moses. They even took charge of the killing of the passover, sling many of the officers were not sanctified so as to render this service for themselves. Though unprepared ceremonially, yet they took part in this most sacred service and were accepted as worshipers through the intercession of Hezekiah. God accepted the purpose of heart rather than the letter of the law.
4. The Praise of Glad Hearts (vv. 21, 22). They continued seven days with gladness: (1) The Levites and priests sang God's praise daily on loud, instruments (v. 21). (2) Hezekiah's comforting words to the Levites (v. 22). He commended them and their teaching of the knowledge of God. (3) They made confession of their sina to God (v. 23).
5. The Passover Prolonged Seven Days (vy. 23-27). The king's object in prolonging the feast was to make as fasting an impression as possible, so as to result in the thorough conversion of their souls to God.
Holy Communion.
In the holy communion we plead, the great sacrifice which can never be repented. As Joseph's brother held up the blood-stained coat before their father to tell him in a touching way that Joseph was dead, so in the holy communion we hold up as it were the blood-stained coat before the Father in heaven.—The Bishop of London.
The Wicked Flee,
the wicked flee when no man pursueth; but the righteous are bold as a lion.—Proverbs 28.

He accompanied his wife to the church intending to go on to a public place where men gather and spend the evening in various conversations. But instead, he decided to go into the church and listen to the sermon, but with no thought of making an effort to present himself for prayer but not in the audience. While Rev. Gaines was delivering his sermon, he repented believed and was happily converted. Much good was accomplished by the way of reviving the Christian army and his work among us will be long remembered.

Geyer was knocked into the ropes in the first round, and again felled him in the fourth. Jackson was not in danger at any time of the fight. Before the fight had gone far into the first round Geyer was bleeding freely from repeated blows in the face.

TESTIMONIAL TO TROTTER
(By J. A. Jackson of the Billboard)
Associated Negro-Press
BOSTON, Mass., Apr. 25—About
a thousand fellow townmen, with a
few visitors from elsewhere, gathered
at the A. M. E. Zion Church on April
19th where a testimonial to the esteem
with which Wm. Monroe Trotter's et-
factors were acknowledged by the presentation
of a purse of more than Five Hundred
Dollars.
The occasion marked the 50th birthday of this warrior, and it was very apparent that as he listened to words of praise from associates of his youth in Boston and fellow students at Harvard, a quarter of a century since that he had not lived in vain. When he heard tributes from the lips of persons who had felt reason to appreciate his works, yet whose homes were as far distant as Denver, Tulsa and Seattle, it was difficult for the observer to determine the precise extent of emotions what were aroused in the bosom of his body by virtus of his age, of much more than famed to antagonism and vilification. He at least was assured that after all the bitterness of battle had justified itself.
After the program had been use-
sented, Mr. Trotter responded with a speech that did justice to the Trotter known to the American platform and public for his force and fire. The thing was too intimately personal—too deep moving or pyrotechnics. He saw many close friends, and too many who hurt him, and felt him the greatest tribute available to aighter that of Respect—to be talkative. He was just grateful, and the big audience felt rather than just heard his appreciation.
NEGRO MUST BE PROUD OF RACE, SAYS MOTON
NEGRO MUST BE PROUD OF RACE, SAYS MOTON
Tells Education Association That
Books Written By Negroes
Should Be Studied.
Associated Negro Press
COLUMBUS, Ga. May 3—The feature of the annual meeting of National Association for the Advancement of Education in the State of Georgia and the Georgia Association of Teachers in Colored Schools, which was held here during the past week, was the address delivered by Dr Robert R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute, Dr. Moton urged the teachers emulate the importance of race pride; of using Negroes of all of thrift; and to inject the spirit of co-operation and faith in humanity into the lives of the children and adults in their communities. Among other things he said:
"One of the essential elements of a great people is pride in race. The Negro, in order to take his rightful place among the other great races of the world, must be proud of his race and believe in the possibilities of the race. I know of no better manner of acquiring these necessary attributes than through the study of books written by Negroes. In this way the youth of the race will learn of the accomplishments of the race and that the Negro does not belong to a cursed or inferior race but rather to one which has produced many remarkable men and women and which have made many contributes towards the development of this country. Such knowledge of the achievements of members of their race, who with limited advantages have attained eminence along all lines, will inspire faith and pride in race as well as inject a spirit of belief in the possibilities of the race, which is so necessary to the future progress of the Negro here in America.

Associated Negro Press
CHIGAGO, Bll. May 10—Who is the most beautiful Colored woman in America? That question, together the event and a Woman's Civic band of with scores of others will be answered during the Pagenat of Progress, to be held in Chicago, July 29 to August 14.

STOMACH TROUBLE AREDUE TO ACIDITY
Tells Safe, Certain, Speedy Relief For Acid Indigestion
So-called stomach troubles, such as indigestion, gas, sourness, stomach ache and inability to retain food are in probably nine cases out of ten, simply evidence that excessive secretion of acid is taking place in the stomach, causing the formation of gas and acid indigestion.
Gas distends the stomach and causes that, full, oppressive, burning feeling sometimes known as heartburn, while the acid irritates and inflames the delicate lining of the stomach. The trouble lies entirely in the excess development or secretion of acid.
To stop or prevent this sourcing of the food contents of the stomach and to neutralize the acid, and make it bland and harmless a teapoonful of Bisurated magnesia, a good and effective corrector of acid stomach should be taken in a quarter of a glass of hot or cold water after eating or whenever gas, sourness or acidity is felt. This sweetens the stomach and neutralizes the acidity in a few moments and is a perfectly harmless and inexpensive remedy to use.
An antifacid, such as Bisurated Magnesia which can be obtained from any draggist in either powder of tablet form enables the stomach to do its work properly without the aid of artificial digestents. Magnesia comes in several forms and is certain to ask for and take Bisurated Magnesia, which is especially prepared for the above purposes.

STARS DROP FOUR STRIAGHT TO THE A. B. C'S
St. Louis National League Club Completly Smothered By Indianapolis In Season's Opening Series Charleston Stars At Bat.
The St. Louis Stars lost their fourth game in succession to the Indianapolis A. B. C's Tuesday. The score was 9 to 5. In all four of the games (the boys showed the lack of practice on a real diamond as the only work they got at home was on the lot at Gramp and Market and it would be a joke to accuse that place of being a baseball ground). The players are in poor shape and the Indianapolis batters have their slugging tugs on mostly due to having finished a series with the Cubans. The Cubans, as a rule fornish any team in the all-out pool competition—and the A. B. C's according to reports, from Stars they are up, against a team in mid-season form. The poor start, however, has not discouraged the boys in the least and Manager Gatewood reports that the team is out their fighting just as hard as they thought the beasts were coming their way.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. May 7 — In living up to their name of the St. Louisers, the Indianapolis A. R. C. tied away both games of the turn bill with the St. Louis Stars Sunday. The first game, which was pitched by the veteran leftfielder, a left-hander, and Drake, star hunter of the Stars, started out in the fashion. At the end of the third inning the score was 1 in favor of the Stars, but the A. R. C. got to decide with their heavy battery and four in bad hit. Their move. Seven runs were made in this inning and four more in the fifth. This ended the scoring 12 to 2 in favor of the home boys. In the second game, Mahoney worked the corners for the A. R. and got two hot water right away letting the visitors come up the run four times in the first inning. He caught down in the second inbound throw and out them down order frequently in the remaining frames. Fliner pitched a good game.

Jeff City Mohawks Take Two From Columbia Blues
By John J. Reed
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., May 8—The Jefferson City Mohawks, scored two victories over the Columbia Bues Saturday and Sunday at Lincoln Park here. The Mohawks massacred the Columbia Blues in the Saturday game, by hammering several pitchers out of the box and winning by a score of 18 to 8, amid much enthusiasm on the part of the large audience of both white and colored Baseball boosters, Britt, pitcher for the Mohawks, was in prime condition and did good work, in Saturday's game, receiving excellent support from every member of the team. The Mohawks pounded the Blues for seven runs in the fourth inning and five in the sixth, thus taking a lead the visitors were never able to overcome.
In the Sunday game Manager Robinson of the Mohawks, placed as his battery, Smith pitcher, the newest addition to the Mohawk's team, who recently signed up here coming from Kansas City where he formerly played with the Monarchs; and Ralph Price, the old reliable receiver of the Mohawks. The scouts of the Sunday game was 3 to 2 in favor of the Jefferson City club. Johnny Vivian, the famous Central Missouri pitcher, twirled the ball for the Columbia Blues but went down to defeat as a result of the heavy hitters of Mohawks. A large and lush plastic crowd witnessed the Sunday game, which was a pitcher's battle. The Mohawks will play two games with Slater Rear Cats Saturday, May 13 and Sunday, May 14. The Rear Cats are considered one of the strongest teams in Central Missouri and a large crowd is expected to attend the two contests.

"Jack Johnson is remarkable for his
age. No man can be that good unless
he is a clean liver, but don't look for
him ever to be another champion. His
wind is bad and he is carrying extra
weight that he cannot work off. When
he was right, he weighed 205; now he
weighs 230 and Father Time has counted
him out. Watch for Harry Wills.
He's got 'em and will surely whip
Dempsey if he ever gets a chance"
The above is Battletling Ball's opinion of the ex-champion. Ball accepted the invitation to box with the big fellow at the Gayety last week. He says he did not go to see if Jack could whip Dempsey or Wills, but to get some ring knowledge on "how to win my future battles". Ball says, "I hit hard with both hands. When I hit them right, I am not surprised when they are knocked out, but I am surprised when they don't fall. I know I don't hit correctly yet. I know Johnson is a past master of the manly art and I need craftiness, so I was glad to box a few rounds with him. Boxing is my business and I am going to make it my business to see that I hit hard and correctly. This season, boxing has been very poor business. During the past winter I was at Dayton, Cincinnati and Indianapolis. I receive mail regularly from New York and Pittsburgh. The title is the same everywhere "Dead". I intend to stick however, until the game pays me for the time I have spent learning."
