Last Thursday morning, Rucker, who had been positively warned by Mrs. Scruggs, came from her home, made a visit despite the woman's protest. When she met him at the door Mrs. Scruggs says he became familiar and insisted on entering her house, and when she objected, he shapped her face, kicked her, using the vilest language he could employ.

She says it was a custom of his to enter her home smoking cigars and that he would never consent to remove his hat when he came to collect for the insurance company he represents. She told our reporter that Ricker canceled her job previously and that she did not have his way at her home, and because she was stubbornly persistent in protecting her womanhood.

Auxiliary Schooner Falcon. $2,000 Taken From Victim Off Key West. MIAMI, Fla., Aug. 3—The wanton pardner and robbery of Captain Edge- c.mb., captain of the British schooler William H. Albury, by white knee has again roused the interest of the British representatives in Florida. Following the maltreatment of a color- ed blacksmith, a British subject, and the running out of a Florida town of a British clerkman a few months ago this last evidence of southern brutality is expected to be followed by definite action. Miami police are following the usual southern dodge when a Negro is murdered by white men and claiming that they have been unable to locate the murderers. It is generally known here that the murderers are members of the auxiliary schooner Fulcon. The murder occurred off Gun Key and $2000 was taken from the murdered man's safe aboard the schooner. The progress of the case, will be watched with interest. Colored residents of Florida resort towns are watching to see the effect of British interruptions in her colored nationals. Syndeme of international affairs are interested in see the outcome of the British action in view of the fact that the United States parties desire responsibility to foreign governments for protection of allied against who have committed state murders. The purpose of the First bill would be to increase the use of anti-terrorism force. The St. Louis Argus KU KLUX KLAN AND THE SOUTH Georgia Has Her Fill Of Reign Of The Invisible Government. Now Wants Order To Disband. A Menace To Civilization. From The Brooklyn Eagle: The manifesto of Governor Hardwick of Georgia against the Ku Klux Klan, threatening to ask the Legislature to make the mere wearing of a mask a crime, and declaring that no secret body shall dominate the State, was probably not expected from Hardwick. He is no sympathetic with the Negroes, but his determination to prevent the establishment, of any impurity, within the limits of the Cracker State is approved by the judgment of sane men, and elsewhere. Even the qualifications of the manifesto are not unreasonable. It is double less true that numbers of men have joined the Klux from entirely creditable motives taking at par value their appeal to American patriotism, however, the greatest evil of the Klan movement springs from its identification in the Negro mind with the Klan of Reconstruction days. This makes it possible for an仪ator like the Jamaica Negro, Marcus Garvey, to assure all the Colored people of the United States that they can never get a square deal in America. Garvey, acting Imperialist in Atlanta with Acting Imperialist in Winston-Salem came away to tell his people that the Ku Klux Klan was hostile to any improvement of the Afro-American's condition. Georgia needs the Negro as much as the Negro needs Georgia. That is the phase of the whole problem that is forcing itself upon the attention of intelligent planters. Sporadic lynchings make the Negro want to move away, up North if to Africa. If to that influence is added the toleration of a secret organization capable of all sorts of terrible work at night against the race, the effect may be easily imagined: Listen to an official document issued by the imperial wizard, notifying the klan of an appointment: To all Genli, Grand dragons and hydras of Realms, Grand Goblins and Kleagues of Domains, Grand Titans and armies of Provinces, Guilds, Dealer Cycops and Terrors of Klantons to all citizens of the Invisible Empire, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan—in the name of our valiant, venerated Dead, I infectionately greet you. Done in the Aulic of his Majesty, Imperial Wizard, Emperor of the Invisible Empire, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, in the Imperial City of Atlanta, Commonwealth of Georgia, on this ninth day of the ninth month of the Year of Our Lord, 1921, and on the Dreadful Day of the Weeping Week of the Mournful Month of the Year of the Klan LV. Think of it! Grown men, presumably with mature men's minds indulging themselves in the childish folly of that! Truly it is a Dreadful Day of a Weeping Week in- a Mournful Monsoon, when a man who calls himself a man, who calls himself an American, will lend his name add his presence and—he is never allowed to forget that!—his infatuation fee, to a proceeding as sinine, for a purpose so poisonous and sinister! STILL MORE LYNCHINGS HOT SPRINGS. Ark., Aug. 2—Punk Harlow, a New York wrestler today and his body dragged through the streets of the business district. It is alleged that Harlow shot and mortally wounded Maurice Conley, a young business man, last night when the latter surprised him robbing Conley's home. Conley died this morning. Lunching in Georgia HOLTON, Ga., Aug. 1—John Gloyer, who has been pursued by a mob for several days, surrendered to the police last night and was lynched.

FOUR COLORED KILLED IN OHIO TRAIN WRECK Fifty Are Injured When A Church Excursion Train And Regular Crash Near Cincinnati. Two Hundred On Way To Picnic. Special To The Argus. CINCINNATI, OHIO, Aug. 2. Six persons dead, including two children; eight injured seriously and more than two score others suffering from minor injuries, were to be what is declared to have been a railroad employee's forgetfulness on the Cincinnati Lebanon and Northern Railroad at the Lester road crossing in Pleasant forgetfulness on the Cincinnati Lebanon and road crossing in Pleasant Ridge, near here Tuesday morning at 10:30. A special excursion train carrying more than 200 members of the Park Street Methodist Church (Negro) Cincinnati, to a church picnic at Highland Grove, collided head-on with train No. 11, southbound. Gives Version of Cause. R. C. Barnard, superintendent of the Pennsylvania Lines, Southwestern Division, which controls the Cincinnati Lebanon and Northern Railroad, said tonight: "From the appearance of the trains after the collision I would say the engineer of the excursion train completely forgot about No. 11 coming down from Lebanon. The excursion train had no right of way against the other train and should have waited at East Norwood on the double track, but if it seems he forgot all about it and came ahead. The engineer of the picnic train, John Meyer is a patient at good Samurian Hospital, seriously scalded, and was unable to give his version of the accident. Meyer was an extra man, it was explained. Two hundred or more Negro members of the Park street church were singing and otherwise making merry to the music of a band of musicians in the three wooden croches of the picnic special as the excursion train steamed north round a slight curve on the single track near the Lester road crossing. Then there came suddenly from ahead, two sharp piercing blasts of a locomotive whistle. It was the regular southbound airmail train which was delayed at 4th time in this place. There was a grinding of breaks on both trains as emergency brakes were applied and throttles thrown The church excursionists, hardly had time to cry out in fright or to murmur prayers before the two locomotives met head-on on the single track. Persons living along the track who realized the impending accident, closed their eyes in horror. The engines locked in steel mbrace with terrific shock. The tender behind each locomotive telescoped the wooden coach blind in each train as the coaches were driven forward. The crews of each locomotive remained at their posts amid bursts of steam from wrecked boilers. Send in Calls For Aid. The sound of the crash and the cries of the injured brought persons living nearly to the scene and they summoned aid from Norwoolt and Cincinnati. Police Reserves, with six automobile patrols, several hospital ambulances and Fire Companies Nos. 52 and 31 soon arrived. They found the passengers of the police patrol children in him and trying to chop their way through the wooden sides of the coach. The more seriously injured were still in the cars and the dend were buried in the debris. The fireman had been saddled to death and the brakeman lifeless body was dragged between the tender and the first coach. Many Removed To Hospital Twenty-seven persons were treated at the receiving ward of the hospital within an hour after the wreck. Four colored dead is the toll to date. John Chubb, 12 years old, 1052 Cutter street, died at the hospital of internal injuries at 3:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon, a few minutes after the body of his playmate, Richard Stovall, 11 years old, 722 Barr street, was taken to the morgue. John C. Mrden, 45 years old, 706 Richmond street, was dead when he arrived at the hospital. He was the body of Mrs. Amie Divison, 38 years old; 658 West Seventh street, was found in the first ear of the picnic train. A white woman, whose home was opposite the scene of the wreck, summited the alarm by phone, then cleared out the front rooms and provided mattresses and clothes there for a temperate hospital. Rev. B. F. Smith, pastor of the Park Street M. E. Church, who had preceived the pleible train in an automobile, received information of the wreck and hurried back to Pleasant Ridge, where he tried to comfort members of the spiked flock.

NOMINATIONS WON BY COLORED CANDIDATES M. B. CRITTENDEN CLARK For Justice of Peace LANGSTON HARRISON For Constable CHAS. H. TURPIN For Constable GHOST OF RIOTS AT TULSA PASSING Buckner, Urban League Secretary, Says There Is A New Understanding Between Races. Colored Returning. NEW YORK EVENING POST Aug. 1. More than a year has passed since that morning of June 1, 1921, when the headlines told of thousands of armed men battling in the streets of Tulsa, Okla., of thirty persons killed and hundreds wounded in property and a well-to-do Negro population in desperate light form the city with the warning not to return. How, in that year, has Tulsa handled their perplexing race problem? Has the devastated Negro quarter been rebuff? Ha the Negroes returned, or do they shun the region? These were some of the questions put to George W. Buckner, secretary of the Urban League, recently arrived in New York after an investigation of present conditions in the oil metropolis of the Southwest. Mr. Buckner was in Tulsa at the time of the riots. He returned in July of that year and again in April 1822. The information which he has gathered indicates an encouraging turn of affidavit. He finds many evidences of a new understanding between the whiter and Negroes there. At least, it is an earnest effort toward it, and one of the causes of the riots was the fact that nobody in Tulsa had ever joined an understanding trouble to create such an understanding. In a new class of Negroes is coming into the barred section. They are not the transients and hoodlums of old, but stable families who intend to make their homes there. The houses of vice patronized by whites and Negroes alike, had often conducted by white proprietors in the Négroization which is twelve years old and Buckner, believes that Tulsa's principal vice quarter was wiped out by the great fire that accompanied the riots and that the new spirit in the city will not perish it to reappear. Its destruction was not a purpose of the riot, of course, but proved to be one of the good effects of a bad cause. WALTHALL M. MOORE For State-Representative It is the aim of the National Urban League, of which Mr. Buckner was the representative in his Tulsa investigation, do act as a sort of ambassador between the Colored and white races as they dwell together in large cities. A branch of the organization which is twelve years old and has its headquarters at, 127 East Twenty-third street, will soon be established in Tulsa. Its membership is mixed. Lived on Volcano "I did not realize," said one of Tulsa's well known ministers to Mr. Buckner after the riots, "that I was hikking on a volcano. None of us did. He and many other prominent white citizens to whom the investigator took them were outback and are determined that the conditions, which produced it shall not be allowed to grow up again. Less has been accomplished practically than spiritually. The whole Negro quarter still wears a devastated look. Not one of the houses which have been built there since June, 1927, Mr. Buckner said, has been completed. The reason he gave for this is that the Negro finds it impossible to obtain capital, labor or materials except, at auxortionate rates. The expansion of the city has made property in their section very valuable, and there is competition to obtain it, since it is worth even more than the first. Mr. Buckner three days after the state paid cost outside夸姆 CONTINUE ON PAGE THIRTEEN A Square Deal For Every Man PAGES PRICE 5 CENTS ON BY IDIDATES No Tabulation Made Of The Minor Offices Before Official Count, But Clark, Moore, Harrison And Turpin Are Believed Winners. One of the interesting features of the recent primary was the fight made by Negro candidates for places on the Republican Ridges. Chief among which was that of Constable and Justices of the Peace in the Fourth District. As we go to press, the successful candidates for these offices have not been officially announced. Unlike previous elections, the police made no tabulations of resturns on minor offices, hence those who are interested in the outcome are held in suspense until the candidates made by the Election Commissioners. However, it is generally conceded that Eidtendenen E. Clark has a safe majority to assure his nomination as Justice of the Peace. Friends of Langston Harrison claim he has a safe margin to assure his nomination as Constable. Chas. H. Turpin, the present incumbent is also regarded as a winner. This information was gathered here and mostly from judges or officers of the election in the several precedes. Two Constables, One Justice. Unless all indications fall, the negroes of St. Louis will have two candidates for Constable and one for Justice of the Peace on the regular Republican ticket in November. Wakthall M. Moore was nominated for the State Legislature. He was slated by all commissioners which included Wards 4, 5, 6, 7, 16, 17, and 25. Mr. Moore is believed to be leading his associates in the race. Dr. C. M. Powell is believed to have been defeated for. Committeeman for the Sixth Ward by TonySchuler, present incumbent. Dr. Powell made a strong fight for the Central Committee. No fight for the Central Committee. No information could be had about the success of Ira Dorsey who was a candidate for contagious in the Fifth District. Mr. Dorsey was, regarded as a sure winner.

Jolibbia, of PortauPrince, Halifax, editor of Le Courrier Hattien, a leading newspaper of Haiti, was twice arrested and confined to jail during the month of June, for protesting against certain financial powers in the United States forcing a loan of $40,000,000 on the Haitian Government, according to a letter received and made public today by James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. M. Jolibbia has been one of the most outspoken of Haitian leaders in denouncing the acts of the American Occupation. In commenting on the arrest of M. Jollibb and the causes of his having been imprisoned, Ms. Johnson said: "It is obvious that the efforts now being made to force this loan of forty million dollars on the Haitian Government, which the Haitians declare, the Haitians need and do not want, is for the purpose of future justification of the uncease of the occupation of Haiti by the United States Government. When unpleasant direct demands are made on the American Government in the future to end the occupation of this republic, the obvious report will be that such a step would be impermissible until money leased by American banking houses is repaid. "The arrest and imprisonment of M. Joliblain for daring to speak out on a matter regarding which there should be the utmost freedom of speech and stress in simply anger or incideal in what is already a record of imperial depravity. In spite of the recent report for the Senate Committee, he issued by the late McCormick of Illinois which almost completely observes that the occupation of all bodies, the state of M. Joliblain is in possession of what one may accuse to the State Government of the purpose of uncease of the occupation of Haiti by the more than governmental ee ee eR AROS PREDAY AUG. « 1902 : ee f host of Riots; GA WWE G AR DE N vos ox sf, SPACIOUS DANCE FLOORS Ed Pate , Faas ee SE ee i 4 j : m For 2500."

The star has the role of Phyllis Tomier, a winome young lady whose charms excrete the arder of two suitors, one a very practical, level headed business man and the other a novelist and explorer. The evolution of the story brings in a sparkling contrast in love making, one adopting the recognized ways of the twentieth century and the other restoring to the more forceful tactics of caveman days. Forced to choose between the two, Phyllis makes an unusual decision and shows the modern girl in an entirely new vibe, albeit the exposure beats with humor and good comedy. Zane Grey's "The Last Trail" will be the Sunday feature. In the story figures a mysterious lone bandit known as "the Night Hark" who terrorizes the country side by his sudden, swift and successful raids upon towns and travelers. The discovery of his cave in the mountain where bodies of treasure are retrieved known as the boundless preliminary portion of the last climax. PAGE SEX The Argent of R. R.

NOMINEE FOR SENATOR R.R.BREWSTER "It will be of special interest to the readers of the Argus to have this paper confirm the report that R. R. Brewster of Kansas City has been chosen as the regular Republican nominee for United States Senator of this state. Well informed politicians agree that there never was a doubt, but that Brewster would win. Notwithstanding the fact that it is indeed that barred was stopped in the Newberry berry festival that money was spent by Franklin sailors by Sacks workers on election day. Despite this fact the Brewster forces were courageous and made a strong fight against many odds. Brewster won. Mob Murder General Pershing said at Marion; "Where whole communities openly sympathize with the ruthless murder of inoffensive people in the exercise of their right to earn a livelihood, and where wholesale murder goes unpunished, it is imperative that public opinion should demand that the strong arm of the law under fearless official take action." In view of thousands of lynchings General Pershing made, in these words one of the strongest pleas for the Dreer bill we have heard. Politicians and Soldiers Politics is undoubtedly a mastly, tricky game but it; is necessary that we play it: Politicians are a breed apart and opportunity seems to be their only guide to ethics, Mr. Hagging, a man who appeared mighty fine a few month ago, is playing the game. General Pershing, although as a public servant, subject to the whims of politicians, has no political axes to grind. As a professional soldier he has reached the top. As an American he can speak the truth without endangering his own welfare. If there are a few more wholesale murders of recently arrived immigrants and riff raff from the underworld Colored Americans may be off by seeing a law passed to prevent such murders. Jack Johnson In answer to a letter John Kutuf Johnson, one time heavyweight champion of the world talked with the writer. Lil Arthur is different from the redoubtable Jack we saw at Reno in 1910. The golden smile puts out from his face occasionally, but the big follow is grave. I miss my boys. I miss my boys" said Lil Arthur when dressing meaning his three valets who dressed him around the world. The words were tragic in their symbolism. Looking at this great fighting machine and into the face of the man who was for a brief while the idol of the world it seems a tragedy that he should view "his boys" as his greatest loss. If Jack is broke, however, he has an excellent way of hiding the fact He is driving a special built, high power car in a writer equipped "Took short drive. A short drive was, enough for yours truly. Seventy miles an hour on country roads seems to me to be a mighty good way to go to heaven but poor methods for staying here on earth. The average white man's attitude toward race questions would be too funny if so much tragedy didn't follow. Occasionally, something happens to bring this to our mind. Jokieht Tamine, in appearance, was an inferior being according to the Anglo-Saxon, body worshipping standard. Takamine, the scientist, was the superior of the majority of the greatest men of the world. The brotherhood of brains knows no race lines.

JUDGE REFUSES USE OF THE "TRUTH TESTER" ON SLAYER OF DR. BROWN Justice Of The District Supreme Court, At Washington, D.C. Says Machine Is Still In An Experimental Stage. WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 3—Alphose Frye, accused of the murder of Dr. Robert Brown, wealthy Washington Negro physician in November, 1920, will not be allowed to have the phygmomanometer truth tester used upon him. Dr. William Marston, professor of Psychology at American University, made tests on June 10 to determine if Frye was telling the truth when he said he did not kill Dr. Brown. The truth testing machine is a new scientific machine for testing the physical evidence of emotional changes which are interpreted by a trained psychologist. Justice McCoy of the District Supreme Court refused to admit use of the machine because of the fact that it is still in the experimental stage. First Colored Man Commissioned In R. O. T. C.

CHURCHES TAKING UP INTER-RACIAL PROBLEMS Will Study Course Prepared-For Thousands Of Groups, All-Protestant Denominations Will Participate. NASHVILLE, Tenn., July 31—(special)—What may consider the most hopeful development in the realm of race relations in America, with protestant denominations, with a membership of nearly thirty millions, are uniting in the study of the problem with the view of finding a Christian solution. The Federal Council of Churches has appointed a Commission of the Church and. Inter-Racial Relief which is actively at work to promote the inclusion of all church members in the offer to bring about better conditions. In addition, the question will be studied this year in many thousands of missionary groups and study classes. To this end the Missionary Education Movement, the Council of Women for Home Missions and Central Committee for Mission Study have uplifted in issuing a series of graded tests to assess the number of others recommended for supplementary work. Most of the missionary organizations, have provided also for the creation in each local society of a committee to give especial attention to this matter. It is significant that nearly all the text books were prepared by Southerners and the executive officers of the Federal Council Commission all South Americans who are leading in the effort to find a thoroughly Christian basis for the future relations of the races. the plans of conference and cooperation now being worked out in the South as a means of solving interracial problems is destined to lead the world in this field was the statement of Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, noted sociologist, before the annual meeting of the Commission on Inter-Racial Cooperation, in session here last week. Dr. Jones, recently returned from a trip to England and a tour of the United States that the interest was everywhere impressed in the Smuts of South Africa, on learning about it immediately took steps to apply the method to the acute race problem faced by the British in South Africa. The meeting of the Commission was attended by more than fifty outstanding Southern leaders, men and women, and was presided over by John I. Eagan of Atlanta, prominent manufacturer, Dr. Will W. Alexander, Director of the Commission, pointed out in the opening address that it has no program of race relationships to put over on any section or community, but that it only suggest a simple effective plan by which the best people of each State or community may solve their own problems by the method of frank conference and cooperation. Reports of state secretaries indicated that effective work is being done in every state in the South except one and in hundreds of communities, resulting in better understanding between the races more proper schools and safety conditions generally. Wongen leaders of various great denominational and club groups reported that a vast deal of work is being done through these agencies toward securing better educational, religious and home conditions for Negroes.

Associated Negro Press KANSAS CITY, MO. Aug. 2—Jos Rector, the father of Miss Sarah Rector, wealthy colored girl residing here, and owning all schools in Oklahoma, who died near Dallas, Texas, was taken ill on the train, and removed to the Baptist Hospital in Dallas. There he recovered sufficiently to give directions and then passed away. Mr. Rector died from an attack which came as the result of the nervous disorder with which he has long been afflicted. The funeral book place in Oklahoma. Wednesday with all the family present. The mother and five children went from here Wednesday. The very fantastic story concerning the death and its cruse is scored by "we who know." The trip which Mr. Rector was on, had been through the western part of this country. Lower California, the City of Merrick, and he had come as far north as Dulling on his near house, with all conditions, malt factory. He has been a bondman for Manuel, whose spectacular release from the Missouri penitentiary was one of the big events of the recent weeks, but he was not heart-broken over anything as alleged. Something to Think About By F. A. WALKER VACANT HOUSES IN THEIR grave solitude and desolation, vacant houses are pathetic reminders of empty minds, neglected and forgotten by those able to take best care of them. On old country roads you may often see such habitations, seemingly eager to proffer a smile of welcome, but quite unable to do it. And these vacant houses started gayly in life; warm in friendship and love, full of hope and aspiration, dreaming of enduring usefulness and happiness. As the years rolled by they dreamed less and finally sank into a hopeless state of despondency. You may like vacant houses, or not, but there they are, telling in a language of their own of the days that are departed and the joys that are done. And what happens to vacant houses happens in a far more lamentable way to empty minds, whose owners habitually neglect them, and pay for their disregard the sharpest penalties, at a time when their own reward should be munificent. If you are wilfully neglecting your mind, allowing the weeds to grow about the doorway, you will find some day that you are living in solitude in a dreary dwelling, from which your friends of old turn away in sadness. You were so self-reliant in your youth that you did not care to enlarge and beautify your thoughts. Gradually you neglected this important duty until the weeds grew and crowded out the flowers. Too proud to stand up straight and stretch out your arms to embrace knowledge, you sat down in illness or "shirked your opportunity. Being now your own witness and your own judge, there is alas! no possible escape from publication. The world has moved on and left you behind in a wilderness of mold and darkness, where you have time to reflect and repent. But, be it known, whatever your age, you may yet improve your vacant house and make of it a thing of beauty. Women, as a rule, can do this more gently than men, yet at forty and fifty have been known to form studious habits and flood their old vacant houses with light until its brilliance illuminated up the whole world! 1852. by McClure Newspaper Syndicate. THE ROMANCE OF WORDS BACK in the days when the original 'Teutonic' 'race roamed the forests of northwestern Europe—centuries before it migrated' north, west and south to split up into the Scandinavians, the Anglo-Saxons and the modern Germanic races—these tribes' had a word which they pronounced, as though it were spelled klar-eeeth, though they spoke it more rapidly and almost as a single syllable. If we lengthen the vowel sound just a trifle, making it "aw," we will have the word "cloth" used by millions of people today with reference to their garments and the materials used for many other purposes. Those who are expert in the study of languages and the changes which occur in the transition of centuries have not been able to trace this word any farther than, the forests of northeastern Europe. But they incline to the belief that it was derived from a still more ancient word root of the ancient Teutonic language -klit, means to stick or cling. "Cloth," therefore, literally means something, which sticks or clings, either together or to the wearer and probably made its way into the language in contradistinction to the clothing of blades which are hard and far from clinging.

Dugalm" Illinois and Chicago came forward in their usual record making and record breaker—in order in having the first Colored American with the military rank of General Military politics and American prejudice kept late Colonel Charles Young from being advanced to the rank of Brig. General and was instrumental in sending him to an untimely death. The great state of Illinois, the home of Abraham Lincoln, sets the pace for political, economic and social justice. Typical American justice in military, General Denison, a native of Texas, is honored and heroic Colonel of the famous Eighth Illinois regiment during the World War. In private life a member of the Illinois bar, affords an object lesson in success for all young people. General Denison one of the three first members of the Negro race ever to command a regiment of soldiers in the United States. He was a member of the Illinois National Guard, at his own request, with the rank of brigadier-general. He was retired, by an order signed by Adj. Gen. G. E. Black. Ml. Gen. George Bell, Jr., commander of the Sixth Corps, Area, commended Gen. Denison for his work with the National Guard colored troops. Gen. Denison is now practicing 'aw and is an assistant of the staff of Attorney General Brindage. The record of Gen. Denison's military activities follows: First, appointed major 8th Illinois Infantry, June 28, 1898. Served with the regiment in Cuba, at San Juan, near Santiago, acting as a high official at times in the Juarez Advocate's department. Mustered out April 3, 1890. Appointed major, chief quartermaster's department, fourth brigade I. N. G. July 25, 1903 to June 17, 1907. Served as major until appointed colonel on January 12, 1914, until November 20, 1914. Mustered into the federal service on June 27, 1916, at Springfield, Ill. Commanded the regiment on the Mexican border at Fort Sam Houston, San Antonio, Texas from July 7 to October 7, 1916. Mustered out of the federal service Oct. 27, 1916, and re-entered the Illinois National Guard with his regiment on the same date. Answered the call of the President of the United States and reported at the armory on what is now Giles avenue and 35th Streets on July 25, 1917. Inscribed into the federal services August 3, 1917 Automatically drafted in service to the United States on March 12, 1919. His service in France includes his command of his regiment from April 23, 1917 to July 12, 1917, at which time he and his men were under fire at Grandvillars, near the Swiss border where he was commanded by Gen. LeBouq of the 73d French division, to which the old 5th was attached, for successfully warding off attacks by hostile aviators who visited the town daily. From Grandvillars, Denison carried his men, mingled with the 52th French Infantry, into the first line trenches at St. Michel. It was due to Denison's disposing of his men, who were there from June 23 to July 3 without losing a man, either killed, captured or mutilated, notwithstanding the fact that the regiment was under heavy fire of machine guns as well as shell fire some days al, day without a let up. The French officers were so well pleased with the work of Denison that they changed the name of one of the sectors to Denicourt in honor of the colonel of the old 5th. From St. Mhiel he carried the regiment to the Argentine Forest, where he was received of command following a severe illness at Mhiel and was ordered to charmmount for rest and was 'after invalid hope'. Dixon's retirement comes upon his request. Many friends regret his leaving the service of the state in this particular branch, but he has given his best and we will say, "Well done." NEWSPAPER MAN FOR THE GRAND EXALTED RULER Friends of J. Finly Wilson, Editor Of Washington Eagle, Say He Is The Loreal Man WASHINGTON, D. C. (Special) Friends and supporters of J. Flutter Wilson, president of the National Negro Press Association are, putting him forward as their candidate for the Grand Exalted Ruler of the Eles They propose so it is said here, to elect him by an overwhelming majority at the coming Supreme Lodge of the NAACP. It is claimed that Finley Wilson has made more lodges than any member of the long-horned crew that he has served as deputy in every administration since the days of B. F. Howard, who was the first Grand Exalted Ruler of the organization. Promises of support have come, from as far east as Norfolk, from as far south as New Orleans, and from as far north as Montreal Canada. Of these messages he "Hello" Bill Our Bot is Finley. Then too, one of the strong points favorable development and recent announcements of this campaign comes from the southern colony here in the nation's capital, augmented by the solid support that comes from the west and east, and while 'Finkley as he is favorably known here, was born in sunny Tennessee, he was reared almost exclusively in the west having, finished his practical experience and having followed Horan Grélez's advice at an early age he seems to have been promoted and to obtain right on racial development, said of Pinkley Wilson, that he has no particular scruples that he can boast of having made a success of everything he has undertaken. Although beginning as a farmer's boy in Tennessee, he is the son of a soldier preacher, he has served as stake driver, coal miner, each boy, bell boy, during car waiter, pulman porter and is now one of the leading men in newspaper, business of the United States. He has been in the life newspaper work for twenty years. The claim here is that Pinkley Wilson will be the best United Rural Res Rien once see PRON Seana Se ce Ana os ali ek om ~~ Do You Want The Negro Trade? See That Yo ; ee Do You Want The Negro Trade?

Although many were made happy and several joined the church, the Rev. went himself on better Sunday night. He delivered a message that far surpassed the morning sermon. And the happy night and audience stamped it with their seal of approval. The Sunday School classes began the day by making good reports for the district conference. The New Pro- gressive class led with $29; Morning Star came next with $29; the Young Ladies Almighty class $11; Senior class $29; Young Men's Bible class $12.50. After all, other classes reported the total amount was $127. The young Ladies Almighty class taught by Mrs. Elia Howell, merited the trip to the district conference, given to one of their group by the Sunday School, Rev. N. L. Smith and the following delegates are sojourning in New Madrid, where the District Convention is in session this week. H. H. Harper; Elmer E. Pheila; Erma Bryson; L. B. Reed; Miss Katie Smith; Miss Cecilia Oliver; Mrs. C. H. Robinson. It is to be hoped that they have a pleasant stay in the far off Missouri town. The Carter club served a remarkable dinner last Sunday with Meslesam Walter Koger; and H. J. Boyce at the head of affairs. We love Mrs. Koger because she appears in those of those invincible smiles. Miss Willett person, will make her bow as Beauty Queen of Lane Tabernacle, Monday night. No one should stay at home and miss this beautiful scene, the crown is already to be placed on the head of the beautiful preexcellent Queen. MT.

JAMES WELDON JOHNSON BOOMED FOR CONGRESS JAMES WELDON JOHNSON BOOMED FOR CONGRESS Associated Negro Press: NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—The Nation- York or Chicago be the first northern center to return a colored American to Congress? Chicago will not this year. The nominations have been made, and in the First District, where the votes are almost four to one colored, Martin B. Madden, chairman of the Appropriations Committee, has been retained. In New York the situation is differ- ent. The nominations are yet to be made, and strong efforts are being made to fines Woldon Johnson to oppose Congressman Anurgeo, who comes from practically a Colored disti- tict. The Philadelphia Public Ledger SATR: "The Negro vote in the greater city is about 50,000 among 1,250,000 voters. But of, the 50,000 colored votes fully 35,000 are located in the Twenty-first congressional district where the blacks are clamoring for a candidate of their own; a favorite being James. Waddon Johnson, a conspicuously ably negro. The incumbent, artin C. Ansange, a white man, this autumn, is finding the colored portion of his district in open revolt against the Republican Party. The total vote of the Congressional district is 50,000. The highlands of Upper Manhattan are occupied by the whites, but the valleys to the eastward hold a black city of 150,000; colored people living in fine apartments with steam heat and baths. There was a. time when Charles W. Anderson, a Negro, formerly United States internal revenue collector, could go among his race and turn their minds any way in the interest of Republican candidates. But not so nowadays, for a new generation of colored people have taken up the problem of their race." Ohio's 1st Life Insurance Company Closes Good Year Associated Negro Press. COLUMBUS, OHIO, Aug. 2.—The Supreme Life and Casualty Company the first company of its kind to be organized in the State of Ohio, has just closed its first branch in the state. The meeting was well attended and complet harmony prevailed. Stockholders from all parts of the United States were present, and much enthusiasm was manifested at the various public meetings. This company, which is only a year old, has done such a great amount of business that it may be ranked with many of the older companies. Over $1,200,000 worth of insurance has been obtained in spite of the fact that only small polices, for the most part, were issued. The first meeting of the Board of Directors was held on Wednesday, July 12, followed by a public meeting at the Chamber of Commerce at which addresses were delivered by Harry H. Pace, President of the Pace Photograph Corporation, B. M. Roddy, Cashier of the Solvent, Savage Bank, Memphis; Dr. W. A. Method, Medical Director for the company, Columbus, and B. W.

After becoming settled in the towns surrounding Jerusalem the people were called together for the purpose of reestablishing the worship of the Lord God. The leaders in this movement were Jeshul the priest and Zerubbabel the governor. In view of the fact that the clearing away of the debris of the old city and temple and the erection of the new temple would take a long time, an altar was erected where sacrifice might be offered at once unto God. I. The Foundation of the Temple Laid (3:S-13). This was an auspicious occasion and was celebrated with most impressive ceremonies. It married an epoch in the history of the nation. It brought most vividly to them their bitter experiences in the dark past, and yet pointed them forward to the time of blessing when God's favor would be upon them again. 1. The priests in their apparel (v. 10). In Exodus 39 the priestly garments are described. These garments symbolized their consecration to the Lord's service. 2. The priests with trumpets (v. 10). These trumpets were of silver and were used in calling the people together. 3. The Levites with cymbals (v. 10). These were to furnish the instrumental music of the sanctuary. This was according to the arrangement made by David (1 Chron. 15:10-21). 4. They sang together by course (v. 11). This means that they sang to one another responsively. The one company sang, "The Lord is Good"; the other responded, "For His mercy endureth, forever." 5. Mingled weeping and shouting (vv. 12:13). Some of the older men who had seen the magnificent and glorious temple of Solomon, which had been destroyed, wept much when they saw how far short the present foundation came of the former temple. Others were glad of the favor of God which had brought them back and that a beginning had been made in the new house of worship. 11. The Building of the Temple Hindered (Ch. 4). The three perils which put back the building of the temple for some fourteen years reveal the persistent methods which the enemy uses to hinder the constructive building programs of God's people in every age. 1. Au unintelligent pessimism (3:12). It was no credit to "priests, deviles and chief of the fathers" to mar this glorious occasion with weeping. Under the circumstances this was a glorious beginning and gave promise of great things for the future. God's promised cleavet to the future when even greater glories should be to the chosen people than ever had been enjoyed in the days of Solomon. Many today, because things are not quite what they should be, do not go forward with a constructive program, and even hinder those who have the hopeful outlook. 2. Worldly compromise (4:2,3). "Let us build with you, for we seek your God." This is Satan's most common and effective method today. May the courageous Zerubbabel declare anew, "We have nothing to do with us to build an house into our God." b. Open opposition by the world (4:4-24). When refused a part in the work, open and Violent opposition was resorted to. Intimidation and political screening were used to defeat the building plan of God's people. III. The Temple Finished (5:1-6:15). Through the ministry of the prophets, Haggai and Zechariah, the people were encouraged to resume the work of building the temple. They wrought with energy and enthusiasm. How necessary are God's prophets to encourage and urge on the workers in the Lord's vineyard! IV. The Temple Dedicated (6:16-22). The people were united in this building and came together upon its completion and solemnly dedicated it to God. It was a joyous occasion and they united in the observance of the passover with gratitude to God that He had strengthened their hands in their work. The Doer of the Work. But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.—James 1:25.

A fifteen year old boy was accused of raping and murdering an eleven year old girl in New Jersey. Perhaps, neither of those boys was guilty of anything. At least neither of them has ever been proven guilty of anything. But it can be seen at a glance which boy was accused of the greater crime. The difference in treatment accorded these two boys is the difference in the civilization and human culture of the people by whom they were treated. The little Georgia boy, charged with sex attack upon a grown woman, was acquitted. The little Jersey boy, charged with sex attacks and murder of a little child, was acquitted by a court of justice. Both boys maintained their complete innocence. The little Georgia boy, however, was chained to a log and told that if he did not confess he, would be burned alive! Of course, the thing to do, under that condition, would be to confess. But the boy had better sense. He knew to moh was lying and that they meant to burn him by all means and simply wanted a "confession" to justify the resagery as much as possible. He refused, to "confess". They burned him until his shin, bones were bursting out of the cooked flesh. In great torture the child of fifteen then took at their word and "confessed" in an effort to stop this hellish pain—as a child of fifty might have done. But after he said what they wanted him to say, they then roasted him more slowly and had a french good time cooking the life out of this incest. In New Jersey the other boy was given his day in court, was thoroughly "grilled," and was not proven guilty, and was therefore presumed to be innocent and was released. What matters it that one of these boys was black and the other white. And you know which was which. And yet the present governor of Georgia, got "insulted" because some one accused his stats of being especially criminal. SLAVES OF LANGUAGE (For The Associated Negro Press) Sometimes we white Amarricanes see a black man who envies us. To me at least, such envy is always surprising, pliffet, and somewhat absurd. We are not happy enough to be envious. Still we ought to be happy, happier at least than our ancestors. We belong to the race of two-legged vermilion called Human. Belongs who ages ago proved themselves better killers than the other verlin on this midball of a planet. Long ago we learned not to fight every comet, but to get together and slaughter the weaker animals. We have learned to do all sorts of ingenious things—to cover our bodies with the soft fur of the four-footers and fill our belts with their flesh; to fly; to build houses and warm them; to compose sounds by methods approved by codes of——Business: to divide our women so that we may each have one without violence; to make one another's acquaintance by systems of mouth-noises, send tidings on pieces of paper; to adorn ourselves; to learn of our surroundings; even to create a God in our own image, that we may worship ourselves with an appearance of humility. We have machinery-powerful beyond our fathers' dreams, for the rapid making of countless treasures. Yes, we ought to live like gods; particularly in America, with a world of untouched riches. But how DO we live? All day we work in stores and factories, using our great machines to produce more great machines that our children may make more machines. We work in dust and smoke, and return to unify homes to eat and sleep. Evenings we rush to the nearest cheap amusement, or if we have money, to something better which we have never taken time to understand and appreciate. Art, Enjoyment, Laughter. We have no time for these things. They are Privileots. Business Before Please. Americans are hustlers. We have money than any other Nation. The rubber hands we make would stretch around Jupiter. We are jealous to Live Longer—and to Make More rubber bands and bottle stoppers. We are advancing in Civilization. This is Progress. We Must Do Our Duty. Don't ask silly questions; if we stop to find out what we're doing well never get it done. What is the meaning of all this—this rushing, rushing to the grave Preparation for another world? Queen preparation. Work for the next generation? We are teaching the next generation the same thing. It is simply the worship of words we have never tried to understand. Every new invention brings new power, and Man plays with his new power to show how well he can use it. Vanity makes him want new playthings, more wealth; afraid somebody else will have more than he has; he has time increasing his possession instead of enjoying them; and knowing his emptiness, sensing a little the absurdity of his life; sensing his someone with big name, which he will defend to the end, himself to a word, yourself vanity keeps him even from questioning that word. If he can make his black clothes faster than anybody else, he will take up all his time with the making of buckles, and sell black clothing (Civilization, or Duty, or Programming or the White Man Burden, and save that nothing else is equal to it. And he can himself what he thinks he would like to be, and little anything may be hears, life will light up, never will darkness and love never will darkness. But he isn't a hypocrite. He is mercy that most vain and selah of all beings, an idealist. Falling to live up to his own ideals, too vain to admit failure, he preends he has succeeded, and will fight the world to spread the names of those ideals, no matter what horrors he may spread with them. He is a slave who rather than see another pass him, will enslave the world. And he believes in the madness that he preaches. INTERESTS OF COAL AND THE INTERESTS OF HUMANS. By William Pickens (For The Associated Negro Press) Now we have it! Did you see President Harding's telegram to 28 governors in the interest of coal mining! The President and the government can protect COAL, which is gipped to exist for the sake of humans, and yet they pretend to lack authority to protect the humans themselves. Perhaps, all the Agroes from Mississippi had better go into the coal mining business and get protection as being necessary to the production of coal. The President and the government have given power to protect the lives of citizens If They Want To Do It. That is all. Let us take some of the President's words in behalf of coal and see how they could be applied in behalf of life, mutant's mutandis! "Your State Government and the Federal Government are jointly responsible for, maintained, conditions which free men are willing to work, may work in safety. We are responsible for the production and the transportation of a fuel supply ample for the necessities of the American people and the public utilities which serve them, particularly, the railways engaged in interstate commerce. We must have ample coal to maintain industrial activity. We must have the coal necessary to the health, security and the activity of all the people. "No cause is so important as that of common welfare, and there must be the suppression of every unlawful hindrance to the service of that cause." Now let us apply these same words in behalf of humans, who are supposed not to be burned, rather than in behalf of coal, which is supposed to be burned to keep humans warm: "Your State, Government and the Federal Government are jointly responsible for maintained conditions under which freed men, willing to be dealt with according to law, shall be dealt with according to law. We are responsible for the preservation of the lives of the American people, which interest is above all other interests, even interstate commerce. We must have a free, safe and happy people, to maintain not only industry, activity, but all other vital activities and security. We must have the civilized procedure necessary to the health, security, and activity of all the people. "No cause (not even states rights) is so important as that of common welfare, and there must be the suppression of every unlawful hindrance to the service of that cause." Notice that we inject a parenthesis, but otherwise do not change this fast sentence at all, and it needs no change. It comes in pat for the suppression of ynothing and the protection of human life. If only the great President of the United States dared to give as much consideration to Black Men as to Black Antibiotic. The anti-lynching bill has been reported out favorably by the- Senate Committee on the Judiciary, with the course of the Democracy and Borah. Now it is up to you and your two senators. There should not now be a Negro in any state, with the possible exception of Southern states, who will not write his senators about this matter,—and Negroes of the South should also write. Just as many Negro voters, men and women, as there are in these United States—just twice, that many letters should be written to the senators. Each voter should a letter at least two each voter should write a letter at least two senators. Write as many letters as you have hands, or send telegrams. Then count your fingers and write other people's senators and other influential members of the national government. Get your Governor, your Mayor, your Big Citizen to write. Pay no attention to the assertion from white or black, that the Senate is merely playing politics and that they expect the Supreme Court to destroy the Constitution as part of the strategy of the enemy to destroy hope and pep in you. They said a similar thing when the bill was about to be voted on in the lower house—that the house was about to pass it merely for political reasons and that Dyer and other members of the house expected and hoped that it would be killed in senate committee. Nay, worse still—when yet was introducing a bill years ago, they then said that he was expected to be elected, but he never expected the house to seriously consider the proposition—that he was merely pleasing his Nero voters. What will they say, and if it passes the Senate and if the Supreme Court sustains it? Why, then, they will say they are not expected to uphold it. What we want now is this LAW We will cross the Supreme Court bridge and each separate little jury bridge. when we get to it. The next point of attack for the group is on the entire senate, and your first move is upon your senators. "WOMANS HALL OF FAME" By William Furman South American women asked North American women to present pieces with the names of American women in the Collegiate States. The white women have accordingly preached to collect ballots from all over the country in a collective effort to arrest at these twelve names. It happens to be that they are gathering only the names of white people through balloting of white people. This logical The names should be gathered through the balloting of all the people of white people in the United States. colored women whose names should be passed along in this group of twelve women. There are colored women whom we might easily name who should be counted in any list of the useful and eminent that number as many as twelve. Let the colored members of the National Organization of Colored Women proceed to find out from the National Women's Board, just how this balloting is proceeding and how we may give the right answer to South America by including the women of the colored population. There is always a tendency in the United States to count the colored population as non-existent, whenever any honorable mention is to be made. THE RAG MAN'S DOLL By Dumas the Third Associated Negro Press Arthur Porter, an old dearest angrie living in a house of his own, and having only one child, a boy eight years of age, went about the various streets of his town in an old wagon. There was a bell attached to his horse's neck; the bell rang out its cry, a cry that vibrated "Arthur, the rag man." The streets through thru which he drove were not many, for it was a small town. Everybody knew Arthur, both rich and poor, young and old. Arthur Porter was a very good man, and his wife, who died when her first and last child was born, was a very good woman; their boy, Charles Porter and good family surroundings developing him into an upright lad—one who was controlled by the environment. Charles was known as Porter, the Younger, just as we have the historical Dumas the Younger. He was distinguished from his father with this title, and he was "a celebrated personage" of this time so far as an appellation was concerned. Now, that we have become introduced to Porter the Younger, we will now enter into the most interesting part of his life, a time of his youth that we can not forget, for it is something unusual extraordinary, which is about love, a love affair that very seldom appears in history similar to this. Porter the Younger went about the little town every day with his father for rags. In the heart of the town, where an aristocratic family resided Charles went into the back yard of this residence for a sack of rags. In doing so, he met a beautiful girl his own age, a little girl his princess. From the first, she saw her he loved her, and caused him to frequent her neighborhood in order to look at her whenever she played out doors. On the other hand Charles was handsome little fellow. Though very poor, he and the little girl formed an he acquaintance, an acquaintance that lasted for years. During the long time he had known her, conditions of society kept them apart. Nevertheless he had something in his possession that once belonged to her, a token of remembrance until his death; this which he had was an old doll that was thrown among the rags, adult that he kissed carved and made love, an object he called his own, his all.

Woodson, authority on BEAUTY TALKS Associated Negro Press You'll think anybody would try to protect and aid those features which mean a great deal to one's good health wouldn't you? But does one of the Dutch women abuse women today? Today I saw a woman with glasses on, and to make things worse both literally and figuratively, she had on a vell with thicky dotted machee. An oculist is quoted as saying that every dirt in a woman's veliment a square tire for some on his professional brothers' cars, and it is nearly the truth, so far as financial cost goes. But we will wear our veliment, because the cues of women, why not be like the chakmedeen women who covers all but her eyes, and who send tourists back to America raving about those "Turkish eyes." Another thing, why if your eyes are "bum" don't you get an expert to look them over and prescribe lens suitable to correct the defect? Who started that business of going to a department store pickling out a "becoming" pair of spectacles, paying $224.00 out of it in a frown. There are creamy knees and wrinkled fore heads due to no glasses or improper fitting than one could dream of. That song about "clear the darkened windows open wide the door" is excellent inspiration in some things, but don't use to much force in opening "the windows of your soul" each morning or whenever you awaken be morning or evening. It looks quite cunning and babish in the movies to awaken, stretch out one's arms, slowly and then sit straight up and r叭 one's eyes with both fists for several minutes. Pressure on the eye bells cause short-sightedness in the eye and neck. It's less picturequeasy if indefinitely more comforting to honet bed and dash one's eyes with moderately cold water. "Beauty naps" rest the eyes as well as help the rest of the body, and perpetual motion is all right in scientific treatise; but is hard on the eyes. Thank heavens the day of the langu-gill lily has gone forever. There was a day (before they knew what appen-dicis meant) when the listless clinging vine sort of woman made a great hit with men, both in books and out. And right now don't say "What does this lady mean by referring to men so often for? Isn't she talking to women?" Yes, ma-am, but if there were no men to appease and please we should worry about beauty! Am I right? Then let me hear you sanction that? As was saying, men did not attack at their (?) feet, and call out their chirality (?), weeping copious tears on their stiffly starched bosoms. Tear-stained eyes went like "more than 3%". But them days is gone forever. A red-eyed woman is popular only only an oculist. Men will leave you to your tears, and solitude is no stage for a display of woe. Don't forget that lashes and brows are necessary for beautiful eyes you don't clip or cut "twettie" unless you know that it is vital to further beautify. And do not extract a single hair by yourself. Go to a Nile Queen varder and let one of those skilled operators do whatever is to be done. Avoid blue and black pencils and "mustache" sticks in your lashes and brown, or the few hairs you have will disappear. Z Now that, "The Shekl" has made bronze beauties more to be sought after than riches let's renew our pledge to be Nile Queen beauties that will make the male population hate to die her fear there will not be anybody so good to look at in the next world. And that's not sacrifice, that's the truth! So help me, Clet! Greetings. Oh seekers of beauty! This July sun heats warmly down our faces, threatening to kiss us too long and lingeringly for the good of our complexion. Remember that a sunburned woman is beautiful only in the best sellers, and altho society writers from abroad inform us that since the advent of "The Shekl" it is quite the thing to be "brown and bold." They, add that one obtain the brown effect by henna and not by sunshine. How is your complexion these days of beach parties, moonlight promesades, auto trips, etc? Is it natural or is it a smear? A good complexion is above all things to be desired. Roosean said, "No woman can be ugly who has good teeth." and we add from long observation and experience, she isn't hard on the eyes when she has that clear unblotched skin, and firm, soft flesh that we're all stringing to achieve. And right now, let me say that while good creams cannot be surpassed, yet we never heard that they could do a physician's work. If you are rumming your complexion as a result of your hair, you are wearing a night light while you are attempting to get the pimples and blackheads out with creams and lotions. No wise person will try to extort overwork from anything or anybody, and the best face lotion made can't penetrate to your stomach and start the congested glands to functioning properly. Don't be one of those people who say, "I never wash my face." Water is a wonderful aid to a clear complexion, applied and taken, in large quantities. A mild soap does not injure the skin (particularly when the skin is rinsed well and followed with a good cream. Do not use cheap, scented soap as it is worse than not washing at all. Do not use antiringent toilet waters, as they dry and streak the skin. If you are obliged to wash your face, wash it gently and wash the face before making facial application. Do not massage the face unpleasantly, but always see a skilled operator to do that, and don't expect her to rub firmer into cheeks left fahby or abcess teeth or recording gums. Don't expect her to rub out a fahny which comes from poor eyesight, or a line that comes from frequent display of temper. Don't stay out all night (staydy! I'm not instructed) and wear a hair to remove all traces of ingrown hair, red lice. After all ointments and ointments have to earn their living and earn avaricious beauty expenses give a heart.
