FOUR DEAD NINE HURT IN CAVE IN Brave Negro Talks To Firemen As They Dig Him Out Of Ruins. Hundred Watch Rescuers. Kansas City, Mo., August 6—(Special)—Two Negroes, William Banks of 1508 Cottage avenue, and William Simpson, 38, of 420 Greeley avenue, Kansas City, Kans., and two whites were killed and, another Negro and three whites are missing following the collapse of a three-story building at 1100 the way the police police modeled for an Italian cabaret. Nine other persons, among them four Negroes, received injuries. The catastrophe occurred into Tuesday afternoon. Police and firemen continued to dig in the debris of the wrecked building all night in hopes of recovering the bodies of some of the missing persons, while hundreds of spectators filled the streets. Had Narrow Escape Albert Rummos, colored, of 1306 Highland street, who was working in the building at the time it collapsed, was saved only by an anging beam which acted as a guard against the pile of bricks from the old building. He was extricated and went home uninjured. Rummos in explaining the accident, declared: "The old brick wasn't enough to hold up the entire weight of the two floors. The supports in the building were taken out and long iron beams placed across to carry the weight, and the old walls bulged." "I told the foreman, John Disalvo, the walls wouldn't hold; all of the men said that." Only a brief warning was given before the building was a mass of wreckage, according to Rummos. Talks With Rescuers John Hill, another colored workman, who was planned under debris, showed "iron" nerve by keeping up a conversation with his rescuers as they dug in a mass of plaster, timber, and beams to free him, although he was painfully injured, and physicians worked with him while he was being freed. "I'm all right boys, but I can't move my legs." Hill told his rescued, "Move this plan here, it's crushing my back. Fine, that's much better. Wait now I'll help you. Take this piece off my leg. I don't know where my legs are, I can't feel them." Hill used his free hand to help remove the pile of bricks and mortar which surrounded him. His efforts tired him quickly. He said he felt refreshed after drinking a glass of water which was passed down to him. Go easy now, knows, when you're taken apart. You know I don't know how or where, my legs are." Spectators commented on "Bulls courage and fortitude, as he was in terrible pain, both legs being crushed in a pile of debris. When the cave-in occurred, Hill ran to the side of the building, and a heavy steel I-beam served as a protection overhead and probably a saved his life. Mrs. \ Simpson appeared on the catastrophe about six hours after it occurred and reported that she had heard nothing from her husband. Her husband's body had not been recovered. List of the Injured The colored persons, who suffered injuries in the tragedy were: - Fields, Negro, 40 years old, 1906 East Seventeenth street; lacerations of the scalp and bruised left arm.

DEPUTY SLAYS COLORED BASE BALL MANAGER Eye Witness' Story Show It Was A Case Of "Cold Blooded?" Murder. Daily Papers' Story Misleading A Fight Will Be Made To Bring Exonerated Man To A Fair Trial. Aid Offered By Whites. The reports of several eye witnesses of the slaying of Fred Gore, educated baseball manager, by Deputy Constable Clarence P. Bennett on St Charles Rock road, last Saturday night, have given plain evidence of a case of cold-blooded murder, although Bennett was exonerated last Monday, and local white dailies failed to present facts to show that he was in the wrong. Both colored and white citizens of St. Charles (several of whom witnessed the murder) have been stirred by the brutal outrage and the freezing of its perpetrator, and have launched a bitter fight to cause the slayer to stand trial. Skull Was Crushed Witnesses of the tragedy have declared that Gore was shot after his skull had been crushed with a black jack and he was down, while a third unidentified white, of whom no mention has been made in newspaper reports, covered Gore's two companions, Tharold Gandin, a student of Franklin High School, and French Henry, one of his ball players, with a pistol. Gorce was shot returning from St. Charles to Eldinburgh, Ill., to get several of his ball players who were held there when their car broke down on the way from Chicago. His brother-in-law, Prof Milton A. M., principal of the Franklin High school, had made arrangements for his team, the Chicago Independent Giants, to play at the Relief Association picnic at Banchette Park. According to Gorce's account of the Boston, his Boston, and Gorce had been driving in the heavy traffic along St. Charles Rock road in the latter's new sport model Buick, when they stopped at the St. Charles car line crossing just east of the St. Charles bridge. They started again and had gone just about 50 yards when they were halted by Bennett, who seemed intoxicated and two other whites, Schuchman, and the unidentified. The men were ordered out of the car and searched, the car was searched. Nothing was found. The colored men then questioned the deputy constable what he wanted, whereupon Bennett announced that they were pinched for blood with Officer Goree then spoke up and declared that it was impossible for his car to attain a speed of more than 25 miles an hour in the short distance that he had gone since stopping. This evidence was responded to by "Tell it to the judge." An earnest plea was then put up by Goree for justice in the matter, but the officer paid no heed, and Goree was about to submit when Bennett told him that he was going to lock him up at Clyde to get him out. Goree thought he would Goree's thoughts seemed to go to Eiffingham then, and he renewed his plea, asking to be allowed to make some arrangements to get his men. It was at this point that the deputy constable became infuriated, Gauldin declared, seemingly by the hesitation of Goree. He shoved Goree with his left hand, calling him a digger and went for his gun with his right hand, apparently to shoot. Became Incensed As he whipped out the Gun, Goree grabbed the barrel. A struggle ensued in which the men rolled down a six foot bank, and a shot was fired from the revolver. Bennett called for Schuchman to come to his aid, whereupon the youth came and beat Goree over the head with a black jack for WHITE MAN, WHO SHOT COLORED GIRL 6 YEARS AGO, MUST FACE TRIAL Prentice News Service FAYETTEVILLE, N. C., Aug. 5. Melvin Maynor will be tried here some time this month for a murder committed six years ago.

The sheriff went to Durham county for the man, and today Maynor is in the Cumberland jail awaiting trial at the August term of the Superior Court. When taken into custody Maynor claimed that the death of the girl was due to an accidental discharge of a shurgun.

It has been claimed by prosecutors of Maynor that he deliberately killed the girl. COURT ORDER DISAPPOINTS S.C. SHERIFF Attorney Tucker's Habeas Corpus Writ Is Sustained. Saves Man From Being Returned Where He Would Be In Danger Of Lynching. Judge Mix Rebukes Sheriff Who Attemps To Seize, The Freed Man It was a great day in court in St. Louis last Friday, when Nat Winston walked out of Court, Room No. 10, a free man, after having been incarcerated several weeks charged with murder, alleged to have been committed more than 20 years ago. The case had attracted unusual attention and had been given much publicity through the daily press, because Winston had been identified by C. H. Hethington (white), as the slayer of his brother at Meggett, South Carolina, in 1904. After Hethington had had Winston arrested, he immediately notified the sheriff at Meggett, that he had found his brother's slayer, and come at once and take the fugitive back. The sheriff was instructed to bring requisition papers for "Samuel Brown," the right name of the man under arrest. The sheriff came, Gov. Baker honored the requisition papers, and everything was set for taking the "prisoner" back to South Carolina. He was arrested by Harvey. V. Tucker, a young lawyer with offices at 2220 Market street, was employed to defend Winston and it possible keep him from returning to South Carolina, for his friends feared that he would be lynched, should he be returned, regardless of his innocence. Winston had maintained that he was innocent, that he had never been to South Carolina, that he was born and reared in Sumter County, Alabama, and was there on a farm at the time of the alleged slaying in South Carolina, 'After hearing Winston's sory. Attorney Tucker declared that his client was innocent and set about to free him. He shed out a writ of habeas corpus and on last Friday, the day on which the sheriff of Moggett had planned to take his prisoner back to South Carolina, Judge Mix heard the case on its merits. The court, room was crowded, many a heart beat fast as the hearing proceeded. Murmurings were heard among the spectators expressing fear that Winston would be lynched if returned to South Carolina. Attorney Tucker argued his case, before Judge Mix, cliting that his client had not been properly identified, that he was not a fugitive from justice. The extradition warte that he had honored was illegal, cliting that the burden of proof was upon he state to prove that Nat Winston was the Samuel Brown wanted for murder in South Carolina. When Judge Mix heard this argument of logic and reason, he sustained the writ and ordered Winston discharged. Court Rebukes Sheriff As Winston left the court room he was seized by Wings, as if to take him to South Carolina, despite the court's ruling. This was reported to Attorney Tucker, who promptly notified the court. Sheriff Wings was ordered to appear immediately before Judge Mix, who with emphasis said: "If you lay a hand on that man, I'll put you in jail for the court. This man, Winston, is free." Royal Lodge, K, of P., employed counsel to defend Winston who is a member of that lodge. WESTWOOD.

August 5—A resolution to buy the rulers of the Mosaels: Templeism society from the Bush estate, was adopted by a vote of 223 to 511 at the meeting of the Mosaels National Grand Lodge here last week. This article is a brief overview in which former Illinois Attorney and present Atty. General Scipio Jones, filled suit as result of a disagreement which arose over the returns from the rituals and contracts of the order which were held by the Bush family. The society contracted to buy the rituals and contracts for $150,000 and $100,000, respectively, the same, but the contract was never ratified by the National Grand Temple. Jones' suit asked for an order declaring the rituals and the copyright of the property of the Society rather than that of Bush heirs J. E. Bush and Chester W. Keats, and for a receiver to account for the money already paid as fees, which is alleged to have amounted to $200,000. This suit was decided in favor of the lodge. Chancellor Martinua advised that it would be wise for the order to complete the contract with the Bush helts, which advice was well taken, according to the action of the society. A report by National Grand Seribe A. E. Bush showed that the order had more than 30,000 local lodges representing more than $300,000 in assets. Dr. S. J. Elliott was re-elected National Grand Master and A. E. Bush, son of the founder, re-elected National Grand Serbe Secretary. TO BUILD A $100,000 HOSPITAL IN HOUSTON HOUSTON, Texas, Aug. 5. One of the outstanding and notable achievements of the United Brthropers of Friendship and Sisters of the Mysterious Ten, one of this state's strongest colored fraternal organizations, which held its 38th annual session in this city last-week, was a vote to build a $100,000 hospital. In commenting on the new hospital it was stated: "This sanitarium and clinic will be the first of its character ever built by a fraternal society in the world, and is to be the best equipped and furnished in all the country, the cost of the same being one hundred thousand dollars. If we expect to maintain our places in the world's advancement, we must give more attention to preventive diseases and remedies, and therefore prepare ourselves for to come with our years of experience and growth. The Negro woman for over two hundred and fifty years, has been dragged from pillar to post, segregated and debased, left to die in cellars, unattended by the proper medical care, and is today the most segregated member in our American civilization, when it comes to safe play in matters that painful to her health. She is carted off and placed in a cellar, while a Negro surgeon, as well qualified, any one must put on pockets with this handsome pocket, and cannot follow his profession In the white man's sanitarium. Away with this condition of things! No race is safe which can not maintain a vigorous and sanitary health condition." The, U. B. F. was the first colored organization to obtain home office holdings in this city in excess of $300,000. It is said to be the richest Negro fraternal organization of the state.

Hubbard ran, the 100-yard dash in 9.9, and made a leap of 24 feet 9.7-8 inches in the broad jump. Although defeated by the world champion heavyweight wrestler Zhyko, two falls to one in a recent match at San Francisco, the New York Giki, the Negro wrestler, forced the Pole to extend himself, and according to the verdict of the judges made a showing that was far above mediocre. In reporting the match a judge declared: Having come, seen and been convinced that the gentleman in question indeed is of ebony hue, let me tell you that while he *lost* he is both something new and likiwou game. Two or three times during his bout with Wihadek Zhvzevk he was caught in punishing holds—and to one who knows the wrestling game he fought them valiantly when he could easily have worked to the ropes and had them broken by referee's order Zykszako took the first ball in 23 minutes and 5 seconds with a reverse-headlock and bar bar. Skii took the second in 22 minutes and 15 seconds with a flying half-Nelson and crotch, one of the most spectacular holds in the game. Skii had the same hold in the third and deciding round, but the heavier Zykszako in his struggles to break it won a fluke over the Negro and falling over him. The fall came in 5 minutes and 45 seconds. Black Bill, Cuba's picturesque fly and bantamweight champion, will be out of the ring for several weeks.

He is accompanied by two others in the act, which opens with a poetic introduction of the star by Miss Monette Moore. Sammy appears in his mischievous style and soon gets into a squabble with his buddy Harold Baquet. This brings out some smart, sharp comedy, Young Baquet sings "All Alone," and makes a hit with his sweet voice. Sammy, dressed red hot has another humorous round with his buddy, and then Miss Moore sings "Who'll Clap Your Sue?" etc. As the dandy and singing it, why? Why They Call Sammy, dressed red hot, has chance to display his talent, his brilliant eyes and pearly teeth.

Their finale is spirted. Green and Bailey are the comedy pair. Both are eccentrically dressed and they keep the audience laughing. As a candidate for Mayor of Dixie, the man makes much fun out of his speech rehearsal. The female member also has a humorous monologue with herself as the subject.

Chicago papers recently devoted columns of columns devoted to the defense of a wealthy Negro lawyer. His fortune had its corner stone in coal. Prior to the Civil war, Robert Gordon was a Negro slave belonging to a Virginia miner; there was no West Virginia then. In those days slack coal was thought unavailable. Gordon barged the "leavin's" from his master, barged it down to Chesapeake, sold it and kept on selling it until he was dead. He was ashamed of his wife—she was too meek, too self-effacing, too everything that his dominant nature didn't like, but when the crisis came in their lives she was the one who held the reins and brought them safely through disaster!

(Fifteen incarcerations were found on the dead man's head and his skull was crushed.) Fred finally erased for mercy, whereupon Henry, who had been held in the prison, was released. A cover of a revolver started to get him and he to his aid, but the pistol was trapped in his back and he was incapacified with death. Shot While Down At this jalal Gandhi declared Gorce sequestered to lose consciousness, and the deputy constable order Schultman rode and told him, "I can handle him now. I am going to shoot him." He fired two shots at Gorco as he lay on the ground. The whites were about to leave the mortally wounded man, but Henry pleaded for them to take him back to his brother in law. They consented to carry him to Dr. Coleman and Jutteville, where he died on, an operating table, where his wounds were taken to cayton and placed in jail to await the request Monday morning. On Sunday morning Prof. Maynard stood for their release. Gorce's hat was not preserved until three o'clock Sunday afternoon. Citizens Aroused The commission of Bennett at the highest level Monday, morning at Hong's underwriting or enforcement in Kickwood in spite of conflicting evidence offered by the compulsive and conflicting testimony given by Henry and Candida has caused feeling to can high among both white and colored in St. Charles. The jury was out only 2 minutes before delivering its verdict. In his testimony, Bennett declared to have stopped the men because he believed the car stopped; he then changed and declared he appalled them for spoiling. He admitted ordering the law to move out of the way so that he could make his shots, which had been brought out in Schuchman's testimony. Engage Attorney White citizens of St. Charles, several of whom witnessed the shooting have offered to aid in the prosecution of Bennett, while the colored citizens are organizing to fight to bring the slayer to justice. Lawyer Freeman L. Martin has been engaged to handle the prosecution. It is expected that the N. A. A. C. P. will enter the case. Respected Citizen Gorce was a well known and respected citizen in Chicago. He was a Mason of the Royal Arch degree, and a pream with the Brownie Carnival A. Co. He lived at 714 E. 45th street.

CHICKEN MURDERS CALL OUT POLICE Residents in the neighborhood of 3222 Lawton boulevard were aroused a commotion in a coal shed in the rear of the home of Mrs. Lulu Randolph, at the Lawton boulevard address, at 3 o'clock Sunday morning. Some one, unidentified, called the Lacade Avenue Station and said "Murder is being done." Technically, the information was correct, but what Policemen found was greatly different. They discovered that a stray "alley hound" had walked through an unlocked rear gate of the Randolph home and stalked into the shed, where Rhode Island Red chickens were roosting. Before the policemen had arrived the canine had "murdered" half of the chicken population of the shed. The interruption of the police infuriated the dog, which attempted to bite one of the officers. However a shot fired killed the dog almost instantly. Mrs. Randolph did not place a value on the fowls which had been killed. $560 JEWELRY RECOVERED WITH ARTWORK WITH ARREST OF MAN Jewelry valued at $560, stolen from the residence of, Warren Champion, 1647 Fourth street, Madison, Ill., was recovered Monday with the arrest of Henry Steel, 30, at 410 South Fourteenth street, St. Louis, who later admitted the theft.

They readily admitted having received the rings from Steel as presents. A gold bar pin, valued at $10, which had also been stolen from Champion's home, was recovered.

New spotlights, bearing the word "police" on the lenses are to be prohibited for the machines used by detectives, so that they will not be mistaken for private cars.

NEW LOCATION OF The St. Louis Argus 2312-14 Market St. Phone, Central 4620 ST.1.OUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, AUGUST 7, 192 "We, the CoCored Interdenominational Ministers Council, beg leave after careful investigation to call your attention to the serious handicaps of our colored children, living East of Grand avenue, in respect to their public school facilities. Being not unmildred of, we highly appreciate what the Board has already done in the last few years in the building of the splendid Lincoln grade school, the fine open air school and, the purchase of the Laclede avenue lot for a future building. We know also conditions herein referred to antedated our honored Superintendent's taking charge of the schools, and antedated also, the coming upon the Board of many of its present members: We make this appeal to you, therefore, feel that you will welcome our cooperation and feel the purpose to give every child in the city an equal chance in the public schools. There is crying need for another senior high school for Negro youths living East of Grand Blvd. Between sixty and seventy thousand of our group live East of Grand. This section will remain densely populated by them because it is a great tenement district and will remain such for years to come. The reasons are patient. The large industries between the river and Grand Blvd., and those in the growing factory centers on the Illinois side will require Negro labor who will naturally live as near to their work as possible. Most of the large Negro churches and grade schools are located East of Grand Blvd. As there are clearly well defined groups of Negro students on Grand East of Grand, and that West of Grand in each group ought to fare alike in school privileges. A high school East of Grand in simple justice to her hundreds of colored children in that section. St. Louis, we are sure, is too fair to deny. If it is the settled policy of the Board to introduce into the St. Louis school system the junior high school idea, we ask that the colored children East of Grand have one. It is not for us to say where either of these schools should be built, whether or either or both should be built up, extensive Laclede avenue lot. The School district is with the Superintendent to break out. We are asking only that these we needed schools be provided for our youths East of Grand as soon as possible. We can earnly urge that all the seventh and eighth grades for children living East of Grand Blvd. be taken from Marshall School and be put back in the district schools where they used to be. We ask that this be done in the fall. During the time of the building of these two high schools, if our request be granted, would the Board meanwhile, have the parents East of Grand Blvd. longer bear the heavy burden of car fare and suffer other distresses by sending their children to distant Marshall School? There are several reasons why all the grades should remain in the schools nearest to where the children of this age live: 1. During the seven years that Marshall School has been open, the parents East of Grand have paid in carfare for their children to get only the seventh and eighth grades, a sum aggregating between eighty-five and ninety-five thousand dollars; and last year, 75% conservatively stated. The pupils attending Marshall, Ivred East of Grand Blvd. We are sure that the Board only needs to know these facts in order to give immediate relief. 2. The crowded conditions at Marshall school this year were very serious as being inimical to the proper conduct, "discipline and efficiency of the pupils." There were three rooms at Marshall in which two different classes, with their teachers, relict simultaneously. Such a condition is destructive of the children's morale and puts away their mental process, teaching force at Marshall is splendid but they cannot do the impossible. School ethics require that they work and succeed in silence. 3. Marshall was so cruel this year with the seventh and eighth grades that many, quite three hundred, were sent back to their district school, as at Lincoln, but many others living East of Grand, were required to go to distant Marshall at so great a cost of time, money and orderly deocrum. In our judgment, based upon careful observation as pastors, what was done for some of the children East of Grand ought to have been done for all the children in section. We respectfully and earnestly argue that all the children East of Grand Bldg., be permitted to complete the old grade in their own home districts. May these changes be made at the opening of the schools in the fall? As pastors knowing the burdens of the people, may we suggest that if the Board does not see its way clear to make these suggested changes as to the seventh and eighth grades, they may the carriage of all children who live East of Grand who attend Marshale. While of course this will not leave the loss of time and reduce the exposure of the children to the many harmful influences and moral, incident to long street travel, it will lighten the burden to some extent upon these struggling pupils. The counter statement is made to these representations that the Board of Education is introducing the Junior High School idea into our public school system, and that some delay and inconvenience are to be expected, they give fine expert theories as to the importance of this intermediate link which is worth what we may have to suffer in order to get it; but we plead that our children he not ruin the idea is being introduced. For some reasons we have wafted and suffered. The children of the white patrons were not required to suffer as the Negro children and their parents have suffered. Ben Blowett school started out as a tall WHAT IS SUCCESS? The greatest question that faces the Negro Race today, is can they succeed, in the different lines of Business Enterprises? How can they answer this question in the afirmae, vive, not by words, but by their deeds, by their skill and ability that has brought success to them. Negro business enterprises must have the support of the Race Group and a source of strong financial backing in order to succeed.

The Company is doing good business in Real Estate, Rentals, Fire Insurance, Personal Lodge and Property Laws. fledged junior high, but Marshall always was a hawkshift. 4. For the last seven years, since Marshall has been operating, at least two-thirds of the children living East of Grand Hird, on account of carfare and long distance, have been able only to secure a sixth grade training or at most the seventh grade. In times past when the eighth grade was in the school nearest to where the children lived, between eighty and ninety per cent would finish the eighth grade. Present conditions tend to blight the minds of our children, giving such a trend to their characters that our juvenile delinquency and crime are on the increase, for which the community is paying dearly. In times past before the last two grades were removed to Marshall, the graduating exercises in connection with our children's finishing the eighth grade were events that were inspiring to the whole local community. These exercises were not infrequently held in some church in the district and were delightful to students. Aspirations of the children were quickened, and the ideals of parents were elevated. Thus the school and the church worked together to enrich the local community in wholesome life values. Finally, The two imperative needs which we urgently ask the Board to meet without delay are: 1. A senior and junior high school he built for the children East of Grand Blvd. 2. The seventh and eighth grades be placed back in the districts schools for children East of Grand Blvd, and this change be made in the fall. Respectfully submitted. H. H. Jackson, President, S. J. Lane, Secretary. URBAN LEAGUE NOTES Industrial Department For the past few weeks there has been a distinct falling off in employment, its condition our offices have been in, with job seekers.

The Stars are coming strong and will be hard to stop by either St. Louis, Chicago or Kansas City. The opening game ended 9 to 8. Birmingham made 7 runs in the 3rd inning and should have had the game ended with an 8 to 4 count, but they could not hold the lead for they scored no more, and the Stars gradually drew up and passed them.

Hampton scattered seven hits over the entire route and was especially effective with men on base. The Stars got to Polderster in the third frame for a sufficient number of hits to earn five runs and the fifth result out of danger.

Market ST. LOUIS FANS TO TAKE KANSAS CITY BY STORM Special Trains Will Take Crowds To See Baseball Game Between Moharchs And Stars Sunday Series Will Test Relative Strength Of Champions And League Leaders. May Decide Pennant. Indications are that more than five hundred St. Louis base ball fans will leave here Saturday night for Kansas City to witness the game Sunday, between the Stars and Monarchs. Never before has a series attracted such attention as the five game event between these two clubs starting Saturday. The split season policy of the league this year makes it necessary that the winners in each half play a series for the Negro National League championship, and the right to meet the Eastern League winners in contest for the World's Colored Championship. The Kansas City Monarchs, league champions, and winners of the 1924 world's championship, pulled through the first half, this year, three games ahead of, St. Louis. In the second half St. Louis is running out ahead with a percentage of 789, having won 15 and lost 4 games. The Chicago American Gators have won 18 and lost 6, and are second with a rating of .644, 105 points behind the leaders. The Monarchs are in the third place with 7 won and 6 lost, a percentage of .538. The contests between the Stars and the Monarchs will show the relative strength of the two clubs. St. Louis has already won 3 out of 5 from the American Giants, on enemy territory. Kansas City came here the early part of the first half and made a clean sweep of three games. This was before the Stars had rounded into form, and the two clubs have not met since. President Rabe Foster is so sure that St. Louis, with its young play, will stand and point the ball that has already arranging for the series between his club and the Monarchs the last of September. In fact, his home paper even refuses to print the true standing of the clubs, and has the Wingy City City integration, primarily perched in first place. The anticipated events of fans from here Saturday night show the luxury of St. Louis hats the Stars. Every one who has seen them play, from day to day and series after series, knows there is no flash in the pan. The team is not a quitter, which was proven in the Missouri series, especially the last game. If the Monarch has with this series it will be the hardest earned victory this year. "The Stars" left this afternoon, yet for, the western Missouri metropolis. They will get a good night's rest and a brisk work out Saturday morning, and be ready for the game of their lives when the call "Play Ball" comes Saturday afternoon. "Devil" Wells Wins Two Games With His Sticks Finishing Wednesday With A Thrilling Home Run Climax. League Leaders Leave For Kansas City, With A Record Of Fifteen Games Won Out Of Nineteen Contests, To Face The Raging Champions. The $St. Louis Stars maintained their 60 mile on hour pennant piles in the Nationals colored Laguna by defeating the Memphis Red Sox plotted by the tactician Dismukes, in four of the five games played, at St. Louis Park during the series, closed with a ninth hitting victory which reached its climax when Wells batted out a home run with Belt on base and the score tied. The score was 7 to 5. Some excellent base running and spendful coaching by Manager Jim Taylor were largely responsible for the great showing made after the Stars had dropped the first game 8 to 6 in fourteen innings. The Stars went on a batting rampage on Sunday and went over big, winning by a 19 to 1 score. On Monday the Stars defeated the Red Sox 6 to 2. On Tuesday they made it three straight over the speedy Red Sox and triumphed 5 to 3. The final game went the right way: the Stars winning 7 to 5 who cells crashed out his home run with the score tied and Bell on the paths. Only one run was necessary, but three years ago the rules were changed to give the batter credit for a home run even if not necessary, in the event of a home run scoring the winning run and the score shall be the total number of runs scored. The batter came around the bases and touches the Saturday's Game The Stars dropped the opening game to the Memphis Red Sox by an 8 to 6 score in fourteen innings, and sent the fans and yule-humble scribes home disgusted and to, a late, cold and tasteless supper. Several throwers participated and Ross and Glass were the only pitchers worthy of the mune. Memphis scored twice in the second innning when they bunched four hits, but their lead was shortlisted as the Stars tallied a like number of runs in the third innning of Spearman, who was touched, up for 9 hits and five runs in the seven and two-third innings he worked. Glass took up the burden in the tenth after Moore allowed the Stars to score the trying run in the ninth amid the delighted shouts of the largest Saturday crowd of the season. In the fourth the Red Sox went into the lead, Russell singled to score Kemp who had forced Miller at second following the latter's single. In the sixth they made the score 4 to 2 when Miller singled for his second hit and rode over on Cunningham's torrid two-base smash to left. The locals crept up on Dismukes' crowd in the seventh when Taylor batting for Reese, sent a sacrifice fly to Jackson to score, who had batted for Wilson and batted into a force play on Tyler who opened the round with a single to right. Came the eighth, and both teams scored twice to make the score 6 to 5. The Stars fled the count in the ninth on a double by D.

A home run by Wells was the winning blow, and this coupled with timely doubles by Reese and Bell gave the locals five runs and the game in the ninth.

There is little doubt in our mind as to what would have happened to Winston shortly after the news was confirmed, that the prisoner was within the borders of the Palmetto State. We imagine that a "neck-tie" party had already been organized and the participants ready to go. By previous arrangements, no doubt, the Sheriff was to wire ahead, the news, of the coming of Samuel Brown, the Negro, who had murdered a white man in South Carolina and fled some twenty years ago. Of course the only trial that was scheduled, was that of the mob. Mob trials are conducted without reason. It does a victim just as much good to say yes as it does to say no. Mob verdicts are the same always. The louder the pleas of innocence, the louder the yells for blood. So when we think of these things, we can't but shudder to think of what might have happened, if someone had not acted as an advocate and plead before the courts here and saved Nat Winston, from at least being exposed to such grave danger. Visualize a moment. Get a picture of hundreds of men women and children, waiting at a little country railroad station for Sheriff Winges with the prisoner. Ropes, more than enough, all sorts of fire arms, from the musket to the newest model, yes; knives of every description, from the pen knife to the butcher's, all in readiness to assist its owner in securing a souvenir, should the "necktie" party come off. This we say, we repeat, is the one big reason why it was best in the light of right and justice, that the court here refused to allow a victim to be returned to South Carolina, under the circumstances. We do not say that every time a Negro is returned South for an alleged crime that he is lynched or burned at the stake, but we do say, in the case where a white man had been killed, that we would not have given 5c for the life of any Negro who was accused of the crime, and at the same time in the hands of the so-called law.

There will be millions of people of these United States who will be sorely disappointed if the Ku Klux Klan is allowed to parade at the Nation's capital Saturday, thus furthering their propaganda of race and religious hatred. The statement that the Klan is a benevolent, charity and religious organization, has been repeatedly denied by scores of former members, who say that most of the announced principles are merely "catchy" phrases which have caught many good men and women who aimed for lofty purposes, but when they found out the real purpose of the Klan organization, refused to have anything further to do with it. The Klan is unlike any other organization, religious or fraternal. It does not merely restrict its membership to certain races or religion, but its further purpose is to rob those whom it discriminates against as to membership, of citizenship, thus pitting one class against another; race against race, religion against religion in a most dangerous manner. The hood they wear is a signal of hostility and unfriendiness. Every person who accepts membership in the Klan says to the Negroes, Jews and Catholics, "You are not fit for citizenship and as soon as we get in power, we will deny you that right." All self respecting people who are so assailed resent it. Yes, they resent it with all their soul. These people, Negroes, Jews and Catholics, have as much right under the Constitution and laws of the land to enjoy the full citizenship rights as any member of that hooded band or anybody else. It is a brazen attack upon the Constitution of the United States to allow a Klan parade at the Nation's capital, and the President and Attôrney General are parties to the act if nothing is done by these officials to prevent the parade. Fear is expressed, as the time draws near, that there might be some trouble, therefore, all the police reserves have orders to be ready, and a few companies of marines have also been ordered to the scene. All of this is the more reason why the Klan parade should not be had. THAT HAIRDRESSERS' BILL. been the complaints that have come in these columns last week, the com- pany's Bill, recently passed by the State Jus- ce just now how the complaints are g the bill has been passed, the govern- ment a board or commission to carry out The merits or demerits, of the bill, w wood in about a year from now. the Negroes of the State, for the most that Governor Baker did not appoint understood that the governor made generally expected that he would carry why the governor failed, no one seems Many have been the complaints that have come to us since the publication in these columns last week, the complete text of the Hairdressers' Bill, recently passed by the State legislature. We do not see just now how the complaints are going to help the situation, as the bill has been passed, the governor signed it and has appointed a board or commission to carry out the provisions of the law. The merits or demerits, of the bill, will no doubt, be fully understood in about a year from now. Of course, the Negroes of the State, for the most part, were disappointed in, that Governor Baker did not appoint a Negro on this board. We understood that the governor made such a promise, and it was generally expected that he would carry out, that promise. Just why the governor failed, no one seems to know. It may be that he has been influenced by some one, who, like C. G. Williams, has advised the governor wrong. By every rule of the game, taking into consideration the number of Negro hairdressers, beauty culturists, chiropodists and manicurists, in the state, the governor was bound by every rule of justice and fair play to appoint a Negro on that board, but he refused to do so. He could not have possibly overlooked the importance of such an appointment, but what does the governor care? We call the people's attention to these things because we believe that the Negroes will always be disappointed in matters of this kind, unless we think when we are voting men into office: The time is at hand when we should vote for men and measures rather than mere party labels. The ministers of the city say that they are determined in their fight for better school facilities for Negro children. Let all the people say, "Amen." The talk about a war between the white and the darker races has gained some impetus, since it is reported that Marcus Garvey is to be deported when he is released from prison at Atlanta. Following the death and burial of William Jennings Bryan, the Ku Klux Klan, of the realm of Pennsylvania and Ohio, held appropriate ceremonies and burned the fiery cross in honor of the "Greatest Klanman" that ever lived. We wonder if the same thing would happen in the Klan strongholds, should President Coolidge die? Comment and Opinion Devoted to a Discussion of Social and Civic Problems and Events By GORDON H. SIMPSON Executive Secretary, Urban League of St. Louis A NEW KIND OF HOLE IN THE GROUND St. Louisans have seen several holes dug in the ground in which promises have been made for the erection of wonderful buildings for business, social, fraternal and other organizations, and the promises have materialized, some others have ceased with the digging of the hole, or failed miserably in their realization. Recently a hole was dug in the ground at Jefferson Ave, and Market street and in that hole at present there is being constructed the new future home of the Peoples Finance Corporation: Such tangible evidence as this of the intention of the directing heads of an organization to keep their promises to their stockholders and depositors increases the reasons for confidence and faith in the company. The new financial institution and should receive the hearty commendation and financial support of all interested colored citizens who can and should back such enterprises. Upon completion of its new home, the Peoples Finance Corporation will undoubtedly need increasing numbers of trained young men and women to carry on its work. This means em, employment for the qualified workers whose education has cost their parents many a hard-earned dollar. St. Louis needs a colored bank and the-plans of this institution have such a development in mind. It is inevitable that the growing race consciousness, the increased volume of Negro business, as well as the increased wealth of our group in St. Louis, that a bank must come and co-operate. Here then is an enterprise which will furnish employment for our boys and girls, a safe investment for our savings, a tangible evidence of the advance of the Negro in the field of business. Let us have more of this new kind of hole dug in the ground in St. Louis, and continue to build these monuments of Negro achievement, to give our faith in them by investment of our money where it will do the most good Statewide Organization By Rev. S. S. Pitcher To the Editor of the St. Louis Argus, In 1986, before I was an electorate, I entered the arena of politics, and from the platform and otherwise, I have worked strictly as a partisan. I am now convinced that we as a group, will have to do away with the label, and let the party (Republican) that we have stood by, so faithfully and loyally, know that the stamp G. O. P. means nothing to us, unless the person of their organization and candidate are willing to practice the fundamentals of the G. O. P. in reality. The day of one group thinking the vote of the other group is in their vest pocket, because they are labeled this or that party is passed. The political sun is too high for self-appointed leaders, who are willing to sell the whole race for a few patty dollars in the way of an appointment, to speak for the many thousand electorates of this commonwealth. "The time of organization is at hand, if we expert to be recognized as a political factor or otherwise, so we will get have a repetition of our first State Convention, when the leader of the state machine said to our group, "Thus far (Alternate) shall go, and no farther." And, too some of our self-appointed, self-opinionated leaders said, "If I can't, you shouldn't," and, therefore, we were defeated in sending a delegate at large to the last Republican Convention, thereby giving the machine a good argument for our defeat: that we could not agree upon one from our group. We believe in organization for effectual and successful work. We must content to be properly represented, not by appointed leaders of other groups, but by selected leaders from our group, who will not burrow "our suffrage for a "mess of potage." To bring about such conditions, we must thoroughly organized throughout the state, and have such organizations in working with us by the time of the next State Convention and general election. We should have a great big get-together meeting this fall, at some place centrally located in the state, where we can perfect a state-write organization to bring about better conditions, as relate to our group politically. We have the "Yes sir, John," and "No sir, Boss," men but away with them. And they can only be done away with by those who are not looking for a little political job, but are looking for the best interest of our group. In the editorial in the Argus, issue of July 24, under the caption "Petitions Mean Nothing to Governor Baker," we plead guilty to the sentence in that editorial concerning "Whooping their lungs out," for we thought the Governor had a trace of fair dealing in his composition, and that at least in a case like the Crump case, the governor of a great Commonwealth, would not deny any of his constituents the privilege of petitioning; him—in a case where race prejudice and hatred had reached its zenith. Knowing the teaching of our Creator, that the humbleest may come to Him through the Lowly Nazarene with their petitions and supplication, yet the little Governor of Missouri says, "Keep away from me. I will not hear them however just they may be." As to Senator Williams, whom he (Baker) appointed to fill the term of the late Senator Spencer, we are not as premature as our Governor was concerning petition, we should know just where he stands as relates to our group, in giving us a square deal. We as a race have too much at stake to continue as we have, es- pecially along political lines. Our national, state, municipal and home rights are being encuached upon by those we support at the polls. Let us get properly organized throughout the state, and then rise up to our full heights politically, as men and women. Come away from the big gate and go upon the porch and demand entrance into the party Council. We have nothing to lose politically, because we have nothing of note, and the little that has been given to us, is ready to be taken away. Let us have a big organization meeting this fall.

(By Special Correspondent) On last Friday at 3:38 p.m., thirty members of the first session of Camp River Cliff (the Y. M. C. A. Camp near Bourbon, Mo.) arrived at Union Station, radiating joy and praises which have already been sung of "Camp River Cliff the beautiful." The boys were met at the station by their parents and friends who lost me time in getting to their homes where they could tell the whole story of this most wonderful experience. Among the first exclamations made by each camper were: "we had a great time," "the cats were wonderful" Among the very important events of the last days of the session, were the "Wild Caravan" and "Field and Track Meet." The former was held Wednesday, July 11, and the winners were as follows. The first 50-ft race was between the beginners of boys, who won their yellow ribbons and sinks in their swim during the session. Those of the race were Milton Purnell, Hamilton Stewart, Edward Whitfield, Wilford Turner, and Story Vason, Story Vason came in first and Wilford Turner second. In the class D events, Thomas Kye won the 100 ft, free style with Milton Moore second and Bill Stewart third. Milton Moore won the back stroke honors with Bill Young second and Sol James third. James Taylor won the Class D breast stroke with Bill Young taking second place. In class C, Herbert Murrell came first and John Young second in both the free style 25 yds. and back stroke, but Jerald Landseid made them hustle in both events. This meet was ent short after demonstration on account of the decided drop in temperature. After the meet a delightful time was had at the session banquet. Field Bar Field Day was held on the campus Thursday afternoon (the 30th). The Class C events were won as follows: 50 yd dash, R. Carwin first; J. Young, second; Albon Mitchell, third and H. Murrell, fourth. 100 yd dash Carwin first, Sol James second, J. Young third, Thos. Kye fourth, Running broad, jump won by Carwin, Mitchell second, Sol James third and J. Young fourth. Runnin' high, Carwin first, J. Young second, T. Kye third. In class D, Bill Young won first in the 50 yd, dash, W. Turner, second in Stewart, third, and the finish in the order in the 100 yd, dash, running two jump and high jump. Calbin No. 2, the team relay with No. 4, second and Cabin No. 4 won the tug-of-war against No. 2. The Banquet The session banquet was a real big success. Besides the good things the menu there was fellowship, fun and good cheer. The program opened with everybody taking his turn to arise, tell his name, cabin number, previous camping experience and favorite camp dish. Beans, C. R. C. Fried potatoes and chicken and dumplings took the popularity prizes. Then music, singing "memories of 'Y' camps in and new campers. A "camp song singing contest" was won by Cabin No. 2, which also won the stunnite prize cake. The banquet cakes were made by Mrs. Leon W. Schard and Mrs. Franks Cason. It was a real big night. Cabin Inspection Honors One of the most interesting races in the camp was the one between Cabins for the daily winning of the flag, which is awarded by a special committee of judges to the cabin being most neatly kept and arranged. So close was the competition that, although Cabin No. 4 won the flag five outings of out, nine, the total scores were Cabin 4. 764 points, Cabin 2. 700 points and Cabin 3. 730 points. Camp honor roll and winners of camp emblems will be announced next week. ALA.

OWENS IMPORTANCE OF THE CORRECT USE OF TERMS Fidelity, in its proper sense, is but another word for fortunateness, or happiness; and I can see no advantage in the improper use of words, when proper terms are to be found, but on the contrary, much mischief. For, by familiarizing the mind to "equivocal" expressions, that is, such as may be taken in two or more different meanings, we introduce confusion of thought, and furnish the sophist with his beat and easiest tools. For the juggle of sophistry consists, for the greater part, in using a word in one sense in the premise and in another in the conclusion, should accustom ourselves to think of words over precise and steadfast terms, over when and or the deficiency, or the corruption of the language will not permit the same strictness in speaking. The mathematician finds this so necessary, to the which that he is seeking, that his science begins with, and is founded on the, definition of his terms. At the utmost, we have only to rescue words, already existing and familiar, from the false or vague meaning imposed on them by carelessness, or by the clipping and debasing misuse of the market. And surely happiness, duty, faith, truth and final blessness are matters of deeper and dearer interest: for all men than circles to the geometrician or the character of a plant to the botanist. Among the aids to reflection, place the following maxim prominent: Let distinctness in expression advance side by side with distinction in thought. For one useless subtlety in our elder divines and moralists, I will produce ten sophisms of equivocation in the writings of our modern preceptors; and for one error resulting in excess in distinguishing the indifferent. I would show ten mischievous delusions from the habit of confounding the diverse. —Sister Susan. ORATORICAL CONTEST A GLANCE AT THE PROGRESS OF THE NEGRO RACE By Kewpie Oreal Westberry in 1619 when that Dutch vessel landed at Jamestown, Virginia with twenty colored persons on board and sold them as slaves, those twenty persons were the entire colored race of the American Continent, and this race saw nothing before them but hard work and abuse. For two hundred and forty-six years they trolled night and day hungry, naked, tired, sleepy and overworked at the lashed of hard task masters. The dead daughters and mothers sent prayers to God's throne as one prayer until their prayers were answered with freedom of many thousand nameless, homeless, penniless Negroes, who had not the least view of education. In 1867 there were 4000 Negroes engaged in business but fifty years later there were 50,000; an annual volume of more than $13,000,000,000 worth of business. Insurance is one of the most progressive businesses of the colored race. The first Nassau Insurance Company in America was the American Insurance Company of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and was organized in 1810 and in 1880. Insurance became a regular business in the colored race. The failure of the Freeman's Saving and Trust Co. in 1873 marked the loss of millions of dollars which greatly retarded the progress of Nassau enterprises for some time, but finally we made that failure a stepping stone to success and in 1888 the first colored bank was organized and today we have more than seventy-four banks in the United States, with an annual volume of $100,000,000. Another feature of progress in the business world was the organization of the Colored Business League, which was quite a helpful organization, and was organized at - Boston, Mass., in 1900, and in twenty years there were State Business Leagues in thirteen states; and a total of two hundred eighty six chartered local leagues. James Derham was born in Philadelphia in 1787 and was the first colored doctor in America. As a slave so sold and became the medical assistant and his new master. He continued the progress along medical pursuits, and in 1891 there were 4,777 colored doctors and many them have national fame. D. D. H. Williams performed the first operation on the heart. There are more than sixty-four medical associations and more than 150 hospitals and nurse training schools which may be attended by the Negro. We operate more than seventy religious journals and more than 243 newspapers. We own more than $70,198,807 worth of church property; and more than $50,000,000 worth of school property. We have more than 32,401 public school teachers and more than 1500 institutions of learning. In. 1829. Mr. J. B. Rusworm of Bowdow College, Mr. Theodore S. Wright of Princeton Theological Seminary and Mr. Edward Jones of Amherst College were the only college graduates among the American Negro, but today, we have doubled that number many times more. We have more than 5,000 college graduates including the many hundred graduating other courses. I am not giving the progress, but just a glance at the progress of the Negro Race.

C., August 5.—Notifi- cation of the posthumous award of the Distinguished Service Cross to Lieutenant Urbane F. B.ass, Medical Degree and Degree 93rd Dilu- sion of the A.E. to be perceived Wednesday by relatives of the deceased hero. It is said that Lieuten- ant Bass was the only Negro from North Carolina serving in the A.E. F. to be awarded the D. S. C. His widow and other relatives live in Raleigh. Lieutenant Bass was mortally wounded while rendering first aid in an advanced position under heavy fire at Mentholis, France, October 6. 1918. Both of his legs were shot in the head an exploding shell and he died on the way to a hospital. Later his body was returned to Raleigh for burial and interred in the family plot here. The distinguished war hero studied medicine at Shaw University here and was practicing medicine at Frederickburg, Va., at the outbreak of the war, when he enlisted. He married Miss Maude L. Vass of Raleigh. His brother-in-law, Dr. R. S. Vass, a prominent local physician, was also attached to the 372nd regiment and was stationed in a field hospital a short distance back of the lines when Leutenant Bass was killed. MAKE TONS OF $1 BILLS WASHINGTON, August 5—More than 800 tons of $1 bills, represent ing many millions, will be put into circulation by the government this year, compared with nearly tons in 1000, according to a settlement today by the Federal Bureau of Efficiency, which has joined the Treasury in a campaign to popularize the $2 bill as well as other bills of higher denominations. The bureau has been making a survey as to the manner in which the paper, currency is used, and it finds that the public is wedded to the $1 bill. The popularity is at in part to necessity and part to habit. "Automobiles, movies and higher prizes have made it necessary to carry more pocket money of old by the bureau announced." The bureau have started the run on $1 bills, but it is believed to have gone further is necessary or economical. The public is believed to be using more $1 bills than is in its own interest.

Cannady from Ronald Hayes, famous Race tenor. The letter, written the latter part of July, declared that the noted artist was spending two weeks in Vienna, having dental work done, after which he will go to the Tyrols in Italy where he will take several weeks' rest. As to his plans for the coming musical season, Mr. Hayes declared: On September 14, I give my first concert of the year in Berlin and the second in October. After this I go to, or come, to Vienna for concerts. Between the 10th and 20th I sing in Rome, Italy; between the 20th and 24th I shall sing two concerts in Budapest. Then on October 28, I sail for U. S. A. aboard the S. S. Paris. My concerts begin in the United States November 15 at Providence, R. L., and continue for this time to the end of April, 1928. PART TWO Writer, In Scribner's Magazine, Makes Bold Attack On Inter-Marriage NEW YORK, July 20.—Derdling a number of absurdities into which race prejudice leads white Americans, Albert-Guerard, writing in Scribner's Magazine, speaks of the so-called "inferior product of mixture and elites" in the United States, any such inferiority. Says Mr. Guerard. "There is a plaza in Paris dedicated to the three Alexander Dumas. The first, the son of a Hayton plaster and of a black woman, was a general at the time of the Revolution and the Empire. The second, unmistakable, African, in coloring and features, was the jolly giant who has fascinated three generations with his romantic tales, who made and lost several fortunes, managed newspapers and theatres, hobbled with the greatest in the land, and preceded Henry. Ford in devising methods of quantity production. The third, besides giving an everlasting and deployable model of manhood romantics in 'La Dame et Camellias,' besides suffering from a painful excess of technical skill and Parisian wit, created the modern problem play, paved the way for symbolism on the stage before Ilsen had been heard of, and wrote homiletic paradoxical, glittering prefaces when Bernard Shaw, his ungrateful son, was still in his cradle. Few Nordic families could offer the same record of physical and intellectual energy us that "colorful" dynasty of the Dumas. "Once more, I am only pleading for careful study; I am not claiming in advance that the mutatto is a desirable product. I am only stating that the true record of many people of mixed parentage should prevent them from accepting blindly any adverse verdict. On the whole, analogies drawn from other branches of biology are favorable to cross-breeding. If it be followed by selection. The finest breeds of dogs, horses and plants are the result of careful crossing. This proves very little. I know but it may art any rate act as a check on a prior conclusion. THE NEGRO IN THE CURRENT MAGAZINES For The Associated Negro Press. On page 233 of "The Forum" for August, "published Langston Hughes" "The Weary Blues," with this explanatory note at the beginning: "This poem entitled 'The Weary Blues' won the first poetry prize of the year, which was for colored writers by 'Opportunity,' the document of Negro life, by whose permission The Forum,reprints it as an example and encouragement to 'other Negro poets' In Scribner's Magazine for July, Gerald W. W. Johnson, author of "The Battling South" has an interesting and timely article on "The Dead Vote of the South." Mr. Johnson laments the fact that although, there were in South Carolina in 1920, 776,969 citizens over twenty-one years of age, "considerable less than 51,000 voted in the 1924 election." This, he claims, is 16,000 less than the vote cast in 1920. He states that there are 359,000 Negroes in South Carolina who only think they are citizens, yet it is a known fact, that only about one white voter in seven took the trouble to cast a ballot in the Presidential election. "Where people do not vote," declares Mr. Johnson, "demonocracy dies" and so far as the selection of presidents is concerned, the democracy of South Carolina is more than $3 per cent ready for the undertaker. Prof. Charles Sarolea writing in the Contemporary Review (London) for July, under the caption "The French-African Empire," says that "as recently as 1920, I had the hour of accompanying H. M. King Albert of Belgium on a state visit to West Africa. I was thus able to study on the spot the organization of those black armies which accomplished such prowess in the world war and whose 400,000 disciplined units contributed in a real measure to the final victory." The article deals in the main with the decadence of the French population, stating instance after instance where in all the French Provinces, especially of Morocco, Algeria and Tunis in the North, the Sahara in the center, Senegambia and the French Congo in the west and Madagascar in the Indian Ocean, two thirds of those territories are inhabited by aliens, In France proper, the aliens are said to outnumber the natives, fourteen to one. During the early part of the eighteenth century, France with her 25,000,000 had a larger population than the combined population of Great Britan and Germany. The writer argues, "But it seems inevitable that the newly enfranchised Americans will some day want to make use of their rights to secure their autonomy.

TEXAS COLLEGE GETS MANY LARGE DONATIONS TYLER, Texas, Aug. 5—(Special) The Texas College at Tyler, Texas, has received many large donations this year for building purposes and current expenses. The General Education Board of New York City has already given $26,000, and the Cham- ber of Commerce of Tyler, Texas in a drive for the school. The substantial growth of this institution is now calling the attention of educators far and near. It is on the ac- credited list of schools and the gratu- ties are granted certificates which entitle them to teach without exam- inations in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, Ala- bama, Georgia, South Carolina, Florida. Because of its unexcelled classroom, science equipment and a library of many thousand volume- and a strong faculty, the outlook for a record breaking enrollment is flattering. President-W. R. Banks is now laying plans to raise funds for the erection of buildings for a Library, Practice School, Hospital and Girls Trades. In the interest of these plans he will spread most of this month in the North and East. Missionaries report progress in their efforts to "induce African women to wear modern clothes"; butquent the fact that American women are making such remarkable progress in seeing how few clothes they can wear. The St. Louis/Argus DURKEE'S DISMISSAL IS DEMANDED BY HOWARD'S ALUMNI ASS'N PRESIDENT WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 5.—Dr. George Fraser Miller, president of the general alumni association of Howard University, addressing a mass meeting under auspices of the Howard Welfare League, in the New Bethel Baptist church last Wednesday night, amid prolonged cheers demanded the dismissal of Dr. Stanley Durkee from the presidency of the university, ending of the autumn collegiate term, was proclaimed by Arthur W. Mitchell, who presided. Mitchell said he accepted the presidency of the league because compelled to remove his son from the junior class at Howard and send him to Michigan university, at the request of his mother, a Howard alumnae by reason of "intolerable conditions at the university. He gave his resignation greet, that he had been compelled to take up the Howard collegiate situation with Southern senators. He charged the university administration with having unanticipated most capable professors, and with loss of respect of faculty, student, students and the alumnal of President Durkez as the only remedy to the situation. "Loyalty to the university means hostility to the administration," was the "burden of an address by Naval H. Thomas, which was cheered by an overflow audience. Thomas denounced what he termed the "hand-picking" of Alumni Secretary, Emory B. Smith by President Durkee, and publication of a magazine, "The University Alumnus," in the name of that body over its protest. He charged the university administration with wastage of funds and cited figures to show $21,000 yearly expenditures in propaganda favorable to the administration. The story of a recent trip to Chicago, and an alumni campaign carried on in the District of Representative Martin B. Madden, chairman of the committee that handles the university appropriations in Congress, Armand R. Scott, Communications Armand R. Scott, from Issue H. Nutter, of Atlantic City, and from Thomas Dyett, of Brooklyn, stunting inability to be present, address the meeting. Dr. Miller, the principal speaker, stated that the university administration has just issued a bulletin in alleging that he, the recently elected head of the general alumni, is a "red" and a "bolsevist." He said that during the world war he preached that Negroes should not except for full citizenship rights and that the classification as a pacifist. By the reason that he was termed a "red" he said, Dr. Durkee was a "klansman." He classified himself as the "mildest and most sedate graduate of Howard University, except. Will tam H. Houston, former member of the Board of Education." He spoke of overtures made to him by the alumni secretary appointed by Dr. Durkee, announced his refusal to join Greek letter societies or accept degrees, and challenged Emory B. Smith to the platform to refute his statements. Smith declined to make answer. Continuing, he charged Dr. Durkee with being "temperamentally unfit for the university presidency, unamenable to . . . reason, resentful of control, a man who will take cognizance of his own pleasure and enjoy a career over private thought of university which demands them to refute public statements, and insults them with epithets when they fail to do so." He demanded removal of Smith as alumni secretary, and the Rev. Jesse Moorland as trustee. Resolutions were brought in by a committee consisting of the Rev W. D. Jarvis, George A. Parker and Thomas Frazier. The Welfare League imbored the demand of the alumni association for the resignation of Dr. Durkee, denounced him for sassimism, offered to the university campus of the college strike, charged him with the dismissal of distinguished scholars from university fessorships and with general departure from the ideals of the founders of the institution. The resolutions were unanimously adopted. By Robert P. Edwards Associated, Negro Press Hammonton, N. J., Dr. Ernest Rob inson.

One of the most active workers in freeing slaves; he was chairman of $ and secretary of the eastern brande of the Underground Railroad. His many ingenious schemes such as placing the fugitives in boxes and cases, disguising men in female attire, secreting in old corners in steamers, teaching them to use white-follicled, etc., proved of exceptional value in adding the slaves to freedom after years he wrote a book "The Underground Railroad."

C., Aug. 5 William Jennings Brians, three times the Democratic candidate for President, has "gone to his father's" whoever or whatever they may be. There has been wide comment on the sudden passing of Bryan in the town of Dayton, Tennessee, the scene of his latest and last trumpth. There has also been comment on a coincidence of the passing of Col. Bryan with that of the passing of President Harding, both far away from their homes in the midst of popular occasions. Perhaps they did, but certainly few of their friends, thought they were, leaving their homes for the last time when they went on their respective journeys one to Alaska, the other to Dayton to defend the Creation of Man. The writer was in the Union Station here in Washington, when President Harding had his Alaskan tour. He had seen, Warren Harding, on many occasions, but there seemed to be something in the air that had never before been noticed. There was very little enthusiasm, and that quiet President Harding, surrounded by police officers, and officials, who form a triangle, walked slowly, as he moved through the General New. The President gave a brief recognition bowing to the writer which has been cherished for personal reasons. There were many photographs of the President and Mrs. Harding, taken from the observation platform of the private car of the special train, on which three weeks late, Mrs. Harding returned to Washington cold in death – and this same writer was there, and thinking of the departure. **Sees Bryan Last in Cleveland** Bryan was last time William Jennings Bryan was seen, except one, was in Cleveland, Ohio, during the Republican National Convention, when Calvin Coolidge was acclaimed the candidate for president. The other time was during a trip West and our train was passing through Harrisburg, Pa., and incidentally looking out of the Pullman, there was William Jennings Bryan, sitting in a chair car, writing with, great earnestness. He was probably New York bound. There was no excitement about him on the car, but there was always excitement and interest when Bryan went about in public. He was a man of great individual force, who discovered him, self, and was discovered, in Chicago in 1896 when he made his inspired crown of Thorns and Cross of Gold speech, which nominated him, on a 16 to 17 platform, for President by the On all of the occasions he has been seen and heard, by the writer, it was in Cleveland that he was shaken by the hand for the first time, and a few words in conversation exchanged. He was democratic and capital, there. He had the bearing of a great actor—Sir Henry Irving. Bryan was a great actor, above all other things. In the Chicago event, he discovered his power to sway, the masses; and, although defeated miserably by William McKinley in the election, during the campaign, he discovered the power to "sell himself" to the masses—the gallant man he held onto until he slept the night away waking. Bryan was a little more than a demogug, but in the eyes of Colored America, like Woodrow Wilson, he will ever be little less than a hypocrite. He had beautiful words that could be phrased to sound like music, to Colored America they were as "sounding brass and a tinkling cymbal." For Colored America they lacked the tone of sincerity. During all of his extended political career, William Jennings Bryan, with all of his vaunted Christianity, never lifted his voice or used his trenchant pen in half of the one-tenth Sunkissed section of the Nation; there is record, however, of his position of defending the place." It cannot be regarded as a "defensive" spirit, the Jesus Christ whom Jesus allways defended so frequently. A New Day Has Dawned In National Politics A new day has dawned in national politics. The old things have passed away. Most of the old men have passed away, practically all of those who are left behind are too feeble to function. National politics from new on will be handled by new faces and new forces—Republicans, Democrats and what not. These new forces will meet a new Colored American, North, South, East and West. These troops will bring about new achievement. As this journalistic observer looks over the henceforth men will be met as men, and then men will be met as men, and dealt with as such, at all stages of the game. The Glad Hand and Glad Promise, from all appearances, will away to the Fifty-Fifty understanding of fair play and justice. The best brains of white Americas will meet the best brains of Colored America on a plane of political equality—no more no less—while the shadows of the darker races of the world go heavier, and the tramp, tramp, tramp of the marching dark feet of the world sound louder and get closer to the throne of the tendency. Here in America 17,000,000 unkissed citizens, whose patriotism has been questioned will insist on standing on balance, counted along with the same track without regard to the artificial handicaps that have held away during the highted centuries. Colored America has proclaimed this. These shall be one nation and one nation in all. That kills the Kizzy. See Whitlock for special pipe fitting and plumbing work. Lindell 603.R. 4257 W.

TOPIC—How the Boy Timothy Began a Missionary. JUNIOR TOPIC—Sillas and Timothy Pursuit of Missionary. Become Missionaries. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC-Missionary Recruitment PROFESSOR AND ADULT TOPIC-Strengthening the Churches. 1. Contention Over John Mark (ch 15:36-41). 2. Paul's Proposal (v. 36). 1. Paul's Proposal (v. 36). This was to revist the scenes of their missionary endeavor, and see the state of the believers—what progress they were making in their Christian experience. This is a pattern for missionaries in all ages and countries. 2. Barnabas' Decomposition (v. 37). It was to take the human relation of these men was uncle and nephew, (Col. 4:10). 3. Paul's Opposition (v. 28). He was suspicious of Mark because of his desertion on the former journey (Acts 11:13). 4. Their Separation (vv. 30-41). Their contention was so sharp that they separated. It is impossible to absolutely determine which of these men was right. It is quite clear that both were sinecise. That John had gone wrong in turning back, could not be disputed. That one failure in a young Christian should condemn him for life is a wrong conclusion. It may be that nearness of relationship warped the judgment of Barnabas. On the other hand, this very fact may have given insight into Mark's nature which better qualified him to judge of his fitness than Paul. Then again, it is to be presumed that Paul, whom God was thrusting out to be the leader, had a clearer understanding of the matter. Besides it may be that this sternness of Paul was the very thing that brought Mark to his senses. Frequently the demands of justice make the man. This painful incident resulted in these devoted missionaries parting company, but God over-rules it to the wider extension of the work. Barnaas took Mari and sailed to Cyprus, and Paul chose Slias, and being recommended to the brethren unto the grace of God, went through Syria and Chicia confirming the churches. The fact that Paul went forth with the recommendation of the brethren may be a vindication of the rightness of his action. It is comforting to know that the frailties of men cannot thwart the purposes of God, nor even delay them. One of the most serious difficulties in Christian work at home and abroad, is to get Christians to work harmoniously together. 4. Finding Timothy (ch. 10:1-5) 1. The Place (v. 1). This was at the very place where Paul on his first journey had endured cruel stoning. The conversion of this young man may be regarded as the trutage of his testimony at that time. 2 His Parentage (v. 1). His mother was a believing Jewess, and his father a Greek. The mother's name was Eunice (H II. tm. 1.5). Timothy's unbeligned faith had passed from his grandmother Lois through Eunice to him. 2 His Character (v. 2). He had a good reputation in the church at Lystra and Ionium. This shows that the young man from the very first had followed in the footsteps of his spiritual father as a witness for Christ. 4. Timothy Circumcized (v. 3). Though Timothy had been carefully instructed in the Word of God by his mother and grandmother, the Mossie rite of circumcision had not been complied with. Doubtless this was because his father was a Gentile. In order to avoid offense among the Jews, Paul circumcled Timothy. This may seem strange in the light of the decision of the Jerusalem Council which set forth free from this rite, but it showed his willingness to conform to any reasonable demand for the sake of experience. However, when this not involved principle he was unyielding in the use of Titus, who he refused to have this done at the behest of Jubilee teachers. (§2:3, 5). 5. The Ministry of Paul and Timothy Through the Cities (vv. 1-5). It is likely that at this time Timothy was ordained (I Tim. 4:14). They went through the cities and delivered the decrees which had been ordained at the Jerusalem council (Aets 15:18:24). This resulted in the establishment of the churches in the faith, and the daily increase in the number of believers.

Published by Messrs. Harcourt, Brace & Co., 384 Madison Avenue, New York City. Price $3.00. By mail $3.60. This volume on the Philippines is disappointing. The writer has a mass of material, but she presents it without pretense of style and from the first page shows Philippine passionately blessed against Philippine rule. Her three hundred and fifty pages re- counts of terrible injustice practiced by the Philippines in power against their weaker compatriots. From cover to cover one hears only one side. Some of my readers may remember the book Dean Worcester brought out when America first learned that there were any Philippines a book reciting the terrible conditions existing in the islands under Spanish rule. The laborers were bled for faxes and when they could not pay were beaten and imprisoned. Then came the American occupation and we learned with satisfaction of the beginnings of peasant proletarianism and the securing of the trials' lands. Now, from Katherine Mayo's book, we see that under our Democratic administration, when the United States declare in self-government and when Burton Harrison was governor, conditions became as bad as those Worcester described. There was no change of masters, the cuckolds, or moneyed class of mixed Malay and Spanish blood, proving as heartless as the Spaniards. Here is the complaint (a most familiar one to us) of the Philippino reader: "Their complaint run that for over three years they had never been able to get a settlement from their landlords but had always been obliged to accept a running account, 'always favorable,' they said to the man who kept the books." They are thus hold as peons and as usury is practiced of the most barefaced description, their lot is well night hopeless. If one dares to fight a cacique, his property is seized and he is turned out with his family penniless. His landlord is his Judge at the court, and though there is a semblance of representative government, his landlord, by intimidation, is sent to the national legislature. As one reads one is forcibly reminded of the worst condition among the Southern Negroes. "According to our author, all this has come about since the Bishops got control of the government." The Americans, before the governor, were adulterating justice and building a rosarypens pennsity. Singe Wood has taken the government things are better, but they are still very bad. We are again again shown that Philippine in dependence means, not the improvement of conditions, but the tyrannical rule of the cacique who "has no occupation—politics; one industry—usury; one hobby—gambling." Under Harrison, money was squandered and every department of the government that had been built up by the Americans, retrograded. Health, education, scientific research, all were sacrificed. And it has been Governor Wood's difficult task to bring back something of efficiency again. The last chapters tell of the Sultan and Moros, batters of the Christian Philippinos. They seem to be a sturdy lot, without the vanity or the lack of humor, of their prosecutors. They turn to this country for justice. This is the picture drawn in this book. That it is biased is evident; but it is also evident that it has much furturable material in it. It makes one realize again that where tyranny has been long established the vote will not bring freedom. No granting of independence will make the peon a man. What will? This is what one enlightened, Philippine Governor thinks: That America should leave because she keeps the people off here. "As long as she remains here the tao, (pensant), who is slowly but steadily galping in courage and in character because of the protection and encouragement that America has given him, will not be allowed to rise in mobs and settle this thing with his bole." So something is to be settled and according to this authority independence should mean revolution. Associated Negro Press. In the city of Washington there was recently unveiled, in the presence of the President of the United States, and a distinguished gathering of other people, a monument dedicated to the Circult Rider. The monument represents the Gospel Bearer, seated on his little horse, with high colonial hat and cape, riding along the country road, reading his Bible. The Circult rider was the pioneer, "Man" so to speak, in early Meth. Episcopal Church in America, dystopian hills and valleys, streams and mountains, winter and summer in all kinds of weather. He had the vision of a great future; he was in earnest; he was unselfish, took his lot as he found it and "was a friend to man."

Stump; now and then he used his own name and much that he wrote without identity. There is hardly a Negro school in America, large or small, that he has not visited again and again leaving a cheerful impression for good with the young people, and sending out to the world, by printed word, a close-up of things going on. He attended all big conventions, especially religious conventions- and was splendidly successful in getting his "stories across" with the daily newspapers and often on the front page. Dr. L. K. Williams, president of the National Baptist Convention, and minister of the great Olivet Baptist Church, Chicago to which Charley Stewart belonged remarked that their organization was able to borrow $500,000 in the South and the men who loaned the money decided the reason they did it because the Front page paper in the Nashville Baptist meeting the convention session proved the merit of the body." Charley Stewart, Dr. Williams declared, achieved that. Stewart had wide contacts with influential whites, and used them to further the cause of the group. Charley Stewart, beginning life as a Baptist Minister, soon caught the spirit of journalism, and became a real disciple of the Fourth Estate. Contrary to the custom of some, Charley Stewart was "for" and never "against." He was for young people, he was for the church, business, newspapers, none too small; he was for the Associated Negro Association, the National Negro Association, and in all people and in all things. That is an attainment of which to be proud, and worthy of emulation. The missing of, Charley Stewart is felt by all those who knew him, and who have a sense of realization of the value of the printed word. There is not in newspaper life, at this time, another correspondent who touches the public in journalism. just as he did, the public is unique away with the daily press was quite as valuable as what he did for the racial press.

I Colored America, all departments of it, were as alive to the power of publicity as they are to the selfish luxuries of the automobile, radio and jazz music, there would be established a fund of $1,000,000 for the sole purpose of advancing the interest of the entire race, in every avenue and department, through publicity. Headquarters would be established in Chicago, New York and Washington, together with branches in other important centers. There would be no worthwhile achievement of the group that would be so to be publicized through publications that would use them. The stories would be backed up with pictures, still and moving, and Colored America would be sold to the world by the questioned power of the printing press. The lazy dollars of great organizations, now yielding five per cent, would yield fifty per cent in success. Some day the right ones will catch the real vision of the amazing magic of the tremendous power of the press—the printed word—and then Black America will step forth majestically and demand a place in the sun. We have the money, but lack of vision. Charley Stewart art had the vision. SNAKE OUTFIGHTS MONKEY Associated Negro Press. GRAFTON. W. Vat.

CO., 501 Broadway, New York (1-16-455) ELKDOM STIRRED BY WATKINS' PLATFORM WASHINGTON: D. C., Aug. 5.—Elkdom throughout the country has been stirred and is very much interested in the well-presented leaflets that have been sent from one end of the organization to the other, carrying the platform of T. B. Watkins, of Kansas City, Missouri, and the pronouncement of the Committee backing Mr. Watkins for the office of Grand Exalted Ruler. The Watkins platform is noted for its brevity, but carries issues of vital concern to Elks, according to the aggressive Watkins backers. Here is the platform: One, and not more than two years far Grand Exalted Ruler, the office of the Grand Exalted Ruler or Grand Lodge; the institution of a relief department; and the sponsoring of a national oratorial contest on the Constitution—of the United States. The first plank of the platform, of a short term for Grand Exalted Ruler, has become one of the outstanding subjects of the order, and will undoubtedly be contended for most dogged by the leaders when the lodge holds its convention in Richmond, Va., in August. It is regarded as forcing the issue directly with J. Finley Wilson, present G. E. K., and his adherents. Wilson is a candidate for a fourth term to the office, and there are those who feel that persecution in office is out of harmony with the real spirit of Eldum. Wilson was elected for the first true in Newark, N. J., after a long dendock, when he practically made the Promise to delegates backing other candidates, that he would accept the office for only one term of one year, and the next-year he would join in supporting another candidate: With this forces, forces backing George Weiblean of New York; William Stanton of Pittsburgh, and others, agreed to the deal. Weiblean had had only one year, and might have had a second, but for two incidents that were used by the opposition effectively. First; he sponsored an insurance arrangement, which had certain merit, but attained unpopular development; second, he had written a letter, it is claimed; stating that he would not make official visits to where there are "Jim Crow" cars. Stanton was what may be termed "heart sick" at his defeat, because he had been trying a number of years for the office, without success, having come up third of the regular channels. Weiblean who had been popular in many ways, took his defeat philosophic view. Wilson loved music of power. During the first year, Penny Wilson felt with his characteristic aggressiveness, felt in his confidence in "Power." So when the custode of met in Chicago, he had laid a political foundation so deep that not even the Elk stalwarts could effect him. The Chicago convention was made spectacular by the efforts to elect W. C. Howell, of New York, or Major R. K. Jackson of Chicago. Howell went after the place in a big way, backed by heavy money, but could not reach Last year in Pittsburgh. Wilson practically had a walk away. This year, however, he is destined to meet real combat in Richmond. There are those high in the order who say Wilson cannot be elected again, and the candidate will be a judge. The badge will be spilled under Wilson has established many bolts, but it is claimed that subject of "economy" has been little thought of in directing the work. In the circular containing the Watkins platform, his committee issues a statement including the following: "It is apparent to all that Elkdom is the most potent force in America today among fraternal bodies. The intent possibilities are so varied and potential that to allow them to lie dormant is to take a backward step. Its virility must be encouraged, its power developed and its activities broadened. The work of the Grand Lodge must show more interest in the man back home, and to him, the power behind the throne. It must be clearly demonstrated that he is the direct beneficiary of our annual gatherings, for it is he that fools the bills, "Elkdom can point with pleasure and pride to its galaxy of Past Grand Exalted Rulers, all of whom have served the order worthily and well; yet thwould have been impossible but for the limited tenure of office. And to no one thing can Elkdom attribute its remarkable growth and development than to this wise provision. "Economy is the spirit of the hour, and besides it is good business." No order can render the greatest possible service to its members that does not practice conservation along financial lines, and in no place is there greater call for conservation than in our fraternal organizations; for the money directed through these channels is a sure chance to be spent only where the greatest can come to the greatest numbers. The committee follows: Rev. Wm. H. Peck, Dr. Wm. H. Houston, Arthur Pullem, Ralph Chiton, John X. Brown, E. R. Hon, C. H. Callaway, Geo.' V. Golden, Dr. W. H. Bruce, Rev. D. A. Holmes, Dr. C.

R.—The mole has long been a course of considerable humiliation to those among us who have been so inflicted but I have known cases where they have been considered an object of beauty. You should really consult a skin specialist, but since you have tried to do so without success, we will offer a simple remedy which will eradicate these little pests without injury if you follow the following instructions. These are usually considered congenital outgrowths of the skin and are sometimes referred to as mother marks. The little theory growths which penetrate the moles are the hairs growing through the mole and since the mole is an unnatural condition, these hairs are very sensitive. The simplest forms of treatment for the kind of mole that is causing you so much worry is, accomplished by making a very strong solution of potassium fusus with one part of water. Roll a bit of cotton on a toothpick and apply this solution to the moles being careful not to touch the healthy skin. In the course of a few minutes the mole will be converted into a gelatulous mass which becomes transparent and later dries up until it appears as a black scab. This scab will dry up and will eventually fall off. Moles removed in this manner very solidum return. Miss Jessica - I answered the very same question in these columns a short time ago but since you failed to see it and the complaint is such a common one among our people, I will answer it again. Greasy and itching faces and skin is usually due to some inner irregularity and while we can try outside treatment, it is not permanent unless the real seat of the trouble is reached in the course of our treatment. You must stop the eating of fats and heavy meats. We should regulate our diets to suit our occupations and since your duties are very light and you engage in no strenuous exercises, it is only natural that the calories of food, and especially fats, will accumulate. These extra calories which are not used up by the body find exit through the pores of the body and those that are unable to make exit in that manner, turn into unhealthy fat. The virtues of eating too much fat are usually inactive and pepless and perspire too freely. This perspiration is always very great. Under nourished person is often troubled with a dry hard skin which of colds is caused by the excessive fats in their daily diet. Accompanying this inner treatment with regular visits to a good beauty doctor and take regular treatments for this condition. After you have been given a good massage with a greaseless cream, ask her to apply a good astringent to close the pores. You might also apply ice to the face, ice is the best astringent we know and if chopped up and placed in a cotton cloth, with a few drops of which hazel dropped on it, the face will feel cool and will lose its greasely appearance.
