"To jail with him!" "Beat him to a pulp!" "Liar!" "Thlef!" "Thleff!" Shouts and rioting in the midst of which the above epithets were hurled back and forth by the delegates to the National Baptist convention at Chicago, Tuesday, caused that gathering to break up in disorder and brought a score of policemen to the hall where many of the noisest were hustled away. The trouble followed the serving of a court injunction on the presiding officer and the latter's hasty retreat from the scene with scores of his followers through a rear door. This is the word that comes from Chicago. On Wednesday there had been an incipient riot, but instead of patching up their differences the factional fight grew worse. Dr. E. C. Morris, president of the organization for twenty years and leader of one of the battling factions, was interrupted in his opening address by Deputy Sheriff Harry Fleming, who mounted the platform just when he was an swerving the charge that he receives a salary of $1,500 a year, and served an injunction on him. The document had been obtained from Judge F. A Smith of the Circuit court by R. H Boyd and Edwin Jones, leaders of the opposing faction. It enjoined Morris --- THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silent protest makes co The human race ha test. Had no voice injustice, ignorance quisition yet would guillotines decide The few who dar speak again to ri many.—Ella Wheel To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. from speaking or taking any active part in the meeting or from going on with the proceedings of the convention. The injunction alleged that the organization is not a chartered body. After Morris, in the confusion that followed the dramatic interruption of his speech, had slipped through a side door pandemonium reigned on the convention floor, delegates rising on their chairs and hurling epithets at each other, while theres climbed on the platform shrieking maledictions on their opponents. Lieut. Michael Clohesy and a squad of men from the 22d street police station grasped the noisest men and hustled them—yelling at the top of their lungs—to the street. In the expectation of trouble unformed officers had been stationed at the doors Wednesday, with orders to admit no one not able to produce proper credentials. In the wild scene that followed the injunction service and the withdrawal of the president the policemen battled against the mob for five minutes or more before semblance of order was restored. When comparative quiet reigned—that is, when chairs and tables were not being overturned and violent impressions were not being hurried back and forth, Rev. Walker of Augusta, Ga., mounted the platform and at-attempt to bring the warring factions to reason. Out on the street a crowd of colored people collected, excitedly discussing the points at issue and occasionally threatening violence to each other. Officers passed among them, ordering them to move on. In the convention hall about 2,000 persons remained, listening with only occasional interruptions to the pacificist speech that was made. Even as late as an hour or more after the crisis the police once in a while had to dive into the audience and drag from it a loudly protesting delegate. THE APPEAL has no particular interest in either of the warring factions, but feels keenly the disgrace which the convention riot has imposed upon the colored people of the country. This is a good time for the Baptist convention to cut out the annual meetings and resolve to meet once in four years as the Methodists do in their general conferences. Several thousand delegates attend the Baptist meetings and there is no reason why the brethren should practically throw away from $5,000 to $100,000 on annual meetings which are not worth the money. Meet once in four years and elimin ate the rioting. NATIONAL HOME A lot of misguided colored people in Virginia are holding meetings in the interest of a "National Old Colored Folks Home" an 1 tdis said that an appropriation of $500,000 will be asked from Congress. No colored person with any self respect ought to take part in any such movement. Congress should never be asked to specifically draw the color line by appropriating money for any scheme which separates colored Americans from other Americans. Be Americans not colored beggars. MANY JEWISH ENEMIES The fact that three Jews have bought the rights for the state of Massachusetts for the production of "The Birth of the Nation," the infamous and false film and that Jewish capitalists are exploiting the photo-play all over the country should cause the colored people to see that many of their most bitter enemies are Jews. THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the ma scientious discharg to stand alone; th ant, intolerant ju demn, the counter may be averted, friends grow cold, duty done shall be applause of the w I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Summer. ce when we should awards out of men. has climbed on probeen raised against e and lust, the in- serve the law, and our least disputes. he must speak and right the wrongs of er Wilcox. A Jewish attorney general was responsible for the Maryland disfranchment law recently declared unconstitutional. A Jewish Senator and a Jewish Congressman have become notorious because of their tirades against the race. In many localities Jews aided the passage of the segregation laws. A Jew worth many millions is giving thousands of dollars to aid in the establishment of jimcrow Y. M. C. A's—is actually aiding the alleged Christians in their efforts to segregate their believers of darker hue. All this is queer work for a people who have been oppressed for thousands of years and who are still massacred in many parts of Europe. All Jews are not enemies of the colored people but those who have power and money seem to take a special delight in swiping the colored man and also—gathering in the coin. JEWS FEAR NEW EXILE. Palestine will not be given to the Jews, but will be annexed to Egypt should the allies win in the war. This was the assertion made recently at the Winona Bible Conference by the Rev. S. B. Robold a Christian Jew of Toronto who has lived in Palestine for eighteen years "It would be suicide for England to give Palestine to the Jews to establish a nation," said Dr Robold. "It must please 100,000,000 Mohammedans, 'to whom Palestine is sacred. "The Jews will receive no benefit from the war, no matter who wins. If Russia loses it will need a scapegoat and it will be the Jews. Russia will say that the Jews betrayed it. Likewise if Germany loses the Jews will be blamed. "This war means the exile of the Jews. It is a striking coincidence that on Aug. 1, 1914, the Jewish ninth of A B., when war was declared by Germany to the British ambassador, Sir E. Goshen, a Jew, the anniversary of the destruction of the temple by Nebuchadnezzar and the exile of the Jews, and the anniversary of the exile of the Jews by Titus, were observed. History repeats itself." Dr. Robold said the Jew is not wanted anywhere, but is playing the most amazing role in all nations at war with each other. "In England there are five Jews in the cabinet, five Jewish lords, six privy councilors, sixteen barons, fourteen knights, eighteen members of parliament and Lord Reading, the lord chief justice of England, was one time plain Rufus Isaacs. "Herr Ballin in Germany, a Jew, has charge of the transportation of all troops, and leaders in the reichstag are Jews." He said the Russian Jews cannot be transplanted, that the colonization schemes have failed. "Philanthropists have spent one thousand million dollars in their efforts to transplant Jews from Russia into Palestine'ne, the United States and other countries," he said. "A short time ago they checked up after having transplanted 2,000,000 Jews in thirty years, and discovered there were at present 800,000 more Jews in Russia than when they started. "The Russian Jews must find their salvation in Russia." KEEP OUT OF HAITI. The United States government has no right to meddle with the internal affairs of any nation however small. If the people chose to kill each other, it is their own affair. n who in the con- ge of his duty dares the world, with ignor- odgment, may con- ances of relatives and the hearts of but the sense of sweeter than the world, the counten- WORLD'S RECORDS MAY BE SHATTERED FORD The ultimatum to Haiti is the act of a big bully nation to a plucky little republic which has maintained its independence through more than a century against tremendous odds. All this talk about the brutality of the Haitians is pure rot and is largely because of their color. Conditions in Haiti are no worse than in many other small republics in the Western Hemisphere. Before bullying the little country WORLD'S RECORDS Special Auto Racing Program at Minnesota State Fair, Sept. 6 to 11, Will Present Many of World's Greatest Drivers— Handsome Prizes Offered For Making of New Marks THE automobile racing program at the Minnesota State Fair, September 6 to 11, will attract to Hamline some of the best drivers in the business. The handsome purses offered are stimulating big interest in the event, and many entries will result. Some famous cars, well known in the racing world, will be brought from different parts of the country to compete in the time trials for world's records, for which big premiums are offered in case former marks are shattered. The Minnesota State Fair track holds the world's 100-mile circular dirt track record, and is believed to be fast enough to win other laurels. RACES FILL WELL Entries For Early Closing Events Indicate Fast Fields. Entries for the four early closing events at the Minnesota State Fair, September 6 to 11, have closed with one of the largest lists of horses and colts ever named. Some exceedingly fast harness races are looked for as a result of this excellent entry, as many of the best animals in the west are to be started. The classic $3,000 St. Paul purse for 2:13 pacers is to be a hummer. A list of forty-eight hoges has been entered, which is an exceedingly big one. The $3,000 Minneapolis purse for 2:16 trotters is only a bit behind in number of entries, and a dozen favorites might be picked to bring home the bacon. The 3-year-old trot for $500 and 3-year-old pace for $600 are well filled, and some colts of exceptional breeding will fight it out to the last heat. The entire speed program is to be held on the first five days of the Fair, purses aggregating $24,500 being at stake. Every effort has been made to supplement the educational program of the Fair with an extraordinary amusement program, and it is felt that the speed program will be even better than in former years. HOME BREEDERS FAVORED Attempt Made by Minnesota State Fair to Aid Local Industry. Minnesota exhibitors of cattle, horses and sheep are favored in the distribution of premium money by the Minnesota State Fair, September 6 to 11. Outside breeders do not have as good a chance of winning prizes. This special inducement is offered to encourage the breeding of more good horses, cattle and sheep in Minnesota. Premium money offered for these three kinds of animals is divided into two general parts. One part is offered in the "open" classes, in which animals from anywhere may compete. The other part is offered in the "Minnesota" classes, in which only animals from Minnesota can compete. Thus Minnesota breeders not only have as good a chance to win money in the "open" classes as any other breeders but they also have an opportunity to win money in the "Minnesota" classes where competition is much less keen. As a result of this handicap, Minnesota breeders of sheep, cattle, and horses own farm animals considerably inferior to those exhibited by outside breeders can win quite a bit more prize money. Especially is this true when there happens to be very little competition in the "Minnesota" classes. There have been instances when Minnesota breeders unable to score a single victory in the "open" classes obtained more money than most any of the exhibitors from outside the state. A general appreciation of this advantage, according to livestock experts, is certain to result in a bigger Minnesota exhibit of sheep, horses and cattle at the Minnesota State Fair this fall than at any previous time. BIG SHORTHORN PRIZES. Large Premiums Offered for Cattle at Minnesota State Fair. Breeders of Shorthorn cattle in Minnesota are eligible to premiums amounting to $2,250, at the Minnesota State Fair, September 6 to 11. So important does the American Shorthorn Breeder's association consider this show that it is offering $750 in prizes. All entries must be made by August 12. A remarkably good exhibit of Minnesota Shorthorns is expected. the United States ought to find some way of eliminating the lawlessness and burnings and mob murders which are so numerous within our own borders. More outrages have been committed in Europe in a single day than have occurred in Haiti in a hundred years but the fear of the big guns of the powers has prevented Uncle Sam from butting in. Let Haiti solve her own problems. MAY BE SHATTERED BIG PROGRAM FOR WOMEN SCHEDULED Comfort of Mothers and Children to Be Well Taken Care of at Minnesota State Fair. So anxious are those in charge of the Minnesota State Fair, September 6 to 11, to provide for the comfort of women and children that extraordinary effort will be made to entertain them each day of the Fair. Mrs. Berta Dahl Laws, of Appleton, Minn., has been placed in charge of a special department dealing with that problem Arrangement will be made to enable mothers with small children to check them at a central nursery. A kindergarten in care of specialists will be provided for older children, where they may play while their parents are looking at the exhibits. Rest Cottage will be equipped to care for women who desire to rest. An emergency hospital, in care of the medical corps, First Field Artillery, Minnesota National Guard, will be operated as in time of war, and accidents or sudden sickness will be looked after immediately. Model Farm House Farm women will be especially interested in the model farm house which is to be erected in the next two months for use at the Fair. It is to be designed after the plan which took first prize in the model farm home contest conducted by the State Art Society a year ago. It will be fully equipped with every device recommended for modern farm homes. Later on other buildings will be constructed to make the whole unit a model community. A women's program for each day of the Fair is being prepared by Mrs. Laws. SCHOOLS BUSY Records to Be Broken in School Exhibits Department at Fair. More counties will exhibit work done by their rural, graded, consolidated, and high schools at the Minnesota State Fair, September 6 to 11, than in any previous year, according to George F. Howard, of the Minnesota Agricultural College, in charge. He declares that the school exhibits will excel anything of the kind ever held in this country. Thousands of little fingers, and big fingers, too, are getting exhibits of sewing, cooking, weaving, carpentry, and farm products together for the big Fair display. Specially interesting will be the consolidated school exhibit, since this type of a school plays a more prominent part in Minnesota than in any other state. Product maps, language booklets, and samples of penmanship will be shown in big numbers. Last year 3,000 individual entries were made in the School Exhibits Department, which was nearly twice as many as in 1913. Mr. Howard expects that over 5,000 entries will be received this year. BIG MACHINERY SHOW. Exceptional Outlook for Immense Display at Minnesota State Fair. Visitors at the Minnesota State Fair machinery show, September 6 to 11, which covers over seventy acres and is the largest in the world, will find several large new concrete structures awaiting their inspection. There are indications of unusual interest among machinery exhibitors this year, according to W. W. Sivrigh, of Hutchinson, Minn., superintendent, and it is believed that the number of exhibitors will exceed 312, the previous high mark. The fact that there is no charge for outside space, and only a nominal charge of 5 cents a square foot for inside space, makes it possible to put on quite a large exhibit at small cost. FAIR PREMIUMS INCREASE. Steady Growth in Money Awarded for Fair Exhibits Shown. The amount of premiums paid for live stock, farm products, and other educational exhibits at the Minnesota State Fair has steadily increased in the last few years. The total premiums awarded in the last five years, exclusive of the speed department, were as follows: 1910, $35,910; 1911, $45,065; 1912, $48,922; 1913, $48,985; 1914, $53,244. ONE THE MINNESOTA STATE FAIR SEPT. 6th TO 11th, 1915. TWO GOPHER INFORMATION GOPHER VARIETY MINN. STATE FAIR STATE INSTITUTION THREE FOUR GOPHER RERATION GOPHER INSPIRATION FROM THE FOUR CORNERS TO THE CENTER. ```markdown ``` IN ADDITION TO THE MANY EDUCATIONAL FEATURES at the Minnesota State Fair, Sept. 6 to 11, for which nearly $85,000 in premiums are given, several of the most noted features in the Entertainment World will be offered. Art Smith, King of the Air, the sensation of the Frisco Exposition for ten weeks, will give performances day and night. An auto race program featuring the world's greatest speed demons, a horse racing program for $24,500 in purses, a 50-mile endurance motorcycle race, auto polo by original American and English teams, a dozen bands and orchestras, three stages of continuous vaudeville before the Grandstand afternoon and evening, these and many other features will supplement the educational program. Each night a great scenic city, stormed by air fleets and shell fire, will be destroyed in "The War of Nations." It is a program you should not miss. LET'S GO! CATTLE SHOW SHATTERS ALL RECORDS. A Entry List for Four Breeds Exceeds All Former Records. The largest entry list ever received by any State Fair cattle show in America has been obtained by the Minnesota State Fair, Sept. 6 to 11, insuring one of the greatest exhibits ever held anywhere. A stupendous effort is being exerted to care for the large number of animals expected. Previous entry records have been broken for Short Horn, Hereford, Red Polled, and Ayrshire cattle. The Jersey show is far larger than the one of a year ago. Other breeds barely fall below previous marks. In all it will be the largest combined showing of beef and dairy cattle ever held anywhere. Over 1,100 animals have been entered. Big Livestock Market. No doubt the remarkable success of the cattle show this year is due to the interest which breeders are taking in the great public livestock market, which it is the desire of the fair to promote. Breeders have been urged to attend the Minnesota State Fair, because of the opportunity afforded of selling surplus stock to farmers in the Northwest. Farmers have been urged to attend the fair to buy this pure-bred stock to be used in grading up home herds. The Horse Show is to be remarkably successful this year, for the same reasons. Nearly twice as many local breeders have entered herds at Excellent Chance for Big Winning at Minnesota State Fair. Owners of Hereford cattle in Minnesota will be able to compete for prizes aggregating $1,516 at the Minnesota State Fair, September 6 to 11. The "White Faces," as they are often called, are so well adapted to a range or cut-over country that they are be coming quite popular in this state. The American Hereford Cattle club offers $500 in prizes. Entries close August 12. the Minnesota fair as formerly. In addition there have been large entries from all parts of the country, and the leading draft breeds will make an excellent showing. Swine and Sheep. The Swine and Sheep Shows will both break nearly all previous records. The pig-club contest, in which fully fifty pigs will be shown, and the Poland-China Futurity, in which twenty-three herds will be exhibited, are principal reasons for the greater number of hogs. All space in the sheep barns has been disposed of. PARCEL POST EXPLAINED Large Exhibit to Be Shown at Minnesota State Fair, Sept. 6 to 11. Of what importance is the parcel post to the farmer and the city person? Though it may be important how can anyone take advantage of it? Such are some of the perplexing questions which will be solved by a large parcel post exhibit at the Minnesota State Fair, Sept. 6 to 11, which has just been arranged by the Twin City postoffice departments. It is to be placed in the Agricultural building in a very prominent place. Principal emphasis will be placed upon the producer's problems. All kinds of retainers for fruit, eggs, dressed poultry, butter and other farm products will be shown. A specialist in charge will answer any questions asked, and explain to anyone how the parcel post may be taken advantage of. CUP FOR BEST HOG8 Beautiful Trophy Offered for Fineest Herd of Berkshires at Fair. A beautiful silver trophy is to be given at the Minnesota State Fair, September 6 to 11, to the Minnesota exhibitor of the best herd of Berkshire hogs, consisting of one boar and three sows. The American Berkshire association offers the cup. Animals farrowed after September 1, 1914, are eligible to compete. Considerable valyry for this honor is predicted. ST.

Church was the scene of an attraction that should have packed the house, if the people appreciate talent and merit, but they evidently do not, and was not more than half full, to their aid, it said. The entertainment was given under the auspices of the King's Daughters Charity Club. The program was a given as follows: Song, "America," congregation; invocation, Mrs. Martha Wilson; Welcome address, Mrs. Florence L. Duckett; piano, (a) "La Fleuree" op. 157, No. 2 J. Raff, (b) "Imbromptu" op. 28, No. 23, Reinhold, Miss Sara May Talbert, of the New England Conservatory of Music; violin, "Souvenir de Weinarski-W. E. Haesche; encore, Concerto No. 2—Seltz, Master Leon Abby, Minneapolis; piano, (a) "Bv the Lobe of Geneva"—Frank Bendall, The Grove of Jule" (b) Romance in D. Flat, orsus 24, No. 9—Nean Sibelas, Miss Sara May Talbert; vocal, "I Hear My Calling Me"—H. Hartford; enorc, "My Calling Me"—Moon, Miss Albreta C. Pallis; call of the Hour; Mrs. Martha B. Talbert; vice president of the National Association of Colored Women; piano, "Concert Fude" in C Sharp, Major,—McDowell, Miss Sara May Talbert; benediction, Rev. H. P. Jones. Every number on the program was most excellent and especially so the address of Mrs. Talbert who gave some facts and figures that caused every one to sit up and take notice. She told of the formation of the National Association 24 years ago and of its many activities and of the work of Mrs. Jane Globe of Minneapolis and Mrs. T. H. Lyles of this city subsequently. She told of the fact that the women have 28 federated states that were represented by 413 delegates at the meeting at Wilburstone representing 50,000 members, and that but for the lack of connection there would be a million. She smoke at length of the look of conversation and concentrated among us generally. She contrasted our methods with those of the Jews who always look out for and patronize and cooperate with their own. "The strength of the Jew is much greater than that of the Negro because the Jew has concentrated his forces." She said "Too much cannot be said of the Colored newspaper men as many unfavorable things are said of us through the white press, and that these newspapermen through their organs fight our battles for us and bring our cause properly before the people. Enough credit will never be given to the editors of our newspapers who are fighting for us all the time, day in and day out. Such men as T. Thomas Fortune, Harry C. Smith, your own townsman J. Q. Adams, who was among the first to enter the newspaper field." She spoke of the percentage of criminality among us and what the women's clubs had done to reduce it, and said: "You have right here in St. Paul young men and women who need to be lifted up. "In the early days when the woman was brought before Christ for adultery, he said to her accusers, 'He that is without sin, cast the first stone,' And there was no one left but Christ and the woman. He did not rebuke her, but simply said, 'Arise, and go in peace and sin no more.' The Negroes in St. Paul and Minneapolis are just the same as the Negroes in Buford, so any other city in the United States, so any other city in the guilty of throwing stones, do ston it. It is a lesson we cannot afford to forget a this is one of the tremendou forces that we must use in this struggle." "The Call of the Hour is for a single standard of morality. We have decided that a young man must not ruin a girl in Philadelphia and go to another town and be introduced to the best girl in that town, while the girl he ruined is thrown aside." "We must not be selfish. When we pray, we pray for ourselves, or our own families, and care nothing for the family of the other fellow. Nineteen years ago when the National Association them they drew about them a great big circle. Our club comprises a great big circle. The club woman must be so broad that she can go out and bring any boy or girl into the church, that through her efforts some one can be saved. The call of the Hour is for strong women to come into our National Association, the women of America are going to get a fringe, and we Negro women will get it right with them, so we must be prepared for it. What the Jew has done, the Negro can do by concentration. "Twenty-five years ago the Necro could buy property anywhere he chose but today it is almost impossible for him to do so, as every white person will object, to keep him out of a certain neighborhood. "The National Association is asking for the Concentrated effort) of the women in Minnesota. The women who are presidents of the State and city clubs are building bridges. The white people are building bridges for their boys and girls, and we must build them for our boys and girls. The club women in these cities need your help. The Call of the Hour is for more bridge builders, then we will be able to show the white women that we have grasped the situation and are trying to solve the problem." The admirable address was punctured with deserved applause throughout. Of course the address by Mrs. Duckett was excellent as was the viewing of Master Abby, the vocalization of Miss Bell and the playing of Miss Talbert. Mrs. Sensabaugh was accompanist for Master Abby and Miss Talbert for Miss Bell. Mrs. Coulman Hicks, who had the general management of the lecture and recital, desires to thank all who assisted in making the affair a success. Especially the ladies of the escort committee who sold the largest number of tickets, and to those who took part in the program. Studio of T. W.

PAUL RUG AND KAG CARPET FACTORY LUDWIG STOPPEL, Prop. "Beer a Food." Professor Charles Frederick Chand- "Beer a Food." Professor Charles Frederick Chandler of Columbia University, a well known chemist, declares that beer is the best brain food. In a recent address he said: "Beer is a beverage prepared from barley, water, hops and food. American beer contains 6 per cent of the beer only 3 to 4 per cent alcohol and lecithin, which is real brain food. Beer and bread both made from cereals; beer with water and is solid; beer with more water and is liquid. Yeast converts both into palatable and dissolved food. Both contain alcohol, not intoxicating in ordinary quantities and not of the foods that is free from bacteria. It is appetizing and alds digestion. I don't believe there is any beer made in the Unified States that is what you call adulterated. It may be misbranded, but not adulterated. If the productionists drive beer from the milk, they will derive a large part of the population of a wholesome article of food."

The at: traction has been booked only after weeks of negotiations. One aeroplane will attempt to de. stroy a fortified city in the enemy's country by circling above it and drop- ping bombs upon it. The other ma- chine will detend the city, and try to put an end to the invader by aero- plane gun-ire and bombs. Instantly the battle will open. The crack of rifles and the roar of cannon from below, where troops have gathered to assist the home aeroplane, will accen- tuate the battle in the air. Rush Headon. For a while each ship will attempt to outmaneuver the other. All kinds of thrilling dips and dives will be taken, just as they take place in the World War across the Atlantic in the great air battles that are being fought.

His daring rolls from side to side, and his successive loops within a thousand feet of the ground, all fill one with wonder. He has turned as many as thirty loops in sue- cession. Nor are they the ordinary loops, for he flops over and over like a falling teat. At night his performance is espe- cially brilliant. Rising in the dark- ness he disappears completely trom view. ‘Then suddenly he flashes on a series of colored lights, appearing green, yellow. and red against the inky background. ‘Towards the close of his evening flight he loops the loop in a blaze of fireworks. ‘The story of Art Smith's life reads like.a chapter from a dime novel.
