Y. COURT BUILDING Man Enraged at Court Summons For Wife Beating Shoots Spouse in Corridor WIFE BEATER TURNS KILLER Murderer Killed as He Opens Fire on Detectives Sent by Magistrate (K. N. F. Service.) New York, Aug. 16.—Maddened with jealousy and cocaine, Norman Roberts, 27, of 204 West 143d street, shot and killed his beautiful young wife, Nellie, in the corridor of the Washington Heights court, Thursday morning. The murderer was in turn fatally wounded by bullets Patrolmen Enoch Parsons, Francis J. Quigley and George Donelly, fired into his body and died soon after the Columbus hospital. Family Trouble Cause. Family trouble was the immediate cause of the shooting. Roberts had been served a summons to appear to answer a charge of wife-bateing. He was in court early and had been standing at the window watching the passersby in the street. When Mrs. Roberts, leading her five-year-old kirl Norma, appeared at the head of the steps, Roberts advanced to meet her and demanded roughly: "What do you mean by bringing me here?" "Norman," she replied, "I want no more trouble with you." Roberts thereupon made a dive for his hip pocket. Mrs. Roberts caught his hand instantly and held it down but not before he had drawn the 44 automatic. He began shooting at her legs. His hand once on the trigger he kept it there. As the first shot took effect in the lower part of her body, she sank lower and lower until a bullet finally pierced her heart. Then she fell lifeless on the tiling. Detectives Open Fire. Court had just opened and at the sound of the shooting Magistrate Simpson ordered the patrolmen to see what was the matter. They arrived in time to see Mrs. Roberts fall. Roberts, it seemed had planned to kill himself but, at the sight of the officers with their levelled revolvers he opened fire on them. One of his two remaining shots was all that he succeeded in firing for the next instant he crumpled to the floor under a fusilade of bullets from the guns of the officers. The little daughter that the dead woman had been leading had a narrow escape. Thanks to the presence of mind of Mrs. Eva Hoffman, 34 West 135th street, the little one was snatched from the mother at the first shot. The pair had been married six years and had been separated several times, on account of the way Roberts beat her. The dead man is the son of a Trenton minister and is the brother of Needham Roberts( who won distinction in the war. Roberts it seemed, had planned to kill himself, also. This fact is borne out by a letter found in his pocket in which he stated he couldn't stand things any longer. CHARITY CARD PARTY IS DECLARED SUCCESS The president and members of the Charity Sewing Circle wish to thank the many friends who patronized the card party given last Wednesday at Pioneer hall for the benefit of charity.

Arrangements are being made for a charity ball in the near future which we promise will be the largest and most fashionable affair of the season. Watch for the date. Mrs. Estella Wiley. President REVOKE LICENSE OF DISCRIMINATING CAFE (Crusader Service.) Paris, August 11—The police have withdrawn the all-night license of the Montmartre cabaret, whose manager was charged recently by Prince Hajjo Travalou Houenou with convince in an attack on him by white Americans who objected to his presence in the cafe. It was charged by the prince, who is a nephew of the King of Dahomey, that the manager expelled him and a man he colored, from the establishment because of objections by some of the patrons to the presence of colored people. Minnesota Legion Sends Resolution On Tuskegee To National Body IN THE APPEAL AN LEA Minnesota Legion On Tuskegee Motor Party Is Number 10,000 On Register Of Minneapolis Auto Club The distinction of being No. 10,000 on the register of the town house of the Minneapolis Automobile club fell to the David N. Crostwaite motor party which arrived in Minneapolis from Kansas City, Mo., and Marshalltown, Ia., Sunday night. Mr. Crostwaite registered Tuesday morning. The party consists of David N. Crostwaite, research engineer with a large engineering company in Iowa; Mrs. David N. Crostwaite, his mother, and Miss Ann Crostwaite, his sister, a teacher in Sumner high school, St. Louis. They are the guests of Miss L. O. Smith, 3905 Fifth avenue, S. KU KLUX PURCHASES VALPARISO UNIVERSITY Creed, Color, or Religion Not to Bar Students, New Owners Announce Indianapolis, Aug. 15. Negotiations have been completed for the taking over of Valparaiso university, located at Valparaiso, Ind., by the Ku Klux Klan organization, it was announced here tonight by Milton Elrod, editor of the Fiery Cross, official publication of the Klan. The university, which is one of the oldest educational institutions in the country, will be called the National university, Mr. Elrod said. The purchase price was announced as $250,000, which represents an amount equal to the indebtedness of the institution. Five hundred thousand dollars will be spent immediately for improvements of the university buildings, and in addition an endowment of another $500,000 will be established, according to Mr. Elrod, who added the school would be strictly non-sectarian. The institution will run along the same lines as heretofore and will be open to all persons meeting the educational requirements, regardless of race, color or religion, it was said. UNMASKED MOBS FORCE GEORGIANS TO ARMS Machine Guns, Pistols, and Shot Guns Kept at Doors and Macon, Ga., Aug. 14.—It is every fellow for himself in this part of Georgia today. Because of the recent recurrence of kidnapings and floggings by unmasked mobs, individual "crackers" are reverting to the ancient custom of toting hardware. Almost overnight much of the effect of years of "brother love" education has been wiped out. Some months ago the country was startled by flogging sprees in Georgia. They have just broken out again. Within the last few days four men have been whipped and repeated attempts have been made to kidnap and flog Tom Thomas and wife colored caretakers at the Georgia Training School for Boys at Milledgeville. Governor Walker is preparing a state investigation of these outrages but the individual Georgian is putting most of his faith in his own marksmanship. Shotguns Repose by Windows. More men are toting pistols in Georgia today than in many years. Sawed-off shotguns repose near the windows of scores of homes in Macon and Milledgeville. At the training school for boys a veteran of the World War is crouching over a machine gun ready to act whenever the mob sees fit to carry out its threat to kidnap the Thomases and dynamite the building. The feeling seems to be that something tragic is imminent. Nobody knows when the unknown mob may repeat its recent outrage when half a dozen autos, loaded with unmasked men, stopped at Ollie Perry's store, seized the tubercular proprietor and his clerk, Gus Roberts, carried them soundly. Perry was indicted on a bootlegging charge but not exposed, livelily and extend trial. Macon folks are grateful to the governor, who has offered handsome rewards for the arrest of the gangsters, but they will not be pacifists on the strength of his plans. They are carrying something on the hip, the contents of which are not spirituous, yet lethal. Minnesota Historical Society THE A ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS AGUE E Sends Resolution To National Body EXPECT ATTEN THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.. SATURDAY. AUGUST 18, 1923 Text Calls for Carrying Out of Government's Original Plan for Colored Personnel; Wire Sent to President by Women. Among the resolutions endorsed by the Minnesota American Legion at the state convention in Faribault last week was one dealing with the Tuskegee hospital situation. The resolution, which was forwarded to the national executive committee, reads as follows: "That in as much as the federal government has found it necessary to place colored veterans in a separate hospital in order that they may obtain proper attention; "Be it resolved, That the federal government should carry out its original plan and place a complete colored personnel of doctors and nurses in the 'Veterans' hospital at Tuskegee. Ala. "However, should this appear impracticable, then be it further resolved, that a suitable location for the hospital for colored veterans be found where the government can carry out its original plan." The resolution was framed and originally introduced to the Fourth District convention by Atty. Geo. W Hamilton, commander of Leslie Lawrence post. Assurance was given Mr. Hamilton at Faribault by Alvin Owley, national commander, that some action would be taken by the national body. A committee has already been appointed to investigate and report on the matter, Mr. Owley said. WOMEN'S CLUBS SEND TELEGRAM TO COOLIDGE Everywoman Progressive council, a local women's club has sent the following telegram to President Coolidge on the Tuskegee hospital: Calvin Coolidge, President, Washington, D. C.: The following representative organizations of white women of St. Paul, Minn., urge that you carry out the wise and just determination of our late lamented President Harding to appoint colored superintendent, physicians and nurses to man and operate the Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee Institute: Mrs. Cordenia A. Severance, honorary president, Women's Republican club of Ramsey县; Woman's Welfare League; Y. M. C. A. Department of Religious Instruction; Fourth District Federated clubs; Lincoln Women's Republican club; Minnesota Business Women's association. (Signed) Everywoman Progressive Council. Mrs. W. T. Francis, president of the Everywoman club, who wired Mrs. T. G. Winter, national officer of the Federated clubs, asking her aid and endorsement, received a reply from Mr. Winter saying that she would do everything in her power to help the request. As Mrs. Winter is a national figure and a personal friend of the Coolidges it is felt that her influence will be of great aid. N. A. A. C. P. BRANCHES GUARD CIVIL RIGHTS A report of civil rights activities of a number of branches was made public today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, showing wide-spread vigilance in guarding the rights of colored citizens. The reports show that the following are some of the cases under way: Cleveland, O.: The N. A. A. C. P. is investigating the shooting of a woman in the theft of an automobile. A resolution of protest has been introduced in the city council and is in the hands of the mayor. Detroit, Mich.: The Legal Redress committee is investigating the case of a colored man discriminated against in the local railroad post office. Waterloo, Ia.: The case of a young colored boy from the South, shot by an officer after jumping from a freight train is under investigation by the Legal Redress committee. Portland, Ore.: The branch is working to convict participants in a near-lynching that occurred recently about 15 miles from Portland. BUSINESS DELEGATES UNABLE TO ATTEND Owen Howell and Fred D. McCracken, elected as delegates to the National Business league meeting in Hot Springs, were unable to go because of the pressure of their business, but they sent telegrams of greeting to the convention on behalf of the St. Paul branch. As a preliminary to the second annual business league exhibition and style show which will be held in November, officers of the business league are negotiating with the Union Hall association for the renting of the live building. If this cannot be arranged the league will have to secure another hall, for indications are that the attendance and exhibits will far outnumber those of last year when crowds were turned away two nights.

A pageant entitled "The Awakening," written by Mary White Ovington, will be staged by the junior branch of the association here. Under the direction of Prof. Morrison the large chorus, which is to sing at the two great mass meetings in the Second Baptist church and Kansas City's monster convention hall is being whipped into form Expect Large Attendance. In addition to the speakers previously announced, the governors of Kansas and Missouri and the mayors of Kansas City, Kan., and Kansas City, Mo., have accepted invitations to address the conference.

Va.; Cleveland, O.; Omaha, Neb.; Mumford, Tex.; Great Falls, Mont.; Denver, Colo.; Wilmington, Del.; Rome, Ga.; Yoakman, Tex.; Chicago, Philadelphia, Jersey City and other localities. The N. A. A. C. P. again urges all persons attending the conference to notify the national office in order that all may be comfortably housed ad entertained; and also to ASK FOR CERTIFICATE when purchasing railroad tickets. PROTEST HOSPITAL COMPROMISETOHINES Letter Asks General to Keep Late President's Promise on Staff New York, Aug. 16—Upon receipt of the report that Director General Hines of the Veterans' Bureau had "compromised" with a white committee from Alabama, offering to appoint a white doctor as head off Tuskegee Hospital for Colored Veterans, and two white assistants, the remainder of the staff to be colored, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People at once wrote a sharp letter of protest. The letter, which is signed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N.A. A. C. P., inquires whether it is the intention of the Veterans' Bureau to fulfil President Harding's promise that the hospital would be manned entirely by a colored staff. The letter reads in part as follows: "On behalf of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People I am writing to ascertain if this report is correct. We are especially anxious to secure this provisional fact of the fact that the late President Harding stated through his secretary in a letter to this association dated April 28: 'It is the plan of the director of the Veterans' Bureau, with the approval of the President, to man this institution completely with a colored personnel.' "We would like to know what is to be the action of the Veterans' Bureau in view of the definite promise made by Mr. Harding that we may inform those interested in this question whether or not the promise of the late President Harding is to be carried out." Silent Parade. Colored Man Now Owns Restaurant In Which He Was Once Head Chef J. A. Alexander Has Come Out of the Kitchen to Be Proprietor of Northfield's Finest Eating Place; Does Large Business. Rising from chef in a small restaurant to the position of proprietor of one of the finest restaurants in southern Minnesota in the short space of one year is the story of J. A. Alexander, proprietor of the Alexander cafe, Northfield, Minn. A year ago Mr. Alexander began work as chef of the Decline cafe in Northfield. Several months later he purchased the cafe from the owners who wanted to get out of the business. In slightly more than six months he has built such an establishment and done such a volume of business that he is now one of the respected and prosperous citizens of the busy little college town of Northfield. The main dining room of the Alexander cafe has a seating capacity of 140 and is kept immaculate. A chop suey room on the second floor is capable of caring for 80 diners. This room is equipped with Chinese tables inlaid with ivory. Mr. Alexander does a big business the year around. In the winter months the students at St. Olaf and Cafleton colleges keep him busy. The summer months bring heavy trade because of the fact that Northfield is on the paved Jefferson highway which carries thousands of tourists to and from the Twin Cities and points in Iowa, Missouri and Eastern points. It is not the policy of the management to discriminate against either white or colored. Both white and colored waitresses are employed. Mr. Alexander himself is a staunch opponent of discrimination. "If I could not serve my own people with the same courtesy and thoroughness with which I serve my white patrons, I would close up my restaurant," he told The Appeal reporter. Colored Mutt And Jeff, In Chase, Tie Up Subway Service Pair Throws Express Train In to Panic; Elude Cops and Motorman (Crusader Service.) New York, Aug. 16—John Thomas, subway agent on the southbound platform of the 125th Street station in Lenox avenue, counting his cash at 7:30 o'clock last night, heard yells and then saw a short and a tall colored man tumble down the stairs. The short one was leading and ran past the change booth and vaulted over the turnstile. "Hey, where's your money," shouted Thomas. "Got no time to answer foolish questions," yelled the short man as he ran to the northern end of the platform and leaped to the tracks. The tall man all jumped over the crossbar to the northbound rails as a Bronx express came thunderling in. The motorman saw them and jammed on the emergency brakes, jostling the passengers from their seats and into each other's arms. Fearing the worst, the motorman sprang to the rails and peered under the train. But pursued and pursuer were not there. A telephone call was sent in to the power house and the "juice" was cut off. Policemen arrived. The passengers, trembling and white faced, piled out on the platform. One man fainted and three women went into hysteria, as the result of the excitement caused by the sudden stopping of the train. Trains were stalled all along the route, police swept the tracks with searchlights, but found no trace of the colored Mutt and Jeff who had caused all the excitement. After an hour's tie-up, the search was given up, and service resumed. It is thought the colored Mutt and Jeff pair ran to the next station and the street. Thomas said the tall one threatened to "run the short one rugged." C. B. SLEMP IS NAMED PRESIDENT'S SECRETARY Washington, D. C., Aug. 14 (Special)—Campbell Bascom Slemp, former congressman from Virginia, well known in national politics as a Southern Republican leader, has been appointed secretary to the President, it was announced at the White House today. Mr. Slemp succeeds George B. Christian, Jr., who tendered his resignation immediately following President Harding's funeral. The appointment occasioned considerable surprise in Washington as it had been predicted generally that Mr. Coolidge would select Edward T. Clark, his secretary as vice president. Announcement of the appointment of Mr. Slemp came after he had a long conference with the President this afternoon. It was later announced that Mr. Clark would serve as the President's personal secretary.

Hall, prominent in St. Paul church and welfare circles, has been offered the executive secretaryship of the Louisville Urban league, it became known last week. Mr. Hall has just returned from Louisville where he went for conferences on the offer at the invitation and expense of the Family Welfare association of that city. For more than 15 years Mr. Hall has been active in welfare work in St. Paul and is in intimate touch with the work of the organized welfare societies of the city as well as with business and professional men who are in positions to aid colored people in various ways. In one of the boom years of the war period, The Helpers, a welfare organization of which he is an officer, placed a payroll of more than $200,000 in the plants in and about the Twin Cities. Mr. Hall is at present a clerk in the county auditor's office in the city hall. He has not announced any decision on the Louisville offer. OHIO BRANCH WINS NEW TRIAL IN RIGHTS CASE The Troy (Ohio) branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has won a victory in a civil rights case being fought for Gentry Peters, a colored man who claimed he had been ejected because of his color from an opera house under the management of Harry W. Kress. Mr. Peters sued for $500 damages. Attorney Sully Jaymes, retained by the N. A. A. C. P. to fight the case for Mr. Peters, after an unfavorable verdict from a jury carried the case from the Miami county common pleas court, to the appellate court, where the judgment of the lower court had erred in excluding some of Mr. Peter's testimony and remanded the case for a new trial. Colored People In Harding Parade (K. N. F. Service.) Washington, D.

While in Louisville he has established a central employment bureau for colored people, a travelers' aid for colored people at railroad stations, increased industrial opportunity thru co-operation with the Federal and State employment bureaus, caused the appointment of an inspector of sanitation, and was instrumental in the naming of a colored policewoman. An office will be opened as soon as possible and work begun here at once, Mr. Carter said. Approval of the budget of the Urban league is held under advisement by the budget committee of the Community Chest-pending the reception of other budgets and a checking of all requests against the probable subscription to the Chest. The budget was recommended with the endorsement of the St. Paul Association. 50 Hurt When Mob And Klan Clash In Ohio Spectacular Battle Staged on Streets of Steubenville After Election; One Man Near Death Death From Wounds. Steubenville, Ohio, Aug. 16.—One man is near death and 50 are injured as a result of a spectacular battle on the streets here last night between 3,000 citizens and 100 members of the Ku Klux Klan. The fighting is said to have been an outgrowth of Tuesday's city primary election in which four Klan candidates were successful. The mob of citizens attacked the Klansmen as they were coming out of a meeting hall shortly before midnight. Darwin L. Gibson, said to have been watching the melee, was shot and is not expected to live. The Klansmen caused a stir when they drove into town from Wierton, W. Va. They were in a caravan of 25 automobiles and carried illuminated crosses. The procession went direct to the Klansmen place. A crowd soon gathered outside the hall and began heckling the Klansmen as they came out. The clash followed. Several members of the mob are said to have had firearms, but they were armed largely with stones and clubs. Police succeeded in rounding up the Klansmen and escorting most of them across the river into West Virginia. A few members were forced to stay behind because of injuries. Two men are held in connection with the booting. Police said they were needed. WEEK'S RECORD OF HAPPENINGS IN MINNESOTA'S CAPITAL.

(Official Seal) CEO, J. BIES, Auditor Ramsey County, Minnesota By: Silas E. Foreman, Deputy GREAT NORTHERN OPERATING AND EQUIPMENT COST ADVANCES All the work that you do, all the work that everybody does, consists in moving from point to point yourself and in moving objects from one point to another. This is all that a railroad does. You know that it costs you something to do your own work. Do not forget that it costs the railroad immeasurably more to do its work, which is also your work, and without which the greater part of your labor and expense would be lost. In traveling on a completely equipped train with dining, parlor and sleeping car service, the facilities are the same as in high class hotels. The cost to the traveler is immensely less. Every item in the provision for both passenger and freight service costs more than it did. You travel over a mile of railroad track in a minute or two. This mile of track, exclusive of the grade and right of way, which cost $15,000 in 1913 now costs $25,000. Here is a comparative list of the cost of Great Northern equipment ten years ago with the cost of similar equipment now: Taxes have increased in these same ten years over 100 per cent. This makes a formidable addition to the operating expense of every railroad. But at the same time railroad freight and passenger rates have increased only about 40 per cent. For everything we have, food, shelter, clothing, and transportation, we must pay. Transportation has made this country what it is, and if it is impaired the whole country suffers disaster. It is worth thinking about as a matter of self-interest as well as a matter of justice that the service is being rendered, under cost conditions most unfavorable to the carrier and growing yearly more difficult, at a price to the public so little over that of ten years ago. Take these facts into consideration whenever you think or talk about railroad rates. Talk No. 6 SATURDAY.

COSTS OF GREAT NORTHERN JUMP St. Paul, Aug. 13.—Transportation of the superior grade required to meet the needs and demands of the traveling and shipping public costs the Great Northern railway today more than double what it did ten years ago, while the increase in rev- enue for the use of these greatly im- proved facilities has been far less, it is emphasized in a statement by Chairman Louis W. Hill of the board of directors. Official reports disclose that the increase in the prices which the Great Northern must pay now for passenger and freight equipment and the cost of operation is from 100 to 150 per cent greater than a de- cade ago. In discussing this handicap under which the railroad is laboring, Chair- man Hill called attention to the pub- lic need for adequate transportation, pointing out that all work involves the moving of persons or objects and that the factor of cost always is dominant. Because of the necessity for transportation, individual effort would be futile without the railroad and therefore it is important for the public to know what it costs to pro- vide this service, he said. “The railway traveler today enjoys the advantages of a high class hotel,” said Chairman Hill, “Trains are fully equipped with’ dining, parlor and sleeping car with superior ap- pointments such as will meet the de- mands of the traveling public. Nat- urally this is expensive, yet the cost to the traveler is far less than the charges of the hotel with correspond- ing facilities. “Every item in the provision of both passenger and freight service costs far more than it did a few years ago. Passenger and freight shipments speed over a mile of rail- toad track in a minute or two. Un- doubtedly few persons know that this mile of track, exclusive of the grade and right-of-way, which cost $15,000 in 1913 now costs $25,000." Other costs of railway service have in- ereased as much more. “Locomotives which cost $24,000 in 1913 now cost $54,000. Sleeping car costs have increased from $16,000 to $36,000 each; dining cars from $14,- 0000 to $31,500; day coaches from $9,000 to $20,250; refrigerator cars from $1,200 to $2,700; ore cars from $800 to” $1,800; box cars from $800 to $1,800 and flat cars from $650 to $1,462. “Taxes have increased more than 100 per cent during the same ten years and are a big item of operat- ing expense of every railroad. Yet at the same time railroad freight and passnger rates paid by the public for this much more costly service have increased only about 40 per cent. “It is obvious that we must pay for everything we have, for food, shelter, clothing and transportation. Production and distribution of these and other essentials require trans- portation, which made possible the development of our country. And, when transportation is impaired, the whole country suffers. As a matter of self-interest alone, as well as a matter of justice, this is worthy of deep thought. When there is talk of railroad rates, it is to the public in- terest to give careful consideration to the fact that this service is being given, under cost conditions most unfavorable to the carrier and grow- ing more dificult every year, at, a price to the public so little over that of ten years ago.” St. Paul Steam Laundry “The Sanitary Laundry” Works: 289-291 Rice Street near Summit Branch Office: 443 Broadway St. ‘W.
