Loving Cup To Mayor Hubbard Committee Of Colored Citizens Presents Trophy In Appreciation Of Square Deal Policy. A Fearies Exponent of. Right and justice. An Uncompromising Defender of the Colored Race. We fear only to do wrong. Loving Committee Of Colored Trophy In Appreciation Policy. "Tenderest Memory of The Election to Me." Says Retiring Mayor. The only token or expression of appreciation for his faithful service to the people of Tulsa during the past two years of worry and patriotic sacrifices that Mayor Charles H. Hubbard has received so far has come from the Colored people of this city in the shape of a $45.00 silver loving cup which was presented to him last Monday afternoon by a committee of Colored citizens. The Mayor was visibly touched by this expression of appreciation for his unselfish service to the people of Tulsa and said it would always be cheerished as the tenderest recollection of his administrator and of the recent election. "This is the only token of any kind I have received," he said, "and Malone Slayer Gets 26 Years Malone Slayer Gets 26 Years Jury in District Court Finds Man Guilty of Manslaughter and Fixes Punishment. Imprisonment of 26 years in the state penitentiary on a charge of manslaughter, was the verdict returned by the jury in district court yesterday morning before which Spurgeon Pool, a Negro, was tried Wednesday. John Malone, a Negro, was shot to death May 11, 1919, on North Elwood avenue by Pool. The defendant claimed self defense, testifying that a few hours before the shooting Malone at the point of a revolver, forced Pool to give up money won in a crap game from Malone. The State, however, contended that while Malone may have recovered his money from Pool, the latter without doubt armed himself and upon meeting Malone, shot the latter to death without warning. WEAVER FAMILY ROOSE- VELTIAN IN TYPE Oklahoma Parents, Originally from Texas, Rear and Educate Twelve Children. (Star Feature Special). MUSKOGEE, Okla., Apr. 16.—The late illustrious and dearly beloved Theodore Roosevelt was a great American who believed in the purity and sacredness of home and family life. He alwayas called attention to those families were blessed with a large number of children, and made much over them. We, as a race, ought to be proud of strong and sturdy progenitors, who have brought forth children, who in their turn will help to people the earth with strong men and women. Our attention has been attracted to one well known and highly esteemed couple, who are the progenitors of a line of descendants who are noted for their sturdy physique and literary attainments. The couple referred to are the Rev. E. B. Weaver and his wife, Mrs. M. J. Sedberry Weaver. The Weavers are originally from Waco, Texas, but have lived in Muskogee a number of years. The Rev. Weaver is a minister of excellent reputation and long experience of the Baptist denomination, and though living in Muskogee has pastored a church in Texas. Through the practice of thrift, the --- THE TULSA STAR I want you to know that I appreciate it more than I am able to tell you. It is a sweet consolation to know that the many long days and nights of hard work and worry and personal sacrifices I have endured in my devotion to Tulsa and her people have not gone unnoticed and unappreciated. I shall always cherish this as the tenderest recollection of my administration and of the recent election." The cup was engraved with the following inscription: "From the Colored Citizens of Tulsa, Oklahoma, to Mayor Charles H. Hubbard, in appreciation of his life's motto, A Square Deal to Every One." The presentation committee were Dr. and Mrs, Charles B. Wickham, W. H. Phillips, J. G. McFall, J. T. Presley and A. J. Smitherman. Rev. and Mrs. Weaver have not only accumulated considerable property, but have also reared and provided a college education for twelve children, and a number of them through marriage have large families and are educating them. The descendants of the Weavers, many of whom are favorably known in educational and religious circles are: E. E. Weaver, principal Douglas School, Mrs. P, E. Powen, teacher M. T. H. S.; Rev. L. A. Weaver Texas; Dr. H. R. Weaver, Dentist; A. M. Weaver, tailor; Miss Irma Weaver, teacher; Ollie and Harold, students at Howard University and Miss Berenice Weaver, student at Bishop's College, Texas. Also Mrs. Dottie Byas and Leroy Weaver, of Louisville, Ky. The promising prospect for all these is such that there is every reason to believe that this generation and coming generation will have every reason for rising and calling these original progenitors, thrice blessed. TULLAHASSEE'S POST- MASTER DIES Mr. A. J. Mason, Leading Merchant and Planter Terminates Useful Career. (Star News Service). TULLAHASSEE, Apr. 16.—The citizens of this little Negro community have not yet fully reconciled themselves to their recent loss, through death of Mr. A. J. Mason, who in life was probably the foremost representative of the Race in Wagoner County, Mr. Mason died on March 31 last and his body was taken to Sneham, Texas, his birth place for burial on April 4. Mr. Mason was for many years the head and front of all commercial and civic enterprises in Tullahassee, and in spite of his many business connections he found time to materially aid and foster both educational and religious movements. He was associated with his brother in the conduct of a very large and complete country store and also served as Tullahassee's postmaster. Mason was the owner of considerable farm land and took great interest in agriculture. During the life of the late Hon. L. A. Bell of Wagoner, he and Mr. Mason were inseparable friends and interested in various enterprises. Mr. Mason is survived by his faithful wife, Mrs. Fair Mason, nee Shannon, four sisters and six brothers. He was a faithful and active member of the Baptist Church for many years and at the time of his death. He filled the position of postmaster here for many years and his face and figure will be missed for many a long day. Weekly Mail Edition TULSA, OKLAHOMA, SATURDAY, APRIL, 17, 1920. Tulsa To Get Mosaic Temple At a meeting of the Executive Board of the Mosaic Templars for the Oklahoma jurisdiction in this city Thursday it was unanimously decided to select Tulsa as the future home of the Mosaic Temple for Oklahoma and $100,000 is the snug sum voted for the construction of the building. Tulsa is expected to donate the site for this temple as an inducement or bonus for its location in this city. This is a splendid opportunity for Tulsa and it is believed that the business men of the city will gladly give a lot as a site for the structure if they are assured that work will start on the building as soon as practical after deed to the lot is executed. Members of the executive board attending Thursday's session were, Grand Master Wm. Ezell, Haskell; L. Higgenbotham, Miss Ethel Tucker and Hon. H. T. Walker, Muskogee; O. H. Bradley, Boley; Isaiah Warrior, Checotah, and Mrs. B. A. Nance of Okmulgee.

RACE RACE NOTES RACE NOTES Stargraphs Portraying Events of Interest to Our Group. In thirty state out of the total 48, contests have developed in selecting delegates to the National Republican Convention in June. These contests are due to the attempts made by the "Lily White" republicans in thirty states by conventions to shut their Colored brother off from representation. The time has arrived for all men, white or black, engaged in industry to unite for mutual protection. The Elevator Men's Union of New York draws no color line, and has pledged itself to stand by a square deal in employment of both races. At a monster mass meeting held at Arlington Hall, East Side, N. Y., last Monday, four thousand Colored elevator men lustily proclaimed their determination to stand or fall with the Union. A. M. Byrd, who served during the Roosevelt and Taft administrations as White House butler died last week at his home in Washington. Byrd was transferred to another job when Wilson took charge. Byrd was a native of Virginia and 37 years old at the time of his death. He had a wide circle of friends.

Probe Price Increase. End Of The World Is Predicted Again Our Deliquent Subscribers Will Please Remit Before Going Where We Have No Agents. (Star News Service). DETROIT, Mich. Apr. 16.—Another story predicting the end of the world has started the rounds of the press. This one originates in Detroit, and Mrs. Robert Timmons is the father, or rather the mother of the story. She says she will swear to the truthfulness of what she saw and found, on a stack of Bibles, and that she did not tamper with the egg she found in any shape or form. The prediction of the end of the world in five days, Mrs. Timmons declares she saw on outside of an egg she picked up immediately after it was laid by the hen. The following narrative tells Mrs. Timmons' version: "While Mrs. Robert Timmons, 94 Buena Vista avenue, Highland Park, was in her poultry house about noon Sunday, she picked up an egg which she vows was laid almost at that moment by one of her barred Plymouth Rock hens, and on that egg was the following inscription: 'THE END WILL COME AFTER FIVE DAYS.' The words were arranged in two columns, and between the columns a cross appears and on the side of the egg opposite the cross is a crown surmounted with a cross. The cross, crown and inscription are all raised slightly, as if the surface of the egg had been carved so as so leave them in relief. Except for the positive assurance given by Mrs. Timmons that she saw the egg laid one would say that the whole thing is the work of some joker who is handy with a knife. Employment in Washington City Schools is very desirable to many. Out of 189 applications for teacherships recently 54 were Colored. Those eligible after examination will be given probationary jobs. New York News item: Editor R. L. Vann, of the Pittsburg Courier, and J. S. Finley Wilson and Chas. E. Lane, of the Washington Eagle were visitors in New York over the week-end. Edward A. Johnson, Colored candidate in Harlem district, New York for delegate to the National Republican Convention at Chicago, was defeated by his white competitor; John J. Lyons. Johnson won in all the precincts where Colored voters predominated but fell down in precincts where the white republican vote was heavy. The whites thus defrauded the district of Colored representation. Miss Ethel Richardson, one of the Race's most talented musicians, died on March 26, last. She began her career at an early age, and dedicated her life to the study and interpretation of real true art of music. Her favorite selections for recitals were: "Ondine," "The Water Sprite" from Three Poems and "Pour Piano" by Ravel. She was a product of the New York School of Art and a former student of the celebrated Ethel Leginski. Our old friend "Pussyfoot" Johnson, who has been carrying on a "dry" campaign in England is on his way back and says "Ireland is going back on rum, and Scotland will be dry this fall." Johnson also declares America will never again be "wet." OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., Apr. 16.—Letters requesting that they present from their pulpits tomorrow, the plan of the Inter-church World Movement for raising a budget of $336,777,572, of which, $175,000,000 is to be paid this year, has been sent to all pastors of the thirty co operating denominations by Rev.

Alexander Howatt, leader of the miners of Kansas in the Coal Miners' Strike is still in the limelight life along with several others, is confined in jail at Girard, Kansas, for contempt of court. In an address he was permitted to make by the sheriff from the balcony of the jail, he referred to Governor Allen, as "skunk, tyrant and destroyer of organized labor." Governor Allen stands pat and says he will act first and talk afterwards, but that the law will be enforced at all hazards against riotous miners or any other rioters. Four women, Mrs. Henry Ridgley of Dover, Del.; Mrs. Charles B. Ames, Washington; Mrs. H.

BIXBY, OKLA, NOTES Our good Bishop N. C. Cleaces, D. D. and his conference certainly made no mistake in sending us our mellow hearted Christian and gospel preacher. He is a matchless church worker. He knows what to do and when to do it, what to say and when to say. He is growing very popular throughout the country with both white and Colored. We pulled off a great rally Sunday, April 11. The weather was bad and hindered us quite a bit. At 11 A. M. his text was: "What think ye of Christ? Whose son is He?" Oh, how our hearts did burn. We had five clubs in contest: W. M.

"We have before us, the task of raising for the co-operating denominations, not for the Interchurch World Movement, what at first, appears to be a gigantic sum, but it is what a survey of the whole world has shown to be necessary and it is known in advance, what is to become of every dollar raised. It is a plan for putting church finances absolutely, on a business basis." "Rough House" Ware Has Returned. William Ware, better known as as "Rough House" Ware, has returned after being away eight weeks, visiting in Missouri and Kansas. Ware is to meet "Topeka Jack Johnson" in Topeka, Kansas, April 22.

The sad news of the death of Mr. Charles Tremaine Wood of Parsons came as quite a shock to the Winfield people last week. Charles was born and reared in Winfield. He was a graduate of the Winfield High School and of the music department of Southwestern College.

ALBERT SMITHERMAN, Circulation Manager WHY THE NEGRO VOTED DEMOCRATIC AT TULSA. THE ELECTION RETURNS from Tulsa show that the Republic of Tulsa have swept the Democrats off of the map and that for the next 10 years in that city the G. O. P. will have full sway. But regardless of how the election went and what the results in city were, the truth remains that the majority of the Negroes VOTED DEMOCRATIC TICKET. THERE WAS A REASON FOR THIS—A REAL REASON. In the ago the Republicans had such an opportunity as now presents to Tulsa, and as soon as they were elected and went into office, succeeded to pass and enact such laws and class ordinances as a sign to the self-respecting black man of that city. SEGREGATE PUT IN FORCE and all of the minor offices that the former democratic regime had permitted Negroes to hold were swept out of the fields and there was a visible and positive reduction of the black man's citizenship status in that city. Precinct 23 of Tulsa city went Democratic last week for the reason the Negro had gone into the fields of reason with his vote. Negro is learning that a man may say he is a Republican and the populus and narrow in his ideas of justice and fairness. Mayor Hubbard was a Democrat, but under his administration Negro received a hearing. Under his administration black men were in charge of the election machinery in their own precincts, justice of the peace and as police officers. The city went to the house of establishing and maintaining a hospital for Negroes and any things that caused the black man to feel he had a part to share in his own town and country. We find no fault with Editor Smitherman and those of our own who went to the polls and registered their approval of a man who office, been fair and impartial to all classes. We must learn and the Tulsa returns show that the Negro is on the right track. In Oklahoma City, we of our group, have had the same difficulty which to deal. The Republican party has been implored to Race police protection, from within our own group. This was what the spineless Republican machine was unwilling or affair. There has been much knashing of teeth by the Republicans who since this was done and accomplished under a Democratic institution, for they realize now the mistake they made, and the patch is not discounting the fact that when the next election happens in this city, there will be a lot of folks who are going their back on the party of promises and face towards the men who afraid to do the things that their consciences tell them they do—Black Dispatch. THE ELECTION RETURNS from Tulsa show that the Republicans of Tulsa have swept the Democrats off of the map and that for the next few years in that city the G. O. P. will have full sway. But regardless of how the election went and what the results in its finality were, the truth remains that the majority of the Negroes VOTED THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET. THERE WAS A REASON FOR THIS—A REAL REASON. Some time ago the Republicans had such an opportunity as now presents itself in Tulsa, and as soon as they were elected and went into office, they proceeded to pass and enact such laws and class ordinances as were repugnant to the self-respecting black man of that city. SEGREGATION WAS PUT IN FORCE and all of the minor offices that the former democratic regime had permitted Negroes to hold were swept out of their hands and there was a visible and positive reduction of the black man's citizenship status in that city. Precinct 23 of Tulsa city went Democratic last week for the reason that the Negro had gone into the fields of reason with his vote. The Negro is learning that a man may say he is a Republican and then be vicious and narrow in his ideas of justice and fairness. Mayor Hubbard was a Democrat, but under his administration the Negro received a hearing. Under his administration black men were placed in charge of the election machinery in their own precincts acted as justice of the peace and as police officers. The city went to the expense of establishing and maintaining a hospital for Negroes and did many things that caused the black man to feel he had a part and a square deal in his own town and country. We find no fault with Editor Smitherman and those of our group who went to the polls and registered their approval of a man who had, in office, been fair and impartial to all classes. We must learn this lesson and the Tulsa returns show that the Negro is on the right trail. In Oklahoma City, we of our group, have had the same difficulty with which to deal. The Republican party has been implored to give the Race police protection, from within our own group. This was denied. But the moment that a Democratic mayor went into office he did what the spineless Republican machine was unwilling or afraid to do. There has been much knashing of teeth by the Republicans of this city since this was done and accomplished under a Democratic administration, for they realize now the mistake they made, and the Black Dispatch is not discounting the fact that when the next election develops in this city, there will be a lot of folks who are going to turn their back on the party of promises and face towards the men who are not afraid to do the things that their consciences tell them they ought to do—Black Dispatch. GIVING TO GOOD CAUSES. THERE IS NO CITY OR TOWN in Oklahoma that is as close imposed upon by public solicitors as Tulsa. Any public business in Tulsa will confirm this statement. Hardly a day passes at some kind of public solicitor calls upon the business men of Tulsa soliciting funds for one cause or another and the Tulsa man nearly always responds, sometimes giving to a wife, sometimes merely helping to swell the coffers of a sys-grafter who collects money in the puise of fostering some institution for the good of a certain class of people. Not one business men of Tulsa called upon to support our own charitable institutions, but solicitors from other parts of the State and from outside the State, some with worthy and some with fake institutions, and Tulsa business men in their desire to be phillantic made easy victims. There is no telling how much money Tulsa has given to propositions that looked good on paper, but was in fact unaffected. The Star intends to keep a closer tab on some of these propositions that concern our group and make a detailed report for our future. If money is being collected for the benefit of boys and girls—and it is—it ought to be turned over to an enclosed of trustees who would see to it that the money is put aside, instead of giving it to an individual who may or may inappropriate it. MR. LEROY EPPS, one of the Star readers in Los Angeles addressed a letter to the editor last week in which if it is the policy of this paper "to destroy the religion of forefathers?" the question having been suggested to Mr. the perusal of Mr. Hill's articles which appear weekly in paper. In reply to this question the editor desires to deny response for any of these articles. We have neither the ability nor delination to write such articles, we frankly confess. How like many of our readers, have given some time and those arguments Mr. Hill produces in his articles and we have more and more interested as the good common sense and his premises dawn upon us. We hope Mr. Epps will continue to read these articles from Hill's pen and that he will address all future questions—there be—to the writer. So far as the Star is concerned our policy is a consistent and not in any sense destructive. If we could claim that our having written any of these articles we would answer Mr. question further with the following interrogation, "which seemed to destroy the religion of our forefathers, or to please to destroy us?" THERE IS NO CITY OR TOWN in Oklahoma that is as much imposed upon by public solicitors as Tulsa. Any public business man in Tulsa will confirm this statement. Hardly a day passes but that some kind of public solicitor calls upon the business men of Tulsa soliciting funds for one cause or another and the Tulsa business man nearly always responds, sometime giving to a worthy cause, sometimes merely helping to swell the coffers of a systematic grafter who collects money in the guise of fostering some worthy institution for the good of a certain class of people. Not only are the business men of Tulsa called upon to support our own charitable institutions, but solicitors from other parts of the State and even from outside the State, some with worthy and some with fake propositions, and Tulsa business men in their desire to be phillantthropic are made easy victims. There is no telling how much money Tulsa has given to fake propositions that looked good on paper, but was in fact without foundation The Star intends to keep a closer tab on some of these propositions that concern our group and make a detailed report in the near future. If money is being collected for the benefit of our boys and girls—and it is—it ought to be turned over to an elected board of trustees who would see to it that the money is properly used, instead of giving it to an individual who may or may not misappropriate it. MR. LEROY EPPS, one of the Star readers in Los Angeles, California addressed a letter to the editor last week in which he asked if it is the policy of this paper "to destroy the religion of our forefathers?" the question having been suggested to Mr. Epps by the perusal of Mr. Hill's articles which appear weekly in this paper. In reply to this question the editor desires to deny responsibility for any of these articles. We have neither the ability nor the inclination to write such articles, we frankly confess. However, we like many of our readers, have given some time and thought to the arguments Mr. Hill produces in his articles and we have grown more and more interested as the good common sense and logic of his premises dawn upon us. We hope Mr. Epps will continue to read these articles from Mr. Hill's pen and that he will address all future questions—if any there be—to the writer. So far as the Star is concerned our policy is a constructive one and not in any sense destructive. If we could claim the honor for having written any of these articles we would answer Mr. Epps' question further with the following interrogation, "which seems the saner—to destroy the religion of our forefathers, or to allow the same to destroy us?"

Matters pertaining to the railroad strike were discussed. The cost of the railroad strike per day is $3,000,000 and the people are paying the bill. One account of the strike carried on by rebellious switchmen, the railroad yards are almost completely tied up, and out of operation. To supply the necessary labor for running trains, a call has been issued for volunteers, and men from all walks of life have offered their services. Several trains arrived at Grand Central Station from suburban towns inhabited by the wealthiest New Yorkers, and the engines had been fired by millionaires and their sons. Governor Lowden won in his home state, Illinois last Tuesday and hence was endorsed for president of the United States. In the primary Wood ran second, and Hoover third. Senator Thomas P. Gore in a speech delivered at Tulsa, Okla., declared his unalterable opposition to the proposition of the U. S. government commandeeing or taking control of the Osage Nation's oil supply for use of American Navy. Washington officials believe Russian radicals are stirring up trouble among railroad workers. On account of railroad strike, St. Louis faced coal shortage last week, and 10,000 men were forced to be idle at Toledo in Willys Overland Auto plant.

"I urge upon you to gather together the men and youths of your Race out on your circuits and rural charges generally and talk to them and preach to them against the committing of a certain crime, because it hurts the Race, disturbs the peace and harmony and quietness of the community and can only result in the ruin and certain death of the offender. By such a campaign of training and education let us hope that if the Negro is ever lynched it shall not be for the committal of that crime with which he is too often charged. "The Colored people should be proud of their record, not only in the Spanish-American war, but also in the Great War. Of you who have had this opportunity much will be expected. You will be looked upon by your people and I hope you will not be found wanting." General Pershing referred to the aims of the American Legion and expressed the hope that the Colored soldiers would associate themselves with those who will set high standards for all people.

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Apr. 17.—Bishop Charles Henry Phillips of Nashville, Tennessee, who presides over the Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana and California and all the Pacific slope conferences and has been delivering over a large gathering of his denomination at Lexington, Ky. Bishop Phillips is a bishop of the Colored Methodist Episcopal church. Speaking on the attack and murder of Geneva Hardman by William Lockett and "race relations," generally, he said among other things, "Lockett member of our Race who is to die in a very short time, has committed one of the most heinous crimes in criminal history. He deserves the unstinted condemnation of every member of the Race and the untimely death which is to be meted out to him. The Negro must quit committing that crime that will bring Lockett to the electric chair. "Let us learn from this incident that leaders of the Race must begin a campaign of education against to see what is being done by the young people of the Colored Race. I extend to you all the good wishes for the future." EVERY ONE APPEARS AFRAID OF EVERY ONE Former Secretary Franklin K. Lane Voices Sharp Criticism of Official Washington. (Star News Service). NEW YORK, N. Y., Apr. 17.—Franklin D. Lane, former Secretary of the Interior, who recently retired from the cabinet, has expressed causal criticism concerning the muddled conditions characterizing the conduct of governmental affairs at Washington. Coming from one whose record was most excellent and on account of his first hand knowledge of things his opinion is worthy of general interest and confidence. Secretary Lane says: "Washington is a combination of political caucus, drawing room and civil service bureau. "It contains statesmen who are politicians and politicians who are not statesmen. "It is poorly organized for the task that belongs to it. Fewer men of larger capacity would do the task better. Ability is not lacking but it is pressed to the point of paralysis because of a multitude of details and an unwillingness on the part of the great body of public servants to take responsibility. "Everyone seems to be afraid of everyone. The self-protective sense is developed abnormally, the creative sense atrophies. Trust, confidence, enthusiasm—these simple virtues of great business—are the ones most lacking in government organization. "As matters are now devised, there are too few in the Government work whose business it is to plan. Every man is held to details, to the narrower view, which comes too often to be the department view or some sort of parochial view. We need for the day that is here, and upon us, men have little to do but study the problems of the time and test their capacity at meeting them. "In a word, we need more opportunity for planning, engineering, statesmanship above, and more fixed authority and responsibility below." ACTRESS WHO PLAYED "TOPSY" IS DEAD Woman Who Made Part of "Topsy" Famous Lived to be 79. (Star News Service). WORCESTER, Mass., Apr. 16.—Mrs. Lillie E. Wilkinson, who had the distinction of making famous the part of "Topsy" in "Uucle Tom's Cabin" died here recently, aged 17. She was a native of England and up to the time of her retirement from the stage 38 years ago she played with several famous actors, including Edwin Booth. ROBBERY OF WARDROBE OR WINE CELLAR OVERLOOKED House Servants Being Scarce are Kept in Captivity and Allowed Great Privileges (Star News Service). NEW YORK, N. Y., Apr. 17. House servants are so scarce that in some parts o the country it is proposed to import women and girls from France to fill these jobs. The most flattering inducements are to be held out by agents who are to go to France showing photographs of their prospective homes, and promising victrolas, golf links and other forms of amusement for their special use and benefit. In New York an increase of 25 per cent in burglary insurance rates has been announced, and this raise has been made necessary because employers made timid by the great shortage of domestic workers, permit their servants to rob both their wardrobes and wine cellars. In some instances when a theft has occurred, employers even refuse to have their house servants questioned for fear of losing them. Made bold by this situation, dishonest servants are helping themselves to their employer's effects, such as wine, clothing and jewels. Servants are privileged characters in the homes of many wealthy New Yorkers and in some cases claims against indemnity companies rather than prosecute a guilty servant. In order to retain them, servants are virtually kept in captivity. One New York lawyer recently refused to allow his servants to be questioned regarding a $1,000 theft, saying: Don't go near the house. If the maids suspect you, they will leave." One investigator reported a case in which a young servant girl had, in two weeks, disposed of eight cases of champagne and eight cases of whiskey by holding wine parties in the kitchen for her friends and entertaining them with choice liquors from her employer's private stock. Although the owner knew he could not replace the missing beverages, he refused to prosecute. PAGE THREE Whole Soled, Half Soled Tulsans. The heavy down pour of rain lasting all through last Thursday was a source of discomfort to many Tulsans and a damper upon all kinds of business. It was practically impossible to navigate in some parts of Tulsa's Colored section and taxi men were the only ones to be found wearing cheerful smiles and contented features. Every rainstorm of this description brings to the minds of North Greenwood travelers, that there are many mud hole and crevasses which property owners with proper degree of Race pride and interest would cover with brick or cement, and thus convert North Greenwood into a "Great White Way" and thoroughfare creditable to any race.

Y., Apr. 17.—The other day Henry B. Thayer was selected by Henry B. Vail to. sue: eved him as president of the great American corporation known as the American Telephone and Telegraph company, ‘Thayer had had many years of experience in the elvetrical business, thus qualifying him for this high post of duty. But the one characteristic that particularly in terested former president Vail in ‘Thayer was that whenever any dif- ficult problem arose, or there was any hard nut to erack in an emer geney, Henry Thayer was the man to solve the riddle, While Thayer was a rich man’s son, yet his first job paid him only $10.00 per week. ‘This salary barely met his living ex- penses, and it is related of him that in order to get a summer suit he sold his winter suit and added a few dollars to complete the bargain, Mr. Thayer has recently given the youth ov America the benefit derived: by reading his experiences in rising from an humble station to the high- est position in one of the greatest and most far reaching corporations in the world, We quote a few para graphs as follows: “Don't think of yourself at all. Don't waste an hour of your time scheming or planning to get pro- motion, Don't worry about how big an increase in your salary you ean contrive to get—don't let your mind dwell on money at all if you can help it. Throw yourself, body, soul and spirit, into whatever you are doing Become so interested and so en- grossed in your tasks that you have neither time nor inclination to think about yourself or your prospects oF the posibility of a ‘raise.’ “Don't imagine for one momen that your superiors don't know whi you are doing or how valuable an employee yer are, Some fellows lave the impression that if they ar¢ in a very large organization {heir work is buried and that none of the besses has a chance to know” just what they are accomplishing, The trath is that in every organization, no matter how large or how small some one is taking notice of any em ployee who shows special ability “Take the Western Electric cont pany, of which L formerly was pre- sident. Every year we engaged a number of college graduates. They were put through a general course of training. Long before their per: iod of training was up the head of the engineering department or the sales manager or some other depart- ment head would come and say, ‘l want So-and-So into my — depart- ment’ Whether an employee is a college graduate or not he can make hiy work count so much that some- one higher up will want to get hold of him to take on responsibilities and shoulder some of the burdens. That is just the type of worker that every executive, every superintend ent, every department head is con- stantly on the lookout for, “Therefore, 1 would say to every berson anxious to geton in the world, ‘Forget’ yourself in your work. Lay yourself out to do every: thing possible for your employer, and your employeer in time will find that it will pay him to do everything pessible for you, If he sees, how- ever, that you are more concerned about yw own interests than about his, hat you are fussy, about wetting credit for every little or big thing you do, then you are apt to be passed by when a responsible job hs: to be filled?” GEORGIA REPUBLIC \NS PLAY FREEZE OUL GAME Colored and White Republicans Get Together By fa! .v Apart As Usual (Star News Service) ATLANTA, Ga., April *7.—An ef. fort by a few “Lily White” Repub hexns to steal the state convention fiom the regular Repuotican orga zatign, here recently, nearly resu’t ed in @ riot.

The crowd which had assembled outside the prison grew as the day wore on until it comprised 20,000 persons, among whom threatening demonstrations occurred. Three tanks and several armored cars, with a large force of police and military, were stationed about the structure. It was announced that the strike, which originally was intended as a one-day celebration, would continue until the prisoners were released. All shops, public houses and restaurants of Dublin are closed and the hotels' staffs quit. No tram cars or trains are running, except a few on the Great Northern Ireland railway. The Punchestown races have been postponed until later. The strike is not in effect in Belfast and the north of Ireland. In Dublin and through the west and south of Ireland, however, business is at a standstill. COMMUNITY BUYING SUG- GESTED TO COMBAT H. C. L The Time is Now for the Fisal Consumers to Get Together. (A. N. P. Service). Community buying is declared by many keen observers of the profiteering phase of the present food providing situation to be the surest means with which to reduce the prevailing high cost of living. There is much to be said in favor of this contention. It is more than a reasonable assumption to assert that if the retail dealers in necessary food commodities are able to pool their interests and buy and sell to the public at a better than fair profit that the public, if it would put itself to the trouble of maintaining an organization, could keep the unfair profits in the pockets of the final consumer. "How can the final consumer be induced to adopt and use co-operative buying plans?" is the question PAGE SJX Sale of Stylish Ap- and Children.

A surface analysis of the situation attached to the dissaving could be made and the plan successfully operated. This coupled with an ordinary exercise of common sense and even fairly good judgement would bring to any community a better than reasonable relief from the pressures of high costs ot living. Our Race stands in immediate and vital need of education in this direction. The after-situation of the recent war has made visible improvement in our economic relations to the other element in the nation. We must veritably, "make hay while the sun shines." Saving in the matter of expenditures is not alone necessary but it is imperative in whatever connection it relates to the cost of living among us. Community Paying, directed by accurate knowledge of current methods of successful business, must be practiced by our people. It means the cutting down of the cost of living and the consequent saving of great sums of money to the one who adopts the plan. Let us get our eyes open. N. A. A. C. P. ATLANTA CON- FERENCE PORTENTIOUS Noted Americans From All Sections Will Attend (A. N. P. Service). The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will hold its Eleventh Annual Conference in the city of Atlanta, Ga. This year is a forward step. We are convinced that the Conference will do much to strengthen the convictions of a growing element of southerners, that the perplexing social problem is nothing more or less, than a phase of the larger human problem that has ever been present among men. Selfishness, greed and the purpose of unrighteous power have been the chief agencies producing the social sickness of the world. The white south is mistaken in its conception of social duty. There is no substantial social value in a blind adherence to the traditions of the period that created and maintained the institution of chattel slavery. It is an assumption, pure and simple, which seeks to establish a worthwhile instance of superior social instinct, in the recollection of an inept and vicious maintenance of slave and master relations under any circumstances of social situa- THE TULSA STAR, Saturday, April 17, 1920 New and binding responsibilities have come to black and white alike. Lach must do its full part in the work of world social betterment. The sun knows no race. Time knows no race. Eternity knows no race.

Y., Apr. 15.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, in a statement just received says that as a direct result of conferences between representatives of the Colored Association of Railroad Employees and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People on the one hand, and the United States Railroad Administration, before the roads went back to private owners, and the Southern Railway System, on the other, Colored railway men have been granted an increase amounting to $12,525 monthly and back pay increases amounting to over $125,000. Colored Woman Inherits Fortune Colored Woman Inherits Fortune Wealthy Savannah Citizen Provides for His Colored Consort. (Stein News Service) (Star News Service). SAVANNAH, Ga., Apr. 16.—One of Savannah's leading white dailies, the Savannah Hawkeye, in a recent issue uncovered one of the thousands of skeletons in the closet of the South, which national women's suffrage is most likely to render impossible and unendurable in the future. An illustration of the hypocrisy of the South in the matter of social equality was given by the Hawkeye in printing the story of the death of a wealthy and influential citizen, brings to light one of the thousands of similar cases in the South. It says: "Dying as he had lived, with the Colored woman next to his heart, Mr. F. H. Chaplin, the wealthy Savannahian, left his entire estate to Bessie Lee, the Colored woman who had lived with him as his wife for 37 years! A son 35 years old, with a bunch of children, also survive Chaplin. His children pass as Colored in the community. Bessie Lee, his Colored wife—as she was—is made administrator without bond, and she will take charge of his estate and proceed to enjoy the fruits of her life with the man who couldn't be her legal husband because she was a Colored woman and he a white man. That hundreds of other cases exist here is the belief of the old timers, who know what the habit of certain rich men are. In the old days to have a Negro wife was considered the first cut of a gentle man." BLack Billy Sunday Rousing Sapulpa BLack Billy Sunday Rousing Sapulpa Hundreds Flocking to Hear This Wonderful Preacher. (Star News Service). SAPULPA, Okla., Apr. 14.—Black Billy Sunday is in town and is holding forth nightly at the Snowden's Chapel C. M. E. Church, in a big old fashioned Holy and fire revival meeting. The Snowden Chapel is the largest edifice among the Colored people and has proven inadequate to accommodate the immense throngs that are coming to hear this wonderful Gospel preacher, whose burning messages of salvation has gripped the masses of both Races, who are coming for miles to hear Black Billy. Pastor J. H. Scott is almiles as all roads are leading to Snowden's Chapel. The saints are being edified, hardened sinners are being converted and back-sliders restored to Christian fellowship. As Sunday April 18 will mark the close of this remarkable Gospel campaign and promises to be Red Letter Day in Sapulpa, hundreds of out of town folks are planning to attend the big farewell demonstration when Black Billy *will speak four times during the day at 10:30 he will address the Sunday School Just to show the public our sincere appreciation For Your Enthusiastic Support Of our Startling Introductory Offers Here are offered a few of the many Brand New Bargains children, this will be one of the great children's services, when Black Billy will give one of his famous illustrated talks to the little folks.

This promises to be the hour when the saints will march around the city of Zion. At 2:30 Monster Men's Mass Meeting for men only when Black Billy will give his famous talk to red blooded men on the subject, "Flap Jacks Hot From the Griddle" a plain talk to manly men straight from the shoulder. His Honor Mayor Wade Bohn, members of the city council, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will attend in body, as this meeting will be in the interest of the battle for civic decency. At 7 P. M. monster Farewell Say So Meeting. At 8:00 P. M. Farewell Sermon, subject "The Eagle Stirrth Her Nest" to close a big silver dollar Rally. When it is hoped to raise 8500. Monday evening Black Billy will deliver his famous humorist lecture "The American Negro, the Riddle of the Ages." He will tell the wonderful story of Negro achievements from the jungles of benighted Africa to the battle fields of Sunny France. He will give his personal experience in the daring charge at the battle of San Juan Hill and in the yellow fever camps of Cuba. He will say good bye to the people of Sapulpa and leave for Dallas, Texas where he is to lead a big city wide Evangelistic campaign opening on Wednesday night. Hundreds will hear his final words, so great is the interest among all classes. It is rumored that an effort will be made to bring Black Billy to Tulsa at an early date. CONDENSED ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS NOTES Race Happenings Gathered for Edification of Star Readers. Prohibition is credited with having brought about better relations domestically between the two races at Philadelphia, and the Deleware Conference declares our people are more thrifty and industrious. Colored republicans of Missouri are showing their appreciation of the excellent service rendered the Race by Congressman Dyer, present 12th District incumbent, by having Dr. William A. Venerable, dean of Lincoln Institute, entering the field against him with pledged backing of 6000 voters. Messrs Harry H. Pace and W. C. Handy, noted publishers of all kinds and varieties of "Blues," are also connoissems in their taste for fine art paintings. Conscientious objector Simmonds of our Group, has been released from prison at Fort Aleatrez. Dr. McCoy Johnson, popular woman physician of Sapulpa was a visitor in the city Tuesday.

VALUE OF GLAD MUSIC, | GLAD FRIENDS AND | GLAD THOUGATS: |The Great Abraham Lincoln Once i Prescribed Mirth to the Members of His | Cabinet. (Special Tulsa Stargraph). WASHINGTON, D. C., Apr. 15.— Pcople generally’ are beginning to realize that glad books, books which teach us to look for the bright side of things, for the good side of man, are books which are a part of the un'versa} nobility that is in every- one’s soul. ‘The same is true of glad music, and every one of us every day should hear a little glad_music ~ music sparkling with — prismatic melodies and pleasing rythm. Cer- tuinly the electric piano and the po- pular yictrolas are doing their share toward dispelling dull care away and thus giving place in our minds fer nobler thoughts and thrivings. Yet too few of us realize the need of gladness, mirth and happiness ‘every day. For instance, the late ‘Charles Farrar Brown, with real ‘name of “Artemus Ward,” the great humorist, was at one time summon- ‘ed to Washington to a cabinet meet- ing when Abraham Lincoln was pre- sident (September 22, 1862). When Mr, Brown arrived, Lincoln stopped ‘the proceedings to introduce “Arte- mus Ward,” and then read an entire chapter from one of Ward's books to the members of the cabinet. Ed- win Stanton and the others were amazed that Abraham Lineols agith the terrible weight of the CiviTWar -on his shoulders, should interrupt an important meeting to read a hu- morists’ funny remarks, When Lin- coln, laughing heartily at the chap- ter, looked up and saw his cabinet all sitting around with solemn faces he said: “Gentlemen, why don’t you laugh? With the fearful strain that is cn me night and day, if I did not laugh I should die—and you need this medicine as much as I do.” Giad music is soul medicine for a‘lof us. All of us more or less have the devil's mortgage, WORRY, and the best way to get rid of it is by means of glad music, glad books, glad friends and glad thoughts.

We have reached the point on the stream of time where every earnest hearted person should say in the language of St. Paul, "Let God be true, though it prove every man a liar." (Bom. 3: 4.) Then let us settle the question according to the word of God. "The dead praise not the Lord, neither they that go down in silence." (Psalms 115: 17) "His (man's) breath goeth forth, he returns to the dust; in that very day his thoughts perish." (Psalms 145: 4. "For the living know that they shall die; but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy is now perished; neither have they any more a portion forever in anything that is under the sun. What soever thy hand findeth to do, do with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom in the grave where thou goest." (Eccl. 9: 5, 6, 10) Why should intelligent people pay large sums of money to priests (who are nothing but sinful men) to pray prayers for persons in this condition? The Psalmist says, "In death there is no rememberance of thee, in the grave who shall give thee thanks." (Psa. 6: 5). But I hear someone ask, "Is not there a Hell?" We answer, sure there is. But the Bible Hell is not a place of conscious torment, by forked tail devils or otherwise. The Hell mentioned in the Bible is the condition of death, oblivion, the tomb, the grave, or in other words it is a condition of non-existence. The only word in the Old Testament translated "hell" is the Hebrew word "sheol". It is translated more times "grave" than it is translated "hell" and means the same thing in each instance. We give a few samples. Jacob, weighted down with grief because of the suppose death of his son Joseph, said, "I will go down to my son, Joseph in sheol (hell) mourning." (Gen. 37: 35). Later when requested to send Benjamin to Egypt, he said, "My son Benjamin shall not go down with you to Egypt for if evil befalls him you will bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to (sheol) hell." (Gen. 43: 38). If hell means conscious torment in fire, we ask: "How long would the gray hairs of Jacob last in such a place? Would God make the gray hairs immortal in order to torment them?" Job was a good and godly man. After he had suffered the loss of all his earthly possessions, his children killed, his wife became his enemy his neighbors taunted him because of his suffering, his body putrid with running sores, suffering bodily pain and mental anguish, in this awful condition he prayed that God might send him to hell. "O, that thou wouldst hide me in hell (sheol) until thy wrath be passed." (Job 14; 13.) Does any sane person believe that Job prayed that he might go to a place to be tormented and suffer more agony than he was already suffering? If you were in his position would you ask to go to a place where you would be tormented forever? Job then defines hell. He says "If I wait, hell is my house. I have made my bed in the darkness. Our rest is in the dust." (Job 17; 13-16.) If darkness, there could be no fire there. Again, he (Job) said concerning man, "His sons come to honor and he knoweth it not, they are brought low and he perceiveth it not." (Job 14; 21). Jehovah, through his prophets foretold that Jesus would go to hell, and he did. He went to the same hell to which the other dead go, and he was dead until the third day, when God raised him. Referring to Him the Psalmist wrote, "Thou wilt not leave my soul in hell." (Psa. 16: 10). This text is quoted with approval, by the apostle Peter in Acts 2: 27. If Heil is a place of conscious torment, eternal in duration, then it would have been impossible for Jesus to have gotten out; whereas the scriptures conclusively prove that he was raised on the third day. The New Testament deals with the same hell. As we know, the New Testament is translated from the Greek and the Greek word "hades" means the same as the Hebrew word "sheol." In the Revised Version of the New Testament, the Greek word "hades" has been left untranslated. Evidently the translators were ashamed to translate it "hell" after the meaning of eternal torment had been attached to the word. Our Common Version renders three different words in the New Testament "hell" and the people have long been taught by a false bunch of preachers that these words mean eternal torture. In not a single instance, as is well known by every preacher, worth the name, and scholar, does the word "hell" as used in the scriptures mean a place of conscious torment. Aside from the Greek word "hades" there are two other words from which the word "hell" is translated as appears to the New Testament; to-wit, Georgia and Tartarus. We will examine some text on each of these. Addressing himself to the people of Capernaum, Jesus said, "And thou Capernaum, which are exalted unto Heaven, shall be thrust down to hell." (Luke 19: 15). I hope no one is so foolish as to think of Capernaum, the proud city with its lands, houses, and population in a place of eternal roasting. The people of Capernaum had been greatly favored and figuratively speaking, had been exalted highly in the standards of the peoples and nations, but because of their misuse of God's blessings they were told by the Lord Jesus that they as a people should be thrust down to hades that is to say, overthrown, destroyed, go into oblivion, or in other words, that proud city was to be brought to a condition the same as though it had never existed. It is a historic fact that Capernaum is, so thoroughly buried in oblivion that not even the sight where it stood is definitely known. Jesus addressed the people of that time in parables or dark sayings, hence, He used the symbolic language as above stated. "All these things spake Jesus unto the multitudes in parables, and without a parable, spake He not unto them." (Math. 13; 34). Again he said, "Thou art Peter (Greek) petros" a rock or stone one of the living stones—strong minded, of strong character) and upon this rock (Greek) "petra," mass of rock, f undamental rock truth; the great truth that Jesus is the Christ. I will build my church (composed of faithful followers like St. Peter) and the gates of hell (Greek "hades") shall not prevail against it." (Math. 16; 18). Paraphrased we would understand these words to mean that Jesus established the church, which is his body, composed of many members (Col. 1: 18; Cor. 12: 12), and all the bitter and relentless persecution which has been experienced of His true followers throughout the Gospel Age and which has taken them down into hell, the grave, the same place where He went, should not prevail to her utter extermination, because in God's due time the church would be brought forth in the first resurrection. (Rev. 20: 6). Again Jesus said, "I am he that liveth and was dead. Behold I am alive forevermore, Amen; and have the keys of death and hell (hades, the grave)" ((Rev. 1: 18). The keys means the power to unlock. Jesus statement here is that once He was dead, but now He has been raised and is alive forevermore and has the power to unlock the tomb, the grave, the condition of death, and bring forth the dead in the time of the resurrection. "The lake of fire and brimstone" is several times mentioned in the book of Revelation, which all Christians admit to be a book of symbols. However, most of them, under the influence of the teachings of selfish and ignorant preachers, think and speak of this particular symbol as a literal statement, and that it gives support to the eternal torment doctrine, notwithstanding the fact that the symbol is clearly defined as meaning the second death. "And death and hell was cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death, etc. (Rev, 20; 14). It is some time spoken of as "a lake of fire burning with brimstone." (Rev, 19; 20), the element brimstone being mentioned to intensify the symbol of destruction, the second death. Burning brimstone is one of the most deadly elements known. It is destructive to all forms of life. The symbolsim of this lake of fire and brimstone is further shown by the fact that the symbolic beast and the symbolic false prophet and death and hell (hades) as well as the devil and all his followers are destroyed in it. (Rev, 19: 20; 20: 10, 14, 15; 21: 8). Dear friends, I would be more than glad if some of these false teachers or their followers who believe in the "Lake of fire and brimstone doctrine" to tell me who is going to keep the fires burning when the Devil and all his followers are destroyed in the above mentioned lake? You know the above cited scriptures plainly state that the devil will be destroyed in that lake. All the preachers worthy of the name know that this doctrine of Eternal Torment in a lake of fire and brimstone is absolutely false, but because of their selfish interest (love of money and undeserved honors) they will not come out with the truth. Brother Parsons, take my advice, as one who loves you if you will tell the truth, and come out for the truth boldly and live with your people. If you don't do this very soon you will find yourself backed in the corner by the demands of the people for the truth. If you wait until that condition is reached then the only thing that you could do would be to get out as quickly as you can because the sight of you would become a stench to the moral postil of the truth loving people.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Apr. 16. The excessive and criminally high prices charged for clothing have caused the prominent white citizens of this city to put aside thoughts of Negro domination and to concentrate their minds upon some effective method of reducing the high cost of living, especially in the matter of clothing. Oddly enough the plan agreed upon by a group of leading white bankers, merchants, and professional men, was for them to discard their woolen business suits and wear overalls. Now this course is especially odd because for generations the Colored laborers in the fields, factories and other commercial activities have always worn overalls. Hence every where members of our Group could be seen at work, or lounging alternately in the sun and shade, attired in the inevitable blue or striped overalls. In fact, with many laborers, dressing up merely meant changone overall suit for another. But now, "Col." Bill and "Massa" John are to make the overall suit eminently respectable, thus discarding it as the insignia distinguishing a white gentleman from a Negro. Certainly such a movement tending to reduce living expenses is worthy of highest commendation, but Birmingham clothing profiteers and bandits looked upon it with such disfavor, that they raised the price of overalls nearly 300 per cent thus placing them in the same class with other high priced clothing. Overall pants selling for $2.00 were raised to $6.00 and etc. The Birmingham -Overall Club, with a membership of 3,000, was formally organized at a mass meeting recently. Alvin Douglas, well known attorney, was elected chairman, and Theodore Lamar, business man and attorney, was made secretary. Friday was set as the day on which every member is to appear on the streets clad in overalls. A pledge was taken that they will be worn until the price of clothing "hits the toboggan." FIRES COLORED CLERK AND APPOINTS HIS SON St. Louis Republican Official! Shows His Love of Race by Unusual Selfishness. (Star News Service), ST. LOUIS, Mo., Apr. 17.—James N. McKelvay, Commissioner of Public Safety and 23 Ward Republican Committeeman, last week removed the only Colored clerk he had in his department, and appointed his son. The son was then promoted to the most important job in the department. This attracted the attention and condemnation of the Associated Engineering Society of the city The selfish ambition of James N. McKelvey, Commissioner of Public Safety and Twenty-third Ward Republican Committeeman, to place his whole family on the city payroll, at high salaries, has run into a snag, and there must be some explaining done. The joint council of the Associated Engineering Societies wants to know why McKelvey has appointed his youthful son without an efficiency examination, to the highly important position of chief engineer of the Building Department.

Your Resolution Should Be: "I will Get Well the Mechano-Therapy Way" Mechano-Therapy is a scientific method of finding the cause of disease in the spinal column (back bone), and correcting that cause by adjusting the vertebrae (segments) of the spine to eliminate any pressure on the nerves that pass out from the spinal cord to supply all parts of the body with nerve force (life). When this is done nature will make you well. Mechano-Therapy adjustments open the channels for nature to do her work. Let us explain how Mechano-Therapy will make you well.

BALTIMORE, Md., Apr. 17.—Two Negro foremen were appointed by the Water Board at the request of Mayor Broening, and will organize a Negro gang for the construction division. The men are James H. Roberson of the Eleventh ward and Robert L. Price of the Eighteenth ward. They were named in a letter from the mayor to Water Engineer William W. Megraw and go on the pay roll at 45 cents an hour. It is the first time that Negroes have been employed as foremen in the Water Department. Chambliss Celebrated Case. (A. N. P. Service). CHICAGO, Ill., Apr. 17.—The case of Dorsey Chambliss, policeman charged with abducting a white girl who had applied to him for help and of keeping her prisoner for weeks, during which time she was visited by other men, has attracted considerable attention and has made it impossible, according to Louis B. Anderson for the defendant to secure a fair trial in the courts. Chambliss this week on hhe advice of Attorney Louis B. Anderson, resigned from the police force. Bertha Wybeck a white girl sixteen years old, according to the charges against Chambliss, came to Chicago to earn her living. The family in Panee Rock, Kansas was poor and her brother still in the Navy, so she and another girl came here to live. The Wybeck girl claimed that after being lost in the vicinity of Thirty Fifth and State Streets, and seeing Chambliss in a policeman uniform asked him the way to her stopping place. It is stated that Chambliss lured the girl to a resort, keeping her a prisoner and forced her to receive visits from other men. One day, a pedestrian picked up a piece of paper on which was written a message to the girl's friend: "I am a prisoner. I am sick, please tell somebody to rescue me." Signed Bertha. The girl was finally located, taken to the County Hospital suffering with pneumonia and died later. A number of white clubs of women have taken active interest in the case and demanded an early trial and a number of other demands from which threats of such an extent are made that Judge Stelk declared that he preferred not to hear the case. An editorial in the Chicago Tribune has been widely copied by Southern newspaper and the case, because of the color of the defendant has been given unusual notoriety. The attorney for Chambliss claims that he is innocent of the charge. Chambliss admits having seen the girl and endeavored to direct her to a home for girls on Indiana avenue, but declares he had no part in her downfall. The delays in the prosecution of the case have been due to postponement by the State's Attorney, for lack of direct evidence and it is possible that there may be other delays or the case entirely dismissed because of the inability to secure witnesses to prove the charges. So-called headaches, eye diseases, deafness, epilepsy, vertigo, insomnia, wry neck, facial paralysis, locomotor ataxia and other inco-ordinations are caused by pressure on nerves at this point. Pressure on nerves in this part of the spine is the cause of so-called throat trouble, neuralgia, pain in arms, goitre, nervous prostration, la gripe, dizziness, bleeding from nose, disorder of gums, catarrh and other so-called "diseases." Pressure on nerves here will cause so-called bronchitis, felons, pain between the shoulder blades, hay fever, writers' cramp, and other troubles. Horse pressure at this point causes so-called nervousness, heart disease, asthma, pneumonia, tuberculosis, difficult breathing and other lung troubles. So-called stomach and liver troubles, enlargement of the spleen, pleurisy and a score of other troubles are caused by pressure on nerves in this part of the spine. At this point we find the cause of so-called gall stones, dyspepsia of upper bowels, fevers, shingles, hiccough, worms, and many other inco-ordinations. Pressure on nerves at this point will cause so-called Bright's disease, diabetes, floating kidney, skin diseases, boils, eruptions and rheumatism. Such troubles as so-called appendicitis, peritonitis, lumbago, etc., yield to Mechano-Therapy adjustments in this part of the spine. Why have so-called constipation, rectal troubles, sciatica, etc. when adjustments at this part of the spine will eliminate the cause? A slight displacement of one or both hip bones will produce so-called sciatica, together with many "diseases" of pelvis and lower extremities.

CHICAGO, Ill., Apr. 17.—There have been three recent gatherings in Chicago which demonstrate beyond question the change of sentiment in favor of giving all American citizens a "square deal" and an equal opportunity to live at peace with their neighbors. could be done so that it would not be mistaken for political purposes and effect, that he would subscribe liberally to such a monument and Hon. O'Donnell declared he would also subscribe liberally for such a monument. Grand Boulevard is a thoroughfare along which there has recently been bombing of property. The first meeting was the annual gathering of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People held in the Wendell Phillips High School. The chief speaker on the occasion was Rev. John Haynes Holmes, pastor of Community Church, New York. Dr. Holmes was fearless in his denunciations of the injustices against Negro citizens and declared that the time has come for Americans everywhere to consider the problems of the Race without prejudice and with a view to giving everyone, regardless of color, a "square deal." He made special references to the sins of omission and commission of the republican and democratic parties and declared that in his opinion, salvation will not come until a third party is established through which the people who believe in justice can have expression. More than two hundred thousand people attended his meeting. At the honor memorial meeting held in honor of Frederick Douglas held at Quinn Chapel Church, Hon. Patrick O'Donnell said to be one of the most eloquent lawyers of the county, declared that the Negroes of America will get respect when they show the spirit of "fighting back." Adelbert H. Roberts, a member of the Illinois Legislature stated that it is his ambition to see the statue of Frederick Douglas at Thirty-fifth and Grand Boulevard, so that it may be a lasting inspiration to all who pass that point. Mr. Roberts said that Governor Lowden said that when it THE TULSA STAR, Saturday, April, 17, 1920 They can do it the year around in the Philippines at the Filipino people have been Ameri- c of baseball is the rage in the islands, which preceded one of the big games in the end of the archipelago to the other, sports, some classy players have been could be done so that it would not be mistaken for political purposes and effect, that he would subscribe liberally to such a monument and Hon, O'Donnell declared he would also subscribe liberally for such a monument.

It is not to be wondered at the way the Democratic party has been in the foreground in the Southern States, when one realizes the methods they have been using. Representatives are apportioned among the several states according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each state. In most of the Southern States, many of the poorer whites are disfranchised as well as the entire Negro population. "When the right to vote is denied to any number of such states, being 21 years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged _____ the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such citizens shall bear to the whole number of citizens 21 years of age in such State." Article XV of amendments to the Constitution of the United States was ratified March 30, 1870: "The right of the citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude. Congress shall have the power to enforce the provision of this article by appropriate legislation." Mr. and Mrs. Dorsett of N. Greenwood, left this week for Columbia, Mo., where they will reside. --- 2ND MISSION COMES FROM PHILIPPINES 2ND MISSION COMES FROM PHILIPPINES Body Headed by Senate President Quezon Reiterates Demand for Independence. That the Filipino people are in earnest in their demand for immediate independence is indicated by the coming to the United States of a second Philippine mission to work for independence. Coincident with this announcement the War Department received a cable from Manila stating that the all-Filipino legislature had adopted resolutions reiterating its plea for immediate independence. The second mission, like the first, is composed of the leading men of the islands and will work in the United States not only for immediate independence, but also to bring about "better understanding, greater confidence and closer economic relations between the United States and the Philippines." The mission is again headed by Manuel L. Quezon, president of the Philippine Senate, who is well known in America, having been for six years resident commissioner to the United JOHN B. HARRIS Senate President Manuel L. Quezon. States. Mr. Quezon and the Hon. Sergio Osmena, Speaker of the Philippine House of Representatives and Vice President of the Council of State, are the leaders of the Nacionalista party, which has been in power since 1907. While Speaker Osmena is not so well known in the United States as Quezon, he is considered one of the ablest men in the islands. Senate President Quezon recently referred to Osmena as "the greatest Filipino since Rizal." The personal relations between Osmena and Quezon are probably without a parallel in modern politics. They have been the leading political figures in the islands for 12 years, yet there has never been the slightest indication of rivalry between them. Throughout their college life as well as their long political service each has refused to be a candidate for any position that the other aspired to During the years Quezon was the Philippine delegate in the American Congress he won the esteem and confidence of both the Republican and Democratic sides of the chamber. Whenever he spoke he was assured of a good attendance. One of the official short hand reporters once declared Quezon used the purest English of any member of the House. Osmeña, as president of the Nacionalista party, is the leader of the national movement for independence. "Osmeña is the premier 'de facto' of the Philippines," said a leading Filipino- PETER H. Speaker Sergio Osmena. no journalist, now in America. "A very conscientious and tireless worker, thorough and persistent, a genius for grasping the big features as well as the smallest details of public affairs, cool headed, quiet by temperament and education, a deep thinker, an eloquent speaker, a polished writer, a keen observer of men—such as Osmena." Both Osmena and Quzon have been consistent advocates of Philippine independence, yet when the occasion demanded it they have never hesitated to champion the cause of America's good intentions toward the Filipine people.
