Jeffries-Johnson Fight Films Show The Jeffries-Johnson fight pictures, the exhibition of which caused so much talk throughout the entire United States, are being shown at Mozart hall in St. Paul and the opening performance yesterday afternoon found a full house on hand to witness the show. The pictures have a three day run in St. Paul, yesterday, today, and Wednesday, afternoon and evening, and Minneapolis, as well as St. Paul lovers of boxing are flocking to the front to get a glimpse at the depiction of the greatest heavyweight fight ever arranged. The pictures, unlike most fight films, are clear in every detail and show Johnson master of the game at The Colored Catholic's of St. Paul expect soon to give a superb entertainment for the benefit of charitable purposes. Defective Page VOL I. Single Copies 5 Cents. Hale McCollough's Orchestra. NEGROES NOT WANTED all times, although Jeffries plays a hard up-hill game. The negro throws his big opponent off at will in the clinches and in several rounds is seen to pin Jeff's arm behind him in clinches. Jeffries never showed one minute of classy fighting, while Johnson worked at all times. The knockout is plainly seen as are the two knockdowns previous to the end of the fight. There really should have been no knockout as Jeffries' seconds disqualified their man by jumping into the ring on his second fall. Tex Rickard, the referee is also shown at fault for, instead of counting Jeffries out, he is seen running like wild from one side of the ring to the other. The pictures, on the whole, are first class in every detail and there is not one objectionable happening in the entire fight. DEATH INVADES LOYAL LEGION. Seven Members Die Since Last Meeting, Held in May. Although less in numbers by seven since their last meeting in May of this year, the military order of the Loyal Legion held its opening dinner of the present season at the West in Minneapolis last night.

The social event of last week was the luncheon given by Mrs. B. V. Holmion of 223 E. 6th Street, in honor of Mrs. D. L. Wooten of Mississippi and Mrs. Elizabeth Simpson of Los Angeles. The following ladies and the guests of honor were present, Mrs. R. Stokes, H. S. Merry, J. L. Smith, H. J. Shelton, Lillian Newsome, Belle Black, Sedonia Black, Tina Mason, O Rodney, Minnie Gladys, Adams, and Miss Adams of Indiana. The luncheon was served at 5 P. M., The table decorations were pink and white carnations and running ferns. Mrs. Holmion's well known reputation for entertaining went up several degrees and every one present left, feeling indebted to the hostess for a most pleasant afternoon. At this writing there is considerable uncertainty as to who will officiate at St. Mark's A. M. E. church for the evening year. Rev. Brewer is still in charge and seems to have a good chance of remaining. Altho he was assigned to Galesburg, Ill., while there are those who would prefer to see him go, there is probably just as many who would like to see him remain and aside from personal reasons of individuals there is no reason why, if he desires, that he shouldn't remain as he has done as well perhaps and better than some of his predecessors who have rendered efficient service. The primary election resulted in a landslide for Cong. Clarence B. Miller and John R. Menning the Stars candidate for Congress and Sheriff respectively. DORIC LODGE, A. F. & A.

Several spitters were arrested this week by the Health officers. Do not spit on the sidewalk! CALL ON DAN WILLIAMS, 308 3rd ST. SOUTH, FOR YOUR MEALS. A GREAT ACHIEVEMENT. by Dr. Dan Williams. The "Master of Surgery." The meeting of the "Indiana Medical Society," an association composed of the leading Negro physicians of the state, was held last week at Indianapolis. The enthusiasm and interest manifested by all present, contributed to make it the most successful annual gathering in the history of the Organization. The climax of the week came when through the efforts and influence of that "greatest of all Negro Surgeons", Dr. Daniel Williams of Chicago, the white hospitals were opened and colored surgeons were privileged to demonstrate their ability and competency for the first time. Dr. Williams is the first colored surgeon to operate in any white hospital in Indianapolis. The prominent white surgeons, students and internes came to criticise and mock but were astounded and completely silenced when Dr. Williams not only "did the work" better than any surgeon in Indiana could have done, but at the same time delivered a lecture on differential diagnosis of the case that would have been a credit to the best surgeons of the world. He compelled the admiration of all present by the way in which he came into a hospital that was entirely new to him, took charge of the operating room, nurses, and internes, then diagnosed and operated on a case that he had never seen until she was wheeled in ready for the operation. Some of the colored physicians who had never witnessed Dr. Williams' skill and technique, were rather anxious as to the outcome of this first demonstration before the large audience of "whites," but the cool, self possession and confidence of this "peer of all surgeons," set them at their ease and they were lost in admiration of the man who for six years was a member of "Illinois State Board of Health," for seven years surgeon and member of the staff of Cooke County Hospital, and at the present time is one of the staff and surgeons to St. Lukes Hospital, positions that have never been filled by a colored physician before. We regret that the colored hospital of this city has not taken advantage of its opportunities and endeavored to be in closer relation with the man of whom Dr. J. B. Murphy said "were his face white the world would recognize none better than he." GRAND THEATRE. Hattie Garland, Bandanna Quartette, The Chappies and Thomas C. Collins. "Monogram."

ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION. Foraker's Cafe was the scene of a "large spread" in honor of its second anniversary. There was many good things and the best bill put up anywhere in the Twin Cities. The Cafe was decorated with flowers, and the service and quality was highly commendable. Mr. Rutledge spared neither pains or expense to make it a success. His souvenir bills of fare headed with his motto. "Foraker's life is an open book." Mr. Rutledge is a race man, and a good business representative of our people.

The table was beautifully decorated with roses and carnations. Miss Odell had as her guest Miss Montgomery and Burnswick of St. Paul and Mr. Clarence White of St. Paul and Mrs. R. P. Temple. At the banquet of the Minnesota State Medical Association given at the Commercial Club of Minneapolis, Dr. R. S. Brown was the only representative of our race.

After a chase of three weeks by the Minneapolis police, John Jones, the negro who stabbed and killed Roy E. J. Jeffries, 55 Holden street, another negro, on the night of Sept. 18 in the room pool of Tyler Bros., 725 Washington avenue south, was located early Sunday morning in Mason City, Iowa, and captured by Detectives Crummy and Derrick. Jones reached Mason City shortly after the stabbing and has been working there as a drayman. He went under the name of Frank Baker, but his identity was discovered by a negro detective, who had been shadowing him and who telephoned the local police that he had him located. Detectives were immediately sent and went to a barn where Jones was shooting craps with several friends. As soon as he saw Detective Crummy he knew the "jig was up," but he decided to make one dash for freedom and started for the nearest window, which he was about to jump through when a bullet from Crummy's revolver halted him and brought him to the ground. He showed fight after that, but was soon overpowered and handcuffed. The bullet had taken effect in his left hip and he was removed to the hospital there, where his wound was temporarily dressed. He refused to have the bullet extracted and was brought back to Minneapolis. He is now in the City hospital under strong guard. Several X-ray pictures have been taken, but the bullet has not yet been located. It is said, however, that the wound is not serious. Jones, according to the police, admits the stubbing, but declares it was done in self-defense. Jones is now confined in the County Jail, and his wound is serious. He was interviewed by our representative when it was reported that he was not receiving proper medical treatment. This is untrue. He is being regularly treated. He denies making an attempt to jump through a window, when he was shot and says that one detective had hold of his arm, when detective Crummy fired the shot. His clothing was set on fire. He had been turned up by a negro, whom is known as HI Henry and who is not recognized as a regular detective. Jones waived examination and was held to wait the action of the Grand Jury. He engaged Atty's Jackson and Franklin. Prof. Vance, the pianist, has been suffering from an attack of rheumatism, but is able to continue his work MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY. UL No. 18. No.18 HOTEL NOTES. Hotel Waiters of the Northwest are Being Glazed as the Best. Being Classed as the Best. The waiters of the Twin Cities are doing more good for the rest of the craft, than they are credited with, and are willing to let the outer world know that they are a class of men, who demand good treatment and get it. Their managers and superior officers are men, who seem to value good servants and good service. The majority of our waiters are not the past masters, or globe trotters, who have served everywhere, everything and everybody, but are the real waiters of today, those who "please the guests." This is the secret of service. Give the man who buys what he wants. The Twin Cities today get some of all of the people of the world, and our waiters here are to a standard which meets the demands of the traveling public. We admit that most of them are not equipped for the high class service that is the standard of some of our Eastern cities, but they know its fundamental principles. Among these are men who own their homes and have respectable families in fair circumstances. The best waiter of today, is the most intelligent. His diplomacy is his most valuable asset. He is the salesman of the food department, whether in dining car, club, cafe or hotel. His service either commends or condemns. The public will not stand for anw deception. They are reasonable. They do not wish "Uncle Remus" stories or "dining room vaudeville." Yet there are a few of the guests whose familiarity becomes contemptible. But if a waiter will stay a waiter, and not an information bureau, he will always be in a position to secure work which will afford the most comfortable living today. Be what you seem to be! WHEN AT SEVEN CORNERS GO TO PETERSON'S FOR DRUGS. Mr. Dunbar formerly headwaiter of Carlings in St. Paul, is at the Rogers in same position. Mr. Kennedy, who was at the Commercial Club, has left for Chicago. Who will send some hotel notes from St. Paul? This is the "candy column." Workingmen's news is accepted always. Beats beauty shows and prize contests. Mr. Robert Regan, the headwaiter at the Rogers, is making good with the colored boys. He seems to be pleasant, and knows that they are to work together for the management. A business proposition. That all. Mr. Chas. Hardin, is one of the men in charge at the Rogers, and "Charlie" says that the most favorable conditions prevail, and that the men are beginning to show improvement daily. Mr. Rogers personally is well pleased. They cut the French language off the bill in one of the big hotels last week. That means that they'll put the French waiters out the door — "Some of these days." ELKS RECEIVE VISITORS. A delegation from Gopher Lodge No. 105 visited Ames Lodge of Elks No. 106 at their meeting Tuesday night. They were well received The delegation included Messrs. Owen Howell, R. M. Johnson, W. M.

JOSEPH ABNER HARPER DEAD. | TWO ARRESTS IN LOS ANGELES BRAVE DEFENDER OF CAMERON DAM GOES DOWN BEFORE SUPERIOR NUMBERS. ONE DEPUTY SHERIFF IS KILLED Which Raged Around the Lonely For est Clearing For Eight Hours— Deltz Has His Hand Shattered By Bullet. Winter, Wis., Oct. 10—Handcuffed to Fred Thorbin the man who is his own wormy enemy, John F. Deltz, the defender of Cameron dam, surrendered at 3:20 Saturday afternoon to the law and will stand trial. Oscar Harp, a deputy, was killed, Deputy Vonpommerlo was with Harp. Both men made a run for the number pile. Harp fell dead with a bullet in his mouth. Kristi and Leslie are prisoners, and are not injured. The terms of the surrender were unconditional, other than a request from Deitz that he be protected from violence. DIETZ HOME SURRO THORNAPOLE The sketoh shows how the dep home of the Wisconsin outlaw. The arrow at the right Indicates the Cam Helen Deitz, the 14-year-old daughter of the prisoner, represented the family side in the final peace negotiations; the other side represented by Sully Felfingerf of Minneapolis, the man chosen by Sheriff Madden to go in and make arrangements with Deltz and promise him absolute protection from violence to either himself or his family. John Deitz, his wife, his oldest son Clarence, and his son Leslie occupy cells in the county jail at Hayward while his eldest daughter, Myra, although under arrest, is still confined at the hospital at Ashland as the result of the bullet she received in the back from Thorbin's pistol a week ago. The log cabin which Deitz has defended on Cameron dam for the last six years during his fearless defiance of the law and the authorities, is riddled with a thousand shots. Rev. Father Pilon Enters Cabin. Rev. Father J. A. Pilon was the first to enter the cabin since the progress of the earnest seige. While Helen, acting as her father's emissary of peace, was asking the deputies for protection from violence, the brave Catholic priest, learning that there were wounded in the shack, took advantage of the truce and with the permission of. Sheriff Madden, crossed the clearing to the cabin where he lent assistance to the wounded father. The interior of the Deitz cabin is one mass of bullets. Every log is riddled and daylight peeks in at every angle. During the shooting, Mrs. Deitz and Helen and John, Jr., occupied positions of comparative safety, behind a barricade of boxes, chairs and the organ in the living room floor. To Mrs. Deitz is given the credit of the surrender with the loss of only one life. With Helen and Johnnie at either side, the mother sought in every way to shield her young from the merciless deadly rain of steel and lead. Although bleeding profusely from the nasty bullet wound in his right hand, Deitz would only grit his teeth and return the intermittent fire when the bullets continued to pop inside the shack. The pleadings of the mother and the frightened, yet silent set faces of the two children, especially John F. Deitz, Jr., his father's pride, finally softened the heart of the man who for six years has defied anyone and everyone, law or no law. The hardships of war were soon softened by Father Pilon who in all kindness and truth Son of Founder of Harper & Brothers Stricken in Ingleside, N. Y. New York, N. Y. — Joseph Abner Harper, son of one of the founders of Harper & Brothers, is dead at his home in Ingleside, N. Y., of heart disease. He was 77 years old. For many years he worked at Harper firm but eighteen years ago he withdrew and retired from active business. He was a lover of art and was reckoned one of the foremost judges of painting in this country. Official Census Figures. Washington, D. C. — Population statistics: Orange, N.

Gibraltar, Gib. — King Manuel made his first known reference to the revolutions when he said that he would return to Lisbon, as he declared most of the army and the bulk the people were loyal at heart. TWIN CITY STAR. ED AFTER A BATTLE complimented Deitz upon his bravery in surrendering. Deitz received his wound as he placed his hand to the cabin door about to enter after he had covered the retreat of his son from the hill early in the day. Leslie had just run into the barn—had ran a full 600 yards through a perfect hall of bullets from every direction. There was an affectionate reunion when John and Leslie Deitz were brought into the county jail at Hayward where Clarence Deitz has been confined since the shooting of the children several days ago by the sheriff's posse. Since he took his frugal breakfast in his cabin with his family, after the regular morning devotions, John Deitz had not been allowed a mouthful of food. According to Mrs. Deitz, the treatment of the prisoners on the way to the jail was most inconsiderate and the prisoners were roughly handled by the sheriff, despite the fact that Mrs. Deitz is in a delicate condition, expecting soon to become a mother. Deltz Denies Killing Harp. John Deltz, in an interview here, soon after his arrival declared that he did not fire the shot which caused the death of Deputy Harp. He says that Harp was either deliberately shot by some of the guards, or that he UNDED BY DEPUTIES tuties surrounded and drew in upon the home is marked by a cross, while the eron Dam, the point in dispute. got into the crossfire and was killed by one of his companions. John Deitz must face a charge of "assault with a deadly weapon with intent to kill. Other members of the attack force may be guilty in an assault with intent to kill." Story of John Deitz Fight. For eight years John Deltz had successfully defied the processes and warrants of county, state and federal courts; fought off sheriff's posses with his rifle, punctured an occasional deputy who came too close, and maintained his right to his isolated homestead in the wild forest along the Thornapple river. Deltz warfare with official society began eight years ago. He had lived with his family for years on the spot they call home. By hard work he had acquired the skills he claimed ownership of the clearing- and of Cameron dam, on the Thornapple river, over which a lumber syndicate—Boom Co.—drives its logs. Deitz demanded a toll of 10 cents a thousand feet for all logs shunted over the dam, and also a little claim for back wages unhonored by the lumber syndicate. So Deitz did exactly what syndicates usually do when they have the up per hand—he sat tight on his land, kept his fingers crossed and his rife primed. They sent deputies with civil processes to serve. He warned them away. Others came and he demonstrated that trespassers on his land, after fair warning, would be shot. He didn't hanker for visitors and uninvited deputies would be treated as mauders. Nobody got near enough to serve the papers. Warrants for arrest on contempt of court likewise went un served. Sheriffs and deputies tried to surprise Deitz. A few were carried off wounded, or crawled away. His home is a natural fortress, almost entirely isolated by a curve in the river approached by a winding wagon track through dense woods, every inch of it known to Deitz and his family, but to few others. Deitz, his two older sons and his two daughters were expert rifle shots. So was Mrs. Deitz, a former school teacher. Deitz was well educated well read, knew his rights and backed them up with a rifle. He also knew what usually happens in court to a poor man opposed by a rich syndicate. So he preferred his natural strengthhold to any legal safeguards the law throws around a poor man He stood on his policy of refusing to serve papers, and his right to shoot any trespassers on his land.

Los Angeles, Calif. — Two men were arrested and are being held for investigation in connection with the hunt for the Los Angeles Times building dynamiters. They are Charles Nehr and Frank Russell.

WHY NEW ORLEANS CITY IS LOGICAL POINT FOR WORLD'S PANAMA EXPOSITION. Its Geographical Position and Many Other Considerations Mark it as Most Suitable Spot for Dedication of Great Work. Public sentiment has decided that the completion of the Panama Canal in 1915 shall be celebrated with a great International Exposition in which all the nations of the world may participate; and the question of where this Exposition is to be held will be settled by Congress at its approaching session. New Orleans and San Francisco are contest for the honor of holding this Exposition, and both cities have guaranteed immense sums of money as an evidence of their ability to finance so great an enterprise. An Exposition worthy of the term "World's Fair," such as New Orleans proposes to build, will be a great educational movement. Its success as such, however, will depend entirely upon the percentage of our population who can secure its educational advantages, this in turn, depends upon its location, as the time in traveling to and from the Exposition, and the cost in railroad and Pullman fares, are the most important factors. Considering these matters, New Orleans' claims to being the "Logical Point" for this Panama Exposition, seem to be fully substantiated by the following facts:— New Orleans is 500 miles from the center of Population in the United States. San Francisco is 2,500 miles distant therefrom. Within a radius of 500 miles from New Orleans there are 17,500,000 people. Within the same radius from San Francisco there are only 2,000,000. Within a radius of 1,000 miles from New Orleans, there are 65,000,000. Within the same radius from San Francisco there are only 6,000,000. At an average of 900 miles from New Orleans, there are 70 of our principal cities with a combined population of 20,000,000. Averaging 900 miles from San Francisco there are only 8 large cities, with a combined population of just 1,000,000. The average distance of all these cities to New Orleans is 792 miles,—to San Francisco 2,407 miles. Over 75 per cent. of the people of the United States could go to an Exposition there at an average expense for railroad fare of $12.50, as against an average of $37.50 to the Pacific Coast; and for several millions of our people, the Pullman fare and Dining Car expenses alone, for a trip to San Francisco, would amount to more than all their transportation expenses for a trip to New Orleans. This is an important public question to be settled by Congress at the session which convenes in December. Many of our readers will wish to visit this World's Panama Exposition, and if held in New Orleans a great many more could spare the time and money for the trip than could go to San Francisco. Therefore, we urge our readers to write to the two senators from this State and the congressman from this district, requesting them to support New Orleans in the contest. Managing a Husband Men are like children; they want managing, although you must never let them dream that you think so. No child likes to be ordered about, no man will endure coercion. But managing! It is an art so subtle, so elusive, that few women understand even the rudiments of it. Sisters mine, let us reason together, says Woman's a spark of the divine; it is yours to fan that spark into a flame—that is managing a man—it is to get the very best out of him there is to have, and not two women in ten can do it. Do not think that there is anything unworthy in managing a man—to bring out the best is a high vocation. Only let us see to it that we are worthy of it. There are women who are unworthy of it, and the cost of their own divinity. There is room for more than one unselfish person in a family.

LOWERS THE PRICE OF OIL Standard Company Begins a Campaign Designed to Increase the Consumption of Kerosene. New York, N. Y. — With the declared intention of increasing the consumption of refined oil the world over, the tStandard Oil company has just announced, through its official publicity representative, J. I. C. Clarke, a reduction in the prices of kerosene in Europe and the far east. The campaign has been all planned out carefully and the officials of the company are convinced that it will result in greatly increasing the use of the concern's products. The statement issued by Mr. Clark is in part as follows: "The Standard Oil company has inaugurated a campaign to increase the world's consumption of refined oil. The level of prices for refined oil today in the United States is lower than at any time during recent years, and as a direct result of these prices the consumption of refined oil in this country is increasing. The same policy is now being actively pursued abroad." Already the Standard is carrying on a similar campaign in this country and by similar methods. Last August the company made substantial reductions in prices in America. At that time refined oil in barrels was cut 1 cent a gallon, from $9% to $8% cents at the refinery, and refined oil in tanks was reduced 1 cent a gallon, from $6% to $5% cents. The success of the policy which dictated these reductions evidently has demonstrated to the officers of the company the wisdom of extending the same policy to its operations in foreign lands.

Scene of Horror Enacted. Scenes of horror are reported on every hand. People lost their heads completely and ran almessly about, bewailing their loss. Streets of towns were strewn with personal belongings which were thrown away in their flight. Crowds of able-bodied men, mostly workmen with no person to care for, ran pell-mell to board the waiting train at Beaudette to the exclusion of women and children, and refused positively to assist in saving property. The village of Pitt was burned at 7 o'clock Friday night, and at 8 o'clock the town of Spooner and Beaudette, six miles distant, were in flames. A hurricane was blowing at the time and within 10 minutes after the appearance of the fire the inhabitants of the town were forced to flee for their lives, being unable to save any of their property. Then were enacted scenes which will never be forgotten by those present. Sick people apparently by the score appeared and were carried or assisted to points of safety. There were five patients in Carrigan's hospital, which was burned. One woman who had given birth to a child at 5 o'clock the same evening, and to be carried to the office of the Shevlin Mathieu Lumber company, in whose building many people took refuse. Property Loss $1,500,000 The property loss in Rainy River, Beaudette and Spooner alone, including the Rat Portage Lumber company's plant and yard at Rainy River and the yard of the Shelin-Mathleu Lumber company at Spooner, will total about $1,500,000. The people of Rainy River are doing everything possible to assist the homeless residents of the two American towns. Steps were at once taken by Mr. Mathleu, the executive head of the Rainy River Lumber company and the Shelin-Mathleu Lumber company, to have timed shipped over from Rainy River for the purpose of building temporary shelters for the people in Beaudette and Spooner and the boarding camp of the Shelin-Mathleu Lumber company is feeding as many of the people as possible.

Most of old Beaudette, situated at Minnesota and International bridge, has so far escaped the fire, as well as the buildings of the Shelin-Mathieu Lumber company at Spooner, through the activity of the Canadian Northern Railroad company. Most of the women and children of these towns have been taken on special trains to points east and many more are on steamers ready to leave should the wind change and the fire spread. All available hose is in use, but the fire, driven by a furious northwest wind, is beyond control and must burn itself out. Awful Scenes At International Fails. International Falls, Minn. Oct. 10. More than 250 dead, millions upon millions of dollars' worth of property destroyed, 3,000 refugees fleeing from the flames, is an epitome of the happenings of the hell session in the Beltrami county forest fires. Thirty-five typhoid fever patients were carried on improvised litters from Spooner just before it was wiped off the map. Forty-five were carried from Beaudette and the mecca of all the refugees, carried or lottering from exhaustion was Rainy River, Can. thinking there was no danger, started to pull them out of the town. Later, the flames subsided and 500 refugees landed in International Falls—strong men, shaking like leaves in a garden, and their children, fever patients on shutters, burned men and women swathed in bandages and a whole motley crowd in stock-cars like cattle. International Falls met them at the station, opened the city hall and hotel for them and gave them beds, such as could be provided. There was no escape to the west. The east was the only chance and it was a alim one. Bridges and culverts had burned out, wires were down and trains were run at their full speed. All the way from Beaudethe and Rainy River west to Warroad, a distance of 50 miles, was a solid mass of flames. Beaudethe is only a charred remnant of a town. Spooner is wiped off the map. Cedar Spur, Graceton Pitt, Swift and Roosevelt, mere hamburgers bound to the ground. Every settler in a district bounded by the Rainy River and the Lake of the Woods on the north to 25 miles south, and from Warroad west, who is not accounted for, is dead according to the most conservative information obtainable. A special relief train arrived on the Minnesota and International railroad bearing provision destined for Rainy River and the Bemidji company of the Minnesota National Guard, which will take charge of the distributes of supplies and the preservation of order. The burned district will be placed under martial law. Mayor John Berg of International Falls appointed a relief committee to arrange further to care for nearly 300 fire reguages now quartered here. There are three typhoid fever cases among them, six men badly burned and it seems that every family of set-town homes have two dozen children. They are absolutely destitute. Women have borne up under the terrible strain with wonderful fortitude and all stories from the fire district are that the women and not the men were the heroes. When the refugees fled in panic for the freight train that bore them from Rainy River Saturday to this city, men crushed women and children and in spite of the fact that the cars were choked so that standing room was at a premium, they insisted on cramming themselves in. Miss Myra Burt, a prominent young woman of Beadetuce, stationed herself at the door of one car, kicked every man in the with her point of view when attempted to board the car, and herself reached and took babes from the arms of mothers. When the train started, there were five babies aboard whose mothers were left behind. They are being care for in the hospital here. Duluth Senda Relief Train. Duluth. Six hours from the time an appeal to Mayor Cullum came from Beaudette, a special relief train was flying along the tracks of the Duluth, Missabea and Northern and the Canadian Northern toward the fire stricken region. It carried Mayor Cullum, President W. A. McGonagle of the Duluth, Missabea and Northern; Superintendent J. F. Kritter of the same road; Col. F. E. Resche, Third Regiment M. N. G.; Ray Higgins of the Kelly How Thomson company and newspaper men. C. H. MOYER TALKS TO MINERS. President of Western Federation Now in Bizek Hills District. Lead, S. D. — Charles H. Moyer, president of the Western Federation of Miners, is in the hills on a short business visit and is addressing the different miners' unions on the labor situation. While many of the union miners who left the employ of the Homestake at the time of the labor trouble last fall have quit the country, there are still several hundred here. Bloomington, Illinois. — Believing that the new primary law is uniting that the new primary law is unconstitutional and will be so declared, the Democrat of the 26th senatorial district met in conference here complying with the old law and under the Australian ballot system, and placed D. D. Donahue of this city in nomination for the legislature. This is the only convention of the kind held in Illinois since the new primary law has been adopted. A certificate of the nomination was fled immediately with the secretary of state. TWIN CITY STAR. J. B. Agler, (Tony Parker), Praises Doan's Kidney Pills.

WASTED A FORTUNE ON SKIN TROUBLE "I began to have an itching over my whole body about seven years ago and this settled in my limbs, from the knee to the toes. I want to see a great many physicians, a matter which cost me a fortune, and after I noticed that I did not get my relief that way, I went for three years to the hospital. But they were unable to help me there, I used all the medicines that I could see but became worse and worse. I had an inflammation which made me almost crazy with pain. When I showed my foot to my friends they would get really frightened. I did not know what to do. I was so sick and had become so nervous that I positively lost all hope. "I had seen the advertisement of the Cutcura Remedies a great many times, but could not make up my mind to buy them, for I had already used so many medicines. Finally I did decide to use the Cutcura Remedies and I tell you that I was never so pleased as when I noticed that, after having used two sets of Cutcura Soap, Cutcura Ointment and Cutcura Pills, the entire inflammation had gone. I was completely cured. I should be only too glad if people with similar disease would come to me and find out the truth. I would only recommend them to use Cutcura.

(BY HERMAN SCHAEFER.) (Copyright, 1920, by Joseph, B. Bowles). Confidence is everything in baseball, and confidence in one's self is what makes a ball player. Somehow or other no matter how the managers of teams thought about it I always believed I was a fair player and capable of holding my own. I guess that is the way I got my start. I learned the game on the prairies around Chicago and played with some of the fastest of the independent teams. I loved to play baseball, and wanted to become a professional. Several of my friends got into the game and made good money, more than I could see at my trade. I determined to start out professionally and inside of two weeks had a job. Somehow or other I had a hard time trying to prove that I was a good ball player. During that stage I think it was only my confidence in myself and my refusal to get discouraged and go home that kept me going along. The team I was with wanted to let me out and along came Jimmy Ryan, who was handling the Colorado Springs team, and he made a deal for me. He was as confident that I could play ball as I was myself, and when we got together I started to playing. I remember I hit about 700 every time we played the team that let me go. Ryan boosted me to friends of his in the big league and I came back home to Chicago in fast company. Again it was the same story. I thought I was good enough but no one else would believe it until I got with Detroit. There I found another team and another manager I could play with. I kept studying the game, and study- Harrison S. Herman Schaefer. ing the man who play it, until I had their confidence. The matter of success in baseball, I think, consists entirely of confidence and courage, willingness to take a chance, and to fight no matter how the game is going. Attack "Loaded Ball." In New York bowling circles controversy has been renewed with regard to the advisability of prohibiting the use of the loaded ball. About two years ago the New York Bowling association let down the bars with regard to the lead-cored sphere, but a committee which has been considering the matter for the past two weeks has now recommended the rescinding of the present rule. "For a while the eastern devotees of the game were content with matters as they stood," says the committee, "but experience seems to show that the game is not a crack players is not conductive to the best interests of the game any more than rutty alloys or steam-dried pins. With the official competitive season just beginning and the beginning of schedules in nearly 100 leagues and tournaments in Greater New York alone, the subject should be acted on at once." Eclection With Players. Every first-division manager in the American league has had friction with his best ball player except Connie Mack of the Philadelphia Athletics, and if the leader of the new champions has had any trouble he has maintained such sphinx-like silence that no one has been able to find out anything about it. Manager Jennings of the New York Giants spat at Tcib Cobb, Manager Donovan a few love words with Harry Lord and now Manager Stallings of the New York Highlanders has had a few lively rounds with Hal Chase. Talks of Fight. "I won't say that Sam Langford can whip Jack Johnson," says Charley White, the sporting man who referred the Jeannette fifteen-round fight in Boston, "but I know that he can make the chaslon go some to beat him. Never have I witnessed such punching as Sam put over in Boston. He is a wonder and a match between Johnson and he would draw almost as big a gate as did the Johnson-Jeffries frost." Received Many Injuries "Amby" McConnell, the White Sox second baseman, has had his share of injuries and lay-offs since joining the major league teams. He played great ball for Boston two years ago. Then came an enforced lay-off owing to an operation. He has been out of the game twice since joining the White Sox owing to injuries received while sliding to the bases.

Now, that the election is drawing near, our people in the Twin Cities are being looked upon. And they know why. The white man wants your vote. Do you know its value? Are you willing to promiscuously present it to him? Consider carefully, and act accordingly! You should know its worth. They have disfranchised negroes in certain parts for this reason,—that his vote was his defense. If properly exercised, this right which you hold, will place in power the men, who can help you, if they keep promises after election. The days of reconstruction are past. The negro is in his "Era o' Political Freedom." Vote for your personal interest, and you will vote for your race's welfare. This does not mean "a small sum of money," but for the men who stand for the principles of right. Assert your individuality, regardless of party. The negro has been the automatic property of the Republics, without fair compensation, and has not given his support to Democrats, who have individually, helped his race. "Right of suffrage" is your only constitutional right. Be not bound to a party. The party of a few years ago may be different today. The principles of yesterday are changed today. The candidate who stands for right and justice to all men regardless of color or conditions, who knows the policies of Lincoln and Grant, and lives up to them. Who does not recite history, but promises to give to your people their share of consideration after election, is the man you should vote for. DO YOU KNOW HIM? FALLEN HEROES. We are sad to notice that the ranks of the "honorable survivors" of that "immortal strife", are being diminished by that unconquerable foe—Death. Members of the Loyal Legion and G. A. R., are dying each day. Many of these men have always done the things which have, produced the best results for our race. History will never fall to record their achievements, which the Nations will always commemorate. But postityer has long ago forgotten the principles. Our race's friends are fast departing. Let us honor the "remaining few". CRIME INCREASING. The lawbreakers among our race have had their share of publicity, and many have earned and received their punishment. Percy Sanford was sent to the Reformatory for cutting Grant Hamilton, Ell Miller convicted of assault on Emeline Lee, John Jones, held for the grand jury, accused of the murder of Roy E. Jeffries, and Prince Williams wanted for outrageous assault, and Andrew Jackson a railroad porter, serving 90 days for disorderly conduct towards a female passenger. This is the state of affairs, and the condition will grow worse unless there is some effort made to stop this wave of crime. We are ashamed to say that there is "nothing doing" so far as humane societies or misionary workers in these parts, and that when a man commits a crime he has no consideration from that class who are in a position to elevate him Bobby Marshall gets enough press-notices from the Dalles on his work as a coach and scout. But does it pay. Bobby should be well paid for his services, and the people of Minneapolis are ungrateful to not give him a position worth having. The Jeffries-Johnson fight pictures are being shown in St. Paul, and there have been no race riots nor has the populace because demoralized as we were led to believe, soon after the fight, might result from the showing of the pictures.—St. Paul Pioneer Press. This proof reader undoubtedly wanted to go proof-seeing. But the Mayor of St. Paul is all right, and the county attorney also. What has Mayor Haynes and Co. Atty. Smith to say? Nothing. They have said too much. The political bees were buzzing—now they are stinging. Our lawyers were "going some" this week, especially in the criminal courts. New Negro Political Movement National Anti-Jim Crow Car Law Five Pledges for Candidates. The Platform. It is time, therefore, for an independent Negro movement in politics. We should refuse alliance with either of the two dominant parties at present and confine our attention to men. We should vote and vote only for congressmen and other candidates for ofice who pledge themselves to advocate the following measures: 1. The restoration of the discharged Brownsville soldiers. 2. National legislation against traynching and mob law. 3. The passage of a national anti Jim Crow law. 4. National aid to education, with the same opportunities to all children. 5. The enforcement of the constitution so as to stop disfranchisement and peonage. PARTY EMANCIPATION. The Negroes do not have to follow the regular nominee of the Republican party, because he is a republican. They vote for the man with the right principles and purposes. They have Is there a Negro receiving any recognition from the 5th district of Minnesota? When the colored voters of this district organize and unite under the leadership of one or a Committee, they will be Represented. Where is you leader? THE GAME WAS BLOCKED. THE GAME WAS BLOCKED. At a meeting of the colored voters held in the Executive Headquarters on Monday afternoon, it was decided to hold a public meeting at Dickerson's Friday 14th, 208 Hennepin Ave. Mr. P. F. Hale called this meeting. It did not meet the approval of the public. There was a bakers dozen present. The system had attempted to set representation on the Executive Committee by usual misrepresentation. There were no endorsements of candidates, or recommendations to the committee. There were remarks by Hon. W. R. Morris and Mr. F. D. McCracken of St. Paul. Chas. S. Smith fought the movement on the grounds of unfair procedure, that the people should recommend their representatives to the committee. It was proven that the voters were not in sympathy with the promoters, and a concerted effort towards harmony was advocated. Petty grafters, and underlings, who carry vest-pocket voters, and usurp the privileges of the people, are not wanted here, if they have been located here many years. There are men who are out in the open, and do not fear consequences. The crook and grafter must go. There are too many itching palms outstretched by our men in various vocations. Each one wants something for the voters he controls. The party has no right to recognize, before or after election, any such schemers. If they want to work for individuals, let them hire out, and work among the people. Do not represent, when you can't Deliver the Goods. The Twin City Star will state facts, and is for the advancement of our people politically and in every way. The candidates have been buncoed and double-crossed, and they are disregarding the Negro vote. There is now a contest on among 4 representatives of the Legislature, and a question of about 14 votes to decide the winner. The Negro has the power through unity to alter many conditions. What will you do? Do not voice your disapprovals by your absence. Come out and defend your rights. THE FUTURE OF THE RACE IS DE PENDENT UPON THE RESTRICT IONS AND THE HOME TRAIN ING OF THE UNIT OF THE RACE From the Reformer, Richmond, Va. There is a crying need in the city of Richmond, Va., for some method or means to put an end to youthful immorality—youthful obstreperousness. Boys at the age of twelve are men. Girls at the age of twelve are women, and grown up old men and women recognize these midgets as men and women. We were walking along the street the other day and saw a little girl coming up the street. The girl was of robust physique and in short skirts. She was, to appearance, a well-raised child and we considered her as such. Colcidentally, she turned into the same street in which we turned. Before us, going in the opposite direction, were two young men apparently of good raising, well dressed and comely lads they were. But their conduct belied their looks. This fact, their language to the child woman attested. The conduct of the trio was such as would pain the heart of any student of conditions as relate to our race. Now possibly, all three of these children—for children they would have, in other days than these, been considered—may have been saved to the race if some means of restraint had been brought to bear with impressed them of the folly of their way and the ultimate end of their cultivated methods. Now, this is but one illustration of what really exists in this and other cities. It is a shame that should be publicly condemned by all decent people, that grown-up men hang around and "chin" little girls who, of a right should at the time be kneeling by the knees of their mothers saying their, "Now I lay me down to sleep." But the men are not alone to be condemned. For the women, too, line up with the boys yet in their "teens" and allow them privileges that even men should not be allowed. They make of these boys men aforetime, and thus issue them into avenues which bring senility of youth and consequently, sterility of age—a fine process of murdering both the present and future generation or placing upon the latter the brand of imbecility and worthlessness. Under these conditions the race cannot develop into men and women, strong of character and of mind, nor powerful of body. This should be a matter of grave concern to every Negro who has the future of the race at heart. Parents should place the "lid" down tighter upon their children. They should restrict their outgoings and their incomings. They should regulate the conduct of the youth with the old-time regulator. They should be careful of the company their children keep. This should be the point through which a social division should be drawn. Privilege should be based upon worth in morals and not upon color or creed. For that people will most effectually inherit the earth who, in protection of the virtue of their women and of their boys and girls, build the strongest fences. Therefore, put the boot to the idler, the "dude," the worthless plotter against the hearth and home around which and in which the jewels of the family circle—the comely girls and the many boys, who are the future of the race and the perpetuators of our hope of the yet to be.—The Reformer. COUNTY REPUBLICANS MEET. Bi-Annual Banquet at Armory declared Rousing Success by Nearly 1,000. Speakers Are Cordially Received— Fire Relief Contribution Voted. Nearer Voter-Represented. Negro Voters Represented. To the appreciation of prescinct workers fully 1,000 Republican leaders at the National Guard armory last night it was the occasion of the biannual banquet which of late years the county committee has tendered the prescinct workers and they showed with appetites and cheers that they appreciated both the dinner and the speeches. Congressman Nye, W. E. Satterlee, C. J. Minor, former Governor Van Sant, J. L. McAulay, Charles E. Elmquist of St. Paul, M. H. Boulton, former Major Eustis, Earl D. Luce and Chairman Nash of the Republican committee were the speakers. It is safe to say that it was the first big gun which the Republicans have fired in Minnesota this campaign. From now on the speakers urged that the red fire be kept burning right up to election day. What the big leaders wanted was to get the men who hold the balance in the precincts together so that they could get the benefit of the combined eloquence of the best speakers the party can produce in the city. And the banquet and list of speakers certainly brought them out. Probably there was not a precinct in the city which was not represented at the armory banquet board. Major Luce, president of the new Young Men's Republican club, described the working and object of the organization. He declared he hopes to see it 1,000 strong by Nov. 8. Rev. J. S. Montgomery made a stirring talk on "Republicism" interspersed with a few snappy witticisms. Mr. Boutell declared for offensive Republicanism, saying he was tired of those who stood on the defensive. By a unanimous vote the meeting resolved to contribute to the fire relief fund. Hon. Wm. R. Morris, Hon. Phil. F. Hale, Esq., Rev. W. L. Wharton, Dr. R. S. Brown and Chas. S. Smith were among the invited guests present. Mr. J. A. Dickerson was unable to attend. All matter must reach this office by Thursday, or it will not be inserted. Do not wait to send your notes. The earlier we get the news, the better we are able to handle it. We ask this consideration from our patrons. BERT. WILLIAMS. Boy. Gentleman. Connelly As a comedian Bert Williams is incomparable—at least in the quality of his humor. There is not a trace of scurrilous or opprobrious language, but instead there is always wholesome fun and sly philosophy in all his jokes and songs. "I try" he said, "to give the people the philosophy of everyday life under cover of humor. You know, people are much apt to laugh at and appreciate the daily happenings, if they are mixed with a little spice. They don't see the humor in them until it is pointed out, and I always try to give them a little velled philosopy—not enough to leave a bad taste in their mouths, but just enough to go unconsciously to their hearts. "As I sit in a barber-shop, a railroad station or ride in a car I always have my eyes open for the observation of people. I never tire of them, and everybody, I don't care how ignorant or how apparently uninteresting, is human, and if you get close to him he can teach you a lesson in philosophy. The people who have had the hardest and saddest lives are often the most philosophical. As Booker T. Washington said of Bert Williams, "He is a tremendous asset of the negro race, as a comedian and man," and may I add, a credit to the world as a gentleman, and a pleasure to it as a boy. —Chicago Record Herald.
