Mr.. Won Chinn, who is the national
organizer of the American Protective
league for the negro race, said tenta-
tive plans already were being made for
the building and further announcement
OF the project would be made as soon
as deemed advisable
I'VE are going to erect cooperative
building in Chicago in order that we
may unite the negro citizens here and
advance the interests of the negro race

speaker. 1.-The local division of our
league, is strong, and we believe this
big enterprise will succeed.'
Roosevelt Criticized.
Joseph Henderson, founder and presi-
dent of the league for the protection
OF the negro race, was one of the speak
ers. He attributed the lack of strength
of the colored people to ''political de-
sertion.' He said the condition of the
negro was worse now than twenty-five
years ago. ii
eve no longer see many friends in
congress, observed Mr.. Henderson.
"In the White House. however, is a
broad. minded, patriotic citizen. For
Theodore Roosevelt as a,,citizen we ne
groes have nothing but praises. But
as president, Roosevelt has said moth
ing, has done nothing for the negro. -

WANT FACULTY PRESENT.
STUDENTS PLAN MASS MEETING
TO DISCUSS COLLEGE ATHLET-
los IN GENERAL.

Faculty members have been asked to
attend the student mass meeting, to be
held in the university chapel Tuesday
afternoon, and it is probable that a
representative of the faculty council
will be present to explain the faculty
attitude toward football. Both students
and faculty members will be put on the
list Of speakers and both sides Of the
football reform question will be thoroly
discussed.
Undergraduate sentiment in opposi-
tion to the council action is still active
but many Of the students believe that
the council had reasons for approving
Of the drastic conference recommended
tions and an effort will be made by the
promoters Of the mass meeting to ascer-
tain the exact student attitude.
In communication to the Minnesota
Daily today John Gleason, president
of the university athletic board Of con-
troll and one Of the most popular men
on the campus, states that student ath-
letics should be managed by students
and that football and other athletic res
| forms should be made by the students
who support and participate In athletic
contests and not by members Of the
faculty.
The writer suggests that a committee
| Of representative students would be nc
less competent than the faculty in &C
complishing results in regard to re
! form in university athletic circles and
closes his communication with the state
ment that there should be student rep
resentatives at all intercollegiate con
ferences dealing with athletics.

With the ingenuity Of a Jean Val
lean, three soldier prisoners at Fort
Smelling, clad in bath robes and carpet
slippers, escaped from the hospital ward
early this morning and today are hiding
from posse of armed men who are
securing the woods for them.
A warm bed and good meals had no
charms for the prisoners in comparison
with the delights of freedom, and while
doing time in the guard house they laid
their plans. They never thought OF
the temperature and cared little wheth-
or they came out in zero weather or
midsummer. ..s
Fake Up illness.
Suddenly, all failed in health. Pri-
vate Madison thought he had been poi
soned by the rations and Private Max
vate thinner, the third lover Of free
dom, had lumbago, and they were all
cartcd off to the hospital. Once in the
hospital they grew worse and the result
was that the nurses withdrew to a re-
spectful distance to allow them the ne
cessary quiet.
Then, in the early morning, when
only one nurse was on duty and he was
busy, they donned their bath robes and
slippers and were gone.
Look for Slipper Tracks.
When the escape was discovered ar
alarm was sounded and there was q live
| ly time while searching party was be
| ing organized. In the meantime, thu
officers and soldier sleuths were looking
| for slipper tracks In the snow. Nom
could be found and at noon the affai
had developed into mystery. No on
found any trace Of the fugitives AM
the police Of the twin cities were mott
fed to look out for the men.
It is thought that friends Of the pris
oners had "planted" civilian clothe
for them to don as soon as they escape
and that they may now be out Of reach
The woods about the fort are bein
secured by soldiers and the cities ar
being thoroly searched by detectives. I
the men had no clothes other than tn
robes it is feared that they will di
from exposure unless soon found.

WANT A PART in
ANY CHINESE ROW
PROSPECT OF FIGHTING MAKES
NAVAL RECRUITING ACTIVE.
Veteran Of the Civil War Applies for
Enlistment, but Is Rejected on Ac-
count Of Age, While q 17-Year-Old
Youth Is Hunting a Guardian.

Anxious to fight once more for the
flag which he followed as boy Of Ii,
thru the dark days from 81 to '65,
James H. Miller, aged So, applied for
enlistment at the naval recruiting sta
tion in the federal building today. At
almost the same time George Peck, an
orphan boy Of II, presented himself and
said that he had heard that trouble was
brewing in China and wanted to get
chance to take part in it.
Neither applicant was accepted, Mil
Ter because he was over the age limit,
and Peck because he was under age,
and could not enlist without the con-
sent Of his parents or guardian, AS he
court for guardian in order to enter
the service. Miller, who is a we'll
known g. A. r. man, says that he will
make special application to the presi-
dent and is confident that thru the rec
ommendation of Thomas Lowry, Cal
Goodrich and Horace Lowry he can Sc
cure the coveted berth on one Of the
repair; ships. ..z. g..
Rumors of war in the orient are the
cause Of both applications and Of much
| unrest among the members of the re-
cruiting party as well. The prospect
Of sitting at desk In Minneapolis
Willie Juo1T COulfdU6S are DOmDarQ1ng
the towns Of the Chinese coast, sinking
the Celestial feet, and dragging the
| gatlings over the rocky road to Picking
is. anything but pleasing to officers ant
men alike. The question of war il
China is set aside and the discussion
centers on what the fighting will b.
like, eff there is a war; .-...
Despite the fact that the Philippine
are ready to send land force the sail
ormen are confident that they will b
called on to do big share Of the work
The exact status Of the Chinese nav.
is a fruitful topic and the consensus o
opinion seems to be that the " Chinks
will be able to do as well or better tina
the Spaniards and that the broad Chi
nese rivers offer chance for som
snappy gunboat work. >.
No one is making any statements i
regard to the matter, but it is safe t
say that by the first Of next week ever
member Of the party will have in an al
plication for sea duty.
