Mrs. Anna Carlson first noticed some
thing in the rubbish at 2 o'clock in
the afternoon, but was too frightened
to Investigate and she waited until her
husband returned from his work. Inn
mediately the husband discovered the
body he notified the police of the South
Chicago station and it was removed to
Lulinshis undertaking-room at S324
Superior street.
How the boy met his death is as
much of g mystery to the police IS
was his appearance six weeks ago.
That he was accidentally shot by some
of his boy companions and the body
hidden in the basement. is hardly
credited by the police. as they say that
boys of that age would not have kept
the secret so long.

Kaleidoscope Changes in
Gary's Councilmanic Com
bine Take on New Aspect;
Worse Than a Latin
American Revolution.

Spectators of Gary's Kaleidoscope
change OF political events which take
on more aspects in twenty-four hours
than does a Latin-American revolution
in four weeks can now discern that the
famous council combine that has shorn
Mayor Knots of his power is once more
in the saddle with voting strength of
seven instead of six.
TO Abolish Three Jobs
New plans under way by the council
cohorts contemplate:
The abolition of the board of
public safety.
The requiring of the goard Of
public works to do the police ad-
ministrative work
The removal of the mayor and
city engineer from the board Of
public works.
II will be seen from this that the city
comptrollership is not the only job in
the mayors gift that is to be swept
away by the councilmanic avalanche
but the three fat safety commissioner
ships now held down by H. II. High

statute gives the council power "a

NATIONAL BUSlNESSLEAGUE.

The National Negro Business
League will hold it's Twelfth Annual
Meeting at Little Rock Arkansas,
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday,
August 18th, 18th and 18th, 1911.
Those intending to be present should
notify w. NJ. Alexander, Chairman
Committee on Homes, 5041k W. 9th
Street, Little Rock, as early as pos
sible!t -.
Governor George W.. Donaghey, of
Arkansas, is manifesting great inter-
est in this coming meeting, and has
assured the Local League of his en-
tire willingness to do everything pos
sible toward making the meeting a
success. Governor Donagley, the
Little Rock Chamber of Commerce,
and the most important white citizens
of Little Rock joined with the Local
League, of Little Rock in inviting the
National Organization to Little Rock.
The annual meetings of the National
Negro Business League are yearly in
creasing in value and helpfulness to
the race. They bring progressive
colored men and women together
from every section of the country,
and afford a chance to become ac-
quainted and exchange ideas with
each other
Hon. j. E. Bush, a member Of the
Executive Committee of the National
organization, is the leading spirit in
all of the activities now being made
for the coming meeting, and is especi-
ally anxious to have Northern mem
bers of the League present in large
numbers. 1T is no further from New
York to Little Rock than it is from
Little Rock to New York, and Ar
kansas has always been largely re-
presented at every meeting of the
National Organization" Mr. Bush
assures the Northern members that
the progress which the colored people
of Arkansas have made will fully
warrant their coming South in large
numbers.
The railroads have already con-
sented to make an attractive rate for
this coming meeting, and delegates
are especially urged to give attention
to the matter of arranging for Pull
man or tourist car parties.

FRiENDLlER RELATIONS.

FRiENDLlER RELATIONS.
The custodians of the $10,OOO,OOO
Carnegie Peace Foundation announc-
ed today a campaign of popular edu-
cation to establish friendlier relations
between the United States and Japan
The division of intercourse and educa-
tion has arranged an exchange, "to
give to each people better knowledge
of the other, and to help build up a
public opinion in both countries that
will resist all attempts to arouse an
tagonism"
If the Japanese find this plan neces-
sary to establish friendly relations be-
tween the brown man and the white
man it would undoubtedly be an ex-
cellent scheme for the Afro o-American
colleges in this country to exchange
professors.
1t would be of great benefit to the
students of Vanderbilt University
Nashville, Tenn, to have few lee
lures by Prof. Kelly Miller of Howard
Prof Pickens of Talladega could

professors could lecture in the Afro

VARDAMAN'S LAST STAND.

Ex-Governor James K. Vardaman OF
Mississippi has been stumping the
state in the interest of his candidacy
for the United States senate and has
developed more bitterness and rancor
than any previous political contest in
the history of the state.
One hundred and sixty oxen, har-
messed in eighty spans, drew an OK
cart upon which James X. Vardaman
rode through the streets of Meridian
in the most spectacular parade that
city has ever seen.
Five brass bands, b1aring inde-
pendently Of each other, could scarce
ly be heard by the cheering thousands.
AS bodyguard, 100 prominent citi-
zens rode horseback.
Then came the Vardaman "car." The
great string of animals, all white, car
ried white streamers bearing the leg
end, "Vote for the white chief and up
hold the white South On the back of
each OK was man shrouded in white.
At each animals head walked white
clad torch bearer. A sort of miniature
throne was erected in the OK wagon,
and upon this Vardaman sat, in i'm
maculate linen and carrying big
white hat, which he waved continually.
The most barbaric spectacle of all
was the crowd which swarmed after.
Men threw away hats, canes and um-
brellas, and fought each other with
fists to step up and place hands upon
the wagon. Women threw bouquets of
handsome flowers from galleries.
Horses plunged madly, and several
persons sustained slight injuries. It
is said that the spectacle has not had
a duplicate in the history Of the
South.

"YELLOW MEN JUDGE WHITE"
The above headline was used in a
number of American newspapers in
the report of the trial of the Ameri-
can seamen tried and convicted of
murder by Japanese court. The evi-
dent intent was to arouse race hostili-
