Alderman Willis o. Nance, chairman
of the health committee of the city
council and head of the anti-noise com
mittee states, that in certain parts of
the city the police, are not hurting
themselves in the way of attempting
to suppress so much unnecessary noise.
But we are firmly of the opinion,
that, Captain P. J. LAWN of the Hyde
Park district and his able assistant
Lieutenant John L. Hogan in charge
of the 5Oth Street station and the other
police officials in the Hyde Park dis
trict, are doing their part to abolish
or suppress so much unnecessary noise.

ley in the chair. In the absence of the
regular secretary, Mr.. L. B. Anderson,
Miss Bertiola Fortson acted in his
stead.
Among those present were Hon. F.
Z. Lloyd, representative from the Third
district in the Illinois legislature,
and Judge Adelor Petit, chief justice
of the circuit court. Meeting of the
committee was interesting and short
talks by Representative F. E. Lloyd,
Mrs. Ida Wells Barnett, Mr.. Charles
B. Travis, Mrs. Fannie Emanuel, Mrs.
Martha b. Anderson, Frank L. Ham
ilton, Rev. W. S. Braddan and others
were full of wholesome logic which
pointed a way for the success of the
movement.
Judge Petit was of the opinion that
the Negroes, themselves, We're capable
of giving a National Negro EXPOSE
tion, and should give one. That the
Whites were not dealing fairly with
the Negroes, if they sought to give
the exposition themselves ana label it
the Negro's exposition. That the
credit of the exposition should 20 to
the Negroes, but he, the Negro, could
only hope to get that credit only where
he was in complete control of the

management. He, however, pledged his
support to the movement.
Representative Lloyd was impressive
and showed that he had given the sub
iect more than a passing interest. As
it was he who worked to secure the
passage of the bill and appropriation
for the state exposition, as well as be-
ing the recipient of the rude conduct
OF the executive by being ignored in
the appointment of commissioners.
This, however, did not seem TO affect
Representative Lloyd and his interest
in furthering the project.
On motion of Mr.. Charles B.
Travis, the chair was authorized TO
appoint a subcommittee TO perfect
and secure the incorporation of the
organization and to prepare an adj
dress to the country.
The following persons were aP-
pointed on the subcommittee: Chas.
B. Travis, Hon. F. f. Lloyd, Ida Wells
Barnett, Will G. Anderson, Julius +.
Taylor, Madam Daniel II. Williams,
W. NJ. Farmer, Frank L. Hamilton and
Bertiola FortsOn.
This committee will meet Tuesday
night next at the rooms of the Fellow

ease as a dog does heas. The only
safe thing for you to do is TO exclude
them from your home. And as there
are few communities in Chicago so
clean that flies can find no breeding
places in them, so there are flies
everywhere.
Flies carry typhoid, dysentary, tu-
berculOsis, diphtheris, epidemic sore
eyes, cholera, etc. They are dangerous
for the reason that it is known they
spread disease. The most effective
way to fight flies is to remove their
breeding places. Flies breed in filth.
Remove the filth and the flies will
soon disappear.

a school Of physicians will arise, dis

aides by cutting OF certain foods and
by surfeiting with others" "There
are diets" says the same authority,

every species of work, physical or men

may be prevented or cured; there are
diets fitted for some constitutions, in

the skin glossy, the frame vigorous
and the spirit joyous; others which
mar the race with wrinkles, speekle
the body with eruptions and make the
