THE 92ND DIVISION WAS MARKED
FOR SLAUGHTER.

The cessation of hostilities on No
vember IL saved the lives of thousands
o fblack American soldiers. 1t will
be recalled that the 92nd Division was
within striking distance of Metz when
the armistice was signed. Metz was
supposed to be i~mpregnable. 1t was
conceded to be the most strongly for
titled position held by the Germans.
After the signing of the armistice,
American engineers were kept busy
for several days in digging up mines
guarding the approach to Metz. A
general attack was to have been made
on this formidable fortress on Novem-
Der IS. The Americans were to at
tack in the center, the French on the
right, the British on the left. The
92nd Division had been reserved to
lead the American attack on Metz.
We all know what that meant. 1t
meant that Metz would have been
taken, but thousands Of brave black
American soldiers, who had nothing
whatever to do with the bringing on
of the war and who at the outset were
told they were not wanted and who
were victims of dan.nable American
prejudice eve while fighting for DEM
ecracy, would have slept the sleep that
knows no awakening on the crimson
poppy blown fields of France.
Pershing had reserved the Ninety
second Division for this supreme test
of the valor of American arms. 1t was
a compliment, if you please, to the
valor of the black American soldier.
Thousands of brave white American
soldiers, too, would have paid the SUI
pTeme sacrifice before Metz, but It
will readily be conceded that the
shock troops" would have suffered
most heavily. But an overruling
providence willed it otherwise. These
brave troops had been marked for
slaughter, according to the plans Of
man, but HE that stitch above the
waterfloods and remaineth a king for
ever, laughed them to scorn." He
would not have it so. Is there not
something profoundly significant in
this? Can any One doubt that the
hand of God was in it? If W. believe
this, how are we going to show our
gratitude to Him Who overrules the
wrathe of men?-Omaha Monitor.

some time between 10 o'clock and

OF whether or not Charlie White, Chi
cage best lightweight, is master of
Johnny Dundee will be settled in the
ring Of Milwaukee's big auditorium.
This means that II they should keep
on swapping hooks for the ten rounds
the question will be settled at about
loi4p. for they are required to start
activity at 10 O'Clock.
Betting around the battling city
hasn't been very brisk, hut Dundee
is the favorite at 10 to g. although
previous to today there was some talk
of 10 to r. But of course the odds.
IL TO- 5, ldopt reflect any great advan-
tageain favor II Dundee. One White
follower stated that Charlie could
knock Dundee out with a single left
hook. He seems to carry the greater
steam behind his left, but to even t.
up Dundee is more frequent hitter
There is one thing that White can't
afford to do tonight, il he Is to win.
and that is lot the Italian outspeed
him any more than half the distance.
No doubt both boys will try for
kayo,' but that doesn't mean there
Will be one. Both boys are smart
