Walgreen's Drug Store
Hires White Cashier

The Prominent Drug Store. locat.
ed at 35th and State SITS, controlled
by the Walgreen Syndicate, has sup
planted young colored woman who
was formerly Cashier with a eau
casian gentleman of foreign appear
ance. 1t is reported the gentleman
is receiving fancy salary for rec
ofding the purchases and ringing up
the cash from the enormous colored
patronage.
Displeases Coiored Patrons.
Many complaints have been re-
gistered in the offices of the Chicago
Whip against this indignty. General
expressions are to the effect that
colored patronage should be appre-
GATED and rewarded by employing
coIored people. 1t is said that one
Greenberg, who has interest in the
firm used his influence to secure
the change. This gentleman also has
moved into a fancy residential sec
uon FAR away from all objection
ables' who spend their money in the
pnlatial drug store.
This method of action according to
reports will estrange the business
relationship between white and col
ored people on the South Side. 1t
liz hoped the matter will be adjusted
from period of fairness and equity
to all concerned.

Mrs. Dixon Immediately came to
Chicago and has tried every method
TO locate her missing son, believing
that robbery was the cause of the
disappearance as Dixon was a home

lice have been informed and every

 She lived in McCrory five rosrs, and was married to MT. George Bradley, May, IF, 1904. and has since resided in Snringdale. Realizing, that che had a very short time to live. she had her youngest son, Mai. R. B. Keating, come to Snringdale after her the first j. of April, and spent two months at his home in Little Rock, and three weeks with her other sons at Tip, on what she called her "last visits" then she wished to return to her home at Springdale where she was carried, and cared for by trained nurses but only survived seventeen days. Her son Maj. Heating was with her for a week before the end and to the last.
 Funeral services were held in here home and burial in the Springdale cemetery amid a large concourse of sorrowing friends. Thus seemed to end a long and useful life of one who possessed a great love for all things beautiful. But we know that in reality she has just entered on the begin hing of a happier life with no ending in a fairer world than this. Contributed.

MANY MEASLES CASES
For First Six Months of 1920 Total of
5O7 Cases Arc Reported.

Topeka has been infested with
measles at the rate of nearly 1000
cases a year, according to statistics in
the city board of health. For the
first six months of 1920. 507 cases of
measles were reported and from July
1 to December 1. 461 cases We're re-
ported, with a total of 96S cases in
less than a year.
No previous record IN measles has
exceeded this years total. DIR. Earle
Brown stated today. In the fall and
winter of 1916 and 1917 a measles
epidemic existed. which causes nearly
as many eases in Topeka as there are
at present.
Only one case of, the 96S cases of
measles has been fatal. Doctor Brown
contracted pneumonia while i'll with
measles.
The rate of new cases of measles re-
ported to the department seems to in
crease faster than the department is
able to release quarantine cases.
II released twelve cases of measles
and put new measles cards on thirteen
houses this morning. Miss Sarah Eel
lers, city contagion nurse, said today.
TT is amusing to see the children in
many homes where l go. The card IS
something they view with pride. One
little boy came to the door to admit
me and said to his mother:

Albert Il. Chapman Brings Action
Against Topeka Railway Co.

The case of Albert E. Chapman
against c. L. Hummer and the Topeka
Railway company, was begun this af-
ternoon before a jury in the second
division of the district court.
Chapman filed suit to collect $780,
391.90 from both defendants for in
juries which he claims to have re-
ceived several months ago, when he
alighted from a street car at Seward
and Norton avenues, and was struck
by a car driven by Hummer. He
claims in his petition that Hummer
did not stop his auto when a street
car was discharging passengers, and
also. that the street car stopped at the
wrong place.

7. B. GAINS IN Topeka
Larger Number of Cases Than Ever
Before Here.

The fact that Topeka had a larger
number of cases of tuberculosis re-
ported in the past eleven months of
1920 than in any previous year should
urge the Importance of supporting the
anti-tuberculosis crusade.
In the city of Topeka alone. in the
131 cases of tuberculosis had been re-
ported to the city health department.
Thirty eight of the cases were among
non-residents, but the remaining
ninety-three cases among residents
constitute the largest number ever re-
ported to the city in a years time.
The highest number previously re-
ported was eighty-siX.
THE apparent increase of tubercu-
losis may be attributed to four things
DIR. Earle c. Brown. city health Off
Ger, said today. First, that doctors
are more careful in reporting cases
and making earlier diagnoses of cases;
second. that people are continually
growing more wide awake to their
physical welfare, third. that the in
fluenza epidemic of 1918 and 1919
left many persons weakened from the
disease, with tuberculosis resulting !;
and fourth. that men who were in the
army suffered from exposures and
from gas attacks, leaving them good
subjects for tuberculosis"
With a free public health clinic con-
ducted every Friday afternoon in the
city health department. the city is en-
deavoring to cope with the tubercu-
lOSis menace.

said he regarded, Younger as having
made good as a crook and thought ne
could do the same officers said.
Ernest was arrested Tuesday by
George Frost, chief of detectives. at
which time he admitted stealing an IS
sweater. a revolver. and three billiard
balls. and cashing a worthless check
for So. Later he admitted stealing
the two suits of clothes. A month pre-
vious he was arrested charged with
passing two worthless checks on a
grocer, but released upon his promise
to make them good. which he never
fulfilled, it is said.
Officers said it had been arranged
for Ledford to waive preliminary
hearing tomorrow morning and plead
guilty to the charge of grand larceny.
He will probably be sent to the re-
formatory at Hutchinson.

CHANCE TO MAKE GOOD
Ernest Ledford Thought There Was
Opportunity by Being Crook.

Ernest Ledford, 20. thought there
was chance for him to make good as
as saying this morning when he was
locked up in the county jail following
his admission of he theft of two suits
of cloth from the Mutual laundry,
for which he worked two months age.
A few minutes before Ernest ar
rived at the jail his 14-year-old
brother. Preston. was brought there
and locked up because he ran away
from the detention home Wednesday
night. The younger brother had re-
manned away from school and was
incorrigible. officers said.
Cole Younger former local
burglar. had piled his trade success
fully for some time before he was ar
rested. He was then paroied. Ernest
