Taken all in ali it is a very clever Bit
of publicity and when it is taken into
consideration that nearly million copies
tf this magazine will be circulated from
Los Angeles, California, on the West, to
Tallahassee, Florida, on the East one
may again an idea of the value of this
sort of advertising.
It is all right enough for both you and
to know just what Iberia Parish affords
the prospective residenter of our section
of the globe, but it is letting the other
fellow know that we are en- the map that
counts.

/ reeesses or secret corners of the
church, which was the means Of saving
their lives.
Then Rev. Father Thomas Burke, the
brave, heroic and manly Pastor of st.
Gabriel's Church, rushed out of his
study where he had been reading to
the front steps Of his church which
had been surrounded with mob of
more than five thousand people aud
Father Burke shouted in loud voice
''I am Father Burke" ''What is this
saerilegel Who are the rowdies that
storm the House of Godf What are
you men and women doingf What are
you thinking offHave you gone madi"
Some one at his side sheepishly ex-
planned what had happened.
"That makes no difference" cried
Father Burke. "This place is sanetu-
airy. 1 order every person in this
buildin0 to leave at once, and quiet
ly."
The crowd hesltated.
"Gol" Numbered the priest, and the
crowd began shutting out. Many are
parishioners of Father Burke and were
thoroughly sobered.
After the three oelored men had
been removed from his church and
locked up at the Stock Yards Station.
Father Burke again addressed the mob
in the following quiet manner. He
said:
'Well, folks" "these men you
came here to get are gone. They are
locked up and if they have done any
thing wrong they will be punished.
The law will do that-the laws you
have made yourselves. Now 90 home.
Be reasonable and happy. There's too
much trouble in the world right now.
Don t start more"
With the golden cross of Jesus dang
Cling in front of him Father Burke
saved the lives of those three eolored
men desolved a mob of FIVE thousand
people and averted further racial
troubles in Chicago.
In passing too much credit cannot
be given to Col. John J. Garrity, Chief
Of Police, for promptly throwing one
thousand extra policemen on the South
Side in order to let the lawless element
understand that they cannot run nor
rule the fair city of Chicago.

Thomas E. Barrett, who was an ex-
street ear conductor and at one time
South Park policeman who never had
the slightest use for eolored people,
for he labored under the false impress
sion that no eolored person possessed
any rights which white gentlemen are
duty bound to respect and with that
idea uppermost in his mind and being
ever ready to show or display his su-
periority over eolored people and to
treat all of them as though they were
nothing more than so many foot balls
to be kicked or tossed around TO fur
nish amusement for him and his
friends and on last Monday evening
he and a tough gang Of his associates
came in contact with three eolored
men namely, Samuel Hayes, $40 E.
35th street; Henry Snow, 517 E. 35th
street, and Frank Lakewood, 3446 Prai-
rie avenue, at the corner Of 47th and
Halsted streets, the three eolored men
were all employed at the Ready and
Callahan Coal Yards at 47th and Hal
sted street, and were just starting for
their homes from their hard days
work in shoveling coal when Mr.. Bar
rett and his gang of dead tough
friends decided to have some fun with
them, after Mr.. Barrett had struck
Samuel Hayes in the face with his
fist, Mr.. Hayes in self-defense pulled
out his pocket knife and after getting
it in action he came within an ace Of
removing the head Of Mr.. Barrett from
his body, which caused his death in a
very short time thereafter, then the
dead tough friends of Mr.. Barrett who
had started out to have some fun with
Samuel Hayes and his two associates,
attempted to mob and lynch them for
defending themselves against the as
saults of Mr.. Barrett and his lawless
friends.
The mob composed of more than one
thousand Christian gentlemen, ladies
and little children chased the eolOred
men east on 47th street and then north
on Wallace street to st. Gabriel's To-
man Catholic Church, 45th street and
that street, the church happened to be
open at the time and the three eolored
