CHARLES E. STUMP, TRAVELLING CORRESPONDENT
FOR THE BROAD AK, VISITS MUSKoGEE, OKLA
HoMA, AND SECURES A VIVID ACCOUNT OF THE
RACE RIOTS IN TULSA

AS soon as Mr.. Brown heard OF
what was going on, he started for
Tulsa Wednesday morning, bat was
not allowed to light He went on up
the road and returned- He was de-
termined to get his wife, and he did
get her too, and she is safe now in
Muskogee, and without a change OF
clothes. She is as happy as could be,
and declared that the better class OF
white people were indeed kind, many
of them taking women and children
in their homes for protection. Many
of the women lost all their clothes,
dressed only in their sleeping gar
ments, and children the same way.
Rev. s. s. Jones, Lawyer Emmett
Stewart, Rev. J. T. K. Johnson, and
Rev. w. E. Stewart, have started a
relief fund to help some of those who
are homeless and clothless-in fact
to help all, and a letter to Rev. ]. T.
Johnson, D. D., Muskogee, will re-
ceive attention. What are you going
to do?
1t takes coin to back your sorrow
right now. Are you willing? We
had just as yell be prepared for what
ever may come, for it is coming. But
let US hope that It will never be
again. These outbreaks result in
death and in destruction of property.
I have been going some since
mailed you the last letter. l was then
in Whichita, Kansas, and you will see
where am now. / went from Wich-
ita to Oklahoma City, then out to see
DR.. H. w. Conrad, to see what he
could do for me. He listened to
them bugs plotting against my life,
and called them liars, and told them
that they were not going to do what
they thought they were. He said that
DR.. G. c. Hall had done the right
thing. ! tell you it was great He is
kept busy as usual. The Park Sani-
tarium is great place and DR.. H. w.
Conrad is good doctor. DR.. J. w.
Rankin is going to be there this
month. He needs some treatment,
and bugs are after him.
1t is wonderful how doctors can
put something to their ears and put
little fat thing against you and just
hear everything that is going on in
side. am so glad that 1 live in this
age. 1 will have more to say in
another letter.

Prior to playing today, TiIden looked

than at any time since his arrival in
France. In playing he accorded Mrs. Nal
lory his usual handicap. Remaining on
the base line he defeated her g. 6-S, al

shown thus far in her practice. Her driv-
ing was sharp and accurate and her loot

old sweater coat and three days
growth of beard, Dempsey was pre-
sented to Mr.. Daugherty before going
to his indoor gymnasium. The Attor-
ney General chatted with the champion
for a few minutes and then posed for
the pictures. After giving the cham
pion close up inspection, Mr.. Daugh-
erty said
You're bigger than I thought you
were. l saw you box Brennan and you
locked small then. / am glad to know
you, and 1 shall drop in every week

STREET REELECTED
B. A. c. PRESIDENT
AT ANNUAL, MEET

C. w. STREET., better know as bill" was
unanimously reelected president of the
birmingham Athletic club last night a.
the thirty-fourth annual election of Of
ficers by this organization. Karl Lam
grebe was unanimously elected vice presi-
dent, while r. d. Launey, willard Drake
and C. Nj. Shill were elected to the board
of governors for two years, and Clarence
McEachen for one year
The past year has been one Of the most
successful enjoyed by the club from every
standpoint, and no little credit for this
achievement is due last years officers
who did everything in their power to
make il n success. 1t is the belief of
many that last years record will even be
eclipsed this coming year. The fact tina;
the cdub will arrange to have semi
monthly boxing matches all summer will
contribute nightly to the work.
Some of the big things pulled off last
year by the club are undoubtedly lahu-
marks in the progress of the local or
ganization. Such things as the Alabama
High school basketball tournament
Southern A. A. U. boxing championships
ana the eleventh amman laNh vim
meet have placed the Magic City in the
eyes of all the sport loving population
of the south and have done much FOR
the progress OF the city.
The programme for the night consisted
OF several boxing matches, which were
exceptionally good. Ralph Josephs was
defeated by "Pinky" Happington in the
45-pound class in a fast and snappy
match. Paul Jones rather easily disposed
of Brades Jacques, showing plenty or
class Max Prouty and Bussle hlrA
fought to draw at 50 pounds.
Dummy harrington and Tommy VIII
son gave three-round exhibition, as
did pixie" Allen and Lamberth. Alien
showed lots of science and class.
The final bout ended in the second
round, when ''Bnf' Nances seconds
threw in the towel. giving the match
to Frank Chestan. Chestain's youth ana
vigor was too much for the rather aged
Nance.
