Chicago, ILL.,, Nov. 24.-The expect
ed came to pass here within the past
week with the reported failure of the
American Athletic Club, a proposed
two million dollar pleasure club, pro-
NOTED by white enthusiasts for the
benefit of Negroes. Announcement
of the proposition was made with
considerable blaring of trumpets and
caused a considerable stir among the
so-called monied Negroes. Member
ship fees were to have been 5000 a
year. Fees already collected are be-
ing returned. In the big drive for
membership the Negroes of this city
and the region hereabout contributed
something over three hundred dollars
toward the s2,000,000 club.
