DEATH
XV.
OF POPE BENEDICT
AT ROME, ITALY
Early Sunday morning or late Sat
urday night, Pope Benedict the XV,
who was born November 21tj 18a4,
peacefully closed his eyes in death,
after a short illness.
Pope Benedict the XV., was one
of the world's greatest human char
acters. He wa invested with his
great power as Pope, or ruler over
the Roman Catholic world, in Septem
ber. 1914, when the whole world (as
it were) was being drenched or
lathed in human blood. At that time
and ever afterwards, he used his great
power and influence in an effort to re
store peace and harmony throughout
the civilized world and to further stop,
the shedding of so much human blood
and the slaughter of millions of, hu
man beings.
Lile many of the Popes of olden
times, he ruled over his millions of fol
lowers with a golden rod, which
caused him to be held jn universal es
teem and the people of all races" and
creeds, were greatly pained to learn
that he had been gently gathered into
the arms of his Heavenly Father.

Ottawa, Ont Young women who

"without skirts," will be put out, the
Rev. Father O'Gorman, M. C, pastor
of the Church of the Blessed Sacra
ment, has announced.
Talking about ladies appearing on
the streets without skirts, several
weeks ago while walking on 35th st.,
near Vernon Ave., we came in con
tact with a lady whom we had met
several times prior to that time. She
is powerfully fine looking, a high
stepper and she weighs something less
than two hundred pounds. It was a
very cold morning when we ran into
her and she was bundled up around
her neck or head- with a big fur coat,
her dress struck her just above her
large or big knees and she, had her
so-called stockings rolled away down
imv and heinc old enough to be mar
ried four or five times and after look
ing her over from head to foot we ex
claimed. "Ladv. it seems to us that

THOUSANDS OF WHITE
PEOPLE ARE UNABLE
TO READ IN MISSISSIPPI
A bill to establish schools for adult
illiterates introduced by State Senator
Bell has been defeated in the upper
house of Mississippi legislature. The
Negro question was injected into the
debate and was reported to be the
main reason the bill was lost. The
need of such a bill in Msisissippi be
comes apparent when it is known that
23,921 white people in Mississippi can
not write, Mo say nothing of the 205,-
813 Negroes in the sanie - condition.
Mississippi is far down in the." list -of
states from an educational standpoint
and is destined, to remain so as long
as it allows its prejudice against
Negroes to prevent the passage and
enforcement of constructive legisla
tion. One out of every ten illiterates in
Mississippi is white; nine out of every
ten are Negroes. In spite of this, ac
cording to figures of the Research and
Records department of the Chicago
Urban League, almost half of the
Negroes of school age and over one
fourth of the white people of school
age. are not in school; fromthis it
can be easily seen that though there
may be slight improvement in Missis
sippi's condition it is destined to be
a "backwoods state" for a long time
yet unless it changes its attitude. Thus
prcdudice hurts white as well as black.
WILL TEST THE RIGHT OF
COLORED MEN TO SIT ON
THE JURIES IN TEXAS
Austin, Texas. The right of
Negroes to have members of their
. ... . . , . . .l..
race on the juries which indict them
is to be tested in the Supreme Court
of the United States. Charles Brad
ford was convicted of assault to mur
der before the 37th District Court of
Bexar County and sentenced to seven
years imprisonment. The state court
of Criminal Appeals affirmed the
judgment of the trial court, but later
a writ of error was granted and the
case will go on to the United States
Supreme Court, but will be fought
hotlv bv the state officials. The peti
tion to the Supreme Court gives the
following grounds for appeal.
No members of his race and color
were permitted or allowed to serve or
sit upon the grand jury which indicted
him, but were excluded on account of
their race and color and for no other
reason. All members of his race were
and have been so excluded and pre
vented from serving on the grand
jury in tne Jttexar court ior many
years. This discrimination amounts
to a violation of the first section of
the Fourteenth Amendment by deny
ing equal protection of law.

GERMAN JUDGE REFUSES TO
O. K. NAKED DANSEUSE
Berlin. A cold hearted judge turned
thumbs down on an attempt by Cclly
de Rheydt, celebrated German- naked
dancer, to attempt to prove her work
is art for art's sake, drawing a. parallel
with Phrync of ancient times, who
danced nude to persuade a judge of
her chastity.
Celly and her husband were fined
37,000 marks, the judge taking ad
vantage of a new German law permit
ting money fines in place of jail.
"It has been testified," said the
judge, "that the announcer at the cab
aret where Cclly was appearing coun
seled the audience to have patience,
because Celly had not nished undress
ing. "If it really was an artistic act it
was Celly's duty to file an immediate
protest against this disgusting joke
of the announcer."
After all it would not hurt nor harm
anyone if the dear sweet ladies would
be permitted everywhere and at all
times to appear absolutely naked, for
by doing so they would simply be
leading us back to the way that our
fore parents, the baboons and the
other four-footed animals dressed for
as a matter of fact, they never wore
any clothing at all and they never had
anything to cover up or uncover and
it would be far more sanitary and
healthful for the present day ladies to
imitate our fore fathers, the monkeys
in that respect for at the present time
they come mighty near showing
everything which should be covered
up or over or concealed or hid away
out of sight. Editor.
Madam M. Callaway Byron, and her
daughter. Miss Nellie Byron, are
greatly enjoying these cold winter
days at Los Angeles, Cal.

DEATH OF COL. CHARLES
YOUNG OF THE UNITED
STATES ARMY ON THE WEST
COAST OF AFRICA.
Col. Charles Young, who was a
graduate of West Point, who was con
sidered the most efficient colored
military officer in the United States
army who for'many years commanded
the far-famed Tenth Cavalry, recently
passed away at Lagos, Nigeria, West
Africa, and his remains were laid to
rest at that place about fifteen days
ago.
As stated before, CoL Young was a
graduate of West Point, and at the
time of his death he was about 51
years old.
A son and daughter attending
school in Belgium, and a wife in New
York City, survive him.
Col. Young, at the time of his
death, was on active duty as Military
Attache to Liberia, with headquarters
at Monrovia. During the Spanish
American War he was commander of
the 9th Ohio separate battalion. He
was also military attache to Haiti and
subsequently served a term of duty
as military advisor to the Liberia gov
ernment. He was retired in 1917 at
the time the United States was in war
with Germany. This caused a storm
of protest throughout the country.
Colonel Young was one of the best
known and most efficient of the Col
ored officers in the Army.
Hon. Lawrence F. King, President
of the Trustes of the Sanitary District
of Chicago, will leave no stones un
tuned in his effort to secure the re
nominations of Hon. James H. Law
ley, and Hon. Matt. A. Mueller, as
Trustees for that district.
