LATEST TRIAL NEWS
Harry B. Watkins testified that Garvey and the Black Star Line band took a stock-selling trip that cost $9,000, and they sold $9,000 worth of stock.
He also testified that Garvey's secretary wanted to be assigned to his sleeping room during the trip.
In Youngstown, O. Watkins said he was arrested for selling stock, and Garvey escaped by hiding behind a tree.
Judge Mack ruled it will be necessary to hold night sessions to get thru.
With sensation following sensation, the trial of Marcus Garvey, charged with using the mails to defraud, is about to enter its third week. The case is being heard by Judge Mack and a jury in the Federal Court. Garvey, who dismissed his attorney C. W. McDougall, is defending himself with the assistance of two white lawyers, Garvey himself, however, doing most of the cross-examining.
Used $1,000,000
As promoter of the Black Star Line of steamers proposed to ply between here and Africa, Garvey is declared to have used $1,000,000 of the stockholders' money in the purchasing of worthless ships. Part of the money, it is charged, was also used to promote other business enterprises like restaurants and stores owned by the U. N. I. A. Captain Adrian Richardson, former skipper on the Black Star Line steamer, Kanawha, on the stand two days, told the court that his boat was worthless when Garvey bought it.
"You're a Thief"
"Tell the court," said Garvey "what you know about me." Capt. Richardson: "You're a sporting piker. You live a high life. You're squandered other people's money on automobiles, your women and at the races. Yes, you're a silver-tongue. but a thief and anti-American. You wax fat on the race you have skinned." Do you feel toward me? said Garvey. "I'd like to see you (Garvey) in a ring somewhere with nobody around. I'd beat you up, or you'd beat me." Richardson answered. "Would you like to see me wall out of this courtroom a free man?" Garvey persisted. "Yes—so I could have a chance to get a ride. Every time I've seen you in Harlem you have forty bodyguards and nobody can get a attack at you." Richardson replied. "Garvey Uses Monkier.

AUDIENCE SAYS BLACK, JUDGES SAY HEBREW
New York, May 29—Playing together in Keith's Royal Vaudeville House where they have been given a two week's stay following their winning the national mount organ contest, Herbert Leonard and Benny Kossover, Hebrew, took fourteen bows and stopped the show.
Herbert played the Wang Wang Blues, and a real Florida hoo-down, after which the audience was tied up into such knots that the critics termed it a "viot", a "panic", a "wow" and a "yell".
Atlantic City, N. J., May 31.—If left to the audience, Herbert Leonard, aged 17, and black, would now be the champion mouth organ play-
er in the United States. It was left to the judges how ever who decided that Herbert belonged in fourth place. There followed a demonstration in which the judges were wooed and hissed by the boy's white audience, and made a feel that they had grievous错.
the contestants were required to play "Home, Sweet Home" and Marching Through Georgia" at the start. This got Herbert into difficulties immediately. Down in Florida, where Herbert comes from they shoot people for playing "Marching Through Georgia," and so Herbert never had a chance to hear the "damn Yankee" tune. There was a long conference, and finally he was allowed to play "Silver Threads, Among the Gold" instead.
The Wang Wang Blues
But it was with his "Wang Wang Blues" that he stamped the crowd. Utterly oblivious of the throng he was facing, a black Pan playing his pipes, he cut loose on the wild assortment of jazz notes that bears a title only by courtesy and for convenience. The crowd thrilled to the weirful jungle strain. They may have been no further away from the lake but they were Herbert at the lake but he had them back in the jungle with him at the finish. Then he stopped and the applause was unintelligible.

Chicago.—Speaking under the auspices of the local N. A. A. C. P. at Bethel A. M. E. Church before 3,500 people, Congressman L. C. Dyer, (Rep. Mo.), father of the Anti-Lynching Bill, put the blame for that measure's defeat in the United States' Senate after passing the House by an overwhelming majority, squarely and unequivocally at the door of the Republican Senators.
Congressman Dyer said, "I am not on this speaking tour in the interest of any party campaign; I am fighting for human justice; but if you people in Chicago want to make life safe for 10,000,000 jim-crowed, disfranchised, maltreated colored people in the Southland, you must rise up against men in public office like your own Senator Medill McCormick, who was in Europe when the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill was called on the floor of the United States Senate.

New Kensington, Pa., May 31.—Arthur Whitaker, sentenced eighteen months ago to the electric chair for the murder of a white druggist here, was freed today.
Whitaker was convicted upon rather flimsy evidence by Dr. Klapp's common-law wife. Through efforts of the Lucy Luney Art Club, composed of such well-known women as Mrs. Jennie Carter-Dobblins, Mrs. Susie Spencer, and Mrs. Lee Huckaby, and Attorney-Curtis Gregg, a new trial was granted. The women raised $265.
The jury was out only fifteen minutes before it brought in a verdict of not guilty.

Easton Head Waiter
Charged With Murder
Easton, Pa., May 30. (Special)—Self-defence is the plea of Alexander Lovings, a Jamaican, head waiter at the Karlddon Hotel, in jail here charged with killing Donald Huebler, white, son of the hotel owner.
Lovings and Kuebler had frequent quarrels, and the youth had been told by the manager to keep out of the dining room and take his meals in the kitchen. Crashed out by the waiter Saturday night, Kuebler armed himself with a table leg and told his friends he was "going to get Lovings." The killing followed.
Mrs. Loving, at first prostrated over the killing, is busy attempting to raise $4,500 fee to pay J. W. Fox, a local attorney, to defend her husband.
STEADY STREAM OF BLACK MEN MOVING NORTH
New York City, May 31.—From all sections of the South, a steady stream of black men is moving northward.
This is the statement issued by the National Industrial Conference Board, 10 E. 32th Street, which estimates that Negroes are leaving the South at the rate of 17,000 per month.
"Negroes from Georgia and the Carolinas are coming to the Atlantic Seaboard states and New England. Negroes of Alabama, Mississippi and Tennessee to the middle Western States and Negroes from Arkansas and Louisiana are moving into the states further West."
Whites Praise Negro Labor
One large Northern firm says of its colored labor: "We have employed Negroes in the shops for a great many years. In looking back over their service record we find continuous service records of five years, ten years, fifteen years, twenty years, twenty-five years, and even thirty years. These Negroes have faithfully, loyally and honestly performed the service that was required of them. I have found that the men who came to the shop could not only do skilled work, but would also maintain a standard of quality and production as established in the shop."
Pittsburg Needs 8,000
The labor shortage in Pittsburgh is reported as so acute that it is estimated that 8,000 laborers and several hundred semi-skilled workers are needed at once. In New Jersey one construction company, unable to get colored workers, is hiring fifty-five Chinese. Colored ministers in Mississippi in a lengthy statement declared that Negroes are leaving the State because for every dollar spent on Negro children for education, twenty dollars is spent, white child, Hispcoele, reformatories, hospitals, colleges, blind hospitals and smooth streets are built out of State funds, ministers say, for whites only although Negroes are also taxed. Inability to vote and injustice in the courts were also cited.

ARKANSAS MOB THREATENS LIFE OF N. Y. BISHOP
ARKANSAS MOB THREATENS LIFE OF N. Y. BISHOP
Rt. Rev. P. A. Wallace, of A. M. E. Zion Church Struck With Poker and Chair
LOCKED IN MAYOR'S OFFICE
Threatening Mob Declared
He 'Sassed' 20-Year-Old
White Station Porter
Warren, Ark., May 30 (K.
C. Call News Service)—Is it
possible for a venerable bishop
to "sass" a 20-year-old
youth?
This was the claim of a
white mob, which took Bishop
P. A. Wallace from his
stopping place, locked him
up in the office of the Mayor,
threatened him with gun and
rope and struck him with a
chair until town officials rescued him.
Bishop Wallace, whose hope is
in Brooklyn, N. Y., was on his
way to Walters University here
to deliver the boccalaureate sermon,
driving in the station during the
rain, he took shelter inside
awaiting the auto to take him to
the school grounds.
At this point the 20-year-old
white, station porter, announced
that it was time to close the
station and "you dam niggers take
your baggage and go out!"
Bishop Wallace demonstrated with
the youth and in reply received two
blows from a stove poker and
threats to "get you tonight."
Later in the evening the bishop was called from the house by an auto load of men looking for the "migger who had an argument with a white man at the station." Bishop Wallace was locked up in the Mayor's office, and then laid over him. Abused, threatened, cursed and hit by a chair in the hands of this guard, the prelate was finally rescued by school authorities who had gotten the mayor out of bed. Authorities refused to prosecute the porter or the members of the mob, on the ground that no Arkansas jury would believe the word of a black man against a white, and if Bishop Wallace came to court, his charges, he would probably be lynched. Grady Arkansas May 30, 1800 colored men were disappointed here when a look for train failed to show up to carry them into Northern industrial fields.

Divorces Instituted
Mrs. Edna N. Ashby vs Zebedee Ashby.
What there are still good pickings for film-flammers here in Baltimore was shown this week by two nifty jobs pulled off in different parts of the city. Ralph Fernandez, 122 S. Madison street, was the victim of the old lost pocketbook game when William Timberlake, alias William Jones, and a friend held a $5 watch and chain and $15 in cash while they "made change" for a healthy roll which they were unable to take. They could have been holding it but for the fact that the police apprehended Timberlake from descriptions given. Police say he is one of the smoothest crooks in several cases. Issue 114ward, 45, 212 McCullah street, lost $5 when he allowed two other film-flammers to take it temporarily, in the hope of its return $50 besides. This job was pulled off as he was leaving the depot.

CHURCHES
DR. BROOKS' FUNERAL
HELD AT ANNAPOLIS
Asbury Church Crowded By Visitors From New York and Baltimore
Remains Brought to Baltimore and Interred At Mt.
Annapolis, May 29. — Final
tributes to Rev. Dr. W. H. Brooks,
who until his retirement on account
of its health from the pastorate
of St. Mark's M. E. Church,
New York City, had served a quarter
of a century there, were paid
at Ashury M. E. Church last Satu
urday.
As sold in last week's AFRO-
AMERICAN, Dr. Brooks died on
Wednesday of last week at his
parole.
home near Carroll. The principal enology was delivered by Rev. Dr. Wallace M.Cullen, superintendent of the New York District of the New York Conference, in which St. Mark's Church is located. Others who spoke were Fred. P. Moore, editor of the New York Age, Rev. Dr. J. W. Robinson, who succeeded the deceased minister, Rev. Dr. Ernest Leon, Dr. Brooks' immediate predecessor of St. Mark's Church, and Professor Erick A. Cullen, pastor of Salem M. E. Church, New York City, Dr. C. A. Curry and Rev. M. L. Nagher, Rev. A. J. Michel was a charge of the services and prechaed the funeral sermon.
The services were attended by a number of ministers of the Washington M. E. Conference, with which the deceased was at first connected; about sixty members of St. Mark's Church and several prominent New Yorkers, the casket, a steel one, was hidden with floral tributes, most of which came from New York. In attendance was in the family lot at M. Alburn Cemetery, Baltimore, Rev. W. H. Dean, J. M. Beane and B. T. Perkins were the ministerial pathologists.
Born in Maryland
The deceased minister was born in Calvert County September 6, 1906. He was educated at Morgan College and Howard University. While pastoring in New York he studied at New York University and in 1919 took a special course in France.
Under his pastorate the work at St. Mark's Church grew in importance. Just a few months prior to his fatal illness he completed a deal by which the church was to move from 53rd street to handsome quarters in Harlem. Dr. Brooks was the first chapman of the Fifteenth Regiment of New York. He was connected with a number of organizations looking toward racial uplift. He was married in 1892 to Miss Sarah Carroll, a daughter of Rev. N. M. Carroll, Five children, four of whom survive. His home at Camp Parole was not complete when he was forced to move to the pastorate at St. Mark's Church in April, and he stayed with Rev. A. J. Mitchell until twelve days before his death when he moved into his home where he expected to regain his health.

Influx From South Leaves 90,000
Without Place to Worship
New York City, May 31.—(Asso.

from the South has made it neces-
tary to provide more churches
here. All of the churches in the

on Sunday, only 40,000 can go to
church, leaving 90,000 colored per-
ses for whom there is no place to

THE AFRO-AMERICAN
WHATCOAT CHURCH AFTER MIGRANTS
Reaching the non-churchgoing people of the vicinity of Whatcow M. E. Church, Franklin and Pine streets, is a problem that is being attacked by Rev. R. F. Coates and his co-workers. Committees are now out making a thirty-day canvass of the neighborhood and hope thereby to attract many to the church.
"It is not only the problem of reaching the unsaved that we should attack." Rev. Coates told a representative of The Afro-American" but those who have migrated here and have not renewed their church affiliations.
"You know, I am a firm believer in Christianity, having professed religion when ten years of age. I may not have understood things so
well then, but as the years have gone on my knowledge has increased.
"I enlisted in the army during the Spanish American War. Many times as I lay on the ground I heard them cursing all around me, but that did not deter me from
serving God, I was shot three times and served in the Phillipines, but I am still here serving God. The temptations have been great, but the start I made when I was ten years of age was what kept me straight. That is why we are so much interested in rounding up the non-churchgoers of the neighborhood.

Vaudeville and Pictures
The stage attraction at the Star this week is Bush and Alexander's Musical Company Revue, which comprise, besides the two mentioned Hooks and Little Jeff, male duo Stella Jones and Gladys Davis. Miss Bush is an experienced player who knows the art of stage entertainment from A to Izzard, while Alexander has few equals as a hoofer of the soft shoe type. The funnimaking is contributed by Hooks and Jeff, the former also being a nifty shaker of his pedal extremities in the buck type of stepping. Pictures complete the bill.
CAREY "The Virgin's Paradise"
The initial feature of special note at the Carey Monday will be "The Virgin's Paradise," starring Pearl White, the popular favorite of millions of screen fans, young and old. Tuesday, the special attraction will be the great drama of mother love, "Over The Hill." This picture when first released created the greatest sensation of any drama dealing with the legacy of Painters by their children ever produced. The theme of the drama tells of a "black sheep" brother of a family of several children who is the favorite of his mother, whom he loves deeply. He goes away but sends money home to her through a hypocritical brother who, instead of turning the money over to his mother uses it for his own benefit. In course of time, the other children who have all married and gone their separate ways, allow the old lady to be sent to the poorhouse, where the son living in the house instead is living in such circumstances as the money he had constantly been sending her would have possible.
How he finds this brother beats him and drags him through the streets of the village toward the poorest is only one of a series of the most gripping scenes ever witnessed on the screen, the life of the mother, and Johnny sheep is the "black sheep" son.
On Thursday, another big feature will be offered in "Hose O' The Sea" starring Anita Stewart. Special attention is called to the first chapter of "Hamunt Valley," a story of the Francis Ford supporting the famous serial queen, which will be shown on Friday of this week.

"Could we follow more closely the methods of Jesus, in his establishment of allegorical preaching, we could go further in advancing Christianity. He had a parable for every class and group," declared Rev. E. N. Thomas of Camp Parole in a paper before A. M. E. ministers Monday.

Champ. Tire Changer
Needed Only 29 Sec.
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Akron, Ohio, May 30.—"The champion tire changer of America," is the proud title now worn by Walter Thurman, colored tire mechanic of Memphis. He won the contest held here under the auspices of the National Tire Association from contestants from all parts of the United States and Canada.
Thurman changed a single tire in 20 seconds, breaking the 32½-second record held by Kennedy, whom he displaces as champion. The Memphis lad changed six assorted tires, large and small, in five (5) minutes and 29 seconds, and three (3) acres, during them, ready to ride, in the time mentioned. Thurman has been a tire repairman in Memphis for 10 years.

Youngste Had Be Nigh
nap Boy and insensible 15
Waycross, Georgia, May 31—John Carter, 22, a bellhman, was taken from his home by three men who claimed they were members of the Ku Klux Klan and they beat him almost into insensibility. Because they claimed he was serving in the capacity of a clerk at the Phoenix Hotel, Waycross, Ga., clerk, who is from Port Wayne, Ind., and a very intelligent acting man, had been working at the hotel for about five days as bellhman.
The hotel management observes this unusual intelligence inquiries pertaining to office work, allowed Carter to serve both as bellhop and clerk after the white belt left every night. This apparently was displeasing to some of the patrons of the hotel and they decided to get rid of Carter and he was thus abducted about 11 o'clock by the three white-roed men. Before the party reached the scene on the road where they were to show her how "white men treat" Nero who served in the army of a white man," he beat him with their fists and backs.
Upon arrival at the fifteen-mile post, they took the young man of the car, beat him, tied his hands and beat together and then gathered some branches and prepare to make a fire in which they threatened to burn him. He begged not to be burnt and upon his promise to leave Waycross they decided not to attack him, match to a "white man's job," again to jump into their machine and left the young man in the woods. He managed to get back to Waycross and left on the first train. His head bears several tears from the blackjacks which the three men used on him and his body is covered with wheels from the sticks. Another indisputable reason why so many Negroes are leaving the South.

Garvey used his gold monocle frequently to examine various documents presented by witnesses in the trial.
When Richardson used the word propaganda in describing circular Garvey sent out seeking investors in Black Star stock Garvey demanded a definition and asked the witness to spell the word. Richardson declined.
**Supporter is Jailed**
Charles Leonon, a Garvey supporter, 209 W. 63rd street, was sentenced to two months in jail for intimidating government witnesses. Captain Hugh Mulzaid said Leonon promised to get him if he (Mulzaid) testified against Garvey.
Richardson testified also that Garvey often went out bearing the face of the company in the hands of Marcus Garvey's "princess" Miss Amy Jacques, now Mrs. Marcus Garvey.
Edgar Gray, formerly Garvey's private secretary, testified that some of the money raised for the Black Star Line went to pay off other debts incurred by the U. N. I. A.

"I realized that when Mr. Garvey asked to act as his own lawyer that delay would be unavoidable," responded Judge Mack, "but that is his constitutional privilege. I have given him infinitely more leeway than I would have given any lawyer."

"Did you send several bottles of whiskey to the president of Cuba?" "Did the crew steal some whiskey?" "Were you drunk at any time during the trip?" "Did you ever marry a white woman?" Most of the questions were overruled as irrelevant. However, when Garvey asked him if he ever invited guests aboard the Yarmouth to treat them to Green River whiskey, Cockburn promptly answered: "Yes, indeed. Your instructions were to entertain stockholders and prospective stockholders of the Blue Stork Line."

PUNISHMENT SHOULD BE SWIFT AND SURE SAYS STATES ATT'Y
Mr. Leach Comments on Afro Article Showing Number of Rape Cases Dismissed
WOULD CHANGE LAW
Public Opinion and Jurors
Also Should Be "Jacked-Up"
Commenting on the news story in last week's AFRO touching the violation of young girls and punishment meted out, State's Attorney Leach old this paper that this was a matter that he will give special attention. The State's Attorney said in part:
I am not familiar with the details of the particular cases which have been called to my attention by your papers. I have, however, felt for a long time that there is a lack of stringency in dealing with offences against children.
In the first place, the law itself is not sufficiently stringent; the age of consent ought to be raised; the provision allowing males made under eight years of age to escape under certain conditions ought to be repealed.
Then again the whole body of public opinion on the subject needs "jacking up" to the end that juries may be led to take a more serious view of this glass of offence. Such changes one brought about, would no doubt, so impress the judges, that they too, would have the seriousness of their views intensified if I should have so range the law and its enforcement that the punishment of those who violated females of tender years, would be swift and drastic.
LAXITY OF PARENTS CAUSE OF DOWNFALL
The laxity of many parents in looking after the welfare of their daughters was manifest in Criminal Court Part 1 on Wednesday of last week when den N. Wilson was acquitted in a charge of knowing Lillian Thompson, a 14-year-old girl. 1457 Kings avenue.
Attorney Lewis S. Flagg, Jr., who represented Wilson, brought out in examination that the girl was not chaste, that she had met Wilson on the street at 5 o'clock in the morning and stayed with him for three days at a house on Lafayette avenue.
A 13-year-old girl, who was with Lillian, testified that she slept with Wilson and the girl. No charge could be preferred against Wilson, however, in connection with the 13-year-old girl, as they had sustained no immoral relations.
After deliberating a short time, the judge issued a warrant of not guilty. It was whispered around the courthouse that the verdict might have been otherwise had not the girl been shown to be lax. This was the 15th such case before the Court this year.

'Kids' Ga Brown's
Over 500 pupils were the guests of Captain George Brown on an excursion to Browns Grove last Saturday afternoon. The day was ideal for all, dressed in swimsuits, lying horses and other antiparticles were put through a self workout. Mr. George E. Murphy, principal of the school, several of the teachers and a number of the parents looked after the youngsters. Other schools will have similar Saturday outings free.
Many new improvements have been added this year to the Grove, and others are in contemplation. The most noted of the present season is facilitating for bathing. The bath houses for men and women are already built. Shower beds will also be a feature.
And then, a boat lake has been designed out, and those who like to cool an air will now be able to include this pleasure. In addition to the other improvements, he has built 20 bungalows which have been pointed to white tombs because coloured people will not take them.
The ground is gradually being bevelled and eventually he intends to fill in all the low places which will eventually add to the beauty of the garden grove.
As evidence of the value of the captain John Brown told the writer that he had been offered $15,000 for it by a business man.

HUGHES PERSECUTED SAYS CONGRESSMAN
J. Philip Hill Speaks In Behalf of Political Ally Accused of Selling Liquor
CASE CALLED FRAME-UP
U. S. District Attorney Said To Be Trying To Railroad Prisoner
"U. S. District Amos W. Woodcock and others are trying to railroad Frank E. Hughes because of his political friendship to me" declared Representative John Phillip Hill in U. S. District Court Tuesday.
Hughes, who conducts a lunchroom on Somerset street, and who is a well known politician of East Baltimore, was being tried for selling a drink of whiskey to a prohibition agent, Jonathan Paul. Representative Hill, who appeared at the trial for Hughes declared in his address to the jury that Woodcock and other members of the Republican machine were prosecuting his client, not because of any law violation, but because of his political activities in his behalf. Hughes was guilty for his prosecutorial Hill when the latter was running to be a delegate to the Republican convention in Chicago.
Says Case Is Frame-up
Mr. Hill also stated that he believed the whole case a frame-up. Only one had seen the alleged sale of whiskey and that the prosecution had stumbled over many big things to get at this little offense.
He also declared that this was his first appearance in court and that he would be his last, but he could not see fractional politics injected into a case of this sort without protest.
On the witness stand Hughes denied the charge that he had sold the whiskey to the prohibition agent.
When District Attorney Woodcock went before the jury to close his case before being prosecuted against the bill, declaring that the evidence in the case was given by disinfected government agents.
Parents were urged to not only keep their children in the elementary schools, but to send through high school and college, if possible, by Mrs. R. E. Food and others speaking before the meeting of the "Parent Teachers" Association of School 100, Motting and Saratoga streets, last Friday night.

Not a day passes but what thousands of people ask the questions: What is Herbs of Life? Why its phenomenal success? Why do we hear so much about it? The answer to these questions is not difficult.
Herbs of Life, Nature's Medicine, is a wonderful Reconstructive Tonic and body-builder. It is purely vegetable and is made from the most beneficial roots, herbs and bark known to science. The medicinal properties are readily taken up by the system, the actively active ingredients and assisting the omnich in converting the food into nourishing elements that build up tissue and nerve strength. There is probably not a single portion of the body that is not benefited by the helpful action of this remarkable medicine.
The system, besides being purified by Herbs of Life, is toned up and invigorated. It quickly overcomes indigestion, non-assimilation of the food, nervousness, headache, backache, general debility and many other complaints that are so common to the thousands of half sick, depressed men and women.
Herbs of Life was designed primarily for the correction of disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels. At the same time, as stated above, it is a powerful Reconstructive Medicine, for it naturally follows that any medicine that brings about proper assimilation of the food and thorough elimination of waste products must possess a for a far-reaching and most beneficial effect upon the entire system.
Probably eighty per cent, of all diseases originate in the digestive organs. Dyspepsia, or what is more commonly known as indigestion, is not only one of the most prevalent.

ANOTHER 13-YR.-OLD
ASSAULTED BY MAN
Elijah Foley Stands Mute When Little Child Tells Magistrate Story of
Crime
To date 16 girls under 14 years of age have been mistreated since the first of the year. Elizabeth Valentine, a school girl of twelve years charged Elijah H. Foley, a chauffeur roaming at the same house with abusing her last Saturday night. He was held for the action of the Grand Jury by Magistrate Rholeder of the Northeastern District.
Elijah H. Foley, 23, 1223 Ashland Avenue, was held for the action of the Grand Jury Monday charged with criminally abusing 13-year-old Elizabeth Valentine of the same address.
According to her testimony told at the hearing Monday afternoon at the Northeastern Police Station, she was alone Saturday evening about 9:30 when Foley came home and after earringing her took her of the second story of the building and abused her. About this time her father came in and hearing the noise found Foley hiding under the bed.
Not being certain what had happened the father was restrained from doing the man bodily harm and called for the police who arrested him. Foley admitted the girls that Foley staged that it had occurred before and that he did not use force.
The fact that the girl is under 14 years of age, however, makes his act the same as statutory rape according to the laws of Maryland and he was held without bond for the action of the Grand Jury. Foley is a chauffer and has been a roomer in the same house with the parents of the girl for some time.

but is one of the most difficult to
treat of all present day diseases, and
has for years befitted the skill of
leading specialists. It is almost all
ways followed by a complication of
diseases. One of the first toid
liver with biliousness, followed by
headache, coated tongue, dizzy spells,
pain in the back, palpitation of the
heart, and other distressing symptoms.
Soon other organs of the
body become involved and various
disagrees develop and become chronic
if not checked in time. The first
symptoms of stomach disorders, such
as gas, sourness, constipation, foul
breath, fullness after eating, pains
in the stomach, headache, tired feeling,
lack of energy, should be the
signal for prompt and decisive ac-
tion.
Tens of thousands of men and women, of all ages and in all walks of life, afflicted with stomach and liver disorders, some of them of long standing, as well as thousands of weak, thin, nervous men and women apparently on the verge of collapse, have testified publicly that they have been fully restored to the enjoyment of perfect health by taking Herbs of Life. Tens of thousands have not only been relieved of the most obstinate forms of dyspepsia and indigestion by Herbs of Life after other remedies had failed, but many of them have reported a remarkable and rapid increase in weight along with their return to normal health and strength.
That is the reason Herbs of Life continues, year after year, to have the largest sale of any medicine of its kind in the world.

Attorney George L. Pendleton, who was engaged to represent Brown, got the girl's parents to agree to her marriage. As she is only sixteen years of age they went down to the Courthouse and secured the license, and licence the Brownns and Attorney Pendleton proceeded to the City Jail.
With the Baltimore Jail as the church and the steel harped floor of Section Three as the altar, Miss Helen Burkett, of 1123 Race St., and Elijah F. A. Brown, of Warner street, became man and wife last Friday. The ceremony was performed by Rev. W. F. Dickerson, pastor of Mt. Vernon Baptist Church.
The unusual ceremony over congratulations were given all around and Attorney Hendley hustled back to the Courthouse to secure the release of the young man so that he could rejoin his bride.
Sunday-School Teachers Resign When Alleged "Untrained" Minister Is Called
Members Claim He Formerly Worked In Dye Industry
A strong minority is opposing the continuance of Rev. Luke G. Reynolds as acting pastor of Trinity Baptist Church, a position which he has been filling since the death of Rev. Dr. James R. L. Diggs.
He claims that he was chosen acting pastor and asserts that he will remain so. The minutes read at a church meeting state that he was elected acting pastor by the deacons on a motion offered by himself, fixing his salary at $100 a month and tenure at eighteen months.
Some of the objectors claim that he had no right to sit with the deacons and offer motions for them to vote on.
Objection is also made to him on the ground that he is a man of limited education and that the church needs a pastor to lead the recently-deceased one. Dr. Diggs was a college graduate having earned the degree of doctor of philosophy.
Was Dye Worker
Rev. Reynolds went to Washington about fourteen years ago from college and employed by the Washington Dyeing and Cleaning Company. He was a member of the Third Baptist Church Washington. The pastor, Rev. G. O. Bullock, is said to have refused to ordain him on the ground that he is not a high school graduate.
worked in Washington transferred him to its Baltimore branch and he joined Trinity Baptist Church. When Dr. Diggs was about to go to John Hopkins Hospital for an operation, he asked Rev. Jones now at Cape May to take charge, but the latter could not do so. He also asked Dr. W. T. Coleman to preach the first Sunday he was in the hospital, but other engagements prevented his acceptance. Then Mr. Reynolds was asked to help out that Sunday. He did so, had some ministers connected with the Colored Baptist Convention to help him, and appointed the following Thursday night. He has been acting as pastor since. Several stormy church meetings have been held and at the one scheduled for next Tuesday night, live times are anticipated.
One result of the fight is that Linwood K. Goger has resigned as superintendent of the Sunday-school, Thomas A. Williams as assistant superintendent, Mrs. W. T. Coleman, as director of music, Miss Bertha Scott as treasurer, and Miss Camille Gwathney as a teacher. Should Mr. Reynolds continue as pastor a split is threatened, which would take with it some of the most active, intelligent and substantial members of the congregation. "Our chief objection to Mr. Reynolds is that he is a man of little education; one of the numbers told is the AACMexico." Our church is situated in a neighborhood of highly intelligent people, and the congregation needs the best-equipped ministerable at least one who can
ter amanda. English. Dr. Diggs was one of the best educated men in the Baptist Church, and his successor should be no less equipped.

DISCUSSION FOLLOWS BOARD'S HOLD UP
Many People Discuss School Board's Delay in Filling Of Principalships
ECONOMY IS FALSE
View Is That Positions Are Kept Vacant To Save Money
The Lubilation by the AFROAMERICAN of the fact that the School Board is apparently needlessly prolonging the filling of the vacant principships at the Colored Teachers' Training School and School 103 has aroused much
One man who is well-informed about conditions in the colored schools has the following to say: "I hardly think the School board would have been so long in filling similar vacancies in the white schools. The salaries of the principals are saved for the time being, while those acting as principals may only receive an extra hundred dollars for their services. "We should be mindful of the fact that there is plenty of material right here in Baltimore for the vacancy that has existed at the Training School since the death of Prof. Joseph H. Lockerman. "The men for the job are right in the school system. They have delibuted their lives to elementary school work and many have more to equip themselves than is required. They know what teacher training is."
I believe that from a professional standpoint the colored men are ahead of the whites in the elementary schools of the city. One reason for this is that, proportionally, there are a larger number of colored men teaching than white men. Thus the majority of principals in white schools are elderly women and I do not think that is generally conceded that a woman's administrative abilities equal those of a man. The few white men in the system are mostly at the head of junior high schools, which means increased pay. We have no junior highs and that means the whites in juveniles lose that continuity which would make them stay in school.
I believe the AFRO-AMERICAN is right in asking that these vacancies be filled now, but would have it also contend for Junior high schools and for the recognition of property-carrying students. The spirit of false economy may cause our school board to announce in June that the principalships have been filled, but that the appointments are as of September 1. 1923.
We must get more civic and community spirit if we would get those things that are rightly one.
WANT A FARM?
Rev. J. G. Martin is Giving Them Away Up Town
If you are an expert farmer or can just do a little, a plot of ground awaits you at the corner of Laurens and Calhoun street, or the east side of Payne Memorial, A.M. M. K. James, G. Martin, pastor of the church, has secured control of all the vacant land in the neighborhood, which he has divided into small "farms." He gives the land the pretentious name of "Community Farms." The land has all been "plowed" and seeded sown, so that all one can see the entire estate has to do is to see Dr. Martin and he will cheerfully let her have a "farm" on which to grow "crops."
Garage Gutted By Fire Sunday
The garage of Theodore Lewis, at 1718 Eitting street, was completely gutted by fire about 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon, damaging two automobiles and an ice wagon. Charles White, 1712 Brunt street and Charles Booker, 1853 Punt street, were hit by fire and machines in the garage when they noticed smoke issuing from the building. They parked the car on Robert street and rushed into the burning garage which is a frame structure, and assisted by Walter Owens began running the machines out of the building, managing to save five of them before nearly being overcome by fire. The remaining machines were shoved out by firemen badly damaged. Mr. Lewis, owner of the garage resides at No. 5 N. Durham street and the extent of loss has not yet been determined.

FOLLOWED RECIPE SAYS CAKE BAKER
Mrs. Rebecca Owens, Who Won $15 for Second Best Cake Talks To Reporter
LEMON PIES FAVORITE
And Mrs. Owens Tells Afro Readers How To Make Them
Mrs. Rebecca Owens, 405 Gilmore street, who was selected as second ($15) prize winner in the recent cake-baking contest conducted by the Aero-American and the Royal Faking Powder Company, when found by an Aero reporter, seemed very much pleased with her success in the competition.
"I followed the recipe and my prize cake was the result," was her comment.
"This is not the first prize I have won at cake baking," she told the reporter. "I have been trying to create better cakes every since I was nine years old. I have worked at different places as a pastry maker, and every one seemed to like my pastries. I like to cook and bake, but lemon pies are my favorites." "Would you give me your recipe for lemon pie?" Mrs. Owens was asked by the reporter, who by the way was fortunate enough to taste that prize cake. "Well," she said, "I never use any written recipe, but I will try to give it to you as correctly as possible. I use 1 lemon, ½ cup sugar, ½ cup water, ½ cup milk, 2 tablespoons flour, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch. I water and milk, then add the cornstarch and flour. Let this boil for about 5 minutes, add a pinch of salt, half of grated lemon rind and the juice of one lemon. Add the sugar and yolks of two eggs to the cornstarch mixture.
"For the crust take 2 tablespoons of shortening to % of a cup of flour, % teaspoon of Royal Baking Powder and a pinch of salt. Bake pastry first, then put filling into crust after cold. For merangue, use the whites of 2 eggs, beat very stiff, and add 2 tablespoons of confectioners' sugar, put on pie and leave in moderate oven until brown."
And this reporter will say if the cake can speak for the pie, that will be some pie.

James S. Williams Invests Earnings in Kitchen, Factory and Brick Yard
BUYS FARM OUTSIDE CITY
Former Georgian Tells of Difficulty He Had Leaving the South
A kitchen for the poor, a comfort factory, and a five-kiln brick-yard are some of the things in which James S. Williams, former wealthy Georgia planter and cotton king, is investing his money here in Baltimore.
Just eleven months ago Mr. Williams decided to quit the South and come to a section of the country where he would not have to hide his hard-earned money in the woods to keep it and where he could breathe the free air of men. He selected Baltimore.
SAW HARDSHIPS IN SOUTH
For many years, because of the fact that for several successive seasons Mr. Williams won the prize offered by the Southern Cotton Growers' Association for the first hale of cotton ginned he was known as the Georgia cotton king. He owned a rich and fertile farmland and we said to have accumulated a competence in the neighborhood of $300,000 when a series of misfortunes, including the lynching of an only son and the sudden and unexplained death of his wife made him decide to quit the South. After making his plans he came to Baltimore last April and has since been quietly settling himself into the life and activities of the city.
HAS KITCHEN FOR
AGED POOR
The first thing Mr. Williams called to the attention of a representative of the AFRO-American, and the thing which he seems to be most proud is the kitchen he has established at his place on Pennsylvania avenue to distribute food and clothes to the aged poor. Mrs. Martha Snowden has charge of this kitchen and has served food daily to any poor and needy aged people who can be reached. At this place on Pennsylvania avenue, Mr. Williams also has in course of construction a $35,000 plant which when completed will in-
include a comfort factory with a capacity of employing 50 women, a three-story apartment and an office. On a 150-room farm, a student acquired near the Academy Junction building in course of construction a five-kiln brick yard. Here will also be conducted a lime kiln and rock crusher. This farm site, which was originally the old Dr. Adams' estate, is one of the richest farms in this area, and he is building here a $250,000 farm investment in properties at 641 and 523 Hoffman street, as well as 1115 Division street.
HAD DIFFICULTY IN LEAVING SOUTH
Men who have physical property in some parts of the South have much difficulty in getting it away said Mr. Williams. Although parently I had many white friends I had much difficulty in getting my effects away. With understanding the face to face South mistreats he faced men and women they don't want them to leave, and above all they don't want them to take wealth in Jasper County, Ga., in which Mr. Williams formerly conducted his farm, there are men of means he says, that would leave if they profitably dispose of their property.
THINKS BALTIMORE NEEDS MORE RACIAL CO-OPERATION
When asked what he thought of the city of his adoption, Mr. Williams said that the one thing needed here was more racial cooperation. I am working closely alone in the establishment of some business enterprise when if there were men willing to co-operate we could establish many times as much. Honesty and unselfishness in conducting business he thinks the key to his own success. If the colored people of this city would marshal its forces under unselfish organization along business lines it would be one of his most progressive communities in the world, he

The linguistic ability of Robert
Brown, 1417 N. Vincent street, met
ted him a sentence of exactly six
months in the House of Correction
Monday morning.
Brown passed Mitchell Brudckow, white, 65 N. Bond street, as he was tending an excavation near Vincent street, and a few sharp words passed between the two. Brudckow is a Russian and cannot speak the English language and some of the things he said to Brown did not sound like Russian Sunday-school words. So when Brown got through with him he looked like a piece of Swiss cheese.
"Why did you strike this man?" asked the Magistrate.
Brown—Judge—cussed me, Magistrate—What did he call you? Brown—Judge, I don't know what he said, but I know they were cus words.
Magistrate—Six months in the House of Correction.
Miss Cole
Gets Surprise
Miss Hattie Cole, 1227 High alley,
was pleasantly surprised Saturday
morning in the Northeastern Police
Station.
She was celebrating her 25th
arrest on the charge of disorderly con-
duct when Magistrate Rhodebeer, taking
cognizance of the occasion gave
her a surprise by cutting her regular
$25 line in $100.
"Duggee, I sure appreciate that,
she said as she wont out smilingly."
Can You
Solve This?
Something happened at 1032 Eutaw
street late Saturday night, but
just all about it the police would like
Miss Leona Debadenah, white (if you can call that name) and Miss Elizabeth Miller got into an alteration in which Miss Miller received several slashes about the body. When the police found her she was in hospital with her was Henry J. Johnson 1022 David Hill avenue. Miss Debadenah had disappeared.
At the Northwestern Police Court Monday morning the two seemed to have forgotten how the thing happened.
Dowdy testified that he was just passing and helped Miss, Miller out by taking her to the hospital. The only statement the Miller girl would make had been cut by the Debadenah girl.
Police are trying to find the girl so the mystery might be in some way solved.
37 ARRESTED IN POOL ROOM RAID
Fines totaling $90.65 were assessed against 37 devotees of a pool-room by Magistrate-at-large Larkins Sunday morning in the Northwestern District.
Joseph Castagno, white, who conducts the pool-room and against whom a charge of conduct a disorderly place was lodged was the only man who went free. According to the officers who guarded the boys there was a disturbance in the place caused by an alteration between Castagno and one of the men and all of the men in the place were arrested and locked up.
Friends of the arrested including mothers, fathers, beathers, wives and sweethearts who gathered to pay the fines made the place look like an old time Sunday morning.
Many of those fined expressed their opinion of the injustice of fining them for merely being present in a licensed public place amusement when they were disarrubished which they were not obstacle and the owner of the place goes free.

Board of Supervisors Orders New Registration Day September 25
ELECTION NOVEMBER 6th
Governor, Legislature,
Judges and City Officials
To Be Elected
Colored Republicans will be
given a chance to change their
affiliation to Democrat on two
registration days next fall, according
to an announcement of the
supervisors of election. Registration
days have been set Tuesday,
September 25th and Tuesday,
October 9th, with a revision day
Tuesday, October 16th.
The swing from freezing, the Republican, to Jauckan, the Democrat in the last mayoralty election, means that a number of colored people will hold their place in the Democrat party and will want to change their affiliation on the books, it is said.
Effort have been directed toward this end. According to the supervisors of election, however, this new registration will not take place until the primary election which has been set for the week between September 8th and 15th. This means that colored voters of Democratic inclination will not be able to take part in primaries. They will be, however, to take part in the general election when set for Tuesday November 8th.
Democratic workers who are expected to gain recruits all over the State, say it is absolutely necessary to register as Democrats if they would secure the most benefits out of their affiliation with that party.
In the Fall political campaign the following will be voted for governor, State treasurer, controller, attorney general, judge of the Supreme Court, surveyor State's attorney, secretary of Baltimore City Court, clerk of Baltimore City Court, register of wills, three judges of the Orphans Court, six State judges of the 36 members of the House of Delegates and one constitutional amendment for raising the salary of the Mayor.
A meeting of the Parent-Teachers Club of the Booker T. Washington School, Hill street, near Sharp, will be held at the school on Thursday evening of this week. James E. Baker is the president.

Elopement Of Athlete And High School Girl Stirs Florida's Best Society
10
FLORIDA IS SHOCKED BY AN ELOPEMENT
Seventeen-Year-old High School Belle and Colored Athletq Disappears in Cloud of Mystery
LETTERS LEFT BEHIND
Correspondence Shows Two Met Frequently and Decided to Elope
White Plains, Fla., May 31—(Enterprise News Service) Ida Williams, white, 17, and known as the belle of the high school at the neighboring village of Carmel, suddenly vanished from her home Monday, the 14th inst., and to date her whereabouts is a mystery. Early investigators disclosed that she cloped with Chester Davis. From a packet of letters found seized in her room, it is revealed that Ida was passionately in love with Davis, 2, the very complexion colored brown who has distinguished himself as being markedly intelligent and the best all-around athlete in the country.
The disclosures have started and shocked the white people hereabouts, as nothing else can. The letters show that I am, who is the daughter of a rich family and socially prominent, has for a year and a half been secretly corresponding with Davis and clandestinely meeting the young man for a year passed. It has beaked out from disclosures—frantically endeavored to be surprised—the white girl had bodily gone to the colored boy and declared her adoration. Later on she, just as he made affectionate advances followed by her declarations of love for the dark-complexioned hero. It was also revealed that the boy had for some time protest against the advances made by her. He deprecated the "mixing up" and warned her of the "fearful" consequence to himself if he resisted, and she persisted. He begged her to desist without resort.
As time went on, the novelty of the trysts and Tda's idol surely overcame young Davis's scruples then have had full swag. The accidental finding of part of a torn letter in the girl's room first aroused suspicion. Further fraternity search revealed what Jafa had done. The girl's parents and relatives, with many friends added, reinforced by State troopers, are scouring the country to apprehend the pair, but indications that they escaped to the North and from faint clues it is surmised the elopes are safe in Canada.
The affair has torn white society top to bottom, and great bitterness is being shown against innocent people persons because of the white and black clapement. The Davis boy's parents have disappeared.

CHAPTER XVIII.
The court-room in Norton, the sensational Bruce murder of June day, the air was fragrant children were playing joyously the trees near by. Confident that he would be had made every effort to keep to But in vain. She had heard, a Nortonville to be near her son, the town had rallied to John's rington, a noted colored lawyer employed by them to defend him. The first witness called was solemn voice he told, partly or under cross-examination, of his return with Mrs. Bruce, of his seeing John Walton running frified examination papers. The fessor's evidence was that John amination papers, that he had Bruce and had killed her.
The court-room in Nortonville was packed to hear the sensational Bruce murder case. It was a beautiful June day, the air was fragrant with blossoms, and the children were playing joyously on the green lawn under the trees near by. Confident that he would be acquitted John's friends had made every effort to keep the news from his mother. But in vain. She had heard, and insisted on coming to Nortonville to be near her son. The colored people of the town had rallied to John's support and Henry Carrington, a noted colored lawyer from Boston, had been employed by them to defend him.
The first witness called was Prof. Bruce. In a calm, solemn voice he told, partly of his own accord, partly under cross-examination, of his visit to the theatre, his return with Mrs. Bruce, of his hearing the fatal shot, of seeing John Walton running from the scene, and of the rified examination papers. The implication of the professor's evidence was that John had come to rob the examination papers, that he had been surprised by Mrs. Bruce and had killed her.
"Now, Prof. Bruce," cross-examined Attorney Carrington sharply, "do you know any reason why the defendant should wish to rob the papers?"
"He was one of the contestants," replied Prof. Bruce confidently.
"Very well. How many contestants were there beside Mr. Walton."
"Yes."
"And during that eight months did you miss anything that you nothing," could attribute to him?
Thank you. That's all.
Herbert McLean was next called to the stand. He corroborated the testimony of Prof. Bruce.
"Would you say ther that those other fourteen competitors also wished to rob the papers? There's Mr. Breckenridge, for instance, would you for a moment insinuate that he would wish to rob the papers simply because he was one of the contestants?"
"Decidedly not. But Mr. Walton was the only contestant who knew the papers were at my home."
"That is so bar, as you know?"
"So far as I know, corrected Prof. Bruce."
"Now, Prof. Bruce, speak truly and tell the jury wasn't Mr. Walton the prospective winner of the trophy. That is, didn't he hold the highest average?"
"Yes."
"What was Mr. Walton's average, Prof. Bruce?"
"88.3."
"What was the next highest?"
"96.4."
"Don't you think it is highly improbable then that he should wish to rob the papers under those circumstances."
"It seems so, but the fact remains that he was the only one who knew the papers were there, and you will admit he was a much interested party."
"You thought that, in spite of his head he couldn't refuse the temptation to steal, when knew the papers were there unprotected, that so, Prot Bruce?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
Prot Bruce hesitated an instant and replied: "Because of his race."
"I move that that be stricken from the records, your honor," said Attorney Carrington. He continued eloquently: "There is no evidence whatever, to prove that members of the Negro race are more given to stealing than other people. We are informed by the most reliable travellers that those in white and black with that lotus and bays are unknown. On the other hand, how long do you think, any civilized country would last without its locks, keys and safety vaults Aren't all these proof positive, to say the least, that other races are given to stealing? Would civilized man need to have the command, "Thou shall not steal" preached to him century after century, year in and year out, from time immemorial, if he was not given to stealing.
"Strike it out," commanded the judge. He added, "But, remember counselor, you invited the question."
"That's just what I did," whispered Atorney Carrington to John. "He is prejudiced and I wanted to show him up."
"How long had Mr. Walton been working for you?" Atorney Carrington continued in his cross-examination.
"Eight months."
"And he has the key to your home and could enter whether you or Mrs Bruce were at home or not."

"And during that eight months did you miss anything that you nothing," could attribute to him?
"Thank you. That's all."
Herbert McLean was next called to the stand. He corroborated the testimony of Prof. Fruet as to the finding of the body. He told also how he had been attracted to the spot by hearing the shot and the scream as he was passing the Bruce home, and how he had met Prof. Bruce as the latter was running up the steps.
McLean proved to be a very nervous witness. He trembled as it he had the St. Vitus dance and hand to be helped off the stand.
"This is the first time I ever testified in court," he had explained.
Lieut. Childs was the next witness. He told of his examination of the scene of the murder, and of the rifled examination papers. An examination of the papers were also made, he said, "and the fingerprints are those of the prisoner."
The announcement created a great stir in court.
"I also made an examination of the body," the lieutenant continued. He drew out his notebook, took from it a small envelope of transparent paper and said: "and clutched in her fingers I found which under microscopical test are found to be exactly like those now on the prisoner's head."
A yet greater commotion in court. "He is guilty." It's he! whispered the spectators one to another as the attendants quited them. Luisa felt her head swim but she summoned, all her courage to announce, John's mother:
"He will explain all when he gets on the stand," she said confidently, in spite of her fears
The detective who had arrested John was next called to the stand.
"Where did you find Mr. Walton?" asked Attorney Carrington.
"On the steps of the Bruce's home."
"Was he coming or going?"
"He was returning to the house."
"Will you tell the jury how you knew it was he?"
"I had orders to permit no one to enter, and he told me who he was."
"Thank you. That's all."
"Thank you. Diane's expert next told how the finger's exam on the examination had been tested by him and found to be exactly like those of the prisoner. The hairs found in Mrs Bruce's fingers had been subjected to every known test, he said, and were also found to correspond with the prisoner's in every detail. His testimony closed the case for the prosecution. And a strained silence the case for the defense began. With a firm and steady step John walked to the stand, and in an unwavering voice that carried conviction and caused many to reverse their opinion, his gull he told his step, "After bearing the Bruce's," he explained. I wren over to my room two doors away and plunged into my studies. After about three and a half hours work I felt tired and went out to get air. I walked about a mile and then started back home.

in front of where I lived I suddenly heard what sounded like a shot followed immediately by a scream, that came from Prof Bruce's home. I was dazed for a moment, but quickly collecting my thoughts I race thither. No sooner had I started, than I saw a man of medium height dash down the steps, cross the street and displace around the street and thought to pursue him but I quickly decided that the best thing to do was to go inside and see what had happened. When I entered I saw Mrs. Bruce lying on the floor with the revolver besides her. I soon discovered that she was dead. I then remember the man I had seen run down the steps. I immediately concluded that he was the murderer and did with the revolver and started to run out when I run into Prof. Bruce and Mr. McLean."
He told also of the mysterious conversation he had overheard in Mrs Bruce's room when he first went to work for the family, and of the peculiar manner in which the man had been talking with had disappeared
"I feel sure," he asseverated, "that that man had something to do with her death, I swear, before that I am innocent, I wouldn't have hurt a hair "You hear it, Mother," assured Lucille, "he's innocent."
"I know it," murmured Mrs. Walton, "my boy would never, never do that. He was always the soul of honesty."
The district attorney questioned John sharply: "You said Mrs of her head for all the world."

"Would you say by his voice that he was white or colored" asked he district attorney
"That is difficult to tell: In the part of the South that I came from it is often impossible to tell whether it is white or colored who is speaking. I have often guessed wrongly as to the color when I did not see the person speaking. I have noticed the same thing with regard to white and colored in the North. Environments tend to make all people regardless of race similar in accent, as well as in other things."
"Well you formed some impression about the race of this mysterious man didn't you"
"Yes, I fancied that he was a white man, and a white man of some culture. The impression may be due to the fact that I couldn't find being a colored man."
"The hair sound in Mrs. Bruce's fingers were from a colored man, is there another colored man competing for the prize?" asked the district attorney.
"Did you communicate with any one between the time you left the Bruces and the time you shot Mrs. Ryeau?"
JAMES H. DENNIS
The Old Reliable Cut Rate
"I didn't shoot her," replied John quietly as his attorney objected to the question. "Can you bring anyone to prove that you had been in your room all the time, you claim you were?" "No." "Didn't you meet anyone on your walk that you knew?" "I passed several persons. They may have recognized me, but I didn't recognize any of them."
"You know a good many people in that section of the town don't you?"
"Yes."
"That's all—Wait. One question more. isn't it a fact that you were counting on the $1500 cash from the prize to get married?"
"I object." shouted Atty. Carrington. The judge sustained the objection.
The case closed. Attorney Carrington was about to begin his summing up when something dramatic occurred. Laurie had been listening feverishly for what had been one of the attempts to bribe him. Intuitively she felt that had not John refused the bribe Mrs. France would not have been shot. But she had listened in for John to say this in vain. Now unable to keep silent any longer she rose in her seat and begged to be allowed to testify.
"There is one fact that hasn't been brought out," she哭ed excitedly. "He refused a bride of $5,000 to stay away from the examination. And there sits the man who offers it to him. He is Philip, the bride's son," she shouted Philip springing to his feet. He was extraordinarily pale.

EVERY MAN WHO HAS LOST THE VITAL FORCE OF YOUTH MAY BE RESTORED
A new discovery is said to have been made by a scientific study of Serbian mountain people who scientists say, five longer than any other people. It is said this discovery should add many years to lives of people in all parts of the world and quickly restore mainly strength, youthful vigor, grace and beauty lost by neglect or abuse. Scientists agree that the secret of health and vigor lies in the internal glands, and if these glands are stimulated and kept in normal activity, man might live forever and alliments such as tired, worn-out feeling, weakness, nervous debility, slow complexion, loss of weight, poor memory, nervous senility, poor memory, restlessness at night, prisons, headache, melancholy, despondency, etc., should disappear.

Knocks on the Men
Why do they call it "giving" a woman money, when she works $5. 16-hour days a year? They are the gentlemen who take the time year-before-fests' hat and frock. And that is the nearest to a compliment you ever get. They also are the same who expect "three squares per day," and the earliest breakfast of all the morning after the baby casted" most of the night before" who is reported to have said she would give Noble Johnson $500 for a bug and a kiss. In absence of certain knowledge, one is led to believe she is a married woman and that her husband has run to type, and has, in a lower level, been arentomorphosed into something like a cross between a cement block and an iceberg.

How Would You Like to Sell Real Estate?
Read this woman's story:
"Two years ago one of our neighbors moved away unexpectedly, so did not have time to sell their house. They told me I could have all above $5,500 that I could sell it for. I wanted for Sale sign on the house, but made no sale. Next I ran a small For Sale want ad, but still no results. Then I had a picture taken of the house and had 2,000 handbills printed fully describing it. I distributed them all over town and posted many on fences and telegraph poles. Within one week I had dozens of people come to look at the house and sold it for $6,500. My total expense was $4.90; my total profit was $1,000. My advice is to go into the real estate business. Go out and find houses for sale, then make the owner N proposition to sell them my profits this year will run over $5,000 clear."

What Should She Do?
What Should She Do?
(A puzzled wife's problem)
What would you do if you had reached the age of 36, had been married for 12 years, had three children, and were doing your best to make and maintain a rented home on $5 a week, and then, like a thunderbolt out of a clear sky, you were told by your husband that he didn't love you any more?
I have always done all my own work, including the washing, framing, sewing and baking, and cared for my own little ones besides making children and garden-canning fruit, vegetables and meat. We have always been low on cash and heavily indebted, and many are the necessities we have done without. The way has been rough and rocky, but I have always thought one could make sacrifices for love's sake, but now what shall I look ahead to?
We live in a timeless down, lonely place 10 miles from town and 21½ miles from school. We have cattle and hogs, but no decent place to keep them, and every year lose a large per cent of the young stuff because of improper times. We have times that we move on a small, better improved place and try to get closer to school. I have often thought if we were closer to a town I might be able to sew or wash or do something to bring in a little money. We wear everybody's old second-hand clothes and it hurts my pride.
Our furniture, bought 12 years ago, is wearing out. The rug and curtains are nothing but rugs. We have four rooms and in two of them the plaster is off in places, and what is left of the wall paper, put on six years ago, is not very coarse. I should like to have $100 in cash, but I never have enough eggs and cream money to reach over the price of groceries, shoes and other necessities for live persons.
My husband's aunt lives with us—she has no other home. She is always going to "pay up" at the end of the year, but gets absent-minded and forgets all about it. Rather than offend Ann I will just drop the matter. "I do her washing and mowing and mending, or she has "nerves and bad vision." Sometimes I almost imagine I have "nerves" myself.
Often I have tried to have a sensible talk with my husband and make him see things as I do, but he simply will not. At times I am tempted to pack my duds and children and try to make a living "somewhere to civilization." Will some one who has had more experience please suggest what is my next step. I have always tried to live a clean, the way I am. A PIZZLED WIRE
poured a drop or two of boiling water, which he in a big paper sack, and he to let the child breathe to protect stains. Alto it smelled of frogs and balsam, that was a wonderful group remedy.
One Sunday I suffered a sudden and awful toothache, and it was 8 miles to the railroad and 10 more to town. Sing and his cook and the bookkeeper became interested and held a consultation.
To my utter disgust and fear the cook peeled a dozen large cloves of garlic. With a sharp cleaver he mined them into a paste and placed it on my thumb, in the hollow at the lower joint. To my everlasting surprise, experienced electric thrill at the base of the thumb, and the pain in the tooth actually stopped.
When he went to town, Sing brought me gifts of Chinese candied fruit, ten, dried shrimps, incense, lily bulbs, and never failed to bring my baby 5 cents worth of peppermint. He would call my husband over to enjoy a thimbleful of that strong rice liquor which he bought to treat his boys. I sent over fresh bread and hot rolls to old Sing.
The old boss saw to it that his team was kept fat, his hog were fat, the eat was fat, the cow was fat. I noticed how gentle and kind the Chinese were to the animals. After that it was rather a shock to see 30 Chinamen gathered around a little pen eagerly watching a cock-light, and to learn they caught rats and fought them, too. They gambled, and then seemed nothing wrong with them, as a custom with them, and as much a part of their life as the red and gold prayers they burn.
Sing thought our kissing was rather immoral. It seemed queer to him that my sisters kissed my husband when they came on a visit. Sing must have been the greeting between Sing and a white man who is a very high Mason. There was something, a sign that passed too quickly for me to follow, and an air of deference not to explain how possibly would not observed had I not seen the sign — AMY HUNT.
Maxine Was Hungry
Dear Editor--My little sister, Ms. thee is very fond of eating. One Sunday she came home from Sunday's, and looked wistfully toward the kitchen stove. When she saw the word "Mother," is it true they never eat in heaven? Mother, worn from her exertions in preparing the meal, assured her that eating would be entirely out of order there. "Well, then," said Maxine, "when I'm going to take a lunch."—Mia.
Less Beading But Better
There is less beading this season than for several, but what is used is handled much more distinctively. Sometimes motifs from shimmers are worked in beads in copying the original design. K. M.
"Moonshiners"
Yum, yum they're good! Use 4 egg yolks, 4 tablespoons sugar, 4 tablespoons of cream, 4 tablespoons of melted butter, ½ teaspoon vanilla. Add enough diamond-shaped pieces with a silver knife and make a slit in the center and put one corner thru the slit. Drop them in hot hard and fry to a delicate brown. Do not have the hard too hot as this makes them thick and hard. Pour them into a bowl which never fall to delight my tiny small boys. When they are done put them in a paper bag containing powdered sugar and shake the bag well to give them a sugar coating. Making day, the four egg whites may be used to make white cake.

The Black Sox paddled their canoe up stream to a double win over the Hildale aggregation 8-2 4:23 Sunday before 3000 fans. The teams broke even in the four-game series.
and 4-3 Sunday before sons Lance
H Mitchell and Mahoney
were the two hall chunkers of the
Sox's staff that hurled the home
boys victory, and had the two
heavens availed themselves of the
flood tide that came their way they
would have smeared two coats of
the old kalsomine over the clan of
Bolden. In each game with two
men out and two strikes on the
last man, they failed to slip the
third strike over, the batter hitting
safely with two men on.
Mitchell's opportunity came in
the first game. For six innings
he held the visitors scoreless,
the seventh hit one.
The first man up Johnson was out by
the third strike four. Allen
followed beating an infield hit
Cere moving to second.
Submarine Loe started on the hill for the visitors and baffled the locals in the first frame. In the second they got to his sand dipping delivery, and in the third bumped him from the peak. Gardiner took up the burden at this point, but he was hammered out. Winters was then sent in, homes by C. and W. Smith being among hits made off him.
Richardson was started on the hill for the Sox but walked out of the box in the sixth after walking one man and the next man singled to center. Logan was then sent in and he too walked out when Upson Clark didn't see his losses to the first. Carter that faced him like he thought. A Mitchell then took up the burden.
With the score tied Hilldale marked up one in the eighth, putting the score at 9-8. With the bases loaded
After Gardiner had been tossed out, Miller to Wilson, Briggs came up with two strikes called, smacked the pellet into left field for two stations scoring Carr and Allen. "Goose eggs" were all the visitors could collect in the eighth and ninth, and seventh not a Hilldale runner had reached third base, or made a clean hit.
On the other hand, the Sox found "Red" Ryan pie and clubbed him from the hill in the fifth when a total of twelve bingles had netted seven runs. "Ping" Gardiner former Back Rock Soxman in this point and held the thecels to three saffles and one run the balance of the way.
Seven hits were all that the visitors could get off Mitchell's slants, two double-plays by Hilldale, Lloyd to Warfield to Allen, and Allen to Mackie to Allen. Furred the first game Briggs got in the spot light by a running one-hand catch of Rojo fly in the 8th catch.
Second Game Brilliant
The second game was a real classic of the short and kept the 9000 spectators in a high state of excitement. It was a pitcher's duel between Cockrell and Mahoney the former wabbling in the initial frame which yielded the other four runs and Mahoney the third Darbytes scored until the ninth when he too wabbled with two men down which netted three runs.
The Sox made theirs as follows: Raggs got a life when Cockrell failed to locate the plate. Rojo hunted and was safe when Cockrell failed to handle the ball clean-out. After Wilson had been thrown out, Johnson to Allen Hall laid his club gently against the pill for two sacks which sent Raggs and Rojo across the plate.
C. Smith followed with a single to left and an instant later pilfered the keystone stance. W. Smith was a third strike, which Music failed to hold and Hall who perched on third dashed for the plate before Mackie could recover the ball.
C. Smith had moved to the third base and in a double. Steve with "Lifty" Smith electrified the fans by stealing home when with the whole Hildale infield running him down the ball final slipped from the mit of one of the players in its relay. Poles and Miller were easy outs.
The Hildale team got their runs **Hildale's Big Ninth**
The Hildale team got their runs in the ninth when Mahoney became unsteady and after walking Warfield, hit Lloyd with a pitched ball. Thomas struck out. Mackie was thrown out by C. Smith. Mahoney put two strikes in and grove the pitch which the 200-meter counted for "a single to right scoring Warfield and Lloyd. Winter's walked. G. Johnson batting for Allen, who had been hurt by a foul ball, of his own batting to right and Carr scored.
Cockrell had the opportunity to tig the score but chose rather to give Wilson a little fly ball practice and hoisted in the air over the first base retiring the side and giving the Black Sox a twin win over the leaders of the Eastern League and first place in the league.

BLACK SOX LOSE FINAL TO HILLDALE
Locals Miss Several Chances
In Monday's Tilt To Take
League Leadership
The Black Sox lost to Hildale in
Monday's game 9-8, before 500 rosters. Fate left everything but walk
up and hand the game to the locals,
but they just wouldn't have it. Thus
the teams broke even in the four-
game series.
Submarine Lee started on the bill
for the visitors and baffled the locals
in the first frame. In the second they
got to his sand dipped delivery, and
in the third bumped him from the
peak. Gardiner took up the burden
at this point. He hasted until the
seventh, when he too was hammered
out. Winters was then sent in,
homes by C. and W. Smith being
among hits made off him.
Richardson was started on the bill
for the Sox but walked out of the
box in the sixth after walking one
man and the next man singled to
in and
center. Tidly wagged in. He too walked out when Umpis Clark inled didn't see his posses to the first but that friend him like he thought the team. Mitchell then took up by the burden. With the score tied Hilldale marked up one in the eighth putting the scores at 9-8. With the hoses loaded
score at the mish and two out fate again
backed to the locals. Mitchell was
backed, but as Winters flung from
the port side and Mitchell batter from
the same angle, Mahoney, who has
succeeded Miller as captain, thought
a right hander would stand a better
chance of hitting.
The rate of the game and the leadership of the Eastern League was now hanging in the balance, and it was up at Mahoney to save "the day." It was equally up to Winters to turn that day into night. Mahoney swing at three that "wasn't" and all was blackness.

ARE YOU NORMAL?
Here Are Standards For Boys in Running And Jumping
Unless you can run and jump and leap you are not a normal boy, say the authorities in charge of the Summer Military Training Camps.
They require that the candidate run 100 yards in a certain time, clear the bar at a specified height in the running high jump, and go over the bar in the bar vault at a certain height in order to qualify as up to the standard for his career.
A boy of the junior high school standard, for instance, is supposed to run 100 yards in 12 2-5, to make 13 feet in the running broad jump, and to clear 4 feet 2 inches in the running high jump and 5 feet in the bar vault.
A boy of the senior high school standard (from 17-18 years of age) should be run the standard in 0:13, broad jump 4 feet, high jump 4 feet 2 inches and vault 5 feet 2 inches.
The college standard (from
19-20 years) requires that the
candidate run the century in
0:12 3-5, broad jump 15
clear 4 feet inches in the high
tumor and 5 feet 10 inches in
the bar vault.
Running spikes and special athletic uniforms for use in these tests will be barred. In the training camps during the coming Summer all men are to compete in the usual field uniforms of service shoes, leggings, breaches and flannel shirts.

On two successive Sundays, Miller is captain of the Black Sox sent Hooks Mitchell in as a pinch batter with the result that Hooks slammed a safe crack that won both games.
Last Monday, Mahoney who has been promoted to captain, decided to pitch in the ninth inning with the bases loaded and the Sox needing only two runs to win. Although it was Mitchell's regular turn to bat.
Mahoney's decision was right according to the "dope" which is to the effect that a right-handed batter stand a better chance of hitting a left-handed pitcher than a left-handed batter, and vice versa.
But Mahoney fumed. And all the philosophies the country could convince either Mitchell or those fans who remembered the two former occasions, that he wouldn't have hit safely if he had been allowed to bat.
* * *
Lloyd made himself very unpopular with the fans by registering a constant series of protests against what he regarded as unfair advantages that were to be taken of his team. Of course it was his right to look out for such thing, but the fans seem to decide that like the lady in "Hamlet" he protested too much and gave him the most vociferous razzing any player has ever received here.
---
this razzing reached a climax in
the fourth tinnin of the nightcap
when he tried to steal second base,
C. Smith running him down and
putting the ball in his back so hard that
it sent him sprawling head-formost
in the dust. Smith evidently did
this fearing that he would otherwise
say that he had been touched.
That nightcap Sunday was a humdinger. Cockrell and Mahoney staged
a pitchers' duel, Mahoney getting
the best of it.
Poles "comeback" with a vengeance
playing a fast game at short and
likewise polishing on his stick work.
He banged out the only three-base
of the day, besides getting two
shrieks.
There was a large number of fans from Philadelphia who came down to see the Darbytos, repeat the dose they had given the Sox in the City of Brotherly Love Saturday. They were rather noisy at the outset of the game, but their jubilation gradually died down to a mere whisper and finally trailed off into an impressive silence as the day'were on
---
Carpentier is reported as saying that he wants just one more crack at Ski. They all want one more crack at the man who put them out and under.
On second thought, we don't here much talk of Messrs. Tut and Buddy Jackson and Keed Norfolk wanting another crack at Misha. If you ever saw Harry's arms in action, you needed not be told the reason.

It now begins to look like plans are going to develop for a Wills-Dompsey championship match.

If these two splendid types of American manhood meet, let white and black Americans alike regard the match in the nature of what it will really be—a fight between two American boxers for the supremacy of the heavyweight class—and not a battle to settle the race question.
However, if you wish to place a little wager on the bout, go to it. If you want to play safe on the outcome, we advise that you place your money three ways: in your pocket, in the bank and in real estate.
Bill Tate, the rangy heavyweight, who has been challenging Harry Vills the last year, will put Tom pawler, the English fighter, to the acid test at the Commonwealth Sporting Club Friday night.

THE KNOCK OUT KING
Sam Langford started his ring career at the age of sixteen with a knockout. Every year since he has knocked out the first opponent to meet him. Today at the age of 37, he is champion of Spain and Mexico in the heavyweight class.
Few people know it, but Sam was born in Weymouth, Nova Scotia, and is therefore by birth a black Canadian.
He has beaten such men as Joe Gans, Jack Blackburn, Young Peter Jackson.
He has knooked out Harry Wills, when the latter was a kid, Bill Tate, Kid Norfolk, and Jamaica Kid, George Godfrey, Dempsey's sparring partner, lasted two rounds with Langford, who has his own opponents, that he must his opponents which way they want to fall before he knocks them out.
Wills Plead For Fight With Dempsey
Wills Plead For Fight With Dempsey
New York, May 28—Harry Wills, the colored cyclone, has renewed his complaint against the yellow streak running through Jack Dempsey, and which prevents a light between the so-called world champion and the most logical contender for the title. Friends of Wills have gone to Albany to see if they cannot get the Boxing Commission to force Dempsey to stand up for a few rounds before Wills. In the meantime, Dempsey's management the old promise that he will let Dempsey meet Wills soon. This time he names Labor Day for the fray, but the fans are all skeptical about his promises, remembering most experiences.
WILL-DEMPSEY MILL
STILL IN THE AIR
New York, May 31.—William J. McCormick, chairman of the License Committee, stated yesterday that nothing has been done as yet in regard to the Dempsey-Wills matter. The new boxing boss admitted that the question when taken up would be treated as an entirely new question. It is promised, however, that every case of importance to the welfare of boxing will be given common sense judgment.

NEURITIS!
The neuritis victim hardly knows the danger of this disease. Usually the pain is so persistent day and night that any measure of relief is welcome, but thought of future danger is possible. Neuritis, like neuralgia and rheumatism, is caused by a displacement of a spinal vertebra (joint), which presses on a nerve, causing inflammation, resulting in intense pain and muscular weakness.
Notice—Due to increased practice, the nerve will be 10-12 a. m., 6:30-9 p. m., also 2-5 p. m., Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

Japanese Roll Down Game Pony Track and Photo Gallery Among New Features Installed
Jazz Artists and Band To
Be the Attraction Next
Week
Baltimoreans who visit Wonderland Park this season will find a number of improvements both in the line of amusements as well as conveniences to great them.
The park this year is under new management who stated that no expense will be spared to make the park one of the finest outdoor amusement places of this nature for colored people in the country.
First among the most noted improvements is the fencing in of the entire plot. This was done, order to give more privacy to the park thus eliminating to great extent the former complaint against the trees through the linthes. Also to keep out undesirable characters who drift in occasional from various directions.
Another noted improvement for the convenience of patrons is the placing of an added number of benches about the park, so that visitors will not be forced to sit on the ground in such large numbers as herculeotis. Another feature in this line which will add to the attractiveness of the park is the stringing of additional rows of electric lights around the park.
New Amusements
The new amusements comprise a Japanese bell Down game, a pony track where the kiddies may addibish delight of all kinds of hearties—ride a pony and a real photograph gallery where genuine photos of the larger type may be taken.
The dancing pavilion will also prove more intriguing to those who wish to trip the light fantastic in that it has also been more completely "fenced in" that is to say, it will not be possible to stand on the outside and by a little stretching of the neck see what's going on inside.
All the other amusement features are intact, the racer dip, whip, airplanes, ferris wheel etc. The games of chance this season will be under this direction of an expanse this line of entertainment from New York. With the exception of the racer dip all the amusement are operated by colored employees. Mr. W. D. Seamon, white, is the manager, and Mr. Boyd White, treasurer. Certie Well's Jazz Band will be the big feature at the park on June 5-6, and June S. Elmer Snowden's Jazz Kings will hold forth.

We Don't Want Leniency.
Several cases tried before just City Court show a tendency to take in certain types of crimes committed.

There have been other instances seemed to fit the opinion that certain sibilities are not as high in the Negro When a colored man commits a wolf girl the same punishment should be be the case of the girl of any race type it is because she has been made so continually as long as men destroy them.

The centers are setting up machine arms arising out of migration. Baltimore clearly if she neglects the welfare giving them to shift as best they can, a highly-taxed community of bad housing.
Several cases tried before juries in the Baltimore City Court show a tendency to take special consideration in certain types of crimes committed by our people.
Recently a man charged with committing criminal assault against two very young girls was set free despite his virtual confession, because the jury apparently felt that these little colored girls were of a type that did not deserve protection.
There have been other instances where the sentence seemed to fit the opinion that certain standards and sensibilities are not as high in the Negro as in other groups. When a colored man commits a wrong against a Negro girl the same punishment should be meted out as would be the case of the girl of any race. If the girl is a bad type it is because she has been made so, and they will be made so continually as long as men can with impunity destroy them.

The world today is looking for men who are not for sale; men who are honest, sound from the center to circumference, true to the heart's core; men with consciences as steady as the needle to the poll; men who will stand for the right if the heavens totter and the earth reels; men who can tell the truth and look the world right in the eye; men who neither brag nor run, men who neither flag nor finch; men who can have courage without shouting it; men in whom the courage of everlasting life runs still, deep and strong; men who know their message and tell it; men who know their place and fill it; men who know their business and attend to it; men who will not lie, shirk or dodge; men who are not too lazy to work; nor too proud to be poor; men who are willing to eat what they have earned and wear what they have paid for; men who are not ashamed to say "No" with emphasis and who are not ashamed to say, "I can't afford it."
Some Problems of Migration.
The migration of Negroes from the South may prove a good thing not only in giving them wider and better opportunities, but also in stimulating a wider interest of the more fortunately situated members in this group.
There has been a noticeable effect on the racial relations in all centers where any appreciable number of migrants have gone. In Chicago or Detroit old residents tell you that things are not what they used to be in the matter of race relations. In Baltimore some of the large department stores are beginning to show a disposition toward unfair discrimination.
All of this serves to emphasize how thoroughly linked are the interests and well-being of every colored man and woman in this country. We cannot rise as units. We must do so as a RACE.
Most of the centers are setting up machinery to handle the problems arising out of migration. Baltimore willy and pay dearly if she neglects the welfare of these migrants allowing them to shift as best they can in an already highly-taxed community of bad housing and living conditions.

"The death struggle of the Garvey movement" is what some people will discern in the pending court trial that "His Majesty, the Provisional President of Africa," is facing in New York.
There is something tragic about the whole affair.
Opinion will no doubt divide on the actual guilt of Garvey as to intent to defraud. Evidence already shows, however, that more than a million dollars was thrown to the winds in first one high sounding scheme after another, and that many a dollar was carelessly, if not fraudulently used.
The one outstanding fact in the whole debacle, however, is that it was possible to organize such a colossal movement. Never in the history of the world has a Negro arisen with the ambitions of Garvey. Touissaint L'Overture sought to free a group of his countrymen. Denmark Vesey struck for the freedom of American slaves; but Garvey's vision embraced the Negro world. Garvey failed because he lacked business experience.
But the fact that so many colored people could be organized in such a movement is significant. Some day some leader will arise who has both organizing and business ability and then what things may happen GOD ONLY KNOWS.

"Roy," he said, "greeting the serbite. These men made it possible for the African-Merican to be published and for you to write your messenger.
They fit that you must be free many times riskin' their lives for freedom. I am along in them times and didn't have the opportunity that you youngsters have, but, thank God, I'm fightin' tight. Git some ginger in you and light for the race.
"Well, what's new?" the reporter asked.
"Nuthin much that I knows of," responded O. T. "Eybody is thinkin' of these old soldiers now. There's is only a few to tell the tale. I bet littler and goodin' to me. I have some jicks for Jack's Ritchie. He's gwine to be denominated and I'm gwine hop't blim."
"What do you think about the Wether bein' on one side and W. P. Jackson, Lowbies and others being on another in the Republican ranks?" the reporter asked.
"Well, I ain't no 'Publian no mo, but besides you want know I got this to say: 'Wether's he guanseeing the boys for some and giving the boys que enough to hang themselves. He was off when Senator Pratt needed him the mosets, and when Breinin' was a see-sawin' in his mind 'bout runnin' for Mayor Wether and Tait took a sail to the West Indies. Now, that it is all oak hey hey come of the cysteine sulfur and are sayin': 'Look up to us as yore leaders.'"
"Mistah W. P. Jackson, down in his offices at Salisbury, hears 'bout this and hurries to Rattini.' You know there will be a scrap on control the party delegation to the 'Publian Nashville Convention and Mistah Jack so wants Mr. Wether not to pry him 'bout as mshunt committee-earn."
"I see," said the reporter.
"I see, too," said O. T. that the African-Merican is after the School Board folkses for not fill men's男's shows as principals. "Don't you know that means saving more than half year's salary. So supervisor Russell ought to get busy and stir up things."
"Did you see Mayor Jackson inaugurated?" asked the reporter.
"Dead, did I?" answered O. T. "haved him bury me in the grave for all his folkses, and after the speechtifin', me and my game leg went into the City Hall, and shock hands with the new Mayor at his desk."
"Hay you ought to be there to see it."
"I was there," broke in the re-

"If you was" said G. T. "You did not have anything in the paper about it. If you was you said nothin' about Mrs. Jackson giving me a big bunch of pink roses. If you was you said nothin' about the Mayor telling me there was a girl you was—you reporters is just like a half grown young-un what allus he dears goossip fust and the trouf his."
Just then the band struck up a marital air, and the old fellow shouted his tiny Above the big finger the muskler handed in '64 and fell in with the line of marching veterans.
WASN'T PARTICULAR
The door closed on the last of a long line of impatient customers. With a tired smile, the girl bobbing the counter turned to the confusion of pastries that must be rearranged for the next onushth.
A fussy little man burst in at the door and busted up to the counter.
"What kinds of pie have you?" he queried.
"Peach, apple, custard, lemon."
She paused expectantly. No sound.
"Chocolate, bamma, cream."
"That all?" he asked testily.
"Sweet potato, mince, black."
"Oh, give me any kind," he cut in.

THEY KNEW
Down in Arkansas a man was tried for assault and battery with intent to kill. The State produced an evidence the weapons used—a rail, gun, saw and rifle. The defendant's counsel exhibited as the other man's weapons a sceptic blade, pitchfork, pistol, dog, razor and hoe. He was being out several hours the jury rendered this verdict: "We the jury, would have given a dollar to see the fight."
HIS JOKE TOO FUNNY
A Chicago man decided to play a great joke on his brother John. He called up 71 undertakers, told them his brother was dead and instructed them to call and take charge of the body. The undertakers came in trucks, hearses, motor wagons, autos and ambulances and cluttered up the street for a block or two. Then the joker was arrested as insane and put into a cell. At the present time the joke seems to be on the joker.
SMALL ERROR
A man traveling to New York by automobile was near the State line between Virginia and North Carolina. He wished to know exactly whether he had crossed the line, and seeing a girl on the side of the road, cautioned, "Say, is this Virginia?" "No, sir," she replied, "did he's Lucy."
AN UNEXPECTED MEETING

DID YOU KNOW:
In recent years there has been a large increase in the number of Negroes working in factories. In 1900 the number was 131,216; and in 1910, an increase of 173 per cent. Gertrude Alberton, in the North American Review for August 1902, establishes beyond preadventure a fictitious mother for Alexander Hamilton. The woman was a beautiful octetan, who, like many of her kind, remained true to Hamilton and lived in collosters of a convent, so far as the outside world was concerned—above.
There is a tradition that the pulers of Alyssasia can trace their descent from Mengik, son of Solomon and the Queen of Shaka.
Secretary of war Edwin M. Stanton said of Negro troops at Petersburg: "The hardest fighting was done by the black troops. The forces they stormed were the worst of all After the affair was over, Gen. Smith want to thank them, and tell them he was pound of their courage and dish. He says they cannot be punished. After the affair he will send them in a difficult place as readily as the best white troops."
Old Maid's Prayer
Oh Lord! Send me a husband,
A man from any land,
Just so that he wears trousers,
I'll give him to beat the band.
It seems, dear Lord, that you mixed

In some mysterious way,
For people are telling a sad story
Three women to each man they
say.
And dear Lord, if you can do no better
Please give us girls a fair show,
Please Lord, let us know the reason
We are mighty anxious to know,
And if it is no other way to do it
Why not do as in the days gone by
When angels took the daughters
of men
As they came down from the sky,
For, dear lord, a man I must have
I don't care what his chin,
But please, dear lord, send if you
Put please, dear Lord, send if you will.

The Staring Eye
Pullman car Glendale, attached to Santa Fe train No. 14, arrived in Wichita much as usual a recent morning. It was 8.45 a.m. and quite chilly, until the eye of the porter glancing at a recently emptied car. The porter perspiration oozed from every pore. From beneath a sheet tossed over the end of the berth started an eye—a human eye. The contour of the sheet showed clearly the body was missing. The porter peeled, but the glassy stare of the porter was still. The masseuse eye. A belated passenger broke the eye's hypnotic spell and released the porter. Now the eye is kept at Pullman headquarters in Chicago with such other intimate articles of lost love such. But what a story Edgar Allen Poe or Nathaniel Hawthorne could have made out of it.
CHICKENOLOGY
A professor going to one of the Southern States to observe a solar eclipse, said to a passerby, "Same, if you watch tomorrow, about 11 o'clock, you will see your chickens go to roost." Sam was skeptical, but when the question came and the heavens did not darken, chickens went to roost, his amazement knew no bounds.

My BEN F. RURWELL
For the Consider Service
All night I am tossing and dreaming:
Awaiting the break of the day:
All night the bright moonbeams are
streaming
On me, I belong where I lay.
The tales in my heart are composing
To the earth with your soul unto mine
O dark eyes my soul is desiring.
To take you and make you divine
I will take you away from your island,
I'll take you away to mine own:
Black maiden for you, I'll bring my
My heart you shall take as your throne.
The lamphones they're bending and sighing.
And waiting for you 'neath the shade;
Wild woods are speaking, palm fronds are seeking.
The morn winds have heard what they said.
I am taking the path thro' the meadow.
The pathway that leads to the bay;
I pass 'neath the coiba trees' shadow
Ere dawn thorns the blue mountains gray
Your isle I shall reach in the even.
When skies turn to gold in the West;
And under the bright stars of heaven,
'I'll fall you to sleep on my breast.
Mine isle is the best in the Carib Sea,
So come from your cabin I pray:
Here I am waiting, slip thro' the grating.
And come down to me in the bay,
Sleep while we glide in the moon-
beams to rest;
And dream of our isle over the sea;
Death cannot sever the love that for-
ever
Will bind me, black maiden, to
thee.
How Fast Can You Say It
Dear Editor—Here is a tongue twister rhyme. The results are very funny when you get a company trying to repeat it:
A flea and a fly in a flue;
Said the flea, "Ah, what can we do?
Quoth the flea, "Let us flee."
Said the flea, "Let us fly."
So they flew thru a flaw in the flue.

The First Culture is Agriculture "God Walks in My Garden"
The Spring is here, although lingering winter chilled almost to leines the lap of May. All living things are revivified with vernal urgency and the newness of life.
urgency and the needlessness of
Reader of mine, I beg your intelligence to lay aside for the
none of vexatious social issues and troublesome perplexities of race.
To center the mind continually upon ones own ills leads to ingrowing
pains. Even the convict in prison should permit his mind to stray
conscionably beyond the bounds of the prison walls.
recessively begin the besetting evils that enthrall us, we do well to devote a part of each solid day to the lighter modes of thought and finer phases of life. The diver must needs come to the surface for a fresh breath of air. In the rareest atmosphere we rise above the distressing actualities which everlastingly distress and trouble us. In the language of Du Bais, we live above the veil.
With our soul lifted up and exhibited, even for the moment, we return, as we needs must, to the vate of work and tears with stomker hearts and longer determination.
So now, dear reader of mine, come with me for a little while, and listen to natures entements. Forget the worries and troubles of unhappy racial lot, forget if you can, even the Negro Sandberd, and contemplate with me the unmployed joys of bucolic delights.

By some good hap I came into possession of the homestead of the late John M. Langston. They hid out estates in those days. Howard University was planned as a University community with professional residences fringing the spurious grounds and the central institutional buildings planted in the midst thereof.
At that time it was thought that white and black could be associated in a communal social life. General George W. Balloch. Bishop John M. Brown. Professor John M. Langston and the rest established their homes in harmony with this idea. But the radical change in public and social opinion has frustrated the plan of the founders. The homestead of Professor Langston is the only one left to tell the story.
This estate comprises one-half acre bounded on two sides by the University campus with which it forms a continuous park. The house was planned after the architectural style of the Swiss Cottage. Walks were laid out, trees planted, and suitable spaces arranged for garden, lawn and shrubbery.
A sycamore tree, the gift of Charles Summer and planted by the hands of Frederick Doughnash now towers above the premise, crowned with the growth of a half century.
A magnolia tree, contributed by a Parisian friend is a year-round delight with its leaf of never-withering green. Oaks, cedars, maples, Lilch and gum furnish abundance of heat defying shade.
Clusters of shrubbery suitably distributed attract the eye with their variegated foliage and flower. The squirrel and the rabbit frequently pay their friendly visit, although they have not yet been able to establish friendly relations with my watch dog Rex.
The birds furnish their daily matriar, and I am waked from my sleep by the music of the winged chair, . A pair of red ones, beautiful as the Bird of Paradise, pay their annual visit each Spring; but like Poe's Raven, they always leave me on the morrow. The cackle of a dozen snow white fowl announce the daily arrival of half dozen fresh laid eggs.
In The Garden
Now come with me for a little journey through the vegetable race devoted to this purpose is garden. Every inch of the quartz covered with thirty varieties of vegetables, each productive in table quantities. It is needless to worry your attention with a catalog of varieties, Corn, beets, cabbage, carrots, rhubarb and asparagus tease he appetite with their tempting succulency. Have you ever experienced the joy of cultivating the vegetable garden? It is not work, it is not exercise; it is pure exhilaration.
I have labored on the farm spurred on by the expectation of the coming harvest. The sweat of toil is robbed of its laboriousness in anticipation of the fruitage of the field. I have indulged in sports where every muscle is stretched and every nerve is strained in rivalry with the friendly adversary. The gist of the sport is heightened by the desire of domination inherent in us all.
I have done some intellectual work which taxed all of the energies of the mind, and the resulting happiness was great. But to repeat the primitive process of Adam and Eve in the Garden fills and thrills with a flavor of that Paradisical delight which thralled the First Pair. After all has been said and done the original form of culture is agriculture. It is rooted and grounded in the very cells of the human species.
Note the flower pot on the window sill of the crowded tenement house and learn how cramped human nature seeks an outlet for the horticultural instinct.
Is it dignified for a gentleman to raise cabbage? He may indeed play golf or tennis but may not become a co-worker with God in the perfection of plant creation.
"When Adam delved, and Eve span, pray who was then the gentleman?"
The good gray poet of nature tells us that "A blackberry vine is a fit decoration for the parlor of heaven." A corn-stalk is more beautiful to behold than a candelabrum of beaten brass. But the leisured say that all manual effort that yields a profit must be disdained.
I care no whit for the profitable yield of my garden. This I refer to the lady of the house. My activity is detached and disinterested. I fully feel the cost of the lines of Kipling prophetic of that coming time.
When no one shall work for money,
And no one shall work for fame,
But each for the joy of the working."
The Orchard
after leaving the vegetable garden, the orchard stitches to some. But to use the station, not diminished. There is always some fruit tree is cherished for its beauty of its shade. A shade tree is cherished for its shade of its shade. A fruit tree has both of these advantages whose beauty delights the eye and whose Where can, one find a more detectiveising shade with reddened fruit peeping through leaves? This was indeed the prettiest tree the hanging clusters of ripped grapes are and man. I aim to plant in my orchard eye will permit to thrive. The apple, pepparoon and quince yield a satisfactory hard apple enable me to appreciate the scripting forth ones hand under his own vine and forgotten to mention the lush bush pear in order in order that the treenody of White pear: "When likes first in the door yard bloom pear performs its triple duty of furnishing pear shade, while each tree bears its fruit in lime walnut and the persimmon are intruded pear.

After leaving the vegetable garden, the orchard might seem tame and tasteless to some. But to me the citation of mind is merely transferred, not diminished. There is always something sacred about a tree. A shade tree is cherished for its beauty of foliage and protection of its shade.
A fruit tree has both of these advantages in addition to the fruit whose beauty delights the eye and whose flavor satisfies the taste. Where can one find a more delectifying sight than an apple tree loaded with reddened fruit peeping through the bowers of green leaves? This was indeed the prettiest tree in Paradise.
The hanging clusters of ripened grapes are tantalizing alike to bird and man. I aim to plant in my orchard every tree which this attitude will permit to thrive. The apple, peach, cherry, plum, pear, apricot and quince yield a satisfactory harvest. The fig and the grape enable me to appreciate the scriptural satisfaction of stretching forth ones hand under his own vine and fig tree.
I had forgotten to mention the lilac bush planted hard by the kitchen porch in order that the threnody of Whitman might be more realistic: "When lilies first in the door yard bloomed." And so my orchard performs its triple duty of furnishing pleasing foliage and cooling shade, while each tree bears its fruit in its season.
The walnut and the persimmon are intruding their voluntary presence. The wild cherry, as symmetrical as tree can be, produces a beverage which is as refreshing and satisfying as the law allows. I spray and trim and treat my orchard in happy anticipation of golden harvest as well as for the joy of the thing itself.

All that has been said about the other departments of horticulture must be raised to the third degree to express the joy in the fact that flowers bloom in the spring as well as the fall.
Let us first assume a well-mowed lawn us the black-ground against which our floral display is to be projected. Then look out for the violets in February, the hyacinth, the narcissus and the tulip in March, the heir de lis in April and the roses in May and June. From the violet and the daffodil of February to the chrysanthemum of Thanksgiving Day, there needs be no break in the perpetual florescence.
The flower plots in their proper distribution vie with the variegated shrubbery in completing the artistic color scheme.
The rose is the queen of the garden. They delight us with their beauty and fragrance on their first appearance in May. They fill us with sadness when the last bloom fades away with the chilling winds of November.
Now gentle reader, forgive this idle excursion. But I must insist that horticulture is the only panacea of human ills. While immersed in the delights of horticultural exhibition, the poor man forgets his poverty, the simple ignores his ignorance, the saddened heart lays aside its sorrow, the overburdened sould finds surcease and solace.
