ANTI-LYNCH BILL
INTRODUCED IN
CONGRESS AGAIN
Rep. Dyer, (Rep., Mo.) Advocates Again Law to Halt Mobs.
FIRST BILL IN 1922
House Passed Measure But Senate Has Balked.
WASHINGTON, D.C. (CNS) — Representative Leonidas Dyer, (Rep. Mo) has re-introduced his bill to assure all persons within the jurisdiction of the United States of equal protection of the laws, and to punish the crime of lynching.
According to the bill, a mob is three or more persons acting in concern without authority of law to do a person physical injury.
State or municipal officers, if found guilty of failure to protect prisoners in their charge, would be liable under the bill to $5000 fine or five years' imprisonment.
Such officers, if they aided the mob, could be punished amounting to less than five years.
The U.S. district courts would have jurisdiction under the law wherever a state court appeared negligent in publishing members of mobs, where jurors in state courts are sympathetic to the mob members still at liberty thirty days after the crime.
Forfeit $10,000
Any county in which a lynching occurs shall forfeit $10,000 to the United States for the use of the family, if any, of the persons lynchened. Where two or more counties are involved they are held jointly and severally liable for the $10,000 forfeitures lynched by U.S. mobs would also be protected by the Dyer bill if it is engaged.
Bill Is Same
The bill is the same as that introduced by Rep. Dyer and Senator Robert Dyer. The Senate rejected it in May, 1928. The first Dyer bill passed the House in 1928 and has been reintroduced by Dyer in each succeeding Congress. In April, 1928 and 1928, Rep. Victor (Socialist, Wis.) introduced a bill, which the house has ignored. Mr. Berger's bill set the fine for negligent state or city officials at and imprisonment at ten years.
Lynching
NAACP. records show over 99
women lynched since 1889. Total
the US, showed 3359 lynchings in
the last in the 36 years ending
with 1925.
Johnson Testifies
Citing decrease in U.S. lynchings from 83 in 1820 to 18 in 1925 James Wadson Johnson of the N.A.A.C.P. lynching before the Senate Com- mand admitted decrease but added that 18 lynchings in a country like the U.S. are just 18 too many. There were eleven lynchings in the year, 1923.
1929
The most atrocious lynching of the year was that of Charles Sheepard near Jackson, Miss. January, 1929. Lynching was advertised seven百六十 personage so that a crowd of 600 persons were cut off by the mob and his legs burned off first to prevent his execution. He was tortured 45 minutes, the burning man cursed and culled upon his tormentors until he died.

Only Race Lad

from New Jersey Lad, Mailed
Australia.
COLON, Panama. — The Panama Triune reports that Robert White Lanier, whose home is with his sister, at 29 Orient avenue, Jersey City, is the only race lad with Commander Byrd now in the Antarctic region with the South Polar expedition.
When the first ship of the expedition left New York, Lanier was on board as a stowaway. He was landed at Cristobal, in the Panama Canal Zone.
Lanier himself declared that he satisfied Captain Byrd who wanted him to remain then but the commander-in-chief received false reports from the United States that his character was not the best and was hence sent back to Panama and was then set out on foot from New York to answer these accusations.
Charges Unfounded
When he got back to New York friends sided him and he was able to prepare the charges and then set out on foot from New York for San Francisco in order to catch a steamer there for Australia.
He reports having been caught in a wormy and was near freezing to dead.
On another occasion he was picked up more dead than alive in the Nevada desert by H. R. Frather, of the Bradley News Company.
He reports having been given a job on the Oceans-Orientation Company's steamer Golden State, which carried him to Australia where he joined the expedition on January 28, 1929.
His friends who befriended Lanier here have received letters and periodicals from him mailed in Australia.
ATLANTA. Ga. (A N P) — Something in chicken stealing, the anesthetizing of an enticeved dog to them with chloroform to keep them quies was revealed in city court at Decatur when Walter Dorsey pleaded guilty to stealing chickens on a large scale.
"I just spray 'em with chloroform," he said. "I then I stand back and wait. It takes only about a minute, then I flip off the roost, and are all ready for my sack." Dorsey said he got the idea by watching the application of anesthetics who he was a patient for one year in a hospital.

PERRY HOWARD REINSTATED, RESIGNS
Attorney-General Says Res
signation Was Not Re
quested. ____
THREE CANDIDATES
WASHINGTON, D. C. Perry W. Howard, Republican national committeeman for Mississippi, who was recently acquitted of charges of bartering Federal offices, resigned Monday as a special assistant to the attorney general. He will enter the general practice of law here. His resignation was coincident with the lifting of the order suspending him from duty and pay following his indictment by a Federal grand jury in Mississippi in last July on charges in connection with patronage.
Not Asked to Resign
Attorney General William D. Mitchell, whose acceptance of the resignation came the same time, said that he had not requested Mr. Howard to resign.
Mr. Howard intimated that eight years of service would be sufficient. His resignation, he 'emphasized, had nothing to do with his position on the national commit-
"Just Getting in"
"I am not getting out of politics," he said, "but am merely getting in. I am notrammed, owing no allegiance except to my constituents and my race." He has been besieged with requests for speaking engagements. He said he would accept and fill most of them. Mr. Howard's was the first appointment of a colored man made by the Attorney General, appointed a special assistant, the Attorney General by Attorney General Harry M. Daughtry, May 15, 2001. His salary was increased to $6,000 a year later and he enjoyed the distinction of being the highest salaried colored man in the Government ser-
Three Mentioned
Chief consideration for the vacancy in the Department of Justice left by Mr. Howard is being given to Mr. Charles C. Galloway, of Kansas City, Mo. and Raymond Pace Alexander of Philadelphia, Pa. There is also possibility of a colored man being made a statutory assistant attorney general, but it is remote. There are two probable vacancies in assistant attorney generalships, which has been confirmed in connection with an assistant attorney generalship. It is the current rumor here that the appointment of James C. Tyler, white, to the United States Marshal's office in Mississippi is a reward for his services in striving to convict Perry W. Howard, National Committeeman for Mississippi, on the recent charges of bartering Federal patronage in that case, and was recently acquired at Meridian. Tyler sought to have the nomination sent to the Senate before the recent trial in order to assure the conviction. The counselers, Lamont Rowlands, of Cincinnati, white committeeman from that State, and Mrs. Willebradt the attempt was made, but the nomination from the White House until April 29.

Tells Story
At the hospital, the priest told his version of the incident.
"As I was preparing to retire, I decided to go to a drug store to get a headache remedy. I had taken off my Roman collar and as I started out, I put on a scarf. On my way to the hospital, I looked at a display window, and an officer, came up and asked me what I was doing.
"I told him, but, notwithstanding, he escorted me a short distance to the patrol wagon. I asked him what he was going to do, and he replied he wanted the patrol to take us to the station where I was to be questioned.
There was nothing to question me about, I walked away. The policeman called after me and yelled to halt. I did not stop and he then shot me.
He went to Patrolman Carter, who admitted doing the shooting, he saw a man loitering at Vinewood and Warren avenues.
"We had been ordered to be on the lookout for proviers. I stopped him when I asked him a question. When his answer was satisfactory, placed him under arrest. While I was at the telephone, he ran and after chasing him for several blocks, I fired, hitting him in the leg."

BRICK COLLEGE
STUDENTS WALK
OUT ON STRIKE
Decline to Attend Classes Unless Two Students are Reinstated.
Yield in 48 Hours or Go Home, Is Ultimatum.
BRICK COLLEGE, N. C. — Suspension of two junior students here Tuesday caused a general walkout of the student body. The cause of the suspension in each case involved minor matters of discipline but was magnified in the case the students because both cases involved bagrant violation of the rights of individuals and the insistence upon treating them as children. One student was suspended because he refused to participate in a play given for the benefit of the "Women's Federation." This had nothing to do with his class room.
The faculty declined to the student body. Dean Holloway gave the class 48 hours to return on face suspension.
The following drastic reply was adopted by the students:
"The character of the two men suspended is above reach, also is the campus or in the campus or in the classroom these two young men have proven themselves to be true and law-abiding.
"The home board of the American Meteorological Association has been notified and we, the students, resolve to attend no more classes until these two young men have been completely reinstated.

RICH OIL MAN
HELD OVER NIGHT
IN DIXIE JAIL
Arkansas Cops Didn't Believe Story of Multi-Millionaire They Found in Street.
WORTH 20 MILLIONS
Ky. Lawyer Didn't Miss Man from Jim-Crow Car.
MEMPHIS, Tenn.—Inability to make a Lonoke Arkansas, cop believe he had missed his train, Thomas Johnson, multimillionaire oil man, spent a night in the local jail, Friday.
The oil magnate was taken into custody after being left by a train town. When he told the town that he was from Oklahoma he had gone to settle a law suit involving valuable oil lands, the cop thought he was insane and took him into custody. In the town found a telephone addressed to Judre Bunk Garder, white, of Mafield, KY., and developed he was the attorney for the oil man and had accompanied him on the trip from Oklahoma. But Johnson rode in the Jim crow car while his attorney travelled in the regular white section of the train and was not aware that his client had left. He was taken from Oklahoma, where a law out involving the estate was to be need but which had been postponed for trial on July 1. When told that his client was being taken to them he sent him to Memphis where he would be joined by Kentucky friends.
A year ago, Mr. Johnson was awarded a tract of oil land in Oklahoma by the Dawes Commission. Shortly there was an estate would be worth in the neighborhood of $20,000,000 and a number of law suits immediately cropped up. There are more than 20 personaltempting to get a share of the land.

"My back ached and I could not stay in bed, with any ease. Any-way I turned I was in misery.
"I tried different remedies till I heard of Black-Draught. I took a couple of good, big doses of Black-Draught and saw a big change. I was better—I ate better and slept better. I kept it up till I took a package. I was then able to carry to my work as a railroader and my work is hard.
"I have kept myself fit by taking Black-Draught, and though I am £2 years old I can do my work with ease right along with younger men. I am never without Black-Draught. I give it to my nieces for cold and stormy trouble and it helps them. It helps dizziness and bad taste in the mouth—an all 'round good medicine." Costs only 1 cent a dose.

LILY-WHITES GRIN AFTER SEEING HERR
WASHINGTON, D. C. (CNS)—The Georgia patronage situation is causing no little concern in official circles here. The Lily-White Georgia Republican organization has appointed the Hoover's Dixie manager, and then upset by Postmaster General Walter Brown for a substitute organization of his own, called at the White House May 3, in high dudgeon and on the floor of the "old order" of Republican machine which would include Negroes. After a 40-minute conference with President Hoover the white-whites departed mollified, and apparently satisfied to leave the situation to Hoover. Indications are that the president reassured them that the patronage plan for the South had not been permanent and that work would not occur that it would be in the near future provided that they keep out of newspaper headlines.

NICE, France—The Mediterranean Coast in southeastern France and northwestern Italy is called the RIM.
The foothills of the Alps descend to the water's edge, so that one gets the double advantage of sea and mountain. For two hundred miles there is a succession of one tropical resort after another, each bringing the other in scenic loiviness.
The wealthy from all over the world, especially the English nobility, have built magnificent villas on the coast, with hundreds of square miles of flowers, palms, almond trees in beauteous bloom, oranges, and other plants which make up the luxuriance of the tropics. In addition, there are gardens that are creations of beauty.
The one that I chose is high up the mountain slope with its rich gardens. I knew of no experience working in the garden, gentle winds blow into my room from the great sea and towering mountains, perfumed by flowers and greenery, grown in a window any direction, and all loveliness. It toasted the tastes of a pampered queen who chose it for her last three winters on earth.

SCHOOL BOARD WOULD END "LUNG BLOCK"
DR. WOOD GETS LEAVE
Director Will Attend National Teachers' Meeting.
The Federation of Parent-Teacher Clubs, with its president, Mrs. Laura Wheatley, as spokesman, again asked the Board of School Commissioners in session last Thursday afternoon for a playground at Samuee Coleridge Taylor School, No. 122, Presion street, near Druid Hill avenue.
This school is located in a section commonly known as the "lung block" because of the number of deaths caused by tuberculosis, reported from this area bounded by Biddle and Preston streets; and Pennsylvania virulent mud.
Mrs. Wheatley also pointed out the dangers of heavy traffic. A survey by her association made for one week her year relentless two and a half years serving children in compelled to play in the streets for lack of playgrounds.
William L. Rawls, president of the board, stated that committees from the Health Department, Public Improvement commission and the Bureau of Opening of Streets were working on the matter and that the School Board endorses the plan to wipe out the entire lung block for playground purpose.
He declared that lack of funds may not permit this to be done in its entirety but that as much would be done on the project as the money would point.
Mrs. William Baurensmidt, white secretary of the Public School Association, also urged that something be done in this matter.
Lovey Husketh, Dr. Edward Wheatley and Mr. Solomon DeCourseur.
Board have some landscaping done at the school yards of colored schools. "Many of our children," she said, "do not have well-kept back yards with trees, grass and other plants and they have no front yards at all. And it is now, they come to school and see only yellow clay or cinders in the grass. They have a little tree grass with trees or shrubbery will inspire in them a sense of appreciation for natural beauty."
School 118
Mrs. Wheatley also asked to change the blackboards in a room on the second floor of School 118 which are now stationary. One room on this floor is used as an assembly room for 200 children when it is used for classes. Mrs. Wheatley changed the blackboards as suggested, the adjoining room could be made available.

BADLY MIXED
MADISON HEARS
Wisconsin Capital Stirred Up by Bill to Prevent Intermarriage.
PROF.'S WIFE TALKS
Race Mixing Hard to Stop as Drinking "Likker", She Says.
MADISON, Wis. - While the people of color in Wisconsin are preparing for the legislative fight against a bill recently introduced in the state senate: to making it unlawful for whites and blacks to intermarry, the white people of this university town are debating amalgamation, a white southner by birth and training, and wife of a professor of the sociology department of the University of Wisconsin, was the first to declare her stand on the case of the Baptist Church she asserted that intermarriage was a good thing, and cited examples of mixed peoples to illustrate her point. As Mrs. Linton has just returned from a trip around the world and an extensive visit among darker people, the has been very emphatic in her statements.
Wlry Not Marry?
When asked if she would marry a
beautiful girl, "Other things be-
ing equal, yes,"
"It is as foolish to ask whether one would favor amalgamation," she said. "The question of prohibition as though the United States were bone-dry, and those who advocated some form of 'dampness' in the language in the saying orter." "In fact," she says, "even dry-bone-noodle would be easier to attain than black-and-white." "The black-and-black which many people seem to take 'or granted.'"
Already Mixed
"The fact is that a very large part of our population is already mixed racially, and we have only to decide whether we shall face the fact with equanimity and see what good can come out of it."
She explained that most people do not have to decide whether they will have intermixing or not. She said that the pioneers in race mixture in America have decided to just use a race decided in every every where where the white man has lived side by side with another race. Benefits from Mixing "The benefits that generally come from mixed races are greater virility and fertility," according to Lars, Limon. "No one can be better than a mental power, but greater mental power may seem to go with greater fertility."

Charging that extravagant dress and smooth manners are the open door to the city, the students in hints broadly that there are two types of students who are accepted by the Capital City's smart set; the smooth manned youth who is sought, not neglected by their teachers who by dressing well is able to fascinate the husband!
This means a check in the vicinity of ninety dollars every two weeks. With that amount she may buy anything that her heart may desire, from a doctor to give her social standing, to a Flying Cloud to give her social speed.
But just being a school teacher does not always imply that the individual is to be afforded up to the peak live those select ten who can afford to keep up in lavish apartments and throw expensive parties. They gaze down with contempt on those who are not able to make their eyes look looked in, idolized, and their position envied. Sometimes "the peak" we shall call them, see fit to take in a co-eld. She
"Beat the foolish little girl lets herself become affected to tears just because she can't afford to keep up with a certain group. She does not know that after all these people whom she has loved, she has genuine and are sunny weather friends. They last as long as her success lasts, and as she loses that, she has lost her smart friends. She clever; some play it for the clever; some play it for and succeed. But with her inexperience the littles school girl is invariably devoured by the wolves.
"About the smartest Thing
"About the smartest thing a wom-good character and those of a bad character; of those who possess good scholarships; and those who possess bad scholarships; of those who prove themselves to be real men and women, and those who possess no manpower at all."
"Through this method you will not only be selecting men and women by real manly and womanly spirit, but you will be offering a solution to that poisonous disease, race prejudice."

SAYS HOWARD U "FRATS" DRAW COLOR LINE
Real Democracy First, Says
Student Papers, Lasts for
Only Three Months.
FRESHIES THEN SPLIT
Lights Selected for One Frat,
Darks for Another.
WASHINGTON. (CNS)
—Charging that the various Greek letter organizations are behind the movement to draw the colorline at Howard, Edward H. Taylor, a sophomore challenges the fraternities and sororites to give students with ability and dark complexions an opportunity for consideration as pledges and to live up to the traditions of the founders.
The scathing indictment and challenge appears in the current edition of "Hill-top," the campus bi-monthly, headed "Putting A Question Up to Howard Students."
Taylor, who is dark in color himself, asks the question "Are fraternities and sororites the cause of color segregation at Howard?" He answers this himself.
Among freshmen, he says, real democracy lasts three months. Then light and brown complexioned students leave to separate bodies, leaving the dark skinned students to themselves.
Fraternities pledge new members from the first two groups and rarely select dark students, unless they are the only students that many dark students make high averages in class work but are never considered for fraternities.
Taylor intimates that the fraternities are governed by color standards, and tells how high student achievement should be thought of in scholarship is poor. Sas Taylor to the frats and sororites:
"Open your prejudiced hearts and see if you cannot possibly find a real man or a real woman among the fraternities."

Howard Professor Concludes Survey of Dixie Provisions for Caring for Sick.
LICENSES NEEDED
State Should Regulate Institutions, Says Dr. Jackson.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Dr. Algernon B. Jackson, pr. fessor of bacteriology and public health of the Howard University School of Medicine, recently tade a survey of 120 Negro hospitals extending over seventeen states and the District of Columbia.
The survey was made under the direction of the Council on Medical Education and Hospitals of the American Medical Association.
The report states that in some instances conditions were so serious and disheartening as to prompt the recommendation that the hospitals in question be abolished. But, on the other hand, institutions were found to be administered with efficiency, with service and care as their guiding motives. Such hospitals measured up to the standards of the association.
Among other things, Dr. Jackson recommends that a careful study be made, state by state, of hospital beds, available from all sources, for Negroes, the standard of services rendered, and the proportion of pay and indigent patients. He also recommends that each hospital legitisates certain hospitals to obtain a license before operating a training school for nurses.
29 New Hospitals
In his report, Dr. Jackson, provided the association with information concerning 29 hospitals, previously unreported; that out of 120 hospitals the staffs of eleven were made up entirely of white members, the majority of the staff members were white, of forty-two, the staffs were made up entirely of Negro physicians, and of twenty-one, the majority of staffs were Negroes. On the staffs of the 120 visitors visited the physicians were 482 white, and 515 colored. In the survey included Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Kentucky, Maryland, Ohio, Florida and the District of Columbia.

SAY BENEDICT COLLEGE DEAN IS LILY-WHITE
Educator Active in Politics, Wife Member of G.O.P. Committee.
Necessary to Meet New Spirit of Youth in South, they Say.
COLUMBIA, S.C. (Staff Correspondence) — Besides having a questionable Ph.D. degree, the Rev. Frederick D. Redfern, white dean of Bennett University, white Republican and active in state politics, it was learned last week.
J. Frederick, former high school principal and local attorney, declares that the college dean has participated in movements sympathetic to a regime which would destroy Negro schools in the South. Frederick is a member of the National Republican Committee.

Some time ago he served by Prof. S. S. Morris, an instructor in the school, the students protested against the retention of Dean Redfern on the grounds that his Ph.D. degree was questioned by a U.S. Government re-

The main battle is by most of the students which will come up for alumni action this year is also other reforms needed to enable the institution to keep up with other colleges in this section. They also feel the difficulty in securing the kind of support they will stand up in the face of pressure designed to keep the Negro student submissive.
It has been promised, according to a well-founded and PRO-American that Dr. Redfern will be replaced by a race dean before next term.
Race members of the faculty are almost solidly behind Dr. Redfern, the AFRO-AMERICAN that Dr. Redfern will be replaced by a race dean before next term.

Conference Suspends Two, Drops Charges Against One
The Rev. J. T. Taylor, Accused of Spending Funeral Money of Dead Wife, Satisfies Creditors. W. H. Coston Restored to Membership in A. M. E. Body.
Acting upon recommendations of its judicial committee, the A.M.E. conference indefinitely suspended the Rev. J. T. Taylor, who dropped charges against the Rev. J. T. Taylor and reinstated the Rev. W. H. Coston in its annual session here last week. The decision to approve an executive session where charges against the members were made and placed in the hands of a committee comprising the Rev. D. G. Hill, C. H. Steptau, J. W. Norris and J. S. Collins. Kept Furious. Kept Indefinite, which action was taken
An investigation showed that he was not authorized to collect such funds or that he was not making reports of the charges against the committee. The recommendation of the committee that he be indefinitely suspended was approved by Bishop Gaines.
The committee recommended a suspension of one year for the Rev. J. E. Davis, charged with indiscretions in his field of labor. Following the report, however, the bishop recommended that the suspension be made indefinite, which action was taken.
Rev. Coston Reinstated.
The long feud between the Rev. W. H. Coston, travelling minister, and the Rev. John Cox, Friday when he was restored to full membership by unanimous vote of the body. The Rev. Mr. Coston was late to the meeting, late Rev. J. Albert Johnson in 1922.
The bitter fight between the late bishop and the Rev. M. Coston occasioned many turbulent scenes on the floor of the conference, and Rev. M. Coston defended the private at every session. The suspension grew out of charges involving domestic relations of the pastor.

vice exept the chaplains.
Tt. Col. Benjamin O. Davis and Lt, Col. John

Out to Fight
Mr. Perry Howard was reinstated as special
assisant. fo the U.S Attorney General on
Monday Jone enough to draw a cheek for some

‘Mr. Howard was suspended some nine months

Dyer Tries Again
For the fifth time, Monday, Mr. LG Dyer
(Rep, Mo) introduced his anti-lynching vill
in the U. S, Congress.
‘Since the start of his campaign inaugurated
as a part of the drive of the National Associa-
tion for the Advancement of Colored People t
make lynching a federal crime, deaths by mob
diolenee have materially declined.
In 1921 there were 64 lynchings;_ 1922, 61; 1923,
28; 1924, 16; 1925, 18; 1926, 94; 1927, 21; 1928
1. But during this same period nearly 200
attempted lynchings have been prevented.
‘The effectiveness of the anti-lynching cam-
paign i evident, but we cannot afford to sto
‘at that. Mr. James Weldon Johnson was right
when he told the Senate committee tn 1926.
“even. 18 lynchings in a country like the United
States are Just 18 too many.”
| The NAACP. report for 1889 listed 195
lynchings; 80 of the persons lynched were
waite.
Ne have stopped lynching whites. We must
halt the lynchings of blacks.
‘The agitation for a federal measure to stamp
be not violence should goon.

The drilling being done by the Magnolia Peerroleum Company, one of the large operators, and the lease is owned by John Noble, president of the Bell Pine Company. Prior to the startings of the oil, the editor leased his rights for a substantial sum with the prospect of a big royalty.
Production in this territory which saw a few years ago was thought to out of the oil oil is built to 4,000 feet. Enough wells are being

EXPERT PHONOGRAPH REPAIRING
CHICAGO, III. — Extravangance, and inefficiency in the administration of the business of his office was charged in a statement Tuesday to William C. Huston, commissioner of education of the Elks by Sheridan A. Bruscae, head of the Keystone National Detective Agency, who investigated Elk affairs for prominent New York and Chicago Elks.
The minutes of the 1928 grand lodge show that Mr. Huston's office disbursed the sum of $13,712.20 from August 4, 1927, to August 6, 1928. Of this only $7,004.20 was disbursed to universities, colleges and schools for scholarships. The sum of $1,400, according to the minutes, was spent in connection with the last national oratorical contest. The balance of the amount disbursed was paid out for salaries and office expenses.
Salary £3083
Mr. Hueston received a total salary of $3,083.32. His clerk was paid by the Elks the sum of $1,100. Mr. Hueston also received for incidental expenses of his office the sum of $789.02. He obtained account of the expenditures in connection with the national oratorical contest is given. The minutes simply show that a check for $1,050 for office was drawn to the order of J. Finley Wilson and another check for $350 for general expenses of the contest was drawn to the order of W. G. Hueston, Washington, D.C., in 1927, the expenses of the contest were less than $200
Two Contests
The two national oratorical contests conducted by the commissioner of education were flascos, Mr. Brueaux charged. The contest in Washington ended in a charge made by the guardian of a youth from Norfolk, Va. who won the second prize that he was short-changed of $100 in his prize money. The contest in Chicago ended in a near-riot when the judges were charged with robbery, the color question being injected into the affair; a mass being taken by Miss Nannie H. Brueaux of Washington, D.C. questioned the decision of the judges. The audience believed that the decision was made on the basis of color and not of oratory.
Prolific Writer
Mr. Hueston is a prolific writer, Mr. Bruseau says. His reports to the grand lodge are generalities, from which nothing of the work of his bureau can be gleaned, states the investigator. He suggests that Mr. Hueston clear up the situation by informing the Elks in regard to the cost of operation of his office and the justification for the tax of $15,000 a year that has been imposed upon the brotherhood for the carrying of the work of his bureau. He knows, "The Elks are entitled to know," says Mr. Bruseau, "how much time Mr. Hueston devotes to his duties as commissioner of education for his salary of $3,000 a year in comparison with the time he devotes to his magisterial duties and legal work.
"They are entitled to know how much work Miss Ella Mae Ross. his clerk who is paid $1,200 a year by the order, does exclusively for the Elks and how much of Mr. Hueston's magisterial, legal and personal stenographic work she does." 36 Scholarships
"A cost of $6700 for the administration of 36 scholarships and the staging of a national oratorical contest of the kind that Mr. Hueston staged in 1927 and 1928. is too great

COLORED TRUSTEES FOR MADISON ST
Madison Street Presbyterian Church will celebrate its 81st anniversary Sunday by welcoming five new colored trustees. The board consists of George B. Murphy, president, Dr. J. E. Fisher secretary, Dr. Daniel Brown, treasurer, Carrington Davis and James Callis.
The Afro-American, Baltimore, Saturday, May 11, 1929.
The old Madison Street church building, on Madison street near Park avenue, was given to the colored congregation 81 years ago by whites who set up a self-perpetuating white board of trustees. We saw this board which met last week in the Maryland Insurance building in the office of secretary, John G. Rose, resigned and elected a new colored trustee board in its stead.
The congregation under the pastorate of the Rev. V. W. Walker has been self-supporting for twenty years.
Last October a year ago, the church moved to its new building at Madison avenue near North. At present, there is a debt of $4,000 on this new structure. Old Madison Street church has been remodeled into an office building.

And when he says "Get it," everybody does a "boogie woogie." You'll find out what "boogie woogie" means when you listen to the record—and there's no stoppin' after that.

VOCAL
WITH PIANO
"Union" rates for all marriages will be one of the propositions to be discussed at a meeting of the Ministerial Alliance, which will meet at the Shiloh Baptist Church, May 28, it was intimated to the A.M.E. preachers' meet-
ing Monday.
Attention to the necessity of a thou-
mely understanding on the part of all ministers of the city as to several important questions was called by the Rev. Ernest Lyon. The alliance must put its foot down on things which spoil the dignity of the ministry, he said. If a man can pay the preacher enough money to marry a girl, he should not have her declared the speaker.
Other procedures.
Another procedure about which there should be a city wide understanding on the part of pastors, he said, was the conditions under which fraternal orders are allowed to hold their special meetings in churches. There should be a uniform rule by which they divide proceeds of collections.

BROWNING MURDER
MARY ANN WELLING
brown, bumplin and beautiful, cook and housekeeper for Captain Browne, and her husband as he hurried up the steps of the palatial home of the old retired captain and shipping magnate, a big party over in Calhoun the night before and the day of the occasion had not begun to wear off. Moreover, it was a beautiful morning, singularly free from the fog that so often envelopes the California sun, barely cloaked the California sun was bearing the earth with its strong rays. The city was just get-together in its daily stride and up and down the street could be seen enjoying the coaching of the wealthy owners to downtown businesses.
Bill humming, the housekeeper knocked the front door, entered and sent back to the kitchen where he had dinner meal. There was no one to except Captain Browning so he was very particular. An assistant bachelor, lively absolute, insisted in everything being perfect about the necessarily large and pretentious mansion, and particularly was busy about his meals. He was busy in his breakfast room and putting the flashing tongues on the meal. The captain usually came down to break-ease at nine o'clock and she always a point to be ready for.
Nine oclock arrived and the great alarm clock in the wide hall tollled out the hour. Mary placed the breakfast in an ice bowl at the entrance place and she should hear him come shuffling into the breakfast room. She waited and waited. She waited of waiting and decided to make use of the time by some some potatoes for luncheon. She wondered if the captain Brown was there. He had never been so late before and had worked for him for over the years. "Well," she mumbled to her never can tell what she likeable to tell him. Ten oclock struck. Mary peeped on the breakfast room only to see the captain's chair empty as before, alarms her. There must be something the matter. What in the world could it be? Had the captain been there, wouldn't be that because, he never took a walk until after breakfast when the sun was high. Then had died during the night? Oh, that must be, for although past events, he was for a result of the wilde ear as a result of the wilde ear he had lived in in many years before the mast. Frank she was puzzled and alarmed.

she was justified in doing so.
she was quiet as a tomb,
the footfalls of the housekeeper
hollow and unearthly in the narrow
corridor. With some mischief
dancing at her heart, she
pulled up the bed, she
dressed and walked down the upper
way to the door of the huge bed
where the captain slept.
Her right tap brought no response. She knuckled loudly. The sound穿透 the great building she manned greeted her. Puzzled, she manned bent over and squinted through the great building. She did not sue to on her knees. She did not sit on her knees but she felt justified in doing so when he was two hours late for breakfast for the first time in years. With some difficulty she could lie on the bed. It was unrestured, and she had surprised and started her. Where could the capim be? What could the capim be? What could that he had not slept in this queen fever over; a premonition swept over her.
she turned the doob knob bleeding into the enter, but, the door could not be打开; she was locked! Admitting the captain had studied and study, a great room, with oak, its walls and shelves, used with the old ship master had collected its many things. There, surrounded by books and notes, the sea captain
wrote for many hours every day on his memoirs of a half century at sea. "Probably," Mary surmised, "he is in there." Suiting action to thought, she went to the next door down the hallway and knocked on the knocked door. Still no answer. Again, she pepped through the key-hole.
THE HEADLESS HORROR.
THE HEADLESS HORROR
The sight she saw froze here to the gaze she faced for a full thirty seconds. There in the great chair, facing the door and with the long table table in front of him, sat the captain. But was it the captain? Horrors! Were the minis pajamas and dressing gown was headless? The body sat erect but where the head should have been was nothing but the bloody stump of the neck while the papers and speeding downstairs were paused with the life fluid. With a terribly piercing scream Mary tore herself from the door of the study and speeding downstairs with almost the velocity of a bullet. she burst out of the front door and yelled at the top of
"Murder! Murder! Come quick Captain Browning has been killed!" The cries rang down the streets as heads appeared at windows and people came running Among them was Officer Clancy the patrolman on the beat. He immediately ran up the headquarters and then went upstairs, forcing the reluctant Mary to go along with him to point out the study. He tried to explain that he could open the door, he hurled his huge weight against it. The door, however, was stronger than Clancy. Again his break was in against the break. His way in
Then the front door opened and Chief of Police Corrigan and several detectives came up the stairs. The gatherer entered the room and entered. Hardened in the ways of crime as they were, they stepped back in horror and amazement at what they saw. There sat the headless man of Bainin, the warden's right hand yet grasped the fountain pen with which he had been writing. The room was perfectly orderly. The overturned chair apparently not a thing had been disturbed. A search of the drawers of his desk disclosed several hundred dollars in currency and at least a hundred monstrous pockets of robbery in a motive. The windows were locked tight and they found the key to the study door in the captain's pocket.
**POLICE BAFFLLED**
The door opened and the entire house carefully but after several hours they had to admit that they were stumped. Every door was locked and Miss Welling, the housekeeper, from the door locked, as usual, when she had come to work that morning.
"Well I'll be dogged," Chief Corrigan exclaimed. "This is the darnest case I've ever run with here. Here's an old boy who spent plenty of time on death-kills him but rob him, although there's a fortune within their reach."
"And they have to go an 'cut off his head and take it wi' em and add some stitches to it." I make nothing of that. What did they want to take his head for? And how did they get it? And what of the doors were opened? That is what gets me."
That was what puzzled the entire city. For a week the entire detective force of the city worked on the case but at the time the police had denied not a single clue. The newspapers, as usual, were clamoring for action. Here was one of the most wealthy and famous citizens of San Francisco in the early 1990s and not a single arrest had been made after a whole week. It was demanded that something be done immediately or a call would be made by the leading citizens for a shakeup in the police department. Corrigan was plainly worried. 'His best detectives had failed him. He himself had been unable to find a single clue or motive for crime. The Cincinnati police offered a reward of $10,000 for information leading to the capture of the murderer or murderers. But as yet no information had been submitted from any source whatever. He had been told that if he failed to solve this case he would lose his position.

DARRINGON DISCOVERS
SOMETHING.
Suddenly he was all activity. He grabbed the telephone. 'Hello! Let me speak to Chief Corrigan. Yes, right away. It’s very important. Hello, chief! I want you to find out something. I think you found out something. I want you to arrange with The Eagle, the afternoon paper, to hold space open on their front page for an interesting news item of about 300 words in connection with the Browning case. If they can run right down immediately, they can run right down. No, I can’t explain it here and now but it’s a good lead and everything depends on that news item. Yes. I’m here at the Browning place now. Darringer hung up and sank back in the death chair with a smile of triumph on
Soon the telephone bell rang. It was Corrigan. Everything was arranged. The Eagle would hold up the door. Darlington rushed out of the house with surprising speed for a middle-aged man, leaped into his car and in fifteen minutes was paused in pain. He hurried conduction with the city editor, he came out again and drove immediately to the DeYoung Museum where he asked for theacia in charge, to explain his modern explanation of his mission.
"I am going to stay here tonight in your room devoted to exhibits from the South Seas. There will be other officers with me, but we assure you that nothing will be injured. This is in connection with the Browning case and I know you want to do everything possible to help in the solving of that mystery. Tell your night watchmen you come around because I cannot have that bungling our plans."

Your Handwriting Reveals Your Possibilities!!
HIS week we have three interesting specimens which have come to us from various parts of the cou; try. They show some very interesting characteristics—but your own writing shows others that are just as inter-
Because this is true—because every person's handwriting is interesting, and tells a wonderful story, we are offering a prize of one dollar to the man or woman who sends in the most interesting handwriting week. No matter whether you are a good writer, take a look at the ink and write a single page letter. Do it now—and you may not only win a dollar bill, but also have your writing select'd for publication on this page.
Just then an orderly came in. "Chief, there a colored man out here to see you about the Browning murder case."
DARRINGTON APPEARS.
Corrigan jumped. "Show him in here. Then he thought to himself. "What can we know about this? Well, I'll see, anyway. Can't afford to learn these now."
The door opened and a tall, stern-looking black man, with slightly green skin, grinned at him. The officer waved him to a chair on the other side of his desk. The Negr sat down gravely and without haste.
His name is Donald Darrington; he began, "Known to police in many cities as 'One Day' Darrington because on several occasions he solved difficult cases in less than twenty-four." The Chicago police department for about fifteen years but for the last two or three years he have been living out here on the Coast taking it easy. They discovered oil on one of my farms in Oklahoma so I decided to quit the police
"Well," Chief Corrigan interrupted "what's that got to do with this case? I've heard of you, Darrington, and know about it. You've been busy, right, but not I'm too busy to hold any conversation."
Darrington smiled indulgently. Despite his record, he knew nothing of his ability to "influence" in this ability "Well," he began, "you folks certainly need help. I've been reading a lot about this case and it doesn't seem so difficult to me Just give me a look over the house and look through Captain Brownings' papers and I'm quite sure I can have some interesting information for you within the next day or so."
CHEF DOUBTS DARRINGTON.
Chief pondered a minute. There was no time to waste. Maybe anything Any port in a storm like this. "All right," he told Darrington, "T'll deputize you and see what you can do. If you can find out anything you doing awhole more than that
Darrington rose. "Now," he said. "I must ask you to say nothing about me to the newspapers or any other person that me are assigned to this case. I must have no interference with my work. Tomorrow about this time I shall probably have something to work on. Let me have a badge now and I will go."
Marveling at this Negro's calm assurance, Corrigan provided him with a badge and all necessary credentials. With a smile Donald Darrington jumped from the staircase briefly from the station door. Walking briskly to the cure, he stepped into his roadster and in a few minutes drew up in front of the Browning residence. The policeman on guard at the door glanced at him suspiciously, barred the way, and blacked his credentials. Then stepping aside respectfully, he let Darrington pass.
DARRINGTON AT WORK:
As soon as the Negro entered the room, he whipped out his magnifying Glass and went carefully over every article of furniture, even the table he stood on chairs and studded the long shelves that ran around the room about six feet above the floor. Suddenly he noticed that instinct aroused within him, glanced at one of the shelves intently. Whipping out his notebook he jolted down something and then continued his rounds of
He then abruptly seated himself in the same chair where the headless body had been found. From that position he gazed long hard at the desk, his broken hings. Turning around in the chair he then glanced behind him. A strange light of comprehension flashed in his eyes and again pulling out his hings he hastily noted, notation. Turning his attention to the neat pile of finished manuscript in the upper left hand drawer of the desk. For fully two hours he sat there in the death chair, his hands filled with captain Browning's neat handwriting, meanwhile smoking innumer-

We have a letter this week from Blackstone, Virginia.
Dear Mrs. Jerome:
I have been going with a young man in this town since last October and during this time he has asked me to marry him and I have promised to do so. However, this is not my home town and I have to leave here in April. Lately, I have discovered that he is keeping company with a girl in another city and frequently goes and spends the day with her. When I question him about he denies it but I save noticed an avid speaking of marriage now. It will break my heart to lose him and if I leave here without him I am sure I will never see him again.
Stop trying to hold him and maybe you will hold him better. Do not question him as if you were jealous and fearful of losing him. Have a frank talk with him and tell him you are sincerely interested in his happiness. Tell him that if he loves the other girl that you want him to forget that he asked you to marry him and to go to see. That is would never do for you much harm. You will half his heart. Be candid and quite calm. Tell him that you love him but that you would not want him to be unhappy and would prefer to sidelow him, having him so. This is the sensible way. I believe for now I to look at it. If he is really crazy about the other you would keep thinking of her even after he married you and make you unhappy. But if he you eat at first and is only interested in woman your husband and sincerity will win him back. He will consider himself very fortunate to be loved so unselfishly.

Boru Lucy! She was already uncomfortable and distressed from recent scolding. Everything had wrong just as she had wrong for paint sets for paint sets and cutouts. And now she was told to sit still and be good.
What a mistake in disciplines for that mother! What a mistake in be less can make a make a child sit still and tell her to start being good. For being good implies action. Being good means making a choice between two acts, as action in children's concern.
Looking back over our own childhood, most of us will recall similar moments of discipline, and scarcity shall we admit that, and scarcity shall we admit that, thoughts while on the child of supposed justice Though it may be "good for a child" to sit quiet after some exciting or unfortunate happening, until the body become composed, the body becomes undergone moral improvement during this interval: A good child may be noisy A good child may bum into a noisy floor lamp and knack A good child may punch another boy who teases his dog.

Thoughtful mothers are giving increased attention to the inner being of the small child.

Diseases Which Turn Negroes White
Nature, Through Nervous Diseases, Destroys Skin Pigment, Causing Skin to Become Lighter than the Most Powerful Skin Bleacher.
WHERE are on the n.r. market at the present time in this country various in this age, advertised to make Negroes white. These lotions are widely sold, and it is generally known that many of them will actually lighten skin. Needless to say, chemists have been busy for many years trying to make them will lighten dark skins permanently. Up to the present time they have been unsuccessful. If such an invention or discovery could be placed on the market the person or perhaps he might make a fortune almost over night.

There first appear little white or pinkish spots on various parts of the skin, and neither stinken or rude above the level of the skin. Around their borders the real pigment is darker than elsewhere. The hair in these spots gradually turns white along the skin, and the smoothness in good health and is perfectly normal in every way. except for occasional nervous disturbances. Usually these spots appear on the
It is interesting to note that what science has been unable to do, Nature has done on numerous occasions. The albino species are often cited cases where the offspring of two black parents has been born whiter than any so-called white person, and there are quite a number of cases where people who have been born black have been white during their lifetime. Where Negroes, the offspring of full-blooded Negroes, have been born completely white, it is called albinism. These albinos are pinkish and hairy, while full-blooded hairy and pinkish eyes. They are unable to see well in a strong light and their eyelids are always fluttering. These albinos have not only been found among the African population in Africa, where they are often looked upon as being possessed of the devil. Albinos often appear, also, among so-called white people, where, however, they do not appear, contrast to the rest of the population.
There is a disease called Vitiligo, which affects both whites and Negroes, though it attacks. Negroes more often than white folks are infected. The dark skin. Not long ago news reports told of a black man, in Boston, Mass., who

Dear Friend: Leave the married man cut of the picture and forget the engagement. You are not as yet sufficiently reliable to become a wife and mother. Wait a few years. You do want to meet the man you could reveal 'hat to' a blind person. The married man is not worthy of a wife.

had turned almost completely white, due to the ravages of this disease. It is an acquired disease, characterized by the progressive, disappearance of the normal pigmentation. The skin is often pitted, punkish spots on various parts of the body. These spots are smooth, being neither skinken or raised above the level of the skin. Around their edges, the skin is often thinner than elsewhere. The hair in these spots gradually turns white along with the skin. The victim remains normal in every way except for occasional nervous disturbances.
Usually these spots appear on the backs of the hands, and on the neck, face, scap and other parts of the body. Sometimes they are on the back of the neck, as acquired after the 10th and before the 30th year. In the Louisville Medical News in 1880, 2 Dr. Hall tells of a malatto who, with the exception of a part of the chin and a few small patches on the hands, turned common sense into a large expansion of these spots until they ran into cahal other and eliminated the dark coloring. Stelwagon in his "Diseases of the Skin" states that there are many instances where black Negroes have permanently turned out that once the pigment is removed in this manner it never returns.
The exact cause of Vitiligo is unknown, but it is more frequent in tropical countries are* in the dark races. It occurs generally in adults and children. It has been known to be associated with malaria, eruptive fevers such as migraine, alopecia, areata, scleroderma. Addison's disease and other diseases follow exposure to extremes of heat or cold, or local injuries. While these factors have little in common, they are all followed by derangement of the nervous system and it is thought that the cause of Vitiligo is associated with this. When the spots appear ili-health factors are increased to further increase in the number and size of Vitiligo. Neurotic people are especially susceptible to Vitiligo. In rare instances the spots have been more severely scarred or shocked been very badly scared or injured in some way.
There is no known cure for Villihola. The spots have sometimes been removed, but general health has been improved or when treated with a certain mixture of arsenic. In general, however, the only thing that can be done — to treat the skin — is a weak solution of todine. Of late years many medical authorities have come to believe that the suprarenal gland has something to do, with the possibility of be possible for science of the future to learn how to treat the suprarenal gland in such a wav as to cause the skin of a Negro to turn white? Who can care many and in this day of wireless telephony, television and talking movies, who can say what the morrow will bring forth? Before another person pass wise men of Nigroes white!
For those Negroes who may want it have a white skin for reasons best known to themselves. While Vilhico is a rare disease, it also takes fifteen or twenty, and possibly 30 or 40 years for a victim to turn completely white. And then there are likely to be one or two dark skin cases of "spotted" or "leopard" people one sees in the side shows of our big bicircles are victims of Vilhico, and while they have been exhibited in museums in which any one of them has turned completely white. So until science finds some way to cause Vilhico and then learns to exert its course on all our skin cases of their normal color even though they whiten up temporarily.

HOW TO KEEP WELL
There are two processes continually taking place in your body. One is the building up of your BONE, BLOOD, NERVE and TISSUE, the other is the carrying off of the waste matter and impurities. For every ounce of food you eat or liquid you drink, there is almost an ounce of waste matter that should be eliminated by the way of your KIDNEYS and BOWELS. If your LIVER and KIDNEYS fail to do their duty, portions of this waste matter remain in your stomach and intestines where they ferment, sour and decay, causing INDIGESTION, SOUR STOMACH, KIDNEY TROUBLE, etc. These impurities also take up your blood and carried to all parts of your system, causing a general run-down condition and IMPURE BLOOD.
The surest way to keep well is to keep your liver and kidneys active, your bowels regular, your blood pure and your system clean. There is no better medicine than Spicer's Nux-Herb and iron.

Mast. Africa, the greatest country in the world today stand helpless before the onrush of this horrible malady which leaves in its wake a trail of corpses, disordered bodies, broken minds and wrecked nervous systems? Is science going to be able to halt its disastrous course in the hope of saving it? These are the questions that Pro. Adrian Scotten of the University of Wisconsin, under the Direction of the Wisconsin State Psychiatric Institute and Prof. William F. Lorens of the neuropsychiatry department of the university medical school have asked him. They have issued the following statement which is certainly disturbing:
"Perhaps no disease in the short span of 12 years has wrought so great a havoc, covere: the world so quickly or left so many disabled persons to die, so deceive a deliverance from a life of misery. It is in truth a living death.
"At the present time there are thousands of persons suffering from the ravages of this disease in the United States, although only a few hundred new cases are discovered and reported to the state health departments each year. These scientists report that there are over 1,000 cases of "sleeping sickness" in the state of Wisconsin alone, while the city of Chicago, Illinois, reported over 30 new cases in 1928. The tumble, of cases reported to the authorities is only a fraction of the total number of the people who are suffering from the dread disease, because many people who have it do not know that they have it.

In the "Sleeping Sickness" area, it is common to find victims who have died in their sleep or a total annihilation of entire tribes of people.
Home of Tsetse Fly Sleeping Sickness Area
Just begun to ravage the white world, the unfortunate blacks of Africa have been acquainted with it for well over 150 years or more. In the Congo Free State and Uganda, and in other regions where there are forests, jungles and damp lowlying spots, the disease has taken a heavy toll.
Some idea of the virulence of the disease can be gathered from the fact that in 1891, Captain F. D. Lugard of the British army took about 300 Sudanese soldiers and as many camp followers from the Congo forest area where the disease abounds into Uganda, where it was hardly known at the time. In less than eight years nearly a tail* million Negroes in Uganda died from the malaria infection, the stalwart blacks died in droves all over Africa and the white colonizers stood astonish and bliss.
The whites were not immune. They were attacked by the disease a'd died horrible deaths along with the blacks. The malady also a'd attacked the whitewashed away. Nagana is very similar in its symptoms to the disease of cattle in this country known as "Texas fever." Strange to sav. it has been reported by scientists that "sleeping sickness is harder on white people than on blacks" and cansians catch the disease and are not treated they almost invariably succumb. Out of every 100 cases, 25 recover completely, 25 die. while 50 are left with various ailments as a result of the disease's ravages and at least half of that number are a'd frozen face" that is the total absence of facial expression. In this latter ailment, the victims' faces become set like a prosthetic mask.
The "sleeping sickness" first shows its presence and activity by swellin' of the glands behind the neck, a condition which is accompanied by irregular and intermittent fever. The germs, however, may have been in the body for a considerable period; before any symptoms of the disease show themselves. After a time, usually three months to three years, the germs vain access to the cold in the interior, causing languor, lethargy and gradually increasing agony. The incubation period (time of infection and appearance of symptoms) may be as short as four weeks or extend over a period of several years, depending on the state of the victim's health. Thinalgia session in West Africa, who have lived in the areas covered by the disease, do not consider themselves safe from it for several years after leaving it.
Among Negroes the only external clinical scler. of the disease is the swelling of the slands in back of the neck among whites and mulattoes. In some cases the infection is the irregular and intermittent fever. In some cases the temperature is normal in the morning but rises to 101 in the evening, thus differing from malaria in which does the temperature rises in the morning.

a minute. There is frequent headache, puffiness of face, enlargement of spleen, pain in back and feet, and discolored patches appear on the face, trunk or limbs.
The heart grows increasingly irritable; activity and intelligence give place to laziness, apathy and dullness; the face loses its brightness and mobility the ear lilies droop and drag; the muscles around the mouth and nose become flabby and flaccid; the patient becomes drowsy and when asked a question replies only after a long interval. Tremors of the tongue and shaking of the hands go on at all times and increase greatly whenever the victim moves. Soon there come convulsions as in epilepsy. The intellectual faculties become dulled and impaired and the patient understands only with great difficulty. The sufferer in this stage cries without any reason whatsoever and falls asleep in any attitude or position.
The first stage of the disease. in which there are swellings and fever, lacts sometimes for several years, but takes longer to recover. The nervous tremors, loss of intelligence and anaemia lacts from four to 8 months. Then the sufferers fall deeper and deeper into sleep and never wake up. Wearily these unfortunate drag themselves around the body, relieves them of their heavy burden.
SPREAD BY TSETSE FLY
"Sleeping sickness" is a parasitic germ disease. There are many species of this germ. It is so minute that it can only be seen with the aid of a very powerful microscope. The species which attacks animals was discovered in Grubby in 1847. In 1880 Griffith Evans found it in horses in India. In 1895 Surgeon-Major (afterward Dr) David Bruce found a germ similar to Evans in cases of what was known in cattle as "selset-fly disease." In 1923 Dr Castelain found the germ in the cattle. In 1930 Dr Castelain called "sleeping sickness." In June 1907, an international conference was held by scientists in London to organize research on the subject. Something had to be done. Thousands of Negroes and Caucasians in Africa were being treated by scientists were mounting to alarming figures. In some districts of quatorial Africa there were so many sufferers that practically all work had to be suspended. At this conference Lord Fitzmaurice, a famous British surgeon, said that sleeping sickness caused the disease by the parasite was conveyed by the tsete fly.
This germ is roughly-spindle shaped and inhabits mud and water, however, live in an organism can, however, live in an organism can not only it can live, but it can multiply. When the germ enters the blood stream it darts about rapidly to particles and shows corpuscles or particles in its center is a red spot, while a
of the United States. How, then, is the deadly parasite injected into the bloodstreams of thousands of suiciding Americans? How has this black man's disease invaded the land of white men? These are the questions scientists are asking themselves. As yet they have found no answer. They can merely treat the disease with powerful compounds. Modern medicine, however, must find a way to prevent as well as cure the mannequin that is threatening America, or the disease may become as epidemic as tuberculosis or influenza. Certainly scientists are puzzled, and the layman can only wonder if, perhaps, this spread of "sleeping sickness" in the United States will become as nation-wide as it has in Africa.

The manner of becoming infected with this virulent parasite is indirect; that is to say, a human or an animal cannot get infected without the agency of some blood-sucking fly like the tsetse. Now there are eight species of tsetse that carry the germ. It is somber in color and is about a quarter of an inch long. It affects a belt from ten to thirty yards broad along the banks bounding water shaded by scrub and underbrush. It may, however, be carried 30 yards by an animal or human being it has attacked. It is restricted to areas with dense jungle, Africa, and thrives on the blood of healthy human beings.

All you have to do is
The "sleeping sickness" germ finds lodement in such wild animals as waterbuck, reedbuck and other animals of the tropical regions. They become infected and the tsetse fly sucks blood from the polio-sons fans. The germs multiply in the fiv's abdomen and enter the salivary glands. After 48 hours the fly is infected and becomes a fist. From the fist the germs enter the life fly (about 96 days) any human or animal it sings for blood is infected with the forms in salivary glands.

Johnson Beat Jim Jetiries
by Kayoing Jim’s Brother
Li'l Artha’s Flattening of Jack Jeffries in 1902 Had
Effect on Jim Jeffries in 1910 Fight at Reno—
Jeffries Seared of Johnson.
| While Jack Jonni sion. ia
world’s. heavyweight | champion, _ is
credited with knocking out’ Jim
Seffries in 15 rounds ab Reno, Ne-
yada, July 4, 1910, he really defeat~
ed him eight years prior to the 3c
casion—in 1902 when he knocked
out. his brother. Jack, Jeffries.
No less an authority than Jack
Johnson himself vouches for this
statement ina special story in the
New York Evening Graphic. Jack
tells, us:
“gim was in Jack's corner that
night, I had already started to
hound Jim Jeffries for a fight and
he matched his brother with me in
the hope that his brother would
knock me off and so avoid the neces-
sity of Jim meeting me. So Jack
Seffries and- were matched to ght
at Los Angeles.
“Jack Jeffries was just a fair sort
of heavyweight and 1 knocked him
out in five rounds. As I helped
carry the unconscious fighter to, his
corner Jim Jeffries came climbing
through the ropes and we were face
to face. Looking Jim square in the
eye, 1 said loud enough for every
one in that section of the ring. to
hear ‘Look at yout brother, Jim.
Some day Ill carry you to. your
corner the same way. Jeff flushed
and turned his back ‘on me. and T
knew then that T had his number.
Jefiries Scared of Johnson.
wsim Jeffries at the time of his
retirement loudly told the world that
he was retiring because there was
no one in sight to fight him. | No
matter how loudly he shouted that.
and no matter how enthusiastically
his frlends echoed that cry, listen to
Lil Artur for a moment.’ Jim Jef-
fries retired from the ring because
he was afraid of Jack Johnson. That
was the only reason. He never for-
got what I told him that night. I
knocked out his brother, and he left
the ring 10 avoid meeting me.
“They bad to drag him back to
the ting to go through with our
fight. aud even then he half sus-
pected that I was not going to do
my level] best.
Had Jepries’ Number
_“Let_me tell you another thing.
3im Jeffries, on July 4, 1910, was in
the greatest physical ‘shape of bis
career. ‘They called him a, hollow
shell after that fight. but sight up
fo the time he entered the ring
every writer in his camp was send-
ing out stories that Jeffries was in
magnificent shape. He was in great
shape, physically. but mentally he
was licked before he .entered the
ring. I had his number. always, and
T could have beaten him the’ best
day he ever lived. His style was
made to order for me and T was too
strong for him in close.
“TN never forget that fight at
Reno. It fs as clear in my mind as
though I had just climbed from the
ring. undisputed champion of the
world.
“T came into the ring first, and 1

L.L.L.'s 'Dawn Dance' Sets
Season's Novelty Pace Here
Baltimore society was entertained at its first "Dawn Dance," at Odd Fellows. Hall last Saturday morning from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the L.L.L. Bridge Club was hostesses to more than 200 persons at the season's novelty. Guests came from Philadelphia, Wilmington, Washington, Pittsburgh and Annapolis. Baltimore's elite have seen many 'after' affairs and know something about the "wee" hours but the audacious novelty of the peppy affair given by these ladies will illuminate as one of the events of the season.
The hall was transformed for this occasion into a floral forest with stately pains and fern banks at the back, and a forest behind which truing Hughes' orchestra played such music as only Irving Hughes can suspend. Suspended above this stage forest hung an improvised organ, and the woodwork she shed its light on the brilliantly owned assembly. The lighting effect, diffused and soft, gave the appearance of a suspended dawn to make dreamy atmosphere, and as if anticipating this, the female attire reacted in brilliant and soft colors. The members danced to make dreamy shades organic frocks in pastel shades with tight bodices and full skirts. The only trimming was a front panel extending from the back, and the flower-like pots made from material of each girl's dress. A petaled flower also adorned the shoulder and satin slippers to match each frock composition. The Dawn Dance, hereafter, will be synonymous with the LLL's as they say they will make it an annual affair. Exactly at sunrise, the orchestra played its music.
And by the way, not one of the least of the thrills was the novelty of having the real sun take the places of the electric one as the morning dancers emerged to find the unusual sense of leaving a dance at daybreak.

What Will you do
When your Children Cry for It
There is hardly a household that hasn't heard of Castoria: At least five million homes are never with children, and in your family, there's almost daily need of its comfort. And any night may find you very thankful there's a bottle in the house. Just a few minutes away, you may have a relieved, or diarrhea checked. A vegetable product; a baby remedy meant for young folks. Castoria is about the only thing you have ever had in your own household. Stronger medicines are dangerous to a tiny baby, however harmless they may be to grown-ups. Good old Castoria: Remember the name, and remember the buy. Your kids will be a sleepless, anxious night. It is always ready, always safe to use: in emergencies, or for everyday ailments. Any hour of the day, your kids will be relieved of restless Castoria, was never more popular with mothers than it is today. Every druggist has it.

CARTER—In loving remembrance of my dear husband, Clarence, who died three years ago, May 10, 1926. Not dead but me who loved you. Not osseous but gone before. Not will live but me in memory and will forevermore. By your wife, NANNIE and CHILDREN.
DIXON—In sad but loving memory of my dear husband and our father, Joseph Dixon, who departed this life two years March 11, 1926. How happy we were in days gone by. When our circle was fully complete. But now it is broken—our love is gone. To sleep at the Savior's feet. He shall always be remembered in this world of weary strife. And he shall never be forgotten As long as God gives us life. By his devoted wife and children. MRS. EVA DIXON, MILLEDRE and JOSEPH DIXON, Jr., 915 Sharp St.
JOHNSON—In loving remembrance of my dear husband, who departed this life on May 12, 1928, one year ago today.
We sat by your side dear husband,
We saw your life depart.
And when we knew that you were dead,
It almost broke our hearts.
When a mother breathes her last farewell.
The stroke means more than tongue can tell.
You are missed in the home.
Without the smile of husband's face
By his devoted wife and son, ROSE E. JOHNSON and ALBERT JOHNSON.
PAYNE—In loving memory of my beloved husband, Benjamin, who departed this life one year ago, May 1, 1928.
One year has passed between us Since you passed away
God loved you from the beginning and left you here awhile. Then he called you so glory because there was a faithful angel. Gone but not forgotten. By his devoted wife, JULIA.
PEACO—In loving remembrance of our mother of remembrance, Sarah Lee Gliphn Peace, who departed this life nine years ago today. May 7, 1920.
In the home of fadeless beauty
You are now a shining star;
Dwelling in the Holy City.
With the gates of gold ear.
Oh, wonderful mother, grandmother
and aide.
One who was better God never made
Oh, wonderful mother, loyal and true
One in a million—that mother was you.
For us she always did her best.
She wanted her eternal rest.
Her devoted DAUGHTERS AND
GRANDCHILDREN.

Death of Councilman Rollins
Breaks Republican Hold
on Body.
TARDINESS BLAMED
Republican Members Halted
Deal too Long, Friends Say.
Death reached down its hand
and snatched a chance to have
appointed a number of race con-
stables in the People's Court have
last week when Howard M. Roll-
ins. Republican of the Fifth Disti-
trict was slaughtered suddenly, thus
breaking the slender advantage
of his colleagues in the First
Branch City Council.
With the stage all set and the deal practically closed, the measure which would have given the group four, if not five, officials in the court, was to have gone before the body Monday night. But with the fourth Republican member, the jest that the Republicans hope now to block the Democratic control of the body and the loss of all future appointments.
Tardiness Blamed
Several of the leaders blame the tardiness of some of the Republican members for the loss of the constables. They point out that several weeks' delay had been caused by the unwillingness of some of the members to agree to the state. A number of applicants, even in the Fourth District, made it difficult to decide upon a slate.
Emerson Hopeless
Councilman Emerson is of the opinion that the best thing which can be done is to halt a clean sweep of present advantage in the case. The Democratic members knew that the measure intended to make a clean sweep and now they have the broom themselves.
The new condition may effect a re-organization of the council at the first chance and will certainly effect future committee appointments. The Republicans, Emerson thinks, lost their chance by tardiness.
