The Broad Ax

The Far Famed Former Heavy Weight Prize Fighting Champion of the World, Is Now Resting Up In the Kane County Jail House at Geneva, Ill As the Fast Express Train Over the Santa Fe Railroad from Los Angeles, California Bearing Col. and Mrs. Johnson, Mr. and Mrs. Brown and Two or Three Deputy United States Marshals, Came to a Dead Halt at Joliet, Illinois, on Sunday Morning, Col. Johnson Was Hastily Removed from it, and in the Twinkling of an Eye, He Was Locked Up in the Will County Jail House, Which Is Located near the Penitentiary in That City. A Wide Gold Band Around His Wrist Securely Fastened Him to the Wrist of United States Marshal Basset, and there was no way for the Former Heavyweight Champion to Make His Getaway Without Pulling the Marshal Along With Him. Two or Three Thousand White and Colored Men and Women Were Greatly Disappointed When Col. Johnson Failed to Hove in Sight at the Polk Street Station, Where They Had Assembled to Greet Him. However, They Had the Pleasure of Beholding Mrs. Lucille Cameron Johnson, as She and Her Little Mexican Dog Emerged from the Train and Were Conveyed Away from the Depot in a Taxi. Monday Morning Hon. Thomas Carey, Accompanied by His Attorney, John F. Hopkins, and S. A. T. Watkins, Representing Col. Johnson, Appeared Before Hon. Samuel Alschuler, of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals and Made Application for Bonds and Mr. Carey Indicated Through His Attorney That He was Willing to Bail or Bond Col. Johnson Out to the Extent of Fifty Thousand Dollars. But Judge Alschuler Brushed All the Leal Proceedings Aside and Judge George A. Carpenter Will Look After Col. Johnson's Case When He Is Able to Appear in Court. Hon. Charles F. Clyne, United States District Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois, Has Ordered Col. Johnson to be Removed from the Jail House at Joliet, to the County Jail House at Col. Jack Johnson who in his day and generation was the greatest of all the prize fighters in the world was widely billed to arrive or land in Chicago Sunday morning from Los Angeles, Calif., where he had been greatly enjoying himself, on landing in the United States. Col. Johnson and his wife, Mrs. Lucille Cameron Johnson, and the deputy United States Marshals were due to strike this city over the Sante Fe Railroad but it seems that the fates or some unseen power decided it otherwise for when the puffing and panting huge engine which was rapidly dragging the long train behind it, suddenly stopped at Joliet, Illinois, and Col. Johnson was hustled from it and after he had been securely handcuffed to one of the deputy United States Marshals, who also had a brace of leg irons in sight and stood ready to clamp them on Col. Johnson, Cheif Deputy United States Marshal Maurice Klein, ordered him rushed to the Will County Jail House at Joliet, Illinois, where he has been resting up from that time until the present and new Hon. Charles F. Clyne, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois has ordered him removed from that jail house and confined in the County Jail house at Geneva, Illinois. Mr. Clyne contends that already Col. Johnson with plenty of money at his command has been enjoyed too much freedom and Mr. Clyne firmly informed Sheriff Newkirk, that it was not his business nor a part of his official duties to give Col. Johnson auto cutouts or airings, "that inside the jail house inside and not on the outside" and that "jail for the Negro champion meant no liberties for him." Mr. Clyne further stated that "Jack Johnson is in the jail house now and he is going to stay there until he is resentenced; that the federal government is going to fight until the last ditch any effort to free him on bonds." "Jail," he added, "is just as good a place for him as any. He will find there plenty of pleasant company of his own kind. "Better men than he are in jail. It is not the policy of the federal government to show gay leniency toward a fugitive from justice. That is what he is. "His friends, of course, have plenty JOHN ARTHUR JOHNSON but they will find the government on hand at every move." On Sunday morning the writer was at the Polk Street Station to see what was going on in connection with the arrival of Col. Jack Johnson and well onto two thousand colored men and women had gathered around it for the purpose of honoring his home-coming. It seemed that many white ladies were dead anxious to fasten their eyes on Mrs. Lucille Cameron Johnson and the crowd was awfully disappointed when it was announced that Col. Jack Johnson was pulled off the fast train at Joliet, Illinois, and that he would be brought into Chicago Monday morning in a fast racing auto. To say the least, the crowd became sad and long faced when it learned that it could not gaze upon him on that sharp and bright Sunday morning. Nevertheless, it continued to hang around for it was fearful that some one was endeavoring to slip something over on it. Finally it was rewarded for its long trouble in waiting for it had the great honor of beholding, for just one moment, Mrs. Lucille Cameron Johnson and her cute little hairless Mexican dog as she was rushed to a taxi-cab, which rolled away out of sight. She brought back with her a great pile of large trunks which were loaded down with all kinds of rich and costly wearing apparel including beautiful white fur and many other trappings to make herself look charming or more beautiful in she sight of Col. Jack Johnson and in sight of his white and colored sporting friends. Mrs. Johnson picked up a great deal of her pretty things which she prizes very highly during their travels through Russia, Poland, Germany, Belgium, France, South America, Mexico, Spain and in other parts of the old world. On Monday morning Hon. Thomas Caroy, President of the Carvy Brick Company, one of the best business men in Chicago and one of the most prominent Democratic politicians in this neck of the woods, with his attorney John P. Hookins and H. S. A. T. Watking representing Col. Jack Johnson appeared before his honour, the Hon. Samuel Alschier of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals and application was made for bonds or bail. Mr. Caroy was willing to sign a bond to Col. Jack Johnson to the extent of fifty thousand dollars, but THE after considerable arguing back and forth between the lawyers representing the federal government and the other attorneys interested in the future fate of Col. Jack Johnson, Judge Alschuler finally decided that in as much as Federal Judge George A. Carpenter had more than seven years ago sentenced Col. Johnson to serve one year and one day in the Bridewell and to pay a fine of one thousand dollars and as long as the court orders of Judge Carpenter had not been fulfilled on the part of Col. Johnson or words to the same effect, that the case should really go to Judge Carpenter. It may be thirty days before Judge Carpenter will be able to occupy his judicial bench and command Col. Johnson to stand before him and fully explain how he happened to become a fugitive from justice for more than seven years. If Col. Johnson can fully convince Judge Carpenter that he never had the slightest intention of horsing or playing with the court, that he just kinder wandered out of the United States in a long deep dream, that for more than seven years he had been working hard and saving his money so that he would be able to return to old State street and later on blow into his court with the one thousand dollars to pay his fine, then Judge Carpenter may grant him a new trial and except a bond of ten thousand dollars for his freedom. COL. JACK JOHNSON. PLEASANT TOUR THROUGH THE SOUTH SOUTH Dr. Mary F. Waring who attended the Federation at Tuskegee last week visited Birmingham, Alabama, Memphis and Nashville, Tennessee, and St. Louis Mo. on the return trip to Chicago. Next month she expects to leave for New York from which place she will sail for Europe in company with Mary B. Talbert, the woman who has done more practical work than any President of the National Federation of C.W. In Birmingham Dr. Waring addressed the N. A. A. C. P. at the lst Baptist Church through the invitation of Mrs. Panline Jackson a very enthusiastic social worker. There were some things said at this meeting that gave an optimistic view of the future. The great need of concerted action in all movements was emphasized and among other things Dr. Waring said: "We must follow the example of the other peoples and nations who have gained strength through organization. Not a multitude of organizations but one strong, big organization that can wield power and achieve the results we must obtain to establish the position we demand. The same privileged and opportunities as any other group of people dwelling in this United States. The employment of reason in our affairs here in America will abolish Jim Crow cars, separate waiting rooms and all other contrivances and needless expenditure of money based on color of the skin and curl of the hair. The latter of which, we must admit, has already been overcome by the art and devices of our lautated Madam Walker and our progressive Madam Malone of St. Louis. we push a man or woman forward Let us boost more and knock less. When we push a man or woman forward we make room for another to move up to his place. An unkind or questionable statement does no good and often injures not only the persons maligned, but the cause for which she stands. The progress of this country since the day when Washington could travel no faster than Moses has been rapid. The nerves of steam and electricity have stimulated scientific development beyond the most optimistic conception and bound the nations together as they never were bound before. They have become in a new sense, members one of another. Is it not imperative that this nation, the American nation whose banner has gone forth to foreign lands bringing hope to the despairing nations and success to the helpless should as one of the of the world, as city jail house, at of her needs and conditions? Can she develop to her greatest strength while she suppresses, depresses and restricts one of her most loyal groups? The people of America must remember we are first of all children of God, then inhabitants of the world, then citizens of America. I wish that every American could keep before him the great motto of Goldwin Smith "Above all nations is Humanity." The time has come for a larger patriotism which will help us to see that the great glory of the United States depends upon its ability to lead in the development of a united world. It can not be done so long as a prejudiced divided people continues to make and enforce laws of segregation of the most trusty and devoted people that America has produced. THE NOMINEE FOR THE PRESIDENCY. By M. A. Majors, M. D. In writing on this subject it is to Rev. R. D. Jonas or Jonah, Who Has for Many Years Made an Easy Living and Plenty of Money by Agitating Among the Ignorant and Thoughtless Colored People, Has Been Captured in New York City, and Will Be Returned to This City to Stand Trial, in Connection with the "Abyssinian Riots." As it has been stated in these columns many times in the past that Rev. or Dr. R. D. Jonas or Jonah was one of the few white men who has for many years been able to make a splendid living for himself and family by agitating and stirring up bitter racial strife between the whites and colored people and he has never had any trouble in gaining a large following among the ignorant and thoughtless members of the colored race by successfully working on their religious emotions or feelings. Rev. Jonas or Jonah has been greatly assisted in that direction through the columns of the greatest weekly newspaper in the world which has always loudly tooted his horn for money and dished up his homely mug for the spe- cial benefit of its blue eyed readers. Many of the colored preachers in this city are also responsible for Rev. Jonas or Jonah getting such a strong hold on the colored people for in the past they have freely permitted him to occupy a seat in their pulpits and assist in administering their Lord's Supper. As further evidence that he stood high in the estimation of the colored people, for when he was arrested in New York City last week many of his colored followers attempted to rescue him from the officers of the law. But since his capture in a nation wide man hunt no power on earth can prevent him from being returned to Chicago where he will be tried for the part he played in the Abyssinian riots in this city. statement, the press and an outraged people argue well for the Republican party in November. At last the Negro has the proof that he will have a friend at court who has convictions against lynching and the courage to speak out. At last we have a great statesman who has shown defiance against outlawry and disorder, contending for privilege, immunity and human rights to all and special privileges to none. This race of ours in this land of ours will now very soon find the operations of government unmatched from the ruthless bands of Southern autocracy and placed again where it rightfully belongs. Lincoln and Frederick Douglass made the Republican party. They built it upon principles too pure and righteous for the selfishness and the ugly conceit and prejudice of the democratic party. NURSING AND HOSPITAL CARE FOR THE SICK. It is becoming quite clear to those who have given the subject any considerable thought, that a course of short and intensive training is all that is needed to fit any intelligent woman for ordinary nursing service. For over twenty years the present Commissioner of Health has been an advocate of this idea as a means of supplying practical home nursing service for these of moderate means, who neither ask nor want charity, but who are by no means able to pay for hospital care and treatment under the present system. He has also taken pains to make it clear that in assuming this position he is not seeking to supplant the registered or graduate nurse with cheaper and less efficient service. The only aim has been to supply a grievous community need for proper home care of the sick and at a cost which families of moderate means can afford to pay. The Chicago Training School for Home Public Health Nursing, which was founded for the purpose of supplying just such service, has already turned out over 5,000 women, trained and equipped for home nursing service, and is still in active operation. In this connection it is gratifying to note that from a high authority a man of ripe experience and eminence standing in the medical profession comes a most emphatic endorsement of the Commissioner's plan as it is now being most successfully worked out in the Chicago Training School for Home and Public Health Nursing. The authority referred to is Dr. Norman Bridge, Emeritus Professor of Medicine, who, in the commencement address before the graduates of Bush Medical College a few weeks ago discussing the nursing care of the sick, said: cial benefit of its blue eyed readers. Many of the colored preachers in this city are also responsible for Rev. Jonas or Jonah getting such a strong hold on the colored people for in the past they have freely permitted him to occupy a seat in their pulpits and assist in administering their Lord's Supper. As further evidence that he stood high in the estimation of the colored people, for when he was arrested in New York City last week many of his colored followers attempted to rescue him from the officers of the law. But since his capture in a nation wide man hunt no power on earth can prevent him from being returned to Chicago where he will be tried for the part he played in the Abyssinian riots in this city. Dr. Bridge, very properly adds, that for the average invalid these are the chief things required of a nurse. He is also not much concerned as to what nurses of this class should be called; but he does insist that they would in no way disparage the dignity or calling of the registered nurse. Nor in Dr. Bridge's view, would the nursing service, as a whole be lowered, on on the contrary would be improved. "And," he adds, "it is a serious question, now being agitated, whether the three year course for a women who has already had some academic training is not six months or a year longer than is necessary." Dr. Philip King Brown of San Francisco, supporting this same view, says: "There is nothing in the training of nurses for the work that most of them do that warrants three years spent in getting that training." Dr. Bridge also calls attention to another phase of the burden which sickness imposes upon people of limited means, a class which comes in for consideration wholly from the standpoint of justice and fair play. This added burden to which the doctor refers is hospital service. On this subject he insists that more hospitals, cheaply yet safely built, must be provided. Such hospitals to be comfortably furnished and endowed so that a patient may be provided with a room for not to exceed $1.00 a day. This along with a less expensive nursing service would go far towards making adequate sickness provisions for practically all the peole. It would also do away with the inevitable class distinction as we now have it, to say nothing of the saving of suffering and lives due now to lack of facilities for adequate hospital care and proper nursing service. ATTORNEY JAMES G. COTTER INDOORSED BY THE THIRD WARD THOMPSON CAPTAINS. On Thursday evening, at a meeting of the Third Ward Thompson organization, Attorney James G. Cotter, candidate for the Legislature in the 3rd Senatorial District, delivered a powerful address to the colored captains and their friends upon the subject of "good government." Attorney Cotter related the story of his fight against segregation and how his resignation as Assistant Attorney General had been demanded by Governor Lowden on account of his stand for human rights. He made a strong plea for personal liberty within the law, and said he stands squarely for equality of opportunity and for revision of the jury system. At the conclusion of the speech a rising vote of thanks was given Attorney Cotter, and the opinion was unanimous that he will be nominated and elected a member of the next General Assembly of the State of Illinois. Washington, D. C.—Differences between Mrs. Mary Chuch Terrell and Mrs. Coralie F. Cook, member of the Board of Education, exist no longer.

Under Act of March 9, 1879. There is a world scarcity of the cane and beet sugars, which are the most familiar forms in which sugar is known and used. But there is not the same shortage of sugar in other forms and which are available for use for dietary purposes in quantities sufficient to maintain and conserve health and physical vigor. Sugar is food in highly concentrated form. It belongs to the carbohydrate group, which includes starch and the cereals. Its important function is to furnish heat and energy for the human body and is especially needed by those engaged in hard manual labor and by growing children. Its food value may be readily understood by the fact that it is easily utilized by the body, 98 per cent of it being available for absorption. Fortunately for humanity nature has provided each of us with a laboratory for making sugar for systemic use from the other foods in the carbohydrate class. So despite the shortage of sugar, most people are accustomed to regard it, it is still plentiful and easily obtainable in other forms. Commercial sugar is made from the juices of the sugar cane, the sugar maple, the sugar beet and sorghum cane, which latter, however, belongs to the corn family and is not closely related to the cane. Dextrose is also well known as a sugar and is found in the syrup made from corn. It is present in bees' honey. Maltose is the sugar obtained in malting grains. Lactose is milk sugar and is found in mother's milk and that of all mammals. So if growing children can have plenty of good milk, they will get all the sugar they need to keep them in good physical condition. H. C.

THE BROAD AX, CHICAGO, JULY 31, 1920 portant part of the nation's daily diet. The heat producing foods, such as beef steaks, rich gavies and pastries, are not hot weather foods. If you want to keep well and comfortable during the summer months, eliminate all such from your daily diet or partake of them but sparingly. Eat liberally of the fruits and vegetables and hot weather need have no ill effects upon either your comfort or physical well being. Good health is not conserved by eating either too much or too often. Moderation and regularity in eating make for both health and comfort. ARE YOU SAVING YOUR MONEY? They say that a fool and his money is soon parted. That when times are good any fool can make money, and yet all of the people should be industrious and practice economy, that is, to so employ the money made as to reap real and lasting benefits. A great many people work hard, make money, and spend it having what they call a good time. It isn't a good time at all. It is a fool time and a slave time. Eating well, and dressing well are alright, and a man of woman should be comfortable with favorable surroundings but when it comes to taking all and has worked and slaved for during the month, or week to get out and spend, heedless of circumstances or consequences, merely to see, be seen, grin and be grinned at, drink the camouflaged soft stuff they are sailing in the cabarets, besides wasting the dear good hours which should be spent in sleep and rest and serious contemplations on a noble life, it surely is not getting any where. The Negro should save his money. Unite his strength, and by his financial power prove himself a great determining force in the nation.

Some big financiers who love the game of pugilistic combat, a sport greater than race horses or Bull fights, rather than have Jack Johnson a competitor in Tin Juann, Mexico just across the border got busy and capitalized the game by getting Jack to come back home. That smile Jack wears belongs to the secret which belongs to Fistiana and the part he will play in putting life in the stock market of the game of which Jack alone is the King. EDITOR WM.

St. Mark Church is now out of debt a portion of the last five hundred dollars were raised on this occasion. Celluloid. Celluloid, from which many toilet articles and limitations of ivory are made, is composed from the cellulose found in cotton cloth or raw cotton. It is treated with a solution of nitric acid which forms it into a pulp very much like paper pulp. It is then washed with water, which removes most of the acid. It is partially hardened and camphor gum mixed with it, when it is rolled into sheets and thoroughly dried. To manipulate it, it is softened by steam and then hardened by drying.

Tombstones have been employed in Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire and Lancashire, England, for purposes of paving, and some years ago the inhabitants of the Vale of Belvoir raised a vehement protest against such stones being used as a pathway leading to the parish church. The local authorities, however, sought to justify the measure on the ground that there were plenty of old gravestones on hand, which, if used, might result in a saving of taxes. An Actual Lottery. Marriage lotteries are still in vogue during October in some parts of India. The names of both sexes eligible for marriage are written on slips of paper and put into separate earthenware jars. The local wise man draws one of each kind and the youth whose name is drawn obtains a letter of introduction to the young woman whose name accompanies his, after which the courting commences. Giving Him His Due "Oratory is a gift, not an enrollment." said the proud politician as he sat down after a hour's harangue. "I understand," said the matter of fact chairman. "We're not blamin' you. You did the best you could." When Collector Is Lucky When collector is lucky.

The author of a book called "When I Was a Boy in Persia" says that certain rugs used in Persian houses have not yet found a place in the American market. These are large felt carpets called kunta. They are made, not by weaving, but by heating the wool together and then pressing it. They are very thick, warm and noiseless, with red, cream and white borders, and with a field dotted with red, black, white, green, blue and golden circles of wool—quite a Joseph's coat in color.—The Outlook. His Reason. Speaking of politics and elections, we knew a man once who announced that he would vote for a certain candidate for office. When asked for his reason, he replied that the candidate was his friend. And when they asked him if he had no other reasons he said no; he said he didn't need any other reason. We have liked this man ever since. The White House. John Adams was the first president to occupy the White House, in 1800. It is a fairly general opinion that Mary Magdalene derived her name from the town of Magdalena, to which she belonged. Some scholars think that they have found her name in an old Hebrew root, and from that derivation they call her Mary of the embroidered hair. Nobody really knows why she was called Magdalene; but she is described in the Gospels as that woman out of whom Jesus Christ cast seven devils. There is no scriptural reason for identifying her with a woman of light character. Marine glue is prepared by dissolving one part of India rubber in crude benzine and mixing with two parts of shellac, by the aid of heat. The waterproof character of this cement in connection with its elastic flexibility makes it a useful substance in many applications to house construction and to furniture. This glue is applied with ease when warm, and cools with promptness. It was originally intended to be used chiefly on board ship and is well known in Europe. An engineer has invented the following method for making hollow concrete blocks. Hitherto it has been difficult to make large cavities in concrete, but it can be done, the engineer points out, by embedding blocks of ice in the mass of concrete and introducing small outlets for the escape of the water after melting. This method also makes necessary the constant moistening usual in concrete work, as it is automatically supplied by the melting it is. Biblical information. The Lookout prints the following information about the Bible. "The Bible contains 3,506,450 letters, 810,037 words, 31,175 verses, 1,180 chapters, 68 books. The longest chapter is Psalm 119. and the shortest is Psalm 117. This is also the middle chapter. The middle verse, however, is Psalm 118-8. The longest name is in Isaiah chapter 8." Philosophy. If I live, another couple of years, I ought to be able to hold out for the rest of my life.—Christiania Tyrhane. [Name] Mary Maodalens. Marine Glue. His Reason. Speaking of politics and elections, we knew a man once who announced that he would vote for a certain candidate for office. When asked for his reason, he replied that the candidate was his friend. And when they asked him if he had no other reasons he said no; he said he didn't need any other reason. We have liked this man ever since. The White House. John Adams was the first president to occupy the White House, in 1800. In those days it was gray, having been built of Virginia free stone. After the British burned it in 1814, white paint was used to cover the marks of the fire, and since that time this paint has been renewed regularly. The White House grounds within the iron fence contain 18 acres, while the ad- joining White House lot has 70 acres. A Three-Century Wink. Spica, which is placed a few degrees to the right of Mars, and has a distinctly bluish tinge, is so remote that its light takes three and a quarter centuries—325 years—to reach us. Thus the light which we now see issuing from the star left it towards the close of the reign of Queen Elizabeth! Help for Ironing Day. Do not discard old mats and carpets. Cover the mats with the best part of the carpet, and make into a pad to stand on while ironing. This will be found very restful to the feet. One of these pads placed at the bottom of the cellar steps, on which to wipe the shoes, will help to keep the steps clean and thus save much labor. Proposition in Sand In Siam a declaration of marriage is very simple. It is considered a proposal merely to offer a lady a flower, or to take a light from a cigarette if she is holding it in her mouth, so that even the most dull of youths need not fear the ordeal. Velocity of Wind. When wind travels at a speed of ninety miles an hour it becomes a hurricane, but it is on record that in tropical countries storms have been known during which the wind reached a velocity estimated at more than 600 miles an hour. One Proper Pride. Pride is of the seven deadly sins; but it cannot be the pride of a mother in her children, for this is a compound of the cardinal virtues—faith and hope—Charles Dickens. Furs and Climates. The furs of animals whose habitat is in warmer countries is not so durable, does not form as good leather and is less supple than the furs from the animals living in colder climates. THE BROAD AX, CHICAGO, JULY 24, 1820 Asheville, N. C.—Now you see where I am, and in a few minutes from now you will not see for I will be away from here and I have been a few places before I got here, but whose business is that? I have been attending to my own business and I think it well for you to look into this kind of business myself. The world has been moving after a fashion, and I rather enjoy getting around with it. Last week I was in Macon, Ga., and there I had a great time with them Knights of Fythias down there. I just walked and talked with them and they walked and talked with me, and we all had a fine time. I had the pleasure of meeting some big pumpkins down there. There was Prof. G. T. Hutto, the Grand Chancellor Commander of the whole thing, and he is one of the finest men it has been my lot to meet, and right by his side was Dr. G. N. Stoney, of Augusta, Ga. The Knights of Pythias of Georgia is the foremost organization in the world, and believe me honey it is making things go. I listened at all them great speeches and other great things which took place there, and I was impressed to a very large degree. I am beginning to realize what we are doing as a race. There were many strong women in the organization, and I shall have something to say about them at another time, and hope you will listen to hear what I have to say about the good people of this world. I am not in a cussing mood, but I am serving the Lord getting closer to Him every day. I sometimes feel like my wings are growing out, and I must get close to the throne for I expect to fly all over heaven. I have heard people sing something about "Verybody Talk About Heaven Ain't Gwynne There." But I have my ticket and my trunk is duly and carefully packed, and some of these days I expect to fly up there and take my place among the angels who have gone on before me, and "Stumps aint no fool." I got into Atlanta, Ga., and had the pleasure of coming in touch with Dr. Earnest Hall one of the most remarkable men of the race and a man who is just doing things. He is doing them up brown or any other way they need to be done up. He has something, that will just knock the devil out of the rheumatism, and put the aches out of you and make one feel like he was a young fellow. I would be pleased to have you look in at the work this young minister is doing, and his office girl is just kept busy all the time answering the phone, and then he is some preacher believe me honey. Now concerning other things, I have been going some. I looked around in Atlanta, touched Rev. H. C. Young, and he is one of the leading preachers in Atlanta, and is a busy man. But I am not to give all my space to talk about Atlanta this week, for I have many other things which must be remembered. I took a trip to Knoxville, and there I had the pleasure of meeting some of the people. While in the city I was the guest of Dr. J. H. Henderson, pastor of the Mt. Zion Baptist church which at one time had as its pastor the Rev. Dr. W. H. Moses, M. W. Gilbert and others. It was a pleasure to me to be with this intellectual giant and at the same time be the guest of Editor W. L. Porter, editor of the East Tennessee News. If you know this young man you know that he is some writer. Now away from that point to the place where I am right now and this is one more high up city, and they have some cultured people in this section of the country. Editor Porter sent one of them ticking messages to E. W. Miller, who was chairman of the local committee and told him that I would be there about 12 o'clock, and honey I was right there on time. He was at the stable and soon had me in an automobile, and booked for the place I am right now. He sent me to the home of Prof. W. S. Lee, and he got right out things would be done. He assured me that he would throw open the door and let me in, and it would not be necessary for me to conceal myself in the hall, but come right in and see all I wanted to see. His life was like an open book and he did not mind the people reading the contents. Dr. J. W. Jones, is just one of the men who is doing things, and don't mind doing them. He has been at the head of the Grand Lodge about nine years, and just to think of it, they took in over 6,000 members last year, and 45 new lodges, and still they are working. He introduced me to many of the leading men in the order and some of them I had met before. I will tell you about just a few of them. The first to greet me was that great educator, Dr. James E. Shepard, of Durham, the president and founder of the National Training School, and a man of the hour. Dr. Shepard is devoting his life to the uplift of his people. I am sure that you know him, for he is one of the best known men in the race. I am glad to see the young men to the front. Next I was shaking hands with another important factor in the race, J. M. Avery, vice-president of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, and a man of letters. This young man has made his way to the front, and has made the world know him. He is not a man of words, but a man of work. He hardly ever says anything but is as deep as the ocean and a thorough business man. It was fortunate that the people got him, and he got them. He is the grand master of exchequer, which means that he is the man who has charge of all the money, and who is busy handling the money for the Pythians. The North Carolina Mutual was also represented by the president, Dr. A. M. Moore, but C. C. Spaulding was not there. President J. B. Dudley, of the A. & T. college was on hand and he had a few things to say to me. He told me about the summer school the largest in the history of the state. Teachers are taking in new ideas, and getting ready to pull off new and greater things. Praise God for all this. I am delighted to be on hand. I tell you this has been a great week with me and I have been mingling with big people. My room mate was Dr. C. S. Brown, president of the Lott Care Convention, and a great educator. He is president of a college. I just shouted all over myself, when I heard that wonderful address of Grand Chancellor Jones, and the report of Prof. Avery, Let the good work go on. There was a conference held with Governor Bickett. He was invited to speak at the Grand Lodge, but he did not come up this time. You see there were some dogs barking for him down about Graham, putting out of business that hellish lawlessness called lynching. It had to go way back and sit down, but some fellow is now pushing the clouds or something else because he wanted to be a lyncher. I hope he is now getting his roasting in hell. The time is and is now that lynching must be stopped, and I would to God that we had more men in this world like Governor Bickett of North Carolina. I have told you about this wonderful character. wonderful character before. I have met some of the Asheville business men, but none impressed me more than C. T. Howell, who is a fine musician and is doing a great real estate business. He is one of the finest musicians in the country, and then he is a business man of the first water. I am proud of him. His partner is A. L. McCoy. I am proud to present them to you. The meeting was held in the Y. M. C. A. building, with Thomas Stokes as secretary. He is a fine man, and I am going to tell you something else about them later. I will have to bring this letter to a stop. Charles E. Stump. A California chemist is said to have discovered a process by which platinum is extracted from the ore which also yields gold and silver. The result is that one company which formerly worked the material for gold and silver alone, recovering $40 a ton of material, is now getting $2,400 a ton in gold, silver and platinum. Beyond Temptation. Junior, who is quite a mischief, was left in the kitchen alone while baby was being put to bed. A few minutes later he was discovered, with a toy in his little list, up on top of the kitchen cabinet. When asked what he was doing, he said: "I'm putting this up where I can't get it." Travels of the Potato. It is believed that potatoes were first grown in South America and that the Spaniards took them back to Europe when they overran Peru. Potatoes were later introduced to Italy, France, England, Ireland and to North America, in the order named. Marble Cheaper Than Pine. The United States commercial attachc in Rome reports that imported pitch pine now costs more than native Italian walnut, and that builders save money by making stairways of marble instead of yellow pine. Florida's Exceptional Climate. Throughout Florida there is more rain in the summer than in the winter. The rainy season begins, it ends a little earlier in the wee-n part than in the eastern part of the state. The dryness of the winters in an important factor in making Florida an ideal winter resort. By far the greatest part of the summer rain comes in the daytime in the form of brief showers, which cool the air. High Wind Velocity. The highest wind velocity ever observed below ten kilometers' altitude was 83 meters a second or 186 miles an hour, observed from a pilot balloon over Lansing, Mich., at a height of about four and a half miles, on Dec. 17, 1919. Ancient Lighthouse. The Pharos of Alexandria, one of the seven wonders of the world, and the prototype of modern lighthouses, cost Ptolemy Philadelphia, its builder, $1,000,000. Though it cast rays for 10 centuries, its site is now a matter of surmise. Suspicious. The head of the firm had secretly called in an expert accountant to check up the cashier. "Have you discovered any evidence of dishonesty?" asked the expert accountant. "Well, I've noticed that he carries a different umbrella every time it rains," explained the head of the firm. A very dignified man, whom I had known only a short while, came one evening to say good-by, as he was leaving on a long trip. When I ushered him into the parlor I discovered that my young brother had hung crepe on all the furniture!—Chicago Tribune. New Idea for Ladder. A new ladder has no rounds, only two steps, one for each foot, which slip up and down in slots along the sides of the ladder. Ascent is made by dragging one foot after the other. Ratchets hold the steps in whatever position they are pressed. How to Petrify Wood. Take gem salt, rock alum, white vinegar, chalk and peebles powder, of each an equal quantity. Mix well together. If, after the ebullition is over, you throw into this liquid any wood or porous substance it will turn the substance into stone in four or five days. In New Guinea each tribe has its own particular system of tattooing the body, and should a member of any other tribe imitate the pattern, it is regarded as quite a sufficient reason for a declaration of war between the two tribes. The Useful and the Beautiful. The useful encourages itself: for the multitude produce it and no one can dispense with it: the beautiful must be encouraged, for few can set it forth, and many need it—Goethe. Poison in Bee's Sting. The secretion of a honey bee's sting is about six-thousandths of a grain, two-thirds of which is water. The rest is the poison. Pavement of Human Skulls.

ILLINOIS TRUST & SAVINGS BAN™ La Salle et Jocheon...Chicago --- We women would be utterly devoid of vanity if we did not want to revel in a variety of pretty country clothes these sunny summer days, asserts a fashion correspondent. Now is the time above all others when we have an opportunity to bring together an assortment of beautiful colors in our dress. In town we are limited to certain styles and shades, except in our evening dresses and our negligees. For the country the gayest of things are offered, and there is so much to choose from that we need to exercise taste and judgment in our selections. The sweater or coat must not be chosen because it appeals to you as a color that you have always liked, but bought with a picture of the entire costume in mind. For instance, one of the new open mesh silk sweaters of a tawny gold hue is charming with a rough silk skirt of blending shade and a white-brimmed old blue straw hat with yellow trimming. The plain type of sport clothes made of dark colored tweeds and similar clothes may be infinitely practical, but why be practical at the expense of beauty? A woman should make a picture in her sport clothes. Coats and sweaters alone offer unlimited opportunities. It is well to be constantly on the lookout for something new in the way of these jackets that take the place of the stereotyped sweater, which is gradually being replaced by models quite as useful and infinitely pretty. The newest coats to wear over light dresses or with a pretty white blouse and skirt are made of a basket weave silk ratine. These come in the gayest of colors, such as hunter green, rose and bright scarlet. What could be prettier in effect than a white silk frock worn with such a coat in bright red, the whole costume topped by a vivid scarlet hat? These coats are smart, too, when worn over a plaited white sport skirt or the plain white skirts made of very heavy gaberdines and serges, or with the white flannel skirts which are so much in evidence this year. Full length as well as the sweater length coats may be bad. Of course, the sweater length is the most popular because it can be worn all day long if one wishes. A coat of this material in rose color has long set-in sleeves and is trimmed with hand-drawn work down the front, the trimming continuing all the way around the bottom and also ornamenting the collarless neck and the pockets and cuffs. AUTHORITY & COPYRIGHT Small hats are always welcome for motoring and general outdoor wear. Here is one, olive green in color, with brown Paradise feathers, affording a most pleasing combination. To Make a Placket. The placket of a skirt may be placed either at the side or the back. The opening should only be as long as is necessary for the skirt to be slipped on and off easily. Leave the placket seam open for about ten inches from the waist, according to the size around the hips, but in all cases the shorter the placket the better. Two strips of material, each half an inch longer than the placket opening should be cut. One strip must be about four inches and the other strip about two inches wide. The wider strip is doubled over and swn to the left side of the skirt to form an underlap, whilst the other strip is faced to the right side. For midsummer dotted swiss is apparently to be a great favorite as a dress fabric. Colored swiss with white dots leads. The widest possible range of colors is in evidence, but there seems to be a pronounced fancy for brown. Frequently a sash of satin or fable ribbon matching the frock in color will girdle it at the waistline. Organile and volle dresses are also in great demand and it is said that dark flowered cotton volle frocks will be active rivals this season of the more costly silk volles and chiffons. "The Vielous Circle." Most people conclude that this phrase, which we hear so often nowadays, is of recent origin, but Amel, the Swiss philosopher, who died in 1881, said, "I trem in a vicious circle." There is also evidence that the phrase wan in use as long ago as 1392, so we have not seen the comfort of a new discourse. HOLLIS The simple lines of this capel-like coat are particularly interesting on this advance season wrap which Parisian modistas have decreed milady to wear this fall. The high collar is another noteworthy feature. COLLAR NOW GETS ATTENTION Neckwear Regarded as Most Important Accessory; Organdie Laces or Tulle Are Summery. There is, perhaps, no accessory of women's apparel so important at the present moment as the frills and falts we call her neckwear. With the ardent beams of summer sun, woman puts away regretfully the too heavy fur she snuggled her throat in during the last few days of spring, when there was still a nip in the air o' nights. Nothing can be more summery than the dainty garnitures of organdie laces or tulle fashioned for just this purpose and giving a touch of lightness and grace to the most sober attire. To brighten a well-known dress they are invaluable. Last year's taffeta, for instance, can readily be transformed into a charming creation by the addition of a collar. cuffs, belt and side puffs over the hips, all made of organdle, cream or light cern, edged with a narrow Valenclennes lace. The effect of newness and freshness is enhanced if the organdle is skillfully employed. A wide surplice crossing in front and fastening in the back with a large bow is suggested. The sleeves must be cut exceedingly short and edged with the same handing of organdle and lace. To wear in the morning with the gingham dress, a real novelty that will meet with approval from the younger set is the large Buster Brown collar of very stiff linen. A ribbon of black mohre, or some color contrasting with that of the dress, passes under the collar, ties in a coquettish little bow in front and falls in long ends, loosely. Some fashionable women like the natural colored pongee collar and cuffs with their tailored suits, but with the novel and original embroideries of real raffia, which comes in every color. These are considered more "elegant" than those of organdie. WEAR VEIL OF METAL CLOTH Headgear for Evening Is Drawn Across Forshead, Falling at Sides, Framing the Face. Many women, says Vogue, have adopted the pretty fashion of wearing in the evening over their hair a veil of metal cloth or of face. It is drawn across the forehead and falls at the sides framing the face. In one of the orchestra chairs at the theater recently was a young woman an wearing a gown of blue velvet, its decapellage edged with blue fox. Several layers of jet or of silver lame swathed her head as closely as a bathing cap and at intervals strings of pearls and jet hung to her waist. In fact, the small, closefitting turban seems to have been widely adopted for evening wear, as a number of them are seen. One of silver wool was folded singly into a point and securely bound by cords of the same material finished with tassels. Another was of black velvet, apparently held in place by strands of jet which passed over the wearer's shaped head and hung beneath her chin and the smart little hat of belge silk thread owed its distinction to an unusual trimming of guinea feathers. Summer suits of shantung are made with plain two-piece slim skirts and seal-dipped jackets, some on regular tailored lines; others with three-quarter length sleeves, the cuffs, collar and pocket faps trimmed with knife plattings of the shantung. A summer stole is of gray caramel edged with a plaiting of gray georgette. To Destroy Red Ants Soak a sponge in sweetened water, wring and place where the ants have easy access to it.
