BEATY SCORES THE "JUNKERS" AND SAYS OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW ALRIGHT! THIRTY-SIXTH YEAR. No. 40 to the recent implied criticisms of the letter in the May issue of "The Crisis" (magazine): Washington, D. C., May 3, 1919. Mr. Emmett J. Scott, War Department, Washington, D. C. My dear Mr. Scott—Do not, for one moment, think that the belated attack of Dr. DoBois will in any way destroy the confidence the colored people have in you for the able championship of their interests; you have always been a fierce advocate here, cannot forget that whenever our devoted president, Mr. Archibald H. Grimke, of our great organization, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, wanted to present the grievances of our brave soldiers, it was to you, and not to the editor of The Crisis, whom we are paying $3,000 per year, that we came—and we never came in vain. You took up every case with enthusiasm and indignation at the wrong, and most always at the wrong, for several months the col FRESH OH Written by 'The Old Reliable Throughout What Our People Are Doing Personal, Social, Lodg cal—Marriage --- YOUNGSTOWN.—What to many minds confirms the wide rumor that ex-President William Howard Taft is seeking appointment from the Wilson (Democratic) administration was his positive refusal to call the cell for the N. Y. C. P. conference held in N. Y. C. Monday and Tuesday. Ex-Associate justice of the U. S. Supreme Court, Charles E. Hughes, and others equally prominent signed it, promptly. AKRON.—The hegira from the south continues. Last Thursday afternoon four cars filled with our men from the South, passed through Ohio en route to Michigan. Those talked to, said they were tired of the South's "jim-crow" cars, low wages, inferior school facilities and the lynch mob. That Dr. R. N. Moton claimed the south was the best place for our men, and that conditions down there were "getting better," replied: "Conditions may be better for Moton, but for the masses of us they are just as bad as ever. How can any place where they "jim-crow" us, deny us the elective franchise and lynch us be the 'BEST' place for us?" All were healthy, vigorous and industrious men. CORRESPONDENTS must mail all letters for publication at their main postoffice sufficiently early on Monday or Sunday.

Unless this latter is done, proper credit IN UNION IN CHRISTIAN LYNCHING CONFERENCE Of the N. A. A. C. P. the First; of the Week-Prominent Speakers of Bath, Rochester. New York City—The N. A. A. C. "pational conference" on lynching, held here, Monday and Tuesday, was another of its many "mass meetings", or a series of them, for the exploitation of a number of more or less prominent white and a few Afro-American speakers. That is all! Inplain words it was simply another of its many "hot-air" affairs that are now so well known all over the country by our people particularly. The main object was, as usual, to add another excuse for the asking of more funds from our people as was done by the university for a while. When the organization, led by Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, was refused control of all monies raised from the public for Bundy's defense it deserved him in one of his most trying hours. Last Monday and Tuesday many speeches were delivered in Carnegie hall, the N. Y. Bar Association's rooms and those of the N. Y. Society for Ethical Defense and he wain for the Hon. C. Smith, the man who led and put upon a state's statutes the first effective authority against such a country the Anti-Lynching law. The only other state in the Union to have such a law is the Ohio law. We looked in vain, too, for the Hon. Edward D. Green, the father of that law. These two men are in a better position and better qualified to address such gatherings on what should be done to check lynch-murder in this country than any of the theorists and "hot-air" presses, regardless of their prominence, at the meetings, Monday and Tuesday, the Ohio law has been made clear that lynch-murder is that of illinois for a shorter period. Why weren't these men on at least one of the programs? Because they had accomplished something—the only effective legislation in this country against lynching? It would seem so. The invitation sent to Mr. Smith and all the other newspaper men of color in the country was not sufficient in his particular case and we do not Hon. Edward D. Green heiam him for ignoring it. However, he and Mr. Green ought to have been shown "the honors of the meet"—if there were any—for what they have done. They were and are not "hot air pressers." Possibly this explains their absence from Monday and Tuesday's N. A. A. C. P. "national conference" to demand a Congressional investigation of lynching." Despite the fact that the U. S. Supreme Court, years ago, decided that lynching was a matter for the second time, the "objectives" of the conference—"Making Lynching a Federal Offense." Two Negro ministers, whose names I have forgotten, were here in attendance to have been sent as delegates from a local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. There. There were a few from other points in Ohio. They doubtless explained to the secretary of the Association how his "stepchild, the Ohio Beatty," was properly too, it is currently reported here, that the Post-Office Department, controlled by southerners, has "held up" the latest issue of the Crisis because of something Editor "Alphabetical" Dubois wrote and published in it. Thus early have the "friends" of last June, at Washington, D. C., fallen out. SOME LYNCHING STATISTICS New York City—The United States, has long been the only advanced nation that has tolerated lynching, and in the last thirty years, 3,224 persons have been murdered by mobs, according to a report just issued by the N. A. A. C. p. entitled "Thirty Years of Lynching." For this period—from 1889 through 1918—the North has had 219 victims, the South, 2,834, the West 156 and Alaska and other localities 15. Georgia leads with 386 victims, followed closely by Mississippi with 373 victims, Texas with 355 Louisiana with 318. Alabama with 212, Georgia with 196. Florida with 178. Kentucky with 11 white women were lynched in 14 states. Thirteen of these fourteen states were southern states, Nebraska being the only state outside the South which lynched women. The North and West together have lynched 21 persons during the last five years' period whereas during the same time 204 persons were lynched in the South. THE GAZETTE Washington Branch of the N. A.

DuBois ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25,1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, MAY 10, 1919 tor of the Crisis was preaching complete surrender. "Forget your grievances and look to the bills!" was his slogan; and as the war went on, and you were busy day and night, trying to lighten the burden of our suffering soldiers, Dr. DuBois, instead of giving you support in the Crisis, was using the editorial "Stonewall" and "Steve" and, most of all, he said that we who were asking America to treat the black soldier as a soldier, so to improve his morale, were "forsaking their sons in the blood and dust of battle." No, Mr. Scott, you have been with the Negro, and Dr. DuBois from June (the month of the captaincy episode), to April, was silent upon our burning wrongs, and it ill becomes him to print in his first militant issue in a year, an attack upon a man who fought when he was silent.

MICHIGAN "JIM CROW" SCHOOL To Be. Knocked Out Because it is Contrary to State Law —Good! Ann Arbor, Mich.-Walter Robins and Herman Kersey, representing our people of Ypsilanti, were before Circuit Judge Sample, recently as plaintiffs in an attempt to secure the abandonment of the Adams street school in Ypsilanti. Their petition alleges the school is being conducted exclusively for our children, contrary to state law and constitutes disobjection that the school does not good as the other schools of Ypsilanti, and that the school's sanitation is very bad; also that there is a lack of sewer connection. The Ypsilanti superintendent admitted the insanitary condition of the school, but maintained the board of education attempted to conduct that school along the same lines of others in the city. He testified the board planned to build a new school for our people on the Adams street site, to cost $18,000, Attorney John Kirk, representing the school, to show that our voters very properly beat the proposition. Walter Robins testified that he was opposed to the continuance of the school or any school in that locality because it was a discrimination against the race. Guy E. Davis, president of the Ypsilanti board of education, acknowledged in his testimony that our children of Ypsilanti had been segregated in the Adams street school and white children living in that district had been given permission to attend other schools. Price, principal of the school in question, and himself an Afro-American, testified that he took the principalship of the school only with the understanding that it was to be maintained as a school for our children. The judge will render his decision in a day or two. HON. A. LEE BEATY Ohio's Only Afro-American Legislator General Assembly of Ohio Columbus, O. May 6, 1915. Hon. Harry C. Smith. Editor Gazette, Cleveland. My dear Mr. Smith, I reply to your favor of May 2nd. I beg to advise that I did not "lay down" on House Bill, No. 139, and in support of the above statement I refer you to any member of this General Assembly. The bill was defeated by, (1st) its over-zonal friends, and then, as to be expected, by those who are full of race prejudice. Let me call your attention to the journal of April 17, 1919, and you will see where I made the motion to take up House Bill, No. 139, and at time that I knew that a motion was impetuous and I would be defeating. But a committee favoring the bill were constantly buzzing and nagging me at every turn until for by own protection and to satisfy the committee (?). I made the fatal mistake of making the motion I did. I agree with you in your last issue in which you say that we have at least one law which if enforced would give us all the protection necessary! House Bill, No. 139, was sent to me (From N. Y. City) by the N. A. A. C. P, and I am not the author of it, not have I claimed at any time that I was. But I endorsed it and would do so again. Why should I lay down? I have made many among the whites who are prejudiced. But of that I do not complain. I expected it. But from the members of the race which I was trying to serve—to be criticized by them is not only unjust but cruel! We will adjourn sometime in the near future to meet sometime after the list of next year and I will then rejoin the family and I will take all of the responsibility myself will not permit any one to order me around as was attempted this time. The Republicans of today are not the same kind of men that were here during your time, but with all that if I had of had the able assistance of such men as yourself, instead of being hampered by some very VERY small fry, the Beaty bill might have passed. Thanking you for your kindness in the past, I am Very truly yours, A. LEE BEATY. JUDGE CHARLES R. GRANT Former Presiding Judge of the Court of Appeals, Eighth District, On Our Ohio Civil Rights Law Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor The Gazette, Cleveland, O. My Dear Sir.—Observing your letter in the Beacon Journal, of this city, I venture to send you, under a separate cover, the Ohio Law Reporter of Feb. 3, last, containing the petition of Appeals in the Puritan Lunch Co. we Leonard H. Forman case, decided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for $500 five hundred dollars was sustained.

Madison, J., April 28, 1919. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir: I want to thank you doubly for the clearing up "expose" of the abominable "colored school teachers" scandal" in high-class Washington society. Why were the the mental standing of Negro women to capital? I write with you in the defeat of the Justice Department "adding unnecessary revisions" to your well known and legally recognized Ohio Civil Rights law of 1894. There was a similar successful attempt tried here in Philadelphia and Trenton—it, too, was a frame-up "fave." Wishing you so-called "finn crow" Negro leaders learn how to leave "well ground" alone? Wishing you all of heaven's choice. Healsings. I remain Your friend and well wisher. RIV. GEO. WILSON BRENT. THE BEATY BILL. THREAT. Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 74th General, Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theatre, the place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be denied not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the IN UNION WE IS STRONGER SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should_and must do for themselves in the courts under it. Standard Theater Manager Also Gave Her a Coat and a Diamond Ring and Taught Her to Swim, Plaintiff Charges in $10,000 Suit. George Henderson, chauffeur, taking the witness stand in Judge Neff's common pleas court, Tuesday, in his $10,000 alienation suit against Joseph Grossman, owner-manager of the Standard theatre, testified that the basis of his action was the fact that Grossman had given Mrs. Henderson a diamond ring and a coat and taught her how to swim. Henderson, who lives at 13562 Frank Ave. off Jefferson Avenue, America testified that he was married eleven years ago and came to Cleveland from St. Louis in February, 1917. "I went to work soon after for Grossman, as his chauffeur," Henderson testified. "In April of 1917 Grossman asked me if I knew of a woman who could do housework, as he was going to move his family to his summer home at Beachland. I suggested my wife and she was given the job, and I gave him a job when my wife commenced to show a coolness toward me. Grossman kept handing me notes, purporting to be from a woman. I did not know any such woman, but my wife was given to believe I did." Henderson declared that he personally or privately to care in the pool area, and so did Grossman, attired in his pajamas in the kitchen, "very close to Mrs. Henderson." At such times, Henderson said, his wife was preparing breakfast. Tells of Swimming Lessons, Ete. "In the summer he gave my wife swimming lessons down in the lake." Henderson testified. "He would put him in a swimming lesson with me, the water. Grossman bought my wife a coat and also a diamond ring, which he presented to her through me, telling me to let her believe it was my gift." Ollie A. Walker, 2222 F. 90th St., a chauffeur and friend of Henderson, testified he had seen Grossman, and he would give him a automobile one night at Coastal Ave. and F. 22d St. "The car was going card," the witness said. Gladys Henderson, ten years, old daughter of the plaintiff, took the witness stand at the opening of court Tuesday afternoon. She told of how happily her mother and father had lived until the time they entered the employ of Grossman. "After that time they quarreled almost every night," she said. The child also testified after leaving the Grossmans that her mother had ordered Henderson from the house one day after they moved the rooms at 2350 E. 89th St. Elmwood, Elmwood, Md. The E. 89th St. rooming house, and the first witness for the defense, testified Henderson had not been ordered from the house by his wife, and that he lived there with her from-June to July, when the entire family moved to the Frank Ave. address. Henderson, was represented in court by Attorney George W. Gurney, Grossman, who now lives at a downtown hotel, was represented by Attorney George B. Harris. Mrs. Grossman was a witness for her husband, who denied Henderson's allegations. Henderson is supporting her husband. GOOD FOR THE WOMEN! Strong. Resolution Adopted and Lau- sued Against Lynch-Murder in this Country. New York City. The following resi- solution was proposed by Mrs. A. M. Palmer, president of the Rainy Day club of America, at the convention of the Federation of City clubs at the Astor Hotel- Feb. 19. After an lapping beech by Mrs. Max Cri- Newhaus, this resolution was un- amnihously passed. "Whereas, the American people have protested loudly and effectively against the wrongs of people and races of people on the other side of the Atlantic, ignoring the fact that over ten million native Americans are deprived of rights and protections they are entitled to under the Constitution and laws of the United States, because they belong to the Negro rate—and that American citizens are the victims of mob violence and human international relations, but also imply in the minds of all foreigners a distrust and contempt for our laws and institutions, and. Whereas, the Negro soldiers displayed during the late war a courage and patriotism not surpassed by any other American soldier, therefore be it. Resolved, that the New York City, Federation of Women's clubs express its apprehension of the devotion and insurgency loyalty of the colored citizens of the United States and appeal to the women of the country to uphold the equality of rights guaranteed by our laws and Constitution."

SATURDAY, MAY 10, 1919. Thank you, Mr. Beaty! The Pittsburg (Pa.) Courier will please publish Judge Grant's letter, given elsewhere in this paper, as an answer to the editorial from the Akron Beacon-Journal it republished April 26, '19. Other contemporaries should do likewise. Representative Beaty is credited with the passage of a bill that practically takes from the great A. M. E church its part in the control of the Combined (State) Normal and Industrial Department of Wilberforce university. What was this done for? The state was not asking it. Some of our contemporaries ought to wake up! Ohio did not need "a new Civil Rights law" for the very good reason that it has had a good and satisfactory one for twenty-five years. A few Negro "junkers" were hunting for a little cheap notoriety through the medium of the "late lamented" Beaty-bill. That is all. Read Judge Grant's letter and be enlightened. Speaking of "yellow journalism," we would call the attention of the Pittsburgh (Pa.) Courier and other contemporaries to the fact that IT was taken advantage of recently by some person or thing which sent to it and other race papers a letter, relative to the unlamented make-shift Beaty (?) bill, sometimes purported to come from Cleveland, O., and at other times "placed" at Columbus, Ohio. In one or two cases the line "Associated Negro Press" was used over the fake letter. Now the Negro "junkers" are charging Representative Beaty with "laying down" on that make-shift civil rights bill that the N. A. A. C. P (headquarters, N. Y. city) "wished" on him. He should never have introduced it. Nor should he have supported it if any other member had had the temerity to introduce the thing. If ever there was "a fool tempest in a teapot," it was the incessant howl for the passage of the bill a few Negro "junkers" kept up for several weeks prior to its unlamented death. A GERMAN PEACE? It must strike the average American as passing strange that Germany holds out so insistently for a peace based on the 14 points, despite their present mutilation, while the Allies find fault with them in many particulars. Is it possible that Germany sees in them ambiguities which will serve her ends? Is it after all to be a German peace which will be discovered in the equivocues of Mr. Wilson? RETURN OF THE SAINTS "Viva America! Down with Wilson," is the slogan of the Italian people. No doubt the photos of the modern messiah, distributed so industriously by the publicity committee among the Italians have been chucked into the Italian ash-cans, and the pictures of the saints have been returned to their niches. In this respect the Italians are something less than six months behind the American majority, but they discovered in five months what it required us six years to find out for ourselves. "You can fool some of the people," etc., quoting Abe Lincoln. LEAVE IT TO THE TIGER Despatches from Paris tell us that Premier Clemencau is in receipt of a resolution signed by 5,000,000 American women demanding that all German officers, soldiers, and civilians who perpetrated crimes against women and girls in any allied country shall be brought to punishment. In the resolution the allied nations are asked to take measures to prevent such deeds in the future. The fact that such a resolution should have been sent by American women to Clemenceau instead of to our own representatives in Paris is not without significance. Evidently they take the view that the self-constituted "apostle of humanity" who heads our own delegation is not the man to appeal to if practical results are sought. THOMAS VS. DuBOIS Thank you, Mr. Neval Thomas. Glad to know that some one, other than the writer, has the courage of his convictions relative to that man, DuBois, and will express them publically. There will be many more doing this very thing, ere long. He has camouflaged his way along for a long time and it is about time to call a halt. DuBois is evidently "sore" with Scott because the latter is thought to have caused the former the loss of that captaincy (salary) in the Intelligence Department of the War Department he was seeking last June when he was so anxious to retain also his five thousand dollar salary as an official of the N. A. A. C. P. or as editor of the Crisis. One thing our poor people of this country ought to be made to see and at once, too; and that is that the N. A. A. C. P. is paying its officials too much money in the shape of salaries. We understand that the secretary is paid seven thousand dollars a year. If this is true he and DuBois draw twelve thousand or one thousand dollars a month! Then there is the assistant secretary and the others. LORD! HAVE MERCY! THE HON. A. LEE BEATY Our only representative in the Ohio Legislature has our sincere sympathy, in the matter of his mistreatment by the "Beaty bill junkers," referred to in his letter published on the first page of this issue of The Gazette. Having had experience with their leaders, when a member of that august body for six years and at various times since, the writer is in a position to not only sympathize with him but to thoroly understand what he has passed thru and complains so bitterly of. It is an unenviable experience, to say the least. We "handled" them differently than Mr. Beaty did and that possibly explains why we never felt called upon to complain or even refer to them. They are a set of selfish and narrow-minded individuals of color who have done nothing material for the race, in Ohio, but are continually trying to "but in," tearing down where-ever it is possible if they are not permitted to "but in," and always seeking a place in the "limelight," posing as "great race men." Mr. Beaty should have ignored them, refused to accept their "New York white men" alleged civil rights bill for this state and frankly and firmly told them just what he has written The Gazette and that is, that our Ohio Civil Rights law "IS A VERY GOOD ONE AND IF ENFECTION NECESSARY." That is all any law can do! No law, whether new or old, is effective that is not enforced and our Ohio Civil Rights law is enforced. The only trouble, as we have repeatedly said, is that our people DO NOT USE IT ENOUGH, thus securing a better enforcement of the law—the only way to do so! The courts of Ohio, almost without exception, have been "with us" in the matter of our civil and other rights ever since the enactment of the law, twenty-five years ago, and are still "with us" just as Judge Grant states in his letter, also republished on our first page today. Charged over the deserved failure of their "framed-up farce"—the passage of a bill admittedly unnecessary, as Mr. Beaty admits and Judge Grant proves—the Ohio "Negro junkers," who succeeded in getting N. A. A. C. P. white officers in New York City to "wish" House Bill No. 139, on Mr. Beaty, turned on him and charged him with "laying down on the bill" just as soon as prejudiced white Republican and Democratic members of the Legislature did a good thing with a very bad motive—defeated the bill. This shows well what sort are the aforesaid Ohio "Negro junkers." They attempted to "run" Mr. Beaty and he unfortunately stood their brazen effrontery—the first one in our memory to do so. When he lost his "Birth of a Nation" bill, two years ago, we were anxious to help him but would not even offer to do so without some word from him although we were urged to go to Columbus for that purpose by the leader of the "junkers." When we were in the Legislature we would have none of their interference and that, in no small degree, accounts for our success in securing the passage of our Ohio Civil Rights law in 1894 and the Ohio Mob Violence Act, better known as the Ohio Anti-Lynch law, in 1896. If Mr. Beaty is as wise, in the light of his most recent experience, as he ought to be, he will keep the "junkers" away from him in the future and abandon his present determination to reintroduce the "make-shift" and unnecessary House Bill, No. 139, THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, MAY 10, 1919 DOINGS OF THE RACE 25,000 bodies of American soldiers are being removed from their temporary graves in France by 10,000 Afro-American soldiers. Somebody ought to inform the "Associated Negro Press" (whatever that may be) that its Cleveland correspondent needs his or her head examined. Editor Phil H. Brown, of the Hopkinsville, (Ky.) Saturday News, visited his old home, Ironton, O., recently. His sister died there week before last. A clash between a party of Americans and South African blacks. Apr. 30, at Winchester, southwest of London, England, resulted in the death of three Americans and injuries to thirty more. The fight started when the blacks began paying attention to white girls—something they had a perfect right to do and something eminently satisfactory to the girls. The Americans interfered and the blacks attacked them with clubs. They know better now! British troops finally quelled the riot. In the case of Liberia, Africa, in the Peace treaty, Germany renounces all rights under the international arrangements of 1911 and 1912, regarding Liberia, more particularly the right to nominate a receiver of the customs, and disinterest herself in any further negotiations for the rehabilitation of Liberia. She regards as abrogated all commercial treaties and agreements between herself and Liberia and recognizes Liberia's right to determine the status and condition of the re-establishment of Germans in Liberia.

To submit in silence when we should protest makes co-wards out of men. The human race has climbed on Protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the imposition set would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare, must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many. —Ella Wheeler Wilcox. THE MAN WHO DAKES. "I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, tolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends."—Charles Sumner. FACTS * * * People who Advertise Can sell Goods. * * * People who sell Goods Can make Money. * * * People who make Money can advertise goods. * * * The Best Advertising Medium is “The Old Reliable” GAZETTE. REMARKS ABOUT ADVENTISING While it is true that occasional advertisement will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, persistent advertisement will keep business growing during "dull days." The merchant-who considers riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in January. Do YOU advertise? The merchant who never advertises under any circumstance or condition may imagine he is wise, but his competitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It's a good time to "get awake."

Sister Mary Hilda's Monument Memphis, Tenn.—Eight years ago Sister Mary Hilda, of the Cincinnati motherhouse of the Sisters of Charity, was sent by her superior to our Catholic school here. A year ago she died, laboring almost to the day of her death among her little charges. Our people of this community, Catholic and Protestant alike, determined that her memory shall be kept green, and a testimony of their devotion to the good Sister Hilda have erected a beautiful two-manual pipe organ in St. Anthony's church as a lasting prior to her. It is probably the first time in the history of the race that it has erected a monument to any member of the other race Lincoln excepted, and that such a monument should be built to an humble Sister of Charity speaks well for our people.

Bundy was concluded in Waterloo, IL, and he was given a life sentence.” A new trial was asked for and was over-ruled as expected. We have decided to, go to the Su- preme Court where justice is expec- ted. It was thought from the hegin- ning that it was impossible for Dr. Bundy to get a fair trial in southern Minois. We are sure that the Su- preme Court will reverse the verdict of the lower court. We had seven lawyers—four white and three cot ored—and the leading white lawyev said: “It_is impossible for a Negra to get a fair trial in this neck of the woods.” Tt will cost ten thousanil dollars to take this case to the Su- preme Court. We believe Dr Bundy innocent. He was not “Proven Guilty Beyond ‘a Reasonable Doubt.” The undersigned is treasurer of the local Bundy fund, and will make a full public report of all money received and from whom received—all of which will go directly to the defence of the case, Will you help us?

MAORI'S TATTOOED HEAD OFTCI A SIGN OF DEATH And Cecauee thie Annoying Klepto- mania Led to Murders, Great Brit- ‘gin: PateSeenste: Practices Without doubt the most remarkable collection the Department of Anthro yology of the American Museum 01 Natural History, New York, possesses in the collection of tattooed heads o: ancient Maoris which were assembled hy a Batish army officer at infinite pains and expense in New Zealand These heads, thirty five in nomber, th lustrate all the different styles of the ‘art of tattooing as practiced among the Maoris prior to the year 1831. Al ‘that time the British government for ‘bade further tattooing hecause the ‘bigh value set on the heads by souy. } enir collectors led to the commission of many murders. | When Captain Cook published the ‘account of his famous first voyage ‘around the world, which was made in “1768-71, he described the forms ot decoration which he found in vogue among the natives of the South Sea Islands. Europeans had never before heard of such practices, and were Areatly astonished. Cook's rendering (the native term for the processes snd the result was “amoco,” a word that is now written “moko.” The dec oration is more commonly known ta us however, as tattooing. ‘The old time Maori tattooer sok ax artist's pride in his work and the re sult not being easily accomplished was: highly prized when completed ‘The designs on the heads in the pos fession of the museum are intricate and “really beautifa, and the artis miust have been possessed of grea skill in order to reproduce them wit) fuch accuracy on the uneven surface of the human faceyparticularly in view ¢f the extremely tedious and painfu process that was employed. ‘The tools, which also formed a par of the collection, are narrow comb shaped chisels made from the wing done of sea birds.

FLASH ELECTRICITY FROM EYES Remarkable Dynamo Fish to he Found ' on New Jersey Coast Fishes that discharge electric cut- lents from their eyes: other denizens ‘of the deep who entrap their prey ty eee it in an electric field, and eels whose power of generating elee ‘tricity is so great that the arms of 1 strong man are numbed from contact “with one of them—all these are des- ¢ribed by Dr. Ulric Dahlgren. And ne pointed out that st was only by fish ‘that electricity was produced by liv ‘ing organisms for any apparent use. with the single excention of a mol tus found in Asia Minor. ‘The fishes mentioned by the cap: tain as capable of shocking otler mem bers of the finny tribe by electric flashes from their eyes were alons the coast of New Jersey, he said Some of the electric eels found in South American waters, Dr. Dahigron explained, were capable of gencrating ‘8 current of more than G00 volts, al though they could not as a rule, de liver more than 250 volts, because of the resistance of their own bodies. Certain torpedo fishes were deserib- ed by Dr. Dableren as capable of xen: erating electricity in suffiecient quan. tities to numb their encmies and also to facilitate the capture of their prey. ‘Cactieniiieneiniiios “There's some misunderstanding about bolshevists.” “They discuss thelr affairs largely In the most difficult language on earth; Russian, and illiterate Russian at that Misunderstaading is inevitable.” THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, MAY 10, 1919. aR ET BEES INTERESTING S=¢x9 souprers IN OUR WAR AND PROFITABLE z:ose 22s eclocad papi A trementous ‘selies Price only #20.

HONEY GATHERERS RO. aa SOS eee EER & Lives Life of Ease ‘The study of bees is Interesting and ‘the profits in keeping them are large, considering the amount invested. ‘The worker bee hatches in twenty one days trom fresh eggs, and a dvone in twenty four days. The queen does not go to the fields in search of hon ey but devotes her time to depositing eggs. A company of workers follow end attend to all the wants of the queen. She, therefore, does not have ‘the hard struggles the workers have “when away from hone, and she will “ve to the ripe old age of two, three tad sometimes four years. For a few days atter hatching the worker bee devotes its time as a nurse in the hive, either feeding the queen for young brood or maybe in helping to build comb on pleasant days taking ex- ercise flights in front of the hive to Gevelop wing power and learning to wake their home location. When three 0° five days ol, if the bee was hatcl- ed during the honey flow it will besin its field labor of gathering honey, mak ing many trips per day, working night ind day as if the destiny of the entire colony depended upon her; so that the life or age of such a worker, bee is from three to four weeks. | Im normal conditions, when a swarm leaves the hive, the old queen goes with a great portion of the workers to make for themselves a new home in some distant tee. There is left in the hive a email colony of worker bees ani ap abundance of drone bees, and il thd way from two or three to wen ty or fifty queen cells, and the most 61 them nearly ready to hatch. It one bee hatches a few moments petore her rival sisters she, with xt tendant workers, at once begins “to knaw in the side wall of the queen cells, and when opened the outside Gucen can eusily send her death sting into her sister. But often before ail such queens are killed there will be several hatched, and when they mect there is a pitched battle, biting off each others legs and wings at the seme time each one thrusting their sting with all their strength against their rivals until one or both are deat. | “Only one uaeen will stay 18 a hive, ‘co it often happens that there will be ltwo or three of these young queens, | who, rather than fight for lite, will | {ake a portion of the bers in the hive and go to the woods. Such second or | efter swarms are seldom of any profit unless returned where they eame from. ‘All queens when four to seven days old, will, € weather permits, take thelr wedding Might, select the drone 0: their choice and while on the wing Kecome mated once only and for life. ‘The drone bee never gathers any how €y nor helps in the household duties, He is simply an extiavagant eater and a loafing gentleman, ‘The queen when from elznt to ten days old, or three to five days atter matiig will bepin to lay eges only a few the first day, but rapidly inerea. {ng the number until during the best Gr the brood raising season 2,000. 10 2,500 eggs are deposited daily. | Some bee men clip every qneen as soon ax she is laying, It is no damaie | to her.

To clip her they take her in their lett hand, holding her hy the waist or thorax with thumb and finger, leaving the legs and wings free.

It fs ax cruel to cut the Tony part of a queen's wing as It would be to chop off the whole wing | of a barnyard fowl | Bf several colonies of bees are ready to swarm, it is a great conveniene to the owner on a bright morning wien swarms are coming out (0 take their leisure time to go to each hive where fa swarm hss just issued, and in te grass near the hive finda bunch ot | no tall tree to climb to get the colcny. | Simply return the queen afier tak-r4 | out all of the qucen cells, and if nec | essary remove one ot ino brood «be for empty ones.
