(Special to The Gazette). That the very rank decision, respecting the colored soldiers that are still alive, should be reviewed by an impartial hearing of the whole affair and the things that lead up to the killing, is very evident and desirable. The initiative in this affair should be taken by the Department of War. In approaching this case and its consequences, all bitterness should be laid aside and the unvarnished truth presented. There are several things evident that should be considered: First, the people of Texas did their utmost to discredit and humiliate the colored soldiers and. Second, the colored soldiers resented their mistreatment. Anything happening in that state between the soldiers and the people, the above-named facts are to be considered. The drastic sentence imposed upon the soldiers by the war department and at the same time the allowing of the people who drove the soldiers to desperation, to go free, is WRONG judicially, morally and every other way. That the soldiers refused to hear their officers, under that great strain, was also a violation of their oaths. In view of the facts mentioned there is a very widespread opinion that the court martial should have been influenced by these factors, but they were not, and hence their decision was too one-sided and bore the earmarks of persecution. It is also felt that this unusually severe sentence was given in order to cower the remaining colored soldiers so that an occurrence of the same kind would not happen. If this was in the minds of the court, its decision had the very opposite effect. President Harding must be asked to take up the matter of pardoning these men because of the injustice done one party, to the offence and the practically condoning of the offence of the other party, aggressors in the affair. The long and distinguished service of the colored soldiers should something for them in this instance.

This Administration must establish a policy of dealing with the hostile white people of Texas and the colored soldiers of the Army. These soldiers were in Texas to make America safe from the unlawful encroachment of Mexicans. Some of them are still there to make Texas safe from reprisals by night and day. Being there in the capacity of protectors for Texans and defenders of the U. S. from outside aggression, these colored soldiers should be protected and the Texas whites be made to treat them as American soldiers who are among the "erack" men of the American army. The people of Texas must cease to harass them. They have paid dear for their hostility towards them for interference and persecution will bring greater destruction upon them. If our soldiers cannot be respected as such, they should be removed and placed among people of a higher state of civilization. White soldiers should be sent to Mexican borders. In view of a wrong that has been done American soldiery, we ask President Harding to see to it that this wrong be corrected by pardoning these soldiers and restoring them to their places in the army. Then, too, officers of the army who are in sympathy with the southern spirit, toward our soldiers should not be allowed to hold their commissions as officers in regiments of our soldiers. Some of these southern officers are worse than the Texas "bill-billy" that is always ready to kill. We ask the War Department to remove from the positions as officers of colored regiments white officers who are biased in their feelings because of color-prejudice. (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS Several Victims Dug Their Own Graves —Brained With an Ax—Others Drowned—Horrible! ATLANTA, Ga., March 26—Bodies of six colored men were found today on the Jasper county plantation of John Williams (white) by department of justice agents, led by Clyde Manning, who was employed by Williams, who according to the authorities, has confessed that he aided Williams in killing the men. The bodies found brought the total discovered in connection with the peonage investigation in Jasper county up to nine, three others having been found several weeks ago in the Yellow river, chained and weighted down with rocks. One of the bodies found, today, was taken from the Alcoy river. It had been weighted down and chained, as were those taken from the Yellow river. The other five were dug from shallow graves, the heads of four having been crushed with an ax or some similar instrument. The fifth, officers said, had been shot to death. Williams is in jail on a state warrant charging murder, and his three sons, Julius, Hayler and Marvin, were arrested today. iliams and Manning are being held in jail here under close guard. At the inquest held today over eight of the bodies a verdict was returned declaring the men came to their death at the hands of Manning and naming Williams as an accessory. The first inquest was over the body of John Williams (same name as the plantation owner) whose grave, it is alleged, was dug by himself. The jury was informed that the man was son to a pasture in a ravine to dig a post hole. After the hole was dug, Manning's confession is said to show that he struck Williams over the head with an ax, pushed the body into the hole and covered it up. Johnny Green was sent to the same pasture to bring cows back to the stable. Manning is said to have confessed that he killed Green in the same way, but had to dig the grave. Willie Givens was said to have been killed on his way to a country store, but Charley Chisholm was named as the man who killed Givens. MONTICELLO, Ga., March 27.—Two more bodies of Negroes were recovered from the Alevey river here today, making a total of eleven bodies found since the authorities began an investigation of charges of peonage and murder against John Williams, a Jasper county farmer. Like the first three found, the bodies recovered today were chained together and weighted down with sacks of stones and iron. According to a confession, the eleven men were slain and their bodies made away with in order to prevent them from testifying against Williams in the peonage charges. Manning, it is said, confessed he killed five of them with an ax at Williams' order. The conqueror's jury found that in two cases the Negroes were compelled to dig their own graves. Wil- DAYTON, Q.—Failing gair to $36,000 as a result of finding oil on some ground in West Virginia, leased 15 years ago for 50 years. Russell Ikard recently appeared before the local local legal advisor, C. L. Mills, trying to locate his twin brother so that he can share the fortune with him. The man claimed that his father leased the ground there for them and that it has been held for 15 years. Ikard recently received a letter from an oil company operating there that oil had been found on the place and an offer of $36,000 has been made for it. Ikard could not read the letter, so took it to Attorney Mills. He now wants to find his brother, from whom he has been separated for some time. Any information concerning his whereabouts should be sent to Attorney Mills. Lewis Williams, 3644 Central Ave., who on Thursday pleaded guilty to perjury, in connection with statements he swore to on a bail bond in federal court, was sentenced to five years in Atlanta penitentiary by Judge Westenhaver on Monday. Williams swore to ownership of property at 2191 E. 43d St, when he went bond for a man accused of robbery. Investigation proved the property belonged to another man. This court has no sympathy for perjurers," declared Westenhaver: "I hope this sentence will stand as a warning."

TILL LEADING Synch-Murders of People g Their Own Graves h an Ax—Others —Horrible! The first inquest was over the body of John Williams (same name as the plantation owner) whose grave, it is alleged, was dug by himself. The jury was informed that the man was sent to a pasture in a ravine to dig a post hole. After the hole was dug, Manning's confession is said to show that he struck Williams over the head with an ax, pushed the body into the hole and covered it up. Johnny Green was sent to the same pasture to bring cows back to the stable. Manning is said to have confessed that he killed Green in the same way, but had to dig the grave. Willie Givens was said to have been killed on his way to a country store, but Charley Chisholm was named as the man who killed Givens. Fletcher Smith, body No. 4, was sent to dig a well, and when he had dug deep enough to receive his body. Manning's confession, as repeated to the jury, showed he killed him with an ax and buried him in the hole. In case No. 5, known as "Big John," Manning was held responsible. In the cases of "Little Bit" and John Brown, the jury held that Manning and Chisholm and John Williams, the plantation owner, were responsible. The verdict for Charirey Chisholm held Clyde Manning and John S. Williams responsible. Around March 1, two department of justice agents, A. J. Wisner and E. S. Chastain, came to Jasper county to investigate alleged peonage practices on the Williams plantation. They called on Williams, among others, but it is said that Williams gave "a satisfactory explanation." ATTORNEY W. H. STANTON Secures the Conviction of Three White Rapists of One of Our Girls. MEADVILLE, Pa.—One of the most sensational and interesting cases ever tried before the bar of Crawford county, came to a close, recently, in Judge Prather's court. In Titusville, on the night of Dec. 14, 1920, Blanche Brown, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Brown of Washington, Pa., while awaiting, a train to Meadville, was lured from the vicinity of the Pennsylvania depot by three white brutes, taken to a lot near the tannery, kept in bondage all night, and brutally raped by each one of them in turn. All of them were apprehended, indicted, and the trial set for Feb. 16. Through, and by the advice of W. L. Brown and with the ready consent of the prosecuting attorney of Crawford county, the services of Lawyer W. H. Stanton of Pittsburg were secured to prosecute this case. All of the city of Meadville was on the alert and as Stanton left the courthouse lawyers rushed to congratulate him, millionaires stopped their automobiles to grasp his hand and congratulate him and women who believe in the virtue of their sex, with tears in their eyes, thanked him.

SATURDAY, APRIL 2, 1921 The appointment of Ex-Lieut Henry O. Flipper gives great satisfaction to thousands of our people throughout the country. Thank you, Secretary Fall. He is competent and deserving. Peonage was revived and thrived as no one ever dreamed, under the southern Democratic Wilson administration It is only one of many somewhat similar evils to have the same experience, as our people can best attest. A writer in the N. Y. Negro World calls attention to the fact that Charles Gilpin's play, "Emperor Jones," is very harmful to our people and says that it leaves an impression that the prejudiced South is promoting in various other ways. It is on the order of "The Birth of a Nation," so far as the impression referred to is concerned. This is certainly to be regretted, if true. Judge Walter I. McCoy of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia recently handed down a decision which says, that in order to segregate white and colored inter-state passengers, public carriers must first file their proposed regulations to that effect with the Interstate Commerce Commission. We have always contended and do still contend that our people can knock out every "jim-crow" car law in the South (as far as they relate to interstate and not intrastate passengers) if they will but take a test case to the U. S. Supreme Court. Part of that more than $25,000 a year that the N. A. A. C. P. pays to its four or five secretaries would cover the expense of such a case, too. The general commanding the army corps area in which Boston is located refused to permit regular army soldiers or members of the army reserve to march in uniform in the evacuation day parade in that city. The reason for the refusal was that societies active in the movements to obtain recognition for the Irish republic and freedom for India were to be in the line of march. Upon protest from the marshal of the parade to the War Department in Washington, Secretary Weeks telegraphed that he would not interfere with the ruling of the commanding officer. A similar dispatch was sent by Secretary of the Navy Denby concerning orders that had been issued by navy officers in Boston. President Hardy in a telegram upheld the position taken by his departmental heads. The incident is highly significant. Every subterfuge is being resorted to to entice the United States into participation tacit or otherwise, in the internal disputes of the British Empire. Were similar movements to be set on foot in other nations for the partitioning of their territory, we should see the same sort of propaganda in behalf of one side or the other. The United States must scrupulously avoid entanglements of that sort. States and municipalities may do things highly improper in the National Government. Local bodies may march with those who cheer for foreign partisans, but for U. S. troops to parade side by side with organizations that have for their avowed purpose the furnishing of aid to revolutionaries would be but a stepping stone to intrigue of a more serious nature. President Harding and his cabinet advisers are guided by their duty to America first, and will not be swerved from that course. REMEMBER THIS, THIS FALL! The last of February we wrote Mayor W. S. FitzGerald calling his attention to the fact that vile German propaganda literature, very harmful to loyal Afro-Americans of this community, was being distributed thru out the city and asking him to have What President Harding Said to Our People, Last Fall. "I am for democracy in its fullness." "I shall be glad to see as many Republicans as I am physically able to see; all Republicans look alike to me." "I believe the federal government should stamp out lynching and remove that stain from the fair name of America." "I believe in equality before the law. You cannot give one right to the white man and deny the same right to the black man." "The American Negro has the good sense to know this truth. He has the clear head and the brave heart to live it. I proclaim to all the world the truth which America ought to know, that he has met the test and that he did not and will not fail America. I proclaim that America has not and will not fail the American Negro." "I believe the Negro citizens of America should be guaranteed the enjoyment of all their rights, that they have earned the full measure of citizenship bestowed, that their sacrifices in blood on the battle-fields of the republic have entitled them to all of freedom and opportunity, all of sympathy and aid that the American spirit of fairness and justice demands." "If I have anything to do with it, there shall be good American obedience to the law. Brutal, unlawful violence whether it proceeds from those that break the law or from those that take the law into their own hands, can only be dealt with in one way by true Americans. Fear not. Here, upon this beloved soil you shall have justice that every man and woman of us knows would have been prayed for by Abraham Lincoln. Your people, by their restraint, their patience, their wisdom, integrity, labor and belief in God, have earned it, and America will bestow it." it stopped. On March 1, 1921, the mayor wrote us that he was "giving very serious consideration to the suggestions" anent the matter we sent him. Before and since we wrote him the police of Cleveland arrested persons distributing Henry Ford's Dearborn Independent which attacks the Jews. We have waited patiently but in vain for some action or word from Mayor FitzGerald, the "head" of our Republican city administration. This fall, the local Republican organization will be asking the votes of these same loyal Afro-Americans, both men and women, whom they are allowing Germans, aliens, and their local sympathizers to grossly insult and harm with circulars that are generally known to be a batch of lies. Our local ministers must take up this matter now, explain it to their congregations and see to it that it is not forgotten but REMEMBERED, this fall, when the campaign is on. There is but one way to teach some people that they cannot make flesh of our good Jewish Americans and bone of the good Afro-Americans of this community. Such treatment at the hands of the mayor and the local Republican organization simply will not be tolerated by our manly and womanly residents of Cleveland. If the police can stop the distribution of the scurrilous Dearborn Independent they can be also ordered by Mayor FitzGerald or the Republican organization to stop the distribution of that vile German propaganda literaure. Everyone of our local organizations, secret and otherwise, should take up and discuss this matter thoroughly at once. WHAT SORT OF BARTER IS THIS? The real purpose of the forthcoming visit of M. Viviani to this country is to ascertain what foreign policy President Harding intends to substitute for the league of nations, advocated by his predecessor in the White House. The N. Y. Herald is authority for the information that Mr. Harding anticipates a request from France, and possibly Great Britain and Italy, that the United States publicly announce its approval of the separation demands upon Germany. It is said that compliance with the request is likely to be made, conditioned upon the recognition by the allies of the rights of this country in the island of Yap and that the United States shall have equal privileges with other nations in the development of the resources in mandatory countries. Such a proposition is preposterous, and the Herald may rest assured that its Washington correspondent has been misinformed. The United States has not reached the point where it must purchase recognition of its rights by yielding its stand upon a policy previously announced. American claims regarding Yap and the other mandate countries are one thing, and American endorsement of the reparation program is quite another. There is no relation between the two. The whole tenor of President Harding's inaugural address was that the United States should not become involved in the affairs of Europe, which is precisely what would take place were America to take sides with respect to the terms of peace between Germany and the allies. It is equally certain that Mr. Harding will insist on American rights in Yap and everywhere else in the world. American embroilment in Europe is a price that the President will never pay to avoid possible difficulty in asserting those rights.

Normal Person May Inhale Slight Proportion of Gas With Air. Whenever any substance containing carbon—coal, wood, charcoal, gas, gasoline and the like—burns in an insufficient supply of air the carbon is imperfectly oxidized or burned and a colorless, tasteless, inodorous, poisonous gas is formed. This gas, carbon monoxid, often occurs in mines. Sometimes it escapes from stoves or furnaces in which coal, charcoal or gas is burned. It is also formed as a product of the combustion of gasoline in automobiles and other internal-combustion engines. It may be produced in dangerous quantities when a gas stove is turned too high. Many deaths have resulted from inhaling this poisonous compound. In the past few years a number of persons have lost their lives in closed garages where it was thrown out with other gases from the exhaust of auto engines. Carbon monoxid is combustible, burning with a pale blue flame and being converted into carbon dioxid, normally a product of the combustion of all ordinary substances. In a coal fire the carbon dioxid formed at the lower part of the grate is drawn up through the hot mass of fuel and some of it is reduced to carbon monoxid. Escaping at the upper part of the grate, combination with oxygen again takes place. That is, it burns, making the familiar blue lambent flame above the burning fuel. In the construction of a tunnel for vehicles under the Hudson river between New York and New Jersey the engineers are obliged to take into consideration the fact that the air in the tunnel will become more or less heavily laden with carbon monoxid from the exhaust of the auto engines passing through the bore. To determine the maximum quantity of the gas that may be breathed with impunity the U.S. bureau of mines a short time ago made a practical test of the effect of the gas on humans. Thirteen students of Yale University volunteered to serve as subjects for the experiments. After being subjected to the tests used for determining the fitness of men for military aviation service they separately entered air tight chambers into which measured quantities of carbon monoxid was introduced. They remained in these chambers from two to two and a half hours, sitting quietly with books or papers. Then their blood pressure was taken and compared with the blood pressure at the time they entered the chambers. It was found that a normal person may inhale the gas mixed with air in the proportion of 10 parts to 10,000 without any noticeable ill effects at the end of a two-hour period. Three parts of carbon monoxid in 10,000 parts of air, it is said, may be safely breathed by infants or anemic persons. PAPER SHOES. How To Detect the Spurious Article By Simple Tests. The average man, if told that the shoes he was buying were of part paper, no matter what the price, would probably seek another shoe dealer, says Popular Mechanics Magazine. And yet, on the authority of showmakers, more than half of the shoes sold to-day contain a percentage of paper. But like many other products, even "paper shoes" have improved, and the honest manufacturer of paper shoes has a real excuse for substituting paper for leather wherever he can. But undoubtedly some manufacturers have taken advantage of the general use of paper in shoes to cheapen their product and swell profits. Two simple tests will help in determining whether a shoe is all lather or not. One is to press the point of a penkake on the upper layers of the heel. If they are of paper the blade will sink in readily. The other consists in pressing down the counter or toe; if of paper, it will not recover its shape, but if leather it will spring back again. PROTEST AGAINST WRONG. To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on Protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare, break the speak, or right the wrongs of many. -Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

My ear is pained My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which the earth is filled. There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart. It does not feel for man: the natural bond Of humanhood is severed as the flax That falls asunder at the touch of fire. He finds his fellow guilty of a skin Not colored like his own: and having power To enforce the wrong, for such a wary cause Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey. Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys: 'Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot. —Cowper. REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING While it is true that occasional advertising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant persistent advertising 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 a competition but his competitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It's a good time to "get awake."

He accepted a position with the American Woodmen in Denver. Also Mr. Henry Haynes, expert stenogrammer. The Harmonic Choral society's recital, Tuesday evening at St. John's church, was indeed a musical treat and conspicuous success. This very largely as a result of the splendid work with the organization of its singularly capable and talented directress, one of our leading soprano soloists, Mrs. Grace Willis Thompson. The fifth annual dance and promi- nence, at Dreamland, Monday evening, given under the auspices of the Men's Club, proved the Easter social function de luxe and a financial success, as usual. J. J. Arnold and his associates have certainly made this club one of the generally recognized successful social organizations of this city. Rev. H. M. Kingsley of Detroit, terti- pary pastor of Mt. Zion Cong. church, delivered two able sermons, Sunday. It is rumored that he will accept the charge. He has made a splendid impression on the congregation. Eugene Harris, the new church church, is very helpful in re- building the church. Dr. Chas, Bundy, of St. John's A. M. E. church, preached an exception- ally able sermon on "The Empty Grave." Sunday morning, to a packed church. A crowded house heard the fine musical program in the evening, rendered by the mixed chorus, assis- ted by Madam Rachael W. Turner. Madam Turner again proved herself "a star of first magnitude." Rev. C. C. Ailer, pastor of Zion Hill Baptist church, spent a week in Huron, Mich., recently, doing evangelistic work. Rev.

The following from last Saturday's Cincinnati Union, is of local interest because Cleveland was Lieut. Gamblee's "home of his youth." He still has many friends and acquaintances here: "One evening last week two boys in the vicinity of Douglass School had a little scrap. The one who was licked, went home and told his ma. She gathered together her sister and a couple of women and went to the Douglass School playroom, which was open for the evening exercises. The boy who got licked, got busy with the camera, him and the mother and her bodyguard stood by that the fight was not stopped. The best laid plans of men and mice gang agt agt agt. An interruption occurred. Lieut. Gamblee, physical instructor of the school, rushed in and separated the combatants. It has been said that 'the female of the species is more deadly than the male.' The adage was verified when the foster mother of the 'young Jack Johnson' landed upon Lieut. Gamblee with 250 pounds of solid weight. Is it any wonder that he tripped and fell into the net used in playing volleyball? The rest used in her staff upon him. Messed up in the net with that bunch on top, and having with the same time, he thought of the same day over in France, where he was gassed and laid up from other injuries, but France was nothing like this. He had never before been up against the 'shock troops' of Walnut Hills. The children made signals of distress to Prof. Thorpe, who ran down the stairs exclaiming (so the boys say) 'I am little but powerful!' He leaped to the rescue of Gamblee, who was back on the floor fighting for his life. The time was not long, before Prof. Thorpe found he was not so strong. The pupils ran to Dr. Dickinson's pharmacy for reinforcements. They came on the double quick and the combatants were forced to retreat in the house. The principal Russell, he was not on the ground, and so his face was not scarred, his beauty not marred. The invading force is now on bond and will be brought to the bar of justice Saturday. It is regrettable that such an occurrence ever took place in an institution of learning. We feel that the result will be a lesson to those who so flagrantly violated the law."—Cincinnati (O.) Union. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, APRIL 2, 1921 By Allen Harrison Dorsey. West Tech has shown its absolute freedom from class and race consciousness by electing Teddy Hausbury captain to lead their hopes on the track and cinder path, the coming season. Hausbury, a hard working athlete in almost every branch of sport at Tech, will undoubtedly make good in his new position. The Tate Stars have started their spring grind with Manager Taylor arrived from Indianapolis, Tuesday morning, accompanied by a number of players purchased from other clubs in the league. Nearly all the clubs are in training or about to start. Some recent local semi-pros lined up by Taylor are Harvey, third base; Bonner, catcher; Cooper, first base and Wilson and Boyd, outfielders. The Naco Giants, under the able leadership of Geo. Simpson, are busy with plans for the 1921 season and promising to Rory and Luci Leonard, Bu sensing sensitive erect a large stand. Dave Wya writers, this "good old man" got off to a hot start, made a made a Taylor as my bussy coot that is suffice tea that the best. Last year, a players that contender or averted a sill Jim as gim 1920 audience, a family, a colony, expect to have awe, by doing as heretofore—giving the public a square deal and always telling the truth. Manager Simpson has some Suit to restrain city officials from interfering with sale on Cleveland streets of the Dearborn Independent, Henry Ford's newspaper, which attacks the Jews, was filed in federal court, Wednesday, by the Dearborn Co. publishers. Hearing was set for April 9. The company declares the city ordinance under which company agents were arrested is unconstitutional. Six men arrested May 15 for selling the Independent here were to come to trial before Police Judge Stevens, Wednesday afternoon, under the ordinance prohibiting the sale of "indecent or scandalous publications." A Jewish assistant police prosecutor brought about their arrest. If Chester K. Gillespie had been appointed to a similar position, as announced some weeks ago, he could have the same thing; for our purposes that the Jewish assistant police prosecutor has done for his people. Since our local race organizations do not seem to be interested in the matter, we are wondering if Councilman Thos. W. Fleming can be interested in it. He certainly ought to be. HOW TO FEED A DOG. Common Sense Tempered With Economy In Gist of Matter. The subject of feeding dogs is one upon which a great deal might be written, but when all is said and done the whole question resolves itself into one thing, namely, common sense tempered by economy. The last qualification is essential, for if an individual entertains any idea of trying to make his kennel pay the item of expenditure is an important one to consider. On the other hand, if common sense is introduced he will recognize that in the first place dogs of different varieties required different feeding and that even in the case of animals of the same breed a great deal must depend upon the lives they are leading. For instance, a dog which is being hard worked should be given more nourishing food than the animal which is getting little in the way of exercise, for if the former is underfed he becomes light and weak, and the latter if overfed is likely to break out in sores through surfeit and certainly will be too fat to be healthy. Speaking generally, dogs in the house are overfed and the same often is the case where there is only one animal kept out of doors, especially if this feeding is not entrusted to some particular member of the family, and that a sensible one. In the case of both of these dogs there is a risk of their getting all the scraps from the table and the kitchen refuse to pick over, with the result that they select only the richest and most unwholesome morsels and suffer accordingly. As a general rule most dogs are better in health, spirits and condition promising talent up including Roy and Lute Moore, Joe Bettis, Bola Leonard, Burton and Mitchell, a hurling sensation from Texas. They will erect a large and improved grandstand. Dave Wyatt, dean of our sport writers, thinks well of the "good old Fifth City" with Jim Taylor as manager. He says: "Cleveland got off to a late start in plans for this and made a busy all at once and made a ten strike by securing Jim Taylor as manager. The wily Jim is busy sucking for capable aids and that is sufficient to assure them of a tea mhat will measure right up to the best. Jim made a southern trip, last year, and has a line on many players that would make a pennant contender of any team. Cleveland has averted a serious mishap, Jim as general, and his work is bound to result in a great and exemplification of the Cleveland people's judgment in se "King" Curry and our White Sox mopped up Walter McCredie's Portland Pacific coast leaguers the other day at Santa Maria, Cal. Our boys slaughtered the Beavers, who could only garner four hits off the mysterious slants of Curry. Work Starts on the New Tate Field. Sykora Ave. and Beyerle Rd. is a busy spot, these days, for work has finally started on the new fine field and grandstand of the Tate Baseball Co. President Geo. J. Tate is an unusually happy man for it means that his long-sought plans and ideas will soon be a living reality and also that his well-earned reputation as a man "who does things" is about to be fulfilled to the numerous stockholders, who knowing his reputation, backed up his efforts. He and his associates consider themselves very fortunate in securing the co-operation and backing of the well-known and successful Central Ave. business man, A. C. Roberson, who, with a big heart and civic pride, after several conferences with Mr. Tate, became enthused over Cleveland being well-represented in the business and bined the company as a very large stockholder and member of the board of directors. SUCCESS IS ASSURED! As the stock-selling company is rapidly drawing to a close President Tate gives praise and credit to his loyal friends and co-workers including Allen H. Dorsey, publicity and sales director, who worked hard and enthusiastically; J. R. DeVoe, business manager, who was always ready with helpful suggestion and Coleman A. Lewis, the hard-working see'y, and treasurer. if fed only once a day, and, according to the ideas of the majority of dog owners, it is preferable that this meal should be given them in the evening. Should the owner consider that two feeds a day are desirable no harm is likely to attend a light breakfast, but it should really be a light and plain one, especially if the animals have a long day's work above. In case of invalid dogs it is, of course, a different matter, and it may be added that when it is possible to do so it is a good plan to let the dogs have a good quarter of an hour's run after feeding before they are shut up in their kennels for the night. As regards quantity it may be mentioned that appetites vary, but as a rule when a dog ceases eating and moves away from his food it is time to take it away. As many dogs are quarrelsome over their food it is as well to have someone always on hand while they are eating, as this precaution not only will check any desire to fight, but will insure the weaker animals getting their share if two of more are fed together. When bones are given there are always chances of a fight and consequently unless each dog is by himself someone should be at hand to keep order. Above all things the corners of the kennel yard and the sleeping benches should be searched before night comes on lest a bone has been hidden away, as its owner will most certainly resent it being appropriated by another animal and a free fight might follow. 6th & 7th BOOKS OF MOSES.

General Fremont Heard of It When Crossing the Rockies—Pilote Legends Record It. The archaeological department of the University of Nevada has nearly completed the exploration of a cave in Nevada, sealed up by nature 3,000 years ago. It contains relics of what is believed to be the ancient race from which the American Indians sprung, a race far older than the Aztecs. Among the things brought to light is the skull declared to be more than 5,000 years old certainly and possibly in existence several hundred thousand years ago. If these surmises are correct, it is older than the Piltdown skull, found in Kent, England. Along with the skull were found many relics of a prehistoric race in a remarkable state of preservation, because they have been hermetically sealed in nature's own preservatives. Scientists all over the country have become interested in the find. The cavern, so far as it has been explored, is about 900 feet long, 400 feet wide and has a height of hundreds of feet in places. It is a magnificent tomb for a vanished race. The first mention of this ancient civilization that is remembered by white men dates back to 1844, when General Fremont led from California a little band of whites across a new trail through the Rockies. He followed the Humboldt river until he came to the shores of what is now called Humboldt range of the mountains, and a mile south of Lovelock, Nev. In the region of the lake he entered the land of the Plute, the chief of whom was Winnemucca. The trail maker were met by the Indian chieftain with open arms. General Fremont and his party were guests of the Flute band for many days. Familiarity with other tribes had taught Fremont a method of communication by means of signs. He asked the Indian chief if he, in his great wisdom, could tell the white man whence came the red man—their origin. The aged chief by signs indicated that the history of the Indians went back to the beginning of the world. It told how his ancestors had driven a whole nation into a huge cavern and sealed them there to perish. When years later Chief Winnemucca had learned the white man's tongue the Plate legends spread among the pioneer miners and finally reached the ears of scientific men. With the coming of education into Nevada in the last twenty-five years Interest quickened with reported fossil discoveries in the beds of the extinct rivers and on the walls of canyons. At Winnemucca's death his daughter Sarah became attached to the families of army officers, and through them the legends became public when they were recounted in a book printed in 1870. Her granddaughter, Sarrah Winnemucca, was educated in a reservation school. Her imagination fired by the legends of her people, she repeated them to her instructors, until finally Prof. J. C. Jones, chief of the archaeological department of the State university, determined to make a search for the lost cave. The stories indicated that he must be somewhere near the Humboldt lake. Sarah Winnemucca picked a spot as near as the legends could guide her, from which point the scientists conducted their search successfully. IT BOOSTS VEGETATION. Aluminum Plays Vital Part in Growth of. Shrubbery. Recent experiments have shown that aluminum and manganese play all important part in the growth of vegetation. Prof. Stoklasa of Frague concludes that these elements possess a special function in the process of assimilation, and his experiments have shown that it is the leaves which contain the greatest quantities of them. Gabriel Bertrand has shown that vegetable production can be increased by adding manganese to the nutrition. All vegetables that contain a certain quantity of manganese always contain aluminum.—World's Advance. Two New Devices for Use With Either Pen or Pencil. Two recent inventions—one by a Texas man and the other by a Chicago-obd fair to make writing an easy task and far less tiring. One is a device for use with any pen or pencil of the writer, and the shape of the device, with a weight placed in the lower portion of it, makes the movement of the writing instrument an easy matter. The other invention is a pen and pencil holder. Slipped over the end of a pen or pencil, this device, which is provided with a sleeve through which the index finger is passed, also makes writing a thing to be enjoyed. TAMED BY JUDGE WITH COOL STARE. Red Man Bad But Couldn't Stand Look in White Man's Eyes. There are precincts in Alaska with a large native population where it is a policy to try a case at times without actually having a session of the court, writes H. S. Farris in Case and Comment. There are a few isolated cases of Alaska natives who have been bluffed into becoming law abiding persons, after the commission of a misdemeanor, when if they had been tried and given a term in jail they would have become confirmed jail birds. A good illustration of this is the case of a native in one of the small interior towns. Now most Alaska Indians are tame—very tame; and this fellow became a bad man unexpectedly and accidentally. He suddenly pointed a rifle at a small group of his fellows, and let out a yell. His act struck terror in the breasts of all the tribe, which was much to his liking. This native knew that the commissioner of his precinct had gone to Seattle, and "going to Seattle" means to the Alaska native, all or any part of the universe outside the boundaries of the territory. Also the "gubment" had been considering the appointment of a deputy marshall for this section of Alaska, but the "gubment" moves slowly, as as yet no deputy had been named. So every day it was customary for this wild native to make a demonstration before one or more members of the little tribe. It amused him, and, besides, it was profitable. He would suddenly appear in the home of one of his neighbors, brandish a knife or a gun, emit one terrifying "whoop—ee," and the field was his. He would then take any article of furniture or anything in the way of provisions that suited his fancy or appetite, after which the village would be normal until the next outbreak. At times they uttered feeble protests. "I think maybe, judge come back pretty quick; maybe you ketchum hell." To which the wild one asserted, "Injun no 'fraid judge, no 'fraid marshal, no 'faid 'skookum house.'" (Jail.) At last the news came to the village that the commissioner had returned and was now at his headquarters, twelve miles down the river. So that night some of the bravest of the brave slipped quietly into his cabin and before the enemy had recovered from his surprise he was tied hand and foot. The following morning he was placed in a sleeping bag, trussed as he was, and sledded to the mining camp, where the commissioner was located. A committee of three natives waited on the commissioner at his office that afternoon and explained the situation. Among other things their spokesman stated that "this Injun talk, no 'fraid judge, no 'fraid marshal, no 'fraid 'skookum house;' that's whatsmatter!" The commissioner went at once to the house where the bad Indian had been taken. The native lay on a caribou skin in the middle of the room, bound hand and foot, while around the room were squatted some fifty members of two neighboring tribes. All awaited the "trial" with much interest and anticipation. The commissioner ordered the native released. One fellow produced a knife, cut the bonds and assisted the bad one to his feet. There were only two ways out. The native must be jailed or bluffed into being good. As the native's family must be provided for, the latter course was adopted. The commissioner stepped close to the bad man, looked him in the eye, and asked: "You no 'fraid judge, no 'fraid marshal, no 'fraid 'skookum house?' All was perfectly quiet. The eyes of the natives were centered on the two men in the middle of the room. For almost a minute the two men looked each other in the eye, but at last the bad man wilted. His eyes fell, and he stood like a small boy caught in some mischief. "Yes me 'fraid,' he said. TELLING SHIP'S SPEED. New Automatic Computation Methods Are Devised. When battleships are maneuvering or steaming ahead in fleet formation, it is essential that each navigator know the speed his vessel is making, in order that it may be kept in its proper position in relation to the others. Recently two new automatic methods for establishing the speed of vessels have been perfected, one in Sweden and the other in this country. The latter system has been adopted in the navy department and installed in the latest United States men-o-war and auxiliary vessels. The plan takes advantage of the uniform slip of propellers at a given speed, and by means of specially designed instruments, the revolutions of the various propulsion shafts are translated into distance traveled through the water. This eliminates all the calculations heretofore required in computing the speed and distance made by a vessel. With every 100 turns of the propulsion shafts the distance is worked out automatically by the instruments and the revolution per minute given every 200 turns, and the speed also estimated. The revolutions both ahead and astern are counted.—Popular Mechanics. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, APRIL 2, 1921 7-TON REPTILE OF PREHISTORIC AGE NATIONAL MUSEUM NOW EXHIBITS MONSTER LIZARD. Skeleton Was Taken From Rock Sand Between 7,000,000 and 10,000,000 years ago, in what is known as the Jurassic age, there lived a group of giant reptiles called dinosaurs, one family of which, the stegosauridae, or plated lizards, is perhaps the most fantastic and curious in all natural history. The most perfect and complete fossilized skeleton of the genus stegosaurus, a smaller branch of this remarkable family group, is on exhibition in the new building of the United States National Museum at Washington, just as it was found and dug out of the sandstone rock. Near at hand is a natural size and very lifelike restoration in papier mache, so weird and monstrous in appearance as to give one the horrors. Back in the very early days of the world this armor plated lizardlike monster dwelt in the western part of the United States in what is now the eastern slope of the Rocky mountains, although at that time the mountains did not exist. He roamed that region, feeding on the tropic grasses and plants, the fossil remains of which are found buried with his skeleton. The specimen mentioned above comes from quarry No. 1, in Fremont county, near Canyon City, Col., where it was found by M. P. Felch in 1885. Brief articles concerning it were written from time to time, but it was not assembled and mounted until two years ago, and never completely described until recently. With the exception of the removal of some of the sandstone which surrounds this valuable specimen, it has been left in the position in which it was discovered, so that the relation of the various bones and skin armor may be seen and studied by scientists. In order that the lower side of the skeleton and the back plates may be seen two mirrors have been placed beneath it in such a manner as to reflect the exact structure and location of the various bones. The undisturbed position of the bones, and the surrounding sandstone, indicates that the monster died in the water or on the bank of the stream, and from some natural cause. It is possible that the carcass floated down the stream, as the arrangement of the different bones and spine plates indicate a gradual washing and tipping over rather than the crushing action of a heavy force. The skeleton is quite complete and lies partly on its side and back, with nearly all the bones in their relative positions, rendering it of infinite value to scientists for study and as a reference type. In life this peculiar reptile of such gigantic proportions must have presented a forbidding appearance; it measures about nineteen feet in length, was evidently over eleven feet in height at the hips, and was covered with a very tough and horny scalelike skin, studded here and there with bony buttons or knobs of armor. Along its back were arranged great sharp edged plates set alternately and projecting upward like the teeth of a huge saw. This odd armor plate extended from the small wedge shaped reptilian head all the way back, and well down the tapering lizardlike tail, which was tipped with four long sharp spines. Its legs were not unlike those of a lizard or other reptile, except that the forelegs were rather short and much weaker than the hind ones, an indication that the great animal could sit up like a kangeroo, and perhaps descended from a bipedal ancestor. From a study of its teeth it has been determined that this prehistoric beast was a plant eater, as is suggested by its habitat. Further investigation of its head, which is so small as to be quite out of proportion to its body, revealed the fact that it had scarcely any brain. Although the body of the stegosaurus is supposed to have weighed more than that of an elephant, the brain of the latter is fifty times as heavy, which fact offers an excuse for the immense amount of defensive armor with which it was equipped, making it practically impregnable as far as its enemies were concerned, provided it had any. Its bones alone weigh nearly a ton, and it has been estimated that in life the stegosaur weighed between seven and ten tons. Some Facts You May Not Know. Among the rare specimens not open to public inspection in the Harvard zoological museum is what is asserted to be the largest frog in the world. It weighs about six pounds, is 27 inches long from tip to toe and of a slaty black color. Its web feet are equal in size to those of a large swan. Only three of its kind have ever reached the United States. Herons, which average only four pounds in weight, often have been known to eat more than three pounds of fish at a meal.

Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay the penalty for five dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, a 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 Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, and they must them what they should and must do for themselves, under it in the courts. Judge Grant's Opinion of the Law. Misled by the foolishly manufactured outey for the passage of the Beaty bill, a few years ago, the Akron Beacon Journal published an editorial to which the editor of The Gazette replied, calling its attention to the fact that the Ohio Civil Rights law was good law and did not need amending. The following letter from Judge Grant, former presiding judge of the Court of Appeals of the Eighth District of Ohio, is self explanatory: Editor The Gazette Cleveland, O. M 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. 8, last, containing the opinion of the Court of Appeals in the Puritan Lunch Co. vs. Leonard H. Forman, decided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for ($500) five hundred dollars was sustained. If the Beacon-Journal had known what was going on in the case, it would not have no occasion for criticism, editorially. THE LAW OF OHIO IS UNDER NO REPROACH, nor our courts and juries, in administering it. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed. "Admired Envied By C. R.

Dietary detectives have said that it may be a combination of moistened milk powder and furniture glue, frozen and flavored, or that it may consist largely of fats worked through a homogenizer into a semblance of cream; of old cream rejuvenated or of any of a number of horrendous mixtures disguised with strong flavoring extracts and subjected to the impartial treatment of Jack Frost. The uninitiated public, from the hardened criminal to the innocent babe, knows it simply as a malleable substance of low temperature which tickles the palate so outrageously that one forgives it the cramps which follow its injudicious consumption. There is a movement on foot to grade ice cream officially in this city and nation as milk is graded. But, obviously, if all the things said to be done in the name of ice cream are true one hight as well try to measure art with a yard stick; unless, of course, these products of the poisoner's art are to be prohibited or labeled "ice cream, second class," or "frozen mucilage, ice cream type," or "assorted fats, frappers."
