(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. Their diligent watch over Texas during the wabbling Wilsonian "policy" that characterized

our dealings with Mexico for the last eight years; the great service the men rendered in entering Mexico and teaching them a lesson by sacrificing their lives against treachery and odds to the glory of the United States—all these things should count in their favor and an appreciative government should parade these men and restore them to their places in the army. 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.

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.

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.

was verified when the foster mother
of the ‘young Jack Johnson’ landed|
upon Lieut, Gamblee with her 250

wonder that he tripped and fell into
the net used in playing volley-ball?
The remainder of her staff rushed
upon him. Messed up in the net with
that bunch on top, and having his
clothing slashed with a imife at the

Thorpe found he was not. so strong.

if fed only once a day, and, accordinx
to the Ideas of the majority of dog
owners, it ig 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 aber? In case of in-
valid dogs it is, of course, a different
matter, and it may be added that
when it-is possible to do so it is
good plan to let the dogs have a good
quarter of an hour's run after feed-
ing ‘before they are shut up in their
kennels for the night,
As regards quantity it may be men-
tioned 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 precau-
tion not only will check any desire to
fight, but will insure the weaker ani-
mals 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 1s 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 certain-
ly resent it being appropriated by an-
other animal and a free fight might
follow.

CAVE SEALED BY NATURE OVER
3,000 YEARS AGO.
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.

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.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW
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 71st 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, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than ten dollars, imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both.
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.

WHAT IS ICE CREAN?
Opinions Differ as to Constituents of the Confectioner's Art.
What, pray, is ice cream? 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." And then what is to become of the cone trade, from which, it must be, Coney Island derives it name? For whatever may be said of the rose and its odor, ice cream by any other name, and particularly its real name, does not taste as sweet.

A coal shovel with the handle in the form of a cylindrical reservoir for holding oil is being manufactured for factory use.

The oily coal ignites more quickly than it otherwise would, producing better combustion and less smoke—Popular Mechanics.
