MARSHAL FOCH AT-HOWARD
Praises Our World War Troops in France—Receives a Degree—Dr. Emmett J. Scott Scores Big.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—On invitation of Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, this city, the great World War general, Marshal Foch of France, who is on a visit to this country, visited the University, last week Wednesday afternoon, and was honored with the degree of doctor of laws.
Marshal Foch in responding to the greeting of Howard University said: "I find it very easy to express my sentiments of gratitude for the cordial reception accorded me, when I recollect the commendable and indispensable service rendered by the Colored troops upon the soil of France. I knew well that Howard University contributed largely in the war. I knew also that through the love and energy of this great institution of learning as manifested for France, that the soldiers actuated by these impulses gloriously fought in France. Although our green sod now covers the bones of many of your beloved comrades, France shall not forget the magnificent efforts of Howard University, and the costly sacrifice made by the Colored soldiers, the shedding of their blood upon the altar of freedom shall mark an important epoch in the history of human action. I can assure you that the French people are lavishing both love and care upon the tombs of the American soldiers whose bodies are new in France."
The University grounds were beautifully decorated with the tri-colors of France and the stars and stripes. A memorable occasion!

CONGRATULATES HARDING
But Differs from Him on the "Social Equality" Stand, Taken By the President in His Southern Speech.
NEW YORK CITY.—The libera New York weekly, The Nation which has so long been demanding complete equality for the Afro-American, and which, recently published a new chapter in the history of crimes against the black republic of Haiti, now congratulates President / Harding on his courageous speeches in the south. It condemns, however, in an eloquent editorial, the President's reference to "social equality." This unfortunate utterance, in the opinion of The Nation, "played into the hands of all who justify any, discrimination against the Negro." This very reservation, about social equality, is used it points out, to excuse unending discrimination, humiliation and actual physical torture; and adds that even if Mr. Harding had in mind inter-marriage only, and even if he had said so, his words could have done great harm, since the laws against inter-marriage in the south serve only to promote immorality, led in by southern white men: "We may rest assured," says the Nation, "that if racial intermarriage is socially unwise and racially destructive, nature herself will ... control it without men's having to resort to crime to check it."
The editorial quoted appeared in The Nation of Nov. 16.

PROGRESS OF EDUCATION
In the South Among Our People—Some Very Interesting Statistics
Of Oklahoma's 50,570 Afro-American children eighty-seven per cent were enrolled in 1920-21. Eleven hundred and sixty-one of our teachers were employed, and something over $854,000 were spent in building schoolhouses for our children in this same year. West Virginia has appropriated for our educational and elemen-sory institutions $1,200,000. Texas will spend next year $400,000 for our education, and North Carolina, $700,000, of which $36,000 will go for the supervision of our schools. The Rosenwald Fund spent $28,000 for our school-houses last year. This resulted in securing buildings that cost $2,000,000. Of this amount our people paid out of private funds $500,000 and private citizens among local white people paid $250,000. The Rosenwald Fund has set apart $622,000 for its work next year. Nothing is more indicative of progress in our education in the South than the development in recent years of public summer schools for our teachers. For instance, Louisiana has sent practically her whole corps of Afro-American teachers to summer schools provided by the state. Last year 2800 of our teachers attended summer schools in North Carolina. Of these, 1400 improved the grades of their certificates and benefited thereby financially. This year North Carolina made provision for more than 3000 of our teachers in state summer schools.
gained the earnest good will of the fan-flock who called him the hardest working man on the team. Bonner started out as a catcher but was switched to first base in mid-season, where he made good with a bang. In the last forty-two home games he had 214 put-outs, 32 assists and six errors for a grand fielding average of .976. He was at bat 126 times, scored 24 runs and banged out 39 hits for a grand batting average of .323.
Tates and Cooks Battle.
A small-sized crowd saw the Tate Stars and Cook Billiards in a hard-fought. battle at Tate field, Sunday, which the scorer called a tie, but which the Tate management claimed, 6 to 0. The game was booked at the last minute on Saturday. Tackle Bundy intercepted a Cook forward pass and with some great interference by McCreary and Cralhead ran sixy yards for a touchdown. This was disputed and an argument ensued. Fisher and Lewis starred for the Cooks while Cyrus and McCreary did the best work for the Tates.
Great Compliment!
Paid the "Central Body" of Ward 11.
And the Good People Who Made the Great Fight for Better Living Conditions in the Ward — "Bouquets and Brickbats".
The local daily paper statement, the first of the week, as to the Central Political Organization's spending more than any other in the ward 11 councilmanic fight is the biggest indirect compliment that has been tendered the decent colored people city, by any of the local papers since the election. The "Central Body" represents the outraged element, the people who are still determined that the moral atmosphere of the ward must be sterilized. $87.05 was spent; $1,100 received. This amount represents the hard-earned dimes, quarters and dollars, in the main, of mothers, fathers, daughters, sons, all poor, all desirous of improving their status, all anxious that the ward be made as clean as the lives they wish to live. Good folks your hats should be off to the Central Body! Not a cent was contributed by a single individual who did not have on his heart and in his mind the ridding of the ward of the influence of certain vile influences. The Central Body is due particular credit for reason of the fact that its membership is composed of representatives of all of our real uplift bodies, churches, clubs and fraternal organizations in the city. And we call the attention of all the people of Cleveland to the FACT that, though its membership permeates entire Cleveland, it did not endorse but one candidate in the recent election and that its expenditures were made in the promotion of the ONE idea: "The Central Ave. district IS vile. We want cleaner conditions, we believe that Harry C. Smith will represent the cleaner people."
To All Persons Voting in Wavd

The supporters of Hon. Harry C. Smith whose ballots were not properly cast, or were opened and read, or who were not permitted to vote, or who were in any manner shown disjourtesy, or who saw any irregularities at the polls on Nov. 5th. '21, are requested to come to Saunders' Hotel. No. 2366 6. 55th St., between 3 and 6 p., any day, where their complaints will be heard and properly attended to.
Nobody's interests were really advanced other than all of the people of that (ward 11) vicinity. They gave of their scant earnings to promote the Holy Word: "Clearliness is next to Godliness." Their workers worked and faithfully; and gave gave! unstintingly of their time, and as freely of their money as the dull times would permit, and they are not through praying, nor are they unwilling to give and yet give that their children may not be submitted any longer to absolute vice rule. As to the other talks we simply mention that the Republican ward-leaders in ward 11 were 812-750 for organization purposes, and will suggest that the good people of the Central Body were organized of themselves and for Mr. Smith and decency and that the money expended was poor folk's dimes.

The waits of a Fleming before County Prosecutor Stanton, last week Wednesday, and those of a Fleming and "Starlight" before Asst. Police Prosecutor Novarto, on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, MEAN SOMETHING! Why these desperate public efforts to get "a bill of health" at this time? Do you know? Well, they do! And there are others who know, too. Do not be impatient, readers, we will all know before very long. That election on Nov. 8, "21, especially the part of it that took place in ward 11, is going to get an "airing" such as this old town of ours has never known. And this "airing" is going to shake it to its very foundation, too. We are not going to be hurried into anything, either. "Be sure of your foundation and then build" is our motto. We are about ready to build!

A Native White Southerner Outrageously Treated
By Virginia Educators Because of His Efforts to Help Our Elaine, Ark., Victims.
(Special to The Gazette)
JERSEY CITY, N, J.—Prof. R, T. Kerlin of the Virginia Military Institute wrote the following appeal to the governor of Arkansas in behalf of the innocent colored men of Elaine, Ark., "convicted" and sentenced to be executed:
"Before sending these colored men to execution will you not take the matter into your private chamber and give it an hour of earnest consideration as before the Eternal Judge!" so called humane southerners go, they take with them this keeping the colored man down. They seek to take their poison with them all over the world. These infamous hypocrites must be fought. Their sheep-clothing lies must be exposed.
For writing this humane appeal to a southern governor the board of visitors of this institute declared his chair vacant. So often we hear well-meaning men say that the best people of the south are "fair" and "just" toward colored people and that they constitute their "best friends." If both races have friends in the south they should be the heads and managers of the educational institutions, but here in Virginia we have a fine white man being driven out of his position because he dared to plead for justice for colored people. The south as a whole is the worst spot on the globe. Fair-minded white men who advocate justice will not be tolerated in the south. Hypocrisy, lying and sham constitute the assets of those who are straddling the fence in their attempts to get the colored people satisfied with southern treatment. The public and private policy of the south is to "keep the Negro down." There is in the south a boastful spirit of superiority and lordship of the colored people and only those colored people can acquiesce in this policy or who will cowardly keep their mouths shut and not condemn it. The most inferior people on God's earth are the white southerners who are known for their brutality toward colored people and lying propaganda to deceive the world about the colored race. The leaders in this keeping the colored race down are politicians and preachers of the south. If there was a mustard seed's amount of Christian brotherhood among the white ministry of the south the violent conditions now prevailing there could not exist. The young white child born into the world in the south is taught at its home that the Negro is inferior and he must make him feel it. Hence the present generation is worse than the last. We were on a Pennsylvania dining-car when a southern man with a colored girl nursing his children was kept out of the dining-car by this man because he said: "In the south we do not permit Niggers to eat where we eat." The steward of the dining-car insisted that the girl come in but he would not permit her to do so and food was sent out to her. Everywhere these
Harry C. Smith's thanks and voicing his appreciation of their whole-hearted support of his recent candidacy for the council in ward 11. The association announces Sunday school classes for the young, beginning after Thanksgiving. A Nmas collection-box was installed and quite a goodly sum is expected to be recured from it to aid in trimming a tree for the youngsters of the vicinity. The tree meals for the unemployed have been discontinued for the present, and the winter charities of the organization will be directed toward adding the poor in securing clothes, etc., during the winter. These people are real upfitters.

The statement of a local "try-weakly" (appears occasionally) to the effect that President Harding and U. S. Senator Willis sent Councilman Thos. W. Fleming congratulatory letters on his alleged "re-election" is not true and we exhibit it as another evidence of the overburdening load of rottenness existed in ward 11.
It was at Terre Haute, Indiana, a few years ago, that they rounded up a crooked mob of politicians and sent (among the rabble) the mayor, a judge, his son and a number of their satellites to the state penitentiary for long terms. And we remark while passing that some folks recently from Terre Haute were powerfully interested in carrying ward 11, this city, Nov. 8, '21.
Press dispatches say that a Judge C. W. Robinson, of Houston, Texas, in his charge to a new grand jury, ordered an investigation of the Ku Klux Klan in his bailwick. In the meanwhile, speakers high up in the councils of the Maschke, "Fitz," Tom and "Star" aggregation were openly charging the Kluckers with being actively engaged in politics in Cuyanoga county. The judge's politics are Democratic. We don't know

so called humane southerners go, they take with them this keeping the colored man down. They seek to take their poison with them all over the world. These infamous hypocrites must be fought. Their sheep-clothing lies must be exposed.
The south as a whole is Ku Klux, so far as Negroes are concerned when it comes to manhood rights and citizenship privileges. Many white men of justice and fairness are driven out of the south because they speak for the recognition of the colored race as MEN! These abominable wretches live illicitly with the most depraved of colored women and by use of money and other means seek to seduce the best of colored women, and yet in public they work against the race and do all in their power to keep it servile. The south must be driven to change its course. Its present attitude is leading to bloodshed and violence. The administration of laws in the South is a faction and this is why the Ku Klux has such a hold there. They whip and drive out white people of crime which the law in the hands of the unjust rulers would not touch. Law and order have flown in the South to distant realms. Life and liberty are menaced at every turn without any protection. The Negro is considered as a thing that can be killed, cheated, robbed and cursed, and that without any fear of being punished for it. The whole South is one seething hell for Negroes and this hell must be exterminated or those who now maintain it as such will suffer some of the tortures they have been inflicting upon colored people.

We call attention to the fact that the "Turbulent, Tumblebug" has ceased his bombastic braying and in "refutin" along other lines; he is shedding crocodile tears over a statement by somebody marvelling that an eminently respectable person, now deceased, could overlook his physical repuissance long enough to enter into any sort of an alliance with a creature of his calibre.
Last week's report of Sunday school attendance, covering the entire city of Cleveland and its suburbs, gives this interesting information:

Dr. Clarke, his church and Sunday school are due the encouragement of every respectable well thinking citizen he he or she churchgoer or not, in their desire for a cleaner moral atmosphere in the vicinity of this great church and Sunday school.

BUILDING GIVES EMPLOYMENT.
President Harding's unemploy-
ment conference declared that the
problem of the jobless was largely
‘one for each community to handle,
and mayors and other local officials
were urged to take up the matter
at once and extend what relief they
could to the men out of work in
their own localities. Apparently the
advice had its effect, for it is offi-
cially reported that in 27 northeast-
ern states there is a record-break-
ing flood of building contracts, In
one month 8,000 contracts have been
let, with a total valuation of al-
most $250,000,000, The public

HARDING CONSISTENT.
After scrutinizing with microsco-
pic eye the address of President
Harding at Yorktown, in an effort
to find something that could be con-
strued into a partial endorsement of
the idea of a League of Nations, the
New York “World” quotes that por-
tion of the President's address in
which he spoke of “a new call for
co-operation.” Commenting upon
that portion of the address the
“World” says, “Woodrow Wilson
has never gone further than that,”
In its insatiable desire to find some
commendation of the — fatuous
League of Nations scheme, the
“World” is easily pleased, It pro-
fesses to see no difference between
President Harding's desire for co-
operation and President Wilson’s
determination that this nation
should make “the supreme sacri-
fice.” The “World” can see no dis-
tinction between co-operation, which
means the ‘free meeting of free
minds on the one hand, and the
subordination of a nation to a su-
per-state on the other, In answer-
ing questions propounded to him by
members of the Committee on For-
eign Relations of the Senate, Pres-
ident Wilson admitted that under
the provisions of the League of Na-
tlons Covenant, if agreed to by the
United States, this country would
be under a compelling moral obli-
gation to go to war in accordance
with a decision of the constituted
authorities of the league. Any-
thing that would be a compelling
moral obligation upon the United
States would also be, for all practi-
cal purposes, a legal obligation, for
this nation will not repudiate any
obligation which in its own eyes is
binding upon it morally. The atti-
tude of the Republicans in the Sen-
‘ate and of President Harding was
that this country should not be so
bound—that this country should be
free to act upon every international
problem in accordance with its best
judgment as to the merits of the
question when and where it arose.
This nation stands today as it has
always stood, ready to co-operate
with any and every other nation in
the promotion of the world’s wel-
fare, It never has shirked and will
not shirk any responsibility that
comes to-it either under the obliga-
tions of a contract or the obligations
of humanity, But there is a differ-
ence between, fulfilling our obliga-
tions as we see them and fuldiling
them as they may be interpreted by
others. Mr, Harding insisted when
he voted on the league covenent
that the United States must be the
judge of its international undertak-
ings, There is nothing in his speech
at Yorktown that varies from this
declaration of independence in the
slightest degree.

Able to Start Home of Their Own. 3 To
CHICAGO, T—High rents are
Alling the divorce courts of America.
‘They are responsible for thousands
of unhappy stories poured out daily
by young couples who have tried to
tnunch their matrimonial bark in the
homes of their parents—and found
themselves in domestic relations court
with the age-old story starting, “My
mother couldn't stand the way she—"
and “My father gave him a good
scolding for the way he treated mo
and—”
‘Nevor have mothersinlaw and all
the other “in-laws” played such a part
in the stories of matrimonial quarrels
as they do in domestic relations court
today and in most cases {t all resolves
back to an unsuccessful effort to beat
exorbitant rents and cramped housing
conditions by the newlyweds starting
married life with parents or other re-
latives. ji
Mrs, Julia McGuire, motherly buffer
In the path of divorce in the Chicago
domestic relations court and as com-
petent an authority on marriage and
its difficulties as can be found to-day,
gave this as her observation.
Day after day Mrs. McGuire listens
to unhappy wives and husbands. Year
In and year out she has watched the
never-ending procession of estranged
souples file past—broken wives, sulky
wives, mean and misunderstanding
busbands—and just folks who aro
temporarily “in bad” with each other.
“And I want to say that the biggest
reason that I know of for the unhappy
marriages of to-day 1s attempts of
young couples to live with their par
ents,” she sald. “Hundreds of cases
come to me every week of my life
with the same story. It costs too
much to start a home of their own,
they say, and their parents invited
them to come and live with them.
Then came trouble.
“Ot course, in many of these cases
the principals are simply youngsters
who never should have tried marriage
until they had enough money to pay
thelr own way. Many girls and boys,
looking at life through rosy dreams
should be spanked instead of married.
“{ am not blaming the mothers and
fathers, Few of us are diplomats and
wee all think our sons and daughters
perfect and, unfortunately, try to fight
thelr battles.
“There comes the break in these
kind of marriages. At the very start
mothers will talk and fathers will ad-
vise, Brothers and sisters will take
sides. The finish {s too often here
with mo,
“My advice to young people who
want to marry is to wait until they
can start a home of their own.”
To illustrate, Mrs. McGuire heard
four cases waiting for her ministra-
tion. ‘There were 50 in an outer office
and the stream of sad-eyed women
and unhappy men never seemed to
slacken, ‘There were almost as many
deserted wives and husbands with
grievances in the domestic relations
court as there were Inughing, whisper-
ing couples in another office getting
marriage Ucenses.
In the fret cast, the wife was a girl
19 years old. The man was 22 years
old and looked as though he was just
gotting on familiar terms with a safe
ty-razor.
‘Mrs. McGuire looked at the card.
“Now, Gertrude, what 1s the
trouble?” she asked the wife, who
looked like a high school girl about
to tell teacher her algebra troubles.
“T want to be supported,” said the
sir.
“How can I, when I haven't got a
fob,” said tho boy. “I Just got back
from California, I was going to get a
good job this morning, but I had to
come down here.”
“Have you any money,” asked Mrs.
MeGulre, kindly.
“A little, my mother gave me,” he
replied, “I spent most of it for some
new clothes I needed.” +
“Have you and Jack ever lived all
by yourselves?” Mrs, McGuire asked
the young wife.
“No,” she answered. “We lived with
his mother. Now I am living with my
mother,"
“What do you mean we ‘never lived
alone?” ” demanded tho outraged hus-
band. “How about that place on Twen-
tyfourth and Michigan?”
“One week was all and you know
it” snapped the girl "Yes, and I had
to pay the rent.”
Glycerine For Alcohol.
CHICAGO, IIL—A method of mak-
ing flavoring extracts non-alcoholic
was proposed to the American Chem
teal society annual convention recent-
ly by Dr. M. De Grote of the Univer
sity of Pittsburgh. He favored sub-
stituting glycerine for the alcohol in
theso extracts, and said glycerine
made not only a better but a cheaper
extract.

PHILISTINE TRIBES.
Lithium Minerals,
WASHINGTON, D. C——If the casual
reader ran across the words lepidolite
and amblygonite in a theological pa-
per he might mistake them for names
of tribes of the Phillistines; if he
found them in a paper on fossil skel-
etons he might suppose they meant
some kind of armored reptiles that
ranged the swamps of the Cretaceous
period. A companion word, spondu-
mene, though it ends with “mene,”
would mean nothing to him. Lepidol
ite, amblygonite, and spondumene are
the names of the most abundant lith-
tum minerals—minerals that are used
8 sources of the salts of lithium, one
of the chemical elements. Lithium
suggests a minoral woter ef sits used
for the™trcatment of riicunatism,
But that is a different sory. A largo
percentage of the lithtur minerals
mined {s made Into lithtui for use in
storage batteries of a certain type.
Lythium salts and lepldotite are add-
ed to sass “batches” to redues the
viscosity of the melted glass—that is,
to make it flow more freely, Lithium
chloride has been used to some ex-
tent in fireworks and signal lights, to
which it imparts an Intense red color.
Most of the lepidolite mined in the
United States ia taken from a depos.
it near Pala, San Diego county, Calif,
and most of the amblygonite is mined
in South Dakota, where it occurs in
masses weighing hundreds ot pounds.
Practically all of the spodumene pro-
duced in the United States is mined
in the Black Hills in South Dakota,
where tt occurs in immense crystals,
some of them mor than 30 feet long.
Lithium minerals amounting to 6
287 short tons, valued at $115,000,
were produced in the United States
in 1919—more than ten times as much
a was produced in any year befor.

AMAZING ESCAPE.
English Lad Has Close Call When He
1s Sucked Into Water Intake.
LONDON.—Perey Silk, 10 years old,
was playing along the bank ot the
Thames river in Englan recently
when a companion gave him a play-
ful shove and he slipped into the wa-
ter. He struggled and fought to re-
gain the shore but a whirlpool somo
Gistaneo away drew him irresistibly.
Suddenly his head struck against
some.hard object and he was ren-
dered unconscious,
A man saw the boy disappear and
at once concluded that he must have
been ‘sucked into the intake pipe, 200
fect long and three feet in diameter,
through which water 1s drawn for the
cooling apparatus of the electric gen-
erating plant. The water was at once
shut off and employes of the electric
company hurried to the water circu-
lating chamber to recover the child's
boay.
Great was thelr amazement on re
moving the cover of the chamber to
bo greeted by a lusty shout. The boy,
little the worse for the trip through
tho intake pipe, clambered out and
walked away as if such adventures
were mere commonplaces to him,

THE LIGHTEST METAL.
‘tt Is Magnesium, Made in United
States Only Since 1915.
WASHINGTON, D. C.—The lightest
metal now known that remains com-
paratively unaltered under ordinary
atmosperic conditions {s magnesium,
which is only two-thirds as heavy as
aluminum. Magnesium is a beautiful
silvery-white metal that has been
made in the United States only since
1915 and 1s now made at but three
plants. It is known to comparatively
few people and to most of those ehief-
ly as a silvery powder used for mak-
ing flash lights in photography. It
was imported from Germany for this
use for many years. During the world
war large quantities of powdered mag-
nesium were made in United States
for use in star shells designed to it
luminate battle flelds at nicht, as well
‘as in special shells designed to show
m the daytime exactly where the shells
containing it exploded. The white
cloud by day and the brilliant white
pillar of fire by night—both striking
features of the battle fields of the
world war—were produced by the
combustion of magnesium.
‘Magnesium in massive form, as
sticks or rods, is used to deoxidize
other metals in foundries and is a
constituent of alloys, More magnesium
fs now used as a deoxidizer or scay-
enger in metallurgy than for any
other purpose, but its employment in
alloys is increasing and may even-
tually become the largest one, An al-
loy of magnesium and aluminum is
used in making castings for aircraft
engines and parts of airplanes. The
skeleton of the British airship R24,
the first dirigible to cross the At-
antic, 18 an alloy-of aluminum and
magnesinm, and the yacht, Resolute,
the defender of the America’s cup in
the races in July, 1920, as well as the
alternative defender, the Vanite, car
ried gaifs made of this alloy.
‘The demand for metallic magnes-
ium has slagkened since the war, how-
ever, and in 1919 its production in the
United States amounted to 127.405
pounds, valued at $247,202, a decrease
of 85 per cent in quantity and 60 per
cent in value from 1918.

TO TAGE Of
OF PRIMITIVE MAN
With Sheep and Goats—Origin of
American Indians May Be Solved.
NEW YORK—Just how man start-
ed from the cradle of the race in
Asia and migrated over the wide
world, following in the tracks of the
wild beasts, 1s to be one concern of a
great expedition om which the Amert-
ean Museum of Natural history is pre-
Daring to concentrate all its ologies.
‘A stupendous subject ts this distri
bution of life over the globe and so it
‘will be approached from many angles.
The geologist, the expert in mam-
mology, the delver among the human
vestiges of the past, are all to have
part in it when the program ts com-
pleted. It may take ten years to fin-
ish so great a task, but it will be
well worth all the cost if real light is
thrown on one point: the origin of
the aboriginal inhabitants of the
American continent.
‘This expedition will be the out-
growth of the recent quests of Roy C.
Andrews of the museum staff in the
wilds of the Far East. He has seen
parts of China and Mongolia which
no other white man, probably, ever
beheld. And he has already made
much headway in plotting the great
zoological migration from the eastern
to the western hemisphere.
Such is human vanity that we think
ot man as always the leader when
life moves to a new environment. But
according to the reading of Nature's
archives brought back by this young
explorer, the fourfooted races were
the original pioneers, and our remote
ancestors. merely followed them in
their treks, fearing that they lose
these walking meal tickets.
Consider the sheep and the goats,
Both were identified with man before
‘the dawn of civilization, ‘Thelr flesh
and their wool or hafr, and in the case
of the goat the milk, have for untold
centuries made them of great eco
nomle value. One can hardly sepa-
rate the sheep from the goats in con-
sidering them as aids to mankind.
‘Tho Asiatic expedition headed by
Mr, Andrews obtained the skins of
several kinds of goat-antelopes, such
as the goral, the serow and the takin,
which are closely akin to our Rocky
Mountain goats—which are not goats
at all, but goat-antelopes.
He also brought back some remark-
able Asiatic deer, clearly resembling
our own elk, which were called wapt
ti by the American Indians when the
first European settlers reached this
continent,
‘The whole story of mammalian m|
gration may be included in tho circle
of a Big Horn’s horn. ‘The primitive
‘man, low-browed and almost inartieu-
late, seems to have started from his
traditional home on the roof of the
world, moving with the sheep and
the goats who were lured by pastures
new upon the steeps. At last came
the jumping off place of Asia, Wheth-
er we assume that the passage trom
Siberia was made over‘the ice or on
a land bridge which existed at that
time makes little difference, as in
any event it 1s not difficult to account
for the winter crossing of Bering
Strait, which to this day is only 20
miles in width.
Once the sheep and the goats and
the other ‘creatures and that uncouth
biped man had arrived, migration still
continued along the great mountain
chains of the Rockies and the Andes,
according to this hypothesis. We
find certain tribes of the western In-
dians tending thelr flocks and herds
as they did in the days ot Coronado
and making blankets and ponchos.
Crude looms of the Navajos, of the
Kurds, of the old Peruvian and of the
tribes’ of Afghanistan produced tex-
tiles which in many tnstances show
methods that are amazing alike in the
handling of the wools.
‘There are many links to be found
before the chain of evidence of the
common origin of man 1s complete,
and yet they are likely to come to
light as a result of the world-wide
quest now proposed in the name of
science. The anthropologist may be
‘able to show that the North American
Indians, by the clue of their high
cheek bones, are really neo-Mongoli-
ans in deerskins, as has been long
suggested but never proved; the
archaeologist may find in remote
Asia still other means of visualizing
kinship of the Beyptians, the Chinese
and the Aztecs. And yet it seems
that in the realm of zoology alone
there 1s potentlally conclusive proof
of the migration from the Himalayan
plateau to the shores of Europe and

“$12,000 BRIDE” ROMANCE.
CHICAGO.—The romance of Irene
Buysse and Edward James Penny:
packer, which began five years ago
when Mr. Pennypacker followed Miss
Buysse to her home, forced an intro-
duction, gave her $12,000 and married
her, has come a step nearer destruc-
tion.
Mrs. Pennypacker, who sued for dt-
vorce ia Chicago, now has brought
action in Los Angeles to restrain her
husband from disposing of property
here,
And the husband, who resides in
the coast city, has entered a counter
Aivoree suit,
‘The Los Angeles judge before whom
the wife’s restraining plea was taken
has issued an order against Penny-
packer, commanding him to show
cause why he should not be enjoin:
ed from disposing of the property.
‘This property {s real estate in Pasa-
dena. Its value is in tens of thousans
of dollars.
In her divorce bill, Mrs. Penny-
packed charged unfaithfulness and
‘drunkenness. Sho named a “Miss
Buck” of 928 Wilson ave., as Penny:
packer's companion in Philadelphia
and Chicago.
Pennypacker, in his counter sult,
charges his wife with cruelty. The
‘complaint says that on two occasions
she has sued for divorce, naming a
bevy of momen, thus harrassing and
annoying him.
‘Once, in Philadelphia, the complaint
states, she deliberately drove an auto-
mobile in which both were riding in-
to another machine, wrecking them
both, because she was angry at her
husband.

yesterday were investigating an un-

Approaching the messenger boy on
the Ninth st, bridge, the men instract-

restaurant, and to collect $40. In the
meantime, one of the men called Miss
Martha Rankin, cashier of the restau-

of the establishment. He instructed
her to receive the sult case and pay
the charges.
‘This Miss Rankin did, and the mes-
