The house was filled with intimate friends of the principals who left that evening on a honeymoon trip which included Detroit, Windsor, Cain, and other points.

SPRINGFIELD, O.—Rev. C. S. Williams, of Indianapolis, Ind., was the orator of the day at a labor day outing given by the uniform rank of our local K. P. Taking as his subject, "The Impending Crisis." Dr. Williams reviewed the history of the Afro-American. Much of his address, however, was devoted to a denunciation of the principles of the ku klux klan. His hearers were warned against being deceived by the klan's professions that it was not "after the colored people" but was after the Catholics and Jews. Particular stress was laid upon the importance of organization among our people to fight any attempt to segregate or deprive them of any of their rights as American citizens. Dr. Williams fully sustained the reputation he made here; last fall, in an address at the high school auditorium in support of the C. R. P. League's fight against the "jim-crow" Fulton school. be getting stronger. After a visit to the Governor by Dr. J. E. Furry, president of the City Commission, and Commissioner John Frock, a proclamation was issued by Press. Furry, Sunday morning, in which it was stated that owing to the strained relations which might easily result in racial and religious strife, all good citizens are urged to avoid anything that might cause trouble. There is no doubt of the intensity of the feeling against the klan among the Catholics and our people and it will not take much to precipitate a riot such as has occurred in other places. As was previously stated the Fulton school was opened, last Friday morning, for registration of pupils with principal and teachers, all white. A number of our children reported at the school but only two white pupils appeared and it is reported that they were sent away. The majority of our children applied at other buildings, as Incidents and rumors tend to support the charges that have been made that some of our preachers are working with the klan in its efforts to get control in this city. In addition to new reports of klan donations to "different preachers, and coming from klan sources, there appeared in the "Fiery Cross" (klan organ) the statement that the "intelligent colored people were not against the klan," and that in their campaign of education "members of the klan would appear in the pulpits of colored churches." As the time nears for the klan distict meeting, which is to be held at the fair grounds with a parade on the evening of Sept. 8th, the apprehension of trouble seems to ATTENTION VETERANS! If you served ninety days or more in the Spanish-American War, the Chinese Relief Expedition, or in the Philippines prior to July 4, 1902, you will be interested to know Congress has passed a Pension Law of vital interest to you. This law contains two provisions: 1st, it allows pensions, to all ex-soldiers, sailors and marines with the above service record who were honorably discharged and who are now over sixty-two years of age; 2nd, it allows pension to those who are at present materially disabled from earning their living by manual labor from disease, if the disability be not the result of their own misconduct. Such disability must be permanent but need not be total. It need not be the result of military service. THE SOLDIER DOES NOT HAVE TO BE SIXTY-TWO YEARS OLD TO CLAIM ON DISABILITY. The amount of pension depends upon the degree of disability and ranges from $12 to $30 per month. Widows of veterans are also allowed pensions. If you wish advice about this law write M. E. Buchanan, Route 1, Trevillians, Virginia. Prompt action is desirable, as a pension if allowed begins from the filing of the claim. The Act of September 1st, 1922, enlarges the provisions of the Act of June 5th, 1920. This affects many soldiers who have been rejected, increases the pension of widows and children under 16 years of age and other important matters effecting veterans and widows. Soldiers rejected on medical grounds should write to me. Please enclose stamp for reply. AFRO-AMERICANS ATTENTION!

It is expected that his intentions will be disclosed when school opens; Tuesday, and adjustments will then be made. The McCord-klan candidates were revised. last. week, when L. R.

Cleveland, O., Aug. 29th, '23 2127 E. 961st St. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—This is to advise my friends throughout the state of Ohio of my withdrawal from the vice-presidency of the Anchor Life Insurance Company. At the same time assuring them that, notwithstanding my withdrawal from active participation in the conduct of the business of the company, I consider their investment in the capital stock of the Company as perfectly sound, as all funds of the Company, are handled under the strict supervision of the Superintendent of Insurance for the State of Ohio, and are fully safeguarded by that department. My withdrawal is purely for the best interest of the Company and in no way reflects any doubt of its future success as an Insurance Company of the first grade if properly conducted by its officers. My resignation was effective, Sept. 1st, 1923. Revs. J. R. Yewell. C. C. Ailer and J. W. Ribbons motored to Los Angeles to attend a National Baptist convention in session there, this week.

SATURDAY, SEPT. 8, 1923 ‘Those Negro preachers in Spring- field who are “flirting” with local ku kluxers ought to be made to leave that city by our people. Their congregations should refuse to hear ‘or support them. They are traite ors and a disgrace to the race! a ‘The statement that the late Pres- ident Harding had in mind the ap- pointment of Charles Cottrill as register of the U. S. treasury “at an early date” is not true. This he made perfectly clear to the writer when In conference with him on June 13, 1921, and again on May 29, 1923. ttl ‘The next Congress will have a much smaller Republican majority than the last. It, too, will refuse to pass the Dyer or any other fed- eral anti-lynching bill, or any Dill to wipe out the ku Klux klan or- ganization, and it is foolish for any of us to affect to believesthat it will: do otherwise. . While members of the ku klux Klan were being “beaten up” in ‘New Jersey, last week, members of that lawless organization down in Georgia were beating “Negroes” against whom no charges were made. “Gettun evun,” said the “Georgah crackabs.” What a pity they did not have those Negro-min- Ister-allies of the Springfield, Ohio, kluxers! et What Italy is doing to the “League of Notions” is certainly “@ plenty.” Incidentally, it is also putting a terrific crimp in what ExGoy. James M. Cox and Ex-U. 8. Supreme Court Justice J. H. Clarke hoped to make the Democratic is- sue in the Presidential campaign, next year. Also, the people of this country are being given a splendid ‘opportunity to see just how great ‘@ service has been rendered them by a Republican U. S. senate and President Harding by keeping the United States of America out of the “Plague of Nations.” We quite agree with Editor An- drews of the Baltimore Herald- Commonwealth: It is now too late (and has been ever since the late President Harding's promise) to appoint any other than an all Afro- American personel for that Tus- kegee U. S. hospital for Afro-Amer- ican veterans. Director Hines, rep- Tesenting President Coolidge can- not enter into any compromise of the matter with citizens (white) of Alabama, representing as they do the ku klux klan of that state, without consequent tremendous loss of. prestige with the great mass of law-abiding and fair-minded Amer- fean citizens without regard to race or class. i ARTHUR T. ABBOTT. We greatly regret to announce the resignation of Arthur T. Abbott as vice-president of the Anchor Life Insurance Company of this city. Mr. Abbott is one of our oldest and ‘Dest citizens, a man whose know!- edge of the insurance business was gained as a result of nearly if not quite forty years’ practical exper'- ence im all branches of the same with one of the largest insurance companies (white) in this part of the country. Even more do we re- gret his severance of business con- nection with that young and very promising race enterprise / be- cause there are very few men of our group that are as well equip- per in the insurance business and stand as high in their communities as Arthur T. Abbott does in this. ‘We sincerely trust, 2s also does Mr. Apbott, that the Anchor Life Insur- ence Gompany will continue to eo forward and experience no ill ef- fects as a result of his severing his business connection with it. il; — THE N, A. A. ©. P, AND LYNCH- MURDER. In its recent report, on the Iynch- ing of this country, for the first six months of this year, The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People says: “The omy thing that will put a stop to lynchings is the enactment into law of legislation that will pun- ish members of mobs, county and state officials, and communities that cause and permit this crime.” Quite right, and the legislation must be that of the several State As- semblies, says the U. §. Supreme Court, and not that of the U. s. Congress which has not the power to do so, says the same august body, the court of the last resort and the Judicial head in this country. Whether there pave been three or “4,000 known Iynchings in the Uni- ted States and scarcely any convic- tions of members of the mobs and those responsible for this crime” oes not alter in the least the U. S. Supreme Court’s decision and ruling that the several State Assemblies only have the power to legislate against lynch-murder and mob vio- lence, and it is positively “silly” for the N. A. A. ©. P. or any other or- ganization, or person, to say other- wise. It is not a question as to whether “we” or anyone else “rec- ognize ‘states rights’ in this mat- ter,” or any other for that matter, but one of LAW, pure and simple; and law that has been passed upon by the court of the last resort, the highest legal tribunal in the land. Therefore, it is not “surprising that newspapers (and others) continue to argue against Congress legisla- tion against lynching and mob vio- Ience” when the U. S. Supreme Court has decided that it cannot en- act a constitutional anti-iynching or mob violence law. On the contrary it is “silly” for the N. A. A. C. P. or any other organization, to con- tinue to try to lead an effort to ac- complish the impossible. ‘The enactment of anti-lynch-mur- der laws by a number of states in recent years, one at least a border southern state, {6 convineing proof that it would be far better, more sensible and productive of infinitely greater results for the N. A. A. C. P., and associate organizations, to direct their combined effort to the State Assemblies of the country in- stead of wasting much valuable time, effort and money bombarding Congress for something it cannot afford, and even if it could it will not. For many years, Ohio was the only state in the Union that had an effective mob violence or anti-lynch- ing law but it is different now. we are greatly pleased to say. The number of such (state)laws grows slowly but surely each year and, too, In the face of the foolish effort of the N. A. A. C, P. to bull-doze the U. 8. Congress into doing something it cannot do, according to the U. S. Supreme Court, the deciding power in the matter. Let the N. A. A. C. P. follow the advice, given it from time to time by the editor of The Gazette ever since it began its futile effort to secure the enactment of a federal anti-lynching “law,” and di- rect its effort to the State Assem- blies of the country and thus help to do the effective work against the mob and lynch-murder going for- ward so encouragingly. The know!- edge of the foregoing tacts, more than twenty-seven years ago, was: what caused us to introduce in the Ohio Assembly and secure the en- actment of Ohio's Anti-Lynching or Mob violence law.

Everything to be Sold at REDUCED PRICES! ‘FOLLOW ME” SET A PACE HARD TO FOLLOW George White, of “The Scandals” fame, is talking about producing a musical comedy with Atro-Amer- jean actors, but George is a little late, as I. M. Weingarden has beat him to it in staging “Follow Me,” which opens a week's engagement at the popular Globe Theater on Monday night. And when we say staging we mean every word of 1: for “Follow Me” is a wealth of beautiful scenery, rich plush drapes, the equal of any of the big top ‘price musical shows.” It is in two acts and 16 scenes. The mu- sie is of that yariety which keeps one moving the fect and craving for more, and the song numbers have been entrusted to artists. who know exactly how to render them, and these are backed by a singing nd dancing chorus of girls and ‘boys, drilled to perfection. Billy Higgins and Clifford Ross are the principal comedians, and they will remind you of the famous team of Williams and Walker. Both of these artists have a “'sin- gle” spot on the program and. in each instance they show just. why they have reached stardom, There are 24 numbers done during the Performance, aside from several specialties, including two by Julian Costello, the classic dancer. ‘These ‘numbers are productive of splendid results and are rendered by Valada Snow, Julia Moody, Coleman and Toy ‘Titus, clever Edna. Taylor, Sallie Gates, Sylvia Mitchell, Wil: lam Gunn, Ed Cadwell, Follow Me Four, a sensational dancing turn by Cornell and Baytie, and others, There is a pony ballet, aside from the regular chorus. “Follow Me” introduces a star in the person of Valada Snow, a dashing young. per- former whose versatility Is remark- able. Her work is one of the out- standing features of the produc- tion, It is a fast working, perfectly balanced performance. "The cos- tuming is the finest and on a par with’ any Broadway success. Ev- erything along the staging line has been done that long experience and money could accomplish, ‘The book is by Max Michaels and the music by James Vaughn. “Follow Me" Will not only entertain you, it will| Sean Soe j Wills’ Manager in Court.

RACE PREJUDICE! “I am convinced myself that there is no more evil thing in this present world, than race prejudice; none at all! “I write deliberately—it is the worst single thing in tife now.

IS IT OF ANY USE TO CON- TEND FOR BIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of sub- mitting to discrimination on the claim that their race “al- ways will be discriminated against.” The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimina- tion, and are winning even so: cial rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than sub- mit. The race that says it's of no ‘use to resist, dewns itself and the world then will say, “Negroes are not “worthy of qqual rights; they are by na ture without self-respect and have no ‘guts.’” The world re- spects only those who resent and resist proseriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abo- Utionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindieate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race discrimination may continue.

THERE WAS A HOT FIGHT In That Recent Atlantic City Conference Forced By Radicals ‘Who Wanted to Urge Our Voters to Leave the Republican Party—It Was a Battle Royal But They Lost— The Conference’s Program Good. WONDERFUL PROGRESS! e Of The National Benefit Life Insurance Company OFFICERED AND CONDUCTED BY MEMBERS OF THE RACE. Twenty-five Annual Dividends for Its 125,000 Policy- Holders—Twenty Million Dollars of Insurance— Assets $750,000—Reserve Fund $461,592. (Special to The Gazetic.) Jersey City, N. J.—wNever before in this or in any other country have serious minded men and wom- en of the race met to discuss and plan ways whereby our people of this country might come into thelr own on equality with all other groups. Many came to this meet- ing in the most rebellious spirit. Men and women with grievances ame here and poured out those grievances. What the race should do as a voting group was the one great problem before all. Eighteen states were represented. Only one newspaper. This was a mistake. ‘The Associated Press gave the con- ference the front page in the great dailies. Men spoke their mind and allowed the world to know that they were men and would accept nothing less than a MAN would. ‘Two things were evident: Our vo- ters were displeased with the pres- ent attitude of the Republican party, and setond: they had no gonfidence in the Democratic. party. The majority of the conference, for a time, wanted to throw off ali party alliance. Some praised the Democratic party and its treatment as shown by Tammany Hall in New York. The real battle of the gonference raged for twenty-four hours within the committee on platform. Two ‘reports ultimately ame before the conference. The majority report was signed by 14 per- sons and the minority, by one. The majority report recommended al- Hance to no party (independence) ‘but the minority recommended al- ance to the Republican party and fight out our troubles within that party. The majority. report re- fused to make any reference to the Tuskegee U. 8. Veterans Hospital and the crisis it had brought to the front; neither did it ask for the passage of the Dyer Anti- Lynching Dill. The minority re- port insisted upon requesting the President to make the hospital “Negro” in all of its parts or raze it; it called for the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill and also passage of a measure that would enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. When the majority had presented its report Washington, D. C., Aug. 24, 1923 —An intensive campaign for new Dusiness in Ohfo is to be made by ‘The National Benefit Lite Insurance Company of Washington, D. C., and to further this plan the stockholders, at @ special meeting on August 11, uthorized an increase in jhe capital stock. from $100,000 to $250,000. It is their aim to keep the company the greatest financial organization ‘created, owned, and managed by col- ored men in the interest of the race. ‘Twenty-five years ago the company ‘Was organized as the National Bene- fit Association by Mr. H. W. Ruther- ford, a young married colored man, who came to the National Capitol from Lynchburg, Virginia. His ¢otal cash capital was $6, but he was pos- sessed with untiring energy and faith. He gathered around himself @ few loyal supporters and_ then hustled out after business. His of- five furniture consisted of a table anda chair. His salary was $35 the month and he had to earn it by sell- ing policies, and collecting _pre- miums, which he did by pedalling his way around the city on an old dieycle. But from that tiny beginning, by means of hard steady work, intelli- gent organization, and high-grade personnel, the National Benefit Lite Insurance Company, officered and conducted entirely by colored people and developed among men and wom- en of the race, has grown into the large and commanding position which it occupies today, with an un- broken record of twenty-five annual dividends paid to stockholders, with 125,000 benefited policy holders, and $20,000,000 of insurance in force. Its ‘assets are $750,000, including several valuable pieces of real es- tate in the District of Columbia and four states; a reserve fund of $461,- 592, a surplus of $100,00 and it has on deposit $236,100 for the protec- tion of policy holders. To carry on its present business the company has a force of 1,200 employes, includ- ing 110 district managers and assist- ants, 40 local agents and 950 field agents. Its hope of becoming an Old Line Logal Reserve Company with a paid up capital of $100,000.00 material- zed in 1918 when its name was of- ficially changed to The National Benefit Life Insurance Company. It operates in some states that no oth- er colored company has yet succeed- ed in entering. On more than one oveasion it has successfully met com- and defended it upon the floor, the minority presented its and defend- ed it, and before the minority had finished there was the spirit which clearly manifested {tself—thati the minority report met the exigencies of the time. Concessions were made and the committee repaired to its room and brought in a re- port in which all sides agreed. The minority won a decisive victory when it forced the conference to declare itself Republican and also to include the vital tssues omitted by the majority. Upon this report, sent out to the world, all agreed This means that northern states as Well as central and western states, whose Afro-American voters vote, will not be satisfied with the status quo of the Republican party. This conference. by organizing the states, will force these states to treat squarely with our voters, giv- ing them a share in ALL things. The senators and _ representatives, from these states, must defend on the floors of Congress the good name and interests of our voters. Any senator or representative hos- Gib to abaolste saeallty of sit vo- rs is marked for our opposition. The senators from these states must intercede with the federal government and see that our vo- ters be rewarded by the govern- ment in proportion to their voting strength. AS a result of the bi- partisan agreement, entered into by certain senators and represen- tatives, the Republican party has adopted the attitude of the South in its dealing with our voters.

It is the only company of its kind incorporated un- der laws enacted by U. S. Congress for the District of Columbia. With its present plant and plan, every- thing seems ripe for it to become a veritable insurance gateway of the race. For whatever may eventually bring one within its protecting folds the National Benefit Life Insurance Company, will not disappoint them. This is the basis upon which the business is sought. It is realized that the company has come to stay longer than any of them; possessed of a perpetual charter, (like the brook), goes on forever. It is an educational factor of the highest val- pe in business and is destined to ax mightier and mightier in the un- folding of time with the increase of its business, policy holders and assets. ‘The steady growth of the- Na tional Benefit Life Insurance Com- pany is a testimonial to the faith in- dustry and loyalty of the employees, who entered into the work with an enthusiasm which knew no bounds. But the simple truth is that the man who founded this great and suc- cesstul business organization for the protection and benefit of the Negro race, was dealing with gigantic forees of life and self-deyelopment for a whole people. Mr. Rutherford, fol- lowing some’ inner guiding instinct of faith, did not at the beginning realize himself the enormous pow- er which he was calling into action —the power generated by combining the ‘credit and earnings of a great number for the protection of each individual in time of emergency or need. In a word, co-operation on a great scale with systematic organiza- tion and faithful attention to every detail, ‘The National Benefit Life Insur- ance Company is now doing busi- ness in the District of Columbia and in the states of New Jersey, Rhode Island, Maryland, Kentucky, Virginia, Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and within a short time will open offices and establish an administration force in the states of Tennessee, Kansas, Arkansas, Alabama, North Carolina and Missouri.

English | op Editor Gazette, Dear Sir.—Having heard Congressman Dyer’s advocacy lof the remedial measures of his bill fn Congress for the prevention of Iynehings within the states, T was moved to a careful search of the au- thorities to find a basis of consti- tutionality for its enactment and ef- fective enforcement. With sincere ‘appreciation for the unusual zeal and real enthusiasm that Mr. Dyer puts Into his efforts for the enactment of such a bill and not doubting his sin- cerity in the least, I can not find any precedent by. which the measure would be held constitutional by the U. 8. Supreme court should it be passed. The greatest good that can be hoped for is the molding of public sentiment against lynching, I fear that this benevolent effect would be more than counteracted by an ad- verse decision by the Supreme court, holding the same to be unconstitu- tional. Thus, re-assuring the per- petrators of this national evil fur- ther immunity from prosecution and encouraging a stronger activity in the continued commission of these erimes. It is a well established fact, so held by the U, 8. Supreme court from time to time, that the police power of a state cannot be taken away from it and exercised by the federal government, save in so far as it may have been delegated to it by the citizens of the several states of the union, Police power is declared to be that power inherent with the existence of the state to regulate by governmental function the peace, health, safety, and morality of its citizens. The congress of the U. 8. has no genoral police powers opera- tive over the several states of the union. Stone vs, Miss., 101 U. 8. 814, Boyd vs. Ala, 94 U, S., 645. In respect to the provision in the Fourteenth amendment to the U. 8. Constitution for appropriate legisla- tion by congress for its enforcement, and on which Mr. Dyer bases consti tutional foundation for his bill, the U. 8. Supreme court has declared that provision to give congress a cor- rective power of legislation over the states rather than creative or legis- lative. “In other words, when a state shall have passed a law, upon its face, discriminating between citizens on account of color, race, ete., the congress may enact laws prohibitive to the operation of same. In the Civil Rights bill, passed by congress in 1875, by virture of the power given it by the Fourteenth Amendment, for the purpose of pro- hibiting discrimination against Col- ored people within the states by pub- lic places of accommodation, such as hotels, theaters, etc., and public con- veyances over land and water, the Supreme court has held such legisla- tlon by congress to be clearly uncon- stitutional and void; that the con- gress has no legislative authority to enact such laws.

USE UP GOLD TAILINGS South Africa About 25,000,000 tons of gold ore ts hoisted out of the mines of the Wit watersrand in south Africa every year, and the disposal of the tailings, as the gefuse rock is called after it has been crushed to a sand and the gold extracted by the cyanide of pot- assium process constitutes one of the biggest problems in the operation of some of the mines. As a general thing gold mines are Jocated in a mountainous country, and the tailings can be dumped in almost any quantity down a mountain side, but in the Witwatersrand the coun try is flat and special methods must be used to prevent the mine and mill from being buried. In the type of tall- ings conveyor and stacker most con monly used, an inclined steel struc- ture, supported on steel towers, cat ries a cableway equipped with buck- ets with which the tailings are car ried and dumped in a pile at some distance from the mill, The pile even- tually grows to enormous size, and most of the steel structure is buried and lost. These tailing piles are a striking feature of the Witwatersrand, but ‘8 great nuisance as well, as in the dry season the wind carries the sand over the whole countryside, unless the pile covered with some such substance as salt, which absorbs enough moisture to prevent the material from being blown away. In some cases the prob- Jem is solved by running the talings back Into worked out portions of the mine.—Popular Mechanics. DEVICE TO MEASURE GEARS Patent is Granted for New and Use. ful Implement.

Artificial Limbs are made of basswood or willow, supplemented to some extent with leather. ‘The lumber for them is carefully selected and the first step in the mal ing of a false leg is to cut from the raw material a block eight inches square and of the requisite length. ‘Through it a hole is bored lengthwise with a large auger, and then the block is put aside in a dry place and at lowed to season, It ought to season for three years. It is then carved In imitation of a real leg, sandpapered to smoothness, hollowed ont ko as to convert it into ‘4 mere sicll, and rendered waterproot by a coating of a special kind of varnish. It may be covered with kid, but methods of manufacture vary. ‘The leg 4s made hollow for the sake of lightness, and also to provide roora for the introduetion of a strong spiral spring and other elements of the me: chanism that is to render the limb a useful and comfortable counterfeit of areal one, An artificial leg of up to date pattern fs an ingentus piece of apparatus and there is many a man today who wears one without betray: Ing the fact to the casual observer. Of course if the natural limb bas heen cut off high up the artificial one must be in two parts, connected by a knee joint. If one must lose a portion ‘of one’s ambulatory mu chinery the most desirable place tor the amputation is between the knee and the ankle, Under such cireum- stances a false member may enable one to walk without limping, or one may even tango satisfactorily, but lors of part of the foot or of the whole foot at the ankle joint means that ons must go halting through life, ‘The foot of the artificial leg is In fiself an exceedingly clever counter felt, Its core is part of the same piece of wood that makes the body of the leg, Enveloping this core is rubber, vileanized on in a series of thin Inyers, the result being to give the foot a lively springiness, render ing it comfortable for walking and helping to give the wearer a natural "galt An artificial arm fs of similar con- ‘struction, with a wooden core for che Band, whieh ts of vuleanized ruby ber, But as a fubstitute for the “natural limb it Is a poor thing com pared to a fslae leg.

Under the Inw any person who hes lost a leg or an arm, a foot or a hand in the service of the United States Government is entitled to an arti ficial member every three years. Th is a very liberal allowance, becouse a false leg if not abused ought to last eight years. Furthermore the right is not restrieted to soldiers and sailors; elvilian employes of Uric Sam can enjoy it likewise, Few artificial arms arc asked fo: by those entitled to them, not mor than one arm, indeed, for every 109 legs. Pensioners and others who hav« lost such members prefer as a rule to accept a money equivalent instead ‘They are at Uberty under the law to draw $50 every three years in lieu of an arm, or if'a lex be in question the cash commutation allowed is $75 ‘There are in this country forty odd manufacturers of artificial mbs, and their products differ somewhat in style and construction. Congress has declared that the maimed veteran is at lberty to choose his own make of leg or arm. To be fitted with it he may journey to any elty in the United States where the false member can be purchased and the Government will pay his traveling expenses, in cluding Pullman car accommodations. It will not pay for his meals en- route, a ruling on the part of Unele Sam that has elicited a good deal of grumbling. But a crippled old soldier residing in San Francisco may, if he chooses, buy a false lex in Boston, traveling clear across the continent and back at the Government's ox- pense. Some veterans of the civil war ‘once in three years attend the G. A. R. reunions without a cent’s cost to | themselves for travel, electing as is their privilege to purchase incidentally a limb in the city where the reunion Js to be held, Such false legs and arms as can now be bought are of course very modern inventions. It may be taken for granted, however, that artificial substitutes forslost limbs date back to a remote antiquity. Dr. Ales Herdlicka of the Smithsonian institu- tlon recently dug up in Peru a false foot of wood, apparently prehistoric, which was a mere block with a socket, evidently intended to be fastened to the ankle of a person whose foot had deen amputated. ‘Famous in history fs the fron hand of Goetz yon Berlichingen, a knight of medieval Nuremberg; and there was another nobleman of the same epoch who had a iron foot weighing ten pounds, with which, being an frascible person, he could kick so ward that his servante sole the foot asd it into the Rhine—N.
