RACE COUNTRY PARTY
DR. KELLY MILLER GIVES OUT PLANS FOR A RACE CONFERENCE
VOL. XXIX.
PITTSBURGH, Pa., March 23.—Nearly 2,000 persons gathered in Soldiers' Memorial hall Sunday afternoon to hear Dr. Kelly Miller, Dean of College of Arts of Howard University, Washington, D. C., deliver an address regarding plans for a race conference or Sanhedrin at which representatives from the various existing organizations among Negroes in this country can discuss problems affecting the race in general for the purpose of agreeing on some definite program of procedure for the betterment of racial conditions in this country. The meeting was held under the auspices of the Pittsburgh Urban League. Dr. Miller pointed out that there is a great diversity of opinion as to the best methods to pursue and thus it is necessary for the American Negroes to take steps to present a united front which will of necessity enable the race to command a fuller consideration of its rights and opportunities.
Dr. Miller said that he could see no real reason that would inspire patriotism on the part of the Negro for this country although there is ample room and reason for loyalty and the Negro has demonstrated his loyalty on all occasions. He declared that there is a marked distinction between patriotism and loyalty. Patriotism is inspired by knowledge that it is possible to become a congressman, a senator, a justice of the Supreme Court, a President. He then asked if it were possible for a Negro to become such in this country. The youth must be taught high ideals and racial consciousness in order to improve his status in the estimation of the white peoples of America.
In speaking about the monument to the Mammies of the South, Dr. Miller said that he was in favor of the monument, but not now. It is too soon after the conflict. It recalls unpleasant conditions; suggests master and slave; superiority and inferiority. But a few centuries from now when the stigma of the horrible conflict shall have been forgotten, then a monument should be built towering above those of Lincoln and Washington as a fitting tribute to this "Nature-Woman," unlettered who could take the infant child of another race on one knee and the infant of her own flesh and blood on the other and out of the Christlike fullness of heart pacify both.
After enumerating the various organizations among Negroes in this country and pointing out the specific good they had accomplished for the betterment of the race and paying a glowing tribute to the Jewish race for its remarkable accomplishments said that the idea of the Sanhedrin was borrowed from the Jews. Jewish peoples have differences of opinion just as Negroes on all questions, but they agree on some definite program for the general betterment of the Jewish race as a whole. This is what the proposed Sanhedrin among Negroes is intended to do for the Negro.
He said his plans were to call on the various existing organizations to send a representative probably to Washington some time in the near future to form a committee that would work out definite plans for the coming conference and then the committee would issue the call.

importance our newspapers display in the dissemination of information vital to our people and the general tendency of the members of the race to reply upon our newspapers for guidance. They make it possible for an idea of one person to become the common property of all. The newspaper is our best medium for broadcasting ideas." declared Attorney Frank R. Steward, master of ceremonies, in introducing Attorney R. L. Vann, editor of the Pittsburgh Courier, who introduced Dr. Miller. The music for the occasion was furnished by a sixty-five-piece K. of P. band under the leadership of Prof. Harry C. Waters and the Blue Ribbon Triangle Quartet, composed of ladies.
Supreme Court Reversed itself in Arkansas Case, Says New York Lawyer
Negro Lawyer in Forefront of Victorious Four Year Battle.
New York lawyers have been commenting on the far-reaching results of the victory by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in the Arkansas cases, in which the United States Supreme Court reversed the decision of the lower court which had condemned five colored farmers to death.
Walter Nelles, a prominent New York lawyer, writing in the Law and Freedom Bulletin, issued by the American Civil Liberties Union, states that the Supreme Court not only reversed a lower court in the Arkansas case, but hails the Arkansas decision as the one of the most far-reaching in regard to the principle of habeas corpus that the Supreme Court has ever made.
Contrary to the decision in the Leo Frank case, the Supreme Court has held in the Arkansas cases that despite legal forms, if a mob has dominated a court room, a fair trial has not been held. As Mr. Louis Marshall, counsel for Leo Frank, stated to the N. A. A. C. P.:
"The stone that the builders rejected has now become the chief of the corner. Due process of law now means, not merely a right to be heard before a court, but that it must be before a court that is not paralyzed by mob domination."
The case is held especially important for Negro citizens in that it makes possible contest of any case in which it can be shown that a mob influenced decision.
The N. A. A. C. P. paid tribute to Sciplo A. Jones, the colored lawyer of Little Rock, who has had charge and was in the forefront of the four-year legal battle culminating in the victory before the Supreme Court. This case is regarded by the N. A. A. C. P. as the most important legal battle fought, as it was the most costly, nearly $15,000 being expended to obtain the action before the Supreme Court.
It is now thought probable that the condemned men will never suffer the death' sentence which has three times been averted.

N. A. A. C. P. Participates in Conference of Civil Rights Bodies
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was represented at an all-race conference held in New York City on March 23 and 24, and participated in by the following organizations: The African Blood Brotherhood, the Friends of Negro Freedom, the International Uplift League, the National Equal Rights League and the National Race Congress.
At this conference Negro leaders met, discussed plans for working in harmony and issued and signed a concordat calling for common support by all organizations of the various undertakings for the uplift and betterment of the Negro in America.
It is planned to enroll in the all-race movement organizations of every sort, including religious, fraternal, social, educational, business and labor, and the press.
Speaking for the N. A. A. C. P. James Weldon Johnson said in part: "We can do two things here. We can exchange ideas, or we can attempt to accomplish something. Both things are good. We must bear in mind, however, that in the exchange of ideas there is no limit, but in accomplishment we are confronted by conditions. "As to actual accomplishments, what can this conference do? The signing of a concordat is one thing. We have very often been handicapped among colored people themselves by the reports that there was antagonism between the leaders. This is not so true as has been noised about. If we ever feel that the Negro is going to be one unified mass, however, we are bound to be disappointed, because he is a human being even before he is a Negro, and we are going to have human differences. Nevertheless, the opinion that a great amount of discord exists between the leaders has done us a great deal of harm. This conference can accomplish much by sending out to the Negroes of the
United States the inspiring news that the leaders have gotten together, allowing for differences of opinion, and are working for a common end." The signers of the concordat calling for harmony and co-operation in the race, are as follows: For the African Blood Brotherhood, W. A. Domingo; for the Friends of Negro Freedom, George S. Schuyler; for the International Uplift League, D. N. E. Campbell; for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, James Weldon Johnson; for the National Equal Rights League, William Monroe Trotter; for the National Race Congress, Kelly Miller.
"Liza" and "Shuffle Along" Benefit Nets $900 for N. A. A. C. P.
A benefit performance given for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in the Lafayette theater, New York City, March 27, by the full cast of the musical revue, "Liza," assisted by members of the cast of "Shuffle Along," company No. 3, crowded the house so that every seat was taken and late comers had to stand. Incomplete returns snow that the performance netted the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People about $900. Resides the two companies, whose casts made the entertainment, a number of independent artists volunteered their services.
Irving Miller and Maceo, Pinkard, producers of "Liza," gave their services and the services of the cast without cost. In connection with the benefit the N. A. A. C. P. issued the following statement:
"Two entirely colored musical revues have had phenomenal success in New York on Broadway. Both of these revues, 'Shuffle Along' and 'Liza,' have generously given their services and their enthusiastic spirit to benefit performances for the N. A. A. C. P. The association commends the fine spirit shown to prevail in the ranks of the leaders of the theatrical profession, and desires to thank publicly the producers and casts of both 'Shuffle Along' and Liza,' as well as the independent artists who gave of their best."
600 WAITERS AT PALM BEACH HOTEL
Lester Walton Finds That Colored Garcons Are Losing Out Except in the South
New York, March 28.—Although the Negro has been supplanted by the white forgien-born waiter in many of the most fashionable hostetries of the East, he continues to hold undisputed and uninterrupted sway as knight of the tray at Palm Beach, Fla., said Lester Walton in the World Sunday.
At this winter resort, the most popular playground in America, it is "George," not "Gaston" who reigns supreme in the dining room, where he graciously functions as the intermediary between guest and culinary department.
Gallant Six Hundred.
The 600 and odd waiters at Palm Beach during the season are recruited chiefly from the ranks of those who work at Northern summer resorts. Joseph S. McLane, head waiter at the Royal Poinciana, brings his 425 men to Florida on three special trains. Two of them go out from New York and one from Chicago. This season the first special left New York Jan. 13, picking up men at Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington and Richmond. The second special departed Jan. 17. The Chicago special is made up of waiters from Chicago, Cleveland, French Lick Springs, Columbus and Louisville. In New York the men are engaged for the Southern trip by Dr. B. C. Waller, formerly secretary to Headwaiter McLane whose headquarters are at the National Headwaiters' Association, No. 436 Lenox Avenue. Joe McLane, as he is familiarly called, is in his twenty-third season at Palm Beach. He has been head waiter since 1908. Twenty-four assistant headwaiters are on his staff, Morris Skelly, another Negro, is head waiter at the Breakers with 175 men.
McLane and Skelly also appear in the role of amusement promoter. The star colored baseball players of the country are brought to Palm Beach by them and two clubs organized, one representing the Royal Poinciana and the other the Breakers. Visitors are treated to some high class ball playing in the winter months, with comedy throw in for good measure. Another form of entertainment furnished the guest by the headwaiters is the cakewalk. The winners consider the cake a minor compensation compared to the financial remuneration received from generous spectators.
Also Negro Musicians.
The band furnishing dance music on the beach, in Cocoanut Grove and in the Palm Room are picked Negro musicians from New York. The second band is made up largely of waiters who make extra money when the dining rooms close.
The Florida East Coast Hotel Company, which operates the Royal Poinciana and the Breakers, also conduct two hotels at St. Augustine, two at Ormond Beach, one at Miami, one at Long Key and one at Key West. With two exceptions, Negro waiters are employed.
Does waiting pay? The amount earned annually by the average waiter employed in fashionable hotels of New York exceeds that of many engaged in professions. Head waiters who make $5,000 a year in wages and tips are numerous.

New Colored Race Being Formed in Mexico
Amalgamation of Spanish, Indian and Negro to Form New Colored Race in Mexico, Says Noted White Educator.
San Diego, Calif., April—(Pacific News Bureau.) "Within four or five generations hence an entirely new race will be formed in the Republic of Mexico," stated Dr. Edgar L. Hewett, famous author-educator-lecturer in a recent address before the College Women's Club of San Diego. "This new race," said Dr. Hewett, "will have as its basis the North American Indian and will include the amalgamation of the Negro and the Spanish."
According to Dr. Hewett, "this new race will have black personal characteristics, Indian ideas and a language that is a mixture of English, French and Spanish."
It is no secret that the various colored races who desire to live in America in happiness and without fear of persecution are slowly but surely migrating to the great Mexican Republic where they are welcomed without prejudice.
The American Indian, few in number but wealthy, objects to the narrow bounds of reservation life and longs for freedom amid the vast expanses of virgin nature such as is only possible in Mexico.
The Hindu, no longer classed as white, the Chinese, the Japanese and other foreign colored peoples are to be barred from owning or leasing land in the United States.
New Anti-Alien Laws Drafted.
Under the alien land laws in effect in most Pacific states, the Hindu, Chinese, Japanese, African and other aliens not eligible to citizenship in the United States, are not only prohibited from becoming citizens of the United States, but are also prohibited from acquiring control of farming lands either by direct sale, lease or through cropping contracts in the state of California and most states west of the Mississippi.
Assemblywoman Cora M. Woodbridge of Roseville, California, whose amendment to the alien land law incorporating the above restrictions has been received and prepared by Attorney General U. S. Webb, recently received from Cornelius Vanderbilt Jr., whose series of articles in the Hearst newspapers on the anti-Japanese propaganda have attracted considerable attention, the following telegraphic congratulation, "All success to you in your fight today for revision of the alien land law. It is commendable and wonderful to feel that there are still patriotic citizens willing to battle FOR ASPIRATIONS THAT WILL KEEP OUR COUNTRY WHITE."
A MONUMENT TO THE "MAMMIES"
A monument to the "mammies," is to be erected in the land. And the Daughters of Confederacy, Seem to think that it's just grand. I imagine I hear the "mammies," Cry out in Heaven above their joys, "If you want to do something to honor us, Don't lynch and burn our boys. A monument to us will do no good, We say this without filinching, Unless you stop the barbarous South From that joyful pastime called lynching
Now if you will do that one thing
Without making any fuss,
Then you can erect a monument
Or anything else to us."

Monsignor Ernesto Filippi, former apostolic delegate to Mexico, from which country he was expelled by the Obregon government, has been appointed apostolic delegate at Constantinople.
Mexico's first pure-bred live stock show was opened recently by President Obregon. More than 600 head of stock were entered by breeders in the southern United States. The show was held under the auspices of the Pure-Bred Live Stock Association of the United States.
Among the regrets expressed by the friends and admirers of Sarah Bernhardt in Paris, the most frequent is that her wish to die behind the footlights was ungratified. "Mollere's death in harness, facing the public," she frequently declared, "was an ideal end. I want to go that way."
The body of Mme. Sarah Bernhardt was removed a few days ago from her late home on the Boulevard Pereire to the Church of St. Francois de Sales, in a nearby street, and thence conveyed to the cemetery of the Pere-Lachaise, the last resting place of hundreds of France's famous people of all times.
Beer—old ale with a kick in it—was responsible for the remarkable victory of White Bud, a 66 to 1 chance in the Lincoln handicap at London, according to the assertions of the mare's trainer. Several weeks before the race the trainer says, White Bud was given a daily ration of two pints of beer. Prohibition has gone into effect in Constantinople under the instructions issued by the nationalist government from Angora. Any person found drinking alcoholic beverages will receive thirty strokes with the bastinado, a long pliable stick. Foreigners and traders selling liquor are liable to a fine of fifty Turkish pounds.
The census records in the employment of women in London show that 357 out of every 1,000 employed are in domestic service, 145 in the manufacture of clothing and that 125 do clerical work. Commercial and financial houses employ the largest percentage of men. Out of every 1,000 102 labor for concerns of this kind.
Exports from the Philippine islands to the United States in 1922 exceeded those of 1921 by more than $13,500,000, but the imports from the United States decreased approximately $26,000,000, according to figures just compiled by the bureau of customs. The total trade with the United States in 1922 amounted to $111,849,000, of which $64,116,000 was exports and $47,738,000 was imports. The total trade in 1921 was $124,486,000, the exports being $50,356,000 and the imports $74,130,000. British ships carried the largest portion of the total trade of the Philippines in 1922, their cargoes being valued at $67,786,000, while American ships carried goods valued at $62,000,000.

Dicky Jensen, 5, and Dean Mecham, 4, of San Bernardino, Calif., whose bodies were found in a packing box after they had been missing six days, died of starvation, according to the verdict rendered by the coroner's jury. Art objects valued at hundreds of thousands of dollars were destroyed recently when a fire of unknown origin destroyed the home of Mrs. Oliver Dwight Norton in Montecito, Calif. The home, one of the new places of Southern California, was built at a cost of $200,000.
Mrs. Esther Grant, sold to the wife of a Chicago broker, was found dead in her room in a hotel in San Francisco. Police say that Mrs. Grant committed suicide. Friends declared that she had said repeatedly that she would commit suicide when her resources were exhausted rather than accept employment.
A dog owned by A. V. Sastian, Van Nuys, Calif., lost its life while searching a burning barn for its master's baby, safe in the house at the time. The dog had been taught to search for the child when asked the question, "where is the baby?" Someone asked that question while the flames were destroying the barn, and the dog dashed into the burning building.
Assessment of the 2 per cent license tax on oil production will be put on value of the oil at the well, according to a decision by the Montana State Board of Equalization. Payment of the 1 per cent tax, in effect until the last meeting of the Legislature, in some cases deducted from the field price the cost of pipe transmission and of railroad freight on the oil to refineries.
A married man cannot be sued for breach of promise, it was ruled in the Superior Court at Los Angeles, in finding for the defendant in suit for damages of $35,000 brought by Katie Rudon against Sam Kapper. The court announced the decision after Kapper's attorney had argued that "the promise to marry of a man already married was void and against public policy."
All street beggars in Los Angeles are professional mendicants and there is not a single case of need among them, according to the Los Angeles social service commission, which has opened its drive against begging on the streets with an appeal to the public to "meet them with jobs." Sixteen large charitable institutions and numerous small relief organizations, according to the commission, make it unnecessary for those in distress to beg on the street, but the professional mendicants prefer the easier and more profitable method of appealing to public sympathy on the sidewalks.

A warrant was issued for the arrest of John W. Clifton, prominent Washington attorney in connection with the case of Thomas Craven and Frank Dorian of Boston, arrested in New York for conspiracy to violate the Volstead act.
After months of antagonism and the delay caused by the test of its constitutionality, the packers and stockyards act is now established on a solid basis and its administration is contributing directly and effectively to the good of the live stock industry, Secretary Wallace of the department of agriculture, announces in a statement just made public.
Federal Prohibition Commissioner Haynes has made tentative plans to visit Denver early next month to stimulate enforcement work in the intermountain country. It is probable that he will be accompanied by E. C. Yellowley, chief of the prohibition agents, and one of the headquarters legal staff, and will hold conferences with state officials and prohibition agents. Charles W. Morse, New York shipbuilder, recently carried to the District of Columbia Court of Appeals his fight to prevent the trial in Washington on charges of conspiracy to defraud the government of himself, three sons and four others. Counsel for Morse filed a petition for a writ of prohibition, which, if granted, would prevent any judge in the District of Columbia Supreme Court from proceeding with the trial.
Collections of income tax up to March 15, exceed $450,000,000, it was shown recently upon receipt of final returns from internal revenue collectors over the country. Collections to March 15, last year, were $335,000,000, showing an increase of more than one-third, which treasury officials regard as striking evidence of business prosperity throughout the United States. A public market in San Francisco has installed "community scales" in order that customers may weigh their purchases. This, the management says, eliminates weight shortages.
STATE CAPITOL NEWS LETTER
---
The Colorado river compact was unanimously passed on second reading by the state House of Representatives without discussion or explanation.
With the passage of the amended Lambert consolidation bill by the State House of Representatives the question of the date of adjournment of the Twenty-fourth General Assembly becomes rather complicated. April 10 was selected tentatively by Republicans some time ago as the date of adjournment, but legislators point out that until the fate of the Lambert bill has been decided the Legislature cannot turn its attention to the one weighty measure that still remains for consideration, the long appropriation bill. Consensus is that the Senate will ratify the Lambert bill. After that is accomplished Governor Sweet will have ten days to consider the bill. If he should let the bill become a law without his signature, as Hale Smith, his secretary, has announced as a possibility, all the work that has been done to date by the House appropriations committee and the Senate finance committee will go for naught and a complete redrafting of the long appropriation bill on the basis of the reorganized state government will be necessary. However, even in the event Sweet vetoes the Lambert bill such action is not likely to come within the next two weeks, and in consequence legislators believe April 10 is no longer a possible date for adjournment, and are inclined to say it is highly probable the Assembly will be in session until at least April 20. The passage of the Lambert bill by the House was accomplished only after some difficulty by Republican leaders in holding all members to caucus rule.
The special committee appointed to investigate the state institutions which overdrew their appropriations made its report to the House. A resolution was also introduced by the committee calling for the appointment of another Legislative committee to investigate the institutions during the next two years and make a report at the Twenty-fifth General Assembly. The committee which reported was composed of Representatives J. W. Calkins, Republican, and A. E. Headlee and James J. Eubank, Democrats. The increased cost in the penal and charitable institutions is caused by a very large increase in the number of inmates according to the report. "In the case of our educational institutions," the report reads, "we find in some instances very poor business management, in others we think waste and extravagance prevail in greater or less degree. It seems to us that the management of the various institutions in many instances have entirely forgotten the purpose for which they were created." As an example of this the report states that in the normal school supposed to prepare teachers for the public schools that the following courses are given: costume designing, artistic development modern drama interior decorating, millinery, house planning, house decorating, heating sanitation, wood working, shop problems, cabinet making, concrete construction, art metal work, band, orchestra, pipe organ, string, wood and brass instruments, aesthetic dancing and boxing, tennis, general physics for engineering, household electricity, magnetism and electric waves. The total expenditure for the educational institutions of the state for 1919 and 1920 was $3,992,221.22 and for 1921 and 1922 it increased to $5,525,784.33, according to the report.
Test signals on railroads are prohibited by H. B. 70, which passed on second reading. Another measure approved on second reading appropriates $4,000 for an agricultural experiment station in Cheyenne county. The House recommended the bill amending the teachers' minimum salary law after it had failed to receive enough votes to pass on final reading. The vote on this measure was 28 to 33. Approval was given to the bill appropriating $75,000 for the erection of buildings for the Adams State Normal School at Alamosa. There was slight opposition to the passage of the measure.
The bill providing for the repeal of the half mill levy for highways was passed by the House on second reading. It will not be passed on third reading by the House until the Senate finally passes the bill raising the tax on gasoline from 1 to 2 cents. An attempt was made to have the bill laid over until the Senate had passed the bill raising the tax on gasoline, but Representative Louis J. Carter said that the measure would not be passed on final reading until the Senate had taken action.
Senate bill No. 413, by Senator Toll, which allows cities of the state to adopt zoning regulations and appoint an adjustment commission to enforce them was passed on second reading. An attempt was made to except cities of less than 25,000 from the provisions of the act, but this failed.
Methods of determination of the valuation of public utility property used by the tax commission, are made matters of public record under the provisions of a bill by Representative Wheeler, which passed the House on second reading.
RAILROADS ASK HELP OF PUBLIC
LINES PLAN LOADINGS TO PASS
1,000,000 CARS WEEK DURING
CROP MOVEMENT.
PLAN IMPROVEMENTS
$1,540,000 WILL BE SPENT ON
EQUIPMENT DURING 1923 BY
RAILWAYS
New York.—The American Railways Association approved the expenditure by its members of $1,540,000,000 for equipment, the biggest aggregate railroad budget ever recorded, then issued a nation-wide appeal for co-operation in helping the roads through the heaviest transportation era in history. Basing estimates on the unprecedented tonnage hauled in recent months, the association's experts forecast the smashing of all records in 1923 with at least thirteen weeks when car loadings will exceed 1,000,000 a week, and an estimated high mark of 1,080,000 cars predicted for the week of next Oct. 20, at the height of the fall crop movement.
Realizing that with existing facilities, they were unprepared for such a year, the railroads contracted for $440,000,000 worth of new supplies in 1922 and $1,100,000,000 more for 1923. They also have speeded up shop repairs, reconstruction and maintenance of way departments to the point where they promise by fall to reduce the transportation of railroad coal and supplies to the minimum and to have a high percentage of rolling stock available for their increased service promised customers. Public assistance to help early shipping and storing of all freights, including coal, ore and construction materials that usually interfere with the fall movement of crops, was asked by the conference.
The roads ask that shippers conserve space and help keep cars moving; that dealers and consumers get their coal into blns early; that the bulk of ore and coal shipments on the Great Lakes be completed early in the summer; that road and construction work be started as soon as possible, so rail equipment may be available for crop movements in the fall. On their part, the roads will try to have an extraordinary number of good order locomotives and cars available in the fall; to have all coal intended for railroad use in storage by Sept. 1, to restrict the transportation of railroad supplies to the minimum during the fall rush, and to help keep every car moving.
"Despite the obstacles placed in the way of transportation service since July 1, 1922, by the cumulative effects of the coal miners and shopmen's strikes, the railroads have, between July 1, 1922, and March 17, 1923—a period of thirty-seven weeks—handled the greatest volume of traffic ever transported during any corresponding period in the history of the country.
"The railroads of the country are raising this enormous amount of additional capital largely through borrowed money on the abiding faith in the fairness of the American people and reliance on the continuance of the policy announced in the transportation act of 1920 as a measure of reasonable protection to investment in railroad property.
Business In U. S. Booming.
Washington. — Declarations were made in two official quarters that general business conditions throughout the East were nearly normal. The central and western parts of the United States were said, at the same time, to be making rapid strides towards recovery. Secretary Mellon asserted that the industrial and financial situation in the East appeared "very satisfactory." The federal reserve board declared in its official monthly bulletin that continued active business conditions in every section were shown by the maintenance of a high rate of industrial production.
Foster Jury Disagrees.
St. Joseph, Mich.—Hopelessly deadlocked after thirty-one and a quarter hours, the jury trying William Z. Foster of Chicago for alleged violation of the Michigan law against criminal syndicalism, was discharged by Judge Charles White.
The jurors stood six to six during thirty-eight ballots.
Five men and one woman voted for Foster's acquittal and six men for his conviction.
Hot Springs Hotel Burns.
Hot Springs, Ark.—One fireman was killed and two others were seriously hurt when the walls of the Arlington hotel, noted hostelry which was destroyed by fire recently, crumbled and fell upon them as they were working in the ruins with a hose line. The hotel the oldest hostelry in Hot Springs, and one of the most noted in the South, was destroyed by fire of undetermined origin. More than 800 guests escaped without serious injury, although dense smoke filled the structure.

A FARMER carrying an express package from a big mail-order house was accosted by a local dealer.
"Why didn't you buy that bill of goods from me? I could have saved you the express, and besides you would have been patronizing a home store, which helps pay the taxes and builds up this locality."
The farmer looked at the merchant a moment and then said:

Madden on Public Building Program
WASHINGTON.—Republican progressives who will sit in the next house of representatives are organizing an insurgent movement to be unleashed the moment the gavel falls next December. The insurgency will be directed at preventing the election of the speaker of the house and house organization until assurances are given that certain committees will be "unpacked" and the progressive legislation program heeded. Thirty-eight members are pledged to the movement, which is being led by Representative John M. Nelson (Rep., Wis.), leader of the so-called La Follette group, and Representative Roy Woodruff (Rep., Mich.)
Representative Nelson made public a letter written by himself and Representative Woodruff, as spokesmen for "the progressive Republican conference," which has been sent to all newly elected Republican members of the house, demanding revision of the house rules and the "unpacking" of committees which it is charged are stacked against progressive legislation. A tentative program of legislation prepared for circulation among all Republican representatives contem-
LOANS of from $400,000,000 to $500,000,000 should be furnished by the War Finance corporation this year to assist in financing agriculture, according to Senator Capper (Rep., Kan.), head of the senate farm bloc, who with other members of the senate and house has held conferences with Secretary of Agriculture Wallace and with members of the farm loan board. The group of agricultural members, who are taking steps to see that agriculture gets sufficient credit while the machinery established under the new law is being put into operation, have also conferred with directors of the War Finance corporation.
"The farm situation is more acute than last year because the co-operative associations are carrying a heavier burden of debt than a year ago," Senator Capper said. "We think the War Finance corporation should make all the good loans it can through the co-operative associations. Most of the loans made last year have been paid off, but they were paid off at the end of the crop season and
THE situation in the army air service is "most critical" with its war surplus of equipment "rapidly disappearing" and war-time aeronautical industry "facing extinction." Representative-Elect J. Mayhew Wainwright, Republican, of New York, former assistant secretary of war, declares in a partial report to Secretary Weeks on turning over his office to his successor, Dwight F. Davis. Under the national defense act, the assistant secretary is charged with responsibility for planning industrial mobilization of the nation for war.
The outstanding conclusion of Mr. Wainwright's two-year study of the industrial situation was a recommendation for a continuing aircraft appropriation over five years at $25,000,000 a year, $15,000,000 to be for procurement of reserve planes and $10,000,000 annually for current operations.
Referring to the present situation of the air service, Mr. Wainwright said: "What there is left of it is rapidly disappearing, due to deterioration and to the losses while in actual use. Its war-time manufactured equipment has been practically used up. The amounts of money appropriated for
UNTIL the present building boom in the country has come to a close the United States government should not enter upon a public building construction program, in the opinion of Representative Martin B. Madden (Rep., Ill.), chairman of the house committee on appropriations. Representative Madden has come to this conclusion after a thorough investigation into the building situation and with a view to the federal government taking a lead in arranging its public works in order to afford employment in periods of depression.
Pending the end of the present home building activity the Illionis congressman would have an exhaustive survey of government building requirements made throughout the country, and a program drawn up which, under no circumstances, should include any building anywhere not justified by the business of the government.
"The wisdom of this policy," Mr. Madden said today, "must be apparent to any one who gives the matter serious consideration.
"It would prevent competition with the home builders which such a program entered upon at this time would entail.
"It would give the government the buildings needed at a more moderate cost.
"It would find employment for those
plates new laws relating to transportation, taxes, farm credits, presidential and congressional primaries, cooperative associations, prevention of war, soldiers' compensation, and "protection of the public interests" in coaf, timber, water power and other natural resources.
"It is the purpose of the progressive Republicans in forming the organization to relieve the house of the tyranny of the floor leaders," Representative Nelson said. "As the country knows, legislation in the house is controlled by the floor leader and the speaker, with the co-operation of the committee on rules.
"Our fight will not be directed against conservatives or anybody else. It is not our purpose to disrupt the party, but we do intend to put progressive ideas to the front."
"The balance of power in the two houses of congress is in the hands of the progressives. We are not opposed to the President. We believe that he will agree to our program.
"While we look upon Speaker Gillett as a conservative, we regard him as a fair and courteous presiding officer. There is no hostility to him personally."
when the cattle were marketed. The demand has already started anew. It is my belief that between $400,000,000 and $500,000,000 should be loaned this season."
Those who accompanied Senator Capper Included Senators Gooding (Rep., Idaho) and Sheppard (Dem., Tex.), and Representatives Haugen (Rep., Ia.), Davis (Rep., Minn.), Sinclair (Rep., N. D.), and Huddleston (Dem., Ala.)
Following the conference with Secretary Wallace, the delegation visited the farm loan board, where a conference with the presidents of the 12 federal land banks was in progress. Charles E. Lobdell, head of the farm loan board, informed the senators and representatives that the new intermediate credit banks would be organized without delay, and that everything possible was being done so that the farmers of the country will get the full benefit of the legislation.
Under the new plans it is expected that the intermediate credit banks will be in working order before the beginning of the summer.
new aircraft are so small that within two years it will have on hand less than one-half the number of aircraft necessary for its normal peace-time work.
"There will be no aircraft to equip and expand the air service in time of emergency, no reserve on hand and it will be impossible in less than a year to expand the remnant of the aircraft industry which may be left or to create it anew so this material can be manufactured in sufficient quantity for use in such an emergency.
"The situation is not only serious, but is actually alarming. As an economic measure and likewise in the interest of national preparedness, the aeronautical industry in this country should be maintained in such condition that it can supply our peace-time needs and be prepared to expand adequately to meet a war-time demand."
Mr. Walnwright said the air service should be large enough to meet instantly "any air force which an enemy might bring against us." The role which the air service will play in national defense, he added, should be thoroughly understood, "and this component of the army should be increased to its proper strength."
engaged in the building industry at a time when employment is most needed and create a stabilizing influence on the labor market.
"A building program entered upon under such conditions would not only find employment for those directly engaged in the building trades but would also benefit kindred industries. It would aid the railroads by giving them additional transportation, aid the mines and give the miners employment. It would enlarge the opportunities for employment in the lumber industry, in the stone quarries, and in the brick yards, and all industries into which the building trades ramify; and thus the government in periods of depression might act as a useful agency to prevent the unemployment which periodically exists throughout the country.
"The government also might enter upon a more active road building program during such periods." Representative Madden has been giving the subject of government construction thought for many months. In general he thinks that omnibus building legislation should never be enacted by congress until some responsible government agency has ascertained all the facts concerning the necessity for it and only such buildings should be authorized as a survey shows to be essential for the transaction of the government business.

PROBLEMS ARISING FROM SOUTHERN MIGRATION.
THE fact that Negro labor continues to leave southern cotton fields and seek employment in the North and West, is causing many articles to appear in the editorial columns of leading daily papers. While the present movement is nothing like so rapid as that of the war period, when something like half million Negro laborers left the South for the munion plants and large industrial centers of the North, still there is a constantly increasing exodus from the South that has behind it a definite reason. As to the dangers or benefits arising from such a situation, opinion is divided as usual along lines of locality. The South views it from one angle, the North from another. Southern newspapers hypocritically profess a concern for the health and comfort of the Negro in the colder climate of the North and West. Seldom do they admit that the real cause of their concern and solicitude is the increasing shortage of labor in the South. The Southern white man is still lazy and obsessed of strange notions of aristocracy. The real farmers and substantial business men of the South are unwilling to see the Negro leave as such only complicates industrial condition and adds to the labor troubles. This, then accounts in a measure for a somewhat healthy and welcome growth of Inter-racial commissions in many states, making an honest effort to improve the living and labor conditions of the Negro, to add to his comfort and bring about a better and fairer adjustment of tenant farming contracts. The Northern view of the exodus may be classified as a dual one. While it is pretty generally agreed that the Negro, in deserting the South, with its low wages and constant mistreatment, is following the only course left open to a free, struggling people, some see in the movement a complication of racial questions in the North that may in time approach those of the South. We believe this latter picture greatly overdrawn. It is undeniably true that the coming of Negroes in large bodies from the South, must be handled carefully and with intelligence. Not every Negro from the benighted South is fitted at once for the greater liberties and larger freedom of the North. A process of education, sometimes long drawn out, must be his. No one recognizes this more than the northern Negro, hence the larger uses and activities of the Urban League, N. A. A. C. P. and other kindred organizations, that are seeking to better the housing and labor conditions of Southern laborers, while at the same time adopting every means of minimizing racial antagonism. But there is another phase of "southern exodus" that is just now offering a greater and more serious problem than can possibly arise from the migration of Negroes. Recently and with a similarity strangely suggestive, a great hue and cry has arisen all over the land for separate schools, racial segregation and proscription. There is hardly a northern state or city of any importance that is not now being agitated over these questions. Here in Denver, where we hardly form a conspicuous minority, some crazy, rabid southerners have proceeded to term our presence in this city as a menace. A vicious, contemptible paper called The Messenger is doing its utmost to arouse racial antagonism; a number of pseudo organizations are similarly engaged and only this week sought by every foul means to keep a Race representative from being appointed a member of Denver's Zoning Commission. So it would appear that in the increasing problems confronting us, there is not half the danger in Negroes coming from the South bent on securing work as there is in the white man coming from the South bent on raising disturbance.
THE SPRINGTIME.
OF THE four seasons of the year, none are so productive and suggestive of varying whims, emotions and sentiments as the season designated as Spring. One learns to accept Winter as a grim, dreary, cheerless season convenient to the moods of a tired world and relieved of its monotony only at gay Christmas time. One learns to look upon and accept the good old Summer time as the great out-door season, the time of vacations, picnics, excursions and chautauquas. It is the season that one seeks complete relaxation both mentally and physically; it is also the season of circuses, park amusements and camping parties. The season of Autumn is the great garnering time, but Spring with its emerging forces, its spur to action, its germinating influences, is, as we stated at the outset the most peculiar of all the seasons. "Tis then that poets and near poets find presumed inspiration, to sing the praises of "Spring, gentle Spring." "Tis then that the early morning hours are rendered musical by the clear, piping tones of the meadow lark. "Tis the growing season, the mating season and the time when a "young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love." More over Spring is an exceedingly practical season. The housewife finds it convenient to start her house cleaning crusade. Lace curtains and draperies come in for a vigorous renovating after a smoky furnace had done its worst for four or five months. Rugs are taken up, some painting here and there and the begrimed walls are brushed down and cobwebs removed. "Hubby" is reminded day and night that he must clean up the cellar, remove the "empties" and "dead soldiers," and dig a few flower beds, also a small garden spot. "Hubby" is reminded too, that he must drink his daily cup of sassafras or take that spring tonic without cuss words or making a wry face. These are natural attributes of the springtime. But it is and should be made the real, practical season of the year. It should be a season of actual preparation, not alone for the farmer, the horticulturist, florist and artisan, but for character building and moral growth as well. House cleaning time we call it, but the term should be broad and far reaching in its application. We must look well to ourselves, cleanse and purge our souls as well as our bodies. If it be true that the arteries and blood cells need a little toning, what of our selfish, clogged spiritual natures. If we are to grow into the full summer time of a life of usefulness to mankind, society and civilization, that the golden harvest of faithful endeavor may be garnered and preserved abundantly in the Autumn and cherished in the Winter of our lives, it were well that we give the fullest expansion to the finer impulses born in the beauty of a glorious Springtime.
Apply the Constitution to 20th Century Problems With 20th Century Minds
By SENATOR IRVINE L. LENROOT, of Wisconsin.
The remedy for such ills as can be remedied is by obedience to the Constitution, securing amendments where amendments are necessary, by the appointment of judges of our courts who are not only able lawyers, but men of human sympathies and outlook, living neither in the last century nor the next, but in the living, throbbing world of today, keenly alive to the thought and aspirations of the people, and who will apply the Constitution to Twentieth-century problems with Twentieth century minds.
J. C. H.
It should never be forgotten by members of all courts, and by lawyers as well, that, to use the language of the Supreme court in the case of South Carolina against United States, "the Constitution is a written instrument. As such its meaning does not alter, and what it meant when adopted it means now. Being a grant of powers to a government, its language is general, and as changes come in social and political life it embraces in its grasp all new conditions which are within the scope of the powers in terms conferred. In other words, while the powers granted do not change, they apply from generation to generation to all things to which they are in their nature applicable." And we should never forget the words of Story: "The instrument was not intended to provide merely for the exigencies of a few years, but was to endure through a long lapse of ages, the wants of which were locked up in the inscrutable purposes of Providence."
The Constitution has not outlived its usefulness. Its protecting care was never more needed than today. It is the duty of every citizen to withstand every assault upon it, whether its enemies be predatory interests seeking special privileges to the public injury or whether they be those who are opposed to any government that would safeguard and protect the rights and liberties of every citizen under its flag.
That congress shall at all times have respect for and be governed by the Constitution is the responsibility of the voters. It is their obligation to see to it that members of congress, senators and representatives, shall be men who will legislate not for bloc or class or section, but for all the people of America, who recognize that duty to country comes before duty to party, men who shall do their part to conserve all that is good in our past and strive to make tomorrow better than today.
Intellectual Manufacturing Institutions Dealing With Human Material
By DEAN OTIS E. RANDALL, in New York Herald.
Our colleges are in a sense great intellectual manufacturing institutions. We deal with very precious human material which comes to us from all parts of the world and which varies widely in quality. Out of this material we are expected to produce human machines which shall stand the highest tests and which shall efficiently meet the complex and ever increasing demands of the world about us.
This human material does not come to us in its original form, but is subjected to a great variety of transforming or molding processes before it is brought to that stage where we can profitably begin our work upon it. The quality of the material in this stage, which has so much to do with the quality of our finished product, depends very largely, if not wholly, upon the treatment which it has received before it is brought under the influence of the college.
If the great leaders in the industrial world have found it necessary to make such a careful study of the nature and the quality of the raw material which enters into their material production, should we, as leaders in the educational world, show any less concern than they about the quality of the material upon which we are to work and upon which the quality of our output is so dependent?
More Wonder and Awe Than Loftiest Snow Mountain or Grandest Waterfall
By VISCOUNT BRYCE, in "Memories of Travel."
Why this deep hole in the ground (Grand Canyon of the Colorado) should inspire more wonder and awe than the loftiest snow mountain or the grandest waterfall I will not attempt to explain, but it does.
One cannot leave off gazing and wondering. Beauty and grandeur enhance one another. Morning, noon and evening the same unchanging precipices show their unchanging colors, cliffs looking across at cliffs as they have done for millions of years, and will do for millions more.
One descends by a very steep and winding footpath down to the river at the bottom, and ascends again, seeing all there is to see, but the spell is the same when one emerges. The vastness and the changelessness create a sense of solemn silence. The intense silence is the most awesome thing. Why does this strange panorama produce so profound an effect? It is because color impressions are usually the most changeful of all the impressions we receive—since color varies with atmospheric conditions, exciting rather than stilling perception and mental reactions—that the eternal steadfastness and mathematical rigidity of these colors grasp and fix and seem to hypnotize the beholder?
China Apparently Getting Ready for Some Change, but Nobody Knows What
By ARTHUR H. MAUDSLEY, English Camphor Merchant.
I was in Peking when the deposed boy-emperor, Hsuan-tung, was married. From what I saw I should surmise that what went on inside the palace was done with all the ceremony and pomp of imperial days.
The Bolsheviki are creeping gradually nearer and nearer from Russia, and the foreign residents shake their heads and simply say they do not know what will occur next year. The country is apparently getting ready for some change, but what it will be nobody knows. There were many strange rumors circulating in Peking and Nanking, and it may be that there will be an end to the republic.
The superstitions of the masses of the Chinese people who live on the land are well known, and it has been suggested that they would welcome again a monarchy. For some years the crops have been bad, and the reason assigned is that there has been no emperor to pray each year at the Temple of Heaven or to plow the first furrow at the Temple of Agriculture and offer up prayers and burn all kinds of things for the success of the various crops.

Eason Slayers Are Found Guilty of Manslaughter
Eason Slayers Are Found Guilty of Manslaughter
New Orleans, March 30.—A verdict of manslaughter was found by a jury yesterday in the case of William Shakespeare and Constantine Dyer, two followers of Marcus Garvey, who were tried for killing the Rev. J. W. H. Eason, an opponent of Garvey and one of the principal witnesses who were to have testified against Garvey in the federal case charging him with fraudulent use of the malls. Dr. Eason was fatally wounded following a church meeting January 1, at which he spoke against Marcus Garvey.
Eason was formerly a supporter of Garvey, but following federal indictment of Garvey on the charge of fraudulent use of the United States mails left the Garvey organization and publicly condemned Garvey as an embezzler of funds of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, of which the latter is head.

Bill Introduced in Kansas Legislature to Eliminate Race Distinctions
Proposed Bill Would Eliminate Theater and Hotel Discrimination
Topeka, Kansas, April. — (Pacific News Bureau.) What is considered the most radical measure yet introduced in the Kansas legislature was recently introduced by Mrs. Minnie Grinstead of Liberal, Kansas, in the House.
The proposed bill would eliminate entirely any distinction between Negroes and white people, making it compulsory for all theatres and hotels to admit Negroes the same as white persons. This bill is causing the Kansas motion picture theatre owners considerable worry and strong opposition against the bill from this source is expected.

"To all, Walter White was the personification of the achieving efforts of the N. A. A. C. P. to secure facts and evidence with which great court decisions have been won and with which to enlighten and awaken the public mind and conscience, he has ventured time and time again into the jaws of death, into the mouth of hell, and thus it was a warm-hearted, informal and admiring audience that sent up cheer upon cheer as he arose to tell them the fine thrilling message of the N.

The first installment on the pledges of the recent Y. M. C. A. drive fell due this week, beginning with the first day of the month, and the manner in which the subscribers have brought in their dues has been very gratifying. Many are paying in full and are thus becoming eligible for the first honor roll list. In order to reach all the subscribers, the majority of whom live some distance from the building, the teams have been kept intact and are now being sent out for the accommodation of those who have not found the time to call by the building. It is the wish of the authorities that all the first installment may be cleared up at least by the 15th of the month, so as to make way for the second installment which will be due on May 1st. The first report of the payment will be published in these notes in the issue of next week.
The meeting (tomorrow) Sunday afternoon will be of unusual interest. Mrs. Fred O. Kelley will be the speaker and will give an address on "The Black Man's Offering to the Stars and Stripes."

"T sometimes wonder," said Mrs. Kelley in speaking of her coming lecture, "whether the colored people know or realize how much they have really done for their country." The program will be under the auspices of the Red Division in the recent drive. The meeting will be promptly at 4 o'clock. Everybody will be welcome.

VINES ADD BEAUTY TO SURROUNDINGS
Climbers Make the Home Attractive—Do Not Injure Walls—May Use Trellis.
The impression that vines are injurious to the walls of a house, making them damp or causing woodwork to rot, is erroneous, says the United States Department of Agriculture. On brick and stone buildings some of the clinging vines are most appropriate and attractive in completing the

charm of the home surroundings. On a wooden house the vines should not be permitted to become so thick that they prevent proper ventilation and timely painting, but hot sunshine is very destructive to paint, and the shade of vines helps to preserve it.
There are several devices for growing vines so as to permit removing them from the woodwork when it is necessary to paint the house. A trellis can be made with hinges near the ground, or a chicken wire placed over hooks at the highest point, so that it may be taken down, vines and all.
Another type of trellis can be made of chicken wire on a pipe frame, which will keep vines entirely away from woodwork. Vines are also appropriate on fences, arbors, pergolas or summer houses.
CHOICE FLOWERS TO PLANT
Splendid Assortment of Posles That Are Easy to Grow Under Ordinary Conditions.
Easiest to cultivate under ordinary garden conditions are the following flowers, says the United States Department of Agriculture. In choosing any of these for a bed or a border, it is well to note the usual growing heights: Sunflower, where a plant over four feet is wanted; Joseph's cont, love-lies-bleeding, heliopsis, and prince's feather, for a three-foot effect; cornflower, strawflower and zinnia, growing about thirty inches high; about twenty-four inches, calliopsis, summer chrysanthemum, coneflower, gallardia, marigold, poppy, and snow-on-the-mountain; about eighteen inches, mignonette; about twelve inches, Cape marigold, calendula, California poppy, balsam, candytuf, petunia, Drummond phlox, plink, dwarf nasturtium, portulaca, and sweet alyssum.
LOCATION OF THE GARDEN
The garden should be located in full sun wherever possible and this factor should receive first consideration when the location of the plot is being selected.
USE THE TRENCH FOR IRRIGATION
Scheme Conserves Water and Labor—Best Way to Reach Roots of Plants.
The proper amount of moisture is about as essential as enough warm sunshine, to produce a good garden crop. Too much moisture is worse than too much sunshine, for in the latter case the soil can be loosened, conserving what moisture the ground holds.
When the season is long and hot, with very little rainfall, the cottage gardener, if thoroughly interested, takes advantage of almost every opportunity to play the hose on his growing crops, thinking, of course, that he is doing just the right thing.
Perhaps more young plants are destroyed by shooting a cold spray of water on them than are killed or stunted by drought, or other reason. One splendid method of watering a garden, when sufficient water is available, and its metered cost is not to be considered, is the trench irrigation plan. Small ditches, three or four inches deep, along the plants, with a steady stream of water slowly running into the ditch, will be highly beneficial, and at the same time conserve the water supply, by not sending it where it is not needed. The roots, especially in the dry weather, search for moisture and continue their downward growth. Long roots are advantageous to many plants, while others do not need them.
The ditch irrigation plan will be found most beneficial and interesting, if used as it is in sections where it is the only way—a series of ditches along each row or a small group of rows, then when the watering is being done, train the stream through one ditch to the other, until the entire garden is given a good soaking. During a long drought, once a week will suffice when the ditch watering plan is used. The ditch may be closed each time after irrigating, or it may be left open. By closing, the water is practically sealed in and naturally

the ground will hold the moisture longer and the top will not crust, necessitating immediate cultivation, such as is necessary following a heavy rain.
TIME TO APPLY LIME
The time to apply lime is in the spring after the ground has been plowed or spaded. The lime can then be thrown broadcast over the surface thickly enough to give a decided white coating on the ground. It is then harrowed or raked into the top three inches of soil. The lime should not be plowed under as its tendency is to work downward, and by applying it on the surface the greatest benefit from it is secured.
LATE NEWS
From All Over
COLORADO
Lafayette—William C. Autrey, 77 years old, who homesteaded a tract of land near Superior fifty-three years ago, died a few days ago. Colorado Springs.—Dr. J. G. Pace, superintendent of the Modern Woodman sanitarium, underwent a serious operation at the Mayo Brothers clinic in Rochester, Minn., recently. Colorado Springs.—Police Captain Fred H. Springer was slightly cut by flying glass and drenched with vile-smelling liquor when a bottle which he was emptying into a sewer at the police station exploded. Boulder.—Dr. Kate Lindsey, pioneer physician of the Boulderado sanitarium died recently after a long illness. Dr. Lindsey was 81 years old. She had been connected with the sanitarium for almost a quarter of a century.
Lamar.—The town of Lamar has contracted for its first paving. Eleven bids for the project were submitted at a city council meeting and the contract was awarded to the Strange-McGuire Company of Denver. Work is to start at once. Greeley.—Charles E. Wickline, 23 years old, is in the Weld county jail, charged with the murder of Irvin O. Hittle, 21 years old, near Greeley. July 17 or 18, 1922. Wickline was arrested at the home of his father, Charles Wickline, near Kansas City.
Boulder.—The April term of the District Court at Boulder opened Monday with Judge Neil F. Graham of Fort Collins, presiding. A panel of forty jurymen has been ordered to appear at the court April 9. The docket is the smallest that the District Court has had come before it in many years. There are no criminal cases in the list and but fifty-four civil cases.
Pueblo.—Following a visit to Woodcroft hospital, formerly owned by Secretary of the Interior Hubert Work, Governor Sweet refused to make any statement concerning the possibility of the institution being obtained for state hospital purposes. Governor Sweet inspected the hospital accompanied by Dr. H. A. Lamoure of the state hospital, F. S. Hoag and a Denver architect.
Cañon City.—That the Cañon City Chamber of Commerce is not discouraged in its effort to make the Arkansas river between Salida and Cañon City a trout fishing stream is evidenced from the fact that 150,000 brook trout fry from four to ten inches long were liberated into the river from the propagating ponds at Parkdale recently by J. P. Walts of Cañon City who has had charge of the ponds for the past year.
Delta.—A scourge of black diphtheria has claimed three lives in the little settlement of Escalante Cañon, thirty-five miles from Delta, and so isolated that the sufferers have been unable to obtain physicians. A report from Delta stated that the village has no telephone connection. One of the plague victims is Miss Amelia Simineo, school teacher from Whitewater, Colo. Robert Shreeves, 6 years old, and Henry Street, 4 are also dead.
Denver.—A little Japanese girl, scoring a grade of 100 per cent, won the $100 first prize in the spelling "bee" of the fourth annual Colorado spelling and oratorical contest at the East Denver high school. She is Miss Frances Kido of Rocky Ford, who made not a single error in a long list of difficult words. Miss Ruth Scheidegger of Fort Morgan won the $100 first prize in the oratorical contest. Miss Bernice Jensen of Mount Harris took second place in the spelling contest and received $56, and second prize in the oratorical contest was William Wood of Deer Trail.
Denver.—Senate bill 195, which would authorize the funding of judgments by the issuance of county bonds, was vetoed by Gov. William E. Sweet as a "vlicous measure." The bill had passed both Senate and House. The bill, as the governor expressed his understanding of it, was passed as a relief measure for Montrose county, which is now in difficulty over the construction of a new court house.
Brighton.—Walter Walker, one of the promoters of the automobile races at Brighton was injured, possibly fatally and Fred Parrish, a motion picture man, and Roy Bradbury, a driver in the race, were cut and bruised in accidents during the races a few days ago. Walker and Parrish were in a car by the side of the track, when one of the racing machines, driven by Howard Baker of Boulder, went through the fence and upset the auto. Walker was plined beneath his car and was unconscious when taken from under it. He was taken to a Denver hospital. Parrish was not much hurt. Baker escaped injury. Bradbury was severely cut about the face and head when his car went through a barbed wire fence.
Denver.—All records for attendance at the municipal Auditorium were broken by the crowds that thronged to see the Elks-Craig Colony circus. Approximately $15,000 was raised. The money will be used to finish construction of the Elks' hospital building at the colony, and to furnish the structure after completion.
Lamar.—George Rose, a farmer living ten miles southwest of Lamar, was instantly killed by an unidentified man who opened the door of the living room at the Rose home and fired a shot-through his victim's right eye
Boulder.—The annual conference of the Colorado Association of School Secretaries, Principals and Superintendents closed recently at Boulder with a banquet of the Schoolmasters' Club, addressed by Prof. Herbert S. Hadley. The convention was largely attended, more than 300 being present at the meetings of the main association and the auxiliaryes. Officers elected are: Colorado association—S. M. Andrews of Walsenburg, president; W. L. Blaine of Glenwood Springs, vice president. High School Principals—W. S. Roe of Colorado Springs, president; Guy Fox of Leadville, secretary. Elementary school principals—Miss Susie Loveland of Boulder, president; H. Cary Jacobs of Pueblo, secretary; Executive committee for the association—Mary G. Carson of Denver, W. D. Casey of Boulder, H. M. Cornish of Trinidad, J. S. Keating of Pueblo, Rosea Pulford of Durango, R. F. Kelner of Denver, H. L. Van Fleet of Monte Vista, re-elected. The new members are O. W. Rope of Littleton, Amy Dickinson of Sterling and Johns C. Casey of Eaton.
Cañon City.—Almost ten months from the day on which former Governor Shoup paroled him, Harold Henwood was again put behind the bars. His ungovernable temper, which caused him to draw a pistol and fire point blank into a crowd of men in the barroom of the Brown Palace hotel twelve years ago and caused him to kill two men and cripple a third one for life, is responsible for his return to the penitentiary. Henwood threatened to kill a young girl, a banker and a woman for whom he had worked because the girl would not marry him. "That is a violation of the parole and we had to bring him back," said Thomas J. Tynan, warden of the penitentiary, Tuesday, as he confirmed the report that Henwood is again a prisoner in the penitentiary.
Boulder.—The short course for metermen, conducted by the electrical engineering department of the University of Colorado, closed a few days ago. It was attended by representatives of a number of Wyoming and Colorado cities. Prof. C. E. McCormick was in charge of the technical instruction. Addresses were given during the conference by Herbert Tewksbury, Denver Gas and Electric Light Company; Herbert Dwight, electric engineer, of the public utilities commission; C. A. Cummings, Duncan Electric Meter Company; William Trudgian, Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company; Dean H. S. Evans, University of Colorado.
Fort Collins.—Almost every farmer occasionally goes up against the problem of measuring hay in the stack. Buyer and seller often find it difficult to get together, because of different methods of measuring hay that are in common use. Therefore it is a convenience to have at hand a rule that has received the approval of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. This rule is found in Bulletin 281 of the Colorado Agricultural Experiment Station, Fort Collins. The bulletin is entitled "Methods of Handling Hay in Colorado" and its author is G. A. Cunlings. It is for free distribution.
Greeley.—Bert J. Lowe, convicted of the murder of Edna Fern Skinner, his sister-in-law, applied to the District Court for a new trial. Application was made through Robert E. Winbourn and Carl W. Farr, his attorneys. Lowe was convicted on Dec. 9, 1922, by a jury in the court of Judge George A. Bradfield of Greeley of having murdered Miss Skinner on July 2, 1922, in the Lowe home.
Lamar.—Two airplane passengers were instantly killed and a pilot probably fatally hurt a few days ago when a machine crashed to the ground at Manter, Kan., on the Colorado line. The dead are William Holman and C. I. Haynes, both of Hugoton, Kan. William Dugan, the pilot, is in the Mercy hospital at Liberal, Kan.
Pueblo.—Oil was struck in Pueblo county a few days ago when a company drilling five miles east of Pueblo announced the drill had pierced the cap rock and was in an oil sand. The drilling was ordered ceased immediately to permit final preparations for bringing the well in. Tanks are ordered and will be placed to take care of the oil, and the casing will be lowered to shut off all water before the well will be shot. The oil sand was encountered at 2,930 feet. Pueblo.—Attorney Sperry S. Packard of Pueblo received notice of his appointment as referee in bankruptcy for the Pueblo district. The appointment was made by Judge J. Foster Symes of the United States District Court. The Pueblo district includes the Arkansas and San Luis valleys and counties west of Chaffee.
Denver.—Miss Elizabeth Eppleen,
28 years old, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
W. M. Epplein of 1475 Humboldt
street, committed suicide in Long
Beach, Calif., by shooting herself in
the head, according to dispatches
received in Denver. Apparently the motive for her act was despondency from ill health and loneliness.
Colorado Springs—Arthur Piper, 18 years old, of 2616 South Pennsylvania street, Denver was probably fatally injured and Vern Marsh, 19 years old, of 2832 South Bannock street, Denver, was painfully bruised a few days ago when a handcar on which they were riding was struck by a southbound passenger train near Colorado Springs. The two boys took the handcar at Palmer Lake and were on their way to Colorado Springs when the accident occurred. Piper is in St. Francis hospital, and his recovery is doubtful. Marsh was lodged in the city fail.

MUTTON SAUSAGE SUGGESTED TO DISPOSE OF SURPLUS MATERIAL
Mutton or Lamb May. Be Used for Sausage.

Common Table Salt and Boiling Water Are Useful—Rub With Good Abrasive Polish.
A satisfactory method for cleaning household silver, according to the United States Department of Agriculture, is as follows: An enamel or agate ware dish should be partly filled with a cleaning solution of one teaspoonful of common table salt to each quart of water and placed directly on the stove to boll. A sheet of aluminum or clean zinc should then be dropped into the dish and the tarnished silver placed in contact with this metal. It is best that the silver be entirely covered with the cleaning solution and that the solution remain at the boiling temperature. As soon as the tarnish has been removed the silver should be removed, rinsed in clean water, and wiped with a soft cloth.
Aluminum corrodes quickly in the cleaning solution, so that aluminum dishes of any value for culinary purposes should never be used. Aluminum ware, that would otherwise be thrown away, or any inexpensive piece of the metal, will serve very satisfactorily for cleaning silver. Zinc may be used in place of aluminum, but it becomes corroded and inactive in a much shorter time. The electrolytic method may be used as frequently as is necessary to remove the tarnish, but it is necessary to rub the silver with some good abrasive polish only as often as may be desirable to restore the burnished appearance.
PRUNES GOOD IN EMERGENCY
Addition of Few Chopped Nut Meats and Decorated With Whipped Cream Is Attractive.
Unexpected company—and nothing in the house for dessert! Of course, one wouldn't think of offering guests who have come from a distance the plain old prunes the children had for lunch—and there isn't time to cook anything. In one way or another almost every housekeeper has been in this dilemma. What one ingenious woman did was to pit and mash the luncheon prunes, and add to them a few chopped nut meats—half a cupful to a pint of prune pulp. She stirred in a tablespoonful of lemon juice and two tablespoonfuls of sugar and served the result with cream from the top of the milk bottle. This dessert became so popular she was called on to prepare it frequently, and when she wanted to make it look very attractive—and was not bridging an emergency—she put it into individual pastry shells and decorated it with whipped cream. When she couldn't get whipped cream she made a meringue of egg-white and sugar and browned it delicately before serving.
The children liked this prune and nut mixture in their school lunches instead of preserves, occasionally, and served on plain crackers or between two crackers, it was appetizing with a cup of tea. The United States Department of Agriculture indorses this prune and nut mixture for these uses.
CODDLED EGGS ARE FAVORED
Plan Suggested for Cooking in Such a Way That Whites Will Not Be Overcooked.
Many means have been suggested for cooking eggs in such a way that the yolks will be cooked and the whites will not be overcooked. One of the most satisfactory is by codling, which is done as follows: Allow a cupful of water to each egg, bring the water to the boiling point, remove it from the fire, put in the eggs, cover the dish closely, and leave the eggs in the water for about seven minutes. There is some uncertainty about this method, for eggs differ in weight and also in temperature at the time the cooking begins. On the whole, however, this result can be obtained by pouring hot water over eggs, if the same dish with the same amount of water is always used, but each cook must make her own rules
often convenient, particularly in the warmer months, to make only small quantities for immediate use.

CLUB GIRLS WEAR UNIFORMS
Rolldale Organization in Meade County, Kansas, First to Complete Dresses for Meetings.
(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.)
The first girls' club in the state of Kansas in 1922 in which 100 per cent of the members completed the making of club uniforms to be worn at their meetings, was the Rolldale club in Meade county. Although these girls live on farms and are very busy with the regular work of the farm home, they always find time for their club work. One girl reported to the extension agent of the United States Department of Agriculture and the state college of agriculture that be-

tables. It is a good plan to keep the kitchen door closed and a window lowered from the top while the cooking is going on. Cabbage, rutabagas, carrots, potatoes are the vegetables usually cooked together. A nice, fat piece of corned beef with a piece of fat pork makes a good flavor. The meat is put into the vegetable kettle and cooked for an hour at simmering temperature before the vegetables are added. The cabbage is cut into quarters, and if small two will be needed for a family of five who are healthy and like boiled dinners. A good, big rutabaga, weighing three or four pounds, should be cut into wedge-shaped pieces; the carrots, if small, may be cooked whole; otherwise they are cut into halves and quarters. The potatoes are best left whole, and should be of uniform size. Cook slowly for an hour or more, then serve with vegetables arranged in alternating colors around the platter, with the meat in the center. The hash, which may be made from the left-overs, is often as much enjoyed as the original dinner. Chop the vegetables, add some of the broth and chopped meat, stirring until well-mixed and seasoned. Salt will need to be added unless the meat is very salt. The broth is very nice and tasty, and may be kept for a dinner soup later in the week.
Rice Salad.—Take one cupful of cooked rice, one cupful of diced cooked beets, and two cupfuls of minced celery. Season with one quarter of a teaspoonful of mustard, one teaspoonful of powdered sugar, a dash of cayenne, and moisten with a good boiled dressing.

MORE GOOD FOODS
In the spring when all the winter store of canned and preserved fruit is gone, a very good conserve is the following:
Raisin Peach Conserve. — Wash and soak three cupfuls of dried peaches; cut them into small pieces
Raisin Peach Conserve. — Wash and soak three cupfuls of dried peaches; cut them into small pieces and use three cupfuls of water. In the morning after soaking all night add one and one-half cupfuls of chopped blanched almonds, three cupfuls of raisins and three cupfuls of sugar; cook until the mixture thickens—about thirty minutes. Add the almonds just at the last, scald them well and pour the conserve into glasses. Seal with paraffin when cold.
Cheese Spread.—Put two cupfuls of milk into a double boiler; when hot add two teaspoonfuls of salt, one-half cupful of flour, mixed well with four tablespoonfuls of butter, add one pound of cream cheese cut fine, cook until smooth, beating well. The addition of a little chopped pepper or pimento will vary the flavor. Spread on buttered bread or wafers, or use as a sandwich filling.
Drop Cakes.—Cream one-half cupful of butter, add gradually, while beating constantly, one cupful of sugar, then add two well-beaten eggs, two squares of melted chocolate, one cupful of chopped almonds, one-fourth of a teaspoonful of salt, one-half teaspoonful of vanilla, two-thirds of a cupful of bread flour. Beat well and drop by spoonfuls on a buttered baking sheet about two inches apart. Bake in a moderate oven.
Buttercup Jelly.—Soak one-half of a box of gelatin in one-half cupful of cold water. Mix the beaten yolks of three eggs with a pint of boiling water and pour over the gelatin. When dissolved add one cupful of sugar, one cupful of orange juice and the juice of a lemon. Strain, mold and serve when cold with whipped cream.
Spoon Corn Bread.—Take one cupful of cornmeal, scalded with boiling water, add one pint of sweet milk, one-half cupful of flour, two tablespoonfuls each of sugar and melted butter, two eggs well beaten, one teaspoonful of baking powder, a little salt. Beat well and bake in a well-greased baking dish. Serve from the dish.

Soak one-half pound of crustless bread in as much milk as it will absorb; add four beaten eggs, four tablespoonfuls of sugar, four tablespoonfuls of warm butter, one-fourth of a pound of boiled and grated chestnuts, and a dusting of cinnamon. When well-mixed add the cherries, pour into a buttered shallow pan, brush generously with butter, sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon, and bake slowly in a moderate oven. Serve with a cupful of hot chocolate.
Luncheon Eggs.—Wash and chop one-fourth of a pound of mushrooms; melt one tablespoonful of butter in a saucepan, add the mushrooms and stir until all the moisture is evaporated; add one tablespoonful of flour, blend well, then add one-half cupful of chicken stock, one-fourth of a teaspoonful of salt, and a little pepper; let boll two minutes. Cut in halves six hard-cooked eggs, remove the yolks and mix them with the mushroom sauce. Fill the eggs with this mixture and set them into a baking dish, surround with tomato sauce and heat thoroughly. Just before serving place a fillet of cardine on each stuffed egg. Serve from the baking dish.
Sardine Salad.—Skin and bone a dozen sardines, add a cupful of mashed, hard-cooked egg yolks, two tablespoonfuls each of chopped olives and celery, a pinch of dry mustard, and lemon juice to molsten. Mix and form into balls, roll in boiled rice. Arrange around a mound of stuffed olives and serve garnished with roses of mayonnaise.
A good breakfast dish is buttered toast served with hot stewed tomatoes, seasoned well with butter, salt and pepper. The tomatoes will have a better flavor if well-cooked with the seasoning and add a little water while cooking.
Horseradish Sauce.—Whip one-fourth of a cupful of heavy cream, add three tablespoonfuls of fresh grated horseradish, one tablespoonful of vinegar, one-fourth teaspoonful of Serve on baked ham.

Glace Tomato Salad.—Dissolve one-eighth of a box of gelatine in a little cold water. Measure half a can of tomatoes, put through a sieve to remove seeds. Season with pepper and salt, heat until boiling, then pour over the gelatine. Put into cups or molds to harden. Remove and place on lettuce leaves with a spoonful of mayonnaise on top of each.
Baked Apple Salad.—Choose a good-sized apple of good variety, such as the Northern Spy. Bake until well done and the skin is loose from the apple. When cool remove the skin and stuff the apple center with nuts. Serve with whipped cream or on lettuce with mayonnaise dressing.
Fruit Salad.—Cut in dice three mellow apples, remove the pulp from three oranges. Blanch a cupful of almonds and shred them, dice one cupful of pineapple. Mix all these ingredients and serve on lettuce with a mayonnaise dressing. Garnish with halves of walnut meats and candied cherries.
Celery and nuts cut fine, using one half as much nuts in measure as celery, add French dressing, let stand for an hour and serve on lettuce.
Lily Salad.—Cut hard-bolled egg whites into petal-shaped pieces, leaving the yolk perfectly whole. Rub each yolk with butter, mustard and vinegar, mixed well. Serve on beds of cress or cooked spinach with mayonnaise for dressing.
Chestnut Satad.—Mix a little sweet cream into a cream cheese with some finely-chopped sweet green pepper. Divide into pieces and roll in cracker crumbs that have been browned. Shape in the form of chestnut burrs and insert a cooked chestnut in each. Serve with mayonnaise.
The parsnip is especially good served with boiled meats. Sliced or sliced cooked parsnips are very good baked in a white sauce as are escultoped potatoes.
