Metropolis Weekly Gazette

METROPOLIS WEEKLY GAZETTE Atlanta, Ga —A Negro representicg himself as a refugee, from Tulsa, Okla., using the name of W. F. Rogers, is going, through the country fleeching the Colored people out of money, automobile service and other considerations. The Colored people ought to be on the lookout in every city for such a character and the quicker he is arrested is better for the sympathetic public. He is a brown skin man, 5 feet tall, weighing 150 pounds, well educated and a gold tooth in the left side of his mouth. Mob Violence Strikes at Root of Civilization Rome, Ga.—Bishop Frederick F. Reese, of the Episcopal church, of this state, in a talk before the local Kiwanis club, urged that lynching stop in this state at once and forever. He said that mob violence strikes at the root of our civilization and is a crime against the dignity of Georga and its sovereignty. Bishop Reese indorsed the statements made in Governor Dorsey's pamphlet and advised a better attitude towards the Colored people, better counsel and better education. Things cannot continue as they are in the Negro situation. The bishop earnestly asserted, and an immediate change is necessary.—Ex. Henry A. Brown May Not Hang Attorney General Intimates That Third Reprieve May Be Granted. Baltimore, Md.—A possibility that Henry A. Brown, the Colored man who was convicted of the murder of Miss Harriett M. Kavanaugh of Buffalo, a nurse at the Naval Academy Hospital, will not be hanged, although sentenced, is deduced from explanations made at the office of Attorney General Daugherty in Washington in giving reasons for the two reprieves granted to Brown by President Harding. According to W. Frank Gibbs, assistant to the Attorney General, the testimony of several important witnesses is conflicting in essential details and raises a serious doubt as to the Negro's guilt. Mr Gibbs said the fate of Brown depended largely on the findings of James A. Finch, attorney in charge of pardons of the department. Mr. Finch is now reviewing the testimony, and his decision probably will be made public in a few days. It is understood that Mr. Finch, in a letter to Governor Ritchie, who asked that the decision be expedited, refuses to promise that he will not recommend another reprieve and it is thought that, in view of the conflicting testimony and the fact that Brown was convicted largely on circumstantial evidence. Mr. Finch may recommend executive clemency. Mr. Gibbs said there was no disposition on the part of the Department of Justice to show Brown any special consideration nor to railroad him to the gallows to satisfy public clamor. An Unusual Sale Mr. Homer Roberts, the west's only Negro automobile broker and one of the most successful agents in that line regardless of color in the country made the unusual and inspiring sale of three beautiful Haynes limousines at one time to three of Kansas City's best known chauffeurs, one to Cal Cowan, one to Charles Adams and one to Jessee Bell all to be delivered next Saturday. Dealers down town say this is the largest individual one day sale made this year representing an aggregate of $13,650.-The Kansas City Sun.

Lightening Kills Son Of Ku Klux Klan Member Federalsburg, Md.—During a severe electrical storm which passed over this section recently, George Donovan, 16-year-old son of Mr. Mrs. George Donovan, near Chestnut Grove was instantly killed by lightning. The boy, with a younger brother and sister, were standing on the porch of their home watching the storm when he was struck. The other children were stunned, but not hurt. The parents are in a state of collapse due to the tragedy. The father of the boy was a member of the local Ku Klux Klan. LYNCHING ON THE INCREASE; WOMEN SUFFER TOO. Tuskegee, Ala.—There were thirty-six lynching in the United States during the first six months of the year, twenty-four more than the number recorded during the same period in 1920, according to a report issued recently by the department of records and research of Tuskegee In titute. Lynchings during the first half of this year, included two white men and twenty-four Colored, two of the latter being women, the record said.

Yours Respectfully, MAGGIE B. TAYLOR, President. Be Ye Sure Your Sins Will Find You Oun Let the Baptist Gauntlet Drive (Dr.) C. C. Phillips, Golconda First of all, Dr. McCrary, we wish to extend to you our feeble, but our sincere compliment you paid us in the last week's Gazette Tho it was a kiss and a kick at the same time, of which we suppose, either had its deired effect. Yes it it is true we have done considerable amount of writing, but so happens that it has for the most part, been for the doctrine and our friends, and the editor not excepted. And under similar circumstance we stand ready to drive the gauntlet again. We have made mistakes no doubt, we are not perfect, but we have nothing at any time that we would not do again under similar circumstances. Now, what we wish to say is that the East Mt. Olive meets on Tuesday before the 2nd Sunday in August 1921 with the Galilee Baptist church Carrier Mills, of which Elder H. J. Norden, is pastor. You are respectfully requested to be present. Elders Norment C. W. Cole, French, Parnell, Carter, Moody and a number of others who are equally welcome as yourself, but time and space forbids us to name. We wish to make the two Associations East Mt. Olive and Mt. Olive the strongest organizations in the State both financially and spiritually, like the two S. S. Orgaizations perhaps as many as 45 S. S., reported, not a hundred scholars reported by a single S. S., but above $500, was realized as close as times are. Last but not least it will be well to inform the Pastists in Southern Illinois and elsewhere that the Federal Charter that The Dr. Morris Convention has been loving so fondly, has about been side-stepped and the Women's Board of Washington Training School have gotten cut another Charter to operate the School and The Publishing Board has also gotten out another Charter to operate their Board, and so it goes. It will of course make the public wonder who it is that they did not amend the Charters of the Boards so as to give the Federal Charter the entire control of the Boards. It split the Convention and now they are setting it aside. This is a confession of this error, say what they may. OBITUARY Sister Ora Belle Smith-Caldwell daughter of of Garfield and Della Smith, was born at Mounds, Ill., Aug. 27th 1900. Died July 11, 1921, age 20 years 11 monhs, 15 days.

"JUDGE LYNCH STILL HOLDING COURT" Stastistics comsilled by the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute reveal a sharp increase in the number of lychings which have taken place in the first six months of 1921 over the correpondg period last year. "Thirty six lychings are reported in 1921 against 12 in the first six months of 1920, 29 for the first six 1919, and 33 for the first six months of 1918. "The 1921 lychings are confined entirely to souther border state, and only two, Texas and Virginia, escape the stigma. "Mississippi with 10 and Georgia with 9 head the list, while the others are Alabama 1, Arkansas 4, Florida 4, Kentucky 1, Louisiana 2, Missouri 1, North Carolina 2, South Carolina 1, Tennessee. "Tennessee returns to the lyching column after an absence of a year. Of those lynched 34 were Negroes and two were whites. Two of the Negroes were women. Eleven were chorged with criminal attacks upon white women. "These figures are disheartening. We are retrogressing. If the superiority of the white race is to be maintained, it must be maintained by respect for the law. White government must vindicate itself by dealing out even justice to all. White skins do not make white men. They must be white in character and integrity. The stigma of lynching must be eradicated. The remedy is education."

There is only one way to cure cartarrh haeafness, and that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhral Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tubes. When this tube inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever.

By virtue of an execution issued out of the office of the Clerk of the Circuit Court of Massac County, in favor of Gip Husbands and against Ben Stone, on the 8th day of October 1919, I, Oscar Miller sheriff of Massac County, on the 16th day of December 1919 levied upon the following described real estate: "A parcel of ground in the city of Brookport, Massac county, in the State of Illinois, with a froage of fifty feet, running back between parallel lines one hundred and thirty feet, beginning fifty feet off the West side of a certain parcel of ground 200 X 130 feet in Block No. One (1) in Margrave and Chapman's addition to the City of Brookport, Ill., said parcel of ground being 150 feet from the Southwest corner of the John Burgess lot; thence run North 130 feet; thence run West 50 feet; thence run South 130 feet; thence run East 50 feet to the place of the beginning, said premises being the same ground conveyed by E. Moore, by deed June 2nd 1917 and recorded on Page 479 in Deed Book "33" in the office of the Circuit Clerk of Massac County Illinois." Notice is hereby given that I will on the 22nd day of August, 1921 (being Monday) at the hour of 10 O'clock a.m., at the front door of the Courthouse in the city of Metropolis, sell at public vendue, for cash in hand, the above described real estate, to the highest an 1 best bidder at said sale.

There's a crime that carries its own punishment—New York Herald MICROBE HAS MADE TROUBLE "Miracle Bacillus" Really Quite Simple in Operation, but Has Not Been Understood. One of the most curiously interesting of microbes is the "miracle buellius"—known to science as B. prodigiosus. In its time it has been responsible for a whole lot of excitement. In former days it used to happen once in a while that communion bread developed on its surface stains of what looked like blood. The superstitious took it to be really blood, attributing the phenomenon to miracle. Today it is known that such stains, which sometimes appear on eggs or in milk, are produced by a colormaking bacterium, incidentally to the process of feeding upon the substance. They merely indicate the presence of colonies of a species of bacillus that is now identified, "cultures" of which can easily be made. When stains of the kind were found on food in former times, they were commonly attributed to witches or some other supernatural agency. The bacillus in question, feeding on decomposing material scattered over the ground, has been responsible for many tales of "bloody rains", which were regarded as portents of evil happenings to come. People in earlier days were less addicted to the habit of bathing than is now customary, and sometimes crimson spots appeared on parts of their persons where perspiration and dirt had accumulated. These were very alarming, being suggestive of "bloody sweats," but what the sufferer really needed was a good scrub.—Philadelphia Ledger. BIRDS ATTACK COMMON ENEMY Feathered Creatures Gather in Flock to Drive Away and Punish Marauding Squirrel. I was approaching casually a small copse, being attracted by the chatter of many birds. I got as near as I could without disturbing them and saw a squirrel being attacked by six missel thrushes and two jackdaws. Every time it climbed a few feet two or more birds would swoop down and flap their wings at the terrified animal. This continued for about three minutes. As I got closer the commotion ceased and the exhausted squirrel scrambled up to a fork in the tree, where it lay motionless, apparently completely out of breath. A careful search revealed no thrushes' nests, but twenty yards away the jackdaws had a nest in an old tree. I wonder if any of your readers could give an explanation of this attack on an inoffensive little animal.—G. Fox Rules, Osborne, Isle of Wight. The little animal is not quite so inoffensive as supposed, and the birds know it. Squirrels whenever they have a chance will help themselves both to eggs and young birds, so that naturally when detected they get "mobbed."—Edl—From the Field. Dollar Sign In Brazil. The monetary unit in Brazil is the Portuguese real, though in theory only, for no such coin exists; hence in practice only the plural reis is used and the unit is readily the milreis, or one thousand reis. For some years the milreis had remained at the fixed value of 15 to the English pound, or about 3,250 reis to the American dollar. In larger transactions the unit is the conto, one million reis. Gold is never seen in circulation in Brazil. From the milreis to the conto there are paper notes, silver coins from five hundred to two thousand reis and nickel pieces of four, two and one hundred, the last the totoo of popular parlance. The Brazilian places his dollar sign after the milreis and before the reis, so that 3$250 means the equivalent of a whole dollar and the man who pays $500 for a newspaper or a small glass of ice cane juice does not feel that he has been unusually extravagant, at least if he has lived enough in Brazil to get the local point of view. Street Crossings in Scarlet. The employment of red bands to indicate street crossings, the advantages of which were demonstrated in recent experiments, is still under discussion. An early proposal for painting the crossings with red lead has, however, been abandoned because of the insufficient wearing qualities of the mixture, and the municipal administration has ordered red sandstone for crossings in Alsace which will provide durable safety zones showing where pedestrians may venture without risk. It is suggested that it would be advisable to follow the example of America in drawing up strict regulations which would make the drivers of vehicles responsible in all cases for accidents occurring on the red band. —From Le Peit Parisien. "Fuel for Nothing." The case of a motor ship that trades between Europe and America without having to pay for fuel is mentioned by Motor Ship. The Buenos Aires, running between San Francisco and Scandinavia, loads up with 1,500 tons of fuel oil at San Francisco, sells 800 tons at Stockholm, and returns to America with some oil left in her tanks, having used 600 tons out of the 1,500 tons of her supply in her engines. She pays 7,500 pounds for her oil in San Francisco and sells 800 tons of it at Stockholm for 8,000 pounds. The fuel is carried mostly in the double bottom, and therefore does not detract from the ship's cargo-carrying capacity. Mme. Nollie Part nt for Mme. C.

The village is Chebrapurjit, the rainiest town to take and presumably in the world. Its annual rainfall is something over 450 inches—say, fifteen times as much as London. Chebrapurjit stands on a plateau, overlooking the plain of Sylhet, and it is 4,455 feet above sea level.—Westminster Gazette. Thought and Kindness Fest. Thought and Kindness Post.
