Saint Paul Minnesota KNIGHTS OF PYTHIA ANNUAL SESSION IN Report of Realty Holding of Pythians Considered As Big Feature of Meetings. ENCAMPMENT PROVES TO BE BIGGEST SINCE WAR Mayor Welcomes Pythians to Georgetown—Providence To Get Next Meeting. (Associated Negro Press.) Georgetown, Ky., Aug. 11—Featuring the twenty-ninth annual session of the Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias which closed here were the reports from Grand Chancellor, J. M. Mundy, Dr. E. E. Underwood, President of the Pythian Mutual Industrial Association and the biennial encampment, under the command of Brigadier General W. W. Wilson. The mammoth undertaking toward which the energies of the entire order have been directed for a number of years, has been the big realty venture represented in the Pythian Temple at Tenth and Chestnut Sts., in Louisville. The very existence of the order has been wrapped up in the success of the temple which is valued at more than a quarter of a million dollars. At this year's session, the reports from the chief officers show that the entire indebtedness on the temple has been practically liquidated and in September of this year the last dollar owed will be paid. The biggest encampment since the World War was held at the Scott County Fair Grounds, one of the most beautiful spots in the famous Blue Grass region. The parade thru the principal streets of the city on the third day of the session was witnessed by thousands of spectators from all parts of the states. Participating in this parade were all of the companies of the Kentucky Brigade, companies of the Knights of Omar, local lodges, grand lodge and grand court officers in automobiles and the Lexington Military band. Grand Chancellor J. M. Mundy and Grand Keeper of Records and Seal W. R. Dudley were re-elected with a splendid corps of subordinate officers. A. L. Garvinnof, Louisville, S. H. George, of Paducah, P.

The degree of Past Grand Chancellor was conferred upon Attorney W. H. Wright, distinguished race capitalist. Kentucky's senators, Richard P. Ernst and A. O. Stanley, were urged to support the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Aged Man Slashes Throat Attempting To Commit Suicide Fred W. Hatchett, age 55, attempted suicide last Friday afternoon in his room at 582 Robert street, by slashing his throat with a razor. He was found by William Lee, 606 Robert street, who notified the police. At the city hospital it was said that Hatchett would recover. It is believed that despondency was the cause of his actions.

U.N.I.A.Sessions Attract Interest Marcus Garvey "Carrying-On" Is Attracting Large Crowds In New York City. (Associated Negro Press.) New York, Aug. 11—Marcus Garvey, seemingly undaunted by the bitter arraignment of Willian Pickens, Alderman George W. Harris, and others, because of his views with reverence to the Ku Klux, is "Carrying on" here, attracting wide attention by the annual international convention of the U. N. I. A., which will last throughout the month of August. His supreme excellency, Mareus Garvey, "provisional president of Africa," and president general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, enthroned on a dias and clad in a long velvet gown with red and green stripes, called to order the annual convention of his association and proceeded with the preliminary work of reclaiming Africa for the Colored man. A few hours later Garvey changed to a resplendent black navy uniform, adorned with red stripes and gold braid, topped off with a gold covered admiral's hat, marched at the head of his followers in a parade through Harlem. Directly behind him in the line of march, the potentate and supreme commissioner of the U. N. N. L. A., Gabriel Johnson, of Liberia, flanked by James R. Diggs, chaplain general, and such lesser luminaries as the consul general, surgeon general, and other general officers of the movement. Trailing behind these dignitaries were the plain people. But few were so plain that they did not appear in uniform, and most of the uniforms, black, red, or green, had gold braid, and were not sparingly decorated. STRIKE CAUSES WITTY St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 11—The railroad strike brings forth humorous incidents. A white collared official gives out the following: "A Negro upon being told by an official not to be alarmed as there was no reason for fear replied: "Boss man, if dem strikers come in heath, the only man that's gain' to git hurt am de one dat gits in front uv me goin' out." "Another colored worker upon being told by pickets that he had three minutes in which to vanish, replied: What's you all goin to do wif dem two and a half minutes you got left?" ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, AUGUST 12, 1922. Pastor Charged With Forgery; Denies Guilt Rev. Joseph W. Harris, pastor of the Memorial Baptist church, who was surrendered into court last Wednesday by his attorney J. Louis Ervin to answer the charge of forgery brought by Perry Phillips, one of the members of his congregation, declares he is the victim of a controversy which has been going on in the congregation the past year. Rev. Mr. Harris waived hearing on the forgery charge and was held to the grand jury by Judge J. W. Finehout, his bail being fixed at $200 which he gave. Mr. Ervin declared that Rev. Mr. Harris had taken charge of the finances of the church since he became pastor and had done valuable service for the congregation. The attorney declared the forgery charge was merely a result of the fight among members of the congregation. Liberia Believed To Be Countryof Chance Liberia Believed To Be Countryof Chance "Liberia's Resources are Beyond Dreams;" Maj. Anderson Tells Appomattox Club. (Associated Negro Press.) Chicago, Aug. 11—"Liberia offers a wonderful opportunity to the practical men of America," said Major Anderson, commandant of the frontier forces of the Liberian government, who with Mr. C. C. Spaulding, Sec.Treasurer of the North Carolina Mutual Insurance Co., of Durham, N. C., was a guest of honor at a banquet Friday night at the Appomattox Club. Continuing, Major Anderson said, "It's resources and possibilities are beyond your wildest dreams; hundreds of thousand of manogany trees, oil, iron, with yet little prospecting done all waiting for development. We need artisans and business men, but the Marcus Garvey invasion is not welcome. Of professional men there are plenty. Monrovia is teeming with lawyers. But if we could set one of these beautiful drug stores of yours down in Liberia in one day its stock would be exhausted. The 8,000 Liberian descendants of Americans and the 1,500,000 natives who live in the interior form a nucleus which can be welded into a progressive nation of great power and usefulness." Mr. Spaulding, who is making his first visit in Chicago, spoke vigorously of the opportunity before the race in America and particularly in Chicago, whose progress he said amazed him and where he would like to live, but remarked after hearing Major Anderson, that he would transfer his allegiance to Africa. FORMER BOXER SHOT BY MEDIATOR IN QUARREL (Associated Negro Press.) Chicago, Aug. 11—John Pate, a pugilist trainer and former prize fighter, was shot in the abdomen but not seriously wounded when he resented the remarks of a colored man concerning his companion. A Yellow Taxicab driver interceded in behalf of the colored man during the argument. When Pate struck at the driver the latter drew a revolver and fired. Sidney Williams Wins First Prize in Piano Contest Sidney Williams, popular pianist in the Twin Cities, played "The Shiek" last Friday evening at the Princess Theatre in such grand style that he was awarded the first prize of $25 in a jazz piano contest.

RIOT FEARED WHEN MAN IS MOBBED NEAR HOLTON Judge Announces Call for Special Session of Grand Jury to Examine Lynching. (Associated Negro Press.) Macon, Ga., Aug. 11—"Lynch Law Must Go." They are still at it in Georgia, which seems destined to sink to much lower levels in the scale of civilization. An extra heavy guard was ready here to be thrown around the Bibb county jail to protect three men held in connection with the murder several months ago of A. L. Allgood, a street car conductor. The guard was assembled early when the police received word that several hundred persons had gathered in Central City park and were planning an attack on the county jail. Later reports said, however, that the crowd had dispersed without making any sort of demonstration. The precautionary steps followed a day of excitement in Macon and uneasiness on the part of the authorities, who expressed fears of a serious race clash growing out of the lynching at Holton, near here, of John Glover, charged with the murder of Deputy Sheriff Walter C. Byrd, Glover was taken from an Atlanta train at Griffin and shot to death. WILL PROBE LYNCHING Judge W. E. H. Searcy of the Monroe circuit announced that he would called a special session of the grand jury at Forsyth for the fourth Monday in August to investigate the lynching of Glover. New Yorkers To Go To League Meeting Large New York City Delegation Expected to Attend Business League Meeting. (Associated Negro Press.) New York, Aug. 11. Considerable interest is being manifested here this year in the coming session of the Business League at Norfolk. It is probable that the largest group of New Yorkers who have attended recently will be present. President Motion has announced that the Norfolk meeting of the Business League would get down to "bed rock" principles of practical, constructive service. The program this year is so arranged that there will be some feature of interest and help to every business man no matter in what line of activity he might be engaged. Announcement has already been made of reduced railroad rates for this special meeting. ST.

Douglass Shrine Minute August 12th Silent Prayer For Douglass Shrine Nation To Pause One Minute August 12th to posterity. "The Douglass Home is a great Colored Shrine, because it was the home of the greatest black man Maryland has ever produced, and one of the greatest in the history of the nation. "The Women of the country under the leadership of Mrs. Mary Talbott, restored this home to its former glory and propose to set it apart as a great memorial to the great Douglass. At noon on that day, there should be a moment of silent prayer observed all over the country, and every colored person should thank God for Frederick Douglass, dedicating himself to the principles which Douglass espoused and for which he gave his life blood. --- (Associated Negro Press.) Chicago, Aug. 11—William Allen White, nationally famed daily newspaper editor of Emporia, Kansas, in a syndicated article, published recently in a number of daily papers, told the "white people where to get off," so far as "poking fun" at Colored people is concerned. Said Mr. White: "At Westfield, N. J. a Colored golf club has been established and a nine-hole course laid out. A Colored colony there seems to warrant the golf course. The item that this course is laid out will cause a million giggles to sizzle across the country. Cartoonists will make funny pictures of it. Vaudeville artists will do sketches about it. Something exquisitely funny seems to excite the white race when it sees the Colored race doing things which are ordinary parts of the day's work and play to the white people. It is as though the elephant should drive an auto or a horse play the plano. "The reason for this visibility of the white man at the black man's human activities is obvious, and it is no credit to the white man. He thinks it funny to see the black man doing things that normal human beings do, because the white man does not think of his dark-skinned fellow traveler on the planet as a human companion. The white man considers any Colored man—black, brown, red, yellow, or maroon—as an animal. The anthropological conceit of the white man is ponderous, unbelievable, vastly amusing to the Gods. "Why should not the black man play golf if his economic status gives him leisure for golf? Why should he not have a motor car and a country house if he can afford it? Why giggle at the normal activities of men whose skin differs from our own? Something of the same psychological reason is being the fact that we middle-class people make merry over the fact that the worker in the mines or shops or furnaces wears a silk shirt or rents a house with a bath or rides to work in a car. Why shouldn't he? Is he an elephant doing stunts? Is he a horse playing the piano? What's the joke if he develops the same desires and aspirations that we do? And who in God's name are we, anyway? Mr. George R. Manning, City Editor of the Bulletin, returned last Sunday from a two weeks vacation trip to Seattle, where he visited his parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Hobbs. On Tuesday evening, August 2, thirty young people of Seattle surprised the City Editor with a pleasant dancing party in his honor.

(By Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Aug. 11—One minute of Prayer, at Noon, Saturday, August twelfth, throughout the United States has been proposed by the "AFROAMERICAN" of Baltimore, during the dedication of the Frederick Douglass home, in Anacostia, District of Columbia. The proposal has been endorsed throughout the land, and Colored Americans everywhere will bow their heads in silent prayer at that time. Speaking editorially, the AFROAMERICAN says: "On Saturday, August 12, the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs will meet in annual session at "Cedar Hill," Anacostia, D. C., and dedicate there the home of Frederick Douglass to the nation and A Prize Winner MISS ORA VIOLA JOHNSON MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY PRICE, 5 CENTS MURDERER OF 4- YEAR-OLD CHILD CONFESSES GUILT MURDERER OF 4- YEAR-OLD CHILD CONFESSES GUILT Minneapolis District Court Judge Says It's a Pleasure To Sentence Slayer. BELIEVES JUSTICE IS TOO GENEROUS IN CASE Declares Death Penalty Should Be Slayer's Punishment for Crime Committeed. When sentencing Andrew Jackson, confessed murderer to state's prison at Stillwater to serve a life sentence at hard labor, in a Minneapolis district court last Tuesday, Judge W. W. Bardwell declared it was a pleasure for him to sentence such men as Jackson for such crimes as he had committed. "It affords me great pleasure to sentence a man like you to the penitentiary for life," the judge told Jackson, "but it would afford me a greater pleasure to sentence you to death. I am sorry the laws of this state do not provide a death penalty for crimes such as yours." Jackson pleaded guilty to the murder of little Myrtle Williams, 4 year-old daughter of Mrs. LaBelle Williams, 315 Fourteenth avenue, south on July 17. On July 18, the child's body was found on the Mississippi river bank between 4th and 5th avenues south. She has been strangled to death. Jackson arrest came after a playmate of Myrtle told the police the little girl had gone to the store with a man to buy candy. While in the Minneapolis, jail, Jackson was watched very closely. He started to serve his life sentence at Stillwater Wednesday. Charges Slander; Sues For $5.000 Mrs. Maud Weber Sues Mrs. Dovie Welsh for $5,000 For False Accusations. Charging Dovie Welsh with maliciously slandering her and with attempting to break up her son's wedding, Mrs. Maud Weber today filed suit for $5,000 damages. The complaint was filed by Atty. J. Ervin and charges that while in the church at the wedding of her son, Dr. E. A. Weber, June 3, in presence of 30 persons the defendant called attention to a butterfly ornament she wore in her hair and accused Mrs. Weber of stealing it from her. "You see the butterfly Maud has in her hair? It is mine and she stole it," the defendant is accused of saying during the wedding ceremony. Mrs. Weber also charges the defendant with repeating the accusation numerous times since June 3, and July 4 she is charged with saying, "I tried to break up the wedding, Maud stole my butterfly." Mrs. Weber asserts she has been held up to ridicule and has been greatly humiliated by the remarks.

Very recently our advertising solicitor while making calls at various business houses discovered that the attitude toward the Colored buyer is very friendly and that in most cases those who receive even the smallest percentage of Colored business stand ready to invite more of our business at almost every opportunity. We naturally appreciate this attitude and apparent effort to secure our business. This is often true even where the Colored man is only a casual buyer. On the other hand, we know of business houses situated where the bulk of their trade is Colored who, when approached in regard to advertising in a Colored newspaper are so unfair as to point-blank refuse to consider the proposition. As a matter of fact every business house in the community which the newspapers serves reaps some benefit directly or indirectly from it and for no less reason is supposed to contribute something to its suport. The white man who gets rich off of Colored patronage and in return is not willing to spend a few dollars to invite and keep his patronage by advertising through the columns of the Colored newspaper is certainly not entitled to Colored support—your trade. Firms who advertise in this paper or any other Colored paper besides inviting your business are helping support a race institution and should receive your patronage. They deserve it. Glance over the columns of this paper and see who advertises for your business and see where to spend your money. Each of our advertisers will give you a dollar's worth for a dollar spent. It is your duty to patronize those firms who patronize your firms. It's fair to them, to you and to us. Begin it today. the National Negro Business League hold Va., this week, our local branch of the co- sitting next Thursday night, after six mors to us that the responsibility for the branch may be attributed to inefficient lead our contention, we hope that at the right something will be done to adjust m organization to its duties and possibility organization composed of persons in bus While the National Negro Business League holds its meeting at Norfolk, Va., this week, our local branch of the organization is to hold a meeting next Thursday night, after six months of inactivity. It appears to us that the responsibility for the inactivity of the local branch may be attributed to inefficient leadership. If we are right in our contention, we hope that at the meeting next Thursday night something will be done to adjust matters and to awaken the organization to its duties and possibilities. We want and need an organization composed of persons in business. THE GET-TOGETHER MOVEMENT (By Horace S.

And twenty-millions of loyal people who have built our churches lodges and schools, and are loyally supporting our magazines and newspapers. Yet our group today is the economic pray of the country; not because they cannot help the situation, for they can. Any group of people who can build one-hundred-thousand ($100,000) churches and who can control one-hundred-thousand dollar ($100,000) lodges and schools is a group that should at least think and study about economic efficiency and control, and find a way to operate and control one-hundred-thousand dollar ($100,000) factories and stores, in which such a noble people might be given an opportunity to work. A new idea of the future activities of these well established institutions is at hand. The time is not far distant when the young people will demand that our lodges have one password only; that password should be "No more Faking." Our gatherings should be modernized and our papers and public speakers should spend more time talking about what we have not done. Find the sleeper at the switch in all these lines so that we may become alive to these conditions and bring about a much needed change. In order that we do effective work, let us have in each city of the country a committee to be known as the "Committee of One-hundred," composed of fifty men and fifty women, whose duty it shall be to make a study of these questions. The committee shall also make a study of the dollar, its power to uplift or tear down. It shall also create plans that will help our group to get together, and to be masters instead of slaves in the economical world. Then and not until then, will the God of Hope be our God and we his people. any of us are chronic kickers. Let us stop it a school of procedure—boosting. I want better Negro enterprises?

Let us stop it and try the more beneficial method of procedure—boosting. "Do we want better Negro enterprises? Are we desirous of seeing our people have equal rights? Do we want to have strong institutions that will compare favorably with the organizations of any other American group? If we do we have got to stop knocking, and turn that energy, thus wasted, into more effective channels—namely, become a booster. "Everyone of us want to know that our race is prospering. We like to point with pride to race concerns that are big and making progress. Then, why knock them? Wouldn't it be more consistent with the desire to help our business, to boost them instead of knocking? Does it appear more reasonable to help with kicks, than it does with practical help? Give to them your whole hearted and undivided support, this would be more within keeping with your desire to help than you can possibly prove or manifest by constantly kicking them. For in the final analysis the successful Negro organization is yours. The greater they become, the more help they will be to you and to your posterity. Therefore, don't knock, boost them. All of their policies may not exactly please you. No one nor any organization has ever satisfied everyone—for the simple reason, that none of us understand, fully, all of the obstacles and difficulties under which that individual or organization is working "We should keep uppermost in our minds, the fact, that institutions which belong to the race are a part of us, and, therefore, it is our paramount duty to give to them all of the help that it is possible for us to render. Because it is ours, and will be of service to us in proportion to its growth and size. However, they cannot grow, they will be unable to help us, unless we are willing to give to them our aid by consistently boosting them in every possible way. "Every successful Negro institution is a great help to us as a race, whether it is a church, school, bank, hotel, factory, newspaper or what not, it is a direct benefit to the whole group. This may not seem true at first thought, but when you realize the interdependence of man and how each group is a direct help or hindrance to the other, you will agree that every successful group of Negroes make it the more easy for a larger group to gain success and more justice. "All institutions, more or less, need criticism. However, after you have given your thought on the subject, throw away the hammer and boost for larger, bigger and stronger Negro business by giving to them your support. In such unity there is a glorious future awaiting the institutions conducted by our own people. DONT KNOCK. BOOST!" OUR BUSINESS LEAGUE THROW AWAY THE HAMMER Philadelphia Tribune. The Friendly Path By Walter L. Robinson MAN is in the world to overcome himself." How often have you thought of this when finding fault with the world in general because you thought your luck was hard? It's a safe venture to guess that most unhappy persons never even consider their own positions from this angle. Too many blame others for their own misfortunes when they could find the fault at their own doors. Too many consider their luck bad when it is better than they deserve. If they recognized their own short-comings or tried to overcome them when acknowledged, they'd frequently overcome their worst handicaps. If one starts out to get somewhere he isn't likely to reach his goal as quickly as he desires if he sits by the side of his pathway and hopes for some miracle to happen which will bring him to the desired destination without climbing up the hill. Once in a while a kind motorist will overtake the lazy loiterer and give him a lift. But the chances are against such good fortune when the pathway follows an upgrade course. For few stop to pick up passengers while trying to reach the top on "high." The same rule applies all along the path of life. Just as one is likely to meet disappointment if he depends on a lift by the road, is he almost certain to find his progress lagging if he waits for his fellowmen to shove him ahead. Those who become disgruntled with their lot usually need to remember that their own indifference, inaction or the over-estimation of their proper sphere, are the greatest stumbling-blocks in their paths. If one helps himself a little, the world will always help him more. (Copyright by the Wheeler Syndicate, Inc.) WHY? IS THERE "SILK" ON AN EAR OF CORN THE substance which we term "silk" on an ear of corn before it has been husked and cleaned is really the father of the corn itself, because each little grain on the ear has received sustenance—has been "fertilized" and enabled to reach its full growth—by means of the threads of silk-like construction. Each ear of corn is composed of three principal parts: The grains which grow on a cob, the silk and the husk. The function of the latter is merely of a protective nature. It keeps the driving rain and the burning sun from damaging the tender kernels or grains, which are the seeds of the plant. But each one of these grains must receive its supply of pollen-powder if it is to develop into a large, juicy, tempting morsel or if it is to grow into a fully developed seed which, in turn, will produce another stalk of corn. This pollen it gets from the silken fibres which appear even before the grains themselves are well differentiated, while they are almost indistinguishable marks or ridges upon the cob. But even then it is possible to tell just how many grains of corn will appear upon the full-grown ear. To do this it is necessary only to count the strands of "silk," for each one of these fertilizes a grain and assists in bringing it to maturity. (Copyright by the Wheeler Syndicate, Inc.)

My dears, I had an excellent chat planned for you today, following up my recent discussion of skin troubles. I was going to discuss the relation of food and correct diet to the perfection of the skin. I had planned to steal the thunder of the author of an excellent little book about women's beauty and head my talk with a quotation from Hetty Green, which says "Good food is the basis of good conduct and consequently of happiness." But just as I was struggling along toward my daily labor, I happened to see a lady making such a nervous display of her many rings, that I instantly decided to talk about hands. There is nothing prettier, or more beautiful than a well-shaped, clean, quiet hand. And there is nothing more repulsive than a dirty, unkempt hand, an awkward, over ringed hand, and nothing so distracting as a nervous hand. Of course, none of us are born with Gainsborough hands these days, with slender tapering fingers, soft white palms, shell pink nails, carefully shaped, and satiny, hairless skin stretched smoothly over wrist and arm, but by the Queen of Nile, we can go a long way towards surmounting the obstacles that lay between us and Gainsborough. Cleanliness and care are two of the most potent factors. After all, the chief requirement for a pleasing hand is smooth skin, soft palm, small knuckles, and clean well-shaped nails. When you see little sister or brother, or whatever the relation is, with a thumb or finger in the mouth, stop him instantly. They will not understand now, but when they are a little older point out the luckless child who has a finger or thumb smaller than the rest, or twisted, because of the constant sucking, not to mention the protruding of displaced teeth. When the boys get together and engage in the universal sport of "cracking knuckles" stop them, for little girls sometimes join in, and none of them should have the future marred by unsightly knuckles. If they complain that the sleeve is too tight or the mittens too small, humor them, for any tightness causes poor circulation, and poor circulation causes "kitchen seclusion's hands" red and hard. And that goes for us as well as for them. I've seen my poor straying sisters who have come away with some one's else gloves, and failing to get their fingers in, have fastened them at the wrist and turned back the glove itself. There is their flesh literally bursting forth, and yet they wonder why their hands don't look like Mrs. Jones! A little home care will save you many a dollar at the manicure's if you keep the hands clean, the flesh firm with massaging and scrubbing, firm with massaging and scrubbing, the cuticle away from the nail, the nails shapely and pliable. And, please don't let me see you on the street car gouging underneath the nail, with a tooth pick, a steel file, orange stick, or any such sharp instrument. Do not scrap the nails. Don't wash the hands in too warm water, or in too cold. It is well to avoid extremes in caring for any part of the body, the. Don't wear gloves to bed, for that is hard on the circulation. If you are using lotions at night, apply them before you're sleepy, so that they may dry by the time you are in bed. And no matter how nice your hand is be careful just how you try to display it. Fluttering birds may be all right and fluttering angels may be all right, but excuse me from fluttering hands. Don't sit up and twist your fingers and twirl them, and make everyone else dreadfully exasperated at your state. Practice Del-sarte, and acquire grace. At any rate remember that a hand quietly reposed is always to be desired rather than the always busy fingers. If you address me at the home office. I will gladly send a set of exercises for inducing grace, also some simple home lotions that will do wonders for your hand's appearance. And remember that wearing too many rings and then shutting the hand is as good a way of making callouses and blisters as grasping Mother's broom and vigorously, but indiscreetly attacking a Brussels carpet. It's all in knowing how, my dear, all in knowing how.

BAR OF ROSES By MILDRED WHITE © 1922, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate. The little house stood back from the roadside. A tiny house, indeed, but up to its doorway yellow rose shrubs bordered a path, barring against intruders. Constance, viewing the picture from the car, was delighted. "Philip," she said to the man at her side, "I will stop here to wait until you have finished your law business." Constance Dare's flance smilingly agreed. "All right, dear," he repiled Constance sank into a wide porch chair and smiled at her host, who came through the cottage door. He seated himself on the step with an apology. "I am permitted so seldom to see strangers that to talk with them is a treat. If you have stopped in the village you, no doubt, heard of the hermit?" "We did not stop in the village," answered Constance. "I accompanied a friend, who is here on a matter of law, and he has gone on to see the local attorney, who lives, I believe, further up the hill." The old man nodded. "Farther up the hill are our fine residences. Here is desolation." "Beautiful desolation!" said Constance; then eagerly leaned forward. "You were going to tell me about your—hermit life?" They were seated in the little porch when the hermit told his story. "My home, as a young man, was up the hill," he began. "There I loved and married, as I truly believed, the sweetest, truest girl in the world. The sad part is that, through all the years, she has been to me the sweetest—and will ever be. My past love could not alter, even in face of her faithlessness. It was when our boy was a little lad, twining himself about his father's heartstrings, that Eleonor left me. Her note said that love had never entered into her marriage. My money was the motive of her parents' influence—an influence that won. But now, she wrote, love had found her, and love she would not deny. "It was a poor sort of divorce that she was able to obtain from me in a state where laws are convenient; but it answered Nellie's purpose. Six months afterward she came for my boy. I loved him—so did she; there was no doubt of that—in the wreck of her life that love still bloomed a beautiful thing. So I gave my boy to her. It was the only thing that I could do when Nellie asked me. And she took him away with her to that far state where the man she cared for lived, and I never saw my son again. When I had made the property on the hill over to him, that he might inherit it only after my wife's death, I came down to live in solitude with my books—renouncing a life that had taken from me all I had and given nothing. "In a measure I am content. But I will have no small boys crossing my solitude; little boys, with all their trust in life shining in their happy faces—boys that return for a father's greeting—against these I set my bar of roses." Constance found her face wet with tears. Into the roadway swung the automobile. Philip Amsden, jumping out, came to claim his fiancee. Slowly, at his approach, the old man arose from his chair. Across the worn face flashed a white light. Philip, waiting, gazed as one fascinated, into the sorrowful eyes. "Your name?" Philip asked, sharply. In a whisper the old man gave it. "I am Philip Amsden," he said. "I thought there could be no mistake!" The young man's tone was still curt. "It was my mother who placed your picture in my room. I had no wish for it there—a father who deliberately gave up his own son. And it was only after mother's recent death that I learned of your bequest to me; my errand today was to see that it is returned. I will take no gift from a man who forswears his son." Dumbly the hermit stood. Constance put a caressing arm around each. "Philip," she said, "we have traveled down no road of chance today. We came to bring your father back to his own. To make up to him in our own home—you and I—for years of loneliness." Above her head the men looked, in sudden understanding. "How very sweet," said Constance, "the roses smell." The Trial of a Lawyer. A successful Chatauqua lecturer, a prominent attorney in his own city, has for years entertained large audiences, with the lecture. "The Trial of Jesus From a Lawyer's Standpoint." Recently he listened to the following diverting introduction from the lips of a platform manager: "I am very glad to introduce to you, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. B—, who will now entertain us with his celebrated lecture, The Trial of Jesus From a Lawyer's Standpoint." I can only imagine one lecture which might prove more interesting to this audience than the one announced. That would be 'The Trial of a Lawyer From Jesus' Standpoint.'"—Everybody's Magazine.

West is Big Feature in Winning Game At Lexington Park. Playing a superior brand of base- ball in the final game of the series with the J. Boureston team from the West Side of St. Paul, the Uptown Sanitary team came out on the big end of a three game series by win- ning Sunday's game at Lexington Park by a score of 10 to 9. A very large attendance witnessed the battle Sunday which furnished more thrills than could be seen in some big league games. ‘The outstanding feature of the ganze was the circuit clout by J. West in the first inning. One man was on base when West sent a long drive to @eep center which rolled into the corner of the park. This hit was by far the longest hit of the day. Davis and Howard formed the bat- tery for the Uptowns and held the Boureston’s to a close score until the seventh when Davis was relieved by Roach. Roach was very wild, and shortly filled the bases with no one out and forced a man in with a pass. He then settled down and retired the side. With two out in the ninth and the bases full, Roach was replaced by Burton, the sensational new re- eruit. Burton was very effective in this pinch, retiring the side by the strike-out route, stranding the Row reston’s run prospects on the bases. The Uptowns will play St. Louis Park's at St. Louis Park on Sunday, August 13. Game called at 3:30 p. m. Take the St. Louis Park car on Hennepin Avenue and ride to the park.
