SHOOT UP BOY SCOUTS Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee, Ala., Now Has Entire Negro Personel $1,000,000 NEGRO CORPORATION BEGINS STOCK SALE; MOTON PRES. LIFTING LIFT TOO $2.00 a Year. State Historical Society Copy Veterans' SHEETED COWARDS SHOOT INTO TENTS OF SLEEPING BOYS Burning the Customary Fiery Cross of The Klan Hooded Hoonums Attack Camp of Negro Boy Seunts KLEAGLE DENIES ALL GUILT Major Norman Had Ignored Warning to Vacate Camp or Stop Boy Scouts from Bathing in Darby Creek. (By the Associated Negro Press) Darby, Pa., July 18.—The Ku Klux Klan made its initial attack on children of this section of the country last week when it routed a bunch of Negro boy scouts from slumber and caused many of the younger ones to flee in disorder in their night clothes. The camp was surrounded by two truck loads of men and boys in hooded garments where fired into the several tents where the boys were asleep. Major Norman, a World War veteran, in charge of the camp advanced with rifle in hand towards a burning cross and returned the fire of the Klan who began to retreat. It was learned that Major Norman had ignored a warning to vacate the camp site or stop his boys from bathing in Darby creek. When the Klan opened fire Major Norman arose and sensing the meaning of the fire, and with a rifle in his hand advanced towards a burning cross that he saw about a 100 yards from the camp. He returned the fire of the Klan. In the meantime the younger boys had awakened, and became frightened. They fled from their tents in disorder. Seeing this, Major Norman succeeded in gathering the older boys together and they helped to defend the camp. Meanwhile, two other boys had been sent by Major Norman to the police stations in Philadelphia County which was a mile from the scene of action. They found their way through the woods and had several narrow escapes from being shot by the Klan. On arriving at the police station they gave the alarm and then reenacted the role of Paul Revere by going to the homes of the boys whose parents lived in West Philadelphia and told what had happened. The boys then went from door to door and gave the alarm again. Knowing the dirty deeds of the Klan nearly a thousand people, women and men, armed to the teeth, left for the scene of action. When they arrived they found the Ku Klux Klan had disappeared and a score of police scoured the woods for them, while Major Norman was rounding up the boys. In the afternoon, the Kleagle of the Klan in this section denied that the Klan had made the attack on the camp and stated that it was a bunch of people who were angry because the Boy Scouts' leader had refused to heed the warning to vacate the camp or else stop his boys from bathing in Darby creek. Much excitement prevailed in West Philadelphia when the parents of the boys were told of the attack and they feared for the lives of their children. Following the shooting of two policemen in Ardmore, Negroes have begun to leave the suburbs for the city. $1,000,000 NEGRO BEGINS STOCK S Durham, N. C., July 18.—With its organization machinery perfected and plans and purposes fully outlined, the National Negro Finance Corporation, capitalized at $1,000,000 with headquarters in the city and with a directorate comprising a number of the most influential and successful men of the race in various sections of the country has already made remarkable progress in the matter of having its stock subscribed by Negroes who realize and appreciate the wonderful service this corporation proposes to render the race, besides the splendid opportunity it offers for the investment of funds. Organized a little more than a month ago, the interest this project has elicited from the people of the country has been phenominal. That it has struck a popular chord is evidenced by the numerous inquiries from all sections of the country on file in the office of the secretary. Purposes Outlined.

SIX HIGH SCHOOL IN VIRGINIA Richmond, Va., July 18.—There are six high schools with eighty-four teachers, 3,026 students and plants worth $1,300,000 in this state. Nearly thirty-two per cent of our southern-born people, now living in the north, came from the two states of Virginia and Kentucky. Mr. H. L.

OMAHA, NEBRASKA, FRIDAY, JULY 18, 1924 Co-Operation Is Necessary to Progress Co-Operation Is Necessary to Progress REFUSES TO APPOINT DOCTOR OVER WHITE NURSES (By the Associated Negro Press) Philadelphia, Pa., July 18.—After having assured the people that he would exercise his influence in urging the appointment of Dr. John P. Turner, the eminent physician of this city on the staff of the Philadelphia General Hospital, Charles Hall, president of the City Council, was rebuffed when Dr. Paul Krusen, director of public health, flatly refused to appoint a Negro doctor. Although he found no fault with Dr. Turner's ability or character, the health director bowed to the prejudices of southern doctors who he said would resign from the hospital if he appointed Dr. Turner. He further said that he wouldn't appoint a Nego because he would be over the white nurses. Dr. Turner's record, past and present, is a credit to the race. His knowledge in the medical field is recognized by the leading white doctors of this city who constantly seek his advice on serious cases. And as yet Mr. Hall's influence has failed to work. By William Pickens. Toronto, Canada.—"In the United States the Negro population is redistributing itself," began William Pickens in an address here June 26 before the conference of social workers. "It is to be no longer a factor of a section but a national factor in every sense. The race problem is not now, if indeed it ever was, solely a problem of the South; it is a problem, and the most vital problem, of the United States of America. "I am a Southerner, and I want to confess that the chief thing the South has to teach the nation in the matter of dealing with the Negro is what not to do. Now that the problem is moving out all over the nation a study of the Southern method of dealing with the problem for 300 years will teach the rest of us what to avoid. "The race problem has not been solved in the South; it has been developed there. Verily, then, we should not hope to solve the problem by Southern methods. We must seek others methods—in some cases the opposite methods. "If the methods used by the South could ever be reduced to one word, that word would be 'segregation'. That involves for the Negro separate and inferior schools, Jim Crow cars, lynch law for court processes, unconstitutional disfranchisement, refusal of admission to or inferior accommodations in all shows and cultural entertainments, in many places no public parks or public libraries, and a general denial of equal accommodation in public places and equal humanhood in the society of man. "This system has solved no problem. This system can never solve any problem. This system is the problem factory and will continue to be until the end of the system. "We must substitute for this system community interests for the Negro. We must cease the abortive effort to encyst him; we cannot successfully encyst him; we must assimilate him. Blood assimilation is not necessary—not an end to be proposed at ORIGINATOR OF "COLOR LINE" IN PUGILISM DIES BROK (By the Associated Negro Press) New York City, N. Y., July 18.—Jim Wakely, the white man who has the distinction of being the first to draw the "color line" in pugilism, is dead. He died Friday night in St. Vincent's Hospital of heart disease, broke and practically friendless after being at one time the possessor of a fortune and thousands of friends. A generation ago, Wakely, who ran the well-known cafe in sporting circles at Sixth avenue and Forty-second street, was one of the outstanding figures in the sporting world. As manager and backer of John L. Sullivan he gained fame not only as the man who made the famous John L., but as the man who first went on record as refusing to permit his fighter to fight a colored man, the famous and immortal Peter Jackson. Wakely was 75 years old.

But there must be full assimilation in civil culture and in civic processes; in dustry, in economics, in education, in politics. "The minority race and the majority race occupying the same territory are indissolubly bound to the same destiny, and they have one set of interests, even if they are not friendly, Warfare between them is like the World war; everybody loses. The best interests of the 10,000,000 or 15,000,-000 Negroes in the United States will be found in the end of every effort to be identical with the best interests of the 90,000,000 or more of the white race there. "On a platform of justice and equality the two larger racial groups in this country, and all the minor groups, can afford to take their stand. Men speak volubly of maintaining racial superiority or hegemony, as if indeed it were wiser to pursue racial policy than to pursue human justice. Nothing in human history indicates that a race or a nation or an individual must fear to do just. UNITED STATES CIVIL SERVICE EXAMINATION The United States Civil Service Commission announces the following open competitive examination: Junior Medical Officer (Tuberculosis; Neuropsychiatry) Applications for the above positions will be accepted until August 19. Vacancies are at the U. S. Veterans' Hospital, Tuskegee, Ala. The Tuskegee hospital has been built for colored patients. It will be the policy to select colored eligibles for appointment. The entrance salary is $2,840 a year. Applicants must show that they have been graduated from a medical school of recognized standing or be senior students in such institution and furnish, within six months from the date of the examination, a statement from the proper official of the medical school attended attesting actual graduation. In addition, applicants must meet the requirements contained in one of the following groups: Special training in tuberculosis or in neuropsychiatry for a period of at least three months, either before or after graduation from medical college; service for a period of not less than three months in a hospital devoted to the treatment of tuberculosis or of CAUSED RUN ON BANK: JAILED (By the Associated Negro Press) Philadelphia, Pa., July 18.—George C. Bryant was convicted under the new law making it a serious offense to circulate false reports about the financial condition of banks or trust companies, and Judge McCullen sentenced him to one year in prison. "The offense of which you have been convicted," said Judge McCullen in passing the sentence, "is regarded as a serious offense by the Legislature as is shown by the drastic punishment provided in the act, under which the maximum punishment is five years' imprisonment. The spreading of false reports concerning a financial institution may result disastrously for the bank or trust company, or at least temporarily embarrass it and cause great alarm among depositors." It appeared that Bryant told several depositors in the Citizens' and Southern Banking Company, a colored institution, that the bank was about to "burst" and caused a run to be made on it before the truth was told. ice or that justice was ever a poor policy for a people. But history is full of lessons that teach the folly of abandoning those wise policies and sound principles that were born of the collective experience of man. Some reason thus: We have to maintain a certain race stock; to maintain that stock we must segregate, and when segregation is inconsistent with justice, we must do injustice. But we cannot prove the soundness of this chain of reasoning. Even the first proposition is a mere assumption. For how do we know that it is the final, the best, the last and the greatest thing to maintain any of the race stocks as we know them today? All the races as we know them are but the resultants of former unions, combinations and crosses. "If former unions have produced something so excellent, how do we know that further union may not produce something more excellent still? But one thing we do know: That we of the present generation can combine our talents without uniting our blood. If we make civilization our common contribution we will all have more civilization. God has endowed the human race with more talents than He gave to any one geographical race. Our talents vary; our powers may vary. The man of five talents has five talents and the fruits of five talents; the man of two talents has two talents and the fruits of two talents. But if these two men ever get wise and make a common cause, both will enjoy the fruits of seven talents. The white American and the black American can have more civilization through co-operation than either one could have alone, whatever their respective talents may be. Segregation in public and industrial activities and life implies and breeds contempt and makes injustice inevitable. The private right of any citizen in a free country to exclude other private persons from his private domain will always be maintained, but racial segregation in public and industrial estates is indefensible, politically and economically." mental disease; or any equivalent combination of the special training and experience prescribed in one of the preceding classes.

WARD APPOINTED HEAD OF VETERANS' HOSPITAL AT TUSKEGEE Whole Number 471 tire Negro SUDDENLY SUCCUMBS TO SERIOUS SICKNESS Mrs. John W. Gatus, Who Was Believed to be Recovering From Recent Operation Suddenly Expires Sunday Morning. The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. John W. Gatus of 2731 Caldwell street, were shocked and saddened by the death of Mrs. Gatus, which occurred unexpectedly at University hospital shortly after 8 o'clock Sunday morning. Mrs. Gatus was taken to the hospital about a month ago where she underwent a serious operation, and although it was known that her condition was critical, her favorable reaction from the operation and her apparently rapid and steady improvement until a few days prior to her death held out the hope that she would soon be able to be home again, and on the highway towards better health than she had enjoyed for several months. She expired suddenly Sunday morning; news of her death, therefore, came as a distinct shock. Mrs. Pauline Dabney Gatus belonged to one of Illinois' most highly respected and prosperous pioneer families. She was the daughter of Henry and Elmire (Dabney) Owens of Villa Ridge, Pulaski County, Illinois, where she was born October 16, 1875. Receiving a liberal education she taught for seventeen years and was active in civic, charitable, religious and racial matters. Three years ago, July 24, 1921, at 8 o'clock in the morning, she was married to John W. Gatus, of this city, in the Episcopal Church or St. Phillip the Deacon, coming directly from the train to the church. Rev. John Albert Williams officially. By her genial and gracious personality she won a warm place in the hearts of the people of this community. She was treasurer of the Woman's Auxiliary of St. Philip's Church. The funeral was held from the Church of St. Philip the Deacon, the Rev. John Albert Williams, pastor, Tuesday afternoon at 3o'clock, the body being taken therefrom to the Burlington station and leaving on the 4:30 train for interment in the family plot at Villa Ridge. The remains were accompanied by Mr. Gatus and Mrs. Lucile Harris of Chicago, youngest sister of the deceased. Mrs. Gatus is survived by her husband and a step-son, Travis Gatus of Omaha; a mother, Mrs. Henry Owens of Villa Ridge, Ill., four brothers, four sisters and a large number of other relatives.

The Veterans Bureau has announced the appointment of Dr. Joseph H. Ward of Indianapolis, Ind., as acting medical officer in charge. He has been the chief of the surgical service. Dr. Charles M.

Paris, France, July 18.—High praise for Roland Hayes from the critics in the European press probably caused many Americans to figure the case of Hayes exceptional or singular. Such is not wholly the case. Hayes' triumphs were the more noticeable because of his having come from America from where little was expected and then to have made a mark. There are many other Negro stars performing in European houses, creating sensations in their kind, but not as loudly talked about nor as much advertised because the Continent has got used to them. One of these singers, especially popular now, is Gloria de la Cuesta (daughter of the Cuban deputy and lawyer.) Jean Fenget, writing in L' Action Coloniale after hearing her sing declares that she "seems to have issued from the pages of some novel of Madame Gerad d'Houville, to have searched the world's music for master coogenial to her temperament and to have succeeded in uniting Prohoeff and Debusy under the shady skies of Havana." Suggesting that she is different from other stars in Europe, Fungee writes: "When 'she wrings from the music of Borodiso its throbbing images, when she offers the adorable 'Rendo' of Weber, and their auditors ask in vain: 'Whom does she resemble?' She began to practice at the age of seven. At fourteen she had already made her mark with brilliant examinations. The Cuban government made her the means of coming to Europe to perfect herself. From 1920 to 1922 she studied the old classics of the Continent at the Conservatory of Madrid. Now her success, while still a young woman, leads. Fangeat to expect to hear from her again and again and to urge Negroes to "make the acquaintance of the first stars of this constellation who are revealing themselves about the tropics. As there is a Negro intellectual life, so there is a Negro artistic life which will soon people our scenes with new talents, talents to which the white race with its last breath possible could not lay claim." Mrs. Lillian Evans Tibbs of Washington, D. C., is another American race woman who has attracted attention here. She is studying and expects to remain a year. GETS PHIL BROWN'S POST Washington, D. C., July 18.—Carl F. Phillips is reported to have been named commissioner of conciliation in the United States Department of Labor, succeeding the late Phil H. Brown. TED HEAD OF TAL AT TUSKEGEE acting medical officer in charge of this hospital ends a bitter fight between the colored people of the United States and Alabama whites over the personnel. This hospital—the finest of its kind in the world—was built at Tuskegee, Ala., exclusively for Negro soldiers. It was the understanding that it would have an all-colored personnel. But after its dedication, Colonel R. H. Stanley, a native Alabanian, was made the commanding officer and given a white staff. Colonel Stanley immediately began an agitation to retain this position. He aroused the entire Tuskegee community. Protests were filed with the President against the removal of Colonel Stanley and the white employees. The legislature of the state of Alabama passed a resolution petitioning the President not to remove them. The Ku Klux Klan—hooded in sheets alleged to have been furnished them by Colonel Stanley—paraded through the government grounds and were banqueted in the hospital dining room.

THE RIGHT METHOD WILLIAM PICKENS who is unquestionably one of the most scholarly, able and outstanding men of America, irrespective of race, for mentality and morality override the accidents of pigmentation and descent, is well qualified to give advice on the "Race Problem". In speaking before the international conference of Social Workers at Toronto recently he very forcibly showed that the Southern method has not solved the race problem, but has DEVELOPED it. Its method is that of segregation, which makes for estrangement, misunderstanding and bitterness. Mr. Pickens is a Southerner and knows wherehe speaks. The failure of this method should prevent other sections trying the impossible. He very truly says: "We must substitute for this system community interest for the Negro. We must cease the abortive effort to encyst him; we cannot successfully encyst him; we must assimilate him. Blood assimilation is not necessary—not an end to be proposed at any rate. But there must be assimilation in civil culture and in civil processes; in industry, in economics, in education, in politics." The North and West unfortunately are becoming tainted and impregnated with the idea that the Southern method is the wise and practical method. This is a fatal mistake. It has not worked in the South, but has proven to be as Mr. Pickens says, "THE PROBLEM FACTORY AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE UNTIL THE END OF THE SYSTEM." It certainly will not work in the North where the Negro because of a larger freedom and better educational advantages and conditions has developed a spirit and independence which is impossible under the repression to which he has been subjected in the South. The application of the Southern system in the North means unquestionably, sooner or later, serious trouble. It is therefore to be hoped that the broad-minded people of the North will realize what the broad-minded people of the South must eventually realize and we believe are coming to realize that the Southern method of dealing with the race problem, has not, does not, nor cannot solve it, and apply the just and sensible method of helpful and sympathetic co-operation, upon the principle of from each according to his ability and to each according to his needs. This is the right method. IT PAYS TO FIGHT INFORMATION that must prove gratifying to all right-minded Americans, and we believe them to be in the vast majority, is that which relates to mob-murder or lynching which is the crying disgrace of our country. The number of lynchings reported for the first six months of this year is five. This is an amazing reduction from that of former years. Of course, this is five too many in any civilized country, but it points hopefully to the fulfillment of the dream of Negro newspapers of this country which were the first, merely "a voice crying in the wilderness" to begin the agitation against lynching. Among the outstanding services of the Negro newspaper in the United States has been its persistent agitation and fight for forty years against lynching and mob violence. Gradually its feeble voice was heard and here and there a powerful daily raised its voice against this iniquity. Then came that A PRAYER FOR DELIVERY PREEMI By Mormon (For the Assoc GOD, who hast made who dost love all whom because of difference separate ourselves from other teach as the unity of Thy Thy love. As Thy Son, our mother and ministered first of Israel, but rejoiced in the man and of a Roman soldier carried by a man of Africa, serving our own, to enter in human family; and forbid hardness of heart, we should O GOD, who hast made man in Thine own likeness and who dost love all whom Thou hast made, suffer us not, because of difference in race, color or condition, to separate ourselves from others, and thereby from Thee; but teach as the unity of Thy family and the universality of Thy love. As Thy Son, our Savior, was born of an Hebrew mother and ministered first to His brethren of the House of Israel, but rejoiced in the faith of a Syro-Phoenician woman and of a Roman soldier, and suffered His cross to be carried by a man of Africa, teach us, also, while loving and serving our own, to enter into the communion of the whole human family; and forbid that, from pride of birth and hardness of heart, we should despise any for whom Christ died, or injure any in whom He lives. Amen. PAGE TWO naturalized in the United States, on thereof, are citizens of the state wherein they reside. No any law which shall abridge the citizens of the United States; nor person of life, liberty, or prop- law, nor deny to any person final protection of the lawn. great organization, the National Association for the Advancement of the Colored People, which has consistently, uncompromisingly and scientifically fought lynching for the past decade by a tremendous campaign of publicity and agitation for a federal law. The conscience of the country has been so aroused that there has been a steady reduction of lynching in the last few years. It must not be forgotten, however, that the United States and all lovers of America's good name owe a debt of gratitude to the Negro owe the country and to the N. A. A. C. P. for their work in redeeming America from this menace and curse. The work is not yet consummated. There must be no cessation in this fight until law and the orderly process of the court shall be enthroned and the lynching of any human being becomes an impossibility in the United States. The fact that the reproach of lynching is being gradually rolled away emphasizes the fact that it pays to fight in a righteous cause. HOW ABOUT THESE? THERE is a very important truth which needs emphasizing in respect to the political situation. It is this: Congressional, state, county and municipal officers should interest the ordinary voter, much more than that of the Chief Executive of the Nation. The President, of course, is important, but our congressman and governor and mayor and councilman and member of the school board more closely touches us than does the President. Voters should consider the character, attitude and record of these officials who are frequently overlooked in the heat and excitement of a presidential campaign. What kind of a man is the candidate for congress from your district who is asking for your vote? What kind of a man would you have as governor of your state? Don't forget the importance of local candidates and local issues. Learn what you can about men and measures and then vote your convictions. WHAT OTHER EDITORS SAY Reduced Lynchings There is no mistake about the cause of the reduction in lynchings in the United States during the first six months of this year. The reason is clear. It is the result of the agitation for a federal law against it. And, whereas, we are pleased to note the decrease in lynchings, yet we are in no wise to solace ourselves with the delusion or false hope that the days of lynching are a thing of the past. The spirit of intolerance is as prevalent today as it was yesterday. In fact, we think worse. There has only been a shift in the scene of its operations. The spirit is still here. Just lying dormant under the cover of FEAR. Cease your agitation for state and federal laws against mob violence, and like a smoother volcano, it will burst into the most violent flame for life and blood. The government owes to every citizen the protection of life, liberty and property. This guarantee is supposed to be carried out through the several states, and when a state fails, miserably fails to carry out the provision of the Constitution of the United States, then surely it is the bounded duty of the government to step in and make good its promise—St. Louis Argus.

In 1907 a modern building to serve as a model for other buildings for colored men, was presented to the people of Columbus, Georgia, by Mr. Geo. Foster Peabody, at a cost of $30,000. What Was the Result of the Passing of the Fragitive Slave Act? When President Fillmore signed the Fugitive Slave Act on September 18, 1850, he started a Negro migration that continued up to the opening of the Civil War, resulting in thousands of people of color crossing over into Canada, and causing many thousands more to move from one state into another seeking safety from their pursuers. The other enactments might possibly have produced and it did more to convert northern to abolitionist beliefs than abolitionists themselves.

QUARTER-TONE PIANO INVENTED BY GERMAN Fascinating Effect Produced by New Instrument, Say Musicians Who Have Heard It. Berlin.—New fine points for jazz music will be made possible by the invention by Grotian Steinweg of Brunswick, Germany, of a quartet tone piano which produces sounds described as a cross between the gliding airs of ukulele and a banjo and the exotic intervals of a Chinese string piano. Two pianos, one of which is tuned to standard pitch and the other of which is tuned a quarter tone higher, are connected with a keyboard on which red and brown keys are inserted between the ordinary black and white keys. The playing of this new composite instrument is said to have a fascinating effect, according to persons who have heard concerts given by the inventor. Alois Haba, composer of quartet tone music, who has been at work on scores of this kind for some time, sees a far-reaching future in quartet tone music and regards Herr Steinweg's invention as epoch-making. Not only will the ear have to become accustomed to differentiating between intervals of only a quarter of a tone, but the whole technique of piano playing will be changed. Women with small hands will be eliminated as pianists since the new octave will require a greater hand span. The entire mechanism of playing will also become greatly complicated since there will be one-third more keys. Musical critics who have heard Herr Steinweg's instrument have reserved judgment on it. They appear to fear being classed as old-timers if they do not fall in with the modern tendency toward the unusual, yet at the same time they admit their ears are not yet educated up to the new invention. Chinese Girls Balk at Shanghai.—All girls of China have absorbed the American notion that love is the real basis for marriage. The notion is so common in America now that it is taken for granted, but Chinese girls defy all the traditions of 3,000 years when they voice such sentiments. But a movement has started among all of the girl students in Chinese government universities which has this notion as its basis. Miss Mo Yimin, an advanced young woman at the government university in Peking, first suggested the movement. And the readiness of Chinese girls to accept it was illustrated by the rapidity with which the movement spread to the schools of other cities, including Shanghai. Get 107-Pound Sturgeon Kimball, S.

THE MONITOR VETERAN LIVES AT GRANT'S FIRST CAMP Sole Survivor of General's Original Command. Springfield, Ill.—Eight miles west of Springfield, on the public highway to Jacksonville, Israel F. Pearce, patriarch, veteran of Grant's army and participant in Sherman's march to the sea, lives in solitude on the land where General Grant pitched camp on his first day's march into the Civil war. Pearce, the only man now living out of the entire regiment which went into encampment on this spot of ground the night of July 3, 1861, maintains a guard over the old camp ground and over "General Grant's tree," a large, peculiarly shaped black walnut tree under which Grant wrote his orders. Raises His Flag Daily Every morning at sunrise the tattered old flag belonging to Pearce is raised from a 30-foot flagpole near his house, and every evening at sundown the flag is lowered. Pearce acts as a guardian for this historic spot and is glad to relate its history to passing tourists, although the historical connection is known to few people, and no marks, save the veteran's flag, are to be seen on the land. "General Grant's tree," some three feet in diameter, stands near the house. Here, Pearce tells tourists, he saw Grant, sitting astride a peculiar limb growth, near the ground, writing out the first day's orders. Grant's tent was pitched a few feet from the tree, and he once addressed the regiment from a spot near where the tall flagpole now stands. "The first day's march of the regiment, the Twenty-first Illinois infantry, was started from Camp Yates, in this city, about 11 a. m., and the first camp site was reached about 5 p. m." Pearce relates. "The regiment was halted in columns of companies in the woods, arms were stacked and when wagon trains came into camp each company unloaded its wagon, arranged the tents by opening and spreading them on the ground, and at one sound of the drum the tents were raised; at two sounds ropes were stretched, and at the third sound, the stakes were driven and the regiment was under canvas in its first tented field. Many Stragglers in March. "The first day's march was attended with hardships, and there were stragglers and absentees. The punishment given was extra guard duty both for officers and men. The men made camp fires and cooked their first meal in camp at this time. "During the first evening, officers call was sounded and Grant, then Colonel Grant, talked to the men, emphasizing the absolute necessity of enforcing respect for the inhabitants of the country through which the regiment was passing. The captains of the companies were made personally responsible for the acts of the men." Pearce was quartered both at Fort Henry and Fort Donelson, and on July 4, 1863, marched into Vicksburg with Grant and his army; just two years after the regiment left its first camp near the walnut tree. From Vicksburg, Pearce went with Sherman on his march to the sea, through the Carolinas and on to Washington. He participated in the grand review up Pennsylvania avenue at the close of the war. Cardlngton Will Become London.—The cabinet's decision to establish an imperial airship service and to select Cardington, in Bedfordshire, as the home of airship research and experiment will make Cardington the world's greatest airport. It was here that the ill-fated R-38, which broke her back at Hull, was built, and her sister ship R-87, now stands half completed in the shed. This colossal shed is capable of accommodating two such airships, has up-to-date works nearby a gas manufactory and palatial offices. Philadelphia.—Her heart pushed nearly over to the right side and her left lung crumpled below the shoulder, Miss Hazel Richardson, twenty-six years old, of Washington, went to the Philadelphia General hospital three months ago to die. Recently Miss Richardson walked out of the hospital with heart and lung in their normal positions. If she will not exert herself she may live for many years, physicians say. Air escaping through a puncture in the left lung filled the area about the heart. It pushed the cardiac organ down and toward the right side, until it finally attained a position behind the eighth rib. Water also pressed against her heart. Both water and air were drawn off through a small tube inserted through the left side. The pressure relieved, the heart returned to its normal position, and the lung, with the puncture blocked, slowly expanded. Through the lung's deflation the hole in the pulmonary organ probably was permitted to heal by nature's process, it is believed. Find Hudson Bay Trap The Hudson Bay Trap Chehalis—An interesting relic of bygone days, possibly dating back to Hudson Bay times, is an exhibition in a hardware store window here. It is a monster steel trap, the sprung jaws of which would be powerful enough, it would seem, to hold an elephant. It was found northwest of Chehalis, near Littell. Some believe that it may have been set many years ago by trappers of the Hudson Bay company, as antique is the type.

Bottle Papers Aid in Philadelphia - Not all bottles thrown into the sea are dead ones, according to Curence Shomber, nautical expert in the United States hydrographic office at the customhouse. Many an empty bottle, he admits, has been heaved overboard by skipper, passenger and crew alike, to gurgle its way to a salty grave. But many others, having been thoroughly squeezed of their former contents, have had the prescribed form of bottle paper, furnished to mariners by the hydrographic office of the navy bureau, securely placed in them, been tightly corked and sealed and heaved into the deep. These forms contain spaces to be filled in by the person throwing the bottle overboard, which show their name, vessel, date, latitude and longitude, and the date and locality where the bottle was picked up. Instructions on the form are in eight languages and direct the finder to send the "bottle paper" to any United States consul or to the hydrographic office, Navy department, Washington. Carried and tossed by wind, wave and current, these "bottle papers" drift thousands of miles and are not found sometimes for years. They are thrown into the water to aid scientists in the study of ocean currents. One bottle thrown over off the Florida coast was washed upon a beach in Scotland. Referring to this incident, Mr. Shomber said: "That was just a case of a bottle trying to get home. Often these bottles show the brand they use on board the ships." AMOS P. SCRUGGS, Att'y.

Washington, D. C.—"The much-travelled Atlantic is putting on its usual color show for the summer tourist. It is exhibiting a decided preference for blue, with soft foamy white ruffles. Sometimes it is wearing sage greens, deep indigo, or royal purple. "Globe trotters will find the Mediterranean and the Caribbean tricked out in sapphire blue, the Red sea in varying shades of henna, the Yellow sea in beige and tan, the Antarctic in olive green and the shallows of the Gulf of Mexico in a soft turquoise," according to a bulletin issued from the Washington (D. C.) headquarters of the National Geographic society. "In order to put on such a pleasing display of shade and hue, the seas have summoned to their aid many and varted hosts, notable among which are warmth and cold, sunlight and shadow, sand, silt, and possible volcanic dust, salt, lime, and various and sundry kinds of diatoms and algae. "Absolutely pure water is a clear blue color because the blue rays of sunlight are not absorbed by the water as the red rays are. Thus the open ocean seems intensely blue. Distilled water has a greenish cast due to the impurities which still remain after the distillation. This makes it clear why the shallow water in bays and estuaries is green or yellowish green. One explanation of the olive-green of the ocean in the vicinity of the South pole is that R contains enormous quantities of diatoms in suspension. When a Gray Gown Is Worn. "Sometimes the ocean wears a gray gown, but that usually happens when the clouds shut out the sunlight and then in respect for the grim aspect of the frowning skies it subdues the tones of its garment. "Two factors contribute largely to the blueness of the Mediterranean; there are few large rivers, which ordinarily bring enormous quantities of impurities, flowing into it, and there is a constant stream of salty water pouring into it from the Atlantic ocean through the Strait of Gibraltar. It is said by some oceanographers that the blue of sea water bears a direct ratio to its salinity. As an example of this the band of tropical waters extending about thirty degrees on each side of the equator, where there is tremendous evaporation under a blazing sun, is cited. It is true that these waters are very salty and an exquisite azure in color. On the other hand, the Arctic and Antarctic waters, which are cold and less salty, are vivid green. "The Yellow sea derives its golden tints from the sediment brought to it by the Yellow river and several other streams rising near the desert areas in western China. Scientists also believe that the billions of minute living organisms found in its waters helped give it its name. A Yellow River in the Atlantic. "In January, 1909, a peculiar phenomenon was observed in the Atlantic ocean. Running parallel with the warm clear blue waters of the Gulf stream from Cape Florida to Cape Hatteras, there was a yellow river three miles wide. It lasted for a few weeks and then faded away into the surrounding ocean. Some cataclysm on the face of the deep, probably of volcanic origin, had evidently set this yellow stream in motion. "The dull reddish tint of the Red sea is imparted to it by millions of microscopic algae. A host of the minute Dinoflagellata sometimes will redden the ocean for miles. "The lovely blue of the waters surrounding the coral islands of the South seas, which have long been famous in song and story, is said to be due to the calcium carbonate which is held in solution. "The degree of penetration of light into water is a contributing factor in the color of various bodies of water. The Saguenay river, a tributary of the St. Lawrence from the north, is somber and impressive because its waters seem almost black. It winds through high hills which shut out the light and its bed is cut 600 feet deeper than that of the river into which it flows. "In 1901, the sea off the California coast turned almost black, the waters of Santa Cruz bay becoming particularly inky, but no satisfactory explanation has ever been offered of the occurrence." Montgomery, Ala.—The age-old marriage vow containing the word "obey," was given an interpretation with "teeth" by the Alabama court appeals when it upheld in effect the right of a husband to object to his wife's employment of adventitious aids to her supposedly natural beauty. It is the imperative duty of a man's wife to obey, the court held. The wife in question had curled her hair against the expressed wish of her husband. In rendering the opinion, the court also decided it not only was the right but the duty of the husband to fix the domicile of his children, irrespective of the mother's wishes. The Steel City Industrial and Commercial Association of Pittsburgh has purchased 110 acres of ground in Fayette county, Pa., to be used as an amusement park. New Law Requires State Be Given Their Custody. Stockholm.—Computory removal of wayward or depraved children from their homes into public custody, and subsequent supervision up to the age of eighteen, is provided for in a new law for the care of children which has just been passed by the riksdag. The law further provides for public care of children who are found to be exposed to undesirable influence and in danger of becoming depraved. Children removed from their homes by government inspectors and matrons in compliance with this law are placed in government institutions, or in good private homes in the country, where they receive expert training and can grow up in healthful surroundings. Social service of a similar sort has been carried on in the cities of Sweden, especially Stockholm, for many years by municipal and state boards, who place the children in desirable homes far out in the country, and pay an annual compensation to these homes. In many cases a strong bond of affection grows up between these waifs of the slums and their foster parents, which culminates in legal adoption. Under the new law every city and parish will have a special board for the care of children, including local pastors and teachers as permanent members, while inspectors will travel all over the country for the purpose of observing and controlling individual development. Thousands of country homes receive the poor children of the city as guests during the summer and send them back to their homes with cheeks round and rosy. Nation-wide and energetic philanthropic work also is carried on by the Swedish society "Save the Children," the campaign culminating in an annual Children's day, when large amounts are raised to provide summer vacations in children's colonies by the seaside, and in some cases on islands specially reserved. Philippines in Quake Belt. Scientist Warns Manila.—That Manila may at almost any time be visited by an earthquake such as destroyed Yokohama last September is the warning given by Father Roque Ruano, professor of physics and engineering in the University of Santo Tomas, who has just returned from a visit in Japan, where he studied the effect of earthquakes in that country. "The Philippines ile in the same seismic zone as does the earthquake region of Japan, and conditions in Manila are analogous in many respects to those found in Yokohama," said Father Ruano. "The same subsoll that is found in Yokohama is found here and building construction is practically identical." The professor recommends that a committee of geologists and scientists study the earthquake regions of the Philippines and make a report in order to impress upon the people the necessity of preparing for a severe quake at any time. Sing Sing Has Largest Roster in Its History New York.—Warden Lewis E. Lawes is about to read to hang the "S. R. O." sign on the Sing Sing door. With 1.447 state guests occupying these quarters, said to be the most choice of all the country's prisons, room is left for but a few more. It is the largest roster the penitentiary has had in eight years. The crowded condition will not affect the persons now under Mr. Lawes' supervision, but it will be hard on the offenders who are sentenced to Sing Sing from now on, for the trip will be continued from the Ossining establishment to the less popular Clinton prison at Dannemora, where privileges are fewer, visitors rare and discipline comparatively severe. One Family Owned Land in Quebec Since 1629 Quebec, Canada.—The Arts, Science and Letters society recently sent a questionnaire to the various parishes of Quebec and Montmorency, seeking information about old families. The results received were quite interesting. One family, that of Ismael Bedard, remained on the same land at Charlesbourg since 1629; the family of Hector Lalibertte of St. Jean, Island of Orleans, is the largest in Montmorency county, consisting of 20 children, all living. Joseph Gagnon of St. Pierre, Island of Orleans, has the largest number of living descendants with 210. Special diplomas will be forwarded to these families by the society. 6.000 Miles to Tie Knot San Francisco.—Anxious to keep a promise made to his son long before the boy was old enough to think seriously of marriage, the Rev. Thomas Angus Morrison of Glasgow arrived here from Scotland to officiate at the wedding of the son, Capt.

But upon their first face-to-face meeting he discovered that her teeth were not clean. And he soon lost interest. So many people overlook this one matter of fastidiousness. And do so in spite of the fact that in conversation the teeth are the one most noticeable thing about you. Notice today how you, yourself, watch another person's teeth when he or she is talking. If the teeth are not well kept they at once become a liability. Listerine Tooth Paste cleans teeth a new way.
