Haitian Chief Executive Wants No
Collaboration From Colored
People of the United
Port Au Prince, Aug. 8.—President Borneo's hostility to Negroes in the United States rendering any aid to the former colored republic was challenged here recently by the "Novelliste" which editorially demanded that the U. S. be asked to send a commission of Negroes to Haiti to study conditions. The editorial states in part: "Another Wrong Charged Against the United States by Design. "We said the other day that the news and commentaries of the Haitian press were not integrally reported in the United States. One can take this as one wishes. The fact is that many things about the true situation are unknown. "There exists another fact even of a graver nature. The Haitian colored people are made to pose as horribly detesting the colored people of America. Feeling that the Black party in the United States is still the only organization which naturally, sincerely and automatically sympathizes with the Republic of Haiti, and that it will carry before the American conscience the Haitian cause in its details, everything is done to create and maintain a firebrand of discord between the colored people of Haiti and the colored people of the United States.
"We wish the American people and above all, the government at Washington, to know that it is absolutely false that the Haitians do not wish to see the American Negroes. On the contrary the Haitians vociferously demand that colored American officials come here in order to know the situation of their race kindred. Only people of the black race will be able to understand the true needs of the Haitian Negroes; these people alone will be able to measure the extent to which our pride has been chilled and the chagrin which gnaws us. "Every Haitian sees clearly today that the present situation calls for a commission composed of colored men of high competence who will understand our situation and will make every effort to change it.
"If the present government of President Borno repels and has always repelled the collaboration of the colored Americans everybody knows why. But the Haitian people think all to the contrary. They know their needs and they know their sympathizers are. The government did not deign to receive in Haiti Dr. Moton, a genius of the Negro race in America, while this same Moton has been invited to the table of the King of England, of the King of Spain and of the highest personalities in Europe.
"What is there to say after that?"
VIRGINIA FARMER IS
FORCED BY MOB TO
FLEE FROM HOME
Clarion, Va., Aug. 8.—William Noble Lewis was forced by a mob to flee his 20 acre farm, leaving a bride of three weeks and his mother.
Whites declare he was "sassy" to the white postmistress in demanding a key to the postoffice box he had just rented. She is reported to have threatened to sick relatives on him. Colored neighbors say whites are jealous because Lewis, who is a graduate of the Penn state agricultural college, had laid out and worked his farm scientifically to produce a large income and that white neighbors who are backward desired it.
Twenty whites in automobiles attacked his home. Lewis beat them off and escaped to Pittsburgh when they went for reinforcements.

THE MONITOR
YOUR VOTES NEEDED
The Negro vote will be in greater request during the coming election than ever before. It will be concededly the determining factor in ten states. Neither party makes a compelling appeal.
The Negro has been a republican by tradition and inertia. He adheres to his ancient allegiance because he lacks political energy and enterprise to break away. In nineteen twelve he divided his vote in comparable numbers between Roosevelt, Wilson and Taft, but soon drifted back to his first love. No one can tell how this vote will be distributed in the present campaign. But whoever gets it will have to go after it vigorously.—Kelly Miller.

PRAISES DARBY SCHOOL HEAD
FOR STAND FOR JUSTICE
New York, August 7.—Although a group of white high school students in Darby, Pennsylvania, protested against the appointment of a colored girl. Hilda, Bolden, as valedictorian of their class, and threatened to hold separate commencement exercises of their own, the school authorities led by Walter R. Donthett, superintendent of schools in Darby, stood by the colored girl.
"So far as we are concerned there is no race distinction in the schools," Mr. Donthett is quoted as saying.
Mr. Donthett's stand, based on Miss Belden's excellence as a student, elicited a letter of appreciation from the N. A. A. C. P., which said in part:
"Unequivocal and courageous action like yours in refusing to listen to race prejudice will be a source of much encouragement to other colored children who will aspire to high records, knowing that they will be given that which they earn."
GET KLANSMEN WHO SHOT COPS
(By Asociated Negro Press)
Ardmore, Pa., August 7.—Captain Donaghy, the seventy-three year old police officer, succeeded in arresting four residents of this borough for the shooting of two policemen on July 3, when they attempted to arrest a cowdow of Klansmen for burning a cross in the section near where Negroes lived and causing them to leave bag and baggage.
Two of the four men arrested worked in the post office, the third is a brother of the commander of the American Legion Post and the other is a brother officer of the two who were wounded.
Whether commander Boyd, of the American Legion Post, who offered the services of the post to run down the klansmen knew that his brother was a member of the klan could not be learned. However, at the post meeting a split occurred when part of the members demanded the klan be denounced by name while the others who were in majority killed the motion. Then the members who were against the klan denounced the American Legion and left the meeting in disgust.
The four men confessed and implicated others of the police force. A sergeant and another policeman will have a hearing before the township commander on charges of being "unloyal officers."
Three of the men who could not raise bail included Joseph Boyd brother of the Legion Post commander, who refused to aid him in any way

SIGNS OF INSURGENCY
Philadelphia, Aug. 8.—By a vote of 29 to 12, the Citizens' Republican club of which Edward Henry is president, refused to endorse Coolidge for president.
The club is organized against the President for his refusal to make appointments; second, for the naming of Bascom Slemp, lily white, as secretary; third, for his refusal to state his attitude toward the Ku Klux Klan, and fourth, because his party did not insert an anti-klan plank in their platform.
The club will defeat Bill McCoach for council in the 30th ward unless colored people are given a member on the school board, state committeeman and a city councilman.
A NATIONAL WEEKLY NEWSPAPER DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF COLORED AMERICANS
THE REV. JOHN ALBERT WILLIAMS, Editor
OMAHA, NEBRASKA, FRIDAY, AUGUST 8, 1924
NEW YORK HAS SIX COLORED HIGH SCHOOL TEACHERS
Willis Huggins Recently Elected to Teach European History During Next Scholastic Year
APPOINTEE STUDYING ABROAD
By Lester A. Walton.
New York, Aug. 7.—Among the 250 receiving appointments to teach in New York high schools at the beginning of the next scholastic year was one Negro, Willis N. Huggins. His appointment makes the sixth member of his race to teach in the local high schools. He will instruct in European history.
Mr. Huggins is a native of Selma, Ala. After supplementing his normal training at Selma university with two years' special training in technical subjects at Armstrong Technical School, Washington, he came to New York in 1911, entering Teachers College, Columbia university, from which he was graduated in 1914 with the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education. The following year he received the Master of Arts degree. For five years he was a teacher in the public schools of Chicago, coming to New York in 1922. He has been teaching defective children in the day elementary schools and in the evening elementary schools among the foreign born.
The new appointee sailed for Europe, July 2, on the Paris to take work in French history and literature during July at the University of Paris and to take a vacation course in mediaeval and modern history of England and Western Europe in August at Oxford University, England.
SCHOOL BOARD REFUSES
TO OUST TEACHER
Wilmington, Del.-A. N. P.)—The board of education decided that it could not compel its employees to live in any specified district. A petition was presented by some of the residents living in the vicinity of Thirteenth and Tatnall streets protests against a teacher living in that neighborhood. The teacher is Miss Charlotte Slowe, of Baltimore. All other houses in the block are occupied by white persons. Miss Slowe is a principal of No. 22 school. She formerly lived at Second and Justition streets, but a little more than a month ago, she purchased the 1301 Tathall street property. Part of the house she altered into an apartment, which she let to another colored family.
NEGRO HISTORY IN 3RD EDITION
Washington, D. C., August 8.—So popular is the "Negro In Our History", a text book suitable for grammar and high schools published originally two years ago, that the third edition revised has just come from the press of the Associated Publishers here.
The revised book has over a hundred pages of new material, enlarging the volume to a volume of nearly 500 pages including sketches of the modern phases of Negro life in America and numerous illustrations.
HAITIANS WELCOMED
Port Au Prince, Haiti, Aug. 8.—The Haitian rifle team, which performed so brilliantly in the Olympian Games in France, tying the French team for second place, arrived home July 21 and was given a great public welcome. The marksmans were met by a regiment of gendarmi and were escorted through the streets in a gala parade to the presidential palace, where they were given a reception by the president of the republic.
AFRICAN MOTHER GIVES
BIRTH TO QUINTIPLETS
Lagos, West Africa, July 11.—A remarkable incident was recently reported from Yei district, when a native woman of Chief Kobwa's village gave a birth to five children—four males and one female. Unhappily, all five have died at birth. It recalls a similar happening in Uganda a few years ago, when it was reported a native woman had given birth to eight children, all of whom died.
MIGHT CAUSE QUAKE THAT
WOULD DESTROY NEW YORK
Mad Search for Oil May Cause Radical Changes in This Planet, Says Scientist.
Philadelphia.—"There is a very real danger that New York city may suffer from an earthquake one of these days. Unless the world gets over its mad search for oil there are going to be some radical changes on this planet."
These are some of the startling predictions made by Prof. David Todd of Amherst college, professor of astronomy, internationally known scientist and author of half a dozen books and innumerable articles. Professor Todd is spending the summer on the estate of P. M. Sharples, near West Chester.
New York city, he says, is as likely a site for the next earthquake as any in the United States. This is because of the geological formation of the land beneath it. Earthquakes almost invariably come at a point where two strata or layers beneath the surface of the ground come together. When terrific pressure comes on this point it is inevitable that it should crack.
According to Professor Todd, it has been ascertained that just such an underground joint lies beneath Manhattan island. The pressure which eventually will force this joint apart and cause an earthquake is caused by the thousands and thousands of tons which are being heaped onto the island in the shape of huge buildings and still huge foundations.
He predicts that when the earthquake finally comes the destruction which will follow will be far greater and more terrible than that which followed the Japanese upheaval of last summer.
Professor Todd is also pessimistic over the consequences of the "will madness" which is gripping the world at the present time. "Did you ever see a driller strike oil?" he asked. "If you have you will get some idea of the tremendous pressure which is locked up in the ground beneath us. It is this pressure which holds the world in shape. And with countless hundreds of oil wells tapping this pressure in every part of the globe, what will be the result I dare not predict."

Salvaging of German Fleet at Scapa Flow Started
Scapa Flow.—At Scapa Flow a serious commencement has been made with the salvage of the German fleet. One of the divers states that some of the sunken ships are covered with growths 20 feet long and record-sized barnacles and mussels. The divers found the Hindenburg, at one time the pride of the German navy, with engines and interior intact. Champagne bottles and glasses were found in the officers' quarters and bunks un disturbed. The Hindenburg lies in eleven fathoms of water and, if she proves seaworthy, she may be towed for dismantling to Queensborough. A curious fact is the entire absence of fish in Scapa Flow. Crabs and lobsters are as thick as trees in a forest, said a diver, but other kinds of fish must have been scared away.
PRESIDENT KING URGES PROGRESS BY REPUBLIC
Advocates Abolishment of Chain Gang, the Establishment of Federal Prison and Improved Roads
PUBLIC SCHOOL SYSTEM GROWS
The message of Charles D. B. King, President of Liberia, West Africa, to the 35th legislature has just arrived in printed form in this country and is being distributed through Liberian Consul General, Dr. Ernest Lyon.
The president urges the abolishment of working prisoners in the chain gangs on the road on the ground that "nowhere in civilized centers of the world does this practice now obtain."
A centralized federal prison is urged for the Republic.
Increase of customs at all ports is noted by the President, who declared that 864 ships with a total tonnage of 2,000,000 entered ports of the Republic last year.
Free city delivery by the Liberian post office was inaugurated for the first time last year.
Over 1,500 men were called out for camp last year in the Liberian National Guard, exclusive of the Liberian Frontier Force. The President recommends a larger appropriation for ammunition and equipment for the military forces.
Progress is also noted in the building of roads and the President recommends an annual grant of $200 for each chief in the interior who keeps his roads in good repair. Pupils in the 46 public schools number 2,704, according to the President's message with 46 teachers. In addition there are 17 native schools, five schools in the interior and 128 schools supported by missionaries. In the missionary schools there are 317 teachers.

Rockingham N. C., Aug. 8.—Hassie Johnson was sentenced to thirty days in the chain gang for beating a ride on a freight train, after a mob had nearly lynched him thinking he was James Jones, said to have shot and killed a white man at White Store township.
JAMAICA LABORERS IN RIOT
Kingston, Jamaica, Aug. 8.—Two laborers were killed and 43 wounded when 80 members of the constabulary quelled a riot of 1,000 street working men here who demanded a minimum wage of $2 a day.

NO GRAVEYARD CAMPAIGN
No longer can the republican party say to the Negro voter: "You have been bought and paid for." No longer can he be frightened away from Davis and Bryan by the immemorial scare-crow of democratic antagonism to the black man's rights. Forgetting the things that are past we must press forward to the future.
The Negro politician will not be allowed to conduct his campaign in a grave yard, rattling the dry bones of Stevens and Sumner and Grant. The Negro wants to know "which way is your musket apinting today."—Kelly Miller.

Break Record of All Previous Years and Establish a Precedent Which It Is Hoped Will Be Maintained.
New York, August 7.—Robert W. Bagnall, director of branches of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has announced that sixty-eight branches of the N. A. A. C. P. in various parts of the country had exceeded their allotted quotas in the 1924 drive for funds, thus breaking the records of all previous years.
In announcing this achievement, Mr. Bagnall said:
"The record made by the branches is an indication of the growing recognition of the work the N. A. A. C. P. has been doing and it shows that colored people are desirous of supporting and sustaining that work."
The Omaha branch is among the 68 on the honor roll.
LOUISIANA LEGISLATURE
ENACTS SEGREGATION LAW;
N.A. A. C. P. TO TEST LEGALITY
(By Associated Negro Press)
New York, August 7.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth avenue, has received word that the Louisiana state legislature has enacted a measure, which has been signed by Governor Fuqua, providing for the segregation of colored and white people in communities having a population of 25,000 or more.
The N. A. A. C. P. announced, upon receipt of the report that the law would seem to be in violation of the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States as handed down in the Louisville segregation case, but that the Louisiana measure would be fully investigated with a view to taking legal action.
G. W. Lucas, president of the New Orleans branch of the N. A. A. C. P., who reports the new law, writes: "This bill evidently was prompted by protests against certain of our people who are purchasing property in districts heretofore known as white. The first known attempt on the part of the authorities to force this act will be met by protests from the New Orleans branch of the N. A. A. C. P."

CONCEDE COLORED VOTERS DECISIVE ELECTION FACTOR
Statisticians of Both Parties Agree
That Race Vote Will Largely
Determine Presidential
Election
NEBRASKA DOUBTFUL STATE
Republicans, Democrats and Forces
of La Follette Will Maneuver
To Capture Votes In
Such States
Washington, D. C., Aug. 8.—Statisticians of both major parties are agreed that the colored vote will largely determine the outcome of the presidential election this year. It may continue the republican party in power or return the democrats, or throw the election into the House of Representatives.
Balance of Power.
They base their calculations upon an analysis of the voting strength of the Negro in the states they classify as doubtful. In them the number of qualified voters are about equally divided between the two old parties; but the colored vote is sufficiently large to swing any of these states into either the republican or democratic column.
The East is conceded to the republicans, the "Solid South" to the Democrats, and a majority of the Western states is divided between Coolidge and La Follette. New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Ohio, Indiana, Missouri and Nebraska are classified as extremely doubtful.
With three tickets in the field, the electoral votes necessary to give either the republican and democratic candidate a majority at the polls in November must be obtained in these extremely doubtful states. If not the election will be thrown into the House of Representatives with the possibility of the La Follette bloc in that body preventing a choice, in which event the Senate would elect a vice-president. A coalition of the La Follette forces with the democrats would probably result in the election of Senator Burton K. Wheeler, La Follette's running mate.
In these doubtful states the colored vote constitutes the balance of power. Consequently, both major parties—and the La Follette progressives as well—plan an intensive campaign among the colored voters.
Difficult Task.
Ordinarily this colored vote is republican. But since the return of the republican party to power, there has been a decided tendency to ignore party lines. Hence, the job of the republican campaign management will be to keep this vote in alignment.
But this will be a difficult task. With a nominee like John W. Davis in the field, the republican party will have to work assiduously to prevent defection in the ranks of its colored vote. The fact that Mr. Davis when he was solicitor general of the United States argued the Oklahoma disfranchisement case in the Supreme Court of the United States, resulting in the late Chief Justice White handing down a decision declaring all such laws unconstitutional, will make his candidacy appealing to the colored electorate.
Besides there will be a flank attack by the La Follette forces. As yet they have offered no special inducements to the colored voter to come into their ranks. There is nothing in the platform on which he is running of special interest to them. But the Negro will be asked to vote for the La Follette ticket as a protest against the treatment which he has been accorded by both parties in comparatively recent years.
No Plans.
As yet none of the three organizations, which will seek the colored vote, has worked out the plans for its campaign among the colored electorate. William M. Butler, the chairman of the republican national committee, is here conferring with the President and party leaders. He may make some announcement of his intentions in this regard before departing.
The newly elected democratic chairman, Clem L. Shaver, is also here. He is familiarizing himself with the work of the committee. At the first opportunity he will take up this phase of the campaign, which is something new in the history of the democratic party.
The La Follette campaign will be in the hands of an executive committee, the personnel of which will be announced soon. It is not probable that a Negro will be on this committee.

REFORMATION OR REVOLUTION
THAT ABUSES have developed in both the major parties cannot be denied. That both the democratic party and the republican party are largely subservient to and influenced, if not absolutely controlled by, "predatory wealth" will be frankly admitted by those who observe the trend of affairs and believe in candor. This accounts for the rising tide of insurgency of which certain political leaders are the forerunners. There are obvious reasons for the political discontent which is agitating the country. It is folly to ignore it. This discontent is the birthpang of a new order. This travail must issue in a new creature. What will it be, Reform or Revolution? Will the major parties so reform the abuses which have developed within them that they will regain the confidence and loyalty of the masses and become in effect a new creature or will they be swept aside and an entirely new party come into being and power? Reform is better than Revolution, but some times reform can only come to pass through revolution. What will be the issue of the present political travail the future alone will reveal.
"SOME OTHER FELLOW"
"AFTER I am dead, I want the doctors to cut me open and see just what was the matter with me, because from my case they may be able to learn something that will help them to cure cancer in some other fellow." This was what "Missouri Jack," who died last week with cancer told his wife. His wishes were carried out. Whether the doctors learned from his case anything that may help them "cure cancer in some other fellow" we do not know. What we do know is that this man, suffering as he was, was animated by a lofty purpose when he expressed the desire that his case

DON'T BE FOOLED
NO AMERICAN of color should be fooled by the hooded hoodlums who say the yare not opposed to Negroes. They lie when they say so and know they are lying. Perhaps they don't know they are lying, but simply haven't brains enough to understand that such a statement directly contradicts their pledge to faithfully do all things "for the eternal maintenance of WHITE SUPREMACY", which, of course, is to be interpreted in the light of the Fifth "Interrogatory" of the

THE WHATNOT COLUMN
(By Robert P. Edwards for The Associated Negro Press.) What Was the Shadrack Incident of 1851?
One of the earliest incidents to arise under the fugitive slave law was that of Shadrack, a Negro employed in a Boston coffee house, Shadrack was arrested for having escaped from slavery, but as Massachusetts had forbidden the use of her jails for fugitive cases the government authorities were obliged to detain their "prisoner in the United States courtroom. Almost immediately a mob of Negroes broke into the building and rescued the prisoner and slipped him into Canada. Great excitement was caused in Washington, and five of the rescues were indicted and tried, but the jury disagreed. The incident showed that the new law would be enforced with difficulty in Massachusetts in view of the fact that the rescuers had the whole support of "The Vigilance Committee".
Who is Julius Rosenwald?
On January 1, 1911, Mr. Julius Rosenwald, president of the Sears-Roebuck Company of Chicago, made an offer of $25,000 to every city of the United States that would raise $75,000 for erecting a building for a colored Men's Christian Association. Up to the present time about twenty cities have accepted the offer and erected their buildings. Upon being interviewed as to why he, a Jew in religion, as well as race, would offer such large sums to maintain Christians institutions, Mr. Rosenwald replied, "I believe the Young Men's Christian Associations offer the best opportunity for an investment in the interest of a fully rounded development of young men and boys and seeing how little had been done for colored men, I feel it my duty to furnish a stimulus for a forward movement in their interest.
Who Was Known as "Queen of the Pancake"?
"Ie in town, honey", for years has been the byword in American households, and "Aunt Jemima", a name to be remembered wherever the pancakes flourished as the leading breakfast food, and all because Mrs. Nancy Green made the best cakes in the world. Mrs. Green, "Aunt Jemima" was born in Kentucky in 1834, and coming to Chicago as a nurse for the old Walker family attracted attention as a cook, to the extent that a milling concern searched her out, obtained her pancake recipe and induced her to make pancakes before the world, and for the edification of its palate in the great Chicago world's fair. She was a success and has since been known as "Queen of the Pancake", "Aunt Jemima" was killed in an automobile accident in the autumn of 1923, and was buried from Olivet Baptist church Chicago, the largest Baptist church in the world, and which organization she helped to found.
Mr. and Mrs. Frank J. Carey and family are visiting in Denver and Colorado Springs for a month.

The Woman's Challenge
The woman who paid her membership fee in the local N. A. A. C. P., after witnessing the outrageous treatment of Misses Anthony and Taylor sets an example for every Negro who is not a member of that organization.
This woman has at last got the kind of religion that millions of us surely need. The scales have fallen from her eyes. She has been ushered by a most fortunate change brought about by a most unfortunate case—she has been ushered thereby out of darkness into light. She sees the truth.
Our salvation lies in organized presentation of our case, in organized contest with injustice, in organized defense. This organized action must be intelligent, persistent, courageous, unselfish; it must have available the completeest facts and be directed by the wisest counsel. This is just the way the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is working at our tremendous problem. Every defunct local N. A. A. C. P. should be revived; every active local organization should increase its membership and activity, and in every place where there is no such organization one should be established.
The hour for action has struck. The duty of salvation faces 15,000,000 Negroes in America.
OLD U. S. CLOTHES WORN
BY SOUTH SEA ROYALTY
Apparel Given to King and Queen by American Worn on State Occasions.
Port Angeles, Wash.—A South Sea island king and his consort still "strut" in some ancient garments an American navigator gave them 23 years ago. As the clothes are worn only on state occasions they are certain to last another quarter century.
In 1901, Capt. and Mrs. Harry Thompson were married and set sail for a trading trip to the Palmerstone islands in the South Pacific ocean, 2,000 miles from Sydney, N. S. W. Following a period of serious drought the 13 islets of the group faced a food shortage at the time when Captain Thompson hove to. The schooner was met by a sampan bearing the king and queen, both begging pitifully for food and gifts of clothing. The royal stomachs were promptly filled, then the task of draping the weather-beaten shoulders of the honor guests.
Long anxious to gain the confidence of these rulers, Captain Thompson took the black, single-breasted coat, the wedding habit of the mariner, while Mrs. Thompson parted with her gray crepe gown bedecked with silvery spangles and passed them on to the royalty.
For 20 years the Thompsons enjoyed prosperous trading with the islands and almost from the day they beffended the king the islands began to recover from the dry spells of several years.
Now there is a gigantic business with many countries for the Palmerstones produce every tropical fruit, pearls, coffee, tea, spices and coral.
Recently the Thompsons, now retired from sea-faring, again visited their South Sea friends. The king donned the old coat, now frayed and with but few buttons remaining; the queen wore the old-fashioned spangled skirt, and thus arrayed entertained their company.
Kills Eagle With a Six-Foot Spread
Savannah, Ga.—Grouped around a large eagle that was brought to Savannah by B. Shuman, who killed it near his home at the Montgomery crossroads, about six miles from Savannah, a neat display has been made in a show window.
The bird, which measures about six feet from tip to tip with wings outstretched, occupies the entire width of the window. At his feet is draped the American flag, on which he stands, and in connection with this, dollar bills with the real American eagle stamped thereon are pasted on the window. Also other bills are to be seen bearing the picture of George Washington, father of the country of which the eagle is emblematic.
The fact that the eagle was killed in this vicinity is considered as unusual, as is the window display. Mr. Shuman, who lives at Lamler's Park and Poultry farm, was at first frightened when the big dark bird appeared in the sky over his porch. And about 1,000 chickens nearby were even more frightened.
Shuman killed him with one shot from a considerable distance. From the size of the eagle's claws and bill he looks fully capable of capturing and flying away with a good-sized pig.

Chapter Thirteen of the Revised Statutes of Nebraska, Civil Rights—Enacted in 1893:
Sec. 1. CIVIL RIGHTS OF PERSONS. All persons within this state shall be entitled to a full and equal enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities and privileges of inns, restaurants, public conveyances, barber shops, theatres and other places of amusement; subject only to the conditions and limitations established by law and applicable alike to every person.
Sec. 2. PENALTY FOR VIOLATION OF PRECEDING SECTION. Any person who shall violate the foregoing section by denying to any person, except for reasons of law applicable to all persons, the full enjoyment of any of the accommodations, advantages, facilities, or privileges enumerated in the foregoing section, or by aiding or inciting such denials, shall for each offense be guilty of a misdemeanor, and be fined in any sum not less than twenty-five dollars, nor more than one hundred dollars, and pay the costs of the prosecution.

"A restaurant keeper who refuses to serve a colored person with refreshments in a certain part of his restaurant, for no other reason than that he is colored, is civilly liable, though he offers to serve him by setting a table in a more private part of the house.

Advertising Talk
Much common sense or tact,
Yet every time she lays an egg
She cackles forth the fact.
A rooster hasn’t got a lot
Of-intellect to show,
But none the less most roosters have
Enough good sense to crow.
The mule, the most despised of beasts,
Has a persistent way
Of letting folks know he’s around
By his insistent bray.
The busy little bees they buzz,
Bulls bellow and cows moo,
The watch dogs bark, the ganders quack,
The doves and pigeons coo.
The peacock spreads his tail and squacks,
Pigs squeal and robins sing
And even serpents know enough
To hiss before they sting.
But man, the greatest masterpiece
That nature could devise, ‘
Will often oR and hesitate
Before he'll advertise, i
Merchants who are wise i
And want coe trade
Use THE MO! R to advertise ay
And thus their fortune’s made. |. ae

$1,600,000 FOR FOREST ROADS
To Be Spent Within National Parks of Seven Western States.
Washington.—Nearly $1,000,000 has just been allotted by the forest service, Department of Agriculture, for the construction of highways within or adjacent to the national forests of seven states in the Far West: Idaho, Montana, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Nevada and New Mexico. The largest state appropriation for this work is $418,000 for Idaho, Montana comes second with an allowance of $375,000. Arkansas receives $293,000 and Colorado $247,000. In Idaho, six miles in the Lolo pass section of the Selway forest will be built at a cost of $100,000. For improving nearly seven miles of highway along the Northern Pacific road in the Coeur d'Alene forest $45,000 has been allotted, with $5,000 additional offered by the state. This road is a link in the Yellowstone trail. For the extension of the Ketchum-Clayton road to the town of Ketchum, a distance of about seven miles, $50,000 has been set aside.
One of the important projects involves the construction of three and a half miles along the Elk City highway within the Nez Perce national forest, for which $75,000 has been allotted. This road is expected to be especially beneficial to the mining community around Elk City, as well as highly desirable for the better protection of the Nez Perce Forest. The North Fork-Payette highway, within the Payette national forest, will be extended from Gardena to Horseshoe Bend, a distance of about five miles, at an estimated cost of $97,000. In the Caribou national forest an addition of five miles to the Freedom-Soda Springs road will be made at a cost of $16,000.
Improvements in Montana.
In Montana about thirty-six miles of road will be constructed or improved, most of which is important from the tourist and scenic standpoint. One project is the building of thirteen miles of the Tarkio flat section of the Yellowstone trail, adjacent to the Lolo national forest, to cost $60,000.
For continuing work on the Belton-Java road and extending four miles from its present terminus to Garry, $100,000 has been set aside. The road serves the Flathead national forest. In the Gallatin national forest grading will be done on about six miles on the southern end of the West Gallatin road leading to the boundary of the Yellowstone national park.
Another project will be the improving of over three miles of the Yellowstone Canyon highway leading through Absaroka national forest to the northern entrance of the Yellowstone national park. The sum of $70,000 has been allotted. When completed it will eliminate three bad hills and several grade crossings. The largest project in Arizona will be the construction of 23 miles between Flagstaff and the east boundary of the Coconino national forest. The road forms an important link in the state highway system.
The sum of $30,000 has been allotted to build eight miles along the Grand Canyon highway within the Kalibah national forest, beginning at the town of Fredonia. Another item is for $11,228 to complete eight miles of the Prescott-White Spar road in the Prescott national forest. Another important work involves the completion of 86 miles in the Clifton-Springerville section of the Apache national forest, for which $73,000 has been allotted.
Highway Work in Colorado.
In Colorado, $775,000 has been allotted for widening the Durango-Silverton highway within the San Juan national forest. It is part of the state highway system. The improvements will be made in the Molas Lake, Lime Creek and Cascade sections. The most expensive road work on the Independence Pass highway will be undertaken by the construction of about two miles of road beginning at the east end of the Weller grade section, in which $50,000 has been allotted and an additional $8,000 is expected from state funds.
Within the Pike and Leadville forests four miles of standard 18-foot road will be built at an estimated cost of $67,000. For five miles of 12-foot roadway in the Douglas forest area the sum of $55,000 has been allotted.
For the improvement of 36 miles of forest roads in New Mexico $180,000 has been allotted. One project calls for $20,000 to be spent in completing the highway from Canoncito to Pecos, a distance of slightly over 11 miles, which serves the Santa Fe national forest. In the Carson national forest 18 miles of road will be placed in satisfactory shape to meet present traffic demands at a cost of $60,000.
Between Culebra hill and Pajarito canyon, a distance of about seven miles, the road will be rebuilt at a cost of $80,000. This road will make the Fríoles canyon, one of the principal features of the Bandeller national monument, accessible over the new bridge at San Idelfono. The new route will eliminate Buckman hill and Buckman bridge, both of which are in poor condition. It is within the Santa Fe national forest.
In Dixie Forest
IN DIXIE FOREST.
In Utah, where $45,000 will be spent, the chief project involves twenty-eight miles in the Dixie national forest between Cedar City and Duck Lake, in iron county, and several miles in Kane county. Nearly eleven miles will be built in the Fillmore forest, and a bridge will be constructed over the Provo river in the Uinta and Wanatch forests.
More than $44,000 will be spent in Nevada, one project amounting to $80,000 for four miles along the Austin-West road in the Tokyo national forest. This project links up with the construction of six miles of the road authorized a year ago, and $8,000 will be used in surveying twelve miles along the Milton-Poncho highway.
The sum of $118,000 has been appro
prated to improve seven miles of highways in the Tongass national forest of Alaska and for surfacing four miles from Sitka to Indian Creek the sum of $23,000 has been set aside. The territorial road commission will also contribute $2,000.
The sum of $95,000 has been allotted for the construction of two and a half miles of highway from a point near Skagway to a connection with the Blackett road. This road will be important from a scenic standpoint, especially if it be extended to the international boundary.
For improvements in the Minnesota national forest, $17,000 will be expended in surfacing the Deer River road with gravel throughout its length of nineteen miles and a budge will be built across the Cut Foot-Sloux river. An additional $23,000 will be furnished by state authorities. To construct fifteen miles of the Ely-Finland highway from the Lake county line to Isabelle Post office $18,000 has been approved.

Scots Balk at Fee to See Scone Stone
London.—Scotsmen, through one of their members in parliament, are kicking because they, among others, must pay sixpence when visiting Westminster abbey to view the Stone of Scone, which forms the seat of the coronation chair. According to legend, this stone was Jacob's pillow at Bethel, and in the year 840 it was taken to Scone, in Scotland, from Tara, home of the Irish kings. All the Scottish kings were crowned on it until 1290, when Edward the First of England had it brought to Westminster, where all the British sovereigns have since been crowned. The Scotsmen admit that, in viewing the stone, one gets a lot of history for a "saexpence." Nevertheless, they want parliament to prevail upon the Westminster clergy to permit the public to view the "Stone of Destiny" for nothing, or send it home to Scotland, where it belongs.
The English argument is that in England the stone is in its proper setting, inasmuch as it seems to be fulfilling the old prophecy that, where the Stone of Sone rests, there the Scottish race shall rule.
Turk Court Rules Poker
London. — A Constantinople court has decided that poker is not a game of chance, according to the Daily Mall's correspondent in the Turkish city. After hearing a gambling case, in which the defendants were alleged to have violated the law by playing poker, the court held there had been no gambling because chance did not enter into the competition. According to the decision, poker is now permissible in Turkey. The public prosecutor, however, disagrees with this definition of the five-card pastime and has announced he will appeal to a higher court.
Slaughtering Coyotes
Broken Bow, Neb.—June was a record month for coyote scals in this country. Since May 24 539 scals were brought in to the county clerk's office, 427 of them coming in during the first 16 days of June. They are coming from all parts of the country, which shows that the people are making a determined effort in every section to kill the animals.
Henry Ford Buys Two
More Historic Homes
Boston.—Henry Ford has bought two more important New England landmarks. Two early homes at North Kingston, R. I., built about the middle of the Seventeenth century, already are on their way to Sudbury, Mass., where they are to be rebuilt. Sudbury in the site of the famous Longtellow Wayside inn, which Ford owns. The houses are known as the Sanford and Congdon places. The Sanford place was erected about 1650. Richard Smith built the Congdon place as a trading post in 1650.
Air-Sea Bomber Success

SAO PAULO, CITY OF MODERN IDEAS
SAO PAULO, CITY OF MODERN IDEAS
Prosperous and Beautiful Capital of Richest of Brazil's 20 States.
Washington.—Sao Paulo, Brazil, scene of a rebel uprising, is the source of the morning aroma from millions of steaming coffee cups all over the world, remarks a bulletin from the Washington headquarters of the National Geographic society.
"Sao Paulo, the city, is the prosperous and beautiful capital of the richest of Brazil's 20 states. The city has half a million people. The state of Sao Paulo is larger than all New England and Pennsylvania combined. It comprises only one-thirty-second part of Brazil's vast area, but contains one-eighth of the country's population.
"To the visitor it seems as if the state had two major products, coffee and—statistics! Its aggregate acreage of coffee trees exceeds the combined areas of Delaware and Rhode Island. There are more than seven coffee trees in the state for every man, woman and child in the United States. At 30 cents a pound, the world pays Sao Paulo about $340,000,000 annually for her 1,135,000,000 pounds of coffee produced. As a specialized wholesale grocery her coffee business is only to be compared with Cuba's sugar crop.
"Geography, religion and romance are strangely blended in Sao Paulo's coffee. Solomon, for all his wisdom, overlooked a potential source of great wealth, for coffee is generally believed to have originated in Abyssinia, where Solomon's descendants reign to this day. It was not introduced into Brazil until 1723.
"A Portuguese sailor was the Captain John Smith of Sao Paulo. He married the South American Pocahontas, daughter of the chieflin Tiblirca. That was about 1500. Then came Jesuit missionaries, who are accredited founders of the state, and when they celebrated their first mass on the anniversary of the conversion of St. Paul they named the country for that apostle.
Corn and Potato Move North.
"Curiously enough, coffee rules in Brazil, while two indigenous South American crops, corn and the 'Irish' potato, are mainstays in North America.
"Sao Paulo, the city, is purposefully modern, so much so that some of the social and engineering projects were put into effect there while they were still 'paper programs' in North America.
"For years now, when a new schoolhouse is built in Sao Paulo, the school physicians have passed upon the lighting, the kinds of seats to be used and other hygienic details. Indeed, they must even approve the text and its spacing in textbooks before they are adopted.
"An unusual sight of the city is the snake farm. The snakehouses, looking like beehives, cover a large tract. The snakes are the sources of serum used to treat sufferers from the bites of rattlesnakes, the deadly jaracas, and other venomous reptiles.
"The railroad from Sao Paulo to Santos, the world's foremost coffee port, is famous among engineers the world over. There is a drop of 2,000 feet in seven miles over one section Steel cables, stationary engines and especially-equipped locomotives are required for the 35-mile run between the two cities. There are 13 tunnels, but the trains emerge from each to disclose some surprising new panorama of wooded mountain, valley of banana or coffee trees, torrential stream or gorge of dizzy depth.
"The road is said to be one of the best-paying in the world. Since the dividends are limited by law, its earnings have gone into sumptuous stations, fine rolling stock and perfected equipment until one visitor remarked that all remaining to be done was the gliding of the tops of the telegraph poles.
Peculiar Geography.
"The steep railroad climb from Santos to Sao Paulo gives a hint to the peculiar geography of the state. For nearly 400 miles along its coast is a low belt, narrow in the north and widening to about eighty miles in the south. Here the weather is hot and moist and the crops are bannanas, coconuts, vanilla beans and cacao. This lowland is marked by a line of hills, back *g* which is that an undulating plateau, cooler and dryer, where the cof-
ree minds ideal growing conditions.
"Sao Paulo is notable for its varied architectures, ranging from chalet types, Moorish palaces and buildings of the French Renaissance period to modern office structures. Its outlying streets are as plenteously planted with trees and as well interspersed with flower-planted parks as Washington, D. C.
"The city has a remarkable theater, with a telescope roof. By means of an electric mechanism this roof may be removed in ten minutes and the building converted into an open-air auditorium. The orchestra chairs are removable, so that shortly after the curtain falls a ballroom is available for dancing."
Coughs, colds, nasal catarrh, stomach and bowel disorders are among the more common affections of the mucous linings which call for Pe-ru-na.

"The port of Santos is given over principally to shipping, but lacks the squail of many older ports. It has a beautiful beach, where the sand is packed so hard that automobiles may drive to the water's edge.
Jump of $600,000,000
in Farmers' Receipts
Chicago.—Net cash receipts of the American farmers this year will be over $000,000,000 above last year, says the research department of the American Farm Bureau federation. Nearly half is to be credited to the cotton crop.
Interest and taxes will probably be slightly less than last year.
"What the man on the farm gains from now on he can hold for himself," says the report.
Are you self-conscious about the impression you make on people?
PERSONAL appearance has a lot to do with the way you feel. Clothes count, of course. But still there is one thing so many people overlook—something that at once brands them as either fastidious or careless—the teeth. Now 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 clams teeth a new way of polishing the teeth, polishing ingredient that really cleans without scratching the enamel—a difficult problem finally solved.
