The Rev. John Williams, Former Rec-
tor of St. Barnabas Church,
Passes Away at an
Advanced Age
AN OUTSTANDING FIGURE HERE
In The Early Days of Omaha He Did Faithful and Appreciated Pastoral Work Among Colored People
Rev. John Williams, for thirty-seven years rector of St. Barnabas' church, this city, and who for a number of years prior to the ordination of the Rev. John Albert Williams, also served as priest-in-charge at St. Philip's Mission, passed peacefully away at his home, 4804 Dodge street, at 7:30 last Friday night, in the nineteenth year of his age.
Father Williams was born in Ireland, but came as a lad to the United States, and was reared in Lynn, Mass., where the family settled. He learned the machinist's trade, at which he was employed for a number of years. Obyeing the call to the priesthood, he entered the Seabury Divinity School at Fairbault, Minn., where he supported himself during his studentship by working at his trade during vacation. In due course of time he was graduated and ordained to the diaconate and priesthood by Bishop Whipple of Minnesota in 1868. The same year he became rector of St. Luke's, Hastings, Minn., coming thence in June, 1877, to St. Barnabas', Omaha, which then numbered thirty communicants. These were the only two parishes he held, St. Luke's, Hastings, for eleven years, and St. Barnabas' for thirty-seven years, resigning the latter in 1914 at the age of 80 years and being worthily succeeded by the Rev. Lloyd B. Holsapple, the present rector. While rector of St. Barnabas', Father Williams, for seven years, took the spiritual oversight of St. Phillip's Mission, where he showed himself a true pastor to this little flock; but he warmly welcomed all classes to St. Barnabas'. He was known as a "High Churchman", or Catholic, and as such he believed that his priesthood called him to the service of all men, and he would not tolerate foolish distinctions in the Church of God.
The following incident illustrates how he really believed in the catholicity of the Church: A young colored woman, who was a communicant of the Episcopal church came to Omaha from the South as maid in a prominent family. Her first Sunday here she attended an early celebration of the Holy Communion in St. Barnabas' church. After everybody else had received the Holy Communion Miss — came forward and received alone, altho there was plenty of room prior to this at the chancel rail.
Father Williams, as was his custom, greeted her as she was leaving the church, and asked her why she had waited to come up last and alone when there was plenty of room for her to kneel at the chancel rail before this. Her reply was: "Where I come from the colored people always have to wait for 'the second table' and receive the communion last, and that is why I waited."
Father Williams replied, "My dear Miss _____, we have no such custom here. In God's House there is no 'second table'. All His children are equal at His Altar. Whenever you come to the services at St. Barnabas', and I hope you will come as regularly as you can while you remain in Omaha, and desire to receive the Holy Communion come forward in your regular turn with the rest of the communicants and receive the Bread of Life. Remember that at St. Barnabas you, as God's child and a communicant of the Church, are always welcome. We have no second table but the one Table and Altar of our Lord for all children of the Church."
This incident is typical of the man and speaks volumes, and illustrates why Father Williams won and held such a warm place in the hearts of all sorts and conditions of men and became easily the first citizen of Omaha.
He was a man of ripe scholarship and reorganized as one of the outstanding priests of the American Episcopal Church. As a delegate to the General Convention he commanded a wide influence.
His funeral was held from St. Barnabas' Church, Monday morning at 9 o'clock, Father Holsapple officiating, Bishop Shayler being present in the chancel and giving the blessing, the

bishop having celebrated a requiem at 8 o'clock; the Rev. John Albert Williams at 7:30 and the Rev. James Noble at 7. The funeral service was the regular burial office from the Prayer Book with Requiem Eucharist. There was no eulogy and no flowers, but such a simple, sweet, comforting service as befitted the life of this Godly and modest priest. Interment was at Prospect Hill. The following clergy acted as pallbearers, Rev. S. Mays Hales of Lincoln; Rev. William A. Mulligan of Beatrice; Rev. James Noble of Neligh; Rev. John L. Freeborn of Albion; Rev. Wilbur S. Leete of Plattsmouth; Rev. Bernard Shulte, retired, former chaplain of St. Luke's, New York; Rev. D. J. Gallagher and Rev. John Albert Williams of Omaha.
Father Williams is survived by his widow and four sons, William and Edward D., of New York; and Lyman and Leslie of Omaha.
AGREE TO RUN
NEGRO FOR CONGRESS
(By The Associated Negro Press)
New York City, Apg. 22.—The movement to nominate a Negro for Congress in the 21st congressional district which comprises Harlem and has a majority of colored voters, received a big impetus when the republican county committee met recently and agreed to name a colored candidate. Various elements in the district have been trying to further such an effort for some time. Committees representing several local political and civic organizations waited recently upon Wm. Pickens of the N. A. A. C. P. urging him to permit his hat to be thrown in the ring declaring him an ideal candidate not only because of his past record but because of his ability as a writer, thinker and platform orator. It was rumored that the LaFollette group had held out an offer to back him if he ran independently. Some effort was also made in behalf

LA FOLLETTE'S STATE
CHAIRMAN TO NAME
A NEGRO ELECTOR
Chicago, Ill., Aug. 18.—Following a conference between Charles J. McGowan, state chairman of the LaFollette organization, and G. Victor Cools, national manager of the Negro division, at their headquarters, 67 West Madison street, Chicago, it was announced that a Negro elector will be named for the state of Illinois. This is the first time, since the reconstruction period, that a Negro will be so honored. The La Follette organization believes, and puts into practice its belief, that the Negro is an American citizen and must share with other groups in the distribution of the social income. The colored people will be represented in all branches of the organization by members of their race. Accordingly, they will have representation on both the state and Cook county executive committees.
Mrs. Alice Dunbar-Nelson, the most prominent and fearless woman of the race, has been appointed eastern organizer of colored women as well as a member of the national council. In an interview between Mrs. Nelson and Congressman John M. Nelson, national manager, the congressman expressed his absolute confidence in Mrs. Nelson's ability to handle the situation in the east. Mack C. Spears, an energetic young Negro, has been appointed an organizer of La Follette-forPresident Club. He will operate in Illinois, Missouri, Colorado, Utah and California.

President Moton in Excellent Address
Calls Attention to Business
Possibilities Within
Chicago, Ill., Aug. 22.—(By the Associated Negro Press.)—In one of the most remarkable opening addresses ever delivered at a convention of the National Negro Business league, Dr. Robert R. Moton, president, brought his thousands of hearers, assembled in the spacious auditorium of Wendell Phillips high school to an inspired appreciation of the newer opportunities and responsibilities of the Negro in business.
He declared that the times had changed, that twenty-five years ago the problem was to get the Negro into business, to help him overcome his "timidity", but that no such issue confronts him today, there being a necessity now to "stress the need for honest, capable, expert management as a basis for credit and a warrant of confidence on the part of the business world in the ability and competency of the American Negro."
Dr. Moton was frequently interrupted by applause as his wholesome remarks struck a responsive chord in the men and women assembled who had sensed in their own business relations the spirit of the points he drove home.
He pleaded for preparedness, for a race comparable to the five wise virgins who were ready. He referred to possibilities for the race by holding that "it is conservatively estimated that there are twenty million dollars of Negro money hid under mattresses, behind bricks in the arch, buried in earthen jars and in otherways secreted around the home.
"I know of one home," he asserted,
"where the wife and children knew that the father had at least six thousand dollars. He was taken ill and went out one night, telling his wife he was going to hide it. They had good reasons to believe he had a good deal more hidden away elsewhere. He died the next day, and though they scoured the place inside and out, they were never able to locate the money."
Dr. Moton recounted in some detail both the growth of the league and the growth of Negro business from what they both were twenty-five years ago, Negro business now, he emphasized, may be measured in figures of millions, and does not begin to approximate what it may attain in the next few years. In connection with the future growth of Negro business reference was made to the new million dollar Negro Finance Corporation, and the hope was expressed that the present meeting of the league would result in the first complete list of permanent officers and committees.
The stand of the Negro press in regard to the corporation was praised as was the unanimity with which Negro newspapers fought for fair play for the Negroes, despite private differences.
At the beginning of his speech Dr. Moton paid high tribute to Chicago as a "city in which the progress of the race does not suffer by comparison with any other city in the country, with its multifarious business enterprises, with two great banking institutions—the Binga State and the Douglass National bank owned and operated by our people; the Liberty Life and other successful insurance companies, with taxicab companies, not to mention the great printing establishment of R. S. Abbott and the Chicago Defender, the headquarters of the Associated Negro Press, with scores of successful professional men and women, and the unnumbered beautiful Christian homes."

DSCRIMINATION
ON STREET BUSSES
MEANS LEGAL FIGHT
Test Case Brought Against Baltimore
Street Railway Company for
Refusing Colored
Passengers.
Baltimore, Aug. 22.—Whether the
United Railway company, operating
busses on the public streets can ex-
clude passengers because they are col-
ored will be fought out in the civil
courts of Baltimore.
Action with this in view was taken
last week when G. S. Seabrook, 304
N. Gilmor street, instituted a damage
suit against the United Railways com-
pany for refusal of one of its con-
ductors to allow him to enter one of
the busses operated by, this corporation
on Charles street.
Barred by Driver.
According to the petition of Seabrook, filed in the City court he was
not allowed to enter the buss when he
presented his fare at the corner of
Baltimore and Charles street at 12:20
p. m., July 12. This action, according
to Davis and Evans, who represent
Seabrook, is a specific violation of the
terms of the franchise granted
the company and against the ruling of the
Public Service company.
Various civic organizations have long sought someone to make a fight against the Jim Crow buss line in the city operated by the United Railways. Hundreds of persons, men, women and children, have been embarrassed by the United's employees who have refused to take fares from Negroes and ordered them off the busses. Strangers have been shocked at the roughness of the treatment. Protest made to the Public Service commission elicited the reply that the United has no authority under the rulings to refuse to haul or to segregate Negro passengers. Among lawyers downtown, it is understood that the United has not a

Former Episcopalian Rector, Now Prelate of African Orthodox
Church Startles

GENEOLOGY SUPPORTS CLAIM
Hamitic Blood Traceable In the Ancestry of The Savior, Who Would Be Jim Crowed In Dixie.
New York, Aug. 22.—If Christ ever went below the Mason and Dixon line, he'd be jim crowed," declared Bishop George McGuire, of the African Orthodox church, who startled newspaper men in an interview here recently.
Twenty years ago Bishop McGuire was a priest of the Episcopal church, a colleague of the late Bishop Greer of New York and one-time rector of St. Thomas' church in Philadelphia, the oldest Negro Protestant Episcopal church in America. He had preached in Trinity church, New York, when Bishop Manning was its rector, and in St. George's church when John Pierpont Morgan, Jr., sat in the congregation.
When he went to Arkansas in 1903 as an archdeacon he ran into Jim Crowism and it left scars on his spirit. In 1919, when the white Bishop Overs was consecrated as successor to the black Bishop Ferguson in Liberia, a Negroes' country, it opened the old wounds.
The bishop is a large man, with a rumbling bass voice, finely shaped hands capable of a magnificent gesture, and a mobile face that is transformed with-every memory of the indignities he has suffered and the hopes he has conceived.
In cerise-colored biretta and lavender soutane, with a heavy pectoral cross at his bosom and an amethyst episcopal ring on his finger, he makes a striking picture.
"God Not Really Black"
"Of course," said Bishop McGuire,
"God is not a Negro. A spirit is nothing physical. But in one's prayers one must vision some one to listen, and we can think only of some one in huma form.
"There is no doubt, however, according to the genealogies of Jesus given in the New Testament, that He had black blood in His veins. In addition to the blood of Shem, He had also the blood of Ham. The Scriptures bear record that Tamar, the mother of Pharez, and Rahab, mother of Boaz, were Canaanites, Canaan being the fourth son of Ham. From Pharez and Rahab runs the pedigree of Christ.
"And since by the standards set up by white men one drop of Negro blood makes a man a Negro, if Christ with this known pedigree were living today in Dixie the color line would be drawn against Him."
Apostolic Succession
When Bishop McGuire founded his new church the older churches smiled. "Where can he get the apostolic succession as bishop?" they asked. In time he got it. He was consecrated in 1921 by Archbishop Vilatte, of the old Catholic church, and so traces his apostolic succession through Ignatius III., 126th successor of St. Peter as bishop and patriarch of Antioch. The African Orthodox church now has two bishops, nine priests, eight deacons, two deaconeses and other workers and 21 congregations with 2,500 communicants in Canada, Trinidad, Cuba and the United States. A third bishop is soon to be consecrated.

No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
CALVIN COOILIDGE'S speech or acceptance is characteristic of the man. It is tere, logical, direct and unequivocal. It states plainly and frankly his position upon measures proposed in the platform. It is marked by honesty and sincerity. The address first calls attention to the tremendous task bequeathed to the republican part yin 1921 and to the earnestness and ability with which the task was undertaken, as measured by results, concretely and concisely stated, in his epigrammatic style. These facts demand fair consideration. It passes then in rapid review, the subjects of corruption in public office, immigration, the tariff, the world court, the farm question, reduction of governmental expenses, economy in election expenses, and law enforcement, and under the latter is included a federal law against lynching. In leading up to the latter, President Coolidge takes the opportunity of referring in complimentary terms to the progress of the colored race. Well meant, as no doubt this reference is, it impresses The Monitor as having been sort of "dragged in by the heels"; nevertheless, we are grateful that attention is called to the fact that "They (Americans of color) are doing a great work in the land and are entitled to the protection of the Constitution and the law." In the discussion of the large questions of public policy, as touching domestic problems—which he places as paramount—and international relationship, President Coolidge discloses a statesmanlike grasp of the situation and advocates a sane and workable policy which we feel quite sure will win the commendation of the American people. The speech cannot by the wildest exaggeration be considered as a playing to the galleries. It is characteristic of the man for its terseness, directness, comprehensiveness and conservatism.

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.

JOHN WILLIAMS, PRIEST
AT EVENTIDE on Friday last as the sun was gently sinking behind the western hills, the great soul of Father John Williams entered into the rest which he had so richly earned, ardently desired, and patiently and trustfully awaited. The sunset that day was glorious, irradiating the soft azure sky with crimson and gold and sapphire blue, leaving, as it purple into twilight, a soft, yet radiant afterglow. How fitting it was that he should pass at such a time. For fifty-five years he had been a faithful priest, for forty-six years of which he had actively exercised his ministry among all sorts and conditions of men, in the spirit of his Divine Master. Thirty-seven years of this active ministry was as actor of St. Barnabas' this city, where high and low, rich and poor, black and white, were welcomed at the Altar as children of a common Father. At the age of eighty years he resigned his parish, and for nine years thereafter he was spared to guide with his council and help by his prayers those whom he always carried in his heart. At the age of eighty-nine he passed into the land beyond the ken but not beyond the faith of men where he will enjoy the fuller, larger life for which this, rightly lived, is but the preparation. There can be no regret at his passing. For those who knew him, as many of us did, there can be nothing but thanksgiving to our Heavenly Father, that He blessed the world with such a life and influence as that of John Williams, Priest.

STRESS THE BETTER SIDE
WEWOULD urge upon our people the importance of culture and refinement and the development of the solid, substantial and worthwhile things of life rather than the fleeting and superficial. There is undue attention given these days to the frivolous and superficial, rather than to the substantial. We are living in a jazzy age and we are all subject to its influence. We, as a group, temperamentally, are peculiarly inclined to fall under its spell and for this very reason we need to give the greater heed to counteracting influences which make for the development of strong and well-balanced character. Stress the better side.
SHOULD GET BUSY
THE LA FOLLETTE forces and our democratic friends have begun to get busy with colored voters. Republicans had better wake up. "Security is mortal's chiefest enemy." As The Monitor has said before the republican party, local, state or national all must not delude itself with the belief that it has a lead pipe cinch on the Negro vote.
HAVE FAITH IN COOLIDGE
THE MONITOR believes that a pretty good slogan for the country at this time is this, "Have Falth in Coolidge." The country needs at its head a man who is not easily stamped; a man who keeps his head while those around him are losing theirs and blaming it on him.

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.

¢ IT PAID HIM TO ADVERTISE
One of the most persistent advertisers in the history
of success was Robinson Crusoe. He knew what he wanted
—and he put up an advertisement for one. He flung a
shirt on a pole, at the top of his island, that; in the lan-
guage of the sea, was plain to every sea-faring man.
‘The circulation was small—there was no other medium
but Crusoe kept at it, despite the fact that he got no in-
quiries for a long time. He changed his copy—as one
garment after another was frayed out—and in the end got
what he wanted.
Suppose Crusoe had taken down that signal after a
time and declared—“Advertising doesn’t pay,” where would
he and his story be now?
Put up yor signal and keep it there. Crusoe adver-
tised under very discouraging circumstances. You've got
a sure thing—it is only necessary to have the patience,
persistence, and pluck of Robinson Crusoe—and the good
ship “Better Business” will soon tie up ‘longside your pier.
—Baltimore Afro-American.

MISS COTTRELL PRESENTED
IN MUSICAL RECITAL
Miss A. Eleese Cottrell, who re-
cently was given her bachelor’s degree
in music at Howard university, wa:
presented in recital at Zion Baptis
church, last Thursday night by the
Welcome Circle of the church. ‘The
audience was much smaller that the
talented young musician deserved
However, what it lacked in numbers
it compensated for in appreciation
Miss Cottrell presented a well-bal-
anced program which pleased her au-
dience and in which she showed her
self to be a pianist of ability. Her
numbers included the Moonlight. So-
nana by Beethoven; May Night by
Palmgren; ‘The Old Musical Box.by
Goxsens; Nocturne by Chopin; Pol-
naise No. 6 by Chopin and Rigolettc
Paraphrase by Liszt. Miss Cottrell
also contributed four vocal numbers:
‘The Song of India by Rimsky; At
Dawning by Cadman; Deep River by
Burleigh, and I'm So Glad Trouble
Don't Last Always by Burleigh. Miss
Cotterell appeared to a better advan-
tage in her plano numbers than in
the vocal selections. She is a young
musician of good promise, who by dil-
iget work can make a high place for
herself in the musical world.
FATHER OF REV.
RUSSEL TAYLOR DIES
AT HOME OF DAUGHTER
John Russel Taylor, father of the
Rev. Russel Taylor, pastor of St.
Paul's Presbyterian chureh, Omaha,
died at the residence of his daughter,
Mrs, Arthur Wilson at Lincoln, early
Monday morning, at the age of 86
years, The deceased was born in Cal-
loway county, Virginia, in April,
1888, where he was taught to read by
his young mistress. After freedom
he ‘moved to Montgomery county,
where all his children except two were
born. In 1881 he removed to Seward,
Neb., where he resided until 1921.
Mr. Taylor is survived by his widow,
six children, four sons and two daugh-
ters; 17 grandchildren and one great
grandchild. The sons are Nathan,
Otis R., Russel and Joseph T., and
the daughters, Mrs. Rosa Jones of
Omaha, and Mrs. Arthur Wilson of
Lincoln. The funeral was held Wed-
nesday afternoon from Brow’n funeral
chapel, Lincoln.
LUSTER PRICE
ADMITS PERPLEXITY
Luster Price, collector for The
Monitor, who is a star track man for
Central high school, admits that: it is
harder work RUNNING after delin-
quent subscribers than it is to win
honors on the cinder track. “Some
of these people keep you running back
and then don't pay you when they tel
you to come. Gee, why don't people
pay, something at least, for that would
help, when they tell a fellow to come?
‘And that’s not all; some people, after
you have trusted them for a year or
two, tell you that they ordered the
paper stopped. A fellow certainly
learns a lot of things in trying to col-
lect for a colored newspaper. How
can a fellow earn enough to help him
through school working on commission
when so many of these birds keep you

running and running and running, and
then won't pay? Luster admits his
perplexity, Can you blame him?
DEATH OF OTIS SHIPMAN
Otis Shipman, one of Omaha's most
‘substantial and highly respected cit
‘izens, died at Rapid City, So. Dak.
last Saturday morning after a five
weeks’ illness. His wife and two
daughters, his father and brother
Leslie, were at his bedside when he
passed away. Mr. Shipman, when he
left Omaha in June to be gone for the
summer on a large grading contract
was the picture of health, A few
weeks after reaching Rapid City he
was taken to the hospital where he
underwent an operation for appendi-
citis, Other complications were dis-
covered and physicians gave little hope
for his recovery. In spite of all that
medical skill, careful nursing and de-
voted attention by his wife could do he
passed away. He was brave and
cheerful until the last.
‘The body was taken-to the old home-
stead near Norfolk, Nebraska, where
he was born October 4, 1882, and
where his father and other relatives
live, for burial. ‘The funeral was held
‘Tuesday afternoon from the under-
taking chapel of Johnson and Then-
haus, atteded by a large concourse of
friends, who had known fim from
childhood, and several friends from
Omaha. ‘The pall bearers were neigh.
bor boys who has seen him grow to
manhood. Rey. John Albert Williams
officiated and interment, was in Pros-
pect Hill cemetery. Many beautiful
floral offerings were sent.
Mr. Shipman is survived by his
widow, two daughters, Thelma and
Madeline, his father, a prosperous
farmer of Norfolk; four brothers, two
sisters and other relatives.

deavorers were full of thetr subject—

‘“Selfishness—How I:-May Be Over-
come.” Gen, 13:1-18.
‘The Women’s Missionary Society

Continuing the inspirational dis-
courses upon which he has entered,
the pastor's morning tople will be—
“Not by Might Nor by Power"; even-
ing topie—" An Open Door”, this
especially for our young people who
so faithfully attend the evening serv-
ives.

SUN NOT NEEDED
BY THE FLOWERS
for the kindly sun, #0 long proclaimed
by observing poets, appears to be a
trifle exaggerated. A rose can be
made to grow and bloom under a
yellow electric light, or an artificial
Nght of blue, red, or any other color,
‘and it will still be a rose and look
Just about the same as if it had been
“Kissed by the gentle sunbeam.”
Experiments in raising plants under
colored light have been conducted jn
the past, and the experimenters have
emerged from their weirdly colored
greenhouse laboratories to report that
under blue, green, or purple light
plants failed to develop normally.
But as Dr. W. W. Garner of the
Departivent of Agriculture and his ax
sociates, H. A. Allard and Dr. R. A.
Steinberg, continued this remarkable
Work with the effect of light on plants
they got around to the question of col-
@red light with the interesting results
already mentioned.
Dr. Garner and Mr. Allard have al-
ready proved a revolutionary theory
to account for the fact that chryaan-
themums bloom in November, and com-
mon irises bloom in May, and poin-
settias bloom in December. Tempera-
ture had always been regarded as the
controlling factor in this question of
seasonal blooming. And yet, florists
had tried to make cosmos bloom in off
seasons in greenhouses by keeping the
temperature at a September level—
with no luck.
Length of Day Important.
“The important factor which has
deen overlooked,” says Dr. Garner, “is
the length of the day. When cosmos
are exposed to light for the number of
hours that a September day would give
them, they make haste to bloom.
Plants may be injured or benefited by
changes in temperature and in the
Intensity of light. Some are very sen-
sitive to these factors. But, in gen-
eral, life habits of plants do not de
pend on such uncertain conditions.
Bwery first day of September is the
game length, allowing for slight calen-
dar variations, and plants have been
‘under the influence of the unchanging
eycles of light for thousands of years;
0 {t Is not surprising that the plant
world is governed by them.”
‘This theory has been tested by gov-
‘ernment experiments on nearly 200
Yarleties of plant life, Including trees,
wild and cultivated flowers, farm crops
and weeds, Varieties that bloom when
tthe days are short are called by the
experimenters short-day plants, and
those that bloom under long light ex-
osure are called long-day plants. By
rolling trucks Iaden with specimens
fato dark houses, the day cin be short-
ened in some experiments, and by
Ughting greenhouses at night the days
can be lengthened for other tests.
At the government experiment farm
right now the scientists have, among
other exhibits, poinsettias and chrysan-
themums in bloom. In December they
have such plants as iris and coreopals
in full bloom. The blossoms are nor-
‘mal in all respects and some are su-
perior.
May Be Kept From Blooming.
Keeping a flower from blooming ts
easy enough by the new light theory.
Some cosmos grew up from seed dur-
ing the spring in a long-day green-
house that was illuminated from sun-
‘set to midnight. In June the plants
‘were moved out of doors where they
received only normal summer sunlight.
Not until October came and the days
‘were the right length for cosinos to
bloom did these specimens produce any
blossoms. The plants were then 15
feet high.
‘This is the freakish sort of thing
that sometimes happens when plants
are brought to the United States from
the tropics. Often these specimens
grow to ridiculous heights and never
Produce flowers or seed because the
sunlight ration is never just right for
those processes.
One of the most striking proofs of
‘the light theory Is a specimen which
bas a cluster of blossoms on one
branch and no flowers on another.
‘One branch of the plant was induced
‘to flower by giving it the exact light.
day necessary, whereas the other
branch was covered from the ght
during a part of each day. Both
branches got food and water from the
‘game soll; through the same stalk, but
‘the light rays affected only the spray
‘that was uncovered, The other spray
‘continued to grow normally, but with-
out producing buds.
From lengthening and shortening the
days for plants it seems only a step
to experimenting with artificial dag-

RECALLS BIG FIGHT
Jim Gillett Tells of Early

‘New York.—Capt. Jim Gillett of

about it. Capt. Jim Gillett is in town
and the Natural History museum's In-
@ians sulk in waxen dignity. The cap-
tain can't find even so much an a

But perhaps you don't know whe
Capt. Jim Gillett 1s,
Well, then, he was one of the fron-
ter battalion of the Texas Rangers in
the train-robbing Seventies. He was
‘marshal of Ei Paso in the early Elgh-
tes, when keeping the law in El Paso
was a mean job, requiring the rapid
and expert manipulation of explosive
hardware. Probably the captain has
“fit” more redskins than any one north
of the Rio Grande today.
For more than halt a century Cap-
tain Gillett fought redskins, punched
cows, kept the peace, and ranched tn
‘the wildest state. Now, for the first
time in his life he’s come No'th. He's
been doing New York. He sat in the
Hotel Commodore and reminisced of
old times, of when he fit the varmints
when no day was started right without
a bit of gun fighting.
‘The grizzled Indian fighter. now stx-
ty-elght, started shooting with an old
Enfleld musket some one brought home
from the Civil war. It was as long as
@ fence rail and twice as heavy. The
frontier boy had to shoot with a rest—
‘he couldn't hold it up. And, oh, how
It kicked!
The captain fought Comanches,
Kickapoos, Apaches, all deft fellows
with the scalping knife, but his first
brush with redskins came Just after
he had joined the frontier battalion,
Fifteen Lipans trom Old Mexico had
swooped down on a ranch and made
off with a herd of horses.
‘Thirteen rangers went after them
and Jim Gillett was among them.
They rode 40 to 60 miles a day.
‘They camped by accident in a nest of
rattlers and several horses were bitten.
Old Captain Robert never faltered
and after some days they came upon
the marauders and captured or killed
them after a wild fight. Gillett him.

BRENAS LIVE AND DIE
IN CATHEDRAL TOWER
Guardians of Bells in Mex-
jco’s Famous Church.
Mexico City.—Apart from the his
toric interest and architectural beauty
‘of Mexico City’s cathedral, the oldest
im Latin America, there is a human
interest attached to it.
At the western angle and between
the main structure and the lofty tower
there 1s a small set of apartments, in
which the custodian of the bells and
his family live. He Is named Francisco
de la Brena, forty-eight years old, and
has five children.
With him lives his widowed mother,
Emilia Vasquez de Ia Brena, who has
had her home in the tower since the
middle of the last century, and she has
not descended to the great plaza fac-
ing the cathedral for 48 years
Brena himself descends but rarely to
the sphere in which his fellow mortals
live and has not done so for the last
five years. All Brena’s children were
born in the tower and they never
have been outside of it. ‘The family's
backyard, with its usual allotment of
chickens, is located om the convex
Toofs of the church,
‘The third generation of Brena now
1s being brought up in its unique sur
roundings. The little ones, like thelr
father and grandfather, all doubtless
Jook with disdain on’ life “on the
level” and remain in thelr lofty refuge
from where they may gaze on the In-
comparable Valley of Mexico and on
Mexico City's fine Plaza de Ia Constl-
tuclon, always crowded with thousands
of human beings, who appear like
hungry ants in ai external seamper
for the necessities of life.
Brena, or the guardian of the bells
as he prefers to be styled, has seen
many tragic happenings in the great
plaza facing his abode and at the Na
tlonal palace, which runs at right
angles to the cathedral.
He looked down on the multitude
‘outside the palace in 188) when Gen
eral Diaz ceded to General Gonzales.
He has seen the entry and departure
from the palace of the Presidents of
Mexico from Sebastian Lerdo de Te
Jada, Porfirio Diaz, Manuel Gonzales,
General Diaz again, to Francisco Ma
dero, Venustiano Carranza, down te
Alvaro. Obregon.
Brena has no intention of leaving
his home, Born in the tower, he will
le there, His little son, now three
years old, will be his successor ae
Seuardian of the bells.”
