It reviewed briefly the work of the past year and dealt sanely and wisely with several practical matters making for racial uplift and stressing unity and co-operation along all lines. Wednesday night was an open session at which an admirable address of welcome was given upon behalf of the city by City Manager N. A. Kemmish, marked by an earnestness, cordiality and sincerity which made the visitors feel at home. It was befittingly responded to in well-chosen words by Trago McWilliams of Lincoln. The Rev. C. A.

C., Aug. 29.—The Bureau of Public Affairs, inaugurated at the recent General Conference of the A. M. E. Zion church, with Bishop E. D. W. Jones, of Washington, D. C., as its head, sends out, in its third weekly release, an appeal to the ministers and laity of the church to subscribe, support and aid Negro newspapers. The Negro church and the Negro press must work together in the education of the race, not only in religion, but in politics, in social dealings, in economics and in general uplift movements. The bureau urges its constitutency in particular and the race in general: FIRST To read Negro newspapers. SECOND—to create a demand for them at newstands in the country to sell Negro papers by asking for them weekly. THIRD—To aid Negro editors to secure news of the race, its progress and ventures by becoming a voluntary reporter in your community. Expose injustice; tell of relationship between the races; give out important happenings and let the world know us through our own mediums. We are not in position, just yet, to become members of the great press associations of the world, but we are able to form a voluntary news gathering associatin maong ourselves. No town should be without such a reporter. FOURTH—To subscribe for Negro magazines. FIFTH—We urge our ministers everywhere to emphasize from pulpits the necessity of having Negro newspapers in every Negro home. SOUTH SIDE NEWS Labor Day Monday, Sept. 1.

Mrs. Jones has visited Omaha relatives and friends at intervals since her marriage and residence in Wichita, but this is the first time since her infancy that Eunice has accompanied her.

TRAIN DISPATCHER ILLINOIS CENTRAL FOR HALF CENTURY Kelly, Colored Telegrapher, Handles Thirty-one Trains Daily Out of Carbandale Station HOLDS AN UNUSUAL POSITION Out in Carbondale, Illinois, on the main line of the Illinois Central railroad, in a telegraph booth, there sits a veteran telegraph operator, who has been tapping out the Morse alphabet for nearly fifty years. To be more accurate, on December 24, 1874, J. H. Kelly was given his chance to master the mysteries of the Morse code and the telegraph key. Since that time he has been a telegrapher for the Illinois Central. We met him last week. He was taking his first vacation. Hale and hearty, with every white glistening tooth that God had given him, and with an everlasting smile, Kelly, who is 73 years of age—and he looked like 37 instead of 37—grasped our hands in a grip that was without a tremble, and said "Howdy" in true Illinois style. On the Illinois Central Kelly handles about 31 trains a day which he has dispatched through his block for years and years without a single mischief. Little do travelers know, as they journey this route from the heart of the Missouri Valley to Chicago, when the semaphores swing up and down and the red signals change to green and yellow, that a colored telegrapher has given their train the O. K. on its thundering way. and over tisfac- part of e good con- They ride in ignorance at what they would consider an impossibility if they knew; and the Illinois Central offi- cials, who have been wise to the situa- tion for the full fifty years of Kelly's existence, know that Kelly is merely an efficient, tried and true telegraph- LEADERS OF W E HOME FOR F h's Athletes On Fin league Pennant.

Let everyone make it a civic duty to attend the games during this final stretch and help Barney Burch retrieve some of his heavy losses during the ARMOUR EMPLOYEES' PICNIC AT LAKEVIEW Armour and Company gave a picnic for their colored employees at Lakeview Park Monday afternoon. It was attended by over 2,000 people who enjoyed a most delightful time. The employees were given admission tickets which entitled them to a generous dinner and supper and free admission to all the concessions. There were sports of various kinds including races for fat men and fat women with valuable prizes for which there were keen and close contests. A large number availed themselves of the privilege of dancing. No untoward incident of any kind marred the pleasure of day. A street railway official told The Monitor that they had never had a more orderly or well-behaved crowd at this popular pleasure resort. MOTOR OVER TO ATTEND U. B. F. GRAND LODGE Dr. and Mrs. D. W. Gooden accompanied by Miss Teresa LaMertpool motored over to St. Joseph, Mo., last week to attend the Grand Lodge of the U. B. F.'s and S. M. T.'s. Dr and Mrs. L. E. Britt and family in their Durant sedan accompanied them to Hiawatha, Kans., en route to Higgins, Mo., where they went to visit Dr. Britt's mother. Miss Ruth Seay also motored over to St. Joseph in her Hudson. Dr. Gooden is the Grand Medical Director of the Order and Mrs. Gooden is Grand Keeper of the Finance of the Royal House. er. They've forgotten that he is a Negro. Kelly has economic brains as well as telegraphic speed and ability, and out of his $200 per month salary, he's managed to become the owner of a $22,000 home at 546 East 46th St., Chicago, where you can find him yourself on rest days, if you want to verify what we've just told you about him. Here's truly an example in ability, thrift and persistent effort. May he live long and prosper. WESTERN FIVE GAMES final Rush to Win Inver and Tulsa to Wallopers HOME RUNS--HAS 42 season.

P. Mahammitt, scoutmaster, closed their ten day outing at Camp Gifford last sunday afternoon and reluctantly left for home. Mr. Mahammitt spent the entire period at the camp, Dr. Morris spending a portion of the time there. The camp was in charge of the regular official staff and the boys received admirable care. Sunday afternoon at the Court of Honor badges and other honors were awarded the boys. Fourteen boys who had passed the tenderfoot tests were awarded badges for this degree; eight were awarded second class badges and sx, first class badges. In addition to these national badges Camp Gifford awards different colored felt diamonds, not for their intrinsic value, but for the honor attached to them for various matters such as cleanliness, table manners, cheerfulness, courtesy, general improvement, etc. These number seven. In addition to these there is a specially coveted mark of honor, a black diamond, which is awarded for general excellence. This coveted honor was awarded Wade McRaven. The next highest honor was awarded Forrest Pervins. Several of Athe scouts received all seven diamonds. A large number of parents and friends were present to see the scouts awarded their honors. A service was held at 10 o'clock by the Rev. John Albert Williams, of the Episcopal Church of St. Phillip the Deacon, who gave them a brief sermon on, "A Boy Who Helped The Savior."

Jackson, noted Virginia lawyer, died Wednesday morning here. PITTSBURG STRUTS HER STUFF (By the Associated Negro Press) Pittsburgh, Pa., Aug. 29.—This city has been put to the test of proving its boast that it is the ideal convention city and, therefore, rightly due the three big gathrings which are scheduled for a period scarcely covering a month. The Shriners have been to town with their conquering motto and the populace has capitulated. The appearance and deportment of the Masons now in session here has born a proportionate resemblance in brilliance and rectitude to the achievements in council of the various lodges working for the advancement of Masonry and the weal of the Negro race. One of the finest parades ever held in this city was given by the plumed Knights Templar. Blocks and blocks of the city's thoroughfares were black with onlookers craning their necks to catch a glimpse of the dazzling spectacle. But there has been more than a grand parade. At one of the sessions of the Shriner council it was voted to distribute $18,000 to widows and orphans of deceased Nobles. Another sum set aside by the council was $1,500 for prizes for drill teams of the patrol department of the organization, the consideration being advanced that the drill teams of the order are the fertile soil for the development of the ideas of organized coequence and disciplin. COTTRELL SUFFERS STROKE (By The Associated Negro Press) Pittsburgh, Pa., Aug. 29.—Charles Cottrell, famous Ohio political leader and a high figure in Shrine circles, collapsed while reading a report before the Shrine council here last week.

GROWING THANK YOU 77 Vol. X—No. 9 ATION y Fifty Years SILVER JUBILEE NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE SUCCESS Marks Turning Point In Life and Work of Organization Which Has Commercial Development of Race MOTON REELECTED PRESIDENT Reorganization Effected and Several Business Scholarships Established for Youth. (By The Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., Aug. 29.—The progress of the race was reviewed and possibilities for further and more rapid economic advancement were pointed out in the reports and addresses at the "Silver Jubilee" of the National Negro Business League, which closed its twenty-fifth annual meeting here at the Wendell Phillips high school, with the reelection of Dr. Robert R. Moton as president, A. L. Holsey as secretary and C. C. Spaulding as chairman of the executive committee and with the election of B. M. Liddy as vice-president at large and field director and W. M. Rich of Norfolk as treasurer. The "Silver Jubilee" represents the turning point in the life and work of the league. The program which was launched by Dr. Moton in his annual address, the feature of the Wednesday evening session, embedded a complete reorganization. The new plan consists of the division into 14 districts which will be under the vice-presidents of the league and supervised directly by B. M. Roddy, vice-president at large. This assures the members of a more effective yearly program while the National Negro Finance Corporation will function to aid and promote business enterprises with intention of bringing about an unparalleled era of prosperity. One of the outstanding accomplishments of the league was the establishment of several scholarships in business colleges for deserving young men and women of the race. The announcement of this decision which was made by Perry W. Howard, legal advisor of the league and special assistant to the U. S. attorney general, was received with a great demonstration. The meeting was, according to delegates who have followed the fortunes of the league since its founding by the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, the greatest meeting as to attendance and results in the history of the league. The spacious auditorium was filled to its capacity at each session and at the night sessions thousands were turned away while hundreds of others congregated in the corridors. Upon the recommendation of the committee on resolutions, a committee will be appointed by the executive committee on building and loan education to work with the colleges and local leagues, in training our people in the building and loan idea. The committee will have the support and co-operation of the American Saving Building Loan Association of Madison, Wisconsin. LAKEVIEW PARK AS PLEASURE RESORT Within the last month a committee of well-known citizens entered into an agreement with the management of Lakeview Park, a beautiful and well-appointed pleasure resort in East Omaha, which was about to be closed, to take it over for the use of respectable colored patrons, where there would be no restrictions in the enjoyment of all the privileges of the place. Lakeview has been opened three nights a week—Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays—during this time and has enjoyed a liberal patronage. A good ten-piece orchestra, under the management of Thomas Roulette, has furnished music for dancing in the spacious and beautiful dance pavilion. The roller skating rink has also been popular, as have other features. Monday, Labor Day, there is to be a special program and a large patronage is anticipated. Messrs. Nate Hunter, John Woods, Edward Webster, Fred Thompson and several others constitute the committee who have made this venture of faith. Mrs. Vernie Jackson, 969 North Twenty-seventh street, returned Monday from Topeka, Kans., where she attended the Grand Lodge of the Heroines of Jericho. Mrs. Jackson is one of the grand officers of the lodge. She reports an excellent time. ```markdown ``` THE M A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER DEVOTED OF COLOREN PUBLISHED EVERY FRIDAY A MONITOR PUBLISH Entered as Second-Class Mall Matta Omaha, Nebraska, under THE REV.

THOUSANDS of our youth, boys and girls, young men and maidens, will soon be starting to school. We hope that every one who enters school or college will be filled with the determination to do his level best and to take full advantage of the opportunities offered for securing a liberal education. We hope all who can will secure a college education in order that he may be the better equipped for life. Of course there are many who will not be able to do this; but every boy and girl should be ambitious to go as far as he can and wherever there is a will there is a way. But whether one is or is not able to go through high school and college he should make up his mind to be thorough in his work. Education is foundation laying and if there is any weakness or defect in the foundation the superstructure or building erected thereon is correspondingly defective or weak. So, let every course be well and strongly laid. In Omaha and throughout Nebraska all pupils, irrespective of creed, race or nationality enjoy equal opportunities of getting an education. Excellent schools, with conscientious, well-trained teachers, free text books and other facilities make the securing of an education not only an easy but a delightful task. Our own people have eagerly availed themselves of these privileges. Our boys and girls have, as a rule, made excellent scholastic records, fully demonstrating that mental ability is not a monopoly enjoyed by any specially favored group or class. We urge the youth of our race to take full advantage of their school opportunities and to do their utmost to excel in scholarship, athletics and school activities. We urge parents to co-operate with the school authorities, to visit the schools, know their children's teachers to the end that the best results may be obtained A PRAYER FOR DELIVERY PRETEND By Morne (For the Associa 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 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.

INDICATES RIGHT SPIRIT THE Alliance Times-Herald, of which Ben. J. Sallows is publisher, and recognized as one of the most progressive of Nebraska's many progressive newspapers, contained in its issue of August 22 an excellent editorial extending cordial welcome to the colored Masonic Grand Lodge which met in that hospitable town. It is very seldom that local newspapers esteem gatherings of this character among our group of sufficient importance to evoke editorial comment. This makes the courtesy of the Times-Herald the more noteworthy. As indicative of the right spirit and a growing appreciation upon the white citizenry of our country of the worthwhileness and significance of the efforts our people are making for advancement along fraternal and other lines it gives us great pleasure to quote in full this excellent editorial, which is captioned, "Welcome To Alliance" and reads: "Alliance is host this week to an important gathering, although the band has not been ordered out to welcome the delegates and there are no special editions of the newspapers to herald the event. One hundred colored men, representing eleven Masonic lodges are holding their sixth annual state convention here. This Masonic gathering greatly resembles those staged by their white brothers in earnestness and sincerity of purpose. "There are hundreds of Masonic lodges in Nebraska for the whites, but only a handful for the colored men. But nothing could illustrate better than this handful the meaning of 'the little elven which leaventh the whole lump.' For black and white Masonry is one of the finest of influences in reorganizing and directing the lives of those to whom its light is given. There are no finer colored men in Nebraska than those to whom Alliance is host this week.

"Few, indeed, are the advantages available to those whose skin is black. In birth, in childhood, youth and manhood they are handicapped, by reason of the blood which flows in their veins. Despite the guarantee of the constitution, there is not equality between the races and there never will be full equality. Throughout the years, however, the best minds among them have fought their way steadily from darkness to increasing light. Some of the great gap has been bridged. There is a vast amount of ignorance and prejudice to be overcome, and such organizations as that now meeting in Alliance will do much toward overcoming the handicap under which they labor.

THE MONITOR THE RIALTO MUSIC SHOP DOUBLES ITS STORE The Rialto Music Shop which has been located for a number of years at 1406 Douglas street where it has deservedly had a large patronage among our people, has leased and remodelled the adjoining store at 1408 and doubled its capacity. This indicates the rapidity with which this firm is growing. It owes its growth and popularity among its patrons to the fact that it shows them that their trade is solicited and appreciated. Courteous attention is given to all patrons by the genial proprietor, Joe Himmelstein and his pleasant assistants, R. L. Lincoln, Edward Ruback and all employees. This store specializes in records by colored artists. It carries a large stock of phonographs and musical instruments and also sheet music.

Chicago—Pilots winging their way back and forth across the United States in the air mail service had covered 5,864,810 miles up to May 31, a distance done in 58,262 hours, according to Luther K. Bell, traffic manager of air mail service here. It is a general average of nearly 92 miles an hour. The names of 41 flyers who have given more than 100 hours' service to air mail are contained in a report from Bell, with the veteran E. Hamilton Lee, Hazelhurst headquarters, leading in number of hours. His total May 31 was 2,287 hours and 36 minutes for a distance of 201,205 miles. He was appointed to the air mail in December, 1918, and at present has the "run" between Long Island and Cleveland. To Pilot William C. Hopson, Omaha headquarters, went the honor, however, of having flown his plane the greatest distance. In 2,236 hours and 7 minutes service he covered 221,765 miles. He new follows the air path between Chicago and Omaha. Hopson is a Hill City, Kan., product, who entered the air mail service in April, 1920, after a long record in civilian and army flying. Only a few hours separated Lee and James H. Knight for first place. The pilot who has made enviable records in night flying and staged his memorable race with death had given 2,311 hours and 58 minutes to the service when the compilation was made, in which time he had traveled 211,093 miles. Knight is another Kansas man, born in Lincoln, who first entered the air mail service in June, 1919. He resigned May 20, 1920, and was reappointed in October, 1920. His is the Omaha-Chevonne route. Others who have served more than 2,000 hours, named according to rank in hours, are James P. Murray, headquarters Cheyenne, Cheyenne-Omaha run; William C. Hopson, Frank B. Yager, headquarters Cheyenne, Cheyenne-Omaha run; Warren D. Williams, headquarters Cleveland, Chicago-Cleveland run; Edison E. Mouton, headquarters Reno, Reno-Elko run; Wesley L. Smith, headquarters Hazelhurst, Hazelhurst-Cleveland run; L H. Garrison, headquarters Omaha, Chicago-Omaha run, and Harry G. Smith, headquarters Omaha, Cheyenne-Omaha run. FIND MALNUTRITION MENACES THE NATION Many Seemingly Well Children Are Sufferers From Poor Food. New York.—The malnutrition of children in the United States constitutes a serious health problem, according to the New York Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor, which for the last four and a half years has been testing various methods of combating this evil. Some of the facts ascertained from the society's study are included in a statement given out here. It is set forth that among 2,181 apparently well children examined in the medical clinics of the society, 636, or 30 per cent, were diagnosed as malnourished. The society is seeking the most effective methods of correcting habits of eating or living which cause malnutrition, and has issued a monograph entitled "Food for the Family," containing suggestions for proper feeding as a means of insuring proper nutrition. This condition of malnutrition is not due to insufficient food, but to the constant use of improperly chosen food or the inability of the body to make use of the food eaten because of insufficient air, rest, sunshine or physical defects. If these children were in danger from fire or industrial accidents, the report of the society says, every safety device and preventive measure known would be urged to protect them. Although the effects of malnutrition are much slower, often much more indirect and much less dramatic than those from fire or accidents, they are even more deplorable because of the larger number affected and the lingering misery resulting. "Many a wage earner is unable to increase his income to the safety level because of health conditions due to poor nutrition. Too many children who apparently show no signs of disease or malnutrition are allowed to drift into the wage-earning period with only a part of their rightful earning capacity developed. Increases Living Costs "Malnutrition thus concerns more than the individual or the home in which it occurs. It affects the whole country by reducing the economic production of the individual and thereby increasing the cost of living. Since much of the sickness and lowered vitality in later life is the result of poor nutrition, as physicians have frequently stated, the importance of providing educational guidance in nutrition as well as providing attention for the correction of physical defects is very great." To ascertain what are the principal causes of malnutrition, the society analyzed the condition of 275 families among those which its nutrition bureau is now assisting. Of that number, 227 families required instruction in the preparation of the proper food; 198 needed assistance in the planning of meals; 46 families had to be helped in marketing, because simple foods entirely strange to them, were recommended; while special diets had to be planned for 88 families. Only 27 families needed financial assistance to provide adequate food. Greater economy was found to be necessary in 44 families, while in 60 families assistance took the form of helping them to adjust expenditures. Indifference, women working and no one at home to look after the children, living conditions too congested resulting in inadequate rest and impor- perent ventilation, and mother ill, were other problems found to be responsible for mignutrition. Twelve Rules for Health. 4. Guide to proper nutrition which the A. I. C. P. will use in its efforts to reduce malnutrition among the tenement districts of this city includes, in addition to suggested diets and menus, a "dozen good health rules for children," which read as follows: Emphatically DO— 1. Use milk—fresh, clean, whole milk for children. Every growing child should have a quart a day in some form. 2. Eat plenty of vegetables. 3. Be sure that a school child has a good luncheon, not candy, pickles and ice cream cones. 4. East coarse food, such as oatmeal, bran muffins and vegetables, so that the bowels will not be constipated. 5. Eat slowly and chew food well. 6. Have the meals at the same hours each day. 7. Eat only bread, or crackers and milk, or bread and butter between meals, and only in the middle of the morning or the afternoon. 8. Wash hands and face before eating. 9. Drink plenty of water between meals. 10. Be in bed by 9 o'clock or before. 11. Have windows opened in the sleeping room at night. 12. Brush the teeth at least once a day. Important DONT'S— Do not let the children eat pork or veal, much meat of any kind, fried foods, rich pie and cakes, strong spice and vinegar, green or spilled fruit. Do not let children drink tea, coffee, beer, wine, sodas. Do not let them eat between meals, except the things named in No. 7 above. Do not let them eat candy, ice cream cones, nuts, cakes and cookies between meals. NIAGARA'S EDGE MAY NEED PATCHING UP Horseshoe Falls in Danger of Becoming Merely a Spillway Spillway. Washington—When the fall of a huge piece of rock threatened to turn the honeymooners' Horseshoe falls of Niagara into a mere spillway, the peril to theils' beauty brought forth proposals to hire engineers to patch up North America's outstanding natural wonder. By dropping a keystone out of its Horseshoe arch, Niagara was merely performing its duty to the ages. For 30,000 years the falls has been the geological hour glass for much of North America. By reading the record of the rocks that go through the neck of the gorge, as grains of sand slip through the hour glass, scientists stopwatch the glacier sheets, which were the first plows to furrow the fertile Mid-West. In the sermons of the cataract's stones lie the chronology of Lake Alginquon, the predecessor of Lakes Superior, Michigan and Huron, and of Lake Iroquois, the sprawling progenitor of Lake Ontario. Their dates are fixed almost as accurately as history books report William the Conqueror's arrival in England in 1066. "Across the Neck." The story that is told by Niagara, which is 95.17 per cent Canadian, is related in the following bulletin by the National Geographic society: Niagara is the North American champion in one of the greatest battles nature ever umpired. Literally scores of challengers sought her crown. More than once Niagara fell almost lifeless on her waterworn rocks. But finally the seekers for her crown gave up; the last not many more centuries ago than the days of Tut-Ank-Hamen. Niagara is said to take its name from the Indian tree nee-ag-arah, which appropriately means "across the neck." The Niagara river cuts across the neck of land separating Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. Just east of Buffalo the river collects the entire natural discharge of the four upper Great Lakes, rushes it through a narrowing river for 16 miles, pushes it over a sheer drop of 212 feet, churns it seven miles through a canyon, and then carries it gently by seven miles of lowland to Lake Ontario. Our Niagara was born when the glaciers melted back, exposing the ridge the water now tumbles down. Like the glaciers of the Rockies, these enormous sheets of ice moving down from Labrador poured out streams of water. These streams collected ages ago at the foot of the huge ice lobes in depressions extending into Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. Accumulated water sometimes rose hundreds of feet higher than the present level of the Great Lakes and poured out into the Mississippi over the present site of Chicago and through outlets in Ohio and Indiana. Finally, as the ice melted northward, prehistoric Lake Tonawanda formed on the edge of the plateau over which Niagara pours. There were then five outlets from this lake—at Holley, Medina, Gasport, Lockport and Lewiston. The spillway at Lewiston—Niagara—won out. Lockport gorge now contains a flight of steps for the New York barge canal. Early Niagara Numerous. Early Niagara Numbers. About the time Niagara was beginning to triumph, the glacier glacier moved back to Lake Slimcoe, Ontario. The fickle waters of the upper lakes lost little time in finding the Trent valley, a ragged serles of lakes and rivers leading into Lake Ontario. Trent valley gorges tell of many early Niagara. At that time only 15 per cent of the present flow went over Niagara, forming the narrow lower gorge. Nature came to the rescue, tipping a great block of land, ever so slightly, but enough to shut off the Trent faucet and make even more water go over Niagara than the spectator sees today. But the Chicago outlet, predecessor of the drainage canal, again cut down the flow. The Whirpool was made at this time. Once again Niagara was flouted when the outlet shifted to North bay.

Ontario, sending the waters down the Ottawa over the portage which Champlain was to take to discover Lake Huron. The upper narrow gorge was then carved, but again the huge rock saucer, which has the Great Lakes paddles in the bottom, tipped, leaving Niagara trumpphant. Niagara started to spill over the bank at Lewiston about 30,000 years ago. In 300 centuries it has shoveled its rate seven miles. At its present rate of excavation, more than four feet annually, Niagara will dig back the remaining 16 miles to Lake Erie about the year A. D. 21924. Before this time, however, man may take a hand, since the peril to the famous Horseshoe falls, by the recent erosion, has brought forth the suggestion of reinforcing the lip of the falls. Ancient Treasure Sought Mill City, Ore.—The excavation of a large pile of rocks, which workers are sure is an ancient tomb with buried treasure and possibly contains the remains of some noted chief, is attracting much interest on the little north fork of the Santiam river, about ten miles east of Melhaa. A large tunnel has been driven into the rocks, and the workers expect developments any day, having been rewarded with various signs of ancient life. No admittance is allowed to the cave at present, for considerable dynamite is used in trying to reach the supposed burying spot. Fishermen Are Puzzled West Plains, Mo.—Fishermen of West Plains have been puzzled at the different varieties of fish that have been found in various ponds in this vicinity. In one pond a fisherman recently caught several large goldfish, when no one had any idea that there were any fish in the pond. In another pond catfish and bass were found, while still another pond in the same vicinity was filled with crapple. The state game and fish department has explained the unusual condition by asserting that wild ducks and geese frequently drop onto streams where the fish have laid their spawn, and in arising the fish eggs cling to their legs and feet. These are dropped in the next pond onto which they alight. Winged Death Rocket Sprays Red-Hot Metal London.—A winged incendiary rocket, which the inventor, Ernest Welch, declares will spread a rain of molten metal over wide areas with devastating results has been given preliminary tests with satisfactory results, according to persons who were present. Full government tests are to be made shortly. The British, French and American governments have displayed interest in the invention, it is declared, and a definite offer is reported to have been received from America. Mr. Welch asserts that the explosion of the rocket will destroy everything in its range, penetrating even steel and asbestos. ```markdown ``` Climax, Mich.—A record believed to be unequaled in the state has been made by Forest Roe, eighteen, who has just been graduated from the Climax high school without having been absent or tardy one day in 12 years.

MOREARTY Attorney at Law 700 Peters Trust Building To James Mayo, Non-Resident Dendant Saratoga Springs, N. Y.—The admiration of several hundred persons, including many women, who insisted on kissing the French race horses, has caused Trainer Leigh to bar visitors from the stable of Epinard.
