Phoenix Tribune key to Happiness ARIZONA'S LEADING NEWSPAPER In 10,000 Homes A STRONG CHARACTER Race prejudice is bound to give way before the influence of character, education and wealth. These are necessary to the growth of our wealth there without wealth there no leisure, without leisure there can be no thought, and without thought there can be no progress.—Booker T. Washington. This government is based upon the fundamental idea that each man, no matter what his occupation, his race, or his religious belief, is entitled to be treated on his worth as a man, and neither favored nor discriminated against because of any accident in his position.-Theodore Roosevelt. VOL. VI.—NO 7 GEORGIANS ATTEMPT TO PROVE SOUTH IS BEST FOR NEGROES (Preston News Service) Atlanta, Ga.—In an effort to solve industrial problems and get a better understanding of why Negroes continue to leave the South the Georgia Manufacturers association sent a commission to all important industrial centers throughout the North to make a survey of the conditions among southern Negroes who have gone North. That southern Negroes who have migrated to such cities as Cincinnati, Cleveland Detroit, Philadelphia, Chicago and Pittsburgh, are facing a rising tide of race prejudice and above all things are being gouged to the limit by avaricious landlords in Negro districts is charged in a statement issued by the commission following the investigation. "In Cincinnati many of the Negroes are being charged as 'high as $10 a week for one room, and three and four families are living in one house, built for one because of the extreme congestion in the Negro quarters." This statement was given the investigators by Benjamin W. Overton, executive secretary of the Colored Y. M. C. A. in Cincinnati, and is said to be an authority on Negro conditions in that city. In Cleveland and other northern cities with a large foreign population, the southern Negroes are clashing with the foreigners who resent both the intrusion of the Negro into his quarters as the result of migration, and the Negro's competition with them in the field of labor. This statement was given by Dr. John J. McLeish, director of the American House in Cincinnati, and said to be an authority on conditions among the foreign born in the North. In Cincinnati the Negro quarters are largely located on the Ohio river front in what is known as "The Bottoms" and which is partially or entirely flooded each year. During the floods the Negroes have to seek safety in other parts of the city, and many have been drowned in these annual floods. Because of the fearful congestion in these quarters the southern Negro has fallen prey to consumption and other diseases caused by cold and over-crowding. What was found in Cincinnati is practically the same in all other northern industrial centers. After reading the report issued by the Georgia Commission W. P. Bayless comments as follows: "Granting that southern Negroes suffer all the inconveniences pointed out by the southern commission representing manufacturing interests in the South, the puzzling thing to me is why southern Negroes continue to come North in such increasing numbers and put up with such 'unbearable' conditions as described. I know of Negroes who have gone back south and brought up their friends with them. And I have been told by scores of them that while they found conditions extremely hard to bear in the North, they found it much easier than what they had to suffer in the South. I am confident that southern whites know why the Negroes are leaving and they also know what to do to keep the Negroes South, but they cannot bring themselves to the point where they can treat Negroes justly and fairly. When they actually have a change of heart in their attitude toward the Negro I believe those who are there will remain and many will return." Mrs. Franklin Is Hostess On Sunday, July 1st, Mrs. Chas Franklin of 219 East Jefferson street, had as her dinner guests, Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Jordan of Fort Worth, Tex., and Mrs. C. C.

ANOTHER REASON WHY BLACKS ARE LEAVING THAT DEAR OLD DIXIE (Preston News Service) Adel, Ga.—The best price that Negro melon growers of Georgia have been able to obtain is said to be $25.00 per car load, while white melon growers are able to get as high as $762.50 per car load for their melons. It is said that the white men have formed a melon growers' association to which Negroes cannot belong. Negro planters are forced to sell their melons to individual members of the association or to commission merchants who offer them practically nothing for their crop; Several weeks ago a group of Negro planters attempted to make connections with commission merchants in Pittsburgh, Pa., offering to sell them the melons at $25.00 a car f. o. b. anywhere in Georgia. If this connection can be made it is possible that better prices will be obtained. It is said that Pittsburgh merchants were afraid of the melons because of the low price at which they were offered.

GOVERNMENT (Preston News Service) (T preston News Service) Tuskegee, Ala.—The parade of 700 klansmen last Tuesday In Tuskegee as a protest against the appointment of Negroes to positions in the government hospital there for Negroes is an open difiance of the United States government. It is said that white citizens in Alabama have been protesting against the appointment of Negroes to positions of responsibility at the hospital, from the governor on down to the lowest white scullion. It is said the other day a young Negro, named John J. Calhoun, a stenographer, Norfolk, Va., reported last Tuesday morning to be stenographer in the office of the hospital, supplanting Miss Hunnicutt, a white girl stenographer. When she went out and told the whites of the city what had been done. Immediately the klan planned the parade that night to frighten the young man away. It is said by southern whites that Calhoun beat a hasty retreat, leaving his trunk clothes and even suitcase. According to the best information available it is said that the whites here feel that the presence of the most prominent and skilled Negroes at work in the hospital will give the young Negro students of Tuskegee Institute a mistaken idea and all of them will want to be doctors and professional men, instead of farmers and tradesmen. The girls will want to be trained nurses, instead of domestics. This will have a very bad influence on the southern Negro, and it is to obviate the possibility of such "evil" influences on the young Negroes of the South that they object so strenuously to the manning of the hospital with a Negro personnel.

NEGRO SANHEDRIN IS LATEST PLAN OF PROMINENT BLACKS NEGRO SANHEDRIN IS LATEST PLAN OF PROMINENT BLACKS (Preston News Service) Columbus, O.—Dean Kelley Miller, of Howard University, Washington. D. C., spoke here last Thursday night at the St. Paul A. M. E. Church on the Negro Sanhedrin, or All Race Conference under the auspices of the Columbus Urban League of, which Nimrob B. Allen is the executive secretary. Mr. Allen said, "this meeting was held in an endeavor to arouse interest among the people of Columbus in a national conference on the race problem. The proposed conference has for its purpose the outlining of methods of approach from the Negro angle of the problem. Dr. Miller gave us a splendid address on the plans of the proposed conference as well as polignantly cited many reasons why such a conference should be held. The race to-day has too many individual so-called leaders, leading in all sorts of directions, doing the race as a whole great harm. A unification of plans and a definite drive for racial betterment, as indicated by Dr. Miller is bound to bring splendid results for racial solidarity and advancement." $30,000 HOME IS GIFT OF WHITES TO COLORED CHILDREN $30,000 HOME IS GIFT OF WHITES TO COLORED CHILDREN Kansas City, Mo.—An orphan home to house 75 children and with an initial cost of $30,000 is the gift of Mr. and Mrs. F.

UNDERLYING CAUSE OF NEGRO MIGRATION (Preston News Service) Lansing, Mich. — Young Negroes from all parts of the south are flocking to Michigan industries by the hundreds, according to a report made to the state Administrative Board last Thursday.

ELEAINE RIOTERS MAY BE RE-ARRESTED SAY LATE REPORTS (Preston News Service) Helena, Ark.—The sudden and unexpected release of the Negroes held in the penitentiary charged with murder in connection with the Eleaine rioting in 1919 has caused the whiteness of this section to evidence grave displeasure over the action of the officials in turning loose these Negroes. Just what will happen next no one will venture to give expression to an opinion publicly. The men have been sent to Little Rock for safety and the state officials are prepared to take care of any eventuality in the form of an uprising among the disgruntled whites of Phillips county. It is said that members of certain organizations are planning to secretly arrange to take some action to spread terror into the hearts of the Negroes of Phillips county as it is feared that the action of the courts in turning these men loose will embolden the Negroes of that section to such a point that white people will not feel safe.

It is stated that no further Negro personnel will be assigned to the hospital until Director Hines makes a personal investigation of the condition at the hospital. It is said that Director Hines has sent word that he would make an investigation sometime during July. Feeling that has been apparently running high for the past few weeks has subsided somewhat following the announcement that the director would visit the institution. It is declared in many quarters that the whole squabble has arisen because the southern whites wish to have the institution manned by white physicians and white nurses. The Negroes of the whole United States have set up a howl that this institution should be manned by Negroes and the President apparently lent an ear to their claim. Many keen observers throughout the country have taken particular note of the attitude Dr. Moton has taken in the situation and are watching carefully what President Harding will finally instruct Director Hines to do in the matter. It is felt in many quarters that President Harding may waver and yield to the wishes of the southern whites, while friends of the President are inclined to think that he will stand firm. Honor Tucson Guest Miss Margurite Watson of Tucson was honor guest at a party given at the home of Miss Jeanette Day, 1040 East Madison street, Thursday June 28. Miss Jessie Rowland of 1418 E.

It seems that Dempsey is the only man connected with the fight who made a profit out of it. Our banker in Phoenix tells us that it is a bad business proposition when only one party to the contract receives a benefit. Perhaps those Montana financiers know more about the banking business than they do about prize fights. Some one has said: "Let the shoemaker stick to his last." We believe the same principle is applicable to bankers, et al.

The Ku Klux Klan is opposed to the plan of the administration to man the government hospital for colored veterans of the world war at Tuskegee with colored employees. This is a test case and will show which is the stronger, the Klan or the Government. The government says the hospital must be manned entirely by colored physicians, nurses, etc.; and the Klan says that white doctors must head the institution. All eyes are on Tuskegee as this is the deciding battle between the government and the Ku Klux Klan. According to press reports, some members of the American Legion in Arizona expressed a wish that Tommy Gibbons had been able to "knock Jack Dempsey's block off." If they and the general public want to see that trick done to a turn, just wait until he steps into the ring with the invincible Harry Wills. Jack Dempsey not only will have his block knocked off, but will be placed in the discard forever. Oklahomaans are interested in Arizona, according to a statement made by the Hon.

Phoenix wants a main line rail road, has wanted one for the past twenty years, and on Wednesday July 18, the proposition of accepting or rejecting this opportunity will be given us. What will we do with it? The Tribune wishes to go on record as favoring the proposition from A to Z. THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE—ALWAYS IMPROVING Week Day Sermonette BY H. T. S. JOHNSON, Interracial Secretary for Oklahoma OVERCOME EVIL WITH GOOD Matt. 5:44—"But I command you all, love your enemies and pray for your persecutors; that so you may become true sons of your Father in heaven; for he causes His sun to rise on the wicked as well as the good and sends rain upon those who do right and those who do wrong." Anyone who reads with care the text quoted above is bound to conclude that it is in place both as to spirit and time. It is timely because: (1). It was given by Jesus Christ, our Saviour. By oral confession, unselfish living and vicarious suffering, Jesus proved that His mission on earth was to help and save mankind. That being true it is only necessary to know that Jesus said do something for us to act accordingly. He who gave up the glory that was His, took upon Himself the form of sinful flesh, and suffered the hardships of the poorest of the poor, for no purpose other than to save a lost world, is incapable of giving advice that would not prove a blessing. Therefore, it is safe to conclude that the advice of the text is timely, because Jesus gave it. (2) It has universal application. Every race group can point to enemies and at some time in its history has felt the heel of oppression. The command to love one's enemies and to pray for one's persecutors can therefore be applied to every individual and to all peoples. Especially can the Negro in America say that Jesus put that in His great Sermon on the Mount for him. Who is more conscious of enemies and has felt dire persecutions more keenly than the Negro who lives under the Stars and Stripes? Surely Jesus meant him when he said, "Love your enemies and pray for your persecutors." (3). It is a challenge to all that is highest and best in man. There was a time in my life when I regarded the command to love enemies and pray for persecutors as base cowardice. I almost hated Jesus for having commanded it. But now I see in that command a challenge to all that is best in man. Since the devil is constantly appealing to that which is low and mean, Jesus would have been recreant to His trust had He not appealed to the high and good in man. The devil's business is to make men like himself, wholly bad. Jesus' mission is to make men like Himself, wholly good, or "complete in goodness." This end cannot be obtained except through exercise of highest virtues. Hence Jesus exhorses: "Love your enemies and pray for your persecutors." That is a call upward from the usual to the unusual; from the ordinary to the extraordinary; from following after the devil to walking in the footsteps of the Man of Galilee. Following the devil leads to eternal woe. Walking after Jesus leads to everlasting peace and never ending joys. Which will you do, men and women of my race? There is no disputing the fact that, the Negro has cause for feelings of enmity against the American white man. But can he afford to let that cause produce the usual effect? Jesus says, "No." Common sense says the same. The person who hates incites the one hated to acts of vengeance which may affect the welfare of thousands through generations yet unborn. But it has a reaction upon the one who hates which is many times worse. It sears his conscience and makes impossible growth of soul. It dwarfs and petrifies the soul. Individual confillets, group uprisings and wars have their ground in hate thoughts. If men would quit hating one another, murders would cease and wars would be no more. That is why Jesus said, "Love your enemies and pray for your persecutors." The Negro's safety in this country depends upon his practicing the counsel of this text. If he encourages thoughts that make for hatred of the white man, a conflict of arms, individually or in group, will be the inevitable result. That will enable some individual or group to kill a few white people and win plaudits from the less serious for having played the hero, but the race suffers. The Negro is too much handicapped to help the race by fighting. The better way is to love and pray. If you cannot love the white man, it is because you have not prayed for him. It is impossible to pray for a people and hate them. "Pray for your persecutors" and feeling of hatred will banish in proportion as you pray. Yea, emotions of love will manifest themselves in proportion as you mean your prayers. Since we cannot whip the white man into better treatment of us let us love him into it. Especially is this advisable since we grow stronger and better by the exercise. (4) It exhorts to that which proves Divine sonship. "So you may become true sons of your Father in Heaven, for He causes His sun to rise on the wicked as well as the good and sends rain upon those who do right and those who do wrong." It is more important that our lives prove sonship to God than our ability to get even with the white man. We are not God's sons until we reflect Him in our lives. He gives the sunshine and rain in the same degree to the wicked who delight in His displeasure as He does to the good who are striving to do His will. So we, to prove our relation as "true sons of our Father in Heaven," must love everybody, even the enemy. Love will bridge the chasm of race prejudice and usher in an era of peace and good will. The Cross-Cut these things, and then I say we'll run! Because this is going to be some explosion!" Fairchild smiled the smile of a man whose heart is thumping at its maximum speed. Before him in the long line of the foot wall were ten holes, "upholes," "downs" and "swimmers," attacking the hidden ore in every direction. Ten holes drilled six feet into the rock and tamped with double charges of dynamite. He straightened. "All right, men! Ready?" The carbide lamps were held close to the fuses for a second. Soon they were all going, spitting like so many venomous, angry serpents—but neither Fairchild nor the miners had stopped to watch. They were running as hard as possible for the shaft and for the protection that distance might give. A wait that seemed ages. Then: "One!" "And two—and three!" "There goes four and five—they went together!" "Six—seven—eight—nine—" Again a wait, while they looked at one another with vacuous eyes. A long interval until the tenth. "Two went together then! I thought we'd counted nine?" The foreman stared, and Fairchild studied. Then his face lighted. "Eleven's right. One of them must have set off the charge that Harry left in there. All the better—it gives us just that much more of a chance." Back they went along the drift tunnel now, coughing slightly as the sharp smoke of the dynamite cut their lungs—a long journey that seemed as many miles instead of feet. Then with a shout Fairchild sprang forward, and went to his hands and knees. It was there before him—all about him—the black, heavy masses of lead-silver ore, a great, heaping, five-ton pile of it where it had been thrown out by the tremendous force of the explosion. It seemed that the whole great floor of the cavern was covered with it, and the workmen shouted with Fairchild as they seized bits of the precious black stuff and held it to the light for closer examination. "Look!" The voice of one of them was high and excited. "You can see the fine streaks of silver sticking out! It's high-grade and plenty of it!" But Fairchild paid little attention. He was playing in the stuff, throwing it in the air and letting it fall to the floor of the cavern again, like a boy with a new sack of marbles, or a child with its building blocks. Five tons and the night was not yet over! Five tons, and the vein had not yet shown its other side! Back to work they went now. Again through the hours the drills bit into the rock walls, while the ore car clattered along the tram line and while the creaking of the block and tackle at the shaft seemed endless. In three days, approximately forty tons of ore must come out of that mine—and work must not cease. Morning, and in spite of the sleepladen eyes, the heavy aching in his head, the tired drooping of the shoulders, Fairchild tramped to the boarding house to notify Mother Howard and ask for news of Harry. There had been none. Then he went on, to wait by the door of the Sampler until Bittson, the owner, should appear, and drag him away up the hill, even before he could up for the morning. "There it is!" he exclaimed, as he led him to the entrance of the chamber. "There it is; take all you want of it and assay it!" Bittson went forward into the crosscut, where the men were drilling even at new holes, and examined the vein. Already it was three feet thick, and there was still ore ahead. One of the miners loked up. "Just finishing up on the cross-cut," he announced, as he nodded toward his drill. "I've just bitten into the foot wall on the other side. Looks to me like the vein's about five feet thick—as near as I can measure it." "And—" Bittson picked up a few samples, examined them by the light of the carbides and tossed them away—"you can see the silver sticking out. I caught sight of a couple of pencil threads of it in one or two of those samples. All right, Boy!" he turned to Fairchild. "What was that bargain we made?" "It was based on two hundred dollars-a-ton ore. This may run above—or below. But whatever it is, I'll sell all you can handle for the next three days at fifty dollars a ton under the assay price." "You've said the word. The trucks will be here in an hour if we have to shovel a path all the way up Kentucky gulch." He hurried away then, while Fairchild and the men followed him into town and to their breakfast. Then, recruiting a new gang on the promise of payment at the end of their three-day shift, Fairchild went back to the mine. But the word had spread, and others were there before him. Already fifteen, or twenty miners were assembled about the opening of the Blue Poppy tunnel, awaiting permission to enter, the usual rush upon a lucky mine to view its riches. Behind him, Fairchild could see others coming from Ohadi to take a look at the new strike, and his heart bounded with happiness tinged with sorrow. Harry was not there to enjoy it all; Harry was gone, and in spite of his every effort, Fairchild had failed to find him. Some one brushed against him, and there came a slight tug at his coat. Fairchild looked downward to see passing the form of Anita Richmond. A moment later she looked toward him, but in her eyes there was no light of recognition, nothing to indicate that one had just given him a signal of greeting and congratulation. And yet Fairchild felt that she had. Then, absently, he put his hand into his pocket. Something there caused his heart to halt momentarily—a piece of paper. He crumpled it in his hand, he rubbed his fingers over it wonderingly; it had not been in his pocket before she had passed him. Hurriedly he walked to the far side of the chamber and there, pretending to examine a bit of ore, brought the missive from its place of secretion, to unfold it with trembling fingers, then to stare at the words which showed before him: "Squint Rodaine is terribly worried about something. Has been on an awful rampage all morning. Something VAN MEE A Piece of Paper. critical is brewing, but I don't know what. Suggest you keep watch on him. Please destroy this." That was all. There was no signature. But Robert Fairchild had seen the writing of Anita Richmond once before! So she was his friend! So all these days of waiting had not been in vain; all the cutting hopelessness of seeing her, only to have her turn away her head and fail to recognize him, had been for their purpose after all. And yet Fairchild remembered that she was engaged to Maurice Rodaine, and that the time of the wedding must be fast approaching. Perhaps there had been a quarrel, perhaps—Then he smiled. There was no perhaps about it! Anita Richmond was his friend; she had been forced into the promise of marriage to Maurice Rodaine, but she had not been forced into a relinquishment of her desire to reward him somehow, some way, for the attention that he had shown her and the liking that she knew existed in his heart. Hastily Fairchild folded the paper and stuffed it into an inside pocket. Then, seeking out one of the workmen, he appointed him foreman of the gang, to take charge in his absence. Following which, he made his way out of the mine and into town, there to hire men of Mother Howard's suggestion and send them to the Blue Poppy, to take their stations every few feet along the tunnel, to appear mere spectators, but in reality to be guards who were constantly on the watch for anything untoward that might occur. Fairchild was taking no chances now. An hour more found him at the Sampler, watching the ore as it ran through the great crusher hoppers, to come forth finely crumbled powder and be sampled, ton by ton, for the assays by old Undertaker Chastine and three other men of his type, without which no sampler pays for ore. Bittson approached, grinning. "You guessed just about right," he announced. "That stuff's running around two hundred dollars a ton. Need any money now?" "All you can let me have!" "Four or five hundred? We've gotten in eight tons of that stuff already; don't guess I'd be taking any risk on that!" he chuckled. Fairchild reached for the currency eagerly. All but a hundred dollars of it would go to Mother Howard—for that debt must be paid off first. And, that accomplished, denying himself the invitation of rest that his bed held forth for him, he started out into town, apparently to loiter about the streets and receive the congratulations of the townspeepe, but in reality to watch for one person and one alone—Squint Rodaine! He saw him late in the afternoon shambling along, his eyes glaring, his lips moving wordlessly, and he took up the trail. But it led only to the office of the Silver Queen Development company, where the scar-faced man doubled at his desk and, stuffing a cigar into his mouth, chewed on it angrily. Instinctively Fairchild knew that the greatest part of his mean temper was due to the strike in the Blue Poppy; instinctively also he felt that Squint Rodalne had known of the value all along, that now he was cursing himself for the failure of his schemes to obtain possession of what had appeared until only a day before to be nothing more than a disappointing, unlucky, ill-omened hole in the ground. Fairchild resumed his loitering, but evening found him near the Silver Queen office. Anita's note had told him little, yet he had implied much. Something war fermenting in the seething brain of Squint Rodaine, and if the past counted for anything, it was something that concerned him. An hour more, then Fairchild suddenly slunk into the shadows of a doorway. Squint had snapped out the (Continued on page 3) SATURDAY.

LOVETT 522 East Washington Street PHONE 6581 --- THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE-ALWAYS IMPROVING THE CROSS-CUT (Continued from page 2) light and was locking the door. Fift's feet, then Fairchild stepped from the doorway and took up the trail. It was not a hard one to follow. Squint Rodaine passed the street leading to his house without even looking up. Two blocks more, and they reached the city limits. A mile, and they were in the open country, crossing and recrossing the ice-dotted Clear creek. A furling more, then Squint Rodaine turned up the lane which led to a great, shambling, old, white building that, in the rosy days of the mining game, had been a roadhouse, but which now, barely furnished in only a few of its rooms, inhabited by mountain rats and fluttering bats and general decay for the most part, formed the uncomfortable abode of Crazy Laura! And Fairchild followed. It could mean only one thing when Rodaine sought the white-haired, mumbling old hag whom once he had called his wife. It could mean but one outcome, and that of disaster for some one. Mother Howard had said that Crazy Laura would kill for Squint. And now that Squint Rodaine was seeking her, Fairchild meant to follow, and to hear if such a thing were within the range of human possibility—the evil drippings of his crooked lips. He crossed to the side of the road where ran the inevitable gully and taking advantage of the shelter, hurried forward, smiling grimly in the darkness at the memory of the fact that things were now reversed; that he was following Squint Rodaine as Rodaine once had followed him. Swiftly he moved, closer—closer; the scarfed man went through the tumbledown gate and approached the house, not knowing that his pursuer was less than fifty yards away! A minute of cautious waiting then, in which Fairchild did not move. Finally a light showed in an upstairs room of the house, and Fairchild, masking his own footprints in those made by Rodaine, crept to the porch. Swiftly, silently, protected by the pad of snow on the soles of his shoes, he made the doorway and softly tried the lock. It gave beneath his pressure, and he glided within the dark hallway, musty and dusty in its odor, forbidding, evil and dark. Now Fairchild could hear voices, and in a moment more they became louder, as a door opened. "It don't make any difference! I ain't going to stand for it! Why didn't you wait until they were both there?" "I—I thought they were, Roady!" The woman's voice was whining, pleading. "Ain't you going to kiss me?" "No, I ain't going to kiss you. You went and made a mess of things." "You kissed me the night our boy was born. Remember that, Roady? Don't you remember how you kissed me then?" "That was a long time ago, and you were a different woman then. You'd do what I'd tell you." "But I do now, Roady. Honest, I do. I'll do anything you tell me to—if you'll just be good to me. Why don't you hold me in your arms any more—?" A scuffling sound came from above. Fairchild knew that she had made an effort to clasp him to her, and that he had thrust her away. The voices came closer. "You know what you got us into, don't you? They made a strike there today—same value as in the Silver Queen. If it hadn't been for you—" "But they get out somewhere—they always get out." The voice was high and wred now. "They're immortal. That's what they are—they're immortal. They have the gift—they can get out—" "Bosh! Course they get out when you wait until after they're gone. Why one of 'em was downtown at the assayer's, so I understand, when you went in there." "But the other—he's immortal. He got out—" "You're crazy!" "Yes, crazy!" She suddenly shrieked at the word. "That's what they all call me—Orazy Laura. But I ain't—hear me—I ain't! I know—they're immortal, just like the others were immortal! I can't hold 'em when they've got the spirit that rises above—I've tried, ain't I—and I've only got one!" "One?" Squint's voice became suddenly excited. "One—what one?" "I'm not going to tell. But I know—I know!" There was silence then for a moment, and Fairchild, huddled in the darkness below, felt the creeping crawling cliff of horror pass over him as he listened. Above were a rogue and a lunatic, discussing between them what, at times, seemed to concern him and his partner; more, it seemed to go back to other days, when other men had worked the Blue Poppy and met milsfortunes. Squint Rodaine was talking again. "So you're not going to tell me about 'the one', eh? What have you got this door shut for?" "No door's shut." "It is—don't you think I can see? This door leading into the front room." The sound of heavy shoes, followed by a lighter tread. Then a scream above which could be heard the jangling of a rusty lock and the bumping of a shoulder against wood. High and strident came Crazy Laura's voice: "Stay out of there—I tell you Roady! Stay out of there! It's something that mortals shouldn't see—it's something—stay out—stay out!" "I won't—unlock this door!" "I can't do it—the time hasn't come yet—I mustn't—" "You won't—well, there's another way." A crash, the sudden, stumbling feet of a man, then the scratching of a match and an exclamation: "So this is your immortal, eh?" Only a moaning answered, mean- terningled with some vague form of a weird chant, the words of which Fairchild in the musty, dark hall below could not distinguish. At last came Squint's voice again, this time in softened tones: "Laura—Laura, Honey." "Yes, Squint." "Why didn't you tell your sweet-heart about this?" "I mustn't—you've spolled it now, Roady." "No—Honey. I can show you the way. He's nearly gone. What were you going to do when he went—?" "He'd have dissolved in air, Roady—I know. The spirits have told me." "Perhaps so." The voice of the scarf-faced, mean-visaged Squint Rodaine WAN MCC "What Have You Got This Door Shut For?" was still honeyed, still cajoling. "Perhaps so—but not at once. Isn't there a barrel of lime in the basement?" "Yes." "Come downstairs with me." They started downward then, and Fairchild watched them pass, Rodaline in the lead, carrying a smoking lamp with its half-broken chimney careening on the base, Crazy Laura, mummbling her toothless gums, her baglike hands extended before her, shuffling along in the rear. He heard them go far to the rear of the house, then descend more stairs. And he went flat to his stomach on the floor, with his ear against a tiny chink that he might hear the better. Squint still was talking in his loving tones. "See, Honey," he was saying. "I've broken the spell by going in stairs. You should have told me. I didn't know—I just thought—well, I thought there was some one in there you liked, and I got jealous." "Did you, Roady?" she cackled. "Did you?" "Yes—I didn't know you had him there. And you were making him immortal?" "I found him, Roady. His eyes were shut, and he was bleeding. It was at dusk, and nobody saw him when I carried him in here. Then I started giving him the herbs—" "That you've gathered around at night?" "Yes—where the dead sleep. I get the red berries most. That's the blood of the dead, come to life again." The quaking, crazy voice from below caused Fairchild to shiver with a sudden cold that no warmth could eradicate. Still, however, he lay there listening, fearful that every move from below might bring a cessation of their conversation. But Rodaine talked on. "Of course I know. But I've spoiled that now. There's another way, Laura. Get that spade. See, the dirt's soft here. Dig a hole about four feet deep and six or seven feet long. Then put half that lime from the barrel in there. Understand?" "What for?" "It's the only way now; we'll have to do that. It's the other way to immortality. You've given him the herbs?" "Yes." "Then this is the end. See? Now do that, won't you. Honey?" "You'll kiss me, Roady?" "There!" The faint sound of a kiss came from below. "And there's another one. And another!" "Just like the night our boy was born. Don't you remember how you bent over and kissed me then and held me in your arms?" "Im holding you that way now, Honey—just the same way that I held you the night our boy was born. And I'll help you with this. You dig the hole and put half the lime in there—don't put it all. We'll need the rest to put on top of him. You'll have it done in about two hours. There's something else needed—some acid that I've got to get. It'll make it all the quicker. I'll be back. Honey. Kliss me." Fairchild, seeking to still the horror-laden quiver of his body, heard the sound of a kiss and then the clatter of a man's heavy shoes on the stairs, accompanied by a slight clink from below. He knew that sound—the scraping of the steel of a spade against the earth as it was dragged into use. A moment more and Rodaine, mumbling to himself, passed the door. But the woman did not come upstairs. Fairchild knew why; her crazed mind was following the instructions of the man-who knew how to lead the lunatic intellect into the channels he desired; she was digging, digging a grave for some one, a grave to be lined with quicklime! Upstairs was some one who had been found by this woman in an unconscious state and evidently kept in that condition through the potations (Continued next week) Daddys Evening Fairy Tale MARY GRAHAM BONNER COPYRIGHT BY WESTERN NEWSPAPER UNION "I'm a queer creature, I suppose," said Peggy, the horse, to Sambo, the other horse. "What makes you say that?" asked Sambo. "I have never noticed that you were queer at all." "Well," said Peggy, "we take people out for rides and they admire the beautiful scenery and the lovely views and all of the wonderful country and sights about these parts. "But they don't mean so much to me, if anything at all." "They don't mean so much to me, either," said Sambo. "In fact, they don't mean anything to me." "Well, perhaps I'm not queer, then," said Peggy. "Perhaps I'm queer, too," said Sambo. "That's so," agreed Peggy, "perhaps that is the way it is. But when I hear the people rave so about the scenery, I feel that I must be queer. "The scenery is all right enough, but I don't care about stopping and gazing at it. "Of course I'm willing enough to stop and let them gaze at it. But I would be as willing to stop one place as another, though they have special places that they want to stop. "I've grown so used to those places and spots where people want to stop and admire the view that I just naturally slow up, for I know what they are going to say if I don't. "They are going to say to our driver: "Oh, please, can't we stop and look at this lovely view for a minute." "So I stop and save them all the trouble of saying that. But it is "The Most Beautiful View." funny! How they do love views and scenery. In the summer I like stopping best of all, for then I can eat the grass along the way. "In the winter I don't mind stopping for a rest once in a while, but I'm not so eager to stop in the winter as I am in the summer. "Still, I like to take my little rests and I do it at just these certain points when I know the people are going to ask to stop, anyway." "Yes, and I do the same," said Sambo. "But you're a bit lazy than I am." "My master says," Peggy agreed, "that I am lazier than you are. He says that I always recognize a lady's voice, and that I turn around and see when there is a lady in his carriage, and then I stop very often by the views, and because, too, I know the ladies like to see a nice horse rest, for I don't love to work hard! Though I'm not really lazy. "Oh, yes, I know ladies when I see them and when I hear them. I'm bright enough for that. Indeed, yes!" "I'd be stupid if I didn't know them, and horses aren't stupid, they're intelligent." "That's right," said Sambo, "and our master thinks we're an intelligent pair, too. He is right, I must admit it, he is right. "But, Peggy, you have to admit that along the roads where our master takes us to drive, or rather where we take him, it is far more beautiful than if we drove off in some other directions where we would see quack-quacking ducks and dull little houses. "Yes, you must admit, we do go through beautiful country." "I admit it," said Peggy, "but I'll tell you what I think is a beautiful sight. "Yes, I'll tell you what kind of a sight would make me stand still and admire." "What?" asked Sambo: "A pile of hay would be the most beautiful view I could imagine," said Peggy.
