REHARDD PLANET CAPTAIN WILLIAM H CARTER LAID AT REST Funeral services over the remains of Captain William H. Carter, who died on Sunday, October 25th, 1914, were held the following Wednesday at one o'clock, at the Second Baptist Church. The building was well-night filled with sorrowing relatives and friends, and the large number of beautiful floral designs mutely attested the esteem in which the deceased was held. Dr. Z. D. Lewis, the Pastor, in his usual masterly way, delivered what might be termed a sermon-cology, paying a most touching and glowing tribute to the life and character of the deceased, dwelling especially upon his religious activities, the pride he took in his home and family, his remarkable mental gifts, and commending most particularly his services on the Trustee Board of the Second Baptist Church of which he was a member. The Church Choir, under Prof. Crump, sang appropriate selections, among them, "There is a land of pure delight," etc. one of the deceased's favorite hymns. Miss Bessie Lomax feelingly rendered as a solo "There is rest for the weary," and Prof. William B. Smith, always charming to hear, sang "Come Holy Spirit, Heavenly Dove," etc., another favorite hymn of the deceased. The body was then conveyed to Evergreen Cemetery where, "mild the tears and sighs of his bereaved family and friends, it was tenderly laid to rest in the family plot. Captain Carter was born in Goochland County, Va., about 65 years ago. Later on he came with his parents to live in this city, and, under the skillful guidance of his father, soon mastered the trade of shoemaker. His parents then removed to Rio Vista, Hearne County, Va., but Capt. Carter, upon marrying, took up and continued until his death, his abode in this city, pursuing his occupation of a shoemaker when not engaged in other lines. Captain Carter held a number of positions of honor and trust. He was in the early seventies a U. S. Government Watchman at Granite, Va., when the famous guarriers at that place formed the stone for the Philadelphia Post Office Building. Later on he was a Clerk in the Richmond Post Office. In 1875 he was commissioned by the then Governor Keuper captain of a volunteer company of light infantry, called "The Keuper Guards," attached to the 102nd Regiment of the State Militia, and this is why he was called "Captain" Carter. He was also for several terms Supreme Keeper of Records and Scales of that branch of theords and Seal of that branch of the Eastern and Western Hemisphere contingent, traveling extensively in its interest, and held responsible positions in most of the many fraternal organizations with which he was at times affiliated. He early took great interest in politics, and it is doubtless in this line more than in any other by which he will be long remembered, for he became unusually prominent as a political leader. He was regarded as possessing rare, oratorical powers, and his services on the stump in behalf of his party were in constant demand all over the state when Colored people had political aspirations. He frequently represented his party in state conventions and was once selected a presidential elector. When the 15th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution used to be celebrated, he was often chosen to deliver the principal oration. While denied the advantages of schooling, except for a very brief period, he evinced unusual literary tastes, and his productions, whether in the capacity of a newspaper reporter or as a contributor, possessed such apparent scholastic merit as called forth very flattering commendation from recognized literary authorities. Captain Carter also at one time stood well with the authorities of this city, and many of the first Colored public school teachers of which we can boast owed their selection to his wide influence. Truly a useful citizen and Christian has gone to his final reward, leaving behind, besides his grief-sticken family, a wide circle of admiring and graterful friends to behold him. The best part of his life—that part when the pulse beats strong and the blood tingles through every vein; when hope is brightest and opportunity for selfish ends most inviting—he gave to his fellowmen. It was not surprising, then, that old age should have stolen upon him without those accumulations which men no highly praise—the material things of this world. But few men of his men had accumulated more numerous or richer memories of self-encircling deaths in behalf of others to show and comfort him in his despair than then he; and those will have given their worldly possessions that accounted to real ENTERED INTO REST.

Prosecution Failed-to Make Out Case--Pathetic Scene in the Court Room. The Colored Man's Declaration. "I am going on thirty-six years old. This is the first time I've ever been in real trouble. Once I was arrested for stealin' a cow and sent to the road for a year, but I'll never do it again. This trial can't last long. It can't, for I ain't doge nothin', and they can't prove it on me."—JOHN CLEMENTS, in the Richmond, Va. Evening Journal, October 27, 1914. The White Girl's Assertion. "That's the man who attacked me. I am positive. There is no question about it. I know he is the man."—Miss FANNIE CHEKAULT, in the Richmond, Va. Evening Journal, October 27, 1914. John Clements is not guilty of attacking Miss Fannie T. Chenault near her house on the Seven Pines line on the night of May 9th. So said the jury in the Henrico Circuit Court this morning, after having deliberated over the merits of the case exactly eighteen hours.—Richmond, Va. Evening Journal, October 30, 1914. A verdict of not guilty was today returned in the case of John Clements the negro tried in the Henrico circuit court on an indictment charging him with a capital crime against Miss Fannie T. Chenault. The verdict was rendered at 11:20 o'clock. The jury had been out 18 hours. Clements received the verdict in silence. He gripped the railing in front of him when Deputy Clerk Fletcher ordered him to stand up. He was visibly nervous. Sitting back in his seat, he turned to Father Hannigan and his attorneys and thanked them for the service they had rendered him. Miss Chenault was not in court when the verdict was announced. Her father, W. W. Chenault, said he had no statement to make at this time. The consensus of opinion seemed to be that the verdict was a just one. Immediately after the verdict was returned, Clements was arrested on a warrant charging him with the theft of a wrench from Charlie Dean. He was tried in the lower court immediately after his acquittal on the serious charge. His attorneys announced that in case of conviction they would immediately appeal to the higher court. FREED ON LARCENY CHARGE Clements was acquitted by Magistrate Sunday on the charge of stealing the wrench. The trial was brief but a touch of the dramatic was given it by the appearance of Father Hannigan and his address to the court after the evidence had been heard. Attorney Irving May, who represented Clements, admitted to the court that the negro had taken the wrench from Charles Dean's farm on May 9. He said, however, that the pressing of the larceny charge after the negro's life had been in jeopardy was persecution. Charles Dean identified the wrench and said it was stolen from his farm. At the conclusion of the evidence, Father Hannigan was granted leave to address the court. He said: "Because of the state-wide popularity of the verdict in the case which has just ended in the circuit court, where this boy was on trial for his life, I ask as a man, a citizen and a minister of the gospel that he be liberated. I will take personal charge of him. "I will see that he is fed today: I will purchase a ticket to Norfolk for him and send him to his relatives. He has been incarcerated six months and I think he has been punished enough." Father Hannigan stated that none of the three attorneys who defended Clemente in the trial for his life received one cent of fee. He said they all felt he was innocent and gave their servants in the course of torture. REV. CHAS. F. HANNIGAN'S PLEA. Colored Man's Declaration six years old.

So said the jury in the Henrico Co er the merits of the case (actually eighteen hours The Jurors' Conclusion.

He dismissed the larceny charge and Clements left the courthouse in the custody of the priest. It was learned that when the jury retired last night it stood eleven for acquittal and one for conviction, the juror holding out for conviction being Walter Ford, it was said. The faulty identification of Clements by Miss Chenault, it is believed resulted in his acquittal. Miss Chenault, the defense proved, had identified a negro named Riddick in the city jail as her assailant. One of the jurors said today, that there was never any doubt in his mind as to the innocence of Clements. He said the jury would have returned a verdict yesterday afternoon, but for the one juror who held out for conviction. This juror did not decide to vote for acquittal until five minutes before the verdict was returned, it was learned. The jury, it was said, was on the verge of reporting to Judge Scott that it was hopelessly divided, when the twelfth juror announced he would vote with the other eleven. DIGGS DISAPPOINTED When seen this afternoon after the vordict was returned Attorney Diggs who represented the Chenault family said: "I do not like to criticize the verdicts of juries or the decisions of courts in cases in which I appear an counsel and do not mean to criticize the jury in this case I can only say that I was very sadly disappointed in the vordict. "I thought the evidence was amply sufficient to justify a conviction. Miss Chenault positively identified the negro. Eddie Martin saw a man following her and Mr. and Mrs. Veltch and Conductor Slaughter positively identified this man as the one who was loitering in the neighborhood of Pecot's switch immediately preceding the crime, and Clements must have been the man Martin saw following Miss Chenault. "This testimony I regarded as sufficient to fix the crime on Clements. "In regard to the identifications of Riddick and Thompson, the man killed by Sergent Krengle, they were clearly not the men, and I think the witnesses were mistaken in saying that Miss Chenault positively identified them. "Mr. Chenault is heart-broken at the verdict, and I feel very sorry for him. I think, however, that the jury acquitted Clements on the grounds of lack of identification and not because it doubted the truth or sincerity of Miss Chenault." JURY SENT BACK. REV. CARROLL, AND THE MAN. Plain Talk to Plain Men—Humorous Assertion. Rev. Richard Carroll, the great South Carolina evangelist talked to men last Sunday afternoon, 3:30 of the Fifth St. Baptist Church. His remarks were along the lines ofology and at no time since the Church has been founded has any man spoken like this man spoke. He had about five hundred hearers and he will continue the subject tomorrow (Sunday) at 3:30. The indications are that he will have a body of men to greet him from the pulpit to the doors. Rev. Carroll declared that there were but three "animals" that commit rape, a goat, a rooster and a man. PRACTICAL ADVICE : He then gave practical advice to men. He referred to the women, but gingerly passed over that subject. At the conclusion, although he had previously announced that the subject would be a nasty one, the meeting by a show of hands unanimously approved of the valuable advice he had given. At times, Rev. Carroll mimicked the drunkard and the Liberate to the infinite amusement of those present. These talks are a feature of his lecture course and they have been the source of much good to many of his hearers. GO TO FIFTH ST. TOMORROW. Rev. Richard Carroll The Attraction. Rev, Richard Carroll of South Carolina is here with the white ministers leading the Baptist evangelistic crusade against the forces of hell in this community. He will preach Sunday, Sth, inst. at 11:20 A. M. at the Fifth St. Baptist Church. There will no doubt be a large crowd to hear, this remarkable divine. He has been conducting revival meetings this week at the Fifth St. Baptist Church to a steadily increasing congregation. In the afternoon tomorrow, he will speak at 3.30 exclusively to men. He will preach again at 8 P. M. to both men and women. It will be a rare opportunity to hear him at his beat. CARD OF THANKS. Mrs. William H.

A SHOCKING TRAGEDY. A Quarrel About Chickens. As the result of a quarrel over the sale of some chickens, Edward Stokes, colored, forty-four years old, was shot and killed by Eugene Johnson, also colored, Friday afternoon Oct. 30th, at 4:30 o'clock. The shooting occurred in a field adjoining the home of Stokes, at 1728 West Leigh street. Stokes alleges that Johnson approached him with a shotgun, and that he drew his own pistol and fired in defense. He fired three times more, according to the police, but it was the first shot that found its mark and sent Stokes to his death. As he ran from the man, still firing at him, Stokes shouted to his wife and told her to call the city ambulance; that he was shot and mortally hurt. Stokes died within a few minutes of being placed in bed. Johnson was arrested in his home at 1770 Moore Street by Policeman Reid, and was looked up in the Second Police Station. PRICE, FIVE CENTS. PETERSBURG EASY VICTIM Whitewashed by Union 64-0. Va. Union University, Richmond, Va. dealt an ignominious defeat to Va. Normal and Industrial Institute-Peterburg, Va. on the latter's Campus last Saturday. The large score is not due to the fact that Petersburg has a weak team—but that Union was so much the stronger. Yet the brilliant plays and straight, football of the visitors placed the game above the featureless class. Union made 15 first downs. Petersburg only one. One of the noteworthy points of the game was the quickness of time in which Union made a touch down. The quickest one was made in the second quarter by half-back Thompson. On the kick off he captured the pigskin on Union's twenty yard line. Following his interference until halfway up the field, he suddenly darted out and by stiff arming and clever ducking, crowned his 50 yard dash with a touchdown. In the second half, Coach Fisher placed the scrubs on the field. But the slaughter did not cease. Touchdowns were made with the same rapidity. For Petersburg, Capt. Peyton seems to have captured all honors. For Union, the usual stars, Duck-wilder, Taylor, Capt. Howell and H. T. Thompson, stand in the time light. PLAY HAMPTON NEXT. Union goes to Hampton Friday to battle with the holders of the football championship of 1913. A close game is predicted. Union at present has the best chance she has ever had to whip Hampton. Her Captain H. E. Howell was chosen as Full- back for the All American team by Director E. B. Henderson. From this year's team two other men will probably be All American players.

The chatter of monkeys and the shrieks of birds filled the air. But no odds how bleak the prospect, how forlorn the hope, one always feels courage renewed when when has just glimpped a greater danger and averted it. Lucille had known within the quarter hour the horror of blindness, and her heart leaped high with joy at being able to see these things. In this same jungle, with her, in quite as bad a predicament, was Hugo Loubeque, and with Hugo Lobeque were the papers she had fought so hard to recover. She spoke aloud, her voice trilling a note so foreign to this black abode that even the animal life was aliened in amazes. "He shall not keep the papers long" were her words. The thought braced her as would a douse of cold water. To right, to left, before her and behind was naught but jungle. Which way should she turn to come across the international spy? She felt the amulet about her neck with nervous, plucking fingers, as though seeking to read the answer there. Safety lay behind, back along the trail in the village of the chief who had so reluctantly permitted her to answer the trumped up message from his neighbor. But she did not wish safety. She wanted the papers and civilization. In which direction to go she must leave to the power that had guided her steps so far, but she knew she must make quick choice. --- As though her question was to be answered for her, she noticed the character of the monkeys suddenly changing, observed a wild alarm in their voices, and, looking up, saw a host, an army of them, huddled close together, then slipping swiftly in wild disorder from tree to tree. Ludlie felt a thrill of something more than uneasiness coming upon her as she stared into the blackness to make out the reason for their alarm. Swiftly she shrank back before the blazing balls of fire that were fastened upon her from the heavy wall of vines and creepers. Again that crockling of twigs, this time in greater volume, and where before but one pair of wild eyes had stared at her there were now many eyes. She recollected the fires her savage friends had built of nights that the jungle beasts might not disturb them. But she had no means of lighting a fire. She was alone, with nothing to assist her save her own ingenuity. She retreated slowly, fear hanging upon her feet, holding her back even as low growls indicated that her retreat was observed and would probably be taken for a sign of fear. At the sound the trees were shaken violently by another rush of the little tree men. It gave her an idea instantly. Even as the eyes grew miraculously into long, graceful bodies, Lacie reached up and grasped the thick walls of creepers dangling from a giant trunked tree. Came a rush so silent and sure foreshed she could hear but the faint put, put of the leopard's feet, followed by a heavy click of jaws. Instinctively she drew her feet up under her and, fear lending impetus to her movements, clambered swiftly up the vines until the welcome crotch of the tree supported her. Higher and higher she climbed until the terrifying sight of the leopards encircling the tree was shut from her eyes by the heavy foliage beneath, climbed until her muscles ached, climbed until even the crunching of twigs beneath failed to reach up to her. Above her flickered a myriad of stars. Like peepholes in some great theater curtain they were through which the master player might watch what was going on in his world. They thrilled Lucille with their familiarity. So long she had been here in this jungle she seemed to have forgotten the existence of stars, regarded them as old friends. These same stars that looked down upon her now were looking down upon Manila, upon her father, upon her sweet heart. These same stars were candles of truth that would not could not, unblushingly look upon such a disaster as threatened her being consummated. And then her eyes were halted, stayed in their review of the stars by the sight of a long, thin spiral of smoke rising and reaching up toward the stars in wispy fragility. It came from miles to the westward. But Lucille knew that smoke for fire and the fire to be that lighted by human handa, [TO BE CONTINUED.] G. O. P. Victorles-Please Taft.

Governor—Martin G. Brumbaugh. Leutenant governor—Frank B. McClain. Secretary of internal affairs—Henry Houck. Congressmen-at-large—John R. K. Scott, Daniel F. LaFean, Mablon M. Garland and Thomas S. Crago. Brumbaugh's majority for the governorship over Vance C. McCormick, Democratic-Washington party nominee, probably is in excess of 200,000. Penrose will have a plurality of equal size over his nearest opponent, as the vote against him was divided between Gifford Pinchot, Washington party candidate, and A. Mitchell Palmer, Democratic nominee. Judge Frank M. Trexler, the appointee of Governor Toner on the bench of the state superior court, backed by the Republicans, is elected by a big majority over James E. Clark, temperance candidate, on the non-partisan ticket. Only one candidate supported by the Republicans may have fallen by the wayside—Judge Robert S. Frazer, slated for justice of the state supreme court. He may be defeated on the nonpartisan ballot by Judge George Kunkel, of Dauphin county, who won a reputation some years ago by the manner in which he presided over the capitol graft cases. The Republicans sweep up the congressional delegation of the state, gaining possibly fifteen seats over the present Republican representation in congress. The political division of the delegation now is eighteen Republicans, twelve Democrats and six Progressives. In the new congress the Republican members from Pennsylvania may total twenty-eight and the Democratic membership four. JERSEY DEMOCRATIC Have Elected Eight of the Twelve Candidates For Congress. Trenton, N. J., Nov. 4. -- Returns from the New Jersey election indicate the election by the Democrats of eight of their twelve candidates for congress, five of the eight candidates for the state senate and a safe majority of the house of assembly. This will retain them in majority in both branches of the legislature; but shows a loss of three congressmen, there being but two Republicans in the present house. The results in the several districts on congress wore: First-*William J. Browning, R. Second-*Ianac Bacarach, R. Third-*Thomas J. Scully, D. Fourth-*E. C. Hutchinson, R. Fifth-*William E. Tuttle, D. Sixth-*Archibald C. Hart, D. Senth-*Dow H. Drukker, R. Eighth-*G. E. McDonald, D. Ninth-Arthur B. Seymour, D. Tenth-*E. W. Townsend, D. Eleventh-*John J. Egan, D. Twelfth-*James A. Mamill, D. *Re-elected.* DELAWARE REPUBLICAN Thomas W. Miller Elected as United States Senator. Wilmington, Del., Nov. 4.—Socretary of States Thomas W. Miller, Republican, was elected as Delaware only representative in congress over Franklin Brockson, ... Democrat, the present incumbent, by a plurality throughout the state that will exceed 600. The legislature will probably be close. The Republicans will also elect Swain, Republican, as state treasurer, and Duff, Republican, as state auditor. The Vote In Arkansas. Little Rock, Ark., Nov. 4.—Arkansas voted for members of congress only. Two results follow: United States senator, James P. Clarke, Dem. Congressmen—First district, T. H. Caraway, Ded.; Second district, W. A. Oldfield, Ded.; Third district, J. T. Tillman, Dom. Tennessee in Democratic Column. Memphis, Tenn., Nov. 4.—General Thomas C. Ryp, Democratic candidate for governor, has defeated Ben W. Hooper, Republican present incumbent. The surprise has been the small vote in the Hooper stronghold cast and middle Tennessee. N. Carolina Elects Overman Senator, Raleigh, N. C., Nov. 4.—L. S. Overman, Democrat, was elected to the United States senate. There was little opposition. Ten Democratic congressmen were elected.

MARTIN G. BRUMBAUGH. Elected Governor of Pennsylvania on Republican Ticket. Counting in Nebraska Slow. Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 4. A six-foot ballot which contained constitutional amendments and a number of laws referred to popular vote has made the counting very slow. It is impossible to make any estimate upon the final result. Howell, Republican, is making substantial gains over two years ago, but these are not steady enough to indicate the victor. The first precinct returns on woman suffrage point to the defeat of the amendment. Arizona Democratic. Phoenix, Ariz., Nov. 4.—There was of a Democratic sweep in Arizona. The Arizona, Republicans have probably elected one-tax commissioner. Congressman Hayden leads the ticket. Eugene Chaffin, Prohibitionist, claims his election as senator, but the Democ rats say that Senator Mark Smith is re-elected by 10,000. Governor Hunt is safe. WEATHER EVERYWHERE.

J. 1814 by American Press Association WALSH WINS IN MASSACHUSETTS Democrats Elect Governor by Reduced Plurality. ors returned to the Republican ranks in droves, and as a result Governor David I. Walsh has barely squeezed through for re-election over Samuel W. McCall, the Republican nominee. Walsh has a plurality of about 15,000, while a year ago he led Charles S. Bird, the Progressive candidate, by 55,612. Joseph Walker, the Bull Moose candidate for governor, polled less than 40,000 votes as against 127,655 cast for Bird a year ago. Returns from the congressional districts are incomplete, but show that the Republicans have held all their present seats and added three more—in the Eighth, Eleventh and Sixteenth districts—and have prospects of winning also in the Thirteenth and Fourteenth districts. The legislature is Republican by an increased majority. INDIANA·IS CLOSE Returns Show Big Gains For Governor All Over. State. Indianapolis, Nov. 4.—Returns are meager, but those received are repre- sentative of all sections and show phenomenal gains for the Republicans over tahrir vote of two years ago. Miller, for the United States sen- ate, is leading Shively, while Bever- idge is running a ponor third, with lea- th than half the number polled by each of his opponents. The loss of the Progressives, bea- ded by Beveridge, is nearly 200 per- cent, compared with the vote of two years ago. MARTIN G. BRUMBAUGH. Elected Governor of Pennsylvania on Republican Ticket. BROOKLYN ROOSEVELT IS DISGUSTED Colonial Retires Early After Hearing New York and Pennsylvania Result. Oyster Bay, N. Y., Nov. 14, Colonel Roosevelt went disgustedly to bed at 10 o'clock last night. By that time word had come to him that Whitman, was elected governor, that Davenport was running behind and that Colby and other Progressives were making a poor showing in the state. "So Whitman has won!" said the colonel, and he repeated the sentence musingly. "Was it the religious issue?" Then suddenly he said: "I have nothing to say, absolutely nothing." When the outlined reports of the various state elections were read to the colonel, including Penrose's victory in Pennsylvania, he summed it up as follows: "It seems to me that the Republicans are winning in the east and the Democrats in the west. I always go to bed early on election night," he added. WILSON VOTED IN PRINCETON President Takes Just Two Minutes to Prepare His Ballot. Princeton, N. J., Nov. 1.—President Woodrow Wilson paid a hurried visit to Princeton and for the second time since his election to the presidency voted the straight Democratic ticket in the quaint little firehouse of Mercor Engine company, No. 2, of the volunteer fire department. He was given ballot No. 89 when he entered the polling place on Chambers street. After spending two minutes by actual count, carefully marking his ballot in the little booth designed for that purpose, he came out and handed the folded paper to R. H. Rose, the judge of election. "Ballot No. 89 is voted," announced Mr. Rose, in due accordance with the strict New Jersey election laws. The president smiled broadly. "Not 89, but 79," he said, referring to the class with which he graduated from Princeton thirty-five years ago. CALIFORNIA IN DOUBT Progressive Probably Elected Governor and Republican U. S. Senator. nor and Republican U. S. Senator. San Francisco, Nov. 4. The result in California is still in doubt, but Hiram Johnson, Progressive, appears to be elected governor, with Fredericks, Republican, second, and Curtin, Democrat, third. Indications are that the prohibition amendment will be defeated. Joseph Knowland, Republican, I probably elected United States senator over D. Pholan, Democrat, with Honey, Progressive, third. Underwood Elected U. S. Senator. Birmingham, Ab. Nov. 4. The full Democratic state ticket, a solid Democrat delegative to congress and Oscar W. Underwood to the United States senate is elected. Efforts were made in the seventh congressional district by the opposition to defeat Congressman Burnett, but he had a majority over both the Republican and Progressive candidates. Republicans have a few members of legislature, but the number has been reduced. George Hutcheston, an attorney of Birmingham, succeeds Oscar W. Underwood as congressman from the Ninth district. G. O. P. Landslide in Vermont. Burlington, Vt. Nov. 4. The two Republican candidates for congress have carried the election by an over- whelming majority. The entire Rep- ublican state ticket headed by C. W. Gates, of Franklin, swept the state. The senatorial contest has ap- parently been won by Dillingham, Republican, over Pretty, Democrat and Progressive. Senator Stone Re-Elected St. Louis, Mo. Nov. 4. — Senator William J. Stone's election to the United States senate over Thomas J. Akins, of St. Louis, is assured. The Democratic claims of 50,000 plurality for Stone will be borne out. Eleven constitutional amendments confusing the voters has made the returns un- usually slow. Indications are that the suffrage amendment has been defeat ed decisively. The Progressive vot was light.

(Continued From First Page.) 5:12 o'clock yesterday afternoon. At 6:50 o'clock the jury reported it had been unable to agree on a verdict and was sent back for further deliberation. The jurors again reported, at 7:50 o'clock, that they were divided and were placed in charge of Sheriff L. H. Kemp for the night. The feature of the closing hours of the case was the warm argument between opposing counsel over admission as evidence of a written statement given by Miss Chonovault to Deputy Sheriff Webb Sydnor and Captain McMahon, of the city detective force. The jury had been instructed by the court and was about to retire when Attorney Haddon, one of the three lawyers defending the negro, arrose and asked that the statement be given to the jury. SMITH PROTESTS. In an instant Attorney Smith was on his feet protesting. He said he understood that the statement was to be admitted only to contradict Miss Chenault in her testimony on the stand, and that as her narrative as a witness was not different from what she said in her written statement, he did not think the statement should go before the jury. The court ruled that the statement was evidence and could be considered by the judge in any way it saw fit. Mr. Smith then allowed to recall Miss Chenault to show that certain language used in the statement was not her's, but had been submitted by Captain McMahon. This, the court ruled, could be done, and, after the statement had been read in detail to the jury by Attorney Haddon, Miss Chennault took the stand. She said the statement was substantially correct, but point-out the words that were not employed in the statement. She did not know the meaning of some of the words attributed to her in the statement. COURTROOM CLEARED Judge Scott ordered the courtroom cleared of all spectators while Attorney Haddon read the statement to the jury. Miss Chenault remained and showed no signs of embarrassment while, the statement was being read, nor did she appear to be upset when she took the stand. Just before the case was given to the jury, Juror Thompson rose and stated to the court that they deter their hands behind their ears to the facts in the case. He suggested that a doctor be called and asked certain questions. Judge Scott ruled that he had no authority to summon additional witnesses, but that if the jury so decided would recall any witness who had been testified in the same time he held the jury. The court for it to decide was whether or not the prisoner at the bar was guilty of the crime charged in the indictment. AN ATTENTIVE JURY The jurors paid close attention to the reading of the statement, several of them leaning over and putting their honds behind their ears to catch every word. Others appeared to be somewhat surprised and shocked at some of the foul language used. The general impression was that the statement would seriously hurt the chances of the prosecution in securing a verdict of guilty, carrying with it the death penalty. Clements showed no signs of nervousness or fright while the jury was out. He had been assured that a verdict of guilty would not be returned and he seemed confident of acquittal. A verdict may be rendered this evening in the case of John Clements, the negro accused of a capital crime against Miss Fannie Chenault, and who has been on trial in the Montico county court for three days. The defense closed this afternoon. Clements was not put on the stand, nor were any of the alibi witnesses, who were expected to swear the accused man was in RICHMOND on the night of May 3, when the attack should have been made on the girl. Attorney-Pollack, chief counsel for the defense, said he was satisfied the state had not made out a case and it was deemed unnecessary for the negro or his alibi witnesses to take the stand. Instructions submitted to Judge Scott without argument were given to the jury this afternoon, and argument was adjudicated. The opinion seemed to prevail around the courthouse that a verdict of guilty, carrying with it the death penalty, was improbable. QUESTION ABOUT WEAPON. Those who held to this opinion pointed, to the fact that not even Miss Chemaine herself would swear that a wrench, which the prosecution sentenced was the instrument the young woman saw in her assailant's pocket, was the weapon with which he threatened her. Attention was also called to the fact that two of the prosecution's witnesses—J. Morrie Carter and W. M. Vincent—had been sufficiently highly favorable to Vincent, who first arrested Clements, testified that he did not think he had the right man because he did not find a pistol on him. He understood that Miss Chenault, in giving a description of her assailant, had said she saw a pistol in his pocket. The wrench is undoubtedly the strongest link, except perhaps, Miss Chenault's idolification of Clements, in the chain of evidence the prosecution has endeavored to wield about the gun. The wrench found on Clements has two handles, and with only the handles exposed to view it does. look something like a pair of curling irons or a double-barreled pistol, which Miss Chenault testified she saw in her assailent's left-hand hip pocket. ADMITS POSSESSION OF WRENCH The defense admits that Clementa was in possession of the wrench offered in evidence, and that he took it and planted it on Dan's farm on the morning of May. 9. Miss Chenault's narrative of the attack made on her, it is generally believed at the courthouse, will acquit Clements. She told the jury the crime was committed within a hundred yards of her, own home, within twenty-five feet of a public road, that she heard people passing along the road while her, assailant held her a prisoner, that he forced her to crawl through a three-strand harbed wire fence, that she conversed with him freely, told him to be careful not to shoot himself and that she made no outcry and made no attempt to escapе when the negro left her and went a distance of about twenty-five feet. That anybody was coming. She also testified that she arose at 5:30 o'clock the morning after she was attacked, accompanied Policeman Seay to the scene of the crime and later went to Sunday-school walking a distance of about a mile. This part of her testimony is certain to be made capital of by the defense, and is believed already has made a deep impression on the jury. JURY EXAMINES SCENE. The jurors were taken to the scene of the alleged crime yesterday afternoon and made a close inspection of every foot of ground from stop 23 to whore Miss Chenault claims she was first attacked and to the spot where the young woman alleges she was mistreated. The jurors seemed especially interested in examining the ground between where Miss Chenault says she was first attacked and where she alleges the crime was committed. Judge Scott ordered all spectators to get away from the jurors while they went over the ground and discussed the possibilities of such a crime in the juvenile prison. Several of the jurors were seen stepping off the distance from the county road and the place of attack. The exact spot where Miss Chenault claims she was harmed is situated in a thicket of gum saplings about as high as a man's shoulder, and the road is about thirty feet away. The commonwealth announced that it rested its case and the defense immediately began the presentation of its testimony. Detective Sergeant F. L. Krenge was the first witness called. It was Krenge who killed the negro Samuel Thompson, a suspect. Krenge said that Clarence Wyatt and Miss Chonault went with him to look at the dead negro. "At first Miss Chonault said, 'He is the man, then, later, she said he was not the man,' the witness said. Krenge told of some measurements Miss Chonault made and Miss Chonault suggested. Witness said Miss Chonault told him her assailant was a very black man, had a sharp pointed nose and a small moustache. Detective Sergeant Atkinson was next called. Atkinson talked with Miss Chenault in reference to her assailant. He was also present when Miss Chenault went to look at the dead negro. He said Miss Chenault first said the dead negro looked like he was an assailant. He said assailant was certain he was not the man. Atkinson said Miss Chenault said the hat worn by the dead negro had a wider brim than the one worn by her assailant. Witness said the dead negro was lighter than Cloments. He also, said Miss Chenault, had made conflicting statements in describing her assailant. Witness said her assailant had a brim like the head of her assailant were thinner than those of the dead negro. Atkinson said Cloments' lips were thinner than the dead negro's. Atkinson also said there was light dirt on the clothing of the dead negro's overalls. MAGISTRATE ON STAND. Magistrate R. A. Smith, who, with Magistrate H. S. Sunday, presided at the preliminary hearing, but who dissented, from Sunday's decision to send Clements on to the grand jury, was next called. Magistrate Smith fastly contradicted the testimony of Miss Chenault regarding the bundles she had when attacked. The witness said that Miss Chenault testified in the lower court that she did not drop her bundles when the negro attacked her. Miss Chenault testified THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA Tuesday that the binder dropped to the ground when she was attacked Magistrate Smith also contradicted T. W. Seay, who gave damaging evidence against the accused negro Seay testified that Miss Chaucapt posed a threat to her life. The time she saw him, Magistrate Smith said Seay testified before him that Miss Chaucapt was not positive in her identification. McMAHON TESTIFIES. Captain of Detectives McMahon was next called. Captain McMahon told of Miss Chenault's identification of the negro Riddick in the city jail. He testified that at Miss Chenault's request Riddick was made to get in several positions and to show his teeth. Witness swore H. T. Veitch pointed to the negro Riddick and exclaimed, "That's the man." Captain McMahon also swore that Martin had identified Riddick as the man they saw at the switch on the evening of May 9. Witness said Miss Chenault positively identified Riddick, saying "This is the man." After Miss Chenault identified Riddick Captain McMahon said he remarked to Deputy Sportif Sydnor: "This is a case for the grand jury." Captain McMahon swore that Miss Chenault, in referring to Martin, said: "He is going to stick to me." Witness testified that both Velch and Martin were positive in their identification of Riddick. Both sword he was the man. He said he cautioned Mrs Chenault against making any mistake as a man's life was in danger. He said the man; Captain McMahon testified. STATEMENT IS EVIDENCE. Captain McMahon told of a written statement made by Misa Chenault to himself and Deputy Sheriff W. W. Sydnor. Attorney Smith objected to the introduction of the 'statement'. The court ruled that the statement was evidence and would go before the jury. This was regarded as a big point gained by the defense. Captain McMahon testified that the state attorney Chenault before she signed it and that not a word was written without her consent. He was positive on this point. The statement was made Monday, May 18, witness said. Asked by Mr. Smith what would be the use of Misa Chenault going to the city jail to look at another suspect after she had identified RI-1dick. Captain McMahon replied: "I haven't the alightest idea." SISTER WAITING. While Miss Chenault was making her statement, Captain McMahon said he told her it was getting late and that if it it took much longer he would have to send an officer home with her. He said the prosecutor replied, "Oh, that is all right. My sister is waiting for me." After she had finished making her statement, Captain McMahon said he told Miss Chenault, "Now, Miss Chenault, is this statement all right?" and that she replied, "Yes, it is all right." "When you, were told that Miss Chenault had identified another no-rose, didn't you throw up your hands and say: "Oh, my God!" asked Mr. Smith, Witness replied that he did not. When said he had conclusively made up his mind that Riddick was the man who had attacked Miss Chenault because he had seen the prosecutor positively identify him and had seen her identification, corroborated by Veitch and Martin. Mr. Smith wanted to know why the witness had gone to the trouble of gathering evidence against Riddick when Sydnor had told him Miss Chenault had identified another nero Captain McMahon replied that Sydnor was mistaken in the information he had. He said Sydnor casually remarked, "She has identified someone else." Deputy-Sergeant Atkinson who was present at the city jail when the defense contends Miss Chenault identified Riddick, was the next witness. IDENTIFIED RIDDICK. "Witness said Veitch pointed to Riddick and said: "That's the man." Riddick is still in the city fall. Deputy Sheriff W. W. Sydnor, of Henrico county, was next called. Sydnor said the first man arrested as a suspect was a negro named Walter Lee, employed at the time by Wyatt Transfer Company. Witness said Misa Chenault told him her assailant had thin lips, shapely nose and beautiful teeth. On this description Sydnor said he arrested. Sydnor said he had Misa Chenault if she were not a fact that someone in the employ of Clarence Wyatt was not responsible for the crime and that she replied: "I know it wasn't one of the drivers." Witness said Miss Chenault told him after having looked Riddick over the first time she was positive he was not the man. It was the second. Chenault said the Riddick that the defense claims the was identified. PROSECUTRIX INTERESTED Miss Chenault, manifested great interest in Sydnor's testimony and made notes of his evidence. Sydnor told of the detailed story of the alleged crime given him by Miss Chenault. He said the young woman told him her assistant threw a gun in her face when he first attacked her in the road. Witness testified that the prosecxtrix told him she did not drop some bundles she was carrying when she was attacked in the road. Much of Sydnor's testimony is unprintable. A pin drop could have been heard in the courtroom during this part of the deputy's narrative and the jurors leaned over to catch every word. Sydnor, told of the identification of the negro. Ribdick by Miss Chenault, Martin and Vetch. CERTAIN IN IDENTIFICATION. At first, witness said, on seeing him, Miss Chenault said: "I believe that's the man." After Riddick had been made to get into several positions and she had closely looked him over, Syndor said Miss Chenault declared: "I am satisfied that's the man." Syndor also testified that Veltch said on pointing to Riddick. "That's the nigger; I'll swear it on a million Bibles." Syndor swore Martin said he would swear on a thousand Bibles that Riddick was the man. Syndor also told of hearing Miss Chenault say "That's Martin, he's going to stick to me." Witness said Miss Chenault did not identify Clements the first time she went to the county jail to look at him. Syndor testified he had relied to arrest Clements the second time she went to the county jail to want the negro arrested. Chenault wanted he had heard that Clements had stolon wrench from Charlie Dean's farm that looked like the instrument found on Clements when he was first arrested at Seven Pines. Sydnor then told of Miss Chenault's identification of another suspect at the courthouse, saying: "I belong to the he man." Sydnor then think Miss Chenault's description of her assailant fitted Clements. LOOKED LIKE PISTOL. Sydnor was turned over to Attorney Smith for cross-examination. Mr. Smith closely questioned the witness regarding what Miss Chenault told him she saw in her assailant's pocket. Sydnor was positive Miss Chenault told him it looked like a pistol. He asked her why she didn't pick it up and kill the wolf. She replied that she was afraid of "Don't you know, Mr. Sydnor that Miss Chenault did not identify the third suspect you smoke off asked Mr. Smith. "I know that she did identify him," witness replied. Mr Sutton, who was present at this alleged identification, here took Sydnor in hand. Mr Sutton wanted to know if Miss Chenault's identification of this suspect was so insufficient as not to warrant the holding of the negro. Sydnor replied it was. Mr Sutton then resumed his cross-examination. Asked if it were not a fact that Miss Chenault went from the city jail after identifying Hiddick to the county jail to look at Clements, witness said it was. "What was the use of going to look at Clements after Riddick had been identified?" "I wanted to give her every opportunity to make sure of her identification. Sydnor was positive that Miss Chenault did not then identify Clements. He said Miss Chenault said to him that Clements looked like the man, but she was it sure. Miss Chenault said she was important, saying she would come back nextday and Sydnor ordered Clements held for her. Miss Chenault did not come back and Clements was liberated. The defense then rested its case and the prosecution began its rebuttal evidence. Policeman Duke was the first witness. He testified that Miss Chenault did not identify Riddick. REBUTTAL TIMONY. Policeman C. J. Polkes denied that Miss Chenault had identified Riddick, but Martin and Velch did identify Riddick. County Policeman R. J. Tiller, who was present at the city jail when Miss Chenault went there to identify Riddick, said she told the officers that she thought he was the man who attacked her, but she was not convicted. County Jailor R. C. Garnett testified that he did not know whether or not Miss Chenault had identified Clements at the county jail. He said Deputy Sheriff Sydnor was not present at the time Miss Chenault saw Clements. County Policeman Seay said he told Sydnor that Miss Chenault had identified Clements as the man who twin brother. He declared that after Miss Chenault had seen Clements she did not want to see Riddick as she was certain Clements was the man. The negro Riddick was then placed on the stand. Riddick said he saw Miss Chenault shake her head when she looked at him in the city jail. Riddick and Clements were then ordered to stand up side by side for comparison. Miss Chenault then took her to the stand. She said she positively did not identify Riddick and that she positively identified Clements after leaving the city jail. Asked by Attorney Pollock she did not return to the county jail to take another look at Clements after she had told Clements she was not the negro until she not another look at her. Miss Chenault said she understood Syllor was to come to her. The attorney for both sides then rested their case. It was agreed that the instructions would be submitted to the court and that they would be given to the jury at 5:30 p.m. when court recourse occurred after lunch. It was expected that the case would go to the jury about 6 or 7 o'clock tonight. Boys'--Girls' Contest. VOTES CAST SINCE SEPT. 1, 1914. GIRL8. Ruby L. Peyton Florence M. Smith Irina Denny Thomas Thomas Thomas R. Becks, Staunton. Lynchburg, Va. Oct. 14, 1911. Greeting: Dear Christian Workers: Near three decades ago, the Negro Baptists in Convention assembled decided upon the establishment of Negro Baptist Educational Institution. Immediately this decision was materialized in the Virginia Theological Seminary and College, of Lynchburg, Va., an institution for the Normal, Academic, Collegiate and Theological training of the youth of the race. This educational plant has had unprecedented success, marvelous growth, and has wrought wonderfully for Christ's kingdom and humanity. Thousands of young men and women have entered its intellectual portals: hundreds have finished from its different departments, and to day are in every higher walk of life. This institution is an especial gift of God, a benediction to mankind. It educational enterprise, in the history of race freedom has equaled this in the race a permanent standing along, constructive and progressive lines. It has demonstrated the moral, mental and spiritual worth of the Negro. It has proved well his fitness, worthiness, his perseverance in a righteous work. It has won for the Negro the high approval of all well thinking people—white and colored. Today another call is made. Hear ye faithful Christian workers. A modernly equipped four-story brick structure has been erected for a Girls' Dormitory and to-day is occupied. This building complete with all equipment means an approximate cost of $20,000.00 thirty thousand dollars. Thursday, November 5th, it will be dedicated. Elaborate arrangements have been made for a great dedication exercise. We want to see ten thousand Baptists present. Let all Baptists come. Again, that day we want $1,100.00 one thousand and one hundred dollars. This amount is an urgent need. We are asking, most earnestly, churches to give from five to ten dollars, board members from five to ten dollars, individuals from one to five dollars, just as you feel able to respond to the needs now of a needy person. Remember the date. Come. If you can not come, answer this with some mime. Ministers will please urgently state this to their churches. FOURS for God and Education R. C. Woods, Pres. Va. Theo.

The true bill against him sits forth that on March 20, 1890, he was married to Frances Washington, in this city. With his wife still living and without procuring a legal separation from her it is charged, he married again in New York on January 1, 1907, taking to wife this time Ella Wilson. The grand jury failed to return a true bill against Joseph Strong, the colored man who, on October 3, shot and killed his wife, Mary F. Strong. The bullet, it was brought out, was intended for a man with whom Strong toured his life in co-operation. The killing was regarded as accidental, and the negro was released. BOYS AND GIRLS CONTEST.

Everybody was sipping tea and nibbling cakes save Mildred. For her tea and cakes had no charm, perhaps because she had poured the one and dispensed the other steadily for the past hour. She leaned back in her chair behind the tea table abently watching the little crowd of fashionably dressed men and women that were moving about the parlors, yet conscious nevertheless that the man beside her was observing her and enjoying her experience from his own standpoint, which was no different from her own that she often wondered how he could find anything in her to interest him. In a low voice he was telling her about the people before her eyes—how the woman in gray velvet had recently come into a fortune and how the girl in blue was sadly puzzled as to whether she would be happier with an American because she loved him or with an English oldest son because he was her to a title. She listened carelessly, scarcely replying. In reality her mind was busy with its own affairs. She was merely their hostess' country cousin who poured tea and to whom Hills Hubbard was somewhat attentive. "You must be very nice to him," Cousin Nell had advised the first day Mildred was in the house. "And why?" the girl had inquired. "Because he is a good match, as good as there is to be had. That counts very much in my world. Mildred. It may be that you will charm him, being a type that he is unacquainted with." Certainly it seemed that she had charmed him. Since the first day she met him he had been attentive to her, sending her doowers, taking her to ride in his motor and to lunch at the best places. She had been quite frank with him from the first in spite of Cousin Nell, telling him that her father was only a poor country doctor and this was the first time she had been asked to visit her cousin. As she leaned back in her chair she was wondering how it would seem to always have plenty of money, to buy one's frocks at the best shops, to live in a house where the work was done as by magic, to go about in a blue and gold motor and be able to hear all the best music. Just that afternoon Cousin Nell had said when she came in to inspect her toilet: "You understand, Mildred, that Mr. Hubbard will have something to say to you before you go home. There is but one answer for you to make, and I am sure he expects that one." "But—but I'm not certain I care for him enough," Mildred had stammered. Nell had stared at her. "My dear child! Do you think that any one in these days marries for love alone?" "I didn't know," the girl said humbly. Then she thought of her cousin's elderly husband, who was seldom visible save at breakfast time, and the hitherto concealed reason for Nell's strange marriage was suddenly revealed to her. Mildred had indeed experienced much since coming into her cousin's house. None of the golden rules which her parents had taught her were applicable here. Other ideals were cherished, other alms kept in sight. Her father and mother had married for love. Money they knew to be a great good without which one could yet be happy. The poorest person was as good as the wealthiest, provided he was of moral character. Yet, after all, when one was constantly meeting strangers how could one know more about them than their appearance revealed? Who cared whether Mrs. Poynter's first husband was living? She was the wife of a notable rich man and very agreeable. In Harlin she would have been looked upon with suspicion, but here she was counted. Yes, money was a wonderful thing. It brought one so much. Even if she did not love Mr. Hubbard she could no doubt be very happy with him. To be able to wear a dress like that gray velvet and black fur with long silver hems in them, each one of which represented a purseful of money, and rushed like Mrs. Orden's. The girl drew a long breath and stirred unmeanily. What would her father and mother say? What would Tom think? She bit her tip as the memory of his brave yet tender face possessed her. She could almost hear him sayings. Now, look here. Daffy-Down-Dilly, you are going up to town to visit your sister and she will have some fellowship for you. I know. Will wouldn't you'd say one word, and then I wouldn't feel so entirely down as I will be if you go without saying it." She had not said the word, and so she wanna quite free as far as Tom wanna concreted to marry Hills Hubbard if she chose. With a start she came back to reality and the sound of his voice. "You can understand that everybody is watching Miss Steuben with a great deal of interest. But there is no doubt in my mind that the Englishman will win out." "What makes you think so?" Mildred asked. "Because. That's a woman's reason. I know; but, as I say, it involves a good deal. The American, you see, has only his business prospects and for the present an average living. The Englishman has a fine old home, ancestry of the best, acres and tenants and a coronet about to descend upon his aristocratic bead." Mildred sighed and looked again at the girl in blue. She was very pretty as she stood with her back to a great mass of daffodils particularly, but now something about them set her heart to beating quickly with memories of home. A mouth later there would be a great showing of them in the little garden she and her mother tended. The dear, dear things! Nell had ordered them simply because they looked well against the wall paper of her drawing room, but to Mildred's girlish fancy they were vital, appealing. They meant home, the country, springtime-yes, and Tom, walking toward her, his face full of joy at sight of her. Oh, they had no business to be here in this hot, crowded room, jostled by furs and velvets, simple, open air blossoms that they were! No one apparently was aware of them save herself and the girl in blue, who had drawn one from the jar and was pulling it to pieces. A woman came across the room, see her cup down upon the table, smiled at Mildred and leaned toward Hills Hubbard. "I have something to tell you which I just now heard on the best authority," she said. "You have lost your wager, my dear boy. Love wins. Miss Bertha Steuben marries the American after all." "Is that possible?" he exclaimed. "I would not have belied it of her." He turned sharply. "You would do it yourself." "You would do it yourself? "Yes." Mildred said. He studied her a moment. "Yes. I believe you would," he said, "but in your case there are no parallel circumstances. My I come tomorrow when you are alone, dear, and explain to you what I mean?" Mildred turned white, but she faced him bravely. "No," she gasped. "No. It would be of no use. You see, I have just made up my mind to go home tomorrow. It's the best place for me. I think, and they want me, father and my mother and"— She stopped abruptly, with a virid blush. "Ah, I see!" Hilla Hubbard said. He looked very straight before him for an instant. In Mildred's car was ringing the absurd old nursery rhyme with which Tom had teased her before she set forth to visit her Cousin Nell: Daffy-Down-Dilly has gone up to town In her yellow petticoat and her green gown But Daffy-Down-Dilly was going home from town to be happy with her own. Feeding an Atlantic Walrus. The most expensive animal at the New York zoological park is the Atlantic walrus. On his arrival four years ago the animal weighed 140 pounds. He has now attained the weight of over 500 pounds. He requires forty pounds of clam meat daily. The labor of preparing his meals, cleaning his tank and the cost of the sea salt that must be added to the water make the expense of keeping him equal to that of feeding two large elephants. PRACTICAL HEALTH HINT. Rigo's Disease. The mouth disease that is most often responsible for general ill health is Rigga's disease (Pyrrhena alveolaris), but other forms of inflammation, such as an abscess at the root of the tooth, can also do mischief. The abscess may cause no pain or apparent inflammation, yet it may do a good deal of harm if the pus it forms passes into the blood stream. Among the many diseases which in certain cases can be traced to inflammation of the gums or tooth sockets are dyspepsia, rheumatism, anemia, high blood pressure with resulting headache or even heart and kidney disease, constipation and asthma. Possibly we may include ulcer of the stomach or intestines, gallstones and appendicitis. Of course, all these conditions are more frequently owing to other causes, but it is well to remember that they can originate in an ill kept mouth. Too often, unfortunately, we see broken and decayed teeth, loose and covered with tartar, in the mouths of persons who are in other respects careful in regard to personal hygiene. When the physician examines such a mouth he usually finds the gums swollen with a blue line along the edge of the teeth, and a very slight pressure will force out pus from between the teeth. As long as such a condition is present it is not much use to treat obstructive general symptoms of ill health.

IT is certainly time for the home gardener to think of caring for the surplus from the garden. Wise home growers have planned on having a sufficient supply of choice vegetables during the winter. These vegetables will have to be stored in order that they may be preserved. Onions and squash should be placed where there is sufficient heat and dryness to prevent any possible decay. The root crops—parsnips, carrots, beets, salify and turnips—are best buried in soil. A good sandy loam is excellent. Place a layer of soil in the bottom of a barrel or box, then a layer of roots, a layer of soil and so on. If the quantity of root crops is large enough the roots may be stored in a pit outside the house. A good way is to pile the vegetables in a conical form and place straw over them. Soil should be applied to cover this straw and more soil or manure added as the weather becomes colder. Sometimes a hotbed pit is used for storage, particularly if adequate facilities for ventilation are given and if protection from oversupply of water is afforded by covering the tops of the beds with boards and tarred paper. Protection should also be given against excessive cold by applying refuse over the tarred paper. Cabbages may be stored in the hot bed pit or in the garden by placing a little straw on the ground, removing the cabbages, roots and all from their location and placing them heads downward on this straw. A layer of cabbages four plants wide and of indeterminate length, with another layer over it three plants wide, all covered with straw and soil, will cause the cabbages to keep in the heat condition, especially if a location is chosen where ample drainage is possible. The whole aim in the storage of vegetables is to prevent sudden freezing and thawing, to give ventilation enough so that the product may keep well, to give moisture enough to some crops so that shrinking will be done away with and with other crops, squashes and onions in particular, to give heat enough so that they will not suffer from excessive moisture. RENOVATING HINT. How to Use Some Stains For Pine Floors. How can the ordinary pine floor be made presentable without covering it with a carpet? This is a problem which is perplexing many housewives. A number of stains and varnishes which have proved satisfactory for such floors have been worked out by students in household management in the home economics department at the college of agriculture, university of Wisconsin. Before applying the stain's the floor should be carefully smoothed with sandpaper or steel wool. If the floor is soft or very old, fill the pores of the wood and all cracks with a filler. A good paste for this purpose may be made from whiting or starch mixed with either oil or turpentine. Shellace varnish is often sufficient if the larger cracks are first filled with the paste mixture. The floor should dry for twenty hours and be sandpapered for a second time before the stain is applied. Here is a good method for giving a pine floor a pleasing finish with a slightly yellow maple color: Apply two costs of a mixture of one-half ounce burnt umber, one quart of raw linseed oil and two and one-half ounces of yellow ocher. Allow the floor to dry well and then wax. To give a floor, a good brown tine make a stain of one pint boiled linseed oil, one tablespoonful burnt umber, one pint of turpentine, one tablespoonful slena and two tablespoonfuls chrome yellow! This stain will serve as a filler as well as a finish on a smooth floor with no cracks. Apply two coats and then wax. For a light finish for a pine floor apply ammonia before the filler to penetrate the wood and deken it slightly. After the filler is dry sandpaper and apply two coats of varnish, rubbing each coat with powdered pumice stone. How to Make the Delicious Pinoche For the Kiddies. This is a delicious candy, easily made and wholesome for the children, tasting like maple: Boll two cupfuls of brown sugar, one-half cupful of milk or cream, one-quarter of a teaspoonful of salt and two lumps of butter the size of a walnut, stirring constantly. Have ready a cupful of ice water. When the sirup begins to darken and thicken try in the ice water. If it will roll into a soft ball under the fingers remove from stove, add one-half teaspoonful of vanilla and a cupful of nut meats which have previously been chopped fine. Walnuts, peanuts or pecans are good. For variety a cupful of cut-up marshmallows or coconut may be used. Beat hard until it begins to thicken on the spoon; then turn into buttered tins. It will "set" almost immediately, when it can be cut into squares. Put into the icebox for ten minutes. If not crisp it has not been well beaten.

Trum and a cymbal and a triangle and some sleighbells and a sandpaper dink and heaven knows what all. He plays all these at once or separ- ately, as the case may be. And he does it as well as if he were a cent- pede. We always wonder as we watch him where he keeps his other hands. "Forewarned is forewarned," but he must have been forewarned and spell-ed it wrong. He will watch the orchestra leader like a hawk, and at a given signal he will drop the pot lid he is boating and take a few pokes at an egg beater or a nutmeg grater. A trap drummer's sheet of music must read funny. We firmly believe he could take a handsaw, an ice cream freezer, a jack plane, a tree hook, a wash boiler, bottle of ink and a curtain rod and play the "Star Spangled Banner" on them, carrying all four parts. He will be tickling the rib of the triangle when the expression of the leader's face changes or he gives his batonic chair a wilder swing downward and "Blam, blam!" he swats the eternal daylights out of a bass drum. Then, while he is taking a rest from the bass drum, he rolls on the kettle-drum and stops it hurriedly to rub two pieces of sandpaper together briskly. Nobody but himself ever knows He is a noise trust, a combination in restraint of the musical trade. If he were to play only one instrument instead of all the lot about eleven other willing members of the musicians union would get jobs. We love the trap drummer, but down with him! He is our worst industrial menace.—Indianapolls Star. His Intentions.

MILPARK SCHOOL OF HAIR DRESSING, BENTON, MASSACHUSETTS HOW TO UTILIZE A WORK EVENING GOWN. Relaxation robes, charming affairs of the dutty woman's wardrobe are called. But what's in a name? It is more helpful to most women to tell of the ways and means of making this useful garment. Many, of course, are to be had in the shops, and varied are the prices asked for these garments. Exquisite are those of the de luxe family, while those for real comfort and utility are beautiful in line if not such exquisite material. The former are in many cases so much like the gowns for evening wear it is difficult to distinguish. Basques lend themselves readily to form attractive negligences, while the 'two piece' idea is thought well of for this purpose. Turkish trousers are also introduced, while the Chinese cont, worn over its accompanying straight skirt, is one of the most comfortable of all designs. Cape effects are charming. Lace packs worn over accordion plaited alps or the flounced skirt offer many suggestions to the clever needlewoman. In fact, a half worn evening dress in the hands of this woman has its days doubled, for it is a foundation for saving time and expense. A lace jacket or one of chiffon with a gown of this description would give the ingenious woman ample material with which to display her creative powers. Crepe de chine, all the soft alks, chalits, nibatross, quilted alk and the various crapes form the simpler negligees. The same hematitching, picot edging, ruch- es, puffs, net, lace, ribbon and ribbon reses, trim the more elabor- ate ones of lace, chiffon and alk. A Magnifying Pinhole. Obtain a piece of blackened card and make a hole in it with a needle; then place a very small object—say, for instance, a tiny insect—on the end of a pinprum gum to a strip of glitter and view this object through the needle hole in the card at about an inch from it. The insect will appear quite distinct and about ten times larger than its size; if, however, you suddenly withdraw the card without disturbing the object the latter will be invisible. The reason is that the naked eye cannot see at so short a distance as an inch but the card with the hole enables the eye to approach, within an inch and its not only well, but, as it were, ten times better than with naked eyes.

NEIGHBORS FIGHT SALE OF SHURCH TO NEGROES. Case Is Set For Hearing Record Judge Scott in City Circuit Court To-Day, but May Not Be Reached —Opposite Purchase of Uptown Property. (Richmond, Va. Times - Diapatch, Nov. 3rd, 1914. In a statement concerning the proposed sale of Immunael Baptist Church, to negroes, issued last night by a committee styling themselves the Citizens' Protective Committee, it is asserted that a house-to-house canvass of the homes on Leigh Street between Fourth and Fifth Streets, showed every house on the block to be occupied by white persons and all of them owned by whites with one exception. This canvass was made in July, after a number of representative citizens had appeared before the Ordinance Committee of the Council and argued the case, with the result that the committee changed its decision given in favor of overriding the segregation ordinance, and is said to be true at the present time. The statement issued last night characterizes as entirely wrong the statements made some time ago, in which it is said that the neighborhood had become a colored one. The committee holds that there has been but little change in the vicinity within in the last ten years, that it has always been a white neighborhood and that the location of the high school, the former Capitol of the Confederacy, the Medical College, an orphanage and other buildings of public interest, as well as the presence of many business men and women, students and professional workers within its boundaries is sufficient to warrant the enforcement of the segregation ordinance and to prevent the sale of the church property to negroes. SAY NEGROES WOULD PAY MORE THAN WHITES "The trustees would sell to no one because negroes will pay more than white purchasers. To gain a few more dollars, the trustees are willing to cause the sacrifice of hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of private and public property," is a direct statement made by the committee last night. The statement continues by saying that this is one of the more convenient sections of the city, that property here is valuable and that rents are better than in the West End. It says the entire section is aroused over the matter, and that white residents and property owners are convinced that it is, and not the church trustees, who are entitled to the sympathy of the city and to the protection of the law. The committee reported last night that the Immanuel Church was in a most prosperous condition at present, in spite of reports to the contrary. The financial report, made during the summer, showed the collections to be in excess of the expenses, according to last night's statement, which quotes the pastor as expressing his pleasure at the enthusiasm with which the winter work has been started. OPPOSE PURCHASE OF UPTOWN PROPERTY On the other hand, it is claimed that if Irimanuel is sold and Calvary Baptist Church is purchased, the indebtedness of that church will be more than doubled. It is pointed out that to the cost of purchasing that church will be added that of furnishing it; that it is situated within half a dozen blocks of four Baptist churches already established and flourishing, and that the change in the church location would leave many members without a convenient place of worship. Many of these members are old and infirm, it is said, and several are credited with saying they would prefer seeing the church in sahes rather than sold to negroes and the membership moved far unnoten. The case is scheduled to come before the City Circuit Court to-day, on application of the board of trustees to permit the sale of the church property to negroes. It is said, however, that there is some doubt as to whether it will be reached to-day. The Citizens' Protective Committee; which gave out the statement last night, is composed of the following: J. P. Richardson, F. J. Mahoney, M. Salomonsey, Joseph E. Folkes, W. T. Woolfolk and A. L. Vonderlehr. The case has been postponed until Nov. 10, 1914.

Fifteen-Year Old Boy Is Held for Trial Before Magistrate Sunday in Henrico County—No Evidence of Intent to Kill. Samuel Vaughn, a seventeen-year-old colored youth, who lived on the Williamsburg Road, was instantly sent to his death at noon Saturday Oct. 31st, when fifteen-year-old Anderson Baughy, also colored, leveled a single-barrel shotgun at him and blew the top of his head completely off with a load of buckshot. The youth says he did not know the gun was loaded. Bighy's father surrendered him to the authorities shortly after the killing, and the boy is being held in the Henrico County jail without bail. An inquest was conducted last Monday by Colony Coroner J. F. Bright at the County Courthouse. The coroner's jury found that Vaughn came to his death from gunshot wounds inflicted by Ba,by, and, while the youth who fired the fatal shot protests that the killing was accidental, it will be necessary for him to establish the fact in court before he will be released. From statements made yesterday, it appears certain that the youth entertained no ill will toward the boy he killed, for just before he fired upon him he had pointed the gun at another youth, but did not pull the trigger on that occasion. CAME OVER WITH OLD SHOTGUN IN HANDS Vaughn, with a younger brother, is said to have been at work white-washing the walls in a room at his home, when Bagby, who lived a short distance away, came over with an old shotgun in his hand. He entered the room and talked with the Vaughn brothers. He is said to have pointed the weapon toward the younger Vaughn boy, who told him to turn the gun in another direction, as he was afraid it might be loaded. Bagby then leveled the weapon at the elder brother, who was standing in a chair at the time. When Bagby pulled the trigger a load of buckshot crashed into Vaughn's forehead just above the eyes, tearing away the upper portion of his skull and scattering his brains upon the floor. Several negroes were soon on the scene. When Bagby's father, Griffin Bagby, arrived and saw what had happened, he surrendered his son to County Officer T. W. Seay, who had the boy locked up in the County Jail. Bagby protests that he did not know the gun was loaded, and that he had merely gone to the Vaughn home to see the boys. The Bagby and Vaughn families are neighbors and reside on the Williamburg Road, between the city limits and Seven Pines. MT. CARMEL'S RALLY. Bex. E. D. Coffee Active.

He and Valoy Charged With Assault To Murder Colored Preacher. (Montgomery Ala. Colored Alabamian. Below is an account taken from the news columns of The Montgomery Advertiser of the serious charge against Harry McCord, a deputy sheriff of Montgomery County, for the shopping of Rev. Thomas King, a colored minister of good and reputable standing, Rev. Thomas testified that he was held up on the corner of Grove and Hall Sts., this city, last Sunday night and robbed of $23 and shot. He declares that the two men were white. Harry McCord and a Syrian named Yaloy, have been arrested and in Police Court acknowledged that they were the two men, but charge Rev. Thomas with pulling a pistol and that the shot was fired in self-defense. The court seems to be taking due precaution in order that a gross injustice may not be done the man who was shot. McCord and Yaloy have been bound over under bonds of $1,000 each.—The Editor. The account taken from the Advertiner, follows: "Harry McCord, a deputy sheriff, and Mike Yaloy, a Syrian, were bound over to the grand jury in police court Wednesday afternoon on charges of assault to murder in connection with the shooting of King Thomas, a Negro preacher, who was wounded by a pistol ball early Sunday morning. The bond of each was fixed at $1,000. The charge of carrying concealed weapons against Yalay was nolle probed. The decision in the McCord case was given by Judge Elmore after arguments were heard as to the legality of the deputy's attempt to stop the Negro. Yaloy waived examination and further evidence in this case was not heard. The case of assault to murder against McCord was heard in the po- THE SECOND SOUND The CLEAR OF NEW YORK Unique Concert of New exclusive 60 Colored Musi Male Voices AT THE City Auditorium 8:15 P. M.

Ice court Monday. At this time King Thomas testified that he was help up by two white men early Sunday morning at the corner of Grove and Hall Streets and robbed of $23. He did not identify McCord as one of the men who approached him. McCord in his testimony, stated that he and Yaloy approached the Negro and asked his name. The Negro refused to answer but backed off, whereupon McCord advanced to put his hands on the Negro. The Negro then, according to the deputy's testimony, drew from his pocket a pistol, and Yaloy, seeing the move, drew his pistol and fired. Yaloy corroborated the deputy's testimony, stating that he was the one who fired the shot. Yaloy was then arrested in the court room. King Thomas the Negro preacher, was found by the police early Sunday morning at the corner of Grove and Jackson Streets. He had a bullet hole in his shoulder, but was not dangerously hurt. Sunday afternoon Deputy McCord was arrested by Detectives. Avant and Watts on a warrant sworn out by a son of the wounded Negro. Later Sunday afternoon King Thomas, himself, was arrested on a warrant sworn out by McCord, charging the Negro with carrying canceled weapons. Thomas, on this charge, will be given a hearing before Justice J. R. Canteloue Friday. He is now not under bond." ```markdown ``` Boys' and Girls' Contest For each job brought and paid for, the same allowance will be made.
