An Able Pulpit Divine Succumbs After Brief Illness Remains to be Interred in Virginia. The Close of a Brilliant Career VOLUME XLII, NO. 18 DR. REED PHILA An Able P Succum Brief Remains to Virginia--The Brilliant Rev. T. J. King, D.

Dr. King left last Tuesday night to attend the funeral at Philadelphia. His remains will be brought to Lynchburg, Va. for interment. Rev. Reed was one of the ablest young divines in th's country. Appropriate resolutions were offered by J. H. Chiles Sunday morning last at the Fifth Street Baptist Church and the pastor authorized to carry appropriate tokens of respect to the mourning family.

R. O. Johnson, pastor; Geo. Savage, church clerk. A committee from the Mt. Moriah Baptist Church, which worships in the auditorium of the Armstrong High School building, visited Rev. R. V. Peyton, D. D., pastor of the St. Paul Baptist Church, at Montclair New Jersey recently concerning the call to the pastorate here. No definite information has been given as to the result of the visit, but it is inferred that both the church and the committee are as much "in the air" as to Rev. Dr. Peyton's intentions as before. Dr. Peyton seems to be waiting for divine guidance, in fact, he says so and whatever the Lord directs him to do, that thing he will do. The outlook is that he will not come to Richmond as a pastor for some time to come, if he should come at all and many of his friends here are much upset and worried over the outlook. He is expected to occupy the pulpit at the Mt. Moriah Baptist Church, Sunday, 29th inst. REVIVAL AT GOODWILL BAPTIST CHURCH IN FULL SWING. Rev. W. B.

RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, MARCH 14, 1925. BIRDS THAT SING IN THE SPRING TRA-LA-LA By SATTERFIELD BASE BALL FANS SATTERFIELD AUTOCASTER The Union-Hartshorn Campaign Sunday. It is true today as it was true in ancient days that all greatness in individuals, races and nations is all human achievements and enterprises rooted in religion. Subtract from es the religious elements and nothing will be left but collapsing schemes and crumbling ambitions. America's rapid rise to power and place in the galaxy of the nations, can be traced to those religious motives upon which rest the foundation of this great republic. Her first settlers were men who were seeking religious liberty; her first schools were school's of religion; her first statesmen were men who had faith in God and her ideals of democracy are based upon the teachings of Jesus Christ. The phenomenal advancement of the American Negro since his emancipation is due to a religious influence engendered by white men and women who had faith in God no less than to the profound religious life of the Negro. The first leaders of the race were men of religious turn of mind. His first property consisted of churches and schools, which he built by the sweat of his brow. His first teachers and preachers were men and women who served in the name of the Lord. The promising business life of the race today has its roots in religious strivings. The insurance companies, the fraternal orders, the mutual benefit and social clubs have all grown out of the church. The Negro church has been the clearing house for the Negro's ambitions for three score years. The professional men and women of the race are products of the church. For sixty years Virginia Union University and Hartshorn Memorial College have been ministering to the religious life of Richmond and Virginia in particular and the country in general. Directly or indirectly every one of the 58,000 Negroes in Richmond has been touched and helped by these schools. Three-fourths of Richmond's more than 75 colored churches are being served by pastors trained at Union. A $50,000 campaign for improvements begins here Sunday and all are urged to donate freely. Miss Alice R. Russell, Noted Soprano Singer Here Corey, Lyceum of V. U. U. presented Miss Alice B. Russell, dramatic soprano, of Montclair, N. W., in a musicale at s/xh Mt.

A GRUESOME TRAGEDY IN LYNCHBURG Ministerial Student in a Deadly Battle Two Dead...Woman in the Case Uninjured (Preston News Service) NEW ORLEANS, LA. Mar. 12. — The Supreme Court of Louisiana put its stamp of approval on the segregation ordinance passed by the city council some weeks ago, which prohibits Negroes from establishing residences in white residential neighborhoods and whites from residing in Negro neighborhoods. The case was the outgrowth of a suit for a restraining injunction by a white man residing in one side of a duplex house to prevent the owner from renting the other side to Negroes. Indications are that the case will be taken to the United States Supreme Court, as Negroes are reported to be enthusiastically subscribing to a $40,000 fund necessary to take the case to the higher court. It is said that the case has now attracted nationwide attention and many cities such as Louisville, Richmond, Washington. Baltimore and others are watching the Louisiana case with interest. RACE WOMAN BURGLAR TO SERVE FIVE YEARS IN PEN. (Preston News Service) LITTLE ROCK, ARK, Mar. 13. Mrs. Thelma Hampton, alleged leader of a gang of burglars, was convicted last Wednesday on three charges of burglary and grand larceny by a jury and Judge Wade sentenced the woman to five years in the penitentiary. The woman was charged with having entered several homes and alleged to have taken dresses, silverware and jewelry. George Evans, alleged member of the Hampton woman's gang, was convicted of similar charges and sentenced to serve one year on the road gang. William Davis and Mrs. Blanche Walker implicated in the thefts and charged with receiving stolen goods will be tried later. --- AID ASKED FOR NEGRO AND INDIAN MISSIONS. (Weston News Service) WASHINGTON, D. C., March 13—Negro and Indian missions of the Catholic Church are the subject of a special appeal signed by Cardinal Dougherty of Philadelphia, Cardinal Hayes of New York and Archbishop Curley of Baltimore, and sent to all Catholic Churches of the country. The appeal takes cognizance of the fact that of 10,000,000 Negro Americans' few are Catholics and states that the condition is not due to indifference on part of the Negro. It is stated that wherever Catholics have opened schools in the South for Negroes they are taxed to capacity and hundreds are turned away for lack of means. —Dr. M. E.

PRICE, FIVE CENTS OME EDY IN ICHBURG Student in y Battle Woman in the minjured LYNCHBURG, VA., March 9. Charles Scott, a railroad employee, and Edward Jefferson, a ministerial student at the Virginia Theological Seminary and College, are dead as the result of a fight here this morning about 1 o'clock in the home of Letitia Armistead. Apparently the men fought, one with a flat iron and the other with a razor, for Scott had his head badly mangled with a blunt instrument, while Jefferson's head was almost severed with one slash of what appears to have been a razor. The woman says Scott, a married man, threatened to kill her if she received Jefferson's attentions, and that Jefferson came to her home last night to protect her. This morning, she said, Scott broke into her house and then into the room occupied by Jefferson, after which the fight start ed. The woman said she fled when the fight opened and did not return until the police arrived. Scott died at 5 o'clock. R. C. SCOTT GETS NEW COMBINATION COACH AMBULANCE Funeral Director Robert C.

A bit of music and dancing, and she did it well, with never a thought that she would be called upon to act out the part in real life. Church authorities, learning of the song, sent representatives to hear it. The church shocked at what they considered a mockery of religious sentiment, and they warned the singer that she must cease singing it. Miss Meller failed to comply with their request. She received a warning that the pope, hearing of her song, was displeased to have the church portrayed on the vaudeville stage. It was then Raquel Meller canceled her contracts and hurried to Rome to promise that she would never again sing a sacrilegious song.

THE NEW YORK TIMES in its issue of March 10th comments upon the remarks of Mr. Julius Rosenwald made in its issue of the day before. Both communications are highly commendary of the Negroes, who have found a residence in the northern clue. The New York Times says: "The Negro has been moving North under a double impulse. He has been pushed by discontent with the treatment he receives in the South. He has been pulled by the demand for labor in the North. Till 1915 the former was the more powerful cause. Negro migration was something like a flight. Since the war it has been purposeful. The demand for Negro labor in the North kept up till 1920, slackened with the depression of that year and rose to flood again in 1922. A new and permanent factor is our new immigration policy. The Negro is being called upon to take the place that would have been filled by the excluded Europeans. Thus arises a national problem in a real sense. It concerns the cities of the North which must reckon with great Negro colonies in their midst. It concerns or organized labor, which must face the problem of unionizing the Negro worker. It concerns the political parties. A swelling Negro population in doubtful Northern States has already given Democratic leaders food for thought". It concludes as follows: "The biggest problem is, after all, for the South. People there have already been stirred by the depletion of their labor supply and are recognizing that, a more humane policy to the Negro is demanded not only by justice, but by practical considerations. Yet it is doubtful if a more negative policy will avail to check Negro migration. The South must make up its mind to compete actively with the North in making the old home more attractive for the colored people. Of four Southern States which have registered the largest increase in Negro population, three are those which have been making rapid industrial progress—North Carolina Texas and Florida. Apparently it is the economic pull that counts most. And for the South it ought to be not merely a question of maintaining the status quo. If Negro labor is largely to replace immigrant white labor, the South, with its great supply of colored labor, ought logically to be JOURNIMEN edit most by the change. But it will not so benefit if it refuses to compete with the North by offering the Negro the chances for a better livelihood, more civilized housing and better schooling for his children, as well as the equal protection of the law. The above is a statement of the case 'in a nut-shell'. No further remarks could even tend to change this statement of facts or to upset the logical conclusion. A PLEA FOR FISK UNIVERSITY WE HAVE RECEIVED a copy of a pamphlet giving letters and telegrams from parents of Fisk students, alumni, students and friends at large together with certain statements relative to the recent disturbances at Fisk University, Nashville. Teen. It is a strong presentation of the case from President F. A. MacKenzie's viewpoint, although it does not deal specifically with the fundamental questions at issue. It conveys the information that practically all of the students have returned to their classes. The summary is as follows: "Of the more than 50 students from Nashville attending the Fisk elementary school, none has been abused a single day. Of the 24 high school students, three are out. Of the 41 college students 8 have thus far (February 23) failed to return." It is to be hoped that the Trustees will arrange for the visit of a committee of leading colored citizens from various parts of the country to visit the institution and secure a detailed statement of the grievances or alleged grievances that led to the 'rebellion'. No person who has formed or expressed an opinion one way or the other should be selected and a report coming from this source would do most to counteract the effect of the damaging information that has been transmitted from one section of this country to the other amongst our people. THE INTER-RACIAL movement is doing a world of good and should be encouraged and promoted. A MISSISSIPPI M. E. CONGREGATION VOTES AGAINST UNIFICATION (Preston News Service) CRYSTAL SPRINGS, MISS., Mar. 13.—At the M. E. Church here Sunday morning regular services were suspended in order that the congregation might vote on the question of unification which has been broadly discussed from the pulpit and in the press for good many weeks. One of the largest congregations that has been in attendance at the church for some time was present to express themselves on this question. One hundred and fifty-four ballots were cast on the question of which 127 members were present and 27 voted by proxy. When the vote was counted it showed that every single vote cast, proxies and other votes, were against unification, with not a single vote in favor of it. The M. E. Church split into two factions over the slavery question and an effort is now being made to unite the North and South Connections. THE RICHMOND PLANET: RICHMOND, VIRGINIA GET RID of PILES FOREVER.

COLORFUL NEWS "MOVIES" By the will of the people, the American Government passes another four-year milepost in its quest for a more perfect union. New hands take hold of the same structure chiseled out by George Washington and his fellow seekers of independence, cemented together, though by the blood of fellow citizens, under Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses Grant; and placed upon the high pedestal of world appreciation by such eminent presidential successors as Garfield, McKinley, Roosevelt, Taft and Harding. Of his own right and in his own worth, President Cooïidge now joins the chain of directors which, in peace and in war, has bound together the American principles of Liberty and Union. We need not pause to repledge our loyalty and our lives. Our past history bespeaks, far more eloquently than do our words of today, our ideal to serve our country. We believe in Liberty and Union, and we know that without those virtues neither a Government nor its subjects can hope to enjoy the fulness of such a freedom as the world has a right to expect of so brave and so free a land as America. In the fashioning of the new American progress, which begins with the Inauguration of our President, we ask for no special division or distribution of the blessings of our Government, based upon any theoretical separation of us from the citizenry of our country. We seek merely a just portion of whatever benefits the Government and its directorate may issue to all its citizens. We desire nothing because of any special estimate which may be placed upon us. But, when, as is often the case, certain individuals and certain groups do, because of color, single us out from the American people, and set aside for us certain inequities, certain customs, and certain practices, for which there is found no authority either in the U. S. Constitution or in the traditions of independence which form the bulwark and the foundation of the United States of America—then, and in those cases, we, as American citizens, as free and as brave as any that may be found, do ask that the forces and the individuals which guide and direct the destinies of this great country, invoke all the principles and all the law that may be necessary in our behalf, in order to show the world, without fear or denial, the truth that Liberty and Union in America, are indeed as Daniel Webster said, one and inseparable, now and forever.

WARNING TO RACE PEOPLE Judge's A movement to place fifty thousand thrifty Japanese farmers in the Southland is reported as heading up in Crittenden and Mississippi counties, State of Arkansas.

(Prepton News Service) KNOXVILLE, TENN., Mar. 13.—Great interest is being shown by the students of Knoxville College in the price for the best essay on Race Relations recently established by Rev. J. M. McQuillin, D.D., of Pittsburg Penna. The general subject is "The Responsibilities of Each Race for Better Race Relations". The contest is open to all the members of the junior and senior classes, and the majority of the members of both classes have signified their intention to compete for the prizes. Dr. McQuillin intimated that the winning essay would be published in a periodical. This effort to stimulate deeper interest in and study of race relations is highly commendable, declared a member of the college faculty and it is hoped that many other such prizes will be established in this and other institutions throughout the country. The students of both races should be encouraged to give this question serious and conscientious study. APPORTIONMENT OF REPRESENTATIVES.

Ou safe in the hands of Bay The inequitable apportionment of representatives in Congress from the Southern States, which, by various instrumentalities of evasion practically disfranchise the bulk of their Negro population, is probably the most vital question which confronts the Negroes of America in this day when races and peoples are going to move forward, come what may. Last week, in Washington, the National Race Congress of America devoted four days and four nights to consideration of the absorbing topic, "The Ballot and Representation". In prayer, song and oration, Race Congress delegates vividly pictured the ballot inequities existing in the "Grandfather" States which ignore the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution and weep over the Eighteenth. Just a few days previous, Senator Bruce, of Maryland, referring to the days of slavery, had commented upon the fact that northern and western people had ignored the statute and common law which had guaranteed the full fee simple ownership of slaveholders in their Negro slaves, exhibiting, at least faint remorse over a shunting aside of the precepts of our Constitution. But, listen world, a wise man from the East has made his appearance. Mr. Gillette, of Massachusetts, retiring speaker of the House of Representatives, on February 28, 1925, introduced H. R. Bill No. 12449, providing for the apportionment of representatives in Congress under a very unique plan, which, in its final consummation should be beneficial to the BRETHREN. The significant paragraph of Mr. Gillette's bill provides that "Whenever it appears that under any apportionment a State is entitled to a number of representatives less than the number to which it was previously entitled, the whole number of representatives to which such State is entitled shall be elected at large until such State is redistricted in the manner provided by the law thereof, and in accordance with the rules enumerated in Section 4 of this Act". BROTHERS, and SISTERS, too, will do well to procure copies of H. R. No. 12449, study it carefully, and write to their congressmen, insisting upon their support of Mr. Gillette's measure. Things emanating from Massachusetts usually include benefits for our group. Summer, Tinkham, Gillette, Butler, and, bless me, Mr. Coolidge, too, all came from Massachusetts.

YOUNG WOOD'S EXAMPLE. IS IT SOCIALISM? THE BABY CROP. A CHANCE FOR CONGRESS. YOUNG WOOD'S EXAMPLE. IS IT SOCIALISM? THE BABY CROP. North Carolina wants a law that would stop flirting. Men ogling girls or women would be fined or locked up. If North Carolina, where men are so chivalrous, needs that law, other States need one more severe. But is any such law really necessary? Only a few years ago, ten or fifteen thousand, the man that met a lady on the street grabbed her by the hair and dragged her to his cave by force. You can see how much men have improved. There is one comfort. If the young ladies walk demurely, with their eyes on their little pink shoes, they won't notice unwelcome attention. President Coolidge, it's said, means to veto the increased salaries for Congressman. The total amounts to $1,376,000 a year. The salaries are not high. Congressmen cannot live decently at Washington and at home on today's wages. Congress could earn the increase in five minutes by creating a great irrigation and power plant at Boulder Canyon on the Colorado River. That project to irrigate two million acres of desert land, supply continuously 400,000 horsepower and protect the Imperial Valley from floods would pay the Congressmen's every year and leave enough over to pay for the dam.

Young Wood says, "I have had my dance, now I must pay the fiddler." Don't gamble, it doesn't pay. Senator McKellar, Democrat from Tennessee, says of the bill that would turn Muscle Shoals over to the power trust. "The passage of the Underwood measure would be the greatest calamity that has happened to the South since the Civil War." Many Senators know that it is so, but if one of the biggest monopolies wants something you can hardly expect the United States Senate to refuse it. You can, however, expect President Coolidge to veto it. He has, from Henry Ford, exact information on the Muscle Shoals affair. The President is in favor of stopping all national inheritance taxes. He calls them "socialism," although it is not clear why taxing a fortune of a hundred millions that a rich man leaves behind him is any more socialistic than to tax a small cottage in which a poor man is raising his family. However, it certainly seems better to tax a rich man while he is alive than to tax his children. Leaving big fortunes to children may be foolish, but the desire to do so makes men work, when they would otherwise stop working. And what the country wants is the most work from the ablest men. One important proof of booming prosperity. In New York, our biggest city, the rush to get married before Lent came exceeded all records. Not fewer than fifty couples stood in line, all day, waiting for licenses. This guarantees most important of all OUR CROPS, the crop of native born babies on which the country and the future depend. The only real wealth is human intelligence. The mothers create it. It is suggested that part of the nonsense connected with the new arms conference will be talk about reducing or forbidding the use of aircraft in war. You might as well talk about eliminating railroad trains or gunpowder from war. The first thing for the United States to do is to build up an aircraft force superior, that of any nation on earth.

DHL RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA Poem by Uncle John If somebody should ask, in this turbulent time, the reason we're first on the roster of crime — some goggle-eyed donkey will tell ye the cause is the terrible lack of enforcible laws! So, forty-eight states, with the law-makin' crase, make draft on the tollers for all the can raise — to pay for a Code that no jurist can span—a blood suckin' dealer of man! This "Land of the Free" by forefathers ordained, has ham-strung, pan-handled, hog-haltered and chained, till the servile taxpayer, befuddled and coarse, is the fruit of a mess that no power can enforce. While the gunman and thug, in mutual guafw, are applaudin' the force called "The reign of the Law." If we'd curb the Banditt that pillage our domes, we must have something 'tight for our babes and homes! They'd bankrupt the 'far pink speed schools, while they hint that the people are tight-wads an'ools.

At the point of a gun the car has five gallons from a passing car. Later Charlie has seen, foreman a reach along some fence so she can reach cook. Then they discover that Mr. Underwood left the kitchen, which they find in cold up. Sheriff Bob Nells, who is the dancer, is uninterested search. He said up Underwood. Young teacher Underwood finds the backs of his hider. He walks on the hinder with a wheel missing, and the hinder is forced to explain the answer to his employer **WON GO ON WITH THE STORY** "What gets me," he said. "is why nobody brought the dangin't thing all what's the idea? And if they get it here on three knees? There isn't anything reasonable about any part of it. There isn't anything you can get a good cart on for figurin. Odd times I've seen things that surprised me. But his has got me laid sort of flat out." Underwood made a restless gesture of impettence. "I'm sorry the sheriff got away so early," he said. "He might be able to make some sense out of it. It seems that nobody around my ranch knows anything at all about anything." "I reckon we all look stupid," con- tessed Charley "I ain't denyin' you've got grounds for thinkin' so, I was the boss, and anything like it happened around my place I'd nat naturally take a few folks apart until I got the answer That's the way I feel." Underwood finished a calculating study of his foreman then waved an in dismissal "We'll talk about this again in the morning," he said. "I wouldn't like to think there has been anything corse than stupidity" "I wouldn't want to think so my tell" said Charley "Good night." He went out with the lantern, sued through the dining room and entry and entered the empty kitch- where he sat down and began on a pipe. Well, I've made a high-grade ass of myself," he mused. "I got lated that way and there wasn't wrong else to do. How in blazes as I goin' to tell him that I picked the first stick-up gang that came and turned 'em into a cook and washer, without askin' for refer- ence? And me believin' that Provin- ce sent 'em" He tipped the chair against the and hooked his heels in the lled the only way that was be- cause the occasion. If I'd lied ox- and brazen it wouldn't have good overnight. So I lied calm oofish. I wasn't so sure that I whether I was always brought believin' that a lie well stuck to be good as the truth.

He could not afford to lose a good cook and dish-washer. That would make more trouble with the boss than holding him up on the road. And if he let them ride away as they had come, it signified a confession that implicated him as deeply as any of the principals. The problem of keeping them on the job was really simplified. Charley had a certain allowance of conscience, he was tolerant and good-hearted, but he was also the one that the constitution of a pair of honeymooners was a mean trick, even in the face of dire necessity. But now he knew something, or believed he did, and it amounted to a justification. It removed scruples, or at any rate made them slumbrous. He not only knew it, but he felt that he could profitably use it. It was neither blackmail nor duress, but merely persuasion. He could show them what the consequences of an attempted betrayay might be. For some reason that probably went back to instinct, he had moved his hand to the window and wood and his family with any deep feeling of shock. It had no jealousy. "WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?" ly disturbed his moral sense. Now, with Henry Williams in the picture, he regarded the affair even more lightly. Besides, there was Sally to be considered. She was a mighty fine girl, he had decided almost from the start he looked upon her as of his own people. If she had married a bandit, it was unfortunate, of course. But had she? He had his doubts about Henry. He could not figure him acculturally, or even approximately, but it was hardest of all to figure him as a bandit, according to the evidence. There was one more consideration in the back of his head—the sheriff. There was nothing personal about it, in the sense of a specific grievance. He could not have explained it any better than the versifier, who did not tell him well, but did not live Be Well, and he did not see any reason for throwing business in his way, particularly when it did not impress him as being of a really serious character. He took the earliest opportunity to interview the Wreck and Sally Morgan, which happened to be during the washing of the breakfast dishes. "The three-wheeled wonder," said Charley, "has become known to the family." The Wreck's towel paused in the middle of a polishing movement. "No Henry; not through me," added Charley. "It was discovered as a result of unmanly curiosity on the part of the boss' son. He hammered the padlock off the door." "Walt! inquired the Wreck "The news havin' been communicated to the old man, and both havin' examined the hidden party, there is a sort of notion—not positive, but leanin' in that direction—that this particular fliver was met before. Sally and the Wreck both looked at Charley and waited. "The discovery bein' put up to me, continued Charley, I violated a considerable part, and principled by all knowledge. The reason, ain't important. The main thing is I come out of this conversation lookin' like one of two things—either a durned fool or a participle criminis, which means one of the same gang that bein' the proper learned way of puttin' it. According to this conversation, I didn't know any more about that fliver than if she have dropped in' the sky. The pair Sally was pink in the cheeks and was biting at her under lip, a sure sign of doubt. The Wreck was inscrutable. "Were gettin' to the point," said Charley. "The point is, I reckon I'm the only person on the ranch who can tell the sheriff of this free and independent county just where it might pay him to head in." "Well?" "You have a disappointin't way of cheatin' that word, Henry. I reckon we've got to cheat to proceed with the discussion. Are we goin' to show all hands on the call, or are we goin' to proceed hypothetical?" The Wreck looked at Sally, who was wrinkling her forhead into furrows. She seemed willing to leave the decision to him. "There ain't any objection to givein' the gang five minutes for consultation," said Charley. "Nothing to consult about," said the Wreck. "Meanin?" "Moving we don't get you." "Him. It looks like the case was hypothetical." not like beating around bushes. "Can't we talk right out in meeting?" she asked, suddenly "Thank you, ma'am," said Charley "Walt," said the Wreck. He tossed his dish towel on the drain board and edged himself into a seat on the table, from which his legs dangled loosely. "What are you going to do about it?" he demanded. "I figure that I'm goin' to hang on to the cook and dish-washer that was handed to me by Providence." "I figure coxin' is a better word." "Are you getting the idea you can keep us here as long as you damned please?" The Wreck was beginning to display nervous symptoms, and Sally gave him an anxious look. "In a way, it's out of my hands." was to say to you. 'Honeymooners, climb right into filver and help yourself.' That don't necessarily get you anything at all. The first person that climbs into that three-legged critter and tries to drive off in it is goin' to set the boss prank in pursuit. You don't seem to get the idea. She's bad medicine, that filver. It ain't safe to acknowledge even a passin' acquaintance. She'sainted Mind you, Henry. I ain't accusein' her of anything I'm merely reclin' the suspicions of others." The Wreck was making an effort to be judicial. "Suppose," he said, "that I was to tell your boss how you happened to get a cook and kitchen helper?" "That could be sinkin' us all in the same ship," admitted Charley. But you ain't gain' to tell him, on account of Mis' Williams who, here, did not like to acknowledge it. The Wreck could see that, but he did not like to acknowledge it. "Every idiot on the place," he said, "seems to be chasing around with the idea that somebody committed crime. Suppose it happened there was no crime at all?"

These doctors advised me to be operated on, as that was the only chance for me. I was then treated by Dr. Hayden's Herb Medicine, and try to be operated on. I did so, and in twenty four hours after using his medicines I passed at least a half dozen gravel, some as big as a large pee. Since that time I have not suffered with the gravel. I highly recommend L. J. Hayden's medicine to all suffering humanity. I am. J. A. PAGE. 4 Auburn Ave. Richmond Va FACTS AND TRUTH IN EVERY STATEMENT. Bad Digestion many years.

Hayden's wonderful Herb Medicine, after suffering a long time with the dreadful disease. I was unable to move hand or foot, and after I had taken three doses of the medicine I was able to get out of my bed and walk across the floor, and only two bottles of the medicine made me a perfectly well man to every respect. I cannot give Mr. L. J. Hayden too much praise for what he has done for me. I have seen many other suffering ones to him and they have also got cured. My squatter was a great sufferer of Rheumatism and Indigestion by L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicines at No. 220 W Broad Street, Richmond, Va. I command Mr. L. J. Hayden as one of the greatest healers of the sick in earth. Respectfully, J. D. TAYLOR 2419 E. Grace St. Richmond, Va.
