RICHMOND VIRGINIA SATURDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1925 PRICE, FIVE CENTS RHINELANDER LOSES SUIT FOR DIVORCE Jury Upholds Marriage to Girl with Negro Blood MOST SENSATIONAL CASE IN THE HISTORY OF THIS COUNTRY VOLUME XLIII, NO. 5 RHINE Jury U MOST SE Alice Beat WHITE PLAINS, N. Y., December 10—After staying out 12 hours the Rhinelander jury returned a verdict in favor of Mrs. Rhinelander. Just what decision the presidiny Judge wild hand down in the annulment case is not known at this time. It is expected that he will find in favor of the defendant. It is rumored that Mrs. Alice Jones Rhinelander will sue Kip's father for alienating the affections of her husband, and also sue for divorce with alimony. WHITE PLAINS, N. Y.,—Lee Parsons Davis, attorney for Mrs. Alice Rhinelander, finished his summing up this afternoon after speaking for more than seven hours. He closed with an 9 oquent appeal for fairness for Mrs. Rhinelander, begging the jury to guard against race prejudice and emphasizing that there was no possibility of the Rhineanders ever living together again after what had been brought out at the trial. "That is a matter for the future to be settled later," said Mr. Davis. "You have now only to decide whether er this marriage is at present to be declare the result of fraud." Mr. Davis seemed deepy moved as he concluded his long appeal to the jury. His voice was husky from his efforts and his eyes were filled with tears as he leaned over the table and begged the jury to be fair. At the end, former Judge Isaac N. Mills who had been subjected to a good deal of good-natured railery by Mr. Davis toward the close of his address to the jury, reached forward his hand, and Mr. Davis took it, to the amusement of the jury. PUTS BLAME ON RHINELANDER. Mr. Davis spent a good deal of time on the technicalities of the papers in the case, and dealt at length with the significance of time and motive as revealed in the letters of Alice Jones to Rhinelander before their marriage. He asserted that Rhinelander was the aggressor, not Alice; that although he had blamed her for all the things they had done together the letters clearly revealed that he had brought to fruition a carefully laid plan to become intimate with the girl whom heater married. Rhinelander said that because the girl was older she was to blame, but his advantages more than offset the differences in their ages. Mr. Davis contended. "Look at the difference in their opportunities," said Mr. Davis. "This boy is beyond his years; his face shows it. She was a housemaid, although that's no disgrace. On the other hand, we have Rhinelander, the son of a wealthy man who traces his descent in a long line from the Huguenots, surrounded by every luxury, who has traveled much in the world, the son of a gentleman. That is what counteracts the disparity in ages." Some powerful influence was behind the suit to annul the marriage exclaimed Mr. Davis again and again. Two days before he left his wife, he recalled. Rhinelander assigned mortgages worth $50,000 to Leon R. Jacobs, his attorney of record. "The pen that signed Rhinelander's name to the complaint came from the pocket of Mr. Jacobs," he said pointing to the similarity in pen points and ink to prove his concession. It was Jacobs, he said who (Continued on page 5) THE ELKS DISAGREE. Capital City Lodge Protests Wants No Charity Money. The shortage of the Entertainment Committee of the two Elk lodges here, Whitmans and Capital City has been reported as being $3,976. It was a so stated that certain members of the committee had made themselves responsible for a large part of this amount. Learning of the situation the Richmond, Va. News Leader undertook the task of underwritting this amount by launching a drive in its columns for subscriptions to the fund. At this writing about $1,000 has been subcribed, the News Leader advancing $250.00 of the amount. WOULD NOT PUBLISH. Rumors were afloat that this method of raising money for the Elks was not approved by Capital City Lodge, which lodge with the female department had contributed $1,500.00 to the expense fund. They claimed that the proper report through the regular lodge channels had not been made and that $1.00 per member, properly assessed could be lifted and the Order saved this kind of advertisement. In keeping with its belief a committee headed by W. E. Johnson and Attorney Jackson approached the Richmond, Va. News Leader with a communication, which that newspaper declined to publish. THE GRAND EXALTED RULER OPPOSES. The Richmond, Va. TimesDispatch took similar action. Instead of settling the matter, it intensified the feeling in Capital City Lodge circles. It is understood that Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson when hege, expressed positively his approval of the movement and the position taken was that the Order was to dispense charity and not to receive it. When a prominent member of Williams Lodge was proached about the matter, he declared that the agitation was due to two men, members of Capital City Lodge, one of whom had opposed the Grand Lodge of Elks coming to the city. WOULD NOT AMOUNT TO ANYTHING He stated that the movement would not amount to anything as they knew the source from which it came. Another prominent Elk made a similar statement. In the meantime, the raising of this special fund goes merrily on and the indications are that enough money will be realized to wipe out the indebtedness, with the exception of the money loaned by the lodges and the female department Smoke filled the rooms at Rev. W. H Stokes residence on Brook Road Wednesday night, December 2 at about 9 oclock.

C., Nov. 26 Stories of how Negro convicts were "beaten so unmerciful" that they died within a few hours are featuring the trial of M. C. Cranford, Stanley County Convict Superintendent. Eight witnesses testified yesterday of "known cruelties" of Cranford, extending over a period of several years. Some of the witnesses, white convicts, declared that they had seen Cranford whip two Negroes on an afternoon and that both men died that night. Dr. C. M. Lentz testified that he examined the Negroes on the evening of their death and from what he could learn from Cranford and the guards as well as from the ex amination, the men died from "overheat." "Did you ever hear of a Negro in this county dying from becoming overheated?" the judge asked. The physician said he had not.

Dec. 11 — two unidentified women were killed and more than thirty persons injured when a tornado dipped into the city from the northeast early Friday, blowing down about fifty homes and causing a property loss estimated at more than $250,000.

TOURS NORTH CAROLINA. ALBEMARLE, N. C. Dec. 7.—Vast multitudes of the citizens of both races have hung spellbound on the brilliant eloquence of Charles M. Morris, Jr. of Norfolk, Va., celebrated orator, on his triumphal tour of North Carolina. Last Sunday afternoon, three thousand persons jammed the huge auditorium of the Lincoln Theatre in Winston-Salem, while hundreds of others were turned away, to hear the noted spokesman open the campaign to raise a fund to erect a home for delinquent Colored boys in this State. The meeting was said to be one of the greatest in the history of the city. Morris delivered his well known speech on "The Measure of The Man." He was accorded an ovation at the close. Monday night, Thomasville extended the orator an enthusiastic welcome, when he spoke from the platform of the white High School. This was the first time that a Negro had appeared in this auditorium, the event creating a sensation. As many whites as backs were present to hear Morris. Colonel Lambert, the wealthiest man of the city, in congratulating Morris afterward, grabbed his hand and declared "That is the greatest speech to which I have ever listened." Morris has won new friends for his race and for his cause. A capacity crowd awaited him here last night, when he electrified his audience. The affair was a benefit for the Colored Graded School. Morris is scheduled to speak in this State from now until Christmas, following which he is announced to appear in South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Arkansas and other southern points. A great grandson of the Hon. Frederick Douglass, a graduate of the University of Chicago he has enjoyed an enviable career, both as a writer and as a speaker.

Accused of attempted assault, Rushing was arrested and hurried away by the sheriff to Jackson the State capital, where he was placed under the protection of Governor Whitfield. There he confessed the crime and expressed willingness to plead guilty. Arrangements for his trial were secretly made and he was brought back to Forest taken before a special session of court, 'plead guilty, was sentenced to imprisonment, and, before the community realized what was happening, was on his way to the prison farm.

This progressive organization of about two hundred young men wishes to encourage the young people of our race to take advantage of their opportunities for education. This club will award to the graduate each year from the Armstrong High School with the highest record a scholarship of $35, payable at the time the individual matriculates at whatever college he or she desires to attend. In addition the club will award to the Richmond boy or girl who makes the highest record in the first two years at the Virginia University a scholarship of $35 for each of the remaining two years in college. The officials of these schools welcome this interest on the part of the Astoria Beneficial Club. It is hope that other clubs may award such scholarships. Mr. C. B. Gilpin is the president of the Astorias. The scholarship committee consisted of M. A. Norrell, D. C. Deans, C. H. Greene, R. P. Daniel. AGED JIM RITCHIE GETS 21 YEARS FOR SLAYING SISTER.

THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND' VIRGINIA Healthiest Boy and Girl Are Products of Farm THE most healthy boy and girl: members of the Boys' and Girls' Club." That was the distinction won by George Guskaden, St. Paul, Ind., and Alice Burkhardt, Audubon county. In the fourth annual club congratulated in Chicago recently. They represented the healthiest American children out of 600,000 members of the club. George is 5 feet 7 inches tall and weighs 155 pounds. He is 14 and is a freshman in high school. Up at 5 O'clock "I'm a farmer and hope to become a better one." George says. "The farm is what made me healthy, and it is the only thing that will keep me healthy and out of mischief." George attributes his good health to the following schedule of daily routine: Up at 5 o'clock: breakfast of cereal, ham and eggs and milk. Out to mil: the cows, feed the hogs and curry the horses. Then a short walk to school. School until moon when he goes home and eats his biggest meal, which consists of meat, fruits, vegetables and milk. Back to school, then back to work on the farm. After supper he walks two to three miles—then to bed at 8:30. But Alice, although living on a farm, doesn't want to be a farm girl all of her life. She wants to be a school teacher. Here's how she goes about her daily tasks: Up at 7:30, and eats anything. Then to school, where she studies and includes in strenuous physical trail. Eats at a cold lunch, consisting of fruit, cheese and a few graham crackers. Alice Is Junior Her time is her own from then until 2:30, when she goes to bed.

SOME PEOPLE believe in destiny; what will be will be, and their numbers are constantly being augmented by others who come to be believe the same thing. EXPRESSING REGRET over what has been will do no good. Our efforts should be directed to profiting by past blunders and laying plans to avoid making the same in the future. WE WOULD LIKE for all of our subscribers, who have been receiving The Planet for five years or more to send in their names with a word of cheer for the New Year. THE PRICE of newspaper went up 300 per cent, and we increased the subscription price of the paper 25 per cent. We have felt the "pinch of the shoe and don't you forget it" and we are still feeling it. THE NATIONAL Association for the Advancement of Colored People made a "ten strike" in the handling of Dr. Sweet's case in Detroit. It requires much money and limitless energy to deal with these kind of issues. We commenced our public life doing the same thing. SOME WHITE PEOPLE believe in keeping alive the fires of racial hatred and some colored people are disposed to be the same way. Both are wrong. Peace and harmony and the observance of brotherly and sisterly benevolence are the true ways of bringing to pass the final conditions spoken so forcibly in the Scriptures. PRESIDENT CALVIN COOLIDGE'S annual message to Congress is admittedly a most conservative document. If its recommendations are followed, it will result in highly beneficial results both to the laboring classes, the farmers and the business interests of the country. When the country is universally prosperous, all classes, white and colored, feel the beneficial results thereof. THE JURY disagreed in the Dr. Sweet case in Detroit. Just how a charge of first degree murder could be made when the man killed was unknown to the prisoner at the bar and no malice of any kind could be shown, will always be a mystery to any person, who has read the ete mentary principles of criminal law and noted the operation of the statutes in connection therewith. Individual trials will release all of those charged with the offense, except the three principals and before a sentence of conviction has been executed upon them, they will have died from old age.

MADRID, Dec. 1—Heavy rains in Morocco continue to make services of communication difficult and aviation attempt to pass food supply convoy into the Riff from Tangier, due to the terrific storms, which are increasing. Abdel-Krim's brother is going to the Ghomara tribes, where the rebel army is steadily dwindling, excuses offered by deserters being the heavy storms and the impossibility of fighting. Abdel-Krim's own incursions among the Gueznalas not only have tended to uplift morale, but also are due to the impossibility of remaining inactive in the face of the growing shortage of resources of all sorts, which must be got somehow or other. The Riffians are attacking the French at Zoco Sebt Alamas, in the Melilla sector and nearby positions in order to prevent tribesmen in the proximity of the French from surrendering. The Government has decided to build a radio station and lighthouse at Cabo Tres Forcas in Aidir Bay, to avoid further catastrophes due to fog similar to the 'loss of the battle' ship Espana.

About Your Health Things You Should Know by John Joseph Gainca, M.D. A WINTER TALK Of the various forms of PNEUMONIA stages and complications, it is not for me to discourse here. But the means of prevention, and precautions for maintaining health ought to be worth studying. Perhaps the most common cause is exposure of the body to cold, damp atmospheres without sufficient protection by clothing. A germ has been identified and named as a cause, but we know that other micro-organisms may cause inflammation of the lung as well. Pneumonia, like other serious diseases, is more likely to set in, when the vitality is lowered by overwork, worry, or other common cause of debility; hence it behooves us during the harsh winter months, to keep the bodily functions at maximum efficiency. By all means protect the person from violent cold, and avoid sudden changes of temperature, as going out from a warm room, while perspiring, into the wintry blast. We should habitually breathe through the nostrils, so that cold air may be warmed before deep inspiration. Refrain from close contacts with sufferers from the disease. The pernicious practice of dressing little girls in thin garments in severe weather, just for the sake of appearance, and to keep pace with remorseless fashion is both stupid and fraught with peril. Particularly the lower extremities should be kept warm and dry. Acute pneumonia usually begins with a pronounced chill, which is followed by violent fever. As "first aid" I would earnestly recommend turning this chill into a profuse, warm sweat. And do it at once, before the doctor gets there. Do not wait for fever to supervene. In this terrible disease, good nursing cannot be overestimated. Next Week "Diseases of the Kidneys" --- She's 100 Percent, Are You? BUY THESE LITTLE HEALTH SEALS AND SAVE LIVES.

If, when the elbow is bent, the sleeve seems to pull from the shoulder, a section should be added at the top as shown at D. If this does not entirely remedy the fault make a few tiny gathers at the seam as at F. This may make it necessary to add a small section to the bottom as at G. If the sleeve seems to draw from the front of the armhole a section added as at H will help it. I shows the alteration to be made when the sleeve draws from the back of the armhole.

The SKELETON FINGER by Headon Hall © 1925 by NEA Service Inc. BEGIN HERE TODAY SIR DUDLEY GLENISTER, believed to be the murderer of James Glenister to obtain his title and estate, is rendered unconscious in a fire while— KATHLEEN GLENISTER, sister of the dead man, continues to believe him guilty, but— paid his glowing tribute to Willoughby by Melville. "You are speaking as if even no you were determined to turn a blin eye to Dudley Glenister's guilt," said Kathleen with ominous calm. "Sometimes a blind eye is a usef, adjunct on a blind trail," replie Wragge. "If my eye had not be JAMES WRAGGE, Scotland Yard detective, assigned to the murder case, has fastened the gulit upon Stephen Colne, former cabinet minister. Wragge explains. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY "Mr. Colne gave it to me," replied Wragge. "He has throughout my conduct of the inquiry beet extreme anxious to have Sir Dudley con- victed for the murder of Mr. George Glenister." "And he has probably lost his life from loyalty to that belief!" Kath leen exclaimed. Doctor Wheatley came into the room to give an account of his patient. The baronet was in a bad way. Two ribs were broken and he had sustained terrible injuries from the fire. So far there was no reason why he should not eventually recover, but what Wheatley mostly feared the shock to his nervous system. When he came back to consciousness he would probably be out of his mind. The doctor was of the opinion that a specialist in mental disease should be sent for. Kathleen agreed cordially. "You cannot hang a lunatic," she said. "We must have a specialist as soon as we can. Willoughby Melville is the man. He knows us all and has attended him before." "I'll give him on the 'phone," said Norman, rising and leaving the room. He was back again in a minute or two with the announcement that Doctor Melville would be at the Grange by ten o'clock next morning. He had had a busy day and could not come out that night. He said that he could be of little use till Dudley recovered consciousness. "He wanted to be informed if you were here, Mr. Wrangle." Norman added. "He expressed pleasure on my telling him that you were." "There is no man in the profession I would rather meet in consultation," said Doctor Wheatley, with the genuine warmth of a hero-worshiper. Melville is not only a great physician. He is a psychologist of the very first order. Had his lot been cast on a lower plane he would probably have made a fortune as a thought reader or a spook medium." Wragge laughed grimly. "And if," he said, "Doctor Melville had lived on a still lower plane he might have been drawing six pounds a week as a detective inspector at Scotland Yard—and earning every penny of it. If my hat was on my head I would take it off for Doctor Willoughby Melville. He has been the real detective in this case. Without his wise direction I should never have solved it, but should in due course have gone to my grave believing that Sir Dudley Glenister killed his cousin." THE silence in the stately dining room of Beechwood Grange was pregnant with the elements of storm after Inspector Wragge had ```markdown ``` DECEMBER 13 - 19.

"You are speaking as if even now you were determined to turn a blind eye to Dudley Glenister's gull," said Kathleen with ominous calm. "Sometimes a blind eye is a useful adjunct on a blind trell," replied Wragge. "If my eye had not been blind I might have stumbled into greater mistakes than those I was making till Doctor Melville set me right. How he gained the knowledge that enabled him to do so is beyond me. It is his secret and I must leave it to be divulged by him if he so chooses. But, with your permission, Miss Glenister, I should like to give you here and now the true history of your brother's death as it can be proved by a chain of irrefutable evidence." "You are never likely to have a better opportunity," said Kathleen coldly. "Let us have it, anyway." "Just to show you what it all leads to I had better begin at the end." Wrage smiled at the indignant girl "The blind trail led to your wretched kinsman, lying maimed and burned upstairs. The true trall, illuminated 25 WRAGGE PAUSED AND GLANCED QUIZZICALLY AT KATHLEEN. for me by Doctor Melville his genius, led to Mr. Stephen Colne, the brilliant statesman who deliberately killed himself tonight in a balo of mock heroism in order to escape the hangman and the stain on his name." "Truth," proceeded Wragge. "demands a confession on my part. At the outset of my career I committed a breach of the police regulations, and I committed it for money under domestic circumstances which might command your pity but which are too intricate to be narrated here. Mr. Colne at that time held an official position very much lower than that to which he rose later, but it gave him a knowledge of my lapse, and he took advantage of it to make me practically his slave. There are many dirty jobs which a detective officer can do for an ambitious politician, and on several occasions Mr. Colne used me for the confusion of his political opponents, and more than once to dish rivals on his own side of the House. "When that crow dropped the skeleton finger at the shooting lunchcon and opened up the question of where Mr. George Glankster died with its sinister suggestion of murder. Mr. Colne, now an eminent cabinet minister, pulled the wires and set the little figures dancing. He was aware that the county police would require 求 assistance from Scotland Yard, and he privately hinted to the chief of the C. I. D. that I should be assigned to the case. He also telegraphed to me from Colnbrook Towers that I should see him there before I got busy. I went down at once, disguised as a subscription-hunting clergyman, and I learned in the first five minutes of our interview that what he wanted was to get Sir Dudley Glenister convicted of his cousin's murder. "I broke down at the start," continued Wragge, looking round at the rapt faces of his audience wistfully. "I cannot altogether blame myself. From previous experience I was tolerably sure that Mr. Colne had axed of his own to grind, but I thought his motive was political. And my reading of the reports of the affair had swayed my mind toward the probable guilt of Sir Dudley. Mr. Colne's private moral character never entered into my speculations. "At that interview there occurred a little incident which by the light of subsequent discoveries became significant, though at the time I could not understand it. I raised the question whether Mr. Glennister's death might have been due to a crime passione—whether there was a woman at the back of it—but Mr. Colne angrily hade me dismiss any such notion. "I set to work on the case without delay, and the same afternoon, during a call I paid here at the Grange. I went far toward confirming my half-formed suspicion of Sir Dudley. I met Doctor Melville loitering at the lodge gates, and in spite of my clerical disguise he recognized me as a former patient. Of course, he guessed what I was after. He said that a disreputable-looking man was Sir Dudley and that it might be to my advantage to have a look at him. We walked up to the house together. I to apply for admission at the front door and Doctor Melville going round to the library window. "We entered the room at practically the same moment, and sure enough Sir Dudley's visitor came up to the doctor's description. A dissolute, loose-living blackguard of a type we at the Yard are only too familiar with. Melville was rather too demonstrative in the way he fixed him with his eyeglass. Either that, or it is possible that he may have recognized me. Anyhow, he turned and bolted through the French window, and till today was seen no more at the Grange." Wragge paused and glanced quickly at Kathleen. "If you could have seen into my mind at that moment, Miss Glenister," he said, "you would not have been so hard on me next day for not instantly arresting Sir Dudley. For I formed the too obvious opinion that the disreputable stranger had knowledge of your cousin's guilt and was there to blackmail him. In that I was partly right, not but to the full extent. He was the Mr. Simon Trickley who, in revenge for being rebuffed, took as much of his tale as he dared to you and would have probably sold you some half-truths later if he had been otherwise engaged." "Engaged in dying," said Kathleen, who had lost much of her truence. "I was in his house at the time. I told you about it." "Since then he has been engaged in coping to life again, but that is another story," said Wrigley with a snap of his jaws. "I too believed that he was dead, but I was convinced that if evidence was proven against Sir Dudley this man Trickey held the key to it. Stronger than ever grew that belief when I discovered that his wife was a Beechwood girl, the daughter of John Grimes, the Grange gardener. I raked among the wishes of Mr. Trickey's past and that of his sister, Mrs. Coningsby." "Mrs. Coningsby" repeated Kaeleen. "Why, she was the widow of Sir Dudley's former partner on the stock exchange."

After waitin thirteen years and have not suffered from the horrible disease, Gravel, I desire to make a statement to L. J. Hayden. Thirteen years ago leading physicians of my city treated me for Kidney trouble and gravel without the desired benefit. These doctors advised me to be operated on, as that was the only chance for me. I was advised to go and get some of L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicine and try to be force 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 pea. 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. IMPROVEMENT NOTED AT ONCE. Mr. L. J. Hayden, 224 West Broad Street.

I do not suffer with my pains as I used to and my appetite is just fine and I sleep much better every night and feel fine monials from the Secretary of War and Army Officers of high rank and reputation are set forth in no uncertain terms. The following ringing words of Major General Bell, addressed to the famous "Buffaloes," the 367th Regiment, are typical of the high regard and respect of American and European officers for our colored troops. Every private in this regiment and most of the officers were Negroes. The General said:—"This is the best disciplined and best drilled and best spirited regiment that has been under my command at this cantonment. I predicted last fall that Colonel Moss would have the best regiment stationed here and you men have made my prediction come true. I would lead you in battle against any army in the world with every confidence in the outcome". THE NEGRO IN THE NAVY.
