VOLUME XLIII, NO. 19 BOSSY PATTERSON LOSES APPEAL TO U.S. SUPREME COURT CONVIOTED AT PETERSBURG ON MURDER CHARGE AND WAS SENTENCED TO CHAIR. WASHINGTON, March 15—James alias "Bossy", Patterson, convicted at Petersburg, Va. in 1922 on the charge of having murdered Irvin Seid, and sentenced "to be electrocuted, 'ost his appeal today in the Supreme Court the court dismissing t for want of jurisdiction. Patterson con ended that his incidment and trial were Mega because "the names of Negroes were excluded from the lists from which the grand and petit juries were drawn; because he had been denied a change of venue, although public sentiment was running high at Petersburg when he was tried, and because 'the judge left the bench during the trial and went into an adjoining room to use the telephone. THOUGHT THE FINAL DAY HAD COME! FAMILY HIDES UNDER THE BED AFTER BLAST LAID TO ANRGY HUSBAND. (Preston News Service) LILLINGTON, N. C., March 17—"Yas sah, I sho thought Judgment Day had come." exclaimed Eliza Hill, who lives about one mile from here, Tuesday when Deputy Kyle Matthews arrived at the woman's house to conduct a probe into the dynamiting of the Hill home about 1 A M Tuesday. Deputy Matthews stated that the Hill woman, her daughter and two of the Hill children hid themselves under a bed, thinking that the last day had arrived. The Harnett deputy was successful in effecting the arrest of John Hill, son-in-law of Eliza Hill, who is charged with attempting to blow his mother-in-law, his estranged wife and two children into eternity. He is held in the county jail in default of a $3,000 bond. According to stories told Deputy Matthews, John Hill, who parted with his wife a little over a week ago, had become enraged over something and sought revenge by blowing up the home of his mother-in-law, knowing his wife was sleeping under her mother's roof. He is charged with planting a stick of dynamite under the Hill home. The explosion tore one of the rooms off the house and scattered the furnishings in every direction. Parts of the bed and other furnishings in the room were found in the adjacent fields. Deputy Matthews stated that the Hill family had been accustomed to sleep in the room under which the dynamite was placed, but for some reason they had moved into another room last night. This probably saved them from an awful death. The frightened family had hidden themselves under a bed and had remained there for six sold hours until the officer assured them that Judgment Day had not arrived. It took much persuasion on the part of the Deputy "o get them to leave their hiding place. DR. WALKER AT FIFTH STREET Rev. R. H.

POLLFY FRANCES FAILS IN SUPREME COURT Polly Francis, Negro, convicted on a charge of slaying Detective-Sergeant Louis Bertucci will die tomorrow morning in the electric chair, following refusal of the Supreme Court of Appeals yesterday to grant writ of error on an amended petition submitted Tuesday. Only executive element by Governor Byrd can prevent the execution. Stay of execution was granted Francis when attorneys asked opportunity to present newly-discovered evidence in the case. Francis is said to have shot Bertucci, who went alone to investigate the shooting of a Negro woman. The Negro was himself seriously wounded. The gun used by the man who killed Bertucci was never discovered, and an effort was made to fix guilt on another colored man who was for a time held as material witness in the case. Three other applications for writs of error were refused by the court yesterday—Bishmond Times-Dispatch. RICHMOND VIRGINIA. SATURDAY, MARCH 20, 1926 CLARENCE CAMERON WHITE AT 3RD ST. A. M. E.

He Is Ready to Make Peace, He Says, Charging Enemy With Blackening Humanity's Face. The French campaign, in turn, with more civilized methods, is directed toward a program of counter?persuasion. That is why the news is chiefly a record of tribes adhering to and falling away from one side to the other. As a rule the border villages are pro-French until the harvest is gathered in, and then incline-Krimward. In the present campaign it is obviously the object of the Spaniards to keep in line the Dijeba's tribesmen, who abandoned Krim last fall, and of the French to keep the tribes along the Wergha in similar constancy. Even at the height of his success, when he ruled from Melilla to Ceuta and had destroyed his last native rival in the person of the celebrated Raisuli, the Riff Sultan, according to Mr. Sheean, could hardly have been in control of more than 30,000 fighting men. For a defensive war on the Riff home-ground that is more than enough. To subdue them in their own mountains would require years, and one necessary condition would be a battle to shut off Krim from his foreign supplies. Mr. Sheean has examined the question whence Krim has hitherto been drawing the obviously considerable financial means at his disposal. He thinks the stories of subsidy from English forces, Moscow, the French Communists, and the Berlin Government, have little in them. He takes more seriously the cooperation of private German interests. The K.T. is rich in iron and copper, and before the World War the Mannesmann people were active there. He believes they still are. Following in Mr. Sheean's footsteps as he makes his comparatively short club from the desert plains to the heights of the Riff is equivalent to a brief but comprehensive course in imperialism. Evidence emerges both in defense of the white man's burden and against it. One is compelled to make distinctions. The civilization of the Arab populations bordering on the Riff, is, frankly, not such as to elicit many tears over its possible disappearance before the European touch. Very little is left of the original values which swept out of the Arabian homeland and overran the Berber peoples of North Africa in the name of the author. The author is obviously too good-humored to have been influenced in his estimation of the Arab character and the Arab environment by his personal experience with aeward guides and graft-loving sheikhs. The sober reference books confirm his data on the peculiar ways of the free sale of the desert. His picture is one of an appalling degradation, of poverty, filth and disease. It is a different story when the trav- eler escapes from the Arab plains into the Kf. highland. There he finds a population much better favored by environment. The primitive life is there, but with the health of the mountains. The ethnologists have long been familiar with the Berber stock of North Africa upon which the Arab conquest has imposed only the religion of Islam. Mr. Sheean found himself among a tall, sturdy population among not markedly distinguishable from the inhabitants of the northern shores of the Mediterranean—a cleaner, more hard-working, more straightforward stock than their neighbors of the great open desert spaces. The Riffs, if our author has not exaggerated their values, would thus seem to be a pomeon whom it will be vey difficult to subdue and who probably would not be improved by the process. The Riffs would be better off if they were left alone, even if their mountains are rich in iron and copper. The ald-krim professes to be quite ready for some formula by which Europe may get the minerals without carrying away the rest of the country. Nor is there convincinf evidence that Abd-al-Krim's opponents would reject such a formula. The war in the Riff is an example of mudding imperialism. The Spaniards would probably be content to save their FULTON NOTES The Rev. R. H. Walker, National Evangelist, and Orator of New York preached to a large audience last Sunday morn'ning at the Mt.

Day Brings a Close. n Officiates. Rev. Z. D. Lewis, D. D., pastor of the Second Baptist Church, died at his residence, 202 E. Leigh St, at 2:55 P. M., Monday, March 15, 1926, after being a semi-invalid for several years. He was able to go at will, but he suffered from paralysis in his arm and leg. His mind was as bright and as active as ever and recently, he has been preaching with his old-time forlor. This action on his part tended to sap his vital energies and just as he was in the midst of an exciting delivery, Sunday morning, March 7th, he was noticed to be helpless and unable t ocontinue the sermon further. Notice of End Let to a seat, he was removed in an ambulance to his home in a speechless condition. The physicians reported his throat muscles paralyzed, but his sturdy constitution and surprising will power overcame even this and he rallied and was able to speak, eat and move himself. At times, he wanted more food and desired to get up. Trained nurses, reinforced by his wife and children watched at his bedside. But on the following Sunday another stroke came, making the third one and this time his internal organs were affected and this gave notice of the end. Many Express Sympathu On Monday, the end came and his remains, resting upon a funeral couch were viewed by a concourse of friends, who surged into the Lewis home to express sympathy. His bosom friend, Rev. Evans Payne, pastor of the Fourth Baptist Church is confined to his home by sickness and it was not deemed advisable for him to leave his residence to take a part in the funeral obsequies, so Rey, W. T. Johnson, pastor of the First Baptist Church, officited, Friday afternoon at the services at the Second Baptist Church. The deceased leaves a wife, two children, three grandchildren and two brothers to mourn their loss. Funeral Director F. P. Hayes had charge of the remains. The body was conveyed to the Second Baptist Church Friday morning and the public was permitted to see it until the time of the funeral, which took place at I P. M. He had been in charge of this church 37 years. Telegrams of sympathy have been received from friends all over the country and a large delegation came to attend the funeral. --- Attorney C. A.

"Women spend less for clothes than men," says Ethelbert Stewart, commissioner of the United States bureau of labor statistics in Washington. And he proves it with actual figures on family budgets gathered in a survey of 12,096 families. "This does not refer to people with great incomes who are in society or trying to climb in," he says. "Our survey deals with wage earning people, whose incomes range approximately from $900 to $2500 a year. But they are the great majority of people. This class includes laureates and businessmen. And if one is going to generalize about women, these are the ones to consider. Suits by the Dozen "There are thousands of wives, to be sure, who regard their husbands simply as a good thing. They spend money without limit for clothes. They may feel disgraced if they wear the same party dress twice. But the husbands of many of these peacock wives are themselves disciples of what the well dressed man should wear and have suits by the "dozen." Now, what do the cold figures actually show? In all families within the limits of the survey, the average annual expenditure for clothes was husbands, $71.35 wives, $63.55. This amount is about $900 with $900 with husbands spending $38.41 and wives, $30.59, to incomes a little beyond $2500 where husbands spent $69.05 and wives $85.72. Averaging the entire survey, the expenditure for clothing is 16 per cent of the family budget. This also companies expenditures of 38 per cent for food, 13 per cent for rent and 5 per cent for fuel and light. The expense for all these families is $1434 with an average surplus of $78.83. "Whenever the family income falls off and someone has to cut the corners on expenses, the wife feels it first," says Commissioner Stewart. Wife Stays at Home "The first item of cutting is on furniture. They sit on the old chair even if it does wobble, instead of buying a new one. The next reduction is in the wife's clothing. The wife stays at home and doesn't get a new coat. She has got to go out among people and work. He can't hold up his head if his clothes are a hard wear sign. And if he loses his job, he has to YOU DON'T MEAN YA SAW A SLOW EMOTION PICTURE—YA MEAN SLOW MOTION, DON'T TCHA?

BRIGHT SAYING NO. 2,667,381,240 Small Copyright by Harris & Ewing have clothes to make a decent appearance while looking for work perfidence when looking for work. "The next step in expense cuts hits the wife, too. She does not eat so. The husband must have plenty of food in order to do his work. She won't stand for skimming the children. But she will reduce her own diet almost to the starvation point: "I don't think this is boorishness or selfishness on the part of the men. It is simply the way life is organized. But it is unjust to accuse women of being a set of vain clothes racks. There Are Limits "This bureau almostally receives requests for figures on an American standard of living. We can't say what it ought to be. But we can show the applicants what the standard is, as disclosed in this survey. One notable feature of the compilation is the way the percentage of expenditure for food goes down and that of clothing goes up as income increases. There are certain limits on food below which one cannot well drop. Also, the miscellaneous item, which includes pleasures and improvement, goes up rapidly as income increases. "But the proportion of expenditure for the wife's clothes in reference to her husband's stays about the same through all the grades of the survey. She spends less than he, right up the line."

Ybarra, (Copyright, 1986, by The New York Lendon, Mar. 16.—A letter couched in quaint Oriental language, written by Abd-el-Krim, the Riff chieftain, who ig waging war against the French and Spaniards in Morocco, has_ been received by the correspondent of The London Times at Tangier and trans- mitted by him to his newspaper. In translating the letter he has been wise enough, while putting it into cor- reet English, to keep the picturesque Mayor of the original, which is wholly different from the usual conventional atyle adopted by potentates when writ- ing missives for publication im the press. ‘The letter is dated Jan. 27, but did wot reach the London Times corresnon: dent at Tangier until a few days ago, ewing (6 difficulties explained to hins by Abd-el-Krim’s messenger when the latter finally succeeded in placing it in the Englishman's hands after stealing through the Spanish lines outside Tan- xier. Text of Letter The letter runs as follows “To the Editor of The Times: “Pence. “We rejoice to communicate to you true information concerning the situ- ation of our country, so that you ean publish it in your progressive news- paper in order that the world may realize what exactly is the position of affairs. “This is in the interests of truth, abroad by the enemies of humanity and those hostile to peace, the lovers of war. “We are relieved of responsibility and the whole world knows that we 878 prepared to make peace and te ome to an understanding with our ‘opponents. We only seek justice and search for tranquility and that is all. “Tt ig nothing to us if our enemies for political purpos¢s make false as- aertiona. ‘Mt has always been so since Veg PRR he ee eee we began to defend our usurped and we are Always striving to oe peace. | We have exerted every effort _ in conimunicating to obtain peace. ‘We have exerted every effort i communicating with the French and Bree anSoritien over and over seain; and every time they meet us in their pride and in their egotism {or are, interpreting our purpose trary to their real intention; they ‘say we are the weaker side and have ne power to carry on the war or to resist for long; and so they charge Us at times with weakness and at othes times with having suffered defeat, and this is whenever we make any com- munication to them or show any in- clination for peace. Resent Betng Called Barbarians “This has astonished us. And when we continue to fight and to kill,aban- doning our inclination to follow the Path of peace — thereby seeking our rights justly and impartially—they ac- cuse us of being barbarians. } “And when we appeal to them for our rights and just treatment they explain it as a confession of weak- ness and insufficiency. This shows a wrong unddystanding and is surpris- ing. » When we are in a dilemma and un. certain what road to take, we turn | and carry out the Arab saying, ‘The sword is more truthful than writings.’ “Our intentions are sincere. We never write to our opponents nor send them any communication, except what we conscientiously and truthfully feel. We are sincere in all this. ¥ {We know nothing of politics or in- trigues or roguery, but our opponents are masters of those things. ‘They do not understand any ways but those of the fox, and this brings about mis- understandings on every occasion. “We trust that you will explain to the world on our behalfthat we de- mand nothing but out rights and that we defend nothing beyond what we consider our duty to defend. The sole purpose of all our actions is to arrive at peace. “We desire to educate our people and to reform our country. We are always ready to make peace and come to terms as soon as we can perceive that our enemies recognize justice and admit our legitimate rights, without which we cannot exist. “The Rift has characteristics of its own and an ability to exist which en- title it to be governed for and by its own people and to live as other na- tions do in liberty and independence. “The Riff trusts that when it ob-_ tains those rights, and its just de- mands are accepted, it will’ live in peace and tranquility with all its with all its neighbors and open its door to foreigners in a fitting way | to bring about happiness. j “These are our hopes and our de- sires. Justice will never want sup-| porters in any period or in any coun-{ try go long as such people as you live. Denies Soviet or Germany Aids Him| “Concerning what our enemies charge us with, that we are in rela- tions with the Soviet and Germany and that foreigners are taking a hand in our country, all that is imaginary and is the fruit of enemy rumors. “— “Thus they find means to upset| those who defend the rights of weak | nations, as is very evident. We have | proved ‘to the wofld more than once; that there is no truth in those rumors | an we give you proofs on this occa- sion. ) "I am sure that there are others who aid humanity .as you do and we trust that the fruit of your help in thus making known our ideas and our desires will be the obtaining of a no- ‘ile peace by which the shedding of blood, and all these terrible events of whieh. the world is witness, will be, removed. They have turned the face of hu-| manity black and made the sons of! men suifer every kind of torment “Finally, we desire to assure you that although the enemy occupies » portion of our country and may, we Suppose, advance and occupy other ‘parts, all this does not detract fr | our faith, for we remain steadfast to | our principles, even if only one mo | ‘taintop may remain to us to occupy or to inhabit, We shall cause ire loss to our enemies. “although the enemy will possess a further part of our country it will n- trouble us, because we have won more than that in our victories in various battles; nor do we perceive any virtue in it, nor will it affect our determina- tion, because all the enemy has done is to create new war fronts on which he is daily suffering great loss. “We still continue prepared to de- fend our rights to the very end and to die for our principles. We shall be patient, as we have been for many years, until the day will come in which right will conquér wrong. e < "This is what we communicate to you, wishing you to publish it with anticipation of our thanks.

The world knew, in ‘general way, that the Rift moun tameers had recently inflicted a severe defeat on the Spanteh forces whose nominal “protechorate’” ex tended over the Riff country. * But Spain had been in heavy ‘rouble among the mountains for several years, had regularly been “rectifying” her iines, and had just as regularly announced her resolve to bring the campaign to a victor- fous end. Ano‘her retirement toward the coast was, apparently, only an. other of those things. It took some Hme ‘for the world to realize that ‘what happened to-the Spanish army at Annual i the Spring of 1924 was thé greatest disaster ever exper- Jenced by a Buropean army at the hands of a “backward” peop'e since the da'ians were annihilated by the Abyssinfan army, thirty years ago. | A Spanish army of 20,000 men under General Berenguer wag. sur- roungey and destroyed by 6,000 Riff frregutars under the command of Abdo" Kr m’s brother, che military genius of ‘he Berber campaign, Spain's proteciorate along the Med- ferrancan was suddenly, as 1s ap- peated, reduced\to her {wo ancient ouipos's at ebay end of the zone Ceuta in the east ‘and Melita in the wes \.

You take just one teaspoonful at bed time and hold it in your throat for 15 or 20 seconds before aivallowing it. ‘The prescription has a double action. It not only soothes and heals soreness and irritation, but it quickly removes the phlegm and con- gestion which are the real cause of night coughing.

Richmond, Va. July 8, 1915. A perfect cure has been effected by L. J. Hayden's Pure Herb Medicines. After waiting thirteen years and have not suffered from the horrible disease, Gravel, I desire to make a statement to L. J. Hayden. Thirteen years ago we've 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. Hardwick's Herb Medicine and try to be being 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 jar. Since that time I have not suffered with the gravel. I might 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. Richmond, Va. I received your treatment O. K. and I have started to taking it already for a few days, and it has already begun to improve my affection so I am sending to you for one more bottle of medicine for the blood. I have spoken to many of my friends and they say they are going to send for a treatment. I think it fits with my painas I used to with my pains as I used to with 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 Bullafalo, 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 cannonment. 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 More than fifty pages of the Book devoted to the Achievements of the Negro in the American Navy—Guarding in the Trans-Atlantic Route of France—Battling the Submarine Peril—The Best Sailors in any Navy in the World—Making a Navy in Three Months from Negro Stevedores and Laborers—Wonderful Accomplishments of Our Negro Yewomen and Yeowomen. As we have fought for the rights of mankind and for the future peace and security of the world, the people want to be correctly and fully informed of the facts concerning OUR Heroes—and this is THE Book they are looking for. THE ONLY HISTORY THAT WILL FULLY SATISFY THE AMERICAN COLORED PEOPLE This Book appeals to the Colored People. They are eager to buy it. Why—Because it is the only War Book published that thrillingly, graphically, yet faithfully describes the wonderful part that the Colored Soldier has taken in the World War and is absolutely fair to the Negro. It relates to the world how 300,000 Negroes crossed the North Atlantic, braving the sors of the Submarine Peril, to battle for Democracy. The loyalty and patriotism that characterized the black man's nature his sublime sacrifice, his indisputable bravery, the wisdom of Negro Officers in command of their own troops.
