Leigh Street sideswiped a tree at a point on Grove Avenue, killing Lieutenant Robinson who roomed at 102 E. Leigh Street and badly injured John Heywood, who resides at 3 W. Leigh Street. A statement made by Sam Brown last Tuesday afternoon is as follows: EARLY IN THE MORNING. 'I left my home early Sunday morning, shortly before 2 o'clock to carry Josephine Jones and her sister to their home on Grove Avenue, near the Soldiers' Home in the 2800 block. In the car were also Mrs. Hallie Brown, my wife. Douglas Alexander John Heywood and Lieutenant Robinson. In returning there is a deviation in the street and I was blinded by the light of a car coming towards me. The first thing I knew. I heard a scraping and I shoved on the brakes. SERIOUS INJURIES "As it was the tree side swiped the car with the result that while I was uninjured, being only shaken up, my wife was injured about the head face and leg: Douglass Alexander had his leg and three of his fingers injured. John Heywood had his skull injured and his leg broken. The accident took place shortly after two o'clock Sunday morning. I had carried the two ladies home from my residence here. I was blinded and there is a variation in the avenue at this point. Lieutenant Robinson was killed." BROWN BAILED Funeral Director C. P. Hayes has charge of Robinson's remains. Coroner Whitfield will hold inquest as soon as the condition of the injured people permits. Sam Brown was charged with careless and reckless driving $^2$ and with manslaughter. He was charged with $^3$ $1,000 with "Tan" Turner, as surety. MOR DISARMS TWO OFFICERS AND HANGS ACCUSED MAN. WILLIIS, Texas. February 2—Tom Payne, 25, was taken from two officers by an unmasked mof of white men near Willis last night and hanged to a roadside tree. Payne, a sawmill worker had been arrested yesterday and charged with assault to murder in connection with an attack on Monday night on Jack Rogers, a white sawmill worker. Rogers, whose throat was cut, will recover. Fearing mob violence, the colored man was being taken by officers to Huntsville for safekeeping when they were surrounded by a mob on the road about four miles from Willis and disarmed. Payne has been identified by Rogers earlier in the day as his assailant JOHNSON—TUNSTALL Mr and Mrs. Charles H.

HEAD TO BE CLEARED OF CHARGES THE STATE EXAMINER MAKES FAVORABLE (Preston News Service) COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 11.—Thru a report of an examination of the Combined Normal and Industrial Department of Wilberforce University. Wilberforce Ohio, made by the State Examiner, E. Frank which was filmed by the State Auditor Joseph T. Tracy, February 1 findings affairs in many instances were conducted in an "unbusinesslike manner," no findings for recovery were made against any official connected with the institution and, according to Mr. Tracy, no recovery in law can be made. There was nothng done illegally at Wilberforce. The report goes into great detail in an attempt to verify rumors of misapplication of funds as were brought to the attention of the State Auditor by Sheridan Brussels who claimed to be a Chicago detective who said he had been retained by an organization representing more than a million Negroes through out the country. While the reports show money to have been used for various purposes which might on the surface appear irregular, the report fails to establish that it was illegally used. In one instance it was found that furnishings for Superintendent Richard C. Bundy's private residence, amounting to $3,278.63, had been purchased from State funds, but according to Auditor Tracy this may not be illegal. The report will be turned over to Governor Donahey the board of trustees of the institution and the Attorney General of the State.

Smith preached all day Sunday at the Second Baptist Church. In the morning, his text was from Matthew 5:39-41. His subject was "The Second Mile." Despite the rain a large number were out to hear him. He spoke only about thirty minutes and gave satisfaction. He announced that he would preach again at night. We have just learned with profound regret of the serious illness of our good friend, R. B. Goode, of Abingdon Va., who recently underwent a serious operation and for some time hovered between life and death. We are gratified to know that he is recovering. Mr S. G. Goeback, of 217 E.

Hancock Claims His Position is Misrepresented. Rev. Dr. C. Morris Makes Direct Charges=Challenges Churchman to Debate=Difference Harmonized=Rev. Dr. W. T. Johnson Sounds Warning. (Special by John Mitchell, Jr.) ..The Baptist Ministers' Conference of Richmond and Vicinity met Monday morning at the Ebenezer Baptist Church, with President J. E. Fountain, presiding, Rev D. J Bradford acting secretary, Rev C. Cobb read a paper entitled "The New Social Gospel." A vote of thanks was tendered to him. Rev William H. Skipwith, who had been an honorary member for years was elected an active member. Rev E. C. Smith was elected Secretary Rev C. A. Cobb declining the nomination. Quite a sensation was caused when Rev Gordon B. Hancock, one of the ablest scholars in the State and a professor at the Virginia Union University arose to a question of privilege. CARRIED APPROVAL. He read a paper recently, which was accepted with thanks while another paper read by another member was approved and accepted. It was explained that this carried no discrimination as the resolution as adopted meant the same thing. This seemed to satisfy Dr. Hancock but a moment later, the Conference was thrown into the throes of a bitter (Continued on Page 5.) Fifteen guest were entertained at Mrs. Sarah E. Ersberry's birthday party, February 7 at her residence 510 1-2 P. N. Third Street and all had a wonderful time.

Cooper, the popular bar her seems to have been rejuvenated with new life since his recent indisposition and many are going to his palatial tonsorial parlor for attention. His hair-bobbing department is also being liberally patronized. Call and see him and be good looking. Dr. N Dillard physician and surgeon is located at 1719 E. Main Street, where he is readily accessible to his patrons. He is highly re commended. He is associated with that skilled dentist, Dr. E. B. Bassette. You will surely find your self in the hands of experts. If your teeth need attention there is Dr. Bassette. If your system is anyway run down, there is Dr. Dillard. The Southern Aid Society has reached a state of efficiency that is surprising. That name and B. L. Jordan mean about one and the same the best to be had for the money.

It was expected that a pastor would be called. Moderator E. F. Johnson presided with W. S. Banks, clerk. The minutes were read and adopted. Then followed the transaction of routine business. All was expectancy when the report of the nominating committee, E. F. Johnson chairman, with Deacon A. Washington, W. S. Banks, John T. Taylor and Willie Smith members, was called for. MORE TIME WANTED The committee asked for more time to consider the matter and as a result, the committee was given an indefinite time to make a further report. It is understood that the divine who is called to the pastorate of this church must receive two-thirds of the votes, to be called. In the event that he fails to do so then the committee will bring in another name and so on until the requirements are compiled with. The committee is not unanimous at present on any of the candidates. REV. E. C. SMITH LEADS. It is unofficially reported that had the vote been taken last Monday night, Rev. E. C.

FEBRUARY 12. 1927 DR BUTLER'S STATEMENT The statements of Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler concerning the presidential aspirations of President Coolidge have necessarily attracted nationwide attention. It consisted in the statement that when the proper time comes, President Calvin Coolidge will announce his unwillingness to have his name considered for the Republican presidential nomination in 1928. He plainly states that he has no inside information that his statement is correct, but that he bases it upon the fact that the President's strongest characteristics dictate this course, common sense dictates it. He also announces that he has no information from President Coolidge himself upon this subject, but he advances the opinion upon his own initiative. He overlooks the fact that despite his reticence, President Coolidge is being guided largely by party expediency and that the leaders of the great organization are urging him forward as the most available candidate to carry the Republican Party to success at the poll's next time. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler may be correct, but to the average voter it seems that if President Coolidge had any idea of declining the Republican nomination he would have communicated his wishes to the Republican leaders some time ago. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler's declaration that two oaths of office constitute a third term for the next nomination may have some weight, but the opinion is being rapidly crystallized that no other candidate but Calvin Coolidge can be elected unless as now seems highly probable, a third candidate appears among the Democrats as a result of the nomination of Governor Al Smith on the Democratic ticket.

PAIN APPLY JOHNSQN'S BEL LADONNA PLASTER FOR QUICK SURE RELIEF Pain—resulting from almost any usual cause—can be made to vanish quickly, by applying a Johnson's Belladonna Plaster over the affected part. You can buy this plaster at any drug store. Why suffer terrible agony when such quick, effective and lasting relief is afforded by the simple act of putting on a Johnson's Belladonna Plaster? The beneficial effects of belladonna plaster in quieting pain, diminishing muscular spasms relieving irritability, congestion and contraction—and affording continuous warmth, support and comfort as long as the plaster remains on the body—have the official recognition of pharmacists throughout the world. Forty years ago, Johnson and Johnson the pioneers in making improved belladonna plasters, and today Johnson's Belladonna Plasters ran first in the number sold and used all over the world.

Daniel Robinson, pastor of Mt. Pisgah Baptist Church is highly pleased with the response from his members who were not satisfied until they reshingle the church. Deacon Hines, senior deacon of Mt. Pisgah Baptist Church is suffering this week from severe pains in the side. "We shall soon meet the Lord in the air to give account of our stewardship," declared Dr. Charles S. Morris at the Fifth Street Baptist Church Sunday morning, February 6, 1927, as he continued the series of sermons on "Our Lord's Return to this Earth." This, the fifth of these series of sermons on this startling subject was written in 1955th chapter. "The Christian at the Judgment Bat" Dr. Morris has based his assertions on conditions existing in the world today. In spite of the heavy rainfall a large audience witnessed the morning service and our pastor did not fall to impress upon our minds the vast importance of using our talents for God, so that when we shall stand before Him, amid that great cloud of witnesses, He will say to us as was said to the faithful servants of the five and two talents: "Well done thou good and faithful servant, thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things enter thou into the joy of thy Lord." Dr. Morris preached a special sermon at the Sixth Mount Zion Baptist Church at 3:30 P. M. He was again in his own pulpit at eight o'clock continuing the third of the series of sermons on "Courtship and Marriage" from the subject, "Did He Love Her?" II Samuel 13. Everyone who heard this powerful message could very readily answer the question. Our Ladies' Usher Board with Miss Pearl C. Pearl, Chairlady has been a very valuable asset to our church This auxiliary of 24 ladies was organized about two years ago under the pastorate of Dr. T. J. King. Last year they purchased a memorial new for our new church Rome at the cost of $100.00. Twelve ladies have been added to the board since the erection of our new building, making the number thirty-six. They serve the first and third Sun days in each month. Pastor Morris preached the funeral of Brother Frederick Taylor Saturday from the church at 11 A. M. The body was taken to his home for burial. On account of sickness, Mrs. Phila McGillery White, successor to Mrs. Mary E. Satterfield who left the city for Philadelphia last week was unable to take her place at the organ Mr James Barrett and Mrs. George Thompson played for the Services Sunday. "The Man Who Loafed on the Job" will be Dr. Morris' subject on the Sunday morning series, and "Did It Pay Him to Ruin Her?" at 8:00 P. M.—February 13th. appear in special service 3:30 under Virginia Union University, pastor of the Moore Street Baptist Church will appear in a special at 3:30 under the auspices of the Young Men's Club of Ohio, and will be rendered by the Sabbath Glee Club. P. M. T. Ward, Reporter. VIRGINIA: In the Clerk's Office of the Circuit Court of the City of Richmond, Saturday February 5th, 1927. COURTNEY HARGROVE, Plaintiff against The object of this suit is to obtain a divorce from the bonds of matrimony by the plaintiff from the defendant on the grounds of desertion. And an affidavit having been made and filed that the said Melvin D. Hargrove, the defendant, is not a resident of the State of Virginia, and whose last known post office address was Conmar. Pa. it is therefore ordered that Melvin D. Hargrove do appear here within ten days after the due publication of this order and do what may be necessary to protect his interest in this suit. Teste: CARLAND B TAYLOR D C Teste—GARLAND B TAYLOR D. C A Copy Teste— GARLAND B TAYLOR D. C. WM. F. DENNY, p. q. At Calvary Baptist Church Sunday morning our pastor, Rev. Cobbs, delivered a powerful and interesting sermon using for his subject, Death In the Pot. Although the weather was very inclement, an appreciative audience was present including a large percentage of friends. The devotionals were conducted by Rev. A. D. Clarke and C. B. Jefferson. 3:30 P. M. we had Rev. William Skipwith, one of Calvary's sons to assist our Pastor in administering the Lord's Supper. Our hearts burned within us when he was let loose and began to sing the songs of Zion The Church as a whole was on fire while some were compelled to give way under the pressure of the Spirit of God. Let us come out tomorrow and on time. We are experiencing a great spiritual ecstasy at Calvary Mr Henry A. Jefferson, of the Naval Reserve Force and living at the U. S. Naval Home Philadelphia Pa. is spending several days in Richmond with his mother and relatives. He holds the title of Engineer Mechanic in the Navy. He is the brother of Rev. C. B. Jefferson The Union Level Sunday School was well attended last Sunday and seems to be doing nicely under the leadership of our superintendent, Brother Ruffin. .Last Sunday Pastor B. J. Ruffin was out of the city. Rev. Edward Charity preached at both services. His text at 11:30 was, "I am doing a great work and can't come down." 8:30 "Arise O sleeper and call on EXCITING SCENES (Continued From Page 1) debate, when Rev. Charles S. Morris arose and made the direct charge that Gordon B. Hancock was a believer in evolution and taught the same in his classes at the Virginia Union University. A. TRONG DENIAL. Rev. Hancock denied this and called upon members of his classes to confirm that denial. Rev. E. C. Smith and Rev. E. D. Coffee arose and backed up Dr. Hancock. Then it was that Rev. Dr. Charles S. Morris directed a few direct questions at Dr. Hancock upon this question. The able scholar declined to give a direct answer, but replied in his own way. Dr. Morris asked, "Do you teach that man descended from Adam?" Dr. Hancock exclaimed, "No man has heard me utter any word that is contrary to our doctrine." THAT DIGGING COMPARISON. Rev. Dr. Morris said: "If a man is digging down close to my house on a lot adjoining, he may set up the same plea, but we all know just what will follow, if he continues at the work." This created a sensation and Dr. Hancock protested. Presidate Fountain tried to get order and in this he was aided by other members of the Conference. Rev. Dr. Morris exclaimed, "I challenge you to a debate on evolution." He said that if Dr. Hancock wanted to produce students, who stated that he had not taught evolution in his classes, he would produce as many more, who would testify that he had taught it. WARNED AGAINST DIVISION. Rev. Dr. W. T. Johnson stated that he remembered many years back when there were four ministers' conferences in Richmond and that this kind of discussion would bring about this same state of affairs. We have only one now and all should avoid these discussions. With this the matter ended. Rev. J. E. Jeltz National Baptist Convention soloist and song leader was introduced and sang with power. "Lift Him Up." He has a stentorian voice under absolute control and is a power on the rostrum. His enunciation is superb and the melody of his voice mellifluent. The body then went into executive session. TWO THEORIES HARMONIZE On the outside, Rev. Dr. Hancock, when approached stated that he believed in both Fundamentalism and Evolution, and that a man could accept both. He took the position that a person should investigate and his attitude seemed to be that both theories could be harmonized. Many members of the Conference would like to hear the subject discussed in full before the ministers only. in order that this puzzling question may be explained to many, who desire to know the underlying principles of both schools of thought. There is little doubt, but what the Conference itself is overwhelmingly in favor of Fundamentalism, as though some one or two of the leaders question the statement. THAT TEST QUESTION From Rev. Dr. Morris's attitude his test question is "Do you believe that man descended from Adam as a north in Genesis? Answer, yes or not." LORENCE LETTER FLORENCE, S. C. February 9 When a young lawyer decides to practice law, he opens his office, hangs out his sign. We say he has hung out his shingle, ready for business. Mr. Henry Brown our efficient organist is tired of the single life, and wishes to inform the young ladies that he fails to see how a musical class can be complete without having an intended bride in the bunch. Mr. Francis W. Boone, of New York desires his friends to observe that certain days of the week he is to be found at the city library after school hours, rambling for select reading matter. The Lord's Supper was administered by Pastor Jones at the Trinity Baptist Church Sunday morning. A large crowd was present. Collection for the day was $125.55. Deacon Jackson reported a successful Union at Wayside Baptist Church January 28.30. Deacon E. Reed lifted a collection for the poor of the church. Dr. Jones presented E. B. Webster to speak. Mr. Webster said he was thankful to the Lord for being able to come out after a critical illness. Notwithstanding the lateness of the hour and the amount of work to be done, he felt duty bound to himself and his loneness to call attention to the literary exercises to be given by the members of the church Monday, the 14th at 8 P. M. for the benefit of the church and that he expected at least one of the young ladies to call by for him and hoped that they would not disappoint him. From the smiles of approval which the notice prompted, there is going to be a landslide. Now, in order that there should be no confusion we think it the part of wisdom that we ride in a closed car of the latest variety and that we travel a vacant street at full speed. P. S.—Up to this time, Tuesday evening February 8, there is less than a baker's dozen of applications received. Mr. Joe DeLane died at Chapel Hill, N. C. January 29 and was buried at Darlington. The body was accompanied by his widow, Mrs. Canary DeLane. The following chil dren were left to mourn their loss: Elinor oldest daughter: Joe Van William, Henry, Roy and B. J. DeLane.

Thirteen years ago twelve 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 before 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 pea. Since that time I have not suffered with the gravel.

IF CARNEGIE. 1.000.000.000 FOR GOLF. If North and South America cannot set before the rest of the world an example of peace and common sense, something is wrong with North or South America. This year the Latin Republic will spend $100,000,000 developing railroads, and most of the money will be borrowed in the United States. Chile is negotiating a $40,000,000 loan in New York to electrify the Chilean State Railways. Apparently those South American republics have public officials sufficiently honest and competent to manage State railways. The financing of desirable industrial enterprises in South America by United States banks is a useful investment for American money. When Andrew Carnegie sold his mills to United States Steel he would accept only special bonds, wouldn't take preferred stock as a gift, laughed at the common stock saying it wasn't even water, it was "air." Recent figures would surprise and probably annoy Mr. Carnegie's Scotch thrift. The steel company in 1926 earned $199,004,741, enough to new $17,96 a share on the common stock, a new record of peace-time prosperity in the steel business. One billion dollars will be spent on new golf courses and clubhouses this year, including the cost of 1,000 new golf clubs starting and maintenance of old clubs. If the nation could build a thousand new living machines, one for each new golf club, to protect the links and paddle gentlemen playing on them, it would be a good thing. Dry millers seize $25,000 worth of "blending" machinery used to treat brittle milling, churnt- Civilization Flies on Tony Tommy, chief of the Seminole Indians of Florida, greets engineer Ralph Holmes of the Florida East Coast Railway, who has just brought the Florida Special, crack train into Miami, and only 36 hours out of New York. The Big Chief, a graduate of Carliale Indian school, and named for the All-American football team in 1915-16, loses no opportunity to convince the public that the Seminoles are worthy to become citizens of the United States. He came to greet the famous train which, now on its fortieth annual run, makes the trip from the North in greatly reduced time. He was amazed that the Florida East Coast Limited, a companion train, makes the trip in only one night out. in a fine inauguration. The Bleeding has been going on full blast for four months. Many an American has damaged his mucous membrane, aberring the procedure that maneuvered. Governor Ritchie, of Kentucky, himself widely discussed in connection with the Democratic Presidential nomination, says Governor Smith, of New York, "is the outstanding Democrat in the United States." On the other hand, Mr. Milton, editor of the Chattanooga News says William G. McAdoo is the only man for Democrats to nominate. Mr. Milton says Governor Smith cannot be nominated because "the country is seventy per cent dry, and no wet can be elected to the Presidency." Governor Smith's friends say, "wash and kneel." New York Stock Exchange seat that he bought in 1883, forty-five years ago. He never uses it, keeps it perhaps to remind him of old days when he was making money for himself before he began spending his millions in Rockefeller Foundations, institutes, fighting disease--for other people. That seat, which probably cost Mr. Rockefeller less than $50,000 he could sell now for $180,000. If he holds it a little longer, it will be worth $200,000. Russian husbands and wives will be interested in their mail from now on. For a divorce you simply notify the authorities that you want it, then send word to your better half through the post office and that settles it. You are divorced. In China the thing is more serious. The natives hate strangers as cats hate dogs. They are tired of watching foreigners spend money, having courts and territory of their own, and are glad when the time comes to murder a few. The murdering seems to be close at hand. Uncle Sam has some of his ships there, and unpleasant news may be expected. After the Boxer rebellion, when the other nations compelled the Chinese to pay millions in damages, this nation handed the money back. But that won't help our popularity. When Europe was in trouble, Uncle Sam sent an army of two million men, five thousand million dollars, and other thousands of millions since. In Wings of Steel, Says Tony Tommy, Seminole THE WAY HE USED TO TR "What! New York to Miami in a day and one-half, and twenty-four trains a day each way! Civilization flies like the eagle, but on wings of steel and has truly come into the Land of the Seminoles," said the chief when informed that the new double track line clear from Miami to New York, and new equipment, had THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND' VIRGINLA About Your Health Things You Should Know by John Joseph Gaines, M. D. I wonder if my readers sometimes pass to think of the boundless privileges that men and women possess? There is nothing in or on this big, round earth—no, nor in the skies above, that is not ours to lay hold of, and use as we please, so long as we respect the rights of our fellow-men and women. Yet, man is the only created being that abuses his divine permit, well knowing that he must suffer by so doing. Like the spoiled child, he sprees, does excesses in everything debauches his digestive, eliminative, nervous and sexual systems—there is no privilege that he does not abuse—and the penalties are as sure as today's sunset! The abuse of privilege is mankind's most outstanding sin; we ought to be ashamed of ourselves, —blessed as we are above all animal species, and defiantly induging our appetites as if we were damageproof. Who among us has ever observed one of the so-called lower animals violating the natural law? Violating the law of right living? They are seldom ill, and usually live out the full expectation of life unless man interferes. Excesses in food and drink; extravagance in our output of energy; prodigality in things which are sacred; intemperance in so-called luxuries; defiance within the orchard of forbidden fruits—all these are producers of suffering and unhappiness, curtailers of life itself. I am not sermonizing. — I am arguing for temperance in ALL things, and against the violation of our God-given privileges, knowing that life health and happiness are the sure rewards. Right living will, in time, do away with the doctor and his gripful of "pellets." There is nothing that we may not use; the danger lies in abuse.

Thousands of new tropical products give Miami and the adjoining region unsuspected opportunities for wealth which may create, and, in fact, many scientists believe will create, a rich future along lines now undreamed of. For the greater part of its length of 141 miles, the new automobile road parallels the huge concrete viaducts and steel trestles of the Florida East Coast Railway. The railway is a vast engineering project. Its stupendous and permanent character can scarcely be imagined. Combined with a fast ocean-ferry service of seven hours between Key West and Havana, the railway brings New York City within 53 hours travel of Havana.

Thousands of tiny tree-clad islands are beheld on every hand. The waters teem with fishes, small and large. The right of such vast school in the shoals must be akin to the amazement with which the Western pioneers bear millions of buffaloes. The marvelous colors of the water which present every hue of the rainbow will appeal to those who wish to "See America First." Nowhere else in the world is anything like it.

Mr. Forke's message follows: "American capitalists have invested hundreds of millions of dollars in Canada and thousands of American farmers have come to our country to share in its opportunities. Every time the Dominion increases its population by 1,000,000 people we increase our trade with the country by $100,000,000. Americans have an interest in sending population to Canada to help with the development since it has a direct reaction upon prosperity in the United States."

He is improving under the care of Dr. George E. Moore. ..Mrs. Jennie Hylton, of Northwest Eighth Avenue is sick, and has been for several weeks. Mrs. Ellen Spencer. of Peach Road has been sick for two weeks. Mr. E. M. Crawley, of Northwest Eleventh Avenue and his son have been sick several weeks. They are convalescing. Dr. W. R. Howerton discourses on Isaiah 5:31 Sunday morning, at Mt. Zion A. M. E. Church. The text was "He shall see the travail of His soul and shall be satisfied." It was a matchless discourse on the subject "Satisfying the Heart of Christ In Our Lives." Dr. Howerton delivered another very helpful message at 8 o'clock from Psalms 1:1,2,3. Prosperity in times of seeming adversities has been the expience of many who have gone this way. $ It was learned today that Mr. Cephas Brown, a brakeman in the N. and W. yards got a finger cut off while at his work. He was taken to the hospital for treatment. Mr. Brown resides on Seventh Avenue. Mr. Jacob King, 206 Ninth Avenue N. W. was retired and pensioned Monday, January 31 after 40 years of service with the Roanoke Machine Works. He received a fine $4.80 leather rocker, a pair bed room slip pers and a cake with 40 candles, indicating the years of service. No man has received greater encomiums than Jacob King. He is a fine and strong specimen of manhood after 40 years of service in the foundry department. He was obedient to the laws of health and to those having authority over him.
