City Council Action May Lose Arent's Library. $4,000 Automobile Campaign Going Over Big. VOLUME XLIV. NO. 37 ST COLO City C $4,00 (Special by John Mitchell, Jr.) Benjamin Jones, a World War veteran, residing with his mother, Mrs. Rachee Jones 2115 Walnut St. (Woodville) was dangerously cut with a knife by Mrs. Alberta Hines of 2608 Newborn St. Saturday evening, July 16, at about 6 o'clock. His upper muscle in one arm is nearly severed and the large vein in his neck was cut in two. A call at St. Philips Hospital brought out the information that his condition is not good. ONLY CHILDREN THERE. Going over to A. D. Price's establishment, James Underwood was soon at the wheel and a few moments later I was at a humble residence in Woodville in sight of the Mt. Tabor Baptist Church, where the late lamented Rev. R. J. Bass labored for so many years. A young woman was dressing two little chil dren. She gave her name as Mrs. Elsie Davis. She stated that most of the people were in the city shopping at the time the affair took place. She was away and only her children were there. A SISTER'S STATEMENT Her sister, Alberta Hines, who cut Benjamin Jones, was not there. She did not know anything about it. She afterwards said that she had heard that Jones had threatened to kill her sister and he had showed her the bullets with which he expected to do it. She did not pay any attention to him, thinking that he was running on. She heard that her sister ordered him away and he came over into the yard and she cut him. Another version was that Alberta Hines threw a rock at Benjamin Jones and when he ran towards her afterwards she cur him. KNEW NOTHING. Alberta's sister said that Mrs. Willia Bolling knew he said that he was going to get bullets to kill her. A visit to Mrs. Bolling brought out the disclaimer. She did not know anything about it. She saw them in the street and Jones had his hands at his side, but she thought they were playing. Alberta Hines had not been arrested Sunday morning when we called there, but her sister said that she had advised her to give herself up. . . BEN JONES' MOTHER. Visiting Benjamin Jones' residence, in a small one story structure, we found a pleasant faced woman of the Old Mammy type. Her name is Mrs. Rachel Jones and she stands well in the community. She is the mother of four children: Mrs. Elizabeth Reid, Mrs. Lena Tompkins, Ernest Jones and Benjamin Jones. She told the following story: "This woman has not been out of the county jail more than three weeks. I advised my son to stay away from her. About two months ago, Alberta Hines came right here (she pointed to the spot) and stabbed Benjamin in the back. BLOOD FLOWED FREELY "Blood flowed freely and he had fo go to the hospital for treat- it at my boy (over-my head. I knocked her down and I hurt my arm in doing so." Mrs. Lena Tompkins' Ben Jones' sister, said that he had one of his muscles nearly severed. He was cut about the neck and she tried to cut his throat. He lost much blood aud was in a bad condition last night. Going to St. Philips Hospital, I saw two patients swathed in bandages in the lobby. SURGEONS ACTED. The lady in charge politely stated that the surgeon in charge had not come on yet; An operation was performed last night. The nurse who had been on duty that night in charge of Jones was asleep. Hastening out to the car, I was soon again at The Planet office preparing another report on this near tragedy. ARREST ALBERTAHINES SEE ADMITS CUTTING JONES. Alberta Hines, who cut her seriously wounded Benjamin Jones has been captured by the police. She escaped at the time of the attack and finally Officer Fred L. Bates located her. She admitted her guilt. The case is that of a married woman for a single man and vce vce vce. Her married name is Smith and her husband is in West Virginia. She was bailed in the sum of $2,000. The injured man is in a serious condition. ENTERTAINED IN OLEAN: N. Y Mrs. Gladys C. Lucas, formerly of Richmond, Va., but now of Olean N.

RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JULY 23 1997 Library Case May Revert to St. Andrew's (Richmond News-Leader, July 19) The Grace Arents' branch library may be lost to the city of Richmond should it be necessary to close the institution through failure of council to provide temporarily for the salaries of its employees, it developed today. Closing of the library, it is believed would be a violation of the terms under which it was given the city and cause the property to revert to the St. Andrew's Association. Four members of council blocked the library appropriation on July 5 because the library board retained on the payroll Henry Thompson, Negro fanitor of long service. The deed given the city by the St. Andrews' Association, which held the title for Miss Arents, provides that the property shall revert to its previous ownership if it is not used for library purposes. A shut-down may be construed as violation of terms of the deed and of the city ordinance of acceptance which is incorporated in the deed. MAY PASS FROM CITY. If the library property passes out of the city's hands, the $100,000 maintenance fund handed the city by the executors of the Arents' estate also will pass out of the city's hands, it was indicated. The. St. Andrew's Association, which has operated the library for more than a decade, has funds with which to reopen the library under the old terms and independent of the city, it is said. Fourteen votes were necessary to pass the appropriation at the meeting of common council July 5. Because four members—Atkinson, Miller, Robertson and Tyler—voted against it, the measure could summon only thirteen votes, and so was lost. It now is on the table because one member who had voted for the measure changed his vote so he could move reconsideration. SALARIES HELD UP Failure of the appropriation—which would finance the library-pending receipt of interest from the trust fund—served to hold up the salaries of the five members of the library staff. They were not paid on July 15 for the first half of July and there is said to be no assurance that they will be paid on the next payday—August 1. In such a case it would close down. The four members voted against the appropriation because a white man wanted the $15-per-week job held by Thompson, the Negro janitor. Thompson was an employee of Miss Arents for about twelve years and has given faithful service as janitor for many years. A storm of protest followed the failure of the appropriation, and among the people who have deprived the situation have been O. H. Funk and the Arents, the janitors with the First and Merchants' National Bank, and John Stewart Bryan, chairman of the public library board. The Arents' library serves a very wide area and the property is valued at $100,000. The trust fund is $100,000 in cash. Thus if the city loses the bequest through violation of its terms a substantial portion of its library property will be sacrificed Lyncher Is Freed WYTHEVILLE, VA., July 20.—Floyd Willard (white) charged with murder on account of being an alleged member of the mob that lynched Raymond Bird. He colored man on the night of August 14, 1926 having taken him from the county jail, unsealed an alibi. He was somewhere else when the crime was committed. Wayne Dean, Havoc Charles Guggins and W. P. Cooley, residents of Brayson county testified that they had been out fox hunting and that Willard described how the colored man was lynched. TWO SISTERS. Willard declared that he was at home on the night of the lynchings and he produced witnesses to prove it. This is one of the most remarkable cases ever tried in this section. Raymond Bird was said to have been intimate with two of the sisters in a white family and that the females refused to prosecute him. They were in a condition that required for one of them hospital attention. Finding that he could not be legally convicted upon a charge of rape, a mob decided to lynch him and to override the law of the State. MOR LEADERS NOT ARRESTED. The feeling here among both classes is that the real leaders of the mob have never been apprehended. One man out of the crowd was selected to make a test case and then have the whole matter ended once for all. The action of the State officials is being highly commended here and it is recognized that the officials were in earnest in an effort to punish those who overrode the law. Colored people here are not doing any talking, although it may be that the white family will leave the neighborhood' NOTICE!

Notwithstanding the gloomy weather which unmered in the day, a capacity crowd wents with us. The railroad authorities as well as the street car company left no stone unturned to make the day enjoyable by all. The Folds promoting the Excursion made a splendid record in the report for the sale of tickets. Rev. William Thomas Memorial Fold led with more than $200 to their credit for the sale of tickets. We extend our hearty thanks to all of the members of the organization and our friends for making such an outing possible. Pride of Croaker Fold located at Norge, Va. made a splendid showing in this Excursion. They carried a car-load of people from Norge. On September 14th the Shepherds will carry another big excursion to Bay Shore. Plans are now being worked out which will guarantee a big day for the Shepherds and their friends. Tuesday, July 12th the Grand Presiding Shepherd in company with Grand Secretary Treasurer A. C. Clark, Mr. Roscoe C. Mitchell, Mrs. D. Webster Davis and Mr. Frank McWilliams motored to Newport News, for the purpose of holding a meeting with the local committee of Newport, News, looking forward to the perfection of arrangements for the Grand Fold meeting in September. A joint meeting of the Grand Officers and the local committee was held at the home of Mrs. Lizzie McPherson. This meeting was largely attended by members of the local committee. We found on this committee the following persons who were greatly aiding Mrs. Lizzie McPherson in putting over the program: Dr. S. A. Thomas, Prof. J. S. Lee, Mr. Roger Kyles, and others. Ways and means were discussed by the Grand Shepherd and her committee and the members of the Newport News committee. The Newport News Committee evidenced considerable interest in their efforts to make this the largest and most successful convention ever held by our Order. Besides the usual details considered in connection with making arrangements for our annual convention a big street parade was authorized, which will take place on the second day of the convention. The committee entered heartily into the promotion of this parade and promises that this will be one of the outstanding events in connection with our convention. A. Card of Thanks.

You are welcome ESSEX Tops its Greatest Triumph with even Greater Values THE TRAIN ESSEX Super-Six Canada Is Now Celebrating Her Diamond Jubilee GEORGE STEPHEN, LORD MOUNT STEPHEN DONALD SMITH, LORD STRATHCONA, DRIVING LAST SPIKE, C.P.R. SIR JOHN MACDONALD On July 1. Dominion Day. Canada began the celebration of her sixtieth birthday as a united Dominion. This Diamond Jubilee of Confederation has unique significance in modern history as being in effect a tribute to the importance of the Confederation. The United States really acknowledges today that railways greatly help in uniting a scattered and far-flung population. But Canada's case is unique because its first transcontinental railway alone made complete confederation a reality instead of a mere desirable policy. Canada's confederation began with passage of the British North America Act on July 1, 1867, the members at that time comprising Upper Canada, Lower Canada, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. In 1869 an Imperial Order in Council gave Now on Display Rupert's Land and the North-West Territories to the fledging Dominion. Manitoba entered Confederation in 1870, followed by British Columbia in 1871. The latter, however, had written into the Terms of Union a clause binding Canada to build within ten years a railway "to connect the seaboard of British Columbia with the railway system of Canada." The Canadian government first attained this status in 1881 through the Premier Sir John Macdonald approached George Stephen (afterwards Lord Mount Stephen), a Montreal banker, who in October of 1880 organized the Canadian Pacific Railway Company, and agreed to complete the railway by May 1, 1891. Despite colossal obstacles, the Canadian Pacific completed the railway to Montreal. THE RICHMOND PLANET.

Yet one glance—one ride in the New Essex Super-Six reveals the startling reasons that prompted it. If thousands praised the former Essex, then tens of thousands must applaud the new. If all sales records were surpassed by the former Essex, then even higher marks must reward the new. No previous car—no previous value—gives anything by which to judge it. It is the greatest achievement in Essex history. 2-Pass. Speedabout $700; 4-Pass Coupe $730 All prices f. o. b. Det.

On Nov. 7, 1885, Donald A. Smith (afterwards Lord Strathcona), drove the last spike on the Canadian Pacific Railway, uniting the rails stretching westward from the Atlantic Ocean and those eastward from the Pacific at Cragnelachle, British Columbia, and making Canada's Confederation an accomplished fact. We are now showing this Greater EssexSuper-Six. We could say it is longer, roomier, more luxurious, with greater power and performance—yet that does not express it. We do say: "See it and ride in it with greater expectation of fine things than you ever held for any but the costliest cars". You will not be disappointed.

"The conference was not of importance simply to the Mississippi Valley." What perfecting of the great inland water highways would be to citizen of the United States was told Mayor Thompson in the statement by C U Williams of Bloomington, Ill. president of the largest oil-burner company in the United States. "We recently shipped an Oil-Matic burner from Bloomington to Providence R. I., by rail," he said. "On the same day we started another to Providence from San Francisco by water. It reached its destination three days ahead of the one sent by rail, and the cost was three dollars less.

FLOGGED AND MADE TO SELL HIS PROPERTY BIRMINGHAM, ALA., July 14—All members of the band of masked men which flogged Arthur Hitt, colored farmer, will be under arrest within a few days county authorities said today, following an investigation into the affair which culminated in Hitt's transverting for a nominal sum a small tract of land which he did not wish to sell. Authorities believe Hitt, who was characterized as a "respectable land owner," was coerced into selling by threats of violence. WANTED 50 Thousand Skinny Men TO PUT ON AT LEAST 5 POUNDS OF SOLID FLESH IN 30 DAYS Countless thousands of underweight men and women have got rid of that scrawny face and figure by a simple easy treatment that is sure and inexpensive. It's really marvelous how quickly those who try it on take flesh where flesh is most needed. Hollows in neck and chest fill out and narrow sunken chested men begin to take on a decided malnutrition in just a few weeks. The one great scientific weight producer that people who need more flesh can depend upon is McCoy's Tablets and besides helping you to develop an attractive figure these sugar-coated tablets bring to all that take them more energy, strength and v go—they have proven a super tonic. McCoy takes all the risk—Read this nonclad guarantee. If after taking 4 sixty cent boxes of McCoy's Tablets or 2 One Dollar boxes any thin, underweight man or woman doesn't gain at least 5 pounds and feel completely satisfied with the marked improvement in health—your drugstiff is authorized to return the purchase price. The name McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Tablets has been shortened—just ask for McCoy's Tablets at any drug store in America. NICELY FURNISHED OR UNFURNISHED ROOMS. Modern conveniences. 407 W.

JULY 23 1927 It is a safe plan.—when you do not know what to do, do nothing. Some people delight in displeasing other people. Doing right always pays in the long run. You cannot accomplish much by running away from trouble. The proper way is to face it. When you learn to have faith and to pray, you will have made great progress in your religion. ; The essence of law is to mete equal and exact justice. We shall win our reward if we keep to the straight and narrow path and faint not. Delays are sometimes dangerous and on the other hand speedy action sometimes ends in disaster. Our friends are helping us and we are helping our friends. It is a long lane that has no turn. President King of Liberia now seems to be safely in the saddle in that country. It is a view of an embarrassing situation from a new angle. Some of these white folks are certainly hard-up and they would bring others down to their level. Missionaries are needed in some of these neighborhoods. President Calvin Coolidge is satisfying his friends and puzzling his enemies. He is not talking about the presidential nomination but his action seems to indicate that he is very much interested and that it will take "mighty little persuasion to get him to become a candidate again. Disciple Chairman of the Fourth District Race Forward Movement has launched a campaign for the raising of money to enable the organization to arouse the colored people of that section of Virginia to the necessity of laying and perfecting plans for the protection of the colored people and to stimulate our young folks in the ways of industrial activity. The fact that the white people of the city may lose the Grace Arents Library property and the $100,000 for upkeep on account of the action of four Negrohaters in the City Council, who would rather throw out of employment four white lady employees in order to oust one $15 Per week colored janitor is arousing interest and indignation throughout this city.

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 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 so and get some of L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicine and try before being operated on. I did so, 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.

IF I HAD SOME MUSH. justice Taft says he likes the law better than the White House and, nearing his seventieth year, announces he will not retire. He certainly should not retire, for he owes to the public many future years of good effort. His mind and his smile are as young as ever, and every well informed man in the United States, big or little, would gladly submit any issue to the judgment of Chief Justice Taft. In six hours New York's National Guard laid out an airplane base, ready for use, with radio, telephone and all other requirements. A fine achievement. The United States Government should take as much time as necessary to provide an airplane base for every great city. Governors Island in New York Harbor should be given up entirely to flying, with a big dock for submarines. The richest city, New York, containing the United States Sub-Treasury and all its gold, is unprotected from the air. There ought to be an air field there from which swift United States pursuit planes would rise like mosquitoes from a stagnant pond, to meet any invader. Human belings are like children.

When Uncle Sam's fiscal year ended last week, he found a surplus of $635,000,000. Secretary Melon had "guessed" $625,000,000, a good萌萌. Uncle Sam really is a rich person and can afford anything he needs. He ought to dig canals, harness water power, build the greatest air and submarine fleets in the world. He should stop trying to persuade Europe to do what it doesn't want to do, attend to his own business and be in a position to make other nations mind theirs. Until this nation is prepared to defend itself against any ten other nations the Government will not have done its duty. "Well done, but what did you do the next day?" Fokker, airplane builder, would have an answer ready for Napoleon's favorite question. On Wednesday a Fokker plane flew to Honnell. Next day a Fokker plane reached France. Now Fokker announces a plane to donation for seventy two hours to the army to福州. 5,000 miles. This Government should contract with Fokker to keep him here for life building airplanes. Ancient Monarchs and Poes offered any investment that would bring great artists to their courts. The great artist of today is the airplane artist.

Convicts begged permission to save the boys, but the guards, riffles leveled, forbade them to follow their impulse, jump into the river and pull the drowning boys ashore. The three boys drowned while guards and convicts looked on, some of the latter weeping. Once more those convicts feel that they never had a chance, not even a chance to help others, at risk to themselves. They had a bad start in life, most of them, and things have gone wrong with them ever since. When they missed the opportunity to save life they again felt cheated.
