THE RICHMOND PLANET SHIRLEY WINNEGAN SENTENCED TO DIE IN ELECTRIC CHAIR Denies He Murdered Hilda Barlow--Colored Youth Identifies Him as Guilty Man--Was Inmate of Lunatic Asylum on Parole--Remarkable Scenes Here. VOLUME XLV, NO. 4 SHIRL SENT Denies He Man--Was (Special by John Mitchell, Jr.) Shirley Winnegan was found guilty of murder in the first degree and his penalty fixed at death. Judge Mathews sentenced him to die January 25, 1928. Attorney Martin had moved to set aside the verdict as contrary to law and evidence. Winnegan's remark was: "And you are killing an honest man." He evidently intended to say innocent man. A penal and sensational trial was stag-d in the Hustings Court: this city, Tuesday, November 29th, 1927 when Shirley Winneman, sometimes called Shirley Willingham was placed on trial before Judge W. Kirk Mathews upon a charge of criminally assaulting and murdering Hilda Barlow, a 14-year-old white girl near Smithfield, Isle of Wight County, Va., October 14th, 1927. Legally speaking, Shirley Willingham, is a lunatic, having had commitment papers issued for his incarceration in the Central Hospital (lunatic asylum) in Petersburg, Va. AN INTERESTING STORY. There is an interesting story connected with this case. No one saw him actually commit the crime. The most damaging witness against him was James Martin Godwin, an 18-year-old colored youth. In order to prevent a lynching in Isle of Wight County or elsewhere, Sheriff W. H. Chapman with the co-operatitn of Commonwealth's Attorney George P. Whitley removed Winnegan to the Portsmouth jail. From there he hung in the Petersburg jail. The report that a mob of a thousand men were enroute to lynch him in Petersburg, caused his removal to Richmond. BROUGHT TO RICHMOND. Feeling was so high that Judge B. D. White ordered that the case be transferred for trial to Richmond Va. The court appointed Attorney James G. Martin, one of the ablest lawyers in Virginia to defend Winnegan, and to the surprise of thousands, he accepted the challenge. His ability to convince powers were all thrown in the balances to stem the tide which was sweeping Winnegan, a legally adjudged lunatic, to the electric chair. Law-Abiding Officers Ousted. In the meantime, an election had taken place in Isle of Wight County, Virginia, and both of the present officers, who had defended and protected Shirley Winnegan from the mob, thus complying with their oaths of office, were defeated. The names of the officers were two, the ballot and as a result the regular candidates for Commonwealth's Attorney and sheriff were defeated. Declined to Serve. Attorney A. E. S. Stevens declined to serve as Commonwealth's Attorney, but W. C. Whitehead, also has been a candidate before against Sheriff Chapman, will accept. Judge B. D. White had commented that the case saving Shiley Vinkman from the mob that vainly tried to lynch him. The Hustings Court. The Hustings Court of Richmond has been the scene of many celebrated trials, but none had ever been staged here with the settings of this Isle of Wight case. Judge B. D. White had signed the order transferring the case from his court to this city. A large crowd of white citizens had come to attend the trial. Judge W. Kirk Matthews required that the seating capacity should not be exceeded. His order was obeyed. The Jurors. No word either for or against the prisoner could be heard. The jury was composed of leading white citizens. They were Messrs. F. F. Rennie, Jr., Thomas B. Howell, P. Cardoza, H. R. Groves, W. G. Capitaine, G. L. Harrison and P. G. Carter. They sat deeply interested to the right of the judge. On the left side the clerk of the court, sometimes Clerk Walter Christian and sometimes Deputy Clerk Breeden. The Sergeant John G. Saunders sat in front of the judge's stand, while at the tables were arrayed the legal luminaries from Isle of Wight County, consisting of Commonwealth's Attorney W. C. Whitehead. At his side, sat special counsel, Attorney E. H. Williams, who had been employed by the family of the unfortunate girl, to prosecute Winnegan. To him was assigned the task of cross examining the witness. Near him, first at one place and then at another, was that masterly cross-examiner. Commonwealth's Attorney, Dave E. Satterfield, showed what was assistant, Charles Tinsley, who is a walking law encyclopedia. What's the use of talking about the defense? At a table to the left sat a nimble, gaunt, keen-eyed strategist. He was as polite as a dancing master. His citation of a law were as certain and as powerful as a trip hammer. The Lone Defender. He heeded the admonitions of the court with serupulous exactness. Alone at his task with Shirley Winnenean, alias Willingham, sitting slightly to his rear, he battled for the life of this colored man and fought vainly to save him from the electric chair, Attorney Martin's demeanor and legal ability, ungrudgingly tendered won for him the commendation of his legal adversaries and the admiration of the court. Then came the white people from Smithfield and Isle of Wight County outside of the enclosure reserved for the legal profession and the jurors. Few Colored Folks Not more than a dozen colored persons were in the rear of the court room. Some were witnesses. Sitting close to Shirley Winnegan was John Mitchell, Jr. During the recess he said that some one had put the dirt on his trousers to injure him. He said, too, that the slight blood stains found on his hand and clothes were due to his running into another man with a wheelbarrow, while he was at work that day. Judge Matthews Supreme This scene had for its central figure Judge W. Kirk Matthews, who presided with absolute impartiality. Whatever his thoughts were, he did not portray them on his countenance. This then was the scene in the capital of the late Confederacy and it showed the change which has taken place within half a century. The word "nigger" had no place either among ANNOUNCEMENT Madam Alice Cooper, of 808 St Paul Street, has just completed a new system for Faro System" and is prepared to serve patrons desiring this treatment.

THANKSGIVING DAY AT FOSTER On Thursday, November 24, 1927, Dr. W. T. Johnson, pastor of the First Baptist Church, accompanied by members of his choir, church, and deacon board, left the city at 8:45 A. M. to hold Thanksgiving services and render a musical programme at the Foster Creek Baptist Church of Louisa, Va. Comfortably seated in a V. E. P. bus, our merry party, composed of Dr. W. T. Johnson, Misses Gladys Lucas, Cecile McCray, Mesdames Nannie G. Cobbs, Mildred Cross, Carrie Hawkins, Cora E. Hill, Ella Carter, Mary Lucas, Mozelle Williams, Fannie E. Johnston, Rosa Patterson, Lucy A. E. Harris, Messrs. George Willkinson, Richard Thumpkins, Samuel Gatewood, F. Johnson, Edward Clay, Deacons Joseph Charity and Richard Harris. We soon arrived at Michie Johnson Villa, th, beautiful country home of Dr. and Mrs. W. T. Johnson. To this adorable place, Mrs. W. T. Johnson had preceded us the day before and there, with the assistance of the faithful housekeeper, Miss Mary Scott, she waited to receive us with open arms. After a few moments rest, we were ushered into the dining room, where the tables fairly groaned under the weight of the delicacies of the season. We partook heavily of a most appetizing menu, after which we continued our journey to the church, where a large crowd awaited us. Here we received a most hearty and cordial welcome by the pastor, Rev. R. J. Green, B. D., his deacons and his congregation, and their white friends. Dr. W. T. Johnson preached a most befitting sermon showing how morning and evening, singing was a thanksgiving unto God. The musical program consisted of anthems, spirituals, quartet, male chorus and select readings by Mrs. Mozelle Williams and Mrs. Ella Carter. Dr. Johnson then presented Deacons Richard L. Harris and Joseph Charity, and Mrs. Johnson, with a few appropriate remarks presented each member of our party to the congregation. On the return trip, on the request of Dr. Johnson, we stopped at the home of one who was shut in by the hand of affliction. Here we rendered three sacred numbers, which were enjoyed and appreciated. When we finally separated to go to our several homes, each one felt that the day had been enjoyably spent and had been a spiritual benefit to all concerned. Mr. D. C. Deans, the popular representative of the North Carolina Mutual Insurance Company, who has been indisposed for weeks, is well-nigh himself again. Rev. B. D. Ellis, pastor of First Baptist Church, Louisa, Va. was in the city during the Thanksgiving season. He was looking well. When it comes to the Mosque, folks are satisfied. The prices of admission are like the shows. They are all tight. You get worried sometimes. Your mind should be taken off your troubles. That's why so many people a tend the Mosque Theatre. Its only 25 cents. A sensation was caused: Saturday night before 12 o'clock when Leroy Jackson, 27 years of age fired at Lenoy Mason five times, striking him twice, in his legs and once in his body, the bullet passing through his back and coming out in front. The witnesses on the police blotter are: J. R. M. Taylo, C. M. Hooker, P. L. Tilzer, Jessie Epps, Doc Davis Salle Epps, Leroy Mason, Wm. J. Johnson Two half-pint bottles of whiskey were found on Jackson. Going to the Second Police Station Sunday morning, Leroy Jackson was seen in a cell there. He stated that he was with this girl, who lives in Newton. He went with her part of the way down town. Her name is Sallie Epps. Her married name is Terrell, her husband out of the city, Jackson got off at his house. Laser he went to the Blitmore where he met him. He danced with the Mason cam girl grabbed him and knocked him down. When they got out in the street, the fight continued. Mason knocked, three of his falsetooth out. He then shot him. Jackson sait that he was and had been under the treatment of Dr. Brown and Dr. Davig. Mason was removed 'o St. Philips Hospital where he lies in a critical condition. You can go in when you please and coms cut, when you wish to do so at the Mosque. He doesn't worry about rain, show or sleet; any more. He purchased one of those guaranteed Goodyear Raincoats and his troubles are now over. See advertisement. It's near Christmas. Remember us as one of your friends. Send in your subscription now. DIED ASKING PRAYERS. Annie Hardy, 1905 Short P Street arose Wednesday night to be prayed for at the services held at the Bedford Holiness Church, Cedar and Mosby Streets. She collapsed and died. Funeral Director W. A. Price is in charge of the remains. THANKSGIVING SURPRISE Thanksgiving Surprise to the interns at City Home by the Charitable Union will long be remembered by over two hundred persons, the largest number ever present on a Thanksgiving Day. We are thankful to say we were prepared to serve them all in abundance. Every bag contained apples, oranges, grapes and cake. The committee had planned to make this the greatest because the number of inmates was greater. Rev. Quarles reported to the committee on November 4th that they would have to make a greater purchase. Sept. 10th reviewed the scene before serving and greatly praised the effort to the quality and quantity displayed. Committee: George Johnson, Joseph Lovings, Mrs. Mary Robinson, Mrs. Lue Twine, Mrs. Loctie Thornton, Secretary; Rev. F. W. Quarles Manager. MEMORIAL SERVICE HELD FOR MRS GEFRUDE L. WASHINGTON The memorial services of Mrs. Gertrude L. Washington, the wife of Deacon Armistead Washington, who departed this life on October 27th, 1977 at 10:40 A. M., at her residence 1109 North Fifth Street, were held at the Second Baptist Church Sunday, November 27th, 1927, at 10:40 A. M. Services were opened by Master of Exercises, Mr. W. G. Carier Superintendent of her Department, Song No. 339. "Will the Circle B. Unbroken" was sung. Dr. M. B. Jones gave a wonderful gist of the life of the deceased in the Sunday School. In his remarks he stated: "The Superintendent of the Junior Department Low, who has crossed the deep river, is now on camping ground. She was a faithful worker in this Sunday School, a servant in the Church and a servant of God. No task was too heavy for her when others refused the task. Where she lives, does God live!" Where I am there we may be also!" He closed with saying: "Let us emulate her example. She only walks on the other side." Miss Arule Jenkins rendered a touching solo: "Ne Burdens Yonder." Select Reading by Miss Sarah Fields. "The Teacher of the Dladem." Solo by Miss Dessie Toney. "No Night There." Mr. Charles McClalborne gave a wonderful talk on Mrs. Washington's life and her work in the Church and Sunday School as well as a Public School Teacher, a position she held for 20 years. A valuable woman is gone to her resting place. Mr. McClalborne led the school in singing hymn No. 234, "Sleep on Beloved." Lawyer James T. Carter gave a wonderful talk on the service of Mrs. Washington as well as other members who had gone before her. He referred to the portraits on the walls in the State Library and the Battle Abbey, of people who merited honor; also the portraits on the walls of our Sunday School. He said Mrs. Gerritude L. Washington has merited a place with the others that have passed and gone, for her portrait on the walls of our Sunday School. Hymn No. 285, "Shall We Meet Beyond the River" was sung by the school.

Clarke Hampton's big Blue and White Seasiders and Union University's Pawning Panthers fought doggedly back and forth, up and down, now making a touchdown, now making a well-executed lateral pass, now thrilling the rooters, until the Big Blue and White eleven emerged head and shoulders above their adversaries by a score of 12-7 in the annual Thanksgiving game. One of the largest holiday crowds that has ever gathered for the event that brings Hampton and Union together attended the game on Hovey Field. Hampton's victory was well won, as the game from start to finish was close, exciting, thrilling and clean. UNION'S FOURSOME RAN RIOT Union's Panther foursome in the backfield, composed of quarterback Freaux, halfbacks Washington and Robbins, and fullback Moton, ran riot through Hampton's defense, especially on the well-executed lateral passes during the third quarter. The Panther eleven came back to the field in the beginning of the second half with six points against them but their determination helped Moton, their sturdy fullback to drive through Hampton's line for the tying touchdown and again for the extra point. The Panther's energy was well spent and she could then offer only passive resistance to the powerful drives of Pug Jones, Bulldog Williams, Du Baker and Wildman Lee. THE BIG BLUE AND WHITE MACHINE. Of Hampton's big Blue and White machine it may be said that she won a brilliant victory. Francis Baker of Phoebus kicked the Sealiders into a position for a score. Williams, Jones and Baker made alternate line thrusts that could not be stopped by Union's front wall. The ball was given to Oscar Jones, the former Minnesota back on the six-yard line and he hit off-tackle for a clean touchdown. The second and winning touchdown came in the fourth quarter after Union had made seven points to Hampton's six. HAMPTON SCORES AGAIN. Baker again kicked the ball thru an exchange of punts into a position to score. The grand march was begun again with Capt. Williams, Baker and Jones bearing the heaviest of the burden. Jones received an injury on his ankle so Wildman Lee was called to the backfield to make the final plunge for the touchdown. Wildman's huge rocking form carried the ball over through right tackle. Union's line held for a while but gave way under the strain. The rest of the quarter Union resorted to passes in an effort to win the game, but her efforts were in vain. A FAST, CLEAN, EXCITING GAME The game as a whole was fast clean and exeiting. Breaux, Union's A.I.C. I. A. A. quar'erback again and again brought the crowd to its feet with his fast end sweeps. His fellow backs were also flee-footed. Washington was a hard hitter and unusually hard to stop once he got going. On the line Arthur Ruffin Coach Ruffin's brother, and Red Anderson were the shining lights that made Union look as if she might be the winner of the hard-fought struggle. Hampton's defense was unusually good against the fast backs of Union. The lateral pass that was tried a number of times was unduly tricky and had to be watched. Hill in gear had to end.

RUN BY THE PEOPLE FOR THE PEOPLE Phone Mad.2793 Jerry and Her Baby Grands, herdred as one of the greatest novelties on the American boards, will headline the elaborate program arranged next week for the new Mosque, Laurel and Malin Streets, introducing a policy of even better entertainment than that already presented at this theatre, warranted according to announcement by the management by reason of the large patronage. Many requests have been received by Harry, Bernstein general manager for more of the feature stage presentations given by the Mosque and the enlarged program is the result. Jetta Goudal will be featured on the screen in her latest and probably most effective vehicle, "The Forbidden Woman," described as a gripping story of the love of two brothers for a woman, with a back ground of war. It is a powerful, impressive drama, "The Forbidden Woman" will be offered Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, with several supplemental features. The array of stage attractions the first half of the week will include the piquant Gypsy Byrne, as girl master of ceremonies, an oddity in this field; Hal Beck and Lady Friend in a smart sketch of comedy and songs; the Hickville Comedy Quartet, a number said to be distinctly removed from the average, and Massey and Deitrich, dancers of grace and charm. Jerry and Her Baby Grands, presenting a group piano concert with a program, ranging from the semi-classic to the newest popular numbers, will continue throughout the week, changing the musical selections in entirely on Thursday. The stage presentations the last three days of the week will embrace such features as Foster, Fagan and Cox, in what is described as hilarious comedy and delightful farce; Corlena Diamond, skillful harpist and nimble dancer in an act genuinely unique; Carlo $ ^{1} $ and Norman, adagio dancers in a spectacular number, and Hattle Althoff and Company, a musical comedy favorite in a handsome setting. Clara Bow, in what many critics have acclaimed her most sensational success, "Wine," will be featured on the screen Thursday, Friday and Saturday. "Wine" is a vivid romance of gay night life, admirably done and lavishly portrayed. Mrs. E. K. Barbee and her son Atlas, Jr., accompanied by their parents, Mr. and Mrs. L, L. King and Mr. Theodore Page motored here from Durham, N. C. They had no trouble whatever and reported a fine trip coming and going.

NEW SCIENCE OF SHOE READING TELLS the CONDITION of YOUR FEET Clocks Invitation to Efficiency In Towering Chicago Skyscraper -BIG BELLS- STRAUS BUILDING, CHICAGO RWO From the appearance of the shoes worn by the thousands who pass down a busy city thoroughfare it is possible to point out defects in the unseen feet of their wears, and often to predicate with surprising accuracy the nature of those defects. This was demonstrated recently by Dr. Wm. M. Scoll of Chicago, famous authority on the human foot, who recently pointed out to a group of experts defects in the feet of the passing crowds. One of the observers who had not yet grasped the method of deduction, suggested that Dr. Scholl had X-ray eyes and was able to see through the leather of the shoes. "No. indeed. It's usually plain as day," he said. "The weight of the body passing through a defective foot and, often, through a foot which reveals its weakness only when pressure is imposed upon it, will result in abnormalities in the shoe, uneven wear, stretching of the leather or both. Very often one can fairly recognize the nature of the allusion. One Clocks Invitation to In Towering - BIG BELLOW CHICAGO—How would you like to work to a perpetual symphony of tucks and peals?

What we see today is repeated all over the country. On any busy street in this country you can see hundreds of men, women and children with coif-ra evidence of foot troubles, women especially with turner needs, women countering the tread, wrinkled and stressed camps widened and protruding bunion joints and crooked and worn down needs. "The trouble is not a shoe trouble but a definite foot trouble which sometimes is due to weakness or organic disease out more often to abuse of the foot." continued Dr. Schou. "Many a man has impaired the shoe salesman for the one appearance of his shoes when the cause is own-own impaired. When you own man impaired along with a protrusion of the shoe at the toe joint and with the sole worn down on side, you recognize an enlarged DISTORTION BEGINNING IN SHOE AT RIGHT bunion joint and else that there is weakness of the metatarsal arch across the forepart of the foot. This weakness has shifted pressure of the body weight so that the inner border of the sole has worn down. You can ordinarily tell a man with that foot as far as you can see him walk in the crowd, a half a block away or and as he some newer appearance of a confirmed appearance of the shoe. The arch of the shoe is broken the curvature at the inster has gone and if it were not for the heat the shoe would be flat on the ground. The elastic springs can provided by the delicate great arch of the human foot is not apparent High Arch Shows Good Ancestry As a rule the active nist-step alert races of the world are apt to have high arched feet. Generally there is an association between a finely formed body and a good mind. The Greek works of sculpture invariably show strong supple high arched feet. The Greeks were as proud of their feet as of the graceful contour of the nanda, or the beauty of the face. But the retrograding backsliding races of the world who have contributed little to climatization and to climate change almost invariably show narrowen feet. The savages of the dingo for instance show flat feet. "Ah here comes a woman with an advanced case of weak srches," exclaimed Dr. Scholz to the writer. "How can she be so weak? How can the slugs of the srches be so weak?" CORRECT WALKING FEET STRAIGHT AHEAD across the ball of the foot now the shank is flattened down and now the vamp spreads over the sole on the outside. The weakness of the arch is pronounced and the foot has started to descend toward the ground. The enlarged and notting ankle joint of the right foot. The weight of the body passing through the delicate structure of the human foot soon distorts the foot and hence the shoe when pronounced weakness of the arch develops. Metatarsal Arch Is Delicate The metatarsal arch is the delicate arch in the forepart of the foot. It is revealed as a dome-like contour on the under side of the foot extending crosswise between the bases of the great toe and little toe. When it has been weakened or strained by some abuse such as high heeled and narrow toed shoes which press the bones down and forward the foot spreads and forces the uppers of the shoe out above the sole. A weak or fallen arch will distort the shoe. When the foot structure has become thus weakened the arch can be restored to its normal contours by surgical plates or arch supports individually adjusted to the foot. Perfect Feet Are More "Not one per cent of the people have comparatively perfect feet and no two human feet are alike. For 1. 2. 1. Bunion—weakness of metatarsal arch, foot, not bad condition. 2.

"Look at this man. You will see the other in botulism over the neck of the shoes—the counters are flattened, that is due to the weakness of the longitudinal arch no doubt. The orest of the heel has been worn oocause his weight no longer falls squirally on it. When the ankle tips inward and we have marked promotion you can look for run-over decks, crowded counters and twisted upwards. When a part of the foot is sensitive to sure people seek to relieve the pain by placing the weight elsewhere on the foot. This results in the uneven distribution of the weight and this part of the shoe on which the good weight falls will suffer greater an on coming into contact with the ground. You can tell almost as easily from the inside of a shoe as an from the outside, sometimes even continued Dr. Scholl. An awkened arch is plainly perceived by the inner sole if depressed into the center of the lower arch or ball of the foot.

The occupation of Olen, I have not heard. They may be passing as American Negro or as Indians. Cur father was Cherokee, and our mother a Black Hawk Indian. Charlie, the senior, was born in Hot Spring, North Carolina, and Olen in lead Town, Tennessee. Their ages are about 31 and 29 years, respectively. I have not heard from these two boys for the past fifteen years. The only description that I can give is of Charlie, who has a scar over his left eye. This was done by a rough stone which I threw at him when we were playing when still children. The best of my recollection is the scar looks like a spidei.

Those who have taken a cruise to the Mediterranean on the Empress of Scotland, which leaves the New York again Feb. 4, 1928, see the art of Greece, Italy and Egypt, and the "glory that was Greece and the grandeur that was Rome" as well as the Holy Land, cradle of Christianity.

Each child should have half a chance, and gets it, no matter what his father may do, when his mother does not smoke or drink strong alcohol before he is born. Hans Lageneth, who died at eighty-two with a beard seventeen feet long had claimed the world's long beard championship. He did something better than anybody else, yet no one made "a beaten path to his door" on this earth. However, when Gabriel calls us all, his beard, longer than any body's, will probably attract attention and amaze the beardless angels. Generally speaking, we are properous, those willing to work get along. But Mr. Hildegar Wyias did not find it so. She struggled for five years with four children, feeding clothing, paying rent, washing, cooking and working as a "garment presser" for $25 a week. She scorched one expensive dress. That took a week's pay. Each month the rent took a week's pay. Prosperous America was not prosperous enough for Mrs. Wyias. She broke the gas meter, opened all the jets, then knelt by the bed where her five-year-old son was sleeping, her three little girls asleep nearby. All were dead, when found, with no more rent or food bills to pay. There is still room at the BOTTOM for those that would make conditions better. Birth control and publishing information about it are approved by Britain's "National Council of Public Morals." Theoretically women should have the right to decide how many children they will have. But it is well that understanding of birth control has been postponed. It might have prevented the arrival of Napoleon and Carryle, and surely would have prevented the arrival of Caruso, a nineteenth child. Mrs. Peabody, head of the Women's Committee for Law Enforcement, says "ten million women are not only talking and praying, but working to retain prohibition, and see that it is enforced." They need not work or pray to keep prohibition in the Constitution; nothing can get it out. As for enforcement, there is room for much working and praying in that direction. anean, Cradle of C ports of call, 18 days in Palestine and Egypt—a liberal education!

Here it is in the two-piece style which everyone likes so well—the blouse of a rich metal cloth or lace and the skirt of transparent velvet which is also used for the V-neck that ties itself into a smart bow. Gold or silver brocade with black velvet is the most popular combination. May be obtained in sizes 16 to 44.

"When the ankle tips inward and we have marked pronation, you can look for run-over heels, crooked counters, and twisted uppers. When a part of the foot is sensitive to pressure people seek to relieve the pain by placing the weight elsewhere on the foot. This works the unnaturally distribution of the weight and that part of the shoe on which the most weight falls will suffer greater wear on coming into contact with the ground."
