THE RICHMOND PLANET VIRGINIA JUN 9 1920 STATE LIBRARY Virginia State Library. Edw. Wright Charged with Murder Uses Shot Gun and Ends James Valentine's Life. Was Firing at Another Man-Took Pint of Whisky VOLUME XLV, NO. 31 Edw. W Uses Shot Was Firing at A (Special by John Mitchell, Jr.) Eddie Wright was in the Police Court, Thursday, May 31st, 1928, charged with unlawfully and feloniously shooting with a shotgun James Valentine and Phyllis Roberts. The witnesses were C. E. Parker, I. G. Cousins, B. C. Leber, F. H. Kemmerer, C. C. Addleton, William Schools, Edward Dennis, Phyllis Roberts and James Valentine. Later this charge was changed to first degree murder, after the death of James Valentine. The following will explain itself: Teatimeny Before Conorner. On last Wednesday a visit was made to the city jail. Eddie Wright came to the barred enclosure and made the following statement: I bought a pint of whiskey from a boy named Whit, who was selling for Jake Robinson. I told him I would pay him Thursday, that day being Wednesday. He went and got Jake Robinson. Jake came back and told me to pay him $1.00 for the pint. I told him I would pay him Thursday. He took me out and under a pistol, which he held, he had the boy beat me. Got a Gun. I went home and got a gun and came back. Jake and his wife were sitting on the porch. I She said, yonder he comes. He pulled out a pistol. She jumped up and I fired, some of the load striking her. Jake went through the front door and came out the back way with a pinch in his hand. He then again, as a shocker the boy came out from behind the house behind him and being taller than Jake, he caught the load right in his neck. Wife and Children. I have a wife and two children and am employed by Mr. E. O. Lenz at the club. This ended the interview. Wright is entered up as being 35 years of age. The boy shot had nothing whatever to do with the affair. Coroner James M. Whitfield held an inquest June 2nd, in the City Hall, over the body of James Valentine. Jake Roberts said, "I live at 902 N. Thirty-first Street, in this city. James Valentine was shot by Eddie Wright on May 30, 1928, about 5 P. M., at 902 N. Thirty-first Street. Wright came to my house and asked change for a dollar. I gave him two 50 cent pieces, and he jumped in his automobile and drove away without giving me the dollar bill he had in his hand. Later on in the afternoon I saw him with four of his friends at Thirty-second and Q Streets. I asked him for my money and he refused and said he would not give me anything. "I hit him and he threw the money toward me and said, 'There is the money,' as he fell. As he was getting up, he put his right hand under his coat. I thought he was going to draw a pistol and his four friends started toward me. I pulled out my pistol. His friends went back to the automobile and Wright got up, did not pull out his pistol and went to the automobile. "He said, 'Never mind, I will get you', and the friends said, 'That's damn right, we'll get you.' They drove away. Wright and his friends and I went home. Whit Terry, James Valentine, Phyllis (my wife), and I were sitting on the front porch, I went back into the kitchen and while in there heard a shot. I heard my wife scream and run next door to my mother's house, and heard a second shot. When I came out of her house, Eddie Wright shot at me. My wife was shot and told me that "Heatith" shot her. This is Eddie Wright's nick-name. May Roberts told me that they had shot James Valentine." Whit Terry said, "I live at 1210 North Thirty-first Street. 'Heatith' Rev. F. W. Williams, D. D.

The automobile in which was 'Heatith' came from P Street in front of 902 N. Thirty-first Street, and then 'Heatith' shot Valentine. I ran and heard a second shot and Phyllis Roberts screamed, I heard a third shot. I do not know who fired the second and third shots, I saw two men in the automobile have guns." Rev. F. W. W.

D., after a long delay called Rev. F. W. Williams, D. D., to the pulp, and the work of formally installing him began last Sunday morning at 11:30 o'clock. The edifice presented a brilliant scene with the large number of people present to witness the exercises. The rostrum was decorated with a profusion of palms, ferns, and flowers, while numerous canaries warbled their notes as the services were being conducted. Opening Exercises.

McCall, while prayer was offered by Rev. W. E. Brown. Master of Ceremonies, A. W. Holmes, had carefully prepared his part and he gave a highly interesting history of the church. Rev. W. T. Johnson, D. D., the able pastor of the First Baptist Church, delivered the sermon. On the rostrum were Rev. E. F. Brown, Rev. J. L. Collins, Rev. F. W. Williams and Rev. C. A. Motley. Review of Work. Rev. Dr. Johnson then reviewed the review of the Rev. Dr. Williams. He had been pastor of the Rising Mt. Zion Baptist Church, of Richmond, the Queen St. Baptist Church of Norfolk, Va., the Rodman Street Baptist Church of Pittsburgh, Pa., which pastorate he resigned to accept the pastorate of the Fourth Baptist Church. He resigned the position of Moderator of the Baptist General Association to go to Pittsburgh. He then announced that he had a long text, but it meant a short sermon. It was taken from Matt. 28:18, 19, 20. His subject was, "Our Lord's Glorious Commission." "And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, 'All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.' Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world." Meaning of Commission. A commission, as we understand it in ordinary language, is the authority to perform certain deeds, to represent corporations, governments and the like. Rev. Dr. Johnson explained the power and authority of various commissions, showing that certain commissions carry more weight for the reason that it may represent more power. The commission of the text is supreme to all others because it is a com- RICHMOND VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JUNE 9, 1928 UNION LEVEL NOTES At 11:30 Rev. Edwin Charity preached in the morning and at 8 P. M.

Our blessed Saviour always prepared the way for anything being done by any of his disciples. Rules Laid Down. He had a meeting and in this meeting. He laid down the rules. It is necessary to talk with the captains and go over matters. Many times people fail to perform their duties because they do not understand what is required of them. Running things rough-shod without holding meetings is not going to meet with the approval of some people. This meeting was to strain his love for his disciples. This was the greatest meeting ever held. This conference was necessary to strengthen their faith and to encourage them to worship. In order to strengthen them, he had to have a meeting. It was necessary to have this conference to convince the doubters of his reality. Thomas was one of the doubters. He doubted the fact that Christ had risen from the dead. The Band of Doubters. Now, just as there are doubters in a little band of twelve, there will be doubters in a big band of 1,800 like you've got. It will be necessary to have meetings to convince doubters. I don't want to make any fuss here, but if preaching the truth will make a fuss, let's have it. Having made the statement and held the conference, He gave to them the great commission, "Go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son and of the Holy Ghost." This commission is divided in two parts, the missionary and the pastoral. Our brother here has been carrying the missionary end of it. He has been going. The Necessary Result. The necessary result of going is to make disciples. When we read of the results of his disciples' work we are pleased. When we notice the result of this servant of God's work here, we find that he has been building the world and securing converts. Now, the pastoral end of it: what was that? Teach them all things that which I have commanded. Keep your eyes open, where even you can give a word of warning, drop it in. Wherever you can teach them caution, drop that in. He must advise you in your method of living. This is the pastoral end of the great commission. Must Have Weight. Such a commission must have great weight. When Christ gave the commission to his disciples, it awakened a great feeling in their hearts. Why should the Lord put such a tremendous responsibility upon them? The disciples wanted (Continued on Page 5.) THOUGHT LYNCHED LATER RETURNED ALIVE AND WELL Taken From Georgia Jail By Mob on May 14th, But Released Practically Unhurt—Mystery Cleared Up. Atlanta, Ga., May 30.—Georgia's record for 1928 is still clear of lynching, according to a statement from the Commission on Interracial Co-operation, after looking thoroughly into the abduction from jail and supposed lynching of Henry Hood at Gainesville, Ga., on the night of May 14th. A careful investigation of the case just made by a representative of the Commission revealed the fact that Hood was not lynched nor even severely handled, but was released by the mob, later returned unhurt to his home in Gainesville for a brief visit, and then left for a distant city. One element of the mob, Hood reported, desired to handle him roughly, but another insisted upon his release and finally prevailed. This information, picked up in fragmentary form from various sources, was fully confirmed by the fugitive's mother. Hood; who was confined in the city jail after an alteration with a white man, was taken from the lock-up at 2 o'clock in the morning while all members of the night police force were absent on their beats. As a result, the night chief of police, who was held responsible for his safe keeping, has been dismissed by the city manager on the charge of inefficiency. Members of the city government and leading citizens deplore the incident deeply and expressed great relief when it became definitely known that Hood was alive. DR. MARTIN COMING BACK TO RICHMOND The Rev. Dr. J. H. Martin, pastor of the St. James Baptist Church, Rocky Mount, N. C., will conduct a ten-day meeting, beginning Sunday, June 10th, at the Sixth Street Baptist Church, Sixth and Clay Streets, of which the Rev. Joseph Arrington is pastor. Dr. Martin conducted a ten-day meeting here in March, which proved to be one of the most successful ever held in this city. He has been pastor of the St. James Baptist Church for twenty-one years and is held in high esteem among the citizens of Rocky Mount, both white and black. The Richmond public is invited out to hear this able divine. Rev. Joseph Arrington, pastor. Mr. H. H. Quarles, clerk. Bay St. Louis, Miss., June 4.—In recognition of his successful stand against a mob bent on lynching two of his prisoners, former Sheriff Joseph V. Bontemps was honored by his fellow citizens here this morning by the presentation or a nanosome bronze medal, awarded by a committee of distinguished Southerners. The incident commemorated took place on April 17th of last year when two Negroes accused of killing a white man were threatened by a mob numbering 1,200. Sheriff Bontemps sent in a hurried call for troops and meantime with thirty-nine citizens whom he had deputized stood off the mob with shotguns and pistols. The medal, a handsome bronze depicting a heroic figure standing guard before the temple of justice, was supplied by the Southern Commission on Interracial Co-operation, and was awarded by a committee composed of Gov. John W. Martin, of Florida, Hon. Hugh M. Dorsey, of Georgia; Mrs. J. H. McCoy, of Alabama; Marshall Ballard, editor of the New Orleans Item, and George B. Dealey, editor of the Dallas News.

How- Shepherds St. Rally in B Industrial Fold, Improved Order Shepherds and Daughters of Bethlehem, celebrated its fourth anniversary Sunday, June 3, at Morning Star Baptist Church, Baltimore, Md. The Grand Shepherd and the Grand Secretary were absent due to previously arranged engagement. Deputy Susie J. Williams, of Richmond, was with them in this meeting and represented the Home Office. The members of the Fold were out in large number and made a fine showing. The ladies were attired in white with the green sashes and arm bands trimmed in gold. The church was filled to an overflow. The following program was rendered to the delight of all present: Devotionals were conducted by Chaplain Dt. May Lane. Welcome address was delivered by Shepherd Chas. G. Boyd. The ring of sincerity and generosity carried home to the hearts of Shepherds and visitors this address. It was ably responded to by Deputy Susie J. William, The Love Knot chorus electrified the audience with one of its famous selections. At this point, Deputy Susie J. Williams was called upon to stand in the shoes of the Grand Presiding Shepherd, Mrs. Ora B. Stokes.

Shepherd A. D. Daly was booked for a solo at this point, but due to other pressing engagements, he was absent. They tell me that everything works together for good for those who love the Lord. A sweet and soothing solo was rendered by Dt. Iola Branch, the financial secretary. The offering was lifted by Deputy Susie J. Williams and Dt. Mary Minor, the offering was a credit to the occasion. Shepherd Robert Morse, master of ceremonies, presented Rev. G. J. Garnett, who delivered a wonderful sermon. Every one was delighted with this brilliant discourse. Shepherd Arthur Branch completely captivated the audience with a solo. The occasion was a huge success and reflected great credit on Daughter Mary Minor and Deputy Benj. Jones, who had charge of arranging for this wonderful meeting. The reason Deputy Susie J. Williams appeared so many times on the program was due to the fact that a number of Shephards from Richmond were scheduled to appear on the program, and she was called upon to represent all of them. This was a big task but she was equal to the occasion. (Continued on page 4. PRICE, FIVE CENTS. arvey to Death. er Knife to ct. morning Tragedy. (Special by John Mitchell, Jr.) A short, plethoric, sandy-haired, bright-skin woman was in the Police Court Friday, June 1, 1928. She spoke to me through the iron grating, asking if I could secure some, one to go her bond and secure her release. An officer remarked that she was charged with cutting her husband and the wounds were so serious that it was doubtful that he could survive. I told her that this being the case she could not expect to be bailed until the extent of the wounds could be determined and his chances to live definitely settled. A look at the record disclosed this information: Ruby Brown, C. 34 Dom., 408 E. Duval Street. On warrant did unlawfully and feloniously assault and wound with a butcher knife, Harvey Brown, her husband. Witnesses: Harvey Brown, T. H. Wilcox, I. G. Cousins, C. C. Eddleton, C. G. Edwards, W. B. Burroughs. On June 4th, another warrant appeared on the records, charging Ruby Brown with unlawfully and feloniously and of malice aforethought "did kill and murder Harvey Brown". Coroner James M. Whitfield stated that one wound was in the middle of the outside of the left arm and the other one was in the abdomen to the left of the navel. He had been stabbed with a long bladed knife, which went through a large intestine and cut the gall bladder. Another visit to the city jail last Wednesday morning found Ruby Brown sitting beside the iron grating. She said she was feeling fine and later she declined to talk, saying that she was nervous. As she would not talk, I proceeded to read to her the record from the court saying that anything she wished to say would be given to the public in her favor. When I read that her age was placed at 34 years, she became embarrassed and found out that she could talk. She wanted to know if I thought she looked as though she was 34 years of age. I declined to express an opinion, contenting myself with saying that few women ever got to be more than 18 years of age. She declined to say whether or not she had any children. She did not know the exact number of her residence as she had not been living there very long. I was later informed that her home is in Farmville, Va., where she has two children. It is reported that between 3 and 4 o'clock in the morning, other tenants heard loud voices down there and shortly afterwards Brown had been cut. When first approached in the Police Court, she stated that her husband was drunk and this caused the trouble. It is becoming apparent why Ruby Brown would not talk. The warrant specifies Harvey Brown as her husband. It is being stated that Brown was not her husband. She is said to hail from Farmville, Va., where she has a living husband and two children. Ruby Brown's maiden name was Ruby Wesley. She was born in Farmville, where her relatives now live. She was not married to Harvey Brown.

The seventy strong-hearted pioneers aboard surveyed the vast stretches of prairie, and soon began the task of dragging logs to the river banks from a forest, miles away, there being no horses or oxen for the work.

DAY PHONE, RAN. 4908 American capital, prompted by the marked aeronautical progress of recent years is beginning to take an awakened interest in commercial aviation, according to the Union Trust Company, Cleveland. "Commercial aviation received its greatest boost when the government turned over the airmail routes to private operators," says the bank in its magazine Trade Winds. "The spectacular feats of Lindbergh, Bennett, Byrd, Chamberlain and others who have tended to hasten the day when Americans may be considered unminded." Average rates at which airmail is carried in most cases are yielding profits. Another factor is the growing recognition of commercial aviation as an aid to 'big business' through the quick transport of important mail, of parts of expensive machinery, and of passengers. "Americans are not yet as accustomed to air travel as are Europeans, yet in 1927 official figures for air travel in the United States show that America, the world. A THRE total of 6,000,000 aeroplane miles were flown in this country, against 5,700,000 miles in Germany, 3,350,000 miles in France, 2,000,000 miles in Great Britain and 800,000 miles in Holland. "Total commercial aviation flying in this country in 1927 in addition to that on regular routes was 8,000,000 miles. This was a gain of 32 per cent over 1928. The number of planes produced in 1927 was 2,353, or more than double the total for the preceding year. "The crying need of the industry is for more landing fields. Well-equipped fields are to aviation what good roads are to the automobile. Municipalities are catching the spirit of this need and at the end of 1928 there were 100,000 planes under way which would bring the total up to 1,000 in 1928. "While commercial aviation is expanding rapidly it will not be a material part of everyday life until it, carries the bulk of our long distance mail, has become a definite factor in express transportation, and until passengers use it naturally to 'bring distant cities closer to each other." 300 LE VENET Published Every Saturday by John Miskell, 12 12 El North Fourth Street, Richmond, Pa. all communications intended for publication should be sent to us by Wednesday.

AN ASTOUNDING DECISION The five to four decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in the wire tapping case has resulted in one of the most remarkable judicial squabbles ever known in these United States. The open condemnation of one part of the court, seemingly moved by political considerations by the other will be in the nature of a precedent, which has been precipitated by repeated decisions by this August tribunal, which decisions have been widely at variance with the expressive and impressive declarations of the Constitution itself. The facts are told as follows: "Justice Brandeis, in his scathing rebuke to 'wire-tapping' described it as a resort to a crime 'to detect a crime,' and said: "The evil incident to invasion of the privacy of the telephone is far greater than that involved in tampering with the mails." The Taft opinion was rendered in two cases arising in the Western district of the State of Washington, where Roy Olmstead, Charles S. Green and others were convicted of conspiracy to violate the Federal dry law, largely by evidence obtained by wire-tapping. They had sold about $2,000,000 of liquor a year. The accused urged that evidence by wire-tapping was in violation of the constitutional provisions against 'unreasonable search and seizure.' The Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the conviction of the trial court. These judgments were upheld in the Taft opinion today. Then follows the report of the minority: Justice Brandeis in his dissent said: "Before any of the persons now charged had been arrested or indicted, the telephones by means of which they habitually communicated with one another and with others, had been tapped by Federal officers. To this end, a lineman of long experience in wire-tapping was employed on behalf of the government and at its expense. He tapped eight telephones, some in the homes of the persons charged, in their offi "Acting on behalf of the Government and in their official capacity, at least six other prohibition agents distressed over the tapped wires and reported the messages taken. Their operations extended over a period of nearly five months. The Government makes no attempt to defend the methods employed by its officers. Indeed, it conceded that if wire tapping can be deemed a search and seizure within the Fourth Amendment, such wiretapping as was practiced in the case at bar was an unreasonable search and seizure, and that the evidence thus obtained was indimissible. "But it relies on the language of the amendment and it claims that the protection given thereby cannot properly be held to include a telephone conversation." Assailuing the doctrine that such methods can properly be employed, Justice Brandeis said time works changes, and new conditions arise which did not obtain when the Con sition and the Fourth and Fifth Amendments were adopted. He went on: "Subtler and more far-reaching means of invading privacy have become available to the Government. Discovery and invention have made it possible for the Government, by means more effective than stretching upon the rack, to obtain disclosure in court of what is whispered in the closet." "The progress of science," he declared, "in furnishing the Government with means of espionage is not likely to ston with wire-tapping. "Ways may some day be developed by which the Government, without removing papers from secret drawers can reproduce them in court and by which it will be enabled to expose to a jury the most intimate occurrences of the home. Advances in the psychic and related sciences may bring means of evolving unexpressed beliefs, thoughts and emotions. That places the liberty of every man in the hands of every petty officer,' was said by James Otter of much lesser intrusions than these. * * * "Can it be that the Constitution affords no protection against such invasions of individual security?" Justice Brandeis said the answer was to be found in the decision in Boyd vs. United States. "a case that will be remembered as long as civil Liberty lives in the United States." "The evil incident to invasion of the privacy of the telephone," Justice Brandeis held, "is far greater than that involved in tampering with the mails. As a means of espionage, writes of assistance and general warrants are but piny instruments of tyranny and oppression when compared with wire-tapping." "The greatest dangers to liberty," he added, "lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, wellmeaning, but without understanding." Justice Holmes, after saying that Justice Brandeis had exhaustively covered the case, added: "It is desirable that criminals should be detected, and to that end all available evidence should be used. It also is desirable that the Government should not itself foster and pay for other crimes, when they are the means by which the evidence is to be obtained." "It if pays the officers for having got evidence by crime I do not see why it may not as well pay them for getting it in the same way, and I can attach no importance to protestations of disapproval if it knowingly accepts and pays and announces that in future it will pay for the fruits. We have to choose, and for my part I think it a less evil than some criminals should escape than that the Government should play an ignoble part." In his dissent Justice Butler contended: "This Court has always construed the Constitution in the light of the principles upon which it was founded. The direct operation or literal meaning of the words used do not measure the purpose or scope of its provisions." In his terse dissent Justice Stone said: "I concur in the opinions of Mr. Justice Holmes and Mr. Justice Brandeis. I agree also with that of Mr. Justice Butler so far as it dea s with the merits." We have no doubt that Chief Justice William Howard Taft will yet live long enough to rue the day that he wrote that opinion and urged his associates to join with him in upsetting one of the most sacred rights conferred upon American citizens by that beacon star, the light-house of hope, the fundamental rock upon which the Republic was foundod and is supposed to be as sacred in legislative matters as is the Word of God in sacred precepts—the Constitution of the United States. But then he acted according to his conscientious belief and we must accept the statement at its face value. O, the pity of it! Colored leaders from the Southland fared fairly well at the sessions of the Republican National Committee, which has been in session at the Kansas City headquarters of that body. Hon. Benjamin J. Davis, of Georgia, "kept the saddle," so to speak, in his section, while Hon. Perry W. Howard came off with "flying colors" in Mississippi. Hon. Robert Church won out in Tennessee, while Hon. Walter L. Cohen was "floored" in Louisiana by his "Lily-white" antagonists. They had recently entered the Republican Party by the "back door," so to speak. As Cohen is a "fighter from 'way back,' he will be heard from again before the Convention is over. He should be seated if only with a half vote. The present outlook for both Kansas City, Mo., and Houston, Texas, seems to be that Hon. Herbert Hoover, of California, will lead the Republican hosts and Hon. Alfred E. Smith, of New York, will "shy his castor in the ring" for the Democratic multitudes. Shepherds Stage a Great Meet (Continued from page 4) Interest in the 18th annual sermon is increasing hourly. Beyond a shadow of a doubt this promises to be the biggest affair of this kind ever staged by our Order. The parade will make up at Shepherd's headquarters, 512 E. Leigh St. It will move promptly at 2:15 P. M., as follows: West on Leigh to Graham on Clay on Clay on Clay on Harrison, south on Harrison to Floyd Ave., west on Floyd Avenue to Brunswick street, south on Brunswick street to Main street, west on Main to Randolph, south on Randolph Grooved Avenue. The folds should have their banners in the parade in order that they may be identified. A great meeting of the Shepherd's excursion committee was held on the 5th inst. at Shepherd's' headquarters. Much interest and enthusiasm was manifested by the representatives from the Folds and companies of the uniform department promoting the excursion. This is going to be the excursion of the season. You had better wait and go with us. We failed to mention the fact that members of Pride of Croaker contributed a chicken and cake to the ten nights bazaar which was held at the Shepherd's' headquarters in the month of May. The members making this contribution are namely: Deputy Frances J. Dias reported a new juvenile for James City County. Pride of Croaker and Blooming Dale are planning a big day on the 3rd Sunday in June. They are expecting to have the Shepherd's' Band with them. Emporia Fold is arranging a fine program for the 3rd Sunday in June. Grand Shepherd Ora Brown Stokes, Secretary A. C. Clark and others will appear on this program. Deputy Harrison Robinson, of Fauquier county, is planning a big day for the Folds of that county on the second Sunday. Deputy Susie J. Williams will be with him on that day and will represent the Grand Shepherd. THE RICHMOND PLANET. RICHMOND' VIRGINIA A peculiar case was called in the Police Court, May 31st, when Mat Harris, 208 N. 19th St., was arraigned with Bertha Logan upon the charge of storing ardent spirits. Harris explained that a man named Ray Wood had passed the package to him to keep until he came back and he was unaware of its contents. His employer, a Mr. Cauthorn, who evidently stood 6 feet appeared in Harris' behalf saying that he was a straightforward, honest man and had been employed by him for 30 years. Judge John L. Ingram was evidently affected by the story and seemed to believe that the colored man might be the victim of circumstances. He said he would send the case on to the Hustings Court as the judge up there could exercise discretion in the matter in a way that under the law, he could not. Then came the question of that $500.00 bond. The white employer hesitated a moment only and then he said that he would go on Mat Harris' bond. This done, there stood the woman, Bertha Logan, who would go to jail to await the action of the grand jury, Mr. Cauthorn looked at her. "I'll go on her bond, too." The aftermath to the case came on Monday, June 4, when Mat Harris and his employer and friend appeared in the Police Court again. This time, they had Ray Wood, the colored man, who had left the bundle with him. It is needless to say that this settled the matter so far as Mat Harris and Bertha Logan are concerned. OTHER WARRANTIES. A warrant has been served on Michael Lewis, who is now confined in the city jail upon a charge of burglary and who was seriously wounded. The case was on the docket of the Police Court Friday, May 25th. He is charged with being a fugitive from justice, from Greensboro, N. C., where he is charged with burglary. The witnesses named are R. B. Sterling and G. Z. Parker.

MOB FURY RENEWED TWO NEGROES DEAD Brothers of Officer's Slayer Lynched in Louisiana. Boyce, La., June 2—Mob fury aroused three weeks ago with the slaying of Deputy Sheriff J. Frank Phillips by William Blackman, Negro, who in turn was slain by a squad of officers accompanying Phillips, broke loose anew today, resulting in Lee and Dave, brothers of Blackman, being seized from the custody of Rapides Parish officers and their bodies riddled with bullets. The lynching occurred five miles from here as the Negroes were en route to Shreveport for safe keeping. They had been in custody in the Vernon Parish jail at Leesville since the slaying of the deputy as a precaution against violence, threats of which had been made against all members of the Blackman family. Negroes Leah Anticipating that the Leesville jail would be stormed, Sheriff Turner, of Vernon Parish, yesterday requested Sheriff Downs to send for his prisoners and move them to a safer place. Three Rapides officers immediately were dispatched to Leesville and left with the Blackman brothers for Shreveport shortly afterward. The deputies reported to Sheriff Downs today that as they neared Boyce, en route to Shreveport with their prisoners, the road was blocked by an automobile and their car was surrounded by more than a score of men who demanded custody of the prisoners. After taking the Negroes from the car, the deputies said they were told to drive on. They were less than 500 yards away when a volley of shots was fired into the Negroes' bodies. From Boyce, the deputies summoned Sheriff Downs and the coroner, both of whom announced a vigorous investigation into the case would be made. Search For Liquor. Deputy Phillips was a member of a squad sent to search the Blackman premises for liquor when he was slain. Hardly had William Blackman fired the fatal shot at the officer from the doorway of his residence before he was mortally wounded from shots fired by Phillips' fellow-officers. Mob violence was prevented at the time by Sheriff Downs spiring Lee and Dave Blackman to Leesville as an angry crowd assembled at the Blackman home. Their fury increased when they learned that --- Old Colony Market, Home Killed Meats Choice Cuts, Poultry Live and Dressed, Smithfield and Country Hams, New Refrigerating, 3-decker System just installed, Prompt Service The Lowest Prices consistent with First Class Service.

After waitup thirteen years and have not suffered from the horrible disease, travel, 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 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.

WILLIAMS the best places when they came unto Him. He tells us the burden upon us is to go out and conquer the world. He is not given a great long letter. How are we to go? He has not given us the means to go. How are we to go? We have no great political pull and how are we to accomplish it? Christ knows what contemplation is in your minds. Knew the Minds. He knows what is in the mind of Dr. F. W. Williams. He knows what is in the minds of His disciples. He said, you go. All power is entrusted in my hands in heaven and in earth. They looked up. They had no thought of that. Even their vision was extended, they said if He has all power, we are going. One in the van of the commission and the other in the rear. What is the meaning of van? It means in front. Io, I am with you always even to the end of the world. Look beyond all that is temporal to King Jesus. That is the commission of this servant, to get the Fourth Church to look away to heaven. Brethren, do you need a spiritual gift? Connect with the power of God on High. The power in heaven is to be the source of comfort to us. This is the representative of one, who has all power in heaven. He presents to the Father all petitions for those servants on earth. The one who presents them has power with God. He has power in heaven to present your petitions there. He presents the labors and sufferings of the people with power. The universal claim of Christ includes the power of all nature as well as the spiritual realm. Luke 8:25. And He said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this? for he commandeth even the winds and the water, and they obey him. The Water and the Wine: He dwelt upon the feast of Canaan, the turning of water into wine. Wonderful power! He has power over death. He called the son from death to life and He raised Lazarus from the dead. He stepped back, got orders from his Father and Lazarus stood up in the grave and came forth. This King commissioned you, my brother, has the power. He described the scene at the cross. He has power in all of our difficulties. He will make a way some way, somehow, if you will rely on him and believe that He has the power. The Nature of the Work. What was the work that Jesus was sending out? It was the work of evangelizing the world. They had already been encouraged to be strong. I am with you always even to the end of the world. It is our duty to preach a strong gospel. Isaiah asked about this saving gospel. He saw a great picture and in that picture, he saw some persons that he did not know. Who is This Is Your Last Chance. The Negro in the World War A detailed description may be found in another column. Here is the coupon : this? They wore dazzling costumes. I that speaketh in righteousness, mighty to save. Has Jesus ever introduced himself to you? The minister must go and preach. The Theme. What must be this theme? It must be Christ and Him crucified. If he preaches any other doctrine, it will not be a saving gospel. Feed the flock over which God has made us overseers. We must be spiritual watchmen. When we see the enemy coming, it is our duty to sound the alarm. Last, but not least he is to be a teacher. If you will carry out these thoughts and you come to the end of your career, it will be like the Apostle Paul, when he said, I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge shall give me at that day. The burning eloquence, impressive delivery of the speaker had made a profound impression on the revered Prayer was offered by the Reverend C. A. Moby, after which Mrs. Ella P. Carter sang with effective sweetness a solo. Mr. Samuel C. Jackson, of Norfolk, enthused the members by singing with telling effect, "Lift Him Up!"

The death of Dr. Noguchi, a continuous Japanese scientist, is a great loss to the world. Backed by the Rockefeller Institute, Noguchi was a leader in the war against disease, and poverty and misery born of disease. Yellow fever killed him at last, as he sought for more knowledge in the African yellow fever regions. Some bronze bandit on horseback should give his high place to Noguchi, whose memory really deserves honor. America is the country of opportunity, and Milwaukee is one of the best American cities. All over America are opportunities, visible to the majority when it is too late to seize them. What everybody knows is not so valuable. For instance, consider the busy carriage business that C. J. Smith managed in Milwaukee up to 1887. Fifty thousand dollars would have bought it. A. O. Smith inherited it and made bicycle parts. In 1904, the A. O. Smith Corporation was formed and L. R. Smith, grandson of C. J., took charge. His father put $85,000 and others put $95,000 more into the corporation. L. R. Smith did new things, making frames for automobiles, keeping up with the times, and ahead of them. Time passed, and in 1923 J. E. Uhlein advised this writer and other friends, "buy stock in the A. O. Smith Corporation. A very able man with new ideas, is running it." The stock sold then at $13 a share. A little later it sold at $25 a share, and five shares were given for one. The baby carriage business that you could have bought in 1887 for $50,000, or in 1923 for $1,300,000, now sells on the Stock Exchange at $40,000,000. The ablest American manufacturers could learn about mass production and labor saving in L. R. Smith's plants. One of his mills, making 35,000 automobile frames a week for Chevrolet, using marvelous automatic machinery, does with 200 men work that requires 2,000 men in other plants. One automatic machine, changing steel sheets into steel frames, is 350 feet long. In one place machinery and thirty-four men handle 14,000 side bars and 30,000 crossbars and drive 1,000,000 rivets per day. Machines do the work, men look on. From the floor below, heavy steel rivets are blown up through When Lady A When Lady Astor was at Emerald Lake a few years ago, she almost met a big black bear in the road—almost, because the scared bear loped into the woods and Lady Astor retreated so Emerald Lake Chalet without saying much except "Scat!" There was no further parliamentary discussion. the bear had scatted. So had Lady Astor. However, she was as safe as when in the House of Commons. The Emerald Lake black bears are not looking for trouble—all they want is scared. When Tom Wilson, veteran guide of the Canadian Pacific Rockies, discovered Lake Louise he named it Emerald Lake, because of its jade green color. Later when he discovered a lake even greener than Lake Louise, it was called Emerald Lake and the original Emerald Lake became the far-famed Lake Louise. Well past 70, still rides the trails around Banff and Lake Louise.

There you see solved the problem raised by inadequate immigration. You wonder that marvellously efficient long lasting automobiles can be sold at present prices, but remember, for one item, that painting an automobile frame, baking it so that it comes out with a beautiful coat of brilliant black enamel, costs, for human labor, one and a half cents, and the labor is highly paid, if any pay can be called high for labor producing such results. Mr. Smith's institution, revolutionizing important branches of American industry, is one of the many such plants throughout the nation. Our manufacturers, using their brains, relying on new methods, not on low wages, can undersell Europe and Asia. The thinking brain and the automatic machine are the real wealth producers. Weight has its advantages, Falatza to the contrary notwithstanding. Mrs. Huddleston, of Mattoon, Ill, has broken the world's record for long swimming. She swam fifty hours, hates being any other woman's record by an entire day, and beating the best masculine record by four hours. Mrs. Huddleston welched 240 pounds when she started, 20 pounds less when she finished. Skinny girls and women, you need not weigh 240, but you should be ashamed to cut down your vitality for the sake of an ugly, bony figure.

A VAST POTATO FIELD HEALTHY CHILDREN AND POTATOES CRITING IRISH POTATOES Ceylonese Use Foot Prints to Identify Criminals; Americans to Test Condition of the Foot LEFT-A FALLEN ARCH IN THE FIRST STREET OF FAIR FOOT RIGHT-A NORMAL ARCH TAKING THE PEDOGRAPH OF FOOT ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla.—It was back the early nineteen that a more handful of determined pioneers settled along the banks of the St. Johns River in the Southern section of St Johns County in what is now known as the Hastings district. They soon learned that the Irish potato was one of the most profitable crops. In 1902 the first crop of volume was produced and 40,000 barrels of early Irish potatoes were shipped to the markets of the North. They thought the market could not call for more. But they was soon exploited. In 1908 they shipped 556,000 barrels. In 1917 they shipped 556,000 barrels or 3,200 carloads. In 1925 they shipped d 650,000 carloads or 4,200 carloads. In the early stages of the game a price of $2.00 per 165-lb. barrel b. shipping point was considered excellent. With increased prices of labor and fertilizer, etc., they naturally brought better prices. In 1917 the first record prices were reached when growers received $10 per barrel b. f. 920 realized the greatest price of potatoes soared to $20 per barrel and hardy went below the entire season. Between four and five million dollars is given as an average for the increase has considerably increased during the past year. An excellent crop is forecast. Each year more pine land is cleared Ceylonese Use Foot LEFT - A FALLEN ARCH IN THE FIRST STAGES OF FLAT FOOT, RIGHT - A NORMAL ARCH BAREFOOT CEYLONESE LEAVES 4 RECORD 9 NEW YORK.—Dispatches from Colombo, Ceylon, allow the police of the great British island-dependency are using imprints of the foot to identify criminals. The move has facilitated police operations since the natives universally go barefooted. On capture of a suspect his foot imprints are compared with those in the police records and the foot is afforded by the whorls and lines of the foot which are different in each individual and, never change, is as positive as that afforded by finger prints found in the police files in most countries. The barefoot natives do not feel the sense of humiliation when asked to step on sensitized paper that the man who is finger printed at police headquarters feels. As foot prints at the scene of a crime are more frequent than finger prints, the Ceylonese police are aided by foot NICE SPUDS for Irish potatoes. The farmer begins to prepare his land for planting along in October and November. About one ton per acre of fertilizer is worked into the soil, and the potatoes are sown a month later. The average time to maturity is 90 to 110 days although some are harvested 70 days after planting. Thus the North gets its early Irish potatoes long before they mature there. About 5,000 negro field potatoes are employed. Special potato trains leave Hastings every month during the season, on the Florida East Coast Railway. Up to 45 barrels per acre is contained a good yield early as it is grown. There are 294 acres and 219 of the farmers own at the land and they farm. About 13,000 acres are in Irish potatoes in the whole region. After the potatoes are out Best Prints to Identify Cases of Americans to Test Cases TAKING THE PODGRAPH OF FOOT Right and upper ph impressions left on moist or dust surfaces which are photographed, enlarged and compared with the records in the police archives. Impressions of babies' feet are taken in some of the large maternity hospitals in this country to assure identification of babies. The foot impressions most ordinarily taken in this country are used to indicate weaknesses or deformities of the foot. Pedagogic impressions are made of the bare or stockinged foot with the whole weight of the body imposed upon the foot. The photograph above shows how impressions taken of the foot and a machine designed for the purpose by Dr. Wm. M. Scholl, noted foot hygienist and orthopedist of Chicago. In this machine a printing device of thin, sensitive, dental rubber, is automatically and evenly inked with a special ink, leaving a reproduction of the sole of the foot. The pressure ( ) corn and hay crops are grown on the same land; cow peas and velvet beans often follow. There are still those sands of acres of fine "diatwoods" potato land undeveloped. New road through St. Johns County have opened up great areas of splendid finnoy soil. In fact the humble spud is regarded one of the best crops on the rich east coast of Florida. Irish potatoes are also being grown further South, in the Everglades. Capt. E. R. Graham, resident manager of the Pennsylvania Sugar Company, for several years has had big plantings in Glades 18 miles island from Miami. The spuds always bring good prices and when the North caught short in springtime they are Criminals; Condition of the Foot photos: Courtesy of Wm. M. Scholl, M.

A weak foot when neglected soon becomes distorted by the force of the body's weight. A flat foot with broken down arch registers on the pedigraph. The illustration at the upper, from Dr. Scholl's files, shows the impression of a high arch weight of the body's weight. The one on the left, shows a foot of normal appearance which gave considerably under weight. Allowing for individual peculiarities, the pedigraph aids the expert in his preliminary examinations as it indicates the misdirected pressures resulting from many foot deformities and weaknesses, which can be confirmed by examination and x-ray. It is also widely used in the fitting of shoes.
