THE RICHMOND PLANET VIRGINIA MUG 10 1929 STATE LIBRARY SEGREGATION ORDINANCE TO SPECIAL COMMITTEE. Clem Johnson No Match for Great Heavy-weight----Lasts Only 3 Rounds. VOLUME XLVI, NO. SE ORDIN THE E Inter-Racial GEORG Clem John George Gouffre, the well-known heavyweight of Philadelphia and Clem Johnson, lesser-known pugnish of New York, gave the poring element here a "run for their mone, at true Reformers Hall, Monday night. The place was packed. An arena had been erected on the stage, and the boxing affair, as it was called, was under the auspices of the monarch Biliard and Atailec Club, or which James T. Fry is manager. 400 seats had been set aside for white folks at $2 each and the others for colored folks at $1.50 per head and they were surely there to occupy them. CLEM NO MATCH FOR GODFREY Clem Johnson proved to be no match for Godfrey, who stands 6 feet 3 inches. He permitted Johnson to occupy the arena for just 3 rounds. Paddy Mills, white, was the referee. Charles Price, of Philadelpha is trainer for George Godfrey. Both stand at the top in the pugils. the world just now. Godfrey stated that he had been a sparring partner for Jack Johnson, Jack Dempsey and Sam Langford. SCOBED FIFTY KNOCKOUTS. He has scored fifty knockouts during his varied career. He said that the "fight game" is one of chance. It depends upon one's ability to deliver the lucky punch at the proper time. He knew much about Jack Johnson and his varied career. He was not d sposed to accept the state ment that Jack Johnson "laid down" in his fight with Jess Willard in Havana. He believes that Jack Johnson in his prime was the greatest defensive fighter that has ever lived. Mr. Godfrey spent a day or so here having a good tme before returning to Philadelphia and he was quarred at Miller's Hotel. TRIED TO PRINT PHONEY MEMBERSHIP CARDS. As an aftermath to the affair, the docket at the Police Courtion showed the following on last Tuesday morning: "Linwood Mason. C 28 Lab. 602 N. 2nd St. On warrant did unlawfully and feloniously forge and have in his possession on certain membership cards to the Mohlh Billard and Athletic Club, Inc., Richmond Va. purporting to be signed by one James T. Fry, Jr. with intent to employ same as true and genuine endorsement. he well knowing the same to be forged with intent to defraud Wit. James Inman I. G. Cousins." ..... WALKED INTO TRAP It seems that Mason ordered 200 tickets from the Southern Stamp and Stationery Company. The firm called up Fry about it and it was arranged to have a detective present when Mason called for the job. Mason walked into the trap and was arrested. In court last Tuesday Mason was represented by Attorney Charles W. Moss. When Fry was called, he could not be found Later he showed up but the case had been postponed until December 13th. None of the tickets were used and Mason lost $4.50 in having the same printed. He had not been bailed when the Police Court adjourned. ... He gave bond for $500 Wednesday morning and was released. .. TUBERCULOSIS TAKES HEAVY TOLL FROM THE RACE. The death rate from Tuberculosis among Negroes is from two and a half to three times that of white people according to a statement of Miss Nora Spencer Hammer, secretary of the Richmond Tuberculosis Association, a member agency of the Community Fund of Richmond. The estimate cost of Tuberculosis in the United States is twenty-seven and one-half billion dollars due to loss of life from the disease nine hundred and thirteen million dollars is lost in wages and it costs four hundred and fifty-six and one-half million dollars to care for those sick from Tuberculosis. The whole cost of preventable disease is approximately twenty-nine billion dollars. Tuberculosis cuts off two and one half years from the complete life expectancy of every individual as is indicated by the present death rate in our country. Nearly two thirds of all the deaths from Tuberculosis occur between the ages of fifteen and forty-four, a period of life when a person is best able to be of the greatest usefulness. Tuberculosis can be cured if taken in the very earliest stages of the disease, but only by carrying out the directions of an expert doctor and not by taking medicine advertised to cure such troubles. ... Symptoms of Tuberculosis are a tired feeling, a continued cough or hoarseness, loss of weight and appetite. A doctor should be consulted if a cold lasts more than two weeks as this may be a danger signal and should be taken care of as soon as possible. .. MINISTERS' WIVES UNION. The Ministers' Wives Union invites all Ordained Baptist Ministers' wives of Richmond and Vicinity to be present at their regular meeting the first Friday in each month. The permanent place of meeting is at 502 W. Clay Street. The Colored Girls' Home, from 6 to 7 P. M. This Union is composed of Ministers' wives who are trying to help their sisters and to become better acquainted with each other while they are well, that they may not be for gotten in their hour of distress. Since our last meeting, a surprise was led on Mesdames Jacob and C. Turner, the wives of two of Richmond's veteran Ministers. A goodly number of articles as well as a purse were left with each sister, who in turn expressed the r appreciation to the Union for their thought of them. Come with us, sisters each first Caintain Edward Gould of Norfolk is one of our best friends and surp ortions and he "comes strong" when he does come. RICHMOND, VIRGINIA. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 8. 1928. REV. DR. HILL SPEAKS TO THE WOMEN HERE. REV. DR. HILL SPEAKS TO THE WOMEN HERE. Delivers Great Sermon. Congregation Packs the Edifice. (Special by John Mitchell, Jr.) Last Sunday was "Woman's Day at the second Baptist Church. I found that Rev. Joseph T. Hill D. D., the recently installed pastor had succeeded in accomplishing the seemingly impossible feat of having the congregation attend the 11 o'clock services on time. I had known of the effort made during previous years to do this same thing, but it had always been safe to enter the sacred edifice at 12 o'clock and be in time for the regular service. Rev. Dr. Hill took his text from Judges 4:8 A TRIBUTE TO WOMEN He tribute to woman was a marvel. He rdiculed the idea that she was not the equal of man and showed that in many respects she was man's superior. He explained why he bowed at the shrine of womanhood. She mothered the offspring and was the hope of man's future. He dwelt on the power and influence of woman, declaring that if women willied it they could stop the habit of men to get drunk. He declared that these excesses were indulged in by men because women tolerated them. SHOULD REFUSE. If women would refuse to receive or entertain men with the smell of licor on their breaths, the men would come without this scent. He declared that no man should take to himself a wife unless he intended to take care of her and unless he was going to provide for her in a manner that she could properly bring up his children. He also warned women against the habit of insisting upon non-essentials from husbands who were doing all in their power to support them and their offspring. It led to causing some husbands to steal. CITED INSTANCES He cited instances where some women would go so far as to threaten their husbands saying if they could not give them what they wanted, they knew where they could get it and that the husbands beware not say anything to them when they brought it there. He condemned this habit of cigarette smoking on the part of females clausing that the nicotine poisoned their offspring and in emphasizing this phase of the subject he said that it had been said that he was opposed to hobbled hair He said that women could both their hair. This did not interfere with their off-spring and neither did wearing short skirts interfere with their husband's babes, but that nicotine in the cigarettes and the alcohol in the whiskey did injure the child before it was born. For this reason, as a man, he had to condemn this practice. In a part of the sermon he said concerning some of the young rolks "Women, you are smoking; you are drinking." He declared that these habits accounted for the little runs seen running around. ALL STAR QUARTETTE. The "All Star Quartette" under the fine leadership of Mrs. Carrie V. Hawkins rendered jubilee songs. One of the singers was absent but Rev. Hill announced that the singing must go on. The church was filled to overflowing and the question of additional seating room is becoming a burning issue. Rev. Dr. Hill had worked up the congregation to a point where the "sisters" were "happy" and a commotion spread through the church. He concluded his remarks with a reference to Mary Magdalene washing the feet of Jesus and wiping them with her hair. Then he told the story of the "writing upon the ground" and Jesus' instructions to the woman "Go in peace and sin no more." STOLE AUTO WHEEL AND TIRES Blacksmith C. E. Bragg had Lewis Freeman's truck to repair and install a new body thereon. It was in the lot adjoining his shop 413 N. Fourth St. Two tires were stolen and one wheel. The tire was stolen November 23rd at night and the wheel and tire stolen last Monday night. Mr. Bragg is much wrought up over the affair and the matter has been reported to the Detective Bureau. Dr. Andrew A. Robinson has been indsposed and confined to his residence. Mrs. Robinson has been supplying his place at his improved pharmacy. Washington Doctor Dies Suddenly Here. Dr. W. S. Penn, a well-known character in this State and who resides in Washington, D. C. at 1315 C Street came to the city last Wednesday in his car and secured a room at 203 E. Clay Street. He became ill and died in bed Thursday night. His death was from natural causes. He had been indisposed in Petersburg, it is said, for a week or ten days. His sister came to take charge of his remains. He was originally a resident of Lynchburg, Va. He peddled medicines and was quite successful at this bus ness. When it comes to dying Embalmer H. L.

Jackson, who passed into the great beyond four years ago: ..... "She is not dead.—the friend of my affection. But gone into that school Where she no longer needs our poor protection and Christ Himself doth rule. Mr. E. F. Scott was in the city last week in company with his daughters, Mrs C. G. Scott and Mrs. Rossmond Pierce and his son, Mr. H. H. Scott. They motored here from Clifton Forge, Va. In company with Ed. or John Mitchell, Jr., they visited places of interest here and returned home last Monday. Mr. Scott is one of the best known citizens of color in the western section of the State. He is in fine health now. NOT MITTLE RELIEVE en Both R ERS HA Only 3 Ro Hannibal Shearn Shoots Alex Durant.

German Polly Marks Zep's Flight By Adopting New Home in America ```markdown ``` When the Graf Zeppelin completed its sensational flight back to Germany it left behind in the United States a voluble and vari-colored parrot, a gift from Captain Lehman of the immense aircraft to the wife of V. C. Young, head of the Goodyne Zeppelin Corporation in Akron, Ohio. Polly, slowly learning and changing in her adoption, is returning to manifest an international taste for sunflower seed, thus links the world-famed achievements of the two leaders in dirigible aircraft construction, for Mr. Young's knowledge and preeminence, as an engineer gives him undisputed standing in the scientific and mechanical worlds.

No longer do heavily laden stage coaches, drawn by four prancing steeds, pull up at the old taverns for a brief respite and refreshment for both traveler and animal as was the custom in Merrie Old England and even in the United States in days gone by.

Toronto's latest hostelry, will institute for the benefit of those of its patrons who are devotees of the Royal and Ancient Game of golf an old-time stage coach service between the hotel and the new Royal York golf course, laid out by Stanley Thompson, now under construction in the Hotel Ber River Golf Toronto. This originally the property of Major-General Sir Henry Pell C V O.

C. - Roumania farmers and millers are clamoring for grain futures market. They say it will save them money. Portland, Ore., and Vancouver, B. C., are arranging grain exchanges for greater marketing economy. A silk futures market has been opened in New York, and plans are going forward for a crude oil exchange. Hamburg recently opened a grain futures market at the request of farmers and other German grain interests. John Vesey, president of the Southern Farmal, has joined the Chicago Board of Trade, the largest grain futures market. In a word, futures trudging, based on the economical method of the grain exchange system, is expanding throughout the world. The situation presents a curious paradox. Leading economists and business men and untold numbers of practical farmers give proof of the value of futures trading to producers and consumer. Yet a small group of politicians and self-appointed farm leaders continue their attack on futures exchanges, just as the Populists and similar radical groups for years hampered the railroads and other institutions and blocked progress.

The extreme measure has been referred to as the death knell of futures markets. That may be an exaggeration. But the powers it would invest in the secretary of agriculture are regarded as an amazing departure. A market could not even make a rule of regulation or a change without first having approval of the secretary of agriculture. A one-man power would be complete. That is just one feature of a revolutionary measure. Farmers' organizations, bankers, business groups, and others are expected to vigorously combat the proposed unison law. In the meantime the markets probably will be disturbed, to the disadvantage of hedging cities so valuable to the farmers MOND PLANE fAGE FOUR Wer or. gts - sags: gan rage ni appl E a Se. eee “Ss ese 4 REO z. . ea a oe ae ae Ne ae hee Se ae a ruplimed Every Gaturday 67 Hale ome Sor ret Powe tome, me 4OHN MITCHELL, ‘TR..-,.

Raskob of the po- sition as Chairman of the Democratic Nat onal Committee. He raised over five million dotiars for campaign purposes and at pregent, no one is ix sight who can come anywhere near dupl.cating this feat. But be fe a recent convert from the Repub- lican Party und was ushered at once to the leadership of the Democratic Party oe ce ‘Thousands of “dyed in the wool” Democrats are anx ous to get rid of ‘him as an individual, but would like to retain the jnfluence and ability which he possesses to raise money. ‘There is rather a humorous view to this situation in the manner the Editor of the Richmond, Va. Times Dispatch states the ease. His re marks are as follows: .. «+ “Our suggestion in the cireum stances, is that Mr. Raskob remain at the helm long enough to wipe out that debt of $1,500,000, which ts largely e thing of W's making, and before the campaign of 1932 is Yeunched, rel'nquiish the reins of leadership in order that they may be assumed by a man better qualified politically to manage the fortunes ‘of the Democrat’ party in its quad renn‘al fight. It might be well, it tre debt is liquidated by that time. for Kim to retire before the eon zressional campaigns of 1930, since His presence in nat onal headquar ters undoubtedly would be a handi eap to his Demoerat'e brethren aspir ing for office. ea ‘This is a hard bo%ed suggestion, lw Mr Raskob has invited :t in the statement that he ig wile to take an unself’sh attitude with respret to his polit’eal future.” All Chairman Raskob will want to know fs whether or not, were thes» gentlemen In his posit’on. would they he willing to do the same thing? Echo answers, no.

The Committee on Inter-Racial_ Relations between the races here was seen at its best this week in Its dealing wich the effort to have the City Counc! of Richmond, Va. pass a segregation ordinance effec: tive April 1, 1929. It not only passed resolutons condemning it, but succeeded In having the subé committee of the Committee on Ordinances adopt a resolution ap: pointing a spec'al committee com- posed of city officials and white and colored c.tizens to study the situa- tion and to report on the same by May 1, 1929... Ms ‘This was the sensible thing to do and t will tea to lessen the fric- tion on both sides. Colored people hereabouts have uo desire to move into white localities and when they do, it is tie logical reselt of being unable ( find suitable places in swh'ch to live. Outlying improved sections are being prepared and oc- cupied by white residents anu own- ers. ‘Their of homesteads are left vacant and are tenantless.

Instead of blaming the white pro: perty owners and the Teal estate agents, who act in the matter. they proceed to raise a cry against the poor, kind-hearted colored people, who have no desire to offend.

The discus sion Gisclosed many angles to the s tuation and the committee felt that earnest consideration should be given the paper, so that all interests might be conserved and every safeguard to city and citizens be effected. Several speakers pointed out that the ordinance as proposed might lead to hardship upon many property owners, both white and colored; while it was also shown that some prov'sion should be made for the growing population of both races. ‘The statement was made that while the colored. populat‘on is about one third of the tota', that group oect pies but 15 per cent of territory and that while the life expectation of ‘the white populat’on ts 52 years, that of the Negro is 27.6. It was asserted that this condition 's largely due to liv.ng condition and congestion in_wnsanitary localities. Alderman Henry W. Woody, ex plained the ordinance and asked that bo adopted as a “measure of re lief to a cond’tion that .s rapidly hecoming unbearable in certan rec Vons, where Negroes are encroach ing on White neighborhoods.” .. .

He presented a number of Negro speakers, each of whom preseated arguments sustain ng their opposi tion views. This group embraced Joseph R. Pollard, W. L. Ransom, L. A Red, M. A. Norrell, and W. A. Jordan. ©. H. Funsten headed a group favoring the ord’nance. Included in this class were the rector of St. ‘Andrew's Church and the supertn tendent of Spritigfleld School, and John Dutyon, a Clay Ward citizen. Assistant Attorney Luc'us Cary ex pressed his belies that the proposed ordinance would prove constitut,onal At conciusion of the discussion Mr Fonsten expressed the op.nion that, imasmuch as 30 many important an gles had developed, he would recom mend the naming of a commission to fully cons'der the problem, 80 that a conclusion m'ght be reached satgfactory to both races...

DEGROAT High Lights in Burroughs' Case Here Instructions (1) Every homicide in Virginia in the absence of other evidence, is presumed to be murder in the second degree, and in order to elevate the offense to murder in the first degree, the burden of proof is upon the Commonwealth and in order to reduce the offense to manslaughter, or to show justification or excuse, the burden is upon the accused to introduce evidence to show extinguating circumstances, or justification, unless it appears from the evidence of the Commonwealth. (2) The Court instructs the jury that malice in law may be inferred from the use of a deadly weapon. (3) The Court further instructs you that to constitute a willful, deliberate and preexecutated killing, it is not necessary that the intention to kill should exist any particular length of time prior to the actual killing; it is only necessary that such intention should come into existence for the first time at the time of such killing. (4) The court instructs the jury that the law of self-defense is the law of necessity and the necessity relied upon to justify a killing must not arise out of the prisoner's own misconduct. The Court instructs the jury that if they beieve from the evidence that W. B. Farrughs, the accused killed Sharpe under a reasonable belief that his own life was in danger and that such danger was imminent or that he was in danger of serious bodily harm, as the facts and circumstances reasonably appeared to him at the time, he was excusable in so doing, although such danger was unreal. The question for the jury in this case was not whether the taking of the life of Sharpe might have been safely avoided, but whether the accused under the circumstances might reasonably have believed and did believe, it was necessary to shoot to他 did resulting in the death of Sharpe, in order to save his own life or avoid serious bodily harm; then and in that event the jury should find the accused not guilty. The jurors are instructed that if they be Ive seen the evidence that the accused started living at the deceased in self-defense, then they are further instructed that the accused had a right to continue to shoot at the deceased as long as it reasonably appeared to him from his standpoint at that there was still danger of losing his life or suffering serious bodily harm at the hands of the deceased. The accused is to be judged by the circumstances and conditions as they reasonably appeared to him at the time. (6) It was not necessary that such danger did in fact continue to exist provided we believe from all the evidence that it reasonably appeared that the defendant from his standpoint had been wrongly accused to exist. (7) The Court instructs the jury that if they believe from the evidence that the defendant was discharging what he is not likely to be a lawful duty and engaged in a lawful act, he did not retract; but may or pol force it if needed to be the extent of duty to adversary. This is justifiable defense. (8) In this connection, the Court tells that if they believe from the dear that officer Burrucgus app- ached James Sharp for the pur- sion of the James police officer then. Kim that he was a police officer then of the said James Slarpe to submit to the officer even had commit- officer had no just reason for arresting him as a (9) (9) The Court instructs the jury that an officer in the performance of his duty as such stands on an entirely different footing from an individual. He is a minister of justice and is therefore entitled to the peculiar protection of the law and the respect of citizens as such. (11) The Court instructs the jury that in order to convict the accused as charged in the indictment, the evidence must not only be consistent with the guilt of the accused, but it must be inconsistent with every reasonable hypothesis of the innocence of the accused, and if said evidence is consistent with any reasonable hypothesis of his innocence, then they must find him not guilty. (12) --- No amount of suspicion of guilt, however grave or strong, is sufficient to find a verdict. Nor is it sufficient that the evidence shows a preponderance in favor of guilt, the burden being upon the Commonwealth to prove every necessary element of the crime charged beyond a reasonable doubt—and if after consideration of all the facts and circumstances in this case, you have a reasonable doubt as to any of these matters, it is your duty to give the accused the benefit of such doubt and acquit him. prove every crime charge doubt, and all the facts case, you ha to any of t (4) The Court instructs the jury that in order to entitle the accused to an acquittal on the ground of self-defense, the accused is required to sustain his plea of self-defense only to the point that the evidence in support of it when considered along with the other evidence in the case raises in the minds of the jury a reasonable doubt of his guilt. James Sharp, a respectable, he killed by Officer Walter B. Burr August 3, 1928. Sharp had committed no crime for his arrest or warrant to searc Burroughs was chasing boys (Juvenile Department of Virginia only in the Juvenile Court here, Ricks. These boys had committ loitering on a corner and whe Burroughs mistook James Shar boy, William Branch and he kill hin with a blackjack and shot own house, the length of a roo Burroughs was in citizen's clo of authority and he did not rea was too dark to see a badge an to read. What do the liberal minded wing and what will they do about James Sharp, a respectable, hard working colored man was killed by Officer Walter B. Burroughs in his (Sharp's) own home August 3, 1928. Sharp had committed no crime and Burroughs had no warrant for his arrest or warrant to search his premises. Burroughs was chasing boys (juveniles) who are under the Juvenile Department of Virginia and subject to trial for offenses only in the Juvenile Court here, presided over by Judge J. Hoge Ricks. These boys had committed no crime. They were seen loitering on a corner and when spoken to ran from the officers. Burroughs mistook James Sharp, a man fifty years of age for a boy, William Branch and he killed Sharp. He admitted he beat him with a blackjack and shot him three times inside of Sharp's own house, the length of a room from the entrance. Burroughs was in citizen's clothes. He did not display his badge of authority and he did not read a warrant to James Sharp. It was too dark to see a badge and he had no warrant with him to read. What do the liberal minded white citizens think of this happening and what will they do about it? (6) This is the law. (7) This is the law. Before killing, the accused mus veniently and safely can, in order to invite a continuance of the as of shedding human blood. But i treat, but the assault, as in othe gerous. If the party slaying mad combat and retreat as far as he s will make the killing excusable, possible by the adversary's fierce city, which he himself wrongfully This is the law that did not g Before killing, the accused must have retreated as far as he conveniently and safely can, in order to avoid the assault, and that not to invite a continuance of the assault, but from a real tenderness of shedding human blood. But in his own house one need not retreat, but the assault, as in other cases, must be immediately dangerous. If the party slaying made the first assault, he must quit the combat and retreat as far as he safely can. Otherwise no necessity will make the killing excusable, even though retreat is made impossible by the adversary's fierceness. He cannot allege a necessity, which he himself wrongfully occasioned. This is the law that did not go to the jury in the Walter B. Burroughs' case, the accused being charged with killing James Sharp after he had invaded his home in search of a juvenile, who admittedly had committed no crime and for whom he had no warrant, and in a house, for which he had no search warrant. Burroughs was acquitted. "Equality and Rights of Men: That all men are by nature equally free and independent, and have certain inherent rights, of which, when they enter into a state of society, they cannot by any compact, deprive or divest their posterity; namely, the enjoyment of life and liberty, with the means of acquiring and possessing property, and pursuing and obtaining happiness and safety. The above is an extract from the Bill of Rights, Constitution Virginia and not from the Amendments in the Constitution of the United States. It was not read to the jury in the Burrough's case, concluded Wednesday hight, October 24, 1928 with a verdict of acquittal. (Constitution of Virginia, Bill of Rights Article I, Section 8) (Constituent (1) This is the law. (2) This is the law. (3) This is the law. (4) This is the law. Did the alleged necessity to kill James Sharp arise out of the prisoner's (W. B. Burrough's) own misconduct? By his own sword testimony, stenographically reported it did. Legally, he could not get on James Sharp's promises without violating Article 1. Section 10 of the Constitution of Virginia. This was misconduct on his part. He had neither a general warrant nor a search warrant. He wore citizen's clothes and he did not display his badge. Section 23 of the State Prohibition Act reads: 23. WHEN OFFICERS MAY BREAK AND ENTER HOUSES 'If any house, building, boat car or other place as in herein before mentioned, the sale, offering, storing or exposing for sale of ardent spirits is carried on clandestinely; or in such manner that the person or persons engaged therein cannot be seen or identified by the officer or officers charged with the execution of a warrant, under any section of this act any such officer may, whenever it is necessary for the arrest or identification of the person or persons offending, or or seizing such ardent spirits, break open and enter such house, building, boat, car or place, or any room or part of any of them.' (Code Section 4619; Id. Section 29.) (5) This is the law, but it is applicable to a legal arrest made elsewhere than in a citizen's own home, where a citizen is surrounded by the guarantees of the Constitution of Virginia and those of the Constitution of the United States, which entitle him to protection in his life liberty and pursuit of happiness "with none to molest him or make him afraid." H's and G. and M. p. 95 says "if the party slaying made the first assault he must quit the combat and retreat as far as he safely can. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to permit the issuance of general warrants whereby an officer may be commanded to search suspected places without evidence of a fact committed, or to seize any person or persons not named or whose offense is not particularly described and supported by evidence." (Code Section 4612; 1916 p. 215; 1918 p. 577. Section 22 ). (8) This is the law. See Article 1 Section 10 and H's G. and M. p. 95. This is the law. It is also the law that a citizen who has committed no crime and who has not been suspected of having done so by any evidence present or implied and who is resting quietly after night-fall and after a day of honest toll as such stands on an entirely different footing from an individual who has habitually violated the law.... Section 17. "It shall be unlawful for any person knowingly to resist, impede, or obstruct, or in any manner to hinder or delay any legal officer having in his hands any search warrant, issued by any officer of this State having the right to issue the same, under the provisions of his act, in the execution of such warrant. Any person so resisting, impeding, obstructing, or in any way hindering or delaying any officer in the execution of a legal search warrant in his hands shall be guilty of a misdemeanor." (Code Section 4614 Id. Section 23 1.2.) (H's. G. and M. p. 95) (10) (11) (12) (18) HE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND. VIRGINIA This is the law and it might be added that W. B. Burroughs, according to his own statement was a minister of injustice and by his own illegal act was not entitled to the peculiar protection of the law and the respect of citizens as such. But this was a question for the jury to decide and it was decided in the light of the information before them. This is the law. W. B. Burroughs statement, stenographically reported will clear up this phase of the situation. The specific provisions of the State Prohibition Law settle it. Here it is: ... "If there be no complaint on oath that ardent spirits are being manufactured, sold, kept, stored or in any manner held, used or concealed in a particular house or other place, in violation of the law, the justice of peace, police-justice, circuit or city judge and mayor of any city or town to whom complaint is made, if satisfied that there is reasonable cause for such belief, shall issue a warrant to search such house or other place, the property of a public service corporation such warrant shall describe with reasonable certainty the baggage, container or package to be searched "If any person shall knowingly and wilfully make any false complaint under this section, he shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and fined not less than $50 nor more than $500 for each offense.

E MIAMI YACHTS IN MI Everyone, Regardless of M and Leisure of the Sen for Play, Amid A Is Secret of C MIAMI, FLA.—There is a note in Miami that the boosters of this beautiful city have struck at for years, but never hit. They have sung the praises of Miami's golf and fishing, the beautiful girls, and the sunshines and the balmy breeze of the Gulf Stream. They have told the world about every sport and pleasure, and every attraction and distraction that exists in the vicinity of Miami; but they have never struck the note which is, fundamentally, the score of Miami's success. The reason is, of course, that such a note escapes definition in popular advertising slogans and phrases. It is a thing of the spirit. It is more of an individual sentiment than a slogan; it is the peace of mind that you get from the place after you have lived there a while, and begun to realize that you have never been so happy anywhere else in your life for so long a time, and that, after all, living a happy life: doing what you please, breathing clean air, feeling the hot sun, seeing the light and beauty about you all the time, is most important. It is the spirit deje of people who are more concerned about making each day a happy day than about clothes, wear or the amount of space devoted to them in the total columns the spirit of eternal youthfulness that European resorts, he never hard the try, can never quite achieve. That do not even succeed in feeling themselves. Spirit of Youthfulness How Milk Is D Other lands, other customs.

The city grew, was laid out and expanded by people who came here when they were young, and wanted to get the most out of life. And that keynote has persisted, just as naturally as the laureate of New York, Pittsburgh San Francisco, Paris and London have persisted. If you want to walk around in Mdlm in your shirtlesses, do so, and no one will think the less of you. If you want to water your lawn in a bathing suit, good; and if you think your hat would look nice painted a bright pea-green, you will find lots of sympathetic admirers. It would be as odd to see a person in Miami at a loss for something to do, as it would be to see a Parisian who could not find a fashionable outcourleur and I have yet to see the Miamian who grew tired of basking in the sun; the sun bath is an institution, like going to church, or Gilbert and Sillivan. On Sunday mornings one can always find a good part of Miami stretched out on the beach, skrolling, chatting, reading the morning papers. All have bathing suits on, yet I doubt if one-half of them ever really go bathing for the water a . . . : the sun is so pleasant. Happiest in Miami To hear a group of Miamians discussing their else you would think that they could not possibly be happy anywhere else in the world. End you, it would not be far wrong. I could name a half dozen people of my acquaintance in moderate circumstances who are just as happy and enjoy just as many friendships as those who made fortunes a few years ago and who are now cultivated in miniature palaces, those old houses where you have acquired wealth in the western advance of the city since 1914 Delivered in Other Lands In Darjeeling, India, the milkman carries the milk to another. 2.

THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND' VIRGINIA AUTOCASTER Elinor Mordaunt, English novelist, was made Lady King by the cannibal tribe of Dutch New Guinea Islands. She was appointed King of the tribe because she was taller than the aged ruler.

The native title of the women of the tribe is Massi Bibi or more properly wilde. or those wealthy visitors from the North who find pleasure in creating super estates near Miami. Though poor, the homes of these people are bathed in sunshine and in the warmth and scarlet hibiscus bloom and flame in their gardens, and the song of the mocking bird is forever at their bedroom windows. But the richness and charm of Miami is not derived wholly from the personalities of those connected with the arts and professions. It is due, in a large measure, to the tradesmen, craftsmen, and all manner of artisans who have settled within sight of its impressive skyline. The greatest number by far, are people of very limited means who have been drawn with by the perpetual sunshine, and the prospects of an easier, and happier life. The homes of these people receive just as much sunshine, and just as much air as the palatial audiences on Biscay Bay. They are an free to enjoy the seashore, the fishing, the bathing, and the luxury of idleness is known as much to them as the man of unlimited wealth. I am inclined to believe that it is their intimacy with nature that makes them such a such asset to Miami. They seem to get such an abundance of joy out of the simplest pleasures that Florida has to offer. If they want to spend a advantages. One of these men had a habit of fishing along a canal that runs below Coconut Grove a suburb of Miami. His fishing equipment was a cane rod and line, and a can of bait, and the fish he caught were generally red snappers about nine inches long. I am sure it was not only the fishing that kept him there, for he would often lie out at full length, with his face to the sun, and forget his rod and line. **Levers of the Sun** This man, I learned through conversation, was an architect from Minneapolis who had put up a small shack on an old orange grove near Coral Gables. He did his own cooking, washed his own clothes, and pottered around with some fruits and flowers that he had planted the previous year. For five months of the year.

They are not over an hour's drive from home, yet they spend their day in a spot that has all the advantages and some of the disadvantages of a private island in the South Seas. There is no one to warn them off the beach or to molest them in any way. Their outing is one of undiluted joy, and they can return to their home in an open car, with their coats off, while their neighbors in the North are stoking the furnace and worrying about the coal bill.

Kraus, vice president and executive manager of the Union Trust Company, Cleveland, in the current issue of Nation's Business. Perhaps the most fruitful source of criticism of banks arises from their measures to protect their loans" says the banker. "Out of these measures grow most of the comment that the banks squeeze a business to death in order to get control. As a matter of fact, the bank is really interested in having a company prosperous. That ought to be obvious. Banks prosper in a community of prosperous commerce. "In 1237, fully 82 per cent of the failures in the country were found to be due to faults of those failing "Is it any wonder that bankers are interested in the character of the management of the companies to which loans have been extended? Probably no other single factor or risk-taking is as important. In many kinds of business, management represents much more than three-fourths of the banking and investment risk. Caution with respect to a loan is the bankers obligation because the money he lends has been entrusted to his care by many depositors. "Bankers usually get into the management of a company only when the previous management has been unsuccessful, and then only as a temporary measure.

Getting Most Out of Life And this man is typical of dozens that I have met. The unsettled wilderness of the Everglades seems to appeal to their pioneer spirit. Like the early pioneers of the West, these men, see in Florida the realization of long-cherished dreams of settlement in a new country . . . of winning a livelihood from the wilderness; for although Miami will preserve the last word in the country, 20th Century buildings, one can view from the tall buildings an unbroken panorama of America's first frontier, the home of the fish and the alligator, the red panther, and Seminole Indians who live to-day by trapping and hunting as they did a hundred years ago. The basic reason for the success of Florida is its wonderful climate. But the reason why Northerners come to Miami year after year, is that they have the best time here. It all sounds very simple, yet those reasons are based upon the most fundamental impulses of mankind. Why is everyone so interested in the South Sea Islanders? Merely because they represent that mylic, carefree, beautiful life that most of us long for. I think that, subconciously, a great many people find in Miami our civilized expression of that perfect life enjoyed by primitive peoples, which pretty fully explains the present large population of Miami, the healthy-looking faces, and the preponderance of smiles over frown.

Overloading the heart is inexcusable on your part. How do you do it? First, by overeating and unnecessary stimulation.

A TORNADO VISITS EUROPE FLORIDA IS SOUND INTROVERTS MISS WEST PITIES WOMEN Terrific storms in Europe have killed many in Europe and Britain, the high winds putting a new fear in the populations. Tornadoes and earthquakes visit different parts of the earth, impartially, and nations might be content with the war that nature forces upon them, not insisting upon fighting and killing each other. The tornado in Europe, leaving a trail of loss and death, will not cause foolish pessimism, such as outsiders have displayed after a wind storm in Florida. Florida's high wind comes only rarely and never in Winter, when the harvest season of tourists is on. And Florida in one important respect has an advantage over other States air financial condition and freedom from debt. Florida, as a State, owes nobody a dollar. The State is absolutely free from bonded indebtedness, its laws forbidding the State to borrow for any purpose, except for suppressing insurrection within the State, or repelling armed invasion. No State is in a better condition financially than Florida, destined to be one of the greatest States in the Union, in population and in money. And now, after the boom, while the foolish nurse their wounds, is a good time to buy in Florida, if you buy wisely. Professors of Northwestern University tell business men selecting employment to take out extroverts and good introverts. The introvert is a dreamer, withdrawing within himself. The extrovert is a back-slapper and go-etter. Theodore Roosevelt, Mussolini, William Howard Taft and Governor Smith are of the extrovert type. There is something of the introvert and extrovert in every man. Charles Fourier told about it more than a hundred years ago, using the words "internal intuitional, and external rational," which are better. Miss Rebecca West, forceful young British person who writes well, pities American women. Their lives are tragic, says she.

Euchre introduces herself and he talks about conversation with her. Buck plays the game, making Mrs. Bland think he loves her. Duane pretends to her husband that Buck has come to visit Jennie. Bland urges Buck to become a regular member of his outlaw game. Buck develops in which Duane kills and rushes off with Jennie after a terrific struggle with Mrs. Bland. Plans to meet her until a time when a friend is located, and then go on a alone on the trail. He keeps careful guard over her. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY About the middle of the afternoon Jennie awoke. They cooked a meal, and afterward sat beside the little fire. She had never been, in his observation of her, anything but a tragic figure, an unhappy girl, the farthest removed from serenity and poise. That charac- teristic capacity for agitation struck him as stronger in her this day. "He attributed, it, however, to the long strain, the suspense nearing an end. Yet sometimes, when her eyes were on him, she did not seem to be thinking of her freedom, of her future. "This time tomorrow you'll be in Shelbyville," he said. "Where will you be?" she asked quickly. "Me? Oh, I'll be making tracks for some lonesome place," he replied. The girl shuddered. "I've been brought up in Texas. I remember what a hard lot the men of my family had. But poor as they were, they had a roof over their heads, a hearth with a fire, a warm bed— somebody to love them. "And you, Duane, oh, my God! What your life must be! You must ride and bide and watch eternally. No decent food, no pillow, no friendly word, no clean clothes, no woman's bond! Horses graze, trails, rocks. holes—these must be the important things in your life. You must go on riding, hiding, killing until you meet She ended with a sob and dropped her head on her knees. Duane was amazed, deeply touched. "My girl, thank you for that thought of me," he said, with a tremor in his voice. "You don't know how much that means to me." She raised her face and it was tear-stained, eloquent, beautiful. "I've heard tell—the best of men go to the bad out there. You won't. Promise me you won't. I never—knew any man—like you. I—I—we may never see each other again—after today. I'll never forget you. I'll pray for you and I'll never give up trying to—to do something. "Don't despair. It's never too late. It was my hope that kept me alive—out there at Bland's—before you came. I was only a poor weak girl. But if I could hope—so can you. Stay away from men! Be a lone wolf! Fight for your life! Stick out your exile—and maybe—some day—" Then she lost her voice. Duane clasped her hand, and with feeling as deep as hers promised to remember her words. In her despair for him she had spoken wisdom—pointed out the only course. Duane's vigilance, momentarily broken by emotion, had no sooner reassured itself than he discovered the bay house, the one Jennie rode had broken his halter and gone off. The soft wet earth had deadened the sound of his hoofs. His tracks were plain in the mud. There were clumps of mesquit in sight, among which the horse might lose strayed. It turned out however, that he had not done so. Duane did not want to leave Jennie in the cabin, so near the road. She put her up on his horse and lather her. The rain had ceased for the time being, though evidently the storm was not yet over. The tracks led up a wash to a wide flat where mesquit, prickly pear, and thorn-hush grew so thickly that Jennie could not ride into it. Duane was throughly concerned. He must have her horse. Time was flying. It would soon be night. He could not expect her to scrawl quickly through that brake on foot. Therefore he decided to risk leaving her at the edge of the thicket and go in alone. Suddenly there came an unmistakable thump of horses' hoofs off somewhere to the fore. Then a scream riled the air. It ended in a leaped forward and tore his way through the thorny brake. He heard cry again—an appealing call, quickly hushed. It seemed close to his right, and he plunged that It forms into a glade where a smoldering fire and ground covered with footprints and tracks showed that campers had lately been. Rushing across this, he broke his passage out to the open. But he was too late. His horse had disappeared. Jennie was gone. There was no rider in sight. There was no sound. It came to him then like a blow that he loved the girl. For three long and terrible years Buck Duane rode up and down the Texas border. His fame grew steadily until he was the most noted and most misrepresented outlaw of his day. Hundreds of men in the border towns claimed friendship with him. Every honest rancher between Brownville and El Paso would have been glad to shake his hand and hide him. Every outlaw along the river reared him; every crooked gambler in the monte dens played fair when Duane happened to drop in; every imitation bad man in the southwest of Texas wanted to kill him, bragged on his name, hunted him when fired by drink. The better half of that widely scattered populace especially in localities Duane had visited, was loath to believe him perpetrator of the crimes laid to him. The ignorant and outlawed class fastened on his name all the rustling, hold-ups, robberies, murders, when direct evidence did not point to someone else. In a sense, the reputation of every THE WESTERN WESTERN WESTERN $1000 REWARD FOR BUCK DUANE ALIVE OR DEAD $1,000 Reward, Alive or Dead! famous outlaw developed by these wild years had suffered more or less from this natural exaggeration and misrepresentation. But no outlaw before him had ever had such a host of admirers and partisans who fiercely gave the lie to any accusation of robbery or crime attributed to him. It was widely known that he had never earned a dollar in his outlaw career. It was sworn by many and reputable men that he had never stolen one. Few towns or villages on that border had no storekeeper who had not a tale to tell about Duane, the Lone Wolf. One afternoon, from the top of a long hill, Duane saw the green fields and trees and shining roofs of a town he considered must be Shirley; and at the bottom of the hill he came upon an intersecting road. There was a placard nailed on the cross-road sign-post. Duane rein near it and leaned close to read the faded print: $1,000 REWARD FOR BUCK DUANE DEAD OR ALIVE Peering closer to read the finer, more faded print, Duane learned that he was wanted for the murder of Mrs. Jeff Aiken at her ranch near Shirley. The month of September was named, but the date was illegible. The reward was offered by the woman's husband, whose name appeared, with that of a sheriff's, at the bottom of the placard. Duane read the thing twice. When he straightened he was sick with the horror of his fate, wild with passion at those misguided fools who could believe that he had harmed a woman. When Duane reached the crossing of the roads the name Fairfield on the sign-post seemed to be the thing that caused the confusion in favor of that direction. He answered here to unfathomable impulse. In Duane's state of mind clear reasoning, common sense, or keenness were out of the question. He went because he felt that he was courelled. Dusk had fallen when he rode into a town which inquiry discovered to be Fairfield. Captain MacNelly's camp was stationed just out of the village limits on the other side. No one except the boy Duane questioned appeared to notice his arrival. Like Shirley, the town of Fairfield was large and prosperous, compared to the innumerable hamlets dotting the vast extent of southwestern Texas. As Duane rode through, being careful to get off the main street, he heard the tolling of a church bell that was a melancholy reminder of his old home. There did not appear to be any camp on the outskirts of the town. But as Duane sat his horse, peering around and undecided what further move to make, he caught the glint of flickering lights through the shadows. Heading toward them, he rode per- --- haps a quarter of a mile to come upon a grove of mosquits. The brightness of several fires made the surrounding darkness all the blacker. Duane saw the moving forms of men and heard horses. He advanced naturally, expecting any moment to be halted. "Who goes there?" came the sharp call out of the gloom. call out of the room. Duane pulled his horse. The gloom was impenetrable. "One man—alone," replied Duane. "A stranger?" "Yes." "What do you want?" "I'm trying to find the ranger camp." "You've struck it. What's your errand?" "I want to see Captain MacNell." "Get down and advance. Slow. Don't move your hands. It's dark, but I can see." Duane dismounted and, leading his horse, slowly advanced a few paces. He saw a dully bright object, a gun, before he discerned the man who held it. A few more steps showed a dark figure blocking the trail. Here Duane halted. "Come closer, stranger. Let's have a look at you," the guard cried curly. Duane advanced again until he stared before the man. Here the ray of lights from the fire clicked upon Duane's face fantastically. "Reckon you're a stranger, sir." $1000 REWARD FOR BUCK DUANE ALIVE OR DEAD What's your name and your business with the captain!" Daune hesitated, pondering what best to say. "Tell Captain MacNelly I'm the man he's been asking to ride into his camp after dark," finally said Duane. The ranger bent forward to peer hard at this night visitor. His manner had been alert and now it became tense. "Come here—one of you men—quick," he called without turning in the least toward the camp-fire. "Hello! What's up, Pickens?" came the swift reply. It was followed by rapid thud of boots on soft ground. A dark form crossed the gleams from the firelight. Then a ranger loomed up, to reach the side of the guard. Daune heard whispering, the purport of which he could not catch. The second ranger swore under his breath. Then he turned away and started back. "Here, ranger, before you go, understand this. My visit is peaceful—friendly, if you'll let it be. Mind, I was asked to come here after dark." Duane's clear, penetrating voice carried far. The listening rangers at the cabin heard what he said. "He Pistol shot me, followed to wait," replied an author. Then a slim figure denounced himself from the dark, moving me into the camp-fire and hurried out. "Better be foxy, Cup," shouted a ranger in warning. "Shut up—all of you!" yelled Nelly, this officer, obviously Curtis. If Nelly, soon joined the rangers who were confronting Duane. He did no fear. He strode straight up to Duane. "I'm MacNelly," he said. "If you're the man don't mention your name—yet." All this seemed so strange to Duane, in keeping with much that had happened later. "Buck Duane! It's you?" he whispered eagerly. "Yes." "If I give my word you'll not be arrested—you'll be treated fairly—will you come into camp and consult with me?" "Duane, I'm sure glad to meet you," went on MacNelly and extended his hand. Amazed and touched, scarcely realizing this acuity Duane gave his hand and felt no unmistakable grip of warmth. "It doesn't seem natural," MacNelly, but I believe I'm glad to meet you," said Duane soberly. "You will be. Now we'll go to camp. Keep your life safe for the present." He left Duane in the camp for Continua EVER A GREAT NEW WORLD WAR HISTORY In addition to its containing a graphic account of the War, includes many chapters on subjects of vital interest.

Hannibal Shearn Shoots (Continued from Page 1) from him for Durant's use in a game and it was his intention to play him (Hannibal) in a game of poker and in this way use this money to beat him. CLAIMS SELF-DEFENSE He waned him to furnish money with which he himself would be beaten in the game. It was then that Durant attacked him with an iron bar. He retreated as far as he could and then he shot Durant once. The puzzling part of the whole business was that Shearn's brother was in the "pen" with him under a charge of stricting whiskey and stood at Hannibal's side while he was speaking. Hannibal Shearn was in his own apartment when he shot Alex Durant. He rents the house in conjunction with another party. He said that Alex Durant lived at 520 N. Second Street. SHEARN'S WIFE THERE. TOO. Another angle was given to the affair, when they said that Major Shearn's wife was locked up in that same "pax" upon a charge of storing whiskey. Major Shearn said he had nothing to do with the whiskey. He did not live with his wife. He lives at 401 S. Harrison Street and she resides at 140 S. Harrson S. It seems though that he and decided to call at his wife's house and the time selected was the worst in the world for him. Sergeant Dan W.

MUCH WHISKEY A large quantity of corn liquor was found the quantity being over a gallon. Judge Ingram had no recourse but to certify the case to the grand jury and Major wanted a bondsman to get him out. He was innocent. his wife having admitted that the whiskey belonged to her and not to him. Major wanted Attorney Benjamin Lovenstein, he was at Chesterfield C. H. that day Friday. November 30. "NOT SO WELL." A call at St. Phillips Hospital was answered with the statement that Alexander Durant's condition was not so good. The presumption was that he has a slim chance of recovering. Should he die the charge will be changed to murder—second degree murder, unless the facts stated are not corroborated. GRAVEL HILL NOTES (Henrico County, Va.) At S. P. M. Rev. H.

Furnishing the children of the day nursery with toys in advance of the Christmas season is one of Ward's unique and delightful laboratory methods of determining just what toys should be kept on hand for the holiday demands of Kris Kringle and his aids. Mrs. Fisher played with many groups of children at Olivet, taught a class of girls to sew on the toy machines set up marvelous bridges from Constructo toys, and learned from the children themselves just the things they want Santa to bring them. These toys, all approved by the hand-picked toys of children, took a prominent place in Mrs. Fisher's Toyland party of Nov. 30. The advance Christmas party was heard in millions of homes over the United States, when it broadcast at 12:30 during Warner Farm and Home hour, on the last day of November, over a network of stations covering the nation.

Dr.Frank Crane Says THE DOERS What this world needs is more doers and less talkers. The man we feel most grateful toward and regard most kindly is the one who does us a generous act and never says anything about it. We find it out by accident and our hearts warm to him. The man who is always saying, I am going to do this and that for you but does not do it, is a flunky. He wants the praise for generosity, but does not deliver the goods. So, the man who most truly reforms is the man who quits doing wrong, not the man who makes great promises. Most drunkards and most leaders of disorderly lives elsewise are great promisers. They will tell you, while in their cups, that they are never going to drink another drop. But the kind of reform today that we believe in is that of the man who quits doing wrong and makes no boast about it except to show his regret. It is human to err and to make mistakes. But when we have done so the most righteous thing we can do is to quit, not to pray and not to promise, nor to resolve. The first thing needed in a wrong doer is to quit his wrong doing. We are not going to turn for help to a higher power until we have ceased our wrong doing. The Bible says this of the first thing necessary: "Let the evil man forget his ways and the unrighteous man his thoughts." AUTOCASTER TROTTER PARTY One Thin Woman Gained 15 Pounds in 5 Weeks.

To clarify his statement regarding his observations at the Thanksgiving game at the University of Virginia in the Rev. R. V. Lancaster yesterday sent to The Times Dispatch the exact text of his remarks as published in the Frederick edi- ting Free Lance Star. The text follows: ... "One does not need to be a prudé to come back from the game in Charlottesville yesterday depressed. The sight of so many drunken boys and girls makes one wonder. I say the l. as. As a student at Princeton I have seen on several occasions as many as 70,000 people at the big games in the North but at no time have I ever seen so many drunks as year after year I notice among the 15,000 or 20,000 at the University of Virginia a for the Thanksgiving game. "The order of formation on the side lines yesterday seemed to be—1 a drunk student; 2 a sober student; 3 a drunk girl; 4 a sober drunk boy. And so they marched in endless formation. (In the grandstand, on the side lines, in the street after the game, everywhere—drunks. It seemed to be the thing to do, the atmosphere seemed to expect it. In no other way could one be clever. "There are many professors in the faculties of the University of Virginia and the University of North Carolina, but there is one man in each of these institutions at whose feet I would lay down the blame for this sort of thing and he is the president. He can control it. He can stop it. If he is the type of man who winks at it and doesn't care to stop it, or if he lacks the ability to stop it there is only one sensible thing for the people who are in control of such matters in Virginia and North Carolina to do and that is, to make him get out." "Something does seem to be wrong with our colleges. For them to make trumps out of so many of our boys and girls is a fearful price to pay for what they give. I think the trouble is that too much emphasis is put on classroom work and too little on campus life. Nobody seems willing to take the trouble to bother with what a student does outside the class-room. If you don't believe this go to any college dance and count the number of professors there. The chances are you won't find a single one but you will find enough drunks to fill every chair in the faculty. See the Bohemian way they live in the frat houses. Watch them bumming rides on the highway over every week-end. Go to almost any dormitory and you will find it dirty and unknot. "How terrible all this is. They are really not men and women, they are only boys and girls. And no amount of classroom work can stone for the blasting of character. What we cram into our head of Latin and Greek, philosophy and all the rest, is something less than pifle if in the process we have filled our hearts with sin and blown deceyn and righteousness to the winds. They are the abiding things." Rev. Samuel D. Price, D.D. All of Philemon should be read and it will not take long for there is only one chapter to this epistle. It is one of the four letters written by Paul during the first imprisonment at Rome. It was probably dispatched at the same time as Ephesians and Tychicus was one of the messengers (Eph. 6:21-23; Col. 4:7-9). Paul as a world citizen had many friends. Twenty-two persons are here named in ten verses and there are 71 named by him in the Acts and his epistles. One was Philemon of Colosseo who had probably found the truth in Jesus Christ when Paul was working in Ephesus and vicinity during a two year mission. Onesimus was a slave who ran away from Philemon and finally reached the great city of Rome. He may have learned of Paul and sought audience with him "in his own hired house" for all had access to him. Or, it may be that, learning of Paul whom he had served when visiting his master in Colosseo, he came to hear without being seen and Paul remembered him at first glance for his kindly attention in the past. The whole story is soon told. Paul gave him all the attention possible and makes clear the truth of salvation as it is in Christ, showing that a man can have the utmost spiritual freedom though serving as a slave. For, is not Paul bound to a soldier and a slave of Jesus Christ? And yet his soul is free indeed and he is carrying on a very extensive ministry. The only manly thing is for Onesimus to return to Philemon. There is the added problem, for evidently some goods were stolen at the time. Then Paul, having urged him to make the right decision, plans the most favorable approach possible by writing a letter in friendship to his former host and continued well-wisher. Read again how Paul plays upon the personal and asks that Onesimus be received in his place. The stolen goods are mentioned and Paul, though needing every coin, offers to make good in behalf of the slave. Since acquaintance is evidently close at hand the Apostle says that he hopes to follow the letter soon and requests that a bed be made ready for him. In all this we have a fine expression of the Brotherhood of Man through Jesus Christ the Elder Brother. When all follow these principles of adjustment of difficulties the "joy of the Lord" (vs. 20) will indeed be shed abroad. There never can be another world war when mankind follows this Pauline spirit. Naturally we wonder what happened when Onesimus reached Colosseo. If Philemon was surprised when he saw his direct approach the matter was explained as Paul's letter was read. Appeal had been made to the master's Christianity and it was announced that the slave had also become a believer. So the lash was not used that night and trust was never abused in the future.
