THE RICHMOND LIBERAL-MINDED WHITE FOLK OPPOSE RACE HATRED Colored Folk Not Seeking Encroachment--Racial Integrity Not an Issue. Certain That Citizens Will Appeal to the Courts for Equal Justice.

Ingram on the bench of the Hustings Courts - Courtesy, Richmond, Va., News-Leader VOLUME XLVI, NO. 13 THE R FOLI Stage Colored Fo Certain Common Council Approves Ordinance, Then Argues Matter for Over Hour—Price and Britton Ask Delay of Month. Common Council passed the segregation ordinance in thirty seconds last Monday night with only two dissenting votes, and then discussed the matter from all angles for an hour and a half. The discussion followed an appeal by Councilman Lawrence T. Price and James H. Britton to have the vote reconsidered. The vote on reconsideration lost by 17 to 2 and the paper now goes to the Board of Aldermen. Councilman Price and Britton asked for a delay of one month, and the acceptance of the offer of bribbness and civic clubs to make a survey of conditions surrounding the Negro, stating their belief that from the information gathered by the survey an ordinance might be framed that would be more apt to stand the test of constitutionality and less apt to strain the relations between the races. Both favored some form of segregation, opposed action that seemed hasty and based on inadequate information. Fears Race Animosity "We are flaunting a red flag in the face of the Negroes by this ordinance. It marks the beginning of a difference between the races that Richmond will live to regret. I am in favor of segregation of some kind, but not in the form provided here. I do not want to be a member of any body that passes hastily legislation of such vast importance. "The Negroes are not responsible for the white people moving out of Marshall Street and other sections. We should divorce racial integrity from segregation; one pertains to blood and the other to property. There is no connection between the two in this instance, said Dr. Price, Councilman Brandon Brown, the measure the most important and fascinating that had ever come up in the council chambers and doubted its constitutionality. He urged further consideration and the gathering of all data on Negro conditions that might be available in the hope that a better solution would be found. WouldIgnore "PaperCriticism" Councilman Sullivan said that he would have voted for delay had he not been informed that in the face of the pending legislation a Negro family had moved into property at Twenty-second and Broad Streets yesterday, in the heart of residential areas and within two blocks of St. John's Church.

THANKS TO HELEN HENRY ALLENTOWN PENN! THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA The oldest music hitherto recorded on the American continent was unpublished and reconstructed for its first hearing at the recent Sea Music Festival at Vancouver. On this occasion we heard three song-dances ascribed to the Indian Chief Mamperou by Marc Lescarbot, the young lawyer from Paris who in the year 1609 published an entertaining account of the life of the French garrison at Port Royal in Nova Scotia. Lescarbot, like all educated men of his day, was something of a musician, and wrote down in sci-fi fiction the melody of songs he heard this Indian chief sing, but no reason historian appears to have noted the importance of this notation. He never in making an English lesson from the French of Louvigny or Montimy's "Ordre de Bon- Tempa." John Murray Gibbon of Montreal was so impressed with the character of this music that he suggested to Dr. Healey Willan of the Toronto Conservatory of Music that he arrange it for modern production. To an Indian the melody is only half the music and the problem was to discover the original rhythm. Dr. Willan was able to find in the traditional tribal music of the Melliecte Indians, who are descendants of the Sourquoiqs of Lescaroqs's time. three traditional dance rhythms which exactly fit the melodic line of the notes recorded by the French historian three hundred years ago. In this manner three delightful song-dances were reconstructed and incorporated in the ballad opera "The Order of Good Cheer," which was produced at Vancouver's Sea Music --- By Albert T. Reid honest li'l cuss ye ever seen er may be president of the Albert T. Reid AUTOCASTER Festival. Hitherto the oldest group identified with Canada has been the hymn "Jesus Abattonin." which Father Brebeuf translated into the Huron dialect in 1642 for the Indian converts at Quebec. The song-dances of Chief Mamberton are, however, native to Canada and were noted by Lescarbon in the year 1606. The probability is that they were old even at that time, as folktunes are made down by Indian musicians from generation to generation. "L'ordre de Bon-Temps," declares with, the german life of Champlin and his men more than 300 years ago at Port Royal in Nova Scotia was first sung in the original French host May at the French-Canadian Folk Festival in Quebec, with the assistance of five major artists from the Metropolitan Opera of New York.

There were eaten last year. They were made, well cooked, eaten at regular hours, and chewed slowly to avoid swallowing small pieces whole the "hot dogs" are good for men But, eaten between meals, haplacked and rapidly, they contribute to the 50,000,000 cases of American dyspepsia. A child in Chicago, five years old, born without feet, will be enabled to walk, run and play by surgeons operating on the muscles of the upper leg. That is an interesting miracle, and there are many others in modern science. Those born deaf and dumb, that never hear a sound, learn to speak and understand the speech of others. With imagination's power, having seen the earth or the sun or the sound of a friend's voice, they are able to understand beauty and friendship. That answers those who ask: "Is there really such a thing as a soul?" William Hohenzoller, once Emperor, is seventy. He looks well, but disillusioned, wears 'a full beard, mustaches no longer waxed or turned up at the point. He will celebrate by publishing a book called "My Ancestors." It could be interesting, going back to the early money-lending family of East Prussia that got its name from high interest rates. But it's hard to write impartially about your own people. William decided that some things were wrong in the Hohenzoller family, and blames its troubles, passion, sudden rages, bad temper, etc., on a woman, Marla Prawlowa, Russian by blood, Hohenzoller by accident of marriage. That reminds you of Adam blaming Eve. William says Maria was "the villa of my family." His predecessor, Frederick the Great, would know better. Maria Pawlowa, because she was wild, violent, unguverable, may have given Prussia's ruling family its genius. Use of electric machinery in the home, sweepers, washing machines, fans, irons, managers, exercising apparatus, irons, managers, increased enormously every year. L. J.

The antiquated cook store has gone the way of the old oaken outlet, while the washboard has joined the microscope lamp in oblivion. Despite the fact that many women still lack system in their work and that some housewives devote an average of fifteen hours a week to cooking, washing, cleaning and cooking for the family. The woman is practicing home reform. She finds ample time for outside interests without it in any way jeopardizing her job, a wife and mother. "America is leading the world in conservation of woman power," says President S. H. Altorfer of Altorfer Brothers Company, Peoria, Ill., manufacturers of A-B-C washing machines. In no other country has so much done to release woman from domestic drudgery. Science is modifying the home. Not only has it revolutionized the kitchen but it has speed from the upstairs guest room down through the house to the laundry. "Beauty in the laundry-room is an innovation.

A bill in Indiana's Senate suggests "flogging for male criminals who carry weapons while committing crime."

China, with almost as many problems as she has inhabitants, decides to cut her army in two, leaving ONLY 715,000 fighting men to be fed by others. ONLY 40 per cent of the nation's total revenue is to be spent for military expenses. If those 715,000 men could be put to work raising food for the starving, and 40 per cent of national revenue devoted to the same starving, that would probably please the ghost of old Confucius.

Injured in Opera Mary Garden, opera star, injured accidentally during an opera scene in a Chicago Theatre, stifled her cries until she was carried behind the wings, and released to allow news of her injury to be made public.

"You see, I have so many things to think of that I forget, while you children have only your school." The bell in the Rabbitville school house was still ringing as the bunnies sampered out of the house all dressed up in their Sunday-go-to meeting clothes. On the way they were met by Tessie Squirrel, who was also arrayed in her "besteest" outfit. "Are either of you going to speak a piece?" asked Tessie, almost out of breath from running. "No-o-o." hesitated Bobbie. "Are you?" "Yes, but it is very short," replied Torgie. "What is it?" asked Biffle, all curiosity. "Wait and you will get a great surprise," said Tessie, as they went up the Rabbittville school steps. The sun was shining full in the school room when the exercises began and when all those who had to speak pieces were through, the teacher said: "We will now hear what it was that made Abraham Lincoln great. Tessie will you tell us?" Tessie Squirrel walked upon the platform amid a profound silence and said. "The thing which made Abraham Lincoln great was his LOVE." And as the bunnies went home, Billie said to Bobbie: "Let's tell Mother what made Abraham Lincoln great." "Yes," replied her brother. "I know now what makes Mother great!"

SATURDAY...FEBRUARY 9, 1929 "SEGREGATION AND THE COUNCIL" The Common Council of this city at its regular meeting last Monday night passed the Woody segregation ordinance as recommended by the Committee on Ordinances by a vote of 17 to 2. It was vigorously opposed by Councilmen Price and Britton, who favored a postponement with a view of having the situation analyzed and a practical solution of the questions raised and the conditions alleged to exist dealt with in a manner satisfactory to all parties concerned. This was done with a view of bettering conditions in the matter without any injury to the city as a whole. The political leaders would not have this way, but preferred working upon the prejudices of the people and thereby awaken ill-feeling between the white and colored people of this community. It was a case of the demagogue and the politician against the economist and the statesman. In this connection, it may be said that the Rev. Samuel L. Dunville, pastor of the Denny Street Methodist Church (white) delivered a ringing discourse in which he declared that there would be no segregation in after life and he questioned whether "God will have the future realms of bliss divided into zones into which He will place the different races." But he summed up the whole situation when he concluded as follows: "Social justice—fair dealing—is always retroactive. There could be a 'gentleman's agreement' among property owners, and also between the races which would stop all of the injustices to both races. Then, too: When you improve the living, health and sanitary conditions of the Negroes, you will be safeguarding the lives and health of the whites. If the Negroes who work in the homes and hotels come from unsanitary homes they will spread disease. If, on the other hand, their living conditions are healthful, the general health of the city will be necessarily improved." This is the solution of the whole question. It is one to which every loyal, patriotic colored man will subscribe. No law is needed in this matter. "The Richmond, Va., News Leader, in its issue of the 5th instant, says the last word with reference to this matter. Here it is: "The Common Council last night, as anticipated, passed the segregation ordinance by a decisive vote and refused to allow even thirty days of a survey of actual conditions. The Board of Aldermen undoubtedly will concure. No poll of that body thus far made by the opponents of the ordinance shows more than two votes that can reasonably be counted against it. The Mayor has said that he will sign the measure if it comes to bim. "Until this outcome was certain, those who regarded this ordinance as dangerous and unjustified felt that they should combat it and agitate against it. Now that passage is certain, the only recourse is to the courts, which, in the opinion of this newspaper, will certainly declare the ordinance unconstitutional. When that is done, the situation created by the infiltration of Negroes into white neighborhoods will have to be studied anew and, unfortunately, in a spirit less co-operative than if it had been approached as a civic problem without recourse to new legal restrictions. When that time comes, and the ordinance is thrown out, Richmond will find that the problem involves the improvement of the present Negro districts, the establishment of new residential areas for Negroes and some method of financing the transfer to Negroes of those squares from which white people move away. These are three large matters, but they will not be beyond the capacity of Richmond to handle. "It is possible that the segregation ordinance may be tested under the statute allowing the court to enter declaratory decrees without waiting for actual injury to be done. If this be so, the unconstitutionality of the ordinance may be established at an early date. Pending judicial decision, the whole question may well be dropped from public discussion for the time. Further argument will not keep the Aldermen from passing it or the Mayor from approving it, and will not promote that state of mind in which Richmond must work out the problem with justice and humanity, in a spirit of fair play to all." This then tells the whole story. There is nothing for colored folks to do but to "mark time" for the time being. The white interests that have opposed this ordinance are in a position to "see the matter through." Should they decline or fail so to do, it will be time enough for colored folks to act. When this crowd proceeds to hold down such citizens as the Hon. John Stewart Bryan, a Virginian with a world-wide reputation, those citizens composing the Richmond Chamber of Commerce, white Ministerial Union, the Interracial Alliance and the representatives of the Central Labor Union and Trade Council, all white and influential, they have reached the "end of their tether." Brethren and sisters, something is about to happen. The language of the editorial department of the News Leader means much and the utterances of the Richmond, Va., Times-Dspatch mean equally as much. Something is bound to happen "in little or no time." When this prediction proves to be unfounded, then it will be time enough for the colored folks to move in this matter. We wanted peace and still want it, but the "fire-eaters" and Negro-haters want war. Let all of the religious colored folks in Richmond proceed to get down on their knees in prayer. INSURGENT DEMOCRATS. The action of the anti-Smith Democrats, also known as Hoover Democrats, at their conference last Tuesday in requesting of all the members of that organization to stay out of the Democratic party recommended the calling an anti-Smith Democratic convention for the purpose if the body deems proper to nominate a ticket for the election in November, 1929, and the further action in appointing a committee of one from each congressional district to have charge of such a convention spells the formal organization of another political party in this State. It is emphasis to the demand that Chairman John J. Raskob retire from the formal control of the party and that the enthusiastic followers of Hon. Alfred E. Smith shall release their "throttle-hold" on the Democratic party of the nation. It is needless to say that neither ex-Governor Smith or Chairman John J. Raskob will not agree to do this. They will refuse to deal with the insurgents. This places Hon. Harry Flood Byrd in a most peculiar position. He is invited to "change his political white horse going East for a roan mare going West." He must yield up his place of vantage in the national organization in order to retain his successful leadership in the State organization. A question has been squarely propounded to him and for the first time during his great leadership he is discreetly silent. What will the great Tammany organization think of his attitude in this matter? The outcome of the whole affair will be three parties in Virginia with a possible coalition between the Republican organization and the anti-Smith insurgents. Bishop Cannon's letter sent to the Lynchburg conference is a masterly political document and would indicate that he is more politician than he is bishop of a great Church. He sees his advantage and he is setting his sails to land the doubtful members of his party by professing to be more doubtful in surrendering his allegiance to the Democratic party than any member could possibly be. It will require superb leadership on the part of the Democratic leaders of this State to "play a game" that will deplete the ranks of the insurgents and secure members, when added to the roster of the faithful regulars to insure a majority at the polls for the recognized Alfred E. Smith regulars. We are on the eve of a great political upheaval. Colored voters if properly listed and organized can "cut a figure" that will be far-reaching and bring political respect and encouragement to their numbers for many years to come. They can vote with the regular Democrats, with the anti-Smith Democrats or with the Republicans, or with any combination of them. It is time for their leaders to consult together and to act intelligently in this matter. United effort should be the watchword. To divide up will be to win the contempt and derision of all parties.

One of the first acts of the new administration was to have a part in the installation service, and the newly elected pastor of Mr. Carmel Baptist Church. The ministers of the conference gathered at the church on Tuesday night, January 29th. A program was offered which was featured by a brilliant address by Rev. J. J. Mickens and a rousing speech of welcome to the new pastor on behalf of the conference by Dr. J. H. Binford. Dr. Ransome presided in his usual graceful and unassuming manner, which marks him as a man of God and one who has so equipped himself that he "needeth not be ashamed." Dr. W. T. Johnson succeeds Dr. Ransome as vice-president. With these two outstanding divines at the helm, the conference to surpass even its most brilliant rector, the post. So well pleased are the members of the conference that there is already some whispers pertaining to a reconsideration of the recently adopted rule limiting the president's tenure of office to two years. Ministers gather at the conference sessions on Monday from far and near. They come not only to be refreshed spiritually, but to be stimulated mentally. With officers such as now occupy the chairs of president and vice-president, no member need leave the conference feeling that his coming has been in vain. The entire officiary for the year is as follows: Dr. W. L. Ransome, president. Dr. W. T. Johnson, vice-president. --- Artist Church, First and Second Sts. Hill, D. D., Pastor. January 10, 1929.

TEX RICKARD Though Dead Yet Speaketh His Estimate of "Jack" Johnson and the Latter's Description Jeffries-Johnson Fight at Reno, Nevada. His Estimate of "Jack" Johnson and the Latter's Description Jeffries-Johnson Fight at Reno, Nevada. (By Tex Rickard, in collaboration on Jim Jeffries was not actually knocked down and out by Jack Johnson. In fact, as referee I did not count him out—made no count at all. This statement is made in answer to several requests I have had to tell just how Jack Johnson knocked out Jeffries on that memorable Fourth of July in Reno. The end came after it was very apparent that Jim Jeffries was beaten. Johnson was entirely too clever for him and seemed to have more physical strength. Jack was gradually wearing the big fellow down and had him wobbling about the ring. In the twelfth round, after Jeffries had been knocked down and laid up against the ropes and had showed that he had no more chance of winning Sam Berger jumped in the ring. "That's enough!" he said to me TEX CATCHES JOHNSON'S ARM. Just as he said it Johnson had drawn back for a final blow and I caught his arm. That was the end of the fight. Jeffries was on his feet. It was scored, a technical knockout, of course. In a few minutes Johnson would have had him out. Sam Berger was very wise and sensible in stopping it when he did. For me the end of that famous fight was a great relief. My job of refereeing had been no trouble at all. The men fought cleanly, and there was little for me to do except keep them at it. The greatest relief, though, was that the fight at last, had been successfully pulled off. I knew it was a financial success before we entered the ring. Hundreds of those holding tickets for the fight in San Francisco had exchanged their tickets for seats at Reno. The arena was full. JEFFERIES MAKES MISTAKE. At the very start of the fight, Jeffries made the mistake of trying to box with Johnson. The darky was entirely too clever for him. In the first round however Johnson was extremely cautious. He feinted around to be sure of his ground. For three minutes, he took no chances whatever. Johnson was a very clever ring general. He was trying to see how far he could go. When Jeffries tried to box him, Jack began to grn. As the fight progressed Johnson knew he was going to win. Then he his boutsiness came to the surface. He could not resist making jokes. In one mixup Jeffries missed and Johnson soaked him a good one. "Mr. Jeffries" said the darky, his hips paring in a big grn, "ain't nise use in talking dis is one time you see me use Waterloo! Jes go an' tell 'em I said so. Yas, sr—Waterloo is right." JOHNSON "KIDS" CORBETT. The Jeffries crowd still had hopes and were yelling encouragement from all parts of the arena. Jim Corbett second to Jeffries, was for lowing every move and making occasional comment. Finally John son caught his eye. Again he smiled—showed those gold teeth. . . . "Mr. Corbett," he remarked, looking over the edge of the ring, "you better come up here and help cut Mr. Jeffries." . . . A few mutes later he spoke to Corbett again. "Can't do no good out the e. Mr. Jim" said the grinning darky. "This Mr. Jeffries needs somebody up here, and right now!" . . . There was never a gamer fighter than Jim Jeffries. He gave all he had, but he was up against it. I don't know if anyng could have saved him, there is no doubt in my mind that, the, stomach, trouble weakened him. He appeared heavy and slow moving from the start. When it was all over I hurried to find out just how we stood finan cially. The receipts for that fight were $270 7151. I suppose my smile would have been as golden as that of Jack Johnson if I had had the gold teeth. After all the troubles and irritations I was a big winner.

It is in order to confess our sins before we seek favors from those who has been wronged by our acts. Note most carefully that Jesus heard that the way in which we forgive our debtors is the stand-by which we seek pardon from our heavenly Father.

By this I mean a cream that best suits your skin's condition; one that will correct a condition that is not normal. And that cream will depend on the individual condition of your skin. Then the application of your moist-tightening preparation should follow and this should be applied with four upward motions that tone and heat followed by a gentle patten in five spots that will stir up the circulation and help to distribute the fatty tissues. Regardless of one's features, nothing is so charming as a soft, complexion that radiates health and vitality; nothing is so detrimental as the clouded, sluggish skin. Indeed, the first draws us into involuntary motions of delicacy itself inward and makes us realize how beautiful even the regular features seem—against the background of a lovely complexion. And what a mission lies before of us who have not now a beautiful skin! With each day's improvement under proper care we do send out a message of hope to others, for, as the line above suggests—our changed complexions are to them a mirror which shows them theirs changed, too.

Wales Buys Champ To Head Herd THE ROYAL RESIDENCE IN ALBERTA THE ROYAL CALGARY, ALBERTA—The Prince of Wales has purchased Bailcarn Rotax, champion two-year old Shorthorn bull of Scotland for $2,200. The animal will be added to the breeding herd on the prince's ranch at High River, Alta, according to Prof. W. L. Carlyle, superintendent of the farm who completed the deal. The bull was bought in a sale of livestock in Calgary, attended by breeders from all parts of the United States and Canada. It is said to be one of the finest Shorthorns ever trapped to North America from the British Isles. It was raised on the famous breeding establishment of F. L. Wallace of Meldrum, Aberdeen, Scotland, and was in a ship to twelveen Shorthorn bulls on cows sent to Western recently. Prince Edward's ranch comprises 4,000 acres in the foothills of the Rocky mountains and represents an investment of $250,000 in stock, buildings, and equipment. The prince maintains an up-to-date ranch house in which he lives on his visits to the farm. The prince's ranch has become one the foremost stock breeding In connection with the treatment for the thick or oily skin I want to say that the first important step to be taken and considered from an extraneous angle is the cleansing. Of all skins, the oily type seems to attract more of the undesirable elements in the air such as dust and dirt. Furthermore, on account of the size of the pores, small particles of coarse powder and old makeup become very easily imbedded, and if a thorough cleansing is neglected for any length of time, the pores will become stretched and further enlarged. This is something which should most certainly be guarded against, and the thorough daily cleansing will do it. For oily skin I advocate the daily use of a washing preparation, preferably in the form of a pore paste that really penetrates beneath the surface and dissolve the particles lodged in the pores. These washing preparations do more than merely cleanse the pores. They have a certain gritty action on the skin which eliminates all the poison and waste material. I also recommend the occasional use of a penetrative washing preparation for any skin of heavy texture, even though the pores are not enlarged and there is little tendency to oiliness and blackheads.

He has already taken 300 boys to Alaska, and this will be his seventh annual personally conducted tour.

Nation Moves to Preserve Home Of George Washington's Sister THE MUSEUM About Your Health Things You Should Know by John Joseph Gaines, M. D. HARMFUL DESSERTS. I am indebted to the Health Commissioner of a North Carolina city, Dr. S. G. Jett, for this valuable bit of information, which I am passing on to my readers. No less an authority than George F. Buchan, M.D. of the Royal College of Physicians, of Britain, and member of the American Public Health Association, warns our people against the common habit of ending meals with sweets, which cling to crevices, get between the teeth, and set up fermentation with its many evils, and leading to dental decay. In a radio message to Dr. Jett, he adds: "The correct way to finish a meal is with fruit, coffee, and a cigarette." (Don't endorse the coffin nail.) "The hardens the gums and cleans the teeth; the coffee stimulates the flow of saliva in the mouth, and acts as a mouth wash; while the cigarette disinfects (?) the mouth and soothes the nerves." Interroga-tion mine. in. Buchen is right about the harm of sugars—the virtue in fruits—the invigorating coffee. Sweets, such as preserves, which have no place on my table, are 99-per cent cane sugar, with the native virtues of the fruit entirely eliminated. Why Preserves?

Phillips Oppenheim ILLUSTRATED BY FRANK B. DRUEN Fourth Installment WHAT HAPPENED BEFORE Palermo is the scene. There an exile, Adrienne di Marion, has come for love, Adrienne Cartuccio, who spurs him in loving an Englishman, who loves Adrienne saint. Leonardo sees his sister Martha, who tells him his love for Adrienne is hope he pleads with her to arrange an marriage. He may face, between adrienne and him. She consents. That night the Englishman is informed of an attempt being made to adrienne. Signor Marion, who are walking, brigands employed by a rejected suitor, on a lonely path, the scene, and proves to recruit the lieutenant, and proves afflicted by the failure of his scheme. He marries the lieutenant who knows that he is the instigator of the attempted attack. The Englishman now sees Adrienne often, the Englishman at sight, the lieutenant for whom he looks up, sees the Sicilian, and scents trouble. "We sat here a week ago," recalls Leonardo, Lord St. Maurice nooks. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY "It is well. It is of the events which have followed that night that I desire to speak, if you, Signor, will grant me a few moments of your time." "Certainly," the Englishman replied courteously. After all, perhaps the yellow did not mean to quarrel "I regret exceedingly having to trouble you, Signor, with a little personal history," the Sicilian continued. "I must tell you, at the commencement, that for five years I have been a sailor for the hand of the Signorina Adrienne Cartuccio, my cousin." "Second cousin, I believe." Lord St. Maurice interposed. The Sicilian waved his hand. It was of no consequence. "Certain political differences with the Imperial party at Rome," he continued, "culminated two years ago in my banishment from Italy and Sicily. You, I believe, Lord St. Maurice, are of ancient family, and it is possible that you may understand to some extent the bitterness of exile from a country, and a home which has been the seat of my family for nearly a thousand years. Such a sentence is not banishment as the world understands it; it is a living death! But Signor it was not all. It was no longer the worst. Alas, that I, a stairman, should live to confess it. But to be parted from the woman I love was even a sorer trial. Yet I endured it. I endured it; hoping against hope for a recall. My sister and I were orphans. She made her home with the Signorina Cartuccio and the news of her continually sometimes my cousin herself wrote to me. It was these letters which preserved my reason, and consciously or unconsciously, they breathed to me of hope." "Not Adrienne's, I'll swear," the fugishman muttered to himself. He was a true Briton, and there was twenty of dormant jealousy not very far from the surface. The Sicilian heard the words, and its eyes flashed. "The Signorina Cartuccio, if you please, Signor," he remarked coldly. "We are in a public place." Lord St. Maurice felt that he could afford to accept the rebuke, and he bowed his head. "My remark was not intended to be audible!" he declared. "For two years I bore with my wretched life," the Sicilian continued, "but at last my endurance came to an end. I determined to risk my liberty, that I might hear my fate from her own lips. I crossed the Alps without molestation, and even entered Rome. There I was watched, but not interfered with. The conclusion I came to was, that as long as I lived the life of an william citizen, and showed no interest in politics, I was safe. I ceased to Palermo unharmed. I have seen my appeal." The Englishman dropped his eyes and laughed the aft from his cigar. The fellow was coming to the point at last. "You, Signor," the Sicilian continued, in a tone which, although it was no louder, seemed to gain intensity from the smoldering passion underneath, "you, Signor, know what my answer was, for you were the cause. I have not told you this much of my story to win your pity. I simply call it that I may reason with you. I have tried to make you understand something of the strength of my love for the Signorina. Do you think that, after what I have risked, after what I have suffered, that I shall stand side, and see another man, an alien, take her from me? I come of a race, Hercules, of the ancient women they love chosen for other men's wives. Have you ever heard of Count Hubert di Marioni, who, with seven hundred men, carried off a princess of Austria from her father's court, and brought her safely through Italy to be one of the mothers of my race? It was five hundred years ago, and, among the ruins of ancient kingdoms, the Marionis have Suddenly, with the swiftness of a tiger-cat, the Sicilian leaped forward and struck the Englishman on the cheek also fallen in estate. But the old spiritlings. Lord St. Maurice, I am not a blood-thirsty man. I do not wish your life. Go back to your country, and choose for a bride one of her own daughters. Give up all thought of the Signorina di Cartamara, or, as surely as the moon yonder I dawn upon you and me, I shall kill you. Lord St. Maurice, saw his cigar away and shamed his shoulders. The affair was going to be serious, then. "You must forgive me, Signor, if you not quite follow you," he said slowly. "The custom in our countries dumbless differs. In England it is the lady who chooses, and it is considered—pardon me—ill-mannered for a rejected suitor to have anything more to say." "As you remark, the ideas and customs of our countries differ," the Suddenly, with the swiftness of a ward and struck the Englishman on Sicilian rejoined. "Here a nobleman of my descent would consider it an everlasting shine to stand quietly on one side, and see the woman whom he worshipped become the bride of another man, and that man an alien. He would be esteemed, and justly, a coward. Let us waste no more words. Signor. I have sought you to night to put this matter plainly before you. Unless you leave this island, and give up your pretensions to the hand of the Signorina Cartuccio, you die. You have climbed for the last time to the Villa Fioleas. Swear to go there no more. Leave leave this island before day breaks—no sorrow or bloody shall stain its shores. By the unbroken and oath of a Marioni, I swear it." To Lord St. Maurice, the Sicilian's words and gestures seemed only grotesque. He looked at him a little contemptuously—a thin, shrunken-up figure, ghastly pale, and seeming all the thinner on account of his somber black attire. What a husband for Adrienne! How had he dared to love so magnificent a creature. The very idea of such a man threatening him seemed absurd to Lord St. Maurice, au athlete of public school and college renown, with muscles like iron, and the stature of a guardsman. He was angry, and he had not a particle of fear in his stock of patience was getting exhausted. "How are you going to do the killing?" he asked. "Pardon my ignorance, but it is evidently one of the customs of the country which has not been explained to me. How do you manage it?" "I should kill you in a duel!" the Sicilian answered. "It would be easily done." The Englishman burst out laughing. It was too grotesque, almost like a huge joke. "Damn you and your duels!" he said, rising to his feet, and towering over his companion. "Look, me. Mr. di Marion. I've listened to you seriously because I felt heartily sorry for you; but I've had enough of it. I don't know whether you understand the slang of my country. If you do you'll understand what I mean when I tell you that you've been talking 'bally rot.' We may be a rough lot, we Englishmen, but we're not cowards, and no one but a coward would dream of giving a girl up for such a tissue of whispermen. Be a man, sir, and get over it, and look here—none of this sort of business!" He drew the dagger from his breast pocket, and patted it. The Sicilian was speecked and livid with rage. "You are a coward!" he hissed. "You shall fight with me!" "That I won't," Lord St. Maurice answered good-humoredly. "Just take my advice. Make up your mind that we both can't have her, and she's chosen me, and come and give me your hand like a man. Think it over, now, before the morning, Good-night!" The Sicilian sprang up, and looked rapidly around. At an adjoining table he recognized two men, and touched one on the shoulder. "Signors!" he cried, "and you, Signor le Capitaine, pardon me if I ask you for your hearing for an instant. This—gentleman here has insulted me, and declines to give me satisfaction. I have called him a cow- ard and a rascal, and I repeat it! His name is Lord St. Maurice. If he forfeits his right to be considered a gentleman, I demand that his name be struck off the visitors' club." The three men had risen to their feet. Two of them were gentlemen of the neighborhood with whom L. St. Maurice had a bowing acquaintance. The third was a French officer. They looked inquiringly at Lord St. Maurice. "It's quite true, gentlemen," he said with his self-passion. "He's been all the men all the names under the sun, and I have declined to give him what he calls satisfaction. I hope the least objection to your knowing." The two Palermitans looked at another doubtfully. The officer, giving his moustache a twist, stepped forward and bowed. "Might we inquire your reasons?" a tiger-cat, the Sicilian, leaped for- n the cheek. declining the duel?" he asked. The Englishman shrugged his shoulders. "Certainly," he answered. "In the first place, I am an officer in the service of Her Majesty the Queen, and duelling is strictly forbidden in the second, Signor di Marion, is too excited to know what he is talking about." "In England, Signor, your first objection is valid; here, it is scarcely so. As to the latter, Shannon is Count seems now to be perfectly composed. I am on the committee or the club, and I fear that I must erase your name if you persist in your refusal." "I don't care two straws about your club," Lord St. Maurice answered carelessly. "As for the duel, I decline it, once and for all. We Englishmen have a code of honor of our own, and it is more to us than the custom of the countries which we chance to visit. I wish you good-night, gentlemen." They fell back, impressed in spite of themselves by the coolness and hauteur of his words. Suddenly, with the swifteness of a tiger-cat, the Sicilian leaped forward and struck the Englishman on the cheek. "Perhaps you will tell us all, Signor, how the men of your country resent an insult such as that," he cried. Every one turned round at the sound of the scuffle. The eyes of all were upon the Englishman, who stood there, head and shoulders above all the crowd, with blazing eyes and pale cheeks. He was in a towering passion, but his voice never shook or faltered. "You shall see for yourself, Signor!" he cried. The Sicilian struggled, but he was like a child in the Englishman's arm. He had caught him up in a vice-like grasp, and held him high over the heads of the astonished outlaws. For a moment he seemed as power he were going to throw him right out of the restaurant on to the alarma, but at the last moment he changed his mind, and with a contemptuous gesture set him down in the midst of them, breathless and choking. "You can send your seconds as soon as you like," he said shortly. "Good-evening, gentlemen." They fell back before him like sheep, leaving a broad way right into the hotel, through which he passed, stern and self-possessed. The Sicilian watched him curiously, with twitching lips. "There goes a brave man," whispered one of the Palermitans to the French officer. "But his days are numbered." The Frenchman gazed at the Sicilian and nodded. There was death in his face. Two men stood facing one another on a narrow belt of sand, stripped to the shirt, and with rapers in their hands. One was the Sicilian, Leonardo di Marioni, the other the Englishman, Lord St. Maurice. Their attitude spoke for itself. They were to fight for each other's life.

EIGHT Columbia "Magic Notes" WIGGLY...WAGGLY New Judges Here (Continued from page 5) spoken in whispers, so to speak. AN OFFICER AT THE DOOR. An officer at the door kept out the regular court patrons and wittedness. The bench had been converted into a large floral offering containing the various contributions from organizations and individuals while a fine ebony, silver mounted gavel was the gift of the court officials. Chairs had been placed for distinguished guests, while Clerk Ben Tucker kept his position, apparently unmindful of the presentation. the like of which had never before been seen in the Police Court chamber. CHAIRMAN UMLAUF PRESIDES Councilman Jacob Umlauf was presented to the assembled throng by Judge John L. Ingram as master of ceremonies. Rev. L. R. Ware pastor of Laurel Street Methodist Church offered a most impressive prayer and he did not hurry in so doing. Then followed the presentation of Judge Beverly T. Crump, and in so doing Chairman Umlauf made the amusing mistake of calling him Judge Beverly Tucker. When the mistake was called to his attention he hastily corrected it, while the distinguished jurist, who had come forward to speak quietly but humorously remarked that he was ready to perform the service in part or in his full name. A GLOWING TRIBUTE. He paid a glowing tribute to Judge T. Gray Haddon, who sat listening to the many kind things being said about him. Judge Frank T. Sutton, of the Law, and Equity Court Part II spoke and also Com monwealth's Attorney Dave E. Satterfield and Attorney James W. Gordon president of the Richmond Bar Association. This concluded. Judge Haddon made a most appropriate response. He said that in upholding the law, where he could do so without injury to the State, he would exercise common sense in his ruling. A SNAKE don't die until the sun goes down! A man won't never die when he's got these hot, naughty "Jet Black Snake Blues" a croonin' in his ears. Then, when you're all het up, turn to the other side of the record and start the fireworks all over again by playing that sizzling sister hit, "Beating Me Blues."

It was about 10:30. There had been whis pered that exercises were to take place upstairs in the Hustings Court chamber, where the youthful looking Judge John L. Ingram was to be sworn in by Judge Beverly T. Crump. It was a scene of transcend ent loveliness. There were seven teen magnificent Moral tributes. Downstairs the display had been grand but upstairs the showing was gorgeous. Then came filling in some of the most distinguished members of the Virginia Bar and some of the ablest jurists the commonwealth has produced. So Tired Hokum Blues Record No. 14388-D, 10-inch, 75c . .

State. was lounging, so to speak in the Clerk's office conversing with friends just as though the crowning achievement of his career was not soon to take place. Then later he entered and ascended to the bench of the Hustings Court while Mr. Chief Judge Beverly T. Crump soon followed. No time was lost in be ginning the ceremonies. In his most impressive manner Judge Crump administered to him the oath of office. Then followed oratorical tributes. Judge Ingram maintained his equipose and judicial composition; while now and then a slight smile of satisfaction appeared on his immobile countenance. MANY SPEAK. It is impossible to fittly describe the scene as attorney after attorney, jurist after jurist lauded this briary member of the bar, who had now started upward on the long path that leads up to the pinnacle of judicial fame. Those who spoke were Attorney John D. Lightfoot, Attorney Henry C. Riely, Attorney James W. Gordon, president Richmond Bar Association, Rev. R. Cary Montague, Commonwealths Attorney Dave E. Satterfield, Judge Frank T. Sutton, Attorney and Mrs. Benj. Lovenstein, both being members of the bar, Attorney L. O. Wenden burg, Judge J. Hoge Ricks, Attorney Joseph Nunnally, Judge T. Gray Haddon, and Captain Alexander Wright. JUDGE INGRAM'S RESPONSE. Judge ingram responded and gave a short history of his career, tendering his thanks to his friends for having made it possible for him to realize his ambition. At the conclusion a line of admirers passed and shook hands with the newly installed Judge of the Hustings Court of Richmond. Judge Ingram's father was a judge and his charming and attractive Madame is the daughter of the late Judge Samuel B. Witt. During a life-time, no scene to equal this display has been seen in the judicial department of the City Hall of Richmond. Folk Oppose Race Hatred (Continued from page 1) gation should have been enacted years ago, he said. Councilman English urged the councilmen to ignore "paper criticism," and remember that each man represented a constituency for whom they must act. "The wisdom of the measure is unquestioned. It is predicated on racial integrity and inter-alled so closely with racial integrity that it cannot be separated." "The question of constitutionality is not for Council to decide. The city law department has stated its belief in the constitutionality of the ordinance and it is up to us to enact it.

He denied that it was an oedience and said that it was as fair to one race as to the other. Cites Depreciation Councilman Umlauf laid the depreciation of Negro occupied property to the fault of real estate men and white property owners and not to the Negroes. A survey made some years ago showed that Negro-owned homes in Jackson Ward were well kept and neat, where property rented to Negro owners was allowed to fall into ramshackle conditions. Discussion of the ordinance is breeding discontent and it should be settled at once and not later. There has been too much talk about the "poor Negro" and not enough about the "poor white man," be added. ANNOUNCEMENT. The Rice Memorial Home School Now Brunswick, N.
