NEGROES ABANDONING SOUTH.
Gov. Hayward Says Educated Blacks
Are Flocking to Cities.

The fifth annual dinner of the North
Carolina Society was held in New York
Friday night Gov. Duncan c. Haywood of
South Carolina devoted part of his speech
to the negro problem, saying, among
other things:
LAS the negro is becoming more edu-
Gated you will find that he is voluntarily
abandoning work and congregating in
the cities; that his tendency is to go
north, east and west; that today Penn
sylvania. for instance. has a popula ton
of 156,S45 negroes; New York, 100000;
Missouri, 1O1 600; Massachusetts. 31,974;
the District OF Columbia, sc, 7U2, and New
Jersey, 69,S44.
Our movement, therefore, in it's last
analysis, means the offering of a solu-
ton of this great problem. in which, from
it's very nature and relation to the other
problem of immigration, will have the
aid of the thinking people of those sec
lions politically opposed to the south.
We offer peaceful solution, and with it
the bringing about of a development of
resources that cannot but mean much in
the commerce and growth of the entire
United States"

A CONSCIENCE CONTRIBUTION.
After Thirty Years Anxiety a Clerk
Wants to Sleep

The Secretary of the Interior has received
a lette from a conscience-stricken veteran
of the department service nclosing Is
cents, which he asked the Secretary
to forward to the Secretary of the Treas
ury for the conscience fund.- The writer,
who lives in the west explains that twenty
or thirty years ago he was employed in a
clerical capacity at one of the Indian
schools, and that he appropriated to his
own uses two slate pencils. Ever since
that time his conscience has been troubling
him. He finally grew SO remorseful that
he could not sleep nights, thinking of the
misrepresentation of those two slate PEN
ellis For long time he could not deter
mine what course to purSue-whether to
give himself up to justice and let the gov
eminent do it's worst, or whether to make
restitution. He decided that neither course
would do, however, and hearing of the con-
science fund he begged the Secretary to
accept the - cents as payment for the
pencils and give his mind the first rest it
has enjoyed for thirty years. The Secre
tary complied with his correspondents re-
quest. and the three nickelS are now re-
posing in the vault of the treasury.

was in notes and FOLD. The notes were laid
fiat between the backs Of the pictures and
the retaining boards. The gold was in little
bags hanging from nails in the wall, hidden
from view by the pictures More than $16,-
900 in cash has been found since then. His
aged widow has placed the money in bank
to her credit. Mr.. McKenna left no chill
dren In his will he bequeathed 500 to his

She removed the back from the frame of
the picture and her eyes almost popped from
their sockets, so great was her surprise, as
she counted 81 ,221. With the exception of a
e-dollar bill the money was in gold GER
tificates, as follows: Four 500 notes, six
teen $50 notes and one 500 note. She could
have kept the money and no one would have
been the wiser, but she said her conscience
would not permit her to retain 1t. She
therefore took it to the home of Mr. Will
liam E. Walsh, executor of the McKenna
estate and told him of the circumstances
Mr.. Walsh complimented her for her hon.
esty, and it is understood she will be re-
warded. EX-Judge Ferdinand Williams will
look after the interests of Mrs. Mckenzie.
After finding the money in the picture of
st. Patrick Mrs. Mckenzie was urged to go
to the Mc<enna home and search more pic
lures. She did so and found So, $50 behind a
picture of the Guardian Angel" In all
81, 101 was found behind pictures, the money
having been secreted there by Mr.. McKenna
without the knowledge of any one. While
he had nearly $4,000 in bank when he died,
he did not believe altogether in banks, pre-
ferring to have money at home to fall back
on in the event the bank busted" His
widow, who is past eighty years of age. has
placed all the money in the Second National
Bank. 1t was Mr.. Mckenna's habit to go
to bank and have money converted into
gold coin or gold certificates.

tionate sums. We mention this fact to indicate
the value Of Lquozone-the value to you. Men
have never before paid such price for any dis
covery used in the cure of sickness

well before buying It, For years it was tested
through physicians and hospitals in this country
and others 1t was employed in every stage Of
every germ disease; in all the most difficult cases
otteinable. With thousands Of sick ones, consid-
cred incurable. proved that It did what medi-
cine could not do Then. and then only, did We
pay the price.
Since then have spent nearly $1,000 900 to
make Liquozone known. We have bought the first
bottle and given 1t free to every sick
learned Of. These people told others. and the
others told others. The result is that Liquozone
is now more widely employed than any medicine

years has sprung into worldwide in the treat
ment Of germ diseases. 1t is now used by the
sick of nine nations by physicians and hospitals

days, and requires immense apparatus. At the end
of two weeks we get cubic inch Of Lquozone

years, been the constant subject of scientific and
chemical research.

We judge from records that one home In
five, the country over, has some one whom Liquo-

by it. And most Of those homes still use Liquozone
daily, as We do to keep well.

chine which could be used with admirable
results. She said that the instrument was
SO made to deliver blows with equal
force, thus eliminating the passion or pity
that, with a human whipper, might in

machine also would protect the small of

Kills Inside Germs.

The greatest value Of Liquozone lies in the fact
that 1t kills in the body without killing the
TISSUES, too. And no man knows another way to
do it. Any drug that kills germs is a poison, and
it cannot be taken internally. For that reason
medicine is almost helpless In any germ disease.
Lquozone is germicide go certain that we pub
