COLORED SOLDIER
SHOOTS CHINESE
Ell Reno, Okla, Is Ahame
Over Outrage by Negro in
United States Army Garb
ROBBERY ATTEMPTED

Ell RENO, Okla, Dec. 28.-Resisting
an attempted hold-up in his laundry at
$50 O'Clock tonight, Lee Sung, a Chi
nese, was shot and dangerously wound
ed by an unknown negro, who wore
the uniform of the United States army.
Fort Reno. the Sheriff's force, the po-
lice force and many possess of citizens
are searching for him.
The numerous outrages perpetrated
by negroes, supposed to be discharged
soldiers of the Twenty-fffth Infantry,
have aroused public sentiment to a
white heat, and this crime but adds
fuel to the flames. Summary venge-
ance will probably be wreaked by the
citizens should the man be apprehend-
ed unless the strongest protection is
given by troops from Fort Reno
Lee Sung was alone in his laundry
when the negro entered and pointing
pistol at him demanded his money.
The Chinese attempted to draw a re-
volver and the negro fired, the bullet
entering Lee Sungs abdomen. 1t is
not known whether he will die
The negro was dressed in the full
uniform of the United States army,
but it is not known whether he is a
member of the negro troop stationed
at Fort Reno or one of the discharged
soldiers. Some of those dismissed for
participation in the Brownsville riots
carried their uniforms away with them.
After wounding the Chinese. the ne
gro ran from the laundry toward the
outskirts of the town, but 1T is be-
lieved by the searchers that he is hid
ing in this vicinity.
Major Penrose, commanding officer
at Fort Reno, when asked what action
he had taken and whether the roll of
troops at the fort had been called, re-
fused to discuss the case.
I'm getting sick of this business.
he said. Every time crime is COM
mitted it is laid to the negro soldiers.
1 won't tell anything about what has
been done further than to say that we
are doing all in our power to aid in
| the apprehension of the guilty person.

Dickerson's Office
Is Surely a Snap

N MARTINEZ, Dec. 2s.-
N James Dickerson, JUS
tice of the Peace of Som
ersville, has the Contra Costa
record, and probably that of the
world, for holding a public snap.
At the last session of the Grand
Jury all Justices were directed
to bring their books to MARTINEZ
to be exported, and when Dick
erson presented his to one of
the officers at the courthouse he
made the remark that he was not
sure that an expert could do JUS
tee to his accounts.
The official scented a possible
scandal until Dickerson turned
page after page of the docket
and showed that there was not
the scratch of a pen from cover
to cover.
The Justice explained that he
had not been called upon even
once during his four years
tenure of Office to hold court.
AS his salary is $50 month
Dickerson has drawn from the
county treasury an even $1,000
without doing a tap.

PRESIDENT FEARS
FOR SETTLERS
Will Send Message to Con
gress Calling Attention
to Colorado River Break
FARMERS PROTECTED
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 28.-It is under
stood here that Immediately after Con-
gress reconvenes President Roosevelt
will send a message to Congress call
ing attention to the critical situation
existing in Southern California on ac-
count of the break in the Colorado
River and asking for legislation au-
thorizing the Government to protect
the settlers from threatened ruin of
their farms. The problem which con-
fronts the Government in this matter
is perplexing and doubt is expressed
by Congress leaders whether any legis-
lation can be secured that will meet
the emergency.
1t is said that no member OF the Cal
ifornia delegation is likely to offer a
bill for the Intervention of the Govern
ment in this case, Notwithstanding any
of the President, as the
work of repairing the break is being
attended to by the Southern Pacific
Company.
The problem of closing the flow of
the Colorado River into the Salton
Sea will be added to, according to the
announcement of the Weather Bureau
tonight, by the rainfall throughout
Arizona and Southern California last
ing two days. Forecaster Henry
stated tonight that there had been a
precipitation of about one inch in that
region in forty-eight hours.

CLAIMS To HAVE
WYNN PROCESS

DENVER. Dec. 2s.-Judye Sydney
Williams reappeared in Denver last
night after absence Of four years
during the most of which time his wife
had remained here. When he left il
was stated in several newspaper
stories that his wife had been deserted
and that the Judge had been accom-
panied hence by bis pretty stenog-
rapher- These statements the Judge
Aranded tonight vile ISLANDERS. In
S!dentally, he declared that he had per-
fected the Professor A. c. Wynn process
for the extraction of gold from ores
which contain it in infinitely small
quantities
Judge Williams says that former
Governor Gage of California is his
partner, and that an extraction plant
has been built by them on mining
property about sixty miles from Los
Angeles.
Professor Wynn startled Denver and
caused much discussion in scientific
circles about five years ago by declar-
ing that he had discovered a chemical
process somewhat on the cyanide order
which would recover gold from any
thing containing IT, no matter how
after many prominent men had been
persuaded TO invest in stock. Williams
claims Wynn's secret was intrusted to
him, and that he has improved on the
process. He declares that the deadly
acid Wynn worked with caused his
death.
Judge Williams says that he disap-
peared purposely because he was being
annoyed. and that when he was report
ed 10 have been drowned by falling
from a steamer in New York harbor
two years ago he ket quiet about IT
because he wanted To remain in Sc
clusIon until his plans had been per-
fected- Mrs Williams seems pleased
at the return Of her Hege lord, although
II was belated, and accepts his strange
explanation.

BEvER|DGE WARS
ON CHILD LABOR

LINCOLN. Neb.. Dec. 2s.-Senator Al
bert K. Beveridge addressed the closing
meeting of the Nebraska State Teach
ers' Association here tonight speaking
on The Schools and the Nation" Sem
ator Beveridge was introduced by W. j.
Bryan. and said:
There Is something wrong with a
prosperity which is so immense that il
finally comes to feed upon the lives OF
little children. Men who make money
by working infants are making too
much money 1t must be stopped-if
not for the sake of these children them
selves. then for our own sake; IL not
for the sake of common humanity, then
for the sake Of the republics safety
For this republic is oased on citizen
ship. We cannot SOW the wind today
without reaping the whirlwind tomor-
row.
The theory OF state rights Is not
affected by the child labor bill pending
in the Senate. The bill affects child
labor only in factories. mines and
sweatshops. That Is as far as 1t should
go at present. II does not touch any
healthful employment Of children any
where in the republic 1t cuts out only
the cancer of murderous and debasins

SUED BY WIFE

BOSTON, Dec. 2S.-George NJ. Cohan,
musical comedy artist, playwright and
star. who is now playing in Boston
in his new production, George Wash
ington Jr.," is being sued by his wife,
Ethel Levy, former Los Angeles girl,
for divorce and 100000 alimony.
Cohan treats the matter lightly and
says:
Il haven't been served with the
papers yet, but 1 haven't anything to
say 1t might interfere with the plans
of my lawyers. 1 certainly will fight
the case. 1t is a complete surprise to
me. Mrs. Cohan came on with the
company from Cleveland and left us at
New York.
But what's the use of taking 1t
seriously? AS matter of fact, there
has been a breach between my wife
and myself for some time. We agreed
to disagree and the next thing that I
heard was this report of divorce pro-
ceedings."
