Weather Man and Mercury Bulb Dc

Memphis, Tenn.-Today the weather
man and the mercury bulb in all we'll

The minimum temperature for the
day was IS, while shortly before 4
o'clock the mercury climbed to 90. 1t
was never cool during the entire TWEEN
ty-four hours. At o'clock in the
morning the record showed an unnatural
registration OF 81 degrees, and when
the sun set at 7:l3 the temperature was
OIL. IL was hot morning, noon and night.
The wave is general IL does not
only apply to Memphis but throughout
the cotton belt. In the larger cities
East the conditions have been more
alarming, for the reports show that
there have been numerous deaths and
prostrations.

RACE STAIN CAUSED SUICIDE

Chicago.-The suicide OF Lille Wat

handsome blonde young woman, who
for the past eight years has lived at the
more fashionable hotels and few years
ago was popular with the wealthiest
co-eds at the University of Chicago,
was full-blooded negress. Stranger
than the flimsiest vagaries OF writers OF
fiction is the life led by the negress
brought into the world in the likeness
of white child who pleaded and pray
ed that she might live her life among
those OF her seeming kind.

Priest Calls on police for Protection
Against Young italians.

Chicago. Ill.-Because threats had
been made by members OF an anti.
clerical society to rob the statue OF
the Maria Addolorata" OF hundreds
of dollars pinned to II by worshippers.
the image was borne through the
streets Of Melrose Park Sunday under
police guard. About 20 young ltal.
ians surrounded the statue after II
had been carried few blocks from
the Italian Roman Catholic church OF
the suburb. Their attitude became so
threatening that Rev Bennenino Els
mes. pastor of the church. became
alarmed for the safety OF the $500
which the members OF the parish hsd
pinned to the garments OF the statue
and called for police aid. A dozen
officers then surrounded the statue
and continued to guard II even after
IL had been restored to the sanctuary.
The anti-clericals dispersed when the
police arrived.

NEGRO WON'T BE AN ISSUE
Bryan Will Not Discuss Presidents
Discharge of Negro Troops.

Fairview, Lincoln, Neb.-W. j.
Bryan does not il tend to be drawn into
the Brownsville case II be can help IL.
In all his conversations with visiting
delegations and others he has carefully
refrained from talking on that subject,
and today he put the brand OF untruth-
fulness upon an alleged statement
made by Bishop Walters, of the Afro
Methodist Episcopal church, to the eff
feet that he had assured negro dele
cation that he regarded President
Roosevelt's action in that matter as UNI
Just. At the same time he also denied
another alleged interview OF the bishop
that he had discussed the appointment
OF negroes to Office.
These declarations we're called forth
by telegram from the Baltimore Sun,
inquiring as to the truth of the state
meet said TO have emanated from
Bishop Walters. To the newspaper
men at Fairview Mr.. Bryan said he had
not and would not take up any issue
not contained in the platform.

Chicago.-Judge c. c. Kohlsaat
Of the United States circuit cour:
Wednesday declared illegal all con-
tracts between newspapers and rail-
roads whereby the newspapers pay
for railroad mileage in advertising.
This opinion. which was rendered In
a test case against the Monon rail-
road. sustains the Hepburn act. and
also sustains the Interpretation OF that
act by the interstate commerce COM
mission.
The court grants the injunction
sought by the government restraining
the Monon railroad from issuing
passes in return for advertising.
Contract With Magazine.
The suit was brought by the dis
trict attorney to enjoin the fulfillment
OF contract between the railroad and
Munsey's Magazine. II was submit
ted to Judge Kohlsaat on an admis-
sion of facts and presentation of
briefs and arguments.
The government contended that the
exchange of advertising space for
transportation amounts to discrim-
ination against the general travelling
public, in that. according to the con-
tention. the value OF advertising space
is not fixed. as is that Of money.
The railroad company took the posi-
ton that the interstate commerce
laws do no apply to an agreement
such as the one in question. claiming
that advertising has a sufficiently
fixed value to make it lawful consid-
Grafton for the issuance of transpor-
tation.
