FOOD PRICES IN 1923.
An Old Journal With Figures That
 Are of interset Today.

That prices of food in Cincinnati were not always as high as they are now is the testimony of little musty volume of poems and facts compiled by Moses Guest, who came to Gin cinnati from the east in 1923. and when he got here took careful note of many things he saw, including the market He jotted his observations down in his journal. which was later published by Locker & Reynolds of this city. The journal was resur- rected by Philip Hinkle and this in- teresting bit of information culled from its pages:
 Markets in this Cincinnati city are abundantly supplied with the best kinds of meats and vegetables. Beef. mutton, and veal sell from 2 to 4 cents a pound. pork from 1k to 2lH cents, butter, 12ETAO .shrdlu hrdluu cheese, to 8 cents, and eggs, 4 to 10 cents per dozen.

THE EXPECTED HAPPENED.
Widespread Conflicts Between Sore
 Whites and Joyous Blacks.

Rioting broke out like prickly heat all over the country between whites, angry and sore because Jeffries had lost at Reno, and negroes jubilant be- cause Johnson had won.
 A white man was shot in Arkansas and a negro fatally wounded at Roa- noke. Va, but the tension that existed everywhere manifested itself chiefly in street scuffles.
 Here and there a knife flashed and few scattering shots were fired, but there were more broken heads and black eyes than serious wounds. There were disturbances in New York. Pitts burg, Philadelphia, New Orleans. At lanta, st. Louis, Little Rock and Hous- ton.
 As night progressed the rioting grew more serious. In New York. .disgrun- tied whites fired a negro tenement house; at Mounds. III, negro consta- ble was killed. and another man was mortally wounded. Street rioting broke out in Kansas City, Pueblo and Nor folk and two negroes were shot in New Orleans.

IF WE ONLY WOULD.

Wouldn't the world have thousands of happy homes if the people in them would be as nice to each other as they are to their friends outside? But many a time the man who is a jolly good fellow down town is like a bear at home and the woman who is just the sweetest thing that ever was at the bridge whist party is snariy when she gets home. And the dear little girl who looks so coyly at the nice young man will look daggers at the whole family because her brother .sn't as nice to her as he is to same other girl. If we only would stop to think how little a way we have to go to- gether in this world perhaps we'u say the kinder things and lo the more courteous deeds.

BULLETIN ERV|cE
 WAS GREAT SUCCESS
Republicans Preparations Gave the First News to a Large Crowd
 of People.

As was anticipated. the incident of all-controlling interest yesterday was the big prize fight, and early in the afternoon big crowds assembled at all the newspaper offices to hear the read ing of the bulletins as they were re- ceived. Whatever the merits of the prize fighting game, it was well dem onstrated yesterday that a very large majority of the people of this section were interested in the outcome of the big battle. And that does not refer merely to the sports or the toughs. but to the average citizen encountered in the streets, including his wife and sweetheart, for a large proportion of the various crowds p,ts composed of women, and good women. too.
 The Republican,, as had been an nounced, was nicely equipped for quickest possible service. Having telegraph wire in the office constant ly for its press service, there was nothing to do but put the operator at work and give the public the dope" straight from the ringside at Reno. but a few minutes after the events recorded had taken place. The Re publican's bulletins were announced to the patiently waiting crowd ahead of all competitors.
 Yesterday morning The Republican was further favored by the kindly tender of a sufficient number of seats by the Airdome management to fill up its big lobby in front, affording fine l.. c., several hundred people, while the overflow found standing room in the shade of the outside awning. It was hot. of course. for it was hot every where yesterday, but all possible was done by The Republican for the com fort of its patrons and guests. bunch of newsies was kept busy cir culating ice water. and though there was some delay in starting things-at Reno. not here-the crowd was patient and a good natured one. The bulletins were announced through a megaphone as fast as received, re read to the overflow crowd on the outside. and then posted.
 It was clearly Jeffries assem- blaze. though there were enough de lenders of the black champion in the crowd to make it an enthusiastic one, even after the white mans 'colors were dragging in the dust. The flash an nouncing the result came after only a few rounds had been read, and when it was announced to the crowd there was a hurried exit of a great army The enthusiasts however, the real fight fans. stayed until the end. The Johnson partisans were eager to learn the method of the final trimming. and the Jeffries packers were equally as keen to know whether the big one was laid out by a sledge hammer blow or consistently hammered until the finish came. Though the game was lost, they remained with their idol until Johnson left him hanging oyer the ropes.

The same little journal states that the Cincinnati water works were op- erated by horses and that the really astonishing thing about this town was the nine story steam flour mill on the river front, with walls from nine to ten feet thick and having a capa- city of 15,OOO bushels.

THE HANGMEN
READY TO STRIKE
Don't Want to Execute Murderer
Wynne in Oahu
Jail.
PETITION FOR A PARDON
High Sheriff May Have to Get
New Deputies if He Has
to Hang Wynne.

y very strong petition for the par
don Of Wynne, condemned in the fed
eIaI court as a murderer, Is soon to %
forward to Washington. backed strong
" by police and prison officials Wynne
was convicted Of the murder Of d sailor
on board the steamer Rosecrans. His
defcuse was that he was drunk. His
conviction, however, was Of murder in
the first degree and in due time, ac-
cording to the routine Of federal pro
cedure, he is soon to be sentenced to
be hanged
Wynne has been in jail now for a
couple OF years. and has been q very
well behaved prisoner. The result OF
this and OF the circumstances OF his
conviction, is that in the Jail he has
strong sympathizers. 1t is even said
that if he is TO be hanged some Of the
officials viii "strike' and refuse to
otliciate when the event comes Oft.
An element entering into the propo-
sition is the Anderson Grace case.
Though the Grace case has nothing to
do with the other case. it is naturally
cOntrasted. Wynne committed his muir
der while drunk and under conditions
which. as the evidence showed, indi-
Gated that he didn t know what he
was doing at the time. though previous
malicious intent was shown. The crime
Of Anderson Grace was carefully
planned long premeditated, deliberate
murder. Grace S neck was saved by
plea of guilty Of murder in the second
degree, and Wynne, convicted OF muir
der in the first degree, is to hang.
There is considerable criticism Of the
acceptance of the second degree con
viction in the case Of Grace. Few muir
ders are ever exposed showing such
deliberate and long planned intent as
his. He very carefully schemed to
Kill his man. and the case appeals to
most people as one for hanging II any
case Is.
1t IS said. however, that if Grace
had been put on trial Tor murder IN
the first degree and well defended,
there might have been much difficulty
| in convicting him, the main evidence
against him being merely his own con
| fession. There is. however, no doubt
about Grace's guilt now, Of long
| planned and most cowardly executed
murder
As for Wynne. it is said that some
Of the prison officers will resign their
lob, rather than take part in the work
| Of hanging him.
