did not usually like the work, but

ARGUING CASES
Fight On Negro Sufferage
Amendment To Annapolis Law
Opens In Baltimore
Today
DISTINGUISHED COUNCIL
City. Councillor Melvin Aided By Attorney
General And William L. Marbury

After months of delay, the case of
several colored men of Annapolis
against A. Claude Kalmey and Chas.
Myers, registration officers in the
Third ward of this city involving the
validity and constitutionality of the
Annapolis election law, is being
argued in the United States District
Court in Baltimore today.
One of the main points involved
is whether the United States Courts
have jurisdiction in the case. Here
is involved the question of States
rights. In every case carried to the
Supreme Court and designed to test
the constitutionality of the anti-negro
suffrage clauses in the new constitu-
tions of Southern Estates the court
has in one Tissue or another, failed
to approach the real question in
volved, that question being whether
state law has the right to limit
the voting privilege, lin violation
of the Constitution of the United
States, to white citizens.
In the United States Circuit Court
today the first argument will be a
demurrer to declarations denying
the jurisdiction of the court. Then
will come the arguments on the
main question if the demurrer is
overruled. The plaintiffs in the case
are three negroes of Annapolis, Will
lam H. Howard, John B. Anderson
and Robert Brown, who were denied
registration which preceded the mu-
nicipal election in 1909.
They brought suits for $5, 600 dam
ages each against the Democratic
registers and clerk who refused to
register them, the new act providing
that no one should be allowed to vote
in municipal elections whose ances-
tors could not vote in 1860, provided
they were in the United States at
that time.
The defendants subsequently an
swered the suits, contending that the
law was perfectly valid, because it
was in operation only in municipal
elections in Annapolis, a corporation
under the laws of Maryland The
plaintiffs have filed briefs in the case
in which many authorities are cited
to show that the law is a violation of
the Fifteenth Amendment of the Con-
stitution of the United States.
Former Attorney General Charles
j. Bonaparte and Attorneys Edgar H.
Cans and j. Writ Kendall, of Annap
oils, will represent the plaintiffs, who
were refused registration. Attorney
General Isaac Lobe Straus, Mr.. Will
lam L. Marbury, of Baltimore, and
Mr.. Ridgely P. Melvin, of Annapolis,
will appear for the registers of
voters.

BOTH WERE ODD FELLOWS
Lodges And Fraternal Orders Attend
0bsequies And Hold Their Own
Services AT The Grave

Two Sunday funerals were held
here yesterday afternoon and both

number of people besides the family
and relatives.
The funeral of Edward d. Skipper,
a prominent contractor and builder
in this city, took place at 2 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon from his late res

largest funeral that has ever been
held here. Between three and four
hundred memt ers of lodges and fra

a body.
The services were conducted at the
house by the Rev. Joseph P. Nc.

tum and Jesse Jackson; Loyal Order
of Moose, Messrs. Luther F. Francis
and Stewart Griseom.
The Elks had ninety members in
line, the Odd Fellows forty, the Ju-
nior Order one hundred and the Moose
one hundred. The entire representa-
tion of orders made long line in the
funeral procession, which was one of
the largest ever seen here. The
flowers were unusually beautiful and
in many instances elaborate, hand
some and costly. The casket was COW
cred with beautiful silk American
flag of the Junior Order and on the
flag rested a large cross of white
roses and lilies sent by the family of
the deceased.
The Elks sent a handsome wreath
of white roses with their emblem ''B.
p. o. lE., No. 622" in purple i'm
mortelles, the wreath being tied with
purple and white ribbon, the Elks'
colors. The Odd Fellows sent a
handsome cross with their emble m
the three links-in roses. The Junior
Order sent their emblem-the right
arm upraised, the hammer, compass
ard square, all in beautiful flowers,
and mounted on pedestal, from the
top of which foated the American
flag at half-mast. The Moose sent a
handsome white pillow of roses, with
their emblem 81 o. o. M" in red
carnations.
The remains were inferred in
Cedar Bluff cemetery, beside
the remains of his first wife, and at
the grave each order held its own
burial services after the commitment
to the tomb by the rector and the
burial service of the Episcopal
Church. The services of the Elks
and the Junior Order were especially
beautiful. The latter sang with
great effect and solemnity "God Be
With You Till We Meet Again"
Undertaken James S. Taylor & Sons
had charge of the funeral arrange
ments.

Do farmers eat the proper
sort OF food7

The farmer Of today buys a much
larger proportion of the food that goes
on the table than he did ten years ago.
It's good thing that this is so because
he has great variety 10 select from.
He should, however, use great care
in selecting for the best results in
health and strength.
The widespread tendency in the c., :
to increase the amount OF Quaker Oats
eaten is due very largely TO the recent
demonstrations by scientific men that
the Quaker Oats fed man is the man
with greatest physical endurance and
greatest mental vigor.

themselves, their children and the
