race; then she saw he was looking
ABOUT In what she considered furtive
way. Then he walked up to the jew
elry show case and drummed on the
glass. Then he went over to the per.
fumery counter and asked the price
OF bottle Of cologne Thence he
walked to the door and looked up and
down. as If to see whether there was
policeman about or not. Being salts
ned on this point. he walked back to-
the book counter, picked up one book
after another, and finally walked OFF
with one in his hand as bold as brass
1t was valuable book.
Miss Cleo should have stepped for
ward at this moment and laid her
heavy hand on the shoplifter and
made an arrest but her heart failed
her. He would deny and resist She
would let him go and trail him and
then report to her brother-in-law. She
hadn't far to trail. With quick
glance up and down the street, the
young man crossed. At the entrance
to a stairway he paused a moment to
look back, and then climbed the stairs.
The girl had the criminal run to earth
she re-entered the store, was taken
up to the managers office, and aston.
ished him with announcing:
George, have been doing detec-
tive work downstairs unbeknown to
you or Sarah, and have caught
shoplifter. He may be the head of
tho gang!"
You don't tell me! Where is he?"
Il didn't want to create excitement
IN the store, and SO l trailed him to
his lair"
Good girl! Where Is it?"
Right across the road and up
stairs. He can be arrested in five
minutes"
You'll have to come along and
point him out"
"Oh, Ill do that"
AT the store doors they picked up
a detective. When the trio had cross
ed the street and the stairway had
been pointed out, Mr.. Marshall said
TO the girl:
There are dozen offices up there.
and studio or two, and we mustn't
bungle this case. Sure you can iden-
tify your man again?"
I'm an instant"
I can't believe that any of these
people are shoplifters. Wen look in
on Paul first and ask him what he
thinks. Right in here"
TRcvsGnaSred studio At desk

easels and paintings on the walls.
Hello, George!" from the youn
man to Mr.. Marshall.
Hello, Paul"
That Is the man and there is tn
book!" exclaimed the natural born de
tectiye as she stood erect and pointe
an accusing finger.
Ten seconds of intense silence. an
then they broke into laughter.
"What-what does this mean?" dc
manded Miss Cleo
"Mr. Paul Wainwright, this is m
wife's sister, Miss Cleo Gates, in tow
on a visit Mr. Wainwright is tn
son of his father, who Is the Wair
wright Of our firm"
1t took five long minutes to max
1t clear that Mr.. Paul Wainwright ha
borrowed instead Of shoplifted, an
that there was nothing coming to hin
!. in the way of punishment, and ther
were apologies and don't mention its
and somehow Mr.. Paul got the ide
! that he must call on the young lad,
and talk the case over. He is call
ing yet.

HAS UNWATERED THE MAINE

General Bixby, chief Of the army en-
gineers, who has had charge Of the un-
watering Of the Maine, recently ex-
pressed the opinion that the destruc-
tion Of the battleship was caused by
the explosion Of her magazines. No
external explosion, In his Judgment,
could have caused the conditions OBJ
served in the remains of the vessel.
But General Bixby added that the pri-
mary cause of the explosion would
likely never be known, 80 the mys-
terry Of the Maine, unlike the hull It,
self, may never be revealed. General
Bixby said that unless the fragment
Of torpedo could be found there is
no way Of connecting an outside
agency with the blowing up of the
vessel.
The destruction to the vessel was
such, says General Bixby, and the de-
terioration has been SO great that it
Is impossible to tell whether the ship
was blown up from force within or

BOOSTING BY KNOCKINC

The Hon. Managing Editor-as he
styles himself-of paper in the
southern part of the State is peevet
because The Advocate expressed it.
pardonable pride in having been the
only Negro paper to publish full
text OF the primary election plan
adopted by the Republican State
committee. He asks if The Adyo
cate were not printed where it is
would it have published the text OF
the plan.
1t is strange how envious some
little souls are. Without enterprise
themselves, the evidence of it in an.
other throws them into a childish
rage. But The Advocate is ALWAYS
grateful for such little kind atten.
ton as it's competitors feel inclined
to pay it. Among the notices il
cheerishes most highly is: IF your
competitor talks about you, put him
on your payroll. Never mind what
ne says SO long as he talks"
Keep it up, friend.

ONE STEP FURTHER.

| In the announcement OF the names
OF the members Of the Negro church
pnpmmittees to participate in the Men
land Ee!igioN Forward Movement
>Rhe Advocate sees the cOnsumma-
ton of it's efforts to have the people
At represents share in the manifold
blessings the Movement is expected
to bring to those who engage in it,
There is every reason to believe
that, before The Advocate began the
agitation for the Negroes participa-
ton, the intention, if not the desire,
OF the local promoters was to con-
fine the Movement to whites only.
Our query as to whether that was
the desire, brought about change
of plans so as to include the Negro
/ in the great campaign to bring men
= closer to the church.
The Advocate is not content, how
. ever, to let the matter rest with the
L announcement of the committees. 1t
n wants to see those who have been
named take an active part, attend
the several sectional meetings to
which they have been assigned. and
4 put into practice what they learn
!, there. For the need is great for
. some effort along the lines Of the
Men and Religion Forward Move
!. ment. Especially is this true Of the
It boys. We are rearing an increasing
ly large number Of boys who. have
mo respect for God nor fear Of the
I devil and, therefore, no regard for
H.,
Der CT these is growing with each
generation and has now reached
( such magnitude as to demand seri-
Gus consideration. To divert this
current back into channels where it
can be used to the glory Of God and
the uDlift of humanity, there have
7 been organized here companies Of
Boy Scouts who are nightly listen
ing tC talks delivered by men train
ed in the work. These meetings
are not the 'reVivals' to which
we are accustomed They are both
religious and educational-aim to
make manly men.
(. What's the matter with having
companies Of Negro Boy Scouts?
fHPihS |Aio "HlIeo, "oAue may oDJecI
True, but no such silly objection
will deter any one having the good
of the race at heart. If the Boy
Scouts are a part Of the Men and
Religion Forward Movement, and II
We are going to enlist in the Move
ment, let us adopt the Boy Scouts
If the organization is good for the
whites, it is good for the Negroes
No other endorsement is necessary
