TRAVELS 100 MILES To
TESTIFY FOR FORMER
NEGRO SERVANT

Atlanta.-The days "befo' de wah" and
the care taken of negro servants by
their ante-bellum masters was strtk-
ingly illustrated in the Fulton superior
court when an 'ole marster" from
central Georgia Travelled, 100 miles sim
ply to testify to the good character Of
a negro boy, born and reaved on his
plantation.
The boy had a perfect alibi, sworn
to by number of reputable white
witnesses, and was sure of release, but
in spite of this the "ole marster" came
all the way from Washington, in
Wilkes county. to testify.
The negro had no ties upon mis- for
mer master and the gentleman expect
ed nothing of his former servant. Evil
IDENTIFY Colonel William Winn, an old
and prominently known middle Geor-
gia lawyer, felt that 1t was case OF
noblesse oblige, and as he is gentle
man Of the old school, he followed the
promptings of the spirit.
Colonel Winn's action was under
taken as soon as he heard that the
negro had been arrested, charged with
robbery When he learned that the
case would be tried he Immediately
made preparations and came to At
lanta.
The old lawyer ascended the stand
and told of the boys birth on his
Wilkes county plantation, and how
the negro had remained on his place
until eighteen months ago, when he
left the plantation to come to the big
city.
When Colonel Winn finished his evi-
dence, Solicitor Dorsey rose and asked
permission to direct verdict of mot
guilty" This was given and the boy
was released.

NEGRO A PHEN0M
ON MATHEMATICS


Topeka, Kansas.-Frank Humphrey,
29 years old, employed as roust-
about at a local railroad depot, Is
barely able to read and write, yet
he can solve difficult problems in
mental mathematics with a rapidity
and accuracy possible to few persons.
Humphrey is a negro. He knows little
of the rules of mathematics, and says
that he attended school only long
enough to learn the multiplication ta-
bles.
What is the cube root Of 357.s11 ?"
he was asked.
"Seventy-one," replied Humphrey,
without the least hesitancy.
Multiply 1O2h by 67A, Hum
phrey."
for moment and then his face
frightened and he said: "Sixty-nine
thousand nine hundred and forty-four
and three-eighths."
The clerks in the railroad office find
amusement in figuring the answers to
intricate problems and then PROFOUND
ing them to Humphrey. In a moment
he gives results which the clerks
found difficult in obtaining in 15 or
20 minutes hard work. For years
Humphrey supposed that every person
could solve problems just as he does,
and was surprised when he learned
that his was a special gift

The analysis of these reports brings
out some very interesting results. OF
those who have taken part in this
speaking world. They represent all
classes, with the exception of the
clergymen of the Church of England
none of whom have contributed to the
symposium.
1t is interesting to note the distribu-
ton of great men among various ma
tons AS most of those who con-
tributed to the symposium are Eng
disappearing men, 1t is only natural
that we have more than our fair pro-
portion in the final 20. These are:
Shakespeare, Newton, Darwin, Ste
phenson, Watt; Franklin and Abraham
Lincoln.
Italy contributes Columbus, Julius
Caesar, Dante, Michael Angelo; an
cient Greece contributes Homer, Aris-
totle and Socrates. There are two
Jews, Moses and st. Paul; one Chi
reese, Confucius: one Indian, Buddha,
and two Germans, Gutenberg and Lu-
ther. France is left out altogether;
so are Spain, Russia and the great
Egyptian and Babylonian civilizations
Even when the whole $50 named by
the contributors to the symposium arc
subject to a similar analysis, 1t will
be seen that there is a preponderance
of English-speaking men, with 81 out
of the $50.
The other countries represented
are: II from Italy, 16 from Greece, 7
from Germany, 13 from France, 10
from the Jews (crediting the sons of
Israel with Lord Beaconsfield and
Spinoza), 4 from Sweden, 8 from In
