DIVIDING THE DEAD

Two little darkies went walnutting
and after filling their pockets and
everything else that would hold nuts,
started for home. Passing the ceme-
tary one suggested they go inside
and divide equally, thereupon the two
lads scaled the fence, dropping two
walnuts outside as they were doing
so. Piling the nuts in a heap, they
proceeded to make a division. While
they were thus engaged,a "a negro came
along the road, and hearing voices,
stopped to listen, and this is what
he heard
"Ah'n TAX this one
"Ah'l TAX that one'
"Ah'n TAX this one."
"Ah'H TAX that one."
"Ah'n TAX this one."
"Ah'H TAX that one''
The darkey's eyes began to bulge
Fob de Lawd's sake" he suddenly
exclaimed, de debil an de Lawd's
dividin' up the folks" And taking
to his heels. he fled down the road.
About mile down the road a
white man rushed out, shouting:
What's the matter? What are
you running that way for?"
"Oh, don't stop me, boss; don't
stop me, mast get AWAY from
hyah.' walled the frightened negro.
DE debil and de Lawds back in
de cemeter' up dar dividin' up de
folks. Lem'me go. lem'me go!"
You'll have TO go back with me
and see what is going on" said the
white man, and taking him by the
collar, forced the darkey to retrace
his steps.
When the two reached the ceme-
terry, the voices were still going on.
"Ah'n TAX this one."
"Ah'H TAX that one."
Then suddenly one said:
Now We'll get the two outside of
the fence, and then we'll be DONE"
And they do say, said the story
teller, that the white man beat the
negro running.

BENCHES REPLACE
CHAIRS IN HOUSE
Change Will Be Made in Time
for the Opening Of the Extra
Session of Congress.

Plans for a metamorphosis of the House
chamber during the recess of Congress
between March 4 and the extra ses-
sion. were announced today by Super
intendent of the Capitol Elliott Woods.
After the caucus of the new Democratic
majority on March s. chairs and desks
will be hauled out and mahogany
benches, of design similar to those OF
the British house of commons. will be
installed.
Samples of the new benches exhib-
tied today to Congressman evoked some
caustic criticism. Narrow shelves on
the back OF the chairs, instead of the
present cavernous desks for members
books and papers. provoked unfavorable
comment. Congressman are wondering
what they will do with their talking
paraphernalia."
Wedged tightly together, the new
Congress will be literally "benched''
on cane seats. with narrow leather arm
rests and leather back cushions. The
width of the seats will be taxed by
some bulky members.
The new seating arrangement will
provide for $50 members, an excess of
fifteen over the new Congressional ap-
portionment. which necessitated the
departure from desks to benches. The
cost of the change is estimated at
S20,0
