the best white daily papers condemn
in forceful terms the unnecessary, un-
Christian, un-American segregation
which is being put into operation in
Washington and elsewhere. And we
most sincerely hope that little of
such leaven may leaven the whole lump.

There are some who can contemplate
comfortably the spectacle Of the suf-
fering which that will inflict upon the
colored race, but it would prove ut

J|Nx IS DISCOVERED
IN GERMANS CLOCK
Struck Thirteen on Friday and
Brought Much Bad Luc k.

Amite City, La.-George Zollenburg
returned to his home near this city
after another Intellectual attempt to
have the jinx taken out Of his grand
fathers clock The ancient timepiece
is to blame for long train of mis-.
fortunes that started Friday, June ID,
1913. The following details have been
supplied by Mr.. Zollenburg:
The clock was brought to this coun-
try by Mr. Zollenburg from the father
land. The old time mill had never
missed tick or let second slip by
unrecorded until noon on that fatal
Friday. While waiting for dinner Zol-
lenburg was surprised and alarmed to
hear the old heirloom strike thirteen
times for noon. .-...~
"You'd better take that to some clock
mender in Hammond" said the watch
fxer, and he put his hand behind him
as though the old timepiece were hot.
Zollenburg took the clock to Ham
mond and, not wishing to have it fixed
under false pretenses, told the jewel
ers there about its having struck thir-
teen. Neither of the Hammond clock
smiths would have touched the hoodoo
with fishing pole.
Since then Zollenburg has taken the
clock to every expert near here, only
to have the job declined. That is not
all. Here are few Of the things that
have happened since. for which he
blames the clock:
His rich mother-in-law departed this
life back in Germany without leaving
him red pfennig.
His valued hen (the one that walks
with limp deserted her nest after
sitting patiently for two and half
weeks on thirteen-there it is again
thoroughbred Cochin china eggs.
His hired girl eloped with his best
stable hand.
Twelve kittens fell in a well near
his home and were drowned.
His brindle COW Bessie gave birth
to triplets, all Of which were black as
coal dust and males.

Request Of $4,000 Fifty-nine Years Ago
Will Be Looked Up.
Boston.-A hearing on a petition un-
der the will of Thomas W. Sweetser,
who died ffty-n1ne years ago, will be
given In the Essex probate court, when
an unusual provision-that of provid-
ing the poor Of Salem with cook stoves
will get close attention.
The will stipulated that $4,000 be
paid to his native city, that this be put
on interest at per cent forever and
that $500 be spent annually in buying
stoves and utensils for the poor if his
estate amounted to $4,000 or more.
Trustees to be elected must super
wise the administration of the charity
and must keep on hand a supply of
stoves Of different Sizes Then, too,
the trustees must keep on hand enough
pipes for all the stoves.
If the will was made public fifty
nine years ago no official notice was
taken, and the gift was forgotten.

HOT TIME FOR DELINouENTs.

We clip the following from one of
our exchanges to warn our delinquent
subscribers what hot time they will
have If they fail to pay their news
paper bills. The same fate awaits
our slow-paying advertisers:
An editor who died of starvation
was being escorted to Heaven by an
nigel sent for that purpose. " May
just glance in at the other place be-
fore we ascend to eternal happiness 2"
So they went below and skirmishing
around, taking in the sights. It so
happened that the angel lost track of
the editor and went around Hades
hunting him. He found him sitting
by an enormous furnace, tanning him
self and gazing with rapture upon
crowd Of lost souls In the fire. Over
the furnace was a sign bearing the
words, Delinquent subscribers"
Come said the angel. we must be
going now You go on. said the
editor, I'm not going. This Is heaven
enough for me.
