At Eighty-Four,
This Man Hikes
From Chihuahua
DRIVEN FROM MEXICO, VETERAN
STARTS OVERLAND FOR
KENTUCKY.

Do you think that by the time you
are eighty-four years old, you will be
able to hike it from Chihuahua, Mexi- !,
co, to Warren county, Ky?
There is man in Hattiesburg to-
day who is more than eighty-four who
is well on his way toward completing
the trip.
Perhaps if bunch of Mexicans
were to ride up behind you, and in the
simple and direct language of the
greaser outlaws, tell you to beat it.
and beat it quickly" it might serve
as tonic to induce rapid and extern

That's the effect 1t had on William
Johnson, eighty-four years old, former
ly of Warren county, KY, and later of
the state of Chihuahua, now occupied
by the Villa forces, who says he's go
ing to reach his home in the Blue
Grass State in better health than
when he departed from Mexico.
Johnson drifted into the City Hall
last night somewhat tired, and very
| much broke. He told the officials at
the building his story, and he told a
true one. He didn't have any money,
he said, and no prospect Of getting
any. He wasn't asking for coin. He
wanted "eats", he said, and place to
sleep. He got both.
For his bed and board he told the
following story:
81 had small, well-paying ranch,
1870 miles east Of Chihuahua, up until
the first of December, when l was
visited one night by representatives
of the Carranza faction. They told
me to leave the country and leave it

Frank Gressett wasa mayor Bat

with selling half pint of whiskey for
twenty-five cents to a man giving the

Authorities at the City Hall figured
it out that had Frank made the whis-

given the water and other necessary
ingredients, his profit could not have
been more than twenty-three cents,

Frank was fined SIS and cost by

He is now trying to figure how much
money he is really out. after adding
up the lawyers fee, the cost Of being
arrested and Of having to appear In

Frank said he was innocent, that
the complaining witness had made a

GENERAL VILLA is DEDFIANTl
Hands Off Mexico and Let Us Settle
our Differences Alone, Says
Northern Chief.

Ell Paso, Tex, March 11.-General
Villa, in a statement received from
Torreon, declared that in event of in
tervention of foreign troops to subdue
the Carranza forces, he and all other
Mexicans would unite against the in
vaders. He denied recent interviews
in American newspapers, which, he
said, had just been called to his at
tention, in which he was quoted as
having said that he would not oppose
armed intervention on the part of sew
eral powers Ito reduce the CarranZa
troops to order" provided that he
would be made commander of such q
move.
There is nothing more grotesque
and absurd than such an assertion,
said the message from the northern
leader, "since |, as a true Mexican,
always have insisted that al our trou-
bles be settled solely amoLg our
selves.
should, unfortunately, some nation
invade our territory, | would be ready
to fight against it without measuring
the danger nor the number of the
invaders until | would see the entire
country in the possession of MeXicans
only All of us would fight united
against the common enemy"

AS early as 1898 night school for
Negroes was started in Philadelphia.
In 1874 an industrial school was pro-
posed, and In 1856 the first Negro
university in the new world was start
ed, named Wilberforce university. and
now one of the largest Negro institu-
tions of higher learning in the country.
There are operated under the au-
spices of this church the following
institutions, each one named for one
of it's deceased bishops: Allen univer-

the Shaffer High school in Liberia.
West Africa; Turner seminary, Shell
byville, Tenn, and Kittrell college in
North Carolina, and institutions in
Capetown, South Africa, and George
town, South America.
The members of this church have
raised more than 100000 to support
their schools. and their graduates are
scattered all over the world-where
Negroes are. Some are teaching the
Filipinos; some are organizing and
training the militia Of Liberia, the Ne
gro republic Of West Africa. and they
are in every state in the Union in al
most every honorable occupation OF
labor. hundred African students
have been trained in these schools
for the purpose of going back to their
homes to help raise their people. The
watchword of the church is ''self-re-
spect and self-help"
