Four Negroes were lynched in Ala

lana, 3 in Mississippi, l in North Caro-
lima, 2 in Oklahoma, 2 in South Caro-
lima, 5 in Tennessee, 8 in Texas, 2
in Virginia, 1 in West Virginia, and
l in Wyoming. In addition to these
cases of lynhcing, IT'S men, women
and children were tortured, burned
and killed at East St. Louis in July,
1917, and three Negroes were killed
by a mob at Chester, Pa, in Septem-
Der, 1917. In some Of these cases the
1ynchings were particularly atrocious.
In Tennessee, for example, three men

Milwaukee, April ST. do not like

tain that LenrOOt has been elected. So
I can say that all the expense of this
special election, all the political effort
which has been made on all three
sides, alfsof the attacks and the per-
sonal innuendo that has been INDUCED
in could have been stopped and pre-
vented if the governor had been given
the right to appoint senator to fill out
Paul Hastings term. The state would
have had Mr.. Lenroot just the same,
and without all the broth of battle
that it has gone throug to bring about
the result. I shall have more to say
after the official returns are in.'

Early Use of Metals.

As compared with Mexico, the tools
employed by the ancient Easter island
ers, though like in shape, are yet more
wonderful when the purpose for which
they were used is considered. 1t is
believed that the use of iron was I'M
known to the more ancient people of
the earth; certainly few traces are
found. But among the Mexicans there
is evidence of red copper having been
fashioned into tools; and although that
is wonderful enough when the usage is
seen to which the comparatively soft
metal was put, yet still more marvel
Gus are the tools Of volcanic glass
which wrought, carved, cut and CHS
eled the huge images and blocks of
stone to be found on Easter island. Re

A Disappearing island.

At Lake Orion, in Michigan, there is
certain mysterious island which
comes to the surface each summer, on
ly to disappear again every winter.
Quite regularly, along the middle of
August, the island hobs up above the
waters of the lake, and down it goes
again about the middle of February.
Once some farmers of that part of the
country loaded the island with heavy
stones, thinking that, when it went
down the next time, it would stay
down. But, when it was summer once
more, up came the mysterious island
as serene as ever. This is one Of the
most famous of the curious floating
islands.-Christian Science Monitor.
