Ed Ware declared that this shot passed between him and anoth CT man and knocked a lead pencil from his hand. It was then, according to John Martin, who was one of the guards outside the church and who admitted having a pistol, that the three Beeo brothers opened fire on the occupants of the car He says he heard one of the Beco brothers say, I've shot one and got his gun
 Most of the negroes were garrulous and each when called on shuffled to the barred door and answered questions rap idly. None except Ware had any school ing and only two of the twelve were renters Tlhe others were share crop pers.

 Ware complained at length that the merchant refused to give him an ite nlzed statement of his account, from which he intended to pluck out what his share croppers owed him. He admit ted that the merchants offered to % over the books with him in person, and explain any item that did not appear correct but Ware said he knew nothing about bookkeeping and held out for the itemiized statement He also complained that the mercrants planned to buy his cotton without giving him a fair price for it.

Watching the shaggy sloyenly- creatures one is impressed most by the deporable condition to which their state of ignorance has brought them.
 They are ignorant cotton field ne groes, one dozen of the thousands and thousands scattered through the Black Belt, and not far removed from the primitive days of sayagery. According to the evidence, they were led astray by a shrewd, malicious negro who instilled in them an evil spirit of malice against the whites,S solely for his own gain. They will become sacrifices on the alter of ignorance. but the man who brewed the devils stew. according to their evi dence, so far has saved his own skin.

66TH CONGRESS BREAKS RECORD
 FOR IDLENESS
Has Been in Session 12O Days and Passed But One
 Constructive Law.
HOUSE HAS DONE NOTHING TO REDUCE
 HIGH PRICES
Senate Continues to Waste Its Time in Republican
 Attack on the Treaty.

Washington. Sept. 16.-The Sixty
 sixth Con@ress promises to be d record maker tn time wasting. It has
 Leen in session 12O days without
 putting through a single constructive
 ueasura with the exception of the
 resolution to submit the Woman Suf-
 traEe Amendment to the Constitu-
 ten.
 The House has spent months talk
 luE about Prohibition, petty investi-
 2a-iuus and a Soldiers Land Bill. The
 Senate has frittcred away the entire session denouucing tho League of Nations
 During the '1st days of the Sixty . fifth Congress- six appropriation bills 1 were framed and ready to -1ass, but { were killed by the Republican ill., 1 buster, the purpose of which was to force the President to call an extra
 session. Whel the present Congress ] convened, May 19s the Republicans
 trimmed down these bills to meet post war conditions and put them through.
 The President demanded railroad l and other reconstruction laws, but inc Republican leaders halted and were preparing to take a recess when | the call for action to reduce the high CH-- of living came. Just before the | House prepared to quit, the President appealed to the leaders not to ad- 1 journ at that time but pass measures | 10 enable tho Department of Justice to prosecute the profiteers and goug- CTS. The resolution providing for a recess of five weeks was rescinded.
 On Aug. the President appeared before a joint session of the two Houses and urged additional laws for dealing with speculatOrS and profi-
 tcers- Nearly six weeks have passed and the proposed legislation has not been sent to the President.
 An amendment to the Food Control Act has passed the House and the Senate but is still in conference. So 1 is the Prohibition Enforcement Bill. Record for likeness. The Senate Is inching along with tho Peace Treaty. It will be several i weeks before the ratification resolu- 1 tion reaches a vote. No Congress
 within the memory of the oldest mem bers has such a record of non-ac- cOmplishment.
 Prcsidr-t Wilson was criticized by Senators I'earose, New, FreIinghuy- sen, Watson and NVadsworth, and Representative Gillet Mondeu and l Good for nO- calling the SiXty-sixth Congress at once, so that they could put through constructive legislation. Senator PenrOse has been here less than fifteen days since the presens session met. He is in Pennsylvania locking after his political fences. The Finance Committee, of which Pcnrose is Chairman, is cluttered mp with small bills sent over by the House. The House has no definite plans for railroad or other recon struCtion measures. For months the ! Interstate and Foreign Commerce Committee has been holding hearings on railroad bills and suggestions, such as the Plumb plan, but are far from ! an agreement on a measure yet.

LIGHTNING KIT
 VICTORY STATUE
 IN STRASSBURG

Strasbu~r, Sept. 1s.---It has become known only recently, that the huge statue of Germania, which stands in the public square here commerno orat- ing the victory of the Prussians in 1870 and the foundation of the Elm plrc of the Eohenzollerns was shat tered by lightning in August, 1918, when the Allied armies were driving the Germans before them all along the western front. The strobe of lightning now regarded as symbolic Of the approaching fate of the Ger man armies caused consternation among the supersttious Germans and their authorities here decreed that Hsolute silence be kept regarding it. No one was allowed to see the monu- ment thereafter except workmen who were at once employed to repair it.
 The lightning struck the sword which "Germania" brandishes toward heaven. The Imperial Easle was damaged and the Angel of War, which stands at the foot of the statue was wrecked. Despite the repairs, traces of the effect of the thunder bolt still are visible.

He became one of the leading statesmen of Athens, and the history of his life is closely mixed up with that of Greece. With all the power of his oratory he supported that which he considered right and beneficial to the State.
 It was at this time that Philip of Macedon began his encroach,nents up- on the possessions of Athens to the north of Allgean. Philip took pos session of the towns of Amphipolis, Pydna, Potidea, and Methone. His plans were to subjugate all Greece. He continued to keep the Athenians at a distance, to cajole, and to de- ceive them; and he kept them in good humor. And there-there stood

Among all the gifts that the Gods bestow, the greatest of these is Elo- quence. The power of swaying your fellow man. An orator, like the poet. is born, not made. On Sept. Is, B. c. 322, Demosthenes the greatest of the Greek orators dled by pOison.
 He is a burning example of the overcoming of the impossible on the path of a destined career, and by magnificent will-power. He had ex- traordinary physical defects, to such an extent that he was nicknamed The Stammerer." Day after day, with a patience almost superhuman, he went to the seashore, filled his mouth with pebbles, obliging himself to enunciate each word of a written address with the utmost clarity and flow of voice.
