ZIONIST CONFERENCE

Great attention will be given the convention Of
the World Zionist conference which assemblies in Lon
don on the Fourth of july to attend which number
OF the most eminent Jews in the United States have
already reached the British capital. The American
delegation includes Hon. Louis D. Brandeis, who is
an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme
Court and honorary president of the American Zion
list Federation: Judge Julian K Mack, an
other, eminent Jurist, ornament to the
American bench and bar; Nathan Strauss
noted financier; Mrs. Mary Fes, Widow
of a noted manufacturer and philanthropist
who became a millionaire through production of a
remarkably effective article of SOAP Professor Felix
Frankfurter, noted educationisC; with more than
thirty others of the Jewish race resident and con-
SpicuOus in various parts of the United States.
Never has been so close to realization the long
dreamed of return Of the Hebrews to Paestne-or
such of them as desire doing So it had been talked
of for generations; but not until 1897 was given
material organization, working to bring about the
great conception, which to purchase from the
Turkish government the Holy Land to colonize it
with Jews from all lands where they oppressed
and downtrodden.
The first Zionist Congress was held at Basel,
Switzerland. August 20 1897 Another was held at
the same place August TO- 1898 And Their have been
others in various years since.
In the United States the American organization
is called the Federation of American Zionsts with
near 200 subordinate societies and large member
ship.
Early in the working of the Zionist Congress
It was Incorporated and kas been extending from
time to time the ur that the corporation established
toward the ends sought.
The great world war has resulted in giving Pal
estine to the Jew without having to purchase Sow
eregnty from the Turk; and they free to occupy
and establish Independent sovereignty as soon as
they work out details of the necessary machinery

GRIEF EVERYWHER

one flower bespangled lawn, land to rest and read
in, and bid all woe begone. Here we should all be
Joyous, where tranquil springtimc lives, where roth

At the Isis Today.
Will Rogers in "Jubilo."

A hobo with a scence of loyalty is
supposed to be rarity. But wan
Rogers proves that he is just that.
The star at the Isis tomorrow presents
a knight of the road who locates the
train robbery and saves from prison
the man who gave him his first long
distance job Jubilo, the hobo. had
no particular friendship for the man,
but in his daughter had found some
one who meant more to him than the
free life he had been leading in the
kingdom of Vagabondia.
The story concerns itself with
gang of train robbers who whitewash
the fIanls of one of their horses so
that it resembles Jim Hardy's horse
In due time suspicion rests on Hardy
(Charles French). But Jubilo had
come upon the gang dividing their
spells, and after they had gone, found
a pot of whitewash. Later, Bert
Rocker, one of the gang, comes to the
Hardy farm where Jubilo works, to
tell him that he will soon be arrested
for the robbery. In the course of the
conversation, which Jubilo overhears,
the fact is brought out that Rocker
planned the robbery to jail Hardy for
revenge. In the course of the ensuing
fight Hardy shoots his tormentor. But
the sheriff who comes to the farm
says he now has sufficient evident to
arrest the real culprit. Rocker has
been only slightly wounded and at
tempts to escape, but is caught Then
Rose Hardy (Josie Sedgwick) thanks
Jubilo for the part he has played and
asks him to stay at the farm perman-
emily. From the way she asks him,
Jubilo knows that his days on the road
are numbered.
The production was directed by
Clarence Badger and Is splendidly
acted by a small but excellent cast.

GIVEN $4,000 BALM
FOR BEING HANGED
Mississippi House Passes Bill to
Compensate Will Purvis
of Lamar.

jackson, Miss, Feb. rs. - Five
thousand dollars compensation for
twice facing the gallows and serving
two years in the penitentiary, al
though an innocent man, was voted
today by the lower house of the
Mississippi legislature to Will Pur-
Wis of Lamar county,
Purvis was given the death pen
atty twenty-six years ago for the
murder of Will Buckley, young
farmer, near Columbia, Miss, where
he was called to testify concerning
a White-capping incident.
On the day of execution the moose
slipped from Purvis' neck when the
trap was sprung and he fell to the
ground unhurt. Officers were again
attempting to perform the execution
when his attorneys intervened. The
hanging was postponed and the SEN
tence commuted to life imprison-
ment.
After serving two years in the
penftentiary Purvis was exonerated
by a deathbed confession of Joe
Beard, Marion county farmer, who
claimed that Buckley was killed by
Louis Thornhill, another farmer, and
that Purvis had no part in the kill
ing. A pardon was granted imme-
diately by the governor.
The bill to compensate Purvis was
supported by Representative Buckley,
cousin of the murdered man.

Good Advice.

start with the dealer, not with
the car" is the advice of ]. Sid Penn,
Of the Heidelberg Auto Co., to pres
pective purchasers of automobiles.
The conventional process by which
the car buyer works up to a deal is
to select the particular car which he
thinks be wants-then to find the
local agent.
Mr.. Penn believes that more en-
during satisfaction will result if the
prospective purchaser thinks first of
that local dealer in whom he can
have confidence and counsels with
him concerning the intended pur-
chase. This is new idea in auto
motive lines when all cars are gem
orally good. The Importance of the
dealer is growing at the same pace
with which the manufacturer is
climbing into ever greater produc-
tion.
Why should any man buy two or
three automobiles in order to f1nd
out things which a conscientious and
square dealer can tell him at once?'
asks Mr.. Penn.
Consult the dealer frst, is the new
slogan.

THREE FACE "A CHARGE
OF KILLING AN INFANT
The Body of Newborn Child is
Found on River Bank at
Natchez.

Natchez, Miss, Feb. -25. Miss
Ollie Setback, L. e. Lucas and Mrs.
Ethel Robinson are held in Jail here
on the charge of murder. Affidavits
against the three were made by Cor
orner r. e. Smith after an inquest
| to determine the circumstances of the
death of newborn male white in
fant found on the bank of the Miss
issippi river here. Miss Setback and
Lucas are charged with an accessory.
All profess innocence and have re-
tanned counsel to represent them at
the preliminary trial, which will be
held Friday.
The body of the infant was found
at the waters edge by Jerry Cont,
negro, who reported his discovery.
The child's head was buried in the
mud and a receptacle in which its
body had evidently been borne to
the river was found nearby. DR.. w.
H. Aikman testified, at the coroner's
inquest that the child was fully de-
veloped and apparently had been
born alive.
Pending Investigations by Chief of
Police Ryan, acting as special con-
When it was resumed a number of
witnesses we're called. Rosa Case,
the first witness to testify, claimed
that she was present when Miss
Setback gave birth to a child short
while since, and stated that Miss
Setback had declared Lucas to be it's
father. She also alleged that Lucas
was in the room of Miss Setback
shortly after she had given birth to
the child. The witness stated that
she left the room to get physician
and that on her return the child was
placed 1t in the back yard. She said
1t was also stated by other wit
nesses that Mrs. Ethel Robinson had
been present and that she and Lucas
left the house within few minutes
of each other, Lucas going by the
front way and Mrs. Robinson the
back, the woman carrying reeep-
tacle in which the body had last been
seen, and similar to the one found
near the body discovered at the wa
er's edge. 1t was alleged that Mrs.
Robinson lifted the receptacle over a
fence to a man claimed to be Lucas.
In her testimony, Mrs. Robinson
testified that she had removed a re-
eeptacle from the room Of Miss
Setback, but declared that she did not
know what it contained and had
placed 1t in the back gard. She said
that she had not given it to Lucas.
1t was declared by Rosa Case that
the physician did not arrive for some
time after she had called him, and
after he did come Miss Setback con-
lscealed the birth Of the child from
him, saying that she was only slight
ly indisposed.
The verdict of the coroner's jury
was that the infant found ON the
Mississippi river had come to its
death by suffocation and recommend
ed that Miss Setback and Lucas be
held on the charge of the murder and
Mrs. Robinson as an accessory. Lu-
cas- is an engineer for a local man
