ENGLAND

fighting between Marcus Garvey and
cyril V Briggs took a new turn last

trict Magistrates Court alleging that
in an editorial in the Crusader
Briggs had accused him of raping a
girl in London, of deserving his wife,
and living in adultery with another
woman. Briggs was Immediately held
in $500 bond for the Grand Jury.
Bail was furnished for him by julius
Green.
A short time ago Briggs brought
suit against Garvey because Garvey
said that Briggs was passing for
white. Al the trial of the case, Gar
vey offered to make a retraction of
the statement Briggs consented and
dropped he suit.
In commenting upon the case
Briggs is said to have admitted that
Garyey had scored a point on him,
saying, however. ITS my move next,
keep your eyes ON the board. That's
all | will say for the present"
Briggs has for year been conduct
ing a relentless propaganda against
Garvey and his allied organizations.

ANYWAY, SCHEME WORKED
Experimental Secured Sleep, but
Hardly Knows Just Where to
Award the Credit.

He couldn't sleep. He had read that
if one would put the tips Of the
fingers of one hand against the tips
Of the fingers of the other, one could
go to sleep Immediately and the next
thing would be daylight.
He decided not to tell his wife.
With the lights out he placed the tips
of his fingers together and lay still
for several minutes. Then he moved
slightly and was quiet again for sew
eral minutes. Naturally after time
he began to ,squirm, but he kept the
finger tips together.
The wife, noticing the restlessness
and the finger tip performance, in
quired irritably:
Edward, what In the world are you
doing?"
Nothing" he sheepishly replied,
and soon was asleep from the fatigue
Of holding the finger tips together.
Now he doesn't know whether to
give credit to the finger tip ordeal or
thanks to his wife for breaking the
spell"
