Joe Jagg had felt that he was ruin- ed when prohibition set in, but after the purchase of certain well-known in gredients and few laboratory ses- sions in his own room, he began to suspect life might not prove to be all sad and dreary.
 "How's the old brew coming along Joe?" queried an interested friend on the street.
 "Ill let you know tonight" replied Joe confidentially! q gave the key to my closet to my landlady today and told her I was afraid I'd lose it. If she's alive when I get back home. the stuff can't be so awful bad"

12.FINGERED COMMUNITY

Bandera, Tex, Sept. f5.-When
t3..4 people Ct this community read in
a newspaper few days ago that
John Cope, who recently passed a
test for policeman in New York, has
six fingers upon each hand and six
toes upon each foot, and that each
of his children has seven fingers up
on each hand and seven toes upon
each foot, they were not at all as
tonished. Every member of more
than a dozen families of the hilly
section around Bandera is each
equipped with six fingers upon each
hand and six toes upon each foot.
This remarkable freak of nature
began to be manifested in the Ban
dera section more than fifty years
ago, and it seems to have spread un-
til it is no longer an uncommon
thing with the people. The matter
has been the subject of much discus
sion and investigation on the part of
anthropologists. In all cases the
extra fingers and toes are of normal
size and development.

ENGINEER SHOOTS, MAN
Workman Fired on After Heated
Alteration.

Walterboro, Sept. 15.-Saturday
morning Gordon Rhoden. locomotive
engineer for the Avondale Lumber
Company, at Stokes, shot, it is al
legged, and fatally wounded Junior
Crosby, a negro workman, who died
few hours after the shooting. 1t
seems that the logging train was 60
ing out into the woods early Friday
morning and stopped to take on wood
Mr.. Rhoden ordered the negroes to
load the wood and one of them de-
clined to do 20 and, it is said, was
insolent abo-t it. Rhoden got off the
engine and engaged in a controversy
with the negro. About this time he
was warned to watch another negro
Junior Crosby, whom he saw ad-
vancing with billet of wood raised
in a threatening mannerr. Rhoden
ran to the engine and climbed aboard
going to his tool chest for his pistol.
The negro came on and climbed upon
the engine, still carrying the billet
of wood, it is alleged. Rhoden seeing
that his life was endangered shot the
negro three times, two of the bullets
taking effect. one of them going
through the body. The negro fingered
a while and died. Rhoden came on to
Walterboro following the shooting
and surrendered to the sheriff. He
was later released on bond, Judge
Peurifoy fixing. the amount at $1,000
which was promptly given, j. C. Net
ties and J. G.. Thompson becoming
sureties.

AMERICANS IN GERMANY
ARE SITTING ON WORLD
Penalty That Exacts Good Behavior
Is Threat to Send Soldier
Home.

"You can't say anything too good
about the A. E. F. in Germany" said
Lieutenant Cody, lately returned
from the army of occupation to
New York Times reporter. 'The men
and officers almost without excep-
tion dread the day when they will
come back. The men particularly dis
like the thought so much that they
refuse to talk about it. There never
has been an army which is sitting on
the world as those fellows are.
with many opportunities, they
avoid getting into trouble because
the penalty is being sent home. An
other reason is the spirit of sports
manship which has been cultivated
by General Allen. There are foot
ball, baseball, polo, shooting and
track teams always trying to break
records. When / left three teams
were, tied for first place, the Quar-
termaster Corps, the Headquarters
Toop and Fifth Infantry teams.
'They have gone in for horse rae
ing good deal, and have built their
own race track and steeplechase
course. AS a result there has been a
general hunt for good horses by Off
GERS, and they have bred and trained
some Of the finest animals the army
ever contained. It makes good horse
manship.' They also play polo a go ID
deal: The rifle teams have resulted m
more sharpshooters and marksmcn
being produced than ever bef,re in
an army of that size. When ah.v
competed against the British, French
and Belgians, they took first place in
nearly every event. They beat US at
machine gun fire. I knew one officer
who felt so badly at his score that
he wouldn't permit his name to be
put down, and said he would wait till
he got back with line troops so he
could get necessary practice. He
wouldn't lower his teams record.
although the men are able to buy
all the beer and wine they want
there is hardly an instance of man
taking too much. Drinking wine and
beer has made them temperate. No
whiskey or cognac is permitted in the
area, and even at the officers club
cocktails are barred. Champagne is
less than, 81 bottle, and the men
can buy it if they want to, but they
seem to prefer the other Wines"
"There is one cafe in Coblenz
which is patronized almost entirely
by Americans" said Captain Kane.
"They won't sell beer, so they can
keep out their fellow-Germans, and
get only the trade of Americans,
which is much more Portable. Every
one of them wears uniform made
Of officers cloth: There never was
better drssed army and the men are
proud of their appearance"
"When an officer travels he is con-
stantly the object of solicitous atten-
tion," said Captain Kane "They
bring you pillows and everything to
make you comfortable. A conductor
never asks for your ticket and if an
officer wanted to he could travel all
over Germany for nothing. 1 always
bought my ticket, but the conductor
never seemed to want It. Once I was
smoking in a car, which apparently
was not a smoking car, and the con-
ductor hurried off and came back
with sign which he slapped up on
the wall. It. said smoking car !"
