SEAMEN HANDLE
GOLD WITH LITTLE THOUGHT.

New York, Aug. 1O.-Gold, tons
of it, coming here on every large pas
senger liner that plies the Atlantic,
is handled by seamen and longshore-
men as nonchalantly as If it were
scrap iron.
On such ships as the Olympic ar
rive million of dollars worth of the
precious metal-shipments such as
would have swamped an old galleon
sailing the Spanish main. But the
heavy, steel-bound boxes of ingots
or coin stored away in the holds Of
the giant liners arouse among passen-
gers and crew far less interest than
the presence of an internationally
known actress or prize winning Pom
eranian.
1t was recently announced that
the U. S. Subtreasury vaults here al
ready hold $1,5OO,OOO,OOO in gold,
one-fifth of the worlds entire sup
ply.
Gold is classified as freight and a
certain rate per ton is paid for tran

special consideration is given to it's
safety. On each of these big ships is a
vault-known in ship language as
the strong room. 1t is big box or
chamber, heavily. lined with armor
plate steel located in one of the .ower
holds in such position that it can
be approached from Gbut one direct
ion, by a passage opening from but
one door or hatch.
There is no space around the strong
room for a would-be thief to work
with a drill, and indeed, if he should
get in he would probably find him
self prisoner.
Delivered to the ship in a Euro
pean port the purser carefully checks
the number of boxes, notes the stated
value of the contents, sees to it that
proper customs permits for shipment
have been issued and in the name of
the ship signs the bills of lading.
i Under his personal eye it is slowed
in the strcng room where it is again
checked. The room is locked and the
keys and combination of the door
are retained in the purser's own care.
On several of the ships electric alarm
devices add to the protection.

BILL, THE OUTLAW ELK
WAS TOO TAME

Yellowstone Park, Wyo., Aug. 10.
BILL" the outlaw elk of Yellow
stone, has been adopted by members
of New York Lodge B. P. o. E.
Bill had been in disgrace. His
crime lay in being too tame. Resi-
dents of Mammoth, where park head
quarters are located, spoiled Bill by
teaching him to eat from their
hands. From a pet he became a
pest. So tame was he after a sea-
son or two that he no longer joined
his brothers and sisters in their wan
derings about Yellowstone and be-
came an outcast.
Also his tastes degenerated. They
became almost goatlike. The day
came when no laundry hanging from
the backyard c1othesline was safe
from his appetite. His special taste
was for little silken dainties. Sc
they locked Bill up in a. corral and
there he has remained.
Then came the crowd Of New
York Elks, visiting the park OF
their way home from their recent
Los Angeles convention. A group oi
them Visited the corral, where {
number of calves are also kept.
.'Hello, Bill" cried one to an ap
preaching group. Bill knows hi
name, and thinking he was being
summoned, hurried up for food.
So surprised was Patrick Nc
Grath, exalted ruler of the New

SOUTH WILL INITIATE STEP
IN SOLVING RACE PROBLEM

Lake Junalaska, N. c., Aug. 10
The next big forward step in the SOL
ution of the race question will come
from the South the Rev. w. w. Alex
ander of Atlanta, secretary of the
Commission on Inter-Racial Cooper
alton, predicted here today at the
Laymen's Conference of the Metho-
dist Episcopal Church South.
81 say this with absolutely due
regard for the friendship of the
Negro in other sections and with the
fullest and unstinted gratitude for all
they have done in philanthropy and
education, in church and State" the
Rev. Mr.. Alexander said. "Neverthe-
less, the next big step in the inter
racial readjustment is to come from

''The South can afford to do it,
and what is great deal better, there
is a growing conviction here based
upon sense of justice and fair play
for all men. Then too the South has
social prestige to do this. The social
question figures largely in the race
question. So. the South can when it
will take the leadership in interna-
tional cooperation.
81 believe the South will assume
this leadership, with the same sort
of pride and determination as it led
the Nation in the overthrow of the
rum traffic.
| .It has been the universal opinion
of those who have come in close
touch with the question that Negro
leaders do not desire or seek social
equality. They have asked for police
protection, better housing, better san
itary and living conditions, better
educational facilities, and a chance
to develop into useful American cit
liens with every determination to
maintain their own social life and
purity Of the two racial stocks.
'sThe reasonableness and intelli-
gence of Negro leaders greatly en-
couraged the white men who have
come in contact with them. The fact
that Southern white men mad women
have manifested their interest in
Negro welfare has gone far to a1lay

HALF-BILLION LESS
TAXES AGREED UPON

Washington, Aug. 9.-Reductions
taxes and $52O,OOO,OOO in govern
ment expenditures this fiscal year
were agreed upon late today at a
conference between President Hard
can leaders of the house, including
members of the ways and means
committee.
Specific reductions on which it was
included:
Repeal of the excess profits tax,
retroactive to last January L, $780,
100000.

AS an Offset against this cut of
100000, it was agreed to in

100000.
Decision was had, ii was said, to

Secretary Mellon, including a license
tax on automobiles, a bank check

TICKLE.

When one reads of the fickleness
making pictures to impress the young
as well as those who are older, and
are supposed in the vernacular of
the censors of the movies and the
plays, to be presenting examples for
people to live by, we are inclined
to wonder at their sort of reasoning
and by what rule of conduct they
base their assumptions and their in
depreciation of the matter that forms
the plays and the pictures they pre-
sent for the consumption of the pub
lie.
The New York papers recently pub
lished a statement that Lou Tellen-
gin the noted matinee idol was seek
ing to obtain a divorce from Geral-
dine Farrar. Only three weeks ago
Farrar declared that the old time
way of making love had fallen into
">disuse and that Lou was the only
man in the world who knew how to
make love in the old fashioned way
which she declared is the sweetest
.rof all. Then suddenly she closed the
: door of her home to him and now
he seeks a divorce. 1t is said that
she intended to make the first move
in the case, but that he beat her in
! the race.
Since the death of Caruso, Farrar
is put down among the critics as the
greatest interpreter of the drama and
song in America, if not in the world.
The mental food that such artists
feed upon as well as the utter free
dom of those who follow the stage,
must induce an atmosphere in which
no ties are considered binding. But
the question arises, is it healthy for
such people to interpret morals, reli-
gion, and custom for the develop
ment and culture of the people as a
whole.
