London, June 30.-"Children

This startling statement was
made by Professor Arthur Keith,
a famous anthropologist, during a
recent lecture which he delivered
at the Royal Institution.
During the discussion which
followed the lecture several doc
tors declared than they had pro-
fessional experience with chill
dren born with "vestigal" tails,
and one physician stated that
among the recruits he examined
for the army during the war, nc
fewer than eight grown men pos

Elias Zimmerman, the Christian
lew who is to speak in@this city
at the First Methodist church on
Friday at 2:S0 and o'clock, was
talking recently about the attl-
tude Of the modern Jew towards
the Christian church. Most OF
the Jews in this country" he said
"come, as came, from Russia. IN
that country it is considered an
act of service to, Christ to torture
and kal the Jews. can recall
yiyidly many horrible scenes Oh
Russian massacres Of Jews. Jew
ish mothers have been cruelty
butchered, their children torn
from them, their homes pillaged.
All these things were done, and
even now are still being done, to
Jews by those who call themselves
christians. The result is that the
Door Jews actually believe that all
Christians want to kill Jews. But,
whenever the Jew reallzes tnal
this is not true of real Christians
in America, it becomes at once
easier to bring the knowledge OF
the Lord Jesus Christ to these
Jews. There are literally thou
sands of Jewish conversions In
these days, just because many
Christians are now turning to the
Jew with a message Of love and
sympathy"
Mr.. Zimmerman speaks at the
First Methodist church Friday
afternoon and evening, under the
auspices OF the Salem Ministerial
association. Admission is entirely
free, and the puplic is cordsaily
urged to come.

REAL ESTATE AGAIN

Those people who have been think.
ing that the real estate market is
dead, and as Dir. Cohen would say,
a piece Of crepe hung on its nose;
are mistaken. Real estate is live
asset, and the real estate business
is something from start to finish al.
ways. Sometimes it is in quiescent
state and then again it breaks out
like the measles, or the mumps.
All Of this is said on account OF
the fact that the Taft Realty Com
pany, of Anderson, is about to put
on big real estate sale in this coun,
ty.- Messrs G. E. Taft and E. F. Gel
ger, Of this company, were in Abbe-
vile Tuesday and told US so. They
will sell some time during the sum-
mer the John L. Tate. place, known
as the Hunter place. The place, will
be subdivided and sold in separate
parcels.
These lands will be advertised in
the Press and Banner shortly. If the
readers of this paper ever expect tc
buy real estate, they should take no
tice of the advertisement, because
the ship is scraping bottom now
and real estate will be cheaper thi:
summer than it will be for many
summers to come.

The sentence of the court was at

10 years so Il bail could be granted
by the presiding judge, pending al,
appeal. After listening to F. B.

clerk of the court. Judge Prince,
said: ... :
81 have listened to the appeals of
counsel for the defendant and have
heard them plead for mercy for this
defendant because of his wife and
four children. This is one Of the sad
duties Of judicial officer, for every
time some violator Of the law IS
punished, an innocent woman and
some innocent children suffer. But
then I must also remember the chill
dren Of the man who was killed.
. The Ashley case has been one of
the hardest contested legal battles

troduced testimony, to show that ,Po-
liceman Hughes had disaraned him
self a short time before Ashley fired,
handing his gun to Chief of Police
Page, who was disarmed by two of
Ashley's friends. The defendant
pleaded self defense, claiming that
he had shot after the policeman had
cursed him and showed him back,
reaching for his gun as he did so.
Defense witnesses also testified
Chief Page picked Hughes gun from
the sidewalk. and that it had not
been given 10 Page by Hughes.
