LONG DELAY OF LAW
CAUSED A LYNCHING

Irwinton, Ga, May 23.-(Ry Asso-
ciated Press).-A mob stormed the
Wilkinson county Jail today and after
a battle in which one guard and one
of the mob were slightly wounded, re-
moved Jim benson, a negro, sentenced
to hand June 10Th on a charge of
criminal assault. After getting the
negro the mob placed a rope around
his neck and hurried off in automo-
biles. There is no trace of the negro,
but the authorities are convinced he
was lynched. benson was convicted
here more than two years ago on the
charge of assaulting a 72-year-old
white woman. A long legal battle fol-
lowed in which Denson's execution
was. postponed several times. The
case finally reached the United States
supreme court, which affirmed the
lower courts verdict.

COCOANUTS IN THE MAILS
WORRY POSTAL CLERKS
ON FLORIDA EAST COAST

Miami, May 22.-(By Associated
Press)-The Florida cocoanut has lost
some of it's succulent flavor for the
South Florida postal clerks just as
cornbeef and prunes became persona
non grata with the doughboys during
the world war.
In the case of the cocoanut versus
postal clerks, however, it is matter
of the fruits entry into the mails,
father than a palatable dislike.
1t is all caused by the hundreds of
tourists who annually insist on mail
ing the nut without placing it IN car
ton. Unlike the cast-off collar, how
ever, the nuts topography will not
permit Uncle Sans various notations.
Frequently, for instance, clerk in
handling the parcel will find that the
stamp has slipped over the destina-
ton. Neither have rubber stamps
yet been furnished that will fit the
features of the cocoanut and leave a
legible impression.
However, the clerks assert, they
realize that the cocoanut advertises
the state and they are filled with the
chamber of commerce spirit. There.
fore they are willing to bear the trials

MUCH GOOD DONE BY
THE WASHINGTON MEETING

Sydney, N. S. W., April ia re-
view of the recent Washington confer
ences was given here by Senator
Pearce, Australia's delegate, who was
the honor guest at dinner given by
the "Get Together Club" at which T.
Sammons, the American consul-gen-
eral, presided.
Premier Hughes, in introducing
Senator Pearce, said that the confer
ence had removed the present danger
of war and that the hope of the world
lay in a good understanding between
the two English speaking nations.
Senator Pearce said that the most
distasteful experience of his American
trip occurred when he was compelled
to write himself down as an @alien.'
He said no eloquence could describe
the magnitude of the accomplishments
of the conference.
"The United States and Japan were
drifting fast toward war which
would have been more terrible thar
the last war, because there would have
been introduced into it not only the
implments of destruction invented anc
used during the last war, but other:
more destructive than the mind Of
man had conceived hitherto" he de
clared. "This was made plain at tht
conference.
at was fine to hear the British dele
gates agree to the proposal that Brit
ain should accept naval equality with
the United States. This was a ter
rible sacrifice for an empire that liveC

HAS MANY MEMBERS

Jacksonville, May 2.-(Associated
Press).-The ability to dance is not
a requisite of pleasure, according to
Miss Virginia B. Hamilton, student
at Stetson University, DeLand, and
president of the Anti-Dancing Society.
The status of the society is not exact
ly known, but Miss Hamilton told her
auditors at the Sunday School-B. Y. P.
U. conference of the Couthern Baptist
Convention here, that it originated
with her and two other young women
in 1919. The membership has grown
to more than 1000, she says.
Miss Hamilton is the daughter OF
the Rev. W. w. Hamilton, former
superintendent of evangelism of the
Southern Baptist Convention and now
pastor of the First Baptist church at
New Orleans.
Miss Hamilton said that she and
two other young women, at that time
only IA years old, decided that just
because they did not dance, it was not
necessary for them to be wall
flowers" They found also that it die
not detract from their popularity. So
all of sudden, they pledged them,
selves to refrain from the terpisi
chorean temptation. They calleo
themselves the Anti-Dancing Society
They kept their secret for while but
later decided to let others in on then
new found pleasures. Then it was de
cided to adopt the name alpha Delta
Sigma" not as sorority, but merely
the Greek letters for "a. D. S."
Membership in the society carrie:
only a pledge that the applicant alb
stain from dancing and encourag,
others to do likewise.

eggs, hinges around the fact that he
emphasizes the use of. table scraps In
the ration. Similar. results obtain
where large commercial f1ocks are
given access to daily allowances OF
eanitary, well-selected and palatable
garbage. Although the character Of
garbage varies throughout the year,
due to the fact that more succulent
vegetables and fruits are used during
the summer, this refuse is also val
liable substitute for costly grains and
concentrates in the hen menu.
Unfortunate results which In some
instances have followed the use OF
garbage are due to feeding mixture
Of table scraps that was not carefully
selected. Hens like fresh garbage, but
are not able to digest scraps of tin,
phonograph needles and similar for
eign material. Unless such substances
are separated from the garbage, dis
astrous results invariably follow and
the poultryman soon abandons gar
bage feeding and condemns it as I'M
satisfactory. The Department of Ag-
riculture recommends that fresh gar
bage be run through a meat or vege'
table chopper, and mixed with little
ground feed before it Is fed to the
fowls.
As much of the table refuse should
be fed as the flock will clean up with
a relish in the course of an hour. All
feed which the birds reject should be
removed from the feeding pens or
yards as soon as possible thereafter.
Otherwise, it sourS and cOntaminateS
the premises and, subsequently, if the
fowls eat it it invariably causes d.
gestive troubles.
Where garbage is fed, it is also pre-
requisite to provide a light ration OF
grain twice daily, as well as to supply
dry mash In hopper before the flock.
AS a rule table scraps are rich in pro-
TEN and only occasionally is it neceS-
sary to supplement the mash with ap-
proximately per cent of meat meal.
During the summer garbage decom-
poses and ferments quickly and it
Lust be fed before 1t reaches this
stage The feeding of garbage Is IA
vored during cold weather because in
the winter the refuse keeps better.
Suburban flock-owners may often Sc
cure the garbage from neighboring
families who do not keep hens. This
source Of feed may be so plentiful that
the f1ock-owner can expand his hen
keeping operations and even afford to
pay a small amount for the garbage.
Experiments in feeding garbage at
the government experiment farm at
Beltsville, Md, indicate that ten hens
will consume about one quart Of gar
bage daily. A suitable dry mash as
supplement to this garbage consists
Of three parts by weight of cornmeal,
one part of bran, one part Of mid
dlings and 5 per cent of meat scraps.
This mash is kept before the fowls all
the time. If the table scraps contain
much fruit and vegetable Feelings
more mash should be added, while if
the garbage consists chiefly of potato
Feelings, bread and meat less mash
should be used. Care should be exer
cised to drain off soapy water Or ex-
cess liquid from the garbage.

NORRIS ANNOUNCES SENATE
CANDIDACY

William |. Norris, President
of the State Senate, formally an
nounced his candidacy for the
Democratic nomination for Unit
ed States Senator Tuesday night,
accompanying his announcement
with a statement of the political
principles for which he stands.
Senator Norris declared that
my record in the General As
sembly of Maryland is my plat
form. On prohibition he stat
ed that his record is we'll known
to the people and he will not
change it. He also advocates
full political rights for women,
preservation of principles of local
self-government and resistance
of aggression by Federal au-
thorities on State governments.
The announcement puts two
candidates definitely in the field
for the Democratic nomination,
David ]. Lewis, of Cumberland,
former Representative, having
already begun his campaign.
Neither the State nor the city
Democratic organization forces
have lined up behind any candi-
date, Mr.. Norris entrance into
the fight having been taken
without assurance of organized
support. 1t is known, however,
that the Senate President has
received a number of letters
from county members of the
Legislature pledging their sup
portif he should enter the fight.
