NEGROES WERE IN FLORIDA IN 1928
Two Africans Were Members of NarVaez' Expedition of That Year,
 According to History.

The first record of negro slaves within the present boundaries of the United States is found in an account of the Spanish expedition of Narvaez to Florida in 1928, which included two negroes. But the negro was not in Florida to stay until 1865, when few landed with Memedez' colonists. It is believed the Spaniards had negroes with them in their unfortunate colony of San Miguel de Gualdape in 1526, which J. J. Shea locates in the neigh borhood of Jamestown, Va. Fl. Fl. Bancroft, in his Arizona and New Mexico" makes 1t clear the negro was in some of the early exploration and missionary parties to that territory. Doubtless the negroes continued in the province until the Spaniards were driven out in 1860. ('Introduction of Negroes Into the United States" by O. A. Stakely, in Magazine Of Ameri- can History, November, 1S91). The Treasurer, owned by the earl of War wick, and a Dutch vessel brought slaves to Jamestown in 1619.

 "Lloyd George" said Chicagoan, made a good speech at a dinner we gave him in London last season.
 Lloyd George said he was often &C., cused of being inconsistent, of chang ing his mind.
 "'Well,' he went on, men change their shirts, don't they? We rather admire them for that. It's hygienic. "'So with the mind. As conditions change, the mind must be changed to conform with them. Blame the man who never changes his mind. How stale and soiled and dusty such a mans mind must bel He who changes his mind to harmonize with circum- stances, though, Is spiritually clean and fresh, is living according to the laws of spiritual hygiene.'"

THE DEBATE.

Synopsis.-With his grandfather, small Ramsey Milholland is watch ing the Decoration Day Parade" in the home town. The old gentle man, a veteran of the Civil war, endeavors to impress the young ster with the significance of the great conflict, and many years art erward the boy was to remember his words with startling vivtdness. In the schoolroom, few years afterward, Ramsey is not distfn- guished for remarkable ability, though his pronounced dislikes are arithmetic, "Recitations" and Ger man. In sharp contrast to Ram sey's baclzwardness is the precocity of little Dora Yocum, a young lady whom in his bitterness he denom1- mates Teachers Pet" In high school, where he and Dora are classmates. Ramsey continues to feel that the girl delights to mani- fest her superiority, and the vim dictiveness he generates becomes alarming, eliminating in the reso- lution that some day he will
 show" her. At a class picnic Ram sey is captured bag and baggage by Milla Rust, the class beauty, and endures the agonies of his first love. Ramsey's parents object to Milla and wish he'd taken up with Dora Yocum. Ramsey kisses Milla. Then Milla suddenly leaves town. She marries. Ramsey enters the state university and there is Dora Yocum again.

around there ana then they con- menced invading. We'll, what feel constrained"
 He came to the longest of all his pauses here, and the awful gravity of the audience almost suffocated him. "Well," he concluded, it don't look right to me-"
 -Four minutes" !" the chairman an- nounced, for Ramsey's pauses had worn away great deal more of this terrible interval than had his elo- quence. Opening statement for the negative: Miss D. Yocum. Four min utes."
 As Dora began to speak, Ramsey experienced a little relief, but only a ittle-abOut the same amount of relief as that felt by bridegroom when it is the brides turn to respond" not really relief at all, but merely the slight relaxation of continuing strain. The audience now looked at Ramsey no more than people look at a bridegroom, but he failed to perceive any substantial mitigation of his frightful cOnspicuousness. He had not the remotest idea of what he had said in setting forth his case for Germany, and he knew that it was his duty to listen closely to Dora, in order to be able to refute her argument when his two-minute closing speech fell due; but he was conscious of little more than his own condition. His legs had now gone wild beyond all devilry, and he had to keep shifting his weight from one to the other in order even to hope that their frenzy might escape gen. eral attention.
 He realized that Dora was speaking rapidly and confidently, and that some where in his ilI-aSsembled parts lurked

reason of treaty, or the German oath to respect the neutrality of Belgium, which of course was grossly and dis honOrably violated-all this, say, la- dies and gentlemen of the Lumen so- ciety, all this is beside the point ot morals. Since, as I have shown, all war is wrong, the case may be simpn- fled as follows: All war is morally wrong. Quod erat demonstrandum. Germany invaded Belgium. Invasion is war. Germany, therefore, did moral wrong. Upon the legal side, as began by pointing out, Germany confessed In the reichstag the violation of Jaw. Therefore, Germany was justified in the invasion neither morally nor legal ly; but was both morally and legally wrong and evil. Ladies and gentlemen of the Lumen society, I await the refutation of my opponent!"
 Her opponent appeared to be having enough trouble with his legs, without taking any added cares upon himself in the way of refutatiOns. But the marvellous Dora had calculated the length of her statement with such nicety that the chairman announced -Four minutes" almost upon the in- stant of her final syllable; and all faces turned once more to the uphold CT of the affirmative. "RefutatiOn and conclusion by the affirmative" said the chairman. "Mr. R. MilhOlland. Two minutes"
 Herewith, Ramsey coughed as long as he could cough, and when he felt that no more should be done in this way, he wiped his face-again an act of necessity-and quaveringly began:
 "Gentlemen and ladies, or ladies and gentlemen, in making the refutation of my opponent, feel that-I feel that hardly anything more ought to be said"
 He paused, looked helplessly at his uncomfortable legs, and resumed: q am supposed to make the reputa-the refutation of my opponent, and feel that I ought to say quite deal more. In the first place, feel that the inva- SlOu udS ldhcA pldCOs uIA ouppOoCu anyhow I got postal card that l am supposed to be here tonight. Well, in talking over this matter with cOu- pie of seniors, they told me was SUD- posed to claim this invasion was mOr'ly and legally all right. We'll" Here, by some chance, the recollection of word of Dora's flickered into his cha otic mind, and he had a brighter mo- ment. My opponent said she proved all war Is wrOng-or something like that, anyhow. She said she proved it was wrong to fight, no matter what. We'll, If she wasn't a girl, anybody that wanted to get her to fight could prob'ly do it." He did not add that he would be the person to make the ex- pertinent eff Dora weren't a girD, nor did the thought enter his mind until an hour or so later. "Well," he added, q suppose there is little more to be said"

 There is one fact women should con- sider and thatis this. Women suffer from irregularities and various forms of weak ness. They try this and that doctor, as we'll as different medicines. Finally they take Lydia B. Pinkham's Compound, and Mrs. Sherman's experiencei is simply another case showing the merit of this well-known medicine.

CHAPTER VII.-contInued.

Concluding his reading, which was oral, the volatile Mitchell made use of his voice in a manner of heathenish boisterOusness, and presently reclined upon lounge to laugh the better. His stricken comrade, meanwhile, recov- cred so far as to pace the floor. 'Tm goin' to pack up and light out for homeP he declared over and over. And even oftener he read and reread the card to make sure of the actual ity of that fatal coincidence, ID. Yo- cum, '18"
 "If could do it," he vociferated, If could stand up there and debate one O their darn ole debates in the first place-if had the gall to even try 1t, why, my gosh you don't SUD- pose I'm goin' to get up there and argue with that girl, do you?

 "No use, ole man. The frat seniors'u be on the job. They'll know whether you're sick or not, and they'll have you there, right on the spot to the minuteI"
 The prediction was accurate. The too fatherly frat seniors" did all that Fred said they would, and more. For the honor of the frat" they coached the desperate Ramsey in the technic of Lumen debate, told him many more things to say than could be said in six minutes, and produced him, de- spairing, ghastly and bedewed, in the large hall of the Lumen society at eight o'clock on Friday evening.
 Four other "twelve-minute debates" preceded his and the sound of these, in Ramsey's ears, was the sound of Gabriel practising on his horn in the early morning of Judgment day. The members of the society sat, three rows deep, along the walls of the room, leaving a clear oblong of green car pet in the center, where were two small desks, twenty feet apart, the rostrums of the debaters. Upon a platform at the head of the room sat dreadful seniors, the officers of the society, and, upon benches near the platform, the debaters of the evening were aligned. One of the fraternal seniors sat with sweltering Ramsey; and the latter, as his time relentlessly came nearer, made a last miserable sQuirm.

a familiar bit of him that objected to her even more than usual; but she had used half of her time, at least, before he was able to gather any coherent meaning from what she was saying. Even then he caught only fragment, here and there, and for the rest-so far as Ramsey was cOncerned-she might as well have been reciting the Swedish alphabet.
 In spite of the rather startling fee bleness of her opponents statement, Dora went at her task as earnestly as if it were to confute some monster of casuistry. 'Thus, having demOnstrat- ed that all war Is wrong," she said, ap- preaching her conclusion, "it is scarce ly necessary to point out that what ever the actual circumstances of the invasion, and whatever the status of the case in international law, or by
