Joe Jenkins Goes
To Trial on Charge \
OF Killing OldNegro

SYLVANIA, Ca, Feb. "a Joe
Jenkins, young man, went on trial
here this afternoon at 8 o'clock
charged with the murder Of "Coz"
Jones an aged negro, killed near
here last December. 1t is stated that
Jenkins, who was apprehended sev+
eral weeks later in Colorado and
brought back to- stand trial, will
plead self defense. IL
The crime with which jenkins ia
charged invoked the indignation OF
both races around Sylvania.. The
aged negro, we'll known throughout
the countryside, was killed when he
refused to aid in getting Jenkins car
ont of the mud, according to eye
witnesses. t. - AZ
Jenkins, however, claims that tbs
negro attempted to cut him with a
knife. He SAYS it was the negro's
knife which he used to cut Jones'
head from his body, after shooting
him. ~
The trial is attracting considerable
attention in SylVania, being one OF
few cases in which white man was
brought back to stand trial for the
staying of a negro in this vicinity.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Feb. 22.-For
the first tiAe in history, Methodist
and Baptist educators, representing
colleges and universities in virtual
ly every southern state will meet in
joint conference to work out a pro-
gram of cooperation in interest of
education, if proposals now before
separate conferences here of the
southern Baptist educational asso-
citation and the educational associa-
ton of. the Methodist Episcopal
church south are carried out.
The proposals were the outstand.
ing subjects of discussion at Wed
nesday's session and a committee to
confer with the Methodists was ap-
pointed by the Baptists."
The object of the Joint conference,
educational leaders of both .denomi-
nations said, was to form an assoc
citation composing both denomina-
tons to work for common cause"
in education. 1t was said that at Ii
later date an Invitation will be ex-
tended to the Presbyterians to join
in the proposed association.
DIR. John F.. White, president Of
Anderson college, Anderson, s. c.,
chairman of the Baptist committee,

bodies will represent three-fourths

Bought Own Coffin,
But Brother-in-Law
And Sister Die First

MIDTOWN, Ga, Feb. 21.-Mrs.
Reba Corbitt, nee Bostick, widow OF
Mr.. Henry Corbitt, of Atkinson
county, died Sunday night as the
result of burns sustained some
three weeks ago while in the field
watching some work of clearing up
going on.
Mrs. Corbitt died at her home in
the. lower part of Atkinson county
and was buried at Live Oak Meth
odist church Monday afternoon, the
funeral services being conducted by
Rev. w. Harvey Wages, of Mill.
town. She was about IS years of
age. She was a member of the
Baptist church.
Mrs. Corbitt never had any chill
dren, but reared three children, one
of whom is George Tucker, deputy
sheriff of Lanier county and day
marshal of Midtown, and brother OF
e. Tucker, sheriff of Lanier county.
An interesting fact concerning the
funeral was the presence of her
brother, Jesse Bostick, with whom
she lived since the death of his
wife some four years ago. When
Mr. Bostic1's wife died four years
ago. he was very feeble, and being
SO years old he thought his time to
die was near, so he went to Villa
coochee and purchased his shroud
coffin, and cement vault. He had
the vault placed in the cemetery at
Live Oak and the coffin carried to
the home of his sister, Mrs. Henry
Corbitt. He did not die, so he had
a cover placed over his grave and
the box in the vault. The lid to the
box is in Mrs. Corbitt's home, and
since that time both Henry Corbitt
and his wife have died and each
were placed on this lid, put there
for Mr.. Bostick who still lives at
the ripe old age of 81, and who was
heard to say at the funeral Mon
day, while looking into his vault,
"Well, expected to be there some
time ago, but am still here. But
thank God, it won't be as long as
it has been before will be put i'll
there"

GRAIN
BY GEORGE SCHNACKEL
(Leased Wire Service to The Journal. J
(Copyri ght, 1921

CHICAGO, Feb. 22.-All of the do
nestle grain exchanges were closed
today. Liverpool opened Is pence
lower and the trend of prices at
Winnipeg was lower, contrary to ex-
pectations. 1t was generally believ-
ed on the Chicago Board of Trade
that there would be a sharp bulge
in Winnipeg today due to buying
power furnished from this side Of
the line and an opening bulge in
Chicago would result tomorrow, Civ
ing eastern longs another oppor-
tunity to trim their lines.
There is little change in the un-
DERIVING situation. The weight of
11O,000,000 bushels of wheat in visi-
BILE supply points of North America
must be moved before ay sustained
bulge can be expected. At present
prices, foreign buyers remain un-
interested and the only export bust
ness being done is when exporters
force sale by concessionary
prices. Liverpool market failed to
follow the bulges in North America
and their depresSions were reported
due to pressure of cheaper Canadian
and Areentine wheat. There was
talk of increased milling demand for
wheat and this should be of some
benefit. Mills say, however, that
they are securing business, the in
creased operation being due to the
arrival of shipping directions on old
orders.
The bulls in corn have. maintain
ed prices at higher levels this week.
The speculative buying power is of
such volume that it takes consider
able pressure to depress values.
However. bulls seem content to do
little forcing at the moment because
of the action of wheat. Cash in
terests are pessimistic in their mar
ket opinions. They point out the
dullness in the cash demand for corn
and accommodating stocks. Country
is selling little corn to arrive but
consigning more freely.
There was hedging pressure felt
in oats the past few days and this
nipped the bull movement in the
bud. Shipping demand was light.
Higher hogs and improved cash
demand are having bullish effect
on provisions. g.

BY THEODORE TILLER

WASHINGTON, Feb. Gloon

successful last night in having the

ris bill to let small state banks en-
ter the Federal Reserve System for
a provision of the Capper rural
credits bill. The bill of Senator
Harris has passed the senate, and
early passage by the house is an
tjcipated because of the efforts in
the house to secure favorable con-
sideration of the Capper bill before
adjournment next week.
The Brand-Harris provision is:
No applying bank shall be ad-
mitted to membership in a Federal
Reserve Bank unless Ia it possesses
a paid-up, unimpaired capital suffi-
Gent to entitle it to become a ma
tional banking association in the
place where it is situated under the
provisions of the national bank act,
or (b) it possesses a paid-up, unim-
paired capital Of at least 60 per.
centum of the amount sufficient to
entitle it to become a national
banking association in the place
where it is situated under the pro-
visions of the national bank act
and, under penalty of loss of mem.
bership complies with rules and
regulations which the Federal Re
serve Board shall prescribe fixing
the time within which and the
method by which the unimpaired
capital of such bank shall be in
creased out of net income to equal
the capital which would have been
required if such bank had been ad.
nlitted to membership under the
provisions of subdivision (a) OF
this paragraph: Provided, that every
such rule or regulation shall require
