Illinois HorticuIturist "Seen
Four Days After Dis
appearance"
by the Associated Press.

by the Ass1cia led Press
AURORA, Ills. May "a report
that Warren John Lincoln, Aurora
horticulturist and attorney, was seen
alive In Hutchinson, Kans.. four days
after he vanished from his cottage.
two miles from Aurora, leaving be-
hind evidences indicating murder,
was received today By Chief Of Police
Frank Michels of Aurora.
The report, while not conclusive.
lent support to a growing theory of
the police that financial difficulties
and domestic troubles combined had
given the supposed victim motive
for disappearing.
1t came in a telegram from C. b.
Augustin. cattle raiser of Hutchin-
son, who wired Chief Michels that
he had seen a man answering Lin
coins description in that town Tues
day.
Chief Michels sent telegram to
the chief Of police of Hutchinson to
verify the report Meanwhile the
n;s:ion-w wide search for Mrs. Lima
Shoup Lincoln, the estranged and
missing wife of Lincoln, and her
brother, Byron Shoup, was under way.
Shoup was said to have been a bitter
enemy of Lincoln.

NEW ORLEANS, La, July T.
Thirty-f1ve hundred members of the
Industrial Workers of the World,
"massed cheek by jowl and shoulder
to shoulder, are gathering in New
Orleans, watching the trek of the
negro labor to the north, east and
west, while they wait confidently
the time when they shall step for
ward and fill the vacancies in the
cotton and sugar fields and lumber
industries created by the exodus of
the blacks" according to statement
in a full-page advertisement which
appeared today in a local newspaper
The advertisement, printed in dis
play type, stated that 1t was "the first
of a series of frank talks on the gen.
group of leading Louisiana institu-
tions." It's title was peace and Pros
perity or Pillage and Perdition."
Kept on the Qui vive by the ex-
hortations of their red leaders," read
the text. they are preparing to treat
the south and its resources as they
treated the forests of Washington and
the wheat fields of Nebraska and
Kansas.
I'm the exodus Of the negro laborer
from the south. let us remember we
can stand anything but the substitutes
offered by the wobblies.

Prohibition and law enforcement,
near east matters and the uplift of
the movies were subjects discussed at
today's session of the social service
conference Of the Methodist Episcopal
Church South.
Presenting the cause of the Lord s
Day Alliance, Rev. ]. Cochrane Hunt
Of Nashville, director of that move

day amusementS.
E. F. Lightfoot, superintendent of
the Anti-Saloon League of South
Carolina, outlined what he considered
difficulties in enforcing prohibition
law. He charged the man of means
was the worst offender, and praised
the average workingman.
The Ku Klux klan was cited as one

Who are his ancestors and where

separated the reds from all other in
dependent political movements and
placed them in a class by themselves.
They are in the open now, their
affiliations with the Russian soviet
and the third internationale, is dis
closed and their destructive aims are
we'll understood.
The common sense Of the American
people will enable them to choose be-
tween American doctrines and an
archical teachings of the reds.
1t will be the good sense of the
whole American people against the
criminal and crazy teachings of the
reds The reds will stand alone and.
Of course, must fall. 1t will be a
case of their hands against every
man and the mass Of the American
people against them.
Effect Speculated On.
. What effect this Chicago affair may
have upon the election in Minnesota
next week is being speculated upon
by politicians here. Whether 1t will
aid the farmer-labor campaign or In
jure it is the question. Some think
that the prompt refusal Of the farm
er-laborites to join with the red plot
ters, and their separation from the
movement, may encourage confidence
in the farmer-labor party and dissi-
pate any fears that might exist of it
becoming too radical Others contend
that their attempted coordination of
all independent political units may
frighten voters who might otherwise
be attracted to their reform and lib
eral policies and be taken as a warn
ing to keep away from them.
To the mass of Americans the fiasco
at Chicago will probably be taken as
a sign that field does not exist for
a dangerous spread of extreme radi-
cal doctrines in the United States, and
important political parties will d.
vide along old lines.

trader In that country. He hasn't
any pride" admitted August, "and he
is not at all concerned whether you
like him or not. The only thing he
displays any interest in Is the fact
that he has twenty-three pairs of
ribs. which are supposed to be great
er than those possessed by any other
mammal. To talk about these ribs
is the only qualification he possesses
for entertainment"
ITO think" muttered the Disguised
lady. that our nice. we'll balanced
corps of animals should receive such
a jolt by this things presence. I'll
never get over it,"
August says these two dignitaries
have the right idea. They possess
more dignity than anybody out here.
They walk around on tiptoes, with
heads high and bodies erect. They
do not indulge in pranks or tricks,
hut always conduct themselves with
utmost thought and care. Mr.. Ante
lope is the more beautiful of the

older than his three-year-old wife.
He has long. wavy antlers and a

B. Wheeler has announced that the
league regards the Alabama soIon as
the sole hope Of the vets in the demo-

the south in the possibility of plac-

solid support from that section, but
the south is the cradle of 1atter-day
