Has 4 Grudge Against Asparagus
COOkHs

My favorite dish is asparagus and
only hope that some recipe can be
found by which it can be properly
cooked-which will be something that
no hotel in America has yet done.
Whatever happens, beseech the cook
to stem it thoroughly and give the fruit
to the customer without leaving tho
best part in the kitchen. as is generally
the case. My idea would be to tie each
piece separately at the ends and serve
1t this way. 80 nothing will be lost.
Stand fresh asparagus upright in
water--the tips well above the surface
Cover the receptacle and steam thor
oughly. Better still, II you have a
steamer, keep the asparagus entirely
above the water until rendered done by
the steaming process.

ENGLAND HAS COX.
EY'S ARMY AS JOB
LESS GO TOLONDON

LONDON-Not since the hard
times of nearly 80 years ago when
Coxey's army of unemployed march
ed upon Washington from all over
our middle west, has any great cap
itai of a civilized nation seen any
thing like London has been exper-
iencing-an invasion from Scotland
and northern England of the unem-
ployed.
Several thousands have put in an
appearance, braving the hardships of
tramp over rainsoaked fields, fac
ing cold, hunger, lack of shelter, and
probability of arrest as vagrants.
Some walked 500 miles coming
from North Scotland. Many are
married men who left their wives
and children behind. Their object
was to focus attention upon their
lot and to force an early meeting
of Parliament to deal with the un-
employment problem.
!, There are about 100000 people
out of work in Great Britain. The
country gives many of the workless
an unemployment dole. Although it
runs into millions Of dollars per year
the dole in many cases hardly keeps
body and soul together
In the last meetings of Parliament
after Bonar Law became prime min,
lister, the big labor representation in
the House of Commons insisted that
the legislature should not adjourn
until something more had been done.
for the workless Nevertheless Parlia-
ment was prorogued until Feb. Is.
1t was then the march upon London
nnpIHaH Mov1,
munists are back of the thing. But
the regular trades Union movement
is also interested and on a recent
Sunday decreed that the day should
be known as National unemployed
Sunday" Over 1900 meetings of pro-
test were held all over the United
Kingdom.
The most interesting and most cru
cial meeting was held in London in
famous Trafalgar Square. The spea-
kers addressed the crowds from the
Nelson monument. Things were done
there without police interference, that
would have led to wholesale arrests
in American cities.
Many Communist Organizations
participated and brought their red
flags along. Before George Lans-bury
a labor member of Parliament ad-
dressed the meeting, the crowd sang
"The Red Flag" Lansbury sang too.
The meeting passed resolution
denouncing the parliamentary holi
day as manifestation of indiffef-
ence to the chronic suffering Of the
thousands of men, women and chill
dren affected by Unemployment.
They demanded that the govern
ment treat the situation as national
emergency and either take steps to
secure employment or else provide
for them proper standard Of main
tenance.

5OO,O 1000 GERMANS
NEAR STARVATION
High Cost Of Living Blamed by So
cialist-Conditions Said to be as
Bad AS During War. -.

Berlin, Feb. 22-There are almost
a half million people in Berlin alone
who are on the verge of starvation
as the result of the sudden rise in
the value of the German mark and
the failure of prices in Germany to
drop. Such was the substance OF a
statement made in the Reichstag by
Deputy Moses, a Socialist.
Conditions this WINTER he said.
"have gradually grown to be as D;I
the war during the blockade in 1916
against Germany now. There is plen-
ty of food, but it is too expensive.
The government must take immediate
action to prevent hunger among the
working people, while the profiteers
who are responsible for the high pri-
ces, indulge in excessive eating and
drinking.
1t is reported in several newspa-
pers that unemployment las more
than doubled in the last two weeks.
GAS the result of the govern
ment's financial adventure, which has
sent the mark up thousands of points
in few days, the prices of German
industrial products have risen above
those in the world market" says a
writer in the organ of the Christian
Labor Unions. "That means inability
to export to foreign countries and
consequent unemployment, to say
nothing of the direct effects Of The
French coal blockade. This feature
the Government should have consld-
cred before launching it's campaign
to stabilize the paper mark"
Innumerable other severe criticisms
of the Government are being made
throughout Germany, the newspapers
pointing out tina tit is impossible for
a workman to live decently on the
present wages with. prices higher
than before the war, even when fig
ured in gold marks. The most simple
suit of clothes now costs 100000
marks, or three times the monthly
wages of skilled laborer.

counterfeited internal revenue stamps
The overt act charged against the
group arrested yesterday was that
Benny Sorentino, on December 9th,
gave to Gabriel de Fiore, several
counterfeit bank notes. Sorentino,
it was stated is out on bail, on a
charge of raising checks, made
against him in New Jersey. Palma
said he was on parole on a murder
charge.
Sorentino, Palma said, was agent
for John di Rosa, who kept whole
sale distributing place in his coffee
house. in Broome street, near police
headquarters.
"The way we broke the counter
feiters' defense,I Palma said, twas
by the discovery that Sorentino was
to deliver $4,000 to George Jackson
and Salvatore D'Angelo Of Pittsburg
and Michael Trantier and John Ga
dana in a house in Brooklyn. Our
agents were on the spot and caught
all five. During the raid last night
in Long Island City, we arrested

SLAVE WILLS HOME
TO SON OF FORMER
MASTER
Leaves His All to Millionaire Son of
His "Old Marster."

w. w. Fuller, New York million
are and former general counsel of
the American Tobacco Company, is
the sole heir named in the will of
William James McAllister, 94-year-
old negro, and one time servant of
the Fuller family, who died in Will
mlngton Saturday from the effects
LOT burns received when he fell into
fire place at his home. The prirci-
pal item of the estate is McAllister's
humble cottage of Franklin Street.
In the days of slavery, McAllis-
ter's wife belonged to Mr.. Fuller's
father, the late Judge Thomas C.
Fuller, and he was also a servant in
the household for many years dur
ing and after the civil war. The
attachment formed then has existed
ever since, and the aged negro was
always the first person in Fayette-
vile whom Mr.. Fuller went to see
vine. he visited his native city every
Su ~. .nr.
The will, which furnishes a strik-
ing proof of the bond which linked
the two races Of the old South,
reads as follows:
Il, william James McAllister, do
make this my last will and testament
Il give, devise, bequeath my en-
tire estate, real, persnoooooshrdluh
tire estate, real person and mixed to
my friend William w. Fuller of New
York.

have no children and my wife is
dead, and Willie Fuller has always
helped me when l needed it and has
been my nearest and best friend. Nv
wife, now deceased, belonged to his
father and mother, it was my pleas
-ure to be near the family during
and after hte war and the intimacy
that sprang up then between me
and Mr.. Willie, then a small boy,
has been continued through life,
when l have been in trouble and
needed either help or advice, l knew
where to turn, and Mr. Willie never
failed me.
He may not ever need my little
home, l pray not but he will know
better what to do with it than /.
and In this | want to show nv an
probation for what he has done for
me.
II nominate and appoint him the
said W. w. Fuller, as executor of
this my last will and testament"

Bakersville, N. C. Feb. 24.-Fonz
Buchanan was today lodged in the
Mitchell county Jail where his
brother Grady Buchanan has been
held for thep asst two weeks and
both are charged with being impli-
Gated in the alleged killing and ere
mating of the body of B. L. Hart
sell, wealthy New York club man
who disappeared in the Pigeon Roost
section near the Tennessee line in
March 1921.
Greene Buchanan father of the
Buchanan boys, is reported in hid
ing in the section near the Tennes-
see line and the sheriff and deputies
OF this county are seeking to locate
him. Several days ago Lynn Buch-
anan, brother of Green Buchanan,
who is not involved in the case,
was in Bakersville, and is reported
to have made the statement, after
tonz was brought back to Mitchell,
from Jonesboro, Tenn. where he was
arrested and held in Jail until today,
that Green Buchanan woul dcome in
and surrender.
Big Joe" Buchanan for whom
warrant also has been issued bear
ing the same charges as those made
against the other Buchanans, is
said to be in the Pigeon Roost sec
tlon and deputy sheriffs are max
ing efforts to locate him. On ac-
count of the section being so noun
famous, locating him is a difficult
task. "Bill' Rainwater, the fifth
member of the alleged gang that
assassinated the club man while he
was hiking from Bedford, N. Y. to
Jasper, Ga. is said to be in the
west and officers have little hope of
locating him.
The warrants for the five men
were sworn out before Magistrate
J. B. Cragmiles of this city, by M.
V. Lewis, a citizen of the Pigeon
Roost section, who said there has
been unearthed new evidence. This
they decline to give.
The same five men were arrested
in December 1921, charged with
numbering. Hartsell, robbing him,
and first burying the body, then
excavating it and destroying it by
burning. At preliminary hearings
held before Magistrate Craigmiles,
however, no evidence was found suf-
hclent to warrant holding them fur
ther. The wife of a jailer at john
son City at that time testified that
she heard Rainwater, while in Jail,
remark that he would go to the ell
ectric chair but others would go with
him.
Extensive Investigations have
been made of the Hartsell disap
pearance, all without definite result.
Rainwater and the Buchanan bows
are alleged by authorities to bear
bad regulations, They appear for
time on one SIDE of the state line,
then on the other.

ROMANCE OF KING
TUT is REVEALED
BY TEACHER
Woven in Marriage Scarab is Love
Story of Pharoah of Egypt
Says DIR. Lutz
FATHER MARRIED PLEBE

San Francisco dispatch of the 21st
The tangled skein of the thread OF
romance that ran through the back
ground of the life of Tutankhamer
buried these thirty centuries in his
tomb in the Valley of the Kings
Egypt, were unfolded here today by
H. F. Lutz Psychologist of the Uni,
versity of California.
DR.. Lutz produced the marriage
scarab of Amenhotep and Til, which
rests on a shelf in a case in the An
thropological museum of the affiliat-
ed college, a branch of the univer-
sity, which he claims is the only
amenhotep scarab in America.
"Woven in its herioglyphics is the
story Of great love of Pharoah of
Egypt" said DIR. Lutz. "Amenhotep
was the father of Tutunkhamen and
to understand Tutankhamen one must
know the story of his father King
Amenhotep and his love for Til whom
he made Queen of Egypt.
"Iii was not the mother of Tutank-
hamen. Amenhotep called the magnifi
cent had harem like the kings be-
fore him, and Tutankhamen was the
son of one of his inferior wives. For
Til was his first wife, his queen, al
though she was commoner, the dau-
ghter of captain who probably led
mercenary troops.
Tutankhamen however, married the
third daughter of the son of Amen
hotep and Til, His life lines were
thereby doubly entwined with the
fortunes of the king, his father, who
dared to marry commoner. Perhaps
it makes the relationship a little
clearer to say that Tutankhamen mar
ried the daughter of his half broth
er. This half brother, Amenhotep the
fourth, more often called Akhenaton
thus became the father-in-law.
"Those who cannot easily visualize
family trees may get lost in this
Egyptian genealogical forest where
it was the custom for sister and
brother to wed, but no one who has
ever glowed to romance will find it
difficult to follow the story Of Amen
hotep and Til.
"Amenhotep waited until he be-
came king and then married Til and
made her his first wife and n one
could undo the marriage. At the
time of the marriage Iii vs5ss a lady
in waiting at the court.
The fruit of this union according
to DR.. Lutz, Akhenaton the father Of
Tutankhamen's wife was a half mad
genius known as hereto king, who
proclaimed one God instead of many.
He had seven daughters and the
third daughter became the wife of
Tutankhamen and he succeeded to
the throne through her.
'Tutankhamen accepted the relig
ious doctrine of one God while he was
Under tie influence of Alienation"
said Dr.. Lutz, ''but later broke away
from it.
''It was the custom of that period
TO have marriage scarabs made and
the one now at the University of
California is one of the few out of
all those that announced the wedding
of this king to his love Til. He did
not attempt to- hide her identity He
is too magnificent for that. Perhaps
he was proud of the fact that he had
dared to smash convention. So he in
scribed on the scarab the name of
her father and mother and these
names proclaimed the fact that she
is a cOmmoner."
