Look With Suspicion
On Too-Good Youth

Poor little good boy. Nobody be

be approved of. If he is tractable and
Obedient they shake their heads dolor-

he's young, ingrowing sin being a seri-

somehow. we can't help wondering II
it's quite as bad as all that. We al

Black Phosphorus

Black phosphorus, hitherto supposed
to be pure phosphorus turned black as
result of sudden cooling, is produced
by the contact Of phosphorus with
mercury on which il can react at the
moment when it passes from the liquid
to the solid state. Molten phosphorus
dissOlves mercury, giving a cOlOrless
solution. When cooled the saturated
solution remains colOrless in all low
temperatures, but if the phosphorus
sOlidifies the qualification is very
weak and the mercury leaves the so
lidified phosphorus and cOlOrs it black.
If black phosphorus is melted, the
mercury is easily redissOlved in the
surrounding phosphorus and the whole
body becomes colorless. This is the
correct explanation Of the phenom-
erOn.

TUo Counties Honored

Virginia is known as the mother of
Presidents because eight Presidents Of
the United States were born within
her borders, says the Pathfinder Mag
azine Washington. Jefferson, Madi-
son, Monroe, William II. Harrison, Ty>
Ter, Taylor and Wilson first saw the
light of the day in the Old Dominion.
Two counties had the honor of giving
birth to four of these distinguished
men. Washington and Monroe were
born in WeStmoreland and Harrison
and Tyler, horn in the same county.
1t is an interesting fact that Harrison
and Tyler. born in the same county
were elected President and vice-presi-
dent, respectively. ut the same time.
SO it happened that when Harrison
died a month after taking oath Of
office he was succeeded by man born

Tracion1o Blamed on
Faulty Food Habits

TrachOma, that dangerous disease
which so often ends in blindness, may
be caused by inadequate diet, like
scurvey, ricketts, and similar deficiency
diseases, according to statement
from the National Committee for the
Prevention Of Blindness. While ira
choma is spread all over the world,
the highest incidence is among peO-
pie who have faulty food habits.
The apparent cOntagiOusnesS of ira
choma may be due to another eye
disease that is associated with it.
On Ellis island, where there is always
some trachoma and where hundreds
of cases of it are handled each year,
no doctor, nurse or orderly has ever
contracted the disease. Similarly in
long steerage trips from eastern Med
iterranean ports, passengers with ira
chOma never caused outbreaks Of this
disease during the voyage, although
the conditions for the transmission Of
a contagious disease were most favor
able-Hygeia Magazine.

Ski TroUel Made History

Messengers on skis provided a turn
ing point in Sweden's history i'll the
Sixteenth century. When King Gus
tav NaSa called for men TO repel the
Danish invaders, the cautious phleg-
matte men Of Darlecarlia, the ancient
Swedish province, took counsel and
were not sure whether they should
respond Bereft Of support, the king
started for the Norwegian border, but
had not been on his way long till the
DarlecarlianS decided TO throw in their
lOt with him against the foreigner and
messengers raced after him on skis
and brought him back. To that event
and those men modern Sweden owes
her renaissance. To this day an an
nual ski race is held in winter TO com
memorate this turning point in the
countrys history.-London Sphere.

Explaining Military Salute

There have been several ideas ad.
vanced as to the origin of the mill
tary salute. 1t was supposed 10 have
been the practice in Rome at the time

the palm of their hand to the front
of their caps in order to show that 1t
contained no dagger This was on &C.
count of the fact that aSSaSSinatiOnS
were 50 common in those days. 1t has
been suggested that time and custom
have modified this to the military sd
lutte. Another idea suggested was
that in the British army during Inc
American Revolution ii was custom

ment Of their presence. ON account
Of the clumsy headgear. this custom

Put Faith in Image
to Frighten Smallpox

Motoring along a country road In
India, the attention of tourists was
called to a curious-loOking object by
the roadside. 1t was roughly carved
little image, mounted on small stool,
with three legs.
The image betrayed no signs or
expert workmanship and was quite
clearly the handwOrk of some rough
village carpenter They eyes and
mouth were roughly carved, and YER
million paint brought these into prom
inence. The little creature had also
two wooden arms
Stopping the car, the tourists waited
until some villager came along the
road. and questioned him as to the
reason why this image had been left
by the roadside. He pointed out that
it had been placed a few yards over
the boundary line Of the village, and
that it had been there since the early
hours of the morning.
1t was an image of the goddess of
the village temple. so common in south
India, and represented the deity who
controls smallpox. The scourge had
broken out and had laid low number
Of people, and il was felt that unless
the goddess could be persuaded to
transfer the evil more would fall sick.
SO the little image was made and
removed outside the bounds of the
village Naturally the people in the
next village did not appreciate this
attention, and the custom IS to move
ii from village to village. Then some
times it is possible to get Moham-
medan. for small fee to destroy 1t
completely
Thus does the Indian villager deal
with the troublesome disease.

Mountain Elevator

The great lift" to carry aspiring
tourists who would eschew the com
bined joys and laDOrs of the mountain
climber to the top of the rugged Wet
terhOrn, in Switzerland, is one Of the
most interesting devices in the world.
1t goes up by two stages, each about
1000 feet high. The passenger cages
are lifted by a drum-wound rope and
guided by two pairs Of steel cables,
each about an inch and three-quarters
In diameter, and possessing a tensile
strength of $50 tons, 10 times the
maximum put upon them. The cars
are attached to these cables in such
a manner as to avert fall in case
of the breaking of one of the lifting
ropes. The cars, weighing 51a tons,
and carrying 20 passengers apiece, are
lifted vertically at a speed of about
five feet a second.

MRS. BROO KINS, PUT OFF
PULLMAN, JAILED, SHE
SEEKS $4,000 DAMAGES
Darrow to Aid Hays in Case Against
Railway and Pullman Co.
Fined $500 by Florida Judge
preston News Service)

(HreStOn News oeINlCcJ
New York City, Dec. 5l.-In an
effort to seek redress for being fore
IDLY elected from a Pullman car last
July Is by police officers at Palatka,
Fla, Mrs. Blanche S. Brookins, OF
this city, through her attorneys, Gar
field Arthur Hays and Clarence Oar
row, is suing the Pullman Company
and the Atlantic Coast Line Railway
for damages aggregating $4,000.
N.A.A.C.P. Back of Suit
The case is being handled by the
NAAC.P. Mrs. Brookins, i'll her
complaint charges that on July IL, at
Palatka, Fla, she was on a Pullman
sleeper, on which she had purchased
through accommodations from New
York to Orlando, Fla, when a con
ductor forced her to leave the train
becaues OF F1orida's Jim Crow law.
The Jim Crow law prohibits the use
BY Negroes OF railway accommoda-
tons set apart for whites within the
state, but other Pullman accommoda
tons are provided Tor Negroes. On
this train no such accommodations
had been provided, Mrs. Brookins
charges, and She was told to ride i'll
day coach
Elected, Imprisoned, Fined
Her Pullman was attached to the
Havana Special, operated by the At
lantic Coast Line. Mrs. Brookins says,
and when the train reached Jackson
vile, Fla. a conductor demanded that
she leave the Pullman. She refused
to do 50, and the following day, at
Palatka, police officers were sum
moned who forcibly elected her from
the train.
Mrs Brookins charges i'll her COM
plant that she was then imprisoned in
the county Jail at Paltaka, fined $500
and costs amounting to $l8.7 and told
by the Florida judge that he was
sorry he could not double her fine for
violating the Jim Crow law"
Passenger in Interstate Commerce
I'VE will charge that since Mrs.
Brookins was passenger in Interstate
commerce and therefore not subject
to the provisions OF the Florida Jim
Crow law" Attorney Hays stated,
the defendants violated their con
tracts as common carriers, with Mrs.
Brookins, subjecting her to insult,
modification and injury to her nervous
system and general health; that their
agents acted carelessly, negligently,
forcibly and unlawfully, and that they
caused her to be unlawfully impris-
oned. with great expense and personal
treatment" Mr.. Hays declared.
Attracting Widespread Interest
This case is designed to attract
widespread interest because OF the
many new angles and phases involved.
The fact that such able counsel as
Hays and barrow will handle it pre-
sages a new era in legal and judicial
contentious and interpretations Of the
laws governing interstate travel, and
the intent and meaning Of passenger
accommodations. Members OF the
National Association for the Advance
ment OF Colored People indicate that
this will be supreme effort to trash
out this much mooted question. Every
effort will be made to prosecute this
case to the limit.
