AFRICA BIRTHPLACE OF MAN
SAYS AFRICAN SCIENTIST

New York.-Africa is given as the
scene where mankind originated, in a
report by Alonzo w. Pond, director OF
the Logan African Expedition of Be
lott College, Of which a resume is pub
lished in the New York Times and
relayed by the National Association
for the Advancement Of Colored Peo-
pie.
The expedition, according to Mr..
Pond, found the skeleton Of human
child dating back to 10000 B. c., in
Algeria, Northern Africa, and also re-
mains of long extinct animals such as
a giant OK measuring 81 inches be-
tween the tips of the horns. Mr.. Pond
believes that prehistoric man pop

smooth bird simply walked around
among the colored people in his ward
and advised them to vote the Demo
cratic ticket that Judge Dever, the
Democrat would treat them much bet
ter than Hon. Arthur c. Lueder, the
Republican.
It will be further recalled that on the
night that the mayor was inducted
into Office that Mr. Daniel M. Jackson
sat right by the side of Mayor Dever
on the platform; that many other big
co1ored Demo-Republicans were in
evidence and they completely took
charge Of Mayor Dever and his Hon.
the mayor let the world know that
Mr.. Oscar DePriest and a nameless
little dark faced colored preacher
would control or boss over al the jobs
which would fall into the laps of col
ored people, from the hands Of Mayor
Dever, except the second and third
wards would be controlled absolutely
by Hons. Louis B. Anderson and
Robert r. Jackson; that Mr.. Daniel M.
Jackson would be able to take or hook
his out in another direction.
For some years prior to that time
Mayor Dever had quite few friends
among the colored people residing in
all parts Of this city and county who
always voted for him for alderman Of
the old 18th ward and for judge OF the
Superior Court of Cook County.
But seemingly just as soon as he fell
under the blighting spell of Hon. Louis
B. Anderson, Mr.. Oscar DePriest and
the nameless little dark faced political
jumping jack, Mayor Dever turned his
back on his old time colored friends
and very few Of them were ever per
mitted to enter his inner rooms at any
time, and there were no positions nor
favors for them and if they desired to
secure their dog from the pound they
were forced to secure an o. K. from
the newly found colored friends Of
Mayor Dever.

Now that the smoke Of the recent
hard fought political battle for mayor
Of this great city has all cleared away
and the big white Republican and
Democratic politicians after branding
each other as grand rascals, thieves,
bold faced liars and ex-jail birds, have
all curled down again in the same big
Democratic and Republican political
he'd until the next election, at which
time they will spring forth to boss the
people or the voters, cussing them
I'D one side and down the other, telling
them where to get off at.
II may not be out Of place IN our
most humble way to point out to Hon.
William E. Dever, some Of the things
which greatly assisted to contribute to
his inglorious defeat in his gallant race
for reelection as mayor OF Chicago
as far as the vast majority OF the
colored people were concerned.
It viii be recalled that prior to that
election that Mr.. Oscar DePriest, who
was the head and front Of the move
ment. to induce or force the colored
people to desert the Republican party
and Hon. Arthur c. Lueder who has
easily proven himself to be the best
and the most popular postmaster that
Chicago has ever had, and march on to
victory under the banner Of Democ-
racv Mr.. DePriest was assisted in his
unl;ft work at that time by Hon. Louis
p Anderson, one loud-mouthed, long

The broad ax. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1895-19??, 1927-05-07

1t was true that the Hon. Louis B.
Anderson was loaded down with all
kinds of permits and he freely secured
many Of them for some Of the worst
and dead tough persons residing in
the notorious second ward
In some of the joints no ones life
is worth ten cents if they permitted
themselves to enter the place and
flashed up large roll of money.
No one can seriously contend that
Mayor Dever was conferring any high
honors on the Hon. Louis B. Ander-
son and on the colored race in Chi
cago by permitting him to issue per-
mits to both white and colored people
to conduct the worst and most dis
graceful dives existing anywhere in the
city Of Chicago.
Notwithstanding the fact that Mayor
Dever made it possible for the Hon.
Louis B. Anderson to make many
thousands Of dollars per year by secur-
ing firm or deadly grip on the second
ward in the way Of absolutely controll-
ing all of its patronage and so on
which made him lord and master over
its citizens and new colored king to
Be reckoned with at every bend in
the road; that the Hon. Louis B. An
derson placed all Of his shouters, re-
tainers and those belonging to the
bread and butter brigade in good pay
ing positions, and they assisted him to
build up a powerful political machine
which enabled him to cause Mayor
Dever to hot foot it out Of the sec
ond ward.
It may not be out Of place to state
right here that Mr.. Daniel M. Jack
son, Mr.. Oscar DePriest, and the other
colored politicians who set themselves
up as the bosses Of Mayor Dever all
coldly deserted Mayor Dever and left
him hanging high and dry just as soon
as Hon. William Hale Thompson en-
tered the race for Mayor Of Chicago.

Consider the Wasp.

PERHAPS the greatest cruelty in
nature was described by Prof.
Wheeler of the Lowell Institute in his
lecture on the life habits of the wasp.
The lady Sphex-wasp is lazy, it
seems. and will not feed her young
when they are born. But she takes
care Of them nevertheless. After the
mating season. she goes forth to- find
the green caterpillar of the Sphinx
moth, that fat, green. hairless thing
with horn on its head one sees I'm
sandy country BY some instinct, Mrs.
Sphex knows that caterpillars anat-
omy. and is able to puncture il with
her poisonous sting just where those
nerves center which control the
muscles of motion. She paralyzes the
caterpillar for life, without killing 1t.
Then she drags ii into a hole she has
burrowed i'm the sand, and lays her
larvae there to feed on the living
fresh meat of the caterpillar until
they are able to take care OF them
selves.
Mrs. Sphex doesn't live on caterpil
lar flesh herself. but she takes a first
peck out Of every paralyzed worm.
just as a marketing woman will
snatch a grape from a counter In pass
ing. The worm may live for months
unable to move In its underground
prison, while the little Sphex larvae
eat placidly at its flesh.

ment on his feet as workers on teie-
graph poles used when they climb
wooden poles. On further eXamina-
ton it was found that in the granite
face of the house were scars such as
might have been made by sharp
steel spur.
DIR. Schneikert then went over his
collection of newspaper clippings
again for burglaries that would indi-
cate such a technique. He found a
few worth looking into. From these
there began to emerge the shadowy
theoretical figure of a burglar who
had devised a technique Of his own;
who was used to working high in the
air: who probably got his idea from
some previous occupation.

covers a vast area The only differ
ence between the Meldwesen and
such a system of spiders webs is
that there is strength in the threads
that bind the Meldwesen scheme
strength enough to make rope
Wherewith to hang man.
The Meldwesen was weaving SUCH
a strand now with new material that
had been given it. 1t was now piecing
together from it's card catalogue the
record Of an individual, which was
checking up nicely with the theories
of what few findings they had.

Johann Gutkind was nominated by

His whereabouts were unknown; for

subject to arrest and punishment for
this omission, irrespective of the
