never before enjoyed by our people,
President Harrison in his 1890 re-
port pointed to the national wealth
as being $62,61O,000,00O, an in.
crease over the 1860 figure of $16,-

railroad growth in the Nation, the
city population increase and the
rise in investments.
Hand-written on blue lined tablet

there is no reason why in many
lines of production we should not
surpass all other nations as we have
already done in some. There are
no near frontiers to our possible
development. Retrogression would
be a crime" he declared.

Karumai was still under sentence
of death, but there was no one to
speak either for or against him.
That was in 1884 When it be-
came evident that the Karumai
case was far from settlement,
prison officials released the con-
vict from the death row and put
him to work in the kitchen.
Karumai has been there ever
since. Between meals, he plays
silent, brilliant checkers with the
other inmates. George H. Carman,
the prison clerk, who discovered
Karumais peculiar status as
forgotten man." said he had be-
come the checker champion of the
penitentiary.

he loses, he scowls," Carman said.
HE never says anything"
Meanwhile, Karumai went on

.Captiyates Seattle
BY Lenard Clayton

Just in the last few years, Sc
attic Music lovers have been priv
LEGGED to see and hear, in person,
their favorite music idols and
stars. Such famous celebrities as
Cab Galloway, Duke Ellington,
Earl Father" Hines, Les Hite,
and Ella Fitzgerald have thrilled
Seattle audiences more than once
but there's one music Great" who
hadn't been here before and that
was the one and only Thomas
Fats" Waller.
Gerald Wells, Pres. of the Local
493, and popular orchestra leader,
got the bright idea to have Fats"
Waller and his band to play in Sc
attic and Northwest. After much
String pulling" he was brought
here to the pleasure of all those
orchestra fans. The dance at the
Senator Ballroom, sponsored BY
Wells, we can all say was a sue
cess. An added feature, being the
beauty contest. sponsored by the
Spook's club added to the enioy-
ment.
1t so happened that the dance
came on the fourteenth of July.
the day after the thirteenth; this
of course, is incidental and does
MT mean anything. There were 13
men in the band, Is girls in the
beauty contest, until one girl hap
pened to count off" and realizing
her plight, she demurred. Then

said he weighed 318 pounds, and
