LOCOMOTIVE JIM. i Soutli Carolinian Who Drove Engine Overseas Visits in Washington. i Senator Dial and Representative Nichols have been called on at their offices in Washington lately by a con-, stituent, James F. Martin, who had some rather unusual experiences over seas, after having been severely gassed near Luneville while serving with the One Hundred and Seventeenth engineers of the Rainbow division. Mr. Martin on leaving the hospital was physically disqualified for further duty with his regiment but having been a locomotive engineer on the Southern railway at home was assigned as engineer to the "American Special" when that famous train between Chaumont and Tours was established. It was while on this assignment, in the latter part of September or early in October, 1918, that he performed the stunt which brought him considerable attention at that time. An unusually large party of important officers of civilian dignitaries,1 filling 13 coaches, was making the rounds of the service of supply drawnby Jim Martin's big American locomotive No. 5897, a Schenectady built, passenger speedster of the type known in the service as "Mikes.''' Martin picked up the train at St. 1 Pierre des Corps and all went well until just before he reached Vierzon, when his throttle somehow became disconnected. There was neither time nor opportunity for making a repair and Martin somehow handled the big i engine with its long train from Vier- i son to Nevers, about 150 kilometers, with throttle wide open controlling 1 the train entirely by manipulating his ] airbrakes and his reverse lever. It 1 was necessary, on reaching the end of i the run to "kill" the locomotive, by ! exhausting the steam, before it could i t>e uncoupled and run into a siding 1 Martin rtieanwhile kept his ownji eounsel and it was not until they reached Nevers that his distinguished passengers knew under what circumstances they had been whirled across France. Fireman Monroe of Greenville was Martin's "buddy" on the trip. o CITATION. The State of South Carolina, Conn ty of Dillon, by Joe Cabell Davis. I Probate Judge: Whereas, A. H.

Tuskee, Ala.?Twenty young men and women, students in Southern State universities, have just met at Tsukegee Institute, in conjunction with the Southern University Commission on the Race Question, to consider racial problems as affecting both whites and blacks. The members of the Commission officially represent the faculties of1 their various institutions. The stu-1 dents are present or former holders J ot Stokes Fellowships in Iheir uni-j versities, each of which was establish, ed for research work by Southern college ?ie11 and women into Negro life in their own states. The results of , these studies are published by the universities, which are thus accumulating a broad basis of facts for the intelligent leadership of the future in racial adjustments. The class of students who seek these fellowships accentuate the value of the work the universities are doing for the welfare of the whole South. These young people from many states met for the first time at Tuskegee in January to compare notes, to talk with the university profes-j sors whose work has pioneered their, own, and t0 hear some of the leading ( Negroes of the South discuss the need of their people. Dr. Moton's address gave the Negro point of view in a manner which moved his hearers of both races. A young white woman, Stokes Fellow at a leading university, spoke of the influence of women, both white and colored, in promoting a better understanding between the races; and Mrs. Booker T. Washington, in endorsing her address, cited as a case in point. the splendid work or f ne wnue worn-1 en of Georgia through their State Federation of Women's Clubs, in arousing and unifying public opinion In that state against lawlessness and mob violence.

Talks of Hopes of Republicans. < ( Kansas City, March 1?Signal poll- 1 tical change in the South and the breaking up of the solid Democratic 1 control in Texas, Louisiana and other Southern states are visible, United States Senator Warren G. Harding of Ohio, candidate for the Republican nomination for president, declared in an address here tonight. 1 "It is gratifying," he said, "to feel ' a full fellowship in a great political , party which has left such an impress ' of helpfulness that all of the United States are turning to the Republican for the restoration hoped for in ever; American heart. So striking is fh truth that there is a confident belie, that the sectional lines which hereto-,' fore have marked the limits of Repub- j lican majority are certain to be 1 broken and the solid South, Democra- ' tic for two generations, henceforth ' will be no more than a political memory. "Virginia, the Carolinas, Georgia and Louisiana are encouraging Re- 1 publican hopes. Texas, if not promising is demanding the reorganization ( of the Democratic party, with restor- * ed Jeffersonianism, and while it is at it, it may go the whole route to redemption and turn to Republicanism for the realization of its higher aspirations." Touching the Mexican situation Senator Harding said: "Why meddle and mess up things in Europe, 4,000 miles away, when there is plenty to attract our attention on our own borders? Mexic0 affronts us; kidnaps our citizens and murders those whom we do not ransom. I would rather make Mexico safe and set it aglow with the light of new world righteousness than menace the health of the republic in the old world contagion. losis Test i UR FAMILY AND DREADFUL DISI COWS TESTED I M.

Fashion ON, - - - AFRICAN "FLU" PRESCRIPTION. The epidemic of influenza extended even to Africa, but there the prescription for it differed considerably from that used in the United States, T. B. Brinton, missionary at Kapanga, Congo Belgo, declares. Witch doctors attempted t0 cure the people of their malady by scattering an ancient remedy through the villages. This remedy, which is carried in a big jar kept carefully closed, consists of the manure of certain animals, with the claws of other animals, and the bark of certain trees, all miAed together with water. The people were told to wash their bodies n this water to make them immune from any attack of the disease. "In the t.tiddle of the night the v. itch docior fell ill of influenza in a i ""tain \il.age," Mr. Briton relates. He was not able to get up in the : mU ? iVian [11U1 lllllft. X IXC icauici ui uug LUVU called the people together, and began to preach to them. He asked who was the stronger, this witch doctor or God." " 'God,' said the people. 'The witch doctor is sick."
