Robert S. Cauthen Dead
Robert E. Cauthen, one of the older
of Kershaw's citizens, passed away
suddenly Sunday afternoon about 6-30
o clock while sitting in a chair on the,
front porch of his home. Mr. Cauthen,

birthday February seventeenth last,
, had not been in the best of health for

jthree weeks ago, when kept at home,
j though not confined to bed., Sunday
(morning he spoke of going to church
but before the hour for services decided
he did not feel quite well enough
to do so. There was nothing especially
unusual, however, to indicate that
his end was so near, and his sudden
death was quite unexpected.
Funeral services; fo^ Mr. Cauthen
were held in tye I^ershaw First Baptist
church Monday afternoon by his
pastor, Rev. George E. Smith, and interment
was in the old Laurel Hill
cemetery just ;north of town immodii

knew him. He is survived by his
(widow, who before marriage was Miss
' Mary L. Vincent, one daughter, Mrs.

DePriest Vitriolic In
His Denunciation
Cleveland, 0., July 2.?Charges of
cowardice and hypocrisy were flung i
by Congressman Oscar DePries%
negro, of Chicago, last nigbt at members
of the legislatures of southern
states "which recently passed reeolut
tions censuring Mrs. Herbert Hoover
for inviting Mrs. DePriest to a White
House reception. , Congressman DePriest
was speaking before 2,000 persons
at a mass meeting of the N*^
tional Association for the Advancement
of Colored People.
"They're just a lot of cowards," ,the
Illinois congressman called the southern
legislators, "This is my country
and your country. I've beei) elected
to congress the same as any other
congressman and I'm going to have
the rights of every other congressman?n<r
more and no less?if it's in
the congressional harbor shop or at
a White House tea.
DePriest said the criticism of Mrs.
Hoover's receiving Mrs. DePriest at
the White House tea was an incident
used by southern democratic politicians,
seeking to win the solid South
back into the Democratic party,
However, he added, "all racial prejudice
is not confined to any one party
or to. any one church. They are
all tinged with it."
Turning to the subject pf the prohibition,
DePriest said, "the government
is preparing to spend millions
for enforcement of the 18th amendment.
A few millions ought to be
spent to enforce the 13th, 14th and
15th which guarantee the negro his
civil and political rights.
"I do not propose to vote to appropriate
a penny to enforce the 18th
amendment until similar sums are
voted to enforce these other amendments
now being violated all through
the South."
DePriest said that as a congressman
"he wilt pay as much attention
to the needs of his white constituents
as to those who are black.
"Only in one respect will I insist
favoring negroes, and that is in my
recommendations for appointments to
West Point and Annapolis. As long
as I am in congress, I'll appoint only
negroes to those two schools or until
some white congressman appoints
a negro.
"I want to thank the Democrats of
the South for one thing?they were
so barbaric they drove my parents to
the norfch. If it hadn't been for that
I wouldn't be in congress today,
"JPve been Jim Crowed, segregated,
persecuted, and I think I know how
best the negro can put a stop to being
imposed upon. It is through the
, ballot, through organization, through
fighting eternally for his rights."
DePriest's reference to "driving his
parents to the north," hearkened back
to his childhood in northern Alabama.
l-There he witnessed the lynching of
three negroes near his home, and after
that'his parents moved to.Kansas
and later to Chicago.
Wnile the 2,000 persons in
the hall where the congressman spoke
cheered him loudly and long another
1,000 stood outside, unable to gain
admittance. ?- :

Out To Kill Sheep-Eating Wolfe.
Winchester, JCy., July 8.?A. hugb
grey wolf that hgs.menac.ed sheep x)n.
peaceful ranges in the foothills' of the
Cumberlands is the object of a. county
wide search of hundreds of men and.
dogs.
'For months the animal has been
stalking through the flocks and sheep
"raisers estimate the damage from
'one beast has been at least $}0,00Q.
Wolves are something of a rarity
in Kentucky, even in counties like
Clark which border on th'e Cumber,
lands and where ragged hills and raI
vines offer an ideal hiding place. A
few of the sheep growers have fired
on the wolf, but never have been able
to" hit him because he has kept at a
great distance.

Huge Snake At Church Service
Mai-heville, Ga., July 2.?A huge
rattlesnake more than six feet long
and .uiuoSt fivg inches in circumference,
participated in the services
held at the Methodist church here
Sunday by Rev. M. T. Webb. Ohly
the pastor was aware of the presence
of the reptile.
The pastor was expounding the
doctrines of his faith when to emphasize
one of his remarks Rev. Mr.
Webb threw his glance heavenward.
His voice died away but his glance
remained?peering over one of the
globes in the chandelier, into which
was coiled the snake, its beady eyes
fixed on the pastor as if it too was
enjoying the sermon.
Rev. Mr. Webb realizing the panicami
pandemonium that would ensue
if the congregation knew of the
snake's presence, continued with the
service. At its conclusion he gathered
several members ot his board of
stewards together and with a long
pole dislodged the reptile. The pole
managed by the stewards also was
used in dispatching the unwelcome
visitor.
