TUB FAMILY (rlK)UP ..When I was a boy, it was not unusual for a community to be visited by a traveling photographer, then called a picture taker. Nearly every family wanted a group picture and our family fell for the racket. They cost $2.00 for 1 or $3.00 for 4. ? 1 1 - ' . .1 never will forget the day we were all told by ma to get ready to have our pictures took. 'Washing faces and feet and' hands, combing and greasing our hair, putting on our Sunday clothes and otherwise trying to tyok pretty.... was an ordeal that 1 shall neVer forget. . We were nil herded but in the front yard, l'a wanted the picture to take in the front of the house; we had two glass windows in oiw house and he wanted* them to show. ^Jlass windows was a sign of near wealth then. There were only 10 of us children and 1 dogs, anil ma and pa in our family. Hut we hud tt) leave -out the dogs; the picture man made us do that, much to my disappointment, ..After moving alPof us about and pushing (ore of us forward and another backward, making Jim stand up and Sal lie sit down, and adjusting 2 babies on nut's lap and 2 slightly older onok on pa's knees, the picture taker began to sight as us thru a little black hole with a cloth over his head. 1 .When pa and ma thought everybody* wa- ready, we discovered that Jule and Jerry were not there. We, counted the flock twice, and sure enough they were missing. We finally found Jule hid under the ginIn.use and Jerry was in top of a tree oyer a hundred feet high. We finally got them in line, but they were powerful mad and terribly seared. I'a held a big book in his hand on j his right knee ,iu>t beyond the 2 voungun- and nia had her nice- 10-J cent fan in her left hand where it would show up well. Most of us were white-headed; our clothes altogether didn't cost 2 dollars; nomade, sprinkled but not ironed, and not a shoe was on bur feet. We didn't have any shoes. . ? The time finally came for the -hot and the man blew a whistle and mashed a syringe and we didn't know anything else till he came back a week later. Four of us were crying in that picture; 1 was trying to get something out,. ?f my nose; Bertha had a .cob in her mouth and the rest of the kids were either crying,a grinning or were asleep. My face took plumb black; 1 was in the shade. As soon as the girls and boys got big enough to be ashamed of anything, they -tore up that group picture, but I'd give 10 dollars for it today. It was the ugliest bunch of folks 1 ever saw assembled in one place at or.o time, that i> ? except ma and pa; they looked fine. ? MIKK I'l.KA l)S FOR IIBI.P flat rock. s. deem 7.

Sheriff Otto Theisen relinquished the prisoner only after a hard fight in the jail by officers against a mob he estimated at 7,000 persons. While the body swung in the air, members of the mob applied torches^ flaming gasoline soaked rags. f Officers said Warner had confessed attacking a Si-year-old white girl in an alleyway here Sunday night. Kicked and beaten, she was found tied with her stockings. Only six months ago the negro escaped prosecution on a charge of assaulting a negro woman. Mt.
