LINCOLN NEWS IN BRIEF
Shriners’ Banquet Great Social
Function
In what will probably prove to be
the greatest social event of the pres
ent season, Shriners from all over the
state assembled at Walsh hall last
Friday evening to assist Islam Tem
ple No. 65 with their great fall fes
tival, given at that time and place.
We particularly noted the noble breth
ren who journeyed from Grand Island,
Hastings and Fairbury, but the great
er representation came from Temple
of Zaha at Omaha, who sent fifteen
noble representatives, including Noble
Nathoniel Hunter, 33°, M. W. Grand
Master of Nebraska Masons.
The autumn colors of old gold and
black were the principal decorations
brightened with a few touches of the
last roses of summer. And coupled
with the formal costumes worn by the
nobles and their wives, with the red
and white fez of their respective or
ders, and the members of the repre
sentation of the patrol team in uni
form, a picture was presented that
will live vividly in the minds of all
who attended as long as their brains
continue to function.
The Illustrious Potentate of Islam
Temple, Noble Trago T. McWilliams
wishes to take this opportunity tc
thank all nobles who helped in this
affair, and to particularly thank the
members of the Court of Isis for theii
active interest in every way to help tc
make this a festival of no regrets.
The following are the committees:
General arrangements, A. C. Stanley
chairman; Charles E, Haynes, C. R
Johnson, C. F. Shipman. Lloyd Carter
C. W. Malone James R. Thomas, sec
retary
In charge of cuisine: Charles F,

liams, captain; C. W. Malone, Willian
Robinson, H. M. Hill, Lloyd Carter
M. E. Williams.
After prayer by Noble Smith, thi
guests, about two hundred, seatei
themselves and enjoyed the elaborati
viands. The orchestra played at in
tervals. Toastmaster R. H. Youni
introduced and after making a fev
remarks said, “Let us eat.” Noble W
S. Wilkinson of Fairbury favored thi
party with a saxaphone solo, witl
Mrs. I. Malone accompanist on piano
Mr. Nate Hunter of Omaha madi
a few encouraging remarks, saying
“We are glad to be here.” Out o
town guests were Nobles John Duff
C. E. Brisco, D. A. Horton of Hast
ings; Noble Wilkinson and wife oi

enport, la., and fifteen nobles froir
Omaha representing Zaha Temple No
52, among them being G. M. Noble

their hard work in fathoming this af
fair to make it such a glowing suc
cess. The daughters of Isis looked
very charming in white fezes.

JAIL DELIVERY
(By the Associated Negro Press)
FITZGERALD, Ga., Nov. 18.—
Eleven awaiting trial in Ben Hill
county jail celebrated Hallowe’en in
the only general jail delivery the
county has ever experienced. They
escaped and one has been recaptured.
According to Tom Turner, recap
tured, the plot to escape was engin
eered by Tom Horne, charged with as
ault with intent to murder, and Dan
iel Davis, charged with intent to rape.
One or both of them filed out a key
‘o fit the individual cell doors. Horne,
who was a trusty, released Daniels
'ram his cage during the day and
Daniels concealed himself by climb
rag on top of his cage. He then
turned out his fellow prisoners. They
made their escape by breaking a small
padlock on the door leading to the
coal bin and crawling out of the coal
chute.
So quietly was the escape effected
that Sheriff E. P. Dorminey had no a
inkling of it until he went into the
cell corridor at breakfast time.

RACE QUESTION WORLD WIDE
AND GROWING ACUTE
(By The Associated Negro Press) '
NEW YORK. N. Y„ Nov. 25.—The '
Negro question is growing more acute
all over the world, according to Dr. F.
Peter Mueller-Carlson, ore engineei
and world traveler, of Basel, Switzer
land. The little South American island
of Trinidad is a typical example of |
this, he says. There Negroes obtained
a great many more privileges during
the war and more money. They are
j now challenging the supremacy of
I their numerically inferior white rul
ers, he says.
Our business is not to see what lies
dimly at a distance, but to do what
lies clearly at our hand.
Ability is mostly in inverse ratio to
the hue and cry of the streets. Hence
strong characters are as settled in
their modesty and silence as weaken
natures are hysterical in satire rant
and violent in their gestures.
