John Minzie, of Chicago, and wounded
his partner in crime, Joe Fox of Ham

window and as Minzie was in the act
of entering Dale fired and opening the
door rushed out, both burglars jumped
off the porch, and ran, Dale firing
again. Minzie fell dead within fifteen
feet of the porch and his companion
jumping over the fpnce entered an
awaiting car in which were two wo
men who screamed when they heard
the shot' and escaped. Tuesday the
police took into custody Joe Fox,
wounded in the shoulder, and his wife
and Mrs. Minzie, who were the wo
men in the car. Burglar’s tools were
found on the person of the slain man.
A coroner’s jury exonerated Dale
and commended him for his prompt
action.

PROPYLENE IS LATEST
ANESTHETIC DISCOVERED
Can Be Administered Without Injury
From Poisonous Property ef
Gas, Says Savant.
New Orleans, La.—Discovery of a
new anesthetic was announced hy Dr.
John T. Halsey, professor of pharm
acology and therapeutics at Tulane
university, In a paper read before the
Orleans Medical society.
The anesthetic is propylene gas,
contained In some natural gas. and
which Doctor Halsey and his labora
tory assistants, Chapman Reynolds
and Harold B. Cook, the three of
whom discovered Its properties, believe
can be manufactured from mineral
oils. Doctor Halsey's announcement
came after several months of labora
tory work by Ills assistants and him
self.
“Propylene Is similar to ethylene,
the discovery of whose anesthetic
properties, announced last year In Chi
cago. was hailed with enthusiasm by
the medical profession, and resulted In
Its extensive use In surgical cases,"
said Doctor Halsey.
Doctor Halsey said the apparent su
periority of propylene was due to the
fact that It was active even though
j considerably diluted with oxygen. An
anesthetic depends for Its usefulness
j on its possible administration in suffi
cient strength to ohtaln complete an
i esthesla, without injury from poison
1 oun property of the gas, he pointed
out. Oxygen must he administered
mixed with the gns, and It therefore
Is essential that the anesthetic Itself
be of sufficient strength to bring about
complete unconsciousness, even when
| Inhaled considerably diluted with oxy

Character Is Security
for Loans to Students
New York.—Holding that the char
acter of self-supporting college stu
dents Is good security for loans, the
Harmon foundation of New York has
Instituted a plan by which its funds
are lent to selected students with the
expectation that the money will be re
paid after graduation.
"The foundation does not lend
money directly to students." says the
United Stutes bureau of education, In
describing the plau, “but makes an ar
rangement with the presidents of cer
tain colleges by which u Htuted sum
Is assigned for the use of students.
When the plan Is Introduced Into a
collegp, a faculty committee of three
Is appointed by the president, and stu
dents In the Junior and senior clusses
may apply to this committee for loans
up to the maximum of $1150.
“An advisory committee Is then
elected from their number by the stu
dents chosen to receive the loans, and
this committee assists the faculty
committee In choosing the beneficiaries
for the next year.
“All loans are to be paid In fall
with 0 per cent Interest. In addition,
10 per cent more than the amount
actually received by each student is
Included In the note which he signs on
obtaining the loan. This excess
amount Is used to make up losses
caused by nonrepayment of loans, and
four-fifths of It Is used to cover losses
incurred by defuults within the bor
rower’s own group.”

West Indies next January will be the
burial place of Christopher Columbus,
the discoverer of the New World.
After two removals, his bones lie
In a crypt in the great Cathedral at
Havana. He was first buried in Spain
but later It was thought more appro
priate to re-inter his bones in San Do
mingo, where he had founded his chief
colony. Two hundred years after his
death, San Domingo having been ce
ded to Prance, the Spaniards again re
moved his remains to Havana.
The route of the Aladdin Cruise
which is to include a number of prom

THE KU KLUX KLAN
Urges Protestant Ministers to Combat
Hooded Body as a Duty to Them
selves and the Country.
-{
(Ely Associated; Negro Press)
New York, June 13.—Don Marquis,
author, poet and Conductor of “The
Lantern,” a column on the editorial
page of the New York Herald-Tribune,
has denounced the Ku Klux Klan as a
menance to America and urged the
Protestant ministers of the country to
lead in the fight against the hooded or
ganization. Mr. Mafquig asks whether
the Klan, if victorious, intends to de
prive Catholics, Jews and Negroes of
their share in citizenship, and if not,
why the Klai, should continue to ex
ist. America, he continues is not a
Christian country as the founders very
carefully provided that anyone should
have freedom to believe, or not be
lieve, anything he pleased: “They
were determined that a man might be
£ Buddhist, an Atheist, a Baptist, a
Catholic, a Pharisee, a Moslem, a Jew,
wltout suffering for his convictions,
without giving up his political priv
ileges.
"If this policy is overthrown, either
formally and frankly by a change in
the Constitution, or indirectly nullified
by political trickery, It is goodnight
to America and all that America might
have meant in the larger history of
humanity.
“The Protestant ministers of Amer
ica owe it to themselvee, to their
churces and to their country to organ
ize and lead a strenuous fight against
the Ku Klux Klan.”

A STORY OF THE MARTYRS OF 1822
A Story of Ante-Bellum Days, Dealing With Slave Insurrection at Charleston
_
Things remained in this state of
watchful anxiety, on both sides, for
about a week. Vesey on his part re
mitted nothing of his preparations for
the coming 16th of June, but pushed
them if possible with increased vigor
and secrecy. He held the while noc
turnal meetings at his house on Bull
street, where modified arrangements
for the execution of his plans were
broached and matured. How he dared
at this juncture to incur such extreme
hazard of detection, 1t is difficult to
understand. But he and his confed
erates were men of the most Indomit
able purpose, and took in the desper
ate circumstances, In which they were
then placed, the most desperate
chances. They had to. They could
not do otherwise.
Tlie city on its side, was listening
during a part of the same week to a
second confession of that poor fellow
whose tongue had outmeasured his
discretion. It was listening with re
viving dread to the wild and incoher
ent disclosures of this man, whom it
had flung into the black hole of the
workhouse. There, crazed by misery
and fear of death, he raved about a
plot among the blacks to massacre
the whites and to put the town to fire
and pillage. This second Installment
of William Paul’s excited dlBllosrree,
while It. Increased the sense of im
pending peril, did not put the govern
ment in better position to avert it.
For groping In the dark still, It knew
not yet where or whom to strike. But
In this period of horrible suspense and
uncertainty itf; suspicion fell on an
other one of Vesey’s principal leaders.
This time It wub on Ned Bennett that
the city’s distrustful eye fastened. Like
that game which children play where
the object of search Is hidden, and
where the seekers as they approach
near and yet nearer to the place of
concealment, grow warm and then
warmer, so was the city, in Its ter
rible search for the source of its dan
ger, growing hot and hotter. That
was, Indeed, a frightful moment for
the conspirators when Ned Bennett
became suspected. The city, ae the
children say in their game, was be
ginning to burn, fori it seemed as if
it must at the next move, thrust its
iron hand into that underground world
where the plot was hatching, and
clutching the heart of the great enter
prise, snatch it, conspiracy and con
spirators, into the light of day. But
it was at. such a tremendous moment
of danger, that the leaders, unawed by
the Imminency of discovery, took a
step to throw the city off the scent, so
daring, dextrous and unexpected as to
knock the breath out of us.
Ned Bennett, whom the city was
watching as a cat, before springing
watches a mouse, went voluntarily be
fore the In.tewta.nt or 'Ma|yor of the
city, and asked to be examined, If so
By Francis J. Grimke
PART VI r.
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Betrayal and Disaster
be he was an object of suspicion to the
authorities. Ned was so surprisingly
cool and indifferent, and wore so nat
urally an air of conscious Innocence,
that a great many were again deceived
and the city was thus thrown a second
time out of the course of its game.
Ned's arreBt and examination were
postponed, as the authorities in their
perplexity were afraid to take at the
time any decisive action, lest It might
prove premature and abortive. And so
lying on Its arms, the city waited and
watched for fresh developments and
disclosures, while the insurgent lead
ers, in their underground world
watched warily too, and pushed for
ward with undimlnighed confidence
final preparations, when they would,
out of the dark, slrike suddenly their
liberating and annihilating blow. This
awful state of suspense, of the most
watchful suspicion and anxiety on one
side, and of wary and anxious prepar
ations on the other, continued for
about five or six days, when it was
ended by a second act of treachery
emanating from the distrusted class of
“waiting men,” whose highest aspir
ations did not spem to reach above
their masters' cast off garments.
Unlike the first, the information fur
nished to the authorities by the sec
ond traitor, was not lacking in defin
iteness. For this fellow knew what
he was talking about. He knew al
most all of the leaders, and many par
ticulars connected with the plot. The
city was thus placed In possession of
the secret. It knew now the names of
the ringleaders. But confident, ap
parently, of its ability to throttle the
intended insurrection, it allowed two
days to pass and the 16th of June,
without making any arrests. Cat-like
it crouched ready to spring, while It
followed the unconscious movements
of the principal conspirators. For
Vesey and his principal officers were
at the time, ignorant of the second
betrayal, and therefore of the fact that
they were from the 14th of June at
the mercy of the police. On Saturday
night, June 15th, an Incident occur
red, however, which warned them that
they were betrayed, and that disaster
was close at hand, 'this Incident re
vealed as by a flash of lightning the
hopelessness of their position. On
that day Vesey had instructed one of
his aids, Jesse Blackwood, to go Into
the country In the evening for the pur
pose of preparing the plantation
slaves to enter the city on the day fol
lowing, which was Sunday, June 16th,
1
the time fixed for beginning the in
surrection. .Jesse was unable to dis
charge this mission either on Saturday
night or Sunday morning, owing to
the increased strength and vigilance
of the city police and of its patrol
guard. He bad succeeded on Sunday
morning in getting by two of their
lines, but at the third line he was
halted and turned back into the city.
When this ominous fact was reported
to the Old Chief, Vesey became very
sorrowful.
He and the other leaders must have
instantly perceived that they were
caught as in a trap, and that the end
was near. It was probably on this
Sunday that they destroyed their pa
pers, lists of name and other incrim
inating evidence. The shadow of the
approaching catastrophe deepened and
spread rapidly around and above them
as they watched and waited helplessly
under the huge asp of slavery, which
enraged and now completely coiled,
was about to strike. The stroke fell
first on Peter, Rolla, Ned and Batteau
Bennett. The last., although but a
boy of eighteen, was one of the most
active of the younger leaders of the
plot. So secret and profound had
been his methods of operations in the
underground world, that the early re
ports of his connection with the con
spiracy, were generally discredited
among the whites. Jesse Blackwood
was taken the next day, and four days
later, on June 27th, Monday Gell was
arrested. Oullah Jack eluded the
searrh of the police until July 5th,
when he too was struck by the hugh
slave asp.
In all, there were one hundred and
thirty-one blacks arrested, sixty-seven
convicted, thirty-five executed, and
thirty-seven banished beyond the lim
its of the United States. Five of these
last were of the class of suspects,
whom it was th< lght best to get rid
of. Of the whole number of convic
tions, not one belonged to the bands
of either Vesey, or Peter, or Rolla, or
Ned, and but few to that of Gullah
Jack’s. Absolutely true did these five
leaders prove to their vow of secrecy,
and so died without betraying a single
associate. This alas! cannot be said
of Monday Gell, who brave and loyal
as he was throughout the period of his
arrest and trial, yet after sentence of
death had been passed upon him, and
under the influence of a terror Striek
er. copipanion, succumbed to tempta
tion, and for the sake of life, con
sented to bertay Mb followers. Den
mark, Peter, Rolla, Nod, Batteau and
Jesse, were hanged together, July 2,
1822. Ten months later Gullah Jack
suffered death on the gallows also.
Upon an enormous gallows, erected
on the lines near Charleston, twenty
two of the black martyrs to freedom
were executed on te 22nd day of the
same ill-starred month.
