Balnbridge, Ga., Nov. 24.—Ernest
Brown. 17, of Dalkeath, Fla., fell heir
to a four-week’s old infant boy yester
day while a passenger on a train en
route here from Dothan, Ala., when a
woman left her baby on the boy’s lap
and never returned.
Shortly after Brown left Dothan the
woman with the baby changed her
Feat to one side behind him. She
engaged in conversation with the
young man and asked hi mto hold
the baby for a few moments.
When Brown left here for Dal-
reath he announced his intention of
having his father to obtain authority
to adopt the child. He said he would
name the baby for himself and the
family physician of the Browns. He
said he had made a number of pur
chases for the infant.
The baby was neatly dressed and a
umarasi!
neat clothing and a number of
unsealed envelopes containing pat
terns for infant’s clothing.

BLACK-DRAUGHT
Woman Elected Mayor
Of Georgia Town
Dublin. Ga., Nov. 27.—The male
voters of Brewton, Ga., ten miles east
of Dublin, In this county, were given
a severe jolt Saturday when official
returns of the town election showed
the election of a woman mayor and
five women aldermen. Mrs. W. H.
Beall was elected mayor over Dr. C.
G. Moye, and W. H. Tyre, her male
opponents, and the following women
were elected aldermen against a field
of seven male candidates: Mrs. M. E.
Brantley, Mrs. M. F. Beall. Mrs. F. A.
Brantley, Mrs. C. O. Moye and Mrs.
H. B. Sutton.
A peculiar incident is that Mrs. C.
G. Moye was elected as alderwoman
when her husband suffered defeat
for mayor. i
Brewton Das a population of some
thing like two hundred and fifty peo
ple and has a splendid reputation for
being law-abiding, and has for sev-
. eral months past been without the
services of a policewoman. It is now
rugjoreJ that a lady will lie »amed
to police the town.

Washington, Nov. 26.—The motive
of the Republican party in silently but
effectively “knifing” Henry Lincoln
Johnson, national committeeman from
Georgia, constitutes an apparently
unsolvable mystery. When the Sen
ate eclined to confirm him as register
of deeds of the Dlstfict of Columbia,
to which post President Harding as
signed him as a reward for his ef
forts in the campaign last Fall, and
in which post he served as an ap-
pointer? of former President Taft, the
Republicans "double crossed" him in
the opinion of the negro, himself.
The Republicans declare that their
action was based on the fact that
Johnson was personally obnoxious to
the Senators from Georgia, both of
whom are Democrats. But such a de
fense cannot apply when the office
to which an appointee has been nam
ed is not concerned with the state
from which the senators come. Under
Taft, Johnson was obnoxious to the
senators who then represented Geor
gia. But Johnson was confirmed.
Marked Effect Expected
The effect of the rejection of John
son by the Republicans of the sen
ate will have effect on the .situation
In several states of the union where
the negro Is strong, numerically.
There are many districts and several
states wherein the negro constitutes
the balance of power. The negro vote
in Ohio is 286,000.
Johnson, during the last campaign,
was effective among the negroes of
the United States. He boasts and
here is no dispute of his assetrion,
hat the Republican party lost no ne-
uro vote last Fall. When the fight
was over, Johnson asked for reward.
The president offered 'him the office
in which he had formerly served—
that of register of deeds in the Dis
trict of Columbia.
When he was given this office, he
was deprived of the patronage of
Georgia. A new Republican executive
ommittee was raised. Johnson was
apparently satisfied to be thus shorn
of authority. He wanted the Job.
And then the Republicans tunica him
down.
Cleared of All Charges
There were marges filed against
Johnson. But a subcommittee of the
■ommittee of the District of Colum
bia cleared him of all such charges.
When the senate in executive session
considered his appointment, the two
Georgia senators declared him obnox
ious. lie was rejected.
It ,is understood that while a ma
jority of the negroes of the United
States iusisted that Johnson be given
the office, a minority opposed hi.n
This minority feared, it is under
stood. that Johnson wot Id be recog
nized as ’’the” negro in the United
States. That this minority convinced
the. 'Republicans that they might re
ject Johnson lit safety, is possible but
li is disputed.
There Is satisfaction among Demo
crats that Johnson is rejected. It was
held to he obnoxious that this negro
should lord it over an office of which
the working force in tlie main'.corislst-
e.l of white girls. But srch considera
tion in the past had given the Repub
licans no pause.
