AFRICAN GOLF.
Peoplle who have read in the Sat
urday Evenng Post the humorous ar
ticle about “Lady Luck” and the
champion crapshooter of two conti
nents is introduced to all the slang
and superstition of “galloping domi
noes,” “African golf,” or, the faith
ful “sevens” and “elevens.”
The New Orleans Pcayune says
about this:
“Of course, the dictionaries at
tempt to trace the name ‘craps’ back
to earlier European sport terms and
to a different significance, but every
negro knows that ‘craps am ah col
lohed invenshun,’ and is willing to
prove it by demonstrating how much
more willingly a ‘nick’ or a ‘natural’
will flow from the fingers of a dar
key than from even the most ex
perienced of white ‘bone hooks.’ ”
A serious report has been made by
those who are examining ethr:o‘ jgy
that the native of New Mexico origi
nated craps. On specimens of their
pottery have been depicted animated
crap games. The discovery, howev
er, suggests that it was an Indian
and not a negro who first called up
on “Little Joe” to come sit right up
on his daddy’s knee.
Policeman Hales
Wife and Male
Friend to Jail
Atlanta, Ga.—Arresting his own
wife and sending her into durance
vile was the unique experience that
fell to the lot of an Atlanta police
man Friday night.
Officer T. W. Williams took his
wife and a man named W. L. Ben
nett, of 44 Gresham street, in charge
on Peachtree street and escorted
the pair to the box at Marietta
street, called the wagon and brought
them to police station on a
lodged by Mrs. Bennett, wife of the
man arrested.
Mrs. Williams and Bennett both
work at the Fulton plant of the
Georgia Railway and Power Compa
ny. Mrs. Williams charges that her
husband had neglected her in order
to attend lodge meetings and stated
that there was nothing improper in
her relations with Bennett.
Bennett was released on a S2OO
bond while Mrs. Williams spent the
night in the matron’s ward.
BUZZ SAW HAS
NO TERRORS FOR
THIS WOMAN
Orange, N. J.—A 69 year old wo
man is the best mill hand in town.
She is Mrs. Rachel Neill, a gray
haired mother who took up this work
as an avocation thirty five years
ago. Now her plant is one of the
busiets in the state.
There’s little about milling that
Mrs. Neill doesn’t know. She can
feed abuzz saw as skillfully as any
man she can plane a board as
quickly as her fastest worker; and
there is no machine in her place
that she can’t operate.
Heh chief business is turning out
window sashes, wall frames and the
like. When a rush oder comes in,
Mrs. Neill leaves her little office on
the first floor of her plant, goes up
stairs to the workrooms and sees
that the job goes through. If it
doesn’t go fast enough, she rolls -qp
her sleeves and lends a hand.
“Old?”! she says. “Not at all.
Work is the greatest elixor of youth.
It keeps one young indefinitely.”
Although she is close to 70, Mrs.
Neill walks as sprightly as her
youngest employe, shouts as loud as
the rest of them, as they raise their
voice above the hum of the buzz
saws, and needs no glasses to im
prove her eyesight. Worry about
business troubles?
“Never,” she says. “What’s the
good? If costs of labor and mate
rial mount, just be optomistic that
they will come down again.”

NECESSARY TO
WHIP CONVICTS
Moultrie, Ga.—“ Whipping within

quitt county grand jury in its gen

Several months ago Governor
Hardwick, by proclamation, banned
use of the whip in Georgia prisons.
