VIRGINIA GLORIES OUTLINED IN TALK Clarence A. Phillips Gives Lecture Béfore Columbia Historical Society. An illustrated talk by Clarence A. Phillips on “The Glories of Old Vir- ginia” occupied the entire program of the Columbia Historical Society at its final meeting of the season last night in the Cosmos Club. ‘The natural-coior photographs with which Mr. Phillips illustrated his lec- ture were taken by him on a thousand- mile trip through the Old Dominion. Special Views Shown. Some of the most interesting views | were of Monticello, beautiful home of | Thomas Jefferson. Going_down into | the town of Charlottesville, several | scenes about the University of Virginia including the famnuS; xt went to Washington and Lee Ur'versity. One of the photo- graphs taken &t this university was of the famous statue of Gen. Robert E. Lee, showing the Confederate leader sleeping in full uniform. Many critics have hailed this masterpiece as one of the world's greatest works of art. From Lexington, Mr. Phillips tarried his audience through the rich Virginia farming country, past Natural Bridge and through Lynchburg and Petersburg | to Richmond. | Describes James River Area. Leaving the State capital, he moved down the James River, stopping long enough to show views of the homes of such_distinguished Virginia families as the Carters and the Byrds. A striking feature o( these homes ‘was the distinctive ‘character of the :mhwecture and the beautiful old gar- ens. A considerable portion of his lecture was devoted to Williamsburg, home of the second oldest university in this country, which is now being restored to its_colonial appearance. The last phase of his talk dealt with the towns of Fredericksburg and Alex- andria, famous Civil War battlefields and Mount Vernon. Mr. Phillips was given a rising vote ©f thanks by the large audience. HONOLULU CENSUS GAIN Population Stated at 138,600, In- crease 66.51 Per Cent.

CHURCH REINSTATES 16 OUSTED MEMBERS | Those Who Said They Belonged to Union, Were Dismissed During Riots Last Summer. By the Associated Press. MARION, N. C., May 21.—In sharp contrast to the turbulent scenes of last Summer, when strikers and county law enforcement officers were clashing in mill villages here, 16 members of the East Marion Baptist Church, who were dismissed from the church because, they said, they were members of a union, have been reinstated, an an- nouncement here yesterday said. Dismissol of the members, on charges other than belonging to a union, ac- cording to church officials, followed riots in the Clinchfield and East Marion mill villages. Six men were killed and more than 30 persons wounded, all strikers or sylpathizers, when guns flashed at the gates of the Marion Manufacturing Co. early one morning. Yesterday's announcement said that the members were restored May 18 as members of good fellowship and stand- ing, without their consent or request. The action was taken following request of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ of America, the Rev. P, D. Man- gum, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Marion, said. Only five deposed members are now living in Marion. New :l;hedn]e Cuts Distance.

CHICAGO, May 21.—George Crowner, 42, a Chicago commuter from Villa Park, seemed to have an everlasting 25-ride ticket. But fipally the fact that Crowner's little pasteboard never seemed to grow smaller, despite the daily nibbling ef a punch, puzzled the conductor who punched it every night.

The jury found that nr“.he’r the cat nor its owner could be blamed or held liable for $10,000 damages sought by Mrs. Alice Compton, 56, who alleged a feline bit her when she stepped on its tail in a grocery store. Mrs. Compton charged the store with negligence in not controlling the cat's whereabouts, while counsel for the store countered that she was careless where she walked. interim, Commissioner Emmons authorized a series of police raids on handbooks, resulting in the arrest of almost 300 persons.
