He i3 Clark Greer of Georgia, cus- todian of the Hoover negro delegates from the south. He 15 happy because he has found six of his negro delegates, who were kidnaped last night by a rival cus- todian and hidden out across the river in Kansas. This convention, as each conven- tion has done for the last quarter century, brought together the two ancient foes, Clark Greer and Miller Carnes, each Georgia bred negroes made famous by their ability to hold negro delegates in line. At this conclave, Greer appeared as Hoover's boss negro and Carnes arrived soon after in the same role for Lowden, as Carnes during recent years has taken up residence in Chicago. Their job is to see that their wards “stay put” and do not fall for lures offered by opposing camps. This requires constant alertness and sharp herding to keep the fold in- tact as the boss negroes have more tricks up their sleeves than a Houdini. This particular trouble was caused by the Georgia delegation. Greer attempted to bring the negro dele- gates in in two half dozen bunches. He got his first six in all right, but last night when he went to the station to meet the other six they did not appear, although they had telegraphed they had started. Scenting trouble, Greer made a frantic tour of the city, but failed to find any trace of his delegates. He sought the aid of the police and searched all night long and through the morning. At noon he found his negroes huddled across the river, far re- moved from all convention activie ties and not knowing where they were. He brought them to Kansas City and housed them in a hotel and is now happy and content. Greer explains that Carnes worked a trick on him that was so old he thought it had gone out of use. “That was worked on me 13 yéars, ago,” he declared. The other day, he said, Carnecs told him he thought he “would run up to Chicago for a few days'” In- stead of going to Chicago, Greer de- clares Carnes went to East St. Louis and intercepted his delegates, them out across the river.

LOCUSTS INCREASING Sunshine Over Week-end Brings Out Thousands of Insects to Feed on Shrubs and Garden Leaves, The two fair days of last week have encouraged the cicadas or 17 year locusts to leave their under. ground homes in increasing numbers and thousands of them are congre- gating in the western section for their campaign of warfare against the foliage of the city.
