NEW YORK, Dec. 30.—Two armed men who had come to his home in Teaneck, N. J.,to rob him of $10,000 in cash they believed he had on his person, were entertained by William Thompson, a contractor, given sever- al glasses of wine each and politely ushered to the door, empty-handed, by him last night. “Awful sorry to have disturbed you; happy New Year,” the men called back thickly, as they stumbled down the steps and ‘stepped into the automobile in which they had planned to make their escapzs. While they sat drinking in a friendly manner in the dining room, Thompson told the men that they had made a mistake. He had Invest- ed the $10,000 in cash in stock, he said and offered to, give them the stock certificate. They refused it. Then he offered to write them a check for $500. Again they refused. ¥inally he ‘wished them’ a happy New Year and showed them out, as they apologized for troubling him. He had invited them to have a drink when he was confronted by them, pistols poised, as he opened the front door of his ,home in response to their ring. The police are searching for the men.

M. Tchitcherin does not talk about recoknition of the Soviet Govern- ment. He keeps scrupulously awdy from purely political considerations. But he asks the United States to meet Russia half way and work outa method by ‘which the two countries can get down to business. The Foreign Minister touches on the unsuccessful effort from the American side made through Am- bassador Houghton in Berlir. He suggests ‘“‘bureaus for trade infor- mation’ in New York and Moscow as one way of finding a formula. Hopes for Understanding. “I hope the Russian people’s de- sire for collaborating with the Amer- ican people for productive work will finally be fulfilled,’’ he said. “Ifthe first attempt at preparing such re- lations did not succeed, I earnestly hope we aball soon find the possibil- ity of coming to an understanding. Would not the American Govern- ment see its way clear to consent- ing to creation of a Russian bureau for trade information in New York, to facilitate business and.creation of a similar American byeau in Mos- cow? That would be the begin- ning for renewal of trade relations. Year after year passes. We are now entering upon a new year and immense natural resources rest dor- mant in Russia. If we can find means to re-establish trade rela- tions, American enterprises and wealth could open them to man- kind. “Our internal conditions are now completely settled. Private § trade goes on undisturbed and the Rus- sian people, who remember the gen- erous work of the American admin- istration, are asking themselves why it is impossible to have common constructive work.” M. Tchitcherin shows Russia as being placed in an impossible posi- tion here at the Near Fastern con- ference. He declares Russia will not sign the straits convention permit- ting big warships to enter the Black Sea, but believes the problem will automatically be settled by univer- sal naval disarmament. Wanted Stratts Closed. “T came to Lausanne,” he -ex- plains, “to urge limitation of arma- ments on the Black Sea. I asked that the straits be closed to all but light warships—a move toward naval Nmitation. I failed. ‘The British policy prevented and that is a military policy in all its nakedness. Russia is resolved not to sign the straits convention as now laid down. TY will permit the en- trance of big warships into the | Black Sea, and shore will be continually menaced. “We do not want to reconstruct the Black Sea fleet: we need every cent for interior reconstruction. The whole thought of Russia is away from naval expansion, so we are ready to co-operate in any effort which will enable us and the rest of the world to avoid domination by the biggest sea power. “The straits convention as now planned at Lausanne is an offer to the strongést sea power to seize the straits when she wants to and hold m dominating position in the Near East. 4 Offer Passed Unheeded. “We are believing in another way out and expressed that belief by of- fering in the conference to guarante2 mutual security among all Black Sea States. It passed unheeded, and unless there is a general limitation of naval armaments Russia must spend money needed for internal re- construction to arm on land and sea “We asked for limitation of naval operations. The system which pre- vailed at Lausanne means extending naval operations. We asked that the Straits be closed and kept closed as they were long closed to prevent the Czarist fleet from entering the Continued on Page 2, Column 8.

BALTIMORE, Dec. 30.—Buck Herzog, former major league star, who was mentioned in the Rube Ben- ton case, now before Baseball Com- missioner Landis, wants the affair reopened and has retained Charlies H. Knapp as his attorney. Knapp is well known in baseball, having served as Jack Dunn's legal adviser for years. “There will be no further inuen- does in this matter. “ Baseball au- thorities must either clear Herzog of any possible suspicion or else convict him,” said Mr. Knapp today. “Herzog is not sure that he ever the season.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Dec. 30.— Harlan Orville (Pat) Page today signed a contract as director of the athletics at Butler College here ror the next five years announcement was made by the Board of Trustees at Butler tonight. Athletic Director Page came to Butler in 1920 from the University of Chicago, where he had been. schooled both as a player and a coach, under A. A. Stage. The Board of Trustees did not give par- ticulars of Page's new contract.

McCarthy's eleven, made up of youngsters, found itself after the first 45 minutes and outspeeded the Scullins at all times. The Ves- pers were in better condition, and as regards to phvsical fitness, the same probably will be true tomor- row. This is because the injuries re- cttved by the players of the Vespers mended more quickly than those re- ceived by athletes on Brady's eleven. - @ellerman and Benticy Hurt. When the replays was originally scheduled for a week ago, Harry Mc- Carthy asked for a week's postpone- ment, stating that four of his play- ers—Hack, Ryser Bergin and Cor- rigan—were injured. Biady also had injured men, but he @id not seek a ement. But when McCarthy asked for it, Brady was willing.’ Now it seems that the Sculling wil! be worse off today than the Vespers. According te reports, all the Veaper players will be in tip-top condition. The same is not true of the Scullins. Oellerman's leg injury was siow shown tn a game this season. fans who .go to High School Field today will be assured of a real fight. The elevens will piay 45-minute halves and Paul Murphy, who handled ‘the original clash in great style, will again be the referee. Tomorrow's attraction brings the West Frankfort (Tll.) team here for a game with the Ben Millers. Earlier In the season, the Illinois aggregation was defeated by a 4—3 score by the Scullins in a national cup battle. This game starts at 2:30 o'clock. A pre- liminary game between the O’Tooles and Heffermans of the St. Teresa League also -will be played. - By the Associated Press. LAKE PLACID.

There are @pécial music features for New Year's week. - “Other Men's Shoes,” Universal first big New Year release, featuring Herbert Rawlinson, is the attraction for the week at the Riwoll theater. The story is based oh Vittory Bridges’ novel of that name. oe Rawili has the support of a cast which includes Barbara Bed- ford, Josef Swickard, Una Trevelyan, Nick de Ruiz, Jean de Briac, Harry Carter, Nelson McDowell, Lillian Langdon and Jesse Deparnette. A dual role, that of.a man hunted by-an assassin’s band, wnd a man of remarkable likeness who iniper- sonates the first for “adventure’s sake, gives Rawlinson an- opportun- ity for versatile work.” The Delmonte's offering is “Hun- gry Hearts” from the novel of the same title Bryant Washburn and Helen Yer- guson have leading roles. . The story is woven around hum- ble foreigners who come to the United States to seek their fortunes. The immigrants suffer*much dis- illusionment. Freedom, liberty and plenty, are, after all relative terms and it was Miss Yezierska's purpose to delineate this in gripping sitha- tions. “Hungry Hearts” illustfétes the maxim: “He that would be free must fight for his freéiom aitiew every day.” sett 0 ee “+ MJ bss > od Ethel Barrymore's Juliet Outshone: by Mercutio ~ *} By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch...

TAMPA BOARD OF JRADE Street N UNUSUALLY attractive pro- gram has been arranged for this afternoon's popular symphony con- cert, at the Odeon, by Frederick Fischer, who will conduct in the ab- sence of Mr. Ganz. The latter left last night for New York, where he will appear as soloist Wednesday with the City Symphony Orchestra, of which Dirk Foch is director. Today's program fypcludes a work of Mr. Fischer's own composition, the epilogue which he wrote for the historical drama, “Missouri One Hundred Years Ago,” which was prodticed at the Coliseum in Octo- ber, 1921 .This piece will be pre- sented for the first time in purely in- strumental guise, without the cho- ruses and solos of its original form. Two other unfamiliar works are Richard Heuberger’s overture to the pantomime and ballet, “Struwwel- peter,” and Franz Bendel’s musical fairy story after Grimm, “Snow White.” The Scherzo from Dvor- ak’s “New World” symphony will be played, together with “The Dance of the Cammorists,” from Wolf-Ferra- ri's “Jewels of the Madonna.” The soloist is a St. Louisan, Miss Amie Guth Punshon, contralto.

Position of Having, By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, Dec. 30.—When the allied Premiers meet in Paris next Tuesday, they will again attempt to solve the greatest problem before the world—that of German reparations. The dispute over this grave issue has now reached a head, after running from the meeting of the Paris peace conference. In the layman’s nontechnical mind the situation may _ be aptly summed up with this statement: The total reparations Germany must pay have not been definitely fixed. The Berlin Government is in the position of having signed a blank check upon Germany's national re sources ‘and earning powers, with the allies taking every penny available, but without filling in the sum to be finally presented for payment in full. The allies, to all intents and pur- ernment, ‘divided the total repara- poses, have told Germany that if she makes $10 the allies will take $9; if Germany makes $20 the allies will take $19; and if Germany makes $30 the allies will take $29—all as part payment of a sum yet to be de termined. And Germany, figurative- ly, has said: No matter how much I make, the allies’ take all but $1, which is left me to live on. Why work for a higher income? Poincare’s Complaint. “Germany has worn out the pa- tience of her creditors,” Premier Poincare told the French Chamber of Deputies Nov. 17, while on the same day Germany requested fur- ther relief from the reparations bur- den imposed upon her by the allied commission, appointed and acting (about $9,500,000,000), to be issued. “at the latest on Nov. 1, 1921,” also with an interest and sinking fund, and Class “C” bonds to the amount of 82,- 000,000,000 (about $20,500,000,000),. | be delivered to the Reparations CamX mission by May 1, 1921, but 2 8 baa, a sinking fund for their eventual ment in full.

The ultimate kind of conference gave way to the gen- uine peace conference.

The Berlin Government, swamped under a great flood of paper marks and lacking raw ma- terials, begged a real moratorium, barring all cash payments except de- liveries in kind for the devastated areas; a large foreign loan to stab- {lize the paper mark, together with a final settlement among the allies as to the exact total that Germany must pay. The treaty of Versailles left the amount of reparations open. It was to be determined by a Reparations Commission, whose decisions were to be imparted to Germany by May 1, 1921, the amount to be discharged within 30 years. The commission also had the power to meet from time to time to “consider the resources and capacit of Germany to pay.” These provi- sions have led to endless disputes, ‘agreements, sub-agreements and pro- vision agreements, until the repa rations snarl has. become the most complex ever faced by financiers and governments of the world.

Germany announced to the allies last July that she was “sucked dry” and would be unable to continue the payments demanded under the Lon- don ultimatum. The rlin Gov- ‘ernment begged for a moratorium for cash payments over 1928 and 1924, in addition to the last four months of 1922. This the allies, with France and Belgium holding out, refused to grant. However, a ecoficession was made that cash payments should be | held up until a meeting of the al- In consequence of this deadlock. _ the Premiers having adjourned until next Tuesday, in Paris, a new Ger- ‘man plan of reparations has been ‘formulated by the Government cf Chancellor Cuno in Bertin.

In the meantime, Great Britain and France have sought meang 4nancing Germany so that she coull pay her obligations with more éate The chief scheme is the cancellation —or partial cancellation—of huge war debts, owed principaliv to the United States and Great Britain. ‘The British have frequently sugers* ed that they would be willing to can- |cel debts owed them if similar sums were subtracted from the total owed | by Britain to the United States.

There was the stagnation of early 1919. the subsequent post-war boom. which extended into the late spring of 18920, and the collapse which came in the same year. Nev- ertheless, the volume of new flota- tions both here and in Great Britain was distinctly large early in 1322 Railroad Loadings Make History: Prior to this year the greatest per- formance of the country’s railroads in moving freight was that in the fall of 1920. While the movement issues during the past autumn did not pro- | duce a single week that quite touched the best week of 1920, it was remarkable for its sustained character. Thug the normal! seasonal slackening in November and Deoerm- ber was much smaller than usually is the case. ' The performance during these two months exceeded all rec-'| ords, and not merely because of the heavy coal movement, since ship- ments of general merchandise and miscellaneous freight were extraor- dinary. The demonstration of carrv- ing ability was the more remarkable in view of the after-effects of the shopmen’'s strike. Higher Prices for Non-ferrous Metals: Lead and zinc during the year have whown consistent gains, while the advance in silver and tin’ has been slight. Copper prices showed considerable weakness dur- ing the first four months of the vear, but with the reduction of the surplus stocks accumulated in the war period the market for this meta! has greatly improved. The lead and zinc indus- tries have derived considerable bene- fit from the building boom. Great Building Boom: The vaiue. of building permite in 164 repre- sentative cities, as reported by Brad- street's, has risen approximately three-fold as compared with 1914. Cotton Confirm Short Orop: Latest reports on cotton gin- nings have served to prove two things: firet, that the year’s crop will be a short one: and, secon that the idea of a 9,000.000-bale yield, which was entertained during ihe late fall, is erroneous. The final Government crop estimate places the total at slightly less than 10,000,000 | bales and the trade believes that this figure will be approximated. Elim- ination of the 9,000,000-bale crop theory was followed by a distinct reactioin prices, but a substantia] ' | | ; | recovery occurred be fore the close) of the year on the belief that with consumption high a shortage later on is assured. favorable monthir trade balances with Germany averaged respective- ar $18,500,000 and $24,300,000.

From March to September the fig- ures held fairly even, andé in October was S50 conspicuously absent the year before. The value of exports in that month rose to $372.000.000, a figure which ‘was not only larger than for any previous month in the year, or | for that matter than any mofith since | March, 1921, but since December, 1920, it was larger than the figure for the corresponding month of the preceding year. Nv- vember brought still further encour- agement, when the figure for exports stood at $383.000.000, representing a gain of $1 12,000,000 wrer the preced- ing* month and of $89.000.000 over the Same month of 1921. It is of some Significance that the value of exports in November of this year is 56 per cent greater than that for November, 1913. This gain corre- sponds very closely with the éiffer- ence in wholesale price levels in 1818 and 1912 ané effords further evi- Genoe of the trend of trade toward the pre-war status. 1922 York Mreniag came the seasonal improvement that A distinct turn for the better : ’ ' ) 4% cent ér cent. for the first time | *0™ 14% pe to 154% P } ; i i , ‘ Jen Bo er ape By Fee ious Sep.

(Copright, 1922. by the New York Evening Post, Inc.) FOREIGN EXCHANGES SHOW MUCH > tions and International Debts Are Potent Factors. By F. SCHNEIDER JR. ; In several important respects the. past rear has been a notable one! among the foreign exchanges. On the one hand it has seen certain curre such as those of Holland, Sweden and Canada. return to their par value dollars. and has seen others, such as that of Great Britain, | 7 : NHCcIes, | make substantial advances towards par. On the other hand, it has seen the German mark and a few other units make rapid strides towards worthiessness. Clearly, this lack of! uniformity testifies to a correspond- ing lack of uniformity in the trend of financial conditions in different parts of the world Stating the mat- ter in a somewhat it while conditions abroad have on the whole improved, there are special instances in which the processes of disintegration still hold sway. The diversity of trend is not) limited to Burope; it is apparent all over the world.

The general trend has been upward, nevertheless. Sterling Remarkably Steady. Bevond doubt movement of the pound sterling and the mark have been the most interesting and important. Sterling's rise has been remarkable for its steadiness and persistence. Spurts have occurred, as have minor reactions, but the smnalliness of the latter and the flat- ness of the curve on which this ex- change has progressed from $4.21 at the end of 1921 to approximately $4.65 as 1922 draws to a close have. testified both to the strength of the British position and the excellent character of the management given British financial affairs The years sterling is no new development; it really began at the conclusion of the British coal strike in 1921. In moving upward) during thig period the pound has merely reflected a progressive im- provement in Britain's Government finances, in her trade position, and in her standing as a financial center. Thus the budget has been belanoced, to rise in the floating debt has been reduced some £374,000,000 in the year ending Dec. 3, 1922: currency notes out-/ standing have been cut £25.000.000 im the same period, and the Bank of England's reserve ratio« has risen At the same time the United King-| dom’s excess of merchandise im-| ports, which amounted to £669,000,- 000 in 19198, fell to £358,000,000 in| 1920, to £270,000,0006 in 1921, and te £163,000.000 during the first 11 months of 1922.

The rally was a natural one at the season, and ocoincided with a reduction of the excess of British imports @uring February to the extraordinarily low figure of £870.000. It seems probable that this rise stimulated sp long side, since profit-taking reaction of about 1i cents appeared in March. Throughout the late spring ster- ; : the ling acted afmost as if pegged.

During the greater part of that month it held close to $4.45, and in June first to $4.48 and then to $4.51. The month had not, however,. advanced far when the bankers’ committee re- | ported its inability to proceed with plans for a German reparations loan. The ensuing sharp reactions in the mark and the franc apparently ied to profit-taking in sterling; the re- action was not, however, severe, the pound at no time dropping below $4.88.

Two Phases in the Mark. | Turning now to the German mark, ' (that unit has moved in close sym- pathy with the ups and downs of the reparations dispute, being under- ined meanwhilé by general realiza- tion of the significance of Germany's unbalanced budget and her enorm- ous inflation of note circulation. The story of the mark during the year ' divides into two parts: in the first five monfhs. before the breakup of the bankers’ conference. ' and that developing in the ensuiiuc seven months. The first part of the year was a continuation of what nad gone before; that is depreciation but within bounds; the second brought demoralization and disaster—-a fall- ing away of values with which not even the German printing presses could keep step.

Important factors are working in for the decline in grain is now bringing about grain in the past 12 months than at any other time in their history. The actual movement has not shown up in primary markets, but has been distributed around in various ways that it is impossible to trace. At the same time accumulations of sup- plies have been small.

They have mar- keted 65 per cent of their wheat, | Hog supplies are large. ®"4 Should an advance of 10 to 15 cents a bushel it would be a great help | ‘towards putting them on a better basis. be securéd on the Increased Exports. Foreign exchange rates, which were low most of the season, ad- vanced to the highest prices in more than two years near the end of the year, and materially assisted in the foreigners getting more for their money. At the same time’ it- placed many iniporters in an uncomfortable position because of sellers having to compete with those who had se- cured supplies at lower figures. The disposition on the part of foreign buyers is to take supplies as re- quired, and indications point to a4 comparatively smal! carry-over at ithe end of the season. Consumption of corn on farms is enormous. The crop is materially short of last year, and the corn mar- ket is regarded as more of a domestic proposition than in recent years, with not much more than is required for home use and export. There will be competition abroad from Argentine corn later in the season, yet all the | corn that can be shipped abroad will be wanted, according to our view. Consumption of Corn. The corn situation is unusually in‘. teresting from a crop and consump- tion basis. The United States never raises the amount of corn given by the Government report. In 1919 there were 4,000,000 acres in corn that went into silos and on an average of about 29 bushels per acre would total 115,000,000 bushels used that way. In some of the states more than | 8 per cent is used annually for silos. About 420,000,000 bushels is used for, fodder and forage, these uses materi- ally cutting down the commercial! crop. On the basis of 3.000,.000,000- bushel crop. less than 72,500,.000,000 bushels is available for purposes. The big movement of corn comes from Northern Central and Northern lIilinois, Indiana, Central 'a@nd Western Iowa and Eastern Ne- braska. Rye has become a most important grain in recent years. Ten years ago the crop was 35.654,000 bushels. the largest known up to that time. This year it is 80,000,000 bushels was W orid from Te a’ War that rye was imported Germany for while the past two years have wit- nessed large purchases of rye by Germany, which is our best customer.

WHAT VARIOUS INDUSTRIES DID DURING THE PAST YEAR RUBBER—The past year has seen; the an attempt to restore the crude rub- ber industry to normalcy by abnor- mal methods. Whatever may be the final outcome, the immediate ef- fect has been a long-desired increase in price, the latter reaching 27 cents, New York. For the last nine months prices maintained much the same low levels existing throughout 1921, hav- ing fallen from 21 cents on Jan. 1. 1922. to 15 cents by March 1, and continuing near the latter level un- til Oct. 1. The advance in exchange rate helped some —Fred FP. Peter- son. RAILWAY EQUIPMENT — With- in the next 60 or 90 days profit and loss’ Statements and balance sheets will tell the story of the railway equipment and supply business for 1922.* It is pretty safe to predict in the smeantime that the results of the year's operations will, generally speaking, be unsatisfactory. This prediction is made in epite of the fact that purchases of freight cars have been the largest in five rears, and, in fact. well up to the 20-year ‘average. Purchases of locomotives and passenger cars, furthermore, have also been fairly large. This ap- parent anomaly is explained by the fact that large orders are not imme- diately reflected in plant operations and profits. Between the placing of orders and the actual! delivery of the materials and supplies from the plants there is a lapse of several! months to a year—Robert P. La- mont. president American Steel Foundries. AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENTS —Industry finally turns the corner. Substantial gain in business in au- tumn of 1922.

MEAT PACKING—Durirg the year 1922 the packing industry got back to approximately normal condi- tions for the first time in severa! years. This does not mean that it thrived or that substantial profits were made. It is understood that for at least some of the more important companies results for 1322 will be better than those for 1921.—L. D. H. manager Commercial Re- search Department, Swift & Co.

WOOoOL—In Summing up the course of business for cloth and clothing manufacturers during 1922 “-- it may be said that when the bal- president Armour the pres-. last two months may their business as a whole be described as being on a normal basis. The change for the better during the past 60 days, however, affords ground for a more optimistic feeling with re-/| gard to the future, and the prospects | | which 139,000,000 yen represented for the representative establish- ments during 1923 may be rated as go0o0d.—Herbert E. Peabody, _ Ss Guerin & Co. SILK—Those who depend on sales of silks had rough weather in the first half of the passing year. They have prospered in the last six months, and the industry as a whole is stronger now than it was a year ago. failures among the mills. Some try- ing situations have been relieved. Manufacturers and jobbers have liquidated their excessive stocks and there is no longer the necessity of selling below cost in order to pay bills or to avoid closing down com- pletelr. The retailers, still buying from hand to mouth, have done a very large business in silks and can undoubtedly look back on 1922 as a satisfactory year. The profit sit- uation is very different with the manufacturers and with the job- bers. It is doubtful if the mills av- eraged a full run in the first halt of the year on 40 per cent of the broad silk looms. That was a lean six months for profits and production. The iast half of the year showed a steadily increasing activity. Prob- ably 20 per cent more silk machin- | on | ery is running full today than June 1. A few guesses estimate present operation at 60 per cent of the full capacity of the Broad sitk looms, but many estimates place i* as low as 50 per cent.—Lincoln Cromwell, William Iselin & Co. ELECTRIC UTILITIES—With an output of approximately 51,.000,000,- 000 kilowatt hours and with $750.000.000 raised for refunding, new construction, extensions and betterments, the electric light and power companies of the country during 1922 continued the steady. march of past 15 years. | continues to be disquieting, Abbott condition of several* banks cabled, adding that the recent tend- ency toward amalgamation of small- er banking institutions showed the efforts being made by individual banks to avoid difficulties. “A large number of business insti- in capital.” | November, Hecording to the cable- | gram, which predicted that union tutions,” Abbott reported, “are seri- ously handicapped by their past loss- es which have been carrfed forward until, in many cases, they amount to more than three-fourths of the paid- Unrest and strikés prevailed in strength in Japan would assert itself in future because of its gradual con- solidation of the various small un- ions into a single large organization.

Should a future depression entrain the industry be- fore it succeeds in working off the burden of its top-heavy stocks the results will be disastrous in the ex- treme. Yet optimism in’the indus- try looks to an early shortage to cor- rect the excesses of an over-supply that, in the face of vigorous de- mands has built up inventories with a value in excess of three-quarters of a billion dollars, reckoned at de- preciated prices now current. The supply of crade petroleum at present writing is approximately 1,900,000 barrels 2 day. Of this vol- ume, about 1,650,000 barrels come from the oll fields of the United States, while about 250,000 barreis are imported from Mexico.: Con- sumption is running between 1,600,- 000 and 1,700,000 barrels daily.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.— Young | America took possession of the na- ‘tional capital last week ahd all so- cial events hinged on - affairs for sub-debs and the collegians home for the holidays. The one ball during the week at which adults put in their appearance was the Children’s Country Home affair, to which the older persons came merely as chap- erones. although some of them re- mained to dance. Mrs. Breckinridge Long of Missouri! was one of the managers of the ball and one of the enthusiastic dancers was Mrs. John B. Henderson, widow of the former Senator from Missouri, who brought (her granddaughter, Miss Beatruce Hendersan, home for the holidays from the Foxcroft School at War- renton, Va. Speaking of Mrs. Henderson, there | is a story in Washington that this devotee of vegetarianism for so many forsaken this diet This is causing much for Mrs. Henderson for the leader of vegetarians hare her meatless dinners have le: noted for vears. She has made man: converts to this doctrine, notably the jete Wu Ting Fang of China, while he was Minister to America. oe years, has interest here. vears has peer rn Mrs. Calvin Coolidge was amused | recently when she heard the follow- ‘ing remarks over the telepgone in | her apartment, by ber youngest son, i3 years old: ) “Yes, this is Calvin Coolidge Jr. You want me to come to a dinner | ‘dance for young people. Oh, I am veryisorry but my brother and I are’ not going anywhere these holidays. ; Ve are resting from our studies.” When he hung up the receiver he laconically remarked “Girls” to his® amused mother and resumed his im- | portant task of popping corn before | the big open fireplace.

The display will be on a more elaborate scale than ever before. There will be 79 makes of cars fa the palace, with an accessory List of nearly 400, thus making the show 'the biggest in the history of the au- ‘tomobile industry, not only because of the number of exhibitors, but 'also because of the quality of the ‘exhibits. Arrangements have been made to provide space for more than 350 individual car models. Manufacturers have spared no ex- | pepse to get the very best ready for | plete. the annual exhibition with the result ‘that the public will see an array of | cars such as has never been gath- | ‘erea under one roof befdre. Com-_| ‘petition in automobile building wits | never greater, and for this reason | |'more individuality is being built) j tate cars. It % expected that some | of the body designs and _ color schemes that will be offered gee? cause a sensation. | The display this year will occupy | the lower four floors of the palace, | an area equal to four city blocks, | and every nook and cranny not | ffeeded for aisle space will be crowd- ed with exhibits. The first two floors will be devoted entirely to cars, with perhaps three or four manufacturers showing on the third | floor. The remainder of the third floor and all of the fourth will be) filled with accessories.

GASOLINE WASTE RESULT OF POOR CARBURETION Prof. Geonge Granger Brown of the University of Michigan recently conducted a series of tests to deter- mine the efficiency of carburetors on Ford cars. Prof. Brown estates in his article published in the Journal of Indus- trial and Engineering Chemistry that a reasonable mileage on a Ford tour- ing car should be 24.5 miles per gal- lon. However, he further states that the average throughout is not more than 17.5 miles. Prof. Brown's arti- cle also states that there is an ap- proximate loss of $100,000,000 per year to car owners through improper carburetion. A peculiar coincident {n connection with this statement has been recent tests made with a Ford car by the Stromberg Motor Devices Co., using one of their new carbufetors and hot spots in a test observed by officials of the American Automobile Associa- tion, in which ordinary 657-test gas- oline was used, and the remarkable mileage 6f 651.6 miles obtained on one gallon. The company further states that on 1000 carburetors sold for Ford cars the average was slightly in ex- cess of 31 miles, which would mean almost double the mileage being ap- parently obtained by Ford owners today. Stromberg carburetors are distrib. | uted in St. Louis by the Equipment Service Co., 2631 Locust street, who are also distributers for Vista bat-, terles and Gabriel snuffers.

MER ROUGE, La., Dec. 30. the northeastern part of the State of Louisi- ana ties Morehouse Parish, a county of con- sle wealth in cotton and timberland. In | parish is the modest little town of Mer with about 600 inhabitants, nestling the towering pines growing along the of small lakes common to that State. The miry thereabouts is level and marshy and there are no bayous there are swamps. Bastrop, eight miles west of Mer Rouge, is he county seat of Morehouse Parish and head- rters of Morehouse Kian No. 34, Knights of Ky Klux Kian. At the head of this klan is 5 Exalted Cyclops in the person of Capt. J. K. ith, upon whom the eyes of the nation are . for some of the citizens of his Invisible re Rave been charged by “°v. Parker and law officers of the State with murder in first degree. ’ But Capt. Skipwith is not worrying; not so you can notice it. He has stated for pub tion that Gov. Parker is, nothing more than braying jackass. Just at. He has pro- imed that he is the Exalted Cyclops of More mee Parish and that Parker is only the Gov- mor whose power will be set at nought by the mited Cyclops. Sie has announced that Gov. Parker is , fed straight for the penitentiary,” and that Exalted CyGlops is going to put him there. further says, by way of emphasis, that the of Louisiana is “a contemptible wind- : : and cannot do anything in the inves "tigation of certain murders that have been laid at the gates of citizens of the Invisible Empire of Morehouse Parish. — e Neither Is the Governor Worried. : » Gut heither is Gov. Parker fretting. He is al! miles and good humor. In the face of the chal- of the Exalted Cyclops, he has managed to fe in jail within the last week two citizens the Invisible Empire against whom ke has ed the charge of first degree murder, and is going further. He says that he will un- Mask the Exalted Cyclops and his klan in the /Ptate of Louisiana, tq which Capt.

No one in /Mer Rouge could be found who would spehk ill of either man, and even some of the eminent ‘Citizens of Capt. Skipwith’s Invisible Empire ‘aed that Danie] was an estimable young man.

But Daniel and Richard were abducted by | men known to be members of the Ku lux Klan, who murdered them and sunk their jes in Lake La Fourché after subjecting their . to unspeakable torture. Their bones broken and their bodies mutilated with While they lived. Nevertheless the Ex- alted Cyclops of Morehouse Klan No. 34 explains that they were lawless scoundrels of which the parish is well rid and had only been “spirit- ed away” by friends of Dr. McKoin. The people of Mer Rouge and Bastrep had been friends for more than a hundred years. The young people of both towns attended each other’s social affairs. A spirit of reciprocits actuated the business men for the general good of the parish. They had always lived in neigh borly contentment, with never a forbidding cir. cumstance to threaten the spirit of good will that bound them together, until the Ku Klux Klan sent an organizer to that parish a few years ago. Capt. Skipwith, like the Klan itself. newcomer to Morehouse Parish, having settled there less than two years ago. He\is 75 years old. and in bygone years had operated steamboats on the little rivers of the interior of Louisiana. Hence the “captain.” He is of medium stature. has calm blue eyes and speaks with definite self assurance and authority smacking of the im- perious. He had come to Morehouse Parish as a cot- tonseed broker and was gne of the first mem- bers of Morehouse Klan. He worked hard to in- crease the membership and before long was elected Exalted Cyclops. In Greek mythology, Cyclops was a giant with one all-séeing eve center of his forehead and his function was orge thunderbolts. It is not known that the Imperial Wizard of the In- visible Empire of the Knights of the. Ku Klux Klan expected Capt. Skipwith to forge any thunderbolts, but it appears from the news of was 32 —_ SACRIFF FRED CARPENTER, MOPEHOUSE PARISH LOUISIANA. the last few weeks that ‘someone in Morehouse Morehouse Kian grew in numbers until Ty- Parish connected with the alan aid no less than clops Skipwith counted about 500 Klansmen. and that. as a A then he began to look about him for ways to em , a CAPTAIN JK. SKIPWITH EXALTED | Cyclops ploy this great force. With permission of Sheriff Carpenter, he would head bands of Kliansmen on nocturnal enterprises to detect moonshiners. vootleggers and other citizens sought to evade or violate the law, and eertain of the citi- zens of his Empire even went so far as to drag a 15-year-old girl from her home, after beating her mother, who resisted them. They sent the girl to a town in Arkansas with the admonition never to return to Louisiana. The Cyclops on another occasion led about a hundred Kiansmen armed with shotguns to cap- ture a farmer suspected of making whisky, but the farmer put them to flight with his rifle. On other occasions the Klansmen, acting as deputies of Sheriff Carpenter. invaded the homes of ne- groes and some white farmers at night to search for whisky, though in no instance did they have search warrants. w bo these tac- fear- The people of Mer Rouge observed tics of the klan with increasing alarm, ing for the morale of the negro laborers on the plantations around their town. One of the men who was outspoken against these outr@ges was Daniel, and one night a band of hooded men vis- ited the negro families on his plantation in search of illicit whisky. Next day Daniel waited On Capt. Skipwith at Bastrop and proclaimed in unmistakable terms that the next klansman that placed his foot on a Daniel plantation would do so at his peril. Shortly after that Dr. B. M. McKoin, captain of the klan at Mer Rouge and trusted lieutenant of Capt. Skipwith, reported to the Exalted Cyclops that he was fired on one night in his automobile > ka while returning to Mer Rouge from a call. An in- vestigation was made but the blame for the al- lezged shooting was not fixed. Dante! and Richard were accused in rumors emanating from Bastrop, but they. established nlibis and were absolved. Then Dr. McKoin an- nounced that he began receiving anonymous let- ters signed “Not Your Friend,” and threatening his life. Idle conversations accused Daniel of this also. Did Not Take the Klan Seriously. | Daniel and Richard and their chums, among whom may be mentioned the Andrew brothers, Karl and W. C., were wont to express amusement at the charges of the klansmen and to “josh” them ebout the weird ritualistic requirements for members. Earl Andrews had been a member of the kian, but dropped his membership when it became ap~ parent, he said, that the organ on was becom- ing the cause of ill-will among the citizens of the two towns, as did a few other klansmen at Mer Rouge. This dissatisfaction at Mer Rouge was believed at Bastrop to be more of Daniel's work, and as Richard seemed to be his constant com- penion, he also came within the disapprobation of the klan. Then came the fateful day, Aug. 24. kt was one of those sunny Southern days. There was to be a barbecue and baseball game at Bastrop to at- tract a crowd for a discussion of good roads.

PAYNE —THE PASTOR— a Special Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. LOUISVILLE, Kry., Dec. 30. ‘year ago a man sat in a courtroom here #® on trial for his life. He was charged with ‘ , and the shadow of the electric aiready was looming just beyond the 2 for there were no witnesses for him to combat the savage attacks of his prosecutors. “Send him to the chair,” they were saying to “the jury. “He is a jealous brute.

He twiddiled his Magers and twisted his hat brim and crossed uncressed his legs while he listened to the Prosecution’s pjeas for a vengeful vindication of » the law. There was a reason for his nervous- | Mess. He held within him a story that, if told, “would change entirely the course of action— that might save this man from the chair—yet he @ifnot utter a word to indicate to anyone what "he knew. The attorneys concluded their arguments afd the jurors retired. Soon they refurned and every | 8? strained to catch the verdict. It was “guilty,” and sentence of death was pronounced. The minister stole from the room and almost Tan down the steps of the building. Still he kept his lips closed and they remained | Gosed until he broke his silence recently to "become the star witness for that condemned man " &t bis second trial. The minister was the Rev. Robert Lee Payne. ~The prisoner was Walter P. Stamp, accused at Killing W. Smith Russell, wounding his wife, Effie Russell, and firing at their six-year- oid daughter as the three were riding in their Suitomobile on one of Louisville’s crowded boule- on- June 1, 1921. , od 4a Unusual Phases of the Case _| Both trials of Stamp were among the most there was almost a total lack of evi- the defendant, the second brought out of testimony as sensational as it was Legal talent engaged in a bitter struggle for wht days and the preacher's story provoked a of criticism, but when the jury returned verdict it was “guilty of voluntary man- Maughter,” and carried a sentence of 10 years’ ment.

Get the police.” The report became general about town that Stamp was the slayer, but no action to bring about his arrest was taken. The next day Stamp wrote a letter to the Ceurier-Journal, a daily newspaper, purporting to be a reply to the rumors and denying. that he was guilty. After another day’s liberty, however, he walked into the city hall past mumerous policemen and surrendered to the chief of de- tectives. - Then the OCourierJournal got busy with a campaign against the laxity of enforcement of the criminal laws. A series of articles was pub- lished to show how frequently murderers were being freed in the criminal court by various devices and legal technicalities in spite of strong evidence against them. It also was pointed out how hung jurtes in many cases resulted in the liberating of guilty persons. State brought in its witnesses, drew from them a volume of evidence and the final argument was made. The attorney appointed to defend Stamp was able to do but little against the mass of evidence on the other side for. there were no witnesses tor the defense. Throughout the trial’the Rev. Mr. Payne sat in the courtroom silent, although he knew facts which, it later developed, would have altered the jury’s judgment. He did not know the real rea- son for the sorry attempt at a defense. As far as he was @ware at that time, the prisoner was already on his way to the electric chair. Still he sald nothing. Court Grants Him New Trial Defendant Rushed to Trial Considerable sentiment was aroused, with the result that when a continuance of Stamp’s case was sought in order to construct a defense for him, it was refused by the Judge, who promptly set an early date for the trial and declared that the case would be disposed of then and there whether the defense liked it or not. The defense’s attorney insisted that he could not be read¥. He Most of his friends gave up hope of further action in his behalf, believing him to be certain to be electrocuted. In the meantime, however, Stamp’s attorney had been busy digging up wit- nesses and constructing a formidable defense. He filed a petition for a new trial, stating among other things that he could produce four wit- nesses who would testify that Stamp was not at the scene of the crime, but had been seen else where at the time the killing occygrred. His statement impressed the Court. The case went back for a second trial. When the second trial opened spectators noted with some astonishment that Stamp’s plea- of el ee — Mrs. Eva Stamp it was brought about by a peculiar chain of cir- cumstances. Stamp, it was charged, had lain in wait in his automobile, knowing the route to be taken by Russell and his family om an afternoon ride would bring them past hi... When their car passed he dashed out in pur- suit. Crowding their machine into the curb, it was alleged, he shot Russell to death at the wheel, wounded Mrs. Russel] near thé left eye and fired at the little girl. Witnesses of the shooting said that then sped away, but, not before he was recognized As bystanders ran to the relief of the victims, Mrs. Russell was declared to have said, “Walter he had been unable to locate material witnesses to bear out the defense theory he was planning, so he decided upon a shrewd course of action. He knew that, with the defense he was able to build up at the moment, the chances to save his client from the electric chair were slim. His strategic move was to maneuver to let the pros- ecutors do their worst and then get a reversal in the Court of Appeals and thereby a new trial which would come up after he had gathered his forces for a proper defense. We instructed his client to stand fest and let events take their course. When the case came up’ he refused to proceed with it and the Judge appointed an attorney to represent the prisoner, A jury was selected. The and Son, and Mrs. W. Smith Russell and Daughter, Catherine. 10t guilty” made in the petition for a new trial had been changed to “emotional insanity” “self- defense” and the “unwritten law.” The defense however, had a still greater surprTS® to spring with the minister’s tale. This was kept secret as long as possible and offered as the climax of the testimon;. Stamp’s story was that he had brought his wife and 11-year-old son to Louisville so that the boy might receive a better education. They had moved into a duplex apartment, the other side of which was occupied by the Russelis. It-was not jong, he said, before his wife and Russell became infatuated with each other and Mrs. Russell appeared to encourage t rela- tions. In fact, Mrs, Russell bad coax bis wife to leave him and sue for a divorce, Stamp testified. One day when he returned from his office, be related, he heard voices in the apartment as he approached. Looking in, he declared, he saw Russell and Mrs. Stamp sitting upon a sofa with their arms around each other while Mrs. Russell stood by thém telling them how to make love irresistibly. The spooners fled, he said, when he entered. Deat WALTER P. STAMP —THE SLAYER— had shown thgt Russell was tnarmed shot while clutching Stamp denied this, declaring reaching for a pistol when he As to the alibi he bad mentioned in he said, that was all a fake, devised name. brought to light. “We will bring into this court a minister God who will startle you with his Stamp’s attorney was | when Payne entered, “and you must believe The minister took the stand. me oe ’ two nights before the tragedy, he with a minister, had bared | troubles, relating how the Russells had persuaded his wife to leave him.

The game ts progressing amicadiy. The opening f rots bridge, a game already fruitful in bilder starts with “two spades.” The nert player - says “I double.” His partner looks at him blankly, hesitates and finally tets the bid stand. Recrimine tone follow. “I meant that for a takeout. I never take a doudie of two.” Bitter arguments follow. To eettte the question, here is an authoritative article by Wilbur 0. Whitehead, who is credited with hav- ing invented the informatory negative double. Hav- ing studied the game scientifically for years, and being the author of several books on the subject, among them “Auction Bridge Standards,” Mr. White- kead’s opinion may be taken ae definite and final. Furthermore, as director of the Knickerbocker Whist ‘Club, at 26 West Fortieth street, New York City, where, according to general optnion, the dest bridge in the Gty is played, he has had most unusucl oppor tunities of testing his theories. By WILBUR C. WHITEHEAD HE negative double in auction has come o stay, not only because it adds greatly to the interest of auction, but also be- cause it adds at least 25 per cent to partnership efficiency. Instead of op- posing this popular and practical inno- vation, players should seek a clear un- derstanding of its principles. The negative double, or at least the negative suit aouble was originated by the writer. Its develop- ment has come about gradually. Years of observation and analysis were necessary before the principles gov- erning the negative suit and no-trump doubles in all their variations, together with those governing their proper response by partner, were clearly determined. These principles I will endeavor to set forth briefly. The cbject of a negative double, whether suit or no- trump, is to develop, if possible, by forcing partner to bid, the best bid for game between the two hands. {t follo*s, logically, therefore, that its primary in- ference must be that doubler is trying for a game bid, spades, hearts or no-trump. To have a practical working value, an inference in auction must be more specific. Wherever possible, a bid or double should have but one meaning. To arrive at one meaning for a negative double we must take into consideration the following factors: First, the fact that a negative double forces partner to bid, notwithstanding his hand may be weak or worthless, or that suit bid in response to double may be one of but four cards, weak or lacking in top honors. Second, the fact that partner is rarely justified in bidding two no-trumps in response to a double of one no-trump—experience has proved this to be a losing bid—or of bidding one no-trump in response to a double of a suit, unless holding two or more stoppers in suit doubled, in preference to a suit of four or more cards, and particularly a major suit. Third. the fact that in response to double the part- ner will or should: (a) if holding two major suits of four or more cards, call the higher ranking suit (spades) first, regardless usually of greater top strength of lower ranking suit (hearts) unless lower ranking suit is the longer suit; or (b) if holding a minor and a major suit of four or more cards, call the major suit first, regardless usually of greater top @trenzth .or length of minor suit; or (c) if holding two minor suits of four or more cards, call the high- er ranking suit (diamonds) first, provided lower ranking suit (clubs) is mot considerable stronger in top honors or the longer suit. Analyzing the foregoing factors, it becomes clear that the specific inference to be drawn from a nega- tive Goubie of any bid other than spades is that adoubicer must expect and therefore must be prepared for a spade bid however weak, or, if spades is the bid doubled, for a heart bid. Players should thoroughly understand that the fore- going precise inference, popularly known as the “spade convention,” is a natural development of the negative double; that it must not be regarded as in any sense arbitrary, for the reason that this would be the logical inference of players thoroughly ground- ed in the fundamentals of auction. Also, that the rules governing the requirements for negative doubles, = PAGE TWO SUNDAY MAGAZINE - erarmeeen : —— > as NE eS a 2 A process for seasoning wood, gives results that otherwise would oir years, is said to have been invented @&@ consists of subjecting the wood to | of air containing ozone. 7 s * A fossil of dogwood flower was rec in rocks which show that it bloomed passenger.

On Sundays and if my leisure hours I took long walks or visited the museum and library.

As the months slipped by. | found that my expendi- tures could well be kept within the above figures: that my savings remained the same, sometimes being aug- mented by a dollar or so. During a vacation I was able to earn a littie extra money. When the new year dawned, certainly a new year for me. I found that my savings bank balance amounted to $557.

PAGE SEVEN man more clever at this in the industry: The second method of “tricking” settings, the use of a painting made on plate glass or compo, is very similar in opera- tion to the first. Im this case it is decided, as in the first, just what portions of the set will be “covered” by the action. This pertion is then designed and erected. A piate of clear glass is set up between the camera and the built part. and on this plate marked out the general lines of the setting desired. “Over these lines is painted the complete set. leav- *ing clear. of course. the portion represented by that part built. This method is. in the very mature of it. far more complicated than the first. and depends en- tirely. it might be said, upon the skill in perspective drawipfg of the artist. For, where the worker in min- lature has been able to do his work to an exact scale, in,painting to perspective no scale can be absoiutely exact. and the accuracy is determined only by the artist's eccuracy of sight. “Again. in the work with miniatures, it is necessary to match the lighting of the two pieces. In the use of paintings, this lighting must be stimulated by grada- tions in the shading of pigments. With the miniatures, if the lichts were directed on both parts from the same direction. the shadows naturally fell alike, but on the painting. since there can be no natural shadows, every shadow must be calculated from the supposed angie of light; mass of object and distance. “The angie of light varies,_obviously, at different hours of the day, and as a painting ts, more obviously even, unvarying. it is necessary to photograph the set at the hour when the light will strike the full-size part at exactly the same angle as in the painting. or otherwise. to light it artificially. “It is. moreover. far more a task to give to a paint- depth. of mass and material, than it is to a miniature. Yet. on the other hand. I am convinced that the work of an artist. at times, can have a charm, an atmosphere. that even fhe finest reality cannot approach; the touch, the individuality of the artist. “Looking at the third picture, the scene Chinese. No migiature, however, cleverly made, could have hoped to duplicate the delicate detail of this painting, its softness of line and of key. This is a setting by Mr. Walter Hall. who. before his picture connections, was a well-known scenic artist. I am told that he holds patent rights in this and in foreign countries for this process. Aside from his legal rights, he is, I believe, well protected. for few men are there, skilled in both art and mechanics. who could hope to achieve as _ Continued on Page 18.) f

Millions have been playing it. Until this Willesden incident nobody got into court because of his—or her, for some of the ladies also play beaver—participation in the new national sport. The theory in explanation of the Willes- den Magistrate's severity which has the highest degree of popular support throughb- out England is that that serious-minded of- ficfal feared the crime of lese majeste might eMsue unless a stop were put to the uni- versal spread of the contagion. Already George Bernard Shaw had been beavered from all sides; he had, in fact. been digni- fied with the unofficial title of King Beav- er of the Realm. If this George, then why mot another George—he of the royal dig- nity. notoriously knoWn to be quite eligible to the ranks of beaverism’? Yea, George the Fifth.

Here's the latest been warm friends: they became a parted pair who spake not each to the other as they passed by: for many months the feud had waxed..and both peer and painter had been quoted as having uttered, ip the clubs and elsewhere. sundry bitter sentiments regarding each other. But when Mr. John received that post card his ice meited. He was not so dignified as to be immune from merriment, even merriment at his own expense. He read the message and smiled betwixt or amongst hic beard. Well. after all. Milord was not so mad as be had pretended: he was but human, and this post eard was an olive leaf brought to the studio by the dove of peace. Straightway sat him down Mr. Augustus John and indited an invitation for Milord to come to the artist's home for dinner. But. alas’! when the invitation reached the peer of the realm that dignitary stroked his smooth chin and pondered deeply. After this pondering he sat Aim down and indited a curt buat courteous declination of the dinner invitation. It was not until he saw repro- duced in a London newspaper a facsimile of both ob- verse and reverse cides of the post card that he under- stood why his old friend the enemy had invited him to dinner. “FPorgery'™ quoth Milord “Some bloody idiot's feeble effort at a joke' Thfs looks lite my signature. all right, but some other hand wrote it.” Again let us quote The Elderly Gent “In our day and generation we have witnessed sundry similar ebul- litions cf wit on the part of the populace: ‘Get your ‘air cut’: “Where did you get that ‘at” “Ow's your fa- ther” and such like slogans each had their little day and died. and so far as we can remember nobody as fined for indulging in them. Furthermore, the oricins of them were obvious. or at any rate easy to trace. But over the ghastly cat-cali ‘Peaver!’ a cloud of mystery would appear to have settled. Who invented it” And what philosophy of fancy or lampoonery lies be- hind it? “Though world-wide fame and. it may be, even 2 job im the halls or in the movies awaits him, the in- ventor has carefully refrained from coming forward. Perhaps he remembers what happened to the large number of gentlemen who claimed to have invented the ‘tanks. And when it comes to origins, the learned. for their part. seem utterly at a loss to help us. We all know. says one pundit, that ‘beaver meant the lower part of a helmet. and he goes on to inform us that in ‘Hiewatha’ Longfellow has a passage ending ‘Made him king of all the beavers.” ™ Though The Elderty Gent misses the opportunity to say 20, it appears obvious that the beaver game must have been derived from the description he mentions of the lower part of the helmet. Beaverism being con- fined to the lower part of the buman physiognomy, countenance, face, mug or bean. why should anybody seek further to find the genesis of the popular game that has made Merry England merrier this year” .

The Itbustrat- ed Sunday Her- ald of Lendon has a sprichtly staff contributor who signs him- self “The Elder- ly Gena t.” Whether he has whis*ers is not known on this side of the At- lantic, but he is suspected of be- ing at least a semi-beaver. like Lioyd George. Bonar Law and certain other celebrated Brit- ishers who wear hairs just above the mouth. Let us quote The Elderly Gent: “For a good many months past. idiots and infants with nothing better to do have played what is known as the ‘beaver came’ to their beartse content. It has been impossible in Enecland for a person possessed of a beard to put his head out of doors without beme assailed immediately by mocking shouts of “Yah. beaver’ and a post card with this objurgation upon fit has actually been received by Mr. Augustus John.” Mr. Augustus John. be it Fnown, is nome other than the famous portrait peinter who some years back painted what he regarded as “® portrait of a distinguished peer of the realm. The peer. when the completed work was offered to him at the artist's studio, pulled out his jackknife and decapitated the picture. By cutting off his own head. as depicted om the canvas. Milord indicated to Mr. Augustus John that the latter didn't know how to paint a peer as a peer ap- pears. The decapitator. let it be remembered, is no beaver. Well, shortly before the Willes- den Court established the prece- dent -of fining players of the beaver game, Mr. John. who has whiskers enough to turn the gentiest barber-tnto 2 maunder- ing madman, received a post card signed with the name of the peer who had cut off his own r song: ' We cannot play at beaver now. ° In one-time Merry Enceland.

But the other noted that there had been a marked hesitation before the word ‘yet’ and he knew that sooner or later young Joe Holiesi. black sheep of the minister's family, would have to prove where he Was at the time that his father had come to his death. “Within the hour the entire story of the crime had swept through the village and there were many who ~ were of the same opinion which the Chief of Police feared to phrase aloud. It wasn't pleasant to think of the son of one of the most respected clergymen in Hampshire breaking into the house im the dead of night with the intention of stealing the valuables that belonged to his father’s church and much less pleasant was the thought that he might have been responsibie for the shot that ended Dr. Hollest's life. But, as the police agreed that the whole affair had been carried through by someone who was familiar with the floor plan of the rectory and the precise location of the storeroom where the plate was kept. what other ¢x- planation was there” “The two servants were old and highly respected. They had been in the service of the family for years and had had abundant opportunity for theft if they had been so inclined, while only his father’s reputation and in- fimence had saved Joe Holiest from prison upon more than one occasion. The last time. scarcely more than a week previous to the night of the murder, young Holiest had been caught trying to pass a check, to which he had forged his father’s name, upon the local bookmaker, and the scandal which ensued had been hushed up only in so far as its official character was concerned. “Where be had gone or where he was on the night of his father’s murder ad one knew, but the police made no secret of the fact that they intended to find out. and the first step toward a solution of the mys- tery was the sending out of a full description of Joseph Hollest. with a request for his immediate detention and return to Frimiey. “This was the state of the case when Inspector Kendall detailed by the Criminal Investigation De- partment of Scotland Yard to an investigation of the double crime. made his appearance in the village and - requested full details of the matter from the Chief of Police. “ “it looks bad for the boy,” Kendall admitted, as the man on the opposite side of the desk ceased talking. “Have you been able to get any track of him” “None at all.” was the reply. “We've senf out a de- scription of him. together with his photograph. thouch, and it oughtn't to be long before we have some word.’ “*You've examined the premises thoroughly, con- tinued the man from Scotland Yard. ‘Were there any fingerprints er footprints that might prove valudbie” “*No fingerprints, Imspector.

Outside, though, there's some- thing that looks li*e a trail leadin’ toward the woods of the Fleming estate. We've put boxes over several of the best of the prints and you can look at ‘em when you go up there.’ “Kendall nodded his approval and his shaggy eye- brows almost met as he turned his attention to another phase of the affair—the question of Mrs. Hollest and her strange cry.. ““*Have you been able to get anything out of her” he asked. “ “The doctor says she can't be disturbed for several days, answered the Chief. ‘She's in what he calis a “highly high-sterical™ condition. She's over at the hos-— pital now, with a nurse by her side all the time. but all she does is to groan and mutter something about a “green flash.” ’ “But what does she mean by that?’ Kendall demand- ed, sharply. ‘It must have something to do with the Filling of her husband. which. you say. she seems to have witnessed from the foot of the stairs. Have you got any theory about it* ““No, sir, I haven't,” was the frank admission. ‘but if you'd like I'd be giad to zo over to the Hollest house with you and let you see the place the killin’ took place for yourself. Then maybe you'd be able to find some answer for what seems to me like th’ ravings of a woman who's lost her mind throuch fear.’ “There's little doubt that Mrs. Hollest has lost her mind temporarily, the Inspector remarked. as he reached for his hat and prepared to accept the Chief's offer of guidance toward the scene of the crime, “but the repetition of that single apparently meaningiess phrase must have something to do with it.’ “Upon reaching the house the Inspector became gal- vanized at once into the man of action. Entering through the window which had been broken open ' on the night of the mur- der.

With her purchase, Molly plunged back into the storm, turned toward the dim park space, and bumped vio- lently into the Little Red Doctor. Gently releasing her, he caught a glimpse of her face. Its aspect was not re- assuring. Young women who come bflundering out of drug stores with that expression and make for the nearest quiet spot not infrequently cause needless trouble to the busy authorities. Opening Schoenkind’s door, the Little Red Doctor thrust into the-.aperture his earnest face and this no less earnest query: “What'did that last customer buy?” “@arbolic,” replied Young Irvy, light-heartedly. “For adog. Astif it hurt much.” | The door slammed with much the effect of an oath. and the questioner sprinted for the park. Being wise in the way of human misery, he knew that mysterious in- stinct of suicides which guides them. no matter what their chosen method of self-destruction, toward water. Therefore he took the shortest route for Our Fountain. Young Irvy’s customer sat huddled on a bench at the water’s edge. The bottle was in her- hand. uncorked. She had just made a trial of the liquid on her hand. and was crying softly because it burned. As the Little | Red Doctor’s grip closed on, her wrist, she gasped and sought to raise the drug to her lips. “Drop it!” said her captor, in the voice of authority. She obeyed. Put she misinterpreted the authority. “Is it to jail yell be taking me?” she asked, despair- ingly. The soft appeal of the voice, with its faint touch of the brogue, shook the Littie Red_Doctor. _One glance at the piteously lined young face conquered him.

Exploits paces toward the door and then took up his position on the precise spot which the Chief of Police indicated. “*She must have come down those steps,’ mused the man from Scotland Yard, ‘probably only a little way behind her husband. He turned here and went toward the storeroom, his bare feet making no noise on the carpeted floor. We'll suppose that he reached the door before the man—or men—inside realized that they had been discovered. Something alarmed them and, turning’——- Kendal) broke off abruptly. ‘How many shots did you say were fired?’ . “*T heard three,’ was the answer. “Two loud ones and one—th’ one in th’ middle—sharper and not s0 loud.’ “ “The first and the third, then, evidently came from Hollest’s old-fashioned, heavy-caliber revolver. The short, sharp shot in the middle was from the .32-caliber gun that killed him. Yes,’ he went on, pointing first to the wall just inside the closet and then to the ceil- ing over his head, ‘the clergyman-fired twice. missing both times. But his second shot was involuntary, caused by his forefinger tightening upon the trigger as he fell backward. He missed his man with his first shot, probably because of his nervousness, was killed by the pointblank fire of the .32 from the closet and, as his arm flew ‘upward, his revolver exploded again, the bullet burying itself above his head, there,’ and he pointed to a barely discernible hole directly above him. “ ‘Now,’ he continued, ‘Mrs. Hollest was standing at the foot of the steps during all this time, or, at least, we have good reason for thinking she was there. The hall was dark’ “*Pitch dark,’ muttered the Chief. ‘I had to use my pocket light in order to see a thing.’ “Then,” and there was the hint of a thrill in Ken- da} ‘8 voice as he spoke, ‘Mrs. Hollest's cry about the green flash must have referred to something that she saw during the three momentary revolver flashes. Or, since her husband had nothing green about him at the time, during the two that came from his gun. “A flash of green in the night!” she cried, so whatever she saw seemed to leap out of the darkness as the clergyman pulled the trigger.’ “*But. what covld it havé been?. The man couldn't have been wearing a green suit.’ “*No, but there are such things as green caps,’ the Inspector declared, and, turning, he made his way to- ward the rear of the house, pausing only long enough to call over his shoulder: “ ‘Somehow, I think you're on the wrong track with respect to the son and his connection with the murder. Dr. Hollest wouldn't have fired unless he was certain that the man in the closet was about to attack him and he wouldn’t have fired on his son, in any event.’ “*Put he couldn't have seen’—— “‘Oh, yes he could,’ Kendall retorted. ‘If you'll look earefully you'll see that there is a spot of grease on the shelf of the storeroom where the plate was kept. The thief had a lighted candle there which he grabbed up and extinguished as he became aware of the fact that someone was behind him. The licht from that candle would have been sufficient to show the minister who his assailant was. But this light was hidden from Mrs. Hollest at the foot of the stairs. It was not until the man moved forward, in an involuntary attempt to make his getaway that she caught sight of the green flash that branded itself so deeply upon her brain. It is possible that he left more of a clew in leaving than he did in breaking in. Anvhow, there’s no harm in looking,” and Kendall slipped through the window and, lifting one of the boxes which had been placed over the footprints, began to study them carefully. “As the Chief of Police had stated, the trail led to- o f- Celebrated Detectives ward the wood, ealy.e few hundred yards distant, and the London detective had little difficulty in following it to the place where the intruder had crashed through the undergrowth. Here he disappeared, and it was a half-hour before he returned, to find the local man waiting for him with the blue slip of a telegram in his hands. 3 / “*They’ve got our man in Suffolk,’ he announced, somewhat ruefully, ‘but he seems to have an ironclad alibi. Three people swear he was in their company there at the time the murder was takin’ place here. Wonder if he could be pullin’ anything on us?” “‘Easy enough to find out,’ Kendall answered. ‘Get one of his old shoes and see if they fit those prints. I'll be willing to bet they don’t though, in spite of the fact that I’ve got something here that upset my entire theory of the case,’ and he tapped one coat pocket sug- gestively. “Something you found in the weenie “Kendall nodded. “ ‘Something I picked off the branch of a tree,’ he said. “*What is it?’ “But the man from Scotland Yard contented himself with the enigmatical reply, “The..green flash,’ and moved off in the direction of the village. “Upon reaching the village, Kendall's first action was to inquire if any suspicious characters had been seen in the neighborhood during the past week and, fol- lowing this, bills were posted offering a large reward for the ¢onvictioi? of the man or men who had broken into the Hollest house. “*What about young Hollest?’ demented the Chief of Police. ‘Shall I ask the authorities of Suffolk to hold him or do you think they better let him go” . “ ‘Suit yourself about that,’ was the Inspector's re- ‘ ply. ‘I’ve followed the advice I gave you this morning and, as Joe Hollest’s shoe doesn’t come anywhere near fitting those prints on the lawn, I’m not interested in him. However, if you think it’s worth while to have him examined, go ahead.’ ° “ ‘But if he didn't do it, who did?’ persisted the Chief of Police. “Kendall smiled. “*I think the final answer to that lies in your local draper’s shop,’ he remarked casually. ‘I spent half an hour there shortly after noon and I discovered at least one point that appears to bear directly upon this case. Let me commend the shop to your attention—particu- larly the section where they sell goods by the yard.’ “In the meantime, the offer of the reward had, as Kendall had anticipated, stirred local interest in the Hollest case to an even greater extent than previously. Everyone in the village seemed to have some informa- tion which they thought would bear upon the mystery. The testimony of several of these was so convincing that Kendall filed his notes away with a sigh of re- lief, and, after issuing orders to several of the men who had come up from London at his request, he re- tired with the feeling that the Hollest murder was well on its way toward a solution. “Early the following morning he was roused by a rap on his door and the information that five men were waiting to see him. The party, it developed, consisted of two of the agents from Scotland Yard, with three men whom they had rounded up in the neighboring town of Guildford. “*Here they are, Iaspector,’ announced one of Ken- dall’s assistants: “They made a howl about comin’ along, but we convinced ’em that it would be a good deal healthier than refusin’ to do so.’ “‘How “bout this, Gov’nor?’ demanded the largest of the trio, truculently. “These two fellers routs us out o’ bed just like we was escaped convicts, ‘stead of honest, (Continued From , self-respectin’ citizens, an’ tells us that come over here and talk to you, whether not.’ “"I hope they weren't too rough with you,’ m “*A billiard table, Gov’nor!” “Again it was the largest of the men and his tone indicated a combination of a mm: relief that made the Inspector chuckle. a “*Yes,’ he answered, ‘a billiard table that nes covering.’ “ “The big man swung around on his ¢ a gesture of utter hopelessness, “‘A billiard table!’ he repeated. . ‘What.

Long before daylight, as the Pittsburg raced through a rongh sea. it became evident that the plight of the Monte Grappa was growing more serious. At 4:03 a. m. she sent a more urgent appeal to the Pittsburg. Lt was: “Please stand by.” This was followed at 4:26 a. m. by the message: “We require immediately one of the boats to come along- side.” , At 4:56 a. m. the Pittsburg again checked up the Monte Grappa’s position by asking: “What is your course?” The answer was: “Wait.” This was not reassur- ing. Three minutes later the Monte Grappa was asked the same question and gave the same answer. fm an- other three minutes the required facts came through. “Our course north, 55 degrees east; speed 5 miles.” It will be noticed that the speed of the Monte Grappa had lessened three knots, and this made the problem of Capt. Jones increasingly difficult. At 5:22 a. m. Capt. Jones gave the Monte Grappa his position and speed, adding: “Cannot you steam toward us?” The answer was: “Impossible to steer to- ward you. Be alongside as soon as possible.” The Seydlitz also was steaming toward the Monte Grappa, but at 6:26 a. m., om learning of the Pitts- burg’s progress, she resumed her course for the English Channel. At 8:34 a..m. the steamship Lackawanna asked the Monte Grappa: “Do you need any assistance?” fo PAGE SIXTEEN. which the Monte Grappa replied: “It is already coming —Pittsburé.” During the forenoon and afternoon the Pittsburg was in communication with the steamships Narbo, Rockaway Park, Livingstone Roe and Gleucksburg, giving information regarding the Monte Grappa. Capt. Jones also periodically checked up the Monte Grappa’s speéd and course. At 10:39 a. m. he sent the mes- sage: “If you carry the same course and speed we ought to be up with you by 7 tonight.” Capt. Jones’ faith in his ability to reach the Monte Grappa if she kept ‘afloat is shown in this fine mes- sage, sent at 3:23 p. m. from the Pittsburg: “At 8:30 Greenwich mean time will you please send up a rocket and repeat every 15 minutes. How many people have you on board? Compliments.” The answer of,the.Monte Grappa gave ‘Capt. Jones the measure of the job he had before him. It was: “Will send up rockets. Have 45-men on board. V likely will be obliged to abandon ship. I have no life- boats.” At 4 p. m, the Monte Grappa asked the Pittsburg: “Do you see our rockets?” The answer was: “No.” Twenty minutes later the Pittsburg flashed a mes- sage that must have been among the most joyful the captain of the Monte Grappa ever received. It was: “We have seen your rockets and are bearing down on you.” To this the answer was: “O K.” In another 20 minutes the Monte Grappa reported: “Now we will send up another rocket. Let me know if you see it.” Seven minutes later she asked: “Whén do you expect to be alongside?” oa (Continued From The Pittsburg replied: “Steaming for you, 16 can you see our masthead lights?” The “Cannot.” : At 5:26 p. m. the Pittsburg asked the Monte ¢ “How is the sea alongside of you?” “On sta quiet; that is, not breaking,” was the answer.

Molly exhibited strange and inexplicable symptoms. flushing and paling. finding no place for her regard to rest. until she discovered that Miles Morse was much worse confused than herself. Thereupon, after the manner of women, she became quite composed and easy. Throwgh breakfast he was very silent. After lingering over his coffee to an unwonted degree, he finally arose, with an air of great determinatiqn. said “Well,” in what was meant to be a busifiessiike tone. walked bris*ly to the door. then turned and stood in the most awkward unease. : “The house wont be like a home without you.” said he, desolately. “Won't it?” said Molly. “You'll be going out to your own place verry soon now?” No Molly appeared for breakfast in the morning. In her stead arrived a court officer with a warrant in which the term “feloniously” played a conspicuous and dispiriting part. At court Miles Morse, prisoner, found a delegation from Our Square awaiting him, including Molly, Cyrus the Gaunt, the Bonnie Lassie, Terry the Cop and Inky Mike, the tipster, disguised in a clean collar and taking copious notes with an absorbed and ferocious expression, with a view to dauntfhz wrong- doers by the prospective fierce white light of the press. This was part of the Bonnie Lassie’s strategy. So also was the presence of Merrivale, the young law- yer of the Legal Aid branch, for the Bonnie Lassie had correctly guessed that the accused would disdain to spend money on a lawyer. As he awaited his turn at the bar of judgment (before Wolf Tone Hanrahan, the Human Judge. his friends remarked with satisfaction) Terry the Cop caught sieht of his damaged knuckles. “I always said he had a grand pair of hands,” “mur- eB , G 4 im play or such nonsense. and when Fourth of he'd give me no fireworks nor let me draw sef my little money out of the bank.

Copernicus showed how these effects are produced by the real motion of the earth combined with the real motion of Mars. If both were moving with the same speed. then Mars would seem to be at rest among the stars. The supreme importance of the earth im the solar system had been destroyed. Henceforth it was to rank merely as one of the planets. And for the first time Copernicus rendered something like a rational account of the chatges of the seasons. The epochal treatise was completed in 1530, but he would not consent to its publicatiom until a dozen years had passed. Many persons who had beard of the views advocated by Copernicus doubted if these were in harmony with Scripture. Probably he had a “ well-founded apprehension of the opposition which the new theories would arouse. : Finally he consented to send the book to tlie press. The volume bore a dedication to Pope Paul Lil But (Continued From Page 12) frum which the celestial sphere was to be constructed. It was evident. also, that the diameter of the ceies- tial aphere must be many thousands of times greater than that of the earth. Cepernicus deduced the im- t fact that the stars and the other heavenly must be vast objects. which made it still more i to suppose that the earth should turn on its ence in 24 bours, than to suppose that thousands of stars should revolve about the earth in the A minor objection here was the inconceiv- at which those stars would have to travel him on May 23, 1534.

Apparently he. knows more about whiskers than does any of his contemporaries; and as the topic is of outstanding human interest, let us proceed to shave off a few of The Elderly Gent's ob- servations by way of smoothing the face of under- standing: “One has only to look around one to perceive that we live in an age of more or less clean shaves. Every male American worth his salt and capable of reading a safety razor advertisement clears his face daily of what the late Frank Richardson used to call ‘fungus.’ ” This, of course, is not intended by The Elderly Gent as including Secretary of State Hughes in the list of those Americans who are not capable of read- ing a sefety razor advertisement: nor does it specific- ally illiterize the pink-hirsuted former Senator from Illinois, J. Hamititon Lewis. ' “And in the last couple of years,” The Elderly Gent glides on, “we have followed suit in Britain, with startling and overwhelming follow. Of old the beard was regarded by almost all nations as a sign of strength and an ornament of manhood. Samson had a curly one, and so did Hercules. When the Normans conquered England they found the male aborigines ambushed in fuazy beavers and ordered that they should be shaved off. Rather than comply with this ukase, many of the true-blue woad-stained diehards of the time left the country. “In Greece, where they now wear petticoats, beards were the fashion till Alexander the Great came along and insisted that his soldiers should shave in order that their beards might not be laid hold of by their enemies in battle. “In Rome, everybody who could grow one wore a beard till round about 300 B. C., when Scipio Africanus, who appears to have been a bit of a dandy; started in to shave three times per diem! “In Russia it was beaver, beaver, beaver all the way till Peter the Great imposed a heavy tax on the en- cumbrance and had the beards of those who couldn’t pay either plucked out by the roots or shaved with a blunt razor “all of which, of course, is mere history. Of the smooth-faced big noises in the contemporary world one could make out a pretty lengthy list, which would include H. R. H. the Prince of Wales, Messrs. Church- {ll and Chamberlain, Mr. H. H. Asquith, the Arch- bishop of Canterbury, Lord Beatty, . President Wil- son, Dean Inge, Lord Curzon, Lord Reading, Mr. Joe Beckett, M. Siki, M. Carpentier, Horatio Bottomley, M. Mussolini and the gentlemen who won Motherwell for Moscow. “Among the semi-smooth-faced (inasmuch as they affect only the coffee-straining moustache rather than the Gowing crumb-catcher) we might mention the Prime Minister, Mr. Lloyd George, Mr. Clynes, M. Clemenceau, Eari Balfour, Field Marshals Haig and French, Pussyfoot Johnson, Mr. Ramsay MacDonald and Mr. H. G. Wells. You may shout anything you like after these—but not ‘Beaver!’ “The beaverites, on the other hand, are a select and distinguished company: Leaving out His Majesty George V., whom God preserve, the tally of them com- prises M. Poincare—only a little one, but still a beav- er—Mr. George Bernard Shaw, surely the most amazing whiskerado that ever wagged a hairy chin; Mr. “Augustus John, commonly described as a painter, and Sir Hall Caine, the living double of Shakspeare (any- way as regards the front part of the crumpet). “Other bearded pards—not to be mentioned in the same breath-—are Lenine and Trotzky (both scrubby ones), Mr. John Purns (still combing it in the wilder- ness), ex-Inspector Syme, M. Venizelos, and Mr. Hun- nable (if still alive). “One of these days we may sce England sharply divided on the following portentous inquiry, namely and to-wit: Should she be run and ruled by the beard- less or the bearded? “At the present stable and tranquil juncture it would be ‘invidious’ for us to pass an opinion. But in due time we shall see what we shall see. If the shaven and semi-shaven from Mr. Lloyd George’s ‘cellar’ fail us, the dictates of reason might easily compel us to seek our salvation in the beaver-crimping departments of the barbers’ shops. ial “To shout “Reaver” now after any’ man is a 10-shilling offense.

He advised me to introduce myself to a reputable investment banker and let him invest for me a portion of my savings. I had already taken up five $100 Liberty Bonds. When a small legacy, amounting to $1100, came to me in the second month of the year, I decided to act upon his advice. A word ‘of caution is proper here about investment and speculation. With the last I would have nothing to do. It is not for poor men. It is not for men who sre earning their independence by small and steady eavings. A reputable investment banker will quickly ell you the difference between investment and specu- lation: the cashier at your savings bank will tell you; and both the one and the other will do his best to dis- suade you from putting good money into worthless oil ¢ompany or a gold brick factory. When I had explained my needs to a banker, and told him candidiy my position, what | had accom- plished and what I was endeavoring to do. he intro- duced me personally to the head of a well-known firm of investment bankers, and, | have every reason to be- lieve. said a verv good word f..r me.

Through them I think I became more cautious and I am sure that my judgment upon other matters became sounder. Thus the months sped by. When I commenced the fifth year of my service. I found that I had every reason to be satisfied, and that there was no danger of my falling back into the old ways of careless spend- ing.

It might be interesting to try to discover the line joining painting and built structure. This for a clew: Water, road and all walls in the foreground to a height of nine feet, are actual. Above that, and the town in ‘the left background, all is painting. Can- you separate them? Nor can the audience who sees it on the ecreen. “The third method, that of double ex- posure, obviates the use of any built structure. A small painting, complete, of room, street, building or whatever the setting may be Ts photographed at a cal- ' eulated distance from the camera. The actors then move through their business on a stage draped in black veivet. The camera this time is set up at a greater distance, so that the figures, diminishing, bear the correct relation to the apparent size of the settings. “The black velvet, wiiiindins does not register on the negative. The figures do, and the painting. Certain involved chemical and photographic processes cre- ate the illusion that the figures are walk- ing in front of actual buildings, and prove that the camera, in spite of the old saw, ean be made to lie. “The lighting, too, must be carefully matched on eath piece, their colors, or rather the respective color values. of each in the camera’s monotone recording must have a corresponding flood of light on the other; shadows on‘ each must be alike in darkness. “It is necessary, after the miniature has been set; in certain cases, to hide the scaf- folding by which. it is suspended. This is accomplished by the use of “masking pieces,” that is, walls, trees, shrubbery or other objects placed between the camera and the scaffold. Looking at the photograph of the castle accompanying. such masking pieces will be seen as trees at the right and left extremes of the pic- ture. The shrubs in urns are also mask- ing pieces, and hide the line of the bottom of the miniature. The black line drawn upon the photograph is to show the ap- proximate outline of the two parts. Be- low this line, all is of normal size. The paths of the garden are laid out and bounded with real hedges. But above the line the whole castle is not more than six or eight feet in height.” Een i | ANTED! Get $1600 to $2300 a Year S.
