FIGURE in Army
TRAGEDY Returns
Mrs. Madeline Janney, Wife of
Officer Who Killed Self,
Arrives Home
Following Visit to Brother She
Will Go East to Hus=
bands Family

Mrs. Madeleine Janney. who was the
central figure last March in an army
tragedy, returned yesterday from Ma
Mia on the Japanese liner Nippon
Maru. Mrs. Janney is the widow of
the late Lieutenant Clarence NJ jan
ney of the Twelfth infantry, who com
mitted suicide March II at his home
in Manila. He shot himself in the pres
ence of his wife and Lieutenant Colo
mel r. F. Ames. at whose house the
Janneys had been dining.
Before the guests sat down to din
ner Janney discovered on Colonel Ames
stdeboard a champagne cooler that
had belonged to him. When he learned
that his wife had presented it to the
colonel he made a scene. but was ap-
parently pacified. The colonel escorted
his guests home and a few minutes
after the three of them entered the
Janney quarters the lieutenant pro-
duced a revolver with which he killed
himself.
The coroner's jury returned a ver-
dict of suicide. The military authori-
ties held an investigation as the re-
suit of which charges of drunkenness
and conduct unbecoming an officer
were preferred against Colonel Ames.
He was tried by court martial, which
found him guilty of drunkenness. but
not guilty of conduct unbecoming an
officer. BY way of punishment he was
set back IL numbers. The decision of
the. court martial was severely criti-
cised by General Ramsey G. Pont, who
resented the decision of the trial court
as being a reflection on the standard
of conduct to be observed by commits
stoned officers in the military service.
Mrs. Janney. before her marriage to
DR.. Pedar Bruguiere, from whom she
secured a divorce, was Miss Madeleine
McKisick of Oakland. She is going

RUBBER INTERESTS

Senator's Corporation Finds
Business So Profitable It
Wants More Plantations
Especial Dispatch TO The Call

NEW YORK, Aug 27.-The crude
rubber business in this country has
proved so profitable for United States
Senator Aldrich and his friends that
they are securing the earth, it was
learned today, in search of possibilities
for additional plantations.
Just what their company, the s4o.-
100000 Intercontinental, really owns
could not be ascertained. 1t was said
at its Office that it is close corpora
tion and does not make public any
financial or other report. 1t is known.
however, that it owns certain ranches
in Mexico, among which is the Cedres.
that alone surpasses in area the whole
of Aldrich's state of Rhode Island.
In addition, it is believed the COM
pany has concessions in Brazil, and it is
on record that it owns all the Amer
lean Congo company, with its grants of
vast tracts of rubber bearing land in
the Belgian Congo. With all these
fields to draw from, 1t is now sending
ENJOYS to Central and South America
and even to Australia in search of addi-
tional plantations.
Crude rubber can be brought into this
country free of duty, Notwithstanding
the immense profits that are being
made by the manufacturing companies
that use it. Under such conditions the
margin of gain is so large that Aid
rich's Intercontinental company, it
was said, semofficially, is earning 16
per cent on its $4,000, 600 of common
stock. in addition to paying per cent
per annum on its s10,00o,000 of pre-
ferred.

That Is What Most Farmers Claim
for Whitman County.

Predictions are being sent broadcast
in regard to this years wheat crop
Predictions began to pour out in the
early spring, when the ground was
soaked with rain like a sponge dipped in
a basin Of water, with the result that the
newsmongers have sent out all kinds OF
predictions according to weather con
ditions and the outlook at the time OF
writing Some now say We will not
have more than half crop. 1t is ap-
parent that in some sections OF the
county half crop is all that can be
looked for, while in other sections good
crops will be harvested, the result be.
ing that We will get an average crop this
year, as cOntradistinguished from a
bumper crop last year and the year be-
fore. People can't expect q bumper
crop every year. An average crop is
something to be tickled over.

THIS is NOT A FISH YARN
Although Boss Story of the Season
It Can Be Proven.

Fish have been coming through the
pipes into the reservoir ever since the
food period OF last March. From the
reservoir many have found their way to
water users around town. They got
into the pipes all in one day at Silver
creek, above Elberton, most of them
managing to get air at certain places
where the pipe line goes over elevations,
although many smothered and foated
out dead with the current. screen is
now used to catch the fish as they drop
from the pipe line into the reservoir, two
showing themselves Tuesday. Most of
them are small and their number must
have been legion, judging from the army
that found their way into the pipes.

have the citizenship of COlfax back OF US
to vouch for the truthfulness Of the
above. Next
