njH LyNcHES TBRE.E: IN
 CALIFORNIA
MEN HAD RESISTED ARREST AND KILLED THREE OFFICERS IN GUN FIGHT WHICH FOLLOW ED.

Santa Rosa, Calf, Dec. b. A mob last night lynched Charles Val ento, George Boyd, and Torrance Fitts, San Francisco gangsters, who were charged with killing three of ficers.
 The mob, the members of which were all masked, formed after mid night. They overpoweEed the jail guards and dragged the men from their cells. They were taken in an automobile to the cemetery where all three were hanged on the same tree. After the lynching the mob dispersed quietly and left the bodies hanging.
 Pitts screamed and begged for mercy, but Valenta jeered and laugh ed at the lynchers until the last. Boyd, who was still suffering from gunshot wounds received in the fight Sunday in which the three of ficers were killed was too weak to protest, and had to be carried from the auto to the gailows.
 The lynching had been feared since the killing of the officers.
 The shooting occurred when off cers attempted to arrest Valenta on the charge of having assaulted two San Francisco telephone operators.
 Boyd made a confession in which he stated that he was responsible for the death of all three officers, but the grand jury indicted all three tnd they were being held for trial.

ANOTHER MURDER MYSTERY
 BATTLES THE POLICE.
Body of Young Woman, Nude and
 Mut;lated Found in Los Angeles.

Los Angeles, Dee. 13.- Police are searching for the murderer and seeking to establish the identity of 9 young woman whose nude and mutilated body was found here under the leaves and brush in a lonely eu- calyptus grove.
 The face of the woman was hacked beyond recognition. A blood-stained suit case full of women's clothing and large quantity of jewelry was found near the body.
 The jewelry which was found in the suit case was said to include 164 strings of synthetic pearls, con taining more than 10000 separate pearls and gave rise to the belief that she was killed by a band of thieves who were frightened away before securing their booty.

ROOT TO CONFER
 WITH PRESIDENT-ELECT
Republican Leader Will Give Views
 On League of Nations.

Marion, O., Dec. 13.-The pressure being brought to bear on President elect Harding to save the frame work of the league of nations by of fering to enter on conditions which will safeguard the interests of the United States, was increased with the arrival today of Elihu Root, one of the most powerful figures in the republican party and a staunch friends of the league.
 MT. Root planned to describe to the president-elect the formation of the league court in which he partici pated several months ago. He also expected to outline the extent to which European powers could be expected to make concessions to American public opinion in striking out article X, and it's jurisdiction over immigration and domestic ques- tions and interpretations of the Monroe doctrine.
 Rev. John Wesley Hill. promi- nent New York minister, is also scheduled to arrive to confer with the president-elect.

MUSIC IN THE SCHOOLS.

Fayetteville, Ark, Dec. 13-That music should be taught in all the public schools of Arkansas is the opinion of Henry Doughty Tovey, di- rector of the school of music at the University of Arkansas, and former president of the Arkansas Music Teachers Association. Professor Tovey would have the children taught the rudiments of music at the age of seven or eight, as is done in many other states.
 "In Illinois school music has been taught for TO years" says Professor Tovey. "At the age of seven every child should be able to read his notes and at the age of 8 he should be sing ing parts. He learns in class with other children and it is fun. It is known that if lessons get tense be cause children are tired a song will freshen up a child and make him go back to his studies with renewed interest.
 "Violin and singing classes, say twice a week for half an hour in school. can be arranged usually at a cost as low as ten or fifteen cents 8 lesson a child. Whats the result? In two years every school in town would have it's own orchestra. Ev- cry child would know how to use his voice and community sings would be easily gotten up at moments notice, to say nothing of it's value to the child"

WOMEN DISAPPOINT OUR
 LADY ASTOR, NJ. P

London, Dec. l. tBy Mail to Unit. ed Press. .l-Lady Astor is disap- pointed in women.
 And she told them so in a speech which she made to masses of them at the opening of the EngGshwoman' $ Exhibition.
 ''I am glad that the days of the cliging, dependent woman are over," she said. "When I was child I used to read about heroines who tainted at the sight of rat and wondered if I would grow up like that"
 However, while admitting that wo- men have outgrown these pueri,ities she deplored their lack of logic in the matter of dress.
 '"This is testing time for women" she continued, "but when I walk down Bond Street and see the way they dress, think they have been tested, and have failed. What should we think if men changed the length of their trousers each year?" she asked.
 Lady Astor appealed to the women to dress more sensibly, as men do. Her idea seemed to be that if their skirts reached a logical conclusion, their brains might get there some day, too.
 Another grudge which Lady Astor has against women is their absolute lack of loyalty. She declared that women would not vote for women, just because they were women whereas men never refrained from voting for a member of their own sex merely because he was of that sex.
 Judging from opinions expressed by members of the audience, most ot the women there were entirely in accord with Lady Astor. They agreed that in the main women were foolisl creatures.
 That is why they vote for men.

EXECUTED ON BIRTHDAY
Boy Hanged For Participation i,
 Murder of Saloonkeeper.

Chicago, Dec. 10.-Nick Viana, the choit boy murderer, went to his death today, which is his 10th birth day, without trace of fear and persisting in his innocence.
 Viana was executed for participa- tion in the murder of Andrew Bow man, saloon keeper.
 "It is no disgrace to die for your father, mother and sisters" he exclaimed, as the moose was being adjusted.
 He declared that while he did not do the shooting of Bowman, he would not tell who did, because of threats made against the lives of members of his family if he turned states evidence.
 The boy sang Kipling's "Mothel 70 Mine," his last song, for his moth CT when she visited him in the death cell shortly after midnight.

LARGE LOSSES ENTA|LED IN
 CORk FIRE
MARTIAL LAW HAS NOT BEEN
 EFFECTIVE IN KEEPING DOWN
 DISTURBANCE HIN IRELAND.

Cork Dec. 13.-More than fifty buildings have been destroyed in the incendiary fires which started here Saturday night, many of which are still burning. The burned area ex- tends over a quarter of a mic of the main business section of the city, with losses estimated at approxi- mately $15, 100000.
 At least 2.000 persons are out of work. Among the buildings destroy ed were several banking houses, the city hall, drapers and other shops
 It is believed there must have been many casualties, but the smoking ruins has so far prevented search for bodies.
 There is disagreement as to whether the fire was started by the British police in reprisal for the recent ambushes.
 The British government has started an investigation of the conflagration When the flames first broke out there was panic among the popu- lace.
 The declaration of martial law does not seem to have had much eff feet in keeping down disturbances in the Emerald Isle, but it will probably be extended until 1t covers the entire country.

NEWSPAPER REPORTER CLEAN
 ED UP CHICAGO.

Chicago, Dec. 10. United Press) William Hale Thompson, mayor of Chicago, called Charles Fitzmorris, former newspaper reporter, in his office and gave him the job of chief of police and this assignment:
 Clean Chicago up. Put every gunman, criminal and bootlegger in jaN,"
 This happened only recently, but today Chicago is cleaner than any time in years.
 F.tzmorris, oniy 35, is the youngest metropolitan p3llce chief in the country and it $ .'neralEy admittcl l h. is putting his Lew job otet with tfrg.
 Fist of all he called his police force in and sa41 "You are new s.at'ng on g clean slate. Charges lf efficiency have been made aoainyt many of vou I'll for~-' all tnl: LOW. Ev4ry nan must make ~on.: e get out Of he department Chieyeo must fe clean."

 The whole city was invited to come to jail the next day to look over the crowd to see if any could be identified with any recent crimes. Bertiliion records were made of ev- cry man taken.
 Since then, raids have netted hum dreds and the criminal class is about to 'play quits," realizing the new chief means business.
 On Fitzmorris' first day as police chief he "scooped" the whole police department by going out and arrest ing bandit who had robbed a bank. The bandit had been sought bl police for several weeks.
 No amount of influence will get any Chicagoan out of a liam" now, the new chief claims.
