st. Danley Of Macomb Believes That
Hand of Policemen is Not Turn
ed Against Him Every
where.
MORTGAGE PRESENTED
maconb Lawyer Sent Over Document
to be Signed But Local Authori-
ties Told Them to Get Man
or be Released.

s. T. Danley believes that the hand
of every policeman is not turned
against him, at least he SO told the
Keokuk authorities yesterday. Dan
lev was released from custody yes
terday noon, when McDonough county
officials, after two weeks Of negOha-
lions failed to come for him.
Danley's story is an interesting one
and has many peculiar angles. He
was arrested in Keokuk December l,
and Immediately after his arrest
habeas corpus proceedings we're
threatened. He had sehved 250 days
in McDonough county Jail, and had
walked out when some other prison
ers broke jail. He was charged by
officials there with owing a line OF
$500. and this week mortgage Tor
81 400 was sent to the police mere
with the request that they have Ian
lev execute it and they would release
charges against him
The county attorney here ADVISED
Gre sheriff at Macomb that they
.ao11ld not present the mortgage to
Ianley, and that if he wanted MIN 10
as,me to Keokuk by Friday, afternoon.
Fhe officials failed to come, ana Ian
fey was released.
According " bdIliCy SSo's
-vas in business as nurseryman
near Macomb, and that he was max
ing wine from some grapes on his
nronerty. He told the officers here
that some policemen came out from
Macomb, destroyed some of his prop
ertv and arrested him. He was given
iajl sentence and had served ESQ
DAVIS. but was told there was still
fine of $500 pending.
Papers are Requested.
The last of November some prison
ers in jail broke out, and Danley fol.
lowed them. He came to keokuk and
was arrested December i, on WORD
from the Illinois people. Chief NC
Pherson asked for certified copies OF
the warrant and was told that extra
dition papers were being requested
and would be forwarded.
In the meantime Danley nao
secured an attorney and haoeas
corpus proceedings were being con-
sidered. A second request for papers
brought letter and mortgage from
an attorney by the name OF i: M.
Downing, asking the police TO nave
Darley sign the mortgage, when was
for $500 turning over all MS prop
erty to officials there.
The mortgage was not given Dan
lev. but word sent that if the Macomb
people wanted him to come WITHIN
the next twenty-four hours They
failed to come and Danley was re-
leased yesterday.
you're a square bunch Of fellows,
and I feel that not every policeman
is against me-" Danley told Chiet
Mcpherson yesterday as he was leaV-
ing.

MUCH USED IN EAST
Concentrated Form Of Butter Fat En-
pIoyed in Preparation OF Al
most All Dishes.

Ghee is briefly described as clari-
fed butter. Cows or buffalo's milk Is
submitted TO q process Of churning
and. boiling which yields concentrat-
ed form of butter fat considered to be
entirely free from curd, whey or wa
ter. This product keeps better than
ordinary butter, but has a taste not
usually appreciated by Europeans. Al
though commonly associated with the
diet of the British Indian, ghee is used
as we'll throughout the Red sea dis
trict by the Arabs, Somalis, British
Indians. and other native elements OF
the population. In a minor way ghee
is used incidentally and ceremonially;
but its principal use is in the prepara-
ton of food, and no native meal in
this part of the world is truly relished
unless ghee is generously used in some
form or other. 1t Is worked into the
dough for native bread, and the bread
is fried in ghee; or if ordinary bread
is used the pieces broken off to be
eaten are first dipped into cup or
vessel of hot ghee. 1t. is used in the
preparation of all meat dishes. and of
many vegetable dishes. Some natives.
particularly the Arabs, boil 1t with
milk and drink the mixture.

FILLMORE, the second

NNILLARD FILLMORE, the second
lYE vice president to be promoted by
death, was the most commonplace
president even in twenty-year period
when the presidency remained at low
water mark. Tall and with magisterial
front, but cold and hollow, heSlooked
the part which he played-the dummy
of northern trimmers in politics and
of southern trafIickers in slaves.
A fable Of the day hit off the truth.
The new president must have a car
riage, and "Old Edward" Moran, q
White House attendant in many adj
ministrations, took him to see hand
some outfit, whose owner was leaving
Washington and would sell it at q
bargain. ..-'' $50
This is all very well, Edward
Fillmore mused, according to the pop
ular yarn; "but how would it do for
the president of the United States
to ride around in a secondhand car
riage?"
n But, sure" argued "Old Edward"
Your Ixellency is only secondhand
prisdent!"
In Fillmore we have another from

RED CROSS ASSISTS
DISABLED VETERANS

The American Red Cross is carrying
on a wide program of service for the
disabled World War veterans receiving
treatment in United States Public
Health hospitals, and those being train
ed through agencies of the Federal
Board for Vocational Education.
In each of the Public Health Service
hospitals Red Cross workers devote
their time to the general welfare OF
the service men from the day they
enter the receiving ward until they
are discharged. After the soldiers dis
charge the Red Cross continues Its
friendly service through the Home
Service Section in his own community.
The Red Cross maintains a GONZALES
cent house at all of the hospitals,
where patients can amuse themselves
after they are well enough to be up
and around Parties and picture shows
in the wards are also furnished, with
occasional excursions when GONZALES
cence comes.
Great service has been rendered by
the Red Cross. in mental cases i'll iden-

EQUIPPED TO RULE OCEAN
Monster That Lived 100000 Years
Ago Must Have Been Terror
to Other Fishes.

In the National museum at Wash
ington is exhibited the skeleton of a
zeuglodon-a monster which in life
was seventy feet long and which must
have been ruler of the seas during q
.bygone epoch. There is good reason
to believe that this alarming creature
dates back fewer than 100000 years,
says a bulletin. i
With an enormously, long tail ana
powerful swimming paddles, the Zeu-
glodon must have been able to swim
at the speed of an express train, and
its great alligatorlike head was armed
with huge carniyorous teeth.
1t was manifestly a ferocious and
predatory brute and presumably tef
on fishes and porpose. The head wa
four feet long and In the front pan
of each jaw were eight teeth for sei7
ing and tearing, which were suppld
mented by series of saw edged Gu
ting teeth at the back.
The Zeuglodons were mammals, r
lated to modern whales. They mus
in their time have been very numerou
judging from the quantities of the
bones dug up in Mississippi and Al;
bama, where in places there are
many as to interfere with plowin
Farm walls are built of them.
Apparently the creatures, whid
are denizens of warm seas, died an
were washed up into shallow water =
that, afterward became dry Ia2d.
Drifting sands covered their bones,
preserving. the latter to some extent.
Their. teeth Qoose in the jaws like
those of alligators) are found scat
tered about in the neighborhood ofsthe
bones.

The Beard in History.

The beard, considered sign Of man.
hood, was stroked for the first time
in Paradise by Adam, if tradition Is
to be believed, and has had q strange
part in the worlds history Of vanity
and fashion ever since. History says
the kings of Persia plated their
boards with golden thread, and that
the winged bulls Of Assyria also had
boards. Saladin's son, Turkish his
torians say, wept for fear when he
saw the shaven ENJOYS of the Cru
saders. g.
Razors made of flint and oyster
shell were used in prehistoric times
when man gave way to the first de-
mands of vanity. The greatest ben
efactor of BARRIERS in the worlds his
tory was Alexander the Great, who
shaved himself to preserve his youth,
and had his army shaved to prevent
the enemy seizing their. boards. He
set fashion that was followed by
the Greeks, the philosophers by pro-
fession alone being excepted. This
custom adopted by him has come down
through the centuries.

tier president. For western New York
was an outpost when he was born
there of New England parents. After
receiving about the same kind Oh
schooling as our other log-cabin presl-
dents, he was bound out to learn the
trade of wool carder.
The one enduring act Of the Fill
more administration was taken when
it sent Commodore Perry to knock at
the long-cosed gate Of Japan, 'and,
with the gift of a toy railroad and a
toy telegraph, to tempt the japanese
to come out of their hermit seclusion.
The rest is politics.
AS American mon struggled to rise
from the bottom in the more primitive
days of the country, their women Of
ten failed to keep up with them. BY
the time half of Fillmore's predeces-
sors gained the presidency, their
wives were either dead, worn out or
tagging behind.
Mrs. Fillmore, finding herself with
out strength or ambition to reign With
her husband, her place was taken by
daughter. This girl Of eighteen,
Miss Mary Abigail, was enough Of
new woman to have insisted on fitting
herself by a course in normal schod
to earn ap Independent. living. Being
ohligatedEto teach a certain length of
time after graduating, she went on
teaching school even after her father
became vice president. She kept at it
until her mother summoned her to
preside over the White House, where
she promptly induced congress to JIM
stall library, the mansion having
been until then a bookless desert.
+ A month after the end Of her hus-
bands term Mrs. Fillmore was dead.
Next Miss Mary died of cholera, and
then, after q tour Of Europe, the
pathetic loneliness Of a retired presi-
dent was relieved by marriage with
wealthy widow.
Fillmore had tried toIavert this re-
tirement by an unsuccessful effort to
be nominated to succeed himself.
sFour years afterward he attempted
to break the retirement and return
to the presidency. Although he had
both the Knownothfng and Wing NOM
nations, he ran third in the election.
He lived on in his Buffalo horne until
the very year. when another Bdfalo-
pian, Grover Cleveland, started for
the White House by way Of the
shrievalty of Erie county. e,r

AMERICANS ABROAD
in RED CROSS WORK
United States Citizens Far Away
Enthusiastic Members of the
"Fourteenth' Division.

Among the most enthusiastic and
energetic members of the American
Red Cross are those citizens OF the
United States who live outside the
continental boundaries Of their country
SONS and daughters Of the Stars ana
Stripes residing at the far corners OF
the earth.
These people compose the lnsular
and Foreign Division of the parent or
ganization, generally known as the
"Fourteenth" Division, which has
Jurisdiction of all territory outside
the country proper; that is, Alaska
Porto Rico, Hawaii, Virgin Islands, the
Philippines, Guam, and even the Is
land of Yap, which came under our
flag as a result of the world war. For
the year 1920 this division reported
30,S0S paid up members.
The main object of. this division is
to give our citizens everywhere the op-
portunity to participate in the work
of the organization which stands for
the best national ideals. Americans
in far places intensely loyal and pa
triotic, treasure their membership IN
the Red Cross as the outward eX-
preston of their citizenship, 1t is an
other tie to the homeland and to
each other. There are chapters Of
this, division in Argentine, Bolivia,
Brazil, Canal zone Chile, China, Costa
rRica, Cuba, Dominican Republic,
Ecuador, England, France, Guam,
Guatemala, Haiti, Hawaii, Honduras,
Japan, Manchuria, Netherlands, Mica
ragua, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines,
Porto Rico, Siberia, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland, Syria, Turkey, Uruguay,
Venezuela and Virgin Islands.
During the war these scattered
members of the Red Cross contrib
uted millions in money, and millions
of dollars worth of necessary articles
for the men in service, and sent many
doctors and. nurses to France. At the
same time they carried on an excel
lent Home Service in their respective
communities for the families Of those
who had gone to war, and in some re-
gions gave large sums of money and
Unreasonable personal service to the
relief of disaster and disease victims.
The division. is now establishing
service clubs in foreign ports for the
benefit of sailors in the American Nler-
chant Marine, making plans TO aid
Americans in trouble in foreign lands
and completing arrangements for CIV
ing immediate adequate relief in case
Of disaster.
It is tie Fourteenth Divisions part
in the great Peace Time program OF
