SAYS CHANDLER
 D|SPENSAbLE

One of the most enthusiastic boost CTS for the Chandler automobile that could possibly be found is Mrs. Chas. B. Palmer, who with her husband, Dr. Chas. B. Palmer, left Phoenix early this summer for the Pacific coast to spend an extended vacation.
 Tn choice of motor car was thor oughly gone into by both Doctor and Mrs. Palmer, and among several makes the Chandler was agreed upon, first, because it is such an exception ally big automobile for the money, second, because it is economical and easy to handle and thirdly, because Cal Messner distributes the line here.
 We could not have selected a bet ter car for the money" states Mrs. Palmer. 'I am convinced that the | Chandler is easier riding than many cars selling at higher price. I am sure that no car Is any easier to drive and handle than our Chandler, and the upkeep cost has been exceedingly modest,
 We purchased our car in June" stated Mrs. Palmer, further, "and left Phoenix in July. driving to Los An gles by way of Parker. The roads were terrible. We ran into a couple of rivers that ordinarily are not on 1 the map, but succeeded in arriving at our destination in fine shape. Dr. 1 Palmer had to leave for New York shortly after we arrived in Los An
 geles, so :. I .piloted the car around California all during the time he was East. The Chandler was on the go constantly. It scarcely had a mo-
 mena's rest, and I found it delight
 to drive. When doctor returned, we l then made preparations to return to 1 Phoenix, and took the Parker route back, finding it just as bad as when we went over it before"
 Mrs. Palmer states that not since l purchasing the car has it required
 one penny's. expenditure for any me- chanical adjustments or repairs. I've ! are in love with our car and don't know what we would do without it, 7"
 she, declared yesterday. We have
 owned other cars but we have never
 had so much car for the money it
 seems
 The cars economy of operation has
 made a big hit with both Dr. and Mrs.
 Palmer who say that this is not the
 least of the splendid features Of the
 Chandler.

Many High-Priced
 Features Found
 Throughout Essex

"At s1375, f. o. b. Detroit, the Essex offers a value that we believe no one buying a car priced between one and two thousand dollars will fail to con- sider," state Dulmage & Dunbar, local Essex dealers.
 s'The Essex has always been an outstanding value by every standard of price and quality comparison.
 .sIts devices which provide for longer wear, or for taking up wear at no expense, are features that only a few of the highest priced cars du- plicate.
 @That is why Essex cars that have run 10000 or 30,000 miles and more are serving as we'll, IS quietly and economically now as when new.
 Hearings are snug, joints are tight and free from squeaks. Doors are solid and there are no body squeaks.
 "The Esse xowners who have driven their cars long mileages are really our best statesmen and we en- courage all prospects to ask such owners before making up their minds
 eSuch a method always brings out the Essex advantages which are not noticeable when new cars are com pared in the show room. Those ad- yantages certainly appear in service especially after season or so. anc that is why we have no fear of the result when a prospect gets the opin- ion of an old Essex owner

ing sailor in the United States Navy
Former Justice John G. Dyer, coun-
SCI for Mrs. Thorne, opposed the con-
firmation of the referees report, which
he argued was based on unreliable evil
dence. Mr.. Dyer asked that the report
Of the referee be set aside and that
the case be tried by jury. In deny
ing this plea, Justice Burr said: "The
evidence in this case fully justihes the
findings made and conclusions reached
by the referee
The decree If the court in favor of
Mr.. Thorne also will provide that he
is to have the custody of his young
son, Joel Wolfe Thorne jr., and that
the husband will not be required
further to pay his wife the $3.50
month alimony, which Mrs. Thorne has
been receiving pending the outcome of
the double action.
Mary Casey entered Barnard College
and worked her way through, being
graduated in 1908. In 1903 She re
ccived her NJ. A. degree, and the next
schools. Soon afterward she met Joel
Wolfe Thorne, and in November, 1911,
she became his bride. The wedding
was a pretentous che, taking place at
the Hotel Plaza.
In 1918 domestic troubles in the
Thorne household were revealed, Mrs.
Thorne advertising the disappearance
Of her husband. She charged that his
parents had poisoned his mind against
her. At the time she announced that
she had had no knowledge of her hus-
bands whereabouts since the third
birthday of her son, Joel jr., the pre-
vious October.
Later Mrs. Thornc was sent to Belle
vue Hospital charged with alcoholism
She obtained her release by applica-
ton to the courts and filed suit for
100000 against the physician who
sent her there. She lost the caee.
The following year her young son
disappeared in the custody of his nurse
and Mrs. Thorne charged that he had
been kidnapped.

on a Mail Order Scale,
Form Letters and All

Rina Iwanska, alleged possessor Of
two aliases, three addresses and
enough business ability to collect
money from about forty we'll scattered
frances in the same month, was ar
rested yesterday on a charge of con-

The government has no evidence as to

SO Wholesale were her operations, 1t
is alleged. that she had no time to

the forty frances, but adopted the
policy common in large concerns of
sending out we'll considered series of
form letters, which took up in proper
order all the financial problems which

posed to arrange.
Bina never met any OF her frances.
According to the authorities, hers was

to stimulate trade. As she was born
near Warsaw, she chose the Polish
press as her medium, it is said.
Five weeks ago, it is charged, fnan
cial distress came upon Miss Iwanska,
when Prohibition closed Churchill's,
where she used to check cloaks and
coats and hats. 1t is charged that then
she decided to learn whether it pays
to advertise. About that time the

"You really suit my taste, and it
seems to me that you could make me
happy" is the opening line of the first
of the letters submitted. "To me it is
not a question of wealth, for I am of

and honest work we can easily acquire
fortune. The only question ! am
concerned about is whether I am to

Dives Through Window as
Woman Screams; Slides
Right Into S Policemen

Julian Herbert, who has been in
training for months SO that he might
be able to get good job as an aerial
acrobat with circus, must give up his
training, temporarily at least. Ibc
police announced last night that they
have other plans in store for him.
Julian's prize stunt, dizzy FIRE
escape descent, which he has perfected
through months Of strenuous practice,
didn't work 80 we'll yesterday. 1t
started all right, but finished all wrong.
He shot down the fire escape at his
usual lightning speed, but at the bot
tom were three detectives, two patrol
men and several pedestrians. all eager
to lay hands on the acrobatic Julian.
And they did lay hands on him, but not
until they had chased him some dis
lance up Second Avenue.
They locked him up at Police Head
quarters last night on charge Of.
burglary. After telling them about
his circus. ambitions he admitted, ac-
, cording to the police, that in the course
of his acrobatc training he had robbed

Julian was ransacking the third floor
apartment Of Mrs. Julia Subin at SO
Third Avenue last night, according to
the police, when Mrs. Subin entered
and asked what it was all about. Julian
offered no reply, but amazed Mrs SUI
bin by leaping clear across the room
and landing squarely on the fire escape.
AS he began his descent Mrs. Subin
began screaming, and before Julian
could reach the bottom detectives and
patrolman had gathered and were look

Julian managed to elude but he
couldn't outrun them. His training
course, it seems, hasn't included sprint

slept in peace. But by and by he
began to get uneasy. That was when
he was having a bad dream. He
twisted and squirmed and at last
kicked out with one of his hind feet.
