SOLICITOR BOYK|N
AND LAWYER FIGHT
OVER BUNCO CASE

Solicitor General John A. Boykin
to blows Friday morning in the court
house, as the elimination of their
controversy in connection with the
bunco investigation, and of the re-
cent efforts put forth by Attorney
Chambers to have the solicitor i'm
peached.
Attorney Chambers was standing in
the corridor adjoining the ante-room
of the grand jury room. He had just
presented to the foreman of the
ter expressing his readiness to APP
pear before the grand jury to present
his charges against the solicitor. In
the letter he suggested that his ap-
pearance be deferred until the ar
rival in New York, on a steamer from
Beunos Aires, of one j. H. Ohlney,
who is believed in some quarters to
be none other than Floyd p. Wood
ward, the head of the bunCo syndi-
cate. This suggestion was advanced
upon the theory that testimony cor
roborating the Chambers charges
could be obtained from Woodward, if
the man on the steamer should prove
to be Woodward.
Solicitor Boykin came out of his
office at the south end of the CORR
dor. Seeing Attorney Chambers
standing at the north end of the cor
rldor, the solicitor walked rapidly to-
wards him and opened fire on him
with a straight right to the jaw. At
torney Chambers whirled and grab
bed the solicitor in the collar and
fought back. They went into clinch
and exchanged several short range
blows. Solicitor Boykin landed most
of his blows to the attorneys face,
while the Chambers blows were
somewhat distributed.
County Policeman L. J. Dickerson
grabbed Attorney Chambers and
County Policeman L. w. Allen grab
bed Solicitor Boykin. AS the two an
tagonists were dragged apart. So
licitor Boykin said:
I'm going to settle this thing"
Ready, Says Chambers
"All right, sir, I'm ready whenever
and wherever you are" retorted At
torney Chambers.

would any other pole cat business,
said the solicitor
Solicitor Boykin, after straighten-
ing his tie and brushing his hair,
proceeded into the grand jury room.
Attorney Chambers performed SINH

friends with an account of the fra

U. s. MUST SACRIFICE
 TO GET DISARMAMENT
MiIitarist Newspaper of Japan De clares American Must Be Will
 ing to Go Half Way.

Tokio, March 9-America must be willing to make some sacrifice in be- half of the principle of disarmament adcocated by President Harding in his inauguration speech, declares the militarist Kokumm Shinbun, in com menting on MT. Harding's address.
 "Otherwise," the newspaper con- tinues, mo power would accept his suggestions. Disarmament must be real and no country caring for peace will oppose it.
 Other newspapers here commented more on the controversy regarding the island of Yap than on MT. Hard- ing's inauguration. It appears to be the concensus of opinion that Japan should insist upon the mandate given her but make some concessions rela- tive to cable communication. The Nichi Nichi Shimbun interprets America's protest over the island of Yap as another indication of the "dark" cloud lowering relations be- tween Japan and America, already evidenced by the strengthening of their defense in the Pacific.
 It demands that both governments strive to dissipate misunderstanding. In this connection the Asshi Shimbun of Osaka says Americas insistance upon freedom of submarine commun- ication in the Pacific should be re- spected by Japanese.

A WOMAN S CURIOSITY
 DISCOVERED SILK
From the Kansas City Star.

From the Kansas City Star.
 Once upon a time-4,983 years ago, to be exactr-a 14-year-old Chinese empress named Si-Lng Chi observed little worm busily spinning fiber on the leaves of a white mulberry tree. After she had watched this fas- cinating process until her curiosity was satisfied, she began to exercise her ingenuity by trying to gather up and reel the fiber.
 Soon she made a demonstration to the ladies of her court and interested them Tn this new and absorbing amusement. Together the empress and her court ladies busied them selves with the task of weaving this fiber into fabrics and embroidering it. The results delighted them.
 So far the emperor looked upon this absorbent hobby of this little con- sort with tolerant amusement. To him and to the wise men of his court it was only pretty game for foolish women. But one day he was startled out of his indifference when Si-Ling Chi presented him with a beautiful ceremonial garment made from the worms fiber. A garment of such dag zling sheen had never before been seen at the court of China, and from then on it became the fashion for all members of the court to wear clothes made of this wonderful new fabric.
 In this way the wearing of silk be- came the fashion turnout all China. The culture of silk became a national industry. China grew rich thru the export of silken fabrics to India, Per sia, Arabia and other parts of Asia. So valuable was this industry to China that it preserved the secret of silk culture with jealous care and death was the penalty decreed for anybody found taking or sending out of China the silkworm, its eggs or the seed of the white mulberry tree. And for centuries neighboring coun- China the secret of silk.
 But about $50 B. C., however, there came into China prince of In- dia who won the love of a Chinese princess. Together they eloped into India, and the princess in order that she might be able to enjoy her fam iliar occupation in her new home, car ried with her some silkworm eggs and seeds of the white mulberry tree. Sc smuggled them thru by concealing them in her sandals. Not long after wards she disappeared mysteriously from her husbands palace and was never heard of again, but the secret she brought with her remained in In- dia, and soon the courts of the raiahs were alive with vari-colored silken costumes,

 According to Homer, Circe aug mented her charms by amounting her. self with various perfumes and it was by the harmony of these perfumes that she bewitched Ulysses. Violet was the favorite perfume with the Athenians at feasts, funerals and other ceremonies. There were foun- tains of fragrant waters at the feasts of Nero.
