Frank Corn Goes to Jail

Gainesville, Ga, July 26.-Frank
Corn and rye whiskey, the former a
man and the latter liquid, figured
in raid near Flowery Branch Satur
day when Deputy Sheriffs Strick-
land, Holland and Crow captured 80
gallons of white rye whiskey-
Frank Corn.
A broken down car without the
customary cans Of rum aroused
the suspicious Of the sleuths who
kept an eye on the two autoists un-

Right enough, the cargo had been
cached in the woods nearby and
when the reloading began the min

the luckless pair.
One of them fleet to foot, outran
the officers and doged the bullets,
but Frank Corn and Corn's rye were

SENATORS AGAIN ADVISE
FARMERS TO HOLD COTTON
Say There 10 Every Reason Now
That Staple Will Go To
Twenty Cents.

Washington, Aug. 6.-'Don't sell
your goods until you get your price"
This advice was speeding over the
wires today to farmers all over the
country. 1t was sent out by men,
bers of the house and senate as re-
suit of senate approval Of the ad-
ministration's farm credits bill which
is counted on to boost prices of all
farm products.
"Hold your cotton for price Of
20 cents a pound" was one message
sent out broadcast over the southern
states. It was supplemented by a
statement from Senator Heflin, Ala
bama, which is to get wide circula-
lation in the cotton belt. Senator
Hefin, some months ago advised cot
ton planters to hold cotton, when it
was selling for something over 20
cents. He today again urged that it
be held. This represented an increase
Of z, 8 or 8 cents a pound over pres
ent prices.
"There is every reason now that
cotton should speedily go to 20
cents pound" said the Heflin
statement.
"The farmer is entitled to receive
that price, and he cannot afford to
sell for less. I want to see our
farmers, merchants and bankers in
the cotton-growing states stand to-
gether for higher prices for cotton"
Western senators appealed to by
constituents for advice, in favor of
the passage through the senate of
the credits bill, were advised in like
manner to ask for higher prices, and
to hold their surplus until they get
what they ask. The psychological ef-
feet will soon be a much higher tone
to the agricultural market, senators
predicted.

CATION Of the deaths of the Kolze
families, Coroner Peter Hoffman an
nounced today, in the effort to trace
down what county officials assert
may be a series Of murders.
Coroner Hoffman ordered exhum-
ed the body of Mrs. Lena Kolze an
aged member of the family. If her
body shows traces of arsenic, as did
those of Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Kolze
and John Deniner, whose widow,
Mrs. Mary Demmer, has been quoted,
Coroner Hoffman said he would ex-
anime a fifth body not related to the
Kolze family, but embalmed by the
same undertakers.
The undertakers assert their en-
balming fluid does not contain arse
mic.
Mrs. Mary Demmer, housekeeper
of Fred Kolze, after the deaths Of
her husband and Mrs. Kolze, is be-
ing detained by the authorities in
connection with the case.
Mrs: Demmer was said to have ad-
mitted caring for her husband and
Mr.. and Mrs. Kolze prior to their
deaths and also was said to have ad-
mitted her liking for Fred Kolze and
her jealousy of him, but denied the
poisoning Of any of the three.
John Demmer died about nine
years ago and Mrs. Kolze died nine
months later. Mrs. Demmer then be-
came housekeeper for Fred Kolze,
whose death occurred several weeks
ago.

DECLINES TO TALK
Suppo,ed Thief and Murderess May
Create Sensation

Orlando, Fla, Aug. 7.-Declining
to make any statement until she is
given permission by her attorneys,
Miss Lena M. T. Clarke, in Jail here
charged with the murder of Freder-
ick Miltimore, restaurant proprietor,
anf of having robbed the mails of
more than s50,0O0, asserted that
when she does consent to speak she
will cause a new sensation.
Many who now criticize her, she
says, will change their viewpoint.
There has been a shortage in the
West Palm Beach post Office for sew
eral months, she said, and added that
she made every effort to place the
blame where it belongs.
Miss Clarke resents the statements
that have branded her as a mystic
and spiritualist. She denied this and
says she is only a member Of the Con
gregational Church, of which her
aged father was a pastor and asserts
she always tried to be conservative
in her speech and habits. She denies
there has been any Bohemianism in
er conduct at West Palm Beach,
where she had lived since childhood.
Miss Clarke is comfortably pro-
vided for in her Jail cell, where she
spends most of her time writing on
a typewriter which was sent her by
a friend.

THE WAR IN SPAIN
Report Tells of Action, Another of
Tranquility.


Madrid, Aug. 6.-An official state
ment issued here today declared
Spanish troops have occupied La
Restinga, a seacoast town in the bay
south of Melilla and have driven off
the enemy which has been attacking
Sukelarach. The enemy suffered
heavy losses, the statement said, and
the Spaniards had two killed and "a
wounded.
Prisoners who have escaped from
Zelvan, report that the defenders
yesterday agreed to evacuate the po-
sition after surrendering arms, but
when the Spaniard surrendered their
arms, the rebels fired on the Span
iards. Among those killed in the en-
gagement was Captain Garasso, who
commanded the position.
Washington, Aug. 6.-The Spanish
embassy was advised today by minis
ter of foreign affairs that complete
Tranquility reigned all over Spain
and public opinion is very encourag-
ed regrding the recuperation of the
territory which has been lost in
Morocco according to the embassy an
nouncement.
The Spanish government will send
all the reinforcements which may be
necessary besides the important ones
which have already been dispatched,
the statement added.

A premature false announcement
that Jack Dempsey had won prepared
the crowds for the official news of
the result when IL finally came
through.
In some places the result was re-
ceived coldly and mention OF Demp-
sey's nams brought forth whistlinss,
cst-cslls and Jsers.
The only sentimental satisfaction
the French fsht fans had was de-
rived from the fact that Carpenter
was able to stand up nearly four
rounds before the powerful American
champion. Material satisfaction arosa

considerable money was won upon him.

He is in his corner, conscious. The

Carpenter rises and pats Dempsey
on the back. That puzzles Dempsey,
who looks his scorn. We don't do
that in America. 1t is almost as
sensational as kissing.
Carpenter is pale and thin and
he is nervous. That is plain. 1t
is not the look of a man confident of
winning, or even expecting to win.
He will be paid 100000, more than
two million francs, for his thirty-six
minutes of fighting. That will leave
him more than a million francs
after the Government takes its
share.
Dempsey, for his thirty-six min
utes, will get 100000, just what
the people pay Harding for four
years in the White House.

Carpenter smiles at Dempsey,
who now looks at him, then starcs
straight at the camera. Carpen-
tier, as a type, would be classified
by anthropologists (word borrowed
from Corbett) as but about ten
thousand years later in history than
Dempsey. The men are so differ
ent In size that it looks like a
little boy about to fight big man.
The magnavox is paying compli-
ments to the public officials that
have allowed the fight.
Looking closely at Carpenter as
he winds the bandages on his wrists,
you think that ne'blow from Demp-
sey should end him. If he wins, it
will be victory of the rapier over the
bludgeon. But that victory to those
knowing neither man would seem ut
terly impossible.
Public officials are introduced.
The ring officials, referee, assistant
referee, timekeeper, etc, are named
by the magnavox.
The fight will begin in a minute.
Carpenter winds the bandages on
his own wrists. He has finished the
left and winds the right. Carpen-
tier will need those baudageS, for
Dempsey's jaw looks like a stoue
wall. II is hard to believe that the
WEIGHT back Of Carpenters fist can
