ADVICE WELL WORTH TAKING
No Doubt Driver Of Car Realized
Afterward That His Sarcasm
Really Was Wasted.

A big passenger car was a victim
| of the sleet in Central avenue. The
driver tried valinntly to keep 1t in
the middle Of the street but one hind
wheel slipped over q little, the driver
tried to stop the boat" the rear
wheel slid along the cur track-well,
auto drivers know the rest.
When the car stopped sliding its
two rear wheels rested against the
curb and its two front ones were on
Ike car track. Then ensued much
speeding up Of the engine and much
whizzing Of rear WHEELS, but no for
ward movement.
"What's the matter: trying to get
away from the curh!" a bystander
asked.
"Oh no. I'm polishing the pavement
so the kids can lave some fun" sar-
iastically exclaimed the driver of the
Car.
"Well, If you'll Just cut that engine
down and slip her out of high into
low. I'll give You Il little shove and
you'll walk right away from the curb"
the interlop"r said.
The advice vas followed.the wheels
ceased their mad whr and the car
under the gentle urge Of the bystander,
moved away, Indianapolis News.

RIO DE JANEIRO, Sept. 6 (By The
Associated Press) s).--After rousing re-
ception in the harbor in which the
warships Of eight nations, including
Mexico took part, Secretary Hughes
and other members of the American
mission to the Brazilian Centennial
Exposition plunged to-day into series
OF official functions which will con-
tlnue during the six-day stay of the
American Secretary of State
The special ambassadors and dele
gates of thirty three nations were re-
ceived this afternoon by President
Pessoa at the official residence, and an
immense crowd gathered on the plaza
and cheered the representatives as they
arrived and departed. A large number
of Americans were in the crowd and
the Hughes party received tremendous
ovation. All but the delegates from
the United States were in more or less
brilliant uniforms, bands were playing
everywhere and the main streets Of the
city were blazing with color.
After the official reception the wife
of the President gave an equally
brilliant reception to the members and
wives of all the official parties. The
American mission was entertained to-
night by the American Ambassador,
Edwin V. Morgan. Secretary Hughes
gave the warmest praise to the Brazil
ians for their hospitality and was par
ticularly enthusiastic over the scenic
beauties Of the city.

SYDNEY. N. S., Sept. 6.-The auxil-

carrying Donald B. Macmillan and

ing from Baffin Bay.
The expedition set out from Boston
year ago and has been in the Arctic
regions since that time. Mr.. MacMillan
said he had succeeded in penetrating
into the frozen Arctic along the west
ern coast of Baffin Land to point
never before reached by white man.

points in and about the western coast
OF Baffin Land are astronomically in

"The geography of that country has
been wrong for years back, and in fact

One Arrested i'm Feud
Fight That Kills Four
Two Fathers and Sons OF Prom

Drug Store Battle

HOUSTON, Tex, Sept e.-Oficials
of Austin County late to-day arrested
John Miller, charging him with as
sault to murder in connection with
fight resulting in the deaths of four
men, members of prominent families
of the county, in shooting und cut
ting affray in drugstore at Lealy
Tuesday. 1t was said that three others
were being sought in connection with
the affair.
The father and one son Of each fam
lily of Luther Bell and Frederick
Schaffner, of Lealy, are dead as the re-
suit of an old feud, the deaths being
precipitated by fistic encounter be-
tween Thomas Bell and Robert Schaff-
ner. at Cat Springs several days ago.
The difficulty arose, it is said, when
Schaffner passed a remark about a
woman companion of Bell. The two
surviving members of the two families
are Ernest Schaffner, suffering from
severe knife wounds, and Foster Bell,
slightly cut about the body. 1t is now
believed that Schaffner will recover.

rable Mark of Sept. Z. 1881

rabie Mark OF Sept. Z. 1851
1t was hot all right, yesterday, but,
ooh, gosh, keep in the shade to-day"
said the weather man, when he was
questioned last night. Back in 1881
the mercury went up to 100 on Septem-
ber 7 for record that stood until
August Z, 1918. So it's always apt
to be sultry on September 7, if
precedent counts.
Yesterday was so bad that the
weather man got mad when he was
told that the coal peace was likely to
be ratified any moment. he said his
only hope was that he'd never see any
thing hot again in his life, and thought
Governor Miller's fuel czar was right
in canceling the 1oo,o0o,-ton emergency
order.
"I'd have done it, too, to-day" he
said.
Coming down to figures, he said
yesterday was hotter than any other
day this summer, except July 13 and
August IT, and he thought it was like
ly to be worse to-day than it was on
those two days, when the top mark
was 81. Yesterday it was 80 degrees
at 4 p. M, and at p M, it was 85 or
more from before noon until after Z
o'clock.
The weather man said he felt a
breeze about the middle of the after
noon, but no confirmation of the re-
port could be obtained from other
sources. 1t, rained some last night,
enough to cool the city off noticeably.

Hearst Backers Revive
Cubernatorial Boom
Hope TO Sidetrack Nomination
of Smith by Threatening
Third Ticket
Special Dispatch to 7-he yrfburs


SYRACUSE, Sept. 6.-Attempts ara
being made in various upstate districts
to revive the gubernatorial boom for
William Randolph Hearst with the oh
ject in. view of making a show Of
strength at the state convention here
this month in an effort to sidetrack the
nomination of Alfred E. Smith.
The Hearst workers, according To
word received by local leaders, are 60
ing about their jobs quietly, planning
on securing sufficient strength to 90 to
Charles F. Murphy on the night before
the convention and warn him against
naming Smith, under threats of Hearst
heading third ticket and attacking
Smith. Should this materiaIize the or
ganization Democrats declare Smith
will come to the convention and from
the platform will tell the world exactly
what he thinks of William Randolph
Hearst. This opinion is far from being
fiattering, they say. Some of the up-
state leaders incline to the belief they
cannot win with Hearst opposition and
are talking about Supreme Court jus
tice Robert F. Wagner as a compromise
candidate.
