 Iowa Coming Strong A large number of Iowa supE orters are expected to go to the Bowl for morrow. Many alumni of Iowa and other western conference colleges are coming from New York and will oc- cupy a reserved section of seats. The gates will be opened at 1 o'clock and when the game starts at 2:30 it is expected about 50,000 will be on hand. making it the largest early season crowd to see a. game in the Bowl.
 A number of former gridiron stars watched the Blue practice yesterday These included Ted Coy, Foster Rock we'll and Douglas Bomeisler

 Gobs of Gloom at Princeton.
 From Nassau's hill come the report that the Princetonians are prepared for the worst when they meet Col gate tom morrow at Palmer Stadium The Tiger eleven started the season with poorer material than they have had at Princeton for many years, and their showing against Virginia last Saturday was far from impressive.
 With Gilroy placed on the ineligible list Coach William Roper found him self without any particular holdoVer star and in the position where he had to develop not one but a. number of them Consequently the game with Colgate, which used to be merely a preliminary game. may be the one to indicate just how far Roper has ad- vanced in this work. This break in, the continuity of a football system makes real work for a. coach, and som etimes almost impossible work at that.
 Whatever the result of the Prince ton~Colgate game may be I, for one, believe that by the time Princeton is ready to face Yale and Harvard the Tigers will not make quite the puny showing that some expect them to make. Roper has shown that he is a great builder of football teams. He may also demonstrate that he is one of the Znostt rapid of the team mak- arG.

BEGGA.R IS RICH.
Le"less Man Travels Around In a
Sedan.

Frederick Hammitt, 46, legless
beggar extraordinary, in jail in New
Yorw beWailed the misfortune that
had befallen him.
Hammitt, arrested for selling pen
ellis in the police crusade against beg
gars, denies the stories told of his re-
puted wealth. He inisted that he was
a merchant and not beggar.
They say am rich because have
an automobile, the prisoner almost
sobbed in telling his life's story.
because 1 have no legs, may l not
have anything else? I spent $3.50 for
that machine. l wouldn't sell it for
$4,000, but that doesn't say l spent
that much for it.
Il will be rich some day though. In
that sedan of mine is a perfected gear
shift and other apparatus necessary
to a safe operation of an automobile
by person minus one leg or both. l
am going to patent that contrivance,
and then watch. No more selling pen
ellis.
They say I have five bank books
and $4,000 ranch in North Dakota
They lie. They lie. What they meant
is did have all that"
Hammitt then recounted the inter-
esting story of the rise of his fortune
in oil stocks, it's investment in the
farm which reaped large profits and
the loss of almost all his money when
the crops failed and the stock market
went against him. He also told Of the
beautiful four-room apartment that
he converted from barn in Waltham,
Mass, with few hundred dollars re-
naming from the. wreck of his for
tune
Most of the time, Hammitt said, he
drives about the country cooking and
sleeping in his car, comfortably fitted
with a kitchenette, sleeping quarters
and a wardrobe, selling his pencils.
The alleged wealthy mendicant
closed his woeful table with this bit
of philosophical reflection:
"They call me a beggar. They say
1 am an example.
THE Lord has certainly caused me
to be legless so that you people who
have your legs realize how kind He
has been to you"

ing on him. He cured Alice Williams
of pellagra. Alice is a niger that
lives over there. And here the other
day, Mrs. Mollie Nickles sent for Joe
to come to her place quick to, cure
mule that had got cut. When Joe got
there the mule was pretty near dead,
but Joe looked him in the eye and the
blood stopped, and they went back to
plowing. Joe can always stop bleed
ing. He can cure eczema and any kind
of skin disease. l know he can cure
pellagra because he cured my daugh-
ter. Her arms were all red and sore,
but after Joe looked at her scaled off
and she is well,' Mrs. Munday as
serted.
The healer Of Buzzard Roost says
the power to heal can be transmit
ted from a female to a male mem
Der of his family, but not to one
of the same sex. For instance, a
mother can transmit the power to a
son. The power has been in his fam
lily for generations, Munday claims.
The healer is heavy set and free
kled. He farmed until his wife died
and his children all married; now
he does little but hunt and heal. He
is a Methodist and believes devoutly
in his religion.
Throughout his section of the
country the strange hunters power
is known and respected. Many of his
neighbors corroborate the stories of
cures that sound miraculous. Few of
them scoff and many of them insist
that they believe Munday is en-
dowed with some supernatural gift.
He rarely ventues far from home,
going to Abbeyille only occasionally
on Saturdays.

PEOPLE WITHOUT A BOSS
Little Island i'm Atlantic Has No Civil
OF Military Head.


South America, in the middle of the
Atlantic Ocean, live a people without
BOSS, writes Rhoda Lee Dodge in
the Mentor Magazine. Their country
is the Isand of Tristan da Cunha,
named after himself by the Portu-
guese explorer that discovered it
four hundred years ago. A volcanic
peak, eight thousand feet high, tops
the island; at it's base are tall cliffs
that rise like gray tombstones over
the graveyard of ships. Diving down
to the Antarctic, storms sweep ships
impotently before them on to the
rocks of Tristan da Cunha and the
adjacent Nightingale and Inacces-
sible islands. Most of the islanders
were unwilling visitors; they had no
choice, but reached the forbidding
shores in torn and dripping clothes,
or no clothes at all-sailors saved
from shipwreck.
A century ago, England sent. troops
there to watch for ships that might
try to rescue Napoleon, who was con-
fined on st. Helena, thousand miles
away. When the troops were recalled
William Glass, a soldier, and his wife
asked to stay. AS years passed and
the toll of wrecked ships grew, Glass,
his family, and the castaways be-
came British colony. Wives were
imported and an annual mail service
supplied. The mail service was dis
continued, however, when it was dis
covered that scarcely a dozen pieces
ha been delivered in a year. A tele-
scope and set of flags are now the
sole means of communication. At the
cry of ''Sail ho!" boats put to sea
and cross the dangerous waters to
barter vegetables, mutton, and wild
cat skin for -four, seeds, rat poison,
needles. cloth, and candles; and to
hear the news and perhaps get mail.
Rat poison is an important import,
for the island swarms with rodents
from stranded vessels. Wrecks are
common.
Actually, nose of the colonists need
stay. The British have repeatedly Of
fered to move them to a friendlier
country. Some left, but returned
later, bringing families with them to
share the easy going life. SO the pop
ulation fluctates. At present there
are about one hundred men, women,
and children living there. They rep
resent several nationalities; but Eng
lish is the language spoken.
Most of the wivesare dark-skinned.
The only woman contributed to the
colony by the sea was an East Indian
stewardess from Calcutta.
Houses in the village of Edinburgh
at the foot of the mountain, are
strongly built to resist storms, and
are furnished with cabin doors, ward
room tables, copper pots, and other
salvage.
The refugees have no civil or mill
tary head, no council or court of law.
Each man is his own boss. For sixty
years, Peter Green, a Dutch sailor,
acted unoficially as Judge, but when
he died in 1902 no one succeeded
him. Crimes and disputes are rare.
On the whole island there are pro-
badly not twenty-five dollars in cur
rency. Crops and goods are equally
shared, and when the population is
increased by wreck, the cost of main
tanning the newcomers is cheerfully
divided among all the settlers.
