STOP JAZZ DANCE
TO AVOID WARTS

BOSTON. Feb. 23.-The latest
indictment against jazz dancing is
that 10 causes warts on the feet.
The charge was brought here by the
Massachusetts Chiropody Associa-
ton. now in session.
According TO experts who ad-
dressed the convention. "the vibra-
ton OF bodies made tense by the
gripping gusto OF Jazz and thrown
like trip hammers upon weary feet
causes myriads of minute abrasions
through which hlterable virus en-
ters the skin" Hence the warts.

America Building An
 other Monster Airship

Philadelphia.-A monster dirigible, the ZR-i, is being built in the aircraft factory of the Philadelphia navy yard. It is to be fully as big as that ill fattd leviathan of the air, the ZR-2, which collapsed and fell flaming ipto the Hull river in England last summer, bring ing a terrible death to more than a score of it's crew. AS fast as the parts are completed here they are sent to 1ho hangar at. Lakehurst, N. J., which will be the home port of the giant air ship. IL is expected that by next April 9he ZR.l will be ready for it's first light.
 A principal difference between the Philadelphia-bu built dirigible and that which collapsed oyer Hull is the strengthening of every second dur aluminum ring, instead of every third ring, as in the ZR-2. This strengthen ing is accomplished by tying each sec aion of the 25-sided rings (polygons), which will make up the framework, wibh the'strongest possible strands of copper wire. Seventy miles of such copper wire will be used, and the re- sul6, it is said, will give the framework q resistance greater even than if con- structed of steel Duraluminum, is an alloy of aluminium and copper, and is lsed because of it's qualities of light ness and staength.
 The work Of assembling the ZR.l is already under way at Lakehurst under command Of Commander Noraeet. Three of the ribs are erected in the hangar, and the keel will be completed vithin few weeks.
 The envelope will be TOO feet long and 85 feet in maximum diameter. It will be cigar-shabed. The cloth will he Of staple back-spun cotton one inch in thickness.

Never Marry Without Love,

Investigation into. AL leged Short Measure Gasoline Tanks to Be gin Monday.

Sealer of Weights and Measures William H. Beloin will conduct an in- vestigation of alleged short measure gasoline pumps, according to an an nouncement made today. Alleged charges have been registered at his office that there are pumps in various sections of the city that are giving short measure.
 Though Sealer Beloin does not be- Iieye that there are a great many of these types of, pumps in the city, nev- ertheless he will conduct a rigid fn- vestigation and will prosecute all short measure dealers.
 The investigation will begin Mon day of next week. Most of the gas pumps in the city are sealed, MT. Beloin stated today in contradiction of a report that very few of the gas pumps in the< city were without his seals. He further contradicted the re- port that many of these seals had been removed by certain dealers. -
 No action will be taken to prose- cute dealers who water their gasoline, he said. In New Haven, the sealer Of weights and mea sures has taken sew eral dealers into cpurt when the qual- ity of their gasoline was not up to standard,

Chicago, July 15.-(BY THE A. P.) The peace dove, which yesterday fit ted between separate gatherings of railroad executives and leaders of the striking shop crafts, today bore a somewhat wi1ted olive branch which Ben W.

 Mir. Hooper announced that he had encountered ''fundamentaP' difficult ties in his efforts to bring about peace but; with more parleys in prospect, the situation gave promise Of a new approach to a settlement, or at least to negotiations.
 Railheads and strike leaders moved close enough together to meet in sep arate rooms at the same hotel where MT. Hooper was at least somewhat convenienced in his peace missions.

Coroner Phelan Holds Imminent
 Death Hearing

An imminent death inquest was held today by Coroner John J. Phe- Ian, eoncerning the. accident yester- day morning when. AThomas Christie Dunicrescu, nine Wears, 1234 Rail- road avenue, was struck by an auto mobile owned by Harry Ford of this city.
 The car was being; operated at the time of the accident by Peter Prau of 1892 Main street, who claimed this morning before the coroner that he was an experienced driver, having driven a car for a period of five years.
 PrauX rushed the boy and one of his companions to the Emergency pr. F. J. O'Brien, who transferred him to St. Vincent's Hospital Bonds of S1,000 were furnished for the driver by the owner of the car.
 vatsky, nine years old, was the prin- cipal witness. He told the coroner how, while he was sitting in front of his fathers store on State street. the other boys, were attempting to ''hook' a ride on the rear of a passing truck, going west on State. street. They were unsuccessful and crossed on the rear of an ice wagon.
 When the ice wagon stopped one of the boys ran across the street and was nearly hit by a passing automo- from behind the ice wagon and was l struck by the Ford sedan operated by Prall.
 The critical condition of the boy, of the skull, was such that an in quiry was necessary to ascertain whether the driver was responsible I for the accident or not. 1 The hospital reported today that 1 the boy was resting little more 1 comfortably than last night
