IF SKIN BREAKS
OUT AND ITCHES
APPLY SULPHUR

Just the moment you apply Mentho-
Sulphur to an itching, burning or broken
out skin, the itching stops and healing
begins, says a noted skin specialist This
sulphur preparation, made into a pleas
ant cold cream, gives such quick relief,
even to fiery eczema, that nothing has
ever been found to take its place.
Because of it's germ destroying prop
critics, it quickly subdues the itching,
cools the irritation and heals the eczema
right up, leaving~a clear, smooth skin
in place OF ugly erqptiops, rash, pimples
or roughness
You do not have to wait for improve
ment. 1t quickly shows. You can get
little jar of Rowles Mentho Sulphur at
any drug store. ~

they were called.
They made a great deal of noise all
the time and squeaked and chatted
steadily.
Some people came and watched the
geese and the swans and the ducks
and the more they were watched the
more they talked. hoping that the
people could understand all that they
said.

JEAN ACKER SEEKS DIVORCE
FROM RODOLPH VALENTINO

Los Angeles, May 17-Jean Acker
film acress, from whom Rodolph Val
entino, film actor, obtained an inter
locutory degree of divorce a few
months ago, was under instruction to
report today to the district attorneys
office to tell what she knows of the
facts in the court action which gave
Valentino a decree but left him tech
nically her husband for a year.
Thomas McCleland, deputy district
attorney, sent summons to Miss
Acker and at the same time assigned
investigators to learn whether Valen-
tino committed bigamy, according to
the California laws, when he married
Winifred Hudnut, dancer and film art
director, known professionally as
Natacha Rambova, at Mexicali, last
Saturday.
Los Angeles superior court judges
have stated informally that such a
marriage as that of Valentino and
Miss Hudnut is bigamous.
Miss Hudnut's name was intro
duced into the divorce trial through
the Identification of a picture of her
and Valentino.
The first legal action was taken by
Miss Acker. She filed a suit for sep
arate maintenance declaring Valen-
tino had not supported her. She as
serted that when she married him he
had nothing; that partly through
her efforts he gained fame as an
actor and then he failed to support
her.
On a cross-complaint, Valentino
filed bill for divorce, declaring that
Miss Acker had deserted him. He
made the declaration that he wanted
her and loved her." that he would
take her back if she would go, bacl,
TO him.
According to Douglas Gerard, film
director and groomsman at Valen-
tino's marriage to Miss Hudnut, the
bridegroom entered into the cere-
mony in good faith. Valentino was
lat Palm Springs. Cal, he said, and
expected to remain tn ere until Sep
tember.

Up To Lakeland To Decide
Continuance In State League

Whether Lakeland is to continue to
be member of the Florida State
League depends entirely on the CO.
operation given by the people of this
community who are interested in
clean sport. A situation has developed
which means an early decision one
way or the other 1t has been known
for some time that simply through the
sportsmanlike generosity of President
Claire, Henley and Secretary John
Melton has it been possible to con-
tinue the series with Lakeland in the
running. The attendance at the ball
park has been painfully small, indi-
eating real Indifference or a loss
of interest in good ball. In any event
1t is now up to Lakeland to say wheth-
er professional baseball is to be con-
tinued as an entertainment feature in
the summer life of Lakeland. An at
tendance Of at least 400 will be re-
quired to break even on the matter of
expense. Il costs about $4,000 a month
for salaries and travelling expenses of
the Lakeland team, so it can easily be
figured out just what has to be done
IL the series Is to be continued. With
Lakeland in the, second place and
playing a splendid article of ball,
there is every incentive for the base.
ball fan to rally to the cause. Messrs.
Henley and Melton cannot be expect
ed to carry the load alone The news
papers Of the city have promised to
lend their cooperation to the extent
of informing the public just how mat
ters stand and to continue to give
ample publicity both prior to and fol-
lowing each game. The best evidence
Of realization Of the seriousness of
the situation will be the appearance
at the pay gate out at the ball park
Every little bit will help, and the citi-
gems can III they will put this thing
over In creditable manner. 1t is es-
timated that in a city the size Of

BOMB OUTRAGE
HAS CHICACO'S
POLICE ACTIVE
Some Startling Revelations Made
Showing Firm Hold Anarchists
Have Tried To Take

Chicago, May 17l-Police today
searched for uneXploded bombs be-
lieved to have been placed in a $780,
900 apartment building in North Chi
cago which was damaged last night
by fire which police say was started
by terrorists in connection with the
Chicago labor war. Another de-
velopment on which authorities con-
centrated their efforts today was the
confession said by police to have
been obtained yesterday from Mrs.
Margaret Miller, wife of John Miller
now under arrest as the alleged driver
of the death car" from which shots
were fired killing two policemen early
last Wednesday in the labor feud Po-
lice connect the firing of the building
with labor disorders through a man
who warned two women in an adjoin-
ing building to escape before their
building caught fire. He ran down
the steps shouting ITO hell with the
Landis award"
The building, damaged by fire with
an estimated loss of 100000, was be-
ing erected under the Landis award
a decision handed down by X. NJ. Lam
dis, former federal judge, which was
intended to end disputes between
contractors and the Chicago Building
Trades Council. The structure was
built by a contractor who denied re-
ceiving threats from labor men.
The force of 100 men employed in
construction are divided in two class
es, steam filters and masons working
under the Landis award and carpen-
ters and plumbers, working under the
old union scale.
That the fire was set has been prov
en- beyond a doubt, police say, for it
was started on the first and second
floor in various parts almost stimuli
taneously.
The questioning of Mrs. Miller, po-
lice say, brought a full confession
from her in which the names of other
occupants of the death car" were
given and it was substantiated by
previous confession said to have been
obtained from her husband Police
said Mrs Miller admitted caring for
the occupants of the bandits car who
were supposed to have been wounded
by shots from the policemen's pistols.
Mrs. Miller also admitted sitting in
conference with labor leaders at
which bombings and attacks were dis
cussed police said. and admitted
knowing that explosives were kept in
her home to be used by labor men in

Freight Crew Play
Part of Good Samari-
tans To Stranded Tour
ist on Lonely Road

AS Mrs. E. C. Brokaw stopped her
car a short distance out of Lakeland
on the Auburndale road this morning
at 2:30, she was overtaken by three
men in a Ford truck, who made off
with her Ford Sedan and it's contents
leaving her penniless and defenseless
on lonely road.
Fortunately freight crew came by
on the railroad and she was given
transportation to Haines City and
funds to take her to Jacksonville,
where she was to meet her parents.
Mrs. Brokaw left st. Petersburg
Tuesday afternoon, choosing the night
time for driving because of the cooler
temperature and the lighter traffic on
the roads. She carried with her a As
Colt automatic pistol, besides $100
worth of jewels, SO in money, and
some wearing apparel, but left all
these possessions in the car when she
got out to see to the tail light, which
she thought was not working as the
dashlight was out of commits sion.
While she bent to her task a Ford
truck drove up from the direction of
Lakeland carrying three men. When
they asked if she was alone she ex-
pected their assistance, but to her
amazement, two of the men, who got
in her car, drove on with i. while the
third started back toward Lakeland
with the truck, the members Of the
party saying farewell to each other
with "See you later"
Mrs. Brokaw found herself absolute
ly stranded in a strange part OF the
country. She made her way to the
crossing near Elliott's sandpt and
there tagged the freight crew as it
approached. In the crew were A. C.
Hooks, H. H. Griggs and J. P. Ander-
son.
At the residence of George Ritter,
the party stopped long enough to no.
tify the Lakeland police and Officer
Whiting answered the call, but was
handicapped by the fact that the wom-
an had not waited to be interviewed.
She rode on to Haines City with the
freight crew and Mr.. Hooks, Mr..
Griggs and Mr.. Anderson made up
purse sufficient to carry her to Jack
sonville and she proceeded on her way
when Train No. so went up today.
Mrs. Brokaw believes that the truck
containing the three men had fol
lowed her out of Lakeland.
She also said that in about twenty
minutes after she had been left strand
