SECOND HAND GLAND DOCTORS PLAN
MILLIONAIRE PEP FACTORY AT ENSENADA

SAN DIEGO, June 27.-Establish
ment of gland hospitals in isolated
spots, where the spotlight of publicity
will not penetrate, is the next step in
the rejuvenation of middle aged mil
lionaires of America who desire to re-
new the vigor of their youth, physi-
clans believe.
The first step to establish such Il
hospital will probably be taken by DR..
John r. Brinkley, famous Kansas gland
specialist, who recently made a trip to
Ensenada, on the coast of Lower Cali
fornia, to inspect. a site for gland hos
pital.
Ensenada is ideally located. 1t has
neither telephone, telegraph, nor rail
communications with the outside world.
1t is eight hours distant by automobile
from San Diego. 1t is 80 miles below
that city, by air line, and has q good
harbor. Motor ships communicate with
it bi-weekly.
Physicians point out that million
aires wishing to take q new lease on
life could slip in there in their private
yachts, obtain new set of glands,
recuperate in the hospital for a few
days, and then board their yachts
again, and leave for San Diego, Homo
lulu, San Francisco, or Panama, with
out anyone being the wiser

CHICAGO, June 27.-Victory for
union workers before the United
States railroad labor board in cases in
volving contract work may delay the
threatened strike of shop and main
tenance of way employees. Union heads
meeting here today considered post
ponement of the strike as a result of
the board 8 attitude in condemning con-
tract labor as practiced by the rail-'
roads.
Postponement of strike call beyond
July would allow opportunity for the
unions to negotiate for concessions on
wages and working rules. 1t will also
allow opportunity to observe whether
the board s order against contract work
will be obeyed by the railroads.
July Is will be the strike date in
case of a postponement. The original
tentative date for the walkout was

COLLINS CAPTURES
IRISH REBEL CHIEF

DUBLIN, June 81. - Free State
forces today struck at the insurrection
in the heart of Dublin
Michael Collins, head of the provis-
iOnal government, ordered his troops to
arrest COmmandant Michael Henderson,
one of the leaders of the band of
rebels which recently seized and held
the Four Courts buildings and hotel.
The arrest was effected.
This move by Collins was considered
extremely significant. 1t constituted a
direct challenge to Rory O'Connor,
rebel general, who has been defying
both the Free State and Great Britain
to get out of Dublin. The arrest of
Henderson, moreover, showed the Free
State government intends to use no
time in complying with Churchill s ul-
timatum, delivered in Commons yester-
day to restore order.
Lieutenant General O'Connell was
captured by insurgents of the Irish re-
publican army and held as hostage
for Henderson.

EAT WATERMELON
WITH Ell CENTRIC
TOMORROW NIGHT

For three days, Is tons Of choice
watermelons have been sitting
on ice'' awaiting the annual
melonfest Of the Ell Centre cham
ber of commerce In City park to-
morrow night at 1880.
This means that one whole car
load of the luscious fruit, the fin
est grown anywhere, is to be
served to the people of Ell Centre
and vicinity. The chamber Of COM
merce extends a cordial invitation
to all.
The committee in charge of the
melonfest, guarantees it to be the
biggest and best feed of water
melon ever pulled off in the valley,
and there is no need for anyone
to stay away in the belief that
there will not be enough to go
around.
One thing the committee wishes
to emphasize-there will be no
speechmaking, nor program Of any
kind, other than "come and eat
your fill, and listen to the Holt
vile band play the latest and best
music.
The park will be well lighted,
there is absolutely no charge, and
the only requirement is that folks
bring their own spoons. To some,
that Is unnecessary advice. Any
how, the only real way to eat
watermelon is to dig right down
into it with natures own imple-
ments, thereby getting a combin-
alton meal and bath. ..
A corps of young ladies from the
California Central Creameries,
under the supervision Of Manager
r. H. Cary, will have charge of
cutting and serving the melons
and will see to 1t, that everybody
gets enough. Likewise there will
be seconds for those who have
room for more.
The only risk the committee is
taking, before the hour for the
feast to begin is that Jean Hudson
is liable to get loose among those
melons, and if he should-good
night melons, and melonfest. Jean
has promised to content himself
with 10 of the biggest melons in
the bunch (for starter) and the
rest can divide the remainder.
If there is anybody in Ell Cen
tro Thursday morning, who can
say he did not have any water
melon yet this year, it will be his
own fault.
Fred Nebel-Thau and e. w.
Judy Of the entertainment CON-
mittee will have charge Of the
evenings program assisted by
the following committees:
Transportation and icing, r. P.
Moore and Il. H. Cary; grounds,
j. r. Ford, George Brown, Howard
Myers and Charles Sones; lighting,

COLORADO FLOOD OF
1922 THING OF PAST

In official report to the board of
directors of the Imperial Irrigation dis
tfict today, Ray S. Carberry, chief en-.
gineer, says:
"From all reports Of the flood con-
ditions of the Colorado river we are
undoubtedly justified in reporting that
the 1922 flood is a thing of the past
and, barring the always probable and
unexpected happenings, conditions now
existing are highly favorable.
owe have passed through the flood
without any water reaching the Saiz
levee; with very little water in Vol
cano lake and absolutely no breach in
our first line of defense from Hanlon
heading to. below the mouth of the

Conditions warrant the report that
our levee system and protection as a
whole is in much better condition since
the flood than it was at the begin
ning'

BODY IN DITCH MAY
HAVE BEEN OFFICER

With n bullet hole in his head, the
body of an unidentified man was found
in an irrigation ditch along the inter
national boundary line this morning,
about three miles east of Cal
lexico by two men, who noti-
fled authorities at Caleyico. Coro.
ner F. w. Peterson viewed the body,
concluding it had evidently been in
the water about two days. 1t was
badly decomposed.
From a paper found on the body, it
is believed the man was an American
citizen of Mexican extraction, the
paper certifying to the receipt of
money for taking prisoner to the Ari-
zona state prison.
1t was impossible to decipher the
name on the paper, but DIR. Peterson
believes the man was possibly an Ari.
zona state officer and has telegraphed
authorities at Yuma for information.
Unconfirmed rumors in Calexico say
there was pitched battle between
Mexican laborers on the other side of
the line some time Sunday, in which
seven or eight are supposed to have
been killed, and it is possible the man
found this morning was in this fight.
The body was buried by the COUNTY
at Imperial this morning, following an
inquest at Calexico, upon which cor
oner's jury will report late this after
noon.

BOOTLECCERS HOLD
UP BOOZE TRAIN

POHOKUS, N. j., June 27.-Eight
bootleggers were driven from a fast
Erie train carrying $4,000 worth of
liquor following an unsuccessful at
tempt at holdup today.
Detective Edward Hamilton fought
off the bootleggers in a pistol battle
in which he was shot down and SER
iously wounded.
Three of the bootleggers were on the
train, and cut an air hose as the engine
roared into deep, concealed cut near
Waldwick. Detective Hamilton climbed
to the top of a car and the yeggmen
opened fire.
-Four bandits concealed near the cut
dashed for the train, revolvers in
hands. Members of the train crew
went to Hamilton s assistance. An
eighth bandit climbed trestle over
the$ cut and shot Hamilton from be-
hind. He fell seriously wounded and
the bandits fled.

Imperial valley daily records on
cantaloupe shipments don't last any
longer these days, than ice cream on

amounted to 557 ears.
1t is believed that by tomorrow, car
load shipments this year will have
passed she amount shipped to the cor
responding date last year. So far, due
to the late season, this years total
shipments have been running behind.
The highest days shipment in 1921 was
reached on year ago today when 29l
ears where shipped. From that time
to the close of the season, shipments
dropped off each day. With practic-
ally $50 ears going out today, ship

GERMANY FIRED BY
RATHENAU FUNERAL

BERLIN, June 27.-Germany was
the murder of Walter Rathenau.
A great general strike was declared in
Berlin on the occasion of the late for
eign minister's funeral.
Trains throughout the country stop
ped their wheels for two minutes at
noon in honor of Rathenau 8 memory.
Communists and socialists held great
meetings in the larger cities, closely
watched by the police and troops who
were called out in full force to prevent
possible disorders.
Royalists plotting, constant through
out Germany since the revolution, has
been carried on openly recently. The
assassination of Rathenau put an end to
this, temporarily at least. 1t caused a
tremendous revulsion of feeling and
stirred liberals to active opposition.
Former Kaiser Wilhelm has been kept
constantly informed of these royalists
activities.
Ten members of a secret organization
which was suspected of being RESPONSE
BILE for the assassination of Erzberger
are under arrest in connection with the
murder of Rathenau. A lieutenant,
Karl Tillesen, whose brother is supposed
to have taken part in the attack upon
Erzberger, also is under arrest at
Frankfort Captain Hoffman, another
suspect, is held.
The funeral of Rathenau, attended by
the entire government and many mem
bers of the diplomatic corps, started
from the Reichstap building where
the body was placed upon bier and
drawn through the streets. Berlin was
in deep mourning.
