lowing musicians: Leader. Joseph L.

piano; Roger MacGibbon, flute: Le-
roy Green, trumpet; Joseph E.

races there is a widespread be-
lief that, when the great beasts
feel the end approaching, they
make their way to some secret hid
ing place in which to die. The whole
question is just as big a mystery as
ever, in spite of the fact that many
attempts have been made to solve
the problem. The districts where
elephants occur in a wild state ave
been secured in all directions in the
hope of discovering the last resting
place of the huge animals, but with
out any result. Quite recently an
other determined attempt has been
made to penetrate the mystery. bur,
up to the present, nothing of any
value has been discovered. AS a
matter of fact the problem has more
than a scientific interest to it. Any
individual who Is so fortunate as 10
find the elephants graveyard viii
certainly have made a fortune. On
this spot there must be huge ac-
accumulation of ivory, a commodity
which is continually increasing in
value.-Scientific American.

ANOTHER MYSTERY
 FOR GAY NIGHT LIFE
New York Police Probing Death Of
 John Suthhen

NEW YORK, August 21.- TWO flashily dressed young women are heinz sought by the police for ques- tioning in connection with the death of John Suthhen, a private secretary. Suthhen was found dead on a lounge in his apartment in central Park, west, yesterday. He was In his shirt sleeves. The ashes in his pipe were still warm.
 Although at first ascribing death to alcoholism, the medical examiner nevertheless ordered an autopsy per formed today. It revealed poison in the stomach and tonight the police decided they were confronted with another murder mystery involving night life in New York.
 The police learned of Suthhen's s death through a telephone call. Two young women and man who gave the name of Robert C. Spohn were in the apartment when the medical eX- aminer arrived.
 A cabinet holding a varied supply of liquor was found in the suite, but there were no indications of a drink ing party having been held there. No glasses. phial or tablets were found and for this reason the police dismissed the theory of suicide.
 Assistant Medical Examiner Con- gales said he had been told by Spohn that Suthhen had been treated re- gently by a doctor for alcoholism. Dr. Gonzales also said he had been informed Suthhen had been on Sat

Lewis Sees Nothing In
 Statement Of PinChot

ATLANTIC CITY, August 27.-- John l.. Lewis, leader of the United Mine Workers of America, could dis cern no "constructive suggestion" in Governor Pinchot's statement to the representatives of the anthracite op- orators and miners at Harrisburg, those close to him declared Monday night.
 Lewis refused to be quoted in con- nection with the days developments at Harrisburg. But it was regarded as significant that Lewis, still weak from his illness, devoted more time Moday to preparing for the strike, whoch he apparently believes is in- evitable, than in receiving reports from and giving information to his lieutenants at Harrisburg.
 The position taken by Lewis, is that everybody would agree with the abstract statement Of the governor with regard to the loss suspension of mining would entail, and that all would likewise agree with the state- ment that a settlement must be on a fair basis.
 The chief difficulty, it was pointed out would appear when Plnchot sought to ajply his abstract ideas to the concrete problems of the an- thracite industry.
 q prefer not to discuss the matter of the Harrisburg conference while it is in session" Lewise said 'The affairs of the United Mine Workers are in the hand of Vice President Phillip Murray and his associated chiefs of the anthracite districts. l have every confidence MT. Murray and his associates will represent the mine workers with exceptional abil- ity and rare discretion
