study Of stenography," the father
continued. she had a position
throughout the war in the Nordyke
and Marmon office; but that ended
with the war and three or four places

keep up her spirits in her hunt for a
good place"
She seemed pleasant at different

when I started over to my married
daughters to help her sew, I stopped
at the door and called to Madaline
with her fathers favorite remark,
Come hook the gate. Madaline.'

The women. detectives say. have no
connection with the deeds Of the al
legged gang so far as is known. They
are detained because they admit their
homes are IN C~larksburg, said de-
t~ectives. who believe the women know
something about the operations OF the
alleged gang.
Chief Wolf a week ago notified the
Indianapolis department to watch for
members Of the bang and Inspector OF
Detectives John Mullin Immediately
detailed two detectives to locate the
suspects.
The raid was made by Detectives
Allen, Radamacher, Conway DeRos-

No firearms We're found.
The officers are puzzled by the fact
that both men under arrest here have
scars on their foreheads and noses.
This was one Of the marks of identif-
cation given by Clarksburg police.
Stories Confused
While the men admitted they are
from C~larksburg, they denied all con
nection with the alleged black hand
gang. The confused stories Of the
women and the fact that the men re-
fused to talk much caused the detec-
tives today to believe they know far

New York, Oct. 19.-The first
man may have been woman.
This is the opinion expressed by
Professor J. Howard McGresor,
research associate in human anat-
omy of the American Museum oil
Natural History. who recently re-
turned from Europe. where he
studied the fossil remains of the
Pithecanthropus Erectus or man

The specimen was discovered at
Trinil, Java. by Professor Eugene
Dubois of the University of Am,
s,erdam.
Many experts have written
about the missing link" with the
Pithecanthropus Erectus as their
subject.
Professor McGregor said the
idea that the ''man-ape" may have
been a ''woman-ape" is based on
measurements of the left thigh
bone.
Instead of being straight up and
down like n mans. il has an obli-
guilty Of form similar TO wo-
mans.
Professor McGreyor said he was
of the opinion that the specimen
was close TO man, although not
necessarily ancestral.
