AWAIT DE VALERA'S TALK
Speech To Be Given At Ennis Today By Famous Irishman Being Eagerly Awaited By Public.

Dublin. Aug. 15.-The address which Ramon De Valera is to make at Ennis today is awaited with general interest as 1t is supposed he will take up the thread of the speech he was making there just a year ago when arrested by the Free State authorities and that he will reafflrm the republi- can party policy.
 Speaking last evening at Limerick, where he stopped off enroute to En- his, Mir. De Valera said the republic was founded where nothing could shake it, namely in the hearts of the Irish people. Once they had the same organization they had in 1917 they would be able to repeat the re- suits of the 1918 elections, and the world would know where they stood. Mir. De Valera is credited with com rlete confidence that the republicans will win the next general election.
 Joseph Devlin speaks today at Dundalk and it is expected that, as leader of the Ulster nationalists, he will have something important to say regarding the attitude of the latter on the boundary question.

Famed MaIamute of Alaska
 Passes With Progress

Anchorage, Alaska, Aug. i5.-The
 Galamute dog, for many years the famed steod Of the north. apparently is destined 10 go. With the coming Of railroads. dog-tcams were driven farther into the interior. And now the prevalence of reindeer herds and the growth of the market garden and the town-lot garden have caused re- strictions 10 be drawn around the malamute until he is coming to be cassed q nuisance in the more settled parts of southern Alaska. The mala- mute had his genesis in the wolves and wild dogs of the north All fowls and quadrupeds were his common prey. But when, in more modern days d malamute began pulling down reindeer and the livestock of farmers, he was. treated as a wolf and hunted down. Owing to the light demand for dogs, it is difficult 10 procure pure bred spociments south of the Yukon, and the one-time aristocrat of the Arctic is becoming mixed with theb lood of SO many mongrels that he has almost lost his identity.

u. S. SUES PAPER
FOR TAX PUBLICITY

Washington, d. C.-While an 1ndict.
ment was being returned against a
Baltimore newspaper for publication
of tax lists there were evidences of q
faction in congress which may make
possible the repeal Of the present pub
licity provision of the revenue law.
The first case instituted by the De
partment of Justice to test the legal
ity of newspaper publication of
amounts paid by taxpayers involved
the Baltimore Daily Post The In
dictment, which was voted by the fed
eral grand jury at Baltimore, named
the Baltimore Post company and con-
tanned five counts. Each count was
based on the publication of the amount
paid by single taxpayer, information
which under the revenue act of 1924
is open to public inspection but with
the right Of newspaper publication in
doubt.
. The indictment against the Balti-
more Daily Post charged that the
newspaper printed income tax lists In
violation of section 3167 of the revised
statutes, despite a warning given by
the Treasury department when public
inspection was ordered.
Attorney General Stone, in announc-
ing the return Of the indictment, said
that he would press for early court
action, and believed that it would be
possible to get the case to the Su-
preme court of the United States be-
fore the court adjourns next spring.
He expressed the. opinion that the de-
PENDANT newspaper would admit the
facts and that the case would be car
ried to the upper court on a demur-
rer.

FURNACE VICTIM
BELIEVED SLAIN

Columbus, Ohio.-Hands other than
her own contrlved the mysterious Gre
nation Of Mrs. Addie Sheatsley.
The middle-aged wife of the Rev.
G. V. Sheatsley was choked to death
before her body was put into the fire
that almost consumed her body In the
furnace of the parsonage of Christ
Lutheran church in the suburb of
Bexley.
These statements were made by the
authorities here
The authorities base their conten-
tons on the report of G. Ell. Long,
chemical expert, who examined the
vital organs of the woman's body. a
report made known to Prosecutor John
r. King.
Chemist Long says that his tests
show that Mrs. Sheatsley never
breathed after her body entered the
furnace and that the body must have
been put on the Goals to be consumed
after she was strangled to death.
The chemist says the woman died
either of strangulatiorl or suffocation,
but he adds that had she died of suffO-
cation there would be traces of carbon
monoxide gas in the lung and esoph-
agus he has tested. He states posi-.
lively that no trace of this gas was
found.

ReU. p. S. Grant Stricken;
Bishop Halted Romance

New York.-Rev. Percy Stickney
Grant is in the New York hospital to
undergo treatment for pernicious
anemia.
The former fighting rector of the
Church of the Ascension, who has
been one of the most prominent fig
ures in American theological circles
for a quarter of century, has been
ailing for weeks.
The long and bitter struggle on the
question of modernism with Bishop
William T. Manning and the refusal
Of that prelate to sanction Doctor
Grants marriage to Mrs. Rita D'Acos-
ia Lydig is now believed to have
weakened the clergyman's mental re-
sources and to have precipitated a
breakdown.
This statement was made at the
New York hospital:
Doctor Grant is a patient here. He
is under observation. DR.. Lewis
Conner Is Doctor Grants physician,
and all inquiries are referred to him."
Asked If Doctor Grant was under
mental observation, the spokesman
for the hospital refused to answer.
