EVERYBODY IN
WASHINGTON is
VERY PANICKY

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-Wash-
.ngton is rumor mad and politicians
are literally hysterical with fright.
Every man in public life who ever
bought Il share of oil stock is afraid
his name will be dragged into the
Teapot Dome scandal. Men who had
more damaging connections with the
leading figures i'll the case are wait
ING in a sort of numb terror for the
blow to fall ON them.
The result is that the whole 1924
presidential campaign has been turn
Cd topsy turvy.
William G. McAdoo, drawn sud
denly into the oil picture in a way
that threatened to smash lrretriev-
ably his presidential aspirations, will
try to turn the scandal to his ad-
vantage. He has summoned to his
standard, all, regardless of party,
who feel so outraged by the senate
revelations that they are talking
grimly of Il third party and La Fol
lette for president.
McAdoo will put his fate to the
February Is. Having explained in
vigorous language that his connec-
tion with K. l.. Doheny had no
reference to the oil leases, he is
confident today not only that his
Democratic followers will reaffirm
their faith, but that new adherents
will flock to him.
But there is still a great deal OF
misgiving among the Democrats
about McAdoo. 1t is evidenced III
new booms for Cordell Hull, Ten
nesSee, chairman of the Democratic
national committee, and Homer
Cummings, Connecticut, former chair
man.

Los ANGELES, Feb. l4.-Barh-
ara La Mar, screen actress, has told
ncr story. and the trial of Herman l..
Roth, attorney, accused Of attempt
iug to evtort money from her man
agcr, Arthur Sawyer, was to be re-
sumed today, minus the big mo-

examined at today'S court session,
continuing the story he was telling
mt adjournment yesterday OF how,
me said, Roth called him 70 his Holly
wood office and demanded $4,000,
undcr threat OF filing an dmc"ded
divorce complaint naming Miss La
Mayr rs defendant, and claiming
she had been intimate with seven
mon.
'Iic said he had one that named
~ correspondents, but had decided
not to present that, " Sawye. tcsti-
fled near the close of Yesterday s
session.
There is bare possibility that
Miss In Mari may be recalled to
the witness stand, but not unless
some new evidence demands het
presence.
She wcpt copious!v while size avs
wered questions yesterday, and once,
when she accused defense attorneys
of insulting her, beat her hands
against hey breast.
It was brought out that the =" COO
beautiful giri' - is working III pic
tures under a contract which assures
her $1,000 Il week for the frs, year,
$500 the second and $1,000 third.

UNCLE WIGGILY VALENTINE

"Tsng-a.ling-a-ling, rang the
door ben in Uncle Wigsi 5 hollow
stun? bungalow.
"Im so see who il Is, offered
Nurse Jane Fuzzy Nnzzy.
Be careful it isn't the WooMe
Wolf, warned the bonny rabbit
gcntlcmaH.
I'm look through the side win
dow before / open the door, SAID
Nurse Jane. And when She came
back from the door Uncle Wiggily
asked:
"Who was it''
no one at ALL replied Miss
Fuzzy Wuz7y. II guess the bell
has fung itself.
But !. tiug!ed again, the bell did,
and Uncle W;ggily said:
.EIl go this time. It's prohab-
" some Of the animal boys or girls
PLAYING tricks on us.
Uncle Wigsuy looked from the
>ide window, but SAW no one on the
porch. Then he opened the door.
No one vas there but on the mat
were some envelopes. Picking them
mp Uncle Wiggily saw his name,
aud also that Of Nurse Jane Fuzzy
Nuzzv. ON the envelopes.
'.Oh-thc mail!" cried the musk
rat lady house keeper when Uncle
Wiggiiy brought them in.
" "No-valentines,' cried the bun
ny. We forgot that thIs is St.
Valentines day. No one will ever
he there at the door when the bell
rings ta5a., but the Valentines viii
be left
"Thats 5 so,'' spoke the nnrsc
lady; I had forgotten about the
valentines. We must not know who
sends them. Uncle Wiggiy.
There were cabbage valentines,
and beet valentines, and cheese
valentines aud carrot v.dcntincs--
all kinds that TncIe WigSiiy and
H. musEsat laly housePeePer liked
very much. Rat there was nothing
or aay of the valentines to tell who

MIAMI ADVERTISES HERSELF
AS SECOND LOS ANGELES
REAL ESTATE GAME BOOMING

"Los Angeles of Florida" One of
the nearby real estate tracts has
been named NHollywood."
Millions of dollars are pouring iii
to the city and millions are being
spent in advertising real estate.
Realtors hire bands which parade
the streets in rubber neck wagons
and have yachts and huge, luxuri-
Gus busses to convey customers to
the various tracts and new towns
which are springing up everywhere.
Because of the proximity Of the
British West Indies, liquid dclrca-
cIes areoavailable at low rates, and
of course, reputed to be the import
ed varieties, rather than the home
grown which dominate the markets
of the north.

I'a. Hal laughed the rabbit
gentleman. Now | am going out
and give some valentines myself
He left the loving tokens at the
homes Of Sammie and Susie Little
tan, the rabbits; at the tree-house of
Johnnie and Billie Bushytail, the
squirrels: at the kennelhouse of
Jackie and Pcetic Bow Wow, the
puppy dogs, and at the tree of Bob
bic and Bette ringtail the raccoons
At no place didUncle Wiggily let
himself be seen. For he would slip
up, leave the valentines on the steps,
ring the bell and run away, just as
those did who had left valentines
at his hollow stump bungalow.
"Wcll, J have had a most jolly
time" said Uncle Wiggily to him
self, as he started to hop back home.
Valentine giving is lots of fun
" "A-hem!" suddenly coughed a
loud voice near by.
"Who is that!'.' cried the bun
ny. And what did YOU 'av?'
- am the Fuzzy Fox, - vas tho
answer, land say that it is lots
of fun TO nibblc your cars. Come

Pc thought, this might max, him
more kind, 20 lie woullu' do any
uibbliug. But the rabbit had given
away his last valentine TO Jillic
/ Lougtail, the mouse girl.
{ However, as Mr., LoHgcars looked

the bunny thought Of plan.
"shut your eyes, Mr.. Fox" he
said. So the Fox shut his eyes. At
/ once Uncle Wiggily ticklcd the
| Fox very hard in the ribs.
"Ouch," cried the Fox.
/ ella, Hal There's q valentine

You did that. Nou tickled me -
howled the Fox.
"IIow do you know - asked I'm
clo Wiggily. 3" You had your eyes

So tLe Fox did, and this time
! Uncle Wig9ily caught up stone
from the bottom Of the dark and

bunny banged the Fox very hard On
his nose.
"Wowelie Ouchic." howlcd the
Fox.
"Ha! la. There S another va

"'You did thai! You banged me

"How do you know: ?" asked Tn.
