SECOND MYSTERY PUZZLES COAST: CHEMIST IS SLAIN
Los Angeles Police Be- lieve Killers Sought Se-
 cret Whiskey Formula
lBy Associated Press. ]

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 29.-The slay- ing of Fred W. Ferrer, French chemist, whose body was found yesterday in a suburban cottage, has confronted south. ern California authorities with another murder mystery.
 Police today worked upon the theory that Ferrer had been killed for a secret liquor formula which he carried. Their investigation was handicapped by an inability to gain more than meager knowledge of the slain mans past life and habits.
 Even Ferrer's wife knew little about him. "He was my husband. It's all l know" she told police detectives. Fer Ter came to America five years ago from Toulous, France. He was employed here as a chemist at manufacturing plant.

BRITISH TROOPS
 CONTROL SUDAN
 AFTER MEETING
2 British Officers Killed In Uprising-Egyp-
 tians Slain
Heased Wire to The Age-Herald.) )

CAIRO, Nov. 29. - Khartoum, scared with the bitter wounds which resulted when fanatical Sudanese troops turned against the British garrison, is again under the control of English guns and soldiers, but only after one of the most determined bits of fighting that has confronted England recently in any part of her vast colonial empire.
 With communications restored be- tween Khartoum and Cairo, despatches told today of the mutineers' surrender to the British and the situation appar- ently is now well in hand. Under the bombardment of British guns trained on the hospital compound where the rebellious Sudanese had quartered themselves, the surrender was forced and the rebels taken prisoners.
 Details of the fighting which accom- panied the mutiny, revealed in official communiques and press dispatches, dis close the violent character of the insur- rection. Two British officers were killed in the operations and eight pri- yates wounded. At least fifteen Su- danese were killed. The mutineers were confined to two Sudanese platoons, whose armament included two machine guns and rifles. The conduct of the other native troops was said to have been excellent.

LONDON CONFIRMS MEETING

'A
 LONDON, Nov. 29.-(By Associat ed Press. )-Additional news of the Khartum mutiny from offical reports shows that it was much more serious than at first appeared and entailed numerous casualties in the confused fighting, which followed Acting Sirdar Huddelston's courageous, but ineffec- tual facing of the armed mutineers and his attempt to reason with them before giving the order to overpower them.
 There still are no precise details of the motives for the mutiny, but there appears to have been no repetition of extension of it. According to the lat est advices, both Egypt and the Sudan remain tranquil. The students agita- tion, however, still is threatening, and all efforts by the authorities to pacify them are fruitless.
 Official quarters profess no anxiety that anything serious may arise in the Sudan, despite the comparative small ness of the British garrison, because the Sudanese troops are allowed only small supplies of ammunition and could not carry out serious revolt unless they obtained supplies surreptitiously.

RORAH AND THE BONUS

Borah arguing for recognition of
the Russian soviet as an aid to sop
ping communistic propaganda is not
arguing like the able lawyer he is.
That recognition would be an aid
rather than a stopping of such propa-
experience with the dissemination Of
German propaganda by means c.
German officials in the United States.
Borah argued against the evidence
and to support his personal attitude,
based on what appears to be feeling
Of sympathy for the Missionaries try
ing to establish their impractical
theories in the minds Of the Russian
people. and spread them throughout
the world.
Borah arguing against the bonus
and in favor Of the Mellon bill, ar
rued on the facts, which have not yet
been successfully disputed, when he
said:
"One has a right to be for the
bonus or he has a right to be for
tax reduction. But he cannot be for
both"
Really no argument should be re-
qulred to sustain such a statement;
it Is plain common sense. The vot-
crs who overlook that fact will be
gullible indeed. Taking off one bur-
den the while another is added by no
kind of jugg!cry can relieve the bur-
den bearer.

DRIVING the Hockey Players


With the first game only few
days away, Coach WigGin is driving
the hockey men hard. Bowdoin
comes to Lewiston for the first clash
of the year for either college. Bates
is fortunate this year in having six
veteran ice men, the only position
to fill being that of goal. Captain
Stanley will hold down his old posi-
ton on the defense aided by Arthur
Scott of Gardiner of football fame. For
the wings Corey and Leonardo are
available. "Joie" Cogan, luminary
for the past three years will be back
at center once more. Junior Stanley
brother of the captain is also a letter
man at the defense position and Will
play a large number of the games.
Owing to the slight injury of Leon
ardi. Johnny O'Connor, a member of
the squad for the past two years may
appear in his place against Bowdoin.
O'Connor is a fast man and sure to
make a permanent berth this year.
The goal is the big problem with
Coach Wiggin. Candidates are num-
erous including Guy Rowe, all Maine
end at football. Dave Wyllie, last
years second string goali.. Pete Bur
rill of relay fame and Byron kimball
Of Bridgton. 1t is probable that for
the first few games several of these
men will appear at the cage. a
fast second string outfit has been
worked up also which will CLASH
with several local and high school
teams among them Cony High of Au-
gusta. Their lineup at present is:
Don Bryant. center; Dimlich ana
Lane, wings: Junior Stanley ana
Mike Harkins, defense; Dave Wyllie'
goal. All of these men are pressing
the varsity hard for their positions
and are men of no mean ability.
The first issue of the Bates STU
dent" the college weekly publica-
ton, under the management OF the
class OF 1925. is now being prepared.
1t VIII appear as usual on Fridays
throughout the year. Erwin D. Can,
ham of Auburn. varsity debater and
prominent in literary circles will edit
the publication for the coming year
The business manager will be George
C. Sheldon of Augusta who has had
considerable experience IN business
management in various college ac-
tivities. This year the management
plans to issue 1.-The Garnet" the lit
erary magazine once more. The pub
LEGATION has been allowed to lapse
during the past year but will be re-
vived with many new and interest
ing features. There is considerable
demand for such a magazine and the
editors are assured of generous sup
port. The management of The Gar
net will be the same as that of Tho
Student, except that Kenneth Con-
nors of Auburn. literary editor Of the
Student. will cooperate with Editor
Canham in his work.

came to a little house by the road
side. and. as he was tired and hun
cry, he knocked on the door. But
as no one answered, he turned the
knob and hoped in. There was no
one around although he called out
several times.
"This Is strange" he thought to
himself as he peeked into room fit
ted up like a nursery. There were
all sorts OF toys lying around. dolls
and wagons, blocks and picture books
and, Oh. lots and lots of things. At
last. sitting down in an easy chair. he
began to read a fairy story. Pretty

Probably General Buffers closing
OF the saloons of Philadelphia will be
more effective than the plan hit upon
by the coroner in consequence of the
S75 deaths last year in that city from
drinking poison rum, nevertheless the
plan is unique, to say the least. The
picture of the victim would be
placarded on the bill-boards along
with photographs of the place where
he was found and of the saloon where
he bought the poison. Now. If along
side all this there might be published
the verdict of murder for the
criminals who sold the poison liquor.
there might be a considerable element

One never grows too old to forget
the delights of eating. And yet OLD

Every family should be supplied

From childhood to old age they daily
overcome or prevent the distresses

points of view are one of the most
invaluable aids to health to be found.
So, no matter what you eat, IL your

that q e0-cent box of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets will keep your stom-
ach sweet and thus aid to prevent
