None other than the famous
crook and infamous labor faker,
Mike Boyle, is furnishing his

most Variegated bunch Of polit-
ioaI specimens to stand under.
From a specimen ballot put
out by Boyle's gang, going un-

Sam Gompers calls "non-par-

It must beborne in mind that this
Wage Farmers League"--of course it
isn't a dual union"-has been en-
dorsed BY both the Chicago Fedora
ton Of Labor and the Illinois State
Federation Of Labor. And the united
front Of labor takers, liberal college
professors, social welfare uplifters and
underworld characters is wonderful to
behold.

volunteered the use of his handkerchief
for gag. They laughed merrily over
their ingenuity in providing "props."
"All ready" the sheik said; and then,
suiting the action to the words: "the door
opens-man enterS-crosses room-Seizes
princess-binds her-she struggles"
Princess Ola felt her head reeling.
There was a sickening odor from the
handkerchief tied about her mouth and
nostrils which she had not noticed before.
Here was something else then than the
reading of play! All right, she would
add postscript.

she could that she might escape its fumes

give had enough of this-where's your
jewels?" the "sheik" demanded.
But Princess Ola had only got well
started on the struggle. She fought like
tigress to loosen her bonds aud
pearls from around her neck and twisted
diamond bracelet from her arm. He
dashed into the adjoining boudoir, seized
the jewel case and was stuffing the con-
tents into his pockets. q
@Then came the answer to Ola's post
SCRIPT The employees OF the hotel office,
realizing that something was wrong when
no answer came from the flashing tele-
phone, hurried house detective upstairs.
AS he neared the apartment Of the
Princess he heard the cries and the strug-
gle. The "sheik" had locked the door
behind him and there was quite a delay
before it could be opened.
Overcome by the excitement and the
injuries she had received, the Princess
tainted. When the detective, who had
been reinforced by other hotel employees,
broke down the door, they were just in
time to seize the intruder as he was about
to make his escape through window to
balcony.
In the Marlborough Street police court
the "sheik" was identified as Frederick
Smith, one of the cleverest crooks in
England. All the stolen jewels were
found in his pockets, as were a vial of
ether and set of burglars tools of the
finest kind. Nothing would induce him to
tell the name of his accomplice, the "mo-
ton picture producer"
Princess Ola was unable to appear in
court. Captain Broadwood did instead.
The Princess has gone back to
Merstham to recuperate, thankful that her
postscript brought such ready response,
and vowing that forever she will abide by
the injunction of the dead Prince:
"Put not your trust in a sheik."

When the latter pl.-. vas sent over
from America, Ola came along, leaving
behind Mr.. Mordant from whom she
had been divorced.
Three weeks after the play opened .
here, Ola Humphrey was one Of a gay
party of theatrical women who went to
the Cecil one night for dinner. There
she met dark, handsome young man and
was tickled almost to death when she
learned he was an honest-to-EoOdnes
prince, Ibrahim Hassan, first cousin of ex-
Khedive Abbas Hilmi and nephew Of the
present King Fuad.
1t was a fast and furious courtship
and then they were married. Prince
Ibrahim was frightfully rich, but life in
Cairo and Alexandria for the American
princess was not all that the story books
say of it. Princess Ola declared that the
Prince was Unfortunately jealous of her,
and that he also beat her, In addition to
humping her head against the palace wall.
While she was prosecuting an action for
herited 100000.
1t was not very long after this that the
Princess changed her name again.
Captain Broadwood was formerly Of the
Duke of CORVALLIS Light Infantry and
distinguished family of Mersthan. To
Merstham, then, the Captain took his
Princess, and there they have been living
very quietly.
It is an old saying that to one who
has ever been there, the East will always
call. So, finally, it called to Princess Ola.
She knew she could not go back, but she

and in order to properly H|
emphasize his meaning
he bumped her head

That was dozen years ago.
And always the Princess re-
membered - remembered not
only the warning, but the
throbbing in her head that
followed its contact with the
wall against which Marc An
tony had loIled.
Then, in q most unexpected
way-possibly it was during q

the tempting voice Of a sheik-a motion
picture sheik at that Just at the most
critical moment Of q most thrilling ex-

rushed back to her:
"Put not your trust in sheik."
In an instant she found herself and
added a-little postscript to an exciting
tale told and acted by the sheik, thereby
saving a chest Of jewels and money, and
possibly her life. Just now she is re-
cuperating in her Summer. home, while
the "sheik," his former shiny, plastered
hair shorn close, languishes in prison.
Princess Ola, whose remarkable career
kept her in the hmelight almost score
of years, has been living in quiet and
seclusion since her most recent marriage
to Captain John Henry Brentwood, of
the English army.\ That happy event was
solemnized three years ago, although she
never gave up the title of Princess Hassan
for the more plebeian one of Mrs. John
Henry Broadwood.
It was the third time that Ola Humphrey
had changed her name. She was called
Olga when she came into the world in
columbus City, Iowa. Her father was
Tom Humphrey, a commonplace young
fellow from Morning Star, Ia, who went
to Columbus City and married the daugh-
ter OF BIZ FaSnalI the town ductloheer'
When she tried to lisp her own name,
little Olga could only say cola" and Ola
she became.
That name sounded better, too, when
she went on the stage. But it was her
great beauty and not little talent that
won her quite a prominent place behind
the foOtIights in America before she came
to London. While abe was making q
name for herself she married Edwin
EMordant, an actor. She appeared with

that she never would "unleFs the

The warning against sheiks was for
gotten.
He had a wonderful actor to play. the
part of the sheik. The actor had, in fact,
written the story. Why not send him
around to her hotel on the morrow? She
could see what he looked like and he
could run over the scenario with her. 1t
sounded good. She consented.
The following afternoon the Princess
donned a new gown that had just ar
rived from Paris. With little feminine
vanity, she took her jewel box from the
office safe and put on one or two pieces,
leaving the others in the box in her
boudoir.
She was quite in a futter when the
"sheik" arrived. He was all that a woman
would expect-tall, muscular, dark and
handsome.
He gave her q general outline of the
story, "acting out" many of the scenes in
a most capable and entertaining manner.
''Then we come to the big scene," he
explained. "The Princess is alone in the
palace. Suddenly the door opens and
man enters. He binds and gags the
Princess and is about to carry her off,
when, just at the critical moment, the
sheik arrives and rescues her. Suppose
we act it. I'll read both the male parts"

USE TRACTOR TO DIG
BAIT NOW IN RANDOLPH

CUTHBERT, May 27.-Leave it
to the wise heads to make work
easy" was the statement of prom
inent Cuthbert man today when he
unexpectedly came upon the Cuth-
bert mayor and staff of council
men using a fleet of tractors to dig
fish bait. Probably the "gigher
powers" have advance dope on TIE
number of the finny tribe that lie
hungrily in wait for the hooked
wiggler, and are determined that
bait will not run short at the cru
cial moment.
That the law makers have a
ring whereby they propose to
capture worms in such wholesale
manner that they will have a mo l.
opoly on the angling industry, is
another theory advanced. "No
worms, no fishing" is said to be
the motto of the new association.
