 RECEIVED IN BERLIN

BERLIN, July 2S. (P)-One of the latest publications on the German book market is biography of Ab- raham Lincoln in German. Hitherto only the German translation of the Carl Shurz sketch of Abraham Lin coln's life existed. The author of the German work is Count Albrecht Montgelas.

PICTURES SHOW TRICKS
 BY WHICH THE MADRID
 BEGGARs DECEIVE PEOPLE

MADRID, July 2S. (P)-Sueet beg ging here is on the increase and the efforts of the authorities to suppress it have been frustrated by too gen erous public who give liberal aims to the beggars.
 The authorities have now, how ever, issued photograph in the press which they hope may have the effect of putting an end to what has been described as a nuisance. Tn this picture a number of beggars are shown before and after their admit tance to the asylum reserved for beggars. In one the men are shown in very pitiable condition, blind, paralytic and one apparently with one leg.
 In the other the photograph shows the same men erect and apparently quite normal, the missing leg having been untucked from it's hiding place The pictures, it was pointed out, are merely proof of the ease with which the alms-giving persons in Madrid is tricked.

OXFORD LENDS GROTIUS
 PORTRAITS TO HOLLAND

OXFORD, Eng, July 2S. [P)-The Oxford House of Congregation has been persuaded to lend to the Dutch government the two supposed DOT traits of Hugo Grotius, the founder of international law, which have hung in the Bodleian Libray for 200 years. It has long been the rule that no book may go out of the E- brary, even at the request of the King himself, or on any manner of condition or bond, but while books contained pictures often enough, yet pictures are not books and so have been held to fall without the rule.
 These portraits are alike in gen. eral features, showing a middle-aged man, ruddy and full-faced with brown hair and mustache and small point ed beard. Both resemble the au- thentic portraits of the great law yer, poet and theologian.
 The history of the portraits, prior to their coming to the University in 1727, is not clear.

Twenty years young and seri-
Gus contender for the heavy
weight championship of the world!
That proud record belongs TO
young Stribling, of Georgia, who
comes here for bout June 4 with
Jack Stone, of New York, for ten
rounds.
The Dixie walIoper was born IA
Bainbridge. Ca, December g. 1904,

clares he win not lay them aside
until he has kfocked the crown

hoek
Strfb1ing for several years was q
-hsghly-rated amateur boxer before
he finally took up the professional
came i1l 1921. The boy came by
his boxing ability naturally, for his
father before him had elected to
become a t ser, cut PA" Stribling' 8
own dad hssd eorbidcen him to enter
the professional ring.
So, then and there, w. L. senior
decided that his first son would be-
oome a boxer and go after a cham
pionsh.p in the division for which
he was fitted.
Pa naturally hoped the boy would
be heavyweight. and he has
nursed him along, building him up
gradually, until now, after five
years Of the game, w. L. Jr. is
ready to step in against the best
the heavyWeights can produce,
which goes for Tunney, Gibbons,
Renault and even the Well-known
Mr. Dempsey.
Pa" sees a good chance, within
another year, OF his son adding
enough weight to put him on even
terms-in that respect, anyhow
with the title owner.
Three months Of cross-country
barnstorming. during which Stub
will be allowed to eat anything that
is wholesome. and box three or four
times each week, in order to prevent
getting fat, Pa figures will set the
boy right.
Then he viii realize the fondest
dream Of his life-seeing his own
boy in a championship bout with
the greatest heavyweight in the
world.

Special DlSpatcn TO Inc star.
NEW YORK, May 13.-Strength
was well distributed throughout the
list in bond trading again today.
Three of the United States Govern
ment obligations sold at prices higher
than recorded at any time in 1925 and
one equaled its previous high point.
The two issues for which demand ap-
peared to be the strongest were the
Treasury AIS and the Treasury As.
Second U. s. Loan Strongest.
The Liberty bond for which buyers
were willing to pay new high prices
were the second ANS. Practically all
of the high-grade rails and industrials
were quoted around the best prices of
the movement. American Telephone
and Telegraph debenture SIS were one
of the favorites. Lorillard 5s got up
to new high point.
Foreign bonds We're strong The
average is at the high of the year.

tanned directly after the French
financial crisis and the German cleo
ton. German rs at 50 We're up almost
3l2 points from the low of April.
French Government bonds were all
higher. The Is crossed 81 against a
low late in March of sc. City of

their best previous price, the influence
being that the approach of time when
drawings will begin for retirement by

st. Paul Days Feature.
The feature in the speculative rails
was the activity and strength in all
the st. Paul issues, but especially in
the Puget Sound As, which at one time
were up three points. Reports of an
early reorganization stimulated the
buying. Chicago. Terre Haute and
Southeastern refunding 5s and the
same roads income bonds went along
with the St. Paul issues.
United States Rubber 5s were the
leaders of the industrials, being taken
in large volume at SO and above, a
new high for the past two years.
Skelly Oil 61as advanced a point and
the Sinclair Oil bonds generally did
better.

CHICAGO, May 13.-Wheat prices
declined today after showing an up
ward trend at the start. Scattered

higher, with May S163 to $1.64 and
July S1.50A to Isl II, was followed by
a setback to $1.62 for May and $1.49A
