the police department in its investi- gation of the murder of Don R. Mellett, today is again to pass in re- view as nearly as it can be muster ed. .,..
 Heads of the investigation an- nounced early today that acting chief of police, Earl Hexamer, will start all over with a quizzing of the known leaders and their retinue, completely disregarding the testi- mony previously taken by S. A. Lengel, suspended police chief.
 Meanwhile the return of Ora Slater, Cincinnati detectives, head ing the investigators on the trial of slayers, is waited. Slater departed quickly and mysteriously for dis tant city, to interrogate some one believed to have knowledge of the vice rings supposed plot to assas- sinate Mellett because of his strong editorial and personal stand against commercialized vice and corrupt politics.
 At Slater's headquarters 1t was hoped that the person who yester- day furnished the investigators with marked letters would make himself known. Valuable information was contained in the mysterious letters. The investigators said that absolute

the state supreme court ruled that her husband, James E. Farmer Jim" Ferguson, was ineligible for the governorship because of his inn peachment in 1917. Ferguson then placed his wife's name on the ballot and a "vindication" campaign fol- lowed in which she was elected by a large majority. The impeachment followed alleged irregularities in office including a charge that he placed state funds in his own bank.
 Is But 8 Years Old
 Moody, who is SS years old, is one of the youngest men to take the Texas democratic leadership. He was born at Taylor. Williamson county in June, 1893. We he was Is his father died and he became an electrician's helper. Money saved from his wages enabled him to at- tend Texas university and in 1914 he began the practice of law in Taylor.
 Elected as Williamson county att torney in 1920 he next was named district attorney for Williamson and Travis counties, where his fame in prosecuting Texas fogging cases swept him to the attorney general ship two years ago. He soon had arguments with the Fergusons and this spring he announced his candi- dacy for governor. He was married

DAN MOODY, AT s,
 ASSURED ELECTION
Governor "Ma" Ferguson Of
 Texas to Resign

Austin, Texas, July 27 LP)-Dan Moody, youthful titian haired attor- ney general, has forced the Fergu- sons of Texas into the first phase of a political eclipse after several years in which they dominated the Lone Star state democratic politics. Moody's vote in Saturdays primary coupled with an announcement yes terday by Gov. Miriam A. Ferguson that she will resign from office, probably by Nov. l, virtually as- sures his ascendancy to the gover- nors chair next January.
 With primary returns nearing completion Moody lacked a few votes of having a majority in the | five cornered democratic guberna- torial nomination race but led Gov. Ferguson by more than 10000 votes. Lynch Davidson. third rank | ing candidate who like Moody based his campaign on "anti-Ferguson- ism" received enough votes to cause Mrs. Ferguson to decide she did not care to continue her cam paign for reelection.
 Gov. Ferguson's resignation will conform to an agreement she had with Moody that she would retire from the race if he should lead her 1 by one vote and that he should withdraw if she led by 25,000 votes. Her decision to resign also virtually ! S,,+a rf i,, n election returns as a run off primary will not be necessary. Texas law provides that unless a candidate re- ceives 51 per cent of the votes cast q second primary must be held.
 Calls Special Session
 Simultaneously with the an- nouncement of her resignation, Gov. Ferguson called special sas- sion of the legislature for Septem- Der 13, to consider vaIidation of nearly S1O0,000,00O Texas road bonds held invalid by the United States supreme court. She also said she wished to give the legislature an opportunity to investigate any department of the state govern ment it might wish. The read bonds were made the center of attacks on the Ferguson administration by Moody and Davidson, who had de- manded a special session of the leg islature to validate them Gov Ferguson refused. saying it was only a political move.
 Gov. Ferguson's political career began in the spring of 1924, when

 That the underworld is beginning to fear some retaliation for any in formation it has given the investi- Ngators was shown last night when one of the women of the jungles" who was questioned, asked investi- gation headquarters for police pro- lection from a man lurking around her quarters with a gun. The in- vestigators dispatched patrolman to her address to keep a vigil. Re- ports yesterday that unofficials in- vestigators had definitely identified the automobile used by the slayers were completely discounted when the authorized investigators showed that they had suspected the same automobile and had identified it and had found an indisputable aIibi.
 Investigators said they were sitting tight" and expect a break any time, though it may net come for days.

ALL WORN OUT?
So Was Mr.. Estey, Who Tells HIS
Experience.

Are you tired all the time; worn
out night and day? Does your back
ache as if it would break? DO you
suffer dizziness, headaches, rheu-
matte twinges or distressing urinary
disorders? You have good cause
then, to be alarmed about your KID
neys. Do as many of your toWnfolk
recommend. Use Doan's Pllls-a
stimulant diuretic to the kidneys.
This Ellsworth case is convincing:
H. w. Estey, 35 Pine St, says:
when my kidneys were in bad
way, 1 had a constant, dull ache
across my back that made me misera-
BILE. When I stopped or tried to lift
anything, sharp catches took me
across my kidneys and it was hard
to straighten Mornings my back
felt stiff and lame. My kidneys
acted too often and caused me TO get
up at night to pass the secretions.
Doan's Pills strengthened my back
and kidneys and helped me in every
way"

THE VILLAGES.

(By Martha Haskell Clark.)
I cannot hope that Sorrows feet for.
ever and a day
VIII pass my little House of Love
where latticed sunbeams stray
But when she lays her hand at last
upon the swinging latch,
And steps where happy years have
smiled beneath our springsweet
thatch,
Grant me, ah, God this heartfelt
prayer, that somewhere it may
Where little, small-town sympathy
may fold and comfort me.
The little, small-town sympathy that
runs across the fields
In blue-checked bingham aprons, an6
with flour upon it's hands,
That bakes and brews, and sweeps and
dusts, that wakeful serves and
shields,
The little small-town sympathy thai
knows and understands.
Thy cities, God, are builded high with
carven stone on stone,
But hearts may ache, and lives may
droop unheeded and alone,
And souls may dwell unknown, un-
loved, single wall between
Not so the quiet, home-sweet lives
that fringe the village green.
Let others reap the splendors, Loro'
but give instead to me
The homely round of living blent with
small-town sympathy.
The little small-town sympathy that
steals on neighbor feet
From tiny lamp-lit houses down
maple shaded street;
Thatlends it's strength on tear dimmed
WAYS it's own bruised feet have
trod,
The little small-town sympathy-the
very soul of God.
Dear M. B. Friends:
Some of you who read the poem
above may have lived, or are living
on a city street.. You will doubtless
remember that some day, next door
to YOU, or one of two doors away,
there was evidence that there was
trouble and loss within-a touch OF
black or white on the knob; or per-
chance not that, but removal of a
casket to it's waiting conveyance,
and the forming of procession to
follow some friend to his last rest
ing place.
But this poem of "small-town SYM
pathy" means neighborly kindness
and ready help and sympathy ex-
pressed by deed if not always by
word. Thanks to you, Edwlna, for
sending the poem l have read it a
number of times.
Bar Harbor, April 26.
