 STAMP COLLECTING
Tourists Are Asked to Give

Paris Dec. IT R)-Stamp collec- ing is a hobby of some Montmartre policemen. who politely strip the tourists letters Trombone.
 T beg your pardon, but are you an American?" ventures the side walk pounding philatelist of the cas- ual pleasure seeker from abroad, who perhaps displays apprehension and tries to hedge.
 Have you any new American stamps about you, sir?" the officer, whose title is agent" hastens to in- quire. You see, I am a collector. as well as a guardian of the peace. I you'd like to have some of your lat est issues, if you have any of the en- velopes in your pockets. Already have the Theodore Roosevelt stamps and naturally those in red of George Washington and Madame. But l have not yet had those bearing the cffigy of President Harding and they lack to me to complete my collec- tion."
 The tourits searches his pockets, if he is not in too great a hurry to find a cabaret and the early morn ing is not too cold, and obliges. With a courteous salute, the police man approaches the next wanderer by night:

BUTLER WITNESS
 FOR ACCUSED MAN
Dry" Advocate Aids Man Held
 for Taking Liquor

San Francisco, Dec. IT P-The testimony of three women was used by the defense in the trial of Col. Ned NJ. Green yesterday in the at tempt to refute charges of the government that he embedded con- fiscated liquor with which to stage
 riotous parties.
 A further feature of the defense's $
 case was the testimony of Briga- dier General Smedley D. Butler,
 distinguished enemy of alcohol, who appeared as a character wit
 ness for the deposed prohibition director. General Butler was on the stand but a moment. He testified that the accused man had an ex- cellent reputation as to integrity, honesty and probity. He was not cross examined.
 The trial neared it's end today. Defense attorneys announced they had but two more witnesses to
 present, and the prosecution prom ised to use not more than an hour for rebuttal. Arguments and Fed
 eral Judge A. r. St. Sure's instruc- tions to the jury were expected to occupy at least the remainder of the court day.

INSURANCE CD. AVOIDS PAYING
Takes Refuge Behind Legal
 TeChnicahty in Theft Case

New Haven, Dec. 1T R>-The final chapter in the holdup which brought close to the criminal career of Big Mike'' Riccitelli bandit who was killed or com mitted suicide to avoid capture by the police in Stratford after a hold up of jewelry store in New Haven on February 1. 1925. was written by the supreme court of errors to- day, when in a decision by Justice George E. Hinman, Samuel Korinoff, proprietor of the jewelry store at No. 4O5 State street, New Haven is barred from collecting s10,673 from the Maryland Casualty Co. The amount represented the difference between the value of the bandits loot and the value of the jewelry recovered when he was killed. The casualty company had insured Kor- inoff, and facts as to the holdup and the value of the Jewels had been agreed upon.
 The insurance company raised the point that since the clerk in the jewelry store voluntarily had given to the bandit the combination to the safe-persuaded by a gun in the bandits hand-that the articles were not taken by force, and there- fore were not covered by the insur- ance policy. This contention is up- held by the supreme court.

ShOrtens Process of
 Making Old BOWstfingS

Sacramento, Cal, Dec. IT R - F. J. Lewis, state storekeeper, has discovered simple way of making bowstrings, and has succeeded in shortening the process by half.
 A properly plaited bowstring, Lewis says, is thin the middle, be- coming gradually larger toward the ends to take up vibration. He has worked out an arrangement consist ing of a series of pegs. each three quarters of an inch from the other, over which the bowstring strands are looped. After the required num- Der of loops are made, the strands are cut to the desired length by run ming a knife down the center. Then they are rolled, waxed and plaited into bowstring.

Vicar Talks Gospel
 Over Glass of Beer

London, Dec. 17 R-The Rev. A. w. Barker, vicar of St. Mary Mag dalene, church, in London working class district, believes in taking the church to the public house and talk ing conversion over casual glass of beer. On this account he has become known as the "Publican's s Bishop" of which title he is very proud.
 If my parishoners won't come to church, the only thing I can do is to take the church to them, which I do nearly every day in the year" ," says the vicar. T have always found that people are muchSmore willing to fall into a religious disussion over a glass of beer in public house than in any other environment" Q The vicar contends that a minister may talk religion as well in a public house as in a church.

 CHARLIE CHAPLIN
Wants Divorce, Alimony and
 Custody of Children

Los Angeles. Dec. IT R - The matrimonial bark of Charles Chap- lin was headed for the divorce court today following the announce ment by his estranged wife. the former Lita Grey. that she had m structed her attorney to file sult against the screen comedian.
 Attorney George Beebe, who made the announcement for Mrs. Chaplin yesterday, Explained that all attempts to settle the Chapiins' marital difficulties out of court had failed. He said he was busy prepar- ing the petition but would not 1n- dicate on what grounds the divorce would be sought
 Beebe at first indicated that the petition might be ready for fillng today. The complaint was not ready last night, however, when the attorney had planned to take the papers to Mrs. Chaplin for her signature.
 Speculation is rife as to what the  Chaplin accused her husband Of cruelty and an exchange of charges passed between the comedian and his wife for several days following their separation.
 Mrs. Chaplin will insist that she be awarded the custody of thelr two children. Charles Spencer, IT.. and Sydney Earle, and will demand a. financial settlement in Keeping with her former station, her law yer has indicated.
 Whether Chaplin will file cross complaint depends wholly on the allegations set out in his wife's pe- tition, his attorney, Lloyd Wright said.
