when the storm hit. Free transpor- tation was furnished on the rail- road to people who wanted to come North and many availed them selves of the oportunity of getting away from Miami through the help of the Red Cross"
 T couldn't believe that people could be so good as they were to me on the train during my journey North" Mrs. Wool continued. At Jacksonville, Red Cross nurses came into my drawing room on the train and asked me if there was anything they could do for me. They dressed the arms of my children, gave them milk to drink and did everything for us. They were wonderful"
 Mrs, Wool vehemently declares that there is nothing 10 fear in Miami. She talked with residents who had lived there for years and the storm of two weeks ago was the first catastrophe that had happened there in their knowledge. She said that it is known that a hurricane can hit anywhere and it is not liable to be repeated.
 She said that the work of recon struction was progressing very rapid lv and even before she left, there were several of the buildings which were almost entirely rebuilt. The big palm trees which had been blown down in the storm had been reset and the streets cleaned up so that one would hardly know any thing had happened. Everyone help cd in any way he could. but there is a great need there for skilled workmen.
 Mrs. Wool states that she would never live anywhere else but in Miami, Fla, saying the climate there is wonderful. She denied that the heat was excessive, saying all sum- mer 1t was cooler in Miami than 1t was in New Britain. She said that at Christmas time and all during the cool months, one can go down to the beach and go in bathing while the people here are cold. She believes that she will make her i home in Hartford for three months and then return to Miami, coming ! North only for periodical vlslts'

TAMMANY ISSUE,
 MILLS INSISTS
Smiths Opponent Campaigning
 in Upstate Districts
Eeuhurch N Y Oct s ~

Nevburgh, N. r, Oct. LF - Tammany Hall is the great issue" in this years gubernatorial cam paign in New York state, in the opinion of Representative Ogden L. Mills, the republican nominee, and MT. Mills proposes to discuss state issues on the theory that all are projected against the background of Tammany's ever-growing power."
 Starting his upstate tour with a speech here last evening. the can didate attributed unparalleled ex- travagance to Governor Smiths administration and declared that if elected he would apply the economy practices 'learned in Washington" and do for the state of New York what Calvin Coolidge has sdone for the nation"
 MT. Mills prepared address dealt with the alleged costlness of the democratic regime In Albany. but he prefaced 1t with a reiteration of his attack on Tammany hall. Said he:
 T have no quarrel with Tam many Hall as a political organization serving the government. The reason I challenge its power today Is that it has become so great that it over shadows and dominates govern ment. Tammany Hall is stronger than the mayor of New York city. stronper than the whole poyeromen ent of New York and its elected officials. It is stronger than the governor of the state"

sUN,s RAYS STRONGER

Pasadena, Calif., Oct. 6 CP) - The curative powers of the suns rays arc to be greatly increased during the next year, according 10 Dr. Edison Petit, of Mount Wilson observatory here. He has an nounced that he has found that the ultraviolet rays of the sun, the part of the sunlight that cures some diseases - and also causes sunburn, are to be more numerous in 1927. This Is caused, he said, by the increasing of the spots on the sun.
 Dr. Petit figures that the sun will give off about two and a half times as much ultra violet light in 1927 as 1t did In 1923, when the spots were less numerous. The II year maximum of spots on the sun will be reached next year, he said.

IDENTIFY SLAYERS ;OF MAPLEWOOD MAN
"Bum"' Rogers and ''CuniHe the
 Killer" Sought

New Brunswick, N. J., Oct. 6,-P Two men who killed 8 wealthy Maplewood. N. J., lumberman, mor- tally wounded his son, and wreck ed four automobiles in an attemnt to reach truck load of registered air mail near here Monday night have been identified as "Bum" Rogers and "Cunniffe. the Killer" both with long criminal records,
 Seven men were implicated in an attempted robbery of valuable mail destined for an airplane at Hadlev held, state troopers say, although Rogers and Cunniffe were alone when their car ran into a ditch and dumped them headlong into bloody adventure. The other five followed in another car the troopers believe, and helped Rogers and Gun niffe to escape.
 James Cunniffe known to me,ro- politan police as "Cunniffe the Kill er was at one time leader of the Hudson Duster" gang. J. Rogers escaped last December from q. guard on a New York Central train while being taken to Auburn prison to serve a 3s year sentence.
 Rogers is wanted for participation in a. robbery of Roosevelt hospital cashiers which netted 3. hold up gang s1o,ooo. He is also accused Of having shared in a. s50,00o hold up of the Castle Ice Cream compalty at Perth Amboy, and of a s2,5oo rob- bery of the Merck Chemical com pany at Railway.
 Cunniffe escaped last year from Blackwell's Island, N. Y. where he was serving an indeterminate gen. tence for carrying concealed weapons.
 The man slain Monday, believed to have been the victim of this pair, was Frank Kearney, of Maplewood, N. J. Two men demanded a ride on a lonely road at night. He refused, and they killed him. They shot his son Robert through the head and he was taken to a hospital in a dying condition. They dragged Mrs. Rear ney from her husbands automobile and ran it into a telephone pole try ing to escape. They then com mandeered another machine and made their way to Newark, where they abandoned it.
 Employes at the Hadley air field told state police yesterday they had noticed suspicious characters. thought 10 have been members of the Cunniffe gang, lettering about the field for more than a week.
