SHERIFF CURRY
BADLY INJURED
ON VOYAGE
MEETS WITH ACCIDENT ON
BAHAMA SHORE WHEN
SMALL BOAT CAPSIZES
NEAR ROCKS


Sheriff Roland Curry was pain
fully and perhaps seriously in
jured at 1890 o'clock yesterday
when caught between a capsized
boat and the dog rocks ON the
Bahama shore
He was Immediately placed
aboard his new cruising launch,
the Barbara May, and the, vessel
made for Key West with all avail
able speed, landing at this port
just before IL o'clock last night.
He is suffering severely today, be-
ing unable to take his bed because
Of the increase of pain when he
attempts to do so, and is sitting
in an arm chair at his home un-
der the influence of medicine ad-
ministered by his physician to case
his suffering.
The real nature and actual ex-
tent of the injuries sustained by
Sheriff Curry win be determined
some time today upon thorough
examination by local physicians.
The accident is reported to
have occurred on the coast of the
Bahama Islands yesterday about
noon. A number of the cruising
party had gone ashore. Sheriff
Curry remained on the launch,
and when they were ready to re-
turn to the Barbara May he took
the small boat and started to the
shore for them. When near the
shore his little boat was swamped
by heavy seas and he was thrown
out on the lee side, between the
boat and the dog rocks. The
heavy seas caught up the small
boat that was then filled with
water and dashed it against
Sheriff Curry, who was standing
with his back to the rocks. He
was thrown violent against the
sharp pointed rocks. crushing his
chest and decorating his back.
Sheriff Curry and party left
here a week ago yesterday aboard
the Barbara May on the vessels
maiden voyage. They were ex-
pecting to be absent until next
Saturday, but the entire party re-
turned on the boat last night.

MANY PROBLEMS
TO BE SOL WE'D

WARSAW, May 1S.--Problems
ere mounting for the new govern
ment installed after Marshal Pill
sudski's seizure Of the capital.
Count Skrzynski, admittedly
one Of Poland's strongest men in
public affairs, refuses to resume
the post Of foreign minister which
he held under the previous cabi-
net.
There is dissatisfaction over the
failure of Marshal Pilsudski to dis
solve parliament and the fact that
troops favoring the old govern
ment ousted By pilsudski in his
coup last week are still under
arms.
The question OF the calling Of
the national assembly for the pur-
pose Of eleeting president to
succeed NJ. Wojceichowski has
brought about difference of
opinion among the politicians.
The leaders of some of the parties
have informed Acting President
Rataj that the assembly should
not be held in Warsaw where un-
prejudieed discussion could not be
carried out.

In FAVOR OF SON
tBy Associated Press,

LONDON, May 1s.-India's
only woman ruler, Her Highness
the Begun of Bhopal, has abdi-
Gated her throne in favor of her
son, NawabE Zada Hamidullau.
For a long time she had contend
ed for the Islamic right to name
her successor, who, under ordinary
procedure, should have been the
privilege of her deceased eldest
son, Nawab Easrulla Kahn. The
British government finally acceded
to her desires.
The abdication of the Begun
brings to an end 25 years of fe-
male rule in the little state of
Central India of 6,902 square
acres with population of about
100000. She had ruled Bhopal
with vigor and craftsmanship.
Although now SO years old, she
still is mentally and physically
vigorous.

HIGH REGARD

SIONS RELATIVE TO
YOUTHS ARE PUBLISHED
HEREWITH

The citizenry of Key West is
showing much interest in connec-
ton with Boys Week, to be spon-
sored by the Rotary Club under
the Craftsmanship of Geo. V. Per-
pail, who is making arrangements
for the event to be inaugurated in
the near future. The following is
what Ebert Hubbard has to say
about boys:
II have profound respect for
boys. Grimy, ragged, tousled
boys in the street often attract
me strangely.
"A boy is man in the cocoon.
You do not know what it is
going to become--his life is big
with many possibilities.
''He may make or unmake
kings. change boundary lines be-
tween states, write books that will
mold characters, or invent ma
chimes that will revolutionize the
commerce Of the world.
Every man was once a boy. /
trust | shall not be contradicted |;
it IS really so.
Every distinctly and vividly /
remember slim, freckled boy,
who was born in the Patch, and
used to pick up coal along the rail-
road tracks in Buffalo, A few
months ago ] had a motion to
make before The Supreme Court,
and the boy from the Patch was
the Judge who wrote the opinion
granting my petition.
Yesterday | rode horseback
past field where boy was plow-
ing. The. lads hair stuck out
through the top of his hat; his
form was bony and awkward; one
suspender held his trousers in
place; his bare legs and arms were
brown and briar-scarred.
"IIe swung his horses around
just as | passed by, and from un-
der the Tapping br.m Of his hat he
cast a quick glance out of the
dark, half bashful eyes and mod
estly returned my salute. HIS
back turned, took off my hat and
sent God-bless-you down the
furrow after him. Who knows?
| may go to that boy to borrow
money, or to hear him preach, or
to beg him to defend me in a law
suit; or he may stand with pulse
unhastened, bare of arm, in white
apron, ready to do his duty. while
the cone is placed over my face,
and Night and Death come creep
ing into my veins.
BE patient with the boys-you
are dealing with soul stuff. Des-
tiny awaits just around the corner.
BE patient with the boysr'
