Witness in McPherSOn Case
 Accused Evangelist

Salinas, Cal, Oct. IS Rl-A. S
 Page, held in ,he county jail here
 on a charge of forgery, yesterday
 declared he had been offered s1O,-
 oOO to pose as one of the alleged
 kldnappers accused by Aimee ISemple McPherson of her abduction Iand imprisonment in a shack in Son. Iora, Mexico
 Mrs. McPherson is facing a charge Of criminal conspiracy in Los An Igelcs in connection with her disap- lpearance, authorities charging that the Kidnapping story is a myth.
 Following her usual policy, Mrs. McPherson has issued no denial of Pages statement but Los Angeles county authorities regard him as a monumental fakir.
 Page told authorities he was in- troduced to her at the Tavern, a Iroadhouse, in Alameda county, Cal, more than year ago. and that she was his dancing partner during the Ievening.
 Just where his connection with the Kidnapping of Mrs. McPherson begins, and ends Page will not make clear to the authorities. except that he insists he was involved. The sheriff inclines to the belief that Pages story is calculated to give him trip to Los Angeles and an op- portunity to escape.
 Los Angeles, Oct. IS P>-Hair, by means of which attorneys for Aimee .Semple McPherson hoped to identify the mysterious Miss X'' in her case, may have come from horses tail instead of a woman's head.
 This was intimated today as surprise promised by the prosecu- ton with resumption in municipal court of the evangelist's criminal con- piracy hearing after an over Sunday recess.
 The Surprise" was promised spe- ciflcally by Mrs. Lorraine Wiseman- Sielaff, co-defendant of Mrs. Mc- Pherson, str witness for the state and confessed perpetrator of the Miss N hoax.
 Mrs. Virla Kimball, Oakland Seamstress and twin sister of Mrs. Niscman, was summoned as today's first witness by the defense to tell under oath whether she signed an affidavit at Salinas last August in which she admitted being the wo- man who spent some time at Carmel in cottage with Kenneth G.

Charity Trick
Costly Affair

LONDON. Aug. THE charity
trick, 'onc Of the oldest stock in
trade hoaXcs of confidence men.
recently cost an American tourist
$500 here.
The trick, which melted great
profits to confidence men ON the
continent following the World war,
is usually played in the most prom
incnt hotels and restaurants, mainly
To mislead the victim.
One or two very engaging persons
approach the victim and enquire if
he is a visitor. They usually pose
rs visitors who are lonely and seek
ing companionship. Then they tell
their story.
The father or uncle of one Of the
men WAS very wealthy and recently
died in Chicago, leaving vast sums
TO charity in England with the dcs-
ignati0n that the son or nephew -
distribute the money for him. They
display a full pursc-ordinarily
stuffed with paper and engage in
Il conversation about ''honcsty.'
The bearer of the pocketbook
turns to the victims and declares
that he has an honest face and that
although his purse contains 10000
ne would be willing to allow the
man completely out of his sight
with if. The victim takes the purse
and walks around the block-re-
ncmbering that he is IN honest man
and must not look inside the purse.
He returns smiling and to show
that he honors the integrity of his
new friend, gives him his own purse
TO carry ont of sight. The compan-
ion. if there is one, usually leaves

CLAIMS
YANKEE PLUCK
AIDED GERTRUDE
BY HENRY l.. FARRELL
Omitted Press Staff CORRESPONDENT

NEW YORK, Aug. In England
they refer to American persistence
as Yankee pluck. - In this coun-
try it is known by another and less
elegant name but by any name it is
the same and it was plenty of it that
enabled "Trudie Edcrlc to write
her name in history as the first wo-
man to swim across the English
channel.
just recently a prominent British
golf writer was theorizing about the
great success Of the American play
crs. He discussed all the theories
advanced by others and concluded:
''lt is my opinion that the Amer
lean golfer is not freak. He's
Just an American and YOU tell any
American that he can't do some
thing and he II tell you like hell ]
can t and he'll 90 out and do it.
When "Trudic' Edcrlc and her
lovable big German ''pop' went TO
France to start training for the
swim, they We're told Slre can t
do it. No woman can do it. She
failed last year and she can't hope
to succeed this year. It's bad
season. The water won't be right
and the tide will be crazy for an
other three months -
"Trudie,' with a laugh that only
10 year old girl of size and
strength can equal in volume, paid
no attention to the bad predictions,
but "pop' roared his protests.
''Thc he'll she cant swim dot
channcl,' he sputtered and spouted
in pardonable rage. ''The ones who
say dot she can't don't know my
Trudie.'
When Lloyds in London suggest
ed that the betting ought to be 80
to against her, "pop' grabbed a
boat, sped to London and smacked
$4,000 ON the desk in front of
broker.
"Gct dot covered at your so to
!, he roared, land get some more

"Gou wrote story that |

remarked to the writer in Paris.
"But, oh boy, how ! IN going to

most floored us with husky swing

Her success this year probably
was the result of better condition.
There was no truth in the stories
that she did not train last year but
she was forced to remain in Girls
Nez so long that she became cx-
trcmelv homeSick and her morale
was distinctly affected. Any one
who has spent a day in Girls Nez can
appreciate what it means to exist
there for months.
