NEW YORK, Oct. 24-The

justices Of the Court of APP

They will pass on motions for

If the attorneys run true to the
form they showed at the famous

TOWN
MAYOR IN
PARTY

Encouraged by the arrival OF
. large delegation Of friends
from his home town of Canaan
daigua, n. Y, the Rev. DaS.
comb Forbush prepared today
to pick up the trail of the
search for his missing wife,
which was broken off yester-
day by the death of his father.
Mrs. Anne Ramsey Forbush left
her husband in the middle of the
performance at Keith's Theater
last Wednesday evening and. under
the influence of a mental disorder,
slipped away under cover Of
drizzling rain.
Intensive Search
Acting on the belief that she has
concealed herself in one Of the
Giesolate regions near Washington,
searching parties, numbering some
times as many as 1000 persons,
have penetrated the most heavily
wooded sections of Rock Creek Park
and the bluffs fronting the Potomac
River.
Since her disappearance, Wash
tngton police have run down a
score of tips that Mrs Forbush had
been seen in the vicinity.
One peculiar feature of the
woman's malady is that the urge
to be alone always comes on her
after a long rainy spell. On the
second of two former occasions
when she disappeared it had been
raining for several days. She took
her husbands automobile and drove
through a binding rainstorm to a
spot 200 miles away. where she
abandoned the car and hid in q
clump ;of bushes. STA was found
three days later by two men who
are now on their way to Washing
ton.
Father Died in Philadelphia
The Rev. Forbush returned to
Washington this morning after a
hurried trip to Philadelphia where
his father, the Rev. William Byron
Forbush. died yesterday. He is
awaiting the arrival of few more
friends from Canadaigua TO renew
his search.

 Mrs. Marion Casey Sande, wife of the noted jockey, died at Saratoga Springs yesterday, and today friends told the story of her iHness-health undermined by valiant effort to be diet "pace-maker" to keep the jockey down to weight after his spill on the track at Saratoga four years ago
 Sande was caught under the horse in the fall. He would never ride again, the wise ones said. as the jockey lay in a plaster cast in hospital for months.
 But his wife was beside him daily and told him that he certainly would ride again. With recuperation came the task of keeping down the weight -112 pounds. Sande was no long CT the 7O-pound boy who ran away from his fathers farm at American Falls, Idaho, when he was Is years old in 1913.
 His diet was fruit for breakfast. beef broth for lunch, and sometimes steak at night. In between came long hours of roadwork.
 wen take care Of the weight proposition" his wife was quoted as having said. In making this weight you need a companion, d sort of pace maker. I will diet with you"
 II was too much for her they said at Saratoga, and Mrs Sande became i'll at the opening of the Saratoga season after 8 strenuous training grind. Ton days ago she was able to accompany her husband to the course to see him ride Chance Shot to a glorious victory but as the jockey crossed the line Mrs. Sande collapsed.

 Il lost 20 minutes when my wing caught fire" carranza said last night. and 40 minutes more when wise could have cut my time down almost an hour" His time was 10 hours and 49 minutes.
 The wing of his plane caught fire when his muffler broke not far from Torreon, at about the half-way mark of his flight The fire gained some headway before he discovered it, he said.
 The greatest danger came be- cause I was carrying 400 liters extra supply of gasoline in that wing. l was afraid it would flare up at any second" said the tlier. 'I got out. my parachute and was preparing 10 jump when l saw a short distance ahead and to one side a black cloudcd rainstorm.
 II headed right for the cloud and ran into a heavy burst of rain, which eytinguisAed the fire on the wing. After that had no trouble. although some distance farther on hit a big windstorm."
