casual home-builder elsewhere will
find it rather difficult to meet the
demands of modern hardware.
A rough estimate made in one

Withstand hard usage inside and ex-

Benjamin R. Fox. in building

ken great care in the selection Of
hardware, the design used depend
ing upon the style of the house.
However. Mr.. Fox says that sim
plicity and solfdity are the prime
considerations. For the little
house, door latches of either
wrought iron or brass are used.

by using either octagonal or oval
models. Spun or cast brass, or
bronze are very popular, while
glass nobs are always popular and
attractive.
Catches and fasteners for win

by the thickness q the woodwork.
Adjustments and fasteners for
easement windows are Of either
brass or galvanized iron.
Mr.. Fox finds that simple form
Of locks. catches and handles for
drawers and cupboards is best and
most pleasing when in the smaller
sizes. If period is emphasized in
the house itself, the hardware may
conform to this in design.
Even coat hooks are considered
as important items of hardware.
Brass, nickel plating and white
enamel are all used, depending on
the room in which the hooks are
placed. The two-prong hook is of
greatest utility. while there is a
three prong hook for bathroom or

REMUS PROBES
u. S. RECORDS
Evidence of Death Plot Is
Sought in Washington.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21-De-
fense prosecution attorneys in the
George Remus murder case at Gin
cinnati delved today into Depart
ment Of Justice records to ascertain
whether there was support for
Remus' story of a death plot against
him which led to his killing his wife.
Charles Elston and Carl E. Bas-
Ter, the Cincinnati searchers, con-
ferred with Oscar Luhring, assistant
attorney general, as to whether the
department records subsequntly
should be subpoenaed for use in the
trial.
The Justice files were supposed to
contain reports of Thomas Wilcox,
Detroit agent. on investigs stion OF
Remus' story Of a $4,000 payment
to have him killed. Remus has as
serted that his wife and Franklin
Dodge. a former dry investigator,
were interested in seeing him out
of the way. Dodge was present. to-
day, Ito see that no one puts any
thing over on me"
The justice departments interest
in the alleged conspiracy was said
to have arisen from the fact that
Remus was to be a Government wit
ness in the Jack Daniel liquor con-
spiracy case.

of the dead woman, was here ito see
that she gets a square deal"

MARION, Ill, Oct. 21.-Illinois to-

first of the notorious machine gun

The swarthy, illiterate Monte
negrin, who insisted to the end that
he killed in defense, went to his
death at 10:05, asserting he had
been made the "goat." He was con-

shortly before Sheriff Oren Cole

Millich's execution followed futile
efforts by defense attorneys to OBJ

@HE belief of e. w. scripps

IL cripple industry, but would
heighten prosperity through in
creased purchasing power, is ex-
planned.
THAT theory, derided at first,
led many persons to denounce the
Scripps papers as labor agitators.
Now it is a watchword Of indus

approval of Mr.. Coolidge. The
Scripps-McR papers, however,

with his men, played PEN
ny-ante with them, bossed them,
quarreled with them and listened
to them, and so by an intimate
process he instilled in them his
own definite ideas of the why of
newspaper. Fire the liar was a
favorite dictum. There was long
suffering patience for the blund-
ers of youth, but short shrift for
the deceiver. "A newspaper

it was he who formulated for
them the aspirations and princi-
Piles which, now that he is dead,
still mold their policies.
"As an Illinois farm boy, sitting
atop a rail fence, he had observed
that his fellows worked long and
hard for very little, and seldom rose
above persistent drudgery; he
had noted, too, that they were
ignored and inarticulate.
"Thus the idea came to him of a
newspaper for the under dog.
When, in 1870, he founded the
Penny Press (now the Cleveland
Press, he told Bob Paine, its ed
itor, that no man, with pull or
power or money was to be treated
better than any other man. This
was a keynote"

and found the full account in his
own paper and Of how the editor,
instead of getting fired, got his
salary raised.
There was another incident Of
those trying early days which had
its significance. A young adver-
tising man, by holding out collec-
tions, embezzled $4,000. 1t was a
great deal of money to the strug-
Cling paper. The business man
ager wired Scripps proudly that he
would lose nothing; a mortgage
had been taken on the home of
the delinquent's mother. You will
not prosecute came the angry re-
ply. you will cancel the mortgage
at once. You will put $4,000 in

United Press from a staff of
twelve persons, including the Of

teen languages, for newspapers in
thirty-eight ountries, with twen-
