British Fair Sex Wonder About
 Horsemanship

London, Oct. S (P,-"My Kingdom for horse.' Richard the Third is credited with saying-but British young women say: My kingdom for how 10 hide him."
 Ever since the King was nuot.d as saving he disapproved of young women riding astraddle. the society fair sex Of the kingdom have split into two camps-those who ride With both legs on one side. and those who ride with one leg on each side
 The elderly section Of society fol- lowing the example of the King, disapprove Of riding astraddle. The younger section Of society, though unwilling 10 tiaunt the Kings opin- ion. nevertheless are 10 be seen riding cowboy fashion" along Rot ten Row, Hyde Park and to hunt ing meets. They maintain that il Is more exhilarating and their ap- pearance IS more jaunty.
 Perhaps fashion, however. has something to do with it. The debu- tantes who believe they look bet ter in riding brooches than in rid ing skirt will ride astraddle, and vice versa.
 The Hon. Georgina Curzon. only daughter Of Viscount and Viscount- ess Curzon, is an advocate of tn, more conservative method of rid Ing. She wears high riding boots, but keeps her skirt discreetly long.
 Advocates Of the newer style. however, are in the majority. Misses Jane and Mary Maitland, noted May fair society girls, are opponents or the "breeches" style. The younger girls hair rolls down her back in rInglets, and both affect Puritan hats. instead Of "bowlers." Miss Peg gy Paget, daughter Of the Countess of Drogheda. favors helmet hat and brooches.
 The motorcar may have driven the horses out Of the commercial world, but it has not driven him from the social world. Riding is just as popular today among the socially elite as 1t was before the motorcar made it debut.
 Rotten Row. is a curious name for the exclusive drive in Hyde Park. But it Is corruption of q more high sounding name, Rue du Roi.' meaning avenue of the King.

REBEL LEADERS
FACE EXECUTION.
WITH FORTITUDE

MEXICO CITY, Nov. Up = The
rebel leaders executed in recent days
in the state OF Vera Cruz faced the

among Mexican military men.
Fernando Reyes, rugged old revoIu-
tionist of the Villa days, when he stood
before the squad, took command him
self and personally issued the order
to fire. In obedience to his words the
bullets ploughed Through his body.
General Adalberto Palacios turned
to the spectators when some joke caus-
ed them merriment, and said rebuk-
ingly: ''This is no laughing natter
PaIacios, however, laughed himself,
when Martinez Pulido, who was stand
ing beside him ready to be shot, asked
Palacios for a few pesos. s
BE sure and pay them back" said
Palacios, handing the money to Pulido
who gave it to the members of &c
firing squad as an inducement to take
good aim and put the bullets through
his heart
To insure precise craftsmanship and
instant death, Pulido unbuttoned his
shirt, barred his chest, and pointed his
finger at the heart, as the soldiers
fired.

WINSETT TALKS
ON FLAPPER OF
MODERN Times

Last nights services in the revival
were interesting throughout. Monday
night Evangelist Winsett asked for
anv one who would to write their
definition of a flapper and bring
it to the service last night. Many
were brought and several were read
to the audience. Some of them read:
"a flapper is the answer to a shiek's
PRAYER" "a flapper is a person of
the feminine gender who paints,
smokes. necks and wears scanty cloth
ing" "a flapper is an extremely
modern young woman. one who with
bobbed hair, smiles a little, drinks a
! little, pets q little, wears dresses a
little shorter than other folks, paints
and powders a little more than other
folks, but, stops short of immortality"
Il would describe "a flapper as a
person we read about in the third
! chapter of Isaiah, nVerses Is to 26.
Also women lovingt things of this
world better than, GOO, Love not
! the world, neither the things of the
world. If any man love the world
the love Of the Father is not in
him." 'S
All of these definitions of q flapper
were signed but names were not read
I, Preliminary to the sermon, the evan
geliSt commented on the editorial in
the Dispatch this morning regarding
Thomas Edison's statements. Win
sett said Mr.. Edison. is eminently cor
+. rect in his predictions of war clouds
that are now gathering in Europe.
He read statement from Lloyd
George saying that ten million men
are under arms in Europe tonight.
A war danger conference is to meet
in London November % to 25 Be
not surprised if a world conflict shall
break on us before this year is up.
/ The evangelist changed his theme
for the evening and preached a ser
mon on hell, or the eternal punish
nent of the wicked. He discussed
duration of hell and it's population.
His sermon was terrific in the de-
scription of the torrnents of hell He
read the story of the rich man and
Lazarus, from which his theme was
deducted.
/ Tonight Evangelist Winsett will
! have all the objects on the platform
with which he will illustrate the
''Buzzard Roost" sermon. The mes
sage will be one of the most daring
the evangelist has yet delivered in
7 the meeting. The object lesson will
tbe made to talk to guilty hearts
No mention was made by the
evangelist Of the. attempted way
laying Monday night City officers
and men Of the church were on
\ guard, and crowd of some Is were
dispersed in the church yard as the
evangelist was delivering his mes
sage, rltrnors of threatened violence
/ to the preacher reached his ears dur
ing the day, but no trouble is an
ticipated, as the city officials have
given full assurance of adequate pro-
lection to the evangelist.

by A. J. Cook, secretary of the
British Federation of Miners, slept

of the unemployed.
One hundred or more of the min
ers gathered for the march were
sleeping tonight in quarters provided
by a fund which Cook has spent
months in raising. The recruits were
supplied with hot meals which came
partly from the wives of miners who
still have jobs.
Perth was the center of today's
activities. Hundreds of men, women
and children assembled IN the town
square at Perth to witness The start
of So well shod men, each hero
man had an extra pair OF boots tied
together by their strings, thrown over
his shoulders. Fhey also had well
filled haversacks and miners lamps,
which were intended TO be useful as
well as syrnbolical
Soon after 6 o'clock this evening,
the Porth group was reinforced by
30 other men from the Ogmore,
Rhondda and Aberdare valleys. The
marchers headed for Newport and
were accompanied for mile out
of Porth by women, children and
old men, who. cheered them and bade
the marchers farewell Eve
Most of the marchers, as they trod
the highways through ine marrow
valleys to Join the main forces at
Newport, sang "The Red Flag" and
other revolutionary songs. &t

mines northeast of Tucson have been
charged with entering, occupying,
molesting and leaving in an unsan-

sYNC OP ATION.
OLD IN MEXICO.
BEFORE HISTORY

PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov 8, P)-Mex-
leans were versed in the art OF syn
copation thousands of years ago,
according to Harold Lyman Brown
archaeologist Of Portland, Maine,
who was in Phoenix today.
Brown, who came here enroute
from Mexico City to Chicago, de-
clared that excavators in the Mexico
valley have unearthed strange music
al instruments which resemble mod
ern implements of jazz. These dis
coveries bore evidence of a prehlstor-
ic race wit ha propensity for syn
copation, he. declared.
''We found horns made from ami
NAL tusks capable Of producing weird
means like the saxaphone,' declared
Brown. "Other instruments resem-
bled the clarinet We also uncovered
an assortment of drums which would
have been worthy of modern ex-
ponent of Syncopation. 23
3 Judging from our finds continued
Brown, sit is not improbable that
centuries ago flappers and drug
store cowboys of another age did the
charleston an dthe 'blackbottom' to
the strains of jazz"
Brown stated that the musical
relics of Mexico valley would be

MORE CAROLIST
PLOTS Are Laid
BARE BY ARREST

4 BUCHAREST, Nov. {P)-Rumania
was Just recovering from the shock OF
the alleged Manoilescu plot to restore
former Crown Prince Carol to the
throne when the country was again
plunged into state OF agitation and
uncertainty, eliminating in the re-
establishment of censorship today, by
the arrest in border town of lieu
tenant and his wife. They we're said
to have communicated with Prince
Carol
One opposition payer, "Adevert's"
took advantage OF its last edition be-
fore the censorship became effective
to charge that Premier Bratiano was
preparing to establish a dictatorship
along the line of that of General Primo
De Rivera in Spain. The paper calls
for denial from the government il
its information is not correct, declar-
ing that if no denial is Forthcoming
the opposition and all democratic IN
tereSts should prepare for struggle
against usurpation of the constitution
Information received here today is
that Lieut. Tcodoru and his wife, who
were arrested at the border city, yes
terday were searched and . in their
automobiles ''most interesting doct-
ments were found. The pair, VINO
were arrested at Ceanat, near Tenles-
var, on their way QUE Ct the country,
were brought to Bucharest today Tor
further interrogation by the Rumanlan
secret police.
Teodoru was formerly attached to
the aviation section of the army, Of
which Prince Carol once was chief. IN
official circles here it is said that
Teodoru had an important mission to
perform between Prince Carol and
certain Rumanian political leaders. He.
is said to have had no direct dealings
with NJ. Manoilescu, former under Sec
retary for finance who was recently
arrested, but to have acted as 1nde-'
pendent courier for the former crown
prince.
On the heels of these occurrences
Col. Carapancea, chief commIssar OF
the second army corps, left Tor JasSy'
capital of Moldavia, because, it was
said, of secret information received py
the government in regard to a CarollSG
plot. He will investigate supposed
ranlifications there.
Additional reports here are tnab
Octavian Coga, former minister OF the
interior in the Averescu cabinet, has
been implicated in efforts to place
carol on the thron. by a confession OF
a Madame Greceanu, Of Arab, who is
alleged to have received secret COM
ml1nications from Paris, where Carol
is living, for Coga.
There is, a widespread belief here
that a. military court martial az the
behesJ, will formally
condemn M. Manoilescu to five years
penal seryitude for his contacts Win
Carol, as an example of what Will
happen to other politicians who
espouse the cause Of the exiled prince.
1t is expected that after a few days IN IN
prison the former under secretary Tor
finance will be granted amnesty upon
his promise to refrain from similar
dynastic activities in the future.

COCHISE COUNTY
HAS
BOOTH AT FAIR

PHOENIX, Nov. 8-Cochise county
at the Arizona State Fair which
opened Monday morning, is repre-
sented in the agricultural building
with an attractively decorated booth
The color scheme of blue and white
is being carried out effectively by
O. T. Green, in charge of the exhibit,
assisted by George Doubleday, OF the
Chamber of Commerce and Mines OF
Douglas.
Exhibits of outstanding quality from
Cochise county are the Valencia
onion, fruits, truck crops and grains.
DR.. Oscar G. Bartlett, state ento-
mologist, who is superintendent OF
the agricultural and horticultural
building, after looking oyer the en-
tries from the eight counties which
have made complete county exhibits,
states that entries are more complete
and the quality of the products are
much superior to those ever shown
at any fair in the past 10 years
Noteworthy among the exhibits OF
unusual quality are the apples from
the counties in the higher elevations
of the state; potatoes from several
northern counties, the most complete
exhibit of which is, from Coconino
county; the citrus fruit, mostly from
Maricopa county, with some very
choice specimens from Pinal; dates
from Maricopa county, and grapes
from Maricopa and several other
counties.
Judge E. P. Sandsten, horticultural
ist of the Colorado College of Agri-
culture, is again placing the awards.
1t is probable that judging will not
be completed until Thursday owing
to the large number of entries and
the keen competition.
Arizona is unique among the states
OF the union because of the great va
riety of products which are grown
under the varying climatic conditions
due to the great range Of elevation.
