We are going 70 be handicapped
in the 1928 games by comparison
with other nations. For instance,
Germany and England have shown
far greater advancement IN athletics
for women than has the Unitad
States.
But there is the basis for a fine
start at Amsterdam. even though the
sport is still young in this country.
One thing | would emphasize i
the fact that IL track and field
sports for women are worth doing
they are worth doing we'll and every
facility and encouragement should
be Forthcoming so that the women
and girls have the proper chance
to improve by means Of training and
competition.
A recent newspaper item from
Germany disclosed that a squad OF
30 German women have been gath
cred at Frankfort for a special
training course preparatory 70 the

This is the sort Of thing which y

ming gown of black Chantilly lace
over cream-colored chiffon, and
across the arm of the davenport had
been thrown an evening cape of
cloth f-gold trimmed with ern1ne.
There were evidences of her inef-
fectual struggle with the person
who had Strangled her. Besides the
disheveled condition of her hair, one
of the shoulder straps Of her gown
had been severed and there was a
long rent in the fine lace across her
breast.
A small corsage of artificial or
chids had been torn from her bod
ice, and lay crllmpled in her lap.
One satin slipper had fallen off,
and her right knee was twisted in
ward on the seat of the davenport,
as if she had sought to lift herself
out of the suffocating clutches of
her antagonist.
Her fingers were still f1exed, no
doubt as they had been at the mo-
ment of her capitulation to death,
when she had relinquished her grip
upon the murderer's wrists.
The spell of horror cast over us
by the sight of the tortured body
was broken by the matter-of fact
tones of Heath.
"You see, Mr.. Markham, she was
evidently sitting in the corner of
this settee when she was grabbed
suddenly from behind"
Markham nodded. ut must have
taken a pretty strong man to
strangle her SO easily"
I'll say!" agreed Heath. He bent
over and pointed to the girls fin
gers, on which showed several
abrasionS. "They stripped her rings
off, too; and they didn't go about
it gentle, either"
Then he indicated a segment of
fine platinum chain, set with tiny
pearls, which hung over one Of her
shoulders.
And they grabbed whatever 1t
was hanging around her neck, and
broke the chain doing it. They
weren't overlooking anything, or
losing any time. :. A swell, gentle
manly job. Nice and refined"
Where's the medical examiner"
asked Markham.

There was a large davenport, COW
cred with brocaded silk, in front of
the fireplace in the left-hand wall
of the living room, with a long mar
row library table of inlaid rosewood
extending along its back.
On the opposite wall, between the
foyer and the archway into the bed
room hung a triplicate Marie An
toinette mirror, beneath which stood
mahogany gate-leg table.
On the far side Of the archWay,
near the large oriel window, was a
Baby Grand Steinway piano, with
beautifully designed and decorated
case of Louis-Seize ornamentation.
In the corner to the right of the
fireplace was a spindle-legged escri-
toire and a square, hand-painted
waste-paper basket Of vellum.
To the left of the fireplace stood
one of the loveliest Boule cabinets
I have ever seen. Several excellent
reproductions of Boucher, Frago-
nard and Vatican hung about the
walls.

drawers, dressing table and sever

HEARINGS OPEN
ON DAM BILL
Power Interests Begin War
on Western Project.
BY RUTH FINNEY

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18.-Just as
the Washington power lobby as
sembAed its biggest guns in position
to attack the Walsh resolution for
investigating the power industry,
the Senate has opened hearings on
the other measure of paramount in
terest to this group, the Swing
Johnson Boulder dam bill.
AS a result, corridors of the cap
itol buildings swarm with one of the
most extensive lobbies seen here in
years, its purpose the defeat of both
the johnson and Walsh proposals.
But while power representatives
will testify in committee against the
Walsh resolution, their activities
against the Swing Johnson bill ap-
parently are to be carried on less
openly.
Differences among the States as
to division of waters Of the Colo
RADIO River and power privileges will
be made the talking point against
the Boulder dam bill.
Governors Of three Colorado River
States are here and fourth has
sent his personal representative,
while water commissioners are here
from the remaining three States af-
fected.
Although Arizona denies she
wants the river turned over to
private interests for development,
her fight apparently will be utilized
by the power lobby as a shield and
a weapon to accomplish defeat of
the bill.

CHAPTER III

A S Markham entered the Odell
L n apartment that morning Sergt.
Ernest Heath came forward at once
and extended his hand.
A look of relief passed over his
broad, pugnacious features; and IL
was obvious that the animosity ana
rivalry which always exist between
the detective division and the dis
trict attorneys Office during the in
vestigation of any criminal case had
no place in his attitude on this oc-
caSion.
I'm glad you've come, sir" he
said; and meant it.
He then turned to Vance with a
cordial smile, and held out his hand.
80 the amachoor sleuth is with
us again!" His tone held a friendly
banter.
"Oh, quite" murmured Vance.
Flows your induction coil working
this beautiful September morning,
Sergeant?"
I'D hate to tell you!" Then
Heath's face grew suddenly grave.
and he turned to Markham. cts
a raw deal, sir. Why in hell couldn't
they have picked some one besides
the Canary for their dirty work?
There's plenty of James on
Broadway who coulda faded from
the picture without causing a Sec
ond alarm; but they gotta go and
bump off the Queen of Sheba!"
AS he spoke, William M. Moran,
the commanding officer of the de-
tective bureau, came into the little
foyer and performed the usual
Misunderstanding ceremony.
Though he had met Vance and
me but once before, and then casu-
ally, he remembered us both and
addressed us courteously by name.
Your arrival" he said to Mark
ham, in a well-bred, modulated
voice, sis very welcome. Sergeant
Heath will give you what prelimina-
ry information you want. I'm still
pretty much in the dark myself
only just arrived"
"a lot of information I've got to
give" grumbled Heath, as he led
the way into the living room.
Margaret Odell's apartment was
a suite of two fairly large rooms
connected by a wide archway draped
with heavy damask portieres.
The entrance door from the main
hall of the building led into a small
rectangular foyer about eight feet
long and four feet deep, with dou-
BILE Venetian glass doors opening
into the main room beyond.
There was no other entrance to
the apartment, and the bedroom

gaze was almost Immediately
drawn and held by the body of the
dead girl, which rested in an I'M
natural, SEMI attitude in
the corner of the davenport nearest
to where we stood.
Her head was turned backward,
as if by force. over the silken tuft-
ed upholstery; and her hair had
come unfastened and lay beneath
her head and over her bare Shoul-
der like a frozen cataract of liquid
gold.
Her face, in violent death, was
distorted and unlovely. Her skin
was discolored; her eyes we're star
ing; her mouth was open, and her
lips were drawn back. Her neck on
either side of the thyroid cartilage,
showed ugly dark bruises.
She was dressed in a f1imsy eve

declared Heath. Look at this
apartment. 1t wouldn't be much
worse if Kansas cyclone had
struck it,"
We turned from the depressing
spectacle of the dead girl and moveo
toward the center of the room.
BE careful not to touch any,
thing, Mr.. Markham" warned
Heath. 1--WE sent for the finger
print eXperts-they'll be here any
minute now"
Vance looked up in mock aston
iShment.
"Finger-prints? You don't say
really! How delightful!-Imagine
a johnnie in this enlightened day
leaving his f1nger-prints for you to
find"
"All crooks aren't clever, Mr..
Vance" declared Heath combatively.
"Oh, dear no! They'd never be
apprehended if they were. But,
after all, Sergeant, even an
authentic finger print merely means
that the person who made it was
dallying around at some time or
other. 1t doesn't indicate guilt"
Maybe So" conceded Heath dog
gedly. But I'm here to tell you
that if get any good honest-to-

Markham interposed himself at
this point, and suggested they
make tour of inspection while
waiting for the Medical Examiner.
"They didn't add anything much
to the usual methods" Heath
pointed out. KILLED the girl, and
then ripped things wide OPEN"

Had Terrible Gas
and Stomach Pains
Says He Eats Anything Now, and
Has Pep and Health

People who are suffering from the
pangs Of stomach trouble and in
digestion, will be glad to read how
Frank Baker, 625 Keasley ST., South
Bend, Ind, quickly overcame these
agonizing Affections. He writes as
follows:
"Since over year ago, have had
bad case of stomach trouble that
just wore me out. 1 had sick spells
that left me weak, dizzy and nerv-
GUS. My appetite was very poor, and
after meals the food would not di-
gest, but felt like a rock in the pit
of my stomach. had burning pains
in my stomach. I could not sleep at
night, even though I was all tired
out. In the morning, got up feel
ing weaker and worse than when I
went to bed. I lost weight and had
no pep at all. The first and only
relief came when I started taking
Viuna. Almost at once began to
get well. I took it regularly and
soon felt like a different man. The
bilious attacks and burning pains
stopped, my appetite came back, and
my digestion improved wonderfully.
can eat heartily again with no gas,
and no rock-like sensation in my
stomach. My nerves are steady. I
sleep splendidly every night, and
feel full of pep when I get up. Life
sure looks different for me since I
got back to health, and I'm mighty
thankful to Viuna."
Yiuna acts promptly on sluggish
bowels, lazy liver and weak kidneys. It
purihes the blood, clears the skin. re-
stores appetite and digestion, and brings
new strength and energy to the whole
body. Take bottle on trial. Then If
you're not glad you tried Viuna, your
money will be refunded. 81 at druggists

to his friend Markham, who is consid-
