CHAPTER III

A SHTORETH had bougnC a gar
N denia on her way to work, and
pinned it on her shoulder. 1t was
a reckless extravaganza, to be paid
for with various small economies.
Hollis Hart reflected that he had
never before seen a gardenia on a
stenographer. Violets and sweet
peas-yes. And orchids, occasion
ally. But never a gardenia, small
and we'll bred, on a slender crepe
clad shoulder.
He had a mental picture of Miss
de Mari as she had invaded his
Office. He remembered the triple
string of long imitation pearls
that beat against the buttons of her
blouse. And the angle of her ear
rings. There was something metal
lie about Mae.
And much that was soft, besides.
She was a clinging little thing,
redolent of cheap, sweet perfume.
Her body was small and lovely.
She reminded him of plump
Dresden figure on Aunt Meg's man
tie. The Dresden lady coquetted
with a China soldier, and Macs
technique, he thought, was much
the same. The way she chung and
raised her eyes so shyly.
"XXTELL, as I was saying" he
w continued, Miss de Mari
came on the heels of Mr.. Higgins,
who had just walked out, you re-
member, with my check for $4,000
in his pocket.
"She had been crying furiously,
and her eyes were red and swollen.
Nobody could possibly accuse me,
Miss AShe, of being enra ctured with
the girls beauty. She was positively
plain. But the most piteous little
spectacle ever saw.
There was a man, of course. He
had violated, is seemed, her girlish
faith and trust. Or so, at least, she
said. Her father had heard of the
affair and had been to the man, in
Sisting that he marry the girl. But
the fellow was already married.
"Well, the De Mari parents were
apparently hasty. They wounded
Mae in the tenderest spots and cast
her out in the cold. There must
have been terrific scene, and Mae,
as a result, contracted a severe ill
ness, wandering around that night
in the snow. Exactly like an old
melodrama, you see.
"a policeman picked her up and
took her to the city hospital. She
was there for three weeks, with no
one, she wept, to care whether she
lived or died.
when she had recovered suffi-
GENTLY to be dismissed she came
back here to work, as if nothing had
happened. After an unexplained
absence, mind you, of three weeks.
There had been unpleasant
stories, of course, about the poor
little devil. And our office manager,
being stern and virtuous woman,
gave her two weeks pay and dis
missed her then and there"
Mr.. Hart paused.
do I make her sound pathetic?
he questioned. Because I mustn't

ANOTHER UNSO-
LIGHTED TRIBUTE
FOR AlL-BRAN
Good news for sufferers
from constipation

Mrs. Kiell sat down and wrote
US a letter when she had proved
ALL-BRAN a safe "sure-cure" for
constipation. Read her voluntary
tribute:
April 4. 1927
II have been using Kelogg's ALL-BRAN
for quite some time and want to tell you
how much appreciate it. j have found it
q sure-cure for constipation. and know it
is q remarkable regulator for the stomach.
After using it, my family and certainly
win not be without it. / have even gone
90 far as 10 send some Of It to my mother
in Poland. Europe"
Gratefully yours.
MRS. ANNA KEEL;
~ Wolcott Terrace. Newark, N. j.
Perhaps you know what terri
bic affection constipation is. Blight
ing wherever it thrives. Running
health. Marring beauty. Causing
headaches, back pains, foul breath,
loss of sleep--indeed, leading to
more than forty serious diseases.
But did you know it can be easily
relieved by a pleasant cereal food?
Kelloeg's ALL-BRAN is guaran-
teed to bring relief. Eat two table
gpoonfuls daily-chronic cases, with
every meal. Serve with milk or
cream-fruits or honey added. Use
in cooking. At grocers. Made by
Kellogg in Battle Greek.

REPLY TO
GILLI0M MOVE
Shumaker's Motion Asks
Dismissal of Plea.

Motion to dismiss the motion of
Attorney General Arthur L. Gilliom
which would require the Rev. E. S.
Shumaker, secretary of the Indiana
Anti-Saloon League, to serve his
Jail sentence in the supreme court
contempt case was filed with the
court clerk Tuesday.
The motion, filed by the law firm
of Bingham 81 Bingham and Ethan
A. Miles, attorneys for the dry chief,
is based on the grounds of lack of
jurisdiction.
1t is contended that the matter of
the contempt sentence no longer is
within the power of the court to
act upon
Shumaker was found guilty Of
contempt of the supreme court be-
cause of allegations made in his 1926
report to the league trustees, in
which he termed some of the
judges wet" He was fined $500 and
sentenced to serve thirty days at
Indiana state farm.
After exhausting legal avenue of
escape in the state court, Shumaker
went to the farm, paid his fine and
was pardoned from serving the SEN
tence by Governor Ed Jackson.
Gilliom, who had started the or
iginal action in the court, then filed
motion asking the court to require
Shumaker to serve the jail sentence
or apologize. The motion was based
on the grounds that the Governor
does not have power to pardon in
such contempt cases.

STEWART GOES
CLEAR IN U. S.
PERJURY CASE
Jury Frees Oil Magnate
After So Minutes of
DeIiberation.
BY ROSCOE B. FLEMING
Times STAFF Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-Amid
much handshaking, Robert w.
Stewart walked from the court
house here yesterday a free man,
after a jury of nine men and three
women had taken f1fty-five minutes
to and him not guilty on a charge
of perjury.
Stewart was accused of giving the
senate public lands committee,
which investigated the oil scandals,
false testimony about disposition of
Liberty bonds representing profits
of the Continental Trading Com
pany.
The acquittal represents the
fourth defeat of the government in
criminal proceedings growing out
of the oil scandals.
The Stewart perjury case revolved
almost wholly on the methods Of the
senate public lands committee,
Justice Bailey charged the jury
that unless the government had
shown Ghat there were eight mem
DC4o3 IN-iSOAvuC11lS quOI btlAl, IJIcoSAlS
when Stewart testified, the COM
mittee was not a competent tribunal,
Stewart could not have committed
perjury, and they need go no fur
ther to acquit him. The government
could not show that quorum had
been present.
Under senate rules, the committee
could have changed it's own rules so
that six members would have consti-
tuted a quorum, but Bailey held it
had not done this, since only five
members were present when the at
tempt was made on Dec. 81, 1927.
The defense also made effective
use of the fact that more than 300
stenographers' errors were found
in the committees printed record OF
Stewards testimony and of the fac
that the committees minutes were
not written until four monhs after
it's meeting.

CHICAGO GANG
WAR FLAMES
IN new FURY
Cleaning Plant Near Home
of New Prosecutor Is
Wrecked by Bomb.

By United Press
CHICAGO, Nov. 21.-A branch of
the Becker Cleaning and Dyeing
Company, fostered and protected by
the power Of "Scarface AL" Capone,
Chicago gang lord, was wrecked by
a dynamite bomb today
The blast occurred within a block
and a half of the home of John A..
Swanson, states attorney-elect, who
has promised to put the racketeers
out of business when he takes Office
In December. Swanson's own home
was wrecked by a bomb during the
April primary
The bombing occurred shortly
after midnight. Scores Of police and
citizens rushed to the home Of
Swanson, believing he had been the
target of second bomb attack.
Several families lived above the
cleaning shop but escaped injury.
Damage was estimated under $1,000.
All the windows were broken and
one wall was destroyed entirely.
Morris Becker, head of the clean
ing company, laid the blast to the
Master Cleaners and Dyers' ASso-
citation. He said the masters had
been cutting prices in an effort to
drive him out of business, but that
he had met all reductions.
Becker, some time ago, ran one
Of the largest plants in Chicago,
but met financial difficulties, due,
he said, to gangsters getting con-
troll of the business.
He then took "Scarface Alp Ca
pone, gangster leader, into partner
ship, and the bombingS and slug
sings that had been so frequent,
died down.
Of the Laundry and Dyehouse
Chauffeurs' and Helpers Union, was
shot to death Sunday night. His
death was taken as the opening
shot in another war to control the
cleaning racket"
Last nights bombing is believed
to be another chapter in the bitter
battle to gain mastery of the clean
ing business, one of the most lu-
crative the racketeers have.
Clay'S life was said to have been
taken in revenge for the killing of
big Tim" Murphy, ex-convict and
power in the underworld Clay was
a suspect in the shooting, but was
not charged.
Murphy, shortly before his death,
vas reported to be marshaling his
forces to take over the cleaning
racket"
