The article is a feature rom the pen of Coralie Van Paassen According to this writer, Profes- sors koulaDkov and Andrelef of the staff of the Polytechnical Institute of Moscow succeeded in restoring to life for few minutes an individ- ual who had been dead in the Mos COW city morgue for twenty-nine hours
 Report of this miracle was pub ished in the weekly news bulletin of the Soviet Embassy in Paris. con hrmed and authenticated further by a report in The Berliner Tage- ple tt under the name of Dr. Eugene nlotz, German scientist who was present during the Moscow experi- ment.
 French scientific circles were much interested ill the report of the ex- periments and have invited the Rus sian scientists to repeat their ex- criments in Paris at the chemical society of the University The in yitation was accepted and the ex- pertinent continued on the 11th. of January. Many educators, and dis linguished Russian and German savants will be present at the expert ment.
 It was stated that unremitting ex- periments have been under way at the Polytechnic Laboratories of Moscow for three years. Professor Kravkov, chief of the bio-chemical department of the institution first succeeded in bringing back to life the ear of a rabbit the same being kept alive for several months in salt.
 The experiments were carried on leading the scientists to see if they could not get a rabbits heart t. respond to the same treatment The loart was removed and egpelImeA ed upon after it had ceased func tloning for several hours and to al- intents and purposes dead.
 The hearts of dogs and rabbits were prot hack to normal activity and even the heart of a child re- sponded to the treatment after dCath of the child for two hours. The child lived for ten days and then died to the disappointment of the doctors and they were unable to gel onlg further response from the child
 The success of Professor Koulab- kov's work heartened his associates SO they decided to experiment furthe Gn human beings. They secured some remarkable results.

"GentIemen Prefer
 Blondes''

United States Deputy Marshal Charles Valiant Brown of Peters, burg aroused no end of talk in the First Division by his nocturnal visits to the restricted rodlight districts of Petersburg. It was generally be- lioved that the oderiferous notoriety which he secured at that time was sufficient notice to him to discon- tinue said visits but according to re- cent observations with reliable wit aesses, it was not.
 One night the forepart of this week said Brown passiered up the Creek to the houses of Gommorrah. He knocked at the door of one Edna and was kept standing out on the perch some ten minutes in the cold before he was let in In fact, he was permitted to enter only because of his insfstenoe, The following con- vorsation was heard:
 Brown: II heard your victrola running 50 I came in. II know every one that is coming here I told you to make Peggy get out of here"
 Edna: Peggy is tn he'd sick"
 Brown: "I don't give (blank- ety-bIank ? l*** *) whether she is sick or nct. She has got to get cut"
 Edna: "mr. Brown, you have always picked on me, The past eammer you cost me over $1,5OO and 10 reason for it. I pay taxes in this town You let this line run wide open during the past summer but AS soon as I come here you pick on 7ne"
 Brown: .rhey (the other girly) own their own places"
 Edna: You arc blankety- blank liar You know they don't own them"
 Brown: 4 have told you that Peggy can't stay here, and she won't."
 A lot of language not permitted in publication by the postal depart ment was bandied back and forth between the representative of the Department of Justice and the ma dam of the house in which the De- partmont seemed most prolific and loudest. Edna then told Brown he could close her place and abate it. He left very shortly hereafter.
 At no time during that evening was the Victrola in use as can be attested by men who heard the whole performance and observed the movements of the United States Deputy Marshal.
 The madam of the house when seen said that about all she can do is close up her house, pay her bills and leave the country, Peggy, the oone of contention and object of the hatred of the Department of Justice representative, got aboard the gasboat Excel and left for Ket- thikan and other parts unknown. She got up out of her sick bed and left town because the Deputy Mar shal did not want her in Peters burg.

Another Bomb Exploded
 In Chicago Gang War

Chicago, Nov. 21 R-A bomb. exploding a block and a half from the home of States Attorney-dect John a. Swanson, wrecked the front of A. Becker cleaning and dying shop last night.
 Police viewed the explosion as ev- idence of open hostility between racketeers and cleaning concerns that "cut" prices and refuse to pay tribute.
 Judge Swanson, elected two weeks ago on a platform promising to rid Chicago of crime, was aroused by the blast. which occurred in the heart of a south side residential sev- tion. Several months ago Judge Ewansop's home was bombed.
 The bomb. apparently thrown from passing car, marked the sec ond outbreak in cleaning and dying circles within five days.
