COP COPS BET AND MAN
Shoe Polish Delay Causes Arrest of
Race Better.

GLASGOW, Nov. John Car
michael, wishing to make a bet on
the fourth race, sent his 9-year-old
daughter to place the bet with a
"bookie." The girl offered the
money to a policeman in plain
clothes.
When Carmichael was brought
to court. he said he would have
placed the bet, but that he had to
stay at home and wash the baby,
who had rubbed shoe polish over
its face. If he had waited until
they baby was washed he would
have been to late for the race.

NEW YORK, April IS. (P)-Frag- mentary details from the frozen north were pieced together and revealed a dramatic story of the Bremen success fully groping blind thru fog and bliz- Dard for the continent of it's destina- ton.
 The suspicious start developed at the end into battle with the elements as the fliers were some 400 miles off their course due partly to failure of the planes lighting system. For hours the flight was blind and at one time the plane was but 50 feet from the water
 A strange river was seen, then a mountain, and at last they sighted what appeared to be sailing steamer. It proved, however, to be the light house on Greenly Island.
 A blizzard swept the ocean all night and their lighting system failed. In the darkness the fliers were, unable to read the insetruments Here, Captain Koehl's long experience in night fly ing, stood them in good stead. Day break gave them an opportunity to correct their direction
 Finally in dispair, after fighting the fog and storms, they landed but did know where. The plane broge thru the ice on the lake bending the metal propeller and breaking the axle and landing gear.

SURRURY, Mass. (P1-Shadows of
men who died two hundred years ago
have stretched across the centuries
to cloud titles to land in Sudbury,
home Of Henry Ford's "Wayside Inn"
Rights granted by King James
early in. the seventeenth century
to the Plymouth Bay colony may
prove the basis Of a court battle to
determine ownership of ancient
Sudbury's meadow lands. Warren
r. Wetherbee, who claims descent
from some Of the one-time "Pro-
prietors of Sudbury Plantation" has
revived the question of whether
lands held unquestioned for gener-
atoms may not belong to the "pro-
prietors-"
So far as is known Wayside Inn
is not likely to be involved, but
Henry Ford's representatives have
interested themselves in the case.
Mill land on Hop Brook. on which
Ford holds an option, may be in
volved.
The property involved is valued at
$4,000, COO. But the effect OF a court
decision in favor Of descendants Of
the old proprietors might have far
reaching effects, for many other
lands in New England are held under
titles similar to those now in effect
in Sudbury.

Lapwings Cross
Atlantic Ocean

LONDON, EngIand.-PEThe At
lantic has been flown from east 70
west-by a flock Of birds.
Thousands OF the lapwings, small
European birds Of the plover family,
have recently appeared in Newfound-
land. They bore the marks Of long
and unusual travel. Many were ex-
hausted and others were found dead,
Proof that the birds had crossed
from England was furnished to A. F.
Witherby, noted English ornithoio-
gist, when he received word from
Newfoundland that a ring which he
had attached to a lapwing in Cum
berland in 1926 was found on one Of
the birds discovered in the new
world.
1T is the most extraordinary
transatlantic migration of birds
that we know" said Mr.. Witherby.
1T is known that l~apwings cross to
Ireland in bad weather, and possibly
these were blown out 10 sea by a
gale and carried on"
Mr.. Witherby thinks Il impossible
that this flock of travellers could
have picked up their food on the
journey by following steamers, or
could have stolen n ride. They feed
on grass fields and ocean vessels
would not provide rations for them.
"They probably flew at 40 miles
an hour in their own speed" the bird
specialist calculated, "and we're help
ed by n gale, which might bring
their mileage to over 10 miles an
hour"
Only isolated and struggling speci-
mems of the lapwing have previously
been seen in America.

Monks Keep
Rule of Silence
In Ancient Abbey

PESOTA, In. R1-Not far from the
twentieth century lights Of Dubuque,
a group Of medievally-clad men live
by the rule Of silence as conceived in
the hopes Of st. Robert in the elev-
enth century.
They are Cistercian monks, known
as Trappists, and their abode is the
New Melleray Abbey, sheltered in a
cloister of natures making, amid
towering pines in the hill country
ear the Mississippi River.
In 1S49 forty monks of the order
came from Ireland at the invitation
CT Bishop Loras of Dubuque to es-
tablish a home in America. The
Abbey has existed since then, its
quaintness of medieval times I'M
touched by the swirl Of the world
around IL.
For years the membership was
only 20-it Is 80 now-5ut some
months age Father Columcill, now
guest master, came from Ireland
and he hopes to extend the work
until the monastery houses from
100 to 800 choir and lay brothers.
The rule cf silence is not abso-
lutte and the Trappists do not
count il a hardship. They recite
the office and have occasion, once
or twice a day, perhaps, to speak
to a superior. Their discipline per-
mits them &C. speak only when ne
cessity compels.
They follow a quiet life OF prayer.
labor, self denial, contemplation
and silence.
The choir brothers are the priests,
and those studying for Hcly Orders
ard the lay brothers perform the
more mental tasks.
The first group works from three
to four hours daily in the fields
and the lay brothers from six to
eight.
On week days the monks arise ut
2 a. m. and on Sundays at / n. m.
They sleep seven hours n day in the
winter and six in the summer, in
box-like stalls, stained dark, about
four feet wide. seven feet long. and
six feet high. Within each Is a
couch extending the length OF the
crbicle, with q mattress Of straw.
The abbey, Of time-stained stcne
IN Gothic style, was built between
1863 and 1875.
Brownsville herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1910-current, 1928-03-11

The beginning Of the question lies
in the grant OF the English crown OF
various territories. Corporations Of
proprietors held all the common land
and all unclaimed land. The pro.
pr~ietors ceased activity in most
places about 1850, although evidence
exists that Sudbury proprietors oc.
c~asionally functioned as late as 1904,

the selectmen, has been chosen az

p%rietors and has been directed 70

Persons who have studied the rec.

some were never claimed.
There are said to be marsh lands
