ALFONSO'S COCKTAIL
HELD IRRESISTIBLE
King Takes Sherry, Curacao and
Orange Peel to Make His
Favorite Beverage.

MADRID (N.AN.A.) - Every one
knows that King Alfonso Is no great
lover of wine, but he has a favorite
cocktail, an irresistible cocktail. You
make it as follows: Take wine glass
full of sherry and add a little curacao
and piece of orange peel cut so finely
that it looks like small bit of paper
That's all; and you have a drink
not only fit for king, but magnetic
thereunto. That, however, means
nothing to the U. S. A.
Hitherto Spain has been a country
that encouraged pretty girls, and what
is far more, encouraged them openly
and audibly. Young men in the streets
voiced their warm approval as the girls
passed; they had been voicing it fol-
many long day.
But times change. Spanish young
ladies have been abroad where admira-
ton is more discreetly rendered and
either for this or other reasons the
"piropo," or street admirer, has fallen
! from grace. So far has he fallen that
he has been arrested In hundreds OF

terial from which the fabric Is made,
but the weave of the cloth. An open
weave transmits the largest percentage
of the ray. Also, a cloth which does
not shrink is more valuable from this
standpoint than one that does.

police department before the day is
over.
Nineteen members of the force,
including all the ranking officers,
have been indicted for conspiracy
to violate the Volstead act and will
be asked to resign today or face
expulsion.
The indictments were returned by
a federal grand jury at South Bend

liquor, vice and gambling conditions
in northern Indiana. The nineteen
policemen were arrested and were
released on $4,000 bond each. Eight
other persons, including a Negro
alderman, also were arrested on sim
liar charges.

Ell Times Special
COUTH BEND, Ind, Oct. TO-
- Now some men can take
their liquor or leave it alone.
Again, there are men like Benja-
min F. Simmons of Detroit.
Ben is a bus driver and a good
one, as several of his passengers
will testify. But it was a cold
morning, and just before Ben left
Chicago with his big vehicle, he
cheered himself with a glass of
the liquor. 1t made Ben very
warm and happy and generous.
What could Ben do to make the
trip to Detroit more pleasant for
his passengers? The passengers
got their first intimation when he
slowed up in Gary to take them
over to see the steel mills. And
there was a school that that they
really ought to see. So they ran
over and saw the school.
ok Of the passengers found
- they'd got on the wrong bus
and left. The rest clinched their
teeth and watched Ben as he
swung the bus on to the highway
for South Bend. Seven hours later
they arrived here, five hours be-
hind schedule, but with a long
list of side trips.
South Bend" said Ben, "s a
very nice town. I'll show it to
you"
Ten minutes later police head
quarters began getting a number
of phone calls.
First from the studebaker Cor
poration.
There's a big bus tearing
around our factories down here.
It's gone around one building
three times. Can't you stop it"
There was another call came
from a householder a mile from
the Studebaker plants:
police station? Well, there's a
big bus full of people just tore
down the alley back Of u house.
The driver was pointing and"
So a second patrol car started
after the bus.

SCRIPTS SUIT is
IN COURT AGAIN
Widows Appeal Is Heard in
100000 Case.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 1o.-The fed
eral circuit court of appeals today
began hearing arguments on the
appeal of Mrs. Josephine Scripps OF
Miramir, Cal, from a lower court
decision dismissing her suit to COL
lect approximately $6,000,000 she
claims is due under an alleged part
nership contract between the late
E. w. Scripps and her husband, the
late James Scripps.
Federal Judge Smith w. Hicken-
topper, in the lower court, held that
no contract existed and that every
man reserved the right to dispose
of his property as he sees fit" The
defendant Is Robert P. Scripps,
brother Of James, who was made
trustee of the elder ScrippS' estate
under a lifetime trust agreement
created by his father.
Mrs. Scripps was represented by
former secretary Of state Charles
Evans Hughes, while Robert Scripps'
counsel was former secretary Of war
Newton D. Baker.
Hughes argued that E. w. and
James Scripps entered into a verbal
c%ontractual agreement, which was
substantiated by correspondence ex-
change by them. Baker contended
that no actual contract existed and
asserted that Mrs. ScrippS waited
until five years after her husbands
death before she, as e%xecutrix OF
her husbands estate, fled the
claims.

YANKEE ACTOR
IS CHEERED IN
BRITISH DEATH
Philip Yale Drew Is Free of
Murder Charge in
Reading, England.
CHEERED BY THRONGS
Thousands Wish Good Luck
to TheSpian, Shout Joy
at Verdict.
BuU nfted Press

BU United PTess
READING, England, Oct. 10.-A
corners jury which had heard testi-
mony for almost a week classified
the death of Alfred Oliver, 60-year-
old -tobacconist, as an unsolved
murder today.
The verdict. returned after two
hours forty-eight minutes of DELHI
Grafton, was that Oliver was murdered
by some person or persons unknown,
although the coroner. in summing
up, indicated his personal opinion
that the American actor, Philip
Yale Drew, was connected with the
killing. The coroner refused to per-
nit Drew's counsel to address the
jury before it deliberated.
Oliver was slain in his tobacco
shop in Cross street shortly after
6 p. m. June %. He was robbed of
$50.
A butcher testified he had seen
Drew. then playing the part of a
detective in The Monster" at a
local theater, in Cross street during
the afternoon and also after the
crime. A housewife added she had
observed Drew wiping blood from
his face in the doorway Of the to-
bacco shop soon after 6 p. m.
PopuIace Favor Drew
Drew, who comes from Marsh1eld
Hills, Mass, won the sympathy OF
the populace by his fight against
the evidence. Each day he appeared
at the inquest he was cheered. To-
day a crowd of several thousand
crowded outside the town hall and
shoWered him with flowers and good
luck tokens, as he entered for the
final session.
On leaving, twenty policemen
formed a Gordon about him and
escorted him to his hotel amid n
precedented scenes Of enthusiasm.
The galleries wildly cheered the
verdict as soon as it was read. When
the coroner raised his hand for
silence, many one pushed for
ward, flung their arms about Drew,
and kissed him.
On previous days. a throng Of
admirers always was ready to escort
him to the chamber. MaScots, white
heather and money were given him,
with good wishes that the jury
would not name him.
Insists He's Innocent
Drew insisted from the first that
he had not been In Cross street the
day of the murder. He would con-
tend that statement against the tes-
tjmory of 5000 persons To the con-
trary, he said.
II did not kill a t~obacconist," he
said. 1" was making from $50 to
800 and did not need to rob-"
He testified he spent the after
noon of June % in the darkened
theater writing a poem, THE The
alter Speaks" for an undisclosed
American magazine.
The stage manager said he had
heard Drew enter the theater sing
ing at 6 p. m. and had found him
dressed for his part and ready for
makeup at 6:l7.

City OzCmeryhip of Gas Plant
WIZ Be Urged by Democrats
Sullivan to Give Platform at
TomIinson Hall Rally
Tonight.

Municipal ownership of the gas
company, economy III government,
and low taxes will be among the
planks in the Democratic city cam
paign platform which Reginald H.
Sullivan, Democratic candidate for
mayor, will announce tonight at
the rally in Tomlinson hall.
Sullivan also is expected to de-
clare for ample Fairgrounds, public
Improvements, a fine municipal air
port and enlargement of the city
hospital.
Sullivan's program will be to make
all necessary improvements; but to
make desirable and not necessary
improvements only when the city's
finances will permit such expend-
iture.
To attract new industries to the
city, taxation should be kept as low
as possible, Sullivan will say.
VIII Hit Machine
He is expected to brand as costly,
useless and extravaganza the main
tenance of a political machine,
Which is generally inimical to pub
lie welfare and development.
He will promise that no influence
will be permitted to exert political
control over the school city.
He will call attention to the
alarming increase in tax rate dur
ing the last fifteen years, which has
resulted in doubling assessments.
Early completion of track eleva-
ton will be urged, as well as city
maintenance of parks, Fairgrounds,
golf links, baseball diamonds, ten
mis- courts and swimming beaches.
Wants Hospital Helper
Because of the o~vercrowded con-
dition of the city hospital he will
urge that facilities be enlarged to
care properly for the city sick who
are unable to go elsewhere.
Sullivan will call attention to the
low state of the bonding margin
and will urge economy, that it may
be increased soon to PROVE for
necessary improvements.
On the program with Sullivan will
be Frederick Van Mugs, former
United States district attorney; AL
bert Stump, former nominee for
United States senator; Mayor L. Ert
Slack; and James e. Deery, former
city Judge. Albert Sahm will
preside.
