CANNON'S ACCOUNT
HELD SPECULATIVE.
Witness Says Bishop Bought
Stocks Through Part
Payment Plan.
BY the Associated Press.

/ OS bne hSSOClaJe0 ffeSS.
NEW YORK, June 26.-The trad
ing account of Bishop James Cannon,
jr.. of the Methodist Episcopal Church
South was described as speculative in
testimony on record today in the bank
ruptcy hearing of Kable Il Co.
c. w. Kable, who lent his name to the
brokerage concern while he did clerical
work for $35 week, was examined at
length yesterday concerning the reia-
tions of the Southern churchman with
the firm. He was shown photostatic
copies of ledger sheets bearing entries
of the bishops deals.
Don't you see from that account that
the stocks were not held, and that 1t
was really speculative account?" he
was asked. Yes" replied FZable.
Harry L. Goldhurst vino employed
Kable, testified Monday that Bishop
Cannon bought stocks through his firm
on part-payment plan. The bishop re-
Gently said in Washington that his
dealings with the company had been
part-payment stock purchases for in
veStment.
Kable said Goldhurst had full charge
Of Bishop Cannon's account, and that
he was nothing more than an office boy
to the bishop.
He said the bishop kept in close
touch with the stock market, and once
when he made a trip to South America
left with Goldhurst list of places
where he could be reached.
Both Kable and Goldhurst are under
Federal indictment for fraudulent use
of the mails as the result of a raid on
their company as bucket shop
shortly after petition in bankruptcy
was filed.
Although there was a partnership
agreement, Kable said, 1t never was en-
forced, and he only signed checks in
blank for Goldhurst.

Friends and relatives are continu-

medicine and advising those who are
in poor health to begin using 1t at
once. Take the case of Mrs. Hoke,
1910 5th Street NE, who has lived
in Washington for the past 20 years,
she says: MY daughter-in-law ad-
vised me to try the Herb Extract,

how it helped her, said, We'll, I
will try one bottle but / have suf-
fered so long that I doubt If 1t will
help me very much The first bottle
proved to me that what she said was
true and now after taking three
bottles am willing to admit that
do not think 1t has an equal. Why,
for months and months I was in
so much misery I could not rest day
or night, my stomach seemed TO be
full of gas, felt sore and was con-
tinually belching up sour bile.
there was a steady pain in my left
side just below the ribs, had severe
attacks of dizziness, spots seemed to
float before my eyes, head hurt all
not rest properly at night and would
get up each morning with bad
taste in my mouth, tongue was al
ways coated and simply felt miser-
able. It was wonderful the way this
medicine regulated the entire diges-
tive system and I can hardly de-
scribe the wonderful improvement in
my health, stomach no longer causes
me any trouble, every pain is gone,
nerves are steady, and I no longer
have that disagreeable taste when l

ment today. Archbishop Ruiz apos-
tolic delegate, in an accompanying
statement, said Is Mexico City churches
would be ready for the opening services
the last of this week, with the first
masses probable Saturday.

in every case the archbishop would
designate the priests in whose hands
the church was to be placed. Then
the priest, accompanied by 10 parish
oners, will go to the church and inter-
view the present custodians committee,
who will hand over their inventory to
the priest and Pensioners.
Plans for Restoration Outlined.
If the inventory shows everything in
order the parishoners will notify the
municipal authorities of their readiness
to accept the property and the priest
will produce his birth certificate. show
ing him Mexican born in compliance
with the law. The priest will then be
registered by the municipal authorities,

Peplums on New Evening Frocks
By MARY MARSHALL.

cause it Is ever so much easier TO wear.
and though it isn't actually long
enough to to camoufage broad hips, it
ct least doesn't overemphaSize them the
| way the tuck-in blouse arrangement
does.
A peplum, as the word is used these
days, depends on its position. 1t is in
reality q short fiounce-and becomes a
peplum only when it is placed in the
region Of the waist or hip line. 1t may,
as matter of fact, be attached to the
bodice directly or it may be attached
! to the skirt.
Among French dressmakers the name
of Molyneux as well as that of Lelong
has been associated with the peplum
style. Molyneux's new peplum jumper
frock is wearable and decidedly smart.
It is made with separate skirt. con-
sisting of a fairly deep yoke, made fat
and a narrowly pleated skirt. The
blouse, which is straight but Iairiy
snugly fitted, is belted slightly below
the normal waist and then continues in
the ruise of a short flared peplum.
The Intriguing thing about the costume
is that the peplum is so short that an
inch or so of the fiat skirt yoke ap-
pears below it.
said that these little peplums do
not overemphasize hip breadth. They
really do not, but like so many fashions
nowadays they are designed for the
fairly straight figure: What q comfort
it would be to be able to announce a
new fashion that really required a
plump Silhouette to display it to ad-
vantage.

or giving a touch of distinction to a
new one you may find the little acces-
sorry collars and cuffs described in TINS

they are quite simple to make and

WINTERTIME
BY d. o. PEATTM.

One passes even the pleasantest pic
lures on the walls without looking at
them If one has lived in the room q
great many years. Perhaps, for SINH
lar reason, ! pass q little florist shop
every few days without noticing 1t
much, though 1t always deserves my no.
tice. Possibly the conventional roses and
carnations and cyclamens are a trife
too familiar to me now.
But one day not long ago my eye
was caught by flash Of color. a tangled
glory Of shape, not in the least familiar,
and, though was both cold and in a
hurry, I whirled back to gaze in the
window, just as one has to stop and
look when a band strikes UP in street.
What 7 saw there was a windowful of
acacia blossoms, which, while not by
any means unknown in Washington
flower shops, is an unusual flower In our
region. And suddenly, at the mere
sight Of them, was carried back by
those blossoms to the tropics, where I
first inhaled the enchanting odor Of
the Farnesian acacia, the most magical
scent in all the world.
Though love our part Of the world,
our birds and flowers best, there is no
denying the delight of the things be-
tween Capricorn and Cancer. Because
most of us know the tropics as they
manufacture them in Hollywood or on
Broadway, we think of them as haunted
by boa constructors, man-eating plants
and brown skinned maidens.
But to me the charm of the tropics
Is captured in one spray OF acacia
light as the pollen it bears, gold as the
sun that brought it into bloom and
fragrant like nothing on earth except
its own self.
It is common to call the acacia a
mimosa, though the mimosa is really
the little sensitive plant Of the tropics,
while acacias are trees and shrubs.
Mimosa or acacia, however, they smell
as sweet by any name, and I have
always admired the Masons for taking
the acacia as the symbol of Masonry,
though why this is SO only the Masons
know.
