The Hamburg House of Burgesses has the largest percentage of women; Is out of 150 members The woman of 40 as a political and industrial world power of the future, as she was an intellectual power in the salons of the past, is the prediction made by some German writers.

PRISON OUTBREAK
 ID EDUCATE YOUTH ss
Father Killed by ConVicts, State
 Sends Boy to College

F Lincoln, Neb.. Aug. 2S (UP)-A IS year old freshman who will enter the University of Nebraska this fall has had his education made possible by a gratitude fund.- provided by the state in appreciation of what the youths father did during a prison break here in 1912.
 The prospective freshman is Roy Blunt, 16, Of near Springfield, Neb,, and his father. also nemed Roy Blunt, was killed as officers finally captured three convicts who had slain three penitentiary officials in their break for freedom from the state prison.
 At the time of the death of his father, young Blunt was not born, but upon his birth several months later, so much sympathy was eX- pressed for the fatherless child and young widow that the next legisla ture appropriated S3,000 to aid in the rearing and educating of the baby
 ss During the years that followed, lie went to school, graduating from the eighth grade at the age of 12. All the calves on the farm his mother said. took turns in carrying him to school, which was some dis tance away He rode a pony dur ing the four years of attending high school and now he is ready to take his engineering course at the University.
 Escape in Blizzard
 The prison break that resulted in the gratitude fund occurred at the state penitentiary March II. 1912. It was not general mutiny but an escape planned by Charles Taylor, known as Shorty Gray, John DoWd and Charles Morley all charged with robberies. In their break for freedom, they killed Warden James Delanunty, Deputy Warden Wagner and Usher E. c. HeIman.
 z Outside a March blzzarr was raging and aided by snow-choked roads, the fleeing convicts eluded the posses that secured the plains for them. After several days their trail was picked up following the robbery of "--0 stores at Murdock, and the fC' ~ day occurred the thrilling at ended in the death of l. and two of the convicts.
 When the convicts came to the farm home of Blunt. his bride of but a few months graciously said she would prepare breakfast for them. But would they wait until she went to the chicken house for fresh eggs. They would. but when she failed to return. the three knew she had gone to the neighbors to give an alarm. Blunt was ordered 10 finish the preparations for the breakfast and then at the point of 9 gun, he was forced to get into a light spring wagon and drive them to wherever they might wish to go.
 One Still in Prison
 A desperate flight began with Blunt driving and posses from Lincoln, Omaha and nearby towns chased the desperate men over 1 miles of horse-killing roads. Lead. ing the chase was a buggy contain. ing Sheriff Chase of Sarpy county Chief of Police John Briggs Of South Omaha and John c. Trouton deputy fire commissioner, and a driver.
 z When the buggy finally drew ur to the wagon a running gun battle was kept up for a mile. Blunt was exposed to the fire but the convicts

SUSPECTS MAY BE
 TROLLEY BANDITS
Two Men Caught in Darien But
 One Makes Escape

No arrests have been made by the police as yet in connection with the holdup of a Plainville- New Britain trolley operated by John Frawley Monday evening at Whites cross ing. Two men arrested in Darien are under suspicion.
 Motorcycle Policeman George Evans of Darien stopped a small coupe yesterday and arrested two men on suspicion. In the machine the officer found 10 pistols and re- volvers, gags, blackjacks, and fake license plates. As he was unbolting the door at the stationhousc, the men escaped, but one was captured later in Stamford and held.
 The Darien officers recalled the trolley holdup at Whites crossing by two men and communicated with the local police through Norwalk, think ing that the man arrested in Stam- ford might have been involved in the local holdup. Constable George Schubert of plainville was notified and an investigation is under way.
 Motorman Frawley stated Monday evening after the holdup that he would be able to recognize one of the holdup men if he saw him again.

R0SENWALD HELPS
 WORKER INVESTORS
Pledges Personal Fortune to
 Assist Sears EmpIoyes

Chicago, Oct. 30 LPl-The Herald and Examiner said today in a copy righted story that Julius Roscnwald, philanthropist and chairman of the board of Sears Roebuck and Com pany, had "pledged without limit his personal fortune to guarantee the stock market accounts of the 10000 employees of his company.
 MT. Rosenwald decided to take this action, the paper said, following the market drop last Thursday. That same evening he conferred with his son, Leasing, who is vice president of the company; General Robert F. Wood, president; w. o. Lewis, trea- surer, and John Higgins another vice president. To Higgins was dele gated the duty of seeing that the employees accounts were protected.
 Higgins immediately looked up the accounts of all employees, not only in Chicago but everywhere the com pany has branches. When he found a employe carrying an account on which, in the present bear market, his margin had grown too narrow for safety, Higgins communicated with the broker handling the ac- count.
 The broker then was asked whether additional collateral was needed to safeguard the account the Herald and Examiner said.
 We simply put up the collateral so that our employees shall be able to weather the storm" Higgins ex- plained.
 "One of the first things I found | out was that a great many employees will have no need for the assistance offered. Some of them, thanks to their thrift and good judgment, are wealthy. The help MT. Rosenwald is l. offering is for those who need it."
 Through Higgins it was learned | for the first time that MT. Roscn- { wald adopted similar plan during | the period of financial depression in . 1921.

 William Davis, president of the company. was ordered to appear be- fore |. s. Commissioner Burke to- day to give bond.
 In fcderal court last July Davis showed q letter from United States Senator Arthur l. Gould of Maine, in which Gould stated he was ob- taining results from a cask of the Colony Vintage company product and expected it 10 turn into wine.
 At the trial testimony was intro duced explaining the process of the juice fcrmcnting into various wines. Federal Judge Davis threw the case out of court on the ground the par ties involved in litigation were en- gagged in executing an unlawful plan Of manufacturing intoxicating liquors"
