JAP PANESE POLICE
 OCCUPY F0RM0SA
Reports Of BeheadinS of School
 Children UnCOnhrIned

Tokyo, Oct. % LP-A Japanese police expedition occupied the vil- lage of Musha, central Formosa, at 8 a. m., today after engaging re- volting savages at Bikei, meaning Beautiful Valley" on the western edge of the Musha district yesterday, an official report to the Tokyo war office said.
 Definite news concerning Japanese and other peaceful residents of the disturbed area was lacking.
 Dispatches, however, said 31 Jap anese refugees had reached the safety zone, but that the fate of about 240 others was unknown.
 Japanese newspapers printed lurid accounts of the savage uprising, in cluding the beheading of Japanese school children. These reports of dccapitations were uncontirmed.
 Motive Unknown
 Japanese authorities asserted the motive for the revolt was unknown. Tokyo newspapers. however, offered several possible explanations, the most interesting of which concern ed the great electric power project at Lake Jitsugetsutan, for which the semi official Formosa Electric Pow CT company is said to be negotiating with the J. P. Morgan company of New York for a loan of 45,000,000 yen (about $27,5O0,O0O The project contemplate construc- ton of a power dam across the out let of Lake Jitsugetsutan, which translated means Sun and Moon lake" The lake also is known as Candidius. It lies 20 miles south west of Musha.
 Would Flood Area Construction of the proposed dam reportcdly would flood a large area belonging 10 the savages. Other alleged causes of the re- volt were given as oppressive super vision by Japanese police and failure to pay the savages for labor done on public works. Officials partially or wholly denied these explanations. About 1,500 savages, who were head-hunters until Japanese subju- gation, took the warpath yesterday. They attacked Musha village kill ing, unconfirmed reports said. 190 Japanese and 70 peaceable Formo- sans. They destroyed the police sta ton at Musha, presumably killing the defenders, and captured 100 rifles.
 They were said to be advancing on other villages.

 Wilson Keeps 'em Seated
 Attorney David A. Wilson, former Hartford postmaster and democatic nominee for attorney general had a difficult task to perform at the Senior high school rally last night. After the audience had listened to three speakers who covered all the issues of the campaign, Attorney Wilson was charged with the re- sponsibiltiy of holding them in their seats until the arrival of Dean Cross, The fact that only a few left during his talk indicated that he filled the bill ill acceptable fashion, and any experienced campaigner knows thar one of the most difficult things to do is 10 talk against time on the tail end of q lengthy program.

Another National Pee-wee Golf !.
 Tourney Opened In Middle West

Chicago, Oct 29 (UP)-"Pee-wee" golf today made its bid for recogni- tion as q major sport with the open inI of the first national open mini ature golf tournament at Chicago stadium.
 The public generally classified the tourney as comedy entertainment, along with turtle derbies and talk ing marathons, but the promoters and contestants professed to regard the affair with all the seriousness which the staid old |. s. c. A. at taches to its national tournaments.
 Prizes Total S1O,O0O
 A $l0,000 prize list. with q S5,000 miniature golf course as the major award, gave the contestants justiti- cation for their attitude. Chick Evans, Jr., former national amateur and open golf champion, expressed the sentiments of the contestants with the explanation that no mat ter how much humor one finds in the efforts Of pigmy golf devotees to shove the little ball through hollow logs and other trick hazards $10,- 000 'ain't no hay in any language"
 The promoters had less excuse to keep straight faces in classifying the tournament as one of the years outstanding sporting cvents," but o. fered an alibi by pointing out that miniature golf, which began a few years ago as toy, has now reached the status of a $l25, 100000 indus try"
 Seemingly the tourney sponsors see little comedy in pee-wee golf At any rate they have announced the engagement of several outstanding Comedians Ito furnish comedy and amusement during the tournament' -a precaution which rivals carrying q ham sandwich to q banquet.
 Many Experts Entered
 Miniature golf course champions of 30 states and Canada are entered in the tournament. Medal play will continue until Sunday. with GA low scorers qualifying for match play. The 7e-holc championship final will be played Sunday night, after which the winner will be allowed to pack up his newly won course for addi- tional play at home.

 Chicago, Oct. % [P)-Thc Illinois senatorial race, q battle of person. alities that has engrossed the coun- try, hears the November ballot ing, attuned to new pitch of in terest over eleventh hour develop ments in the struggle for Cook county votes.
 William Hale Thompson. rcpub- lican mayor Of Chicago, with the political showmanship for which he is noted, set new forces in motion by engaging in a duel with Con- gresswoman Ruth Hanna McCo~- mick, republican candidate for the senate.
 He has announced his support of James Hamilton Lewis, democratic senatorial nominee; the Cook county republican organization did not fol- low his lead and the repercussions of , those moves have spurred public interest anew in a. campaign that has set many political precedcnts.
 The dramatic and unexpected en- , trance of Big Bill' came after Lewis and Mrs.. Lottie Holman O'Neill, independent, had charged Mrs. Mccormick with his support The Tammany of Illinois is the way Mrs. O'Neill characterized the Thompson and Cook county repub- lican organization. Lewis inveighel against the "city hall crowd"
 Now that Thompson has publicly said he would march with Lewis electionward. the question for warm speculation IS what way his belatcd stand will weigh the scales.
 Mrs. Mccormick took the oppor- tunity to assert she never had been r supported by the Chicago mayor and cited his latest move as proof of her statements.
 Interest in senate Fight
 Illinois will elect it's full con- < gressional delegation, vote upon , three measures aimed at prohibition 2 repeal. and consider two constitution al amendments. one 10 change the 1. revenue article so that the legisla- ture will have a virtually free hand 2 in enacting taxation, and the other 10 permit women to serve on JUriGs. $ But it is the senatorial fight that has stirred interest unparalleled in a , by-election year. It is unique.

Mayor Thompson's Duel With Ruth Hanna Me- COrmick Creates Stir in Cook County.

New York, Oct. 29 (UP)-Nebras- ka, which has been styled the in- surgent state" is the scene of q spirited fight this year against Sena- tor George w. Norris, nominally re- publican but who supported Alfre l E Smith for president in 1928 an', has been anything but q supporter or Hoover policies in the senate.
 Gilbert M. Hitchcock, publisher and long a leader in democratic politics, is his opponent. Hitchcock has campaigned the state openly bidding for republican support. Joining with the democrats to win votes for Hitchcock are elements of republicans who hope to punish Norris for his lack of party regu- larity.
 Those who have stood witt Nor ris in numerous senate battles, have come to his suppoirt, notably Sena- tor William E. Borah of Idaho who ina statement last week said the title of ''The Great Commoner" so lcng carried by the late William Jennings Bryan, now rightly tclongs to Norris.
 AS an indication of the fight waged against Norris, a grocer, urged to run as an independent His name was not placed on tho primary ballot, however. because the court ruled the petition was received too late. The Nye senate investSat- ing committee has held several meetings in Nebraska in charges which grew up around the candidacy O. Grocer Norris.
 Accuses Power Trust
 Norris has made charges that the "poWer trust" and other large inter- ests which he has fought for many years, are spending huge sums to defeat him.
 Hitchcock, tall. ristocratic looking man, is conducting d dign'- fled though active campaign He tells his hearers that he started lif2 as 8 republican but years ago be . came convinced that a protective tariff was bad for the agricultural west.
 AS a result of Hitchcock's promise not to vote for repeal of prohibit ticn and Norris support of smith, dry forces have divided their sup port between the two.
 In addition to the senatorship con- test, there is one in progress for tn" sovernorship in which Arthur J Weaver, republican, is opposing Charles w. Bryan, democrat, for mer governor and brother of the late William Jennings Bryan,
 Weaver is advocating a roa ] building program to embody gravel reads from farm to market on q pay as you go" plan.
 Bryan is advocating paved roads to be financed through bond issues
 Democratic State Committeeman A. F. Mullen has made a statemen' claiming the democrats will win five O. the states six seats in congress. They now have two. Less biased observers, however, say the republi- cans have an excellent chance of re taining two of the four seats they new hold and most of them believe f. more likely that they will elect q minimum of three congressman, loa- ing not more than one seat in Nebraska.

What do you mean?"
"It is perfectly obvious now that

"Oh!"
Judith stared, not believing that
she had heard the words right. A
glance at Knights face told her
there was no mistake.
"Oh!" The little cry escaped
from her lips again. She had been
very whitefaced when she entered
the room. Now a deep rose flush
crept into the girls cheeks.

There was a pause. Under the
dark lashes her blue eyes sought

She brushed one hand to her eye

Knight would not notice. He gave
