terday in pursuance of his industrial
inspection tour of southeastern France,
had a shock when he discovered large

commerce a little too far and an

exhibition at any price. The manage

secluded from the other diners by
screens, plants and palms.
In the course of the dinner the men,

DEFENSE HOPEFUL
IN INDIANS TRIAL
Woman's Counsel Expects
Today's Testimony viii Re-
flute Charge of Murder.
BY the Associated Press.

BUFFALO, N. Y, March 31.-Confi-
dent that single day would suffice to
refute the charge of murder lodged
against the Indian, Lila Emerson, her
counsel marShaled a dozen witnesses
for the opening of court today.
The two attorneys, assigned by the
court, were prepared to show before to-
days session ended that the State erred
in charging Lila conspired to murder
Clotilde Marchand so she could realize
her ambition to marry the woman's
husband, Henry Marchand, sculptor of
Indian figures.
They believed they could show that
if any one wrote letters over a fictitious
signature telling Lila's tribeswoman,
credulous old Nancy Bowen, that Clo-
tide Marchand was a witch and as
such should be killed, 1t was not Lila.
They also we're ready to prove that the
35-year-old consumptive Indian woman
did not know the withered old Nancy
was going to Buffalo from her home, on
the Cattaraugus Indian Reservation, on
March 6 to beat and chloroform the
artists wife.

PASTORS SAY LEGION
 PRAYER 'AB0M|NABLE'
Find Spiritual Appeals "Christless" and "Ad-
 dressed to Idols"

Milwaukee. Wis, Sept, r P)- Two hundred pastors of the Wiscon- sin and Missouri synods of the Evan gelical Lutheran churches today were on record as condemning the prayers of the American Legion as addressed to idols" and "abomi- nable to the sight of a Christian"
 Meeting in conference here, the pastors failed to take action regard ing Rev. John Henning, pastor of the Iron Ridge, Wis, church, whose custer was asked by his board of directors because he refused to ad- init several Legionnaires to com munion. Rev. Henning said he con- sidered the American Legion "anti- Christ since it did not officially re- cognize Christ in the prayers of the organization
 The pastors approved a statement that prayers of the American Le- zion ritual are Christless, are ad- dressed to idols and are abominable to the sight of a Christian"
 While the meeting was called, delegates said previously, to deter mine if Legionnaires should be de- nied church membership, the con- vention failed to take action for or against the proposal.

SMOKING FORBIDDEN AT CENTRAL SCHOOL Principal Issues Warning to Both Boy and Girl
 Pupils

Pupils in the Central Junior High school, including boys and girls, were asked today to refrain from smoking on the school grounds and in the school basement in notices sent about the school by Principal William c. French.
 Mir. French asked the pupils to cooperate with the school authori- ties by not smoking while going to and from school. The principal eX- plained that the school officials feel they have an interest similar to that of parents in the welfare of the chil- dren and they feel they should be concerned about the conduct of the children while under school care.
 In taking this step Mir. French ex- according to school board regula- tions which require the faculties of schools to supervise the conduct of children while they are in the school building. He said that all though the modern tendency is to make some allowances, regulations forbidding practices should be en- forced.
 It is Mir. French's opinion that the boys are no worse than they were 20 years ago and that the school is in very healthy condition from g department standpoint. As in the Senior High school and other places the adoption of the smoking habit by women has made it necessary tc include the fair sex in smoking reg. ulations at the school.

Wesleyan Head Says Modi- fication Probably
 Solution

Middletown, Sept 17 R)-Presi- dent James L. McCopaughy, in ad- dressing Wesleyan University stu dents at the opening of the tooth college year today, spoke of the need of enlarging "our horizons and definitions" and said that if present laws and enforcement methods are intellectual, he was willing to face the necessity of modifying our pro- hibition statutes.
 Personally I think the curbing of liquor an undoubted social ad- vance," he said. "and I believe that colleges are better off under prohi- bition than they were before. If, however, in certain cities and states the present laws and methods are proving intellectual and are causing other evils, I for one, am willing to revise my definitions and frankly face the necessity of modification of the law. I urge upon you, as the voters of the immediate future. upon whom the responsibility for the solution of this great question will shortly rest, to be open-minded enough to recognize any possible failures and likewise to be willing Continued on Page Two)

BOLT OF LIGHTNING SKIPS ALONG FENCE UprOOts Posts and Exca- yates Stone Near Chil-
 dren's Home

With the exception of damage caused by one freak bolt of light ming, no loss was reported follow ing an electric storm which broke about 9 o'clock last night. Indica- tions of a heavy storm to the north of the city were manifest, and con- siderable flickering of lights was noticed.
 There was no damage to lights in New Britain, although a bolt of lightning in Plainville put the lights out of order for less than minute.
 No damage was reported by the telephone company.
 A bolt struck a wooden fence within a few feet of the Children's home. The fence enclosed an area of about 500 square feet and con sisted of wooden posts strung to- gether with wire. Lightning struck the wire and followed all around the fence, tearing posts out of the ground and in several cases splin- tering the wood. A large stone was lifted out of the ground near one of the posts.

ROGERS ALWAYS CAUTIOUS
Coveted Gubernatorial Post From His Childhood Days, His Close Friends ReIate-ROse Step By Step in Political Career.

New Haven, Sept. r UP)-Con- necticut's gubernatorial race has be- come a contest between two Con nccticut Yankees"-both of rural upbringing and both over 60 years of age.
 Ernest F. Rogers. who was nom- mated by the republican state con- yentlon at Hartford yesterday, was horn on farm at Waterford, New London county, 63 years ago. Like Wilbur L. Cross, his 6S-year-old democratic opponent, he is a de- scendant of English stock which settled in Connecticut 300 years ago and gained a precarious livelihood on farms between skirmishes with the Pequot Indians.
 In appearance also the candidates are not unlike. Both are tall, white haired and of dignified demeahor. With these points the resemblance ends, for while Rogers was a poor boy and peddled milk to help his family, Cross was the son of a Mansfield "country gentleman and worked in a general store only be- cause he enjoyed it's responsibilities
