MINISTER CENTER
 OF PRIMARY FIGHT
South Dakota Senator's lrregu.
 larity Causes Trouble

Pcrc, $. D., April 25 P-Wil- liam Henry McMaster, finishing out his first term as a United State senator from South Dakota, is thc center of a republican party squab-
 ble over his candidacy for renomi- nation at the primary May 6. One wing of the party has grum- bicd that he is not an "administra- tion republican" The opposition to his alignment with the republi- can independents in the senate particularly on the tariff, grew to the point where the dissatisfied home folks brought out George Danforth, Sioux Falls attorney, to oppose McMastcr for the nomina' tion.
 South Dakota thus raises for set clement by popular vote the same issue of republicanism that split the senate into regulars" and ''in- dependents" that led to the Moses coined phrase, sons of wild jack asses,' and that whisked control of the tariff bill from under the
 noses of the Old Guard.
 The administration" republicans have drawn up platform and the two groups are going right afte: each other. MeMaster's voting ill the senate had not pleased some of his constituents for some time. Hi: vote against confirming Charles
 Evans Hughes as chief justice ot
 the United States started the search for an opponent.

Expectations Indians
 Kill German Scientist

Mexico City, April 25 P>-A weird story of superstition and fear that ended in the strangling to death of Edgar kuhlman, Ger man scientist, at Amozac, near Puebla, a week ago, was publish ed by the newspaper Fl Univer- sal today.
 The paper in dispatches from Puebla, said that eight persons believed responsible for the sav- age murder of the scientist had been captured and probably will be executed. ....

 This oil, the Indians said, was to be used on a South American flight by a noted aviator.

DARJEELING COOL
 SUMMER RETREAT
Himalayan Mountain Climbers
 Select Noted Town as Base

Washington, D. C., April 25. - Darjeeling, India, is headquarters just now for the ambitious interna- tional attempt to conquer Kinchin- junga, towering peak of tho Hima- layas that is only a scant thousand feet lower than Mt. Everest. Ordi- narily, it is pointed out in a bulletin from the Washington, D. C. head quarters of the National Geographic Society, the town is headquarters for officials and well-to-do residents of Calcutta and eastern India who seek to conquer the sizzling heat of the Indian summer.
 Summer Retreat For Calcuttans Like Simla, 700 miles farther west, and Srinagar in Kashmir, Oar. jeeling is godsend to perspirina Europeans who must spend the hot period in India" says the bulletin But it is more than a cool retreat; it is a matchless observation post when the clouds permit, for the miehtiest mountain scenery that the world affords. Forty-1ve miles to the northward, across deep chasms and beyond tier after tier of foothills rises kinchinjunga, 2S,156 feet high buttressed by half a dozen peaks from 10000 to 24,00O feet in alti- tude.
 "Darjeelng stands on sort of stage before and above which sweep the amphitheater slopes of Hima- layan heights. The town is perched on and astridc a steep ridge of the Himalayan foothills that rises about 1000 feet from the Bengal plains On the side toward the mountains the the ridge drops away from ap- proximately 5000 feet forming what might, in American terninology, be called the Grand Canyon of the Ranjit;' but whose heavily forested slopes and tropically luxuriant floor earns in India the more poetic name of Vale of Ranjit.'
 Ut is across this Titanic valley and beyond over ranges of foothills flower than that on which Darjeel. ing sits, that one looks to mighty Kinchinjunga. The eye therefore sees a rise of approximately 27,000 feet, a range of altitude to be seen in few if any other places in the world, since most of the highest mountains rise from lofty plateaus.
