CHURCH is BOMBED
AFTER RADIO TALKS
Los Angeles Pastor Long Ac-

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, october 27.-Rev
Robert P. Shuler, broadcasting pastor
and his Trinity Methodist Church
South, were in public attention again
today as police investigated the myster-
ious bombing of the downtown church
building early Sunday morning.
Only slight damage was caused by
the bomb and police believed the blast
was set off as prank or by some crank
who wished to frighten worshipperS
from the church.
Plate Glass Windows Broken.
Several plate glass windows in the
building and in nearby structures were
broken. Police estimated the damage
at $3.50. Explosives experts said the
bomb apparently was black powder
affair, similar to those used in aerial
fireworks displays, and apparently had
been hurled from moving automobile.
Shuler said he believed the blast was
intended to scare members Of his con-
gregation and keep them from church
rather than to damage the building
or radio Station KGEF, over which he
broadcasts.
On January IA, 1928. q dynamite

ner of the church shattered two win
dows and wrecked q small automobile
Pastor Active in Politics.

cred over the church radio, frequently

week the Federal Radio Commission

whether it shall be permitted to operate
permanently.

court on several occasions and twice
was convicted, once paying q SIS flne

LONDON, October 27.-An extraordi-
nary tale of an Egyptian mummified
hawk that drips blood" during war
time was told yesterday by Lord Robert
Baden-Powell, chief Scout.
Lord Baden-Powell says he Is not SUI
psrstitious enough to believe the hawk
really forecasts the coming of war, but
thinks its prophetic powers are IAN
amazing coincidence"
Asked to amplify a brief reference
he made to the bird at a recent ban
quet. he said:
THE bird. which is in a mummitied
state, was discovered in 1887 by friend
of mine during excavation work in
Egypt. BY comparing it with other
things discovered at the same time, he
concluded that the bird was at least
1000 years old.
Saw It at Museum.
"I saw the thing for the first time
the other day at friends private mu-
scum. It Is in q wonderful state of
preservation, and, although the eyes are
gone, one can still clearly see the beak
and the features.

MUJNMIFIED BIRD DRIPS BLOOD"

Egyptian Specimen So Acted Before Two
Outbreaks, Sir Robert Baden-Powell
Relates.

ION the shelf where the bird stands
noticed a dry brown stain: and when
questioned my friend about 1t, he told
me that about a month before the out
break of the Boer War the hawk be-
came damp and gently oosed bubbles
of this stuff
All through the campaign this
sweating continued. until about a
month before the war ended. when, as
suddenly and mysteriously as it had be-
gun, the dripping ceased.
But exactly a month before the out
break of the great war the bubbles
again appeared, and the amazing fact
is that they again stopped just month
before the armistice.
Cannot Account for It.
How can one account for it? Is
the liquid some preservative used in
the mummifying process which is at
fected by the weather
"A point which seems rather to up
set this theory is that there surely
must have been weather conditions
when the bird was dry similar to those
when it was wet. And again, how is
one to explain that on each occasion
