WIDOW IS DOUBTED
(. IN YACHT MYSTERY
Mrs. Ceilings to Be GriIIed
RigidIy on Fate of
Rich Husband.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
MINEOLA, N. Y, September IA
District Attorney Blue of Suffolk Coun-
ty announced today he would take Mrs.
Benjamin p. Ceilings aboard the yacht
from which she said her husband was
thrown overheard by two men and
vigorously cross-examine her, because
he does not believe she is telling the
truth.
Blue added that he believed his
county has Jurisdiction in the matter
He was to be accompanied aboard the
yacht Penguin this afternoon by Dis
trict Attorney Elvin N. Edwards Of
Nassau County, who has announced
that he believes Mrs. Ceilings story.
Blood Stains Analysed.
Meanwhile. Edwards announced that
stains found on the Penguin, believed
made by blood. had been sent to D..
Schultz, medical examiner Of Nassau
County who expected to have his re-
port ready some time tomorrow.
It was understood Edwards planned
TO take the Schultz report and other
evidence before a grand jury tomorrow
and obtain John Doe murder warrants
so the power of the Investigators might
be strengthened
Nassau County officers, making an
other search of the Penguin today,
found pair Of oars in the tender. One
had been broken In three places and
the handle was missing. There were
no stains on the oars.
A hundred boatmen and a num-
Der OF small yachts put out from
Oyster Bay and Northport today TO
comb the waters OF Long Island
Sound for Ceilings body.
officials estimated that under nor
NAL conditions, If Ceilings were actu-
ally drowned Wednesday night, the
body would rise to the surface some
time last night or today.
A new clue found today was a rain
coat at Eatons Neck, Suffolk County.
1t was to be shown to Mrs. Ceilings
this afternoon in an effort to learn
if it was worn by one Of her alleged
abductorS.
Blanket Traced to Hotel.
Mineola detectives hurried to Spring
fed, Mass, with a blanket in which
Mrs. Ceilings said she was wrapped by
her abductors when they marooned
her in an open motor boat in Oyster
Bay.
The blanket bore the name Of the
Hotel Charles in Springfield. The man
ager and employees were to be ques-
toned about IL.
Police were checking two new theo-
ries.
One was that an escaped mad
man, with the aid Of an 18-year old
youth, had drowned Ceilings and then
attacked his wife. The other was that
some one who knew Ceilings had en-
gineered his murder and the abduction
of his wife.
The second theory came about with
the discovery Of two names in the hotel
register. A couple had registered at
the Hotel Charles as IF. e. Colling-
bourne and wife" of Stamford.
That night hotel blanket was taken
cut Of the room when the guests
checked out. Such a blanket was
found with Mrs Ceilings.
Detectives determined the writing on
the register was not that Of Ceilings.
Mrs. Ceilings said she had never heard
of the name Collingbourne before.

JURIST GIVES TREATS,
BUT AGE is SECRET

Judge Robert z. Mattingly, who cele-
brated the tenth anniversary Of his
forty-fifth birthday" last year, an
nounced that he was IS years old today.
While the fact that the judges birth
day had arrived was not news to his
friends, attaches of all District courts,
policemen and reporters, as they had
been looking forward with keen an
ticipation to his annual ice cream feast,
speculation was rife as to just how
old he would be.
In directing the dispensation Of the
frozen blocks, the judge did not forget
prisoners who were being held in court
for trial. and many of those who re-
ceived stiff sentences from him thought
better Of the magistrate after par
ticipating in a different way Of his
generosity.
Friends who helped distribute the ice
cream declared the judge gave away
more than ITO gallons.

The crux of the whole problem Of dis
armament seems to lie in this issue.
New international law will have more
or less abolished the principle of neu-

likely, at this session of the League
Assembly.
What will be the American attitude
to this? Secretary of State Henry L.
Stimson's London proposal Of q consul

United States, with q sincere desire to

In New York

New York.-The intersection Of Fifth Avenue and Forty-second has long had the reputation Of being the nations most active corner. The. most recent figures to arrive from the statistic hounds announce that almost 500,000 persons cross this intersection daily.
 As the result of this fiuctuant throng, a tobacco store on one cor ner does the largest retail business in the world. The shops experts have discovered that the largest sales are made when the red tral- fic lights flash their. stop" signal. The vast percentage of sales are cigarets.
 And 40 per cent of the cigaret buyers are women. Salesmen are trained to be particularly quick in matters of barter and change, since the average customer is found to be restless creature who makes his purchase between lights and is annoyed if delayed. And since the statisticians seem to have had a field day.

BIRDS FEET.

BIHDS' FEET.
 Some persons who wish to make sport of their own handwriting call it "hen-scratching." Usually they are too modest, but now and then the idea seems not far wrong.
 A hen would find 1t hard to write anywhere except in the sand. What hens and birds of other kinds want to do is to obtain food, avoid their enemies, and rear their young.
 Birds differ in the number of their toes, and the shape of their feet. The ostrich, famed running bird of Africa, has only two toes to each foot. What the ostrich's toes lack in number, they make up for in size. An ostrich can give a swift kick. have never been on the receiving end of such a kick, but I hear that 1t compares very we'll with the kick of mule. The ostrich has relatives on other continents, in South America the rhea and in Australia the emu, but those birds have feet with three toes apiece.
 The three-toed woodpecker like wise has three toes to each foot. put IIO6t hAhuo oL NH aS eAAO AOaA toed. Do you know how many toes a robin has? Next time you see one, try to count the toes. The apteryx, a strange New Zea- land bird which cannot fly. has feet with four toes but one toe is so short as to be hardly more than a spur. The apteryx is about the same size as barnyard hen. The toes of woodpeckers are so arranged as to make 1t possible for the birds to grip the trunks of trees
 Many kinds of birds have webbed feet. These include ducks, geese, swans, pengiums and pelicans. The webs make 1t possible for such birds to swim.
 Almost every kind of bird has ''scales' on. it feet. This is taken to be one proof that birds are dis tant-- very distant relatives ot scale-covered lizards.
