When the snowy playground was

with SNOWFALL battles, skating, les

Marion and her mother decided to

Prince gave a quick leap, caught
Marion by her coat and pulled her
off the toboggan into the soft snow;
returned like flash and caught her
mothers clothing in like manner and
dragged her free Of the toboggan.
Several times they made the at
temp. but Prince simply would not
be pacified and at last they had to

take their ride. For men and boys
it was alright, but Prince did not

Christmas Pudding Was
the Victim of a Holdun

THERE may be more Christmas
L buildings than there were in
the past, but there are certainly no
bigger ones, writes columnist in
the Manchester Guardian. In 171S
James Austen, inventor Of persian
Pink Powder" planned an adver-
tisement by inviting his customers
to share a gigantic Christmas pud-
ding weighing 1000 pounds. This,
after boiling for IA days at the Red
Lion inn, Southwark, was placed in
a cart to be conveyed, to the &C.
compartment Of a band playing
xsrange instruments, to the Swan
tavern, Fish Street Hill, where the
favored guests were assembled.
The company, however, waited In
vain, for scarcely had the pudding
started on its journey before it was
held up by mob, attacked with
knives and choppers, and distrib-
lied to many not hidden to the
feast.
Ahether huge pudding resulted
fro.a a sporting offer of an old-time
Islington innkeeper to make and
distribute to the poor of the neigh
borhood a Christmas pudding the
weight of any one of his custom
ers. He reckoned without Daniel
Lambert, the heaviest man on rec
ord, who was induced by regular
patron to drop in one morning. Dan
iel turned the scale at 700 pounds,
but the iDnkeeper kept his word and
produced Fndding of equal weight.

is PAYING UP
90 Per Cent Dividend Is
Sent DepoSitorS.

First dividend payment of 40 per
cent to depositors of the defunct
Postal Station State bank was Or
dered today by Judge Clarence E
Weir Of superior court four.
The order was issued on a petition
filed by Elton F.. Leffler, attorney fol-
the receiver, Raymond D. Brown
United Post Offices Corporation
president.
Division with depoSitorS has been
expected for sometime, it having
been announced previously the bank
would pay depositors in full. It is
reported this was made impossible
for the present, when a move to sell
the bank did not mature.
The bank was closed Oct. %, 1890
and a receiver was appointed Nov
II. 1t Is said the bank has ap-
proximately $194,O0O in small notes
outstanding and a $4,000 preferred
claim. with the defunct City Trust
Company, of which the postal bank
was subsidiary.
1t is probable other dividends will
be paid depoSitors later.
Brown announced that checks for
the dividend are being mailed de-
poSitors today and probably all will
be sent out by Monday.

VALPARAISO, Ind, May To-
Testimony by the same chums and
fellow athletes who once helped con-
Wet him of murder was in evidence
today at Virgil Kirkland's second
trial on charges of killing his 1S-
year-old sweetheart, Arlene braves,
at = liquor party.
John Churchill and Fred Phillips,
Kirkland's friends, testified Friday,
as they had at the first trial, that
before Miss braves died, kirkland
told them he was going to beat
her If she did not yield to his ad-
vances.
Defense attorneys contended the
testimony was inadmisslble at this
trial because the state did not need
to prove generalization in its
charges that the girl died of attacks
by Kirkland.
In the first trial Kirkland was
found guilty of killing Miss braves
by hitting her. That charge was
dropped when the second trial be-
gan. Under Indiana law, if Kirk
land is found guilty of murder by
attack or attempt to attack, the
death sentence will be mandatory.
Kirkland glared as the two youths
testified and both appeared uneasy
under his menacing glances.

TRANSPORT PLANE
LANDS AFIRE; II
PASSENGERS SAFE
'WiseCraCking Hostess and
Two Level Headed Pilots
Avert Disaster.
By United Press

By United Press
NEWARK, N. J., May 16.-A
"wisecracking" hostess and two
4evel-headed pilots were credited
today with saving the lives Of seven
teen passengers when the wing of
an Eastern Air Transport plane
burst into flames near Aberdeen,
Md.
The plane, en- route from Rich
mond to New York, was about flf-
teen minutes out of Washington
and flying at an altitude of 1900
feet when Miss Elizabeth Westwood
the hostess, noticed the flames from
the smoking compartment.
Miss WeStwood walked to the
front of the large Curtiss Condor
plane and notified the pilot, A. G.
Kondat.
She then returned to the passen-
ger compartment and joked with
the passengers to avert a panic
while G. j. Mcdonald, co-pilot,
fought the blaze with fire ex-
tinguisher.
assuring the passengers in the
cabin which was fast filling with
smoke, that they would be landed
safely, Kondat drove the large craft
on for five miles, maneuvering it SO
that the flames ate away from the
wing.
Kondat then set the craft down
In small field near Edgewood ar
senal, wheer the FIT. Hoyle fire de-
partment was waiting to extinguish
the flames.
Firemen had noticed smoke pour
ing from the craft and had arrived
at the field by the time Kondat
landed. Part Of the wing structure
was ripped away and the blaze
quickly extinguished.
Eleven passengers boarded a train
for New York. while the seven
others took the next eastern ali
transport for Newark.
j. E. Hoover of the department
Of justice, one of the passengers
highly praised the two lpilots and
the girl hostess, whose GOODNESS. he
said probably averted a major
catastrophe.

their shrill whistles adding to the

Nine Governors were among the
personages and Mayor Jimmy
Walker of New York City was ex-
pected and Mayor Anton Cernak
of Chicago was an early morning
arrival.
Getting back to the race, here
are some of the things you hear
l. A horse with two names will
win because six of the last seven
winners have had double names
(Black Gold, Flying Ebony, Bubbling
Over, Reign Count, Clyde Van Deu-
sen, Gallant Fox. Nine of the
fifteen named to start have two
names, including Twenty Grand.
2. Equipoise will be either the big
gest surprise or the biggest disap-
pointment Of the race. If Equipoise
does not win or make a creditable
showing he will be retired until the
Saratoga Springs, N. Y, meeting.
No one seems to know for sure. just
what Equipoise's condition is.
3. That Earl Sande, who will
broadcast the race, would mean GER
tain victory for either Mate or
Twenty Grand were he in the saddle
today instead Of in a little press
coop on top Of the stands. The con-
sensus is that the crop of jockeys
is poor and that poor riding may
cost somebody the race.
