 "As 1 approached him after din- ner to tell him that coffee and cigars would be served on the floor above and to suggest his making the move, he asked me to get some cigarettes and a match. 1 got them from the band leader. the others having been all taken upstairs, and when 1 gave them to the president, he handed one to the baroness, and. lighting a match. applied 1t to the debased weed himself. No sooner had she Baroness Rosen) lighted one, than Baroness Hengelmuller drew out from her pocket q gold case and lighted one herself; and so it started and nearly every European woman in the room was smoking in i've minutes. .Alice Longworth stole into the green room, where she had a few puffs."
 Unfortunately, the major dropped the subject there, and records are vague concerning the growth of fem iEine addition to what he called "the debased weed"
 The mention of the alacrity with WHICH EuTOpSdh WOucu o1nOhc1 uOW ever, recalls the recent adventures of Queen Mary of England. The w. c. T. U. of Rockford, Ill, it will be re- called, recently rebuked the queen for her private use of cigarettes and demanded an answer. To date none has been received. Smoking is not permitted at the royal banquets in Buckingham Palace, because Queen Mary feels Victorian standards should be maintained in public. It is admitted, however, that she and other feminine members of the royal household use cigarettes in private, although the queen acquired the ha- bit only in recent years. She prefers a medium-priced cigarette of Vir- ginia tobacco.
 The present rule at the White House is that women may smoke wherever men do, at dinners, and other functions, with the exception of receptions. Much smoke, propel- led from feminine lips, has flowed under the ceiling of the east room since that night when Major Butt yawned and, before tumbling into bet,, added this line:
 T am glad to say that the Amer ican women did not indulge tonight. not even the American wives of European diplomats"

 The jail is about a block and half from the courthouse here. A considerable crowd had gathered tn front of the courthouse early this morning. after reports that the ne- gro was to be arraigned today.
 Sheriff English took the negro from the jail in an automobile and prove down a side street to a rear entrance to the courthouse.
 Watchers for the mob in front of the courthouse spread the word the negro was coming. The leaders rushed the sheriff as he drove up to the rear entrance.
 They overpowered the officer by sheer physical force and spirited the negro away. ,.

 The cast includes Claudia Dell. Louise Closer Hale, Lloyd Hughes, Eddie Phillips. Lew Harvey. Frank lin Battle, and John Harron.
 Alan Crosland did splendid work in the direction of this picture.

 Critical Condition
(Continued from Page 1.)

Early this afternoon it was stated that the operation on Superintend- ent Bradley, which had been post poned from time to time since he was taken critically i'll a little over two weeks ago, would undoubtedly be performed before nightfall.
 Due to this sudden change in the condition of Superintendent Brad ley, considerable concern regarding his condition was heard to-day throughout the City Hall and Wat erbury in general.
 Late last night Superintendent Bradley began to suffer greatly and his attending physicians were imme- diately called in. After studying the situation they agreed that the need of an operation immediately was ap- parent. Therefore, the call was sent into New Haven for Dr Blumer and he arrived in the city shortly after 2 o'clock this afternoon. The opera ton to be performed on Superin Y. tendent Bradley is a decidedly tech- nical one.

Body manufac- turers, and makers of countless products used by the motor industry were expected to have to speed up production to keep pace with the demands of the car builders.
 Street railway employees, laid of because of slack business. went to work again, and caterers. whose trade depends on the auto workers, whom they feed at the plants, called back scores of employees.

former Chinese minister to Wash

new government would be formed
before the end of the week. He ex-
pected Eugene Chen, Cantonese
leader, to return here from Shang-

Meanwhile the essential services of

SO far this year the number of
holdups, as compared with the same
period last year, has decreased from
800 to 628. Sixty per cent of the
1881 holdups have been solved and
the criminals punished.
Captain Ed Helm and Lieutenant
Ralph Dean express the opinion
the holdup racket no longer is
worth the time, risk or possibility
of future in the big house.
DUT to those who have been
- nabbed on holdup charges, goes
the credit for telling the real story
of the outlaw depression.
"The one 1 pulled sure wasn't
worth the risk" Roy Skaggs. of
Hayworth, Ill, said today.
He is awaiting grand jury action
at the county jail. He was captured
shortly after he is alleged to have
robbed a filling station attendant in
Bridgeport ten days ago.
There weren't any women in my
case-just bad breaks" he added.

going to take the dough and beat it
for Hot Springs and take some
treatments.
But how far am going to get
on my share of S. with other guys
to split the take? I'm here already.
The whole mess wasn't worth the
chance"
So police and bandits apparently
agree at last.
RobberieS aren't worth while in
these days of depression.
