The body Of q man washed aGhore

on the original pretense OF having
to take & wounded man across the
sound to Connecticut.
After her husband had been
thrown overheard. bound BY his
ankles and wrists, the wounded man
m~ystcriously disappeared from the
pirates conversation, Mrs. Ceilings
said.
A preliminary examination indi-
Gated that the body found today had
been In the water about three
weeks. It was three weeks ago to-
morrow night that the mysterious

Nocturnal Grow
OF Paris Rooster
ArOuses Savant
Member of Academy Of
Sciences Starts Hen
House Investigation.

PARIS, September Especially If
cause so much trouble, probably he
would have turned over on his side
and pounded his car few hours long
er till morning. AS 1t was, he certain-
ly did crow, loud and Justify. and it
was certainly midnight-even in Mont
parnasse-and today the crow Of the
cock in the middle of the night has
the entire Academy of Sciences by the
ears.
Fl Bigourdan, member Of the Acade-
my. heard the cock crow, and heard
it so distinctly he woke up his wife
even scientists like corroboration-and
she heard it. They both went to the
window, threw aside the curtain, lis
tened again, counted the stars, and
there It was once more!
NJ. Bigourdan was so upset he could
hardly wait for the next meeting of the
academy under the cupola Of the an
cient institute When it did meet he
was right on time and he put on the
whole show over again.
It is true, he said, it was a moon
light highland such a moonlight
night, ma foi!-but had the moon ever
before been mistaken for the sun by
even a Montparnasse rooster? No one
present could say it had.
Grave consideration was then given
to historical cases wherein ROSTERS had
or had not been seriously mistaken by
the sudden effect of electric lights, the
introduction Of darkness into coop at
noon and the introduction at midnight
of bright f1oodlights, with this strange
effect on the male head of the chicken
family.
But there were no incandescent lamps
around, M Bigour6an said. for he went
the next morning to where the cc~:
and hens were kept, and he checked tie
phenomenon with his clock and his
notebooks and his wife, and verified his
findings.
Almost every newspaper in Paris COM
mented seriously on the unusual hap
pening. The Gallo cock has crowed
in Paris for several generations, but
no one had ever heard the "cocorico"
as a nocturne.

Ex-king Will
Turn Author

PARIS. Sept. 5. U.P)-With moth
ing to do but find a job to keep
him busy, ex-King Alphonso OF
Spain advised close friends recently
that he had decided to publish a
book. The book will not be a de-
Tense of the Spanish monarchy nor
an explanation of his abdication,
but will be devoted entirely to prov
ing that Alphonso was friendly TO
France in the World War.
AlphonSo was surprised, since
coming here in exile, to learn that
his war time position is regretted
by many French.
In his book, the King intends to
show what he did to prove his SYM
pathy for France, despite the pro-
German attitude of many of the
Spanish political leaders during the
war and the governments official
neutrality.
His writings will show how he
spent from his personal fortune to
obtain the repatriation of French
prisoners and how he paid for spe-
cial care for French wounded in
German prison camps. One of the
French prisoners, whose return
King Alphonso obtained, was
Maurice Chevalier, the moving pic
ture star.

Art Development
Seen As Help To
Universal Peace

FOND DU LAC, Wis, Sept. 5.
U.P)-Development of the arts in
stead of ornaments would solve
many Of the world problems, in the
opinion of Joe Woo, Canton, China,
philosopher and world traveller.
"Chinese people form the Oldest
nation in the world, yet they are
considered the weakest" Woo de-
Jared. The reason for this is that
they have been developing their
arts and consider culture above
ornaments. If other nations would
follow the example set by the
Chinese there would be no more
wars, because they would not have
the ornaments to conduct them.
My philosophy is. Let nature
follow its course Everything origi-
mates from nothing and returns to
nothing. Men are born to die-why
spend money and time deyising
methods of slaughtering them?"
Woo is a graduate of the Uni
v5rsity of Southern California and
has delivered lectures in the United
States for the past six years.

MOUNTED COP
MIGHT DO FOR
RODE0 RIDER

CHICAGO, Sept. 5. UP)-William
Kent, a mounted policeman, was
hailed today by several hundred
persons who witnessed his perform
ance as the best 'rodeo actor who
ever appeared in Chicago"
Kent was sitting astride his horse
near State street when he heard
shouts and saw a man running.
The man, Lou Foreman, 81, of New
York, lodged behind an automobile.
The policeman applied the spurs
and his horse raced toward the
auto. Then came the trick that
made the crowds gasp. Kent bent
low over his hrose's neck as the
animal left the pavement.
The horse cleared the hood of
the automobile gracefully in q jump
that made the crowds cheer. Kent,
however, proved as expert per-
former as the horse, for just as the
horse landed, the officer reached
down, grasped Foreman by the COL
lar. and held him securely until the
horse stopped.
Foreman, who travels about SELL
ing watches, was charged with
lifting" a sweater. Department
store clerks who said they saw MIN
steal the sweater spread the alarm
which sent Kent and his horse into
action.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 5. U.P)-
Fifty years from now there may be
$4,000 small-town bands practicing
every night from Maine to Califor-
mia. while in the cities bands as
famous as those Of Rome and Paris
will flourish under great conduc-
tors and rich endoWments, Walter
Damrosch, famed New York Phil
harmonic leader, predicts.
Here for the summer, Damrosch
has been greeted with enthusiasm.
His name, as conductor of radio
concerts, during the past five years,
which have reached 100000 AM
orleans weekly, is perhaps one of
the best known to the public
Heart of Americans
Through my work over the air
! feel that have come nearer TO the
heart of the American people than
perhaps any other conductor, u
Damrosch said. THE radio is in
the homes Of rich and poor alike
with a majority in the middle-class
homes.
America is learning to express
herself in the language of music"
ne declared. II know. have
visited many places. I have
watched the wonderful response to
our nationally broadcast programs
on which have placed the best in
music"
From this growing appreciation
for the best will develop the ability
to express herself musically. DAM
rosch says of America. First will
come songs of the people. A nation
will sing; then a genius, perhaps q
school of musicians will seize OF
the wealth Of common property, and
develop it into great operas, sym
phonies, classics lieder.
Prophecies CoIored

old leader said. But / have geer

FENCE AROUND
POWERS GARAGE
IS DESTROYED

CLARKSBURG, w. Va, Sept. 5.
(U.P)-Hoodlums burned a fence to-
day around the garage where Harry
F. Powers, matrimonial agency
Bluebeard killed and buried two
women and three children.
Police said they believed the
fence was burned by persons who
objected to paying 25 cents for the
privilege OF seeing the murder
scene.
Police said there was no one at
the scene when they arrived. The
fence had been torn down, satur-
ated with kerosene and set fire.
There was no crowd about the
jail today and no other demonstra
ton in the town, police said.
The property in Quiet Dell, six
miles from here, was leased to a
man by the name OF Mcclure by
Mrs. Luella Strouther Powers
Powers wife, who owns the prop
erty.
Thousands had been going to the
garage where the gruesome killing
took place
Police attempted to stop payment
of admission to the property but
the tenant constructed a high board
fence and as he had a lease po-
lice could do nothing.
Police said they had no clues as
to the identity OF the persons who
burned the fence but believed it
was a group who objected to pay
ing admission to the grounds.
