mara, Thomas Taylor and Gordon
Vickerson. They will all be held
for disposition at the next term
of criminal court.
There are a number of these
visitors who are in Key West who
have not up to now been caught.
However, it is safe to say that be-
fore many hours have passed they
will be added to the dwellers in
the Maison de Niles.
So many of these, unfortGnates
many of them, are now on the
roads headed southwark and when
possible using trains for free trans
portation that officials of the +.
E. G. yesterday called Sheriff
Niles in conference with a view
TO finding some means of keeping
them out of Key West.
Every effort is to be made to
turn these unwelcome visitors
back at the county line or at some
point on the road. Those who
succeed in passing will be arrested.

WASHINGTON, Nov. &c.
Speaker Garner today an
nounced he would recognize
a motion to suspend the
rules for a vote on the resolu-
ton to repeal the Eighteenth
Amendment on the first day
of the coming session of
congress.
The vice president-elect
said both parties will "vote
on December s."
Only a minute before on
the senate side Of the capitol
similar sentiments had been
expressed by Senator Nc
Nary. of Oregon, republican
leader.
Submission of the repeal
amendment to the states
would REQUIRE a two-thirds
|of those voting in the house
and senate.
McNary told newspaper
men that in view of the ac-
tions of political conven-
|tions he would urge an early
congressional decision.
Senate leaders hadn't de-
cided today what form they
proposed the resolution
lshould take there.
Giving his views to re-
porters, Garner said, good
many gentlemen in congress
| of both parties favor a. vote
on the repeal before presen-
Itation of the beer bill and it
seems i'm natural order to
vote on the repeal then and
| the beer later"
| Garner said he personally
was going to draw the
resolution to be presented in
the house.

Brilliant Stars In Varied COlors
TO Light Eastern Sky In December

URBANA, ILL.,, Nov. 26.-The
eastern sky during the evenings
of December will be ablaze with
the brightest consultations in the
heavens.
At 8 o'clock the familiar quadri-
lateral Of Orion is well above the
horizon with it's two brilliant stars.
the red Betelgeuse at the left and
the blue Rigel at the right.
Three stars in line in the middle
of the quadrilateral direct the eye
downward to the Dog Star, Sirius.
the brightest of all the stars. Near
the horizon it flashes momentarily
all the colors of the rainbow, if the
air is disturbed.
Above Orion the V-shaped
Hyades can be seen in the constel-
lation Taurus, containing the red
star Aldebaran; and still higher
the Pleiades, or Seven Sisters, bear
some resemblance to a short hand
led dipper.
Procyon, the lesser Dog Star, ap-
pears to the left of Sirius and a
little higher. Above it is the rec
tangle of Gemini, with its bright
stars Castor and Pollux, the heav-
emily twins.
Auriga, looking somewhat like
an inverted muffin, appears above
Gemini. It's brilliant star Capelia
is yellow, like the sun.
It will repay anyone to observe
this celestial display some good
evening, especially when the moon
is out of sight. Then the colors OF
the stars are more clearly seen.
And then, if there is not too much
competition from artificial lights,
one notices the, luminous stream
of the Milky Way threading its
way up the sky, past the feet OF
Gemini, and the horns of Taurus.
1t is the 'thinnest part of the Milky
Way, in the direction toward the
edge of the great galactic system
which is nearest us,

Betelgeuse varies in brightness
in a way that until recently was
believed to be entirely unpre-
dictable. Sometimes it rivals its
blue neighbor Rigel; at other times
it is only a third as bright.
1t is now known that a cycle of
its fluctuation occupies about six
years. But there are irregularities
as well, so that no one can pre-
diet precisely how bright the star
will be at any time in the future.
The light of Betelgeuse is now
declining. 1t will be faintest dur
ing March of next year.

They TELL NE

of the Shelby County Republican
Club at Shelbyville Monday night, in
which Beckett declared:
'The two forms for producing ma
jor revenue which have been most
talked of are the sales tax and the
income tax. In the end, both these
measures take money out of the
pockets of the farmers and the Ia
boring people who live within the
state having such laws"
To the disinterested observer, it
is difficult to reconcile Beckett's
vote and the above statement with
the recommendations contained in
the report of Jan. Is, 1881, which
he quite evidently approved, for he
signed it. And there have been no
indications to show that he was
under duress at the time.
The best explanation of his at
titude is contained probably in

General c. is a dreff1e smart man;

RACKET THRONE
Murray Humphreys DareS
Gang Death to Take
Cars Seat.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Jan. l5.-The mighty
forces that drove AL Capone from
rule Of the rackets gathered anew
today to fight an athletic young
man who has stepped into the
gangster's place.
This time the conflict cropped
out in the cleaners and dyers' con-
troversy, with the murder last week
by gang eXecutioners of Benjamin
Rosenberg.
Today found the Secret Six"
crime fighting corps of the Asso-
citation of Commerce, leaders of the
Illinois Manufacturers Association,
the states attorney and police COM
bining to fight the latest gang
menace.
And it had revealed Murray Hum
pilreys, a calm-speaking, black
haired young hoodlum, with the
build Of an athlete, as the successor
to "Scareface AIS" control Of the
rackets.
"The man who steps into AIS
shoes will go out quick" was the un-
derworld shop talk after Capone's
conviction on charges Of income tax
fraud.
The place was offered to Johnny
Torrio, who held it before Capone
came to Chicago eleven years ago.
Torrio went back to Long Island.
But Humphreys took chance" !"
it was learned today, and assumed
chieftancy of the band Of gunner,
sluggers, bombers and extortionists
that Capone had marshaled to cor
raj millions of dollars for the syn
dicate.
Rosenberg's murder brought the
war into the open. He had stood
his ground when vandals poured
acid over thousands of dollars
worth Of clothing taken from his
cleaning and dyeing establishment.
He complained to police. Therefore
he was slain.
Two west sidC hoodlums, Philip
Mangano, brother of "Dago Law
renee" and Louis CLEMENT, we're
still sought as suspects.
The temperance in Chicago a
few days ago of George CBugs)
Moran, veteran enemy of Capone,
gave rise to reports he would at
tempt to get his share in the loot,
now that Capone is in jail.

"TONSISTENCY'S a jewel" was
~ declared in an American bal
lad published in 1867 and entitled
Jolly Robin Roughhead."
And quite evidently from his re-
cent public addresses and his votes
in the last session Of the general
assembly, State Senator Joe Rand
Beckett of Indianapolis, secretary
of the Indiana tax survey committee,
does not hold with this theory.
1t is a matter of record that
Senator Beckett signed the report
containing the recommendations of
the tax survey committee which de-
clared in favor of levy on per-
sonal net incomes, and a per cent
tax on corporate incomes.
The recommendations also in
cluded a retail sales tax of l per
cent.
The 1881 senate journal, still upon
the press, will show that Senator
Beckett voted against the passage
Of the personal income tax when
it came to the senate, and then he
was on the opposition to the tax
on corporate incomes.
u
At one time the bill failed to
pass by a vote of % ayes and 25
noes. Under the senate rules, twenty
six votes are necessary for passage,
yet Beckett cast his vote against the
measure and voted to table its re-
consideration.
His constancy also is revealed in
the address delivered at the meeting
