FAIRIES REAL RACE,
SCIENTIST THINKS
British Group Told Indica-
tions Point to Early Un-
derground Folk.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
YORK, England, September There
are reasons for believing that the fairies
of folklore were an actual race Of men
perhaps driven out by the influx of
modern man-the British Association
for the advancement of Science was told
today.
1t is quite possible, said Rev. Canon
j. A. MacCulloch, that the stories
of fairies are based on facts, and date
back to some long-lost race Of pigmies
or Neolithic men who lost in the strug-
gle for survival with the ancestors of
man as he is today.
The traditional conception OF fairies
and gnomes bears close resemblance
to pignies as they are known today.
Fairies also may have been thought of
as ghosts of an earlier race. They are
often connected with burial mounds,
and there are parallels in folklore be-
tween fairies and ghosts.
Habits of fairies as depicted in fairy
tales, and habits Of primitive men are
often similar, he pointed out. Fairies
are often depicted as disliking the high
civilization of humans, dwelling under
ground. using stone weapons in prefer
ence to iron. There are legends of
and fairies that may be based on
migrations Of ancient man.
An early pigmy race cannot be the
sole foundation Of belief in fairies,
however, Canon MacCulloch said. The
fairy folklore has been embellished with
many supernatural beliefs and fairies
finally became beings with a combi-
nation Of human and imaginary traits.
Ancient men in Britain, who may or
may not have been the basis of the
fairy-tale folklore, date back to glacial
times, said Prof. P. G. H. Boswell.

RIO DE JANEIRo, September T.
Eight rebels were killed and 80 wound
ed, the government announced today,
in q battle in which Federal troops
wrested from the Sac Paulistas the
town Of Aracassu. 16 miles from
Itapetininga.
Today was the 10th anniversary of
Brazilian independence. Civilians here
in the capital celebrated quietly. On
the battlefront 40,00o men were under
arms.
The ministry of Marine last night
announced that seven Navy planes had
bombed and destroyed Fort Itaipu at
the entrance of the Santos Harbor.
The navy had an agreement with the
Sac Paulo rebels not to indulge in hos
tilities, but the ministry said the rebels
had machine-gunned airplanes drop
ping manifestoes over Monteserrat.
Federal authorities regarded the in
cident as significant since they held
the possibility of the navy joining the
Paulists was now destroyed. Some even
believed the navy might abandon its
sentimental attitude.
A communique tonight said the fed
eral forces had made gains toward Sac
Paulo from both the North and the
South. The capture of Taquery, 40
miles west of Bury, was announced.

Marooned by flood water on a small
Grand River Island for more than 80
hours, 80 campers were rescued late
yesterday, apparently little the worse

Braving 10-mile current in small
rowboat, Joseph Smith and Hugh Devlin

the mainland in the course of several
trips across the dangerous strip of
water.
Some OF the campers had been on the
island since Friday night when they
drove their automobiles through shall
low water. Sudden heavy rains put a
torrent eight feet deep between them

cents per ton over the prevailing wage
rate for workers In youngstown puddle
mills representing the first increase in
the scale IN four years Union mem
bers of the Amalgamated Association OF
Iron, Steel Il Tin Workers will be

The bar iron wage scale Is determined
by prices Of the product in months i'm
mediately preceding the period OF which
net scales are calculated. In Septem-
Der the average bar iron sales price
was $3.50 per 100 pounos, against $l.45
in July and August and this advance
was followed by the upward readjust-
ment in wages OF bar iron workers,
which, under an agreement with the

SUN ECLIPSE TODAY
Phenomenon Is Visible Only
Near South Pole.

WASHINGTON, March THE
years first eclipse, one of the sun,
occurs today, but no astronomers
will view it. 1t is an annular
eclipse, in which the moon is a
little farther from the earth than
during total eclipses and covers
only the center of the sun, leav-
ing a ring of light visible around
it.
Even this effect will be seen from
only a small region close to the
south pole, far from any human
habitation. In Australia, and part
of the Malay Archipelago, the sun
will be seen in partial eclipse as
it sets. Observations of partial or
annular eclipses are of virtually no
scientific value.
Already, however, astronomers are
preparing for the years second
eclipse of the sun, on Aug. 81.
This will be total, and the path of
visibility will cross Canada and New
England.
In addition, there will be two
eclipses of the moon, both partial.
The first of these, on March %,
will be visible in the beginning in
the western United States, but the
other, on Sept IA, will be seen only
from points in Europe, Asia and
Africa.

committeeman and county worker
in Harrison county, and then
entered the wider field as secretary
to congressman.
In the almost forty years of
political activity which has featured
O'Bannon's career, he tried only
once for major Office and that was
in 1924, when nominated for lieu
tenant governor.
His entrance into the race took
away a considerable portion of sup
port from the others, because, it
is said, the delegation from the
entire Eighth district will be
pledged to him as a complimentary
gesture.
This means that the Evansville
and New Albany delegates, who or
dinarily would have been found in
the Myers column, because of his
avowed anti-prohibition attitude
will go to O'Bannon, while he will
take the rural counties from
Myers.
Then, too, because of his wide &C
quaintance among old-line Dem
ocratS, O'Bannon'is expected to pull
strength from other parts of the
state.
Not that he is dangerous threat
but there is the possibility that
the Corydon publisher may hold
enough votes to keep either Myers
or Van Nuys from getting the
necessary 780 to obtain the nominal
ton.
A deadlock in the Democratic
senatorial race is not improbable.

THE campaign of unbroken
i silence being conducted by
Fred Van Nuys, one of the three
candidates for the Democratic
nomination for United States SEN

much strength to his side.
On the other hand, Speaker WAL
ter Myers has been giving his vocal
chords workout at every meeting
of which he is advised.
What once appeared to be a clean
cut contest between two hard
fighters is assuming the appearance
of a puzzle, as a result of announce
ment of candidacy by Lew M.
O'Bannon, Corydon publisher and
attorney.
None of the trio is an amateur at
the game of politics. Van Nuys has
served as state chairman and United
States district attorney, as we'll as
having been member Of the state
senate.
Myers made a strenuous campaign
in 1925 as the Democratic nominee
for mayor and then went out in
1928 to battle Albert Stump in the
senatorial primary. which he lost.
He has consistently kept his name
before the voters and as a result

BIRTHDAY FETE
Initiation to Mark Lodges
Thirtieth Anniversary.

Plans will be made tonight by
Indianapolis Eagles aerie for OBJ
serving the thirtieth anniversary of
its founding with an initiation
Monday night, March %.
The aerie has the distinction of
having given the national organiza-
ton two presidents, the late DR..
Carl G. Winter and Otto F. DeluSe,
the latter for more than a decade
leader in the orders campaign for
old age pensions and a member of
national commission advocating
creation Of a federal commission
for the sterilization of employment.
At memorial service of the aerie
held Feb. 7, 1904, Frank E. Herring,
South Bend, past national Eagles
president, made the first public APP
peal for a nationwide observance
of Mothers day, an event recorded
on a bronze tablet placed in the
English opera house by the order on
May 10, 1881.
The drill team of the aerie won
first place three consecutive years
in national competition, a record
equaled by only one other aerie.
Wilbur H. Miller, secretary, is inside
guard of the Indiana state aerie.
and j. Piece Cummings, twice local
president, holds a national record
of obtaining new members with a
total of $50.
