WHO WAS
WHO?
Mr.. DOOLEY AND MR..
HENNESSY
By Louise NJ. COmStOck

MIGHT after night Finley Peter
l Dunno used to while away
down in James McGarry's saloon
on Dearborn street in Chicago.
Week after week there came from
his pen those humorous cOnversa-
tiOns between Mr.. DoOley and Mr..
Hennessy which, throughout the late
nineties and the early nineteen hun
dreds carried a half comic, half
philosophical commentary on the
news Of the day which proved a
common sense and healthful indu
ence on the thought of the entire
country.
Mr.. DOoley was supposedly pat
termed on James McGarry himself,
as far at least as his rich brogue
was concerned; in thought and word
he was undoubtedly his author, Fin
ley Peter Dunno. Mr.. "Hinnlssy"
was John ]. McKenna. veteran poll
tician of Archie road" today chief
inspector of Illinois employment
agencies, and for half a century the
newspaper mans best source of in
formation upon interesting events in
Chicago's history.
Mr.. Hennessy's share in the con-
versahOns was merely to supply just
the obvious commonplace remark
needed to set Mr.. Dooley's easy
tongue wagging. seemingly inspired,
in long eXpostulations. Of current
events, with a wisdom that served
to set the opinion Of many readers
and a humor that served TO smooth
over much of the bitter partisanship
Of the day when party politics need
ed just such treatment. .. the
Lord save us from HARM" Mr.. Hen
messy would piously remark, and
Mr. Dooley would be off: "Ye ought
to know the history lv plat
forms. Years ago, Mr. Hin
Missy, many years ago, they was a
race between tn dimmicrats an tn
republicans :"

WILD BILL.
Y Y Y

THEY called him wild Bill" HE
l. kok, but his name wasn't Will
liam at all, and instead of being
wild, he was-most of the time
one of the quietest, softestspoken
men in the whole history of the
frontier. His real name was James
Butler Hickok, a native of Illinois,
who served as a spy for the Union
army in Missouri during the Civil
war and later as an Overland stage
driver and a scout for United States
army troops in the Indian wars In
the West.
The name "Wild Bill" was tackled
on to him because of a desperate
hand-to-hand battle he was sup
posed to have fought with the "Mc-
Candlas gang" while he was en-
ployed by the stage company. The
only trouble with the story Is that
such a fight as has been described
by many writer's never took place.
Official records in the Nebraska His
torical society show that Hickok
killed one man named McCanles, a
peaceful settler, and the manner of
the killing was such as to reflect
little if any credit upon Hickok.
Later as a marshal in various
Kansas towns. Iickok made bril-
liant record as a peace officer, be-
ing noted for the deadliness of his
aim with pistol. This enhanced his
reputation as wild Bill" but it also
led to his downfall. Eventually a
would-be bad man, who dared not
face Hickok, slipped up behind him
as he sat at a card game in Dead
wood, S. D., one day in 1876 and
shot him down.

in life, we must take the risk of being re-
sponsible for the results.
If we could lay the blame for present
conditions in our own country or in the
world on society at large, against whom
is the blame to be assessed? 1t is i'm
possible to point out any general moral
lapse, any widespread dishonesty. We
may say it was the result of greed and
Seltishness. But what body is to be spe-
cifically charged with that? Were the
wage earners too greedy in getting all
they could for their work? Were the
managers Of enterprise, big and little, too
greedy in trying to operate at a profit?
Were the farmers too greedy in their
efforts to make more money by tilling
more land and enlarging their prOduc-
tion?
Even if we could convict society on a
general charge of selfishness, we could
not point to any element that consciously
brought about a condition Of falling prices.

For the benefit of large numbers
of people who crave the "back to ma

forest service is establishing 'primf-

unimpdired unique natural values

1egiance from Italys Royal University
professors has been echoed by a Cali

the policy.
Paul Arthur Schilpp, professor Of
philosophy and chairman of the divi-
sion of social science of the College of
the Pacific, Stockton, Calf, declared
last night while en- route to Chicago
that Premier Mussolini was requiring
no more of Italy's professors than
many American universities require of
their own institutions"
Criticism of the oath request was
made earlier this week by DR.. A j.
Carlson noted University of Chicago

which he called on American scientists
to refuse to attend the International
Congress Of Physiology at Rome this
August unless the oath order were re-

Prof. Schilpp declared he was no
more in sympathy with the Fascist
movement than Dr. Carlson and cited
as backing for his defense of the oath
the practice of some American univer-

SIS 1000 900 left to religious and char
liable institutions by Miss Ella Wendell,
yesterday lost her fight to displace the
temporary administrators of the estate.
Surrogate John P. O'Brien denied a

Is no longer an interested party in the
venue question because last September
she signed a consent and waiver to the
signing of the will upon receipt of 81 900

The surrogate indicated, however,
that the change of venue issue was not
closed by yesterdays decision.
The question should not be tried and
determined now," he said "A final de-
cision can only be obtained on probate
proceedings"
The temporary administrators of the
estate, whom Miss Stansbury'S counsel,
Arthur Garfield Hays and Samuel Un-
termyer, sought to have displaced, are:
Charles G. Koss, who was Miss Wen
del's attorney; his daughter, Mrs Isabel
