DEMOCRATS START HOMEWARD AFTER
 BE CONVENTION

CHICAGO, July 4, P)-Demo- crats were heading homeward Sum- day to bind up the wounds from the fray which presented solid front to carry the Roosevelt-Gar- ner pennant to victory.
 They predicted that aside from the Roosevelt-Smith breach-the unanswered question whether Al Smith will support the nominee, few traces from the conflict con- flicts are left.
 Like Smith, the delegations are enroute home, silent.
 Senator Walsh of Montana another Smith leader, called on his State to support the ticket and pledged himself to work for Roosevelt.
 The Roosevelt party. left Chicago for Albany by train. Thousands watched the departure.
 Both parties face financial diff faculties as they enter the cam paign. Rascob told the Democrats they had $142,000 and the Repub- licans more, but that neither party were in good financial shape for a vote-getting drive.

GLACIER PRIEST PLANS RETURN ID ALASKA
 NEW EXPL0RAT|0N

Subordinating a series of daring heroics exploits to a highly inStruc- tive illustrative lecture, teemlng with important scientific facts and valuable educational clements, Fr. Hubbard, s. J., entertained a full audience at the Liberty theater Sunday afternoon.
 The lecture was illustrated with scenes collected with the . motion picture camera last year and not hitherto shown to Alaska audiences, and some of the reels were given their premiere.
 The beholders of the pictures saw the intrepid Glacier Priest and his loyal companions crawl to diz- zy heights on the shell of active volcanoes, descend into furnaces of heat and, like Dante, viewing his Inferno, stand Silhouetted against a background as grim and as dan- gerous as it was awe-inspiring. Here they picked their way over terrain registering 250 degrees cen- tigrade, to emerge further onto moving, molten lava covered by thin crust and play hide and seek with death in the gas-laden vap- ors pouring from active vents like the hadean berth of a witch's brew.
 From a scenic view nothing ex- ceeds the motion pictures in dis closing the price the scientist and explorer pays for a grain of knowl- edge, which may be passed along to the more timorous seated in realms of comfort and safety. From a scientific angle, data was accum- ulated which, while guiding those who follow in carrying on the work of solving the great cosmic scheme, already adds materially to the store accumulated, piece by piece down the avenue of years.

LOS ANGELES, July 25-Funeral
rites intended to be of the simplest
nature, but which partook. nevertheless,
Ct the beauty he knew in life, were held
here yesterday for the master of
theatrical spectacles, F1orenz Ziegfeld.
In the quest for quiet and privacy,
not more than 100 close friends were
informed by telephone of the place of
the services, but they were nearly all
notables of stage and screen. They sur
rounded the undertaking establishment
with the glitter of their big motors and
their floral tributes, costing an esti-
mated SIS 900, banked the little chapel.
The short Episcopal funeral service
was read and a single voice arose. sing

whose requiem might have been sung by
the worlds most famous voices.
Will Complete Picture.
The body now at Forest Lawn Me-
mortal Park, will be taken to New York
by the widow, Billie Burke, when she
completes motion picture here. Will
Rogers, humorist actor, an old friend to
whom the widow turned in her grief
and who arranged the funeral said
Mayor Walker of New York telephoned
request early today that the body be
returned as soon as possible to the scene
of the Ziegfeld triumphs so that the
city itself might conduct a public
funeral. Mrs. Ziegfeld refused, Rogers
said, and insisted that privacy continue.
The services were held at noon. A
handful of persons stood about the
mortuary entrance and watched the ar
rival of the mournerS-John Barrymore,
Marion Davies, Eddie Cantor, Harold
Lloyd, Bebe Daniels, Ben Lyon, William
Randolph Hearst, Mr.. and Mrs. John
Boles and others of equal fame.
Billie Burke walked steadily from her
car on the arm of Will Rogers, with
14-year-old Patricia Ziegfeld at their
side. The widow was dry-eyed when
she entered, but she was weeping when

the finest and noblest sense OF the
word he was true artist. Today there
seems to be no one qualified to take his
place, no one to carry on his splended
work, The curtain has fallen for the
last time end Florenz Ziegfeld has gone
to his well earned rest"
Ziegfeld went to New Mexico desert
sanitarium some time ago to recuperate
from pneumonia. His condition grew
worse and he was brought to Holly
wood week ago. 1t was believed dur
ing the week that he was progressing
but he died Friday night.
