LONDONERS MARK
SCOTT CENTENARY
Sir Walters Visit to Score of Places
in Old Capital City Being
Recalled.

LONDON (NAN.A).-Lond as
well as Edinburgh, is celebrating the
Sir Walter Scott centenary by an ex-
hibition at the National Gallery. The
great novelist was very fond Of the
English capital. and there are still
nearly 20 places in London which are
in much the same condition as when
he visited them or lived in them.
The room at 50-A Albemsrle street
in which Scott resolved his differences
with Byron in the presence Of John
Murray. the publisher is still just as 1t
was then 1t is now the apartment in
which John Murray's grandson receives
visitors.
No. 13 Grosvenor street remains also.
Here there was once concourse OF
poets to meet Scott. Each recited lines
of his own poetry till it came to SCOTS
turn. He. however, said modestly that
he had nothing of his own worth say
ing, but that he would repeat some lines
he had seen in the paper that morn
ing. Afterward everybody but Scott de-
clared the lines to be rank nonsense.
until Coleridge stammered: For Gods
sake, let Mr.. Scott have his own way.

SMOKE RATES WRITING

Sir James Barrie Requires 1880
Pipes Per Novel.
LONDON IN. A. N. a. Sir James
Barrie, who has just recovered from an
attack of bronchitis shares with many
artists the sheer necessity for smoking
while writing. Sir James, however,
goes one better than most. in that he
has invented a prescription which he
vigorously adheres to when writing.
This is as follows:
Eight pipes one ounce, two ounces
one week. two weeks one chapter,
twenty chapters one nib, two nibs one
novel"
Thus Sir James allows himself 1890
pipes of tobacco per novel.

MAYOR WALKER
 AND SEABURY TO SEE GOVERNOR

Albany, N. Y.. Aug 8-UP)-- Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt's decision, on whether he will hear witnesses at Thursdays public hearing against Mayor James J.. Walker was regarded to-day as having an important bearing on the outcome of the case. Samuel Seabury, accuser, and Walker, de- fendant, will face each other at the proceedings with the gover- nor acting as judge. When the hearing begins Thursday, witnesses will be present. Should Walker demand them and be upheld by Roosevelt, the hearing undoubted- ly would continue many days.
 The general belief here now is that the proceedings will be over in about two days, following which the governor will begin an imme- diate study of the testimony and hand down a decision as soon as possible. It Is we'll known that the governor desires. to dispose of the Walker case speedily so he can plunge into his campaign.

Concord, N. H., Aug S.-UP)- Possibility that an attractive young woman whose body was found floating in the Merrimack river here yesterday leaped or was thrown from a railroad train was considered by police today. Ab- sence of water in the lungs led investigators to suspect foul play Though the woman was fashion ably dressed she wore no jewelry. leading to the belief that robbery might have motivated the crime, if she actually was slain. Marks of a strap on the wrist indicated she had worn a watch.
 In this section the tracks of the Boston & Maine railroad follow the river for miles and police pointed out that the woman might have been a passenger on the f$fw York-Montreal Express. wsSch passed the spot few hours before the body was found.

 A government spokesman for the first time confirmed that ne- gotiations were starting this week for taking into the cabinet men close to the Hitlerites.'
 The spokesman emphasized. however, that the cabinet would retain its so-called super-party character, relying on President von Hindenburg for support.
 The movement to make Hitler chancellor was tagging. Both of his co-leaders, Gregor Strasser and Wolhelm Prick, opposed his taking the key post, as did Kurt von Schleicher, minister/ of de- fense and the real power in the government. Won Schleicher was reported to have said privately he would not remain in office if Hit Ter became chancellor.
