HONOLULU, April 8
IN.S.).-East and West to-
day stood merged.
At this cross road of the
Pacific-a veritable "human
melting pot was achieved
this remarkable amalgamation
in a jury that will judge the
"honor Staying" trial of four
Americans.
Selection of the jury set the
stage for the opening Monday OF
a great human drama in which
Grace Hubbard Fortesque, Wash
ington society matron; Lieut..
1uomas H. Massie, U. S. NJ, and
two enlisted men Of the United
States Navy will be tried for sec
ond degree murder-Charged with
taking mans life to balance the
scales against a woman's honor
Miniature Honolulu"
They are charged with the slay'
ing of Joseph Kahahawai, Ha-
waiian half-caste, alleged ring
leader of a gang of five that
brutally assaulted pretty Thalia
Massie, daughter of Mrs. For
tesque, and wife of Lieutenant
Massie.
The jury that will hear the case
is a miniature Honolulu, hall
white men and half men Of varied
races.
The even balance of the jury
may be fraught with great sig
nificance. Uncorsciously Clarence
Darrow. the chief defense counsel
must address himself to the
Caucasions on the jury, and just
as assuredIy the prosecution must
plead it's case primarily to the
remaining six of varied race ana
color. Darrow hopes certainly for
a hung jury if he is unable to
secure an acquittal.
If unanimous decision is
reached it will represent the uni
fled ideas of both East and west
as to justice.
MakingS of Jury
The jury is composed Of the
following:

secretary and prominent in
Honolulu business life for many
years. Former secretary to

PLANE VISITS

BABYSH|P
Vineyard Sound Again Stirs
With Activity Just
Before Dawn

OAK BLUFFS, Mass, April
8 (I.N.S.).- mysterious air.
plane, which swooped down
from a darkened sky and
landed beside an unidentified
vessel in Vineyard Sound,
raised the belief today that
another possible contact had
been made between the kid
napers of Baby Charles A.
Lindbergh, jr., and the nego-
tiators for his return.
The hum of an airplane motor
reused residents early today.
Lights were observed twinkling
in the sky far off shore. Sud
denly the lights descended and
came to rest on the watery hori'
zon beside a ship whose lights
were glowing. Shortly afterward
the lights went out.
Hopes Renewed
This unusual incident, coupled
with a report that a mystery
plane had been observed last
night over Falmouth, once again
aroused the belief that Vineyard
Sound, with al its isolated islands,
was the focal point of representa-
tiveS of Col. Charles A. Lindbergh
in carrying on negotiations with
the kidnaperS.
Following the report of the
plane, a detail of police and Gus
toms Agent William j. Fitzgerald,
of New Bedford, started a search
of cottages along the Falmouth
waterfront.
Find Carrier Pigeon
While the search disclosed no
evidence of the planes presence
in Falmouth, it did uncover a
clue which may prove important.
Searching the cottages, Police
Chief William A. Mercer dis
covered an exhausted carrier
pigeon on the roof of a cottage
on Hidden Beach, Wild Harbor
The owner of the pigeon was
sought. The registration band
was No. MPC 10,831F31.
At the same time Chief Mer-
Ger said he had been informed
that four agents of the Depart
ment of Justice had arrived in
Falmouth.

AMI VENUS
SHINE IN
MORNING SKY SHOWS

Urbana, ILL.,, Oct. A. APP
Many persons who observed the
total solar eclipse of August 81
noticed the bright star not far to
the right of the eclipsed sun. This
star-llke object now is visible i'm
the eastern sky at dawn. 1t is not
a star in fact but the great planet
Jupiter.
Jupiter has moved only a little
way from its place among the
stars at the time of the eclipse. 1t
is the brilliant object not far be-
low the Sickle of Leo. This planet
requires II years to complete its
circuit eastward among the con-
stellations.
But Jupiter is not the brightest
object in the morning sky. Above
It and also a little above the
handle Of the sickle there is a
star-like object nearly ten times
as bright. This is Venus, the
fioi Hiiik StdA.
Venus is moving eastward
across Leo faster than Jupiter. 1t
will be interesting to those who
watch the morning sky to see it
gradually overtake Jupiter until
on the Goth of the month these
two planets, the most brilliant in
the heavens, will be remarkably
close together.
AS the early riser surveys this
conjunction of the planets he may
well wonder whether next month
will bring a third fine exhibit in
this region of celestial spectacles
"a display of Leonid meteors.
The earth will pass near the
path of these meteors about the
middle of November. 1t is i'm
possible to say in advance wheth-
er there will be at that time sim
ply an unusual number of "shoot-
ing stars" or whether the sky will
blaze with these celestial fire
works as it did in 1888 and 1857.
when superstitious persons feared
that the world was coming to an
end.
October is a favorable month 10
see the zodiacal light in the morn
ing sky. 1t is a ghostly glow
which appears above the eastern
horizon for an hour or two before
dawn; broad at the base it tapers
upward leaning toward the south.

N FORCE FORMS
DEMAND COMMITTEE
IN TURBULENT MEET

Uniontown, Pa, Oct. 5.-(APl
The bonus expeditionary force
Wednesday voted to let a commit
tee personally carry demands for
public recognition" to Washing
ton after the executive committee
turned down a suggestion for an
other march on the capital if the
demands are not met.
Gathering in a dimly lighted
warehouse, with rain pelting the
roof and locomotive whistles
drowning voices of the delegates,
the convention went on record In
favor of immediate payment of
compensation certificates.
The executive committee after
an hours wild debate, decided not
to sponsor the march proposal.
Instead, Hoke Smith, national
field officer, will head a commit
tee of 10 to present the organiza-
tons demands to President Hoov-
err, Vice President Curtis and
Speaker Garner.
The committee will go to Wash
ington Immediately after the ma
tional convention of the organiza-
ton here is ended.
In the petition to be presented
at Washington was also a demand
that there be no legislation intro
duced "that will reduce veterans
allowances in any way, namely in
disqualification or rehabilitation"
The convention approved a reso-
luton censuring President Hoover
sand those of your administration
who took part in the eviction of
the B. f. F. from Washington on
July % and 20, 1882"
The delegates voted to ~incorpor-
ate as the bonus expeditionary
force.
Twice the convention was on the
verge of collapse. 1t tangled over
parliamentary rules and shouted

THE FAITHFUL CHEAT
BY Ruby M. Ayres

of anger and unhappiness in her
heart.
She almost felt as if she had
forced herself upon him and had
been CURLY dismissed, and yet
he had been perfectly courteous
and friendly, and again she Won
dered if perhaps the fault lay
with herself?
Was it because she felt guilty?
and yet-what was it to do with
Anderson if she chose to marry
and keep it a secret? She was in
no way tied to him. He had gone
away after she had asked him to
stay; it was for her to be angry.
Not that she cared what he did,
or if he never spoke to her again;
and then swiftly on the heels of
that thought came denial.
That's not true-I do care. Pm
fond of him."
Fond of him, and used to him
also-she had unconsciously grown
to rely on him; he had always
been there, her willing cavalier
she would miss him terribly if the
old happy friendship was indeed
at an end. And he had been in
too much of a "hurry" to ring her
up--her cheeks burned as she re-
called his words.
The order of things was indeed
reversed-it had always been she
who had put him aside for other
inclinations, but now -.
Of course he was lunching with
Nathalie Symons; Sondra felt
hurt and Inundated.
She would have liked to lunch
with John-she had missed him
terribly during the past month,
but it was only now that he was
home again and not seeking her
company, hat she realized how
much she had missed him.
Had Beatrice been right when
she said that John had not be-
lieved them that day? Beatrice
was always full of stupid ideas
Sondra was quite sure that John
had not suspected anything; why
should he? and yet it was
from that moment that the easy
feeling of friendship between them
seemed to have altered
But she could make no more
overtures to him-she would have
to stand aside now, and LET him
take the initiative.
She went home ~restlessly; her
meeting with Anderson had quite
put Flora and last nights scene
from her thoughts until the butler
asked her to go to Mr.. Lomax at
once in the study.
1t was so seldom that Ben ever
noticed his sister-in-law that Som
dra felt a sudden throb of anxiety
as she went to his study door;
surely Flora had not carried out
her foolish threat?
Ben was sitting in his chair at
the elaborate desk staring at his
wife's portrait, and he did not
move when Sondra entered.
She went quickly to him
Ben is anything the mat
ter?"
He turned his eyes to her face,
c%uriously blank eyes they were, as
if some shock had wiped out their
intelligence.
Sondra laid a hand on his arm,
shaking him.
ben! -. what is it? What has |
happened?"
His face worked convulsively, he
made an effort to speak. "She's
gone -. left me | didn't think
she meant it-no woman could be
so cruel She said she hated
could she hate me, I've
never been anything but good to
her Gone without a word 4
all her jewelry left behind-never
coming back. Oh, my God,

smile.
"No-but you were with such a
very charming girl"
Il know many very charming
girls"
They had come to the end of
the path and were forced to stop.
81 must go back" Sondra said.
81 will walk back with you,"
Anderson answered.
They turned together.
"And how is everybody? An
derson asked casually. II seem to

time"
"A month";" Sondra said. "But
everyone is quite well in spite of

He ignored that.

Her heart missed a beat.
Eyes, once-he seemed to be en-

1t was not the truth; Mark had
written that he was more unhappy

Anderson said. 81 hope he will do

"Of course-but you have been

Isn't that being good to him?"
She was unhappily silent, and
suddenly Anderson stopped.

not looking very well, Sondra."
She said again dispiritedly, "My
head aches, I haven't been sleep

"You want a change"

anything that | ought to be angry
with you about?" he asked whim-

"Of course not" but her eyes
fell.
"Then | am not angry" Ander-
son said. He waited a moment,
and this time it was Sondra who
turned away.
She walked along with unseeing
eyes; there was a curious mixture
