KIDNAPERS- OILED,SCMLD.
 s6O, 900 RANSOM RECOVERED

HARWICH, Mass.-With the ar rest of two men and the recovery of $60,000 ransom, police late today be- lieved they had solved the Kidnapping of 10-year-old Peggy McMath.
 One of the suspects, Kenneth Buck, was said to. have confessed sisgsp spart in the crime. The. money was recov- cred at his home after he and his brother, Cyril, had been taken to. jail at Barnstable, 12 miles from here. Before his removal from Harwich, Cyril denied ythat his part in. the crime was any more than that of an intermediary. He said she was given a cut of $1O,OOo, but promptly turned it. rover 9tu. Neil ,McMath, Peggy's father. Kenneth Buck not only. inn plicated his own brother, but sai6 there were others in the case-two professionals, who had taken $5O,O0O of the ransom money. Police doubted this, and after sending the, brothers off to gail they went to Kenneth's home and recovered the entire $60,- 900. Tl1is virtually closes the case, said Joseph Ferrari, State detective, except to find the other conspirators, if there are two others.
 Peggy was safely returned to her parents.

WASHINGTON, April a7.-1n con- .formity with the wishes of the peo- pie of Alaska, as expressed through the Territorial Legislature, Delegate Dimond will support Senate and House bills providing for suspension of assessment work on mining prop .erty for the year ending July l, 1883.
 He asked for an expression of opin- ion from Ahe Legislature, and both houses endorsed the pending legisla- 4tion.
 The Territorial Senate urged that assessment work be made necessary on partnership claims where one or amore .partners but mot all had paid federal income taxes for 1882.
 Sentiment in the House, as ex- pressed in wire to the Delegate, ap- peared to be against continuation of the assessment moratorius, but it was felt there that in view of the fact that so many mine owners are now under the impression that Con- gross has already passed the legisla- tion; and ahecause the season is so far advanced the Delegate should now work for spassage of the bills. How ever, the House advised that he should put himself on record against further legislation of this character should itsbe-advanced at a future ses- sion.

Reducing Our Fleet

If one cared to be super-patriotic,
it would be fairly easy to work up a
good bit of excitement over the fact
that one-third Of the entire U. S.
fleet is to be placed in reserve COM
mission on July l, with reduction
Of more than 1000 men in the navy's
enlisted personnel.
That this reduces the fighting eff
cheney of the fleet goes without say
ing. A navy which must pull third
Of its ships out Of dockyards and find
crews for them at the recruiting sta
lions in the event of sudden trouble
is undeniably below the standard
which its paper strength gives it.
But there doesn't seem to be much
real ground for worry, even so.
Troubled as the world is, moderately
competent craftsmanship at Washing
ton ought to bring us through the
next few years without letting us get
into a war. A war right now would
be calamity for us anyway, even II
our fleet were twice its present size

He told Negro stories to shipyard

Of his poolroom and cafe in Newport

gress, but lost the nomination. BY
this time, however. he had acquired
such q judge-like demeanor that when
he came to New York Big Tim Suln-

rally. Kelly told stories instead. and
received two theatrical offers as he
left the platform.
Under the direction Of A. L. Err
LANCER, he rehearsed in an operate
version Of "Huckleberry Finn" Mark
Twain himself assisted, but the show
was q flop in its try-outs Next Kelly
teamed with Marie Dressler in vau-
deville act. But Miss Dressler fell
suddenly i'll, and the manager went
to Kelly's dressing room with tears
in his eyes. Could Mr.. Kelly 60 on
alone and do something-anything?
Mr.. Kelly could. He told Negro stor-
les, and the audience wouldn't let him

few ventures into musical comedy and

Where Hitler Will Fail
Duluth Herald

To Americans familiar with the
Masonic Maternity and its broad UNI
DERIVING principles Of tolerance and
good will to all races, nothing is more
indicative Of the temporary and
flimsy character Of Hitlerism than its
attempt to instill racial hatreds into
German Masonry.
Forced by Hitler and his lieuter-
ants, the grand lodges Of Germany
are reported to have issued an order
dissolving all subordinate lodges, az
ter which they are to be reorganized
on what Hitler with unconscious irony
calls a purely Christian basis"
That means Of course that Jews are
to be excluded from German Masonry
hereafter, or until Hitler and his fan
atical theories are thrown out. More
than that, it bans all Masonry, TO,
no matter what it calls itself ate,
Hitler reorganizes the lodges, it will
have no resemblance to an orde,
whose primary principle is the Faith
erhood Of God and the brotherhood
Of man.
However, Masons have nothing tc
worry about. Their great order has
been attacked before and always ha.
emerged stronger and more influen
tial than ever.

little except the alpha and omega of

now the principal character role In

Youths View of War

The Intercollegiate Disarmament
Council recently polled more than d.
600 American college students on the
attitude they would take if the Unit
ed States should get into another war.
Nearly 80 per cent OF the students who
replied asserted that they would new
er participate in any war. A slightly
smaller number said that they would
fight only If the United States were
actually invaded.
AS evidence Of a changing attitude
on the part Of youth toward war, this
Is extremely interesting. Probably.
however, it does not represent as much
Of a pacifistic tendency as appears
on the surface. Youth is impetuous,
vulnerable to strong emotional ap-
peals; it is safe bet that a good
many Of these lads who insist they
will never fight would find their way
to a recruiting station pretty prompt
ly If we actually went to war.

Hot Weather Precautions

The general arrival Of warm wealth.
er brings a new rush of business to
the old swimming hole again: and
this, very shortly, will bring the usual
number Of drownings unless the SWIM
mers, juvenile and otherwise, pay at
tention to a few simple rules of safe
ty.
We already have had one swim
ming hole" fatality In Burleigh coun-
ty this year.
It isn't wise to go suddenly into
cold water when you are overheated,
or when you have just finished q
meal. It isn't wise to swim alone in
q spot where no one can help you If
you need help. It isn't wise to dive
into a strange pool without first sat-
isfying yourself that you aren't apt
to land on hidden rock or snag. It
isn't wise to go in the water when
you're under par physically, or to
keep on swimming after you have got
cold or tired.
Those rules are perfectly obvious,
Of course. But every year a lot of
people who forget to heed them get
drowned.
