MISS WERNECKE
 RISEN TED AT. CANADIAN COURT.
Daughter of Mir. and Liv- ingston Wernecke At-
 tends Colorful Affair

When Their Majesties' represen- tatiyes in Canada, Their Excellen- cies the Governor General and Lady Bessborough, received at the open ing of the House of Commons and the drawing room January 26, at Ottawa, Miss Claire Wernecke, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Livings- ton Wernecke, who is student at the University of Washington, took her bow with others fortunate enough to have the opportunity of being presented at the Court of Canada.
 Mrs. Wernecke and Ter daughter have been visiting Mrs George Black of Dawson, and wife of the Speaker of the House of Commons, at their home in Ottawa and it was through the family friendship that the presentation was arranged
 CoIorfuI Occasion
 The society section of Saturday Night, Ottawa, publication, carried an account of the drawing room as follows: Scarlet tunics seemed more in evidence than since pre- war days in the brilliant lineup Of gold branded and bemedaled mem bers of the guard of honor, honor ary A. D. C.s and aides-de-camp attending Their Excellencies at the most picturesque drawing room in several years. There were 965 per- sons presented"
 Of the Werneekes, Saturday Night said: The Speaker of the House of Commons and Mrs. George Black held their reception in those hand somely paneled rooms where later, the next night, they gave a dance after the drawing room. Mrs. Black had chosen a very graceful dress of honey-colored lace and receiving with the hostess and Captain the Honorable George Black was Mrs. Livingston Wernecke, whose ricn blue velvet manteau de cour was cne of the most striking at the drawing room"
 Miss Wernecke's presentation gown was a model princess gown of white satin with cherry red velvet train.
 Mrs. Wernecke and her daughter have returned to the West, where Miss Wernecke will resume her studies at the University Mrs. Wernecke will return to her home in Juneau early in March.

BILLIONS

The Stillmans, father and son, have been drawn full lnegth by John K. Winkler in his latest vol ume on financial titans-"The First Billion"
 MT. Winkler is one of our lead ing opponents of popular" bio graphy, choosing to write in a style that once in a while reminds the reader of the sensational wing of the daily press. He emphasizes the odd features of his story, par ticularly the domestic habits of the elder Stillman, and certain color ful events in the life of his son.
 But there also is a good deal about the National City bank and it's history, and about the Stillman allies, especially William Rockefel- Ter.
 And for those to whom chills and horror are essential there is "The Cadaver of Gideon Wyck," by AL exander Laing. MT. Laing's book is cleverly put together, advancing from grisly details to still more grisly details with stealthy tread.
 From these horrors one turns al- most with relief to strange little book by Laura Adams Armer and Sidney Armer called Cactus" MT and Mrs. Armer have illustrated and described 50 forms of cacti, es- pecially for the collector thereof.

PARIS FRONT IS IMPORTANT,
 BOOK CIRCLES
IL Is a War Story Written by Frenchman Sea
 Tale Vividly Told
By JOHN sELBY

NEW YORK, Feb. 22.-Michel Corday's The Paris Front" seems important for a curious reason. It is 3 war book, but it is written by a Frenchman who was middle-aged when the war broke out, and who stayed at home and thought in stead of going into the trenches oo bleed.
 It really is not a book at all, but a literal transcription of M. Cordays diary, in which he set down day by day what the people at home were doing and thinking about the war.
 M. Corday was not swept away by the urge to kill. Killing seemed cruel to him at the beginning and it continued to seem so. He was not fooled by propaganda, either, and refused to see all Germans as friends He knew many important people, and put into his diary their reactions as well; many men, one

To the landsman, and perhaps to most sailors, Erling Tambs deci- sion to sail round the world in a 40-foot boat seems foolhardy-be- cause when MT Tambs was ready to start he did not have even a sextant!
 He is a Norwegian novelist, and bought his pilot cutter with the royalties from novel
 Before he was out oI the North sea he and his wife were almost wrecked. The English Channel brought two more narrow escapes. In the Canary Islands their first child was born; in New Zealand the family was increased again And on the coast of New Zealand their boat was lost. , It sounds little mad, but "Tho Cruise of the Teddy" makes fasci- mating reading.

IN
Tolls AGAIN

Tulsa, Okla, Aug. l. W.H-Jim
Clarke, notorious Oklahoma des-
perado and leader In two Kansas
prison breaks, was captured here
early today.
He was arrested without battle
by members of a Kansas highway
patrol squad and federal agents.
Clarke and Frank Delmare were
the only two members still at large
of the desperate band which broke
from the Lansing, Kan, prison last
January 18 with Bob Chg Boy)
Brady, slain by posse two days
later.
Clarke today was on his way
back to the Lansing prison.
After his capture, the officers,
heavily armed, bundled him into a
car, and started the drive back to
Kansas.
Clarke was hunted in dozen
bank robberies in Oklahoma, which
were perpetrated after his last es-
cape.
Clarke and Brady were leaders
with Wilbur Underhill, who was
slain last fall at Shawnee, in the
Memorial day break at the Kansas
prison in 1888.
On October 6, Clarke and Brady
were captured and wounded in
Tucumcari, N. NJ, and returned
to the Kansas prison. They were
in the prison only until January
10 of this year, when they engi-
neered another break.
Clarke was serving life term
in the Kansas prison on conviction
of bank robbery under the habitual
criminal statutes.
The desperate was captured in
front of an apartment house in
which he had lived for three weeks.
So quickly did officers close in on
him that he had no chance to re-
sist.
Mrs. Leona Brady, 81, widow
of Bob Brady, and her companion,
Charles White, unknown to police
here, we're arrested with Clarke,
Money sacks found in the car
at the apartment were believed
to have been taken when the OF
tawa, Kansas, bank was robbed
recently.
Mrs. Brady and White were held
here for investigation.

EUROPEAN COUNTRIES NERVOUSAS
Won HINDENBURG DEATH INPENDS
General Staffs Studying War Plans AS Prep
aration For Possible Outbreak If German
Monarchy Restored.

slovakia, Roumania and Jugoslavia
have threatened to march into
Austria if Hapsburg was put back
on the throne or namtd regent.
Reports that seemed unquestion-
ably true said there was no chance
of call for Hohenzollern to re-
place Hindenburg.
The new factor, which brought
fears in European chancelleries
back to where they were in the
early days of the Nazi revolt in
Austria, was Hindenburg IS illness.
France On Watch
France particularly watched Hin
denburg's Neudeck sick room with
anxiety. French government chiefs
refused to say what action they
would take If the Hohenzollern
problem rose.
Many observers thought France
and perhaps Belgian and troops of
another nation-apparently mean
ing Britain--would make rapid
march into the Rhineland as pre-
cautionary measure.
There were many developments
that showed Europe's frame of
mind.
French military experts held
this summer air maneuvers in
France, Italy, Japan, Great Britain
and the United States showed that
large airplane fleet by sudden at
tack could deliver Shattering and,
perhaps decisive, blow at an enemy
nation.
The Paris prefecture Of police, it
was announced, was speeding up
air defense machinery. A study
was begun of means of evacuating
all possible Parisians to the country
in event of attack.
The Swiss general staff consid-
cred plans for erecting chain of
modern Notifications along the Ger
man frontier.
