his official and social enterprises were attended by the glamor and ex- citement of really important first night. The most casual announce ment that Jimmy would appear here or there was sufficient to bring out, like butterflies emerging from their cocoons, a grand parade of "big names ''
 The legislative storm that finally forced Walker to abdicate got under way in 1881. A committee made a thorough investigation of all con- tracts issued by the Walker admin istration. The blow-up, however, left Walkers name unmentioned until, months later, it was charged the Mayor had earned a huge profit from an oil venture ill which he had in vested nothing.
 Samuel Seabury, handling the in- vestigation, then brought out huge sums involving partnership be- tween Jimmy and Paul Block, the newspaper publisher. A campaign to secure Walkers removal was set in motion, and he was haled before Governor Roosevelt at Albany.
 Married Betty Compton
 Charging biased and unfair" tac- tics, Jimmy, in i'll health, resigned from office and left almost immed- lately for Europe Shortly afterward the first Mrs. Walker won divorce and Jimmy quietly married Betty Compton, stage star who, with her mother, had accompanied him to Europe.
 The succeeding two years Jimmy spent in England, writing columns for London newspapers, entertaining guests from America, and working, it is said, on the biography which he brought with him out of exile.

Boys Fight Leads To Family Feud

stitches taken to close deep cash in his head. Ar
Day suffered three fractured ribs and wound
his chest where he said his assaant had bitten off
a piece of flesh. Mrs. John Waller was treated for
cuts and bruises about the face Many others recev

During the checker-board moves
throughout the summer the League
OF Nations as an agency to avert
war seemed to be especially impo-
tent. BY one way and another, Italy
appeared to win the support Of
France, Germany and the lesser
powers in what 1t was about to un-
dertake, and only England was left
in open opposition to its program
Of conquest. England moved a
strong fleet into the Mediterranean
and strengthened it's garrison on
the Island Of Malta, and thus put
itself in a position to cut Italy's line
of communications through the
Suez Canal to Ethiopia, but the
English diplomats kept very quiet
about whether or not this force
would be used.
The crisis came when the English
spokesman at Geneva made It very
plain that England stood squarely
for the League Of Nations covenant
