was another astronomical crank,
and forgot the matter.
A few weeks later a French
man named Leverrier completed
a complex calculation based
upon the discrepancies in the
motion of the planet Uranus,
and wrote to his friend Gale,
then head of the German OBJ
servatory at Berlin, and pre-
dicted the existence of another
planet outside of Uranus. He
advised that this undiscovered
planet would be found at GER
tain spot in the heavens. nam
ing the night and the hour.
NEPTUNE
Gale did not turn Leverrier
down, but looked for the pre-.
dicted planet. Within one de-
gree of where Leverrier had
told him to look, he found it.
We now know it as Neptune.
1t developed afterward that
the young Englishman, Mr.. j.
C. Adams, had worked out the
identical computation that Lev.
errier had, but because the
head of the English observatory
would not take the trouble to
look, Adams lost the honor of
being the first man to predict
the existence and location of
Neptune.
Predictions of this sort are
not ordinary "fortune-telling."
There is nothing occult about
them. They are based upon
the most laborious and pains
taking observations of ex.
tremely small differences in po-
sition of a faint star.
Both the Englishman Adams
and the Frenchman Leverrier
knew that the planet Uranus

 Under Shipment
(By The Associated PreSS)

FOOCHOW, China, June 2, - Much opium sold in the Fukien pro- vince comes from the mountainous provinces to the west, and one of the main hazards of the busin ess is in getting the cargo from the remote growing districts to the markets.
 Recently word reached here that a 100000 pound opium shipment had left Kweichow in 100 small boats over the hazardous but much used Yuan river opium route, destined for the Yangtse valley.
 When last hearl from the ship ment had reached the river port of Hungkiang, in western Human pro- vince having completed the first diff ficult stage of it's journey through a region infested with bandits.
 Heavily guarded by Kweichow troops, the consignment was being reloaded into 40 junks, which were to carry it to Changteh, northern Human, for distribution to various marketing centers.

 HAVANA, Jone 6, - Friends of Antonio San Miguel today endeavor- ed to persuade army authorities to withdraw from the case, asserting that their activities handicapped the efforts to contact his abductors.
 The authorities are energetic, and are fearful that the more than a quarter of a million dollars ransom may be used by radicals to finance armed campaigns against the pres ent government. The attempt to con- tact the kidnapers yesterday failed.

Convicted Killer
Hopes for Appeal
To Save His Life

They questioned him In vain. hoping
to learn Of friends or fraternal or
CARNATIONS which might help. and
then expressed hope the public would
aid.
Edward J. Reilly, chief Of defense
counsel, estimated the cost Of carry
ing the fight through higher courts
at $25, 900.
In q death conviction, however, the
defense IS permitted to ask the court
to have the county pay legal costs, in
GLIDING preparation OF the record.
Egbert RoSecrans, assistant defense
counsel, said such an order probably
would be sought next week.
Need From $500 to $1,000
The financing Of other appeal ex-
penses was what worried the defense
attorneys. Reilly estimated the amount
needed at $500 and G. Lloyd Fisher
fixed it at $1,000.
Hauptmann, pale and restless, paced
his brightly lighted cell while he
talked. The trial had left him worn
out. he said. but he felt AL right"

whole trial." he declared, was the
board in the attic. Why should I

I had a whole pile Of lumber In my
garage?"
State witnesses testified that an
upright in the kidnaper's homemade
ladder once had been part Of the
flooring in Hauptmann'S attic.
Hauptmann was asked whether he
thought the presence of Colonel Lind
bergh had any influence on the jury.
Naturally" he replied.
The New York News IN It's article
said the second mans part in the
crime was not mentioned at the
Hauptmann trial because Of the anx-
iety Of the prosecution that nothing
should be allowed to becloud the issue
OF the ex-German machine gunner,s
guilt"
But" It continued. "the fact that
Hauptmann had an accomplice has
long been known to the department
Of justice, the New York police and
District Attorney Foley Of the Bronx.

THE handkerchief was recovered
