Woman Discovers Pearl In Oyster

Yesterday, Mrs. James Gam non of 10 Vermont street went to her favorite market, looked over the Friday delicacies on display and decided that she wanted oysters.
 Came time for getting the Friday night dinner ready and Mrs. Cannon went about her preparations, one of them be- ing the cleaning of the oysters. She cleaned one, two and three, and was on the fourth.
 Then, Mrs. Cannon gasped -gasped again-and from the inside of the shelf she picked out shimmering pearl. It wasn't particularly big, but 1t was a real jearl.
 Today a jewe1er was to look at the pearl and estimate its value.

 Commission Named.
 That was done yesterday. From Hyde Park, the president an- nounced appointment of three att torneys, a mine union official and a newspaper editor to the five $10,- 00O-a-year board membership.
 They are: George E. Acret, Cali fornia attorney; Walter H. Maloney Kansas City, Mo-, attorney; Char les F. Hosford. Jr., Pittsburgh at- torney, coal operator, and former coal code authority member; c. E. Smith, Fairmount, W. V., news paper editor; and Jercy Tetlow, Ohio. president of the United Mine Workers.
 Operators participating in the joint conference, unable to identity Acret and Maloney, openly charg- ed the appointments were pre- dominantly political. John L. Lew is, United Mine Workers Union president. however said, "the coal board seems to be composed of very high class men,"
 What the new commission can do in the wage controversy is prob- lematical. Sponsors of the Guffey bill claimed its assurance of price stability would enable producers to guage operating costs to arrive at a decisions on wages.

carrying high explosive and shrap- mel, will burst in the vicinity of the oncoming plane. The "timing" is done by twirling a small dial on the base of the shell, similar to the dial on wall safe.
 All this is land equipment, and anti-aircraft service officers of the army are confident they can either ward off any air raid or bring the raiders to earth.
 The navy has similar equipment, but there is some doubt whether the accuracy and effectiveness of the equipment would be affected by the tons of steel of the ship on which 1t Is located, and by the mo- ton of the ships.
 Other naval equipment which has not had try-out in wartime conditions includes submarine de- tector apparatus. It works, under water, much the same manner as the anti-aircraft detector.
 Harbor Dcfenses
 Then there are various harbor defense "detector" rays which have been developed secretly and have shown almost uncanny results in peace-time tryouts. One such ray, tested recently on the upper New Jersey coast, was coupled to a powerful searchlight with a trig- ger attached as it would be on a gun. A coastguard vessel, with all lights out, maneuvered off the coast. The ray Spotted" the ves- sel, trained the searchlight upon it, and when the trigger was press ed threw 8 powerful beam of light, which lighted up the mid sections of the vessel almost every time.
 Other equipment which army and navy officials believe may be tried out if war comes to the Mediterranean includes radio con- trol of airplanes and some "in- ventions" which are still consider ed here as fantastic, such as the mystery ray" which 1t is claimed will halt an airplane in flight by polarizing the ignition system; the so-called Death days" and new and mysterious gases.
 Not Taken Seriously
 Military men do not look seri- ously upon these latter, however. They believe that most or all of them are still in the experimental stages, and probably will be for some years to come.
 On the other equipment, such as airplanes, anti-aircraft equipment, anti-submarine equipment, and the various detector rays and sound detectors, the attention of mili- tary and naval leaders here would be centered. On the performance of these under fire would depend the direction of much of the mili- tary and naval development of the United States in the immediate fu- ture.

Pape, is to be named deputy controller. Sherwood Row land is the g.o.p. candidate for controller and ordinarily would have the naming of his own staff However, as Publisher Pape is the dictator" of 6the party he has made it emphatic that his son IS to go in as deputy controller.
 Finger in Finances
 In this way the publisher of the American and Republican will have a finger directly on the fi- nances of the city and there will be no chance of any of his sub jects "putting over anything" on him.
 stephen J. Winston, the repub- lican-independent democratic cam didate for city clerk, is also being besieged with hints from his vari- ous workers already. It Is known that a scramble is on for the of- flee of assistant city clerk. but Mir. Winston is expected to take his orders from Publisher Pape, also.

 The plaintiff awoke with a start and attempted to stamp out the fire by Jumping up and down but this only aggravated the condition and his foot was burned 50 that blisters resulted. He was laid up for long time and was under Q doctors care. The plaintiff claims he suffers from loss of sleep and lost weight As result of the ex- perience.
 Further, the plaintiff charges he has a disfiguring scar on his foot and contractures which effect the function of the foot.
 Slated for October
 The suit is returnable to the common pleas court the first Tuesday of October, according to the complaint drawn by Attorney William K. Lawlor.
 The "hot foot" prank has been a popular joke played on number less victims in the city, and 1t is considered highly humorous by the jokesters when the victim be- gins to jump about as the leather on the shoe becomes hot. Now that a civil action has been started as a result of this trick, 1t might make some of the jokesters a bit dubious about trying the stunt in the future.
