TORTURE ENDED
 FOR CULT VICTIM
Taken Down From Cross at DaWn-HiS Condition
 Is Not to Be Known

Albuquerque, N. M, April H. CUP).-At dawn today the tortured body of a man was cut down from cross high on some hilltop and taken either to a secret grave or to the temple of the LOS HermanoS de Penitente." Thus ended 40-days of self torture by the strange penitente cult of New Mexico, Colo rado, Utah and Arizona. It is the last day of Lent, and they will quit rolling on cactus beds, beating them- selves, cutting their flesh and other wise approaching death as closely as possible.
 Victim Is Honor Man
 If the "cirsto," the man bound to the cross-a sought-after honor to all young cult memberships a spark of life left, he will be taken to the temple, the "morado," and nursed back to whatever health he may hope to attain. Burial at the mountain top awaits the body fl death resulted from the weird rites Dead or alive, he will be honored by all penitentes. A horrible fate awaits any cult member who re- veals the identity of the "cristo.'
 The Lenten festivals of the penitentes were almost over today Tomorrow, upon completion of the celebrations of the reincarnation they will return to their holsehold to nurse their wounds.
 When they have returned home tomorrow, spent from packing heavy crosses up mountain sides on feet stuck in shoes filled with sharp pebbles and with circulation cut off in their legs by wire bindings their celebration will be over until next February.

and its crew. After the ironclads
showed their mettle in that epochal
battle between the Monitor and the
Merrimac in Hampton Roads, it was
clear that the day of the wooden
ships was over.
But the period from the close Of the
Civil War until the new Navy" was
born in 1888 was sad one for our
fighting ships. 1t is likely that never
before or since in American history
has the Navy been at such low ebb
as in those two decades. And that
condition is revealed graphically by
the photographs.
Although photography was we'll de-
veloped by the time of the Spanish
American War, little attention seems
to have been paid to the camera art
as it referred to fighting ships. The
Civil War file is far more complete,
far more graphic than that covering
a conflict which came 20 years later.
However, there are some good shots
showing Spanish vessels in various
stages of destruction-and the Olym-
pia, Dewey's flagship, is there with
colors flying.
OF World War and current photo
graphs there is real plentitude. Every
phase of naval work and equipment is
pictured; priceless heritage for the
future.

that this system, once perfected, will
be major factor in fighting crime.
1t will make it infinitely more diff
cult for the criminal to escape, and
it will facilitate the reporting Of
crimes. It stands to reason that when
an officer can carry on a conversa-
ton with his superiors at headquar-
tiers while something important is
under way, that situation can be met
with definitely increased efficiency"
THE equipment as it stands today

casting station on Wheels" as Lieut..
Kelley described it. But the trick
was to make it work. and that entailed
months of painstaking study and ex-
perimenting. hours of burning the
midnight Oil for Lieut.. Kelley. AS
the experiments progressed frequent
tests were made, Lieut.. Kelley cruis-
ing about in his test car from the
tenth precinct, attempting to estab-
lish communication with the chiefs

the value of building up picture rec
ord of the American Navy. Beginning
almost from scratch less than two
decades ago, the collection now is one
of the finest in the world. 1t has been
gathered from innumerable sources.

THE nucleus for the present collec-

which had been sent to the depart

of Navy men, and by few other in
terested persons. However, it was not
until Secretary Daniels administra-

hard-fought engagements known to
every school child.
In addition, the section has proved
to be a godsend to the makers of mo-
ton pictures which include naval
scenes In this connection. too, the
extensive library of the Navy Depart
ment. under the direction of Capt.
D. w. Knox. has been invaluable.
He often is consulted as the movie
makers strike increasingly for veri-
similtude in their sea dramas.
Perhaps the most interesting of all
the photographs in this extensive
collection are those of individuals.
As one leafs through the files the
faces and forms of countless officers
and men who have made American
naval history reappear. Hopkins,
Jones, Perry, Lawrence, Decatur, Far
ragut, Dewey, Sims all are there
and many, many more. Bradys pic
lures of ships crews are particularly
good. This cameraman not only was
the first news photographer but he
also was among the very greatest OF
all time. He had an uncanny knack
of making his subjects seem almost
about to come alive. This despite the
fact that he worked with the crudest
of plates and equipment.
Especially fascinating are pictures
Of Jack Tars of the "old Navy some
of whom were still in active service
during the period from 1850 to 1870.
They we're sailors of the era OF
wooden ships and iron men," No
hastily converted landsmen these, but
men bred to the sea from boyhood
and with a love of fine ships in their
hearts.
Brady made some pictures around
1860 which show a few of these hardy
men aboard the numbering wooden
battle wagons then in vogue. White
bearded, sharp-eyed, broad-shoul-
dered. some already had followed the
sea for nearly half a century. Men
such as these made up the crews

The rapidly growing file of cur

of Americas determination that the

more graphically than works can

as the day of unveiling had been
christened, but rain and clouds could
not dampen the city's enthusiasm. Let
a newspaper Of the day tell the story
in its flowing rhetoric:
'At daybreak the city stirred nimbly
and flung million colors to the heavy
air. Then streamed the people: con-
vergent rivers OF life hurrying and
sweeping through a thousand chan
nels to the path of the pageant, there
eddying or gathered or running
counter to the onward tide, till the
great thoroughfares overflowed and
billows Of humanity surged crosswise
and splashed sprays Of small boys to
every ledge and cornice and accessible
foothold till the very lamposts were
crowded and the doomed telegraph
poles creaked with their burden. There
was no solemnity."
Every available bit of roof space
was jammed. Grand stands were full.

a good vantage point, but the mayor
sat in his office, and If he sulked
bit he should not be blamed. No one
had remembered to send him ticket!
