Mikes Current

Marshall-Mike, the tame musk
rat who lived at Mickey Leedom's
farm near Garvin, has gone the
way of all flesh. The whole troub-
lie was that Mike was too much
of a pest for his own good. 1t
wasn't bad when he hoped in a
pail of milk intended for the calves,
or when each night he would make
a nest of corn husks in the Leedom
car between the engine and the
hood, but when he started knaw-
ing the electric wiring, things were
being carried just too farm, so that
was the end of Mike.
His Heart Belongs to Nanny
But Will Sell His Body
Duluth-A Duluth man has offer

for $500. He needs the money to
make a down payment on a home
The 44-year-old gentleman made
his offer through a classified ad
appearing in a local paper. He
asked his name be withheld, and
said he will order his body turned
over to any medical group or in
stitution upon payment, at the
present time, of the sum. II fig

Broke The Chain
Got His Wife Back
Arlington-Here's something new
in the line of chain letters, started
in the hope of bringing happiness
to all tired business men. Unlike
most chains this one does not cost
you any money. Simply send a
copy of this letter to five male
friends, then bundle up your wife
and send her to the fellow whose
name heads the list. When your
name works up to the top you will
in turn receive 1878 gorgeous
femmes. Have faith, do not let
the chain break. One man broke
the chain and got his own wife
back.
A Windy Alibi-
Hibbing-There's one young chap
who has his own ideas about the
quality of the wind as she blows
in Hibbing. Recently, police re-
ceived a report that boy had shot
out the street light on the corner
Of Thirty-first street and Fourth
Avenue west with a % air rifle.
Juvenile officer Al Strelow inter
viewed the most likely suspect who
denied the crime. He told Strelow,
II shot at the pole, but the wind
blew the bullet up toward the light
and smashed it."

BY LILLIAN COX ATHEY,

Many have mistaken the myrtle
warbler for Audubon's, for the rea-
son that both have yellow patches
Of plumage. What you must fix in
your mind in order to make a quick
field Identification is the broad
white wing patch on Audubon's s
warbler. Then also remember that
these two warblers have a very
different territory and you would
not be seeing them out of their
range unless you happened to be
along at the time Of the autumn
migration.
The recognized distribution Of
Audubon's s warbler is western North
America, north to British Columbia,
east to the western border of the
Great Plains. The breeding places

that the mother is the sole con-

the father often assumes his share
OF the work as well as seeking food
and doing sentinel duty. Warblers

which surely means, better luck

By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ALBUQUERQUE, N. Mex, Feb.
2.-Government attorneys attempted
to draw from witnesses proof that
New Mexico w. p. A. workers were
hired and fired for the political ad-
vantage Of IS persons on trial in
Federal District Court for alleged
fraud in administration of the
States relief.
Defendants not officially connected
with the w. P. A., among them two
close relatives of United States SEN
ator Dennis Chavez, had frequent
access to the Albuquerque zone Of
fees and were influential in the
placement Of workers, witnesses tes-
titled.
The trend of the testimony, at
first primarily concerned with al
legged threats and intimidation of
w. p. A. workers by obscure project
foreman and supervisors, appeared
swinging toward "higher-ups," who
the Government charges were di-
recting the political manipulation Of
relief rolls.
Says Miller Telephoned Often.

of Senator Chavez and ousted as
sistant United States district at
torney, telephoned the Albuquerque
zone Office assignment clerk as many
as 40 or IL" times a day, Edna
Brady, former secretary to E. A.
Rose, zone supervisor, testified late
yesterday.
The office also was visited regu-
larly by Mrs. Anita Tafoya, the Sem
ator's sister, who Miss Brady said
came "at least three or four times
week" to confer with Joseph De
Almond, at that time job assign
ment clerk.
Mrs. Tafoya again was brought
into the testimony by another wit
ness, Mrs. Sadie Lennox, who told
the jury she was good friend

New Quoddy Studies
Are Recommended
Nv the Associated Press.


The Senate Commerce Committee
recommended yesterday that Fed
eral agencies renew studies of the
Passamaquody tidal power project
in Maine, but begged down in con-
troversy over similar proposal
for the Florida ship canal.
The senators approved resolutions
calling on Army Engineers and the
Federal Power Commission an re-
port on the $37 100000 tideharness-
ing development. This decision
apparently represented compro-
mise with Senator Vandenberg,
Republican of Michigan, who had
sought to sidetrack both Quoddy
and the canal.
Revival of the two abandoned
projects was asked January II by
President Roosevelt in letters to
the Commerce Committee and the
House Rivers and Harbors Com
mittee.
The senate group debated the
canal issue at length and then ran
into a parliamentary snarl that
delayed action until next wednes-

Adequate Substitute
To Butternut Car
Line Held Essential
Manor Park Citizens
Told Extra Buses
Promised Not Sufficient

The Manor Park Citizens Asso-
citation last night reaffirmed its OPP
position to the application of the
Capital Transit Co. to abandon the
Butternut street car line, unless ade-
uuate increased bus service is pro-
vided the Manor Park area.
George A. Corbin, who presented
the resolution, declared that the
offer of the transit company to add
four more southbound and four
more northbound buses to serve the
area would be insufficient.
The association also requested
that the District Commissioners
take immediate action to widen
Sherman avenue NV. and Thir-
tenth street south of Spring Road
to Monroe street NV.
To protect local taxpayers inter-
est in the schools, the group acted
favorably on resolution presented
by A. Somerville, jr., urging the in
clusion of an appropriation in the
District budget to keep all school
equipment in good condition.
The association also requested
that the Board of Education install
a wooden floor instead of the pres
ent cement one in the former play
room at the Whittier School, where
the group meets. In addition, the
association asked for the installa-
ton of a proper heating system and
lighting facilities in the room, point
ing out that it is now being used
as a classroom.
