They agreed to LIGHTS OF NEW YORK By WALTER TRUMBULL Police Commissioner Edward P. Mul- rooney is a rather quiet man, but, when he is in the mood, one of the most interesting talkers I know. He has a keen, observing mind, a thorough understanding of police problems and the relation between the force and the public, a tremendous knowledge of human nature, and a grand sense of humor, Why shouldn't he have with a name such as Mulrooney? The po- licing of a city such as New York calls for a commissioner with strength and judgment, and Mulrooney has both. I imagine he can be pretty firm and cold on occasion; but you can’t talk to the man long without hearing the beat of the warm Irish heart in him, You may suspect that I like Mul- rooney, and I do. Maybe it is because we both are old-fashioned enough to like big league baseball better than midget golf and agree that the big Frenchman, Larry Lajoie, was the most graceful player we ever saw. wow» : “Who would have supposed,” says Commissioner Mulrooney, “that you ever would see a Tom Thumb golf course on Fiftieth street? It makes you think that Manhattan real estate may not be so valuable after all. But they are keeping these courses open a little late.

A. Mitchell, scientific head of the American naval observatory expe- dition, caught manifestations of the heretofore unknown wave length, which showed itself at 6,770 ang- strom units, An angstrom unit is one-hundred-millionth of a centimeter. The data is expected to be useful in computing movement of the moon and in forecasting future eclipses. Coronal disturbances on both the east and west edges of the sun were recorded. These appeared to have had their origin in eruptive promi- nences. The detail shown in the spectrographic lines of the coronium (chief constituent gas of the corona) did not resemble that exhibited by the prominences. Changes in coronal forms shown by HHH HEH HHH HH HAVING YOUR FORTUNE TOLD By THOMAS ARKLE CLARK Dean of Men, University of Illinois. ¢ Very few of us are satisfied with the present. We should like to see ahead, to kmow what is going to happen to us next week or E next year, or ten # years from now. Are we going to be rich, or prominent, or influential? Are love and romance and beauty to be our lot, or is fail- ure and insignifi- i-cance and poverty and disgrace wait- : ing for us just at the turn of the road? It Is our keen interest in these things which makes us eager to know what the cards or the clairvoyant or STAR HOCKEY PLAYER Frank “King” Clancy, former star hockey player of the Ottawa Senators and whe was purchased by the Teron- said to be the highest price ever paid for a National league stick-wielder.

Now I have no faith in phrenology or palmistry or the pbysiognomist who pretends that by looking you over he can predict just when you will marry and whom and tell whether you'll make good as a machinist or a manicurist. My better judgment tells me that these p are all fakes, who know no mo pout the future than I do, and not so much about my own past, at least—but to me they are nevertheless interesting. I like to hear what they have to say and to try to discover why they say it. I don’t believe it; I don’t bank on it, but it gives me a pleasant sensation to be told about the delight- ful things I may expect in the near future. There was a phrenologist came to town when I was a small boy. For twenty-five cents he agreed to tell me what nature had in mind for me when I was created. He looked me over, ran his hand over the irregularities of my cranium and proceeded to picture a great future for me. Law, as I now recall, was the profession in which 1 was destined to shine because he de- tected in me great powers of speech. Oratory, spell-binding, holding an audi- ence breathless was to be my forte. I knew, and I have no doubt he did also, that I had no particular talent as a public speaker and that if I ever learned at all it would be with much agony of mind and body, but never- theless I enjoyed the words he uttered. There is nothing that dispels depres- sion so quickly as to have some one look you over, or hold your hand and from the scars and callouses, and wrinkles which decorate its surface, discover the fact that there is really something to you, that fortune, and success, and a great and glorious fu- ture are waiting for you if you will only hitch up your belt or suspenders, if vou are wearing suspenders at the time, and push right ahead to what you are entitled to. These tellers are wonderful encouragers; they pat you on the back; they picture for you a successful future, and a little patting on the back seldom does a man any harm, As I said before, I know it is all a ake, that any man with an iota of sense will give no eredence to what the fortune teller says, but just the same whenever I see a sign announc- ing, “Your future foretold,” I can scarcely resist the temptation to go in and see what the faker will say.

These disturbances could be traced to as far as 100,000 miles beyond the sun's surface, and, as far as is known, never have been observed before.

Beautiful coronal streamers, with especially interesting strawberry- shaped domes, were conspicuous on prey il cameras. The data indicates the totality was of 93.9 seconds’ duration.

He can tell you stories that would keep you listening for hours, and he always holds his suspense and drops his curtain on the big thrills. I asked him whether good detective work—he once was head of the de- tective bureau—was not mainly per- severance, courage and common sense. He sald a fine detective must have more than that, one of his greatest qualifications being the ability to put himself in the other man’s place and, from that angle, figure his line of thought, He illustrated his point. * * =» “We got word,” said Mulrooney, “that an embezzler, who was badly wanted, was heading for New York on a railroad with its terminal in New Jersey. That meant he would have to come in on a train ferry, so we cov- ered them all. Those were the days of horses; it was before taxicabs had come in. We had received such short notice that by the time the detective who went to the Twenty-third street ferry got there, the boat he wanted to meet was in and the passengers gone, He knew all the hackmen, but that wasn’t going to get him any- thing. They were a tough lot and it was not in their code to help a cop. Still he asked them if they had driven anywhere a man such as he described. No, they had seen no such man. What with handling bags and the confusion of a boat crowd, they had not time to take note of people they drove. * * =» “It was then,” continued Mulrooney, “that the man showed real qualities as a detective. “‘T'm sorry! he exclaimed. ‘I cer- tainly did want to get that fellow. It's a shame he got away.’ “‘What did he do? asked one of the hackmeg. “The detective knew that if he ex- plained the man made off with a lot of dough the hackmen would wish him all the luck in the world, so he used a bit of imagination. * * 9 “‘The dirty skunk! said the hack- man. ‘Now that I come to think of it, A girl may refuse a man because she feels sure he will propose again; but a widow never takes such chances. She's through gambling. I do remember a man like that one you describe. The driver who took him isn't back yet, but he'll be back in a minute and we'll find out where he went. You wait. “So the detective waited. Sure enough, the driver returned and all the hackmen gathered around him, as eager as the detective for news of his fare, When he heard the details, he took the detective in his hack and made good time to a hotel. There was the man, who soon was on his way to the police station. The hackman cer tainly had done thelr bit in the cap- ture, but they had acted under a slight- ly mistaken impression, “You see,” concluded Mulrooney, “the detective hadn't mentioned em- bezzlement. He told them that ths man had murdered his old motker ard cut off her head with a razoz.” (©. 1930, Bell Syndicate,) CEREMONIAL BEAUTY The soft texture of velvet serves to set off the regal beauty of this eve- ning ensemble.

D.—Boxing has been added to the curiculum of the North- ern State Teachers’ college, Mohicans Take “Warpath” of Whites Norwich, Conn.—The last of the Mohicans are on the warpath. They have fared forth to fight what they term eneroachment of the white man on their hallowed precincts and they have armed themselves with the legal weapons of their pale faced brethren instead of with the more de- structive instruments of their aborig- inal forebearers. The Mohicans, or rather their de- scendants, have brought suit in Su- perior court against the state of Con- necticut, its attorney general, the city and town of Norwich and others, de- manding $1,000,000 for the alleged desecration of a small Indian burial ground near here, in which the body of the great sachem, Chief Uncas, sup- posedly is buried. Edyth B. Gray and others, who de- scribe themselves as heirs of the great Uncas, charge the defendants with preventing them from continuing to use the burial ground as a cemetery, that monuments there have been de- stroyed or removed, and that the so- called reservation has been cut up into building lots. All told there are not more than 100 descendants of the tribe about which James Fenimore Cooper wove such fantastic and romantic tales. None of these are full blooded, vir- tually all being white mixed. They live on what they call “the reserva- tion,” a small plot of land at Mohe- gan, on the west bank of the Thames river four miles from here. In reality, it is not a reservation, for it is not under federal or state supervision. The burial ground involved in the suit is a 16 acre plot. It is studded with several gravestones, one of which marks the supposed last resting place of Uncas. The noted chieftain’s grave is marked by an about seven feet face of one side “Uncas.” The obelisk has an interesting his- tory. Its base was laid in 1833 in the presence of President Andrew Jackson and a few members of his cabinet, who journeyed by stage coach to Nor- wich especially for the occasion. Then, obelisk monument high. Across the is the inscription it seemed, the Norwichites forgot about finishing the memorial until the fall of 1840, when the money to com- plete it was collected at a Harrison- Tyler campaign meeting. Finally, on July 4, 1842, the obelisk was raised over the base. Sheep were first brought to America by the Spaniards under Coronado.

Byrd was in the city the human side of the distinguished guest was plain. ly displayed. As the procession moved along, a Boy Scout in all hig glory drew up on a motorcycle and saluted, as only a Boy Scout can, and offered to Admiral Byrd the greet- ings of the scouts of the city. Further along the line of march an urchin was watching for his hero, and when he spied him, with a wave of his grimy hand as a salute, he called out: “Hello there, Dickie.” Governor Leslie, fearful that Byrd's dignity might be offended, apologized with the words, “Training certainly shows, doesn’t it?” Byrd said: “Yes, I guess it does, but I don't know but what I'm for the dirty-faced kid, after all, for they’re all boys under the skin and his greeting was surely spontaneous.” —Detroit Free Press, Carry Your Medicine In Your Handbag 35 Our Vegetable Compound is also sold in chocolate coated tab- lets, just as effective as the liquid form.
