Leopold and Loeb, the two boys who escaped the gallows when Judge Caverly gave his decision two weeks ago have tired of. life in the Joliet prison and are urging their attorney Clarence Darrow to have them transferred to an insane asylum and then freed.

Face to Face With HIPOLITO LAZORA THE SPANISH TENOR (By Joe Mitchell Chapple) At a reception given at the Hotel Plaza it was easy to understand why Mascagni had expressly written and created "11 Piccolo Marat’’ for the Spanish tenor who appeared in seven-ty-two performances of the opera in Europe and South America. For three years Hipolito Lazaro was with the Metropolitan Opera Company, leaving four years ago for Rome to appear in Masagni's new opera when he also created the title role of “La Parislna” from the book written by Gabriele D'Annunzio. Born in Barcelona and having added fresh laurels to Spanish musical artistry, it was natural that Hipolito Lazaro should be called by the composer Arregui to Madrid to appear in I the opera "Yolanda”. Four new operas in four years are certainly a record unparalleled for a [single tenor. Called to Italy recently 'to create another composition. “Cena IBeffe," by Giordano, the composer of “Andrea Chenier,” to be presented at La Scala would sem to mark Hipolito as a premier tenor for launching new operas. In a number of tours throughout America the extensive repertoire of operas and songs which he sings in various languages Has [made him one of Uncle Sam’s popullar concert artists. Now Lazro has z become a real American and has taken out his nturalization papers. His little daughter. Orland, aged five, born in New York, is being trained by her father Ito become a great singer. At his [home in New York I saw her with her father listening with profound ati tention as he practices. Intentionally he would strike a wrong note and then Orlanda would quickly correct her distinguished daddy. I>azaro has been given the title of "Comendador.” high commander of the Crown of Italy, and many others honors, including the Crown of Alphonse. The newspapers of his own native Spain hail him as “The Great Tenor of the Century’’ and he is asking them to divide the honors with America, his adopted country. Hipolito Lazaro has made a conquest of his own Spain. Italy, Europe 'and South America, but he insists ' that his one ambition is to be a part

1 ment. Perhaps it's a dnagerous con- ' dition of affairs. . 1 It is reported that a certain gentleman is busy just now circulating false statements concerning Dr. McCulloch. Permit us to say that we know the r s gentleman personally and can vouch that he is a high class and splendid ;1 citizen, whom you can trust in every n _ way and whose biography is one of , which he and his friends are proud. |t There is not a single blot upon his name anywhere. Look him up and >6 you will he convinced. Aside from g that he is a high class business man. |f strictly honest and very capable. He (J] wants to serve you and if elected he . will give every minute of his time and Ki every ounce of his strength to do so. McCulloch is a safe man to elect to st the high position of governor of Indit. ana. 4- ■ 0 Please remember that straw votes tl . can be made to show whatever you t want them to prove and that practic • ally every newspaper and magazine , e whch is conducting a "straw election' n desires most 'of all.

No r would the Chicago Tribune ic. the Fort Wayne News or the other re papers. There is nothing discourag rg ing in the outlook for democratic sue ic- cess and with the proper effort a great m-i victory is in sight. With the election as lof McCulloch in Indiana and Doune in hey in Ohio conceded, there is muct os, encouragement throughout the middlt lite west. It remains only for the demo to carry on to November 4th.
