Although Verring's dogs are of Germanic pedigree, they have quickly picked up the great American game End, center i ushes and smashes off tackle are now second-nature to the dogs, Verring boasted.

Si-rrotarv Mellon Taking Real Vacation With Children On Yacht In Mediterranean

Washington. July 14 (United Press Sici.-lury of the Treasury Andrew W.j Mellon, the hardest working official ; of tile government, is taking his fiist real vacation in years. | Somewhere on the Mediterranean Sea, Mellon with his family. Mr. ami Mrs David E. K. Bruce and bis son Paul, are on tho yacht Valentia visit-; Ing’old ports and just drifting. I Mellon has taken a vacation every year but usually he combines business with pleasure. On his previous trips abroad he visited statesmen of foreign nations ami discussed financial problems. This trip is for : pleasure only. | The Secretary decided on the Medi- ' i.errauean voyage in order to have a ! family reunion, to avoid process servj ers and to rest. | His daughter. Mrs. Bruce, has been in Paris and Rome for several years whore her husband has been assigned | in consular service and his son Pau! —

' ■ “Ha. that's a good one,” the youth , 1 said, “Detectives an ddon't know ' the meaning of July 4th clothing and eats —caps and crackers is , what I mean—paper caps and fire j 1 crackers." ~ GOVERNOR DENIES ACCUSATIONS OF I). C. STEPHENSON (COMTINVED rilOH PAGE ONE) son, former grand dragon of the Ku Klux Klan, that he gave Jackson $lO.000 for his primary campaign. The '. iteih was not listed in Jackson’s cam ' i paign statement as required by law | Stephenson has made other similar charges and further documentary evi deuce is expected to be revealed through publication in Indianapoll: newspapers. Confers With Supporters . | The governor arrived from a vaca- . I tlon in Osawatomie. Kansas, late yesJj terday to face the increasing fury of ( I the Indiana political storm. He went 11 directly to his home, leaving his sec- .' rotary to announce there would be no ( official statement forthcoming until ! today, at least. The governor was exI peeled to confer with his supporters on the situation. Rumors of a definite effort to call a special session of the state legislature appealed when an Evansville representative who refused to allow ills name to be used, said he had been “sounded out” on the subject. A special session may be called only by governor or by petition of a majority of the members of the body. Meanwhile, possibility of other in I formation being forthcoming from Stephenson was discussed. The former dragon and self-styled “boss” ol the present state and Indianapolis administrations may be planning tc : offer other evidence to prove his 1 claims in addition to the 32 docu- ' ments now in possession of the In- '! dianapolis Times, a Scripps-Howard newspaper. He is serving a sentence 'jOf life imprisonment at Michigan ’ Vi. y penitentiary in connection with I the (lea h of Madge Oberholtzer. I A list of the documents has been published by the Indianapolis News, land faesmile tepioduction of these documents and other pertinent notes in Stephenson's hands will be continued by the Times. Opponents of Jackson insist, how ever, that a cancelled check for $2,500 which Stephenson said represented an ins'.allment of a SIO,OOO campaign contribution is the most damaging evidence against the governor. Secrecy Surrounds Interview Michigan City, Ind., July^H. — (UP) —What will result from the latest conference between D. C. Stephenson and Prosecutor william H. Remy, i was not indicated in the guarded statements of those who were present and | even the purpose of the interview . was unknown. | This is in contrast to the blast of publicl y that followed Remy's visit here ten days ago. First, it was said that Stephenson had "told all,” and Remy lent encouragement by admitting the interview had been highly satisfactory. Later events, however.

lias been away at college. , I The 73-year-old financial wizard. I virtually alone in the world, living ( 'alone in Washington, planned Uie| irip to become reacquainted with his ; children. Then. too. Mellon is one of the most rued m< n ,:i the country. Being a millionaire and a federal official in charge of the government's finances. 'h( 's bombarded with damage suits ■' of every description. Recently when a process server i called at his office he welcomed the i ma:> with a smil” and remarked "an- ■ cth<r one." Then he laughingly said. ■ "J get these summons about once a : week but they haven’t got me in jail • yet ’’ , Mellon said his vacation this year - would be the best he has taken sime I he was a young man and toured Scott'lard by coach. On that trip, he ex- < p'ained, he rode through Scotland 1 atop a coach, stopping at inns each !' night and sightseeing enroute.

indicated strongly that Stephenson had not cut loose with the sensations that were expected. Publication by the Indianapolis Times of checks and notations followed Wednesday the Indianapolis News scored with a complete, detailed list of all unpublished documents in the possession of the Times. The list was interesting in away, but disappointing. It was interesting because it showed how; Stephenson financed Gov. Ed Jackson's campaign for nomination, and disappointing because it did not suport Stephenson's charges of widespread corruption in the state administration. The only important paper already had been reproduced — the $2,500 chech purporting to have been given to Jackson by Stephenson. In view of these events, it was believed tha't Remy and his aides had gene into conference with Stephenson and Robert H. Moore, his atortney, in an effort to get more documents. But none of the conferees would confirm i this conjecture. o Vikmgs in History • Vikings of the early Middle ages took their name from the fact that they were dwellers alori„ the vlks «• creeks of Scandinavia. They were also known as Norsemen and sea-rev ers. They ravaged the coasts of Eng land and northern Fiance in the Math and ctHil’tries. N<V£* men took im>s ,'f the coaat tountry of France and f -came known a? Normans. o, Old lighting The "Forlorn Hope" associated wlir battles is primarily a military detachment, coniinissb ;led or voluntary, for some especially dangero"-. or desperate service.

Catherine.

The Order of Mules was the name or a secret society organized by farmers in West Virginia and Kentucky, just after the close of the Civil war, to put a stop to horse stealing and other forms of lawlessness. o Prevention of Tuberculosis The death rate in tire United Slates trom tubercfi.osls has fa'ien from 201 to 90 per 100,000 during the past twenty years, which cam-. .1 a great saving of valuable lives nnd suffering. 1 O Gone for His Tools Archeologists in Greece have un earthed a marble bathtub more than 2,500 years old, of which the plumbing Is in [ioor condition.
