DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT MONDAY, AUGUST 22, 1927.

' EXECUTION SET FOR 3 MINUTES AFTER MIDNIGHT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) a stay. The lawyer spoke with the chief justice over the telephone last night but the connection was poor and he was unable to ascertain if Taft would consider the proposal of meeting the attorney at the border. Taft asked that Musmanno send him a telegram stating his proposal and said he would reply immediately. Elias Field, associate counsel, remained in Boston to receive reports from Hill and Musmanno and, all else sassing, planned to appear before Governor Fuller and plead for a stay of 'execution. In spite of all last-hour efforts, the feeling here was that the Italian anarchists woujd die tonight for the double murder they are alleged to have committed more than seven years ago. All Calm In New York New York, Aug. 22. —(U. P.) —As the hour drew' near for the execution of Nicola Sacco and Bartojomeo Vanzetti, ail was calm and quiet in New York today in strong contrast to the tenseness and bitterness so clearly discernible on the day before the exepiration of the former respite. The Sacco-Vanzetti emergency committee called a strike of workers for 3 p. m. but it was doubtful if many unions would respond. Conservative unions sent a delegation to Boston to appeal to Governor Fuller “in the name of 800,000 workers in New York’’ to stay the execution. Police On Alert Los Angeles. Aug. 22. —(U. P.) — | Double police squads were on the alert today for Sacco-Vanzetti demonstrations fqflowing an appeal for a city wide strike by members ot the I. W. W. Denver. Colo., Aug. 22. —(U. P.) — Local I. W. W.’s last night sent Governor Fuller of Massachusetts a telegram urging him to grant Sacco and Vanzetti another reprieve. Borah May Aid Defense Spokane, Wash., Aug. 22. —(U. P.) —Senator William E. Borah, Repn., Idaho, told the United, Press today he I would go east to assist in the defense of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti if they were granted another stay of execution. Offers Self As Substitute Washington. Aug. 22. —(IT. P.) — ■ Her offer to sit in the electric chair ) in place of Sacco and Vanzetti has 1 cost Mrs. Lenora H. Jones, 59-year-|old Quaker mother, her job as a to-ur- | isf guide in the capitol building. “She has been indefinitely susI pended,” said J. J. McGrain, deputy sergeant-at-arms of the senate, “be- , cause she talked too much.” Hundreds of tourists have been guided through the house and senate chambers of the capitol by "Mother” Jones. During congress’ sessions, she has acted as teacher for the sen- ! ate pages. She is from Wichita, Kas.. where her husband was formerly a professor in Friends College. He is now an invalid and Mrs. Jones has been working here to support him and a daughter. Chicago Takes Precaution Chicago, Aug. 22. —(U. P.) —Precautions toward averting possible demonstrations by Sacco-Vanzetti sympathizers were being made by police here today as the hour of electrocution approached. Although an attempt to enlist labor 1 unions in a general strike failed, Chief of Police Michael Hughes said he would take no chances. The failure of the general strike movement came through refusal of the labor federation to consider a resolution for such a protest at yesterday's business session. Mass Meeting In Winnipeg Winnipeg. Manitoba, Aug. 22. —(U. P.) —More than 2,000 Winnipeg workers, led by communists, yesterday held a mass meeting in Market Square here and denounced the Massachusetts supreme court and United States Federal uathorities for deny- | ing Sacco and Vanzetti new avenues I of escape from the ejectric chair. o Governor Delays Naming Os C. F. Miller’s Successor Indianapolis, Aug. 22. —(U. P.) — Returning to the state house today I after a ten day vacation spent with his family at the Dunes, Governor Jackson delayed appointing a succes- | sor to Charles F. Miller in the office of superintendent of public instrucI tion pending an official ruling form Attorney General Arthur Gilliom. | | Pliney olfatd, secretary to the governor. presented the request for an j opinion to Deputy Attorney General Edward White. Gilliom is at his summer home at Long Beach, Michigan. but before leaving he expressed ) unofficially his stand on the matter.' It is expected the official opinion will be forthcoming tonight or Tuesday, ' White said.

HEDDA HOYT TELLS ....about... FASHIONS for WOMEN Bl Hedda Hoyt (United Press Fashion Editor) New York, Aug. 22.—(UP)— A man may relish a rough-smeared mouth but a cold cream eyelid ruins his appetite for romance! Cold wreain has been the blight of many a happy romance. The business iff keeping beautiful is a losing one unless carried on In private. AH men like to come home to a well-kept, clean home but the male is rare who likes to • be around when the lemon oil is being applied. Men admire wives who resort to artificial means of beauty, whether they are aware of the artificially or not, but they don't like to see women applying the grease-paint. Faces in the cocoon stage have no attraction for them. The clever woman conceals her weapons. Cosmetics are listed among the most poignant of feminine weapons in this day and age. Romance, with women is ot stronger stuff. A man can wield a shaving stick over his face producing a Santa Claus effect without driving his wife into hysterics. She’ll remove the soap-soaked whidkers which he parked on her vanity case without turning a hair. Man, on the other hand, wants to see the reconditioned article at ail times. A mas caro-ed teardrop fills him with dismay. A man will grow a two-week's beard for the fun of it. But if his wife’s bob starts neckward he'll hie her to the barber. He feels that he can get on an old army shirt a pair of grimey fishing trousers and an old fedora and start out on a vacation. But, friend wife, must have on proper sporting clothes. No old calico for hers! It may be well enough to hold a man’s love by culinary art. Facts prove, however, that the woman who keeps him blindfolded to her artificiality does a better job of holding. A kiss from a rouged mouth is better If one hasn’t seen the applying of the lipstick. A cold-creamed pillow may dispel crow’s feet, but it is a knock-out blow to marital bliss. Passenger Plane Crashes Near London; Man Killed London, Aug. 22. —(UP)—A Fokker twin-engined monoplr.ne in the Dutch air service crashed at Seven Oaks, 22 miles southeast of here, shortly after leaving the Croydon airdome at 8 a. m. today.

Eleven persons were abroad, including the crew consisting ot the well known pilot, Van Dij, and the mehcanic.

Tlte money if appropriated ’ would be spent to tell the farmer that corn borer can be absolutely destroy1 3d. This is untrue and unfair in Wal--1 lace’s opinion. "in Indiana we have never told the farmer that the corn borer can be ' stamped out entirely, the state entohope for is to check its ravages and mologist continued- “The best we can ‘ this can be done with proper co-oper--1 ation.” As Airplanes Are Drafty Skirts Will Drop Lower I New Yoik, Aug. 22. — (UP) — “As i- iong as the airplane remains a drafty i and poorly heated vehicle of travel, ! an era of long skirts for women is r highly probable,” said Jean Charles . Worth, famous Paris couturier in an I interview with the Paris representa- . tive of the Woman's Home CompanI ion. “There is every possibility of this,” le continued, “for fashions have al- , ways followed transportation developi ments. The first shortening of the - skirt came with the bicycle, after old carriages had necessitated longer and warmer lower garments. The excel'ent heating of railway cariages and automobiles'were reflected in shorter skirts. Now, witii airplaning certain to become a fad skirts that cover the legs and feet may be reinstated, until the airplane becomes the comfortable vehicle that the limousine now is.” Theatre In Joliet Held Up And Robbed Joliet, Hi., Aug. 22. — (UP) —Three bandits held up the Rialto Theater early today, escaping with $6,000. Roy Rogan, manager, was kidnapped and taken part way to Chicago where the bandits released him. •Rogan and several clerks were counting the day’s receipts when the bandits entered They were ordered to- face the wall while the robbers stuffed the money into their pockets. Police believe they were Chicago gangsters. "* ... .. ,-' Says His Rheumatism Is Entirely Gone Found Quick Relief After 18 Years of Suffering. “I suffered with rheumatism for 18 years without getting more than temporary relief. My feet and legs would swell until at times I could hardly move, and the pain was awful. I couldn’t even take off my coat without help. Then I heard of Viuna and bought a bottle. From the first I saw it was helping me, and so I kept right on, and now I am pleased to say my rheumatism is all gone and I feel fine, and work at the factory every day. I feel my present health is all due to Viuna.”—Col. Bedwell, 605 West Franklin St., Hartford City, Ind.
