A total of 418 home runs have been made in both major leagues thus far this s ason, fifty more than at a corresponding date last year.

Jacobs, the mother of two adopted daughters, receives thousands of letters daily tom all parts of the country, askug advice and foresight on every -onceivable subj-ect pertaining to human troubles. Will my wife come back to me?” “Is my husband untrue?” "Will I be employed soon?" These are just a few of the types that flow in daily. It is alleged that the madam has never to her knowledge, failed to correctly predict the answers. The madam has been chosen as the advance delegate of the fifth annual convention of the Magician's Asociation to he held soon. H>r daily broadcasts are in the interest of the coming event, advertising to millions her uncanny ability as part of the program to be staged at the Shrine Auditorium in Fort Wayne. Her intuitive discernment of the future was first discovered when at the age of seven she predicted the death of a baby sister whose health seemed perfect and within the hour she died. The madam explains her intrutive feeling as of one who is In a room filled with roses, the degree of intensity of the scent determining the elapse of time before the catastrophe. She is governed likewise in malting ether predictions., if, wh%n asked regarding a situation, she feels suddenly depressed, the answer is pessimistic; if the feeling is one of elation, the best can safely be predicted. When asked regarding the future of prohibition and the outcome in sports, the madam seemed evasive. o • Miss Alice Allweia of Shelby, 0„ is spending Ihe week in this city visiting with relatives and friends.
