With eleven atop* between Washington and London, the flight will tack the spectacular angle* of a non-stop dash But there are plan* which place this projected flight in a cla»* by it»elf, chiefly the division of labor aboard. Chief pilot will be Colonel Hutchinson, assisted by Peter Redpath, navigator, formerly associated with Harold Gatty of round-the-world fame. John Ruff, eeteran mechanic, will be along to care for the motor*. Mr*. Hutchinson, beside* the housekeeping chores, will devote several hour* each day to tutoring the children She doe* this on land. She doe* it in the air. The children have never been to school and have never had another teacher. The coming trip, according to Mr*. Hutchinson, will be conducted as a regular course of study for Kathryn and Janet Lee. The route will be through the maritime Province*, Labrador, Greenland, Iceland, Faroe Islands and Scotland. Having reached Europe, the "Flying Family" will hop, by easy stages, to Pari*, Berlin, Rome, Madrid and Nuremberg, Bavaria, where Kathryn and Janet Lee want to watch the making of the famous doll* and other toy*.

Roosevelt Runs It Albany, N. Y., Aug. 17—(U.R) The Democratic candidate for the presidency has ''stolen” Jimmy Walker's greatest show, some-, thing new in the career of the wise* cracking, playboy mayor of New York. Franklin D. Roosevelt, governor and magistrate hearing charges that James J. Walker is unfit for office, has barked his orders, has shot blunt, piercing questions that required direct answers, has announced that ‘I am running this show” —end he is running it. Now York City's political minstrel, accustomed to playing the leading roles in night clubs, at the prize fight ringside, in theater crowds, in city aldermanic chambers, or in such dramatic appeals as the one he made for the re- • lease of Tom Mooney, has found | that he is working under a stern director. True. Walker has struck back vet bally at Roosevelt rulings. He has flared momentarily with a

Pastor’s Love Poems Lead to Cell on Wife Murder Charge *♦♦ ♦ * 19-Year-Old Bride Whom Rev. Berrie Married 2 Months After First Wife’s Death Admits Verses, Sets Stage for Murder Trial. _ —i"' "i~~ .-A I * i3i Msssy/R m

MUSKOGEE. Okla. — A cell in the County jail was the residence of the Rev. S. A. Berrie, 52. fiery preacher, indicted for the alleged murder of his first wife last March. The minister's second wife. Mrs. Ida Bright Berrie, originally held with the preaiher after an autopsy I showed traces of poison in the dead woman's stomach, was at liberty after the grand jurors found that j she had no guilty knowledg eof the alleged crime. Mrs. Berrie died last March after collapsing in her husband's church during a lecture. No suspicion attached at that time to the minister. Two months later, however, he married Ida Bess Bright, demure 19-year-old teacher of one of his ; Sunday School classes. Then the first Mrs. Berrie’s sister. Mrs. Clem Trotter, became* suspicious. She kept her suspicion i secret for some time, then went to the office of Phillip K. Oldham, county prosecutor, and urged that : her sister's body be exhumed for' lamination. Autopsy showed traces of an un-! named p is n. said to have been ingredients of a sleeping potion. Investigation revealed that the: middle-aged minister had been enamored of the pretty Sunday: School teacher before the death of the first Mrs. Berrie, ami this circutnstance prompted Prosecutor’ Oidham to lay the facts before the grand jury. A search of the minister's study after his arrest revealed several verses penned to Miss Bright. j

Also the followng: i "That day when love’s bud shall blossom Into the flower of wedded life, Wheu in my arms I shall hold thee As my darling, loving wife." Besides these amorous passages, which Prosecutor Oldham attributed to the pen of the Rev. Mr. Beirie, the minister is the author of well-known hymns. Including "In Beulah lamd,” "I've a Precious * Savior," and "Over in the Glory Land.” “These accusations are siyy," the preacher said. "1 don't know anything about the poison, except that Mrs. Berrie was jealous and | irritable and had threatened • suicide." The second Mrs. Berrie, bowed , by grief, is in seclusion. o COURTHOUSE Real Estate Transfers Fort Wayne and Decatur T* Ciright of way in Alien and Adams Counties, to Indiana Service Corp, i tor $3,600.
