Ectoplasin Demonstration Told of by Conan Doyle

NEW YORK, March 10. —Demonstration of ectoplasm, the intangible substance declared by certain spiritualists to have been emitted by a medium before a group of 100 leading Austrian scientists, was announced by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in a letter published today. Thirteen seances \vqr held, Sir Arthur wrote, at which Dr. Shrenck Notzing of Munich demonstrated with Willy S., a young German medium, and convinced skeptics and bitter opponents of his theory that the claims of spiritualists that ectoplasm exists are true. Sir Arthur’s letter, which was a reply to his critics, said in part: ‘ i have received the report of the recent demonstration by Dr. ShrenckNotzing at Munich, which surely puts an end to the whole debate so that any one who reopens it is inexcusably ignorant dr wilfully perverse. "Os the 100 (who witnessed the demonstration) twenty-three are university professors. Including Zimmer, Beecher KalkV. Freytag, Saizeer,

State Examiner Takes Over Records of Chicago Financial Concern Following Suicide of its President, Bn United Pres* , CHICAGO, March 10,—Doors of the Logan Square Trust and Savings Bank, with deposits of $2,700,000, were elosed today following the suicide of Fred \Y. Popp, president of the institution. Investigators, who examined Popp’s body, found in an auto on a lonely farm road, discovered $61,000 in cancelled checks. The checks were drawn by Paul Popp, son of the president, on the Republican National Bank of St. Louis, payable to himself and indorsed by him. The son was reluctant to explain the checks.

“I gave him that check book before I went to California two months ago,’’ the son said. “It was my personal account. I do not wish to talk about it further. I wish it could be kept out of the newspapers.” Decision to close the bank was reached in the early hours today after an all-night conference of directors with H. F. Savage, chief bank examiner for Illinois. Bank Under Inspection The bank, one of the most popular neighborhood savings institutions in Chicago, was under inspection for several days before Popp killed himself. Paul Popp was cashier, a heavy stockholder and had been associated with his father in both the banking and real estate business for several years. Relatives said the elder Popp had been worried recently and had difficulty in sleeping. Directors estimated that Popp’s private wealth totalled at least $250,000. He was once a mall carrier in the Logan Square district. Seeing the possibilities offered through development of a business section, he started a bank twenty years ago which he operated at first in connection with his mail route. He was a prudent business man and the de velopinent was rapid. Bullet Entered Heart Popp apparently killed himself about 11 a. m., Friday, after having tirst visited the bank. It was late in the afternoon when the body was found. A heavy calibre revolver was lying in the auto seat beside the body with one exploded cartridge. A bullet had entered the man’s heart. A hasty conference of the directors was held with Savage. Popp’s widow and his son were called In to make statements. Both said they were mystified by the suicide and they would do everything in their power to help clear up the situation. John J. Sonatby. chairman of the board of directors, declared that the bank was safe, "regardless of what the examination of the books may show."

KINS TUT SANDAL LATEST NAMESAKE OF ANCIENT ROLES Hats and Dresses, Now Footwear, Reflect Influence of Egyptian Monarch, By JANET PRYOR Old King Tut was a merry oln soul And a merry old soul was lie: He said; “Three thousand years from now They'll he naming shoes for me.” (With apologies to Mother Goose.) One would not think that, in these days, when kings are somewhat at a discount, the discovery of the tomb f one who lived about 3,000 years ago would set the world topsy-turvy. But it has done that. First the scientists got excited. Then the dress designers gave the women elaborate Egyptian costumes. Ha is. handkerchiefs, glows, ail came under the colorful, if somewhat belated, in fluence of King Tut. And now, at last, comes the King Tut sandal. Although the sandal originated not so far from Indiana polls—over in Cos lumhus. Ohio- —-it will not "hit" this city for a couple of weeks, according to local shoe dealers. It will take that long for supplies just ordered, to get here. then— King Tut will re;gn supreme in the fashion world, a.s once ho reigned on the hanks of the Nile. The sandal is of the cutout style which was popular even before the tomb of Tut was opened. it lias seven long, narrow slits on each side of the vamp. The flat heel is one and one fourth to one-half inch*** high. The sandal comes in many colors—red, blue, beige, white, black. With it will be worn contrasting stockings. They’re on the way. So when the yirls get v -out the rest of their King Tut costumes. Indianapolis will be a veritable “little Egypt.”
