SAYS VENGEANCE ANGEL TOLD HER TO SEAY KILTER Woman Declares She Is Now Avenged for Murder of Her Son. Bu NBA Service NEW YORK, Oct. B—An Angel of Vengeance In gleaming white floated out of the dusk above the altar of the church where she knelt In prayer and caused her to kill the man she believed had slain her son, Mrs. Josephine Cagnino says. Donna Peppina—as the Italians of the crowded East Side tenement know her —has been indicted on a charge of first degree murder. But the gray, shawl-clad mother cares little now what the law of man ay do. Serenity and comfort have come to her for the first time in six long years as she waits benind steei bars. Donna Peppina has made her peace with God. Appeared Year Ago More than a year ago the angel first appeared. .It was radiant in flowing white, as she described it, and descended on broad-sweeping wings from the darkness of the rafters of the church where she prayed. voice of thy son cries out,” it seemed to say, stretching out an accusing arm. ‘‘And you must be the instrument of vengeance!” That had been five years from the day she had stumbled breathless, from the tenement at Delaney and Goerck streets, to find her son, Ignatius, 21, lying dead on the sidewalk. Andrew Ficarella, ‘‘that bad man,” had laughed, she said, thrust a gun into his pocket and run away as she screamed at him. Police searched for him awhile, and then the law forgot. Years passed, Donna Peppina prayed. The vision came, and then she met Ficarella. on the street. He laughed CORNS rn Quickrelieffrompainful i a[ V corns, tender toes and ’ 7 pressure of tight shoes.

again, and Jostled her in the crowd. Again she met him, and he ducked into a cellar way. “Not I, but Ignatius will be avenged,” she called after him down the black hole. Again the vision came. More and more often she saw Ficarella at the market, on fier way to church, talking with her friends. He leered meaningly when she passed him. A bad man, the neighbors said, an exconvict, who went always armed. Then, one rainy day, dreary Sunday, Donna Peppina, coming from church in her gray shawl, saw Ficarella swaggering toward her. It was the very spot on which her son had been killed. “Ho!” he cried mockingly, “If it isn’t Donna Peppina!” 0 ‘‘No! No!” she sci earned suddenly, hysterically. Her hand reached forth from the folds of her shawl. “I AM IGNATIUS!” And she fired. ARRESTED IN INQUIRY Negro Said to Have Been Implicated With Barbecue Bandits.

Frisco Has Street of Missing Soles Bv United Press SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. B.— Some day this city may have the most unique street in the world and it may be named “The Street of Heels.” It depends on the weather. At the intersection of Fifth and Market Sts., downtown, the asphalt pavement on hot days melts to the sticky consistency of fly-paper. Pedestrians leave the impress of their shoes on it and sometimes emerge with a missing heel or two. Trucks and autos imbed those heels deeper and so Officer Larry O’Connel, who holds sway there, boasts of as fine a collection of heels as can be found Here and there may be seen a dainty french heel, alongside perhaps an extraordinary large one that could only belong to some fellow-officer. Colors vary and some are badly worn, some new and others just partly worn. “This heel here,” said Officer O’Connel pointing a dainty dot of a heel, “was worn by a flapper. I remember her for she wouldn’t stop; just hurtled on blushing and limping. v “Some day the street will be solidly enforced if the warm weather prevails,” said Officer O’Connel, reflectingly, and then, with a broad smile: “Theyil probably name it ‘The Street of Missing Soles.’ ” ‘PEACHES” NERVES BAD Specialist Admits Treating Brown ing’s Cinderella.

TAKES RAP AT 1H CENTORY JAZZMELODIES Bazaar of Screechy Colors, Spanish Composers Description. Bu United Press MADRID, Oct. 8. —There no art in Jazz, believes Joaquin Turina, one of Sprain’s best composers. “Most jazz bands," he has declared, “are nothing but a congregation of strlnking musical instruments and absurd things like whistles, bells, horns, etc. Jazz music is a kind of bazar with screechy colors outside. “The fundamental error of nearly all jazz bands is that each musician lets his wildest inspiration loose, stops when he pleases, changes rhythm when he likes, and even goes off his own way without notice of what the rest of the orchestra are difig. All this cannot be accepted as music, simply because it has an influence on a certain public. “Nedrly all jazz bands mean disorder and balance, two violins frequently fight desperately not only against saxophones and clarinets, but trumpets, trombones and what not! Saxophones, for instance, are all right as harmonic background in bands. They are very useful to sweeter sharp sonorities of brass instruments, but the saxophone solo at the head of an orchestra is one of those inexplicable aberrations which go as part of the atmosphere in cabarets and fashionable dancing places. "The jazz band can be useful, but it should be disciplined, and the composers of jazz music should take the trouble of writing in full all parts as they should be played. Better effects will be reached, and instead of intolerable monotonous banging and hammering, jazz constitute colorful ami attractive music.” TERRE HAUTE —Eight Terre Haute men are listed in the 1926-27 edition of “Who’s Who in America,” which is just off the press. The list Includes four educators, an author, a minister, a Congressman and Ever ett Sanders, secretary to President Coolldge. \— All Incoming aliens at American ports must be examined by doctors of the United States Public Health Service.
