ZANE GREY WITH t EXPEDITION SENT FORGIANT FISH Author’s Relatives and Scientists Also in Party. SYDNEY, March 4.—The most ambitious expedition ever fitted out to capture giant fish assembled at AVellington. New Zealand, recently. Its members included Zane Grey, the American novelist, his brother, R. C. Grey, his son, Romer Grey, Captain L. Mitchell and C. Alma Baker, millionaire East Indian rubber planta- * Uon owner. Last year Grey, Mitchell and Baker met at various fishing resorts . along the New Zealand coast, and had astounding sport with the big fish. Grey incorporated his experiences in a book and before separating, members of the party determined to meet again this year. The present venture has been styled the “Zane Grey-Alma Baker Expedition." It is well equipped. It includes two scientists, a doctor, and an English naval officer who has been engaged on survey work in the South Seas. There are also two expert motion picture cameramen, apd two “still" photographers- The movie men will produce what is reckoned will be the greatest fishing picture yet filmed. Every sort of life will be shown, as well as camp life, life aboard ship and trout and salmon fishing. Frank Stick, a New York artist, is also coming with Grey. Grey has sent out his large boat, the Fisherman, to act as a mother ship in the various expeditions off the New Zealand coast, and there are five motor launches. Giant swordfish are the chief means of sport, but there are several other kinds of big game fish that fight the angler every inch of the way until they are landed. The fishing season lasts from the end of January until the end of August and the New Zealand government, through its tourist bureau, makes elaborate camping arrangements for the fishermen at the chief . centers of the sport.

Pimples, Boils, Skin Eruptions
Skilled physicians recognize the appearance of pimples, boils and other skin eruptons as being an indication of an abnormal condition of the system. This is why so many thousands have been enabled to free themselves of these unsightly blemishes and painful annoyances by taking a course of S.S.S. You owe it to yourself to try S.S.S. It helps Nature build up red corpuscles. It improves the processes by which the blood is nourished. It is time-tried and reliable. “I suffered frpm impure blood — was weak, and I had lost so much weight, I didn’t look natural. I had pimples and was also bothered with a breaking-out that itched terribly. I also had boils one after another.

GIRL FIGHTS OLD BABY BETROTHAL CUSTOMIN CHINA Resorts to Court in Effort for Release From Engagement. PEKIN, March 4.—A striking example of the conflict between China’s adopted occidential legal codes and the inherited customs of her people is furnished by a case before the Pekin district court in which a girl, betrothed before birth, is striving to avoid marriage With and man she dislikes. Twenty-three years ago two families, the Hans and the Tsaos, were neighbors in the small town of Tsai Yu near Pekin. In the fashiqn known to all Chinese for centuries, these families pledged their friendship by agreeing that if the next children born to both families were of opposite sexes they would be betrothed. To the Han family was born a daughter; to the Tsao family, a son The betrothal accordingly took place. N As the years passed, Miss Ilan grew into a clever, industrious girl, attractive in all respects and of considerable literary accomplishments. On the contrary, the heir to the Tsao name and property found no interests beyond, the home farm and in the eyes of Miss Han, was not only uncultured mentally but uncouth in appearance. The time drew near for the marriage. The Han’s father died, and thus removed one of the greatest binding ties of the Chinese family. At cnee she exerted pressure to obtain release from a promise in which she had no part. But the bond had been signed.
I tried different kinds of remedies, but nothing did me any good until a friend advised me to take S. which I did. This was some time ago. Now I feel well, and I am getting along fine. S. S. S. stopped the itching and it cured me of boils. I advise all weak and run-down people to give S. S. S. a trial. It clears up the skin and makes you strong and fills you with .energy.” Mrs. J. \V. Barker, 1337 Walnut Street, Cincinnati, Ohio. S. S. S. is made from the fresh roots of medicinal herbs and plants and is prepared in a scientific way in a modern laboratory. S. S. S. is sold at all good drug stores in two sizes. The large size is more economical.—Advertisement.
The Tsao family was obdurate. Only one solution appeared, and that has been taken through reference of the marriage contract to the courts.
O.S. EXPECTS 12.000 MURDERS Statisticians Expect Number so rYear. liu A’ft! Service TORONTO, March 4.—Statisticians of the United States expect 12,000 murders a year. Cn the same basis, in proportion to population, thty Province of Ontario, Canada, should have 300. Instead of 300 the records for a year show only twenty-one. In Toronto, a city of 600,000 population, there has not been a premeditated murder in a year and only three killings. Os these three, two were cases of insanity. This contrasts with Chicago's recent record of 136 murders and 136 cases of manslaughter in 304 days. Robbery and fraud in the United States this year will yield $10,000,000,000, according to crime prognostications. In Ontario, in a year, but a single highway robbery was reported. LENGvIT LINES TRIPLED Tenfold Increase Made in Miles Flown. Hu A'ft A Service j LONDON, March 4.--The length of the world’s air lines has tripled in the last six years, while actual mileage flown shows a "ten-fold increase. In 1919 the total mileage flown was 1,170,000; in 1920 it was 12,400. In 1920 the recognized air routes of the world covered the following mileage: Europe, 6,000 miles; America, 2,040; Africa, 887. At the end of 1925 the figures, respectively, were: Europe, 18,120 miles; America, 8,025 miles; Africa, 3,641, and Australia and Asia, 4,650. Eleven years ago a machine on the London-Paris route developed 700 horsepower and carried six passengers. One of the latest types developed nearly 2,000 horsepower and carried twenty persons.

. THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
POVERTY STRICKEN FOLK ONCE WORE ROMANOFFPURPLE Los Angeles Couple Lost Wealth Home Next. Du Times Special LOS ANGELES, Alarcli 4. —From wealth beyond dreams of avarice to the obscurity of the poorhouse is the prospect facing Alexis Alcxandrovitch !e Rehbinder and his wife Maria Emma, if they lose in the battle they are waging to keep their humble Los Angeles home, the only possession left them. Tall, and with the stamp of aristocracy cn his bearded face, the 61-year-old nobleman, who was once an attache at the court of the Grand Duke Vladimir, appeared in court here recently with his invalid wife to bring charges against an alleged German-American bond company which, he claims, “hoodwinked” him out o fall his money and forced him t.o sign away his home. “We shall have absolutely nothing left,” said do Rehbinder in an interview aL-his home. “And it seems a short time ago when we had everything—everything that wealth and rank and power can bring.” Aristocratic Still There is still a courtliness of manner that distinguishes the faded old artistocrat, a courtliness that even his unpretentious home and rather shabby clothes cannot wholly dim. A frail little woman witli lines of pain cut deep in her cameo-like face, who sits all day in a wheel chair, was introduced as his wife. A cripple, the old nobleman waits on her, carries out her every wish with his own hands as sedulously as liveried flunkies could ever have done in the old days of pomp and wealth. To the manner born, he had been educated on the immense family estate at Kourek, he said. And when the Bolshevist government seized the estates and mills from which he derived his vast income, he found himself unfitted to make his own living. Business Losses He related pathetic attempts to recoup his dwindling fortunes —a perfume business, a real estate fiasco, numerous investments in visionary schemes that invariably resulted in loss. “I wanted to invest in some German city bonds,” he said. “Two men told me they represented a GermanAmerican company. I signed some papers. All I know is that my $15,000 is now worth $7, and they are trying to get my house, too —all I have left in the world.” “Other Russians of iny rank and station have had to wash dishes in order to live. Perhaps, who knows —” And one who had known the splen-

LIKED HER PICTURE PRAGUE, March 4.—Prof. Peder never heard of Lya de Putti, although he—does know his classical dictionary. Recently he advertised for a secretary to accompany him on a tour. By return mail he received an application, accompanied by a picture of Lya de Putti. The professor sent SIOO at once for traveling expenses, but when the girl arrived she bore not the slightest resemblance to the picture. The professor wants his hundred.
