GARY CHINESE HIGHLY VALUES CITIZENSHIP Smuggled Into Country, Launryman Fights to Stay. By United Press GARY, Ind., Jan. 23.—Citizenship at which many native-born Americans are wont to sneer is valued highly by George Fong, 22, Gary laundry man. Smuggled into this country three years ago by a sailor for a consideration of $l5O, Fong was found hiding in a laundry on W. Fifth Ave., a week ago, and held for immigration officials. He was taken to Chicago to be deported with several dozen other Chinese under direction of J. Brekke of the United States immigration department. Fong's whereabouts was discovered only after a year’s determined effort of Government officials, so closely knit is the Chinese cooperation, Inspector Brekke said. Police searched the laundry several times where Fong was employed and he was finally found, hiding beneath a heap of bed-clothes on a bunk, in the basement. Police expressed surprise that he did not smother when he was dragged, squealing, from his hiding place. Several conflicting stories were told by Fong regarding his entrance into the United States. First he claimed his entry was legal and that his father, residing in San Francisco, Cal., was in possession of his papers. He later denied this statement, saying his parents were dead and that he had paid a sailor $l5O to conceal him as a stowaway in a boat from China and smuggle him into this country. Deportation proceedings will be brought against Fong in United States Commissioner Glass’ court in Chicago today. Jewelry Found in Tree By Times Special SHERIDAN, Ind., Jan. 23.—A watch, chain and ring belonging to A. C. Colby, Sheridan, landed in a tree when the auto Colby was driving was wrecked on a hill near Madison, severely injuring him. The jewelry was found by Clarence M. Hager, Bartholomew County, who returned it to the owner.

QUICK RELIEF FROM CONSTIPATION That is the Joyful cry of thousands since Dr. Edwards produced Ollre Tablets, the substitute for calomel. Dr. Edwards, a practicing physician for 20 years and calomel's old-time enemy, discovered the formula for Olive Tablets while treating patients fox. chronic constipation and torpid livers. Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, just a healing, soothing vegetable laxative mixed with olive oil. No griping is the “keynote" of these little sugar-coated, olive-colored tablets. They cause the bowels and liver to act normally. They never force them to unnatural action. If you have a “dark brown mouth"— bad breath—a dull, tired feeling—sick headache torpid liver constipation, you’ll find quick, sure and pleasant results from one or two of Dr, Edwards’ Olive Tablets at bedtime. Thousands take them every night to keep right. Try them. 15c, 30c, 60c.— Advertisement.

THE STORY THUS FAR* , “The people I know don’t shut themselves in clothes closets," said the fingerprint expert. “You positively amaxe me," declared Vance. A few minutes later finger-prints were found on the inside door-knob of the closet In the apartment in which the beautiful Margaret Odell bad been found strangled. But the amazing Vance declares the prints will not lead them to the murderer. VII (Tuesday, Sept 11; 10:30 am.) MARKHAM and Heath and Vance and I were now alone in the apartment. Dark, low-hanging clouds had drifted across the sun, and the gray spectral light intensified the tragic atmosphere of the rooms. Markham had lighted a cigar, and stood leaning against the piano, looking about him with a disconsolate but determined air. Vance had moved over to one of the pictures on the side wall of the living room—Boucher's “La Bergere Endormie” I think it was—and stood looking at it with cynical contempt. “Dimpled nudities, gamboling cupids and woolly clouds for royal cocottes,” he commented. His distaste for all the painting of the French decadence under Louis XV was profound. “One wonders what pictures courtesans hung in their boudoirs before the invention of these amorous eclogues, with their blue verdue and beribboned sheep.” “I’m more interested at present in what took place in this particular boudoir last night,” retorted Markham impatiently. “There’s not much doubt about that, sir,” said Heath encouragingly. “And I’ve an idea that when Dubois checks up those fingerprints with our files, we’ll about know who did it.” Vance turned toward him with a rueful smile. "You're so trusting. Sergeant. I, in turn, have an idea that, long before this touchin’ case is clarified, you’ll wish the irascible Captain with the insect-pow ;r had never found those fingerprints.’’ He made a playful gesture of emphasis. “Permit me to whisper into your ear that the person who left his sign-manuals on yonder rosewood table and cut glass doorknob had nothing whatever to do with the precipitate demise of the fair Mademoiselle Odell.’’ “What is it you suspect?” demanded Markham sharply. “Not a thing, old dear,” blandly declared Vance. “I’m wandering about In a mental murk as empty of sign-posts as Interplanetary space. The jaws of darkness do devour me up; I’m in the dead vast and middle of the night. My mental darkness is Egyptian, Stygian, Cimmerian.” Markham’s jaw tightened in exasperation; he was familiar with this evasive loquacity of Vance’s. Dismissing the subject, he addressed himself to Heath. “Have you done any questioning of the people in the house here?” “I talked to Odell's maid and to the janitor and the switchboard operators, but I didn’t go much into details—l was waiting for you. I'll say this, though; what they did tell me made my head swim. “If they don’t bg,ck down on some of their statements, we’re up against it.” “Let's have them in now. then.”

Stomach Strong Now, Suffered 20 Years Gas and Indigestion Ended. Kidney Tains Gene. Health Perfect. Any one who has been tortured by indigestion need not be told how wonderful it feels to Mrs. Julia Ulveling, 393 No. 6th St., Kankakee, 111., to be rid of this agonizing ailment. She writes: "For twenty years, I was In agony from my stomach. Food wouldn’t digest, but seemed to lie in one solid lump for hours. Gas bloated and pained me terribly. My heart would palpitate and miss beats, and at times I would feel faint and dizzy and everything turned black before my eyes. My kidneys were weak ar.d bothered me day and night. My back ached constantly and I was constipated and wretched all the time. I tried dozens of remedies without success, until I tried Viuna. This wonder medicine quickly stopped the stomach pains and started my digestive organs working properly. It ended the heart palpitation and dizzy spells. My kidney trouble and back-ache are gone, and I am sleeping soundly eating heartily, getting stronger and feeling better every day. I am so thankful for Viuna, and only sorry I didn’t know about it in time to prevent 20 years of suffering.” '/lona aeta promptly on lugglh >owelg, lazy liver and weak kidneys.

suggested Markham; “the maid first.” He sat down on the piano bench with his back to the keyboard. Heath rose, but instead of going to the door, walked to the oriel window. “There’s one thing I want to call your attention to, sir, before you interview these people, and that’s the matter of entrances and exits in this apartment.” He drew aside the gold-gauze curtain. “Look at that iron gratjng. “All the windows in this place, including the ones in the bathroom, are equipped with iron bars just like these. “It's only eight or ten feet to the ground here, and whoever built this house wasn’t taking any chances of burglars getting in through the windows.” He released the curtain, and strode into the foyer. “Now, there's only one entrance to this apartment, and that’s this door here opening off the main hall. “There isn't a transom or an airshaft or a dumb-waiter in the place, and that means that the only way—the only way—that anybody can get in or out of this apartment is through this door. “Just keep that fact in your mind, sir, while you’re listening to the stories of these people . . . Now, I’ll have the maid brought in.” In response to Heath’s order a detective led in a mulatto woman about thirty years old. She was neatly dressed, and gave one the impression of capability. When she spoke it was with a quiet, clear enunciation which attested to a greater degree of education than is ordinarily found in members of her class. Her name, we learned, was Amy Gibson; and the information elicited by Markham's preliminary questioning consisted of the following facts: She had arrived at the apartment that morning a few inmutes after seven, and, as was her custum, had let herself in with her own key, as her mistress generally slept till late. Once or twice a week she came early to” do sewing and mending for Miss Odell before the latter arose. On this particular morning she had come early to make an alteration in a gown. As soon as she opened the door she had been confronted by the disorder of the apartment, for the Venetian-glass doors of the foyer were wide open; and almost simultaneously she had noticed the body of her mistress on the davenport. She had called at once to Jessup, the night telephone operator then on duty, who, after one glance into the living room, had notified the police. She had then sat down in the public reception room and waited for the arrival of the officers. Her testimony had been simple and direct and intelligently stated. If she was nervous or excited, s. ie managed to keep her feelings well under control. “Now,” continued Markham, after a short pause, ‘let us go back to last night. At what time did you leave Miss Odell?” "A few minutes before seven, sir,” the woman answered, in a colorless

even' tone which seemed to be characteristic of her speech. “Is that your usual hour for leaving?” "No; I generally go about six. But last night Miss Odell wanted me to help her dress for dinner.” “Don’t you always help her dress for dinner?” _ “No, sir. But last night she was going with some gentleman to dinner and the theater, and wanted to look specially nice.” “Ah!” Markham leaned forward. “And who was this gentleman?" “I don’t know, sir—Miss Odell didn’t say.” “And you couldn’t suggest who it might have been?” “I couldn’t say sir.” “And when did Miss Odell tell you that she wanted you to come early this morning?” “When I was leaving last night.” “So she evidently didn’t anticipate any danger, or have any fear of her companion.” “It doesn’t look that way.” The woman paused, as if considering. “No. I know she didn’t. She was in good spirits.” Markham turned to Heath. “Any other questions you want to ask, Sergeant?” Heath removed an unlighted cigar from his mouth, and bent forward, resting his hands on his knees. “What jewelry did this Odell woman have on last night?” he demanded gruffly. The maid's manner became cool and a bit haughty. “Miss Odell”—she emphasized the “Miss,” by way of reproaching him for the disrespect implied in his omission—"wore all her rings, five or six of them, and three bracelets —one of square diamonds and emeralds. “She also had a sunburst of pearshaped diamonds on a chain round her neck, and she carried a platinum lorgnette set with diamonds and pearls.” "Did she own any other jewelry?” “A few small pieces, maybe, but I’m not sure.” "And did she keep ’em in a steel jewel-case in the bedroom?” “Yes—when she wasn’t wearing them.” There was more than a suggestion of sarcasm in the reply. “Oh, I thought maybe she kept 'em locked up when she had ’em on.” Heaths antagonism had been aroused by the maid's attitude; he could not have failed to note that she had consistently omitted the punctillious “sir” when answering him. He now stood up and pointed loweringly to the black document-box on the rosewood table. “Ever see that before?”

The woman nodded indifferently. “Many times.” “Where w r as It generally kept?” “In that tiling.” She indicated the Boule cabinet with a motion of the head. “What was in the box?” “How should I know?” “You don’t know—huh?” Heath thrust out his jaw, but his bullying attitude had no effect upon the impassive maid. “I’ve got no idea,” she replied, calmly. “It was always kept locked, and I never saw Miss Odell open It.” The Sergeant walked over to the door of the living room closet. “See that key?” he asked angrily. Again the woman nodded; but this
