EVERY JOY OF ANGLING WAITS FOREJUDGE JA/isconsin Streams Close to Brule Well Stocked With Fish. By ~S E A Service SUPERIOR, Wis., June 9.—When President Coolidge arrives here for his vacation he will find trout fishing is not the only form of angling awaiting him. Ten miles from the headwaters of the Brule River rises the famius St. Croix River, which flows down across Wisconsin to join the Mississippi, and it teems with small mouth black bass. It is within easy automobile travel of the lodge. Three years ago Irvin S. Cobb and Jim Reddon, the famous Dowagiac angler, fished the St. Croix River, and pronounced it the world’s greatest fishing grounds for small mouth bass. The small mouth bass, incidentally, gives the fisherman as good a run for his money as any fish in the world. Then there is a host of lakes surrounding Cedar Island lodge. Ten miles south, for instance, are the Eau Claire lakes, which teem with bass and pike. Other lakes in the vicinity, such as Nebagamon, Lyman. Bardon and Amnicon, offer these fish and the gamey muscallonge. On top of this, there is Lake Superior a few miles away, available for cruises and deep-water fishing. A comfortable cabined cruiser, the Sylph; has been placed at the President’s disposal by its owners. Former Senator Irvine Lenroot. who has a summer home about eight miles below the Pierce estate, probably will be one of the President’s guides. He has fished the Brule River repeatedly, and knows it well. According to a prevalent story. Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover visited the Brule a few years ago to enjoy the fishing, while years ago it used to be one of the favorite haunts of Grover Cleveland. Most of the fishing in the Brule is done from a boat. The boats are long enough so that the fisherman has plenty of room to swing his rod and cast his bait, and the boatman is always a man who knows the river and can guide him straight to the best spots.

$5,000 Offered Winner in Madison Square Garden Endurance Hop. Bu United Press NEW YORK, June 9.—Madison Square Garden which has been used for prize fights, six-day bike races, circuses and even the finale of a bunion derby, will house next week still another pastime—a dance marathon. “Prof.” Milton D. Crandall, formerly of Pittsburgh, who hopes to be to terpsichore what C. C. Pyle was to ambling, is staging the endurance ankling contest. He and “Tex” Rickard beiieves that 100 couples will enter the marathon, which will continue through June days and nights until exhaustion has overcome the last hoofer. Offiers $5,000 Award It is the hope of “Professor” Crandall who offers the winner $5,000 and a possible vaudeville contract that the event will be kept “refined.” In outlining his ideas to the press Crandall explained that clean clothing would be required. Fifteen minutes of rest are imperative after each hour of dancing. During those fifteen minutes the feminine contingent can have its haiar curled and the masculine its trousers creased. At any rate neatness is required. “Peaches” Browning to Dance “Bossy” Gillis who won fame in Newburyport, Mass., by making the members of the city council dance, has promised to be on hand Sunday night to throw off the first shoe or fire the starting gun or something. “Peaches” Heenan, herself a dancer, is expected to grace the Garden with her presence.

WATSON HEADS FARM BLOC TO DOWNJOOVER Champions Cause of Goff, Lowden and Curtis in Last Stand. BY RALPH H. TURNER United Press Staff Correspondent KANSAS CITY. June 9.—The farm alliance movement, designed by the opponents of Herbert Hoover as the only possible means of eliminating the cabinet member as an outstanding candidate from the Republican presidential nomination, began in earnest here today. The alliance, combining the strength of four candidates, Frank O. Lowden and Senators Watson, Curtis and Goff, opened the drive wit ha series of mass meetings, which they hoped would crystalize sentiment against Secretary Hoover. Appears as Last Stand The activity, was sudden and hurried and in every method gaye the appearance of being a “last ditch” stand against the cabinet candidate. Circulars hastily printed, appeared on the streets today. They blazoned this announcement: "And now the prince of Republican orators, Hon. James E. Watson of Indiana, will tell you about the Republican party.” Senator Watson will make I pearance at the Shubert I Theater. Other speakers will be i Governor McMullen of Nebraska, leader of the farm protest movement and. Former Governor Hyde of Missouri, whose support generally is credited to Lowden.

M When AiGiiHl Loves fi mM\ © 1928 by NEA Service MSB oyRIITH PLWtY GROVES Jr. JD
VIRGINIA BREWSTER, after losing both father and wealth, consents to make her home with CLARISSA DEAN and her father. DEAN plots to separate hsr from hsr fiance, NATHANIEL DANN, but fails and later is forced to pay blackmail to a MRS. FARLEY or face a scandal. CLARISSA becomes jealous of her and VIRGINIA resolves to leave, but DEAN insists that she marry him. When she refuses, he threatens to reveal the fact that her father cheated him out of SIOO,000 in a bootlegging deal. Recklessly, she promises to earn enough to repay him In one year—or marry him. VIRGINIA leaves but has to pawn a ring to tide over until she can find a .position. She goes to NATHANIEL'S studio, but her joy at seeing him is clouded because sh- dare not reveal her financial need or promise to DEAN; and also because of the familiarity with which his model. CHfRI. treats NIEL. She seeks work through an agency but without success. Upon arriving at her hotel one evening, she finds orchids from DEAN and wonders how he learned her address. NIEL takes her out to dine and on the way home VIRGINIA notires a man whom she has suspected of shadowing her for several days. Next morning she calls on a broker friend. OLIVERS CUTTER, who ha3 promised to help her. His secretary suddenly seems aloof 'ier having been friendly to VIRGINIA at fir it. .A call from the agency brings hope. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER XXVIII (Continued) • “Some other time.” Virginia suggested. to conceal the fact that she was slightly offended. r Later, lunching alone, she smiled a little ruefully over Miss Evans’ refusal to join her. Plainly the “other engagement'’ had been merely an excuse. What a change a few short weeks had wrought in her life. Here was a woman as remote from her in the past as the earth from the sun, insofar as social relations were concerned, actually refusing to lunch with her! Virginia admitted the humor of it. but not without a little pang of regret. “Perhaps Oliver was in an ill humor with her,” she reflected, genuinely bothered about Miss Evans’ strange conduct. “I’m sure I did nothing to offend her. ’ She was disappointed at losing an opportunity to talk again with a sensible person who had been ir. accord with her views. Nathaniel would naturally expect, if she had sufficient money to pay her expenses, that she would take her time about living up to her new-found ideals and wait until sqme choice position came hei waj before taking one. She dared not tell him how urgent it was for her to find employment aid if he wondered at whatever sh might finally do she would have .o pretend that ambition did not count. Only the fact that she was doing something mattered, she would tell him. Yes, but what was that something going to be? Should she gc back to Mrs. Phelps? Telephoning would save time. And she must look up other agencies. She would do that right away. When she reached Mrs. Phelps by telephone she was asked if she i would not come In as soon as convenient. That afternoon? Yes, if ; she could. Virginia went up directly by sub- j way. It was one of the very few j times in her life that, she and rid- H den in the underground trains and she found it exceedingly distasteful. Unsavory individuals stared at her pointedly, giving particular attention to the fashionable brevity of her skirts. There was mors crowding, too, than when she had come downtown and although she had a seat her feet were trodden upon and one lurching passenger barely escaped being deposited in her lap when the long train jolted to a stop. Virginia was decidedly relieved to come up to the street level again, and the days when she had complained of the traffic congestion on Fifth Avenue came back to her now as blissfully free of any real contact with transportation problems. Then,. if caught in the vortex of New York’s vast population, she could at least sit in decent isolation in a comfortable motor car until her way was cleared. Today she had been compelled to shoulder her path in and out of' a subway train against the opposition of hardened straphangers who, it seemed, thought nothing of a little buffeting and elbowing. She felt sure she must be littered with black and blue spots. But there was the hope of finding a position at Mrs. Phelps’ to buoy her up and lessen her discomfort. She was doomed to disappointment once more that day, however, for it soon became apparent that all Mrs. Phelps desired was to have a little motherly talk with her. Virginia could not understand her attitude at all and, frankness being native to her when fact did not Sbit, she asked with direct simy, “Why stre you trying to discourage me from seeking work, Mrs. Phelps?” CHAPTER XXIX MRS. PHELPS flushed slowly under Virginia’s straight forward question and her glance slipped un-

easily away from the girl's face to the glass-topped desk. “I’m not really erying to discourage you,” she protested lamely; “but I've been thinking about you and it seems .... well, a bit absurd for a girl of your .position to be subject to such—er, indignities as you met at the Gernsners.” j “There were no indignities,” Vir- ! ginia stated gravely. “Mrs. Gerns- ; ner dost her temper, it’s true, but ! I'm sure she felt she had sufficient reason to do so. And as far as my position is concerned .... it is that of a girl who must take whatever comes to her in the effort to get work.” “That’s just the point I wish to make, my dear. Is it necessary for you to get work? Don’t you think it would be more becoming if you allowed your friends to assist you?” A frown appeared on Virginia’s forehead, to be quickly followed by raised eyebrows. She smiled coldly and shook her head. “I assume you have been in com- | munication with someone who has ■ advised you against helping me,” she said siffly. “May I ask who it was?” Mrs. Phelps lifted her chin a trifle. “lam telling you what I beI lieve is for your best interest,” she answered evasively. “You have no idea, I’m sure, what ! it will mean to you to undertake to | earn your own livelihood. And | surely you do not intend to go on I indefinitely holding a position. Why | should you bother with it at all?” ; she added lightly in tones that were subtly suggestive of the inconse- | qunce in which she held the idea of ! Virginia Brewster looking for a job. j "Because I will not accept charity,” Virginia replied warmly, j "But you are engaged. I underj stand,” Mrs. Phelps said suavely. “It j occurred to me that it is rather needless for you to go through all | the unpleasantness and self-denial | of this sort of thing so long as you 1 are not in pursuit of a career. That would be different, but as it seems } you are only seeking employment until you are married I think you ! are a very foolish girl to turn your back upon your proper station and : your real friends.” Virginia considered her remarks with scant courtesy. I "Yes, I do intend to marry—at , the end of the year, I hope,” she said spiritedly; "but in the meani time I must face things as they are and it is impossible for me to go to I any of my friends. It is absolutely i necessary for me to find employment.'’ Mrs. Phelps looked grieved. “Well, I've tried hard to show you how difficult it is.’’ she said defensively; ! “but if you still wish us to retain ! your application we shall be pleased to do so.” "Thank you,” Virginia replied briefly and departed. She wase quite sure there was more to the interviey tha nappea ed on the surface. One thing was certain. Mrs. Phelps’ indirect reply to her request for the name of the person who had interfered proved to Virginia that her first suspicion was correct, homeone had interfered! But who could it be? Virginia cogitated over it the rest of the afternoon, with small satisfaction. Quite apparently it was someone who knew of her visits to the agency—someone who did not wish her to have success there. Virginis was at a loss to decide who it might be. She had not mentioned Mrs. Phelps to anyone, not even Nathaniel. Miss Evans knew; but she had sent Virginia there. It was preposterous to suppose she had been responsible for Mrs. Phelps’ sudden change of attitude. Unless . . . but that was utterly absurd. Oliver wouldn’t have had | any reason to interfere even If Miss | Evans had told him of Virginia s ; plans. But aside from those who knew that she had wanted work who could ! it be who would try to stand in her way? It came to Virginia in a flash of convistlon that therQ was one person she could always depend upon to try to balk her. Frederick Dean! But he could not have known what she was doing! Virginia tried to make herself believe that he could not. It would be too harrowing to think that he was keeping watch on her.

Still there was simply no one else she could think of who would have any incentive to intervene in her affairs in a way to make her life more difficult. But how had he tuVned Mrs. Phelps? “I suppose he told her what a little idiot I was to refuse his aid,” Virginia stormed hotly. “Perhaps he bought her consent to let me down. But I’d rather think she really believes I’m making a fool of myself,” she concluded, averse to condemning anyone without proof. The aftermath of the whole thing was to leave her with a feelying of being in a blind alley without an exit. Miss Evans was inexplicably unriendly. Nathaniel could not help her because she dared not let him know how badly she needed advice. Oliver was Hardly to be trusted to have any sensible ideas and Mr. Gardiner would undoubtedl yurge her to accept a loan or the uncertain kindness of friends. Well, there were other agencies. The telephone directory wiuld afford their addresses. The next day she made the rounds, deciding to use her own name. She decided that it would probably leak out anyhow, and she wanted to show Mr. Dean, if he actually were having her watched, that she was ont afraid of anything, even publicity. And she got plenty of it. Someone who knew a newspaperman tipped him off that the Brewster girl was hunting a job. During the next few days Virginia was besieged with calls, by telephone and in person. Requests for an interview and her story came from every direction. Virginia knew the resourcefulness of the men she had to deal with. In fact she knew several of them by sight, liked them, too. for she and her father had always been well treated by the press; and they in their turn had recognized the fact that rich people are "news,” and had never been disagreeable to those whose line of duty crossed their path. Bue she hardly knew what to do when they stormed her en masse, and when she appealed to Mr. Cferdiner and Nathaniel for advice they told her to remain in seclusion and to refuse to talk, even to employes of the hotel. Still there were stories and pictures just the same, and the pelas for an interview did not cease. Finally Virginia used her own judgment, called the editorial offices of the different newspapers and asked to have a reporter sent to her at a certain hour that day. The hotel management, elated with the publicity she was bringing them, arranged her reception to the representatives of the press in great style. They even went so far in their hospitality as to serve refreshments. When all the “boys” and “girls” of the party were gathered around her, Virginia talked to them quietly and earnestly. “I appreciate all your kindness of the past,” she told them, “but I assure you there is nothing I have to say that can be of any Interest to your readers.” “Oh now. Miss Brewster,” someone broke in. "People want your point of view, Wou know. Just why you’re looking for a job.” “That's right,” echoed another. Virginia glanced from one speaker to the other with deep distress in her eyes. She looked very white and shaken and everyone present felt a touch of compassion for hr. “Please,” she began softly. “Don’t press me for a story. You all khow that I’ve suffered greatly, and there has been so much publicity already. Surely one lone girl cannot be of such importance that she must be sacrificed endlessly to satisfy the curiosity of the world.” “But you’re front-page stuff. Miss Brewster,” one of them objected. “Can’t you just say a word or two about being sick of society and want' ing to be useful or something.” “I’m sorry, I can’t say anything,”

Virginia replied wearily. Then her voice rose slightly and she spoke with forced calmness. “I’ve asked you to come here so I might beg you to let the public forget about me,” she said. “I am at your mercy, ladies and gentlemen. Won’t you please spare me?" “That sounds like the end of this trail for me,” a dean among them remarked sotto voice. But Virginia heard. She turned quickly to face him. “Thank you,” her lips formulated, but the words were inaudible. “You won’t change your mind?" a young suspicious fellow asked, fearful of drawing off and then being scooped. “I pledge my word that I shall say no more than I have,” Virginia promised in full understanding of the thought that troubled him, and others perhaps. “And I will be undyingly grateful to you all if you will write no more about me than you must. “Thank you very much for coming she hurried on. “I hope some, day I may give you some pleasant news for your papers,” she added, smiling upon them through a mist of tears. With those who pushed forward she shook hands and then broke away to disappear through a nearby doorway. Just as she passed out of sight she turned to nod in final farewell to the men and women who watched her go with a unanimous feeling of good will. Her eye caught on one of the group who stood a little apart—a man she had not noticed before, and a quick stab of apprehension pierced her heart.

The trial was in recess today while the judge considered the huge mass of legal points raised by Stewart’s counsel. The latest points raised by Stewart were that the committee was illegal because it had fiifteen members, whereas only fourteen members are authorized and that the subpoena was invalid because it called for his appearance at the committee’s own room instead of the Senate office building room where the hearing was held.

CLAMP ORDERED ON U. S.’CANADA RAIL SMUGGLING Treasury Warns Roads to Take Early Action; Millions Lost. BY JOSEPH S. WASNEY United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, June 9.—The Treasury today notified railroads engaged in commerce between the United States and Canada that they immediately must take steps to end rail smuggling between the two countries. The Government warned international carriers that failure to devise means would result in the customs service unloading and examining the contents of every freight car crossing the border. Work Both Ways Federal officials explained this step only would be taken as a last resort. Smugglers, however, have become so active along the boundary line that drastic steps must be taken at once. Authorities estimated merchandise and goods valued at hundreds of millions of dallars are smuggled into the United States and Canada each year. Contraband runners work two ways, officials said. Diamonds, hard liquor, narcotics and beer are smuggled into the United States from Canada, while alcohol, silks, cigarettes and tobacco are smuggled into Canada from the United States. , Millions Maid Railroads that have been warned to stem this illegal flow of traffic include the Canadian National Railway, the Canadian Pacific, the Wabash, the New York Central, the' 1 Delaware & Hudson and the Pere Marquette. Officials said that organized smuggling trusts were operating, some making as high as $10,000,000 a year. Thieves Work Fast Bu United Press CRAWFORDSVILLE.
