HE JUST SITS AND WAITS AND GETSHIS MAN City Slicker Nabs Roll of Kentuckian: Kentuckian Nabs City Slicker. BY FREDERICK C. OTHMAN, l nited Prr* Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. Sept. 27—For five days and nights lie sat there, on the curb on Madison street, and thereby caught the thief who robbed him. caught the thug that him on the head. Th- 1- in effect is the big city saga of Flcert Webb, Kentucky mounts neer who came to Chicago to see th? .Vghts on the first trip he ever hi made from the fastness of his oM Kentucky home. Hardly had he arrived with SSOO in his pocket before he was accosted by a kindly stranger, who offered him a drink of good corn whisky” in a nearby alley. That happened last Saturday night. accepted the drink, the gtranger tapped him on the head with a blunt object. When Webb awoke he knew’ it was unnecessary to feel in his right pants pocket for the SSOO. He Sits and Waits So mumbling to himself about city KUckers and such, Webb arose painfully, obtained himself a soap box, planted it near the curb on Madison street and sat down to wait. Somewhere, he’d read that criminals always return to the scene of their crimes. Thus, thought Webb, jnaybe this strongarmer would come back too. Anyway, thought Webb further, he really had nothing better to do except wait for the return of the abducter of his 500. And wait is what Webb did. He Ct and waited and waited, and sat, inning each passerby. Sunday was uneventful. It was a pice cool day, so Webb merely sat on his box while the curious stared at him. Webb stared back, with a purpose behind his stare. Orders Meals Monday Webb got hungry, but he couldn’t leave his post. So he sent a small boy to bring him a sandwich and a bottle of milk. While he munched his sandwich and drank his milk, he kept up his vigil, but topo avail. Tuesday the Kentuckian's eyes began to look a bit glassy. He’d been sitting awake on his box at night, tod. So Webb stared indiscriminately ?t both men and women passersby. It was easier than trying to differr -fate. One woman thought he was ? tempting to ogle her. She threat--7d to call a policeman, but didn’t. V -bb was gratetful. Wednesday it rained, poured down torrents off Webb's hat. into his! ~k and down his shoes. But Webb ; -""ained on his box, examining' '-’estrians. He was glad of the j ain; it was easier to stay awake.

And then from afar Webb spied a jaunty figure sailing down the street. When the figure approached Webb and his box, Webb up and

Bu United Press NEW YORK, Sept. 27.—Pat Crowe, who thirty years ago kidnaped little Eddie Cudahy, son of the Omaha meat packer, and who since then has been something of a police character, was arrested again today. He was picked up for begging. Magistrate Gotlieb. in Tombs court, recognized Pat when he was brought before the bar. ‘You don’t look so good, Pat,” said the court. “No, I guess my luck’s changed.” answered the white-haired little man, who back in the 90’s was notorious as a train robber and yegg. “Here’s a dollar,” said the magistrate, handing Pat a crisp bill, “go out and get yourself something to eat. Then get out of town and stay out.”

MOSLEM CHIEF TO TAKE PARIS GIRLAS BRIDE Hindu of Vast Wealth Is Victim of Charms at First Sight. Bu United Press PARIS, Sept. 27.—The Aga Khan, spiritual leader of 50,000,000 Indian Moslems, was busy today arranging for his marriage to Madeleine Carron, 29-year-old daughter of a Paris hotel proprietor. Mile. Carron’s parents practically confirmed that she intends to marry the Aga Khan in November. Both principals to the romance were at Aix-les-Bains and were said to be trying to complete their marriage arrangements in secrecy. The Aga Khan has given up entertaining at h’.s luxurious villa victoria. The bridegroom-to-be is one of the most colorful figures of the east. Besides being the spiritual chief of Indian Moslems by virtue of direct descent from Hazarat All, the first imaun. son-in-law of the prophet Mahommed, he is tremendously rich, owns a stable of horses that win almost daily on the English and French turf, and is a welcome figure in Deauville and Monte Carlo society. He has been a widower s*nce 1926, and when he saw Mile. Carron on a street in Chamberry, it was a case cf love at first sight. He found she took tea daily at a certain tearoom and contrived to meet her there. Three days later he proposed. The Aga Khan told newspaper interviewers today there were still several questions of religion to be settled before marriage.

The song of Solomon, considered throughout the ages as one of the gems of literature, was suppressed totally as being likely to corrupt the mind cf youth. Other eliminations included the eleventh chapsr of the second bock of Samuel, the first chapter of the first book of Kings and most of the verses of Genesis. All passages which might cause the mind of youth to question the virtue of Biblical characters were eliminated from the idyll of Ruth and Boaz. and all the verses were suppressed which described the way Abigail affronted her churlish husband. The Sunday school version likewise omitted the description of the : manner in which David made her : his wife. KDKA WILL BE MOVED Pioneer Radio Broadcast Station to Locate at Saxonburg, Pa.

Old doctors idea • still helping conquer conStipationX^V
DR. CALDWELL made a startling discovery shortly after he graduated from medical school back in 1875. He found great numbers especially older men and women—suffering from constipation, who were taking harsh laxatives and purgatives. So he concluded that many things people take for constipation do more harm than good, and physicians of today are of the same opinion. This thought made Dr, Caldwell conduct a search, and out of it
came the prescription which made him famous. Over and over he wrote it, when he found people bilious, headachy, out-of-sorts, weak or feverish; with coated tongue, bad breath, no appetite or energy. Its ac-

tion was so thorough even in the most obstinate cases, ar.d yet so gentle with women and children. The product you get from your drug store, today, when you ask for Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is put up exactly in accordance with this prescription. It has become the world’s most popular laxative. It is a pleasant tasting mixture of fresh herbs and other pure ingredients; it is a real corrective for constipation for men, women and children.
