[WOMAN AGAINST WOMAN SPICES ! SENATEBATTLE Bone Dry Rival Challenges Ruth Hanna McCormick in Illinois. BY FREDERICK C. OTHMAN Pr Staff Corre.pondrnt CHICAGO. Sept. s.—Two women, bitter political rivals, whisked the issues of the Illinois senatorial campaign tonight into a batter which promises to be the spiciest the United States ever has seen. Both assured their constituents that the batter would turn into cake, or more accurately their respective ascendency to the senate, at the November elections. The campaign already was without precedent in the middle west, because a woman, Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick, was running as the Republican senatorial nominee. It became unique in the whole nation today when woman, Mrs. Lottie O'Neil, announced that she* would run as an independent against Mrs. McCormick and the only man in the race, Senator James Hamilton Lewis, Democrat. Enters as Dry Mrs. O'Neil, Illinois' pioneer woman legislator, said she was afraid Mrs. McCormick was mixing a fruit cake, a damp one, with brandy in it. So Mrs. O’Neill said she would prepare a political cake herself, one decorated with white ribbons, the dryest possible. Mrs. O’Neill, a pretty blonde woman still in her 40s, will be supported by the Anti-Saloon League and other dry leaders throughout the state. Mrs. McCormick, somewhat older, but none the less attractive personally, so far has had nothing to say about the prohibition question. When she won the primary election, most of the voters assumed that she was dry. And then when she found herself running against the veteran and dripping wet Lew is, some of the voters, as exemplified by Mrs. O'Neill, decided that maybe Mrs. McCormick might have some damp, or at least dampish tendencies after all. Mrs. McCormick Wrathy Mrs. O'Neil's announcement was 60 sudden that Mrs. McCormick so far has made no statement concerning her. The latter still w'as “hopping mad" anyway over a senatorial investigation into her campaign expenditures, and as such was telling the voters downstate all about the flitting detectives, the mysterious robberies and the strang women in the plot, if that was what it was. While the two women thus were mixing their political batter so vigorously, Senator Lewis carefully was remaining out of the way, so as not to get splashed by flying pieces of the mixture. The senator said he would open his campaign actively next Wednesday, and until then would refrain from commenting on the cakebaking activities of his feminine rivals. ‘STATE VS.’ STIRS FEAR Defendant in Intoxication Case Had Vision of 3,500,008 Foes. Bv United Press GARY, Ind., Sept. s—ln a tight against one other person, Joseph McMahon felt he had an equal chance, but when his opponents became too numerous, he gave up. When Prosecutor Ellis Bush charged him with intoxication, McMahon came into court prepared to fight the case. He took his turn before the judge and waited. Finally his case came up. “State of Indiana vs. Joseph McMahon,” droned the clerk. Visions of a man to man fight against the wiles of the prosecutor faded and in its place arose a picture of the entire state, three and one-half million persons, fighting him. “The odds are too great, I’ll plead guilty,” McMahon said. Thieves Leave Loot B v Times Snecinl MUNCIE, Ind., Sept. s.—Chicken thieves, operating near here, went to much trouble for no reward. Sheriff Fred Puckett arrived at a farm house south of the city to find the thieves had fled, after filling up nine sacks with young chickens. None of the chickens was injured. Largest Delinquent Sale Bv United Pres* NEWCASTLE. Ind., Sept. s.—The largest amount of city property—4oo pieces in all —ever sold to satisfy delinquent street and sewer assessments, went under the sheriff’s hammer here. Assessment for the property was only $1.50 to $35 in some cases, but owners were unable to pay it or had forgotten to do so. Rat Bites Sleeping Man Bv United Press WARSAW, Ind., Sept. 5.—A bite on an ear awakened Harold Shepler, city fire truck driver, this morning, and blood poured from the wound. A rat had gained entrance to the municipal building and attacked the sleeping fireman.
