HICKMAN ON Paße 13 of "Captain Archer's Daughter,'’ you read that "in hrr comfortable home Miss Archer dreamed through the cold goodness of her twenties." And in the same paragraph, you will be startled to read —"Then suddenly without word of warning, without rousing the slightest suspicion in Bowport or in the mind of the kind father Miss Martha Archer not only kicked up her heels but she jumped the fence of propriety and vanished down the primrose path." And then this—"One dav she. was an old maid whose perfection scared ofl every man who came, near her. The. next, she was sailing away with one of the deni's seed, to find a parson to tie the knot.” Now, I believe, you know' a great deal about. Martha, the "heroine” of Margaret Deland's new novel, "Captain Archer's Daughter." published by Harper & Brothers, and sells for $2.50. Here is a story of Captain Archer, w ho made, his home in Bowport, on the New England coast, and of his daughter Martha, who was too “carefully” reared by her mother when very young. Martha had one successfu rebellion when very young. She hurled a hymn book at a very strait-laced minister while he was preaching. But the scandal that act created in no way compared to the fuss kicked up when Martha ran away with a sea captain. Isadore Davis. Davis was able to make many women feel “the scorch of the. blue fire” of his eyes. As the author describes him—“this handsome man was not only as elemental as a flame; he was as vulgar as honest earth.” And this man made Martha love as she never dreamed of love; forced her to terrible suffering and then compelled her to return to Bowport with her son, Young Cap, and became a chaste icicle. And does Young Cap inherit the ‘‘blue fire” of his father? Read "Captain Archer's Daughter.” It is beautifully and honestly written.

LuYAL PAIR OF ! WOMEN SAVE CURTIS’ CAUSE Vice-President’s Victory Is Due to Efforts of Sister and Mabel Willebrandt. MRS. GANN IS HEROINE Wages Whirlwind Battle to Keep Second Place for Her Brother. BY MAXINE DAVIS United Preit Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, June 17.—Two women did much to save Charles H. Curtis from the limbo of discarded ViceI Presidents. His fighting sister. Mrs. Dolly Gann, carried on a campaign for months, with a driving whirlwind
inish, to have Tim retained as •unning mate of President Hoover. Mabel Walker Wille bra ndt, heroine of 1928, and loyal despite differences with other members of the party, wsnt to bat when defeat seemed imminent for Curtis Thursday, helped prevail upon the Penn-

sylvania delegation to change its vote, and give the ageing Vice-Presi-dent renomination. Curtis’ entire career has been affected by the political loyalty and support of women. Mrs. Alvin T. Hcrt, vice-chairman of the Republican national committee, was largely responsible for his place on the ticket four years ago, when she made a fight characteristically more effective than spectacular to name him as second on the Hoover slate.
Sister Never Falls Him The corner stone of his whole life has been his sister's unfailing and militant support. She did not fail him here. At the close of a countrywide speech-making campaign of months, she came to Chicago to cry*stallize and add backbone to his support. She began her work within the hour of her arrival, and never ceased her frantic efforts un-
til the balloting began. All during the convention she sat in her box, consoling, cajoling, rallying reluctant delegates to her brother's banner. That she was fully aware of the serious ness of the situation often was reflected in her face. When nom-

inations for VicePresident began, she leaned forward with her hands on the railing, clasped so tight that they showed w’hite at the knuckles. Not until the Pennsylvania delegation changed its vote did her face relax into a smile. When New York gave its tremendous vote to General Harbord. Dolly saw' the years behind, all the years of struggle for her brother. First she was his secretary. She nursed his invalid wife, was a second mother to his children, and climaxed her career of helpfulness in her Herculean fight for his renomination. Chilly Toward Press Mrs. Gann and her husband were chilly toward the press after the "victory," and he complained that he had been called "Mr. Dolly Gann" and that Mrs. Gann had been “pestered.” Mrs. Gann at first indicated she would not comment, but finally observed that she "never was worried about the result for one instant." Mrs. Willebrandt stepped suddenly into the breach. She had planned to second Curtis’ nomination, but gave up this lip service for more practical activity. Her foray into the administration's battlefield was unexpected, for Mrs. Willebrandt claims she has given up politics.

ZOO ANIMALS HIDE HATE, KILL IN FLASH
Mask Blood Lust for Months, Then Yield to Murder Impulse
BY WILLIAM ENGLE Time* Stiff Writer 'Coomfht. IMS, bv The New York World-Telestram Corooration.t YORK. June 17. — Murder is not common among the cats. But Lopez’ heart was all black. The great jaguar seemed glad when Dr. William* T. Hornaday, then director of the zoological park in the Bronx, reached in and stroked his head, and his willingness to romp made him seem eager to be an amiable pet. He deceived them all. they confessed later, and they all agreed with Dr. Hornaday that no cat would put in the whole year merely pretending to be good-natured. For reward they ordered a mate for him. She arrived, a female as fine as any jaguar ever brought to town, and
as an experiment her cage was installed beside Lopez’. Their affair seemed romance at first sight. Lopez tried to caress her through the bars, and she reciprocated. Lopez courted her, and she was pleased. Two days of that and Dr. Hornaday thought it would be cruel to keep them apart longer and that Lopez deserved no more of solitary confinement. The two sets of doors that separated them were drawn open. Proudly and confidently, the bride walked toward her bridegroom. Outside the bars zoologists watched intently. a a a SHE had not been through Lopez’s door a second before the pretense of a year fell from him. Blood lust that had been hidden beneath sycophancy was bare. Without warning, he sprang and his jaws closed upon her throat. As his rush bore her to the floor, the attendants swarmed in. They spiked him. They beat him. They even tried to brain him. But Lopez did not once let go. He held her in his jaws until her cervical vertebrae were crushed and she was dead. That, in the criminology of Bronx Park, was first-degree murder; perfidious Lopez, they decided. for a whole year had simulated amiability, awaiting his time and his victim. Between that and second-de-gree murder the line of difference is finely drawn, as it is outside the park, but the crime of lesser degree is recognized definitely. An historic case reveals the distinction. * For seven years two fine and full-grown polar bears nad lived together in an amity which seemed only deepened by almost continuous buffoonery; they boxed, bit and tusseled until they drew blood. And when onp died, the other seemed the loneliest creature in the park. Carl Hagenbeck heard about it, and offered a splendid female as mate to the survivor, but the park authorities declined; they thought that if the lone one did not kill a stranger at once, he would wear her out in time with his rough play. HAGENBECK (who had iVI handled about forty polar bears to my one) replied with the assurance that in his opinion all would be well,” Dr. Hornaday reported in his "The Minds and Manners of Wild Animals.” "As convincing proof of the sincerity of his views, he offered to lose half the purchase price of the female bear in the event that my worst fears were realized. “I asked the opinion of our head keeper of bears and after due reflection he said: “ ‘Why, no. I don’t believe he’d
HOOVER CALLS OFF JOURNEY TO COAST
BY HENRY F. MISSELWITZ United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, June 17.—President Herbert Hoover, formally nominated for re-election, virtually has decided to cancel his proposed trip to California next month. The President had been desirous of going to Los Angeles to open the Olympic games and it had been suggested that he receive the formal notice of his renomination at his Palo Alto home, where he was notified in 1928. It is indicated strongly at the White House that Mr. Hoover reluctantly has decided it would not be best to make the transcontinental journey at this critical time. It is expected that the President will receive the notification and deliver his address of acceptance either at the White House or at his Rapidan fishing camp, and will direct his re-election campaign from those two places. A definite decision on these plans awaits further conferences with his
permitted to curtail his expenditures as too expensive. Proponents of the tax bill during its discussion in congress contended that the tax was the most fair of any proposed, since it was levied only on those using the taxable articles as a “take it or leave it’’ proposition—no take, no tax. Although this contention may remain true in principle, there are a number of items where the ‘•take" is almost impossible to avoid, and, likewise, the tax. For instance: Thousands of families own au- ' tomobiles and drive an average of 1,000 miles a months necessitating a complete change of oil at least once a month. Motor oil is taxed at 4 cents a gallon. One refill is six quarts and 6 cents tax. a a a Gasoline wui be taxed at 1 cent a gallon, to be paid by the reflr.er, but there is strong probability that the tax will be passed to tlje consumer in the form of increased prices. Conservatively estimating the family consumption for one car at five gallons a week results in a total monthly tax of 20 cents, i Toilet preparations art taxed at

At once she and the bereft one fraternized. They licked each other's noses and ate meals by side. At night they slept close together, lit,hough bars separated them. They convinced every one after three weeks of this that calm domesticity lor them had been predestined. Nevertheless, before they wereallowed together the keepers pre-

Sanders, of Terre Haute, formerly was secretary to President Coolidge. The President’s Rapidan camp may be expected to be the scene of frequent and prolonged political conferences during the summer. Added telephone, telegraph and radio broadcasting facilities are being installed there. The President may make several of his campaign speeches from the camp. Aside from the fact the camp offers a plac# of relaxation during what perforce must be a trying summer for the President, it has the advantage of semi-privacy. It would be possible to hold political conferences there at which persons of high importance could come and go with slight chance of being seen.

The twice-a-day habit of teeth brushing has been observed thoughtfully by placing dentifrices outside of the class of toilet preparations, with only a 5 per cent tax.

pared for trouble. They oiled the sieeping den door so that if the female should dash for safety someone could instantly slide the barrier and shut her in. They armed themselves with pike-poles, long iron bars, lariets and long planks a foot wide. "Open her door, a foot only, and let her put her head out. Keep him away.” Dr. Hornaday admitted he was apprehensive as he gave the order. But the female bear was trusting. She pushed her head through, and as the male stood back awaiting her she struggled to hurry in.
GIRL BANDIT IS GIVEN 4 YEARS
Guilty Plea Is Entered by Lelota Belmore. By Times Special DANVILLE, Ind., June 17.—Next four years of the life of Miss Lelota Belmore, 17, of 242 South Gray street, Indianapolis, will be spent in the Indiana Girls’ school at Clermont, as a result of her plea of guilty in Hendricks circuit court here Thursday to a charge of bank banditry. She was committed to the school by Judge A. J. Stevenson. The girl confessed that she accompanied Earl Northern to Amo on April 27, when he robbed the Citizens State bank of $1,400. She received SSO of the loot. Northern is serving a twenty-five-year term in the state reformatory. William Behrens and his wife, Margaret, also charged wj.th bank robbery, are awaiting trial here.
If the writing of checks is confined to monthly bills only, the average man will write at least fifteen in that period, and each will be taxed 2 cents, another item of 30 cents. O U tt T TNLESS he presents payment of the bills in person, the checks will have to be mailed. Under the new law-, first-class postage has been increased to 3 cents. Estimating that five other letters will be written during the month, the twenty letters will be taxed 20 cents. The next four taxable items might not apply to all famines, and, if not, the net result will be made up under some other provision. Amusement for one week for tw-o persons, at a 50-cent admission charge, totals $4, subject to 10 per cent tax. another 40 cents. The expenditure of 25 cents a week for candy will add 2 cents to the monthly tax bilL One long distance telephone call to tell grandma that you and the kids will be out to dinner Sunday will boost the tax total 10 cents, since all calls under 50 cents bear a flat charge of that amount.
. “I would not for SSOO see such a thing again.” That is Dr. Hornaday's feeling about what then happened. BUB T7OR the mighty male was a white streak through the air. He lunged and the smaller female, dumfblinded for a moment, • was beyond retaliation. He pressed the advantage. He snapped and tore and chewed, and thereafter for twenty minutes. despite the defense of his victim and the attempts of keepers to divert his rage, he did not relent in the onslaught. Six frenzied. men tried to stop him. When in the first terrific attack, the female fell near the cage bars, they were able to beat him , upon the head, drive steel spikes into him. ram him with planks. But he thwarted them; he seized her. dragged her inward and down to the ice that covered the swimming pool, beyond their rea ch.

HOOSIERS RETURN, SORE AND WEARY
BY BEN STERN Indiana’s delegates to the Republican national convention returned to their homes today, tired and disappointed. For a few hours Thursday, there I w'as a feeling among the Hoosier delegates that Governor Harry G. j Leslie might get the call for the j vice-presidential nomination. Administration leaders, the night before, while the fight against the Hoover dry plank was under way, indicated that they were willing to talk business if Indiana stood by the administration. The next day leaders of the Illinois delegation, in loud praise of Indiana’s repeal vote, declared that the vote of their state and that of four others would follow Indiana's on the vice-presidency. It then was decided to cast the state’s thirty-one votes for Charles Curtis on the first ballot and, if he i couldn't make the grade, give the j total to Leslie on the second ballot.!

Calls costing over $2 will be taxed 20 cents. A birthday greeting by telegram at a transmission charge of 50 cents will be taxed 5 per cent, a comparatively light impost of 2Vz cents. The sum of the foregoing taxes is $1.68 monthly, a total of $20.16

and snared him. Another lanat trussed him. But it was too late. Just before they dragged him off. his teeth slashed through the jugular vein of the one who was to have been his mate and in two minutes she was dead. “Remember?” Peter Romanoff, keeper of the bears, echoed today, “i’ll never forget the crunching sound his jaws made That was the only time I ever heard Dr. Hornaday swear.” 808 YET that was not first degree murder, the zoologists con tended. The giant white bear had not plotted it, nor even contemplated it. His first impulse, they concluded, had been merely to Play. “Then the joy of combat seized him,” Dr. Hornaday reported, “and after that his only purpose was to kill.” Not even joy of combat enters into manslaughter at the park, although it is no less sanguinary than the heinous degrees of homicide. One of Dr. Raymond L. Ditmars’ extraordinary motion lectures provides an unsurpassed example. It lays down the canon of selfpreservation as observed by those natural enemies, the venomous cobra and the violent mongoose. He built a 'set to represent an opening in the jungle, got the serpent to feel at. home in the glassencased glade; and then turned the mongoose free to emerge through a hollow log/ „ Though the mongoose is something like a ferret (it is barred from the county because of the pcssbility of its breeding and menacing poultry) and seems far less sinister than the deadly reptile, it turned the tables on Its adversary. The cobra reared, spread its hood, was ready to strike its death blow. But in the instant as it poised the mongoose got it; the mongoose sprang, and grabbed it and bit the life out of it; its hypodermic fangs might as well have been loaded with water instead of with one of the deadliest of poisons. B B B MURDER penalties vary in Bronx Park, and they include death. Peter Romanoff knows more about that than any one else in town, for he has been in at the death of more big game than any other crack shot known here; he is as extraordinary a killer as ever came to New York. Probably h& holds the record for bagging the widest range of species—lions, pumas, tigers, bear, buffalo, antelopes, zebras, wolves, foxes and deer. “About everything, I suppose.” he said today, “except an antelope and an elephant.” Where did he get them? That question he answers glibly. "Most of them right behind the ear. . . A few right here, through the heart.” For, besides being keeper of the bears in Bronx Park, he is the park’s ace of riflemen, and he deals fairly both with the luckless ones doomed finally by age or infirmity and with the condemned animal murderers.
Indiana, would start the Leslie boom and, because of the widespread dissatisfaction with Curtis, other states were sure to join. Fear of administratin retaliation kept many of the delegations regular. Peculiarly enough, Indiana, most regular of regular states in the past, was the most important of the liberal group in this convention and the attending publicity has tended to raise it in the estimation of the forward looking delegations. taxi drivers talked about Indiana's courage and liberalism.

AIR OF GLOOM HANGS OVER G. 0. P. HOSTS . i , Anxiety Manifest as Throng Departs From Chicago Convention. PROHIBITION BIG WORRY Choice of Sanders Is Shock to Delegates; Sore Spots Over Curtis. BY RAYMOND CLAPPER United Press Staff Correspondent (Convriaht. 1933. bv United Press* CHICAGO. June 17.—The. Republican party set out today on its campaign fight to hold the White House for another four years. Beneath the party banner of President Hoover and Vice-Presi-dent Curtis, and with a prohibition plank taking the party out of the bone dry class, the workers turned homeward today from the national convention. There was some anxiety among the hosts as they marched forth into the battle of 1932. Everett Sanders. Indiana politician, one time congressman and later secretary to President Calvin Coolidge, took on today direction of the campaign under his appointment as chairman of the Republican national committee. He was selected in a national committee session at which full notice was given that funds are low and rations low for soldiers in the coming campaign.
Muttering* Over Curtis Delegates had been prepared J months ago for the inevitable re- : nomination of President Hoover. But many openly were dissatis- ! fled with the retention of VicePresident Curtis on the ticket this j year. There was some disappointment i also over the selection of Sanders i as chairman of the Republican na- ! tional committee. Certain leaders had hoped management of the Hoover campaign would be in the hands of a nationally knowm business man, : w'ho would be helpful not only in | throwing high-powered executive : efficiency into the campaign organ- | ization. but who would have many j contacts with prospective campaign | contributors. Money is coming hard this year, J. R. Nutt, treasurer, admitted. Republican leaders’ misgivings permeated the delegates and cast a cloud of depression over the entire convention. Only once was this mood thrown off. That was for a 1 few moments during the staged demonstration when President Hoover was proposed for renomination in the final session. No* One Is Satisfied Delegates, recognizing from the beginning that the renomination of President Hoover was certain, sought vent for their dissatisfaction in other directions. They found it partly in the prohibition fieht, which resulted in adoption of the administration modification plan, j which apparently satisfied neither the real wets nor the real drys. Mrs. Henry W. Peabody of Massachusetts, chairman of the Women’s National Committee for Law Enforcement, said that, "regardless of the kind words spoken for prohibition in the initial paragraphs of the plank, its reference to submission brands it as a repeal measure and dry women oppose it and will accept no compromise.” Wets described it as a "straddle.** Even some of the President’s intimate advisors appeared disturbed! over some features of the plank, particularly that which would give congress the right to prescribe method of sale and distribution of liquor in any state which abandon* prohibition. They foresaw possibilities of constant conflict between congress and local governments in such attemn* to prescribe details from Washington. Sanders’ Election I# Surprise Many delegates also voiced di*i satisfaction over the administra*. tion s attempt to retain VicePresident Curtis as the President's running mate. The final switch of Pennsylvania’s seventy-five votes after the roll call was completed gave Curtis the necessary majority. General belief existed that Charles G. Dawes would have been nominated had he not announced he would decline. This anti-Curti* movement developed after the convention met, and in face of the fact that President Hoover’s spokesmen here had made known they wished Curtis renominated. The election of Everett Sanders as national chairman to succeed Senator Fess surprised the delegates Sanders was sergeant-at-arms of the convention. A faithful lieutenant overnight was made the general of the Republican forces at the opening of what all acknowledge to b®i*he most difficult campaign since Actually, the real directing force of the campaign will be PostmasterGeneral Walter F. Brown of Ohio.
TWO GIRLS INJURED AS AUTO, TRUCK COLLIDE Flee Scene of Accident; Driver Arrested for Overloading Car.
