1 ATTORNEY CROWE IS BUSY CHIOCAGO, June 10—Determined that insanity shall not be used as a gateway from the gallows, Robert E. Crowe, states attorney, today i pieced together a chain of evidence ! designed to prove the sanity of NaI than Leopold and Richard Loeb, coli lege graduates and scions of wealthy ! families, who confessed to kidnaping and killing Robert Franks, 14-year-old school boy. Squads of officers from the office of State’s Attorney Robert E. Crowe invaded the University of Chicago campus today in search of students able to testify that Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, confessed slayers of Robert Franks, 14-year old school boy, were sane. Believing that their case against Leopold and Loeb is “absolute,” Crowe’s aides started a secondary “defense against the defense.” Assured that Clarence Darrow, chief defense counsel, will attempt to save the two young college graduates from the gallows by proving them insane, the state is making effort to refute the testimony of alienists. “We will get as many college friends of these boys as possible,” an atache of Crowe’s office said, ‘to tell what they know of the habits of Leopold and Loeb. We are sure that their stories will bear weight with a trial jury and will show that the murderers are of sound mind. “Testimony of those who knew Loeb and Leopold should mean much more than so-called expert alienists.” Crowe’s staff, meanwhile announced they had new evidence against the young intellectuals who “just for the fun of it” kidnapped and killed young Franks. The ‘new evidence,” it was said, consists of pencil scribbled notes, written by both Leopold and Loeb when their confessions were being read. Each took notes of the other’s confession, in order to check back on slight discrepancies. These notes, it was explained, are in the youth’s own handwriting and will be admitted as evidence even though the trial judge should throw out the actual confession as evidence. The notes, much like those taken by college students at a classroom lecture, were written hastily and abbreviated as the confessions were read to them. Loeb listened attentively to Leopold’s confession, making memoranda of points on which he differed!. Leopold did the same when j Loeb’s confession was read. In their confessions each claimed it ! was he who drove the “death car," j the automobile in which Franks was j kidnapped and slain. In their “notes” each boy entered denial of the other’s

claim.

TOURIST IS ROBBED OF AUTOMOBILE

(Continued from Page 1)

Mr. Davis lost his hat and coat, Mrs. Davis had neither hat nor coat and Miss Davis was almost left barefooted, having on only a pair of light bedroom slippers. She had no wraps left. John Pearson was wearing his hat, but his coav was taken away. Officers believe the robber turned south on State Road 32 when he reached that road, but no clew has been found so far as to just which way he did go after the robbery. The Ford oar had a tire cover with a Rosedal^ agency's name on it and it was thought the license plates had been issued in the vicinity of Terre Haute and that the car had been stolen as it was in splendid condition.

CLINTON FALLS The Sunday school convention will be held at the Bethel M. E. church, Sunday, June 16. Fred Boswell, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Boswell, died at the Methodist hospital at Indianapolis.

Mrs. Elizabeth Nevins and Mrs. E. C. Dicks were in Terre Haute Monday on’ business.

THE CURTAIN GOES UP ON CONVENTION

(Continued from Page 1)

excuse for being there, but not enough to worry anybody. Promptly at 11 a. m., while there were still great bare patches among the delegates’ seats, and the late comers struggleil for places in the visitors’ galleries, John T. Adams of Iowa, the silver-haired chairman of the Republican National Committee, moved his wrist, and let his gavel fall. Then he began to beat with it, a patient, steady beat, demanding order from ami'i the chaos. Slowly, like unruly schoolboys, the delegates subsided to that condition of comparative silence, which is the nearest a national convention ever comes to being “in order.” In the press section wires began a subdued clicking, and almost silent typewriters moved in a steady rhythm. William Jennings Bryan’s bald head shone like a lighthouse within a hirsute sea, as he, staunch old Democrat, prepared to report the dome: of his friends, the en-

emy.

Finally, quiet is achieved. Adams introduces a reverend gentleman, and America’s tradition of invoking the Divine presence and blessing are carried out. As the “Amen” dies to silence, the band crashes into the sth ring strains of “The Star SpangUd Banner,” and with thousands of individuals and personal noises that conjoined, sound like a nation struggling to its feet, the assemblage stands up

and sings.

From then on the convention becomes on the part of its presiding officers, a continuous and futile struggle to achieve order and quiet sufficient to permit the transaction of business. Tie gavel pounds ceaselessly, wearily, as though recognizing the futility of projecting its weak reverberations of sound against that mighty cacophony out beyond the chairman’s stand. Poor gavel! Before the convention finally dies into silence, it will have been pounded well nigh shapele s and the heavy block upon which t beats will be dented

and worn with punishment.

At last, however, Adams gets the ear of the convention long enough to notify it that it is to pose, like a good boy, for its picture; ami it does, while within creamy muslin smoke bags scattered all around the hall there come sudden flashes and the photographers rush away to develop the panoramic pictures which presently will be on sale at the exits. Another interlude of mild hubbub and then Adams in a brief speech, formally opens the convention and directs George B. Lockwood, secretary of the national committee, to read the formal call, which is the warrant for this gathering of the hosts. The con-

vention is moving on.

Then is presented the slate of proposed temporary officers, headed by j the name of T. E. Burton, a Cleve-

yell, they yell. Burton is not one to be moved to self-consciousness by that; his long, rather grim face masks completely whatever stage-fright or other tingling of the emotions he may feel. And presently they let him j speak. Burton’s job is to welcome the dele- | gates to Cleveland and Ohio, and then to sound for them the keynote of the campaign . His speech has already been given the approval of President Coolidge and other leaders; it will contain no surprises for the leaders, but will be punctuated with frequent opportunities for yelling, stamping, cheering, whistling and handclapping from the floor. He mentions President Coolidge. The crowd goes wild. He names Warren Harding. There is a subdued ' quality to the applause, as when one j speaks of the lately dead. He speaks , of the party—that something which has called them here today—and they seize the opportunity, as he knew beforehand they would, to give the party a rousing cheer, and the speaker a breathing spell. Burton finishes. The convention must keep moving, though not too fast. So the secretary is called on to read the names of the committees ! through which the convention will do its work. The most important of these is the Resolution Committee, which will report back the draft of the party platform. Committee rooms are assigned, and meeting hours announced. The delegates are getting more restless every minute. Some are leaving, beset by hunger—or thirst. (Out in Lake Erie a fleet of fast motorboats patrols to see that no contraband liquor is landed from Canada, just across the wa>u) Announcements that are only half heard are shouted into the growling confusion. In a little while there is nothing more to do. Somebody gets up and his lips move, and there is a moment’s byplay between the stage and the floor, and then, cutting through the noise comes the word that the convention is through until tomorrow at noon.

Constipation makes bright children di|| give them relief with Kellogg’s Bran

Constipation dulls the youthful mind ■—makes children backward in their studies—makes them listless—and san lead to serious diseases. Constipation is a dangerous disease. You cannot afford to tako chances in getting relief. You cannot afford to experiment or put off. Kellogg’s Bran brings relief—permanent relief if eaten regularly. Even in tho most chronic cases of constipation it is guaranteed to bring results. If it fails, your grocer will return your money.

of the convention, even to assistant doorkeepers and messengers. Sometime sombody is going to ask just what an assistant doorkeeper is, and thus precipitate a new issue. But for today there is to be no ripple upon the placidity of convention hartnony, and the slate is adopted amid a growing restlessness among the delegates. They are insatiat for sensation; they have come to yell and vent their emotions, and no puny chairman with a

punier gavel can deny them.

But presently, as Burton advances to the front, a figure clothed in dignity as in a cloak, they break into din that makes their previous clamor seem like silence. Given a chance to
