"Send these mugs out of here" Kang hesitated "What ic you afraid of' You've got your whole army out there. What I have to say Is for your ears alone " Kang said something in Chinese.

"Now—what you offer for this woman ?” "China.” Kang was startled. He stared at Kenyon a moment unbelievingly. He blinked and recovered. "Bit down, General." Kenyon pulled up a chair. "Thanks, General." "I listen." Kang was grave. Kenyon leaned impressively over the table. "Now you and 1 understand each other.

SIX DEAD. TMn MISSING AFIER FERRY BOAT CRASH LORI ENT, France, June 27, (UP) — Rivalry between ferryboat men, which spread to their passengers and caused daily side bets on a race across Lorient harbor, cost the lives of six men in a ferry boat collision, port authorities announced today. Two others were missing. The six dead were among 13 impri ned lietween decks when the ferry motorboat Prosperite was sunk 100 yard from its jetty by the ferry motorboat Marie Ange. Six others were injured. There were !)0 passengers, mostly factory workers, aboard the Prosperite. None aboard the Marie Ange was harmed. The rivalry between owners of the Prosperite and the Marie Ange had bi-on as keen as that among Missisippi steamboat men. Each morning and evening, factory workers who commuted across the harbor flocked to their favorite boat. They cheered, jeered and bet as the little craft puffed across to the opposite shore. Quick rescue work averted a major tragedy. Boatmen were on the spot of the collision within a few minutes and t< ok off the Prosperite’s passengers.

Mrs. Theresa Markovich failed to lead trumps through the bidder. To John Sikora, her partner, it was a crime unforgiveable. Without a word he drew a pistol and shot Mrs. Markovich three times. Then he turned and shot George Radulovich and Michael Jurak, the remaining players. He was subdued by two witnesses. Physicians said Mrs. Markovich and Radulovich may die.

SPIDER DEATHS CAUSE WORRY

SACRAMENTO, Cal., (UP) — Reports of extraordinarily large numbr-- of venomous black widow spiders have resulted in public health departments throughout the west issuing warnings to lie on the alert. Numerous cases of black widow spider bites have been reported and a few deaths have occurred. A mild winter and dry weather were conducive to development of the poisonous species. The black widow, so named because the female of the species devours her mate, has a large, round shiny black body resembling a shoe button. The long, sprawling legs may spread two inches. * • The most distinguishing mark is a red spot, somewhat in the shape of an hour glass, on the under side of the body. Poisons are not effective in ridding sections of the pest, but spraying crude oil, or creosote, into cracks is considered a helpful control procedure. When a person is bitten by a black widow, acute pain develops almost immediately in the region of the bite, and spreads to other parts of the body. Accompanying the pain there may be muscular contraction, difficult breathing, cold perspiration, nausea and an extreme rigidity of the abdomen. Fatalities are not common, but when death does occur, it usually comes swiftly—within 32 hours after the bite.

COMMERCIAL POSSBILITIKS POINTED OUT IN BK)K BY EXPRRRTS

CHAPEL HILL, N. C., OP)— In addition to providing new pa-in.* for the newspapens of the nat>n, a section of the southeastern foils may produce quinine for the pha-guicists. Commercial quinine, whicrpossesses much medical value is contained not only in the bark of the Cinchona tree which flourishes in Sou.h America, but also in the Georgufeark f South Carolina. Its effectives?; in curing malaria often has hieji demonstrated, according to l>i William Chambers Coker and Dr. latiry Roland' Totten, both professors >f botany at the University of Ninth Carolina,

Often referred to as Maiden’s Blushes, this is a sub-tro] cal tree which glows in the southea?'«m corner of South Carolina and S'nth ward into Georgia and Florida, t is remarkable not only for the curative properties, but also for the lieauty of its fl.rwers’ sepals which a e colored a vivid rose pink. Southern pine from which the newsprint is expected to be manufactured and many other rare and umieual varieties of trees from that particular section of the United States which, according to Dr. Coker and Dr. Totten, are not to be duplicated in any other similar part of the world, are treated* fully in their recent book “Trees of the Southeastern States", published by the University of Muh Carolina Press.
