by Arthur Brisbane HAPPY LITTLE OCTOPUS TORTURING WITNESSES WATER FINE, IN SPOTS THt FAMILY OF FIVE

Not so long ago the government became much excited because Standard Oil was supposed to be worth almost “ a billion dollars” and chopped the big octopus up into several small pieces. Each went its separate way, a little octopus on its own account. Now Mr. Teagle, head of Standard Oil of New Jersey, one of the several brothers and sisters, says his company made in 1929, $120,912,794. That amounts to five per cent on $2,400,000,099 and Mr. Teagle says that if the oil industry had been wiser in its method he would have made a great deal more. ' b 1 ’ The Jugoslavian K-ng, Alexander, is accused o fallowing police to torture political prisoners. One brought to court in a wheel chair says he was beaten .tied with ropes, whipped with canes, at intervals, all night long. Other prisoners were treated in a similar fashion. Civilization, in some places, in oihers makes progress. Not long ago men accused were tortured everywhere, to make thenTtelJ what they knew. Torture is no longer legal. When Queen Elizabeth decided to cut off the head of her lover, Essex, she was praised for her restraint in not having to put him to torture. His abject submission arid fear of things he might have said under torture about the woman* whom he indiscreetly described as an ugly old hunchback, may have caused the unusual gentelness. If you are still in the stock market or hovering on the edge, like a small boy asking “How is the water?” know that just now “the waler is fine," in spots. Old Fafner, the money dragon, in addition to his pile of gold, has in his interior a gigantic mass of undigested securities. He is still alive but certain groans indicate that he is having trouble in spots where the securities w-ere fed to him in millions of shares at a time. Doctor Tucker, of the U. S. Naval hospital at Norfolk discovers fruits and vegetables “five good germs,” called “ the family of five.” They give health and strength, supplying vitamins, life elements essential to existence. They are missing in green fruits and die when fruit decays, making It poisonous. They are not injured by heat and exist in canned fruits and vegetables. A vitally important discovery. \ The League of Nations appoints a special commission of two Swedes and one Dutchman to study the historic problem of the wailing wall in Jerusalem, cause of so much bitterness between Jews and Arabs. The Arabs have one of their most important places of worship immediately adjoining the wailing wall, where Jews from all over the world gather to lament the fall of Jerusalem. • Arabs have been in possession of Jerusalem for centuries ever since they beat the Crusaders. And. according to their Koran, it is their holy city also. There is no universal national feeling in India. Mohammedan’s hate Hindus and vice versa. There are tens of millions of both. The native born Indians in the British army fight for Britain against their brothers “loyally." Three hundred million Asiatics in Indian are kept in hand by only 200,000 Britishers o nthe spot, fewer than one-tenth of 1 per cent Mr. Macauley, head of the Canadian Sun Life Assurance company expects our stocks to regain soon 60 per cent of the losses made in the big 1929 break. He thinks that 1931 probably, 1932 surety, will see “the 1929 peak once more."

The great gambling house at Monte Carlo is sad. Last year's profits amounted to only 575 per cent, lowest in years. That compares well vyith the interest rate on a government bond or dividends on legitimate industrial stocks. But it isn't much for the gambling house. That 575 per cent interests those that are foolish enough to gamble on horse racing ,in gambling houses or otherwise. So called "honest games” are arranged to, yield the “house” a certain profit of about 40 per cent o nevery dollar bet You can imagine what dishonest games make. Many remember, when the Panama canal was suggested, how the gigantic sum staggered imagination. Wo lent forty times that sum to Europe to helpthe process of killing and staggered nobody but the little people that sold Liberty bonds far below par.

NO WITNESS APPEARS VS C. BRILLHART Embezzlement Charges Against South Bend Financier Dropped For lack of witnesses the embezzlement case against C. B. Brillhart of South Bend was dropped in court Tuesday. 1 ' Following an investigation by the state securities commission, last March, officers of the commission alleged that through fake promotion enterprises. Brillhart had embezzled $150,000 from residents of northern Indiana. Brillhart .together with his. wife and her daughter, was in Miami at the time of the investigation. He was brought home to South Bend and released under $10,900 bond. The case came to trial Tuesday of this week, at which time F. A. ecker of Walkerton refused to testify against Brillhart, which refusal caused the collapse of the embezzlement charge against Brillhart. Ledecker is said to have been re-imbursed for bonds which he turned over to Brillhart. •• ’ Brillhart has a summer home near Waco and has had part in several business deals in Syracuse, among these being the merger of the local phone company with the Bell Telephone Company in 1)27, and the Maxwelton Manor project. . Last March, at-the time of his arrest, it was learned that Mrs. Maddison McPherson had accepted Maxwelton Manor bonds and others in part payment for 80 acres of ground necessary to the Maxweltton project. In later business deals, she said she had accepted stock in C. B. Brillhart i Co., and had turned over the bonds to Brillhart for which he gave interim notes. In spite of her $5,000 loss Mrs. McPherson was not called upon to testify Tuesday. Ledecker seems to have been the only one involved in the money losses which started the investigation, who could bring charges against C. B. Brillhart, Co,, as all others who said they lost money had not brought charger before the elapse of the statutory limit of two-years. It is recalled by those who have had business dealings with Brillhart, that he sold bonds for C. B. Brillhart & Co., the “Co.” having since become defunct, which it is understood started the investigation by the state securities commission this spring.

LOCAL GIRL SCOUTS AT CAMP THIS WEEK . Eight Girl Scouts, chaperoned by Miss Peggy Smith, left yesterday morning for a week’s camping on Lake Papakeetchie. Through the’ efforts of J. H. Fleming, they were able to get a cottage there. The girls plan to stay but a week, as they are paying the expenses with the S2O raised by bake sales this past winter. They expect to enjoy swimming chiefly, as fishing for anything but catfish and dogfish is forbidden until next month. Miss Smith is chaperoning the Scouts this year, as Miss Stuckman who did have charge of the local Girl Scouts was forced to resign in account of other duties which interferred with this work, and the girls at present have'no scout master. Those who went to camp yesterday were: Shirley Miles, Martha and Edna Leacock, Gertrude ;and Edna Fleming, Margaret Smith, Maxine Halloway, Miriam Peffley. Harriet Bachman expects to go to their cottage to spend the week with them. The girls wanted to take with them Bud, Smith's big St. Bernard dog, but decided not to as they came to the conclusion he would make too great inroads in to their expense budget.

ROCKY ROAD OF ROMANCE ENDS AT LAST AT ALTAR IN SYRACUSE

The story of the young couple who were married at the Methodist church Saturday evening by Rev. A. J. Armstrong, is the story of the rocky road of romance which ended at the altar. Several years ago when the Armstrong’s were located at Fortville, Miss Vivian Humbles and Perry Bixler became, friends. On being teased by Rev. Armstrong who often asked the young man when he would get to perform the wedding ceremony, Mr. Bixler issured the minister when he did get married. Rev. Armstrong would be asked to officiate. Last Friday Rev. Armstrong received a message from Fortville that the young couple would reach Syracuse Friday evening for the wedding service. Friday evening at the hour when they should have arrived, there came instead, a message from Marion, Ind. that they couldn’t reach Syracuse until the following day. It seems that shortly after leaving

WILLIS WILL NOT ASK FOR RECOUNT Grant B. Willis, who was a candidate for the Republican nomination of treasurer of Kosciusko county at the primary election, and who was defeated by two votes, will not ask for a recount of the ballots, he stat, ed today. In his statement to the Syracuse Journal, Mr. Willis said: “It is true that many of my friends over the county have urged me to ask for a recount of the election returns, but I feel that in counting the returns the various election boards used their conscientious judgment and on the face of the returns it would seem I was defeated by two votes, so I shall let my case rest with the decision rendered by the board. “I do want to take this opportunity however to thank my friends and the Republicans of Kosciusko county for the splendid support they rendered me and to assure all that I am a Republican and shall always be at the service of the party.' * < Mr. Willis, who president of the People’s Bank of Leesburg, first came to this county ten years ago. He is being commended as a square shooter for his decision in this matter. Election returns show that outside of Warsaw, Willis received 1,476 votes, Leonard 1,215 votes and Goshert 1,199 votes. Within jthe city of Warsaw, Willis received 307; Leonard 400 and Goshert 586 votes. ■ o The diary of L A Neff shows that Syracuse had a heavy frost a year ago today ( and that ice Xroxe then.

Fortville, the car Bixler was driving had a flat tire. Then engine trouble made Mr. Bixler think a new gasket was needed. This was added to the ear’s equipment. But when Marion was reached they discovered a bearing was burned out and that it could not be fixed until the next day. The garage man there assured the young couple there w'ere ministers in Marion who often performed wedding ceremonies, but No, they had planned to be married by Rev. Armstrong, and didn’t intend to have their minds changed by burned* out bearings. The garage man invited these would-be newly weds to be guests of himself and Wife, Friday night. Late Saturday afternoon they reached Syracuse - They spent the week end at Armstrong’s, starting off on their wedding trip from Syracuse. Next week they will return to North Webster, where M.

TOWN BOARD HEARS CITY WATER 0. K. Additional Mains To Be Laid—Board Told Os Radio Complaints At its meeting Tuesday evening, the Town Board heard that the city water is now satisfactory; it awarded the work of laying the water mains on North Harrison and Boston Streets, to C. W. Howard. It had the clerk write on the minutes that no taps should be made on any water line without permits; and heard a copy of an Ordinance declaring radio disturbance a ndisance, which was presented by C. R. Hollett. The sample of the city water taken April 25, before the intake to the mill race was cut off, proved unsatisfactory. The analysis ofthe sample taken May 5, after the intake to jhe race had been cut off, proved satisfactory for: drinking purposes. C. W. Howard was awarded the work of laying the extensions to the water mains ,on North Harrison and Bostoh streets, and will do all of .the work with the except: h'of rigging the ditches, which > wiiT Ue done by the city. The Town Board •;...- > ■• c into the r.eieafter all water uders must have permits from the city clerk before making new taps or additional taps in any water main, or water line on private premises. This was done so that no one could use more city water than that for which he paid. All plumbers are to receive notice of this action of the board. No action was taken on the copy of the ordinance in effect in V\ abash, which was presented by C. R. Hollett. This ordinance -declares radio disturbance a nuisance and calls for punishment for offenders. The town board thought this particular ordinance was too stringent, but iij the general discussion which followed, the board learned of localities in Syracuse, where, radio owners suspected, radio disturbance was deliberately planned. Mr. Hollett spoke of being called out-on Huntington street to locale disturbance there. When he would arrive in the locality of the disturbance, it would cease. On his return to his shop, the same radio owners would phone him again, stating the disturbance had begun again. The board members, decided that if planned radio disturbances are discovered, action will be taken declaring such instruments are nuisances, and punishment will be meted out to the offenders.
