GARRISON MAN TAKES LIFE Cecil H. Taylor Commits Suicide, Message Says Cecil H. Taylor, aged 46, head at the Taylor-Baldwin general stores company at Garrison, committed sui- side today according to word re- eived by The Tribune from Garri- son this afternoon. Mr. Taylor, the message said, had sent his wife to Minot and was av iome alone when, he opigmitted the ret. He seated himself in a chair, placed the butt eng of a shotgun on another chair and pulled the trigger by using a ruler. He was shot through the heart and death was instantaneous. Death occurred between 10:30 and 11 a. m. Financial difficulties are believed responsible for the act. Mr. Taylor had extensive farming interests and was prominent in McLean county.

London, July 31.—America alone can bring about world peace. And it can do it only by calling a conference of all nationg for dis- armament on land, on sea and in the air. So ibelieves E. D. Morel, “fighting pacifist,” who has won many a couse over here. “The naval disarmament confer- ence in Washington in 1921,” Morel declares, “merely wag a start in the right direction. “But we need complete disarma- ment, not only on the seas, but on lend and in the air. “Hurope today resembles a drunken man smoking a cigar on a barrel of dynamite. The pres- ident of the United States; can are t the danger that threatens us all. “EUROPE RESEMBLES A DRUNKEN DANGER THAT, THREATEN S' F 1/ Iie if, Ty Wi i SHOULD DEMAND AWORLD CONFERENCE Of DISARMAMENT the Eien “And he can do it without in- volving his country either in the League of Nations or tie World Court of Justice. “All the cards are in America’s hands. The wpresident could put the case so clearly that no _re- sponsible government would dare refuse the call and face its own people.” It was largely through Morel’s speeches and books that oppres- sion of the natives in the rubber regions of the Belgian Congo was done away with. During the war he went to jail for six months for the technical offense of trying to send some of his books to the celebrated French pacifist, Romain Rolland, in Switz- erland. Had he been an American, that might have finished hig ca- reer. But in the last parliamentary election, the canny Scotsmen of ED. PEACE RESPONSIBILITY RESTS WITH U. S., SAYS BRITISHER o, A ¢ MOREL Dundee elected him by over 10,000 majority over Winston Churchill, one of the most noted of all British statesmen ’of the present genera- tion. “Many foolishly dreamed,” says Morel, “that out of all the war's hell would come a Utopian condi- tion in which racial, religious and national rivalries and bitterness would be ended. “Yet today there is more hatred in the world than ever. And the powerful armament interests are taking advantage of this, “We hear a great deal about Germany arming and drilling, but so is France. And the most vital threat to peace right now is the manner in which the Balkans are being supplied with the imple- ments for man-killing. “America is entitled to demand this wicked arfing of them shall cease.” STOCK BROKE body else in his department, but {his was because he had the heavy expense of a sick wife and con- sequently unusual incentive to work hard for more commissions. While be sold a lot of goods, he did it with wasteful expenditure of hia energies.’ Several other salesmen sold almost as much as he did with only about half the effort” As Frank Gilbreth says, “The ideal man to learn methods from is one so lazy that he works barely hard enough to avoid being fired.” Smelling Salts Fainting indicates that the’ ac tion of the heart has for some rea: son become disturbed, with the re sult that the blood is no longer properly and regularly pumped up to the brain. The essentigl fea- ture of “smelling salts” is the am- monia—the other ingredients being added to make the effect more pleasant—and when we sniff thie ammonia we irritate and stimulate a special group of nerve cells called|_ the “respiratory center,” situated at the base of the brain. This cen- ter, feeling irritated, immediately sends out a message to the lungs, telling them to take in more air to counteract the effects of the am- monia. So we are forced to breathe more deeply, and the oxygen that we thereby take in enriches the bidod, restarts the proper circula- tion to the brain, and so restores full consciousness, Perspiration of Doge Dogs sweat or perspire very ttle. The porelciogics! purpoge of perspiration seems to be the reg- ulation of the temperature of the body. But in the ease of the dog, as well as many other animals, the body temperature ts regulated by. respiration. After running a dog. breathes rapfdly—pants. ‘This has the same cooling effect as sweatiig would have. IS KILLED IN HOTEL PARTY New York,° July, 31.—Harry Mack, a stock broker, was killed in his room here following a party which lasted until midnight. A young woman who was alone with him when he shot himself and who call- ed herself Mabel Cook, said she was a hairdresser. Miss Cook who gave her years as 19, said the shooting was accidental. Mack had _ been playing with a loaded pistol and she asked Mack to put the pistol away because it frightened her. He opened the chamber and allowed several cartridges to fall to the floor, then with his finger on the trigger, said, “See, it is not loaded,” then he pulled the trigger again and there was a loud report. Mack was dead before the ambulance reached him. ALL IN THE FAMILY Kansas City, July 31—The wedding bells are clamoring noisily in Neal family. Claud V. Neal, 40, and Mrs. Nancy A.

I had been ‘ad- vised of the day when he wag to ; be released. The warden fixed a serious look upon me. “See here, Blake,” he said, “you have been a good man in your line, and I wish I could give some suggestions regarding Haley. Of course you, who made his fanioys capture ten’ years since, have never forgiven him for hiding the booty and keeping it hid.” “At least I know it Is hidden,” I declared with positiveness, “I am satisfied that when closely cor- nered, he disposed of his plunder in some safe secret place.” “That all, sounds reasonable,” nodded the warden. “The only.thing is, that while Haley has been not only our best behaved convict and close-mouthed as’a clam during the past year, he has changed.” “How changed?” I asked. “He has become qyéer. He shows lapse of memory. It would be a strange retribution, would it not,” | added the official insinuatingly, “it after all his cunning planding Haley had forgotten where he concealed that ‘plunder—hey?” “Zounds!” I could not refrain from remarking—“that would up- set all my fond calculations in- deed.” id if They were fond, those same, for a very superior reason. I was in love. More than that, I was in love with the daughter of John Marsh, and John Marsh was the then wealthy merchant from whom Haley had stolen a cool hundred thousand dollars, At the time of the deed the law- yer of Mr. Marsh paid me a five | hundred dollar reward for captur- ing the culprit. At the same time he advised me that. in case I re- covered the booty or any part of It, twenty-five per cent of the same should be mine. At the end of a few months I gave up hunting: for the hidden fortune—for ten years. At the end of the ninth year I sought out Mr. Marsh, He was no longer a capitalist. I found him living in a very humble way, sup- ported by the earnings of his daughter, Constance, a music teacher, ‘ When I recalled his former loss, he was aroused to desperate excite- ment. He offered me half of what I might secure, It was not this prospect of a munificent reward, however, that impelled me to perfect my plans with renewed diligence and fervor. It was because I had seen and now worshiped Constance Marsh. 1 think I fitst won her kindly atten- tion ‘by my steadfastness of pur- pose in pursuing an’ apparently hopeless case to the end. T had not seen Dan Haley since he entéred the penitentiary. I was shocked at hjs qged appearance. He seeméd lost in his new environ- ment. The free air, the bright sun- shine and varied crowds did not inspire him, they rather confused. His first move with the money the prison authorities had given him’ was to board a train for the town where he had formerly lived. He was a widower. Haley proceed- ed to the site of the house where he once lived. It was easy to shadow him. The house he expected to find had been burned down for two years. A new one was now in course of construction. Finally, af- ter an hour, he tutned from the place. My heart sank within me—Dan Haley had forgotten! I knew’ it surer than ever the next day, when he left the little lodging house he had put up at, with myself for a vigilant neighbor in the next room. He started out to seek work. I was near to him when he approached a carpenter building a fence. The latter held board’ across a saw horse and was just turning it to mark where it should be sawed with the pencil in his hand, when I noticed a sud- den glaw in Haley's eyes. He ut- tered what was almost a scream. He started from the spot on a dead Seratght to the railroad depot Haley proceeded, thence by train {ig the prison town and then to the ery doors of the penitentiary he had left less than twenty-four hours previously. I am a detective and ‘therefore have to think. I mentally connect- ed ,the carpenter and the prison, and when I heard Haley humbly solicit the warden to glow him to revisit his former cell ¥ nodded to the’ latter and followed, Once inside the cell Haley got down ‘and looked at the under sur- face of the bench riveted’ to the wall. ‘He transcribed some words written there, I’ traced those tell-tale words later.

Baby spiders are cannibals, The Human Element By FRANK COBB Punsters had called Brainerd the brains of the campaign against Saul Jones, the boss of Lawrencetown. | His cartéons created a nation-wide sensation, and did much to turn the tide of public opinion against the ; man who had long been supreme in the city. The one which made the sensation of the week depicted Jones in convict garb, ascending the wall of a building marked “Public Efficiency.” And Jones won the election. Four ; weeks before it occurred Brainerd seemed to lose his grip. True, he drew cartoons as of yore; but they were mild and milk-like in compari- son with his vitriolic contributions to the Eagle during preceding is- sues, The word went round that Brain- erd had been “fixed.” He lost his post, of course, and no other news- paper would employ him. T happén to know what occurred, because Brainerd told me when he came to ask a loan of $200 to take him ‘to’ New York, Brainerd was heart and soul in his work, He was all for reform and good government. He went home to sleep, after planning a new camoon that would pulverize all that remained of Jones, He got a telephone message in the morning. “This is Saul Jones, Mr. Brain- erd,” said the voice. “I want to see you very much. Can you come | to my house before going on to your office?” Brainerd was surprised’ at the quiet, ladylike woman who came in as he waited in the library and an- nouriced herself as Mrs. Jones, “My husband will be down fn a minufe,” she said. “I know who you are, Mr. Brainerd, and you can’t ex- pect me to,feel very kindly toward you.” With that she flounced out of the room, if such an expression can be applied to the angry swish of an angry woman’s gown, “Hiding behind a woman's skirt,” he sald to himself. “Won't I trounce him tomorrow!” Then Jones came in at the door. Brainerd had seen the boss gt a dis- tance, “You are Mr. Brainerd?” inquired the boss, “Sit down, I have asked you to come here with reference to your cartoon in yesterday's Eagle.” i “Yes,” answered Brainerd, think- ing that his fun was just going to begin. “How much?” inquired Saul Jones, sinking into a chair, and rest- ing his chin on one hand, Brainerd rose up. “I wag expect- ing that question, Mr. Jones,” he an- swered. “TI take it that you are of- fering me a sum of money to cease cartooning you. Let me tell you that I am not to be bought, sir, for all the money in Lawrencetown.” As Brainerd was going toward the door the boss sprang from his chair and caught him by the arm. “I'm not asking you to stop at- tacking me,” he said huskily. “Ah, you young man!” he re sumed. “It is so easy to crush your enemy, isn’t it? But when yoa have lived as long as I have you will come to see that magnanimity Pays. ‘ “You saw my wife? 1 sent her in to you, so that you should be able to judge. She knows nothing about it. She thinks I am the best man fn the world. And it fs thirty years ago—my God! I didn’t think anybody would have found that out against me, “I was 4 young fellow of twenty- two. It was my first and only crime. I put my employer's name on a check. They gave me six months in state's prison for it. And I es- caped—like a fool, I escaped, wear- ing the stripes, too, and I had only three months to serve.” Jones had connected the cyrtoon with the secret in his past life, and he read in it a threat of exposure which Brainerd had never meant, and for a crime of which the artist had been entirely ignorant. “Well?” asked. the boss, raising hia head, “Are you going to break up my home and ruin my life, young man, to gratify your hate; or are you going to let bygones be bygones and take $5,000?" That was where Bralnerd did the right thing. If he had told Jones that he ha@ not known about that episode, he would have left the man crushed and humiliated by his folly in betraying it. He stretched his hand out and grasped the boss’, “Mr. Jones,” he said, “I was @ young fool and you have taught me a much-needed lesson. There is no question of money—and the ‘Engle’ will never ‘again publigh a cartoon like the ‘Convict. He kept his word. “You see,” Brainerd explained to me afterward, “I was really quite capable of doing such a thing with deliberate design, it I had known, But nobody knew, and the man had been the victim of lis own con- science. ‘And after I had secr him ‘in his home, and learned that all men are mude more or less out of the same clay—why, the thing came home to me.’ And somehow I could never put my heart into my work again.
