By OWEN L. scorr. (Copyright, 1926, Consolidated Press Association.) CHICAGO, Jan. 30.—A new va: riety of moron—an acid thrower— who attem to disfigure women for the fun of it, is active on the streets here, Nearly a dozen women have fallen victim to this strange mania and yet not one of them has seen her assailant. His motive is as mys. terious as the attacks, which have sensation on the calves of my legs T saw that my stockings were turn- ing red in a number of little spots. The burning got intense and I realized what had happened. A doctor's attention was needed to care for the wounds that resulted.” Besides sufferin’ the burns, the victim > lost a dress and a fur jacket which were eaten out by the acid. Recently on the North Side a girl lost a coat and a skirt in a similar attack. In previous ventures the acid thrower has caught almost a dozen women, He strikos without any warning or any provocation. Like the mys- terious whippers that showed up in several parts of the country a few years ago, he picks out a victim and then does his dirty work. Because the victims have never seen their assailant, police are at a loxs to know how to catch the terrorist, TRIKE PARLEY FDJOURNS TILL NEAT TUESDAY Two More Plans Voted Down and Hope of Peace Is Dim soon PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 30.—(P)— Anthracite miners and operators ad- Journed today until next Tuesday with negotiations still deadlocked, The two latest plans, one pre- sented by the miners and the other bh. the operators, were voted down before the week-end adjournment was takn, As the operators and miners left the Bellevue-Stratford hotel tonight no ray of hone was apparent that the suspension would come to a quick end While the joint conference has in its possession more than 500 plans, received from all over the country, all that have been considered worthy of discussion have been discussed by the conference, voted down, recon- structed and modified, and then voted down again.

With this end in view, Repre- sentative Charles E. Winter is do- ing his bit to get Wyoming its share and is preparing to tell hi collea gues something about the early days of the “Wild and Wooly, One bill upon which favorable ac tion is expected has been introduced by Mr. Winter, and should be of in terest to all Wyoming women, This is for the erection of a monument to Sacajawea, the famous Indian woman whose history is so well known. Her grave at Fort Wash- akie, near Lander, is unmarked save for a small stone and plate erected by the historical soclety. Represen- tative Winter in his bill asks for, five thousand dollars in order that a fitting monument shall be erected for future generations. He also hopes to have the two forts, Fort Laramie and Fort Bridger; preserved as national monuments In view of their past momentous history.

As the cost of this undertaking will amount to consider- ably over a million dollars, numer ous plans are being devised for the rasing of this money. One of the most unique as well as the most pop- ular of these, 1s the plan to sell four thousand memorial seats in the au- ditorlum at one hundred and fifty dollars each. These seats will be memorials to friends or relatives of the donors and as such, will be prop: erly inscedbed with a handsome bronze plate. In addition there will be fifty boxes each presumably to tbe purchased by a special state. Theso will also be properly inscribed and dedicated.

Dempsey is seen with Estelle and Eddie Tunney also is in Florida. boxes, with the exception of one or two—including Wyoming. As it is not usual in such an event for our state to be conspicuous by its ab- sence, it is hoped that at the com- ing convention, plans will have been completed for the purchase of the Wyoming box. Two important society events are scheduled for this week—the recep- tion at the White House in honor of the members of congress, and the Assembly Ball. The latter is an an nyal affair which may be called a colonial event since the costumes will represent that picturesque per. fod in American history. Many of the guests will be costumed to rep- resent some of their historic ances- tors. A feature of the ball will be the dancing of the stately minuets, and in one of these Captain Emory Scott Land and Mrs, Land will take im- portant parts, appearing respectively a ene!

Various young men have written me in response DOENY'S HAND SEEN IN RUMOR IL MERGE Pan-American Linked with General Pete in N. Y. Report NEW YORK, Jan, 30.—@)—The Herald-Tribune will say tomorrow that Edward LL. Doheny, president of the Pan-American Western Pe troleum company, who left New York today for the west after con- ferring three days with bankers and oil men, will soon appear as the guiding influence in a far reaching consolidation of western oil proper- tes, Among the companies most promi- nently mentioned are the Pan-Amer- ican Western Petroleum company, the General Petroleum company and the California Petroleum company. The information available tonight did not indicate whether the negotia- tions involve retirement of Doheny from the oil industry in which he has been a notable figure for many years and the transfer of his one remaining property of importance, the Pan-American Western, to other interests or whether this company is to be the keystone of the proposed re- alignment with Doheny as the dom- inating factor. There have been report# that he wished to dispose of all of his oil holdings and retire. The suggestion has been made that the grouping may be so exten- sive as to embrace, besides the Pa- cific coast interests, some of the im- portant organizations in the mid- continent field. The banking house of Blair and Company some time ago effected a merger of the Barns- dall and Waite Phillips companies and it was reported at the time that the Simms Petroleum company, the Independent Oil and Gas and other companies might be brought into this alignment, The fact that Blair and Company figured in the purchase of control of the Pan-American Petroleum and Transport company from Doheny and associates, and that this house still has relations with Doheny has strengthened the reports that the Blair program for mid-continent con- solidations might be extended far- ther west.

SUNDAY, JANUARY 31, 1926 Should She Reveal Her Past?— A Man Answers to her letter and the following Is representative of their views: Dear Mrs. Thompson: I think “Worried Blue Eyes” should fee! as she does about her past, For I think a man should overlook a misfortune that has come her way, ai we all know that misfortune will happen to the best of us. I may be old-fashioned in my beliefs, but I fecl that it is best to let the past be forgotten. I believe in a girl as she .¥ today and not what she was years ago. So I think if she can find a man whom she loves and he loves her, her misfortune of the past need not interfere with her happy miarried life. RAYMO? I am glad to be able to say, ried Blue Hyes,” that young men appear to be more Mberal in regard to this matter than they once were. don't B. A. Foolish girl! Your first worries should be of your condition and a name for your child. I think you should take your mother into your confidence at once. for she can help you more than any one else will.» You have forfeited the love of this other boy for whom you long and even if you weren't in trouble, it would be idle to bulld hopes upon the prospect of marying a young man who won't be free for nearly four years. Yes, tell your wother. Unless she is minus every vestize of motherly love, she will not turn you out, but will help you all she can. Serious: I agree with you. No woman should be so narrow minded as to refuse to accompany her hus- band to decent shows when he en- joys them so much, and wants her company. That 1s becoming a fanatic about religion. Surely she should realize that in carrying her personal bellefs to such lengths as you describe she is allenating her husband's love and regard. Blue Eyes: Such a sily thing to fall out over! There's nothing wrong about an unmarried woman taking her escort’s arm; it even ts expected in some circumstancés. He owes you an apology for his rude- ness. A Definition of “Petting.” The othe: day I asked what my readers understand {s meant by the term “petting.” This is what one woman (married) says: Dear Mrs. Thompson: I think pet- ting is a habit acquired by both men and women. In all of ux there is a certain amount of emotion and affection. Petting ts a mothod of expressing emotion, instead of affec- tion as it should be. I do not believe “petting” to be more than “kissing and hugging,” but I do believe “pet- ting” Jeads to baser emotion which cause some of cur best young people to be immoral. I have been guilty of “petting” with only one man, and that is my husband. MRS. M. H P. M. H.
