Roospvelt said, will be the collection | of birds and small mammals of the coungry. Few of these of any note havel ever been taken out of the country, he added.

By the Associated Press. PITTSBURGH, Pa, March 27.—A squad of county detectives dashed up Sample Hill, a suburb, late yesterday and scattered more than 100 alleged gamblers who had gathered there for | the first big open air dice game of the year. Lookout had given the alarm, and there were no arrests. The amblers escaped in more than two score motor cars parked nearby for a quick getaway. In an effort to end what he termed the most notorious and richly staked dice game in Western Pennsylvania, R. H. Braun, chief of the county de- tectives forces, said he had ordered out four detectives armed with riot guns to patrol the hill. Crime of various kinds, from rob- bery to murder, has been committed on the hill side, Braun said, but the games have continued from year to year. Officers were never able to gain the top before an alarm was sunded. One man was slain on the knob last year when a band of rob- bers held up the gamblers and escaped with approximately $6,000. Braun declared that as high as $25,000 has been lost in the outdoor game in a single day’s play. OIL MEN’S CASE DELAYED. Court Defers Hearing of Gordon Campbell an L. L. Stevens.

By the Associated Press. CARDEN CITY, N. Y., March 27.—By falling 1,500 feet before opening a parachute in a test jump at Mitchel Field yesterday, Sergt. Randle L. Bose is belleved by Army officlals to have established a record. In two subsequent jumps before opening his parachute he dropped 1,000 feet with- out losing consciousness. Physiclans found he had suffered no {ll effects. Each of the three jumps were made from a plane flying at a height of 3,000 feet. The tests have overthrown the theory that a person falling from a great height loses consclouness from the rush of air. “The real significance of these tests,” said Maj. Willlam N. Hensley, jr., commandant of Mitchel Field, “has been to prove that a pilot, if his plane is shot away, can drop a suf- ficient distance to escape from the enemy.” CARPENTER TO BE BISHOP.
