( NEW YORK, September 28.—Lula Leslie, a stage and vaudeville celebrity of 50 years ago, was found dead in a dingy basement apartment on West 101st street yesterday, a victim of gas fumes. A ’t was open on the gas stove, but its connection was loose and police believe it had been turned on acci- dentally. The aged woman's identity was not contents of the six trunks in the apart- ment and found newspaper clippings lauding the skill of Lula Leslie, the dancer. The clippings revealed that years ago she had starred in “The Black Crook,” which recently was revived in Hoboken, J., and in the musical exiravaganza, “King Cole the Second.” She also had appeared with Billy Watson's Beauties. Gowns which she apparently had worn on the stage of long ago were found in the trunks. Nearly $800 in cash and jewelry val- ued at from $5,000 to $10,000 also were found.

While a number of the 13 Republican |and Democratic Senators from _the Western States will be returned without really serious opposition there are enough contests and elements of un- certainty in the situation to draw the attention and efforts of national party leaders to that section.

The five clung to the tree for hours esterday screaming for help, the levee workers “said, but when darkness hid them from view the cries ceased. Second Levee Break. Added concern was felt last night as the second break in the levee oc- curred near the business district. Earlier in the night the waters pounded a 20- foot cr e in the river wall 6 miles down stream. City officials said the break near the city probably would be brought under control without serious damage. They belleved the crevasse down stream would do little harm other than flood lowlands which already have been evacuated. The waters today had .risen within 3 feet of the top of the dyke which protects Augusta proper. Local weather officials said the crest apparently had reached its peak and probably would begin falling soon. The 60,000 persons in Augusta were cut off entirely from any means of transportation and virtually all busi- ness was suspended.

September 28.— After sending a bullet through straw-stuffed head of a scarecrow, year-old John Dirocco of this town early Thursday fled into the cedar swamps 1 mile south of here and re- mained there for more than 30 hours, believing that he was being sought as a killer, He was discovered yesterday by a posse of residents from this town and taken to Mays Landing for medical treatment. He suffered considerably from exposure, but was otherwise un- harmed. Dirocco and three companions tock a gun from his home and went hunt- ing. They finally chased a low-flying hawk. When Dirocco shot wild, a fig- ure in a battered hat and waving arms was seen to fall and lie motionless. ‘The boys fled, all returning to their homes with the exception of Diro Yesterday they told their parents of what had taken place and a hunt was started for the “killer.” U.

By plane, train, boat and automo- bile the veterans poured into flag-hung Louisville, smilingly trying to absorb the largest crowd of visitors in its history.

The advance mem- bers of the Boston delegation, headed by Dennis Haverty, have been here sev- eral days, and James E. Fiske, San Francisco, adjutant of the California Department, wired he would arrive to- day to open the fight in behalf of Los Angeles. Three of the outstanding heroes of the World War—Sergt. Alvin C. York, Lieut. Samuel Woodfill and Sergt. Willie Sandlin—have notified they will attend. Given Uniform. Sandlin, whose home is on Hell fer Sartin Creek, in Eastern Kentucky, was faced with the possibility of not being able to be present because he did not have a uniform, but that lack was sup- plied yesterday by Gov. Flem D. son, who directed the Kentucky adju- tant general to provide him with a new one from the stores of the National Guard. Each of the three men was awarded the Congressional Medal, the highest American military decoration, and nu- merous decorations from allled nations for their individual feats. NEW YORK BANKER DIES.

Some people like to have dogs and to keep them in their apartments—other people do not want 1o keep pets or to encounter them around the premises where they live. Some people like to keep late hours and hit things up as lively as they please without feeling any responsibility for annoying their neighbors—other people want to live where reasonable rules are observed for providing an atmosphere of order and quietude. There are apartment houses where children use roller skates in the halls and play games in the lobbies—and there are places where this is not permitted. These things are a matter of personal taste and inclina- tion. There are many worthy folks who like pets, who lead Bohemian lives, and who allow their children to run loose. There are plenty of places where they are welcome and where they find kindred spirits. This advertisement is an invitation to people who want 1o live where there are restrictions, and where there is exc lent service at reasonable rates. Please call in person.
