NEWSPAPER SEEKS CLASSICAL HOME Chicago Tribune Offers Prize for Decorating Chicago, 111, July 28.—The Chicago Tribune has announced a prize of $5,- 000 to mural painters for the most suitable designs for the embellish- ment of the news room in its new plant, just north of the Link bridge in Michigan avenue. Under the plans of the - contest, which will be held under the supervi- sion of the Chicago Art Imstitute, the designs to be submitted must portray some important phase or episode in the history of journalism. Ten free scholarships have been offered by the institute to painters wishing to work on The Tribune de- signs, in order that artists of small means may not b2 excluded from par- ticipation in the contest. Thte walls of The Tribune local room comprise three premier. and nine lesser panels. Of the three larg- er, the greatest is 15 by eighteen feet. Among the themes which have been suggested for these panels are the bringing in of the verdict in the case of the King vs Zender for libel, an event cf historical importance in col- onial annals of the American people and a victory for freedom of the press; the sitting of the American congress in which the constitutional amendments safeguarding the liberty of the press were adopted; and the pre-war conference in the old Tribune office in the late 50's between Abra- ham Lincoln and the early editors of The Tribune concerning measures which eventuated in the abolition of slavers. Among the factors which the art- ist will contend in the execution of | his design, will be two lofty structural pillars, many large and small win- | OM GEE TAG!

The plan has received the commendation of virtually every noted mural painter ‘W. B. Van Ingen, whose work in- cludes the decoration of the govern- ment building in the Canal Zone and Judge Landis’ courtroom in the fed- eral building in Chicago, declared the Tribune idea ‘‘extraordinary” in that “the public is getting tired of the old conventional mural decorations.” “The people want their decorations to. tell a story,” he averred. In this regard the paper has gone far ahead of anything that has ever been con- ceived before.’” The offer has opened the way for the ambitious young mural painter, is the apinion of artists. Preliminary work on the designs has already been begun by numerous artists, it is said.

KIDD History vaes Him a Gentleman, Not a Pirate Boston, Jare wrong. July 28.—Song and story Captain Kidd was not a pirate “and his fabled treasure does not exist. Privateersman he was, but of good repute. His hanging as a pirate and murderer on Execution Dock at.London in 1701 was to satisty the political exigencies of the time. These are the findings of John H. Edmonds, state archivist for Massa- _chusetm, &s announced in a lecture at the Old South Meeting house. Archivist Edmonds was discussing ‘‘Lord Bellomont and the Pirates.” Bellomont, he said, was appointed governor of New England in 1695 with_a special mission to suppress piracy. “Before leaving England,” Mr. Ed- monds contended, ‘“he agreed with Captain William Kidd, a privateers- man of good repute from New York, to proceed against pirates in a ship called the Adventure Galley, on a ‘no-capture-no-pay’ basis. The ad- venturers included Captain Kidd, Robert Livingston, Lord Chancell~r Somers, the Earl of Oxford (First Lord of the Admiralty), the Earl of Romney and the Duke of Shrewsbury (Secretaries of Slate). Bellomont ind the straw men, to whom the king’s grant of treasure was 1 .. made, did not contribute a cent.” ““On September 6 1695, with ‘crazy’ vessel and a crazier crew Captain Kidd proceeded on his mis- sion,” the archivist said. He picked up several including “a “loorish ship of 200 tons and a Bengal merchant a MIDDIES $3.00 value. 50c value. CLOTH 15c¢ Colored colors. Best material. 49c¢ SILK LISLE SOX rs and sizes.

With the remnant of his crew arrested, sent to tried for murder and piracy, senrinc ed and hung on Executior Dock, Fri. day, May 23, 1701, to satisfy the poli- tical exigencies of tne times. It was either Lord Bellomont, the Lorg Chancellor, the First Lord of the Ad- miralty, the Secretaries of State or Captain Kidd, and under this circum. stance he had no chance. Collusion and perjury are plainly evident ln\hn trial; the French passes which would have cleared him of the pirany charce though produced in Parliament, wese suppressed in the Admiralty cours The least said about Bellomont's ac. tion in the matter the better. He tooled Kidd. he fooled his counci and the worst of it is, he allowed it in his letters to the Lords of Trage. “The Captain Kidd of today is a composite pirate made up of all who frequented our shores from 1637 to 1837.
