New York, Aug. 23.—Mrs. Agnes Maek of Brooklyn and Edwin Dathe ot this city, a doctor’s assistant, were arrested on charges of impalring the 1ife and morals of a minor child.

Scarch Plans 1 A message from the Milwaukee, dated today and relayed by way of Louisberg, N. 8., said natives familiar with the coast of Greenland between Frederiksdal and Frederikshade “will conduct search, using motorboats, small boats and Kyaks,” and that “search partles carrying emergency rations and medical supplies will be employed.” Describing conditions impeding the searchers, the dispatch tersely began “No fight: Fog." It concluded with “Request authorization by Canadian government or army air service for necessary expenditures.” The fog also was mentioned in the Richmond message, Which was for- warded by the American naval attache at London. “Search stopped by fog,” 1t said «When weather clears will send Barry, (United States destroyer), to search south of Farewell (Cape Farewell) and then account fuel shortage pro- ceed to Pisto, Assuming Brazos, (naval oil tanker), coming, Raleigh (cruiser) is retained to use her planes in search until Locatelli located.” A pontoon on one of the American | planes, it was reported, was broken in | landing at Frederiksdal.

Callow coach of the University of Washing- ton crews that have won the inter- collegiate championship at Pough- keepsie, N. Y., the last two years. “Rowing,” Mr. Callow sald, “with proper conditioning and training of men, is a great upbuilder of the hu- man system and will increase a man's life because the sport embraces all those elements that build up the body land keep it fit. “Dr, Meylar of Columbia University said, after studying the records ot 50 years' rowing at Harvard, that oars- men lived five years long than any class of men engaged in sport. “It s my thought that oarsmen live longer than devotees of any other of the so-called violent sports for several reasons. Rowing doesn’t call for the abuse of the body or make it subject to such blows, knocks, bruises and fractures as do boxing, football, wrest. ling, baseball and other major sports. “Rowing, in the final analysis, does nothing but enlarge the capacity of the lungs fill them with pure air build up the abdominal muscles and all the other muscles in the human frame, It gives to its #evotees billlons of rays of exhilarating, lite-preserving sunshine.’ An oarsman improves as he grows older, said Mr. Callow. “A university oarsman is good at 20, better at 25 and if T could have a crew made up of men around 30, new world’s rec- TRAMPS DISDAIN BEANS “pudes of the Dust” Indignant When Offered Lowly Fare At Salvation Army Barracks, Beggers will be choosers, despite the anclent saying to the contrary. En- sign Carl ¥rederickson of the Salva- tion Army reports that tramps are be- coming very fussy in regard to what they eat. A few days ago a pair of typical hoboes appeared at the hall and asked for food. The cook gave them beans, bread and coffee in amount sufficient to make a hearty meal, The tramps, however, had vi- slons of chicken and haughtily refus- ed such fare, exclaiming, “Is that all you're gonna give us?”’ and stalked out with much show of outraged dig- nity. The self-professedly starving men who appear at the dodr are seldom hungry enough to work for their meal. When told to chop a little wood, they act in traditional manner by disappearing as quickly as possible. There are many men, however, who epply at local headquarters for em- ployment and are willing to take al- most any job that can be found. En- gign Frederickson says that at present it is impossible to find work for them: Four or five men put in an appear- ance every day, and if they do not find work soon they will be forced to apply for financial ald. ‘With the clos- ing of summer, more men are apply- ing for a night's lodgings at the hall. Next Iriday and Saturday evenings the Salvation Army will stage a band concert in the rear of the hall. BEf- forts are being made to bring back for this affair all former members of the local band. There will be several gongs and Ensign Frederichson will speak. The whole program will hg in English. The open air services in walnut Hill park, which were discontinued Jast Sunday because of the exercises in connection with the Grange tour, will be rasumed beginning tomorrow at 4 p. m. Repairs to the hall are almost com- pleted, and the fall and winter pro- gram will opep next month, ECLAIRS POISON Geries of Ptomaine Cases Lead to Be- lief That Confection Was Not Good—Number of Victims Unknown New York, Aug. 23.—A series of | ptomaine poisoning cases, has caused health Jdepartment officials to order the seizure of food in several restaur- ants, Tainted chocolate eclairs are believed to have caused the outbreak.

I think it impossible that it could be a message trom any outside planet.” He sald he had not expected that wessages would be received from Mars but that he would be ashamed of himselt It he had ignored the ef- forts that wers made to obtaln com- munication. The sounds recorded by the special set employed were received on a wave length of 30,000 metres. They con- sisted of harsh dots, continuing oft and on for three minutes in groups of tour and five.

Chicago, Aug. 23.—Scarch for @ third moon or Mars, and a study of the molsture content in the air which may encircle the planet, are being made by sclentists here as the planet draws closer to the earth. “There is a bare chance that we may discover another oon around Mars,” sald Professor Edwin B. I'rost of the University of Chicago, in charge of tho university's Yerkes ob- ecrvatory at Willlams Bay, Wis. He sald that about 6:30 o'clock tonight the planet will be closer to the earth than it has been for 120 years or will be again before 2007 A. D. Mars is already credited with pos- sessing two moons, one named Iear, 10 miles in diameter, and the other Dread, 35 miles, both traveling around Mars three times a day, he explained. Last night's stugy of the planet through the forty-inch telescope, the largest refracting lens in the world— at Yerkes observatory, revealed a cap of ice 700 miles in width. This ice field is rapidly shrinking, Professor Frost declared, and withig a few weeks will have disappearel; and as- tronomers will have a better oppor- tunity to observe any vegctation that may grow there. “Mare seem to be an arid planet,” Professor Frost said. ‘“One of the things we are most anxious to de now is verify or discredit our belief that the amount of vapor there is small. “It is perfectly reasonable to be- lieve that there is plant life on Mars —possibly a fungus growth. In fact, 1 am of the opinlon that the canals you have heard so much about are rothing more than big strips of veg- etation. As for life existing on the planet, that is almost out of the ques- tion. One thing is certain. If there are any animals there, they must be able to stand extreme heat and cold. “The notion of getting signals from thera is ridiculous.” Todd Intertains Washington, Aug. 23.—Dr. David Todd ,who organized the world-wide “listening-in" party last night in the Mars, was the host at an astronomical muiscale in th observatory or George- town university. After the guests, who included Isa- buro Yoshidoa, Japanese charge d'- affaires and other officials of the em- bassy and sclentists, had been given an opportunity to view the planet through the observatory’s 12-inch telescope, the musical program was begun with the “Song of the Evening Star,” by “Tannhauser.” This was followed by other selections represent- ing as Dr. Todd applled the phrase, «“The Music of the Spheres.” London, Aug. 23.—The planet Mars was observed for a few minutes at the Greenwich observatory last night but observation conditions were not good. The south polar cap and some other markings were visible but nothing un- usual was seen. Berne, Aug. 33.—Last night's obser- vations of Mars at the new Jungfrau observatory, 10,000 feet above sea level, falled owing to a heavy snow storm, This was a great disappoint- ment to.the astronomers ‘who. how- ever, on the preceding night obtained some nine observations of the planet, notably of the canals and polar re- glons.
