praised them for their bravery in 'sticking to their duty. His visit caused curiosity rather than fear among the village residents who followed him wherever he went. In the town of Sacco Ribeiro, he had his photograph taken, and de- clared he had no hostile intentions toward the people of the state of Scrgipe, adding however, that he would show no mercy if he were followed or attacked. He has manifested a desire to live peacefully, but police aren't so sure of his intentions. He also main- tains he will be “good” it he is given some official office. And the police are also dubious about that. There have been several fierce encounters between the Lampeao raiders and the police at Massacara, Curralinho, and Abobora, At Cur- ralinho, *he bandit chief's licutenant “Mergulhao,” was killed, and the whole band was put to flight. The chase has continued relentlessly since. MRS, HOOVER LIKES WAL SCOUT HOUSE Often Visits Washington Build- ing to Seek Relaxation Washington, June 21 (P—There is a modest little seven-room house in Washington which often is visited by the first lady of the land. 1t is the Girl Scouts’ Little House. As national honorary president of BRAZLIAN BANDIT FEARS ND POLICE Captares Sheril’s House and Gives Gigars to Gops Rio De Janeiro, June 21 (UP)— Virgoino Ferreira da Silva, specta- cled, gaily-accoutered bad boy of the Brazilian hinterland, who has enough charges against him to fill a docket book, continues to provide cause for the existence of police. The bandit, better known Lampeao, Portuguese for lamp post, is roaming through the thinly-in-| habited sections of the states of Bahia and Sergipe in the northeast, surrounded by a band which has left a bloody trail. Lampeao, whose notoriety has already found its way into the sen- sational paper-covered novels, is young in appearance. He is blind in one eye, and wears shell-rimmed glasses. Lampeao and his men, sometimes numbering 150, use hardy little mules to evade the po- lice, even though the notorious ban- dit leader has virtually thumbed his nose at the law and its agents, and contemptuously told those who seek him to “go to hell” if the meager dispatches from the northern back- | woods are to be credited. This bandit does not represent the true Brasiliaa by any means. Rather he typifies the last important rem- nant of that class of “bad -nen” P An{oR e Jron e poinny Of | the organization, Mrs. Hoover takes Jesse James and other famous gun- |28 much pleasure in its green-cur- men of the wild and woolly west | tained coolness in summer and its of the not-so-recent days in the|rose-tinted warmth in winter as do United States.
