POLO CROWD APES WALES MANNERISMS

chewing blades of grass. Once he prince boldly scratched his leg where a fly had bitten him. At about the same time, Major Metcalfe, H. R. H. is equerry, seated by him, blandly worked back one trouser leg and adjusted a garter as if there were not half a hundred pairs of binoculars trained on the pair from as many points in the "for members only" section.
Consequently Long Islanders, harassed by mosquitos, no longer quibble about scratching themselves, whether lord be there to see. They also copied the prince's habit of crumpling his hat between his knees when he wishes to use big hands to applaud.
They have stared at him when they found him looking their way and have been surprised to find him staring back, neither in friendly fashion nor with hostility but with the vexed gaze that asks. "Well, what are you looking at?"
If the Prince of Wales decides tomorrow to climb into a tree to watch the polo ponies, it is virtually certain that Long Island's captains of industry, merchant princes and men of letters will take to the boughs as did Tarzan of the Apes.
For ape him they must, and they do.
FORMER MARINE BOSSES HERRIN
HERRIN, Ill., Sept. 4.—Williamson-co. awoke today to find itself in the grip of a strange band of authority. And it is still a little bewildered by its sudden and somewhat dramatic lesson in law enforcement.
That lesson was given last night when a man, who learned his methods in the "devil dog" marines, quietly left his place at a dinner table, took "bloody Williamson" by the neck and said in substance:
"You watch your step."
This morning the community is watching its step."
The man who gave the order is Captain Harold Bigelow, company I, Illinois National Guard, of Salem, Ill., commanding the militia detail of 17 men left at Herrin by COURHOUSE NEWS
Mrs. Maude P. Franklin tried to win back her husband's love, she alleged in an answer filed in the superior court today to a suit for divorce brought by Roger Franklin, who had alleged that atten their separation they never lived together again.
Mrs. Franklin, of Wauwatosa, Wis., asserted she followed her husband about the country in her efforts to reconciliation, that on occasions they would meet and live for short periods as man and wife and that they corresponded regularly in the meantime. Franklin, however, she said, steadfastly refused to return to her as a husband. She asked that the divorce decree be denied.
Max Pierpont of Santa Ana falsely accused his wife, Helen, of association with other men, she charged in a suit for divorce brought in superior court. Often she was threatened with physical harm, she declared. The couple has been married three years.
Four traffic violators paid Justice Jack Landell $60 for alleged offenses.
After giving a note for $249 to the Orange County Trust and Savings bank, Santa Ana, Sam Crawford disappeared, the bank declared in a suit filed today in the superior court against W. G. Old

TWO REPUBLICANS ON DEM. COMMITTEE
Failure of the voters of the Fourth district, of which Orange is the center, to elect a full quota of three members to the Democratic county central committee, it was stated today, makes appointment of two members probable. Two Republicans, it was shown, won nominations for the Democratic posts.
D. G. Wettlin of Orange, a Democrat, received 128 votes to insure his nomination. His name was the only one printed on the ballot. Names of eight other candidates were written in and several were Republican. Among these were A. E. Koepsei, 23 votes, the highest of the other totals.
The state law, it was said, barred the nomination to any party committee of a candidate not affiliated with that party. A candidate's nomination then is called void, the position declared vacant and appointment follows. As the committee chairman, yet unnamed makes the appointment. Interest now was centering on the contest for the chairmanship.

DENVER, Sept. 4.—Federal Judge Symes today denied the motion of minority bondholders for intervention in the reorganization plan of the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad.

A conference will be held in chambers tonight to determine the upset price to be asked at the auction sale.

DEPORTATION OF FIRPO EXPEDITED
NEW YORK, Sept. 4.—Immigration Commissioner Henry G. Curran at Ellis Island, declared today that the investigation in deportation proceedings against Luis Angel Firpo, Argentine heavyweight, is now complete with the exception of one part, which has to do with new evidence submitted today by Rev. William Sheafe Chase of Brooklyn, who has been pushing the case.
This evidence, Curran charged, has been withheld "in bad faith by Cannon Chase and was found quite by accident." Rev. Chase arrived here from Washington to answer a peremptory summons from Curran and was examined by the commissioner.
WEALTH OF GRID TALENT ON HAND
More football material, both in the varsity and B classes, than ever before will be available for the high school eleven when practice starts this week, and the prospects are bright for a good team, Coach A. E. Fitzmorris said today. Representatives of the Orange League will meet perhaps within a week and arrange the schedule.
It is just possible that the A. A. U. may assign one or two outside-the-county teams to the Orange League, in which case things will be more interesting than ever.
Fitzmorris estimates that 50 varsity and 60 to 70 B class men will try for the team. Suits will be handed out this evening and the first light practice—passing and kicking the ball—will take place.
The coach today mentioned several more men, previously overlooked or lately, registered, who look promising. Paul Hatfield, Colorado man, who played some football there and was a basketball star, is one of the outside ment to appear.
Kenneth Clapp in school last year, but not available for the team, is another promising candidate.
Theodore Claussen, who did considerable track work, is another.
Herbert Dumke also in school last year, is a fourth.
Horace Hempshall, in school last year, but not active in athletics, looks good, too.
Roland Peltzer, Philip Bastian and H. Kluthe are others. Kluthe weighs 180 pounds and should make a good linesman. Bastian got his letter in basketball, but didn't play on the gridiron.
Fitzmorris has already intimated that Anaheim will have an even better chance this year as things look now, to capture the championship than last year, when...

GIFT NITE" AT CALIFORNIA FRI.
Tomorrow night is "gift night" at the California Theater and the management has arranged for numerous and valuable gifts among which are two ladies hats, toilet sets, wall paper, ladies dress., cut glass compote with fruit and two hand painted fruit dishes, orders for cleaning and pressing, gasoline orders, chocolates and a beautiful picture.
The phrase "all-star cast" may well have been invented to describe the personnel of the First National production, "Single Wives," which is at the California tomorrow and Saturday.
The featured roles are played by Corrine Griffith and Milton Sills, who are seen together on the screen for the first time. Miss Griffith plays the part of Betty Jordan, a role said to be especially suited to her and one giving her excellent opportunity to depict the sort of roles that have made her famous.
Milton Sills plays opposite Corrine Griffith in a role different than anything he has heretofore essayed. In this picture he will be seen as a modern business man in contrast to his work in "The Sea Hawk"—the husband who is settled in his home and business, who has left behind him some of that glamour and romance that belong to youth and the days of courtship.
Betty Jordan's mother, Dorothy Van Clark, played by Kathlyn Williams, who was selected especially because of her suitability to the role. Lou Tellegen, known to followers of the stage as leading man to Rejane, Duse and Bernhardt, is the third corner of the triangle.
Henry B. Walthall, the beloved "little colonel" of "Birth of a Nation" fame, plays the role of Franklin Dexter, who loves Dorothy Van Clark. Walthall is a very human character, differing radically from anything in which he has been seen. Phyllis Haver is once again to be seen in a First National picture, this time in the role of a sweet and happy wife. Phyllis is the Marion Eldridge of the story.
Phillips Smalley is Tom Van Clark, fast-living husband of Dorothy; Jere Austin as the lovable family physician. Dr. Walter Lane and John Patrick as Billy Eldridge make up the balance of the

WORLD GIRDLERS REST UP TODAY
ABOARD U. S. S. RICHMOND, OFF PICTOU, N. S., Sept. 4. (By Radio to I. N. S.)—Lieutenant Lowell Smith and Lieut. Erik Nelson, United States Army aviators, who are on the last long lap of their round-the-world flight, rested here today while their planes were overhauled and minor repairs were made.
