Herrin Murder Trials To Start November 1 3 MARION. Ills., Sept. 28. Decision to open the trials of the 74 men, indicted for murder, conspiracy and rioting in conection with the Herrin mine kill ings, about November 13. was reached late today at a lone: conference be tween Judge D.

The forty-eight men charged with murder in one indictment in connec tio with the death of Howard Huffman, of Huntington, Indiana, will be the first to go to trial in collection with the killing of 19 non-union workers and three union miners at the his death through gunshot wound in flicted by some person unknown.

He hurried at once to Mabe's home and gave the alarm, and several persons, returning wJth him to j'the scene of the shooting, found Mabe dead.

While these demonstra tors were Jn progress, 60,000 fugitives ST. LOUIS, Sept. 28. (By the Asso ciated Press.) Authorities here today redoubled their efforts to find Harry Brenn, 27 years old, who has been missing since his garage at Oakville, Mo., was destroyed by fire last Tues day morning, and who is sought in con nection with what the police term one of the most grewsome mysteries in local police history. The police announced they had es tablished that a charred torso, at first believed to be that of Brenn, which was found in the debris of the fire, was that of Miss Celeste Schneider, 18, whose corpse was stolen from its grave in Mount Hope cemetery Monday night. Maintaining that she believed her hHnband. who it was learned, carried a-kptal of $16,000 life insurance, nad dielk in the garage blaze, Mrs. Brenn, 22. a German war bride, with an 11 months old infant in her arms, denied. according to police, that she had con spired with her husband to collect ihe insurance, which Is the theory of the police.

By SOUAD HAMM NEW YORK, Sept. 28 Since the out break of hostilities between the Greeks and the Turks in Asia Minor, America is again being flooded with tales or the horrors of the Turkish harem. Some of them may be true. Most are lies. The cruel and brutal husband is not unknown In Turkey 'nor is he un known in America, as witness the rec ords of the American divorce courts. I have found many popular miscon ceptions in America of the life of the Turkish married woman. To the average American, mention of the harem brings to his mind a pic ture of a portly gentleman lolling at ease on a divan, propped up by numer ous gorgeously colored cushions with a miniature pony ballet composed of his many wives in front of him. One Wife Bnongrh But in the Interest, of truth It Is necessary for me to destroy that fairy Ideal. While the Koran permits to the Moslem four wives, not more than one modern Turk in a hundred, avails him self of the privilege. One wife is about all that he can successfully manage. A Turkish wife has the same, duties, the same cares, the same rights and the same privileges as any American ' wife. ' I might dance with my husband but! not for him. ! I would sing or play a piano for! him the same as any American wife ; would do. Another fallacy of American belief! that I must destroy, is that no man may ' see a Tuikish woman's face except her! husband. That was true up to the "t J me of! Abdul Hamld. But during the past ten I years, the custom has gradually died i Turkish women now appear in pub- ; lie without the veil covering the faces, ' though, being true daughters of Eye, they retain its beautiful lines by wear ing it draped from the side of the head. To such a state of freedom,have the Turkish women obtained, that in Con stantinople the ladies of society a class which in Europe ardently follows '. the races lace their bets with men as freely as the women of any Christian nation. Any Turkish woman may go freely . about the streets, unveiled, while she does her shopping or visits her friends, j sweater percentage of happy unions i mam eAisi m America, The Goodrich realtke of real value at a price remarkably low.

Y., Sept. 28. ThJ Democratic convention, which opened today, will name a state ticket and nominate a candidate for United States .senator but, there are few delegates in Syracuse tonight who dare predict pre cisely what ticket would tie. Former Governor Alfred E. Smith, appeared to be leading. His man agers have claimed 296 counted votes for him. They will need S8 if they are to nominate him, and William R. Hearst's backers claim that even if the 296 votes are cast for Smith he will never be able to make up the dif ference. In the hotel lobbies and abouTW the city tonight, however, there was a general belief the former governor would win the nomination. While the Hearst-Smith fight was at its peak the wome delegates came for ward with two new demands for rec ognition which may put a new com plexion on the already befogged con vention. The fight was that Smith be nominated, because he was "first, last and all the time, the women's candidate." The second was that Mrs Daniel OTay of West Chester be named for secretary of state and that Mrs. Franklin D: Roosevelt, of Dutchess, be the party's candidate for comptroller. Charles F. Murphy of Tammany Hall, was beset tonight on two sides by de termined candidates and their manag ers, ana some new xotk aeiegaies as serted that on the result of the ballot ing in the arena depended Murphy's hold on Tammany Hall.

Franck lyn Paris a chevalier of th Legion of Honor, King Albert of rselerlum irtarle him a knight o,f the Order of the Crown. 1 - . Their recipient was uoMfisd of these two decorations on the same! day. Such a thin: dosen't happen often. Paris is a New York 'architectural decorator and writer. He won French and Belgian grati tude by helpjnsr the families of artists of these two countries durln the war. Also he was Identified prominently with the-movement for the restoration of the Library of Louvaln, and he was chairman of the committee which pre sented a bust of- Cardinal Mercier cf New York University. , 1 In the-war he was captain of United States troops. . . She is not guarded by slaves, ex cepting in the case of the women of the royal family, who also wear the yashmak or tace covering. Turkish women today are admitted to the university at Stamboul, and at the medicaschools, and are , also freely- employed in business. The only remaining restriction upon the'Turkish wife is the custom of not appearing in public places - with her husband. But even that last remaning barrier to complete freedom is gradu ally being overthrown. Boa T"heir Husband I ' kept my house, took care of the financial accounts, did. the cooking, and generally bossed my husband as r do now In America. He and I were partners in every sense of the word. Perhaps Turkish marriages can show Marriage there is not entered into in the free and easy manner of Amer ica. We look before we leap, and the ad vise of our parents is usually followed, ed. I hope that this will correct the raise ideas which so many Americans have of Turkish married life. Would Investigate Conditions in Russia j PRESSMEN'S HOME, Tenn., Sept. 28.
