(By the Annotated Prcn.)
Chicago. Jan. I.—Four deaths and one
probably fatal shooting, two arrests for ’
drunkenness, packed hotel dining rooms,'
cabarets and restaurants, and thousands
of private house parties heralded the'
birth of the new year here. Despitel
the hilarity and the reported flow of li-l
quor in all sections of the city the po-1
lice said there was little disorder. The I
downtown district was crossed until early i
morning hours.
Prohibition agents reported the usual
distribution of liquor, but those who
drank did so on the quiet, they said.
The passing of liquors from flask and
bottle to mouth was not so much in evi
dence as in years past.
Deaths in Detroit.
Detroit. Mich.. Jan. 1. —Detroit police
believe a case of homicide was uncovered
with the finding of the body of Adolphe
Bonnie, 21 years old. in a house here :
early today. The man had been shot to
death. The only person in the place
when the body was found was arrested
and gave his name as Charles J. Corby.
There were indications, the police said, ■
that a New Year's celebration hud taken 1
place. (
Imogene Campbell. 17 years old, is
dead, and Joseph Ryan, a soldier, is se
riously wounded as the result of a shoot
ing affray in Mount Clemens, near here
early today. The police say that Ryan
shot the girl, and then turned the gun '
on himself, after a quarrel which follow
ed a gay New Year's party. '
New York Celebrates.
New York, Jan. 1 crowds i
despite the rapidly falling temperature, (
about tie sidewalks of New ,Y'ork j
far into the early hours of New 'fears
day in a carnival spirit, tooting horns and
clanging cowi bells, to make their greet
ing to the New Year audible above the
shrill whistles and the church chimes.
In the theatrical district the mass of
people was kepf in some form of slow mo
tion by 300 extra patrolmen, who were
nearly overwhelmed when theatres pour
ed out tlieeir patrons at the approach of
midnight.
Other sections celebrated in quieter
fashion. In the almost deserted financial
district the chimes of Old Trinity pealed
out patriotic and sacred songs. On Fifth
Avenue a crowd gathered before St. Pat
rick's Cathedral to hear the chimes.
Prosperity or a belief in prosperity ,
colored the celebrations in hotels and cab
arets. all of which were filled to over
flowing.
Many more who did not brave the cold
to celebrate in public listened in on va
rious radio programs.
The fire department answered its first
alarm when the year was but a minute
old only to find it to be a false alarm
turned in by a New Y'ear reveler.
Prohibition enforcement ranks were
greatly enforced but only one raid of con
sequence was during the early
morning hours when $o,0<)0 worth of
liquor was seised in a fashionable East
Side residence.

I SENTENCES TO ATTEND I
| CHURCH FOR A YEAR j
Are Imposed On First Offenders In
Cleveland. Ohio.
Cleveland, Jan. I.—The petty thief
whose dabbling in crime has just begun:
the too-careless devotee of the cup that
blears and sometime blinds; the way
ward youth above the age of juvenile
court jurisdiction, who comes into first
contact with the law through indiscriin
, inating choice of companions—are to be
given a chance to “get religion." by Po
lice Judge Francis Stevens, who today
began to sentence first offenders in mis
demeanor cases to church.
| The sentences to church will be elec
tive rather than compulsory, because the
I law does not prescribe sncli punishment.
I the judge said. The first four to take
the treatment now substituted for Judge
I Silbert’s famous "water cure" where
charged with intoxication. One was a
woman, Mrs. Helen Y’eager. The others
were John Dezo. Joe Fields and Joseph
Sibley.
All were given thirty days and costs
suspended on condition they attend
church services every Sunday for one
year and report each week on the sermon
topic.
Judge Stevens admitted that this last
requirement might swell the circulation
of Saturday newspapers carrying church
announcements, bnt he said any pro
bationer caught violating the trust in
him by copying his lessons from the pub
lie prints would be considered a failure
I from the standpoint of the religions ex

original sentence.

ILLS OF MANKIND DECIo\j»ED
AGAINST THE WH3£ OF GOD
“Wlien Men It Is Not God’s ’
WHFTo Take Them.” j
London, Jan. I.—-. When men die of
illness it is "not God’s will to take them," |
according to the Rev. Michael Bolton
Furse. Anglican bishop of St. Albans.
Addressing the St. Albants Diocesan
Conference the bishop asked: "If phys
ical disease as God’s will .and desire, why
did. Christ, who came to do His will,
fight against it and heal the sick ? I
cannot believe." he said, "that it is right
to say, when a human being dies of a
physical disorder, that it was god’s will
to take him.’ If I said that, I should
feel that I had blasphemed."
Bishop Furse added that no medical
practitioner would claim to have healed
oi- cured any one of disease. All that
could be claimed was that medicine had
helped nature to do her own work Os
healing.
As a Christian the bishop said he be
lieved that “what the physiologist calls
nature’s laws are God’s laws; that dis
ease and disorder in the physical sphere
are so much against God’s will as dis
ease or disorder in the moral and spirit
ual sphere.” I,

The letter represented one of the first
public activities of the klan here al
though there have been several public
appearance# of klansmen. The open let
ter sent to Mayor Thorne today, a copy
of which was also dispatched to a local
newspaper, was neatly typewritten on
klan stationery and was signed “Rocky
Mount Klan No. 113, Realm of North
Carolina. Knights of Fhe Ku Klux Klan."
It portrayed alleged activities of “mash
ers" on Main Street, particaularly around

Auto Horns Drive Monks to Secluded
Mountain Top.
Munich, Jan. 1. —The whirl of mod
ern life, exemplified by automobile horns,
radio, telephones and electric, light, is
getting too much for the Trappist monks
of Banz. Despairing of seclusion in
their present monastery near Bamberg,
they will soon withdraw to remote part
of the Bavarian mountains.
Several sites are under consideration,
one of them a mountain top where once
stood a baronial castle. Here it is felt
that the penitential and silent days of
. the Trappist brothers could be passed
without disturbance.

Gave Up What She Had and
Faces The New Year With .
a Smile Although She Is
Held Behind Prison Bars.
Jacksonville. Fin.. Jan, 1 (By tlie As- 1
soeiated Press). —Nellie Wright, pretty
17 year old widow of William E. Wright,
watched the New Year in from behind 1
bars in the .Jacksonville city jail.
Her brief period of wifehood, barely
more than three weeks, came to an end
ing ns tragic and dramatic as had been
-the entire married career, on Tuesday
when her husband was slain in Mobile
by an officer after he had injured two in
j a running fight.
• Nellie Wright, however, faced the New
i Year and what it may bring with a
smile, erased only by an occasional
thought of her lmsbnnd "Handsome Bill" 1
Wright.
The disposal of $12,545 found in her
possession worried her no more than the
approach of New Orleans authorities.
She said the money was a portion of the
loot from the New Orleans bank holdup,
in which Wright obtained $13,000. A 1
sawed off shotgun found in her trunk was
the weapon with which her husband in
timidated employes of the bank and
shot down a policeman in his dash for
freedom, she admitted.
She met Wright in Des Moines last
September. They were married Decem
ber sth in Kansas City. 1

Wright from the Frenchman Street
branch <sf the Marine .Blink & Trust
Company, on the day before Christmas,
according to the woman’s story to the
JucksonviWe police. Supt. of Police

placed against Mrs. Wright. A ines-1
sage from the Jacksonville police the girl

DECLARES W. J. BRYAN’S
VIEWS ARE DANGEROUS
Ohio Professor Asks Unprejudiced Co-
Operation in Science and Religion.
Washington, D. C., Dec. 30. —4
vances in psychologic medicinal, biolog •>'
chemistry nnd physics were disclosed 1
hundreds of papers read today before
the 15 sections of the American As
sociation for the Advancement of
Science, the seventy-ninth annual meet
ing of which is now in full swing.
Thirty-one hundred memuers were
registered during the day nnd a flurry
of interest was caused by a report that.
William J. Bryan would arrive in time
to listen to a criticism of his views on
evolution, but lie failed to appeal'.
The largest audience of any sectional
meeting thus fnr held attended that ad
dressor of zoology at Ohio Wesleyan
University, a Mehodist institution.
Choosing “Darwin and Bryan" ns his
text, Dr. Rice in a paper e.i a roc termed
the views of Mr. Bryan on evolution as
“dogmatic” and "dangerous to religion”
and urged more unprejudiced co-opera
tion in scientific and religion study.
Mr. Bryan's arguments, he said, were
deduced “from the assumption of the
literary accuracy of the Bible in gen
eral. nnd of the first two chapters of
Genesis in particular.” This assump
tion was “not Biblical” nor,was it “ac
cepted by leading Bible scholars of to
day,” Darwin’s work on the contrary
was represented as having been based
upon a hypothesis “followed by the
most complete verification and leading
to a degree of probability amounting to
practical certainty.”
Chimpanzees not. only appear to
think. Dr. Robert Md Yerkes. of the
Psychological Institute of, Y’ale Uni
versity, declared is a paper read before |
the psychological section. He based his 1
conclusions on studies made of two I
young chimpanzees, which lie said knew j
how to study a problem presented to
them in away essentially like that of
man nnd quite unlike that, ofany other
nimal.
“The great apes are intellectually
closer to men than we have hitherto
imagined.” Dr. Yerkes stated. “The evi
dence for their solution of problems
‘identionally’ is now abundant nnd con
vincing.”
Dr. Yerkes said one of the charac
teristics of the solving of problems by
chimpanzees was that the solution
seemed often to come suddenly to tnem
after a period of quiet reflection. In
reply to a question, he said it was pos
sible that chimpanzees might be taught
to read and write, or at. least to use
some sort of symbols.
“If they get that far there is no tell
ing how far they will go,” he declared.
Dwellers on Mars.
Inhabitants of Mars are either cave
dwellers, or they hibernate in winter like
polar bears in tbe opinion of Dr. W. AY.
CokflefUz. physicist of the Bureau of-
Stnndards. expressed in a paper read to
day to the American Physical Asso
ciation.
Dr. Coblentz described his >• recent
observations of the planet when it came
comparatively close to the earth, de
! daring that they convinced him that
I winters there are so severe that crea-
I lures like man couldn’t, live without
burrowing into the ground.
The temperature at the Martian
Equator at noon- Dr. Coblentz opined,
is about 40 to (SO degrees of our tem
perature, but it drops about 180 de
grees at night so that, dawn finds it at
about 140 degrees below zero.
The more stable and moderate tem
peratures in summer are probably at
the North and South Poles of' the
planet, he said, where temperatures go
neither so high nor so low as at the
equator.
As for the moon, Dr. Coblentz said
tests showed the temperature on the
sunny side to be about the boiling point,
while on the dark side it was 200 de
gree below zero.
Statistics Show Boy, Babies Have Not the
Strength of Girls.
Chicago, Jan. 1. —Boy babies have not
the same chance of living as girl babies,
they are the weaker sex. according to
Prof. S. J. Holmes, zoologist of the Uni
versity of California, speaking here to
day before the American Statistical As
sociation.
“In the first year of life many more
boys die than girls, the proportion of boy
deaths being greater in the first month
and gradually decreasing through the rest
of the year. Studies made in places,
periods and social strata where the infant
death Tate is low. show the radio of boy
deaths to girl deaths is high. As we
go back in embryonic life this ratio
steadily increases. The male, apparent
ly, is the weaker animal, at least at the
start of life.”
Grippe Is Causing Deaths in Belgium.
(By the Aasoclated I’remo
Brussels. Belgium. Jan. 1. —An epi
demic of grippe, due it is believed to the
recent/rapid changes in temperature, has
spread to all parts of Belgium, and is
