probably wfll be the central tneine
of the cpeech. Negotiations al
ready are In progress tor a nation
wide radio hook-up to carry his
words into all parts of the coun
try. Various other goyernment offi
cials and political friends dropped
in upon the general headquarters
of the candidate before he closed
his desk for the week-end, includ
' log Commissioners Sandberg and
Myers, who laid before him the
shipping board's views on mer
chant marine matters.
Smith Declared Weak
R or aback urged the nominee tq
. ricit Connecticut during his trip
into the New England states. He
. brought the riew that the wet ele
ment in Connecticut was "not as
strong as some people think," and
declared that "the' Connecticut
people are realizing that the pro
hibition promises of Governor
Smith are not very substantial."
"Before the end of the cam.
paign," the Connecticut man said,
"they will come to a realization
that be does not premise any-
" thing; One man cannot influence
a sufficient number of states to
alter the constitution."
Roraback said that the domi
' nant issue of the campaign in his
state would be tariff.
ti The people of Connecticut will
not trade prosperity for a glass of
beer, he said.
Massachusetts Said Safe
Prince declined to reveal the
nature of his conversation with
Mr. Hoover, but ventured the pre-
. diction that Massachusetts would
. be found in the republican col
umn in November.
Taber, asserting that the rural
dl8tricta of up-state New York are
try, considered the farm prob
lem , the issue upon which would
binge the totes of that section of
the state. Mr. Hoover's declare-
- tions upon farm relief were satis
factorily received there, he said-
Senator Watson, of Indiana, who
called upon the candidate with
Leslie M. Shaw, former secretary
of the treasury, told the candidate
that the Hoosier state would be
safely republican this year.
"Nothing more than a political
revolution can upset the over
whelming margin by which Indi
ana is republican," the senator
said, "and there is nothing of that
sort in sight." f

Dutch pianist will appear Sunday,

ler's childhood days read like a
fairy tale. Born of poor Dutch
parents, his early musical train
ing was limited. At the age of
five he participated in a piano re
cital which 'was attended bv an
emissary of the queen. News
came back to her majesty of the
lad's ability. An invitation
brought him to court where he
played for professors of -the Paris
conservatory. They were amazed
by the child's genius and talent.
Through the qneen's generosity
Ziegler was sent to Paris, Rome,
and London; in fact to all of the
famous European music centers.
During the past few years he
has been invited to play before
nearly all of the principal royal
families of Europe.
Fanchon and Marco's "Ban-
Joys" idea, besides introducing
Robert Ziegler to the Eisinore
theatre brings Eddie Peabody and
his "Pate" in a pepp stage re
vue. This is Peabody's first tour
around the circuit and is made
possible by Fanchon and Marco's
"Banjoys" idea, which was es
pecially produced by them to fea
ture him. Others appearing in
the show are Jimmie Maisell. Al

QUEER BOOK-MARKS FOUND

All Sorts Of Articles, Including Currency and
Screwdrivers Left in Returned
' Volumes
Scene from "Night Life," Tiffany production which la being
shown T the Oregon theatre, -
By ,ROZKLLA BUNCH
Hare you ever undergone the
harrowing experience of leaving
"John's" last passionate epistle in
a particularly engrossing cnapter
of "Heart 'Throbs" or whatever
novel you had been reading and
had just returned to a stern-appearing
individual presiding at the
desk in your Carnegie library?
V Only those who have actually
done this sort of j thing will know
the peculiar feeling attendant
upon such carelessness. You
could not go back and ask for
your letter, for you felt that such a
course would be impossible, so in
all probability you blushed deep.
Ily and found some solace in the
fact that there-were thousands of
Marys in the world and at least
that many Johns so perhap. after
all, you would not be tracked
down as the pbject of the infat
uated John's affections. (At leasf
this is what we did. in a similar
situation.)
Some readers are more c ireful
of t-ieir iove letters but send
other interesting trinkets, if any.
to the library. Just why he read
ers feel obligated to send anything
is a mystery which we have yet to
solve. Perhaps, it is a gift to the
librarian or may be it is merely an
easy way to rid the readers of un
welcome belongings.
On a recent visit to our city li
brarian we had occasion, (or rath
er, we made occasion) to ask her
what she had found in her search
through returned reading ; matte.
The staggering list Included, as
she. herself put it "everything
from toothpicks to .money."
One of the regular library pa-
trons, a Russian woman decidedly
foreign in appearance and accent,
although we regret to say, not un
duly so in habits, was addicted to
the practice of depositing ten dol
lar bills in her borrowed books.
Only a short time ago she rushed
frantically into the reading room,
hastened up to the desk and de
manded her money. Her bill had
been found by an attendant who
was by this time rather familiar
with the woman's peculiarity, and
after several more or less tactful
admonitions as to the proper and
Improper places to deposit money,
the woman was given her bill
which she stuffed into a worn
knitted bag, muttering some re
mark which no one pressed her
to explain.
Other article which readers
frequently employ as book marks
are toothpicks and j hairpins
(which we, ourselves thought and.
in the former case, hoped, were
definitely passe), pencils, deposit
books, letters, buttonhooks,
combs. : files and handkerchiefs.
Papers of all kinds, examination
papers, receipts, the water bill,
laundry, electric lightj grocery
and. meat bills, and correspond
ence of all kinds are the? common
est marks.
One of the most peculiar ..arti
cles to drop from a shelf of re
turned books was a small screw
driver. - One would think that
such an Implement would be rath
er unwieldy as a book mark but
of course everyone, has; his own
choice even in such trivial mat
ters as this. Small mirors very
often are found In the lighter fic
tion as the frivolity of the marker
would signify.
Both parties have got ; such bi
campaign chests this year that -cr-
ery State is doubtful and hope-
