A bqgy of men said to number be
tween 300 and 400 assembled to
day at Marmet, east of here, for
the purpose of marching into
Mingo county where an Industrial
controversy has prevailed for
more than a year and which isd

to reports reaching Charleston
this afternoon.
A fund of $1,000,000 deposited
in the National City Bank, New
York, by the Russian Soviet gov
ernment has virtually vanished.
Jacques Roberto Clbrario, sent to
the United States to make pur
chases by the Soviet government,
was arrested In New York recent
ly, charged' with misappropriating
a large part of the money. Scarce
ly $100,000 of the original fund
remains In the bank. Clbrario
came to New York in 1919 to buy
motion picture projectors and
films for the Soviet Committee of
Public Education in Moscow.
Prior to entering the employ of
the Russian government he was a
$45-a-week clerk. It is alleged
that since coming to New York he
has been living at the rate of
$76,000 a year and maintained a
magnificent bachelor apartment
in an exclusive section of the city.
Cause of Row Between Lou
And Geraldine Is Mystery
(By International Newt Service.)
New York, Aug. 20. After
ream of publicity, following Mrs.
Geraldine Farrar-Tellegen's ejec
tion of her husband's clothes from
their abode and denial of home
privileges to Lou Tellegen, actor, a
cloud of silence has settled over
the family troubles of the famous
and temperamental operatic star,
and no one professes to know what
Is at the bottom of the squabble.
There are Indications that neith
er Tellegen nor Geraldine is over
much pleased with the way things
are going, as regards publicity. In
that respect they are not alone, for
James A. Stlllman, multi-millionaire
ex-banker, who is reported to
have had some disagreement with
his wife, also found newspaper no
toriety rather displeasing, if not to
say, distasteful.
Anyhow, Geraldine has found It
is one thing to lock one's husband

and quite another to have it all I Church Street,

what their fracas is all about. nh.n,rgnl, ,wn v1 rlllr.
In the matter as to tell. Mr. Telle
gen that she would arrange the
incidental music for the produc
tion. "Mr. Tellegen feels very hurt at
the statement that he had not paid
his share of home expenses or con
tributed anything toward the sup
port of the house."
Snake Bite Victim
Can't Get Remedy
New York, Aug. 20. James Mc
Ardle, a keeper In the Bronx Zoo,
was reported recovering today
from the effects of a bite by a
copper head snake.
McArdle asked for a drink of
whisky which he declared was the
best remedy for snake bite, but
the doctors at a hospital where he
was taken told him there was no
whisky in the institution. They
She even went so fari gave him a serum instead.
Makes Love to Dozen
"Mr. Tellegen has asked me to
make a statement to the newspa
pers. "Mr. Tellegen in May signed the
contract to appear as the star in
'Don Juan.' We believed that there
was no other man on the atage
able to play the part that of
making love to twelve women at
once. It Is silly to Bay that Miss
Farrar ojected to this his mak
ing love to so many women on the
stage.
"As a matter of fact, Miss Far
rar read the play, and Mr. Tellegen
told us that she wanted to buy a

The eminent British publisher,

by polka-dot? Never heard of such
a thing. The dot I understand
but why the polka?"

that jealousy on the part of Ger

to the live-act role and embracing
stage-sweethearts again, was the
cause of the family squabble.
"Mr. Tellegen has been busy all

Reading of this disturbed state
of the titled mind a Chicago re
porter unearthed this explanation
for him:
"Polka dot. In 1835 Neruda, a
Bohemian dancing instructor, was
travelling in Poland and observed
a peasant girl dancing a new step.
He learned it and brought It back
to Paris. The feminine of 'Polak'
is 'Poloka' and he shortened it,
calling the dance the polka dance.
The dance spread to America and
the fact that James Polk was the
new president then added to the
popularity of the step. Merchants,
quick to trade on the coincidence
of the name, immediately named
the new fabric which came out
that season the "polka dot,' be-
