CHICAGO. July 22. (A. P.)
Cigarettes may not affect u
woman's morals, but they'll kill
her beauty, advises Mrs. Ruth
Mnuror. nrcsldcnt of the Amor-
lean Cosmeticians society.
"I have no personal objec-
lions to cigarette Bmoklng, but

for infants, today was sentenced to
thre and a half to seven years In Au
burn prison on a charge of baby sub
stitution, to which she had pleaded
guilty.
A probation officer's report sub-,,
mitted to the court before sentenced
was pronounced characterized her as
a "woman without conscience, who
had strangled, frozen to death and
otherwise disposed of infants left in
her care." .
The report said since February,
1018, at least 53 infants had died while
in Mrs. Geisen-York's charge. It al-,
leged that she treated children In any
way if it meant financial benefit to
herself, that she destroyed children
for a consideration and non-paying ba
bies because they were liabilities.
I "She had no maternal affections, at
-least with reap oct .to .the,, babies of
other people," the report said. "To
her they were , puppies, articles of
merchandise, to be bartered or ex
changed." Mrs. Gelson-volk was arrested last
May when she attempted to give a
strange ' baby to William Angerer, a
steamfitter's assistant, in plane of the
seven months old son ho had placed
In her care.
Judge Mclntyro asked her in court
today what she did with the missing
baby and the reply was "It died and I
left in in a hallway In a satchel."
'Why did you do that?" asked the
judge. -
I "Because one of the relatives of tho
baby asked me to," was tho reply.

Investigation of Strange Trag
edy in California, Leads to
Suspicion That Honolulu
Man Was Bound, Gagged
and Murdered.
BRAWLEY, Cal., July 22. (A. P.)
Indications that H. Kirk, former
Honolulu photographer was murdered
with his hands tied, not shot In a duel
and that rivalry over the affections of
a woman may have prompted his slay
ing and the suicide of John Truden,
whose body was found at Jacumba
last Monday, were being scrutinised
by police and sheriff's investigators tq
day. A letter written by Truden before
he killed himself told of a duel at 12
paces with .38 caliber revolvers, "pur
chased for the purpose In San Diego,"
and explained that since he had been
victorious In the exchange of bullets
with Kirk, his enemy ton. six years, it
devolved upon him to write finis to
the feud by putting a bullet through
his own brain.
Late yesterday, however, the city
marshal of Imperial found a knot
ted silk stocking, a knotted necktlo
and an army belt, all bloodstained,
concealed near the spot where Kirk's
body was found. WlHps of hair re
sembling Kirk's clug to tho stocking
and necktie, which apparently had
been cut, from the body of one who
had been gagged with the stocking
while his hands were tied with the
necktie and his feet bound together
with the belt. The officers said he
was Batlsfiod Kirk met death bound
and gagged.
In the Honolulu man's coat was
found a letter from a woman in that
city dealing , at some length -with a
past love affair with Kirk and contain
ing the sentence: . "Our affair can go
on.no longer."...,, . - - '
' Truden -was'-a1 formei 'ormymnn
but whether, he. was- ever . stationed
In Honolulu or ever lived there as a
civilian had not been determined early
today. - .
Kirk, it was learned, had packed his
belongings and -made arrangements
to leave fur Honolulu a few hours bo
foro death cancelled his plans.

WASHINGTON, July 22. (A. P.)
Declaring there iwas danger that
the Amerjcnn government might- im
pair its efficiency In the enforcement
of President Coolldge's economy pro
gram, A. W. Fryc, supreme' com
mander of the Maccabees (old the
organization today that what the
people were Interested "In was elimi
nation of the pork barrel.
"We are all behind the president
In his program of business adminis
tration of national finances," he said,
"but when economy Is practiced to
the extent of parsimony, it defeats
Its own ends."-
He added that there seemed to be
a general belief on tho part of
"politicians and statesmen," that the
people object to paying taxes and
that the appeal to the "pocketbook"
was heard on every side.
"the average man," he said, "does
not want to pay any more taxes
than necessary to properly maintain
our government, but he Is willing
and eagot to. pay enough to promoto
our national progress and assure our
national safety."
After referring to technical work
ers leaving the government service
as a result of the salaries Issue and
the question of the defenso of Ha
waii, Mr. Frye added:
"It Is fine to save tho taxpayers
money but we, the taxpayers, don't
want our national honor jeopardized
for tho sake 'of a few dollars. Wo
can't place the dollar, as mighty as
It Is, ahead of the flag."
