Chapter 43 HOMECOMING TAMES ran the entire two miles from the house at Oak and North fifth to the Mansion. To his disor dered imagination It seemed that Jane was just behind him. a sort of disembodied Jane, all staling eyes uid clutching predatory bands. He was near hysteria when he reached bis old home and pounrled frantically on the front door. Lights came on, upstairs and down. He heard Nappy's voice Inquiring am tously who was there. "Me," he sailed. "Let me In." "The door opened slowly. James itaggered into the hall and would have fallen but for Nappy's support ing arm. Miss Sarah called quaver Ingiy from above. "Who Is It? Who Is it?" VAin't nobody but the General. Tou and Aunt Lou go on hack to bed. " 4 s ' Or Mr, Northrup emerged with purple cheeks and eyes snapping. The General ain't feeling ao very good.

She smelted at last the ttal reek of liquor that was his breath. James looked up ut her. "You think I'm drunk," he aaid thickly. "Well, I'm not. I've run two miles. I've run away from Jane. And I'm never going hack. Do you hear me? Never. Because 1 don't like her yes." Well, intoxicated or not, decided Miss Sarah, he was 6(111 hor hoy and Jane undoubtedly was responsible. "There, thoro, dear," she said ten derly. "It's all right. You're homo now. I'll get tho bed ready. Whan you've rested a little Nappy will tjelp you upstairs." i VJAPPY brought James a long glass of cold water and James fulped It thirstily. "Urn um, you sure mutt a bad a snoot full."

May 4. ( AP A new disease, a twin of diabetes, which .'hows itRfilf in excessive hunger, was reported to the American College of Physicians today. Scale Harris, M.D.. Profestior Emeri tus of Medicine nt the University of Alabama, made the report today. "The new disease entity, hypcrin nulism." his report said, "the opposite condition to diabetes, results from excessive secretion of insulin by the pancreas." Lack of insulin is the main cause of diabetes. "Hyprrlnsullsm." Dr. Harls re ported, "has been called the "hunger disease." because the victim of the mild type frequently becomes excea Hlvcly hungry, weak and nervous three or four hours after meals. He obtains relief by eating. "In the more severe cases, the nymptoms arc referable to the heart, stomach and nervous system. "The excessive use of sweets, par ticularly candy, syrup, may cause this new disease because they stimu late. the pancreas to secrete an excess of Insulin.

(UP) The crlm l inal lawyer who banks on the last j minute alibi to Iree his client rc celved a severe setback at the hand.' : of the Kansas legislature -when an alibi law was passed making it man i datory to give seven days notice j that an alibi will be used, i Although Kansas. In revising the 1 criminal code, enacted a death pen I nlty law. most lawyers consider the , fillbt measure of vastly greater lm ! portance. Prosecutors say It will ; greatly restrict the use of the altbt which so frequently has been em ployed at the last minute when it was Impossible for the state to check on the veracity of the alibi witnesses. If the defense does not give the required week's notice of Intention to use an alibi, but later decides ; on such a defense, the stnte will be , entitled to demand a continuance of the ease, the new code provides. Adoption of the death penally for defendants more than 18 years old tn first degree murder cases ended a six-year fight for it. The legisla- : ture decreed that death should be by hanging at the state prison at Lanslnc. Warden Laccy Simpson, who will ; supervise executions, said the gal lows would be erected by prisoners.
