NEW YORK, Mar. 21—Jack Demp
sey, world’s heavyweight champion,
left the Polyclinic hospital today after
a confinement of a week, following an
operation for hemmorhoids and an ab
scess. He walked unaided to a taxicab
and went to a hotel.

nied that the effects of his operation
would handicap his fighting program j
for 1924. He said he will take things i
easy for a couple of weeks.

COSTLY PRACTICE
FOR RESORT ROSS
SAN FRANCISCO, March 20—The
nodding of his head directing a bar
tender to serve or not to serve custom
ers was held by the United States cir
cuit court of appeals here today to in
dicate that Joseph Dukich, resort boss
of Spokane, Wash., owned beverages
banned by the Volstead law.
Therefore Dukich must serve six
months in jail and pay a fine of $500,
as directed by the United States dis
trict court in Seatle.
IN NUMBER OF SPOIS
EUGENE, Ore.. Mar. 20—There are
several especially weak places in the
crust of the earth, said Dr. Warren D.
Smith, professor of the University of
Oregon here, in a discussion of earth
quakes.
“One of these,” he explained, “is
the Straits of Messina, between Sicil
ly and Italy, where in 1908 a very de
structive earthquake took place. An
other is the junction of the Pacific
arc with the Indo-Malayan arc. This
i is in the region of Java and the Phil
ippines. Some exceedingly devastating
i earthquakes have taken place in those
' rgions. Another place is the Chilean
coast and still another is along the San
Andreas Rift in California.
“Perhaps the most unstable part of
the earth’s crust today is in the north
; west part of the Pacific bordering
the great Tuscarora Deep. A broad
of folded rocks includes the entire
archipelago of Japan, the Philippines
and New Guinea in the western Pacif
ic, and this belt runs right around the
i Pacific ocean. This is the first major
| feature of the Pacific.
“East of this region is the great
i trough known as the Tuscarora Deep.
To the south of this, just east of
the Philippines, is a still greater deep
which is a continuation of the one east
of this trough is a submerged moun
tain i*ange, in fact several, but one ir
particular which apparently is rising
and some day will form a new festoon
of islands paralleling Japan and the
Philippines.
“According to the latest investiga
tions of the Pacific, great thrusts due
to accommodations in the outer shell
of the earth, are taking place in the
direction of the Asiatic continent.”

SLICE IT OFF, II NEW
METHOD TO REDUCE
CHICAGO, Mar. 21.—A trail thru the
operating room to girlish suppleness
and that “you just knew she wears
them figure,” has been blazed here b>
Mrs. Thomas F. Byrne.
For years, according to Mrs. Byrne ,
she has been alarmed at the rapid in- j
crease of “too solid flesh.” Every new ,
reducing scheme has found her a will
ing and anxious customer. She wore
rubber girdles, she sweated, she hoist
ed dumb bells, she swung Indian clubs,
but all to no avail.
And them the announcement of Dr.
Leslie F. MacDonald of the University
Hospital that unwanted averdupois
could be carved away and Mrs. Byrne
just tramped to the hospital.
“li's really too simple,” she said as
she smiled down at her toes, strangers
for many years. “The surgeons just
cut off all the fat and sew you up and
there you are. Not bad to take and a
success at last.”
CM HOT SPRINGS
AGAIN BE REOPENED
The Chena hot springs, once a pop- |
ular health resort, within easy dis- J
tanee of Fairbanks, will again be re
opened to pleasure and health seekers j
who will there find all the comforts to
be desired at a nominal price. Otto
C. Meyer, who for a number of years
has successfully operated the Circle |
Hot Springs, has purchased all the in
terests of George S. Wilson, original
staker of the Chena Springs home- j
stead, in the resort, including land,
springs and improvements.
Mr. Meyer announces that those
springs will be opened immediately.
He returned last night from the Circle
Springs where he made arrangements
to moving.
Ed Bartlett, who is operating a
stage line on the Circle trail will
place a stage on the Chena Springs
trail, making weekly trips. Mr. Meyer
states that a trail will be cut by waf
of Chena river eliminating the old
dome route, which is difficult and a
great deal longer.
The charge for accommodations at
the springs, to include meals, baths
and beds, will be $25 a week. Cabins
may be rented for $30 a month, and
with these will be supplied fuel and
ail bathing privileges. Food will be
sold to campers at reasonable rates.
IDENTITY WOMAN REVEALED
NEW YORK, Mar. 22—The identi
fication of the bobbed hair woman, ar
rested after an attempt to rob a Man
hattan tailor shop, as the wife of Al
bert Guimares, friend of Dorothy Kee
nan, who was murdered a year ago,
announced the police. The woman was
arrested after a man companion escap
ed. Her husband is in the penitentiary
serving a three year term at Atlanta
for using the mails to defraud.

CHICAGO, Mar. 21.—A race of men
iving unclothed under rock ledges and
iverhanging cliffs, with a history that
s not traceable, and who speak an
incouth dialect that has no similarity
o any known language, is described
is existing in North India, by the Rev.
VI. Wells Branch, returned Methodist
missionary.
Their bodies, covered with dark
hair from living without shelter, are
slightly Mongolian in type, small of
stature, and they are without weap
ons. They use only the crudest tools,
yet they live in forests in which roam
tigers, leopards, bears and wclves.
“They are. like shadows in the for
est and will salute no one,” said Mr.
Branch, who lived near thorn for a de
cade. “They make wooden dishes
with their knives, and are expert in
whittling. When they wish to sell
any oi their dishes they come out of
the forest, put down their wares and
retire into the jungle. 'J in- traveler
then inspects them and it he wants
any leaves grain or other food or any
thing of equal value.
“They are not warlike and are the
most timid denizens of the forest.
They are wonderful tree climbers but
do not live in them. How they man
age to survive life in the Forests amid
the wild animals is more than anyone
knows.
“They believe themselves all de
scendents from royal blood. For this
reason they call themselves Rajahs,
and claim to be descended from the
Forefathers of the Raj bar family, the
ruling house of Askot, a native state
of that region. Some of the number
occasionally visit the village bazaars,
but no one can talk with them save by
signs.”
