Stop Go Full Speed All Equally Smooth TWO WIVES JOIN PERRY At Trial of Husband of 7 Women for Killing One Eagle River, July 29 (U. Two of his seven wives joined George W. E. (Jiggs) Perry in Eagle River today, one to cheer him in his trial on charges of mur dering Mrs.

Cora Belle the other to confront him as an accuser when testimony starts, tomorrow. The latter was Mrs. Catherine Gcbhart, who became the first of his six bigamous brides in Cleveland, two years ago. She registered at a hotel, but did not go near the little tin-covered courthouse where attorneys sweltered as they completed a Jury, which was sworn in before luncheon. Confidence In Perry's innocence brought his only legal wife, Mrs.

Mary Perry, Milwaukee washerwoman, into the courtroom with her two-year-old daughter. An 18-year-old son also was present. "Give me my child!" the rotund one-eyed brakeman cried as Mrs. Perry entered the courtroom with his daughter, born after he deserted his family in 1929 and used an accident award to start the philandering career alleged to have included the bigamous marriage and subsequent honeymoon slaying of the widowed Mrs. Hackett.

The jury, accompanied by Perry and the attorneys In the case this afternoon visited the scene of the murder. TOY CALLS GRAND JURY FOR MEET Refuses to State What Business Will Be Brought Up Orders for the 22-man grand jury to convene at 9 a. m. August 18 were issued Wednesday by Prosecuting Attorney Harry S. Toy.

Mr. Toy refused to discuss the business the jury will take up at that time, or to say whether it would be disbanded. The jury, called originally to probe the slaying of Gerald E. Buckley, extended its investigations to several other specific crimes and Detroit underworld affairs generally. It has been in recess for several weeks.

That it does have further business to conduct is indicated by the fact that three men under sentence for kidnaping still are held as grand jury witnesses. They are Joseph Hrfgs) Laman. Stanley DeLong and Henrv R. Andrews. CITY TO BID G.

P.P. MEET State Leaders Boost Effort for 1932 Convention Michigan Republicans have given every encouraeement to tentative plans to bring the national Republican convention to Detroit next year, according to J. Lee Barrett, secretary of the Detroit convention and tourist bureau. Conferences so far have been informal and they will be continued during the next few weeks. It is expected that by early fall the campaign will have the backing of a strong state organization.

Governor Wilbcr M. Brucker, former Governor Fred W. Green, Senators James Couzens and Arthur Vandenberg, the Detroit congressmen, and other influential party leaders already have given their approval. Decisive action will await, however, the formation of a ways and means committee during the next few weeks and its success in securing a war chest. Money Is Prime Factor It is expected that a prime consideration with the national committee, when it meets in December to select the convention city, will be a convention fund of not less than $125,000.

Four years ago, when Detroit lost out to Kansas City in a three-way tight for the 1928 convention, the national body was advised by James E. Davison, national committeeman from Michigan, and by Mrs. Bina West Miller, fellow member, that the Invitation would be renewed this year. On that occasion, Detroit offered a certified check for $125,000 as an inducement. The convention bureau is ronfident that Michigan Republicans will duplicate the offer this year.

Chicago, Cleveland, Rivals Leading rivals for the convention honor are understood to be Philadelphia, runner-up four years ago, Chicago and Cleveland. Because of the changed political complexion of Illinois, with a Democratic senator and Democratic mayor in Chicago, and Ohio again in the doubtful column, it is regarded as probable the latter two candidates will be more formidable rivals than Philadelphia. Nothing has been done so far by the Detroit bureau towards a campaign to bring the Democratic convention to Detroit. This matter" may also be given consideration later. ACCUSED OF ROBBERY Chicago.

July 29 (A. Leland Harvey, 26, and Richard Roland. 39. who escaped from the Milledge-vile, state prison July 15, were held to the grand jury today on a charge of robbery and their bonds were set at $100,000 each. They were held for Georgia authorities.

ADVERTISING SWINDLE COSTS SOLICITOR TERM Jack Hendron, 35 years old, was sentenced to serve from two and a half to 10 years in Jackson penitentiary by Judge Thomas M. Cotter Wednesday. Hendron was found guilty July 22 on a charge of false pretenses when he sold advertising space February 13 in the fictitious "Michigan Cities and Counties Directorate" to John Richard, president of the Kosicky Bake Oven company. MOTHER CHARGED WITH SON'S DEATH Warrant Issued, but Unserved on Mrs. Schmidt First degree murder is charged in a warrant for the arrest of Mrs.

Katherine Schmidt, 42 years old, 651 Henry street, signed Wednesday by Judge Donald Van Zile. It is alleged Mrs. Schmidt asphyxiated her son, Alfred, 5, Tuesday morning, when she tried to take her own life with gas. Mrs. Schmidt is in Receiving hospital recovering from the effect of the fumes.

She has not been told of Alfred's death nor of the warrant. Police say Mrs. Schmidt locked herself and the boy in the kitchen of her home and opened the gas jets of the stove. Another son, Herbert, 9, called officers when he could not get into the kitchen. Near-Heir Lacks $9 Taxicab Fare A matter of a mere $9 was graphically cleared up In Judge John P.

Scallen's court Wednesday when a golden tale of a $3,000,000 will, a $200,000 legacy, and a "life story" worth $10,000 tumbled recklessly from the lips of David Macintosh, 51, of 5228 Shaw avenue. Macintosh, to ease his grief at the failure of a deceased uncle who promised him $200,000 to come through, rode Jack Robert's taxi to the extent of $9. When Robert demanded payment, Macintosh made the rounds of newspaper offices, offering his "life story" at the bargain price of $10,000. Not one of the journals even made the necessary down payment. Wednesday, in court, Macintosh revealed that an estate of was shortly to be split four ways and surely the $9 would then be forthcoming.

The case was adjourned until Thursday. TRANSPORT VETERANS PLAN REUNION IN CITY L. P.

MINDING HER HISBAND'S blind pig in his absence was tolerable, but the straw that broke the camel's back, she said, was the note from her transient spouse, "to be kind to a little blonde I'm sending home." Mrs. Helen Heubner, 3791 West Fort street, sobbed the story of a Romeonic husband before Judge Joseph A. Moynihan in circuit court Wednesday.

Ho took the divorce case under advisement. CARRIER PIGEON NO. .10339 Wednesday announced, in ao many words, that it had selected the J. L. Hudson company store as Its permanent welfare lodge.

No. 10339, who flew in a window of the hosiery repair department on the fifteenth floor Tuesday and lit on the lap of one Mrs. Laura Meyer, did the unbelieveable yesterday. It seems that the carrier pigeon, contrary to dope, did not fly away as soon as it was rested. It liked the place, It appears, and put up there for the night in charge of Edward Cochran, building superintendent.

Early in the morning, after lounging around for an hour or so, No. 10339 saw it was good day, naid his thanks, and took off. Employes watched it speed high over the building tops of Woodward avenue. At 2 p. Mrs.

Meyer got the nhock of her life. In the same window by which it had entered the previous day came Pigeon No. 10339 and laid down for the rest Of the day.

Unfortunately, we didn't get his name.

He is a -watchman at the Holy Sepulchre cemetery In Royal Oak township, and he discovered a fire Tuesday night in a garage on the property, where seven cars were housed. In his excitement to turn in the fire alarm he pulled the telephone from the wall, and -only ashes remained of the building when Are departments arrived. AFTER YEARS of research on he habits of milkmen a project that has necessitated considerable loss of sleep a new one was discovered the other morning. After leaving two bottles of milk on a front porch, this milk peddler disappeared around the side of the house and knelt in the shadows for a few minutes. He came back to his horse and wagon holding something in his hand.

It turned out to be a handful of gravel that he picked up where the drip from a leaky rain spout falls. It seems that his horse gets absent-minded about starting or else takes naps while he delivers the milk. One of the little stones gets the mount started. A whip doesn't help much when he's two or three houses ahead of the horse. DRIVER OF Checker cab (he'd hetter remain anonymous because of his chicane! does a neat trick with a fire hydrant and a pair of collegiate trousers.

Mrs. Neike looked around and halted. It ended her ride. The two policemen simply were trying to learn if Mrs. Neike was deaf and dumb as the police claim she said she was In notes asking donations from merchants around Seven-Mile road and Gratiot.

UNTIL YESTERDAY we thought bell-hops were just born to wear uniforms well and march with a West Point tread, but we learned differently. We had dropped Into the Book Cadillac lobby. It was high noon. There was a hushed air. Suddenly a whisper: "Here they come!" A muffled order followed and down the lobby in Indian file marched 17 bellboys.

Each one was separated by six paces from his follower. The march continued. Seven youths left the group, with sharp right angle turns at the elevator alcove The others proceeded until their leader had stationed himself at the head Dallas Todd of the Washington boulevard stairway and others had taken up their posts at designed points in the lobby. There was another command and they stopped at attention with arms folded. You could have floored us it was so swell.

Before going on duty they must pass inspection by Dallas J. Todd, superintendent of service. "Uniforms are most important," he explained. "We pay particular attention to the white ties and the shoes. Then we inspect fingernails.

"The bellhop is important. He must be well groomed and courteous because he is a go-between for every department in the hotel. Here are a few of the 45 rules in the manual: "If you discover in rooming a guest that his bag is unusually light, report this at once to bell captain. "A boy caught smoking in the building will be dismissed. "When riding in elevator with guests, step respectfully to one, side, stand up straight on both feet, hands at Bide.

Pass no remarks to operator and do not whistle or hum." One of Todd's strangest stories concerns a man who designed a new type of garage. He came to Detroit to lay the plan before Henry Ford, but was unable to get an audience. For more than a year he sat in the lobby hoping someday to see Mr. Ford there. SURVEYORS' TELESCOPES and other aids to vision, as well as "instruments of precision," were hastily requisitioned by employes of Gregory, Mayer Thorn when an alert clerk on an upper floor descried a roof garden show not announced through the usual advertising columns.

A dozen girls of a burlesque house on Monroe avenue had ascended to the theater roof' and doffing the "thick woolen clothing" which they usually wear on the stage, had spread themselves out. in attractive groupings "au naturel" and were absorbing sunshine in huge chunks. Camera men, ordinarily alert, failed in this instance to maintain their reputation for always "being where news happens when."

Christenscn, 24 years old. 16134 Tuller avenue, used it Tuesday night, when a stickup man put a gun in her back and prattled to her for more than two blocks. He went away when the door slammed.

THE LOCALE OF THIS STORY cannot be revealed; the setting, however, is in Detroit. When a certain home brewer with a philan thropic trend of mind feels his newly-bottled beer is ready for con sumption he rings an old school bell, which calls a half hundred of his neighbors to quench their thirst. His popularity during the warm spell this summer has been some thing immense.

MILTON SCHNITZER, 2631 Ha- zolyood avenue, and George Saper stein, 3205 Hazelwood avenue, both 19. had tried to swim from Belle Isle to the Detroit shore. In midstream Schnitzer got cramps.

YO HO AND a bottle of Sam-shu, the deck was bloody red, where pirates wearing coolie coats had shot the captain dead. The fairly good ship Tungchow, in the China Yellow sea, was in the R. B. McAFEE hands of yellow men and so was McAfee. R.

are his Initials and he went to Bias Bay with a score of other white folk who were bucca neered away. Just two days out of Shanghai on the Tungchow for Tientsin when he heard the chants of Jen Tao, such a weird unearthly din. "Yea-ho, yea-ho," they seemed to sing, to speed their pirating, as they turned the boat towards Hong Kong and levied everything. The six-score honest sailormen were battened In the hold while 40-some-odd pirates ransacked the ship for gold. Some 50 miles from Hong Kong the ship, without a flag, reduced its steam and lay abeam tive sampans near a crag.

In Bias Bay the boat had turned where bad men lurk galore, to plunder honest merchant ships and strew their decks with gore. They stripped the silks and gold and lace and jewelry from the rooms. They swung out costly pack ages and treasures with the booms. Then slealthily slinking through the bav the sampans scuirnied awav, and left the boat to white folk who lost their all that day. And McAfee, who went to see the trouble from the deck, was free to venture forth again, the fetters off his neck.

Passengers aboard the ship, who numbered women, too, iwori to wreak a vengeanca on Sing Chang, tha buckaroo. And when they reached the Shanghai docks in anger they protested to consuls and to generals on being thus molested. So squads of soldiers wearing gray were marched to Bias Bay to catch Sing Chang in hiding and to make him pay and pay. His head was in one basket and his wriggling body cast to the crooked streets of Shanghai, where the coolies chattered. There they saw their public enemy with his just deserts at last.

(R. B. McAfee, First National hank, tells this epic to dispute Round the Town's recent statement that City Historian Clarence M. Burton 's the only Detroiter ever to be kidnaped by pirates. McAfee was for several years connected with the American Oriental bank at Shanghai and Tientsin.
