Taking the floor in t inventor
Kcily' hehalf. Representative Tiinh.
er. rrpuldican, Kansas, threw ths
house into turmoil hy iharging that
Mr. Davit.V animosity was personal

the $20. KM) from the treasury. In
dignantly denying the charge. Mr.
Davila vainly sought u chance to
upeak. lie was cut off hy the expira
tion of his allotted time, but later
given time to anwrr the Tincher
allegations and shouted his ('enun
ciation of the governor.
The commissioner explained that
several years ago the legislature,
over his published protest, passed a
hill giving him $5,111)0 a year in ad
dition to his salary as a delegate,
that he refused to accept it and so
announced in the newspapers. A
year later, he said, the legislature
again passed the bill which he op
posed, and Judge Homier, the audi
tor, held in May, 19l, that it was
unconstitutional.
Says Governor Lies.
"That was long before President
Harding's election and long before
Keily was thought of as governor
of the island." Mr. Davila exclaimed.
"'When he said it was brought to his
attention and that he vetocl the
bill I am compelled to say that he
lies, lies and- he knows he lies.'
Having accepted the charge.?, Mr.
Tincher, interrupting the commis
sioner, explained that his statement
as to the veto was based on a state
ment in a letter over the governor's
signature. As he made this explana
tion, Mr. Tincher held up a letter
which members took to be from the
governor, but which was not read.
The commissioner presented a
, message from President Barcclo oi
the Porto Rican senate, saying it
had refused to confirm the gover
nor's appointments and that he had
made recess appointments. The reso
lution of the senate asking for an
investigation, also was piit in. There
were reports that a resolution call
ing for an investigation would be
' introduced today, but none was
forthcoming.
Mourners Burned When ,
Bier Draperies Catch Fire
New York, March 2. Five mourn
ers around the bier of Angelina Zar
carese, 4, were seriously burned to
day when the draperies on the little
coffin caught fire from lighted
candles in the Zarcarese home in
Brooklyn. Soon the whole room was
blazing. x
When the firemen arrived they
tcere driven back by the intense heat
and thick smoke. The five bodies
of the .mourners lay on the floor.
Playing their hoses in front of
. them and stumbling through the
smoke, the firemen finally were able
to drag to safety the five adults and
J-escue the charred body of the little
girl from the blaring coffin.
CHAPTER Xlf.
A Midnight Frolic.
Master Meadow Mou-e had

Ut the cornfield to live, be had been

two week in and out of lii new

to see. His side bulged. And be
hail a look, as if his skin weren't
big enough for him.
I .iff bad become very easv for
Master Meadow Mouse. He didn't
even have to leave home to get all
the corn he could eat. He simply
crept out of his nest, and right
there in his comshock he had two
doen ears of ripe corn. He didn't
need to set foot to the ground, un
less tc wanted a drink.
Of course Master Meadow Mouse
wasn't content to stay at home
morning, noon and night. He
scampered away whenever he
please. Sometimes he went for a
swim in Itroad lirook. Sometimes
he visited his cousins, who dwelt
in other shocks in the cornfield. And
every night he joined the big
Meadow Mouse family in a frolic.
They chased one another around the
pumpkins that strewed the ground,
dodged behind the shocked corn, or
ran along the rail fence.
During the daytime Master
Mouse and bis companions lay low.
When they went abroad they kept a
close watch for Mr. Crow. Late
as it was, the old gentleman still
lingered in Pleasant Valley. Al
though his cronies had started on
their yearly jottrney to the south
he let it be known that be was ex
pecting to spend the winter in thi
north.
"I've noticed signs." he bad said
"that tell me we're going to have a
mild winter."
Whenever Mr. Crow visited the
cornfield, the Meadow Mouse family
hastened to bide. Thcv didn't try
to go to their own homes, but
plunged inside the nprest shocks
of com. 1
Mr. Crow was far from stupid. lie
knew what was going on right un
der his nose or fits bill. Flapping
towards the cornfield from the
woods, he could see a great scurry
ing of small, reddish-brown per
sons. But, when he settled down in
the field, there was never a
Meadow Mouse anywhere in sight.
"They're stealing corn!" the old
gentleman spluttered. "I'd stop
them if I could. Rut what can I
do when they hide the moment they
see me coming?"
The old fellow pondered over the
question.
"Somebody," he said, "will have
to tear these shocks apart in order
to catch the Meadow Mouse people.
And I don't anyone that could it
better than Fatty Coon."
Now, Mr. Crow knew where Fatty
Coon lived, in a hollow tree in Cedar
Swamp. And he actually started to
fly over to the swamp to ask Fatty
Coon to rid the cornfield of the
Meadow Mouse farrmy.
But. on the way to Cedar Swamp,
Mr. Crow happened to think of
something. He happened to think
that Fatty Coon had an enormous
appetite and was very fond tf corn.
Mr. Crow tuddenly veered mf hi
tuiglit course and alighted in a
tree,
"That will never do," he croaked,
"Fattv would eat more than all the
Meadow Mice in Pleasant Vallrv."
Utile did Mr. Crow know that
Fatty Coon wa already planning to
visit the cornfield as soon as it grew
dark.
Nor did Master Meadow Mou-e

This beautiful closed car is the most attractive
value ever offered by Hudson.
We are now showing it for the first time. Come
see it. An examination of the Hudsdn Coich
will pay you well.
The Coach will cost you less even than the open
model of any car to which you compare Hudson
in quality, performance and reliability.
And see how fully it meets your closed car re
quirements at a saving of perhaps $800 to $1500.
Think of a closed car on the famous' Super-Six
chassis, for $1795.
GUY L. SMITH
That is less than 6 percent above the cost of the
Hudson open models. It is a sensational achieve
ment in car manufacture.
You need no other assurance with respect to the
beauty, quality and smartness of the Coach than
the fact that Hudson has always led in building
fine closed cars. The Coach is in keeping with
Hudson's best traditions.
It is certain to be the most popular type Hud
son ever built.' Be sure to sec it. It is just out.
Early deliveries will be possible for those who
place their orders at once.
