By JOAN CRAWFORD Motion Pictura Actress IN'CE childhood, I have been afraid of darkness. It Is a fear which embodies nothing definite; but complete darkness terrifies me. Consequently, I always leave a' dim light burning In the dressing room. which opens from my bedroom," said Joan Crawford. 'A short time ago I bad an amazing experience. One night at .eleven o'clock this lamp flickered fitfully, almost going out completely and then burning again. 1 paid little attention to It, thinking something was wrong with the current When the same thing happened the next night, at the same hours, eleven and twelve, I called in an electrician to test the wiring at the house, and of the lamp. Nothing wrong was found. "On tha third nfgbt we stayed home just to watch the lights. We turned them on all over the house, at eleven o'clock, but that In the dressing room behaved In the same peculiar fashion. I did not want to go out to dance or sing. On the fourth night, I moved from my room to one of the guest rooms, but because of my silly fear of the dark, which I know psychologists would say I should have overcome in my childhood, I left a light burning in the hall outside my room. At eleven o'clock that light began to flicker and few minutes before twelve, it went out entirely. We were completely mystified. "The next morning 1 received a wire from New York telling me that one of my oldest friends, a woman who had been very kind to me in the early days of my career, had died at midnight the night before. The telegram stated that tour nights before my friend had been tak; en to the hospital for an emergency operation, that she had been operated on approximately at eleven o'clock, and that she had hovered between life and death during the period when I had trouble with my dressing room lamp. "sMy lights went back to their usual steady behavior., after that fourth night. I can't explain it Perhaps there was snmetlitag defective in the current--perhaps not?' Ivaud Orders Deal Blow a^t Use of Mail*. ^ Washington. -- Renewing its WWf c~:unst foreign lottery operators, the Tost Office department has recently Issued fraud orders against 450 residents of foreign countries, the longest Individual li^t ever Issued by the department. Notwithstanding the close watch -maintained at the border by customs officers and the vigilance of post office investigators, foreign lottery tickets find S'Vide sale in the United States. . . , The restflts of the current offensive Will be In proportion to the success of federal authorities In locating and identifying foreign distributors and in Intercepting lottery material. Existing federal statutes, which carry a blanket ban on the sale of lottery tickets through the .mails, are declared to be adequate! A more difficult Job--one that doep not fall within the jurisdiction of the Post Office department--Is tfa.e prevention of the peddling of lottery tickets in the country--prohibited by the lh^rs of niost states.* Annual Sales $10,000,000. Moneysent abroad by Americans, either for the purchase of legitimate sweepstake tickets or "phonies," totals to a vast sum. The best estimates, based partly on the prize money won by Americans, place the valne of ticket sales at $10,000,000 annually. In addition to the ^tickets sold for the Irish and other recognized sweepstakes and lotteries, thousands of counterfeit tickets have found an easy market in this country. Not only are counterfeits peddled in large quantities, but there have been many sales on fake sweepstakes. That Is, the agents sell tickets, comb their "sucker" list, and then fold up completely, purchasers of tickets never hearing from them again. The Post Office department receives a variety of Information that Is passed to its inspectors. Practically all the agents £.nd distributors of tickets who use the mails reside outside the United States. \Vhen a customs inspector, a local postmaster, or any other federal official sees a large batch of letters In a single mail shipment, from the same address, suspicion is around. (Lottery agents customarily use first-class mall, In their efforts to build up a customer list). • " • ^ • Promptly Confiscated, Though postal authorities have no authority to open first-clasS mall, they do have the authority, an suspicion, to stamp d letter: "Supposed to contain matter prohibited Importation." When a letter so stamped reaches the post office of destination, the American addressee Is required to open It In the presence of the local postmaster. If the Wter contains a lottery ticket it is promptly confiscated, and the Post Office department Issues forthwith a fraud order against the foreign agent. The order is a double-barreled weapon. The Post Office department will not deliver letters from the foreign person or address, nor will It accept mall matter originating In the United States for names that appear on a fraud order. Blame Henpecked Mates - if Women Go Hysterical Berlin.--"If women go hysterical their husbands are to blame In most cases, and especially the henpecked ones!" This Is the conclusion reached by Dr, G. Giehm, psychiatrist of a large sanitarium at Zepernlck in the north of Berlin, as a result of an Investigation of cases of hysterical women. Writing In the German Medical Weekly, Doctor Glehm says: "As a practical consequence of this discovery the husbands should be treated and cured rather thaa their wives, In the first place." Doctor Giehm found that the han* pecked husbands were very sensitive, Inactive, soft, over-careful, wavering men who covered up their weakness by pretending to be "kind and gentle" sympathizers with their wife's malady. This kind of husband constitutes the greatest danger for the hysterical patients, he believes, i i _ NO ONK ELSE LEFf "What position did yon hold fa fvbt last situation?" the manager asked tlM small applicant for the post.

"Why do you term that an Indirect tax?" "Because the dog doesn't pay It" With claim cases in his court out of the way, Judge Chas. T. Allen has started a drive to compel the closing of all estates that are more than one year old, says the Harvard Herald. Some good legal reason from preventing this procedure will be the only thing considered, the county court jurist announces. Work on the disposing of estates extending beyond the one year period has already begun, Judge Allen has asked R. D. Woods, county clerk,. to add to his clerical force Mrs. Camilla W. Johnson, a former stenographic and court reporter of the county court, to assist in the wo^k incident to preparing the necessary record ol pending estates undisposed of. : The county clerk and former court reporter are familiar with the work and they are now busily engaged in going through files of estates and indexing those which have run beyond the one year period. A printed form designed for the specific purpose in mind is being used in recording the name of the estate, the date it was opened, the name of the administrator or executor, inventory,. if filed; real estate, if any; proof of heirship, if made; claim day,, if established; names of the bondsmen and any other important data. Court to Have Full Pic,ture From the foregoing information, the court will have, before him the whole picture or situation in eacn case.* No estate will be allowed to close unless a proper inventory of real estate (if any is involved) is filed and proof of heirship made. The latter two things are very important to prevent a defective title to the real estate, Judge Allen states. As soon as this data is collected and compiled by the former court reporter, notices will be sent to the proper parties in each case, requesting that the estate be closed within specified date. Failure to respond in any instance will be followed ty summons served by the sheriff commanding the delinquent party to appear in court on a day specified to show cause why he has - not complied with the court's request. Thereafter if the party does n<pt appear, an attachment in the nature of a warrant will be" issued to the sheriff commanding the latter to bring the person before the court in order to be dealt with as the court may determine. * The latter procedure is the method outlined, the closing of Estates of minors and * incompetents will be investigated carefully and such action taken as the circumstances may require in any case, Judgo Allen announces. No estate, will be closed while thlpfje remains in it undisposed claims. Claim Case Hearings Near End Judge Allen has. achieved real success in cleaning up of claim cases. During the many weeks that this work has been under way with a day given to the proceeding from time to time the court records have disclosed that some of the claims extended back 17 years, or to 1918. The court is much pleased over the achievement in cleaning up the pending claim cases. Noticeable activity was apparent in the county court last Monday, Sept. 23. In addition to a number of probate matters, Judge Allen resumed the call of the balance of the claim tiocekt, which he has reduced from ,500 cases since inaugurating the clean up drive last spring. Judge Allen expects to dispose of the balance of the claim dockets on Monday, September 30.

THE CHILDREN. MRS. ELIZABETH BACON DIES AT HOSPITAL Mrs, Elizabeth Bacon, 90 years old, died, at St, Therese's hospital, Waukegan, at 11 o'clock Saturday night, following a short illness. Mrs. Bacon is numbered among the pioneers of this vicinity, having lived .on her farm near Volo for the past sixty-seven years, where she has watched the country grow in population and advancement.

Bacon came to this locality where they settled on the farm where they have since resided. Mr. Bacon died Oct 24, 1925, only lacking four weeks of being 94 years old at his death.

The Gadsden Purchase The Gaudalupe Hidalgo treaty of 1848 concluded the jfexienn war. Serious disagreement as to the exact extent of the newly gained region In what Is now southern Arizona and southwest New Mexico developed. This was cleared up in 1853 by the Gadsden Purchase of the area In dispute. The settlement pf the boundary dispute was considered in this country to be of greater moment than the acquisition 6t the land, which was thought to be of little or no v^lue for cultivation, and it was in the minds of enterprising Americans that through this region the Southern Pacific railroad, already projected, might find an 'advantageous route, as in fact It did. ^taming Reno, N*r, 6eno, Nev., Is named after Qen.
