The following la taken from a re cent issue of The United Btatea British News, published at Chicago, aud the article bears a Montreal date line of August 16; Possibility the Plonne quintuplets are not the first set of quintuplets ever to survive was expressed here tonight following discovery In a house on St. Pantile street of an old scrapbook kept by the late Alfred Hirst, traveller, soldlor, policeman and collector of curiosities. A clipping from the 8au Francisco Chronicle of nearly sixty years ago, contained in the scrapbook, says quintuplets were born to the wife of a South Australian farmer named Schuler, a German settler, who, with many compatriots farmed a tract of land about thirty miles from the Town of Kapunda, South Australia. The clipping adds: "All of them are alive and are said to be very healthy." According to the clipping, Mrs. Schuler was a huge woman, "standiug I six feet four inches in her stockings and turning the balance at 244 pounds 7 ounces." She had already given birth to five children, Including two pairs of twins?"a fact deemed of so little importance In her remarkable effpi^a to increase the population of her adopted country that no exact dates of the occurrences were made," the report continues. "Her crowning effort, and one that wouid, bad she lived in America, at once given her the title of the champion child-producer, took place in October, 1878, When she gave birth to three boys and two girls. Every one appears to have been greatly astonished, for, though Mrs. Schuler already had made a reputation In this line, So great an event was altogether unexpected. ."The father of the five Is said to have sat down stupidly and mechanically gazing from one Infant to the other simply said: 4Mein Gott, meln Gott.' There were three boys and two girls, but no facts as to their weight and appearance Immediately after birth are given. All of them are alive and said to be very healthy." The report relates a sixpenny subscription was opened in the district for the infants, and it was suggested it would probably exceed $16,000. A full account of the case was transmitted to the Secretary for the Colonies in London at the time. A footnote concludes; "Michael Hagarty, the Australian Barnum, is said to have offered Mrs. Schuler $250 a week and all expenses of himself, wife aud five children to travel, hut the offer was declined." POLITENE88 FROM POLICE The police of St. Louis have been ordered to be polite or lose their lobs. Police Chief John. J. McCarthy baa ruled that < "Hey, you!" fa out, that wise-cracks have bad .their day, wd that "citizens am entitled-*? considerate and courteous treatment at Hi i times and under all circumstances." r, - It is a revealing commentary on American life that the issuance of Buch highly sensible orders should be accounted news. A police department ought to be courteous and polite. Policemen are public servants; our would suppose that a decent measure of politeness and courtesy could be taken for granted. But In most cities the reverse is true. * . The- average^ copper is honest enbugh and well-intentioned enough, : but the idea of treating taxpayers with a modicum of civility never seems to enter his head.

Since the passing of the tropical hurricane, that played euch havoc lu fr lorlda and eent ralu atoriue sweeplog across this section, a veritable pest of mosquitoes has afflicted lower and middle South Carolina. An aftermath of mosquitoes following trop- ' leal hurricanes has been the exper- ' lence of this section for decades. The older citisens have painful recollections of the myriads of mosquitoes that desoended upon Sumter linmed- i lately after the great hurricane of 1898 I and similar but lessei^cfefrtatious have occurred after hurricanes In succeed- 1 Ing years. Thia Is evldeuce that the 1 mosquito pest Is the result of the < storms that sweep the mosquitoes In I from the marshes of the coastal region ' and not to local conditions. The mos I qulto that we now have are almost 1 certainly not of local origin. Similar * conditions have Invariably followed a 1 tropical hurricane over a long peHod ? of years, while In the years of no great tropical disturbance there have i been few mosquitoes locally. < The Sumter health department with- t in the past few days has received t numerous complaints about the mos- c qultoes and many demands that the > nuisance be abated forthwith. The i Officers and employees of this depart- t raent are assldious in their efforts to I improve condftions and have made fre- r quent and regular inspections through- ^ out the spring and surfimer and i wherever mosquito breeding places I have been found steps have been tak- c en' to eliminate them. This work they r are continuing. They are repeating ; and urgently receiving the request t that house-holders co-operate with e them by making careful search of t their own premises for old tin cans c and other vessels that hold water and afford breeding places for mosquitoes; ^ I and they also suggest an inspection of 8 house gutters that hold water. Mos- ? quito breeding places In and around j the city have been largely eliminated j In recent years and conditions are jj fairly good for the control of the mos- t qulto pest, except for vagrant tin cans B and similar water holding vessels.-? $ Sumter Item. 8 General News Notes f ; - ' ' - fl The skeletonized NRA after four P months yet employs in Washington 11 and in the the Held, 2,760 persons, P who draw an annual salary of $7,028,- v 220. ^ - - u The Chicago Board of Trade band ^ won the American Legion band con- 0 test In St. Louis on Wednesday with ^ a rating of 90.8 out of a possible 100. * Thieves stole the new Are truck * from its house at Pelham, N.

HA# ETHIOPIA A CHANCE7 (Condensed From Current History) Nowhere on earth Is solar host so fierce as on the Ited Ren shore whence Mussolini's troops are launching their attack on the extraordinary rock fortress, which, as grim old Menellk told the powers In 1901, "has withstood all attacks as a Christian Island in a sea of pagans for these 1400 years." When transports landed the advance guard of Italy's expedition at Mussawa, this Italian seaport base In Eritrea was a primitive town sweltering In a heat that has been known to reach 130 degrees In the shade. Fresh water was extremely scarce, aud tankBra were sent 350 miles to Egypt tor It. Wells were, sunk in haste, bift fresh water along Italy's Red Sea belt !s nauseous stuff. As deuiaud for water grew desperate, a ration ef two piuts a man per day was allotted, with serious results In sickness and Usability. Three thousand troopers ind artisans were returned home in i fortnight. These Red Sea lands are no place for Caucasians. l)y day the strong3st and bravest of Fascist recruits ire apt to wilt and sicken. At night be soldiers and workmen sleep naked m straw mats in the narrow streets, vhlle their fellows unlpad troops and nunltlons by acetylene flares, until i blazing sunrise again stops all la>or. Apart from malaria' and the furtace winds that tear the trees to rags, vhite exiles here are prone to the pe;ultyr cafard, a virulent form of the )lues; and they come to loathe the eternal sand and stones, the dusty imosu scrub under blinding sunlight ind the stark termite anthills rising on or fifteen feet out of the endless iteppes that roll like dry sea- beds o the far horizons of Ethiopia's lofty itadel. It has been a tremendous task to louse and care for hundreds of thouands of Italians at Massawa, and still uore so at Mogadishu, in Somallland, taly's only other base for the attack, ifogadlshu Is 5,000 miles from the ' omeland, on the rock-bound coast of he Indian Ocean, where you may earch In vain for 1,200 miles In quest >f any fair haven, even for a tramp teamer. At this port, Italy's new rmada must roll at sea while lightrs plod to and fro with all things, rom sectioned houses, flled guns and etrol, to barbed wire and roadmak; ag engines. Thus Italy's only two orts are the poorest possible bases rhlch an immense twin army could se for simultaneous advance. Every- ! hlng must be brought from Europe, r from Asiatic and African ports, 'lmbera had to be brought for canonments to shelter whole divisions, or quarters for officers, doctors, nures, mechanics of the air forces, roadaakers and tank brigades.

When the deluge of the southwest monsoon ceases in late September, no time must be lost in these widely sunAered ports where virulent malarial fevers, heatstroke, dysentery and evm cholera can raise havoc among the most robust of trooops Just out from Europe. Disaffected lowland chiefs are to be bought over, then linked up with Italy's advance. Speed is ,the very essence of a campaign across the lowlands that lie between them and Ethiopia proper. This, Commanderin-Chief Rodolfo Oraziani admits, is ft military terrain to tax the genius of a Napoleon. Beyond the barfpn lowlands he will be confronted by *? high tableland, where snow peaks sweep up to 15,000 feet?range after range, with profound ravines and gorges, with brldgeless torrents and vast savannahs. In this wild region lurk guerrilla bands armed with modern rifles. Oraziani has fought primitive people before. For'18 years he matched his wits against The ruthless Libyans In tbeir own deserts, outwitting them at last by' paralysing their mounted raids splth bathed wire, which he laid by the hundred' miles, at a coat tor this stuff alone of over SO,#00,OOP lire. That conquest earned him the highest praise from Bmtllo de Bono, then his chief in Rome. Oraziani amide Bono are now in Joint control. * 4 s .gwiiUkpi '"# *- ft \ - y WHEN THE DARK ANGEL RIDE8 The motor vehicle in no reBpector of persons. Hardly u week passes without newspaper headlines telling of the sudden death of some statesman, industrial leader or other celebrity. A few recent names on the roster of those who died because of careless* ly or recklessly driven motor vehicles, comes readily to mind. Not long ago, Colonel T. E. Shaw, the famed "Lawrrence of Arabia," was killed wheu he fell from his motorcycle, which he was driving at 8p miles an hour. Only a week or two ago the wife of the Secretary of Interior perished when the car in which she was riding at high speed 'Skidded in loose gravel and overturned. Just before, the beautiful Queen Astrid of Belgium met her death?when her husband, driving the roadster in which she was riding, looked away from the highway at a road map, and ran headlong into a tree. Those tragedies become known in a million households, because of the prominence of the victims. But they are no worse, no more tragic, than the thousands of similar deaths which occur annually and make, instead of headlines, a mere item on an inside page of the newspapers. Recklessness, carelessness, incompetence? these are the scarlet trinity, which cause so much needless grief, so much unnecessary suffering, so great an economic waste. When one of them takes the wheel, death rides, too. The Dark Angel does not always strike? but there 1b a limit to how long he can be withheld. Care, caution,- competence?these constitute the trinity which can prevent automoible accidents, major and minor ones alike. The issue must be put squarely up to each driver?it is purely an Individual problem, and will always remain so. Traffic laws and enforcement can do nothing If the public will not cooperate. Will you?

Ramsey, In Baptist <-purler i On the occasion of Will Rogers' visit to Greenville some years ago to lecture iu the auditorium of the Rotary Club, we Invited him to take dinner lu the dining room with the student body. He camp and was with us long enough to make a talk, but us a dinner was to be given him at the hotel after his lecture he could not oat two meals. Severul very Interesting things are' remembered about his visit and his remarks. He urged the girls In his inimitable way to get a good education. He assured them that a college education possessed much practical value for them. He Bald they could get on in the world bettor with au education than without it; that he had no education himself and hence had to make his living by going around the country. He suggested that with a good education they could teach school, make money, and get a husband; that ihey could go to London and buy a lord for u husband, who were popular with American girls and could he bought cheap now. He told the girls that he was not much in his home over in California. He assured the young ladies that Hollywood was not a good place to go to get a husband, that wives didn't last long out there, that he was the only man in the place who had the same wife he started with. At the end of the informal talk, girls and women crowded around him in the dining room to shake his hand and iearn something of his personal life, especially about his family. He remarked that he never prepared a lecture, but Just got what he said out of the newspapers. A good mother asked Rogers if his boys were humorous and he replied that one little fellow seemed to have some sense of humor. Just anything concerning the personal appearance and ways of an outstanding public figure like Will Rogers is interesting, especially as reminiscenses. . v .? . In private conversation he used his professional stage method, waggish and defective colloquial English. Yet he was most deferential and cordial, faultlessly groomed and wearing admirably tailored suits with every detail of dress in perfect taste. . Now that he has reached "the end of the trail" in such a touching tragedy, it is not out of place to call attention to some of the elements of power and charm of America's fair- N orite. He was the great commoner, unspoiled by fame, weARl) ,and humor. He reviewed jic deeds of the great with the touches of the wag blended with the Insight Of a'philosopher. He 1 made merry over the daily delate of men in the limelight of the nation's affairs and yet,ever, a stranger to,the' wasp-like st|ng ,of the cynic. His genial soul ever lived in the house by the side of the road; and over-the whole nation every traveler counted Will Rogers his friend... ; I see that my friend*, J. Whltcombe Brougher, of Los Angeles, is to lay the last "sprig of acacia"" on his casket, a speaker who is so charmingly fluent and eloquent that someone has said that Dr. Brougher* Is the man with /the "self-cocking Jaw."
