Mystery Man Hunted For Asheville Murder Asheville, July 17.?A "mystery man" was hunted today by police Investigating the brutal murder of blonde Helen Clevenger, 19-year-old New York University honor student. The man, of whom officers had only a scant description, was seen dashing hatlesH from u fashionable hotel into an after midnight thunderstorm?a few minutes, supposedly, after Miss Clevenger was slain in her room on the third floor. This incident, together with the lethal bullet, which Governor George F. Hater, Jr., said was fired from un unusual type of gun, probably of a foreign make, was admittedly all that officers had to go on. Tho police fixed the time of the slaying at about 1 ?. m., yesterday, but the body was not discovered until 8:30 a. m., when the girl's uncle, Prof. W. L. Clevenger, of North Carolina State college, went to her room from his own, Just around the corridor. In green pajamas, she was lying on her back, her feet crumpled under her?a position which officers said Indicated she was shot while on her knees, pleading for her life. The bullet ranged downward, through the left part of her chest, and left powder burns. The girl's face had been mutilated with a sharp instrument. Coroner Ila'ler Bald an attompt had been made to criminally assault her. Neither the gun, nor the mutilating instrument, which Haier said could have been a pair of scissors, was found. The calibre of the bullet. Baler said, was slightly less than that of a .32. Durham Jones, negro bellboy, said he saw a man run from the mezzanine floor about I a. m., while he was in the darkened Horvice room in the lobby drinking a lemonade: He said the fleeing man "vaulted the porch banister to the street and disappeared in the storm. The bellboy could give only a scant description of the man. He said he appeared to weigh about 160 pounds, and was about f> feet. 8 inches. He could not remember how the man was dressed but was certain he wore no j hat and thnt hiR hair was disheveled. Robert Simpson, the elevator operator,'said he took no one to the third I floor near the time of the murder, and did not bring anyone down. Several guests told of hearing a woman's Bcream at about one o'clock. E. B. Pittman, an employe of tho state banking department, had the - room opposite Miss Clevenger and told investigators he stepped into the hall when he heard the shriek. He said he saw a man standlug with his back to the door of the girl's room, which was partly open. Pittman said he and the Btranger exchanged a few remarks about the woman's scream and that he then stepped back in his room, attaching no particular significance to the Incident. Officers theorized the girl had left her door open because of the unseasonably hot weather. Miss Clevenger came here a few days ago with her uncle on a vacation ' trip. In her room were found a freshly-J written letter to her parents, Mr. and ' Mrs J. F. Clevenger, of Great Kills, j Stat?-n Island, N. Y., and entries in' her diary covering the preceding day's activities," I _ \ /hereFJT) SuM WAY / Lto get rid I OF ROACHES/ ?

Mob Threatens Charleston Jail Charleston, July 21.?Two negro prisoners accused of slaying a police detective were whisked to safety out of Charleston by Sheriff J. M. Poulnot early today after a mob of 500 persons milled about the county Jail. Sheriff Poulnot said the crowd wjjich gathered at the Jail, shouting for the negroes, numbered 500 at its peak. The crowd gathered shortly after midnight, and had dwindled to a mere handful by 2 a. m. A few minutes afterward the sheriff and his deputies started for the state penitentiary in Columbia with the prisoner. Policemen and deputies armed with rifles, tear gas, clubs and riot guns were stationed at the entrance of the jail. Patrolmen were kept on their heats overtime so fresh men could reinforce the Jail guard. Since Charleston National Guard companies are In Florida at their summer encampment, Sheriff Poulnot asked for a detail of marines from the Navy Yard to protect the prisoners. He was told.. however, an order from the governor would be necessary for the Marines to be called out. The sheriff did not telephone the governor, as the crowd began to dwindle a few minutes later. ' The negro prisoners dre Benjamin J. Rivers and Isaac Brown, held In connection with the slaying of Police Detective Puree A. Wansley a few weeks ago. Detective Chief John J. Healey said Rivers confessed the killing yesterday. Simple Treatment Banishes Freckles, Tan And Blemishes Here's a cream that has remarkable skin-clarifying qualities.

UDBERGHS GIVEN CORDIAL WELCOME IN GERMANY The Charles A. Lindberghs, in informal mood, sped over Europe today to a heel-clicking Nazi welcome at Staaken airport and prospects of an early meeting with Relchsfuerh.er Adolf Hitler. Neither Der Fuhrer nor his air minister, General Hermann Wilhelm Goerlng, was at the airport when the famous flyer and his attractive wife stepped from their grey-winged monoplane. Both were otherwise occupied in southern Germany, but it was learned from authorltive sources they would see Col. Lindbergh before he leaves Germany. In gay contrast to the precise Gerc man officers who greeted them, the American was hatless today, with a rumpled suit and unruly tie. His wife wore a smart suit. Fifteen great bombing planes, drawn up at the edge of the flfctd, gave the welcome a martial tinge. " The party left for Berlin proper in two cars, Lindbergh with Col. Kastner and Major Turman Smith, the United States military attache, and Mrs. Lindbergh with Mrs. Smith. Major and Mrs. Smith will be host to the Lindberghs during their visit, and the Colonel will see Germany's aerial development at first hand as the guest of the air ministry.

Returning home one evening, he found his wife in her room with a small bundle In a pink blanket at her side. "It is a boy," his wife said. ? Jose, almost beside himself with joy, rushed out for a priest who waf? to administer first rites. When he returned his sobbing wife told him the baby was dead. Jose was overcome with grief but built a small coftn and his wife put the little form into |t without letting her husband see the face, and It was buried. Then there were rumors In the community which would not down until the little grave was opened. In the cofTln was found a rag doll. The attempted (deception of Evangellna Rltta only made matters worse for both of them. Two persons were killed?one a rider and the other a spectator?in a 200-mile motorcycle race at Swanssj* A freight train hit a motorized work car on a bridge near Belpre.
