And why wont he join the League? Well, its because a cigarette once saved his life. And theres quite a story back of that, too, boys and girls. It happened back in 1924, when Pete was living in Brooklyn. He started out for a stroll one evening and ran into an old school pul.

Pete was in the heating business and doing pretty well at it. but the years hadn't treated h ia pal to well. He was a doctor, and he wasn't making much money at hit chosen profession. In fact, he waa behind in his rent down at the office, and was going to have to move out on the first of the week. Well 1ete bud a couple of trucks that he used In his business, and he offered to move bis friend's furniture. Ills pul accepted the offer grateFete went down to bis office to help him pack up. fully, and on Sntiird.-iy- , Landlord Was the Last Man They Wanted to See. Fete started out for the ollice that Saturday with bis pack of cigarettes In his pocket and little dreaming that one of those butts would suddenly turn into a life preserver before the evening was over. He got to the Docs ollice nnd they begun packing up the furniture. They had been working for about half an hour when there came a knock on the door. Pete etarted to open it, but the Doe held him back, whispering to him that it was probably the landlord, who lived in the building, and what with owing him a lot of rent money, he was the last man in the world Doc wanted to meet But somebody had to say something. asked who was there, and I was asked the friend of Doc's and that we were cleaning and I could hear him walking away down "To be discreet, says Fete, I same thing. I told him I was a house. All right,' he answered, the flight of stairs. Stick Em Up Wasnt Exactly Music to Petes Ears. It was a close call, but It looked as If they had gotten by with It Fete and Doc wore almost finished with the packing by then. There were just a few things left Hint the Doc wanted to take care of himself. Fete lit a cigarette and called it a day. He put on his coat, walked down the stairs, and waited for the Doc who said he would he with him shortly. It was cold outside, so Pete Just stood in the vestibule to keep warm. The vestibule was dark, he says, "and ail I could see was the lighted cigarette between my fingers. The Doc was a long time coming. I finished my cigarette, waited a while, and then lit another one. It was a good thing I d'd. The fact that I am alive today is probably due in a large measure to the fact that, at times, I will smoke one cigarette right on top of another. Tlie minutes dragged on, Pete was halfway through that second rette and was beginning to wonder why tlie Doc didn't come Ills back s. : Tlie wagon train which Gr.indpup Morgan had joined with Ills old Army press. Ins cases of type and other equipment, got safely through Hie Indian country until It came to tlie crossing of the Cimarron river. There a lug war party Jumped them. For more than three hours the emigrants kept the redskins at bay. Then a whisper of fear ran among tlie defenders . . . their bullets As their were almost exhausted tire slackened and died down, the savages began mussing for a final charge. Just ns ttie emigrants were getting ready to throw down their useless rides nnd draw their Bowie knives, Grandpap Morgan shouted: "Wait! Wait! . . . Quick, one of you fellers . . . help me get the type locked up in this form . . . its all ready to print when I get to Texas, but It won't get printed anyway If tlie Injuns kill me now. Here, men, fill your gnus!" As they rammed home the pieces of lead type, a ringing and the drumming of swift pony hoofs on tlie hard prairie told of tlie savage charge that was coming. "Now !" shouted Grandpap Morgan. A blast of fire from fifty rifles, and tlie racing ponies were jerked to a halt.

Landlord Is Suspicious of Skullduggery in Docs Office. Says Pete: I was startled at fiist. Then It came to me that Loc had sneaked down the stairs and was playing a joke on me. I said, Oh, stop your kidding. Doc. And with that something hard it hurt, I tell you jammed between by ribs, and again came the order: Put em up or Ill shoot. That time, Petes hands went up Just as fast as he could or what. raise them. He didnt know then that it was a stick-up- , But hed felt that gun in his ribs and that had been plenty. Now a hand pulled him out into the vestibule, and he saw, to his relief that it was a policeman. Then tlie story began to come out When the landlord had knocked at the ollice door, he had become suspicious at the evident reluctance of whoever was inside to let him in. He didnt believe Fete when he said he was a friend of Doc's and. In fact, sort of suspected that there was burglary afoot. Glowing Cigarette Butt Is Beacon to Copper. When he went down those stairs, he went right out looking for a policeman. He found the othcer on post, told him there were burglars In it back to tlie vestibule where his house, and the cop came Fete was waiting. And it was nothing but the cigarette that saved Petes life. At the first command, which Pete didnt obey, the cop tightened his finger on the trigger. He was ready to ihoot the minute the second command was out of his mouth. It was dark in the vestibule. The cop couldnt see a thing but that cigarette butt. When it went up in the air, It told him that his command had been obeyed and he held his fire. When the cop walked up to Docs office to check his story, he was white in the face and covered with perspiration. The realization that he had nearly killed an Innocent man made him weak in the knees for the better part of an hour. And as for Pete well tie didnt feel any too chipper about It either. He still doesnt to this day. g WNU Service. Hindus in Singapore Do Penance in Odd Manner The Feast of Thipusum, a Hindu ceremonial, takes place every year In Singapore, notes a writer In the Chicago Tribune. White clad Hindus go slowly down the street, stopping every few yards to voice a weird chant. In their midst Is one of their countrymen, cariy ing on a form of He is clad only In short white trousers, but wears a string of huge wooden beads with a fantastic charm at tlie end of it. Over the upper part of his bodv and his head is an ungainly wooden structure dangling with other charms and of dozens supporting partially spears. The business ends of these spears are thrust into his body from the waist up. He fairly radiates them Small silver needles are st Into his arms up to his should A peculiar contrivance holds tongue half way out of his moi while instruments somewhat hatpins are stuck in each side his face at the root of the tons Drawn behind him is a small c harnessed to his body by fishhc like arrangements thrust Into hips.
