Prosecution of Philndelphia Offl-
cers Promised by District Attorney
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 1,—
Charges of existence of a graft-
ridden police force receiving hun-
dreds of thousands of dollars
from a 110,000,000 bootleg ring
headed by Max "Boo Boo" Hoff,
millionaire fight manager, were
made today when District Attor-
ney Monaghan said that police-
men were receiving "from $50
up" a month for "keeping quiet."
It was said criminal action
would be taken against many
members of the . force. Evidence
against the police allegedly was
found when records were seized in
a raid of an accounting firm which
was said to have audited the ac-
counts of the bootleg syndicate.

A few days before the wedding Tad
finds Valerie with a moncled Eng-

She looked like a nun, devout

Sybil's dwelt compassionately on
her brother. ......
"Poor Taddy. Poor little devil.
... she's not good to you, I’ll
fix her!"
Valerie was making the re-
sponses. Clear and sweet her
voice rang thru the church. Sybil
had heard her at rehearsal the
evening before, instructing Tad.
"Speak up good and loud, dear.
Most men mumble so foolishly."
And now Tad was mumbling.
You could scarcely hear his voice
beyond the ehaneel rail.
The little ehurch was heavy
with roses and all the languorous,
passionate odor of crimson flow-
ers. Candles fliekered in tall
holders. And there was hint of
incense, and the close, sweet
smell of sanctity. A gold chalice
stood on the altar, and a, Bibis

"It’s like Vsl," thought Sybil,
"getting tied up so grandly and
fussily, with all this holiness.
She’s making it seem complicat-

ference. It comes untied these
days, however elaborately it’s
knotted."
