part in the llargis-Cockrell feud

lation of parole privileges alter he

reign of terror. The feud did not
die until 1HI2 >"hen Jim Margis was
killed by his own son and Ed Calla-
han. his ally, was shot from am-
bush.
White war convicted of the mur-
der in 1903 of J. It. Mtrcnnl, all

posing Hargis. Marcum was stand-
ing oil the courthouse steps when
White passed by and remarked to
a friend, "There's a bad man and
1 am afraid of him."
A few seconds later two shots
were, fired and Marcum fell to the
ground mortally wounded. White
was arrested for the murder and
given a life sentence hut was pa-
roled in l!)tT.

DESPERADO CITIES ALONG
(Oontmuea rrora Page 1)
Long known for their payroll rob-
beries in the Pittsburgh coal area,
the Jawarski gang staged its most
daring crime a little more than a
year agu b> dynamiting a. big steel-
covered money wagon of the Pitts-
burgh Terminal Coal Co., near Clo-
ve 1 dale, Pa. That job yielded them
$104,000 in cold <;i:li.
Hours in advance tin macadam
road along which the pay ear was
to pass was mined. As it rumbled
over the spot, there was a mighty
roar. A half dozen guards and driv
er; worn blown high into the air.
The big money wagon was split
open like a sardine can.
From the adjacent underbrush
Jawarski and It is gang appeared.
Money from the shattered car lit
tered the road. They scooped tip 'In
$104,000 and fled.
Even more daring and brutal had
been the holdup of another pay far
near Mt. Lebanon. Pa., at Christ-
mas, 1922, in which $23,000 was
stolen. Two masked figures armed
with deadly-looking automatic ri-
fles halted this car at a lonely spot.
Font more ot the gang quickly ap-
peared and surrounded the machine.
Hands high in the air,, the pay-
master and his guards dismounted
into the roadway. One of the guards
was ordered to lie on his stomach.
He questioned tin command and ;i
feun barked twice. As he lay squirm-
ir death agony in tin glistening
snow, another bandit walked over
placed a shotgun against the pros-
tral< form and pulled the trigger.
"That'll finish you." he muttered.
"And after this you'll learn to do
as you an told."
Jawarski was also charged with
the minder of Isaiah Gump, another
guard, during the holdup of another
]ia> cat near Mollenatter. Pa., short-
Ij before Christmas, 1025. This
job netted $4 8,000.
Other desperate robberies and
brutal murders were also laid to
Jawarski and his gang.
Captured in Detroit a short time
after the $104,000 robbery, he was \
tried and sentenced to death at
Pittsburgh.
Then came the jail break made
possible by/wo .45 caliber automat-1
ies, slipped to him through Ihe bnrsj
by his brother, Sam Jawarski.
The fugitives' trail was lost un-
til Jawarski was shot down in Cleve-
land. One of his gang—Stanley
Bodziakowski, dapper bandit who
posed as a young millionaire was
captured after a world-wide chase.
Detectives trailed hint to Ecuador
in South America, to Monte Carlo,
where he lost $t!000 in two nights,
through his native Poland and l'in-
ally to Montreal. There Bodziakow-
ski was captured.

One cciraed;pii&e who has no de-
3lre to bo a tragedienne Iti blonde,
he-dimpled Laura La Plame, wtiQfio
newest Universal comedy, "Home
James," will open at the Rig Thea-
ter tonight.
It is one of the traditions of the
theater that the comedy group want
10 do tragedy and vice versa. Each
no doubt would like 10 show his ver-
satility at the expense of ' showing
I up" the others.
But Miss La PI,ante i:, satisfied
with her comedy roles. She believes
I it is much more difficult to bo a
I good comedienne than to be a good
| tragedienne
' "The acting in comedy must be j
! more subtle than in tragedy," said'
! Miss La Plante. "One can actually |
'overact in tragedy without the audi-]
! ence noticing it. but try it in comedy
land see what happen.. The audience
' will refuse to loael -,ill(l nothing
j is more pitiable than a player who
| is trying to be funny and isn't.
I "The tragic feeling is caused by
j almost, the same things to most peo-
| pie, so it is not so difficult to arouse
' this emotion in the audience. Hut
I everyone laughs, at something else.
Some things will bo funny to the
isophisticated people, some to the sitn-
j pie sort: some to the intelligent and
I some to 111.' ignorant To make an
i average audience laugh the comedy
| player must hit upon something that
I will be funny to everyone.
"A good comedienne should take
1 herself seriously. She should play j
[the role very seriously and try not!
| to think of people laughing later at :
I her image on the screen. My great-,
.-si ambition is to be tin* greatest j
comedienne of all time.''
In "Home James," Miss La Plant.-
portrays her funniest role in motion |
pictures. William Boaudiue directed
this hit, which is adapted Irom the j
stage play of Gladys Johnson.
Included in lite cast are Charles
Delvaney, Aileen Manning, Joan!
I Standing, George Pearce, Arthur
j Hoyt and Sidney Bracy.
