Shot Dead.

"

London, August 3. Chicago's Evening Gangland might bó the title of the litest drama in the focal ander world.

The seene is a cheap dance hall. The floor is occupied by a score of young men and girls, strutting hap- pily to the strains of a mechanical piano, which is being fed with five rent pieces generously provided by Jack Zuta, gentleman killer,,' who slands, suave, pamuded and smiling. gallantly.

Suddenly five men enter, and slouch across the floor. One of them whips out an automatic pistol, there is crack and Zuta ainks to the floor.

The dancers covered, terrified, while, the quintette, stooping over the body, proceed to pour ʼn strenti of bullets into the victim's brain, the ear-splitting roar of rapid firing re-echoing through The

"palais."

The murderers then stroll off and vanish.

'How Zuta offended the laws of Gangland remains a mystery, but it is whispered that it was he' who killed the Chicago crime reporter, Lingle, whose death gave the gang- sters such a had Press.

DISAPPEARANCE OF THE HOME.

COMMUNITY LIFE.

The rapid industrial construction which is now proceeding in the Suviet Union has raised the problem of building, new elties, or creating new sections of old ones, order to house the workers and employees of the new

factories and electrical power plants. The building of a tractor factory and a number of lesser industrial establishments has led to a great expansion of the town of Stalingrad (formerly Tsaritsin), on the Lower Volga.

American Expedition's

Find.

The discovery, by the Central Asiatic Expedition of the Amerl- can Museum of Natural History, of the remains of prehistoric mastodons in a lake bed of the Gobi desert is regarded as excep tionally interesting,

Authorities compare its value with that of the expedition's dis- covery in the earlier deposits of the remains of dinosaurs from the egg to adult forms. "That dia-

Haphazard Growth.

The loveliest rose gardens in the province of Ontario yielded their choicest blossoms for the Rose Show held recently at the Royal York Hotel, Toronto, by the Rose Society of Ontario and the huge Concert Hall on the second floor of the hotel was filled with great masses of the fragrant blooms. Illustration shows bowl of single roses from which was chosen "Dainty Bess" the best single rose in the Show. It was exhibited by Aubrey D. Hewards, of Oakville, Ont.

they would be very expensive.

But at the same time there is an unmistakable tendency In the new Russian houses, and especially in the "Socialist cities," to abandon the idea of the individual worker's home, or even of the individual fat, in the Western sense, and to break down or greatly limit the old signi- ficance of the family by encourag ag its individual members to eat and talk and seek recreation and enter tainment in public dining-rooms and clubs, rather than in the home..

CLIFF FALL.

HOLIDAYMAKERS' CLOTHES BURIED UNDER DEBRIS.

Several visitors had to run for

their lives when hundreds of tona of cliff fell at Luccombe Chine, on the coast between Ventnor and Shanklin, Isle of Wight.

They had gone to the spot to bathe, and had left their clothing underneath the cliffs.

Mr. Kitchingham, of Maidstone, who was about to enter the water where his daughter was bathing, heard a noise and, looking up, noticed that the cliff was breaking away. He shouted a warning. grabbed his own and his daughter's clothing, and ran to the water's edge for safety.

Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Harris, Mins Wilshere, and Mr. J.Amos, all from Chingford, Essex, had been bathing and had returned to their clothing under the cliffs when they heard a rumbling and saw the cliff crack

They ran as fast as they could, leaving all their clothes buried under tons of debris. People lent them clothing to enable their re- turn to Ventnor.
