18 ACCUSED M
‘Spiritual Son” of Former Pre

cused by British Freed
(By The Associated Press)
CAIRO, Egypt, Dec. 15.—Nine
teen of the 42 persons arrested in
connection •with the wider of Sir
dar Stack have been liberated. The
public prosecutor considered the
evidence against them insufficient
and Egyptian law does not provide
for “preventive” detention.
Those released included three
members of the chamber of depu
ties. It is understood the ministry
of the interior intends to proceed
against one of them, Makrem Bey
Obeid, who has been a-.rr.'ed by
Zagloul Pasha, the former premier
as “my spiritual son.” The charge
will be that Makren made subver
sive speeches.

Mrs, ~Nick Longworth’s Child Will Be A Boy !
By NEA Service
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.—0 f
course it will be a boy! What e
more, it will be a wonder ful boy'
On these two points, those who
know Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Long
worth are agreed.
It is not because Alice Long
worth herself is a masculine type
that Washington cannot, imagine
her with any but a son She is
far from it. Rather it is because
there has always been a vague feel
ing that it is too bad Alice wibn
her genius of pcsona’ity and her
cleyerness, was not a man.
The reason for anticipating a
remarkable boy : s more obvious.
No one has ever expected a greht
deal of the Roosevelt tradition front
the sons of Theodore Roosevelt, but
with Alice it is different. She al
ways has been a ‘ real person,” as
her father was. Like h'r father she
always has possessed the faculty of
inflaming the public imagination to
a remarkable degree.
It is as unthinkable that a child
of hers should be commonplace as
that field daisies should grow from
the seed of a sunflower.
He Will Be a Great Leader
The day announcement was made
of the expected event in the Long
worth home, Washington seeresses
consulted the omens fo’ the future.
“It will be a boy,” each separate
prophecy declared.
“He will have phenomenal gift
of leadership—great seif confidence
—will power—love of adventure—
courts of Europe will honor him—■
h e will be rich—”
Washington believes the seeresses
because it had alread - ' made up its
mind along the same lines.
All the soothsayers agreed that
the child would be named Theodore
Lee Longworth, a natural assump
tion .since Theodore is the name of
Lis most distinguished forbear, and.
since Alic e Longworth has always
retained “Lee” in her own name.
It was the maiden name of her
mother, Alice Lee, of Boston, who
died at Alice’s birth.
But the prophecies were incau
tious in choosing a rational name
for such a child. Ali -c Longworth
always has done the, unexpected,
and even the coming of the child
proves adherence to the rule. If it
should occur to Alice to name her
son Xerxes Nebuchadnezzar, doubt
less she will do so, and think no

An interesting feature of the
predictions was the declaration
from two crystal gazers that the
Longworth son will have a baby
sister at some future date.
When that Longworth boy
grows old enough to read about
his mother’s younger days, it’s
doubtles going to be a problem
to discipline him .
What can you do with a child
who has this 'for a comeback:
“Yes, but mother picked up aspara
gus tips in her fingers with her
white kid gloves on one night at
a White House banquet just to
shock somebody!”
And it is not because of Alice
Roosevelt Longworth alone that the
laws of heredity promise the hew 1
baby will have a vivid and original
personality. >

tourists came to the gate of hi;,
elaborate Cincinnati estate arid
seeing a poorly dressed man, ap
parently a caretaker, asked to be
taken through the grounds.
■he old man was gracious ant
well informed. At the end of the
tour he 'picketed the quarter th, y

Claes Mtfrttftlzen Van Rosenvelt

1649, one year before th earliest
Vanderbilt. Theodore Roosevelt
belonged to the eighth generation
of descendants from this early an

the published dst of the family’s
genealogy;
The LdngworH+s also were in this
■ country in tse pre-Revolutionary
days, and" Nicholas Longworth’s
grs at-grandmother was Apphia
Vanderpeel, a member 4,f an old

It is altogether fitting then,
that the scion of suOh di'stihg'.rished
