CUTS MUSTACHE
Hints To New York Inter-
viewer That Mrs. Huxley
Is Very Easily Tickled.
Aldous Huxley, lank parent of .1
sophisticated school of writing. is
in New York with the bclict that
the British strike points toward the
ultimate unionization of all working
classes—including novelists and art-
ists. of course. However. he was
without his mustache. which was
never missing from any of his press
photos from England.
Collapsed upon a dlvan in the
parlor .of his publisher. George II.
Dornn, at 23 East Thirty-eighth
street. Mr. Huxley explained both—
his views on.unionization and his
missing mustache. He spoke with
charm. and concluded the scance
by uutographinl; for his interview-
ers copies of his newest novel. “Two
or Three Graces." a collection of
short tales just. off the presses.
He is a singular looking person.
Ho has the appearance of being
tossed togcther and about despite
his longitudinality. Interviewers met
him wearing patent leather oxfords,
white socks. check trousers. a brown
coat and vest. a. yawning collar and
an unusual tie strangled by a gold
ring over the collar button.
To begin With the subject of
“arm importance to Mr. Huxley but
manhood, he explained his depart-
ed upper lip hirsute as follows:
“Why did I remove it? To satisfy
the. femininity of my wife. There's
no more to be said on the matter.
I did it for my wife."
"But." protested the father of a
promising mustache “I thought all
women liked mustaches. They're all
the ragahero in America."
"I know." Mr. Huxley retorted.
“but I dare say, racially speaking.
some women are more ticklish than
others."

$3,750 REWARD
FOR AN ARREST
But It Was Important One.
-—It Lead To Hanging of
Gerald Chapman.
One man is $3.750 richer as a rc-
suit of the nrrbst of Gerald Chap-
man. later hung by this state for
murder. He is Fred W. Puckett, for.
rncr captain of the Muneie, Ind. po~
lice. who was awarded the state's rc-
ward of $3,000 for tho capture of
Gerald Chapman in Muncie January
18. 1925. in a. decision by Judge. Mar—
vin of the superior court in Hartford.
The judge denied the claim or'
Chief of Police W'illiom C. Hart. of
New Britain. on the ground that it
was outside of the intention of for-
mer Governor Charles A. Templeton.
who offered it. that the reward
should be shared by :1 police officer
who had acquired certain informa-
tion but. had done nothing further
to make it effectlvc.
The reward of 5500 offered by the
’Ncw :ritain Herald" will be divided
between Captain Puckett and Chief
Hart. each receiving $250 the news-
paper announced.
Other Reward
In addition to the rewards men-
tioned which Puckett. will receive.
he has already received $500 offer-
ed by the federal government for
the capture of the bandit. who was
then a fugitive from Atlanta peni—
tentiary where he had been Err-tins:
a sentence of twenty-five years for
a. {\‘ew York mall robbery.
In his decision Judge Marvin ob-
served that Captain Puckett. now a
private detective, had been on tho
trail of Chapman for a bank robbery
in Middletown, 0.. in May 1324. and
that later acting on information fur-
nished by Detective Edward J.
Hickey of the state's attorney's of-
fice. he had watched the house of
Dr. R. If. Splckorman in bluncle.
It was when Chapman was leaving
the doctor’s house that Puckett
captured him. braving the bandit‘s
revolver flrc.
Hart Couldn‘t Take Reward.
Chief Hart. on the other hand. the
court found, had obtained his infor-
mation that Chapman had killed
Skelly from “alter E. Shean Chap-
man's accomplice now in state pri-
son. two days before the reward was
offered.
The Judge continued in part:—
"Chief Hart and his subordinates
of the New Britain police force were
public officers. charged with the
very duty of discovering and appro-
hendlng the person who
this crime of killing one of their
number. By the rulesand restriction-
of the police department of the city
of New Britain. none of the officers
ll permitted to received any reward.
and any reward which is given to
them must be turned over to the.
pension fund of the department. un-
less the board 'of pollen edmmisslon-
ers gtherwtse specifically directs.
