CHICAGO, Jan. 27.—That newspaper publishers who have been forced by the price of news print paper to charge two cents for papers cannot hope to go back to the one-cent rate, was a declaration which a hundred or more newspaper publishers took home with them today after a conference here yes- terday with several manufacturers of print paper. The statement was made by Alexan ler B. Smith, managing di- rector of the Abitibi Paper Co. of Iro- quois Falls, Canada. The publishers voted to appoint a committee to meet immediately after the delivery of the report on the print paper situation next week by the Fed- eral Trades Commission, to see if knowl- edge gained from the report does not point out a way to an adjustment of the problem of the high prices. —— Doms. * . 1 * 7 Feeling Achy Since That Cold?

Take a look, Mate,“ I called out, and stepped away from the sights of the periscope. “Can you see the gun mounted forward of the bridge? „es,“ he replied, excitedly. Coer- tainly I can see it, and quite a large piece it is, too.“ “Now take a look at her stern, right by the second mast. What do you no- tice there?“ “Thousand devils! at least a 10-centimeter gun. transport, sure!” “Drop the periscope! manded. Torpedo tube ready.“ reported the torpedo master, through the tube from the forward torpedo compartment. By now I had the periscope submerged so that we were completely below the surface and it would be impossible to discover us from the steamer, even after the most careful searching of the hori- zon. U “Advance on the enemy! was our de- termination. Oh, what a glorious sensation is a U- boat attack! What a great understand- ing and co-operation between a U-boat and its crew—between dead matter and living things!» What a merger into a single being, composed of hundreds of materials, and of the nerves and spirits of an entire crew. “Just as if the whole boat is as one being.“ was the thought that passed through my mind, when I, with peri- scope down, went at my antagonist, just like a great crouching cat with her back bowed and her hair on end ready to spring. The eye is the periscope, the brain the conning tower, the heart the Centrale,“ the legs the engines, and the teeth and claws the torpedoes. Another cannon— It's a Port 10!“ I com- No flag could be seen. „This is suspicious, I reasoned with myself. I called down the Centrale all my observations through the periscope at regular intervals, snapping them out in the same sharp, brief style that — narrative of a hunting voyage by a \ a quick turn was narrated, also the in instalments in The Post-Dispatch that ahead of us was a large steamer ship across our course which belonged headlines to the listening public. My mouth to mouth until all hands knew e. Each new announcement from the attention among the crew, listening words went down to the ‘‘Centrale:’’ that which had to come was disgusting, and I wish to make the story about it short. Only a few degrees were lacking for the desired angle, and soon the steam- er would get into the correct focus. it was passing us at the right distance—a few hundred meters. “Torpedo ready!" I called down. It was the longed-for command. Ev- eryone on board held his breath. Now the steamer’s bow cut the line in the periscope, now the deck, the bridge, the foremast, the funnel. Let go!” A light trembling shook the boat— the torpedo was on its way. Woe, when it was let loose! There it was speeding, the murderous projectile, in a straight line with an in- sane speed right at its prey. I could ac- curately follow its path by the light wake it left in the water.

My back became so weak and painful that I had to give u many times and rest and couldn’t bend at my work. I seemed to have no strength left and my work was a drag.

The pains in the small of my back were severe and I had og in my bladder. Nights a dull aching in my back often prevented me from going to sleep. Doan’s Kidney Pills bene- fited me wonderfully. My back has been a hundred per cent bet- ter and stronger since and all the misery has been relieved.” R. E. Little, Upholsterer and Prop. of Storage Estb., 419 W. Main St., Kirkwood, says: ‘‘I had a severe spell of trouble with my back, due to a wrench or strain. From that time on I was bothered: by weakness and pains across my loins and kidneys. If I stooped while at work, I had a burning sensation over my kid- neys, which made it hard to straighten again. Doan's Kidney Pills helped me in every way. They straightened my kidneys, re- lieved the pains and aches and made me feel better generally.’’ | through me-a long line of compart- e Box, Foster-Milburn Co,, Buffalo, N V., Mfrs. |p a was that our periscope should not be observed, so that the steamer would not change her course at the last moment and escape us. Very cautiously I stick just the tip of the periscope above the surface at intervals of a few minutes, take the position of the steamer in a second, and, like a flash, pull it down again. x This second was sufficient for me to see what I, wanted to see. The steamer was to starboard and was heading at a good speed across our bows. To judge from the foaming waves which were thrown off from the bows I calculated that her speed must be about sixteen knots. The hunter knows how important it is to have a knowledge of speed at which his prey is moving. He can calculate the speed closer when it is a wounded hare than when it is one which in flight at high speed rushes past. Carefully Calculated Speed. It was only necessary for me, there- fore, to calculate the speed of the ship, for which a sailor has an experienced eye. I then plotted the exact angle we needed. T measured this by a’ scale which had been placed above the sights of the periscope. Now I only had to let the steamer come along until it had reached the zero point on the periscope and fire the torpedo which then must strike its mark. You see, it’s very simple. I estimate the speed of the boat, aim with the periscope and fire at the right moment. He who wishes to know about this or anything else in this connection should join the navy, or if he is not able to do so, send us his son or brother or nephew. On the occasion in question every- thing went as calculated. The steamer could not see our cautious and hardly shown periscope and continued uncon- cerned on its course. The diving rud- der in the contrale“ worked fine, and greatly facilitated by unobserved ap- proach. I could clearly distinguish the various objects on board, and saw the giant steamer at a very short distance— how the captain was walking back and forth on the bridge with a short pipe in his mouth, how the crew were scrub- bing the forward deck. I saw with amazement—a shiver went ments of wood spread over the entire deck, out of which were sticking black and brown horse heads and necks. Oh, Great Scott; Horses! What a pity! Splendid animals! What has that to do with it?“ I con- tinually thought. War is war. And every horse less on the western front is to lessen England’s defense. I have to they cut loose down there for joy. They were carried away by ecstasy, which welled out of their hearts—a joyous storm that ran through our entire at and up to me. And over there? Landlubber, steel thy heart! A terrible drama was being enacted on the hard-hit sinking ship. She listed and sank toward us. From the tower I could observe all the decks. From all the hatches hu- man beings forced their way out, fight- ing. despairingly and terrified. Russian firemen, officers, sailors, soldiers, hos- tlers, the kitchen crew, all were run- ning and cating for the boats. Panic stricken, they thronged about one an- othér down the stairways, fighting for the lifeboats, and among all were the rearing, plunging and kicking horses. The boats on the starboard deck could not be launched, as they could not be swung clear because of the list of the careening steamer. All, therefore, thronged to the boats on the port side, which in the haste and anguish were lowered, some half empty, others over- crowded. Those who were left aboard were wringing their hands in despair. They ran from bow to stern and back again in their terror, and then finally threw themselves into the sea in the attempt to swim to the boats. 0 Doomed Ship’s Bellers Burst. Then another explosion resounded, after which a hissing white wave of steam streamed out of all the ports. The hot steam set the horses crazy and they were beside themselves with terror. 1 could still see a spléndid dapple gray horse with a long tall make a great leap over the ship's side and land in a life- boat, already overcrowded. But after that I could not endure this terrible spectacie any longer. Pulling down the periscope we submerged into the deep. When, after some time, I again came to the surface there was nothing more to be seen of the great, proud steamer. Among the wreckage and bodies of the horses, three boats were floating and occasionally fished out a man still swim- | ming in the sea. Now I came up on the surface in order to assist the vic- tims of the wrecked ship. “a When our boat’s mighty, whalelike ‘hull suddenly arose out of the water right in the midst, a panic seized them again and quickly they Stasped their oars in order to flee. Not until K waved from the tower to them, with my hand- kerchief and cap did they rest on their oars and come over to us. The state in which some. of them were was ex- ceedingly pitiful.

The fixed provisions which each boat was required to carry were not sufficient when the boat’s crew was doubled and trebled. ] While I was conferring with our mess officer as to what we could dispense with of our own provisions, we noticed to the north and west clouds of smoke, which, to judge from the signs, were coming towards us quickly. _ Immedi- ately a thought flashed through my head. Nov they comes the whole swarm: Already the typical mas ish destroyers and trawle ose above the horizon. Therefore we Md not have a minute to lose in order to escape these most dangerous enemies. I made my decision quickly and called to the Cap- tain of the sunken steamer that he could let one of the oncoming ships pick them, as I could not spare the time, but had to go northeast.“ Then I submerged right in front of the boats full of survivors. They saw me head north and I steered in that direction for a time. Then I pulled down the periscope, and, without being noticed. changed my course to the south. Encirclied by Enemy Ships. When, after a considerable time, again cautiously looking around, I perceived to my amazement that an entire scout squadron in a wide circle was heading toward us from ‘the south also. Frorh three sides the enemy spurred his blood- -hounds on us, and I thought to myself it would not take long before by extend- ing their wings they would encircle us completely and the great chage would ‘begin. The thought was not cheerful, particularly as the depths in this part of the ocean were not sufficient so that ‘we could, by submerging deeply, guard ourselves against the dangers of grap- pling. hooks, nets and mines. „The wildcat has become a hare,’ I thought to myself, and at the same time I decided what to 00. We had to do as the old hare. First, ‘we would with eyes open cautiously jump forth, use alt the possible covers, and search for the spot where the gun- ners were fewest, and then with eyes shut and at the highest possible speed break through the widest gap. Consequently we began ‘to travel to- ‘ward the east, where the atmosphere was still clear. Occasionallx I stuck up my periscope and perceived | how the surrounding circle was drawn tighter ‘and tighter. Now, arter I had made up my mind, IL became completely calm and: carefully considered all the conditions The swarm of de- stroyers moved toward the center as in a regular chase, as soon as the circle was complete. Between every couple of ‘hunters—I mean trawlers—there were nets stretched across to catch a little submarine and behind these were dragged mines. By extending one of the wings in the north it made a gap toward the east, and, besides, I saw that one of the torpedo boats between two groups of the searching party had left for the ship- wrecked survivors. At this point, con- sequently, was our best chance to es- cape. I laid my course between the two searching parties, of course with the periscope during the whole time nearly invisible. Slowly the ranks of the hunting hounds approached, smoking copiously are looking for you; now 9 f the Brit- it may be holding you back in the 1 the bow compartment comes the report: The beating of nn. is discern- ible to port! Shortly thereafter I can hear them even from the conning tower—a soft, slow, swelling and sort of grinding sound. This was not the sound of the propellers of a destroyer. Such would bang faster, clearer and more powerful. This was the heavily dragging trawlers’ slow-beating propellers. Strainingly I listened to starboard— nothing can „be heard. That's a good sign because now I could hope that in reality I had reached the gap and that the sounds of the propellers which we heard to port emanated from the trawler on the left side of the gap. I Was just about to let out a joyous hur- rah when I heard a new sound whieh approached with a clear, sharp banging. It was the torpedo-boat—the beast. Was the darn rascal going to come back at the crucial moment? It required only a few seconds for the torpedo boat to pass over us, but those seemed all hours. At every blinking of the eye I imagined I heard something explode, turn over again, or drag along- side my boat. But fortune was ours. The sharp, grinding sound of the swift torpedo boat propellers became fainter and fainter and at last ceased entirely. Unconsciously I straightened up a lit- tle in the tower, whistled a few notes from Dockan,“ and tap, as if nothing nad happened, with the knuckle of my forefinger on the glass of the manome- ter. What did the manometer register? —nothing whatsoever had happened. Ev- erything was in the best condition. The depth coincided. The diving rudder was lying in normal.

The whole swarm of British de- stroyers and trawlers had moved toward the southwest and were eagerly search- ing in a. long line. As we were proceed- ing in an opposite direction, we quickly left them. After about five more min- utes, I would dare to come to the sur- face. To the north the way was clear. Soon I was sitting in the best of spirits up in the conning tower greedily inhal- ing with. both lungs the fine, refreshing sea air, and mixed it with the long puffs of. the cigarette.

HELPER. om A Free Bridge Suggestion. of the — bam he Waiter —— ge Gov. Gardner s St. Louis appointments are ‘in keeping, on the whole, with his pledges, and give assurance of efficient and honest administration “1 of the St. Louis boards. James E. Smith, Ben Brinkman and Philip B. Fouke, appointed to the Police Board, are men of excellent character and ability. All of them are successful business men. Mr. Smith, who is slated for the head of the board, has been prominectly identified with public activities and organizations in promoting the city’s welfare. A board com- posed of men of this kind should bring the Police department to a high state of efficiency. Edward S. Lewis, who is named for Excise Com- missioner, has had a long and honorable career in business. He was one of the active suppcrters of the Folk reform movement. It is a fair expec- tation that he will enforce the excise law and maintain reasonable and effective regulation of saloons within the law. | Xenophon Wilfley, Charles J. Lammert and Vin- cent Dempsey, the three new members of the Board of Election Commissioners, offer a fair promise of a satisfactory administration of the board. The special merit of the appointments is the freedom of the appointees from menacing politi- cal affiliations or connection with machine par- tisanship, which would interfere with efficient public service. There are no political haeks among them nor any man who has been identified with partisan muck. Mr. Brinkman declines the appointment, but if he persists in his refusal to serve, we assume the Governor will find another of the same stand- ard of character and ability. It is hoped that suitable citizens who are called upon to serve the public in support of.a good administration will not evade the call. Efficient public service is impossi- ble unless honest and efficient men consent to take office. Gov. Gardner’s statement issued with the an- nouncement of his appointments gives his appoin- tees free hands to serve the city. He turns over subordinate appointments to the boards and warns them to keep out of polities. | " = = A bill has been introduced in Arizona to bar bridge whist.

Billboard interests which imagined that a Fed- eral question was involved in an advanced idea in billboard regulation adopted by Chicago asked for the protection of the United States Courts. The Federal Supreme Court holds that it is an entirely reasonable exercise of the city’s police power to prevent the erection of billboards on any residence street unless approved by a majority of the property owners. In a large area of the country, billboard regula- tion has been conducted on the narrow theory of obviating danger from fire and from demolition in case of storms. Federal approval of Chicago's or- dinance will carry much weight with state courts ‘which might be inclined to hold such enactments too restrictive. It opens a new and tolerably wide field of regulation. | It is another of several recent decisions of sig- nificance holding that property under private own- ership does not carry with it the right of an un- limited use according to old notions, but is sub- ject to even the conveniences and comforts, as well as more important rights, of the public. = = % re The “Tale of a ‘Tub’” is not a very pleasant story for taxpayers who read of the acticn of seven n Oireuit Judges in the Becker case. 8 re MAKING G GUILT PERSONAL. One of the proprietors of a Brooklyn shirt fac- tory has been sentenced to Sing Sing for two years because the factory was not equipped with proper exits and 13 employes, in consequence, lost their lives in a fire. The Judge who sentenced him every properly remarked that a prison sentence would be far more effective as a warring to other factory owners than the largest fine could pos- sibly be. Testimony at the trial was that an exit that might have enabled the unfortunate workers to escape was locked. It is quite possible that the employer did not have personal knowledge of that. It was his duty to know it, however. lt was a responsibility he could not properly dele- gate to a subordinate. If he was guilty of wrong- doing at all it was a personal guilt and should receive personal punishment. Once that idea, which has long been developing in this country, becomes a generally accepted tenet of the law, pre- ventable industrial accidents will be reduced to a minimum. Tendencies which damage suits and fines have been unable to cure may be expect- ed to respond rapidly to the penitentiary treat- ment. . 8 * THE TOUCH OF NATURE AT AVON. Before the ill-clad tramp, brought to exhaus- tion by cold and lack of food, died at Avon, IIL, where he had sought shelter from the exposure of the road, it was ascertained that his name was Patrick Riley. Who suggested that this stranger, having forced himself on their hospitality and deen taken in, should be spared a pauper’s burial? No doubt it was a woman-—at least someone with a feminine tenderness of heart. never willingly assist a movement to terminate __ Ab eny rate, Avon, having decided that the gra- ers of clevernese—would lend a charm. A Riley who preceded Pat to the shadows would have delighted in it—James Whitcomb. Some will be sure to urtze that the money de- voted to a tramp past all consciousness of kind- ness might better have been used in feeding some live tramp or tramps a-hungered or clothing them in their nakedness. But this is a touch of nature that made all Avonians kin. They are the better men and women for what they did. Blessings will flow from such graciousness to a stranger, for they have been invoked by the high- est spiritual authority as the especial reward for treating strangers as brothers. A A Ae i i A BEN BLEWETT. St. Louis has suffered a distinct loss in the death of Ben Blewett. For more than 40 years he had served the city as teacher, principal and tion to the highest place in the system was the logical outgrowth of conscientious and capable effort. There is no way of estimating all that thousands of boys and girls and grownups of St. Louis owe to this man. Mr, Blewett was a born teacher. Doubtless he could have succeeded in other fields of en- deavor, yet it is hard to imagine him as any- thing except a teacher. His ideals were lofty; his basic principles sound. Methods to him were only methods, to be used or abandoned according to their fitness or unfitness for the realization of ideals. Mr. Blewett possessed the rare merit of being beth democratic and dignified. Behind a calm austerity of manner he masked a heart full of human sympathies. It was a big, generous heart, even if he did not wear it upon his sleeve. Scholarly, yet not pedantic, he brought to any subject he wrote upon a fine mental equipment and a charm and grace of expression that were hallmarks of a superior intelligence. His depart- ure has left a place that will be hard to fill. r= = * = = ‘‘BONEDRY’’ GUN-TOTING BILL. Present laws for the preventing of gun-toting deal with the individual possessor of fire arms and are effective only in exceptional instances. The bill devised by Chief Allender of the St. Louis Detective Bureau would solve the problem by regulating the sale of revolvers, pistols and similar weapons. It provides that no wholesaler shall sell or have in his stock for purposes of sale any wéapon of this character which does not bear the name of the maker, the model in fire arms to which it belongs and a serial number which shall not be the same as that on any other weapon of like make and model. No person other than a wholesaler shall sell or borrow or loan or trade or deliver or receive any ‘realism: in American fiction—we have such writ- |. superintendent of the public schools. His eleva- — — — r 1 5 a ‘i. n “4? , dae 1 430 a 1 —— receiver hag first obtained at a cost of $2 a per- mit or license from a Judge of the Circuit Court of the county. The permit must contain a full description of the weapon and names of the person obtaining it and the person from whom it is obtained. It author- izes a purchase for only 30 days after its issuance, when it must be returned to the clerk of the court, who preserves a full record of applications for permits and the action thereon. The maximum penalties under the bill are $5000 fine and a year in jail. Present laws relating to the unauthor- ized carrying of weapons remain in force. The. bill embodies the practical experience of the Police Department and is asked for by the de- partment officials as a help in efforts to reduce the number of homicides. Chief 8: E. Allender shows that while the pop- ulation of the United States has increased 60 per cent in 20 years, homicides have increased 300 per cent. St. Louis in 1915 had 103 cases of homicide, or 15.9 for each thousand in city population. The rate per thousand is steadily increasing here, as elsewhere, having grown from an average of 12 per thousand in the period from 1905 to 1909. Chicago’s average of one murder for each day in the year except Sundays is appalling enough, but while its actual number of murders for 1915 is 211, or twice St. Louis’, its rate per thousand of population is 8.7. St. Louis’ is 50 per cent more. This city stands ninth among American cities in the frequency of murder. The preparations of the police to deal vigorous- ly with the problem are gratifying. They should be afforded all reasonable aid in new legisia- tion. 81 i There seems to be a Colonel and Bryan possivil- ity for 1920.

Senator Elder of St. Louis is father of à bill which would forbid newspapers to publish an- onymous letters from the public. Just what griev- ance the Sanator has against dear old Pro Bono Pub. is not clear. It must be great if it could induce him to champion such a law. If it were proposed to compel Pro Bono to keep his letters short and to write on only one side of the paper, the measure might receive a little journalistic support. But those who know the old chap best and who admire him in spite of his captiousness and his other shortcomings wil] his existence. After all, it is not who Pro Bono is but what he says that counts. The law already provides sufficient remedies for any improper damage he may do. Whatever he says must stand or fall upon its own merits. Anonymity within itself does not commend any published thing. At the same time, when any person has an idea or in- formation that would be of public value, it should not be lost because sufficient reasons prevent him from identifying himself as its author. Pro Bono has as many eyes as Argus. He has as many hands as Briareus—and hand holds a pen. He may be pestiferous at times but, like the porous plaster, he is most pestiferous when most useful. He serves as a fine counter irritant against the pestiferosity of politicians and of in- different public servants, Sometimes—iet it be confessed—he serves to keep the editors them- selves mindful of who they are and what they are.

ANTWINE ON LEAKS. 66 WONDER if anyone has thought that there 1 are perhaps two sides to the leak question, also? ‘‘T haven't seen anything said for leaks, but I was thinking last night that the President might have been the beneficiary of a little bad government plumb- ing in the matter of the world concert he wants to put on. „There was such an uproar about leaks around Washington at the time he wrote his peace-concert speech that he was afraid to confide in anyone with respect to what he would say, , The result was that no one but himself knew what his plan was. It had not enjoyed criticism from any quarter whatever, and reflected no more than what one man thinks at a time when one man cannot possibly be equal to the situation. 1 cannot believe that the world is going to take “very seriously what he said. The point which I raised here the very next morning is counting heavily against it everywhere. I said that if the President meant a Monroe Doctrine for the world out of which no new empire could be born, he was proposing to halt the march of change, than which there is no greater force in this life. Many men have said that same thing in substance since. „„A nice little leak when he was writing that mes- sage would have enabled some of his advisers to have said that before the speech was made. It would have saved him Trom a mistake in judgment now vir- tually beyond repair. He only said what he did say because in view of the situation he was afraid to tell anyone what he thought of saying. That was a dangerous plight for anyone of great responsibility to be in, and I hope we restore very soon the former normal condition of reasonable leakiness.’’ The following letter was réceived at a public school from one of the parents of a pupil: „please sir to excuse my child’s adenoids. What if he do breath through his mouth? What is mouths for anyhow? Do you wish him to shut the mouth? If you do, I will get him a permit . to open the mouth. Anyhow its his adenoids. Noses are for looks and mouths for airs.’’ It is a question, however, whether the proposed League to Enforce Peace could keep Senator Reed on the reservation. OBERON T0 4 FAIRY.

The average onlooker might conclude that women were growing very extrava- gant in their demand for dainty under- wear.

That is to say, of course, that while the filmy crepe gar- ments are not durable nor cheap, yet they are not intended for everyday wear: yet there is available a delightful supply of garments in wc!l-made, firm cloth, at reasonable prices—just as reasonable as in the days. before they were so pretty. For where we used to get stout, ugly, practical chemises and corset covers, now for the same money we get dainty, well-cut ones, tinted a delicate pink, and carrying a bit of handwork. — * 25 . 1 as 2 * a lis 5 to dec 1 te ourt N . have no ri checks; doing so would cause you a peck \ ae * 8 ait Fe 4 ree * Be “£4 a . > >

Great Caravans Are Passing Through Khyber Pass, a Neutral Strip. FRIENDLY TO BRITISH Amir's Coolies Will Remain in India Till Spring as Unof- ficial Hostages. Correspondence of the Associated Press. LANDI KOTAL FORT, Khyber Pass, Northwest Frontier, India, Jan. 10.—4 demonstration of the present amicable relations between the British Govern- ment and Afghanistan was afforded a correspondent of the Associated Press here in Khyber Pass. Claims and count- er claims regarding the attitude of the Amir of Afghanistan towards the com- pbatants in the world war have deen . made continually since the outbreak of hostil but this much may be af- firmed with certainty: Great taravans, composed of thou- sands of camels. and donkeys, heavily laden with fruits and goods, are pouring into India from Afghanistan through this gateway between the two countries. Mantfestly, these peaceable pilgrimages could not be undertaken were conditions other than quiet. Moreover, and perhaps till more significant, hundreds of Ghilzi, the nomads of Afghanistan, are making their annual journey into the Peninsula with the caravans for trade and for the purpose of securing ptaces as laborers in _ *¥arious sections. These coolies will re- main in India until spring, unofficial hostages for the continued good rela- tions between the Amir and hie power- ful neighbor. The formalities demanded by the neu- . trality of Afghanistan are being rigidiy _ adhered to by the British. From the u about this fort, which is at the ot the and only four miles in- the inte tional line, one can see 8 out toward Kabul, but no one not # connected with the officially sanctioned * caravans does more thar look, for to ~~. venture over the border would give rise to the gravest consequences.

In addition to their frequent skir- | mishes with bands of raiding tribes- men, the Khyber rifles at Landi Ko- tal are responsible for the safe pas- sage of the caravans which the Amir permits to pass through from Ar- ghanistan. All such caravans are ur- der armed escort from the time they begin their journey in Afghanistan until they reach Peshawar, and the same precautions are taken when they return home. As they approach the international line Khyber Rifles or Afghan troops, as the case may be, are waiting to take them over from the guards on the other side.

NEW YORK, Jan. 277.—The war brides’’ and war babies“ of Wall street threaten to swamp all the profits out of the movies, P. A. Powers, treasurer of the Universal Film Manufacturing Co., told the legisiative committee conduct- ing an investigation to determine wheth- er or not the movie companies shouid pay a State tax and how much it should be. War prosperity, Powers said, has been behind the organtzation of 540 companies with $100,000 capita! stock each, and each of these companies had fallen by the wayside. know concerns in which from $1,000,- 000 to $3,000,000 have been put, and more is to be put, which sell pictures at less than cost, and we have to compete against that business. Not that I do not believe there is a firm foundation for the moving picture business. I am sure of it or I'd get out. Sooner or later I feel, that the man who does not be- long in the business will get tired sink- ing his money; then the well-estab- lished industry will make money.“ YOUTHS SAY THEY ROBBED STORE TO HELP DESTITUTE WOMAN They Confess to Helding Up Cigar Store Clerk After Another Man Had Been Arrested. In confessing to the police last night that they held up a cigar store Jan. . Ben Curtis, 19 years old, of 4808A Delmar boulevard, and Charles Wobbe, 20, of 710 South Broadway, said they were actuated by a desire to help re- lieve the destitute condition of Cur- tis’ sister, Mre. Fern Forsaw, and her four small children. The youths said they went to the branch of the United Cigar Stores Co. at Broadway and Market street and after calling for a package of cigarettes, ordered the clerk. Sidney Alexander, to throw up his hands. Curtis covered Alexander with a revolver and Wobbe took $80 from the cash drawer. After leaving the cigar store they said they went direct to the home of Mrs. Forsaw, at 710 South Broadway, where Wobbe boarded, and gave her $19. A week after the robbery, Charles Knox was arrested and was identified ty Alexander as one of the robbers. An information was issued against him, and he is yet in jail. He has insist§d since his arrest that he was innocent. It is expected that he will be released. ST, LOUISAN CONVICTED OF BIGAMY, SENTENCED TO PRISON Howard C.

In the first place, we are n&w wishing that more immi- grants camp to our shores, since there is more labor than workers: secondly, because we are speculating as to what effect the cessation of the European war will have on immigration, and, thirdly, Congress is engaged in trying to restrict immigration by enacting a literacy test. Mr. Warne's book, there- fore, comes in a time when a discussion on the subject is very welcome. | The author takes the middle ground in the controversy. He examines the tide of immigration, how it ebbs and flows, and he also looks into the com- position of the tide. He reminds the restrictionist that on the whole the percentage of immigrants compared to total population is smaller than it ever was. The larger our own population, the larger the number of immigrants we can assimilate. While Mr. Warne. has written a good book, he has failed completely in that he has not told his readers of impor- tant experiments in distribution of im- migrants: tit is rather strange, since he devotes a chapter on distribution as a remedy. He should have told of the important experiment carried on for about 15 years by the Industrial Re- moval Office of New York, with D. M. Bressler as its manager. The office distributed Jewish immigrants to va- rious parts of the country where oppor- tunities were better than in New York City. Thousands of families and indi- viduals were directed to places where their work was wanted. The Federal Government could learn some useful lessons from the Industrial Removal Office activities. If we are preparing for an increased immigration -—and no one is certain about that—it would be well that we look into the mat- ter of distribution. (Appleton's.) THE THOROUGHBRED. NE of the most charming bits of O fiction that has been reviewed in the last several weeks is Henry The Thor- oughbred, in which the author has woven an entertaining and instructive story about the indirect theme of what constitutes real happiness, which, in its final analysis, is work, whether of small Action also has an important place in the storv. The characters of the story at the beginning are in the wealtny class. At the outbreak of the European war they drop into poverty and grad- nally regain their place in the ranks 9»? riches at the close. In this sudden poverty the author traces the emotions of the two principal HEALTH INSURANCE, OW that many states have their Workmen Compensation laws and Employer’s Liability laws, the at- tention of sociologists is turning to health insurance. This phase of prac- tical sociology has been known as “sickness’’ insurance, but since health is to be promoted by this reform it is wise to call it health insurance. New York is now engaged in a campaign for this important social reform. The need of this sort of insurance is quite evident. The working Man can barely make “ends meet in normal times and when sickness comes the fam- ily becomes demoralized. Not only are the expenditures larger, but the income either stops completely or partially. There is hardly any greater calamity that can come into the life of a work- ing class family than sickness. Yet sickness is not really an indi- vidual affair. It is a social symptom and its results are social in nature. The health of the individual depends largely on working conditiéns, on wages, on housing and a number of other matters, beyond the immediate control of the individual worker. It appears jpst that the community should help look after those who suffer as a result of these conditions. How this may be accomplished is set forth in an excellent little book “Standards of Health Insurance, by I. M. Rubinow, M. D., Ph. D., who is the leading expert on social insurance in this country. Dr. Rubinow has made a careful study of this particvlar sub- ject and his book is of great value at this time when the country is beginning to think of social insurance. The au- thor tells of the experience of other countries, along these lines and shows 9: how the best may be adopted by us and the errors evaded. (Henry Holt Co.). THE STORY OF A VISION, O an American woman, a few dec- ades ago, as to two great proph- ets of Israel, came a vision of the glory of the coming of the Lord,“ loos- ing ‘‘the fateful lightnings of his terrible swift sword” in war. Julia Ward Howe visited Washingwn in November, 1861, riding past long lines of durnished rows of steel, girt about by the watch-fires of a hundred circling cumps.’’ In the dim dawn of early morn- ing she rose to write down words that rad been singing themselves to her, to the tune of John Brown’s Body.“ With some emendations, her verses appeared in the February (1842) Atlantic Monthly, the editor, James T. Fields, entitling them Battle Hymn of the Republic.“ The conflict of ideas, and at last of arms, leading up to this stirring lyric and its history since, in great patriotic assemblies, on the march, in camp, hos- pital and prison pen, and rendered into foreign tongues, even now sung by Brit- ish soldiers in the trenches, are told in a little volume Dy a daughter, Florence Howe Hall, entitled The Story of the Battle Hymn of the Republic’’—a story well worth telling.

Prosecuting Attorney Ralph of St. Louis County today filed suit against himself in the Clayton Court, in an ef- fort to save Joseph Kutheis, a farmer near Fenton, from losing his one-acre holding and a $900 house built upon it. According to Ralph, Kutheis’ grand- father, Frank Kolish, who died a year ago, in 1908 gave him an acre of ground upon which to build a home. Later. when Kolish placed a mortgage of 9800 Lo on 42 acres adjoining, by a notary’s er- ror, Kuthels’ property was included in the tract. Kutheis was unaware of the fact until last December, when the hold- er of the deed; Mike Vogelsang, adver- tised the property for sale under a fore- closure. Kutheis, appealed to Ralph, who pur- now brings suit to enjoin himself from sell- ing Kutheis’ holding, and asks that ‘t be declared free of encumbrance. Other defendants named in the petition are Mrs. Mary Kutheis, mother of Kutheis and daughter of Kolish; Annie Mraz and Frank Kolish, sister and brother of Mrs. The plaintiffs are Joseph Kutheis and his wife, Mary.

K. Fleshman, Ein- characters of the story in such a clever manner that the reader is always an- ticipating and wondering what ia going to happen next. The story shows how unhappy the characters are at the beginning while surrounded with all the materia! things which money can buy. Then it snows the small development of happiness in the effectual accomplishment of work and in the closer association. Then. as the tide of fortune again rises, it shows how the persons are able to retain that new-found joy. (Bobbs-Merril!.) ANTHONY WAYNE.

For days she would be taken in the park for a ride, and dressed in ‘her pretty hat and velvet jacket, and at night she would be undressed and put in her little bed just like a real live little girl.

She slid away down and pulled the robe over her, and there she waited to be found. The next day there was a great hunt for Bella. Her little mother cried that she was lost and she just knew she never, would see Bella again. “Where did you have her last?“ asked her mother. “If you put Bella away when you have finished play- ing with her you would know just where to find her. You remember the rubber ball, how you left t in the yard where you dropped it, and now I suppose you have lost Belly the same way.“ ‘i Teddy Bear gave the rubber ball a sly wink and the rubber ball drew in its sides a little just to let Tedd; Bear know he heard.
