GIRL BOXERS WERE NOT SO BRUTAL A large and appreciative audience was treated again last night to a con test for pugilistic laurelß at the Qaye ry theater. Ruth Moore and May Smith members of A1 Reeves’ show, boxed three two-mlnute rounds, attired in nalty suits—sweaters, bloomers, etc., that are worn by the athletes of the opposite sex. The contestants confined themselves to the scientific, and not to the brutal, part of the game, thus elevating the art of the squared circle. The fair boxers dis played all the cleverness and skill that are known to men boxers. The audience, to which was left the de cision, decreed the contest a draw. The unique boxing affair was pre ceded by another Innovation in bur lesque. Under the direction of Mr. Reeves, and after the amateurs Ifed performed, the chorus girls appeared in monologue, skits and other enter taining features, which were In addi tion to the regular show.

SPEAKING BF TUXES, HOW ABOUT WJ. THOMPSON’S MAYOR'S STATEMENT SHOWS NO PERSONAL PROPERTY AND FIRST RETURN ON BUSINESS WAS MADE LAST YEAR. Assessor Plass is going to make an effort to get a law through the next legislature by which the judge of pro bate will be Instructed, In the settle ment of all estates of a value of $lO. 000 ot more, to appoint one of the appraisers by nomination of the as sessor*. This would give the city tax ing officers a chance to see just what taxable property any large estate posstTses aud. with legislation allow ing o: collect lug “dodged" bark taxes, would make It very hard for wealthy men to escape their share of the tax ation The interest of Mayor Thompson In the taxation light is appreciated by the assessors, but some of the aider men bre looking up the mayor's tax record. The mayor is considered a wealthy man. Yet the records show that he has never made any return for per sonal taxation. Last year he returned his tax blank as one having no per sonal property. This means that Mayor Thompson, who lives In a fine house on Trumbull ave., has no furniture of a value of more than S6OO, no watches, carriages, mortgages, cash In bank, or other taxable property. Inquiries us to all these things are included in the tax blank form. Either the mayor has less worldy goods than he has been credited with 01 else he has been thoughtless. The mayor last year—for the first time —made a return on his business. This showed a value of $920 for his stock of meats, cash register, delivery wagons, horses and equipment. The shop has been on Cadlllac-sq. for many years but no previous' recbrd of its havtng been returned for personal tax ation can be found. Some time ago. Aid. Herman Zink, while in the market in which the may or is interested on the square, remark ed that the fixtures there were not returned as personal property. “We consider them as part of the real estate.” said the major. Zink was not fully convinced, how ever. There may be co-operation between the city assessors and state tax com mission In getting after some of the tax-dodgers on personal property. A law jessed by the activity of Haxen 8. Plngree gives the state body power to proceed against estates for collec tion of evaded taxes. It is also claimed that some cor porations have made much larger per sonal property returns to the state auditor general than to the assessors. “That Is a personal matter, not a 'public one.” said the mayor, when asked about his tax returns. He In timated that the assessors have been quite willing to boost bis assessment previously If they could have shown his possession of personal to Justify them in so doing. Controller Doromus. Who was foi tnerly In charge of the tax department of the corporation counsel’s office, says that the law which th* assessors are iffoHng »p ln rt»g«nt li. inltertlfinM evaded taxes from the estates of per sons who have not deUkf Pristine.

R., SWOONS AWAY WHEN QUESTIONED AS, TO ALLEGED MARRIAGE. Miss Rose Bringold, plaintiff In a damage case against the D. U. R. and Who caused a commotion In Judge Brooke's court, Thursday, when she collapsed, fainted again Friday .mom* log. and had to be carried from the stand. A physician was cal)4S. but the woman failed to revive and waa taken to a hospital. The plaintiff was being questioned as to her proper name, and had just been asked If It were not true that she had concealed from Mrs. James Burtenshaw, Pasadena apartments, by whom she was employed, the fact that she had been married four years, and that she was Mrs. Rose BchwarU, when she slid from her chair to the floor In a swoon. The questions seem ed to agitate the witness very much. She looked about neipleealy, at tbe judge and at her friends, and then ai»- poalingly at her questioner as though Imploring mercy. Apparently ah# was trying to answer, but the effort was too much, and when carried from th* court room she was unconscious. After a delay of almost an hour Judge Brooke pronounced tbe cane a mistrial, and another hearing will be held as soon as the woman recovers. It la a peculiar coincidence that Mrs. Bessie Ockford. also a plaintiff against the D. U. R. fainted Thursday afternoon, when being questioned as to her alleged relations with Frederick E. White, whose wife; Edith, has start ed suit for divorce. Mrs. Ockford took the stand, Friday, and admitted that she was the woman named as co-re spondent by Mrs. White, and that she and Mr. White were quite friendly.

With all goods coming to us direct from the mills, at mill costs —with modemly systematized tailor shops—eliminating all extravagance and waste —we not only undersell every other good tailor, but meet readymade on an equal price footing. More than that, a genuine interest is taken in each* and every customer —we want everyone to be as pleased with his clothes, in every way, as we are in executing his order. a reserve. Their reliability, therefore, depends upon the payment by their members of whatever assessments sre necessary to enable them to pay their losses oi expenses.

Mich igan took the lead in refusing to re new ihd society's certificate of author ity on the ground that the bii*iness represented by class B contracts— which constituted the bulk of the so ciety’s business —was not permitted by the fisternal beneficiary law of the state. The law was amended and it resumed the writing. Otto Kelsey, superintendent of in surance for New York state, says the association ha? no deposit with his department; that it has no standard of solvency and that the contract is sued by it does not guarantee the payment of a stated sum at the end of a five-year period, or any definite period of membership. Bupt. Kelsey furnishes the report on the financial standing of the legion, given at the head of this article, as it was filed hi the shape of a state ment for the year ending Dec. 21. 1907, and further says; Th» National Protective legion is operating as an assessment fraternal beneficiary order, subject to the pre visions of the insurance law. It in one of three organisations which acquired the right to pay benefits to living members at the end of a five-year con tinuous period of membership This right to pay what li generally known and understood to be endowment bene fit* waa incorporated In the fraternal taw at the time of the codification of the Insurance laws of 1902. 1192. The department wn opposed to this pro vision of the law and the amendment of 1903, chapter 450. eliminating from Article VII. the right to Incorporate further orders of this character, was passed upon It* recommendation. For your information. I wish to state that this department has continually criticised the faulty and imperfect plan which was In vogue relative to the pay ment of certain lump sums of money at the end of a five-year period of membership regardless of an exact mathematical calculation as to earn ings, accumulations, lapses, etc., aud has advised the public generally and the management of the association that, in the opinion of the department, the old plan of apportioning dividends would be "more than apt to meet with financial disaster." This has resulted, together with other Influences. In there being adopted at Its convention held in September, 1937. an jamendment to the bylaws width TJscahie effective Jan. 1 last, whereby the plan of apportioning dividend* has been changed, so that after the execu tive board meets in January In each year, and after an accurate audit has been made of the affairs of the order, there shall he apportioned to hold ers of certificates in Olase B, Issued five year* previous thereto, such amounts by way of dividends are ob tained by mathematical calculations to be due members holding such certifi cates to be arrived at by the determina tion of excess accumulations arising from certificates upon which payment is to be made. Supt. Kelsey adds that b« believes this plan will work for more stability. From several different sources, emong them being M. O. Rowland, deputy Insurance commissioner' of Michigan, It ft ascertained that by the calculation called for by the amended bylaws of the ordor for the determination of 19011 dividends, pay ments can be made to the holders of matweing coupons tn jfifif to thd amount off each certificate.

BINDER LINT CANNOT BE RE MOVED FROM FLEECE, AND COSTS MANUFACTURERS THOU SANDS— MEETING AT LANSING. i I.ANSiNG. Mich., March 27. (3pe- 1 cia'.' —The State Association of Wool Buyers, the purpose of whose organ isation is to Improve and make n. piofltable the sheep industry in Mien lY&n, held an Important meeting h?re The association expects to cooperate with the wool growers through the far- j mere' club and the State Grange. Tho ■-iUOH.icn moat prominently discussed at the meeting was the Improvement of the duality of twine used in tying up the wool fo* market. It was uuan imouily conceded that the association, trust abolish the use of sisal twine, generally known as binder twine. Thu use of this kind of twine has cos, the manufacturers thousands of dol iais because of the impossibility of getting 1: out of the wool and t'iey are a unit in proclaiming against it and, lu fact, wil lnot have the fleeco tied with it in their mills. Therefore, the wool buyers of Mich igan have decided to decline to buy any fi»ecea tied with sisal. Excessive Amount of Twine. The queetlon next in importance considered was that of the excessive amount of twine, or, as it was refer red id, "rope,” that is in general use today. It is conceded that the far mers are not so much at fault in us ing in the heavier twine, because it is about the only kind of twine offered for sale. The wool buyers, therefore, have concluded to secure an offer for the sale of such a quality of twino as suggested by the manufacturers. After considerable discussion, a res olution was adopted, appointing a committee of three to take up with the state prison board the question of manufacturing a suitable sort of twine, in the hope that It can be manufactured for next year's use at a normal price and to have that kind of twine for the farmers at actual cost The committee appointed, con sists of President E. C. Roberts, of Lennon; Milton Weaver, of Milford, and Edward Frensdorf, of Hudson. Several speeches were made which indicate that the intention of the or ganisation is to work in harmony with the wool growers to improve oondi tlona and to Lav** tb» w**4 brought *o market in such shape that It will bring the most money. The association will hold aoother committee meeting on April 28. at which' time It is hope I and expected that representatives of j the farmers’ clubs and State Grange! will be present and participate In thei discussion.

Mr. Mor gan’s picture adorns the wall of the Inner room of the Rockefellers at 26 Broadway. A visit to the town house of Stan dard Oil failed to verify the truth of the utove statement made by Senator La Kollette in his speech against the Aldrich financial bill on Tuesday. He said the peace feeling betwrusn the two great interests had reached the stage where John D. and J. P. were exchanging photographs and souvenir post cards. "If there Is a picture of Mr. Mor gan in this building I have never seen, it." said J. I. C. Clarke, director of publicity for the Rockefellers. "I'm dlmovt certain that there Isn’t a pic-j mre of Mr. Rockefeller around the place, either. There are no Inner rooms or star chambers where it might be possible for such a picture to be without mv knowing It." CANADA SPENDS MILLIONS FOR U. S. SEED OTTAWA.

A Democratic county official ha* been somewhat active of Ihlo In ad (rot ating the choice of Judge James Phelan for mayor. There was a lime acme years ago when Phelun wanted the mayoralty and It is argued that jhe could be elected easily.

Frank Daniels, that ptlnce of ente-- tajners, with a Jolly company, present ed the laugh producing comic opera “The Tattooed Man,” ill the Detroit opera house Monday night. The music Is by Victor Herbert and the libretto la the week of Harry P. Smith and A. N. C. Fowler. There is a story to be told in the opera, but very little of the entertain ment depends upon that feature. It’s purely and simply an opportunity to display the Daniels’ drollery and that it succeeds admirably in that particu lar was evidenced Monday night. The story tells that Omar Khayam, Jr., af ter landing a weather prophet Joo with the Shah of Persia, makes the most of his opportunity while the rul er goes on a visit to Paris, leaving Omar In charge of the palace. Omar is known as “The Tattooed Man’ be cause of a sacred birthmark mi the back of his neck in 1 lie form of a scaraebus or mystic Persian beetle Omar falls in love with Leila, the pret tiest girl in the palace, but is already the marked-down prey of Fatima, the lady with the funny face and perpeu dicular hair. The ardent attentions ot the woman Fatima, a study In angles, produces continuous laughter. Fatima plans to rid herself of her rival, ivoila, by marrying her to au Arab chief. Omar derides to put die Arab to death, but a> he is about to execute his rival, he discovers the magic mark on his,neck. His astro. oglcaT Tore rein him that shontd he execute him his own death would iui mediately follow. The complications that follow keep the audience In a comtant stream. Daniels reuds from ills almanac, sings three or four sougs and concludes tho evening of merriment by singing “Rain in the Face,” which he quite seriously assures the audience he wrote himself. Ixutlse Sylvester, na Fatima, the vail flower, was an able assistant to Daniels In making tho opera a success, ami her song. “Nobody l.oves Me.” left na doubt in the minds of her list ener? that, next to Daniels, she was the best entertainer on the stage. So far as tho vocal art la concern ed, the honors fall to William Dan forth, the Arab chief, but one of the most Interesting songs of the evening was the trio, In ’The Secret,” which "You know, I know, he knowa and she knows,” by Hashish, janitor of the Khah R harem, impersonated by Nare Bonrllla; Muley, Inspector of the mint, by George Corry, and All, a court nuis ance, by Gilbert Clayton. Harry Ciarke, as Algy Cuffs, the matinee idol, was unusually clever In a ape cialty. Julia Brewer, as Leila, and NortnA Kopp as Alma Omar's daugh ter, added materially to the success of the evening. As the whole, the company is gool, the choruA work excellent and the set ting pretty. The opera lias the effect of producing Just what It ia Intended to produce, an evenlng a pleasant di version. The engagement lasts the remainder of the wuek, with a mat inee Saturday.

RAILROADS MAY TRY TO EVADE 8-HOUR LAW CHICAGO. March 27.—Several large railroad systems, notably the New York CentraJ. have Leen advised by their legal departments that the ef fect of the law limiting the hours of labor of employes ian be partially •vnded by closing all offices now con tinually open for an hour or so out of every 24, thereby bringing them under a class not designated by the law. The railroads can then woik the operators at these offices 10 or 11 hours, as they may desire.

THE HAGUE. March 27.—The Dutch people are showing intense aoxletjr over the qucbtlon of the royal succession since the prospect of Queen Wilheimiua dying without children Is no longer remote. The queeu objects to the matter being discussed, but her ministers insist that it will be acces sary to name u provisional heir to the throne. Os the three princes who hope to sit on Wilhelmlna’s throne, a son of the Prince Zu Wled, a brother of the queen of Romania, is the least un popular. The elder Prince Zu Wled is a son of a Nassau princess, which adds to (he regularity of succession, Wllhelmina being the last of the younger line of the house of Nassau. The prince of Zu Wied also recom mends himself to the people of the Netherlands because, though servlug in the Prussian army, he does not parade his military affiliations. No Germans for Them. On the other hand, because Prince Henry XXXIi. and Henry XXXIII. of Reuss; who are likewise candidates for the Dutch throne, have visited Queen Wllhelmina repeatedly In full regimentals, the first wearing the uni form of the Germany navy, the other that of a lieutenant of Prussian Dra goons, the Netherlander are violently opposed to them, thlnklug that if a Reuss becomes king of the Nether lands he may try to introduce German army methods. Prince Henry XXXII. is thirty yeara old, his brother twenty-nine. The lat ter is attached to the German embassy In Paris. The’claim of these two princes to the Dutch crown is through their mo ther, Marie, Princesß Saxe-Wetrnar. One reason for Dutch anxiety is the report persistently spread by the Brit ish Press that Emperor William of Germany has designs on Holland and would take the failure of the succes sion as a signal to attempt to unify the Netherlands with the German em pire.

KING EDWARD TO OPEN DOVER HARBOR LONDON, March 27.—When the new harbor at Dover Is finally complet ed. which Is expected to be about the end of the present year, the kins hopes to open the harbor In person. The questlor of providing shore de fenses for the protection of this har bor Is now under consideration, and the naval and military authorities are at loggerheads as to the precise form these defenses should take. The military party pins its faith to huge forts on the cliffs around the harbor, equipped with long-range guns, while the naval authorities hold that the best defense of the harbor will consist of the strong flotilla of swift torpedo destroyers that Is always to be stationed here.

Page Eight DETROITERS EAGER FOR LAWSON'S “EOOO THINE" 6ROKERB HAVE BUNCH OF BUY ING ORDERS FOR YUKON GOLD CO. •TOOK—LOCAL CONCERN OWNS ADJOINING CLAIMS. Excitement wm on all aion* GrU wold-*t. when Thomas W. Lawson a new gold mining stock offer was an nounced Friday morning. All t«« brokers report that they have pleat of buying orders for the opening or the stock market Saturday. What gives the Investment peculiar interest to Detroiters is the fact that the claims Included in the group ad join those of the Canadian Klondike Mining Cos., the many difficulties or which have been exploited in the courts. At the present time the con trol of the property is in dispute be tween a Canadian group, consisting of Joseph Boyle and others and a «>'Be rate of Detroiters, consisting of M. J. Murphy. R A. Alger, Fred T. Moran, L. Rothschild and others. The name of Guggenheim hsa also aroused interest In Lawson s project, as the six Guggenheim brothers are the biggest mining men in the coun try It will be recalled that it was the option secured by the Quggenheims on Niptssing minea. In Cobalt that •ent the stock of that concern up to nearly 40 from almost nothing. Then they forfeited their option and the stock fell away again. One Detroiter stood to win SIOO,OOO on that coup, but held too long and lost. •We have had a great many in quiries for the Lawson stock, but the sale does not begin until Saturday, ao we cannot say Just how extensive ly it will be bought here in Detroit, says Cameron Currie, broker. Indi cations are that Detroiters will go in heavily, hovewer.’ 1 Like the Canadian Klondike claims, the Lawson group are hydraulic and dredging propositions rather than deep mining. The Yukon Gold Ca is the name and there are $.500,000 shares of which 700.000 will be offered to the public at prices from $5 to $7.50, Expert opinions are given to back up the claims of the richness of the mines, among them being one from A. N. C. Treadgold. who was n witness In the Canadian litigation ove* the Canadian Klondike ooncern. A suit for $500,000 damage* was started in the circuit court Friday morning by Fred T. Moran, M. J. Murphy, Jeremiah Dwyer and Louts Rothschild against the Canadian Klon dike Mining Co* The case is an outgrowth or the fight made by Joseph Boyle, a Klon dike miner, to prevent the Detroiter* from free ting him out. Boyle won a case against the Detroiters, which was heard by Justice Riddell, in Sandwich, several months ago, when -the Detroit men were ordered to pay him a half million dollars.

Life Romance of Chester Gillette find Grace Brown A MILL girl’s romance was the be ginning of the tragedy lu the lives of pretty Oroi v Brown and Ches ter Gillette. There is nothing more pitirul In fiction than the sadness which her own love und the inhuman selfishness of the man she loved brought into her life. From th# mo ment she met Gillette she was mark* and Yoc suffering which ended only when hor helpless body sank beneath the wa ters of Big Moose lake. In the Adiron darks—his Victim. And for him there Is only, fear, shrinking from pain, from the un kr.owu, but In his small soul he cannot, feel as Grace Brown felt. He cannot suffer, even lu the electric chair, where he must sit on Monday, the terrible anguish felt by the sweet, unselfish, simple hearted girl of 20, who had Slven her trust, her hope, her very life ito his hands, dancing and her happy heart making her sing as she worked. In a small country place like Oort* laudt, social distinctions are not finely drawn. Although Olllette was the su perior of the gTrl in family, education and prospects, this was no bar to their Intimacy. Dawning of Her Love. Then she grew* to love him. Glllstts had a winning way and It was not long before poor Tittle •Billy" Brown was completely, devotedly his slave. And in this first period of her lova she found perfect happiness—the great Joy of her life that was sooh to be so clouded with sorrow Gillette behaved w-ith great decorum toward the girl at the Wheeler house and was generally regarded there as her suitor. Then Gillette begun to grow tired of her. Her quick intuition saw this al most before the man himself knew It. It almost broke her heart, but she hid her knowledge, even front hint, and tried to win, him back. He would be away from her for long Intervals and It was during theso that 4he pathetic letters introduced in the trial, and now classic lu criminal history, were writ ten. Grace Brown was a tender child with the soul of a woman. Gillette was a sensualist with the soul of a monster. Grace Brown was the fourth, child of Frank U. Brown, a faWner of OstoJlc. N. Y.. and was 20 years old when (the was killed by Chester Gillette. In lt«r native village Bhe grew Into the love of the people as she grew In yeuts. She was slender, bright, graceful, wiln brown hair that colled high, on her poised head, and brown eyes. She was the most popular girl In tltv village among those of Tier own age, who called her "Billy;" she was the most loved of the girls In the village among the elders, who called her Grace. Her father’s family was large and she went to Cortland to get work. She lived with the Wheeler family, friends of her father, and soon found a chance to earn her own living and help In r famllv In the shirt factory of N. 11.

Amazing nerve, this, you say at once. Not at all. Port Huron’s history in wholesale thievery gives re-assurance and hope to scoundrels of the Wilson type. The last time the people up there dealt with a recreant fra ternity official—not so many years ago, either —they invited ju9t such a scandal as has now come upon them by the extreme tender ness of their treatment of the guilty man. In behalf of the members of the fraternity, whose interests were looked after neither by the officers of the organization nor the peo ple of Port Huron, this paper did what it could to make this official« recreancy an example and a warning to other custodians of the people’s money. And was warmly berated by many of the good citizens of Port Huron for shamefully pursuing a popular citizen who was “a good man at heart.’ (Said heart not happening to be the repository of the many thousands of missing funds.) Tender mercy (meaning ‘‘pul!”) prevailed in this instance, and Port Huron there and then fixed the standard of probity for cus todians of fraternity funds. The supreme financial keeper of the Maccabees became a dark lantern to the feet of the supreme secretary of the United Home Protectors. William L. Wilson protected the homes in just about the same fashiqn that Charles D. Thompson kept the finances. And in view of Port Huron’s revision of the Commandments “Thou shalt not steal ON A SMALL SCALE”-—Wilson has a right to feel that his fellow-officials and his fellow-townsmen will come to look upon him as not such a terrible sinner, after all. The Times has pointed out repeatedly that banks and trust companies and fraternities are seldom wrecked or robbed from the OUTSIDE. The job is done in nine cases out of ten from the INSIDE. And every time internal villainy of this type (that visits loss and anguish upon innocent and trustful patrons and investors) is [weakly condoned by associates and friends of the plunderers, the jseed is sown for a repetition of the rascality. Port Huron deserves no sympathy. As it has sown, so has it reaped. Where Solis the Yukon** And the Uwson Rhetoric Tom W.

All the week with the cheerful co-operation of the daily news papers—who have “generously donated” pages of their space for the good work, of course—he has been inviting the panic-sufferers to form a Lawson gold line on Saturday and receive at his hands da chunk of Yukon gold. i' Generously set aside for the dear people at his solicitation by the “Guggenheim group.” It seems almost too good to be true —real nuggets passing through the hands of Guggenheim and Lawson into the possession of the casual readers of the News and Free Press. And yet there it has been at top of column day after day, in the very preferred positions made sacred by the Uncle Sqm Oil Cos. and the New York-to-Chicago-in-io-Hours Hot Air Line—who oan dispute it? Not Tom W. himself, surely, for the nuggets haven’t been gath ered yet. There may be more of them than he claims—they may be like the limped phrases of his proclamations, which no man can number. Wf return to his sacrificial labors. We felt sure he would not stay in. retirement when the moans of a deserted nation reached his ear. We congratulate him on the formation of the Saturday gold line. It beats Fleischmann’s bread line all hollow. But we beg of him to save a Yukon nugget or two for himself —for himself and the newspapers that have so generously assisted in advertising the gold line. 14 They're entitled to a look in, at least, on the fruits of their own philanthrophic labors.

There are not many men in the con sular service of the United States who have traveled more extensively than J.

Before en tering the service Mr. Miller had a varied experience as a newspaper cor respondent, and he visited nearly ev ery country in the world. He showed much activity and Intelligence in the reports furnished to the government during his period of office. There la some ground for believing that con gress may take note of the condition to which Mr. Miller's resignation called attention, and sanction a more liberal exploitation of the district in which he was stationed.
