Takes Boxing Leesons in Order to Thrash His Captain in the Great War.

Washington, Jan. 1.— The dawn of the New Year found the serious diffl- oultles Involved in the tariff and taxation problems still unsolved by OongresB.

With but two months left in which to dispose of thirteen big appropria­tion bills, leaders of Congress ad­mitted there was little or no pros­pect of any other important legisla­tion being enacted before the pres­ent final session of the present Con­gress ends on March fourth.

' Omnibus Tariff Bill.In view of the opposition of Sena­

tor Penrose, of Pennsylvania, chair­man of the Senate financial commit­tee and other Republican Senators from manufacturing sections to the omnibus bill passed by the. House, it was not regarded as likely to pass the Senate in Its present form.

Penrose held conferences today With. Republican members of the committee at his hotel. Members of the Pennsylvania delegation in the House were also to see him during the day. A number of them are 'from sections of Pennsylvania whose manufacturing interests are arrayed acidly against any emergency or reinedial tariff legislation at this

Norfolk, Va., Jan. 1.— Samuel Berman, of New York City, a former soldier, celebrated New Year’s by wiping out a score against his former captain in the army that had been grieving him for two years. The former captain is B. R. Fink, a mer­chant of this city. Berman called Fink from his store and told him that he was going to get satisfaction at last. Fink weighs 210 pounds and stands over six feet. He put up a stiff battle but was no match for the irate ex-private.

Berman said that he had gone in­to training for the fight as soon as he got out of the army. He took boxing lessons and added 10 pounds to his weight. The trouble between the two men dates back to the time when they were training at Camp Lee. Fink’s sister attempted to get a room near the camp In a boarding house operated by Berman’s rela­tives. They claimed there was no room for her and Fink was alleged to have made it unpleasant for Private Berman. The war is over at last for Berman and Fink.

San Francisco, Jan. 1.— Three were near death today, thirty-nine more in hospitals suffering from serious injuries, and hundreds nurs­ing bruises as the result of ihe col­lapse of the Timber street viaduct built along the new Loew Theatre Building at Market and Taylor streets.

The collapse occurred almost at the stroke of midnight when the New Year hilarity was at its height and the streets crowded with merry­makers. Police estimated that five hundred were on the viaduct at the time.

It gave way in the center and precipitated all within the radius of the break twenty feet to the base­ment floor.

More than a score of the seriously injured were women.

Fractured legs and arms, internal injuries, bruises and lacerations, predominated in the list of injuries.

The temporary timber viaduct ex­tended slightly over two hundred feet.

Washington, Jan. 1.— The State Department today was without de­tailed information concerning the drowning in Mexico of D. Clarence Gibboney and three other Philadel­phians, on December 29.

Last night the State Department received a brief message from O. Gaylord Marsh, American consul at Progreso, Mexico, stating that it was reported that D. Clarence Gibboney, J. A. Shriver, John Markley and Lawrence Markley had been drown­

ed on Dec. 29, near Champoton, in Campeche. The message gave no details but asked that the informa­tion be transmitted to the Tropical Products Company, of Philadelphia;

Gibboney had acted as counsel for Grover Bergdoll, draft dodger, and he also had been prominent in sev­eral reform movements in Philadel­phia politics.

It is understood that Gibboney and his party went to Mexico to investigate a lumber project.

London, Jan. 1.— Secret service agents are making a search in Ire­land for Eammon De Valera, “ Presi­dent of the Irish Republic,’’ who managed to slip back into the coun­try in spite of the strong guards.

Whether De Valera will be arrest­ed if found is not known. Sir Hamar Greenwood, chief secretary for Ire­land, was asked today if De <^alera would be arrested, but he declined to answer.

Scotland Yard officials are deeply chagrined over the ease with which the Sinn Fein leader eluded them. Some of the officials went so far as to express doubt as to the truth of the information that IJ,® Valera is in Ireland.

Dublin, Jan. 1— Dublin Castle, seat of British authority in Ireland, claimed that the Irish Republican Army today has been “ defeated’’ through the drastic military precau- tjions which have rendered it inef­fective..

On the other hand, extremists among the Sinn Feiners claimed that big battles are ahead and that there will be much fighting before peace settles down upon the coun­try.

Easily Eluded Arrest.However, in spite of military reg­

BURGLARS TURNGOOD SAMARITAN

Bringing Watchman They Shot toChicago Hospital When Their AutoIs Wrecked and They Abandon It.

Chicago, Jan. 1.— Burglars who apparently had planned a daring raid on the homes of wealthy Chica­goans living in North Shore suburbs, today shot one watchman on the Lib- ertyville estate of Samuel Insull, mil­lionaire public utilities magnate, and are held responsible for the disap­pearance of another watchman whose fate is problematical.

Sam’uel Vandery, the wounded watchman, is in a hospital here with a bullet wound over his heart. No trace has been found of a second watchman who was supposed to have been on duty.

The Insull-rt^idence was un-occu- pied, the family being at their town house in Chicago.

After the raid, the burglars turned Samaritan and turned to bring Van­dery to a hospital in Chicago. En route their auto was wrecked and the bandits abandoned Vandery in the damaged machine where he was

News that the “ Irish President” had returned home, recalled the per­sistent reports that he was sailing on the liner Aquitania. Scotland Yard had received positive informa­tion on December 14, that De Valera was returning on the Aquitania, but when the liner was searched at Southampton, no trace of the elusive Irishman was found. It was held possible that De Yalera had been upon the liner, leaving her at a French port. It would have been easy for De Valera to cross from France or Spain to Ireland in a small boat or even a sailing freighter.2— Add 1 under dash— secret service

TWO POLICEMENFATALLY INJURED

Fabyans, N. H., Jan. 1.— With aching bodies but thanking their lucky stars that they are alive, E. F. Cook, of Duluth; Max E. Goldr berg, of Chicago, and Benjamin J. Scheinman, of Detroit, Harvard students, were resting in Jack Coreau’s Cabin today, recovering be­side a warm log fire from a battle with the elements for two days and two nights on blizzard swept Mount Washington. Searching parties were preparing to go out on the range when the half starved and nearly frozen youths staggered to safety at the base of the mountain. Cook was so exhausted that he was being half-carried by his companions.

The trio had only four cakes ot 'ihocolate each to eat during the sixty hours’ ordeal. They battled against a 90-mile an hour blizzard to reach the Summit House. They broke into this hotel. Weak from hunger they began the descent of the snow and ice packed slopes of the mountain yesterday afternoon. Lost in a fog they fell into a ravine and nearly tumbled into a chasm. They crept along cliffs until they hit the trail for the base.

London, Jan. 1.— Eammon De Valera, President of the Irish Re­public, who, according to an official announcement in New York yester­day, has returned to Ireland, will be placed under arrest on a technical charge upon sight, it was learned at the Irish Office this afternoon. It was pointed out, however, that if certain guarantees were given, De Valera would not be molested.

Inquiries at Dublin Castle elicited the information that the British officials are without any inforniation' as to the present whereabouts of De Valera, said a Dublin dispatch.

Some of the officials advanced the opinion that De Valera may still be in America and that the announce ment of his return to Ireland was a blind to throw the authorities off the real track.

Sergeant O’Brien receiv­ed a probable fracture of the skull. It was said at the hospital that he would probably die.

Rome, Jan. 1— Gabriele D’Annun­zio, the stormy petrel of Fiume, at­tempted to pass from the city he had held for more than a year in a blaze of mlllttiry glory, but was prevented by Gen. Caviglia, said a dispatch from Fiume today. D’An­nunzio asked for permission to lead his trtoops and to retire with'flags flying and bands playing, but was compelled to sign an agreement to leave without any such pomp.

London, Jan. 1.— London newspa ers today gave the most conspicuous

display to dispatches from New York announcing the return of Eammon De Valera to Ireland. Most of the papers printed De Valera’s threat to go on a hunger strike to the death if he is arrested.

The Dublin correspondent of The Star says that a tremendous sensa- tiop was created by news of De Val­era’s return. Raids are occurring night and day and it is believed that the soldiers and Black and Tans are really searching for De Valera.

SINN FEIN MAY MAKE PEACE PROPOSALS

Detectives Shadowing Father O’Flan­agan in Hope of Finding De Valera

Dublin, Jan. 1— Eammon De Valera has been in Ireland for more than a week according to information secured today from Sinn Fein forces.

The Rev. Father O’Flanagan, act­ing President of the Sinn Fein, in the absence of Arthur Griffith, who is in Mountjoy jail, came to Dublin, but whether he has been in communica­tion with De Valera is not known. He refused to give any information when approached on the subject.

There seems to be ground for the belief that the Sinn Fein is formulat­ing final peace proposals for pre­sentation to the British government.

Scotland Yard detectives are shadowing Father O’Flanagan evi­dently hoping to secure information as to De Valera’s whereabouts through that source.

The feature of Germany’s inter­national relations which is arous­ing keen interest on the opening day of the new year is the prospective early peace witlh the United States. Public opinion views the coming of peace as one of the few agreeable aftermaths of the war.

This is partially because there never was a pronounced feeling of hostility to America. There is'also the conviction that the United States will not present staggering bills for indemnities and that com­mercial relations with the United States will be resumed on a large and generous scale. A Spring influx of American tourists is also one of the comfortable speculations in­dulged in as a natural result of the recent American and German ship­ping agreements.

lost world war. Another promi­nent manifestation at the opening of 1921 is the steady drift away from political and economic radical- i:sm, so that no matter how the treaty is modified in the near future Germany is resigned to her inevitable lot and is seeking to meet it by an intensification of effort and of ex­ploitation throughout her wide field of industries and resources.

Pear of Bolshevism Wanes.While the spectre of Bolshevism

continues to cast a sinister shadow across the East Prussian frontier, German prophets of Russian Com­munism are finding dwindling favor among the rank and file of the Ger­man proletariat. That this is the actual condition in Germany today in the face of the fact that the Moscow Government has succeeded in rein­forcing itself a home is received as proof of the familiar theory that, given food and stablized economic and political conditions, the German workingman cannot be won over to Utopian experiments.

The growing stability recorded in German political and economic activ­ities is chiefly an accomplishments of the last six months. It is accounted for in the active resumption of im’- portant pre-war industries, the re­opening of former markets oversea arfd the^bettermi|ht la the ftCbor sit nation, despite constantly mounting wage scales and food prices, which still leave the ordinary but vita staples beyond the reach of even the well-paid workers.

Whether these beginnings toward an economic revival in industries finances and exports can be maintain ed on a constantly ascending scale during 1921 is a jnatter of conjec­ture, at least until Germany receives a precise and definite interpretation of the financial and reparation clauses of the treaty.

Debts and Deficits Still Mount.Germany enters the new year with

a national debt which will far exceed 200,000,000 marks by April 1 next. This sum does not include amounts she is called on to pay to her own subjects in private claims. They will add another '100.000,000 marks to the above total.

The government admits a railway, postal and telgraph deficit of 20,- 000,000 marks. It is threatened with a huge increase in the public payroll. It is domestic budgets gen­erally have vacillated so freely in the course of presentation to the Reich­stag that they no longer offer a tangi­ble basis but merely analytical com­putations.

The “ paper deluge” at the begin­ning of the year is generally suspect­ed of being well in, excess of $80,- 000,000,000. Germany is paying out billions monthly for food pur­chases abroad and these will continue well into the new year, owing to the inadequacy of the last harvest. Wheat thus bought is paid for In for­eign exchange.

The labyrinth of deficits and bil­lion-mark expenditures is in a chaotic state, with revenues which are to a large extent on paper or are arbitra­ry estimated. The government finan­cial policies thus far have been wholly inadequate to cope with the confusion prevailing in the nation’s exchequer. None of the measures in its expensive system of taxation is operative and the fate' of the na­tional emergency sacrifice levy which is tantamount to confiscation of capi­tal and private fortunes, is also in abeyance.

It is doubtful whether there is a taxable man or woman in Germany who is able to compute the amount of his or her taxes and decide whether the tribute to be exacted by the Fatherland for the new year for the purpose of paying off former enemies

be j will indefinitely pauperize the indlvld- I ual 01 whether “big busihess” can

Prominent Praisessurvive the raid on capital provided for in the drastic measure. This levy already has met with heavy op­position in the Reichstag.

The government’s delegates to the recent Brussels conference returned in a happy frame of mind. They car­ried home the impression that the German plea for an early, business­like adjustment of the reparations issue had not been in vain, that the burden of entertaining the army of occupation would be ameliorated, the coal levy reduced and the gold repa- ations assessmieht held down to

such dimensions as eventally to en­able Germany to float credits abroad. Hope for Trade is ^ u r Exchange.

Germany hopes to appease the Entente’s demands in this direction v/ith coal, dyestuffs, pharmaceutical preparations, potash, etc., thus en- bling her to keep her industries in

motion and incidentally stimulate exports with a view to improving her battered mark as a medium of payment.

While these are the issues which are vexing the nation in an econ­omic direction and influencing re­lations with former foes, German natjional interest iti the fate of Up­per Silesia is rapidly crystallizing into a vociferous pronouncement that the loss of this wealthy coal and industrial sector would inflict irreparable inujry upon Germany’s recuperative powers as a debtor na­tion. The “ switch to the right” which began in Bavaria and was re­peated in a sensational manner in

Red Saxony” is viewed as a nat­ural symptom of the popular disgust with socialistic failures in state and local administrations.

A strdng movement is under way to found a “ Centre Party” which would represent a merger of the German Peoples’ Party, the Cleri­cals and the Democrats. It would mark an end to the present party confusion in Parliament, and would offer a strong opposing unit by the radicals.

The Government, up to the pres­ent, has made only a timid advance in the direction of carrying out its socialization program, into which it was virtually bludgeoned by the dictates of the powerful labor ele­ment. It defends its course of hes­itation by declaring that the pres­ent time is inaUspicibiis fo c, reaching econoinfe. experimen assetts* that the Ailtifuates’ * w out of the Peace Treaty alsefc ' have a decisive bearing on the whole schema of Government ownership.

Constitutional convulsions are hardly expected before such a time as fihe nation is again economically intact.

“ Superior, in some respects, to our city hospitals.” The foregoing was the opinion expressed yesterday by Dr. Charles E. Taft of Hartford, when asked by a local resident what he thought of the Manchester Memorial hospital. Coming from a physician who is acknowledged to be one of the foremost medioal authorities and surgeons in New England, this un solicited praise is worthy of re­petition. Dr. Taft is a member of the staff of surgeons of St. Francis hos­pital. It wad he who performed the first operation at the, new hospital Thursday morning.

Dr. Taft, during his conversation, touched upon many of the new and modern features of the local hospital The general layout of the hospital came in for a great deal of praise and he was particularly impressed with the adjustable beds which ha,ve been installed in the various wards; a new feature in this section of the East. The beds are so constructed that a reclining patient may be raised or lowered comfortably with being in the least bit disturbed.

The Hartford physician also point­ed out that Manchester was fortunate indeed in having on tlie consulting staff of its new hospital, many eminent and skillful Hartford county specialists. Many out-of-town physi cians were greatly surprised wlien hey learned of the pe sonnel of tli

consulting staff.Dr. Taft yesterday spoke of the

enthusiasm and energy all of the local physician. lr;ve put into the hospital project. And last of all— but not the least— he reserved a portion of his praise for the capable corps of nurses.

Not only Doctor Taft, but all of the physicians throughoiit both flart- fofd county and the state, have ex­pressed themselves as surprised aricl pleased with the Manchester Memorial hospital, its lay-out, eqtilp-

“Mr. Gloom, how many prizes do you think we should give at our baby show next week?”

“How many babies do you expect to be in the contest, Mrs. Clatter?”

“About one hundred, probably.” “Then give one hundred first prizes.”

The Reason.“There goes a man who doesn’t

get credit at any business establish­ment In this town.”

“You don’t say so! Why, I under­stood he was exceptionally reliable. Why doesn’t he get credit?”

“Because he prefers to pay cash.”

Chicago, Jan. 1.— Forewarned of the plans of the plotters, post-office inspectors and Chicago detectives foiled a plan to rob the mails here and two men, each a former mail wagon driver, are under arrest to­day.

The men arrested, Leo Meyer, of Chicago, and Clifford Kiddiner, of I’ensacola, Fla., were captured as they lay in wait for an auto truck that gathers registered mail from a number of outlying postal stations. They had planned to blockade the roadway, overpower the driver and make off with the truck and its loafi.

The former employrnent as wagon drivers, it is declared, gave Meyer and Kiddiner knowledge of the fact that valuable mail was carried dh the truck they sought to rob.

Anna Cornwall in a Universal spe­cial ‘‘x'l'.e Girl in the Rain,” w ill top a big holiday bill tonight at the Park. Other shorter subjects will be on the bill also. «

The charm of Blanche Sweet's personality literally floods every scene of ‘‘Simple Souls,” the Jesse D. Hampton production which will be the feature here tomorrow. It is based on the popular novel by John Hastings Turner.

Miss Sweet is cast in a role which requires a full complement of his- tronic abilities. From the sweet sim plicity of an unsophisticated- girl, to the quick wrath and fear of a woman scorned, she is admirable. Don’t miss this romance!

Briefly, the story is that of a poor, discouraged shop girl who dreams of happiness but sees no chance of get­ting it. Sitting disconsolate in a park, she arouses the sympathy of a Duke, who makes a chance acquaint ance and later regularly sends her a small allowance to purchase books This brings her into disrepute with her mother. The Duke learns of the situation and marries her, but snobbish relatives endeavor to break up the couple. The girl weathers a series of difficult situations and wins out.

Bill Hart is back in a trne-to-lib Western role in “Sand!” the featun loday, ■w'hich is announced as tin first of the new Hart series that t!.' rugged actor is depending entire]; upon his own efforts to ‘‘put over.' .-\nd ‘‘Sand!” has sand. It is a typical Hart picture, only somewhat better than those he has been mak­ing for the last year or so. H shows careful attention to every­thing, a novel plot and enough thrills to make it please most everybody. The pinto pony shares honors with the star. In one scene Hart and the horse leap from a cliff into th-;* river and the only criticism of this ic that the scene is altogether too short. The story has been worked out so the audience has an idea of the fini’sh, but it brings a certain amount of sympathy to the hero.. Particular mention should be made? of Mary Thurman, who is the leadm’g woman. . . . There are a fewriver scenes that will command the admiration of everybody. . . . ■The only difference in the character portrayed by the star in this picture, as compared to any of his previous Western dramas, is that he is a hero throughout, and not a bandit or a bad man.

THE IRISH RULE THE ROOST.New York— ^When Joe Lynch, the

little blue-eyed Irishman from the West Side, copped the bantam'weight title from Pete Hermann he put the Irish in the lead for boxing honors.

Of the six big classes, the Irish now rule four. At present the champions of the different classes are:

Jack Dempsey, heavyweight cham­pion (Irish).

Johnny W ilson, middleweight champion (Italian).

Jack Britton, welterweight cham­pion (Irish).

Benny Leonard, lightw eight cham­pion (H ebrew).

Johnny Kilbane, featherweight champion (Irish ).

Joe Lynch, bantamweight cham­pion (Irish ).

If Johnny W ilson would only ■ome out of his hole and meet Mike 3 ’Dowd in a return match the Irish ■night claim five of the six titles. There isn’t a son of old Erin in sight ivbo can cop the title from Leonard

‘‘A ■ vonian apparently not under fifty years of a.ge called in person at he cfficB to ascertain if anything ■ould be done to stop abusive treat-

It proved to be merely a family squabble. The father is still energetic :nd has the frequent assertiveness of cld men as to their rights and pri- ’.’ileges.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 31, 1920.

1921There is inevitably a momentary

feeling of regret at the passing of the Old Year. The old gentleman may not have tjreated us to his best but we have lived quite a long time with him, have got used to his ways and cannot permit him to pass on his way toward the limbo of other forgot­ten years without the triliutc of a sigh. People do not like change ami some of the solemnity that attaclies to the placing of tlie final pause to a human life attends the last fleeting hours of the dying year.

There is little time, however, for wasted regret for the year tliat is gone. The sturdy young newcomer claims our attention and intngues our interest with all his suggestions of betterment, of happiness, of con­tent that never was hut always is to be.

They are not ideal conditions thai confront the New Year on llic threshold of his incumbency of an­other of Father Time’s too fleeting divisions of human existence. The world is still in travail, still strug­gling slowly and painfully back to sanity and decent living conditions.

The War’s Aftermath.Up and down and to and fro upon

the war-ravaged earth famine and pestilence, those grim twins, off­spring of the world cataclysm, still stalk almost unchecked. If there arc millions of children on the verge of starvation in central and eastern Europe there certainly must be mil- lloDB of. adults very seriously under- nourijihed, to say the least. The N*ar East adds its quota of hcart- bi#ak to the harrowifig stories of

Over wide regions of Eu-

~ ol&iln||| .sn thousands of victims. Milltonif sirs dying in China wit.h scarce a thought from the world out­side and civilized beings have re­verted to murder and cannibalism as horrible methods of staying the in-

■ exorable exaction of tribute from ex­treme hunger and cold.

There is beside much and wide­spread suffering that does not gain the ear of the world nor benefit from its charity. For years to come hope will have a diflicult task in rein­stating itself in many human hearts.

The Brigiitcr Bide.Happily, there is much to relieve

the gloom of this picture. The world, on the whole, is recovering from the fearful shock of the great

. war. The nations, victor and van­quished, have gone a long vvay on the road toward the resumption of their prewar production. Dismem­bered Austria is in an almost liopo- lesB condition but, with thac one ex­ception, Europe is well on the way to recovery. Hugh national debts, legacies of the war, will retard her recuperation hut cannot prevent it.

Int<*rnational Rclafioiis.Perhaps the most sinister portent

apparent is the reluctance of the great powers to abandon or modify the policies of greed and national aggrandisement that were responsible for the world war. Even Russia, with its incalculable potentialities o fresh disaster for mankind, is not such a menace to the wellbeing of humanity as the recrudescence of national .lealousies and natiional fetishes of dominance.

United States, for good or ill, Is definitely committed to a policy of non-interference in the internal ar­rangements of Europe. As far as can be Judged there will be no entry Into the League of Nations and It is possible that Senator Harding’s as­sociation of nations may resolve it­self into a pledge on the part of the United States that it cannot regard any future disputes threatening the peace of the world without grave concern. The leading European powers have refused to accept an International court of Justice whoso decisions shall be compulsory on the disputants, but sonje arrangement for the Judicial settlement of interna­tional disagreements may be evolved which will bring America Into direct council with the other nations of the eaith.

- The Race of Ammnients.•jis It Is there is grave danger of

a jfievival in the race of armaments, with the enormous growth of our merchant marine in recent years this country needs a navy second to none to protect the lanes of commerce and

freedom of the seas. Britain,

Jealous of her supremacy as mistress of the waves, is hesitating between retrenchment and a decisive bid for the rqtention of that supremacy. '.Vhile the British Admiralty is urg­ing a naval budget of $500,000,000 o.placj the question beyond possible

dispute, the ministry is striving for economy and a naval policy that will just suffice to keep England in the load.

Japan, while pleading poverty and disclaiming armament building, i; going ahead with both army and navy expansion. There is none o’ the three nations but will feel acutelv the burden of increased and unneces .sary armaments and Senator Borah’: proposal for an agreement to curtai future building is meeting with wid< approval in England and Japan a: well as here. The matter should no he impossible of adjustment. Prior ti the war. Great Britain built agains' any possible combination of two pow ers and should not therefore hav any objection to the desire of th- United States to have a navy a strong as the strongest.

South Amcrienn Neighbors.Tlio California land dispute witl

Japan appears to lie in process o' amicable settlement, but the lines o the solution are still indefinite and as far as indicated will involve dip lomatic arrangements witli England and her colonies.

There i.s a disposition in sonv quarters to discredit Secretary o: State Colby’s trip to South Americ:'. where he has received a warm wel come both as a representative o; President Wilson and as a citizen o!' the United States. The visit of ai official of his standing to Soutli American countries cannot but prove immensely advantageous to that principle of pan-Americanism which t'fie events of the great war showed to he an accepted and determinan: doctrine in the foreign policies o! those nations as it is in our own Their complete and cordial accept ance of the Monroe Doctrine is ; proof of the friendship they now fee" toward the United States, a friend ship that is not aided by decrying Mr. Colby or his mission. The re cent announcement of our contem plated withdrawal from San Doming, will help an accord which has growi in strength surprisingly in recen’ yocirs and has become an asset of thr United States not to be lightly do spised nor foolishly jeopardized.

On the whole, we can look abroad with confidence and with sound ex pectation ,of a betternient in our world relations. Mr. Harding’s course, whatever it may be, will be in the direction of the perpetuation and preservation of world peace.

Bright Outlook at Home.At home, leading men of the na­

tion are of opinion that the outlook for 19 21 is bright, despite the pres­ent depression. “ The slipping has stopped,’ ’ says Will H. Hays. The big bankers of the country declare that the turn of the tide in the liq­uidation of prices and of credits is very near and that an early reccA'ery of business and industry may be ex­pected. They warn, liow'ever, that before a clean slate can be obtained upon M'hich a new and greater pros­perity is destined to be writtei wagas and prices must come down te correspond with the fall that has taken place in farm product.s. The more such a decline in wages ami prices is resisted the longer will hi the waiting for the new era of pros­perity.

The Wage Question.In many branchc.s of industry tlic

workers have taken the initiative and suggested wage reductions. In other sections wages have been reduced by the employers. The unions are re­sisting strenuously any reduction o: the inflated war wages and nuisi shoulder part of the blame for th. continuance of the depression. They are also committed to the principle of hindering production by limiting the output of their individual mem­bers to that of the least skilled.

Such policy in the end is ruinous There h^s been enormous under-pro­duction during the war. There has been huge waste of capital. The world is suffering seriously today from want of production and any liin- drancG, whether from capitalist o’ worker, is ruinous. Profits and wages must both come from produc­tion and sabotage lu production must, in the end, decrease both.

Trade Conditions.Tlie capitalist and Ijhe manufac­

turer have been endeavoring to maintain the prices of war time as the workers have been trying to keep up the inflated wages. To that end output 'has been restricted by the shut;tlng down of mills and factories. There is an improvement evident re­cently both In the reopening of- plants and in the continued cutting of prices.

The retailer, however, has not in general reduced prices as much as he should have done. The prices of many commodities are still too high. Judge Gary of the United States Stbel Corporation has no hesitation in stating that in somb instances they are extortionate. Merchants and

manufacturers who took big and sometimes enormous profits on the rise are now reluctant to accept losses, bul until they do the iwiyers will remain shy and industry stag­nant. The result is unemployment and deadlock.

Needless UncmplojTncnt.There are 300,000 unemployed ir,

France today. There are 2,000,000 m England. There are aljout the ;ame number in this country. It if he one serious proposition we ha'” .0 face and it will disappear lik nagic when industry begins to re /ive. There is enough building ant; ;onstruction work alone crying to b' lone in this country right now t. nakc all the labor obtainable em ilcyed at full time and more beside Che ciiange will be quickly .appareu IS soon as the revival begins aiii he consensus of the leading linan- ;ial, industrial and business export s that the tide of depre.s.sion is neai ta turn. That is the best message ti Vmeric.ins on New Year’s Day, 1921

Co-opcral ion Neccs.savy.But that tide can be kept ebhin.r

nstoad of flowing unle.ss the em ployer, the worker and the mercliar.; lo their share, as indicated above, o he work of stabilizing prices am vages. There are plenty of Cassan Iras and Jeremiahs in the country to lay gloomily prophesying an indus rial war in 1921. Samuel Gompen 3 one of them. His New Year’; •flgliting’’ message to labor is not i; he best interests of the worker an s not calculated to further industria peace and national prosperity.

The watchword for 1921 should h; co-operation among .ill American:' We have financial and natural re sources beyond compare; w’e arc possessed of the spirit and determina­tion to overcome obstacles. It woulci be the pity of tlie ages if we squan dered our unexampled possessions o' wealth and character in fightin;. amon^ each other in a barbarom fashion that can be but productive o 5rave losses in the end.

^Saturday Nigh^,. . . ' - --- -• —•. HI ■ StM > MU ■ •

As a sidelight on the organiza­tion required for the publication and distribution of even a small daily paper like the Evening Herald it is a fact that not far from 100 newsboys and carriers are em­ployed every afternoon in distribut­ing the papers to homes of readers .nd in selling it on the streets. .Ninety-seven were checked into the hrcle theater last night and at that i few were unavoidably detained at lome. We must admit that we were ;omev/liat surprised ourselves at lie number. Some, of the boys who eceive a large bundle of papers at lificrent trolley stations divide their luota among other boys' ■who help ;hem cover their field.

The “ newsies’ ’ are energetic lit- le chaps and their daily work in

.he open air, regardless of weather, leeras to agree with them. The ^raining they get in punctuality and •egularity and in handling money is if positive value to them in after ife. It was a real pleasure to th niblishers of the Evening Herald to iieet all their boys and to give them in enjoyable evening. There isn’t a .finer set of newsboys anywhere. We '.re planning to make this holiday rcat an annual event.

When the Herald ■was made a daily, six years ago, there was dif­ficulty in obtaining newsboys who would raise their voices. At first .hey would steal timidly along the streets 'Hfith a small bundle of Her- ilds under t|heir arms apparently ifraid to “ brace” a customer. Now they have lost their timidity. No one who heard that bunch of boys going down Main street last night would suspect them of vocal weak­ness.

LIRUOR RAIDS ONCHICAGO RESTAURANTS

Chicago, Jan. 1.— Scattering raids on several restaurants and cabaretr suspected of adding to New Year’s Jjllarity by the distribution of liquor marked the advent of 1921 among Chicago’s New Year’s celebrants. A few arrests were made and a small quantity of liquor seized.

Tlie ora­torio was given by the mass chorus In the Town hall , Rockville one light and in Cheney hall the follow­ing night. The orchestra which ac­companied the chorus was made up of 3 5 musicians from the Boston Symphony orchestra and the vocal soloists were selected from the best iif the country. Every one of the 600 seats in Cheney hall was sold for a dollar. The seating capacity of the hall was curtailed by the en­largement of the stag^, made neces­sary to accommodate nearly 200 performers.

The cost of the two productions was over $1200 and the receipts, vugmented by those from an instru- raental matinee concert given by the orchestra in Cheney hall, cov- 'red the expenses.

RROSLECTOR IS RICHAT IjAST b y LEGACY

Helena, Mont. — Frank Lamy, fifty-five, one of the picturesque prospectors of Montana, who has searched in vain for many years fo r ! gold and rich ores, has discovered a ' fortune in a big legacy awaiting him: instead. All he has to do to collect I between $30,000 and $40,000 is to go to Menominee, Mich, renew his acquaintance with old friends and relatives, prove his birthright and a wait. tiio. decree of the court. Ho inaY. newspapei's of this cltV'for torgiiig the connecting link be­tween him and his legacy.

For years ho was given up as lost by relatives. When a brother Menominee, Mich., died he left Frank Lamy the greater share of his estate. Relatives then started the search. They 'finally resorted to newspaper advertising. • Within t'welve hours after the first adver­tisement and news story in conjunc­tion appeared in Helena newspapers Lamy was found.

He is living in the little and far from the railroad town of Hughes- villc, in the newly created county of Judith Basin, near Monarch and Nie- hart, two famous old silver camps.

C. G. Carter, of No. 409 North Rodney s^eet, Helena, read the story and the advertisement. He notified the paper that he knew Lamy well and had seen him only a few weeks ago and that Lamy has been living in Hughesville, now nearly a "ghost” town of the West. A few weeks ago Lamy finished earning his winter grubstake by working in the old “ Block P.” mine at Hughesville, the property of T. C. Power, Montana millionaire, resident of Helena, who In the early days ran a-steamboat line under the "Block P.” flag from St. Louis up the Missouri to Fort Benton.

Friends have notified Lamy of the fortune awaiting him. The estate couldn’t be distributed until Lamy was found.

Colorado Springs, Colo.,— A shattered romance that had its end- in the divorce courts has led Mrs. Juliana Charlotte Desmond, formerly of Toledo, Ohio, to seek seclusion in a desolate spot on Pike’s Peak.

Alone, with her Russian v,'olf- hound and a cat, three miles from the nearest house, Mrs. Desmond lives in her cabin, venturing into civilized surroundings only when her ratioiW' are depleted. t

Fifom a poihf near the sumn^w Pike’s Peak her cabin can be seen, a large American flag waving in the iireezes.

Mountain lions, wildcat. and the huge mountain rats have no terror! for tlie woman recluse, a high-power-^ ed rifle being one of her possessions I — and rumor says she lias the ability to use it. One lion skin graces lier combination dining-room, kitchen and living room.

Domestic trouliles that brought a nervous breakdown, a divorce and her desire for the solitude of the mountains are said to be responsible for Mrs. Desmond choosing one of the loneliest spots in the Rockies— a de­serted m.iner’s cabin perched in the rocks southwest of Pike’s Peak— as lier hermitage.

According to stray hits of infor­mation gleaned concerning the occil- pant of the secluded cabin, Mrs. Des- monef secured sutficient funds in an alimony settlement to enable her to live comfortably.

For many years the town had the reputation of being the richest city in the world for her population, and homes of millionaires on three streets continue to crowd out each other’s view of the sur­rounding bills.

Helena’s latest indication of being able to pay Is to give the County Treasurer $727,000 In taxes for all purposes from a population of 12,087 for the city and as much again for the entire county.

Vegetables Necessary Part o f Meals Throughout Year

No W ay of TellingIf Flu W ill Return

u. S. Public Health Service Issued Bulletin Tellbig of Results

of Study.Vegetables are just as necessary a

part of the daily meal as bread, if the body is to be kept strong and healthy. Housekeepers sometimes fotget this in winter when fresh vegetables are hard to get and the fa.mily is tired of all the kinds on hand. Too often the diet is allow­ed to become one of the meat-bread- and-potato type, which does not give children all the things they need to make them grow and develop nor­mally, and which is unsatisfactory for adults as well. It needs to be supplemented by plenty of milk, eggs and other vegetables besides pota­toes.The Cause of That “ Tired Feeling.”

“ Spring fever,” or the tired-out feeling that comes at the end of win­ter nutrition experts lay to the lack of sufficient fruits and vegetables in the winter diet. Certain it is that many persons have an unusual crav­ing for "greens” in the spring which they probably would not have if meals during the winter included an abundance of vegetables, and when vegetables and fruits are entirely lacking in the late winter, as in some northern states, severe illness is often noted.

Preparing the familiar kinds of vegetables in more appetizing ways that are perhaps new to the family and teaching the children to eat kinds that they are prejudiced against are at least two ways in which the housekeeper can solve her problem of what to have for dinner in winter.

Moreover, many persons make the mistake of cooking vegetables too long. This makes those with deli­cate flavors tasteless, develops strong flavors too much, destroys the agree­able texture of some, causes others to lose their attractive coloring, and in most cases cooks out too large a proportion of the mineral salts, one thing which makes vegetables especially valuable as food. If the strong ones, such as onions, are cooked In a rather large quantity of water' in an uncovered vessel, theV will "have a more delicate flavor. The following ways of cooking some

ir,httter vegetables-are recom­mended by home- economics special­ists of the United States Department of Agriculture.

the winter vegetables, and also one of the richest in calcium (lime) and iron, substances that every one needs to keep the body in good working order. It should be boiled only 20 to 30 minutes, in salted water. It may then be seasoned with salt, pepper, and butter or cream; or, scalloped with cheese, it makes substantial dish, suitable for the main dish at lunch or supper.

Scalloped Cabbage and Cheese.1-2 medium-sized cabbage.2 tablespoons butter or other fat.2 tablespoons flour.1 cup milk.1-2 teaspoon salt.Pepper as desired.3-4 cup grated cheese."Wash the cabbage thoroughly, put

it into boiling salted, water, and cook for 20 or 30 minutes. Drain it, and keep the water in which it has been cooked for use in soup, if desired. Make a white sauce from the butter, flour, milk, salt, and pep­per, and stir into it the grated cheese. In a greased baking-dish place alternate layers of the cabbage and sauce, cover the top with bread crumbs that have been combined with a little'melted butter or otherfat, and bake for 15 minutes, or■until the crumbs are browned.

Onions are another rich source of body-building mineral substances. To suit most persons they, too, need to be cooked in such a way that their flavor becomes milder rather than stronger. Here is a recipe for an appetizing soup, easy to make and so hearty that, with a substan­tial dessert and plenty of bread and butter, it will be enough for lunch­eon or supper.

Onion Soup Without Meat.1 large onion.1 1-2 tablespoons butter or other

fat.1 1-2 pints milk, half water and

half milk, or water alone.Salt and peppdr as desired.Peel the onion under water to

prevent the volatile substance from getting into the eyes, cut it into small pieces and cook it slowly and carefully in the fat. When the onion is tender increase the heat and browp the onion, stirring it all the time to prevent burning. Add the milk or other liquid and seasoning, bring the soup to the boil, and serve

Cabbage has long been a winter poured over a piece of toasted bread, standby^ but many persons do not if desired, especially if no milk is like it because it is often cooked un- used, sprinkle the toast generously til it is a limp, colorless mass. It with grated Swiss or American is generally one of the cheapest of cheese.

BIG BOXING YEAREXPECTED IN 1921

New York City Wfll Witness Many Attractive Matches in Eai-ly Months.

New York, Jan. 1.— Pugilistic champions need not pine for action as long as Tex Rickard is in the pro­moting business here.

Since he acquired Madison Square Garden, the premier promoter has staged three title bouts and he plans many more for this year.

“ Nineteen twenty-one should be the biggest year boxing has seen in many a day,” said Rickard, discuss­ing his plans today.

“ Frequent bouts for .the various championships over the decision route keep interest up and as long as boxers are not over matched and the game is conducted within the law, it will continue to flourish.

“ I am planning a number of cham­pionship bouts and some elimination contests for the new year. I hope to match Johnny Kilbane, tli# feath­erweight champion, with one of the topnotchers of his class.

York since it was returned to good graces, the best boxers in the coun­try are flocking into town. The metropolis has become a mecca for them.

Leonard and Mitchell will box for the benefit of the fund to restore devastated sections of France.

Auckland, N. Z., Jan. 1.— The Americans made a clean sweep of the Davis Cup tennis matches, taking the final two singles today.

William M. Johnston, the flashy Californian, downed Norman E. Brookes in a four-set match, and William T. Tilden, II, the American champion, took the measure of Ger­ald F. Patterson. The latter match also was a four-set affair.

The fact that the Americans had clinched the Davis Cup by their vic­tory in the doubles yesterday, did not affect their playing today. They

Last Night’s Dreams—What They Mean

Washington, D. C., Jan. 1.— “ There is absolutely no way of definitely foretelling whether this winter will witness any recurrence of influenza in epidemic form,” said Surgeon General H. S. Gumming, of the U. S. Public Heaith Service.” As a result, however, of very care­ful analyses of the epidemiology of influenza, especially as the result of intensive studies in homes where in­fluenza occurred in 1918 and 1919, it may be stated that an attack of influenza appears to confer a definite immunity to subsequent attacks; an immunity lasting for several years. Inasmuch as the epidemic of 1918 and 1919 affected so very large a proportion of the population, there would seem to be reasonable grounds for believing that even should “ Flu” become prevalent here and there, it would not assume the epidemic pro­portions of the past two years, nor would it rage in such severe form.

“ It is unfortunate that the public becomes so intensely interested in

.speCjtacular epidemic outbreaks of disease and is so little moved by the daily occurrence of many preventable deaths in all parts of the countrj Of the one and one-quarter million deaths occurring in the United States annually, at least 100,000 could eas­ily be prevented by the application of available medical knowledge. For example one of the disea%es which becomes prevalent about this time of the year is diphtheria. This disease is responsible for about 15,- 000 deaths in the United States an­nually. Practically every one of these deaths could be prevented, for not only, have we an effective anti­toxin for treating the disease when it occurs, but what is still more im portant, we are now able by means of a simple skin test to determine which children are susceptible to diphtheria, and, this ascertained, we can effectively immunize them so as to protect them against this disease.

“ The 10,000 or more deaths from typhoid fever that occur annually in the United States could also be largely prevented if communities everywhere would make certain that their water and milk supplies were protectedV and it simple precautions were taken in homes where typhoid fever occurs. It is encouraging to know that smallpox has been so well controlled that at present the aver­age deaths from it in the United States number only 400 annually. Nevertheless, these 400 deaths are entirely unnecessary, for vaccination has long shown itself an effective- means of control.”

In almost every comniunity in the country the wastage in infant lives is still enormous, especially when contrasted with that in New Zealand, for example, wheref the death rate is only 50 per thousand births in the first year of life as against 100 in the United States.

Commenting on this. Surgeon Gen- 'i'ral Gumming said; “ The expense of life saving through the prevention and control of disease by well- directed health measures is very small indeed when contrasted with the saving effected. I would strongly urge the people of this country to recognize the fact that expenditures in this direction consti­tute the most profitable form of in­vestment. Effective measures of health conservation constitute a most urgent need of this reconstruction period.”

DREAM C ITIES .

IT IS not an uncommon.experience to find ourselves In a dream city.

Perhaps it is one which we recognlaie though it may be changed by the dream phantasmagoria; familiar build­ings may take on a strange aspect, or strange city buildings appear in un­expected places. Sometimes we rec­ognize it as a city we have always wanted to, see and never have seen; and sometimes it appears to be - one of which we never haVe even heard. Not Infrequently a name for the place Is suggested in our dream—a name which we are sure is new to us. It Is a cheap way to travel and, the mystics say, not a bad one. For, while, to visit cities in the waking life is an expensive operation, to travel to the cities of dreams is ac­counted a most favorable omen and means riches ahead. Unless indeed the city be on fire; then take care of your finances or poverty will overtake you.

It is generally agreed that if your city of dreams Is a strange one to you, and you are lost In It, you will shortly change your residence with, as a rule, favorable results to your business.

All scientists do not agree with Freud that every dream is the fulfill­ment of a wish, but it is easy enough to fit this dream Into its category. An analysis of our dream will generally enable us to discover the origin of the strange name propounded by our dream—consciousness for the strange city In which we may find ourselves. Thus Freund dreams of being at a strange place called Flelsa and one further on named Hearsing. Flelss was the name of a friend. Hearsing was put together from the names of places near 'Vienna which so often end In “Ing” and the English word “hear­say.” He had been reading a poem about a slanderous dwarf named “Saldhe Hashesald.” By connecting the final syllable of Hearsing with Fllssa was obtained Vlisslngen—the German V pronounced life F—the Ger­man name for the port of Flushing through which his brother passed in coming from England to visit him.

BBQUEST TO OLD CATS’ HOME LIES IDLE IN DETROIT BANK

r f o t i s s i

Detroit, Mich.— For fifteen years a fund has been lying idle in the De­troit Trust Gompany.

Like a snow ball rolling down hill it has grown larger and larger, ow­ing to the accrued interest.

It now amounts to $3,807.72.It’s all over a cat— and the bank

is worried.They have gone to court about it

— the money.Mrs. Dora I. Rathbun died Novem­

ber 18, 1907. Her will filed for pro­bate January 13, 1908, left $3,500 to the “ Detroit Gat Glub and Shelter Home Association.”

Joseph L. Hudson and Frank T. Scherer were named as executors. After the last legal formalities they began to look for the cat home named in Mrs. Rathbun’s will. None existed. They searched the old directories. They looked high and low. No such organization had ever been incorporated.

The Detroit Trust Gompany had been named trustee and the money was left in its care. ^ v

At last a representative of the mmpany has appeared before Judge Mdward Gomniand, of Probate Gourt.

“ What shall we do with this money?” he asked.

Judge Gommand commented cou- liously about persons who would draw wills providing funds for cats when there is so much distress among human beings.

“ Think of the mental attitude of inyone who would set out to safe­guard some old tabby cat and ignore the suffering of some poor child right next door,” he said.

Judge Gommand withheld his de­cision as to what disposition to make of the money.

New York, Jan. 1.— A new and prosperous era in baseball is pre­dicted by President John A. Heydler, of the National League, in a state­ment given out today. He said:

“ The year 1921 will mark the be­ginning of a new era in baseball. Early this year, all difficulties be­tween the great major organizations and the minor leagues will be har­monized; the semi-public tribunal, with Judge Landis directing, will be­gin to function and the national game will take on new life and vigor,”

WILL UTILIZE TIDES FORPOWER PLANTS IN ENGLAND

London.— 7'he greatest waterpower undertaking in the world, gen- (irating about 500,000 electrical Uorse-pOwer per day at a cost of one cent per unit, is foreshadowed by the scheme for harnessing the tides of the River Severn.

The project has been worked out by the Ministry of Transport and although it has met with some oppo­sition in certain quarters it seems likely that it will be carried through, if only on account of the large num­ber of unemployed' it 'Will give' ivork to. • ‘

The necessity for increased rail­way communication between South Wales and other parts of Great Brit­ain has been felt for some time This need will be met by the present proposal and, in addition, a level road'will be provided over the River Severn for vehicular traffic, thus obviating the present detour of fifty miles.

It is estimated that by utilizing the power of the tides at least three million tons of coal a year will be saved and a large amount of cheap power will be available for industrial purposes.

ALMSHOUSE INMATE.TO INHERIT $4,000

Detroit.— Because Caroline Lena Busch worked vigorously over the washtub, Frederick Witzka will not..J stay in the Eloise almshouse.

Witzka, seventy years old, for ten years an inmate of Eloise, will in­herit the estate of the washerwoman who through years of toiling, saved $4,000. She was Witzka’s half- sister.

Judge Command of Probate Court, today appointed the Union Trust Company guardian of Witzka and administrator of the estate, despite pleas of Frank Furstow, 344 Lawton avenue, a nephew of the old man, who volunteered to look after the money.

Furstow admitted that his affec­tion for his uncle had never been potent enough to cause him to visit Witzka in the almshouse.

AYOUNG FITZSlMMi^S NO FIGHTER

V

/5t

Bob Fitzsimmons, Jr., will never fill tlie boots of Ills distinguished daddy as a boxer. Efforts of a few money-snatching managers to put Bob, Jr., forth

as championship hope within the last few years have ended In dismal fa il­ure. The lad’s last "coming out” af­fair was pulled off down In Newark, N. J., after the boy was discharged from the army. Jle made a fair show­ing with his opponeTil—that was all.

While stationed at Camp Dix, New Jersey, young Fitz boxed with tlie sol­diers and appeared in exhibitions there; so when he was released from service more than one manager be­lieved he could lie turned into a fight­er of the stripe that made his father famous.

To those who knew Bob in his boyhood days when he resided at Dunellen, N. J., the turn of events was no surprise. Young Bob was a modest cliap and detested the word “prizefighter.” He loved to roam about the fields, fish in old Stony brook, catch butterllies and kill snakes, and play the games with the village boys. All this was only a dozen of years ago when old Bob’s fame was slipping away from him.

Fight was not in young Bob. Even the little scraps that are common among boys, Bob, Jr., was never mixed

up in them. The nearest to a scrap he got into was in a football game, when he played on the Dunellen boys’ eleven against an eleven of a neighboring vil­lage. When the Dunellen team emerged from the first half by a good lead It became breezed among the players on the rival team that the "big feller” who played center was “young Bob Fitzsimmons” and that he was going to “clean up” in the final half (there were only two periods in a game in those days). That w'ns sufficient to scare Dunelien's rivals, and they refused to go on when the wdiistle blew for the second half.

Young Bob was also a Sunday school boy. He bowled and played ball on the Sunday school teams. In his studies in the day school he was no wizard, but he held his own. He didn’t love school any more than the ordi­nary boy. He liked to be with the crowd and despite the popularity of his father he w'as one of the most modest chaps in the village.

So, yoimg Bob was never cut out for a fighter. He did not like the game. He disliked it. It wmsn’t born into him. That's why Bob Fitzsimmons did not emulate his famous father.

However, with all the strengtli of his will he is helping us in his hard light liack to health. He is not yet well enough to see visitors.

“Conditions are becoming most favorable. It has been a hard fight, and the doctor now says he will win it. ' I think it has been worse than most peo­ple realize.

The suggestion recently advanced by Percy D. Haughton, |ojpiOT football coatdi, that a forward pass blocked behind the line "Sf

subject to recovery -by the team, has not been met witb favor many coaches.

^Villiam H. (Big B ill) B d w a i^ former Princeton captain, said: they keep on changing the ruteie will kill the game.”

^ • “Chick” Mehan, Syracuse cqa<^(;declared that the suggestion, If adopt

“Buck” O’Neil, Cblumbla c o a ^ ' 1 said such a grounded pass would eauw '' a lively scramble ta •which p la y ^ " ' would be more liable to Injury. .

Bob Folwell, head coach of .fba.' navy, said he had not given the much thought, but he believed It worth while considering. v

“ Instead of haying an incomplete , forward pass revert to the team which started the play, make a forward paiM blocke<l behind the throwers’ lin^ 6i' scrimmagp subject to recovery by‘,Ot)j! ‘ ponents vinder tlie same conditions

a blocked kick,” is Haughton’s idea for improving the game. i" I f you allow the blocked forward pass,to be recovered behind the llDe.(tf u

scrimmage, as is a blocked kick, you force the offense to protect the thrower ju.st as it must protect the kicker,” said Haughton. “ Instead of hhvifig five men eligible to receive a pass, and in a dangerous position, you will have only three, possibly two.

“Why restrict the forward pass? It is not football, and gradually the game will stray further away from tlie fundamental aspects and become a ' combination of basketball and baseball.”

RABBIT PUTS ARBITER m BAD WITH PLAYERS

During a baseball game in the Noryifood K>.) inda&ti^al league,: a :^bbit caused much hilartty and a new baseball ruling that must stand as a precedent.

In the eighth Inning of a hard contest between an adding ma­chine company’s team and a sash and door company’s club the rabbit jumped out from be­neath the grand, stand and start­ed Idppitj'-hop across the dia­mond. The players of the sash and door club who were in the field with a wild cry started in pursuit of Br’er rabbit.

During all the excitement, a baserunner for the opposing team hoofed it for borne and scored. A tempestuous scene followed. The sash and door club claimed that time should luive been called by the umpire. Arbiter Cooker ruled thus: ‘Tt Is the umpire’s sole right to call time In any game. The players had no right to chase the rab­bit unless said chase was sanc­tioned by the umpire. The run counts.”

Del Howard, manager of Oakland, Cab, team, tells of the freakiest play nuat ba.s happened in the Coast league this season.

The Oaks wore playing Seattle on the larter's field. C'asej’ was umpir- i'Ug the bases and Jimmy Toman han­dled (bo b.nlls and strikes. !

Jack Knight of the Oaks was on first base when Pop Arlett hit a fly to left center. Bill Stnmpf made a .g'reat catch of it. Knight, who thought Stumpf couldn’t get near the ball, I'.ad passed third base.

Stumpf tluanv to Kenworthy and the l.all went through Ids liands, passing by several other Seattle plaj’ers. It I'.it the bats in front of the Oakland bench and was picked up and thrown to second before Knight could return.

Umpire Casey ruled him out. Then Del Howard claimed the runner should ; score, as the ground rules allowed the ! plan to advance if the ball hit the pinj'ers’ dugout or_ bats, . i

P U N E DROPS BALLA novel kickoff was witnessed

at an international football match which took place In VI- enna recently between Aqatrla and Hungary.

Both teams were lined up, ready for the start, but it was noticed they had no ball. An airplane, however, sud^nly ap­peared on the horizon, hovered over the playing field for a short, time, and then, to the huge de­light of some 50,(XK) onlookers, slowly glided down until It was 50 feet above the center. Then the pilot dropped a football, and as soon as the ball touched the ground the referee’s whistle sounded and the match was on.

Having got rid of its bomb, the airplane mounted again and made off amid the cheers and laughter of the crowd.

3ive Farewell Party to Frank D. Cheney

Af>out Sixty Gather at Turkey Din- ^ner-—Capt. Staye Acts as Toast- linaster.

Ink 8hiai

About 60 of the overseers of the Dyeing and Finishing mills together wftih the Time Study department demonstrated pretty conclusively that team work is just as effective in start- in g a real live party as it is in mak-

f silk when they gathered in Cheney Thursday evening to give their

chief, Frank D. Cheney a rousing seitid off.

A real turkey dinner was the back- grdund for the speech making of the evening, ably directed by Captain Staye as toastmaster. After Mr. Mor­gan and “ Bill” Dougan had told a feW stories of the “ Good Old Days” anid Horace Cheney had spoken of thi'e development of team work in

the plant during the past 12months, the toastma^er extended to Pr*ank D. Cheney the best wishes of those present together with the m ^t substantial remembrances.

In response, Frank D. Chepey ex- prebsed his appreciation of the paVty. He said that “ There had be*en greater developments in the line of co-operation in the last 12 m&nths than ip all the other 19 y^'rs combined that he had been in the plant.”

The crowd then adjourned to the main hall where, to judge from the sotinds which issued forth, games wi^e entered into with real spirit.

Everybody is now looking for­ward to Frank D. Cheney’s return la'brder to have an excuse for an­other party.

It is safe to say Cheney Hall was never filled with a merrier crowd than last night at the New Year’s Eve movie dance. Five hundred people crowded the hall to its capa­city, and danced the Old Year away and welcomed the New Year in.

From the movies to the very last dance the evening was a success. “ The Inner Voice,” featuring E. K. Lincoln, was a clean cut story por­traying the happiness of a simple life contrasted wiUi the power of money and revenge. It was one of the best features shown here.

After the movies, refreshments were served' and the hall was cleared for dancing. An eight-piece orches­tra played to the satisfaction of all the dancers. At 11:30, the girls were reminded that this would he their last leap year dance and-it Avas up to them to take advantage of it. The girls played up to their part all right and made the next dance one of the most popular of the evening.

Just at 12 when the dancing was at its height a shower of balloons and horns came down from the bal­cony and streamers of all colors caught the dancers in a tangled paper web. So old 1920 was usher­ed out with a bang and 1921 was greeted with cheers and the blowing of horns.

Much credit of the evenin.g’s suc­cess goes to the committees of the Men’s and Girls’ Athletic Associa­tions under whose auspices the pro­gram was given.

MODERN REVELATIONS.The proof of the drinking is too

often in the post-mortem.

(© . 1920. by M cClure N ew spaper Syndicate.)“Thank goodness, the whole thing

will be done quietly,” Mrs. Francis Tal- fourd mumured to herself as she stood watching the noonday crowd pouring Into the subway. Her gown of gray, clinging material, with Its wide, child­ish collar of delicate, white lace seemed strangely out of place among the smart tailored suits of the working girls hurrying past. A gray velvet hat with a single ornament of twisted sil­ver ribbon fitted closely over her colled brown hair. No, there would be no disgusting publicity.

Somewhere a clock struck the half- hour. Mrs. Talfourd became impatient Strange, Francis was late. He had In­sisted that she should meet him there and that they should go together on the- subway. How much easier to have called for him at the office with her little electric!

In spite of herself she began to think about the first time she had seen Francis. Then he had been a secre­tary in her father’s office. She re­membered his straight shoulders and the peculiar habit he had of becoming quite red when one looked at him. How different from the young men who flitted about the fashionable ho­tels and drove long, low-seated road­sters I

She remembered how curiously happy she had been the day he timidly invited her to a concert. How proud she felt, proud of his erect bearing, his energetic manner of speaking and his flashing smile. Then, too, the night she had given up a dance to go to walk with him, and he had told her that he loved her.

Mrs. Talfourd caught her breath has­tily. She must not think of such things. One should not think of such things when one was going to a law­yer’s to get a divorce. She must re­member how Impossible It was for them to live happily together. She could not go without the things she had always been accustomed to. For tAvo dreadful months she had llA-ed within Francis’ salary, denying her- belf all the expensive luxuries she loved so much. Then her father had died and she had slowly drifted back into the old way. Why should she not spend her father’s money? He had worked all his life that his only daugh­ter might have everything. Yet Fran­cis wanted her to live upon his salary alone. Ridiculous! There had been quarrels, rather bad quarrels, and now she was waiting for Francis at the sub­way entrance. A - clock struck one.

A tired-looking man separated him­self from the crowd and came hastily tovvard her. His well-fitting suit was tvom and blS'cuffs were frayed..

“ Sorry, Blanche,’’ he said briskly. “There was a little extra work that had to be finished. However, this Is the last time TU keep you Svalting, you know.”

As they went dOAvn Into the subway she began to open her beaded bag. “ I pay my wife’s fare," he said grimly, and the lines about his mouth hard­ened noticeably.

They entered the car and found a seat In silence. Mrs. Talfourd looked straight before her. Stations flashed by, spots of light and color, nothing more. The crowds ebbed and flowed.

Suddenly the car stopped. There was no station. They must be under the river. Mrs. Talfourd sighed with fellef. It was probably waiting for an­other car to pass. Then the lights wont out. Mrs. Talfourd had been afraid of the dark ever since she Avas a Avee tot, who clung In terror to her governess’ hands as they went through the dark hall Into the brilliantly light­ed nursery. Now she shivered a lit­tle In the darkness and touched Fran­cis’ sleeve gently to make sure he was still there.

His voice rang out clearly above the others: "We will be going In a few minutes. The car often stops like this.”

Mrs. Talfourd was reminded of the first month of their marriage, when she cooked for Frtincls In a four-room apartment. Hoav happy Francis had been, no matter how disgracefully the dinner turned out 1 Something startled her from her thoughts, the low moans of a frightened woman. In the deadly stillness that followed there was a loAv, dripping sound. Mrs. Talfourd clenched her hands and began to count the drops In a stupid way. Now there Avas the .sound of ruhnlng water, no longer drops. It was the river. The car would soon be flooded. ^

“Franbls,” she whispered. Her throat was strangely dry.

“Y€^ dear,” he said softly, and she felt his arm close tight about her. Not a ray of light penetrated the dark­ness, only that maddening trickling. On the other side of the car a man Avas praying In a husky voice and a woman was sobbing.

“Dear.” It was months since she had said that word. “Dear,” she whis­pered again, and she felt his breath against ner cheek. In that Instant of happiness she forgot that she would soon die. In that same moment the car was flooded, not with water, but with dazzling light, and again they were rattling noisily through the tun­nel.

Blindly they left the car. Mrs. Tal­fourd, still clinging to her husband’s arm, found herself in the street filled with sunshine. The crowds surged by unnoticed.

“ Francis,” sbe murmured, flushing In confusion. “Do you suppose if avo

“ An’ the north end kids, dey came OA'er to the north office and dere they met Mister Holmes so he tooked dero over to the south office. Hully. Gee! Avot a bunch o ’ kids was dere. The whole Oak street looked filled to d’ brim and dey Avas all shoutin’ and yellin’ and you’d tink every kid in town was dere and you’d never tink all dose kids sold Evening Heralds.I never did anyways but I guess dey did for dey all Aveared badges and Avas all dressed up and dey all wanted to be foist in line except me for I was •I good boy and stayed where I was told. You knoAV m’ raudder always telled mo to be good so I Avas and I didn’t push or shuv er bit and stayed iast and all the bad boys acted dred ful. An’ den aa'c met Mister Ela add bo tooked us on a parade up Oak street to Main and dey all was shoutin’ like crazy Injuns but I avu.z a good boy and kept nice and quiet and stayed last. An’ den we marched up Main to Birch. An’ den we turned aiound and marched back and dey all A\ as yellin’ like mad. An’ I kept quiet because I was a good little boy and stayed in back and didn’t shuv or push like dose other bad kids . An’ den we got to d’ Circle and a-,'o all Avent in and saAved a dandy show. An’ den Mister Ela spoke to us and told us how he liked wot Av-e Avas doin’ . An’ den ho told us we should all he quiet and act like good boys and not shove and 'p-ush goin’ out and they AAOuld give us candy. And dey all shoved and rushed out to the door to get d’ candy. Dey was all so rougli and rdioved and tried to be foist. But I Avas a good boy and was not rough and stayed in hack and Aven it cams ■ to my turn DERE WAS NO CANDY ; FER ME. KIN YOU BEAT DAT?” i

That was how one of the ■ Youngsters described “ Herald Night” at the Circle last evening. It is given in his own words and is a good description of what occured when ever 100 newsies saAV the show at the Circle as the guests of The Evening Herald.

The newsboys from all parts of the town gathered at the South End office of the Herald. They were formed in line, marched to Main, along Main to Birch and then coun­termarched to Oak and the Circle Theater. While on Main street, the j youngsters surely did make the well j known welkin ring. “ Evening i Herald,” they shouted in their treble^ voices. One often hears one voice at a time along Main street but here Avere one hundred and they made lots of noise, but the kind-hearted policeman on the beat just smiled for he knew the, youngsters were^ having a good time. [

But as soon as the kiddies entered! the theater it was not a yelling, j jumping, shoving mob but an orderly j crowd. The boys walked quietly, to their seats and although at times they cheered during thrilling mo­ments in the pictures, few in the | audience knew that one hundred 1 newsboys, were in the theater. It! was only after the lights were turned on after the show that this was known to many who enjoyed the per­formance.

After the show, Elwood S. Ela, managing editor of The Evening Herald, made a brief speech to the youngsters. It was not a speech. It was a few kind words; words of appreciation given in a way the kids understood. They listened atten­tively.

After the talk, the boys filed out orderly to the doors where each was presented with a half-pound box of candy. And as the good little boy Avho tells the story said “ dere was no candy fer me.” It so happened that either three or four of the youngsters worked “ double-headers” or a miscount was made. At any rate there were three or four young­sters “ left,” but they were not for­gotten. They were taken to a nearby candy store and presented with a half-pound box of candy the same as the others.

All through this, boys are men­tioned as being the only ones pres­ent but there are newsgirls also who sell The Evening Herald and they were all there too, and, if anything, enjoyed the evening more than the boys.

What a Real Pearl Is.The real pearl—that is the fine,

spherical, Iridescent gem—Is not a product of the mother-of-pearl or nacre lining of the oyster shell, as are the baroeque and seed pearls, but Is form­ed In the gills and never grows In size. They begin as a small blister containing a hyaline fluid which con­denses slowly and gradually hardens in concentric layers. The Iridescence Is due to the minute films of air or gas that are contained between the layers.

Mica Indispensable.The main Importance of mica in

modern Industry lies In the fact that It Is one of the best nonconductors of electricity and is, therefore, Indis­pensable in electrical engineering. On this account the British government took over port of the mica field in India and worked It as a state in­dustry In order to make sure of hav­ing a constant supply.

1920, by MoCUire N ew spaper SySdlcaie.)Up on the avenue, in Wllliamstown’s

finest residence, an angry man strode from the dimly-lighted library into the reception room, impatiently snatched his coat from the wall, upsetting the telephone as he did so, and then tum ^ to an equally angry girl who had fol­lowed him out from the library.

DoAvn town in the stuffy telephone exchange a smile lighted the face of the tired operator as she noted that the light under 174 accompanied the buz­zing, and her hand instinctively start­ed the plug toAvard 256 as she called pleasantly Into the receiver.

But instead of hearing Beth Wil­liams’ voice calling the anticipated number, she was amazed to hear Don Emerson shout Avratlifully In a voice hardly recognizable as bis, so choked Avas It with rage and anger:

“Remember, Beth, this Is just what 1 have been ti*ylng’ to avoid, but since you have assumed such an absurd atti­tude I have no alternatlA'e left but to leaA’e you. Just remember I’m not the kind of a man to take a thing like this calmly, and If you ever want me, you’ll haA’e to send for me. I’ll not bother you. Believe me. I’ll not come around begging------”

“Certainly,” Interrupted Beth’s voice icily. “Don’t come until I send for you,” Then, meaningly, almost sarcas­tically, “Until I do!” And the little operator pictured the way the dark eyes looked across at Don Emerson, level, cold, even as her voice.

A door slammed violently; there was a little hush; then a heart-broken sob. With a start the little operator real­ized that she AA'as “ lislenlng In,” and slie broke the connection.

The days passed. At first the 174 line on the SAvltchboard lighted often, but the request ncA-er come for 256. But the little operator wasn’t deceived. She kncAv that the broken sob Avas far more significant of the true state of af­fairs than tlie hard, level voice, and so she waited for the 256 call.

As the days dragged into weeks, and the Aveeks into months. It worried the little operator to notice Beth’s pale, drawn face. Couldn’t Don see? H oav could a man be so obstinate when— But then one day she met Don looking as miserable and wretched as Beth her­self, and It was then that she decided to take matters Into her own hands.

After reaching this decision, the lit­tle operator seemed to take an unusual Interest In the lights of the 174 line, and to make sure that they were In good working order It often became necessary for her to, well—er, “listen 1ft.” She was rewarded one night when Beth '' 'a8 In conversation with Elalie Ellis., Immediately she called 2 ^ add

Don r^dhed the phone he heljM oniy the impersonal, “Hold the line, please,” The plugs dOAvn In the tele­phone exchange rapidly changed posi­tions, and then Don heard Elaine’s voice saying, “—and if he is going to be so unreasonable, I’d Just forget him,and Phil’s crazy about you------”

“Don’t talk such nonsense,” Beth’s voice Interrupted. “I’d rather stay at home than go with anybody else,” and tlieu something happened to the Avires, for Don heard no more. He had heard enough, hoAvever, to keep him thinking all that day and the next, and the fol­lowing night when Bill Chisholm called to persuade him to complete a four­some for the coming dance he was ready for him.

After thus thoroughly testing the lights of the 174 line the little opera­tor decided that the 256 line needed her attention, and so It happened that one night Beth also was asked to hold tlie line a minute. What she heard In 30 seconds was sufficient, however. Big Bill’s voice booming over the wire. “And dofilfr you know the best way to get her back is to make her think you ‘ don’t care. Just you appear at tliat dance Avlth another girl and Beth will be at your feet”

“Who wants his girl at his feet, I don’t,” snapped Don. “Not while I have arms! A av, you mean all right old man, but it’s different with me. Why, I’ve never even seen a girl ex­cept Beth, and “never will.” But Beth held the line no longer.

The night of the dance came, and the little opeartor sitting before the quiet board, thought of the two lonely people brooding alone up on the ave­nue Avhlle their friends made merry at the club house. Now, she decided, was the time for something more drastic than mixing the wires, so calling 256, In a voice as nearly like Beth’s as she could assume, she stammered tearful­ly, “Don, I—I—er,” and followed this enlightening remark by a heartbroken sob, the duplicate of Beth’s own on that first night Then she broke the connection.

In about three minutes she was re­warded by the sigh of Don’s car purr­ing toward the avenue.

At 11:30 that night a call came from the 256 line, and Avithout stopping to ask for the number wanted, the little operator connected with 174, then set­tled back In her chair and smiled hap­pily to herself as she thought of the good night message passing over the wires beneath her hands. .
