case of Alabaster Jordan, assistant treasurer.
Some four weeks since Brother Jordan found
his cash short by fifteen cents, or, rather the

pended pending an examination. Four days
since in changing his socks, the heart-broken
man found the missing money In his left heel

New York Letter to Boston Herald
Mrs. James Brown Potter Is said 10 have de-
termined not 10 appear again before the foot
lights, the result of the ungenerous unmanly,
uncalled for attacks that have been made upon
her In certain newspapers. This determination
is TO be regretted, from the fact that Mn.
Potters' participation In amateur theatricals
has done a great deal OF good, since a. has been
exercised in the cause deser wing charities. It
is, however, perfectly natural that a lady who
suddenly nnds herself the target for per
sonal attacks because she recites q poem 70
which only prurient prudes would object, should
not care 10 again expose herself TO wanton and
sensational paragraphing. AS she has never
thought OF exercising her talents and the pres
tige Of her name save as an amateur, and IN tho
cause Of charity, there Is no reason why she
should court questionable lotoriety. Ms.
Potter now yields up the scepter % any fn-
doInftable lady who may be willing 10 run suGh
risiKa.

The Gas Investigation.

10 the Editor of THE EVENING STAR:
Now that the Senate committee has decided
10 give citizens hearing on the subject of
cheaper and better gas, suggest that we have
a public meeting of citizens interested, to form
some kind OF an organization, and appoint a
committee to represent the citizens at the hear
ing.
Who will lead off in the matter? For one
the necessary time, and, it need be. money
tnopgh l see no need of any material expense
Ia the matter. Actio,s is what Is wanted, and at
once. Who responds? '-~ Nv
