The "Naked Truth,

New York Correspondence.
Society is very much aroused over the ap-
pearance of a certain well-known lady at
her box in the Metropolitan opera house the
other night. She wore her dress very low
in the neck, and with simple straps across
the shoulders. and the color Of her waist
material she got as near flesh tint as could
be found, so that at a little distance it was
impossible to see any dividing line. AS she
sat in her box the effect was startling, and
every opera glass in the house was leveled at
her. while the men in the audience who knew
her fastened, between the acts, as a COM
mittee of investigation TO see what it was
that she had on. or had of. The effect
produced by her dressing was exactly what
she wanted. and yet she is young woman,
q married woman, q mother, and not al i'm
modest woman. If man should accident
ally see her with the waist of her dress OF,
though she wore a high necked underwaist
she would be ready to faint; aud yet she
would sit in her box at the opera showing
as much OF her flesh as she dared, and with
the avowed intention of looking as though
she was undressed. don know what it is
that makes women do these things. unless il
is the love for social notouety. They seem
to want to do something to break the mo-
notony of ordinary social life, and rack
their poor brains for some novelty in dress,
OF some eccentricity that will make them
more talked about than their friends.

STRICKEN aLIND.
The Peculiar AffiicfiOn Affecting
Ladies OF EvansViile.
Special to the Globe.

SpeCld
EVANSVILLE. Ind. Feb. 2.-Several weeks
ago Miss Knickerbocker, a young lady at
tending the high school, met with very pc
culiar affection. While pursuing her studies
she became totally blind, remaining in that
condition several days. The young lady has
been near-sghted since her birth, and the
cause or the sudden blindness was attributed
TO straining her eyes at study. The young
lady has improved and resumed her studies.
To-day another case similar TO Miss Knicker-
bocker's, though OF a more peculiar nature,
was made known II appears that on last
Tuesday Mrs. Reuben ID. Wright and her sis
teI-in-law spent the day with friends IN the
lower portions OF the city, and returning
home IN the evening, and before taking Of
her wraps. Mrs. Wright was sitting before
the fire in her residence at No. e34 Walnut
street, when she suddenly put her hand TO her
eyes and screamed: I'm blind" For some
days she was totally blind, but to-day can dis
tiaguish a large object between her and the
light. Mrs. Wright and her friends are at q
loss to know the cause of this sudden attic
ton. as she has never been troubled with
near-sightedneSs or weak eyes

wholesale Forgery Business.
The integrity of private detective agencies
has received severe blow lately by the
arrests of two of the principal private
detectIves-one for Matchmaking and one
for forgery. The latter arrest occurred
yesterday. The prisoner is one Charles c.
Chicott. who has rejoiced in the title of
''Chief Of the National Secret Detective
Service"
1t transpires that four forged checks. ag-
gregating the snug sum of 1926. have been
cashed at the Commercial bank on the East
Side, the respective checks having been
drawn on that institution. and they all bore
the name of Priscilla Libby, who lives near
Hamline university. They were dated the
9TH. 9th. 25th and 2Sth of January respect
lively. The crookedness was discovered by
Mrs. Libby on Monday night, when her
bank book at the Commercial was shown
her and the circumstances explained by the
cashier. Early yesterday morning steps
were taken To catch the crook. All the
banks were notified of the circumstances
and soon after Chilcutt presented check
for 500, which he left on deposit. The
teller requested him TO call in later. as the
cashier desired an interview. He called
and was arrested by Officer Allen. At the
first precinct station he confessed his guilt.
He said he had begun by inducing Mrs.
Libby, with whom he had once lived. to give
him note for $40. This he raised TO $40.
By depOsiting the sum he obtained bank
credit and had no difficulty in getting the
forged checks cashed. The prisoners wife,
to whom he has only been married few
weeks, called soon after the arrest. She
was emphatic in protesting her beliefin her
husbands innocence. and claims that il is a
job put up by Mrs. Libby's daughter to get
Chilcutt into trouble on account of jealousy.
Mrs. Z. claims that Miss Libby is enamored
of Mr.. c.. etc.
The prisoner will be arraigned this after
noon.

a COKE FAMINE PROBABLE.
Many Thousands Affected by the
Great Coke Drawers Strike.


PITTsBURG, Feb. 2.-The great strike in
the coke region is likely to cause a coke
famine. 1t has been estimated that the
supply Oh hand to-day, both by operator
and consumer, will not last at the most ten
days, and at the expiration of that time,
unless the strike is broken and the men re-
sumo work. furnaces will have 10 be banked

all over the country be thrown out Of EN-

the number of men whom il affects. and Of
the hundreds or thousands of dollars that
will be lost to workingmen, cannot be esti-
mated. In the region here are between
i've and six thousand of the class of people
who are termed slaves by ii. {. Frick.
This embraces both men. women and chill

Very few of them have begun to make any
