A CRIMINALS
He Risked His Liberty to See His Dying
Sister.

1 6i8t6ls
sWhen I heard that my sister was dy-
ing, all of the policemen in st. Louis
could not have kept me from seeing her.
I would have given up my life rather than
surrender that sacred privilege"
Thus spoke Martin, alias "Murty''
Shea, as he wedged his ragged elbows be-
tween hold over bars and talked to a re-
porter.
Shea was arrested by st. Louis detect
ives a few months ago on the charge of
idling. Judge Peabody Of the police court
gave him two hours to leave the city. He
came out of exile for q farewell agreeting
from his dying sister.
Shea's devotion cost him his liberty,
for the police found him and he was thrust
In the hold over pending transportation to
the workhouse on account Of the unsatis-
fed police court Judgment hanging over
his head.
Rugged "Murty'' Shea, whose picture
Is in the rogues' gallery and who has for
at least q third of his life been branded as
a crook, would not ordinarily be looked
upon as the exponent Of 9 noble principle.
But Investigation shows It to be a fact
that Shea's return to st. Louis In defiance
of Judge Peabody and the whole police
department was aue alone to the love he
bore his sister, Mrs. Mary O'NeiH Of 1926
Mullanphy street. Mrs. O'Neill died
shortly after her exiled brother reached
her.
It was her fondest hope tina she might
be spared to see him. She was in a dying
condition when he knelt by her bedside,
but she was conscious. From the time he
left the train thai carried him tosthe city

the enarheled patriotic devices carrying

ranged for scarfpins, to wear with the
white tic worn twice around the neck and
simply crossed down the front. Eagles,
shields, stars Of the three colors, tiny hags
and the different insignia of a are all
cleverly initiated in miniature.
Striking combs to wear in the evening
have a row of Is stars on the points, and
each star is outlined with enameled ma

spaces wherein to slide a photograph in
miniature of one of the heroes OF the day
or perchance the wearer's own particular
hero.
The other day I discovered that there is
moro than n way for q soldier to show
himself a hero. There was a regiment go
ing out of the camp to active duty. All
day long, from 4 O'Clock In the morning
until s in the evening. those boys toiled
like longshoremen loading tents, baggage
and stores into wagons, out of wagons,
into cars and out of cars, on to the steam
boat and off again. and on to lighters and
finally on to the wharf. These soldiers for
the most part are young lads OF 20 to ~,
brought up in cleanliness and comfort.
They were dusty, dirty, hot and weary,
and, worse thar all. hungry n thirsty,
for no provision had been made to give
them food or drink, as they had expected
to have been in the fort before noon Not
one word of complaint passed their lips.
That was heroism. / told one dusty, dirty
lad, one very dear to me, to hurry up and
earn promotion SO that he could resign.

I left there thinking that was heroic un-
der the circumstances and worth a basket
of sandwiches and fruit, and when, after
infinite difficulty, l had got through the
crowded street, the stacked muskets, the
piles of baggage and mascots, back with

are heroes every one, only some never get
a chance to show the world of what stuff

While everything we see and every word
we hear is colored with patriotism one
must be forgiven if one does forget about

striped or iridescent taffeta is suitable,
more SO han any other, as no dust will adj

Gus ways, but rufies are really necessary,
as the object is to set the dress skirt out
full and yet lightly. All silk skirts are
made on yokes. White taffeta, pink, blue,

dancing are simply smothered In lace, and

CHILDREN'S COLUMN.
a BAkER's DOZEN.

Story of HOW thu Custom OF Giving Thirteez
For Twelve Originated.
Away back in the first half of the seven-
teenth century, when Albany was merely
q Dutch settlement, there lived in that
town a man with the modest little name
of Baas Volckert Jan Petersen Van Am
sterdam.
B. v. j. P. Van Amsterdam was o
baker and famous. He was the inventor
Of our gingerbread boys and Of specia!
New Years cakes filed with caraway
seeds. Van Amsterdam was the most
popular baker In Albany because his bak
ings were good. He is reported as having
been good himself, a greht c~hurchman,
and II a little stingy no one dared say SO.
Now, ON New Years night in 1854 Herr
Van A. was watching the old year out
and thinking of the good sales he had
made when there was a sharp little tattoo
at the door. The latch was raised and in
from the cold, stormy winds of the Hud-
son blew a little old woman, very old in
deed. She came right up to Baas and said
in a high, cracked voice:
"Give me a dozen New Years cookiesl'
But when Baas had counted them out
for her she set up a perfect howl, SO that
the people said LEI day that the wind had
been very shril that night.
"A dozenl Adozenp' she cried. "You
lave given me only 49,"
Then the frugal Dutchman lost his tenn
per and asked her out, and away she went
grumbling, and with her went all OF Baas
Volckert Jan Petersen Van Amsterdam's
coed luck.
The very next day his bread fell, the
yeast soured, his cakes burned. Then
things grew even worse. Whole bakings
would suddenly be drawn up the chimney
or fall through the oven to the cellar.
Bricks were torn from the fireplace and
thrown at the poor Dutchman.
Then the old woman came again, but
Baas was not to be moved-he would not
give ID for 10 and away few the witch.
After this his wife became deaf, his chill
dren fell i'll, and at last, broken in spirit,
on the third and last visit of the old wom-
an, he gave her what she asked, and pros
perity came back SO fast that every one
marveled.
All the custom of Albany flowed into
B. V. J. P. v. AIS. Every one wanted
the extra cake, and the other bakers had
to adopt the custom established by their
leader.
So 10 became the regular number of q
"baker's dozen, " and SO remained until
after the Revolution, which changed some
things for the better, but others for the
worse, as we have just shown.-Philadel-
phia Times.

First there are the shoes. One finds
variety to choose from of unusual extent.
Tho tan oxfords are probably more worn
than any others, but it is not because they
are SO elegant, for they are not. and moth
ing can make them SO. But they keep
their color and the best mes keep their
shape better han any other leather. Why
/ cannot tell. The black oxfords are al
ways tidy, and those now offered in the
Nbest qualities are really handsome, and
tho vamps and the toe pieces are prettily
pinked out in patent leather, which shows
up clearly over the duller kid of the rest
of the shoe. The toes are not pointed nor
too blunt, but rounded gracefully.
For tennis there are comfortable canvas
shoes with low, fat heels. The shoes for
bicyclists are offered both high and low,
the low ones being cut and finished ike
the oxfords with the exception of the heel.
The high shoe will not be worn as much
during the summer months as the low
shoes with canvas leggings, which are
much cooler.
Then there are the dainty silk, kid and
satin slippers for summer hops at the wa
tering places. These vary SO greatly that
it leaves every one a choice. Many have
gilded, silvered or bronzed heels and no
end Of fancy lace rosettes or quilted rib
bon with shining rhinestone buckles.
Black satin slippers and bronze kid are
also very dainty for evening wear.

they are not becoming, and they make the
feet look large. Then there Is q good

and rather fat heels. These are for the
long tramps over mountains and rough

They are much affected by ~sass1ety." In
addition to these there Are several styles
in buttoned boots. As these arc only to
be worn travelling or coaching, they are Of
light quality and exquisite finish. When
I say travelling, Imean railroad and steam

strength as elegance.
Next to shoes naturally come the no.

the colors and combinations Of color. Tan
Is still q fapordte, but black Is In favor

blue, pink, yellow, cream, red, plaid, fow-
