DOESN'T REMEMBER FORGING.
Lawyer Gottlieb, Under Indictment, Sent
to the TOmbs to Reflect.

Henry Gottlieb, lawyer who has done
time for forgery. was arraigned yester-
day before Judge Cowing in the General
Sessions on an indictment charging him
with a like offence. He didn't want to
plead because he said he didn't know what
he was accused of.
"Why, it's a common, ordinary indict-
ment for forgery, such as you probably
often saw when you used to practice here. "
said Judge Cowing. In 1t you are ac-
cused OF forging a check for 1910 on the
Trust and Savings Bank of Chicago and
presenting it as payment for taxes and
water charges against the property at the
northeast corner of Ninety-tifth street and
Third avenue. The Finance Department
says there is no such bank in Chicago
Does that refresh your memory of the
case?"
"No; have no recollection of such case" t"
replied Gottlieb
Judge Cowing showed him the check,
but he said it didn't help his memory.
1You go back to the Tombs until Mon
day. and see If you rememberit by then,s
said Judge Cowing.
When the Finance Department was in.
formed that Gottlieb's check was no good
ard he was notified, he replied that he
would get the cash and take up the check,
He went away and when next located was
in Chicago. He was arrested and brought
here. He was pardoned by Gov. Flow er
ten years ago after serving a year for
forgery.

More Verse by Mr. Kiser.

Deep knowledge of the small boys heart
II that is the organ where his iniquity is
stored has been shown before by Mr.. Samuel
E. Kiser in his Love Sonnets of an Office
Boy and that is by no means forgotten
in his new volume, Ballads of the Busy
Days" (Forbes q Co.. Boston,. Mr. Kiser,
however. has the ambition to lead his muse
into more serious and better trodden paths.
and the result is eminently respectable
verse, such as many others can write.
The greater number of the verses. never
theless, are in the line he struck out for
himself, and there his hand has not lost
It's cunning. For instance:
wonder why 1t is that girls are always told that
they
Should do Just like their mothers do IN every single
way?
Ns of1ul easy fer a girl to git along. becW
They praise her up fer actin Just the way her
mother does.
! wonder why 1t is that boys cant go and do the
Their pas do. and still not get licked or lecturcd
every day
Their pas they nearly always smoke and many OF
them chew.
And wunst my pa he got so mad heard him swearn'.
A short example of Mr.. Kisers grown up
epigrammatic philosophy will have to
do.
The wise man thinks before he speaks.
And when II Is too late
sits down, defeated and alone.

ESCAPE BY LADDER FROM FIRE.
School Children Across the Way Marched
Quietly to Safety.

A fire which started In the basement Of a
six story building at IS Delaney street
yesterday afternoon caused great excite
ment among several hundred persons at
work in the building. Twenty-Five were
carried down ladder by the fremen, and
the cool-headedness of one policeman saved
many others.
The basement is occupied by the American
Bedding Company. An employee dropped
an unlighted match in lot of loose excel
sior and then accidentally stepped on the
match. The other floors above are ocou-
pied by tailoring establishments. and the
smoke caused wild rush to the stairways,
which soon became badly crowded. Those
on the upper floors then made for the fire
escapes. Acting Lieutenant Clifford of
Truck o, with Firemen Gleason, Grady,
Pyne and George. ran ladder up and took
these people down to the street AS the
last few were being carried to safety the
flames burst from the cellar grating and
set fire to the bottom OF the ladder. Just
as the last employee woman, was taken to
firemen caught 1t, thus preventing any Of
the crowd in the street from being injured
There was much excitement on the narrow
stairways of the building, and Patrolman
Herman Silberstein of the Eldridge street
station found that man had fallen on the
blocked the way. The policeman picked up
the man and carried him to the street, fol-
lowed by the others from the floors above.
Almost directly across the street Is Public
School 49, in which there were 500 pupils.
Miss Hayes, the principal, ordered the silent
drill to be gone through, and the children
all rose to their feet and sang "The
Star Spanglod Banner" All hands were
marched out in good order between two
lines formed by the police and hremen.

EX-INSPECTOR THOMPSON FREE
Charge That He Got Gilhooiy's Insurance

The complaint against ex-Inspector Wal

widow Of Sergt, Thomas Gilhooly of making
her husband pay s? 500, secured by life in
suranc- policy since collected, for his promo
tion, was dismissed yesterday by Justice
Mayer of Special Sessions. Assistant District
Attorney Lord sent word to Justice MAYER
that he could not find witness to corroLo-
rate Mrs. Gilhooly's statement, which so far
as it concerned the purpose for which the
money went to the Thompson family was
hearsay. The widow could only tell Of
talks she had had with Thompson and his
wife to show that she and her husband
were paying the Thompsons about 3u a
month.
LAWYER Charles w. Dayton said that if
Thomson had had to make any defence he
could have shown that these payments were
made to settle debt of 5, 800 money bor-
rowed Ivy Ghooly of Mrs, Thompson
No defence was required, however, Justice
Mayer handing down a decision which said
that mo proof having been offered to show
that the said defendant was guilty of crimi-
nal offence. il is ordered that the complaint
be dismissed and the defendant discharged. !"

much upon the physical condition of its

tribute to health and long life, are those which
do not imply rapid and unequal exhaustion
OF those powers by which lii9>is maintained.
While we assert that the women of our land
stand peerless for beauty and the virtues that
make them lovable, We cannot hide the fact
that there are thousands in our midst who,
owing TO overwork, worry, household cares,
and an unequal exhaustion of life power, have

tated.

Can You Afford IL.

The noted advocate of temperance,
Hon. John G. Woolley, of Chicago,
at a recent meeting in part said.
There are three lessons to be
learned from the Bible, viz: Re-
sponsibility of the government for
the protection of the people, respon-
sibility in a democracy for the indi-
vidual citizens, and the final juris-
diction of divine authority over hui
man judgment. To discuss these
points would take too long, but the
thought | want to impress tonight,
the central sun-lit thought of the
whole thing, is that clean hands are
a condition precedent to prevailing
prayer. The shame of America to-
day is that the elders and bishops
are praying for the obstruction of
the liquor traffic, but are putting up
hands that are not clean.
"Can you afford to find out where
you stand2 Can you risk the swell
pulpit you have your eye on; can
you risk running your political pros
poets; can you risk losing that rich
father-in-law? Are you man enough
to stand erect and do what you know
is right? If you are, the temper
ance fight is won right now.
Turn out on election day, and, in
stead of going to the ballot box with
saloonist, 90 with clean heart
and a determination to see right
done Use the ballot box as a wash
basin and wash your hands on cleo
ton day.
Il beg of you to find out what is
your relation TO the liquor problem.
| believe | shall live to put my own
foot on the neck of the liquor traffic.
For the sake of the Methodist church,
which you love, for the sake of the
country you idolize, j beg of you
wash your hands.
This is not only good advice to
church members, but Ia fathers On
election day wash your hands of the
saloon. Don't vote to keep them
among us, but rid our town of this
evil and by so doing help save the
boys.

PoPE's CHOICE OF TITLES.
Events Which Have influenced Pom

tiffs in Their Selection.
New popes are sometimes influ.
enced by incidents of their boyhood
in selecting the titles by which they
desire to be known. Thus Leo Kill.
when In his teens, presented an adj
dress TO Leo. XII, and the event so
stamped itself upon his memory that
1t determined his choice of a title
when he was called to the chair OF st.
Peter. Some similar recollection, il
is likely enough, suggested the de-
cision of Cardinal Sarto, and not,
as has been too readily assumed, a
desire TO give an indication OF his
prediction for the policy of Plus TX.
Between the last pontiff who bore the
name Of Plus and the present one
there is a striking resemblance mus.
ically, for Plus TX. was also a pro-
ieient player on the piano and organ
and possessed an excellent barytone
voice. His singing of mass was a
musical treat, but he suffered agonies
while his intimate friend Cardinal
Manning was similarity engaged No
Englishman can sing mass decently, 4"

COST OF STEAMSHIP SPEED.
Extra Knot Per Hour Is a Costly
Honor for Atlantic Liner.

Extra Knot Per Hour Is a Costly
Honor for Atlantic Liner.
The extra knot Of speed, or fraction
of a knot. which each newest Atlantic
liner must achieve over her predeces-
sor of a few months before is a terri
bly, costly honor Just how costly 1t
is is explained in the 1904 edition OF
Rhodes steamship guide.
Say that ! 1000 horse power gives a
speed of 16 to IL knots, and 1000
horse power gives Fl knots. From
this point the effort required To pro.
Guce each additional knot Is enor-
nous.
Thus, 5000 horse power only gives
23% knots and 1000 horse power
gives 26 knots, and the next six knots
would mean almost doubling of the
power
ut might be possible" says the
writer, "by minimizing the luggage
and using metal Of high tensile
strength. to reduce the weight OF a
22-knot merchant steamer to $4,000
tons, but, unfortunately. passengers
must have their luggage with them.
the best and ample provision must
be supplied, malls must be carried
and little precious cargo, so that
the displacement is increased at least
5000 tons or so, with the result that
the power required for the speed of
90 knots amounts up TO such an ex-
tent that the consumption of coal
equals a ton per mile traversed, and
the extra load of 5000 tons costs in
coal alone for the Atlantic trip some
$4,000"
