GIRL HUGGED So HARD
SHE BROKE HIS RIB
Fair Photographers Enthusiasm in Dark
Room Proves Disastrous and
Leads to Lawsuit.

BUFFALO. n. Y. May 4-Walter
Lorrain. of Riga. Monroe county. has
brought action for s.. 900 damages against
Miss Marie DuCalm. of Niagara Falls,
alleging that Miss DuCalm Rugged him
so tightly as to break one OF HIS ribs.
Last winter they photographed the Ice
carnival at Quebec. During the develop
ment Of the negatives one in particular
appealed to the enthusiastic nature of
Miss DuCalm.
"Oh, Walter. doesn't anything like
that make you love nature. I'm just
going TO give you a big hug" she ex-
claimed as she hurled herself at the
plaintiff and gave him the rib-cracking
embrace.
In her defense Miss DuCalm sets up
that the hugging was involuntary and
due TO the effect Of the red light from
the dark room lamp; that II is a recog-
niZed scientific fact that the red rays
are likely 10 provoke excitability in one
of ardent temperament.

The jury. l infer. probably concluded
that substantial benefits OF this kline

MANY ON THE HUNT FOR IT

The Postoffice Department has asked
the Comptroller of the Treasury for a
decision which may untangle a snarl
in the administration of the department
which Congress. at the session recently
adjourned. caused through an over
sight In the Postoffice bill Congress
provided for the appointment Of a pur-
chasing agent, at a salary of $4,000 a
year, but II made no provision in the
bill for an appropriation to pay the
SALARY.
The heads Of the department made
this discovery yesterday. when they
took up the consideration Of the claims
of several candidates for the place. 1t
was then discovered that the man might
be appointed, but that he could not
get his pay until after the Comptroller
had acted. or until Congress meets.
Consequently. today there is an indif-
ference developing on the part OF some
of the candidates.
The position Of purchasing agent seems
to be desirable one. judging from the
character of the men who are hunting
it. One of these is Chief Postoffice In

SECRETARY TAFT APPROVES

Retired army officers are not TO be
assigned hereafter to active duty in the
staff department. Lieut.. Gen. A. r.
Chaffee. chief of stafr. has made this
announcement with the approval OF the
Secretary of War.
The new ruling came as a great sur
prise. and is causing much criticism
among officers who believe the depart
ment would profit by the experience of
many retired officers who are willing
to continue work in departments where
they are much more proficient than
such active officers as are available.
No Place for Mordecai.
General Chaffee issued the new order
in response TO a request from General
Crozier, chief OF ordnance. that Ger.
Alfred Mordecai. retired. the ordnance
expert, be assigned to duty in the
DuIeau OF Ordnance. The order Is as
follows:
with reference 20 the act OF Co J.

for active duty in certain cases, ii -
not the purpose OF the War Depart

This rule is approved by the SecTc-
tary of War. Retired officers applying

duty may be informed as above.
