 Wives to "White Powders,"


 CHICAGO. Jan. 26. The white powders" figuring in "Bluebeard" Johann Hoch's treatment of his numer- ous wives has been explained by phy- biIity of causing diseases such as struck down many of the women dupcd by Hoch.
 It was brought out that there were at least eight irritants, capable of produc- ing nephritis and concealing their own presence behind the symptoms of the disease itself, bafiiing post mortem eX. amina ton and possibly chemical andy sis. Inspector Shippy. Investigating the murder and bigamy charges against Hoch. thinks he has solved the mystery of how the women could die and ex- perienccd physicians see nothing wrong Efforts of the police 10 search the house at 6I3o Union avenue were stop ped by the owner. Edward Vail
 "There is no use searching here" said Vail. "He.h did not move here until December, and the only wife he had then is dead and buried"
 The argument appealed to the police and they withdrew.
 Police Inspector Shippy was inform ed that while Mrs. Marie Walcker- Hoch was dying in her home at 6i30 Union avenue her husband was casting about for another wife
 Two days before tho death of his wife an advertisement appeared in a German newspaper for wife.
 Mrs. Emelie Fischer noticed the ad. v-rtisement and, not knowing that the man was her sisters Husband. answer. ed it.

0AKVlLLE HAPPENINGS

The young people of the Christian Endeavor society, about thirty in number, accompanied by the Rev 4. k. Lutz and q few other older per sons, set out iI igh spirits Tuesday evening around o'clock on their pro jected sleigh ride to Morris in a vc- hicle drawn by four horses which was furnished by NJ. E. BTahen of Water town. The snow storm did not then portend to develop into blizzard un- prece,lented in severity this winter, and of course each one expected to get back in time to slumber beneath his own roof. However, the party did not reach thoir destination before 10 o'clock. after having undergone two unavoidable immersions in the snow and having walked parts of the drift cd road where it was feared the sleigh might be overturned again Exhausted and suffering keenly from the inclemency of the weather, the numerous company highly appreciat- cd the liberal hospitality of the Rev r. w. Fletcher and family. whom they had gone to visit. and willingly consented to remaining there over night. sending word home through the telephone of the situation. The tenn pcstuous weather having continued with increased violence. they are still in Morris, and enjoying themselves immensely and little caring when tue storm subsidies. Fortunately Mir Fletchers residence Is very large. The party had not returned home up to this writing, and are intending to Te- main until the roads are passable. All the schools of this village were closed yesterday and the trains and electric cars were far off the schedule , time. The grocers and meat dealers were deterral from covering their routes. The storm was indeed rec ord breaker.
 The train No 1.2S2. which passes by here al a:2o D. m.. was imheddcd in a snow drift near Weltou's last evening until go o'riock. awaiting to he re. leased ny another engine. Ii carried al"ut thirty passengers, mostly work. n.cn from Waterbury. To-day the tratiic was almost as much impelc.l though the train was made up of two engines and only q passenger and T baggage ear.

The scarcity of pearls in American markets IS due largely to the fact that the women of India and Arabia have lately taken to wearing them. and the fishers can get as good prices at home as by exporting them.

If Dr Hills of Brooklyn had preach ed his Leavenworth hall sermon from box at the junction of Grand and Bank streets, he would probably have been denounced just as some other speakers were who orated on this spot. Socialism Is the same at Its foundation whether advocated by preacher or radical government ownership man
 Dr Hillis would have merchants drop their prices so that they will make a decent days pay about the same as a factory hand. The socialists want federal control of all things and let every man share equal in the spells. Perhaps if the Waterbury Women's club knew just what Dr Hillis was going to say they would not have brought him to this town of steady habits, good times and good feeling generally.

The total enrolment of children of school age as reported by the school enumerators is 16,466 as against 15 251 last year, a gain of 1,215. This means that the state of Connecticut will pay to the city of Waterbury $37,O4s.5O for the education of children next year, or $2.25 for each child of school age. Now If the local school board wants to do the nice thing, and give everybody a square deal, why not turn over at least one-half of the $2.25 to the parochial and other schools that are educating large number of children at no expense to the city. This money is paid to the town by the state, yet it does not give an equivalent for it. Why should the town pocket several thousand dollars that it gives no re- turn for? Isn't it about time now for the city to be generous as well as just?

 The results of the recent elections show the growing disposition toward state socialism, says Washington writer. It is the swing of the pendu- lum of popular opinion te.the extreme as rebound from the despotism of the money power which has grown des- potic under the control and fostering care of the republican party. Such a menace to the liberties of the people and to the perpetuity of the republic has this seemed that the people have forcibly registered their protest at the polls. It would seem on the surface as If this was an uprising to keep the power to deal with the evils in the hands of the people where 1t belongs. But it is not socialism as socialists know it, because socialists demand that the federal government shall take con- trol of all wealth and of the entire business of production, and give the population a new deal in everything. In Ohio, for instance where the tri- umph of democracy was complete and unexpected, a peculiar phase of the election is that seemingly it Is at the same time an endorsement of Presi- dent ROosevelt's scheme for the regu- lation of railroad rates. That color has been given to 1t because Senator Fora ker opposed it, and therefore the agi- tators for rate regulation have claimed that this election was a rebuke to Sen- ator FOraker. But on the other hand Secretary Taft. who endorsed the pres ident's position in this matter, led the attack on Boss Cox, and unquestiona- bly did more than anyone, or possibly more than a hundred men, to bring about his defeat. This makes a queer mix-up from a political standpoint and leaves the groper for straws very much in the dark.
