Mrs. Cox said it came so sudden that
she did not know much about II,

thing and badly wounded. The
neighbors heard the noise and tele-
phoned the police. Officers Hill and
Senser found the Augustus woman

"The Girl From Kays" attracted
large audience to the Kentucky
theater last night. The company Is
not so large as the average musical
comedy, and there was no talent of
extraordinary brilliancy In evidence.
Ben Howard as Harry Gordon, was
good, and has a good, clear voice.
and easy. graceful presence. Jack
Bernard as Hoggenheimer, and his
chum Percy, played by Roy Atwell,
were funny at times. Some of the
music Is pretty, and many Of the
lines bright. but the audience did
not appear to be much taken with
The Girl From Kays, possibly be-
cause il expected too much.

later by the end of the week, but
there is now no prospect of sending
them out again before Monday.

Shakespeare's comedy Twelfth
Night" with Miss Marie Wainwright
as Viola, supported by an all star
cast, will be presented here tonight.
Miss Wainwright is the recognized
exponent Of Viola and Cesario in
this comedy. This is not. as general
ly assumed, a dual role for Viola
merely masks as the youth Cesarlo
for her better self-protection. This
actress displays the most delightful
humor in comedy scenes and It is
this fact, combined with emotional
strength, which flts her so supremely
for this character.

Statistics have shown over and over
again that washerwomen are much
more likely to contract tuberculosis
and actually suffer from the disease In
much larger proportion than other
working women OF the same grade Of
life This Is due to the fact that the
eXpectoration of the tuberculous pa
TENTS clingng to their various articles
OF clothing Is not rendered nonyirulent
by antiseptlcs or by boiling before they
come Into the hands of the washer
woman. 1t Is particularly hundker-
chiefs that are the most dangerous In
this respect, and the enforcement of
sanitary regulations with regard to ex-
pectoration Is sure to add to this dan
ger. 1t would be we'll If the Chinese
custom of using paper handkerchief
(Which the Cinnamon of the better
classes would disduln to carry with
him once II has been soiled, but which
he hands over to his servant to be dis
posed of by burning) could become the
rule In this country. Until 1t does,
however, physicians should call the at
tention, especially Of those suffering
from tuberculosis, to the necessity for
having their hnndkerchiefs soaked for
some time in n suitable nntlseptlc solu-
tion before allowing them 10 be sent

DIPLOMACY.
A Polite Business Very Much Like
the Practice of Law.

Polite Business Very Much Like
the Practice of Law.
Diplomacy is matter of business,
though polite business, hedged about
by etiquette and forms and adorned
with few frllls. Get behind the lin
gerle and the lingo and go to the heart
Of the thing and you will find 1t very
much like the practice Of law. The
man with the best case ought to win,
and when he doesn't and the man with
the poorer case does win 1t Is because
he is the better man and knows bet
ter how to present his case and how
to handle it. There Is another popu-
lar notion that the American diplomat
ic establishment Is weak because our
representatives abroad contend with
men trained all their lives In the diplo-
matte school We have no permanent
diplomatic establishment. Our am
bassadors and ministers abroad are
picked from law offices, editorial rooms
and even counting rooms. Usually
they have had no previous acquaint-
ance with diplomatic work. Yet nine
times out of ten they are more than
a match for the men they have to deal
with abroad. Breadth and strength of
character. knowledge of human nature
and experience gained in the rough
and tumble of life count for quite as
much as the other fellows diiettante
culture. 1t is the judgment of the
best observers throughout the world
that our successful American lawyers
and editors easily hold their own
against their competitors. = Walter

Mason and Dixon's line between

HOW BROKERS WORK.
Four Different Kinds of Operators
Who Execute Orders.

VINO Execute OFuerss
Let's see what broker Is exactly.
He's the man whose services you must
seek If you wish to buy or sell stocks.
You can't do n thing In Wall street
without TINT broker. You can't fill
your own orders In Wall street any
more than you can fill your own teeth.
The broker IS TO you as n Spectator
what Il dentist IL to you as man with
a toothachc
Now, operations on the floor of the
Stock Exchange are conducted by four
groups first, by Individual spectators
who trade on their own account and
these of course are members of the ex-
change; second, by brokers who lend
money FOR banks; third, by commission
houses which buy and sell bonds and
stocks for persons not members Of the
exchange, and. fourth, by specialists
who are also called floor brokers, and
oftentimes dollar brokers" or two
dollar brokers'" and who execute or
ders for commission houses. In turn,
commission houses are OF two kinds
those that conduct one home office and
many branch offices connected by pri-
vato wire, and those that conduct a
local and mail business.
To n broker In one OF these classes
your order Is given. In executing your
orders and those OF others the brokers'
earnings may be any sum from $40
more usually $100-t to thousands day.

reserved for one person. The choice
of seats will be determined according
to the priority of the postmark on the
letter. If several letters are post.
marked at the same time, the seats
will be distributed ms the letters are
opened and without consideration to
the writer.
Any tickets which may be left I'M
sold in the mail order system will be
placed on sale at the Fair grounds
the day for which they are issued.
The sections in the grand stand re-
served for Wednesday and Thursday
will he placed on sale at the grounds
at . o'clock. Wednesday and Thurs
day mornings. This plan was adopt
ed that those living outside of Tren-
ton may have nm opportunity to get
good seats as late as the day they at
tend the fnr.
The Directors also decided to change
tho price of seats for Big Thursday.
On that day only the grand stand
chairs will cost ~ each, and those in
the club house section will be sold
for 81. This rule was also adopted as
a cheek to spectators. The prices
other days will be 80 cents for the
grand stand aud 81 for the clubhouse.
The auction sale of boxes will take
place Thursday afternoon, September
IA. Mt o'clock ut the grounds. The
sale of booth and dining privileges
will be held at the grounds the after
noon of Saturday, September ., Mt .
o'clock.
One OF the features of the Fair this
year will be II dog show of extensive
proportions. To make the show a
thorough success the Fair has Joined
the American Kennel Club, and this
aililiation will bring to Trenton during
Fair week the very best dogs in the
land. To provide for this feature de-
partment II new structure is being
erected which will have room for more
than thousand dogs.
Secretary Mahlon Il. Margerum has
planned additions to all the usual Mt
traetiye departments, and the display
this year in the agricultural, fancy
work, art, live stock and other branch
es will be greatly augmented. The
vaudeville feature will present daily
entirely new feature attractions from
the selected fields of this and foreign
