Modern Invention has perfected
means for producing ice at a very
just cost. The raw material is
unlimited. Ice is easy of manu-
facture and should be sold at
most reasonable figures as point
ed outin The Eveating journal.
"The exaetions of the ice men
are SO fragrant that in Toledo,
o. several of them have been
sent to jail Criminal prosecutions
againsttheice bandits have begun
in Philadelphia and there will

cRUELY OF ICE TRUST

Zone of the cruplest of the
many combines that affiict the
country is tie ice trust. Far and
wide, are complaints that the ice
trusts merely wailing 10 advance
prices on fimsy pretext that the
ice crop is short. This plan is
merely following out the general
attitude Of trusts, to limit supply
by fair means or by foul and then
to raise prices. Normal ecouD-
mic production tends to increase
largely productionofcomm Ii les
and TO cause lower prices so that
the people generally are benefit
ed.
'"The ice trust, like The coal
trust, plays With necessity tt
feeds upon want. rs Victims
must either pay the prices de-
mand or they must endure nn
told bodily suffering. That is
where the brutality Of such trusts
is seen. A combine that rules
the prices Of articles that are not
absolute necessities, cannot in
fict the same damage. People
can get aloag without ratronizing
the extortionists. The ice trust
is the most causeless Of trusts.

KIDNAPPING CASE NEAR DOVER

Mary Haas, aged 10 years, the foster
child Of Mr.. and Mrs. August Haas, who
recently moved to near Dover from Jer-
sey City, was stolen or kidnapped by two
men in an automobile. from in, front of
the child's home on farm near Willow
Grove twelve miles from Dover, Thursday
morning. Mr.. Haas came to Delaware
early last week with his wife, child and
Mary Haas, the adopted daughter, who
had been in their possession since she was
two and one-half years OF age, and for.
whose custody legal proceedings were re-
Gently begun by the mother. The father
of the child diedwhen it was but two wears
OF age and the mother, being in straight
ened circumstances, thought best to place
the little one in custody OF those more able
to tai charge of it. For eight years this
child has been with the Haas family, per-
fectly contented and without question.
Some months ago, the mother who felt
that she was in better circumstances de-
sired to recover her daughter and began
legal proceedings to this end.
/. Then Mr.. Haas decided that ii vas best
to get as far awav as possible from The
child's mother and move 10 Delaware.
While Mr.. Haas was away, two men in
an automobile passed the Haas farm, ap-
parently without attracting much notice.
They returned shortly, and when in front
OF the gate Of the lane, they stopped,
under the pfetense Of fixing their ma
chine. The children from the Haas
house surrounded the car, and aAer sat-
isfying himself which one Of the children
was wanted, one Of the men picked Mary
Haas up. closed her mouth with hand.
kerchief to prevent outcry, seated her in
the automobile and in fash rode away,
before the mother or the other child real
lied what had been done. Mr.. Haas on his
return, at once came to Dover and consult
ed lawyer as to the sest course to pur- |
suein beading off the kidnappers. TeIe- |
grams we're sent to relatives in Jersey CITY
to lookout for the party, but no other steps
were taken.
