Hyde Again in the Whir1.

J 6uTna1 Sped1a1 Service: ="
Paris, March 9.-James Hazen Hyde,
who has been living practically in seclu-
sion until lately, is now again enjoying
the gaieties and the intellectual recrea-
lions of Paris. He is frequently seen
at the opera and he gathers actors and
literary men at quiet dinners in his own
house. Feeling here is almost entirely
favorable to Hyde. The argument is
that he did nothing criminal, and prac-
.tically nothing on his own initiative;
that he merely. worked out system for
whose institution he was not RESPONSE
ble. His charm Of manner disarms an
tagonism based merely on principle,

LESS WATER USED
Pumping Record for January and
February Low.

Less water by 15,5oo,ooo gallons was
pumped into the city reservoir for the
first two months Of the present year
last year. This in spite Of the fact
there was a great saving of water last
year over the year before. The total
quantity of water used in the past two
months was 947, 22O,88O gallons, or
about 63 gallons per capita per day.
The great reduction in the consump-
!, ton of water is due largely to the in
crease in the meter service, which has
resulted in reduction of the lavish
waste Of water which was common
some years ago.

Theater Manager Declares War on

Journal Special Service.
New York, March s.-Before a
large audience, which attended the
Liberty theater last night, sensa-
tional speech was made at the end of
the second act by William 4. Brady,
who produced the Indian drama the
night before. Brady had announced to
several friends early in the day his in
tention to make q speech before the
curtain and throw. down the gauntlet
to the dramatic critics of New York.
He kept his word with a vengeance and
with tears in his eyes.
After the second act there were loud
calls for Mr.. Brady. The manager
stepped before the curtain and bowed.
"1adies and gentlepen,' he began,
fI am about to do something which
even my warmest friends have pleaded
with me not to do. have been advised
not to come before you and express my
thoughts, but 1 am going to do it. As

He Is Out to Fight.
"I have no newspaper back of me.
I am out to fight. The dramatic critics
of New York may be able to drive me
out of the theatrical business, but L

Continuing, Mr.. Brady said. "They

MCCALL MURDERED,
. DECLARES McCURDY
Former Head of Mutual Says
Newspapers Hounded Insur-
ance Man to Death.

Journal Special Service. 1. .
Morristown, N. j., March 8. THE
newspapers murdered John A. Mccall
and / do not intend to be hurried to
my grave by them,' is reported to
have been said to a party of insurance
officials by Richard A. McCnrdy shortly
before he left on his European trip:
connected with some Of the big insur-
ance companies, were at McCurdy' s
home visiting him and the conversation
turned to the death Of Mr.. Mccall late
president of the New York Life Insur-
ance company. Mr.. McCurdy is said
to have made the statement that he be-
lieved Mr.. Mccall was murdered by the
newspapers; that they had bounded him
to his death, and that one OF the -rea-
cape newspaper vituperation. He is
reported as saying he would stay in
France indefinitely, that his return to
this country is doubtful unless legal
complications arise which may necessi-
tate it. While his Morristown house is
open, it is thought it will be sold at tho
earliest opportunity.
Enquiry Is a Farce. ... :
The farcical character Of the investi-
cation which the remnant of the Trues-
WIN
Mutual Life Insurance company was
disclosed when President Peabody made
public the modified requisition sent him
by the investigators.
The requisition drawn up under the
direction of Stuyvesant Fish, called
mainly for facts concerning the trustees
Of the company. President Peabody
failed to furnish the facts and the OBJ
structive tactics he. employed resulted
- Az Ecl,
The modified requisition ignores the
trustees completely and requires no in
formation whatever concerning them.
It deals only with the officers and
those employees Of the company draw
| ing salaries Of $4,000 or more. There
have never been any suspicion or
charges against the employees, and now
that the McCurdys are out, only one OF
two Of the existing officers can be af-
fected by the requisitlon.
It was because Stuvesant Fish insist
ed upon probing the transactions of a
group Of trustees, who dominated the
finance committee Of the company, that
the hands of the Investigating commit
tee were tied as long as he remained a
member. Among the trustees, whose
affairs would have been probed under

The idea maintained by SO

one of the greatest errors CON-
mitted by our social fabric. Girls
have astray many . time because
they did not desire to work in
the kitchen. The kitchen should
not only not be shuned but
sought. Every girl has, invar-
iably. sooner or later. to become

worked for some one who is up

good pa7. They provide a nice

Who wouldn't be q soldier boy,
With bayonet and gun,
And camp out in the open plain,
Beneath the setting sun.
And wake up in the early morn.
Midst sound of cannon roar,
And catch the first fresh break
[of morn
AS to their mess they go.
They drive out in the balmy air,
On beef and beans and bread,
And the fragrance of hot coffee
Almost makes you lose your head.
To be on guard the livelong nig't
With bayonet and sword,
And patrol up and down their
beat,
With "halt" as their by-word.
And if comrade ventures thro,
The sentineps retreat,
He marches him to guard house,
With slow and silent feet.
But few would violate those
laws
Of rigid soldier life,
They stand on their dignity as
men,
Defying country's strife.
How grand and glorious they look
With even step and tread,
When they come out on dress
tparade,
With officers ahead.
When Col. Marshall and his suite
Of noble stalwart men,
Come dashing by on frey steeds,
We sure admire them then.

And Bat.Adj. York,
The way the ladies look at them.

They try to get wife.
