LARRABEE IN THE NINTH
Speaking for Haynes He explains What
Law Enforcement Means.

In spite of the inclemeney Of the
weather last night large number of
ninth ward voters gathered at 632 Mon
roe street NE to listen to the demo-
cratic candidates. Frank D. Larrabee
delivered the principal address in place
Of former Mayor J. G. Haynes, who was
unable to be present.
After mentioning briefly the issues
involved in the congressional campaign,
Haynes. ~,
"What is law enforcementg' Mr..
Larrabee asked his hearers. "The> law
enforcement that Mayor Jones is talk
ing about Is merely discretionary en-
forcement Of law. He enforces only
those laws which he deems it advisable
to enforce. The law says that saloons
shall close at II 'clock. Mayor Jones
has not enforced that law nor has any,
months ago he ordered the saloons
closed on Sundays thruout the city. He
enforced that law literally for some
time; but latterly he has exercised his
discretionary powers and in certain
places downtown liquor can be procured
On the Sabbath.
"In similar manner Mayor Jones
allows the theaters to run on Sunday,
altho it is positively prohibited by law.
You may remember that he ordered all
poolrooms closed Sundays and then a
week later >reconsidered his action on
the ground that it was not advisable
to close these places Of recreation on
the Sabbath.
"Now, Mr.. Haynes is Christian
gentleman; belongs to church as does
Mayor Jones' He has good judgment;
he exercised it when he was mayor two
years ago. He has said that he will
enforce the laws and that he will see
that the saloons are regulated and kept
closed on Sundays. He meant what he
said, in spite Of the doubts Of some

Tobacco Combine Seeks World
Cigaret Monopoly by Liason
with Turkey.
By Publishers Press.

By Publishers Press.
Constantinople, Oct. 2O.-The Ameri-
can Tobacco Trust, the Ottoman gov
eminent and the Turkish tobacco reggie,
backed by French investors, are about
to engage in life and death struggle
for the control of the Turkish tobacco
industry.
The Turkish reggie was formed TWEEN.
ty:-two years ago to control the sale Of
ment, within the sultan's realm. Its
concession has but eight years more to
ruin and already a desperate effort has
been begun to have the time extended
and the lax smuggling laws amended.
The government, without the least
prejudice against monopoly, is said to
feel that it might do better with the
tobacco industry in its own hands than
under the old terms granted to the
regie. . .>.s. ~
Cling for price the American concern
suddenly appeared with an offer OF
nearly double the offer of the reggie
Its demands, however, are much greater
than those Of the Franco Turkish com
pany. In brief the Americans want tt

cigaret tobacco and to enforce sucl

smuggling as will make theirs one OF

The government, tho hard pressed fol-

leans offer, hesitates to turn the coun

London, Oct. 20.-One feature of the
opening Of the present social season is
the revival of the pretty fashion of
elaborate decoration on menu cards, APP
propriate, of course, to the occasion for
which the banquet, dinner or ball is
being given, and the present winter,
the manager of West End restaurant
told me, he will probably see some re-
pictur menu cards. .a
Another innovation, and more import
ant even that the menu card, is the
ousting of the male chef by the female
cook. The. society of male cooks, or
the chef society, as it is called, which
had it's headquarters in this fashionable
center, is in q futter Of excitement and
indignation. I'll H..
The. Marlborough club, the most ex-
elusive in London, had been invaded by
the woman cook. Tho this appoint
ment is more or less experimental, it
is naturally regarded with dismay by
male culinary artists. P. Alderman,
secretary of the chef society, being
asked what he thought about the mat
tr,. said with suppresser emotion:
Yes, this is is, not !: the only case, by
on at the present time to employ women
as chefs. Tthre seems to be wave
of women overwhelming the profession,
but, he added with smile, 1T think
it will end all right Woman has not
the temperament Of a successful chef.
She may have inspiration, but power Of
Organization, no, a big dinner to pre-
pare means continual anxiety for the
chef. At any moment a crisis may oc-
cur, an entire course, for example, may
be spoiled. A man of iron nerve will
rise to the occasion, but most women
chefs, however accomplished, will lose
their heads.'

New York, Oct. 20.-Final prepara-

ers from all parts Of the world are en-
tered. Miss Rose L. Fritz, New.
York girl, is the present holder. She
says that she is quite sure that she will
hold the championship. About three
score men and women are equally sure
that she will lose In view Of the fact
that Miss Fritz won the championship
from man, the men who are entered
in the contest are particularly anx-
ious that one Of their sex shall defeat
| her.
Machines are clicking all over the
country in practice for this event and
already elimination trials are being
held here and in other cities to select
the representative of business firms
or typewriting colleges, who shall en-

now to be brought to eight divisions,

being devoted to the breeding of troop

hitherto almost totally neglected.
This does not by any means exhaust
Japan s new ornaments. An entirely
new weapon is to be introduced in the
shape of ten brigades Of heavy artil-
guns. Each division is also to be
given a full regiment of technical
troops instead of the battalion each
formerly possessed-that is to say,
that the present thirteen battalions are
to be raised to sixty-three. Then TWEEN

JAPS ANGRY AT AMERICA

StIrs Up III Feeling.
BY Publishers Press,
Toxic, Oct. 20.-Japanese newspapers
are much disturbed by the anti-Japanese
agitation in California, eliminating in
the segregation of the school boys in
San Francisco. A prominent bund urges
retaliation and the Jill Shimpo fears
a break in the friendly relations between
the two countries.
A few Of the more conservative publ
cations hold the trouble due to political
conditions in California and without sig
nihcance so far as American public
opinion is concerned. It is evident, how
ever, that Japanese public feeling is
much wrought up and the friendly feel
ing toward America is fast disappearing.
