Things have come to a sorry pass
in Maryland when a sheriff is oblig-
/ ed to spirit a prisoner away by night
to lonely island in order TO con-
duct legal execution without The
interference of a mob. 1t IS dlfleul.
to imagine state of civilized society
so thoroughly demoralized as that of
Queen Anne, Md, where a woifsh
mob insisted on doing Illegally the
very thing which the sheriff was
authorized to do legally Had the
day of the execution of the unfoIta-
nate wretch been set for some far
distant day or had there been the
least likelihood of his escape from
meritcd punishment the zeal OF the
mob might be explained. but its fran
tic endeayor TO simply trample the
law under foot by demanding a lynch
ing at the very hour Of the legal exc
cution betokens an inherent hellish-
ness and a moral depravity simply
inexplicable and beyond conception.
The sheriff was coward for sneak
ing away to lonely island to uphold
the dignity of the law He made the
law undignitied and a laughing stock.
He should have marched his prisoner
to the regular place of execution IN
der the guard of Calling gun and
ruthlessly opened fire upon the frst
demonstrations of mob law. Mary
land needs something of that kind to
awaken her people to a sense of their
bestial shame.-Fort Wayne News.

A LATE issue of the Teachers
Journal Magazine in an editorial
says: THE nomination of Fas-
sett A. Cotton for superintendent of
public instruction by the Republican
state convention is a triumph for the
cause of education in Indiana" Con-
tinuing it adds: Superintendent Cot
ton has done an excellent work. He
has advocated the right things and
can show results. His administra-
tion has been safe and conservative.
yet there has been marked advance
ment along many lines. This is an
Office which should be taken out of
Jolitics. It is said teachers and edu-
Gators of the state are almost un-
aninaously for Mr. Cotton's re-elec-
ton.

PASSING OF THE CEAMOIS

After all these years American
women are now to learn that what
they supposed to be chamois skin.
with which they smoothed out the
wrinkles on their face, is in reality
common sheepskin. According to a
report printed by the department Of
commerce and labor today not enough
chamois skins are obtained through
GU the world to supply the United
States for more than a single day.
The substitute referred to by the de-
partment as obtained sheep or
lamb skin lining" is lighter and finer
than chamois skin. For strength
and durability the chamois is pre-
ferable.
According to the report recent in
curry in Switzerland shows that the
annual crop of chamois scarcely aver
ages between 5000 and 5000.

BASEBALL is A CLEAN GAME.

The alleged crookedness on the
part of Umpire Owen in throwing a
game to Columbus in order to win
some money which he had placed on
that team, is attracting considerable
attention, not because it is an aggra-
waited case of a common occurrence.
but because it is so unusual to hear
OF erookedness among professional
<epall players. In this day of muck
hackers when there is so much muck
to rake. 1t is refreshing to know that
the great national sport is untaint-
ed by the unscrupulousness Of men
who look upon sport as merely a
chance for graft.
When the fans see an exhibition
of professional baseball they do not
ask: is the pitcher fxed?" How
about the first baseman?" Murphy
can't hit today; there must be some
thing in it for him. They know
that every man is going to try his
level best to win that game and add
to the victories his team has already
won. That is the reason why voung
men and old, women and children
throng the grandstands or anxiously
await the newsboys cry. Sport

4 great deal is being said and writ
ten about the Will j. Block Amuse-
ment company nowadays. A year
ago this company was practically un-
heard of. In the inner circles of
the theatrical business. however, it
was known that Will j. Block, who
had been manager of the Herald
Square theatre, New York, and of
the LaSalle theatre, Chicago, had as
ISOLATED himself with a Montana
multi-millionaire of the name of
Morris Sellers Largely. and originated
a stock company under the laws of
New Jersey. Mr.. Blocks admitted
ability and thorough knowledge of
the show business, and Mr.. Largeys
enormous capital. made a cambina-
ton which caused all classes and con-
ditions of people in the business to
sit up and take notice. They started
off with three productions of musical
comedy, all pretentious and costly.
The first, piece called "Kafoozelum"
failed. The next, The Geezer of
Geek, was more fortunate and the
third, Coming Thro' the Rye after
a process of revision and able build
ing up, blossomed forth as one of
the distinct successes of the season.
1t is the work which Mr.. Block did
upon Coming Thro' the Rye" that
brought his corporation to the at
tention of the public and to the peo-
pie OF the show business in way
that carried conviction of this man
ayers determination to land his
company in the category of produc-
ing firms to be reckoned with. When
this production was first seen in New
York, some of the newspapers critics
reviewed it unfavorably. Mr.. Block
was not discouraged by this, how
ever, and he kept on eliminating
and adding to the score and the
book and changing the principals in
the company until he was rewarded
with united press favorable in it's
and with a public patron
age which was confined only to the
capacity of the theatres in which
Coming Thro' the Rye" was pre-
sented. Wherefore, this big mus
lcal comedy production is booked for
next season in the best theatres in
the United States. and the consensus
Of opinion is that it will be one of
the conspicuous winners of the year.
The great company which made such |
a success in the piece last season
has been re-engaged, except that the |
celebrated Coincidence, Ellie Fay,
be seen as Mrs. Cobb, the wealthy |
widow. In addition to this, the
Block company is presenting Marah
Ellis Ryan's great play Told in the |
Hills at Powers theatre, Chicago.

Arden, in the star part.

Proxy Husbands In Turkey.

Divorces are easy to obtain in Tur-
key. and q husband and wife may re-
marry three times. If they wish to
marry fourth time the woman must
go through the formality of marrying
another man and then of being d.
vorced- This custom has given rise to
a curious professionalism of proxy
husbands. Such men are generally
blind and have no hesitancy in relin-
gushing their brides for a money con-
sideration.

WITH THE EDITORS,

Auditor Of State Bigler is bound t.
make various life insurance compan.
les live within the law. His latest
move has included several concerns
that had previously managed to es,
cape. He was informed that some
companies had been sending out lit
@erature to the effect that the state
was back of every contract. As a
result of this information the audi
tor asked for copies of printed matter
from every organization. 1t was
found that in a number of instances
the literature openly made false
statements relative to Endorsement.
The auditor demanded that such mis-
representations cease and threatened
to take the charters from those who
continued to offend. As a result the
Insurance atmosphere is being con
siderably clarified
Mr.. Bigler is also conducting a
thorough examination of other In
diana companies. He is finding how
business is done and whether or not
a more searching investigation will
be necessary. All concerns which
are able to satisfy the official as to
the methods which now prevail viii

EBERT Hubbard said the one
thing that distinguishes man from
beast in his capacity to laugh Fra
Elbertus" is right for once. When a
man becomes SO lofty and mighty
that he has lost the power to see
humor in life, he is a proper subject
for the bone pile
Moreover, a man who cannot scare
up a smile when he meets friends
on the street, should go back to the
woods with the owls.

are all princesses; some strictly on

cllnging silks with fine nets falling
from girdles to give a semi-empire
eHeet-but these are mostly opera
and dinner gowns. There were nu-
merous models in black and white
combinations and in creamy and
canary colored crepes. A well known
actress is to wear a frock fit to
dream of. 1t is of deep cream chiffon
eroadeloth, demi-train, the hem
topped with folds of velvet above
which were diamond inlets of rich
Irish crochet. The cloth, which is
nearly as soft as crepe, is plated
around the girdle line and over the
hips to fit princess. The yoke of
lace is set oval and finishes with the
velvet pipings; squares of the lace
form soft lapels. Sad to relate, the
sleeves are long; the cloth is only |
used like tight shield half around |
the arm to the elbow for on top it |
is filled in with the lace which also |
forms glove tight sleeve to the |
wrist. A pony coat of the cloth was |
covered with the Irish crochet but
has elbow sleeves which display the |
long tight dress sleeves to great adj |
vantage. The elbow cuffs turned
back about four inches and like the |
small rolling collth were of golden |
Drown velvet worked over with gold
threads. Another dress for this |
same play was of orchid faille, low
bodice and sleeveless except for a I
mere bit of net and spangles which |
caught around the very top of the
arm. The material was fitted very
light and on excellent princess lines;
here was an under-ara girdIe of the
