New York, Aug. 9.-Prosecutor Je-
rome has learned that Florence Zeig-
field, husband of Anna Held, told of
chorus girls in his company who call
ed upon Stanford White and left word
with the servant saying that Mrs.
Harry Thaw called" This was only
a joke, but it caused White to send
flowers and note next day to Evelyn.
Harry received them and it is declar-
ed this caused the tragedy.
1t will be recalled that immediate
ly after the murder there was a gen.
eral stampede of high class chorus
girls from the city and various rea-
sons were assigned for the fact. The
reason generally accepted at the time
and which in fact is most widely be-
lieved yet. is that the influence OF
Whites friends was brought to bear
to get all the chorus girls out of the
city who were ever associated with
him or with them because of their
special knowledge Of Whites modes
of life.
The disclosures made by Zeigfeld
adds piquancy to the discussion, the
while it affords a plausible eXplana.
ton of the immediate provocation foi
the killing.

cut small and he is forced TO feed
himself as best he can. Evelyn today
took him a basket of fruit, a chicken
and two steaks.

The politicians are already pre-
pairing themselves for the coming
election and unless the people take
care to register and pay their poll
tax for the next two years they
will find themselves helpless when
the crisis comes. 1t has been said
of the American people that they
lie dormant and sleep on their
rights until some great crisis arr
ses, aud this would seem to be SO
from the history of past events.
In this State a very small proper.
tiou of the voting population has
voted in the past elections, and
some Of the most intelligent and
solid citizens have allowed their
poll tax to go unpaid, for the rea.
son that they have become dis.
gusted with politics as they exist
The next State election promises
to be a warm one from ever,
standpoint, and the issues that art
involved should bring every mar
of age to the polls. Unless
strong vote is polled we will flint
ourselves corraled for the mex
four years by grating politician
and an extravagant Legislature

have the power to say who shall
govern them, 80 why not get to
gether and elect a clean an

The Legislature has restored
to the people the rights coded by
the people to the Office holders
under the stress of the Infamous
necessities of reconstruction.
Abuses Of this coded power
undoubtedly occurred. but the
fault and the blame should lie no
more with those who have been
unworthy officers than with those
voters who are factionists and
blind followers. Now the power
is back in the hands of the indi-
vidual voter, and upon the extent
to which the average individual
voter asserts his personality and
his manhood, depends the future
of political conditions of Louisi-
ana. If the people do not SO vote
individually as to force every aspi-
rant for Office to win or lose on
his merits, then the selection OF
officers by direct primary will not
mend matters. Political freedom
is thing that no law can give to
any man, though law can prevent
political freedom. Political free
dom is a mental condition. We
now have laws that permit indivi.
dual political freedom to be exer.
cised. On the attitude of the
average individual voter, in this
State and elsewhere generally de.
ponds whether or not the Ameri.
can people will justify the faith
with which Thomas Jefferson
wrote the Declaration of Indepen.
dence and the faith that enabled
Washington, as soldier and states
man to transform that declaration

impoverished Soil

impoverished soil, like impov-
erished blood, needs a proper
fertilizer. A chemist by analyz-
ing the soil can tell you what
fertilizer to use for different
products.
If your blood is impoverished
your doctor will tell you what
you need to fertilize it and give
it the rich, red corpuscles that
are lacking in it. 1t may be you
need a tonic, but more likely you
need a concentrated fat food,
and fat is the element lacking
in your system.
There is no fat food that is

lated as
