old and wealthy family of Ohio, and
it Is said that she AMI DR.. Arm

government to regulate the vast &C
emulation of wealth.
The constitutionality of the inner
itance tax law has naturally been
challenged. During the Spanish
American war congress passed an
inheritance law and collection was
started. The law was later repealed.
But during its life sui,s were be-
gun by estates on the ground that
they were outside of its provisions.
The money was refunded and this
led many to the erroneous conclu-
sion that the act had been declared
unconstitutional.
Will President Roosevelt in his
next annual message urge congress
to pass an inheritance tax?
That is the question worrying
the representatives of vested inter
ests. Is this Inheritance tax to be
made an issue, as the rate legisla-
ton was made an issue?
Is the next presidential; campaign
to be made on this inheritance tax
issue-or with this as one of the
prominent features? What effect
would this have on the proposed
candidates. of such Republicans as
Foraker, Fairbanks, Shaw, or even
TaftP
VIII the Republican party follow
Roosevelt in these radical paths?
In Washington it is all one big
interrogation point. Meantime the
old line Republicans are cursing to
see the president commit them to
radicalism of the most pronounced
brand; the Democratic party lead
ers are cursing to see a Republican
president stealing their political
thunder, and the voice of the com.
mon people penetrates dimly but
unmistably In a chorus of approval.

PHILADELPHIA, April 60
Through the agency of the street

been a general roundup of persons
who have within the last few years
created a new industry known as

the bureau. has established branch.

and what had become a lucrative
and easy occupation Is now both
difficult and dangerous.
Chief Silcox has had to deal with
many swindlers, both male and fe-
male. Not long ago he caught four
women who had realized on 20
fake" claims against various
street railroads. This quartet had
worked the gentle art of getting
hurt with no outside assistance OF
their plots. Emboldened by their
success they were instructing their
children in the game when they
were finally arrested.
Beatrice Graham, but a short

who examined her from time to

he now is, and the chorus girl fled
to parts unknown.

ANNIVERSARY OF
ODOftLLOWSHIP

BALTIMORE, Md, April 26.-

Fellowship was first organized in
this country. 1t was on April 26,
1879, that the first lodge was form

a distinctive organization, known
as the Manchester Union, had it's
birth in England in the eighteenth
century, where it grew rapidly and
reached formidable proportions, but
not until 1879 was it transplanted
to America. Since its organiza-
ton in this country Odd Fellowship
has grown to remarkable proper
tons and today the Oruer of Odd
Fellows Is, numerically, the strong
est of all fraternal orders in the
United States.
Odd Fellows throughout the
United States are celebrating the
anniversary Of the esta blishment of
Odd Fellowship in the United
States today with great enthusi-
asm. Anniversary meetings with
music, addresses and other exer-
cises will be held in every city or
town this evening, wherever there
is a lodge of the order. In many
OF the southern and southwestern
cities the anniversary celebrations
are held in public parks or summer
gardens and elaborate programs
have been arranged TO: the occa-
sion, including popular games,
races, etc.
