BY WILLIAM T. ELLIS.

Most excuses are foolish. They are
really needless and seldom are they
sound. Generally, too they fail of their
purpose. and only bring the excuser
into further condemnation. They are
a sign Of weakness and of failure Alb
sence of excuses from the lips means
the presence of strength in the life.

MORE ATTACKS in
UNSAFE CHICAGO.
Two Women in Peril in City
Which Seems Unable to Check
Crime Epidemic.

Chicago, Jan. 1.-two more at
tacks upon women in the streets Of |
Chicago came to light today. They oc-
cured on a well-lighted boulevard, a
thickly settled high class residence dis
trict. The first attacks were made
at Oakley boulevard and Park avenue.
AS a result, Mrs. Emma Day is pros
trated with nerv ousnesS at her home.
Miss Pauline Aman, 10 years old, es-
capped her assailant.
With the disclosures of these assaults, 1
Mayor Dunno declared today that the
provision for 500 additional patrolmen,
100 Of them to be mounted, is INSULT
Gent. The mayor demands 1000 more
men added to the police force.
Circumstances attending the at,
tacks on the two women, who suffered
same night, indicate that their assail-
ant was not acting with robbery as his
| motive.
| Mrs. Day was beaten and kicked.
Further indignities were prevented by
the arrival of several persons who had
heard the woman scream. Her assall-
ant fled.
Mrs Day was carried to her home and
two doctors were called They found
her right ear split, her left eye discol-
ored and her head lacerated in several
places. Internal injuries are feared.
Mrs. HOLSTERS Death.
Mrs. franklin G. Hollister, whose
brutal murder by Richard Ivens has
aroused Chicago, was held a prisoner
/ in an empty house in Montana street
for hours before she was killed, by
gang Of five young hoodlums,. of which
her slayer was one, according to a
police.
The story confirms, the theory upon
which Mrs. Hollister 8 family and the
members Of Wesley church. in the
choir Of which she sang, have insisted
from the first. .sa
was seen by the gang as she came from
Montana street, near Lincoln avenue.
One Of their number overlook Mrs. Hol-
lister in Lincoln avenue, near Llll ave-

a poor family starving to death in an
empty house in Montana street. Won t

She was conducted to where the guar
tet lay in ambush. AS she entered the
house she was seized and gagged. AT,
ter she had been kept there several
hours, Ivens, it is said, insisted she
should be killed. He was OVERRIDE
and her life was spared on condition
that she promised not to tell her family
or the police. She is said to have
promised this.
e Ivens and another were delegated to
follow Mrs. HOLSTER home to see that
she kept her word. But lvens, it is
said, induced his companion to leave
him by telling him he would watch
her He trailed her, it is declared, until
she passed his fathers carpenter shop.
There, it is said, he decided upon q
second attack, and her murder was the
: result.

journal Special Service.
Chicago, JAM, 49, Chicago's boule-
ward system, which has been her pride
for years, has been ruined and made
a system Of corduroy roads by the
wearing on the pavements Of the con-
slant procession of, automobiles. The
making of boulevard roads must be
revolutionized if automobiling in Chi
cago is not to be allowed to cost the
city hundreds Of thousands of dollars
every year.
This new Indictment against the mo-
tor car was entered last evening by
Francis T. Simmons, president OF the
Lincoln park board, in an address be-
fore the Mems club Of Lake View.
Residents of the North Side have
watched their boulevards and the Lin
coin park roadways go from bad to
worse, and blame the owners OF auto
mobiles for it.
"Nothing SO injurious to macadam
pavements as the motor cars, with their
wide tires, ever has been devised
said Mr.. Simmons. cit is the suction
created by the fattening Of that part
of the tire which touches the road that
does the damage. This suction fastens
itself to the particles forming the
roadbed, and as the machine whirls by
draws the road material up as mag
net would so many particles Of steel,
| blowing a groove in the pavement. An
other automobile follows close behind
and assists in the destruction, and the
endless stream Of cars breaks thru sur
face in a hundred parallel tracks, ruin
ing a new and substantial pavement in
less than year.
