Beating the Street Car.

A young woman who got on Six
teenth street car recently and dis
covered shortly afterward that she
was without money or ticket showed
such perturbation that a young man
asked her what the trouble was, and
when she told him he insisted on CIV
ing her trip ticket She demurred
at first, but the young man finally
prevailed on her, saying, as he
moved farther front: TITS the last
ticket I've got, to be sure; but that's
easy" When the conductor came to
the young man he was busy with his
glove until the conductor went by a
little way and then came back. "You
got my ticket" said the young man.

young man; II happened to notice

looked, just to humor the refractory
passenger, and there, sure enough,
was ticket 7O,1O3, which the young
woman has rendered as fare.-Phila-

HAND" WILL MEET
FATE OF MOLLY MAGUIRES
Organized in Italy For Noble Purposes, It Has Been PrOsttuted
in This Country to Isnoble Purposes--Aims OF
Information Bureau Of Immigration.

Washington, D. C-"The Black Hand Society, o operating in New
York and elsewhere, will soon run its course and it's leaders will be brought
to the bar O.. justice" said Terence v. Powderly, formerly Grand Master OF
the knights of Labor and Commissioner General of immigration and now
Chief of the Division OF Information in the Bureau of immigration.
'"In the meantime" he said, ave should not be harsh in our criticisms
of the Italians as a race. Most of them ire sober, law abiding, industrious
people. There is no more danger to the country in Italian immigration
than there vas in the immigration of certain others races a comparatively
few years ago."
These statements were made by Mr.. Powderly in a discussion of the
work of the Division of Information, which was established by Congress
with a view to diverung to the agricultural sections of the country, notably
the South, a part of the constantly growing stream Of aliens now pouring
into the large cities of the East and Middle West.
Years ago." continued MI. Powdery, "a number OF counties in Penn
sylvania were terrorized by a society known as the Molly Magulres. I was
born of Irish parents in'the region Of that State where TIT molly Magures
were active The members of this society were a bad lot but II Would pe
unjust to say that they we're typical of the average in ne lrsh ace
"The Molly Mcguire Society was imported from ne Emerald Isle. :on
it's native sod it worked for freedom and WI a decent, patriotic organlza-
ton. AS known in this country it ws nothing more or less than n organ
!zation of marauding cutthroats. 1t was crushed to earth in Pennsylvania
when its leaders were hanged.
"The Black Hand Society will meet the fate that befel the Molly
1uire into the origin of the Black Hand. I found that o n its native heath
the Black Hand was organized for good-in fact, for the protection OF
women and young girls. An Italian who wrongs a woman and fails to right
the wrong is practically driven from among his fellows. The Jack hand OF
ostracsm is raise against him. The Black Hand in this country, a. in the
case Of the Molly Maguires, brought into being for noble purposes across
the sea vas prosttuted and converted to ignoble purposes when trans
planted in the United States. But it will soon pass into history IS Id the
Molly Magures."
If Chief Powderly executes as he has planned Uncle Sam will soon be
running the biggest intelligence Office o earth. All forms ot labor, from
household servants to skilled artisans, will be supplied on short notice. Mr.:
Powderly did not say o directly, but he intmated that the Division or
Information will solve the servant girl problem in the United States.

REPUBLICANS NAME FORT.
Resigns From Supreme Court to Run
For Governor in New jersey.


Trenton, N. J.-Justiee John
Franklin Fort, of Essex, was nomi-
mated for Governor by the Republican
State Convention in Taylor Opera
House. He is ex-Justice now. After
being brought before the convention,
but before he proceeded to accept the
nomination, he handed his resigna-
ton to Gov. Stokes, who sat on the
platform. Former Attorney-General
John w. Griggs was temporary n
permanent chairman.
Justice Fort obtained 1914 votes
on the informal ballot. That was
more than a clear majority, as there
we're 1157 delegates. A motion to
make the nomination by reclamation
prevailed.
The platform indorses the National
and State administrations Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, and Gov. Stokes
claims. all the credit for all good
legislation and good things done in
the State. 1t favors an amendment
of the United States Constitution pro-
viding for the direct election of Unit
ed States Senator's, promises reform
legislation relative to grand juries,
favors vesting in the judiciary the
power to review primary and general
elections, to order a recount and to
seat the properly elected candidate.
Proper legislation for the control Of
public utilities is promised, as is SINH
lar legislation on excise. The cleo
ton of Assemblymen by districts is
favored. Fiscal reforms and the con-
s%olidation Of departments and COM
missions of the State government are
declared wise.
The New Idea planks as to excise
and public utilities measures were
more specific and definite, but were
voted down.

1t Is the business Of the ktdneys to
remove from the blood all poisonous

times when they need a little assistance.
Peruna is exactly this sort of 9 remedy.
It has saved many people from disaster by
rendering the kidneys service at 3 time
when they were not able to bear their v
