WlLkESBARRE, Pa, August 3O-A
linen collar saved the life of Edward r.
Connerly at Glen Summit yesterday. He
was doing some work along the railroad
track and was run down by a Lehigh Val
ley locomotive. He fell directly before the
front wheels, but projecting bolt caught
his collar and held his head few inches
above the rail while the locomotive dragged
him 300 feet.
He was half choked and tainted when re-

Classification of Authors.

One OF the government experts, who, by
the way, was at one time an editor Of Ridg-
ways Magazine, gave out the following:
The work of classifying and labelling all
the authors cannot Re done in day. 1t is
necessary to read their books with some

pie who has a delicate, sensitive tempera-
ment, and is a man Of fine taste, was hand
ed by mistake lot Of advertising matter
written by George Harvey for Harper's
under the assumption that it was to be is
sued In a book. In a short time he was
completely knocked out, and he had to be
fed on Addison and Keats to bring him
back to life.
But the work is progressing as rapidly as
possible and we hope to get things in good
shape for the fall trade.

TAELAW OFPURE LITERATURE
HOW IT WILL AFFECT THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
Labels That Reveal the Constituents
of the Books Made by the
Great Writers.
Washington Correspondence Of Life.

Washington Correspondence Of Life.
The pure literature law went quietly
into effect today, there being no popular
demonstration.
Its provisions are widespread and
sweeping. 1t is expected to put u great
many authors out Of business. The prac-
tice of placing SO many adulterated books
on the market is so common that a revo-
luton in methods Is necessary.
Hereafter under the law, all authors
will be obliged to print on the cover Of
each book the formula 1t contains. Ex-
perts employed by the government will
must agree.
For example, Henry James recent book
is labeled as follows:
This book contains
One-half per cent saturated solution OF
simplicity. Rest unknown.
1t is rumored that Robert Chambers
novels have been prohibited. as they con-
tain nearly IS per cent alcohol. sold under
the head of pure reading matter.
Mark Twain's latest book on Christian
Science is labeled thus:
Vituperation. ..............5S per cent
reason. 20 per cent
Fun. ............".....15 per cent
Brotherly Love. ............ NO trace
Good Plot, Bad Writing.
Winston Churchill, when seen at his
home in New Hampshire, expressed him
self as on the whole pleased with the
new arrangement. 1T puts us all on
level, he said, and where we belong.
This is what the government proposes to
label my next book, and I'm trying to
get EN- to modify it; but I'm afraid It's
no use:
Bad writing. SO per cent
Miss Laura Jean Libby was interviewed
at her home in Brooklyn.
L am the one author" she said. who
has nothing to modify My goods are la
be1ed just as they always have peen, and
there Will be no necessity to make any
change Here is the loveliest Label am
having printed. It's beautiful"
Gush and Sentiment.
The formula was ss follows:
Gush ........................3O per cent
Sentiment ..................3 80 per cent
Virtue reigns ............. 40 per cent
Lyman Abbott was quite indignant.
II shall have to 90 out of business" he
cried, IF they are going to enforce this law.
Here is what they say Of my last book of
sermons
The label reads as follows:
This book contains 80 per cent of dope.
Cyrus Townsend Brady was almost in
tears.
What hope is there for a hard working
author under this new law he exclaimed.
1T is necessary for the government ex-
perts to read everything, and 1 am told
that In my case it will take several years
to do this. In the meantime, as a general
label, they insist upon the following:
Plot 100 per cent
Lack Of interest ..........1O0 per cent
George AIDE was resigned.

Married Men Defeat Singles.

Yesterday afternoon, at Luna Park. the
married and single employees Of Hecht &
Co. engaged in a game of base ball. which,
If it did not prove to be a scientific exhi-
bition OF the national game, at least was
productive OF a large amount of enter
tainment for both players and spectators.
When the smoke Of battle had cleared
away It was found that the benedicts had
defeated the bachelors by the score of ID
to 7. Some Of the former are said to be still
running. Among the many near-brilltant
features of the game should be mentioned
the pitching of Bladen for the married men
and of Schaub for the "lonesomes," as we'll
as the excellent all-around playing of
Holcer, Breslau and Nell. Mr.. Bennett
acted as umpire.
The winning team feels good enough to
accept challenges from any store team In

"When ! woke up / vas in bed ;,
she continued. screamed and
screamed and screamed"
During the whole of the time his
wife was OF the stand Thaw had NOT
taken his eyes from her until this
portion Of her testimony was reached
Then he buried his face in a hand
kerchief, and his body shook with
emotion. His eyes were tear stained
and red when he next looked up.
Whites subsequent conduct, as re.
lated by Mrs. Thaw, was cynical in
the extreme. In spite OF this confess
sion ThaW insisted that he would
marry her IL she would love him, de-
claring that no one could blame her
for her misfortune. They quarreIed.
and she came back to NeV York.
By a most adroft maneuvre of the
defense all this astounding story told
by Evelyn Nesbft Thaw was intro
duced In the guise Of Information i'm
parted by her to Thaw. As such it
was admissible only az tending to
demonstrate its influence upon the
sane or insane condition OF his mind
ata later period.
Just before the midday recess was
reached and after Mrs. Thawhad told
of the struggles of her earlier life.
how she had eventually come to pose
for artists and then vert on the
stage, Mr.. DeImas tried to get into
evidence a letter Thaw wrote and
gave to Miss Nesbit, addressed to F.
W. Longfellow, his legal adviser in
this city. After recess, by a series of
adroit moves, Mr.. Delmas succeeded
in having the letter admitted as tend
ing to show the condition of Thaw's
mind after the confession the girl had
made to him. It was a rambling
communication, and to 1t was pinned
another slip of paper, on which was
written: "P. S-If you can't read
this, don't trouble"
In the third letter admitted and
read, Thaw spoke of the strain he
was under, and gave evidences of it
In many rambling, almost incompre-
hensible statements.

The total amount contributed by
citizens OF the United States for phil.
anthropic purposes during 1906 falls
far below the record Of, some other
years. Those who look for a progress
sive annual increase in charity con
tributions must be disappointed. Dur
ing the last year a total OF $51, 23o, 294
in large contributions was given to
educational establishments, art gal
@leries, hospitals and asylums. The
b-enefactions for these objects reach
ed the great total OF $107, 800, 900 in
1901. The variability or such Stats
tics is shown by the statement that
the contributions in 1890 aggregated
$47, SOC, 200. 1t is estimated that the
small contributions to charitable uses
in 1906 would aggregate not less than
$4,000, 600, swelling the total phil.
