OHIO.

With the introduction of the Ameri-
can electric railroad system in Great
Britain, the straphanger at once
I0omed large in the street car. The
Englishman, as everybody knows, OBJ
5ects to being crowded, and so parlia-
ment has been called upon to end the
straphanging nuisance" A bill has
been introduced in the house of COM
mons, says Baltimore Sun, and IL it
is passed there will henceforth be no
straphangers. The Englishman who
rides in a street car will be sure of a
seat. The aisles will be kept clear.
There will be no overcrowding. In
matters relating to their personal
comfort Englishmen seem to be very
egRcting. Why shouldn't the strap
hanger be welcomed as a manifesto
tion Of the age-of hustle, hustle and
the dell take the hindmost? The
Londoners show how much they are
behind the times when they insist
upon excluding from a street car
every person who cannot get seat.
They are slow, very slow, in London.
They will never be Americanized and
modernized until they welcome the
straphanger and sacrifice comfort to
expedition and the "get-there" spirit.
WIN the Londoners never cease to
demand all they pay for?

FOUND IN A BARREL
WAS THE BODY OF KIDNAPPED
ALEX HoENIG.
THE BABY HAD BEEN STRAHGLED.
Parent and Form.I Domestic Cues
toned and Nearby Plumber Is
Held For the Coroner.

Cleveland, O., May 4.-Tbree-year
old Alex Hoenig, missing since Mon.
day night from his fathers home, 1922
Scovill avenue, was found dead,
strangled with sawdust in a barrel in
a back yard two doors away by a
neighbor, Mrs. NJ. Leopold.
Two hours later the boys father,
David Hoenig, a grocer and milk deal.
er; S. L. Schwartz, a plumber, and
Mary Leiby, a domestic employed by
Hoenig, were taken to Central police
station, where they told Chief Kohler
and the detective force what they
knew of the case. Schwartz was lock-
ed up at the Central police station to
be held as a witness before the coro-
ner. No charge has been filed against
him.
That the boy was strangled with
sawdust was proved at the autopsy
held at the county morgue.
This discovery gives an entirely new
angle in the case. It proves that the
boy did not meet death in the rear of
the Hoenig home and probably indi-
Gates that he was killed in the shed
in the rear of a meat market-the shed
before which the barrel stood in which
his body was found. 1t indicates,
moreover, that he was killed Thursday
night, after he had been returned to
the vicinity of his fathers home by
the persons who had him in their
charge.
Drs. Schultz and levitt, performing
the autopsy, found that the little fel-
lows mouth was full of sawdust. More
than that, they discovered that the
sawdust had been forced down into
his throat, filling the windpipe. This,
they declared, had caused death.
Chief Kohler put David Hoenig, S.
L. Schwartz and Mary Leiby, the last
named being a former servant of Hoe
mig, in the sweat box. The examina-
tion of Hoenig was most severe. Out
side the room the protestations of Hoe
mig and his declarations that he knew
nothing of the persons who had killed
his son, could be heard, mingled with
the weeping of the agoniZed man.

Heroic Boss, Hoping To Save the I'm.
periIed Men, Remained In the Pit
HE Has Not Been Found.

Charleston, w. Va, May 2.-In an
explosion in the Whipple mine, Fay.
cite county three men were killed,
four badly burned, and five Others
entombed, are probably dead. Those
known to be dead, their bodies having
been recovered are: Hudson Burgess,
motorman; Ras Wiley, sprinkler; Ira
Kelly, driver. The missing: Isaac Pei.
ter, mine boss; Robert Armstrong,
Raleigh Tucker, Charles Burgess,
William Wilton, colored. Henry Mil.
ton, stable boss, and three others were
so badly burned that they were sent
to the State Miners hospital at Nc.
Kendree. The mine is shaft Of 450
feet deep, with two openings, and be-
longs to the Dixon interests, the same
that own the Stuart, where the eXplo'
sion occurred last January, killing sc,
and the Parral, where % lives were
lost in February of last year.
The explosion occurred at the main
return heading, about 1900 feet from
the foot of the shaft, and is supposed
to have been caused by heavy shot,
Ninety-four men had been at work, but
80 had come out. OF those left inside
53 made their way out through the
second shaft The others are account.
ed for as killed, wounded or missing.
The mine was not badly damaged, the
chief harm being done outside, throw
ing out the cages and wrecking the
frame work about the mouth of the
shaft.
There were no marks upon the
bodies of the men who were killed, and
it is thought death was caused by suf.
location. 1t is said that they would
have been brought out alive had they
been discovered 10 minutes sooner.
The mine, which was ventilated vita
q fan having a capacity Of 125,000
cubic feet a minute, was regarded as
one of the safest in the region.
Rescue parties will work throughout
the night in an effort to save, if possi-
BILE, the entombed men. The cage and
fan are now in working order.
Isaac Pelter, boss of the mine, hop
ing to save the imperiled men fighting
for life, remained in the pit after the
explosion, closing up the air courses
in an effort to force fresh aid into the
gas-filled chambers. He has not been
found.
A telephone message just received
from Scarborough says that at o'clock
q rescuing party was able to enter the
mine.

WHERE WOMAN IS SUPERIOR.
Vegetarian Springs a Few Facts on
Astonished Companions.

"Since the first of the year." he
said, Il haven't had smoke, and I
haven't taken u drink"
Everybody looked at him with
ama2emcnt, respect and awe. How
strong-willed he must be, they said;
how ascetic, how spiritual! 1t was tre'
mendous.
"And yet" said a pale vegetarian,
"all women, or at least 80 per cent. OF
them, maintain this wonderful absti-
nence their whole life long. Why
don't you praise them for it?"
With his medicated handkerchief
he brushed the sneer from his lips.
I'VE men," he said, beside women
are hogs. We call our women silly;
we won't give them the vote; but the
average woman lives on higher
plane than the average man. She
thinks of nobler things than money
grubbing, drink, tobacco, food.
did you ever hear your wife
growl about the cooking? Did you
ever hear of a woman epicure? No;
woman is above the hoglike pleasures
of the table. She is above such a
tobacco and whisky seance as is now
going on here"
