TIN SOLDIERS
Protest Before Chicago Women's Club Against Practice of
 Mimic War By Children
GLAMOUR OF WAR

Chicago, Feb 12.-Mrs Lucia Ames Mead of Boston, who addressed the Chicago section of the Jewish council of women yesterday, believes the tin soldier, the plaything of happy child hood, is foe of international peace.
 Mrs Mead told her audience that the movement to end international duelling" was the most important thing in the world to-day, and asked them to use their influence in its be- half. At the conclusion of her speech she said:
 Above all things, let me urge you mothers not to allow your children to play at war with tin soldiers and toy cannon. Why should you per- init the boy who you hope will be- come gentleman to pretend that he is killing people and to cut whole platoons of infantry at one volley? Do not. beg you, let the children mimic this ghastly business of violent death.
 T do not disapprove of drums or bugles or other military parapher- nalia, which can be us l without in- dulging in make-believe warfare. But the pretended battles of tin sol- diers throws the glamour of romance about war for the child and warps his imagination"
 The organization decided to re- quest Secretary Root to instruct the American delegates to The Hague next summer in favor of the program adopted by the interparliamentary union.

Interest in Parliament.

London, Feb 12.-That the mem bers of the house of commons regard the political situation as being es- pecially interesting was evidenced by the keenness shown to secure good seats for the opening of parliament to-day. On the stroke of midnight the competitions began and thereafter a steady stream of legislators visited the house of commons and placed their cards in the places they had se- lected. Later in the morning the customary search of the vaults of the houses of parliament was made by the yeoman of the guard, without the discovery of anything pointing to a repetition of the gunpowder plot. Large crowds gathered within the precincts of parliament to wit ness the arrival of the distinguished personages.

AGAINST FRANCE
Senator Beyeridge Says It's Time For Americans 10 Speak
 Out on Question
AGAINST ALL RELIGION

Washington, Feb 12.-In discussing the controversy between the French government and the vatican, Senator Beveridge of Indiana speaking at Car roll institute last night said:
 With the purely governmental controversy between any nation and its citizens or subjects we Americans, as nation, have nothing to do. On such questions, we Americans, as in dividuals may have our personal opln- ion, but not an official opinion. But when any government on earth grounds its policy in an attack on re- ligion itself then it is time for all men who believe in the gospel to speak out in protest. For such an attack is the beginning of movement against all religion and it's end is to dethrone the Saviour of the world, as the sOv- ereign of the spiritual and moral em- pire of mankind. 1t affects all churches equally.
 ''I wonder if men who talk so bold ly of exterminating our faith under stand what would happen if that faith were dethroned. How long do you suppose the republic would last if all the churches were turned into factories and all the preachers and priests, ministers of the same gospel, ceased forever their holy vocation? How long would society itself en- dure? Men have rebelled against the intolerance of dogma; men should no less rebel against the intolerance of politics. Men have resisted intOler- ance of the church. both protestant and Catholic; men should no less re- sist the intolerance of the state, whether republican or monarchial.'

Trained Nurse We'll Known h This City Committed Sul-
 eide in New York
LEFT WRITTEN NOTE
Told Those Who Found IL 10 Notify Her Brother Who Lives at 1O6 IriOn Street in
 This City.

Annie L. Kipp. trained nurse. who has a brother, Leonard Kipp. living at 1O6 Irion street, this city. and who is employed as a draughts- man at the Chase Rolling mill, com mitted suicide to-day in New York by jumping in front of subway train. The identification of the wo- man was made through a memoran- dunn book which was found near the scene Of the tragedy. The fly leaf of the book bore the name of Annie l.. Kipp, and another page had this written on it: Should anything happen to me, notify Leonard Kipp. lO6 Irion street. Waterbury, Conn.," There was New York address, too. GO West Eighty-third street. At this address it was learned that she had been employed as nurse at the Ger man hospital, but of late had been associated with William B. Brice. q New York lawyer, in the manufacture or steamer chairs. It is understood at the house where she lived in New York that her business venture had been very successful. She entered the subway station at Sixty-sixth street and walked nervously up and down the platform.
 She threw herself directly in front Of a local train and was hurled flf- teen feet and was instantly killed. Her relatives in this city were noti- ned by q Democrat reporter this af- ternoon and they were very much sur- prised at the young wOman's actions. They had received a telegram noti- flying them that someone named Kipp had committed suicide, but they could not understand who it was, until giv- en the information this afternoon. She had visited many times in Waterbury but had never had a residence here.

Up to last mid- night about 1000 delegates had ar rived and nearly as many more are expected Prominent canners inter- viewed expressed the opinion that the new pure food law would be benefi- cial to them.

"The people want bet ter goods and this law will insure their getting what they want. They will have more faith in what they eat and this will lead to their eating more canned goods"

Honor to Lincoln.

Boston, Feb 12.-Honor to the memory of Abraham Lincoln was paid generally throughout New Eng land to-day by the raising of flags on public and private buildings and exercises of patriotic nature in the public schools. Oflcial notice of the day has been taken by Governor Cur tis Guild, jr, of Massachusetts who has issued proclamation recom- mending that merchants close their stores if they could do SO without too great inconvenience and suggesting that the schools hold but one session. The latter proposition came too late to be adopted by the school of this city wher the school committee had arranged with prominent Grand Army men to assist the teachers in a Lincoln day" program.

Four Rare Paintings.

Philadelphia, Feb 12.-Four rare paintings are now abandoned as lost in the fire by those who are resort ing the art collection which was kept in Lindenhurst, the country home of John Wanamaker, which was burned last Friday. The paintings are Our Lady of Madrid" and "A Lymph" '" by Murillo, Two Angels Holding a Garland of Fruit" by Rubens. and 'The Saviour" by Benjamin West. It is probable that in adjusting the loss with the fire insurance compan- ies an arbitration board of the best known painters will be created.

Joy Line Steamer Struck a Three Masted Schooner
 Near Block Island
BOATS WERE MANNED
Dead Bodies Washed Ashore al Liie Saving Sta'ion-Some Rescued in Boats Died Before Reaching
 Shore..Death List Large.


 CT Larchmont of the Joy line with many passengers on board. bound from Providence for New York, sank of the northwest side of Block Island early to-day after having collided with the three-masted schooner Har- ry Knowlton of Quonochontaug. Pas sengers and crew from the steamer took to the boats, but it is feared that some may have lost their lives either by drowning or freezing as the tenn perature a4as below zero. The schoon- CTS bow was cut away and her cap- tain ran her ashore west of Quono- chontaug to prevent her sinking. The crew of seven men, including Captain Haley, reached shore safely in their own boat.
 The cause of the collision Is not yet known. The night was cleai, but there was a strong northwest wind and the sea was rough. It was intensely cold throughout the night, the thermometer lowering about the zero mark early to-day.
 When the first boats came ashore from the steamer 1t was found that some of their occupants were dead. In the first confusion 1t was not known whether they had been pulled from the water after having been drowned or whether they were frozen to death.
 The Knowlton, which halls from Passport, Me, was bound from South Amboy for Boston with 475 tons of coal. She lies on sandy bottom, but is full of water and 1t Is not known whether she can be foated.
 The Larchmont left Providence at about 6:3O last night for New York, in command of Captain McVey D.. Providence. The chief engineer was Robert Gay of Bridgeport, Conn. She carried crew of about fifty and had on board number of passengers and a miscellaneous cargo of freight.
 The Larchmont registered S96 tons net. 1.605 tons gross. She was 252 feet in length, 37 feet in breadth and 14 feet in depth. She was built at Bath, Me, in 1885.
 The Harry Knowlton registered PIT tons net and hailed from East port, Me. She was built at Totten- vile. N. Y.. in 1890. She was 12S feet in length. 33 feet in breadth and II feet in depth.
 After the collision Captain Haley of the schooner headed for land. The crew, by working at the pumps. man. aged to keep the Knowlton afioat UT til they reached Weekapaugh. There the schooner touched bottom and the men quickly abandoned her. After a hard row they reached shore and were cared for at the Quonochontaug life saving station.
 The schooner fioated from the point where she had first touched and drifted until she brought up on a sandy bottom not far from the Quon- ochontaug life saving station.
 Captain Charles Mitchell of the North End life saving station ofr which point the Larchmont is sunk estimates that between fifteen and twenty bodies already have come ashore from the steamer. Up to 10:30 o'clock several boats had land ed and other were making slow prog ress from the wreck toward shore.
