An Apt Suggestion

In the Times Magazine for Janu-
airy Charles Klein, author of "The
Music Maste.," "The Lion and the
Mouse" and "The Daughters Of Men, 3"
the most successful American plays
produced during the past three season
advances an interesting suggestion.
AS it is a matter of the greatest i'm
portance that there should be high
moral standing governing theatrical
Mr.. Klein thinks that
boards of physicians and metaphysi-
clans, not aldermen or political cen
sors, should be formed to exercise
control of the playhouses.
People" says Mr.. Klein, Ego to
see plays in a receptive mood, with
minds easily absorbent. They receive
in their sub-conscious selves certain
mental pictures, which may have a
very marked influence on the subse-
quent development of character
thus receive sub-con-
sciously the individual is very apt to
mistake for his own original thought.
In consequence, there is an equal
likelihood that we will be dominated
by them. An audience is lip an auto
hypnotic state, and the psychological
aspect of the influence Of presented
pictures of characters is of the ut
most Importance
At time when "Comstockery" as
a moral censor is a question more or
less in issue, Mr.. Klein's suggestion
will cause considerable discussion.

POOL CARS
IN ORDER TO AVOID CONsE.
QUENCES OF SHORTAGE.
Arrangements Made BY Several of
Great Railroad Lines to Work
Together.

Chicago, Jan. 15.-With a view to
relieving the car shortage and pre-
venting a recurrence of the present
trouble, the railroads having nearly
100000 freight cars have decided to
form a car pool. Before the move
ment is completed it is said every
large system in the country will Join.
The general scheme was adopted
by the railroads in Difference to the
report of Commerce Commissioner
Lane, which stated that much might
be accomplished by pooling freight
cars.
Arthur Hale. general superintend-
ent of transportation for the Balti-
more and Ohio, has been selected to
organize and manage the pool. In
general, freight cars of all roads
which are members of the pool will
be regarded as Eat home" wnen they
are on lines of any road which is a
member of the. pool. Under the new
pool is will! be In the power of Hale
to supply deficiencies from the cars
of any railroad which is member of
the pool.

Girls. BE Neat.

Neatness is one of the most at
tractive of feminine qualities.
1t is also one of the rarest.
Early and persistence must be the
training which carries the girl into
womanhood with her dump of neat
ness" we'll developed. Unless in
herently fastidious during schooldays
she is liable to drift into careless
habits which she never outgrows.
One girl may have a trick of leaving
shoes about her room. AS a mere
tot she was permitted to do this, and
as she grew older the untidy custom
was never abandoned, for the simple
reason that she herself did not notice
anything unusual about it, and proba-
bly, nobody else took the trouble to
correct he. Another slovenly habit
is leaving bunch of combings in her
comb, or on her dressing table, says
Woman's Life. Constant vigilance on
a woman's part is necessary in these
small traits, unless she would be
judged unworthy her birthright.-
daintines.

out fair sized logs and. if necessary,
inflict serious wounds with 1t.
AS your canoe slips quietly along
the bank of some good river, the
charm is derived both from the feel
ing of expectation regarding new
sights and chances at odd sorts of
game. You round bend, your can
aietero, or paddleman, stops and, as
you slowly bring into view the
stretch or vuelta beyond, probably
he says, "Lagarto, senior alli!allil !"
and when your unaccustomed eyes
finally follow his direction, you see
a big gator, light gray on the back
from dried mud and yellow below,
lying like a log on the farther mud
bank. He sees you, you may be sure
of that; in fact he usually sees every
thing that moves, and hears and
smells as well as he secs; he is in no
hurry to slide into water however,
for ne sees native canoes every day
andsthey never bother him--Dr. Hol-
ton @. Curl in December "Recrea-

time in complaining but proceeded
according to his own means.
The Paducah police will start a
crusade against the red light"
whenever a positive, vigorous public
sentiment demands il, and the truth
is, that public sentiment in Paducah
has not been stirred as yet into an
active force. OF course, there Is
none who will say a word in favor Of
the red light. but there are few who
would trouble themselves about it.
Kentucky avenue was evacuated, be-
cause residents of the contiguous ter
ritory demanded it. In other neigh
borhoods frontier committees" were
organized to prevent the evil houses
from locating there. but in each in
stance the movement was purely To-
cal and essentially selfish in design.
There are good men in every section
willing and eager to fight for the
of vice, but they are in
the minority.
There are still disorderly houses
in Paducah and the fault lies in her
who have and do permit
such a condition to exist, except
when it encroaches on their individ-
ual rights.

AMERICA RICHEST
NATION IN WORLD.

Chicago, Jan. ia dispatch
to the Tribune from Washington
says; "The United States is the
wealthiest nation i'm the world"
said close friend of President
Roosevelt yesterday, who had
just gone over remarkable Of
fetal report, which is soon 20 be
made public. He added:
"Our country has more actual
money, more gold, a larger vol
ume of exports, greater banking
facilities, richer farms, more pro-
ductive mines, more railroads,
more internal commerce, more
millionaires, more weIl-to-do
tradesmen more Independent
farmers, more highly paid labor
crs, and a greater distribution of
luxuries than any other nation
has enjoyed since time began"
To say that the total valuation
of the wealth of the United States
is $1O7, 900, 100000 is not
understandable, as hundred
billion dollars is such a pile of
money that the mind simply can
not grasp its meaning on the in
slant.
Probably the best way of IL
Illustrating the actual extent of
Uncle Sans riches is TO state if
he could convert all the assets
into money, he would have nearly
four times as much as is required
TO pay off the entire national
debt of all the governments i'm
the world, including his own.
Last year there was more than
$25,OOO,OOO in excess of the ex-
penditures.

SAVE DOG, BUT NOT OWN LIVES
"a Men on Ship Rescue Pet, But Stay

Cuxhaven, Germany, Jan. 15.-
The British ship Pengwern, Captain
Williams, from Taltal, Chile, Oct. 6,
for Falmouth with cargo of salt
petre. grounded off Scharporn, about
ten miles northwest of Cuxhaven, to-
day. Twenty-four men comprising
the crew, were drowned and her car
go is a total loss. The tug Vulkan
went to the assistance of the strand
ed vessel and passing closely to her
the crew of the Pengwern threw a
live dog aboard the tug, but disre-
garded the appeals to jump into the
water so that they might be rescued.
A heavy sea broke over the Peng-
wern and she disappeared from
view.

pure Blood Is Essential to Good
Health.


DR.. A. =. sun. the discoverer Of

that perfect circulation of blood con-
tanning the proper food elements for

Perfect circulation is dependent

Jungle-Hunting i'm Panama.

As there are as yet practically no
roads in the interior of Panama and
trails are nearly always tributary to
the nearest river, travel is almost en-
tirely done by canoes. The native
cayuco or piragua of the interior is
usually male of native cedar, narrow
fiat bottomed and ending in a fiat
platform-liker bow and stern. This
peculiar construction is to enable one
to land directly over the bow or stern
when, due to the nature of the bank,
it is impossible to more tnan force
the bow to solid ground.
A "trip up the river needs little
preparations as compared with a
camping trip in a cold climate. A
good guide with his big working
knife or machete can do wonders.
With this he can cut trail, clean the
camp site, make a shelter or mouse,
bedstead, mattress of thatch and
a cover for the fire-all fastened to-
gether with vine ropes which he cuts
near by. HIT can cut fmewood and

MAGNIFICENT CHARGE.

MAGNlFlCENT CHARGE.
In a magnificent charge to tht
grand jury at Valdosta, Ga, Judg,
Emory Speer of the United State.
District Court, gave wholesale adyic,
and powerful admonition.
THAT man and those men,
who pr Oh a ceaseless crusade
of acelcss antagonism, disre-
gard for constitutional law, and
prOpagandism of race wars, are
the deadliest enemies of the
Southern people. They degrade
our homes, our values and our
principles, and our humanity the
world around. They smirch and
belittle the Astounding blessings,
the underwriting prosperity,
which is at the door of these peo-
pie. Birds of ill-omen, like the
Harpies did the banquet in Vir-
gil. they are befouling their own
homes and the homes of their
people and giving to man
kind the world around that the
Southern States are the plague
spot of civilization, when no 9TH
er land is so admirably fitted by
its climate. its fertility or its
people to be the home of UNI
numbered millions of happy and
prosperous freemen.
Judge Speer then descended to
THAT we have at times
crimes committed upon our help
less ones which are more abom-
nible and execrable than langu-
age may portray, is true. On
this subject all Southern white
men-and, indeed, all decent

cent black men-everywhere are
of the same mind. But let us have
of the same mind. But let us
have a cane, lest by continuous
and intense agitation we incur
the danger of fixing in the minds
of the few savage and degraded
that this Is the most effective
blow that they can strike at the
white VINO are hateful to them,
and thus multiply instances of
the very crime which stirs few
er in the blood of age, and makes
the infant sinews strong as
steel"
The conclusion drawn by Judge
'peer Is well worth needing:
your bitter enemy is dispos-
ed to do you the very injury
which most you fear. Let the
people OF the South, deliberate
ly and calmly, and by whatever
expenditure may be necessary,
make sule of the detection ami
arrest and lawful conviction of
these criminals. Let them stamp
out the blind tigers and the ILL
cit distilleries. whose maddening
product transforms a bestial but
innOcuous nature into an animal
as deadly as may be found in

which he sprang."

Flat AND SENTIMENT

Now We shall see how far the fiat
of court goes in suppressing crime
without the enthusiastic cooperation
of the police, which means the COM
munity. The citation of Daisy Allen
to appear before Judge Reed and
show cause why she should not be
punished for contempt of court in
conducting disorderly house on
kentucky avenue in defiance of his
order, affords the first opportunity
We have had to ascertain what the
court can do peremptorily.
AT the time the order was entered
in circuit court we expressed appre-
hension lest the court might find it.
self unable to prove contempt, even
if the neighbors were morally certain
the courts order was being violated
in letter and spirit. The guilt or in
nocence of Daisy Allen in this partic-
ular instance is of little moment COM
pared to the larger question involved.
A neighbor of the woman makes aft
davit that she Is conducting a bawdy
house. He may be able to prove the
fact Of suspicious looking men and
women coming and going about the
place, but visible facts, creating
moral certainty when studied in their
natural environment, often fail to
convince beyond doubt when trans
lted into cold language.
We may happily be mistaken and
It may be that the vigilance of the
neighbors and the prompt action Of
Judge Reed Will operate as a deter
rent on those women inclined to slip
back to their old haunts when
things blow over" But such women
are essentially creatures of the po-
lice. That is not saying that they
ply their trade with the connivance
of the police; but they certainly exist
by sufferance. II is ridiculous to say.
that they cannot be driven from
city and prevented from pursuing
their wicked practices. It would be
as well to say that thieves and gamb-
lers, or any other sort of criminals.
cannot be suppressed. It requires
constant vigilance to keep them out,
but then, It requires vigilance to keep
out the other lawbreakers.
And. now, a word for the police.
That the red light" exists in any
city is not so much the fault Of the
police as 10 is Of the citizenship gen
orally. The police, like other citi-
zens, have been accustomed to look
upon the 'red light" as a necessary |
evil" A policeman. so conscientious
that he would club the senses out Of
criminal who should even suggest
a deviation from the strict line of his
duty, would pass by a disorderly
house on his beat 20 times a day
without making a report or an arrest
unless ordered to do so, for exactly
the same reason that the average citi-
zen would pass 1t by unless II an
-loyed him. We are too prone to say
policeman ought to pull that
