Woman and Three Children Wan

years. Carmine was to meet them
at Ellis Island but after hours of
waiting and watching the husband did
not come. and the mother and three
little ones were alone in a strange land
with little money and no friends
After hours of wandering they
reached the italian quarter about Null
berry Bend and there found shelter
for time.
Constant inquiry for Carmine re-
suited in the report that in August
he had left New York for his home
in Italy to get his wife and children
In some manner some mistake was
evidently made and the two ships
bearing the divided family probably
passed in mid-ocean.
The woman was told that she could
live more economically in Brooklyn
and after a month in Manhattan she
again packed her belongings for the
trip across the bridge and started a
little news stand in South Brooklyn.

in Columbia street. But the cold wave
of the last week took the last of the

there was nothing to give him.

A SPLENDID EXAMPLE.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. with the
aid and cooperation OF the labor un-
ions, a tenants union numbering near
ly $4,000 has been formed here and
landlords who are charging exorbitant
rents will be blacklsted A clause in
the resolution which was adopted
binds the members TO move into va
cant lots in tents when the weather
gets warm. The members Of the or
ganization believe that the cause for
the high prices in the city for food
stuffs and other commodities are pro-
hibitive rents demanded by owners OF
stores and that the merchant who Is
compelled to pay high rent marks up
his goods correspondingly and that
the workingman shoulders the burden
of high prices.

LATIMER IS HANDS OFF.
The Junior Senator Thinks, However,
that People Want State Dispen-
sary Killed.

The correspondent Of the News and
Courier saw Senator Latimer and
asked his viesw concerning the state
dispensary question. The senator
thinks that the election results last
summer indicated clearly the desire
Of the people for local option between
county dispensaries and prohibition,
with the state dispensary killed.
"Personally," he said, "I am a
prohibitionist, but I have no desire to
interfere in the decision of the ques-
ton now pending before legislature
of South Carolina. So far as I am
able to from an opinion as to the mer-
it's Of the various bills submitted, it
strikes me the Carcy-Cothran measure
expresses the wishes Of the people as
indicated by results Of the recent cleo
ton. Practically this comedies to the
counties the right to settle the liquor
question according to the will Of tho
majority. No law can be properly en-
forced unless il has public sentiment
behind it,"

KRaw and Erlnger.

The management of the Newberry
opera house have had the assistance
of Klaw and Erlanger in a successful
season in Newberry, and the follow
ing editorial from the New York
Morning Telegraph will prove Of i'll
terest to Newbcrry theatre-goers:
The indictment of the Thetrical
Syndicate, notwithstanding all the
fuss and fury and threats Of Inter
myer, Belasco ct al, and the employ
ment by them of every means to
throw big scare and make a big noise
has resulted in nothing more serious
than large laugh. All along the
Great White Way on Thursday even
ing and Friday could be heard the
comments Of theatrical people to the
effect that the business OF the Shu-
bert trust did not demand much atten-
ton from those interested in it, be-
cause they were giving what would
be valuable time to business men to
attempts TO annoy their successful
/ competitors.
Everybody who knows anything
about the business manipulations of
the Syndicate of Klaw & Erlanger
! knows that in the end they have al
ways been victorious; and the wise
ones also know that Mr.. Jerome will
be contested point by point, the same
as he was when he brought the not
orious "John Doe" proceedings. 1t
! will be remembered that the "John
Doc' proceedings were set aside by
; the Court Of appeals, and that the
learned Judges their written opin-
ion, told Mr.. Jerome that the sub
poenas were of no more weight than
waste paper and we're suggestive of
"private ends and furtive aims. -
Mr.. Jerome might have continued to
be a little terror with his "John
Doe' proceedings had not Klaw &
Erlanger contested the legality of his
action. The citizens of New York owe
debt Of gratitude to these gentle
men FOR crushing this procedure.
Meanwhile misstatements will con-
tinue to be printed, founded in many
cases upon ignorance and in some on
malice, as, for instance, the rehash in
some Of the papers yesterday that
Sarah Bernhardt had consulted the
French Ambassador, a story which
first found its way into the New York
Herald, and which, in the same paper,
Miss Bernhardt herself denied over
her own signature. The story of the
SAT theatres is Of piece with this,
as is also the statement that percen-
tage of the gross receipts Of theatres
was exacted by the Syndicate for
booking. IF this matter is ever thor
| oughly ventilated the opera bouffe
performance of the recent incidents
and statements will apepar in it's pro-
per proportions.
