CHASES PAIR OF
THIEVES; Gets ONE
JOHN STEVENSON FINDS MEN IN
ACT OF STEALING COPPER
SLABS.

After a chase of several blocks John
Stevenson the veteran vessel agent,
and Patrolman Joseph Kolb, arrested
a man late Wednesday night, who was
seen attempting TO load several slabs
OF copper into row boat. A compan-
ion of the man caught got away.
| Copper thieves have been busy az
the foot of Randolph-st, for several
days. and Wednesday night Mr.. Stew
enson remained on watch. He was not
on duty long before the two men APP
peared. and he at once called for
help and gave chase. The man caught
gave the name OF John NJ. Herr. and
said he lived in Windsor. He was
formerly employed as fireman on
the steamer Garland. he said. Near
the edge of the wharf. ready TO be
dropped into their boat, were three
slabs of copper. weighing 720 pounds.
These were brought to headquarters,
and will be used as evidence against
Herr.
On Tuesday night two slabs, weigh
ing 4S0 pounds were stolen from the
same place. Copper is now worth Ia
cents per pound.

PLAN LEGISLATION
TO REGULATE
BROKERS
GUY A. MILLER AND J. D. MCKAY
FAVOR LAW PROVIDING FOR
DEPOSIT OF GUARANTY FUND
WITH STATE OFFICIALS.

New state legislation regulating
brokerage Offices may be brought
about as result OF the Cameron
Currie & Co. failure. Guy A. Miller.
candidate for the legislature. and
John d. Mckay. candidate for sena-
tor in the Third district. both favor
some new legislation that will oper-
ate to safeguard customers dealing
with brokers.
Il would favor law providing
that brokers be compelled to deposit
a guaranty fund with state officials
before going into business" says Mr..
Miller. Then they would be on the
same basis. as banks. and could not
speculate with their customers money
or hypothecate their customers stock
without some guarantee that losses
would be made good.
1T does not seem possible to cut
off margin trading but the brokerage
business can be made safer for the
public. A margin deal is just the
same as an installment real estate
deal, in which a man pays certain
amount down on lot. IL real estate
goes up, he sells again without pay
ing the remainder, transferring his
right and taking his profit"

Work That Wlns.

He who would succeed in any under
taking must first understand that in
telligently directed work is the only
kind that wins. He who starts out to
accomplish things for his home town
cannot blunder along unless he en-
dangers that which he sets out to do.
Commercial clubs too often fail in &C.
complishing good because of lack of
system in the efforts made There is
an old saying: "Too many cooks
spoil the BROTH" This axiom is ex-
emplified frequently by the organiza-
ton which attempts to carry out great
projects without the proper system
for doing the same. Work must be
rightly pursued or 1t comes to naught.
Each worker should have his particu-
lar part to perform, and for this part
he should be selected with view as
to his fitness. Concerted effort right
ly made always wins.

Loea! Dealer Sometimes to blame.

Thousands of dollars go out of JEFF
ferson county each year in connection
with the mail order business, to the
loss of the local dealers and manu-
facturers. 1t does not help very much
to appeal on the ground of patriot
ism to those people who buy of outside
dealers. as purchasers go where they
think they can find the best bargains.
Every one must recognize the fact
that the local dealer cannot prosper
without local trade, but there are a
lot of people who fail to govern them
selves accordingly. Orders for goods
are sent to Syracuse or New York or
Chicago which could have been as
cheaply bought in Watertown, but this
is frequently the local dealers fault.
The great success of the big mail or
der houses has been built up almost
wholly by advertising. Fortunes are
spent in letting the people of the coun-
try know what they have to sell. Lib
eral space in the newspapers and mag
aZines is used to exploit the mail or
der business in addition to the cata-
logues issued. These are the avenues
through which the houses draw a
large part of their business.
Is there not a lesson here for the
local dealer? Cannot he hold some Of
the business which goes to the outside
mail order houses by judicious use Of
the columns of the local newspapers?
The Watertown newspapers have a
large circulation through the towns
and rural districts of northern New
York. The Standard believes the local
merchants and manufacturers could
divert much Of this trade to them
selves II they took the proper meth
DDS. The Standards interests are
wholly with the local dealer and these
suggestions are made with the firm
conviction that he has remedy for
his loss of trade in local Advertising

GOOD IN ODD SLEEVE FAD.
Useful Suggestion for Girl Who Re
models Her Gowns.

This odd sleeve fad is fine for the
girl who remodels her gowns:
Much of the trouble in making C
gown look well lies in the sleeves.
Often one can change a dress which
is old in style or which one thinks not
becoming into an entirely different
style of dress by remodeling or put
ting in entirely naw sleeves.
1t is not necessary in the least that
IL be like the frock; 1t can be differ
ent, so long as 1t Is more or less the
same color as the trimmings of the
gown.
A not, voile, silk or CASHMERE dress
can be remodeled with sleeve made
: entirely of lace and chiffon. The
foundation is cut smaller than the
usual dress sleeve at the top, and this
upper portion is covered with eight
lows of lace, about three,quarters oi
