MATR|MONY IS
RECOMMENDED BY JUDGE
Only in This Way Can Girl
Change Her Name.

New York, Aug. 14.-Suggesting to
Miss Lichtenstein that matrimony
is simpler method of changing her
name than by an order of court, JUS
tice Golf, in the Supreme Court, de-
MED her application to drop the name
of Lichtenstein. The court said in his
decision:
"Matrimony would be a simpler
method to effect a change of name
than the present proceedings. Appli-
cation denied"
Miss Lichtenstein told the court
that she desired to adopt the name OF
Blanche De Lumen for social reasons.
She said that her brothers had, by per-
mission Of the Supreme Court, chang
ed their name from Lichtenstein to
that Of De Lumen and that 1t was en-
barrassing to her to be introduced at
social functions when she accompan-
led her brothers as Miss Lichtenstein
while they were known as the Messrs.
De Lumen.
Judge Golf said these reasons ARE
wholly unsatisfactory" so that SO far
as his honor Is concerned. Miss Lich-
tenstein's only method of relief from
that name is by marriage.

A base on balls, sacrifice and a
hit gave Pittsburg one run in the first

NOW RETURNING

Optimistic.
SITUATION is IMPROVING,
MANY MEN UNEMPLOYED, BUT
GREAT LABOR LEADER THINKS
THAT BETTER CONDITIONS ARE
YET TO COME.

Boston, Aug. 14.-Charles NJ
Schwab, president of the Bethlehem
Steel company and John Mitchell. the
better times were near, when they
were ienterviewed. Mr.. Schwab said:
II firmly believe that period OF
prosperity is on the way which will
surpass anything which we have yet
experienced. The country has already
begun to recover from the depression.
THE steel business is showing re.
newed strength. The foreign demand
for our products is the best We have
ever known. The people need have
no fear whatever as to the ultimate
outcome.
Wall street feels and indicates new
conditions before they are felt any
where 1t augurs we'll for business
and industry in general when the
stock market Is strong"
Mr.. Mitchell said:
While there are more men out OF
work than there should be under nor.
NAL conditions, believe the situation
ands now out Of work will soon be
re-employed.
The labor conditions of the coun-
try at present are fair. BY fair.
mean they are not normal, they are
not what they should be after the per.
iod of unusual prosperity the country
enjoyed until recently.
Mills, factories. railroads and ma.
chine shops of all kinds felt the blow
of the unusual depdession, but l be-
lieve the change which has taken
place during the past two months is
a criterion of still better conditions to
come.
In the last two months many men
have gone back to work and I look
to see many more re-employed before
long.

Without prolonged or ceremonious
adieus, the committeeman departed
from the domicile OF tho mayor very
much perturbed. This morning Mr..
Ross and Mr.. Nicholson appeared be-
fore the board of public works and
presented the resolution. Mr.. Nichol-
son acted as spokesman. He told the
board he would like to have 1t read
and consider the resolutions. He de-
clared they represent tho sentiment of
the large majority of the citizens and
this point is not lost sight of. The
board was told again the street car
company deems the use of North
Twentieth as the most advantageous.
The speaker stated also, he believes
four-fifths of the persons who signed
the remonstrance against placing the
line on North Twentieth street will
withdraw their names, now that they
have seen the despoilation in Glen
Miller park. Gentlemen, we did not
come here to argue" he said, but
simply to bring the matter before you.
We implore you to take steps in this
matter to crafty the wishes of the
majority Of the people whom you
we're selected to epresent." Mr.
Nicholson advised the board not to
dispose of the strip of ground desired

REPUBLICANS
in COLORADO
Hearst News Service

Denver, Colo, July PA meet
ing of Aahe Republican state central
committee will be held here tomorrow
for the purpose of fixing the time and
place for holding the state convention
for the nomination of state officers
The convention will probably be held
about September 10.
Party leaders assert that Colorado
will in all probability give the nation
al ticket greater support than in 1904,
when Roosevelts plurality over Parker
was 1852. Democrats, however, de-
clare that the administration of Gov
ernor Buchtel, the preacher chief ex-
ecutive, has greatly weakened the Re-
publican party in this state and that
the popularity of Bryan will make this
a Democratic year in Colorado.
