WOODBURY., July 1S.-Bad cooking
is far worse for man than hard drink
ing.
This is the answer to the question
raised by Chief Wiley, of the govern
this week in Atlantic City. The de-
cision has just been reached by the
Gloucester Pomona Grange after a long
and exciting debate.
Most of the women argued that drink
is worse than the worst kind of cook
ing, but the men showed positively that
a large majority of bad-cooking cases
led to indigestion thence to dyspepsia,
then bitters and finally whiskey. There
fore, poor cooking being the cause of
hard drinking, it was deemed worse for
mankind.
Mrs. William II. Hoffman, of Mickle-
ton, said that strong drink was the
greatest curse of all. She said it robs
one of his manhood and respect for
family, and that, while women are
blamed for poor cooking, men have the
power within themselves to correct the
drink habit, if they will but use 1t,
1T is said that poor cooking Will
drive man to drink, which SHOWS that
he is not as strong as he is represented
TO be, as no one ever heard of a woman
being driven to strong drink because of
poor cooking" she said. Il do not care
to say much against poor cooking, as
that makes me say things about my
sisters, as we are the cooks, and ] once
heard a man say that women are the
worst foes of women. I then and there
decided ever after to be on our side, if
possible.
'"I pity the woman who has TO live
with a man given to strong drink but
I also pity a man who is married to a
woman who gives him soggy potatoes,
muddy coffee, burned meat, sour bread
and heavy cake"
Mrs. Caddie Gill indorsed all that Mrs.
Hoffman said. and added that drink
was the far greater curse. and wished
that all who were in doubt would look
into some of the country hotels at night
and see the number of drunken men.
and then canvass the towns TO see how
many had Indigestion.

riet Brennan. an attractive woman of
% years, made an ante-mortem state
ment in the City Hospital today that
J. Martin Tilton, her boarder, at %
Pearsall avenue, first shot her and then

five years, and separated from her hus-
band for four years, lived with her
father and sister and her young daugh-
ter, Murie Brennan. The latter is
famous as Muriel Bruce child model.
Titon had been Mrs Brennan's ad-
mirer before she was married, and soon
after she started housekeeping he be-
came a boarder in her home. To this
her husband objected and left her.

that when she was dressing to go call

meet Edward Pintar, whom he consid +
cred a rival for her affections AS she
was passing through the hail. she said,
he stepped from bathroom and shot
her and then himself. Her father and
little daughter were in the house at the
time, but were downstairs and did not
witness the tragedy.

Signals Mixed, Big Boat Runs

Sinks Her.
YOUNG WOMEN KEEP NERVE

Thought Remarkable That No

Uncle Dan, named after State Treas
urer Daniel S. Voorhees,, bore down
upon them in the twenty-foot launch

The smaller boat, which contained

The Nell sank Immediately until the
top of her canopy caught on the bow
of the Uncle Dan, and was supported
there for a moment or two. The five
girls, although frightened, obeyed the
orders of Harry McElroY their escort,
and Captain David King, of the Uncle
Dan, and while the Nell hung in her
perilous position the young men man
aged to transfer them to the Uncle
Dan.
The boating party had been on the
lake only a short time when the acci-
dent occurred. They went An the new
launch at the invitation of McElroy,
whose home is in Dover, and We're sad-
mirlng the ease and speed with which
the twenty-foot boat slid through the
water when the Uncle Dan appeared
around q bend of land nearby.
From the statements given by Nc
Elroy and King, both vessels apparently
whistled at the same time, signalling
that they would go ahead. Each went
ahead at right angles. the captains, ap :
parently, believing that their signals
would be honored. When il was too
late to avoid a crash, one of the young
women was the first to notice the dan
ger and gave a warning scream a mo-
tnent before thu collision. She was pre-
vented from jumping by her compan-
ions. whose Let probably saved her life.
The ACCIDENT is considered remark
able, as no one was injured by splinters
or the force of the impact.

Would you rather have your son present

Hundreds of letters have been re-
ceived by the city editor of THE EVE
MING STAR in answer to the harrow
ing question. Some contestants criti-
else the action of the wife and mother,
believing under the circumstances
they would have gone to the aid of the
drowning man, leaving the boy to the
mercy of the waves. Others say che
did right. What is your opinion?
Mary A. Cantwell, of 4S5 South Sew
enteenth street writes:
II think Mrs. Sheppard, of Bridge
ton, acted more wisely than she would
have done, had she had time to reflect
| should have done as she did, Had she
gone to her husbands rescue, three
lives would have been lost instead of
one"
f. j. Hale, of 2O1a Ferry street,
thinks her first duty should be to her
husband. He writes:
IF viewed from the either the ma
terial or the sentimental standpoint, 1t
seems to me that the woman should
rescue her husband. 1t is he whom
she must look to for sustenance, and
he should claim her greatest love, even
above that of her child. Furthermore,
the sympathy and strength he could
give her We're the child the victim
would do more to ease the mothers
grieving heart than could the wall of
q fatherless child
Catharine Cunningham, of 102 Tiche-
nor street has solution of her own.
She says: /.
IF my husband We're drowning 1
would place my child on my back
which would leave my arms free to go
to him.
Il think Mrs. Sheppard was justified
in acting as she did," writes James ].

is nothing greater than the love which
a mother bears to her child"

to save my husband" writes Reader"
whose answer cannot be considered in

s'The child is flesh of her flesh and
blood of her blood; the husband may
have almost completed his life, while
the child's life is just commencing.
Therefore it seems right that the child
