TO HELP INJURED AUT0IsTs.
First Aid Society Of Automobile Girls
.S Formed In Denver.

7rirst Aid Soeiety OF Automobile Girls
Formed In Denver.
A society for first aid to injured au-
tomobilists has been formed by girls
Of Denver's younger social set. They
have decided that because auto acct
dents are becoming so frequent wo-
men should know what to do when
members Of their auto parties are
hurt. 1t is suggested that the society
may become national In its scope.
Among those who are attending the
lecture given by Dr. William Edmon-
son Of Denver are Emma Phipps,
daughter Of the Pittsburg millionaire;
Mrs. Harold Kountze Of the New York
family of bankers, Miss May Kistler,
Miss Edith Thomas and others.
The young women are learning to
reduce sprains, bind up fractured
limbs, make and apply bandages and
stop the flow Of blood by scientific
methods. The idea suggested itself
when one of the girls sustained a
sprained ankle. It did not receive
proper treatment at the time, and as q
result the girl suffered severely.

BLOWING I'M THE YULE.
Quaint Christmas Custom Of an Old
l.- Town In Denmark.

Quaint Christmas Custom OF an Old
Town In Denmark.
Blowing In the Yule from the grim
old tower that had stood 800 years
against the blasts OF the North sea
was one OF the customs of the old
town that abide, however 1t fares with
the Nisse; that know, says Jacob A.
Riis Id his article entitled ssYuIetide IN
the Old Town" in the Christmas Gem
tury. At sunup, while vet the people
were at breakfast, the town band
climbed the many steep ladders to the
top OF the tower, and up there in fair
weather or foul--and sometimes Ii I
blew great guns from the wintry sea-
they played four old hymns, one to
each corner OF the compass, SO that no
one was forgotten. They always began
with Luther's sturdy challenge, "a
Mighty Fortress Is Our God, !" while
down below we listened devoutly.
There was something both weird and
beautiful about those faraway strains
In the early morning light Of the
northern winter, something that was

child's imagination the angels songs
on far Judean hills. Even now, after
all these years, the memory Of It does
that. It could not have been because
the music was SO rare, for the band
was made up Of small storekeepers
and artisans who thus turned an hon
est penny on festive occasions Incon-
gruonsly enough, / think the official
town mourner, who bade people to
funerals, was one Of them. 1t was like
the burghers' guard, the colonel Of
which. we thought him at least gem
eral because of the huge brass sword
he trailed when he marched at the
head Of his men-was the town tailor,
q very small but very martial man.
But, whether or no, 1t was beautiful.
i have never heard music since that
SO moved me. When the last strain
died away came the big bells with
their deep voices that sang far out
over field and heath, and our Yule was
fairly under way.

Mr.. PEMsRoKE's POSITION.

To The Salt Lake Herald:
referring to the connection of my name
and that of my son with illegal voting
on the bond issue.
There are two sizes to every story.
Ours will be presented at the proper time
and place, and l would not encroach upon
your space except to refute a statement
OF Harry Joseph's appearing in Tribune
columns Saturday follows:
LAS far as Herbert and Adrian Penn
broke are concerned, / told them that
they could not vote. and yet they tried
to do SO, with the result that they were
arrested. Both of them were in the
Fourth ward and attempted to vote at
the Bransford. They swore in their votes
and that is the ground for the arrests"
Mr. Joseph said nothing whatever to us
until long after voting; then he called me
on the phone, stating that number of
the boys were down from the Fourth
ward wanting him to get warrant for my
arrest and asked me, what about it %
made no statement TO him. / voted
before ! was challenged. my son Adrian
was not even challenged. Had our votes
been objected to before voting we should
probably have taken legal advice, mot
Harry Joseph's in any case). As 1t is. the
public and our friends know that we as
sumo a perfect right to vote upon q ques-
ton of public finance, as indeed the d.
rect Official representatives OF all corpo-
rate Industrial and capitalistic enter
prises that pay taxes should do upon such
questions. II. PEMBROKE.

PEcoRp PRICE FOR A DRINK.

Many a young man has scattered his
patrmony to the four winds of heaven
by induiging in the liquor habit. and
many others, older in sin and stronger
of stomach. have spent fancy sums for
wine at dinner parties and not been
financially ruined thereby. But these
are cases where the drinks come early
and often, and then some. In Maine.
under the penalties possible. single
drink of ''red-eye" may cost 5000.
The Pine Tree state has been dry for
years. and while il has always been
possible in some localities to assuage
ones thirst with something stronger
than Adams ale, the laws have been
made more stringent with each sue
ceeding year until at present to be
caught in the act of selling would in
volve a fine, in proportion to the Of
Tense, such as that inflicted upon the
Standard Oil company by Judge Kene-
saw Mountain Lands.
For dispensing a cup that inebriates,
whether ii cheers or not, the bootlegger
or keeper of a blind pig" both of
which designations being purely west
ern, could be indicted on the grounds
of search and seizure, common seller,
nuisance, drinking house and tipping
shop; could be fined four or five thou
sand dollars and kept in Jail for the
rest Of his natural life, providing he be
of middle age when convicted. This
seems about. the record price for one
drink.
The clamping down of the lid on
Sundays in Salt Lake is mere trifie
when compared with the drastic laws

SAGE SCOTCH ADVICE.
0.ondon Tribune.)

Mrs. Humphrey Ward is against votes
for women. She has Joined in London an
anti-Suffrage league. In a circular letter
she says:
THE league promoters consider that
each sex is a sphere as important as the
other, and they earnestly deprecate the
tendency which has been in recent Tunes
exhibited in some quarters to underesti-
mate the Importance of the sphere which
specially calls for the care and devotion
of a woman-the home.
Nor could women undertake the physl-
cal responsibilities of enforcing any law
which by their votes they might cause
TO be enacted And if any law came To
be popularly regarded as woman-made'
not only might the law be treated with
disregard and contempt, but 1t might drag
down respect for the law in general"
A suffragette sneered at Mrs. Humph-
rev Wards queer logic the other day:
81 knew the prolix lady was against
votes for women" she said. AT iunch-
con of suffragettes in New York. by
means of a parable. she pointed out her

TAFT'S COAL BIN SECRET
Boston Herald.)

1t took a good deal of digging back into
ancient history to find out what some OF
the things were which tickled Mr.. Tart
and the other rs Yale men so immensely
For instance take the reference to the
'Old South Middle Dormitory-
With passages through every floor,
Where. like a mole, we'd skin through
hole
Rather than out the door.
8 Now, that hole ii seems, was In Billy
Taft's coal bin This bin abutted on an
other bin which opened into room on
fine opposite side of the Old South Middle.
Taft roomed with George 3. EDWARDS,
who is now a judge in Russeilvilie, KY
The Taft-EdWardS room was popular
Joint. as the Yale boys speak or their
rooms. and sometimes-not often, mind
the lights were kept burning later imam
they ought to have been. For there was
not much noise. And, then, IL was the
business of the proctor TO see what was
doing. a.,
But the funny thing about 1t was that
he could never find anything DONG IN
"RiIl'' Taft's room. When he got there
only "Bill'' and is roommate were visible,
and they were studying like sixty.
That hole in the coal BIN was oiscoV-
cred after Taft graduated.

THRockMoRToN's REToRT.
(Harner's Weekly. ]

Major ThrockmOrton, an innkeeper of
Louisville in ante-bellum days, was one
of the most interesting characters that
ever helped to make life worth living or
history worth reading
Here are some of his deeds: He elected
Charles Dickens, the great English novel;
ist from his hotel; he wore an umbrella
out on man who stared at him impu-
IDENTIFY, and he made at least one retort
worthy to be handed down from genera
ton to generation.
The Dickens affair is known to all and
the umbrella episode to most of the old
Kenauckians. The man was staring in a
very offensive way to the maj or, who. ac-
noyed at his persistence, stepped up to
him and remarked: My friend, I'm just
an ordinary man, although l look so
grand To which the reply came: You
don't look so id grand either" and
then the trouble began.
But the most notable feat of all was
that retort previously referred to, and
which is here quoted from contem-
porary chronicle.
to his hostler (the man had insulted one
of the majors guests; that little Ar
kansas pony"
I'm let you know" shouted the big
man. that / am not from Arkansas. and
my horse is no Arkansas pony, either"
And then in a still louder tone he called
out: -'fll let you know that 1 am

The major answered: And I'll let you
know that | am gentleman
"And I'll let you know yelled the big
man. that | am Colonel. Wilson. OF

"And I'll let you know" vociferated the

by his defenders. have been dragged
along-and this is without disrespect to
the courts which are tied hand and foot.
If convicted in the district court, there
would have been motions for a new
trial; then appeals to the supreme court
for a new trial on some ground of err
ror. Ultimately the case might have
dragged along until the needed wit
nesses died or moved from the jurisdic-
ton of the court. And even IL con-
victed and the verdict sustained by the
supreme court, there would still remain
the sensitive board of pardons to reckon
with, when deluged with petitions by
the manifold friends of every person
sentenced to die for murder. Should
every factor favor the administration
of justice it would still be year or
two after the arrest before the execu-
ton could possibly take place.
The difference is not due to the peo-
pie in the two countries. They are
much alike in thoughts and aspirations
and conduct. The courts in the United
States are just as able and honest and
devoted to their duty as those of the
Dominion, but their method of proceed
ure is faulty and the result is that in
stead of administering equal and exact
justice they afford unending advantages
TO the malefactor and too often his
freedom from needed punishment
