WOMAN KILLED HERSELF
Mrs. Grace Hubbard of st. Louis
Robbed Of Comedy Sketch by
Theatrical Thief.

st. Louis, Nov. 24-Mrs. Grace Hub
bard, whose ambition was to add to the
worlds laughter as a writer of comedies,
subtracted from it only tragedy. Heart
broken over the alleged theft of her most
elaborate sketch by a theatrical manager.
she committed suicide yesterday.
Her body was found early today in a
bare flat in an apartment building. The
janitor said Mrs. Hubbard told him of
the loss of her sketch.
q took the work to a st. Louis theat-
rical manager" she told the tanitor, land
he asked me to leave 1t for few days.
When l returned he said that 1t was not
available but later I saw my act per-
formed, word for word. In my disappoint-
ment 1 had torn up the original manu-
script and so had no redress"
When the police broke into the flat the
empty rooms showed how the woman had
tried to keep up appearances while walt
ing for some of her pen productions to
bring in financial returns. The furni-
ture, dishes, linen and jewelry had been
sold, the only articles left being bed
and a chair.

DEATH Turks IN THE
STREETS Of NEW YORK
Chauffeurs Run Over People and
Then Speed Upon Their Way
Rejoicing.

New York. Nov. 24.-Aroused by a pc
cuIiarly atrocious instance Of disregard
of human life by a chauffeur the police
commissioner today issued a call for a
mass meeting to urge legislative action.
Alice BIohen was struck down by a tour
ing car last night, and, when the driver
found her body clOgged the wheels, he
stopped to jolt the machine free, and
then made off at hig speed.
ut is time for radical change in the
law regarding speeding. 1t is time for the
citizens OF New York to hold d mass meet
ing and protest to the legislature against
this slaughter.
An engineer who runs harmless don
key engine in this city gets license from
the police department. If an accident
occurs and he is responsible, his license
is revoked. Why, even with the asphalt
rollers, the law requires that a man 90
ahead Of one of them and wave a danger
signal; but sixty horsepower automo-
biles run wild through the STREETS, and
what can we dO2
Arrest them? Bah! We arrest
chauffeur and he is fined So which he
pays with a laugh and goes out and does
it again"

LAND OFFICE RULING.
Area of Desert Land an Entryman Is
Entitled To,

Los Angeles, Cal, Nov. PA ruling
by the secretary Of the interior in a To-
cal case appearing to nullify an impor-
tant rule heretofore enforced as to the
area of desert land an entryman uIti-
mately is entitled to, has been received
by the register of the Los Angeles land
office.
1t is held that zone who holds land
under an unprotected desert land entry
is not the proprietor thereof within the
meaning of the statute. holding disquaI-
flied to make homestead entry one who
is the proprietor OF more than 100 acres
of land.
This apparently indicates that, al
though an entryman has made an entry
of $50 acres of homestead land, he still
may take a full $50 acres of desert
land instead of the 100 acres before per-
mitted

REAR ADM|RAES IN

No Chance of an Officer of
Flag Rank Being Sent to
Subdue Nicaragua.

Washington. Nov Acknowledgements
in the Nicaraguan situation today were
awaiting detailed information from
Managua. The vice consul at that
capital. Mr.. Caldera, is presumably
working on the case, but the state de-
Dartment has heard nothing from him.
There is gloom among the rear admir-
ais of the navy. Now comes along the
first international rumpus in which the
United States has. figured in years, and
it is with Nicaragua, a country entire
~ too weak to permit them to fight
with dignity and self-respect. Probably
the nearest a rear admiral will get to

should be war, will be Washington. A
lot of them are here now.
Officers of the rank of commander
would be in command of the little ships
that would be employed against Near
aqua.
New Orleans. La, Nov PA cable
gram from Panama today says that
Edgar S Harris of Columbus, Ohio, an
American commercial traveller who has
been touring Central America, de-
clares that several Americans are in
Jail at Managua and other places in
Nicaragua, having been arrested on or
ders from Zelaya.
Every American in business in Near
aqua who refused to contribute to the
war fund levied by Zelaya, was ar
rested and thrown into prison, Harris
says. A few of the Americans arrested
bought their way out of Jail by paying
the price demanded, but a number are
still held incOmmunicado.
Harris says it is unsafe for an Amer
lean to appear in the section of Near
aqua controlled by Zelaya. He was
himself subjected to jibes and insults
at Corinto and left the place on the
first available steamer.
Managua. Nov 24.-The report that
President Zelaya has put many Amer
leans in jail because Of their refusal
to contribute to the war fund is I'M
true. Americans here have been assured
by the government that they are per-
fectly safe There are no Americans
in iaiI at Managua, and there has been
no request, according to the govern
ment's statement, for contributions for
the war or for any other purposes.

"White Slave" Question.

With District Attorney Sims and Mr.
Mann the president also took up the
white slave" question. Mr.. Mann is
TO introduce a bill on this subject. Mr.
Mann believes that only the govern
ment can control the evil and the bill
he has drafted provides a heavy penalty
for the enticement of a girl for an i'm
moral purpose, thereby causing her to
go as a passenger over any transporta-
ton line engaged in interstate or for
eign commerce.
District Attorney Sims has been rec
commended for appointment TO the fed
