EUROPEAN DEPRAVITY IMPORTED
Thousands of Women Imported An
nuaIly--Crue Conditions Of Serv-
tude, but Not Many Innocent Vic
Tins.

Washington, Dee. 11.-Most revolt
ing are the disclosures Of an interna-
tional system of traffic in both the en-
forced and the voluntary degradation
Of men and women containing in The
report Of the sO-cailed white slave
trade" submitted to Congress by the
United States Immigration Commits
sion. Shocking as is the tale of yolun-
tary shame told in the report, i'm
mensely more so is the setting forth
OF well attcsted facts rs to the COM
puIsory consignment OF innocent i'm
migrant girls to an evil life.
The report says that the effect of
the Importation of immoral women
into this country is one of increased
degradation and death for the women,
and of contamination and corruption
by means OF the spread CT disease for
those with whom they come in con
tact.
The economic loss, coming from
the shortening of life and from the
expenditure of the large sums of
money in all the multifarious ways of
vice, and which is mere waste from
every point of view, is great" it says.
''It is unnecessary to comment on the
ruinous influences upon domestic and
social life or on its horrible effects
which come alike to the guilty and
the innocent"
The commission says that the inn
moral traffic is not confined entirely
to women. but 1T is clear that there
is a beginning at any la,e of traffic
in men and boys for immoral pur-
poses. "The need OF checking this
importation is especially great con
tinues the report. The yilest prac
tices are brought here from cont mem
tai Europe and beyond doubt there
has come from imported women and
their men the most bestiai refine
ments of deprayity."
The report draws a striking picture
of the system Of exploitation of alien
women after they are once in the con-
trol of their importers, how they are
held practically enslaved in infamous
resorts and robbed OF their earnings
and held in bondage OF debt with little
u no liberty. and when they attempt
10 escape are tipped off to the police
on bounded by a league OF men CO.
operating with the persons seeking to
anslaye the women.
While the investigation disclosed a
fraternity and cooperation among the
agents OF the traffic throughout the
United States. the commissioners re-
port that they were unable to find
any evidence Of "a great mouopoiistic

Erie, Pa, Dec. 14.--Nine men, froz-
Ell to death, covered with ice, were
towed here by the State Fisheries
boat, Commodore Perry.
The frigid fetters that bound them
kept eight of the men seated, stark
and stiff. in the little yawl in which
they had struggled to escape the fate
that oyercame them. The ninth of
the dread crew was prone, frozen TO
the yawl's bottom.
And there had been tenth paSsse-
ger on this hideous voyage. for in the
yawl's bow was found every stitch OF
clothing that sailorman on the
Great Lakes wears in this season.
There is little doubt that this tenth
man, seeing his comrades eyes star.

lake.
The nine CLASSY images were OF the
crew of the Bessemer and Marquette

ing since terrific wintry gale swept
modore Perry. with scores of other
boats, was searching for No. ,. She
had aboard thirty-eight men, of whom
six We're passengers. 1t seems impos.
sibe that any has escaped.
Said Capt. Terry Driscoll Of the
Commodore Perry:
"A heavy sea was running when We
sighted the yawl and we had some
difficulty in reaching it. As We made
her out with our glasses eight OF the
men were sitting mp in the boat, their
life preservers strapped about tacir
shoulders. The ninth man lay at The
bottom of the boat frozen to the Stat
flooring. The faces of the men were
bloated Their clothing was heavy
with frozen water. We did not try TO
take the nine dead on board as we
feared the yawl would capsize if our
men tried to board it,"
Thousands of persons swarmed to
the piers. AS soon as the fishboai
made fast force of men with tackle

One Comfort.

Dick was very clean little boy,
and dirt disguised him. One day he
found a poor little starved kitten
crouching in a ditch at the roadside
and he brought the wet, muddy little
waif home with him.
He took it to the hydrant and care
fully rinsed of all the mud, but the
shock was too great for the sick kitty
and the breath of life departed.
Dick brought her to his mother, who
exclaimed at the sight of the wet,
dropping kitten, "Why, Dick, what
have you done?"
"She was all mud and washed her."
Dick replied. "Oh, Dick" his mother
said, sorrowfully, Pm afraid she's
dead" Dick looked shocked and
grieved for moment, then his face
lighted up with a CLEAN of comfort
as he exclaimed:
well, she died clean, anyway

A French specialist has come to the

described as "lulling the wideawakes

are put to slumber."
1T Is perfect palace OF peace that

says the Lady's Pictorial. Here is
never disturbing sound. The silence
is broken only by the absolutely mo
notonous and soothing tick, took, tick
OF solid grandfather clocks, and the
scarcely perceptible drip of unseen
fountains.
Everything is seen through ceru
lean haze, everybody moves in list
slippers, the air is fresh but full Of
fain' perfume. Before the eyes OF
very refractory patients slowly revolve
colored balls, not the smallest rose
leaf being allowed to crumple in any
bed, each being so designed that there
Is no possibility of the body growing
weary. Here, in fact, the wooing OF
sleep has been made positive sci

They do say that one of the things

1t is not the trial now that 1t was
back in the good old days. In the
country districts folks lived in houses
of one or two rooms, or three at most,
so that when a fellow went sparkling
he had to face the whole family, and
you may depend upon 1t that the
whole family faced him. Sometimes
they didn't try to make life pleasant
for him. This was specially true of
the girls younger brothers and sis
tiers.

nor how mean you felt II she refused

Dogs Remarkable intelligence.

lie dog last fall for nearly a month
and for several days searched the
woods about his place zealously for
the animal, without success. One day
he tossed bone to another collie. In.
stead of gnawing 1t, he picked it UP
and started for the woods. He kept
turning his head, apparently to see ii
he was followed, and Jones concluded
to follow him. The dog trotted along
for about a mile and stopped at the
edge OF an abandoned well. He
dropped the bone over the edge o.!
the we'll Jones got ladder, climbed
down and found the dog that had been
lost. There was only about two inches
of water in the we'll, but the animal
