sure everyone that this is the f1rst
time Mr.. Austed's picture has ever
appeared in a newspaper magazine
or any other printed record OF
thought.
II is not because Mr.. Austed dis
likes publicity that his picture has
not appeared, but heretofore editors
have always put him off with one
excuse or another. The last time he
tried to have his likeness used the
editor promised him faithfully TO
run 1t just as oon as the paper
added a comic supplement.
1t will undoubtedly be of intense
and burning interest to a large seq
ment of the reading public to know
that Mr.. Austed never takes cream
with his grapefruit. He Is as ec-
centric in his personal habits as in
his literary style. He always dresses
himself, never relying on the serv-
ices of a valet.
Mr.. Austed is a dreamer rather
than a mai of action. Even when
he has a great deal of work ahead
of him he can lie abed of a MORN
ing for hours without moving a
muscle = just day-dreaming and
thinking various and sundry
thoughts. OF his early life little II
known, as Mr.. Austed is very ret
icent about it. The author f1ared
up and got mad for a minute when
the editor of ION the Side" insisted
upon a few facts.
Mr.. Austed says If "Under Flam-
ing Arcs is successful, his fortule
is made. as he "a write that kind
of stuff till the cows come home.
Watch for the first chapter Of this
unusual serial.

a very good move, but cont you
think The other petty actions taken
against this and other building
firms IS d matter of small persecu-
ton?
/ happen, through previous con-
neotians, TO Fave some knowledge
of the building trades, ana can state
positively that these men take no
chances in regard to accidents to
~passersby. AS Tor their own work
men, that is n OF che many risks
that govern tho scale of their
wages. Their greet experience
makes them better qualified to judge
whether there is safety or not. and,
considering the fact that they
always try 10 avoid damage suits,
I think they should be given a little
leeway. More especially so In the
case of the aforementioned build
ing, because of the extreme lack OF
working ground.
Don't you think projects of this
kind should be favored? If we are
to start in and hamper the con-
struction companies bidders on
buildings will be chary of figuring,
and if they do 1t will be a matter
of taking into consideration the
greater expense of meeting these
charges of negligence and satisfy
ing a public that knows nothing of
which it is complaining. Very re-
specially, FAIR PLAY.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
Dear Sir--f have read in your
valable edition that Mr.. Shipman
still proposes to carry out his threat
by removing all show cases, but is
in doubt as to the newsstands,
which are claimed to be a public
necessity. Practically all news and
fruit stands pay a revenue for their
privileges. and the merchant GER
tainly pays a revenue by the c

AN APPEAL FOR THE
STANDARD Oil CO..

from the decision of the United States Circuit Cccrt of Appeals
ordering tie Standard Oil Company of New Jersey to dissolve, as
an Illegal organization, and an order TO that effect has been
obtained. aixtysi1 alleged errors in the Circuit Courts opinion
have been Gelyod out by the Standards lawyers, the principal
point raised being that the lower court had no Jurisdiction. The
errors alleged are all technical, but the atless attorneys for
Standard Oil cannot see how the company can be characterized
as a trust and e monopoly in restraint of trade under the terms
of the Sherman act. If the Supreme Court shall accept the view
taken by the Standard attorneys the Sherman antitrust act will
be fairly put out of business. For if the Standard Oil COMPANY
cannot be prosecuted under that act what concern in the United
States can?

New county projects have
a hard road to travel to ct
thro III the Legislature. a
proposition is to be sub
mitted to the Legislature
NO NEW SMALL COUNTY
CAN BE CREATED

this winter to have Passaic township, in Morris couaty, and BED
minister and Bernards townships, in Somerset county, organized
as a new county. The combined populations Of the three town.
ships by the last State census was 1923, and the total property
variation is only about seven million dollars. The smallest county
population in the State in 1905 was Cape May, with 1880. 1t
would not make any material difference in the State whether a
county had ten thousand or four hundred thousand population if
the county was not a unit of representation in the State Senate.
But the creation of a new county with a small fractional popu-
lation would be a serious thing. 1t would add one more vote in
the Senate to the smalcounty majority of that body, which stands
in the way of the establishment of senatorial districts. The large
counties control the House of Assembly because the representation
here is based on population, not statutory geographical lines, and
another small county.

AN OF
r ASTOR'S JEWELS

The jewelry left by will to her daughters is appraised at a quarter
of a million. 1t is probably worth nearer a million. A fvestrand
necklace of pearls owned and sometimes worn by Mrs. Astor ON
social occasions was the envy of other society women. Tiffany
finds that among the splendid pearls of the necklace were ninety
limitations. Pearls of such a size and shape are difficult to obtain
at any price, and the woman who could pay any price for a gem
was compelled to resort 70 manufactured ones to piece out her
atrinket.
