MAKING
Making money isn't living.

Making money Isn't living.
Isn't knowing life at best,
Isn't thrilling TO the noble
And heroic in our breast.
Isn't climbing toward the standard
That your dreams set long ago,
Isn't growing ever broader,
AS a man should try to grow.
Isn't doing something better
Than the rabble of Nour time,
Isn't following the pathway
To the heights that are sublime.
Isn't winning love and friendship
Except such as toadies give
Don't keep merely making money
IL you want to truly live
Help n brother. help another.
Make life brighter, that's the call
What to that is making money? Z
Making money, that is all.

MURDERS DONE BY
 MORAL PERVERT

Cleveland, O., February 6.-That the murders of six women in Dayton were committed by a single individual is the theory of Dr. Charles H. Clark, former di- rector of the government hospital for the insane, Washington, and now superin- tendent of the Cleveland State Hospital for the Insane.
 "Circumstances identical in each case point to a single murderer said Dr.. Clark today. ''The facts in the Dayton series have been published broadcast. Yet no similar crimes have occurred else where. This Is an argument for single murderer.
 This monster is selective. His victims have been nearly of an age. Their cir cumstances in life have been similar. All were girls attractive in face and form.
 "The best evidence that all six mur- ders were committed by a single indi- vidual is the fact that in each case the victim was strangled.
 "This-the use of one method in several cases-is typical of the pervert.
 The Dayton monster has prototype in Jack-the- Ripper, the London murderer
 "Once the pervert has taken life In a certain manner, thereafter he cannot De satisfied except ip that identical way.
 "Perversion usually lasts through hie. As long as the pervert is free he IS bound to commit more crime.
 'In my opinion this pervert is not only sane, but responsible.'

ROOSEVELT TALKS
 ON JAP QUESTION

Washington February 6.-(Special.)- President Roosevelt had conferences to- day with Senators Flint of California and Nixon of Nevada and persisted il representations to them that the situa- ton will be critical if their respective states insist on legislation against the Japanese.
 The two senators have agreed to con- tinue their efforts to influence the legis- lators against action of any sort and went away from the White House to send latures, urging postponement for the present of any legislation.
 "T feel that we ought not to try to resist the strong appeals of the chief executive" said Senator Flint. "I agree with him that the time is inopportune for legislation now and I am going to do what I can to help him in his efforts. shall use the wires 10 reach my friends and urge them to indefinitely postpone the separate school provision and all other laws
 q do not see how we can do anything else, no matter what we personally feel, at this time. The President is talking in the interest of the nation at large and I am sure that Californias patriot ism will care for the nations interest before her own"
 During the entire Japanese controversy Senator Perkins of California has not been called in consultation by the Pres ident. He has sent for Senator Flint each time.

BANKRUPT LAW IS
 CHANGED LITTLE
Congressman Clayton Makes
 Futile Effort to Repeal It
SOME AMENDMENTS MADE
New Bill Prevents a Few Creditors From Forcing By Involuntary Pro- ceedings Debtor Into the
 Bankruptcy Court.

Washington, February 6.-After de- voting almost it's entire session to the consideration of the subject the House of Representatives today passed bill making several amendments to the na- tional bankruptcy law. MT. Clayton of Alabama made a desperate but unsuc- cessful attempt to repal the law, he and his supporters claiming that it had served its purpose.
 The bill Is designed to correct cer- tain inequalities in the administration of the bankruptcy law in various parts of the country, and amends the law by regulating the duties and compensation of receivers, in order to prevent excess sive fees. It also provides that any moneyed business or commercial cor poration, except municipal railroad or banking corporation can file petitoin for bankruptcy in another, and restored the language of the act of 1887, which has been fully settled by decisions of the courts. It provides further that, in any composition proceedings, it will not be necessary to have an adjudiea- ton where a composition is affected thereby removing the stigma of bank ruptcy, which always attaches under such circumstances. It prevents a few creditors from forcing by involuntary proceedings, a debtor into bankruptcy and then, after receiving secretly tn cir additional compensation, or otherwise adjusting their affairs with bankers, having the petition dismissed without 41 l. aF he o4b it enables a trustee, with the consent of the creditors, to appear in their be- half in proceedings in court connected with his discharge, thereby lessening the expense by separating it from the whole estate.
 It confers ancillary Jurisdiction so that all the assets of the estate can be mar shaled substantially in one court, there by obviatlng the filing of suits in diff ferent courts, where the property might happen to lie. It provides also that if a creditor has reasonable cause to believe that he was receiving a preference, that shall be bar to the debtors dis charge.
 MT. Tirrell of Massachusetts, who signed the majority report recommend ing the amendments to the bankruptcy law, spoke in support of them.
 Mr. Shirley of Kentucky, the author of the bill containing the amendments, took the position that it was historically in accurate for any one to say that the primary purpose of a bankruptcy law was to provide and avenue of escape for debtors. He made an exhaustive argu- ment against that contention.
 Others who favored the bill were Messrs. Keller of Ohio and Stafford of Wisconsin, while those who supported the Clayton amendment to repeal the bankruptcy law absolutely were Messrs. Landis of In- diana, Reid of Arkansas, Henry of Texas and Brantley of Georgia.
 On division the Clayton amendment was lost 11O to 142, but the Alabama mem Der forced a roll call on the final vote The vote resulted: Yeas, Ill; nays, 1S2, and the Clayton amendment was rejected, the effect of which was to continue in force the bankruptcy law.
