LIBERTY BELL WILL
COME TO PORTLAND

A jealous council has been the cause
of all the anxiety and contention
over the possible coming Of the lib
erty bell TO Portland, but April the
present Philadelphia council goes out
/ of office and the new council will,
according to a letter received at Rose
Festival association headquarters this
morning, vote to send the bell to
Portland
Joseph C. Fisher, a prominent float
builder and decorator, is the man who
has relieved the minds of the festi-
val management, says the Journal.
In a letter received this morning by
George L. Hutchin, Mr.. Fisher assures
the latter that the bell would come.
although no official statement has
yet been issued" the letter reads,
"the bell will go to Portland and you
can look for an official announcement
of this about the second week in
April"
The incoming council of Philadel-
phia will get the junket to this city
as the guard of honor or the bell and
according to the outgoing body felt
it would not be good policy for them
to vote any such trip for their success
sors in office. April the present
body will leave office and Mr.. Fish
er has been assured that one of the
first acts of the council will be to
authorize the sending of the bell to
Portland.
The probability of the BELLS COM
ing to the Rose Festival has given the
festival an invaluable amount of ad- |
vertising. Newspapers all over the
country have referred to it both
through their news columns and ed-
itorial columns and a national dis
cuss!on arose as to whether or not the |
crack in the bell would be widened |
by subjecting it to the long trip
across the continent. No definite
route has as yet been selected by the
committee for the shipping of the
bell as several other affairs have ask
ed for the privilege Of having the big
bell in their towns and this cannot
be settled upon at once.

to him hy my mothers mother to be

sharpening his pencil with which TO
cut me in pieces, for | heard him say
that my mother knew nothing about
writing and he supposed the thing
was full of rhetorical blunders." When
ne began TO read me he wore a bored
look but he had read but one para

As he read on he forgot who had
written me, and when he had finish
ed he exclaimed
BY thunder"
Then he called my mother and her

mother:
Where did you learn to write Eng

sent back again to my mother, who
had hoped that her uncle's personal
effort would insure success. She was
nearly as much disappointed as at
first.
And so | continued TO go from one
publishing house to another without
attention of an intellectual looking
editor who wrote this criticism:
If we We're looking for literature
would recommend the publication of
this book. But as we are looking for
best sellers" | would decline it.
However, my mother got nothing
but the printed slip when was re
turned, though il was coucned in just
as polite terms as the first
Meanwhile a publisher told my
mother that she would better write
something "startling"--a trife erotic,
he said. SO innocent was she that
she thought he said erratic She
went 10 work and turned out my
brother. Poor boy He was deformed
il, frame and intellect from birth.
Mother was very much ashamed of
him and wouldn't acknowledge him
| by publishing him under her own

nom de plume and proved second
/ best seller.
My mother continued to give me all
her affection Notwithstanding the
! taCt that my brother made so much
money for her She was now deluged
with requests for something from hei
gifted pen" She sent me out once
more, and ! was accepted at once. but
she refused TO permit my publication
under the name which had been ap.
pended to my crazy brother. The pub.
fishers would not issue me unless sh,
consented TO this They offered hel
large sum with that name to me
but she was obdurate, and so / was
obliged 10 remain in obscurity
Mother would write nothing more
and at last. not making any money
which she needed. she wrote the pub
Usher who had wanted me that he
could have me to publish under her
fictitious name. He wrote her in re
ply that the public had forgotten her
former book, that the character of all
fiction had changed and that if he
were to publish me under any name
whatever he couldn't sell a thousand
copies. He added Your first effort
could only have been sold as by the
author of a second best seller.
And so my only opportunity passed
without my getting out into the world
My uncle, who is now old and philo
sophie, says that these best sellers

YOUNG ELLA GINGLEs
MATCHES HER MEMORY
Against Sharpness of Lawyers in ALI
Day Gross Examination.

Chicago. July Ella Gingles, q
young Irish lacemaker, was on the WITT
ness stand in Judge Brentano's court
room all day today, matching her
memory against the sharpness OF the
lawyers who were trying to confound
her on cross examination in her trial
for stealing lace from Miss Agnes
Barrette. her former employer.
All afternoon the girl was cross ex-
amined bv Assistant States Attorney
Short on the story she related I'm the
morning of how she was attacked by
two women and a man In a bathroom
of the Wellington hotel Feb. 49, This
story was similar in many details to
the one she gave last Friday concern
ing another alleged attack on her Jan.
in a room in the same hotel. Miss
Agness Barrettte, the late Mrs. Cecilia
Kenyon and a masked man" figured
as the assailants in both cases.
Beyond a few fearful moments when
some climax in the disgusting rn-e OF
degeneracy was reached, the girl did
not hesitate In her answers. She told
OF the most impossible situations with
apparent candor and frankness.-
The court room was cleared today OF
all but those having a direct interest
in the case by the order OF the judge.

CONNECTICUT BLACK HANDLERS
HELD IN HEAVY BONDS.
Group Of Seven Italians Who Have
Operated in This State.

New Haven, July 7.-Bench war
rants were issued from the superior
court today removing from the juris-
diction Of the city court seven Italians
who have been arrested from time to
time by New Haven officers at differ
ent places and brought here to stand
trial on serious charges. The asser-
tion is made that these Italians are
members OF BLACK Hand" group,
which has been operating among the
italian people of Connecticut for some
time, and which heretofore has had its
headquarters in New York There have
been many assaults and murders
among Italians and it is now claimed
that little by little the entire scheme
of the Black Handlers In connection
with these mysterious affairs has been
uncovered. The group is said to
have practiced extortion under threat
of violence for long time. The po-
lice have had assistance from New
York officers In making arrests and it
is expected number of others are to
be seized. On the warrants just issued
Frank Guidi and Antonio Massari
were held in $500 bonds each on the
charge of conspiracy with three others
to kill Guiseppi Tudisco at Walling-
ford. Some of the men are held in
bonds as high as $4,000 on charges of
attempted murder Thus far the po-
lice have given no information as to
the evidence against the men.

NINETY MATTERS REMAIN
FOR HOUSE TO ACT UPON.
One Sign Of Approaching Adjournment
of Connecticut Legislature.

Hartford, Conn.,, July 1.-THE work
of the judiciary committee will close
tomorrow and their final report will
be made to the legislature; which is
one Of the few signs of an approach
ing adjournment. During the past
week or two, the house has shown
disposition to transact business than
waste time in talk which had no pur-
pose and the result has been that they
have made good progress with their
calendar. 1t is understood that there
are now only about ninety matters to
be acted upon and with few after
noon sessions the house could get
through with many of them in short
order.
1t was learned today that when the
bill introduced by Senator Heinemann,
which abolished the state barber COM
mission, is reported, the reply will be
a favorable one, and the work of in-
specting barber shops will be done by
the local health boards and the bar
bers themselves will have to pay the
cost of inspection.
AT the hearings on this bill it was
shown that the work of the commits
sion had been inefficient and that the
results had been far from what was
expected when the present law was en-
acted.
Among the bills to be reported ia
vorably is that doing away with the
present system of voting and intro
ducing the Australian ballot. The use
of the Australian ballot will do away
with all pastors and ballot peddlers.
