been taught that alcohol is poison, and
that II is sinful to partake of beer That
is a terrible mistake. None of our prede-
cessors have raised a finger in protest

who drinks moderately is the healthier
man. Then. we must teach the young

Little Tim" Says What He
Would Like To Do

Sullivan, who, as vice chairman of the
board of aldermen, is occupying the may
or's Office in the absence of Mayor Nc
Clenan, and President McGovern, of the
board of aldermen. has announced three
things he would do if he was the real
mayor for six weeks. They are:
First, 1 would open up Coney island
on Sunday so that the poor people, who
have to work the other six days in the
week, could have a good time on the
only day left to them.
Second, 1 would close certain streets
on the east side to traffic during the
afternoon, so that the children who live
in the crowded tenement houses could
have a place to play, where there would
be no fear of their being run over by
trucks and automobiles.
Third, 1 would make New York a
home for New Workers by placing at the
head of city departments men who I'M
derstand conditions here, and know what
the people want"

T'ILL DARK HORSE
BREAK DEADLOCK?

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, May 19.-There is
growing feeling manifesting itself in
Springfield that important changes in the
senatorial lineup are at hand. 1t is not
generally believed that the shift will come
today nor perhaps this week, but an eff
fort to break the deadlock and elect
senator before the adjournment is the I'M
question purpose of the Hopkins forces
in the legislature.
There are those who insist that the
Hopkins men hold the balance of power
and are sufficiently strong to withstand
any possible coalition against them.
When the break comes the oldest hands
at the political game assert that it will
be without warning and that a short Is
minutes might decide the long drawn con-
test which has waged since the begin
ming of the session.

NEW YORK, May 2O.-John F. Wood
overdid his acting as an insane man, in
the hope of avoiding trial on the charge
OF killing his niece and by his own adj
mission that he was feigning insanity, he
will be placed on trial tomorrow.
When Wood was first arraigned a few
days ago he appeared in court with his
vest on backwards, a knotted handker-
chief over his head and carrying hiI
shoes. He mumbled a jargon and there
were so many evidences of insanity that
the court was led to believe there were
too many for reality.
Thereupon two celebrated alienists were
appointed and after They had examined
Wood and talked with him frequently. he
yesterday broke down and adm&ted that
he was not insane, but had been pretend

from the top Of hfs head to the tips of
his canvas shoes. Every line of his
long body indicated power, vitality,
health. Both men were surprised by
the eager, sincere manner In which he
greeted them.
"Glad to see you. gentlemen" he
said. He was head taller than
either, coatless and hatless, lean but
brawny figure In white crash trousers.
