Jeremiah Eddy, 1924 LeClaire

lot adjoining his own home. Eddy
was a stairbuilder by trade, and
while not employed he had occupied
himself with the construction of the
house. He had contracted consider
able debt, and was being pressed by
his creditors, and this is thought to
have caused him to take his own
life. In addition to his financial
troubles, he has been depressed by
the serious illness of his wife who
is at the present time in a very dan

Advice to
Women
Stage Affords
Great Chances
For Girls
BY Olga Nethersole.
Noted Emotional Actress.

Many parents oppose their daughters IN adopt
ing the career of actress on the ground that the
stage is place where the temptations greater.
than anywhere else. To my mind this is erroneous
idea and wrong. ITO the pure all things are pure,
and there is good reason why woman should
not lead life pure and correct on the stage as
elsewhere.
If young woman is employed in a shop she, in
all probability earns salary not to exceed $40 a
week. and the majority of women employed in the
shops of the great cities from 81 to Sc weekly
Money-or want of moneyis acknowledged by all
students of ethics to be of the strongest factors
in the temptation of young women from the path Of
virtue We find the temptation, in that respect, far
less the stage than anywhere, for the very simple
reason that young woman on the stage, even when

ROOSEVELT AMBITION REALIZED.
EowIes Over Three Lions In Three
Shots, a Fourth Being Killed
by Kermit

Nairobi, British East Africa.-Four
lions were trophies of ex-Presiient
Roosevelt's camp in the Mau hills
Saturday night. and the two hundred
or more native followers were rejoic-
ing with the American party In the
celebration OF the unusually good luck.
The lions were bagged Friday, and
Colonel Roosevelt's mighty gun
brought three of them to earth, each
en- the first shot. Thus one OF the
presidents fondest ambitions has been
realized, and he is proud, too, that the
fourth jungle king fell before the rife
OF his son, Kermit who however. took
three shots to kill his quarry.
Both father and son are jubilant. II
was their first lion hunt, and so mag
nificent a kill was far beyond their
expectations, but lions have been plen-
tiful in the hills for the past month,
and the English hunter, w. w. Selous.
has been out for several days laying
plans for their extinction. How well
he succeeded can be seen OF the re-
suits of Fridays chase.

PROSECUTED BY GOVERNMENT
Special Attorney Declares There WIN

New York.-Criminal prosecutions
by the federal government viii be be-
gun as a result of the disclosures in
the recent suit of the government
against the American Sugar Refining
Company This announcement was
made by Henry Stimson. who is act
ing as special attorney for the govern
ment
Mr.. Stimson's statement followed a
conference with United States District
Attorney Wise in the latter's office.
"Of course, there will be a criminal
prosecution OF the guilty persons"
Mr. Stimson declared. There will be
no let up. but, on the other hand. the
case will be prosecuted to a finish.
"The corporation has already been
punished criminally by the $134,000
penalties imposed" he added THAT
was a punishment for criminal acts.
The other $4,000 900 was restitution Of
back duties accruing from false
Weighing. The thing for us to do now
is to get at the human beings behind
the corporation. either officer or en-
ploye. who have been guilty Of crimi-
nal acts, and punish them. We can
not tell when the prosecution will be-
gin, but 1t win be as soon as we get
our testimony ready to present"
