TO PLEASE HIS PARENTS,

Love for the old parents caused John K. Findlay of Altoona, Pa, to discover a new use for the phono- graph. On the sixtieth anniversary of his parents. living in Glasgow, Scotland. he Overcame the regret that he could not be present by sending home his voice. He talked and sang into a graphophone and sent the rec ords home. At the celebration the first selection was his song, Be Kind Tae Aud Granny" Although she had not heard her sons voice for thirty years, she quickly recognized it in the song. Its mae ain boy, Johnny" she cried, springins to her feet
 The other records were run off one after another, bearing messages of love in speech and song.

WHY c. M. HAYS QUIT THE
SOUTHERN PACIFIC

Mr.. Hartman was fond of authority.
He could not live in an atmosphere
where some one had equal power with
himself. When C. p. Huntington died.
c. NJ. Hays. a graduate of the Wabash
and a first-class railroad man. was
made president of the Southern Pa
cific. A little later Hartman came
into control, Directly thereafter Mr..
Hayes resigned.
What was the matter?" a sympa-
thetic friend asked.
Well" replied Hays. 81 didn't think
the Southern Pacific should be COM
PEELED to pay $4,000 a year for an Of
flee boy. When Hartman got through
working. there wasn't anything left
for me to do. / couldn't buy a ton of

THINK THIS OVER.
Mans Inhumanity Toward Man Is One
of the Greatest of Crimes.

Here is a story that will. be of in
terest to the humanitarian. We are
inclined to think it contains con-
siderable amount of truth:
Il was discharged from San Quen-
tin six weeks ago l was given
new suit of clothes Chat w3s brand
ed prison all over; but no matter
about this). l was given clothes to
cover me. IS in cash, and the good
wishes of the warden and the man
who drives the van. Very good. you
say, for an ex-convict? Well, listen
10 this: On the day ! was given my
freedom. my picture, with my de-
scription, was sent to every sheriff
of every county in the state: This
man is free; may be coming your
way. Look out for him. Now, there
is nothing dangerous about me, or, at
least, there never was. 1 was a
street car conductor. a decent enough
sort, when one night got drunk and
hit q man. Unfortunately for both of
us, il nearly killed him. l got four
years. / paid the penalty. Should
be let alone now, or not? / gave
more than four years out of my life
to the state. / lost my health. For
that reason, / thought that. being
free | would go out into the coun-
try and work there until / got my
strength back. From county to coun-
ty | have been told to move on
The first man to whom / applied for
work gave it to me, then i took my
honorable discharge out of my pocket
and showed it to him. He picked up
a cane that lay across his desk and
yelled at me: You get out of here
or I'll knock your brains out"
1t is needless to draw any facile
moral from this condition. The facts
are intricate. The difficulties are
many A bitter situation faces the
prisoner who wishes to lead an hon
orable life after his discharge. A
delicate situation faces the man who
would employ him. The employer
knows the rule; it requires some sac
rifice to principle and humanity on
his part to test the particular case
in order to avoid helping to crush
man who may be one of the excep-
tions. Sentimentalism in the treat
ment of crime is not to be encour-
aged. but injustice is still worse

SLEUTHs
RAPED BY COURT
Manufactured" Evidence Is
Cause of Dismissal of Hess
berger Divorce Suit.

In an opinion filed today, Vice-Chan-
cellor Emery denies the application of
John Hessberger, provision dealer, of
l56 South Eighth street. for an absolute
divorce from his wife, Annie, who is
living with her mother at the latter S
home in East Orange. The opinion in
substance states that the case of the
husband depends largely upon the evil
dence of number of private detectives
from a local agency whose pay de-
pended more or less upon the furnish
ing of proof of guilt on the part of the
defendant.
Naturally they were anxious to
make their money, and as result their
evidence and reports cannot help but
be colored by such an arrangement, y
says the court.
4 The opinion concludes with the state
ment that the court is unwilling to de-
pend upon such evidence in making out
case and dismisses the bill. :
When the matter was up on hearing
before the vice-chancellor about two
months ago, on motion of former Judge
Guild, the court refused to allow the
detectives to remain in the room while
the testimony of the other witnesses
was being heard. the only conclusion
to be reached being that their stories
in this manner might be piecemealed.

ALDR|CH DEF|ES
HIS TARIFF FOES
Refuses to Listen to Senators
Who Want the Schedules
Amended.

WASHINGTON, Aug. avery
amendment offered to the concurrent
resolution to correct the tariff confer
ence report so as to make reductions
in boots and shoes and harness and
saddlery apply to manufactures from
calfsI1in, as Well as leather from hides
heretofore dutiable, probably will be
laid upon the table.
Many senator's who would like to
have changes made in the conference
report called on Senator Aldrich to-
day with requests that he lend his in
fluence toward the acceptance of such
>changes. but uniformly he replied that
the resolution could not be opened up
to cover subjects other than the leather
schedule and the necessary changes in
the maximum and minimum pro-
vision.
+, An agreement has been entered into
between Senator Aldrich and other SEN
ate leaders with leaders in the House
by which the chairman of the finance
committee will undertake to defeat all
the proposed amendments mentioned.
Mr.. Payne said today that he did not
anticipate any difficulty In getting the
resolution through the House. Some
of the members of that body appre-
ciate that there may be trouble in hold
ing a quorum, and they predict the
postponement of the adoption of the
resolution until next December.

THOMAS CRESsEY
DIES SUDDENLY

Although He Had Been iii
for Some Time.

Thomas Cressey, the well known
architect and member of the City Hall
Commission, died suddenly at his home
$40 Summer avenue, at 2:30 a. m. today
Mr.. Cressey had been ailing for some
time. but he was well enough yester.
day to go to work. Early in the morn
ing he called to a member of his fam
lily and said he was feeling badly.
DR.. Eugene w. Murray, of 81 Wash
ihgton avenue, was summoned, but Mr.
Cressey died short time after his ar
rival. Death was due to heart failure
I AIr. Cressey was Sc years old. He
leaves a widow, Mrs Ida L. Cressey
and three children, Mrs. C. M. Shipman
OF Staten Island. Mrs. C. f. Tobin ant
Miss Elizabeth Cressey. of this city.
Death shock to Family.
Mr.. Cressey was evidently we'll an6
in good spirits when he retired last
night At 2:05 this morning, however
the fatal attack came and DIR. Eugene
Murray, who lives a short distance
from the Cressey home, was telephoned
for Mrs. Cressey and the three daugh-
ters-of the deceased We're present when
the end came at ESQ o'clock.
Last January Mr. Cressey was
stricken with a slight attack of heart
disease, but he rallied, and after linger-
ing several weeks was about as usual.
The members of his family were con-
fident that the end was far off, and
the death his morning was stock to
all.
Mr., Cressey was born in Mapleton,
England, ON August IA. 1912. He came
to this country at the age of q years
and left his parents abroad He learned
the trade of carpenter in his native
country, and later took up designing.
When he came to this country he fol-
lowed sup architecture in Philadelphia,
and later went to Paterson, this State,
and nearly a half century ago he came
to this city.
Married Newark Girl.
Mr.. Cressey married Miss Ida V. Lee,
of this city, in 1876. and moved to
Madison, but continued his office in
this city and during the week went to
and fro each day. In 1885 he moved
back to this city and purchased the
Cressey homestead, where he spent the
remainder of his life.
Mayor Doremus appointed Mr.. Cres-
sey to succeed the late Judge Andrew
Kirkpatrick, who died on June 4, 1904,
as member of the City Hall Com
mission
Club, the American Society of Archi-
tects and was at one time yice-pre si-
dent of the New Jersey chapter of the
latter organization. In politics he was
a stanch Republican, but never TOOK
an active part in the workings of his
party. He was one of the oldest m M
bers of the Indian League.
Many large residences and buildings
were designed by Mr.. Cressey. Promi-
nent among them were the building of
the Fidelity Trust Company and the
W. v. Snyder Company's store, the
present one and the one that was de-
stroyed by fire.
The final arrangements for the
funeral have not been completed. but
the services will probably be held on
Friday evening, and the interment in
the family plot at Madison on the fol-
lowing day.
