BOY OF 8 WORST IN STATE
Into FIesh-Strangled Chickens
for Amusement.

Hackensack, N. J.-Ernest Diers is
said to be the worst boy that ever
lived in New Jersey. He is only eight
years old His father is Ernest Max
Hermann Diers of Fairview. The boy
is now at the Bergen County Chill
dren's Home in this city, pending his
removal to the reform school,
This Diers boy is the worst ever
heard Of" said Justice Phillips. I'm
the first place, Ernest is a moral de-
generate, and for boy of his tender
age some of his immoral acts are
really astounding He is incorrigible
and defies his parents. He is brutal
beyond all comprehension. He slow
ly strangled two chickens, and his
face beamed with flendish delight as
he watched the chickens struggle. He
threw their bodies over a fence.
Ernest next tied a dog to a post
and after fastening the legs proceeded
to drive a nail into the dogs body.
The yells of the dog only increased
the power behind the blows, and not
until the flesh was penetrated and
blood came did the child stop his
work.
Two days ago the lad slashed his
brothers head with a scythe because
he had more apples than Ernest did.
This boy will have to be carefully
watched"
Deputy Supt W. H Bratt Of the
childrens home locked Ernest up for
the safety OF the other inmates.

FAMINE THREATENS PARIS.
Railroad Employees Strike and Ser
ious Trouble Follows.

Railroad Employees Strike and Ser
ious Trouble Follows.
Paris, Oct. l2.-The French govern
ment is again facing a serious strike.
Employees Of the Northern railroad
went on strike early today, and tonight
the strike spread to the Western rail-
road, which is owned by the state.
Indications are that tomorrow will
see a complete tie-up in Northern
and Western France.
The strike involved about 80, 900
men. The strike on the Western road
was voted this evening by 5000 men
employed in Paris and suburbs. They
count upon the national unions to tie up
the province.
The movement may possibly extend
to the Eastern and the Paris, Lyons &
Mediterranean railroads.
Paris is threatened with scarcity
of food. Transportation is partly pros
trated, and the vast army of working
people in the Northwest quarter are
unable to reach their places Of busi-
ness.
Military engineers are taking the
places Of the strikers, and the troops
are guarding various stations and i'm
portant sections Of the roads. Large
military forces were distributed when
the strike was declared and additional
troops were ordered out tonight.
The government has decided upon an
important step in an attempt to break
the strike on the Northern road. The
Official Journal publishes a decree
calling to the colors about 10000 en-
ployes of the Northern railroad. This
Immediately subjects the men to mill
tary discipline, under which they may
be ordered to operate the trains.
Officials of the Northern railroad
have issued a statement that wages
on the Northern railroad were in
creased 3,500,000 francs during the
year of l909-10, and that the increased
cost of operations and the burdens put
upon them by parliament made it i'm
possible to meet the demands of the
men.

Ju-JItsu No Use.

A cricket club formed a gymnasium
for the use of It's members during the
winter months, and an instructor was
engaged to teach ju-jitsu. Recently
one of the cricketers turned up with a
bandaged head, and said some youth
had inflicted the injury.
What" exclaimed the ju-jitsu in
structor. "You mean to say you let a
youth knock you about like that? Why
didn't you try ju-jitsu?"
"I couldn't"
''Nonsensei There's no conceivable
situation to which 1u-jitsu cannot be
successfully applied. Show me where
he gripped you"
I'm sorry to say he didn't grip me
anywhere. He dropped a brick on
my head from a third-hoor window"

ROOSEVELT TRIES FLYING.
Quickly Accepts Invitation of Aviator
for Trip.

St. Louis, Mo.-Theodore Roosevelt
made an aeroplane fight here and said
it was the finest experience he had
ever had. He travelled twice around
the aviation field at Kinloch, 18 mics
west of St. Louis, in 3:20. He waved
his hand at the crowd of thousands on
the field below, most Of whom were too
dumbfounded and frightened to move.
When the machine alighted easily, a
few feet from the starting place a
mighty shout Of applause and relief
went up.
Arch Hoxsey, a Wright aviator,
with whom Colonel Roosevelt made the
flight, said that the colonel made a
good fellow-voyageur for the trip, but,
instead of being afraid, he was having
such a good time that Hoxsey was
afraid he would fall out or interfere
with the engine, which was roaring at
his side.
The colonel waved his hands at the
crowd below SO vigorously that Hoxsey
called out to him:
keep your hands on the rail, Col
onel.' Colonel Roosevelt, who had
forgotten to hold himself in, waved his
hands once more and then obeyed or

His majesty, greatly moved, tore a

The boy did so, and the priest read

The shadchen is usually tall and

protruding neck and a short, thin
beard. He invariably wears a Prince

He is not tidy or engaging, but his

simple and exoteric: Why deal with
tickle children who know not their

business with their parentsf If only
they agree upon the match, the ever
obedient children will do their bid

The shadchen is a remnant of Jew

days children were married very
young. Because Of their youth and in
experience, the parents would ar

this country, where early marriages
are not in vogue, the Jewish young
folk follow the dictates of their af-

RAISING OF MAINE APPROVED.
Taft Gives Q. x. and Work Will Be
Completed in February.

Completed in February.
Beverly, Mass.-President Taft fin
ally approved plans for raising th'
wreck of the battleship Maine, which
call for the completion of the work OF
or before the 18th anniversary of the
destruction of the war vessel, February
Is, next.
The work is to be done according tc
plans made by army engineers and tC
be under the direction of an engineer
officer.
President Taft believes that the par
amount question is the determining fol
all time the cause of the explosion. He
has invited Spain to send a represent
ative to be present during the work Of
exposing and removing the wreck.
The disposition Of the old hulk re-
mains to be settled.
Army engineers believe that it will
of the vessel. The forward third,
where the explosion wrought the great
est havoc, is believed to be too far
gone to be taken out as a whole, and
the wreckage will be removed piece
meal.
If congress approves the recon-
mendation Of the engineers the wreck
will be taken out to sea and given a
ceremonial burial in deep water.
No portion of the wreck is to be dis
turbed until a full opportunity has
been given to view and study it.
To this end the first work will be
the construction of a cofferdam of in
terlocking steel pilings, large enough
to give clearance of so feet on all
sides of the wreck.
The pumping out of the water, when
the dam is completed, unquestionably
will be an impressive event.
The bodies of sailors who lost their
lives in the disaster and were never
recovered will be taken to the Arling-
ton National cemetery at Washington
for burial.
A naval board of inquiry, which was
convened in Havana and made such an
examination of the wreck as was pos
sible with divers and the testimony of
survivors, reported that the explosion
came from the outside, probably a
mine.
The wreck is now in 25 feet of
water. 1t has sunk but one foot in
the IL years since it went down. The
dam to be constructed about the wreck
will be AIS feet in length and 275 feet
at the widest place.

Grain Shippers Are Disseminated
Against on Part of Railroads.
Washington-A conspiracy on the
part of the railroads to deprive Middle
West grain shippers of the advantages
Of cheap water transportation and to
drive the grain transportation busi-
ness from the Great Lakes is charged
in a petition fled with the Interstate
Commerce commission by the Chicago
board of trade.
The complaint is directed against
the Pennsylvania railroad, the Balti-
more & Ohio railroad, the New York
Central and IA other railroad lines
operating east of Chicago and other
Lake Michigan and Lake Superior
points.
1t is reported that "by reason of
conspiracy on the part of the defend
ant carriers, substantially all means of
all-rail through transportation from
Chicago to New York and other Allan
tic seaboard points, and also all paral-
lei and competing through lines of
transportation via the Great Lakes
from Chicago and other lake points to
Buffalo, and from Buffalo to New
York, and other Atlantic seaboard
points, are owned and controlled by
the defendant carriers"
The commission is urged to protect
the lake traffic in grain by restoring
the lower ex-grain rates from Buffalo
to Eastern points.

CorporatIon lax LitIgaton 10 Come
Up Three Months Hence.
Washington-Because of failure to
have full bench in the Supreme court
of the United States a general re-
adjustment of important cases set
last spring for consideration this au-
tumn was made by the court.
The Standard Oil and Tobacco suits
under the Sherman antitrust law were
postponed for rehearing from Novem-
Der IA to January 8. The corporation
tax cases were also signed for argu-
ment on January 8. So were the cases
involving the question of the correct
penalty to be imposed ION violators of
the 28-hour law, regulating the ship
ment Of livestock.
1t is expected that successors to
Chief Justice Fuller and Justice Moody
will have taken their places by that
time.
The Importance of the questions in
volved also led the court to postpone
until January a number of cases set
for argument today. The boycott and
contempt appeals arising out of the
injunction proceedings in the District
of Columbia brought against the Amer
ican Federation of Labor by the Buck
Stove & Range company, of st. Louis,
were reassigned for January 16.
The Kissel case, involving the ques-
tion whether the American Sugar Re-
fining company and others conspired to
prevent the Pennsylvania Sugar Rein
ing company from doing business, was
postponed until November 10, on ac-
count Of illness Of counsel. The cases
involving the constitutionality Of the
employers liability law were re-
assigned for argument on November
28. Attempts to postpone considera-
tion of the cases involving the peonage
from Florida and the Mis-
souri, 2-cent fare law was unsuccessful.
Motions to advance large number
of cases were submitted to the court.
Among these were cases involving the
constitutionality of the Carmack
to the Hepburn rate law,
making the initial carriers responsible
for goods throughout the route, and the
cases involving the constitutionality
of the bank deposits guarantee laws of
Nebraska and Kansas.

HIGH RATES ARE NEEDED.
Railroads Say No Funds Available
for improvements.


Washington - President James Nc
Crea, of the Pennsylvania Railway
company, was a witness before the In
terstate Commerce commission on the
proposed advances in freight rates by
railroads out of Chicago.
Mr.. McCrea urged the necessity of
the proposed increases on account of
the increased expenditures in wages
incurred by roads during the last ten
years-aggregating 33 per cent in the
case of the Pennsylvania, and the in
creased cost of maintenance of service.
The witness said that the results of
the constant increases in the business
of the Pennsylvania, through a long
period of years, had been distributed
either through reduction in rates, in
creases in wages and amounts paid for
material, or by reinvestments in the
property not capitalized.
He expressed the belief that a prop
erty of the magnitude of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad rendering service sat-
isfactory to its patrons, deriving, as
it did derive in 1909, net earnings to
the amount of only Sol per cent of the
amount actually invested in the prop
erty," was entitled to fair considera-
tion by the people, and he could not
understand how rates that secured such
results could be regarded as too high.
The hearing was conducted before
the full commission, Chairman Martin
Knapp presiding.
