NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-The trial OF
Lau Tang and Lau Shang, charged
with the murder of Bow Kim, Plum

Blossoms" callers, testified that on

rooms at II o'clock after a visit OF
ten minutes and went home. AT z

counsel for the deefnse.
II went back to bed" answered the

Two other witnesses testified that
thew saw the defendants enter Bow
Kum's room on the night of the muir
der: that they heard groans soon at
ter and that when the defendants

The Joint telegram to Chairman Knapp

dent of the Switchmen's union OF
North America, and from F. =. Melch-
err. chairman of the general managers
committee of railways requesting med-
iation, was received today. Differences
to be considered are similar to those
that resulted in the strike or the
switchmen in the northwest
Mr.. Perham was keenly disappointed
by his failure to bring about settle
ment. He had a conference in the at
ternoon with Chairman Knapp but II
resulted in nothing. Subsequently the
statement of the medlatorS annOunc-
ing the abandonment of present EFFORTS
TO bring together strikers and railroad
officials was given to the pubic. MI.
Perham expressed aStOnlSnment at the
statement and at once sought another
interview with Chairman Knapp. The
latter confirmed the statement to Mr.
Perham but assured him that, If the
mediators could be of service at any
time in the future. they would be glad
to act
Mr.. Perllam said afterward that,
while the mediatOrs apparently had
abandoned their efforts to bring about
an adjustment. he proposed to stick to
it.

the house committe on agriculture his
official estimates for the coming

well-b bred manner or accept, if his
services are necessary.
In either case, a polite acknowl-
edgment is in order. Never forget TO
thank a stranger for any kindness
proffered.
There is a temptation to overstep
that indefinable line and to treat a
chance acquaintance as if he were a
friend. 1t is better to err on the side
of reserve than on that of familiarity.
Many of my readers have asked me
about recognizing a person whom I'M
intentionally has allowed them to
meet. 1t is not necessary to give any
cognizance of the past meeting Your
obligations were met when you thanked
the person.
Remember that you do not know the
mere acquaintance, and be cautious
Never act in way which will cause
regret or shame in the calm considera-
ton of the next day.
Consider the chance acquaintance as
a closed incident, and continue III
your accustomed well-bred way af"
the the fOrtuitous meeting.

EVEN ING
CHAT

That wealthy people should have the
peculiar privilege of procuring their
divorce DEGREES behind a screen of bank
notes and gold dollars is obviously
unjust.
Public opinion seems to have been
aroused by the sealed verdict in the
Astor case and think some action to-
wards equalizing the divorce privileges
Of the rich and poor will be taken
sooner or later.
But the question is-which way shall
the equalization be brought about?
of secrecy or will it be taken away
from the rich?
A friend of mine asked me to write
Chit Chat saying that it would be a
good thing if all divorce proceedings
could be carried on the way the AS
tors were.
Il can't" said. 'for I don't think so"
I believe in publicity. I believe that
the fear of publicity is one of the most
wholesome representatives. of crime-al-
most as efficacious as the fear of legal
punishment.
I believe if there were no such pub
licity as there now is about the getting
of divorces that many people who, fear
ing to have their marital difficulties
shown up, now manage to compromise
them would then "agree to disagree"
Publicity is like caustic.
The caustic pains the part to which
it is applied but is apt to be healthy
for the whole body.
Publicity is painful for the individual
to which it is applied but is apt to be
healthy for the body polite.
People talk a great deal about the
terrible way in which the newspapers
exploit scandals.
1T isn't possible to be safe from these
yellow journals" they say.
