grandfather. The sudden and wide
publicity given the case is believed
TO have resulted in the confusion
of whatever plans Cohen may have
made.
BUST said today he strongly
doubted the genuineness of the let
ters given Mrs. Cohen. He said
the phraseology did not ring true
and he believed his granddaughter
had never written them.
1t was shown today by the post
marks that the suicide letters which
Miss De Janon sent her father were
mailed at Eighteenth and Christian
streets. this city. This indicates
that they were dropped by Cohen,
who lived at that corner. Miss De
Janon never visited that neighbor-
hood.

DEMOCRATIC
LOVE FEAST

The suggestion of a democratic
love feast" for the Third con-
gressional district, to be held in
Spokane on Lincoln's birthday, has
been offered by John Pattison of
Spokane, democratic candidate for
governor in the last campaign. The
suggestion has met with a most
favorable response and probably
will be laid before the Young
Mems Democratic club at its next
meeting.
Mr.. Pattison thinks that it would
be we'll for the democrats of east
ern Washington to get together and
commune over the banquet board
for one evening. There are condi-
tons In the state, the district and
the nation at large that will afford
ample food for an evenings discus
sion, and Mr.. Pattison thinks the
democrats from over the district
could profitably spend an evening
in enjoyment of this character.

The rear room" comes to be

place, shake their heads when you
point to 1t.
Just one thing more about the
barber college business. The state
has a board of barber examiners
and every journeyman barber Of
the state Is obliged to take an ex-
animation and carry license.
No licenses are displayed In this
barber college. 1t must be admitted
that some Of the chins and heads
which come to the place are not the
most sanitary. The chance for the
spread of disease from this source
can not be overlooked. II there Is
to be state regulation Of the skilled
barber trade, how much more urg-
ent is the need of regulation OF
some kind for barber colleges"

THIS GENTLEMAN HAD WHAT
IS CALLED A "SLNGING .AC''

he reached the police headquarters
he was as hilarious as his condi-
ton was pitiable.
A profusely bleeding nose, a
black eye which had Bill Shan
mons beat mile, and two cuts on
his face, one over and the other
under tho eye, did not add to his
attractlveness. He fairly made the
station ring with his songs Of
jubilee. When he was taken down
to the emergency hospital to have
his physiogony sewed up by Stew
ard Dare, however, his notes grew
more harsh. Later he resorted to
just talk, saying few things about

his jag had largely disappeared
when he left the hospital for the
city bastile. The arrest was made
by Officer Fordyce.

MESSAGE
/. IS DEATH
: To TRUSTS
So Declares Thomas Lawson
of Presidents Interstate
Commerce Message.
IS ALL POWERFUL
Presidents Incorporation
Tax Has But q "Nubbin'
for Monopoly Trusts.
(By United Press Leased Wire)


BOSTON, Jan 8.-Lauding Presi-
dent Taft's interstate commerce
message as sure death for the
trusts, Thomas w. Lawson came
out here today with paeon in
praise. Under the head, what the
presidents message is to stock
DOM" he said
Now that the people are
aroused to the deviltry of the sys-
TEN by which during 40 years less
than 10000 men have become pos
sessed of more than three quarters
Df all the wealth of the whole ma
ton, three things are essential to
the preservation of the systems
structures
THE ESSENTIAL THINGS
First, railroads must have the
privilege of resorting to long de-
lays in meeting any action brought
against them Tor violation of the
interstate law.
Second, railroads must have the
privilege of increasing rates with
out being stopped by the law until
to the limit of time.
Third, the courts having decided
that monopoly trusts must go and
the supreme court being on the
point of giving the final shove to
their going. the monopoly trusts
must have the antitrust laws
changed to allow good trusts to
continue their deviltries, which
means that all trusts would be
good trusts
IF the system cannot be assured
of these three conditions, their
structure must fall.
FEDERAL INCORPORATION
1.-The only thing feasibly posi-
BILE Is federal Incorporation
Nothing that could possibly be
done will so quickly incinerate mo-
nopoly trusts as this bit of political
machinery which President Taft
has invented.
Il can hardly believe that even
President Taft fully takes in the
all-powerfulness of this monopoly
trust buster, for he cannot any
more than did his great predeces.
sor know the stock game, and II
is the stock game which runs the
monopoly trust game.
Under President Taft's federal
incorporation tax what will hap
pen?
Monopoly trusts will apply for
federal incorporation charters, and
right here comes the 'nubbin' In
the presidents invention-all the
facts about the applying monopoly
trust will be known to the public
which means that this knowledge
viii be Immediately followed by q
stock crash. for when the facts
about n monopoly trust are known
the public will clearly see the
righteousness of the present in
flated prices of monopoly trlis,
stocks and bonds"

THE JOYS OF A FREE SHAVE
In THE BARBER COLLEGE

Next. Chair in the rear room!"
(Voice) doin'. I'm wise
to that game"
The above bit of conversation did
not take place in a prison with an
eIectrocution about to take place.
Not quite so serious as all that
it was in a barber college In the
lower part of the city.
Have you ever been to barber
college? No? Well, you have miss
ed something.
All barber colleges, 1t is under
stood, have a rear ROOM" the
place where the beginners work.
It is there where the cub BARRIERS
inflict themselves upon the chin
or head. Those who have been
through the tortures Of the rear
room" once, never return.
A sign on the entrance to the
stairway leading up to the institu,
ton, bearing the inscription free
shave" lures many of the leisurely
travellers of the lower part of the
city to make an investigation. Such
investigation generally leads the
lumberjack or construction work
man into at least one experience in
the rear ROOM" Many flourish
ing hirsute crop is reaped in that
Sanctum.
Then there is front room, where
the more skilled students work. For
the improved service the managers
of the school charge fee of 5 cents
for shaving and 10 cents for hair
cutting. The usual line of egg
shampoos" are also administered at
somewhat reduced price. The
front room has many regular pat
rons, mostly of the working class,
the chairs being kept well filled.
The barber college business
ought to be a paying business. The
students pay cash tuition of $50.
They are able to learn the trade in

May Is. A limited train TO Saginaw
Valley points will leave Third-st. sta.
ton, Detroit, at 4:25 p. M, and Wood.

ming daily except Sunday. II will
stop only at Lapeer and Vassar and
will arrive in Saginaw at 7:15 D. m,
and Bay City, 7:45 p. m. The run
ming time between Woodward-ave.,

ENGLISHMEN WILL TELL OF
BOY SCOUTS MOVEMENT
w. q. Wakefield and Charles Head

A., Monday

Two Englishmen who are In Amer

the benefit OF boys in the United
States will be guests OF the Y. NJ. G..
A. Stan, Monday. They are w. b.
Wakefield, honorable secretary OF the
Boys Department of England, and
Charles Head. national boys work
secretary OF England.
These men have taken an active
part in the formation of the Boy
Scouts brigades OF the old country.
This is an idea which has spread to
Canada, and many men In this coun-
try who are interested In the move
ment for helping boys favor introduce
ing II here. Whether IL will be In
augurated in Detroit depends largely
upon the conferences TO be held here.
Detroit is one OF the few cities to be
visited.
The boy scouts plan is primarily
one intended to provide for the future
defense of Great Britain. There are
already more than 100000 boys en-
rolled in these brigades and the num-
Der is constantly increasing. While
the aim is TO train boys for future
service as militie, the movement also
improves the condition OF the boys
presently. Appealing to the military
instincts OF the boy. he is taught to
observe closely. The arts Of wood
craft are taught by veteran soldiers
and the boys enjoy the work.
Camps and marches are held, the
boys sleeping in the open at times
like real soldiers. They learn TO
read hoofmarks and 10 trail other
parties. They are taught TO observe
every significant detail. The virtues
sought TO be instilled by the train
ing are chivalry, discipline, self-sacri-
fee. kindness and obedience. Lieut.
Gen. Baden.Powell was the guiding
spirit of the movement in it's in
auguration.

FIVE SUITS SETTLED.
O'Flaherty o'keefe Metzen Litiga-
ton Is Settled Out Of Court.


Lawsuits which promised to lead
TO almost endless litigation were set
tied out of court Saturday morning.
and five cases in which the damages
sought aggregated $4,000 were with
drawn.
Several weeks ago James O'Flah-
erty, who owns considerable property
in Highland Park. became involved In
a dispute with Daniel O'Keefe and
Edward J. Metzep real estate dealers
over a land contract calling for the
payment of $4,000. Charges were
hurled back and forth, and O'Keefe
and Metzen started suits against
'O'Flaherty for SANDER and damages 70
business. O'Flaherty also started suit
to rescind the contract, and tied up
the business of O'Keefe & Metzen
with injunctions. Mrs. O'Flaherty. q
sister OF O'Keefe. took sides against
her husband, and started suit for sep
aTate maintenance.
Under the terms OF settlement the
land contract Is turned over to Mrs
|OFlaherty on payment to her husband
of $4,000 She also withdraws her suit
suit for absolute divorce, O'Flaherty
agreeing not to file cross-bill. The
suit started by O'Keefe & Metzen were
also discontinued.
