ALL RANGED IN CIRCLE.

In the last days of the Tweed ring,
when the people of New York were
asking who stole the public mon
ey?" Thomas Nash hit off the situa-
ton exactly in a memorable cartoon
showing a band of boodlers ranged
in a circle, each man pointing the
man beside him and saying "Twas
him." Today the people of the
United States are asking "Who is re-
sponsible for the high cost of living?"
and the answer is even less satisfac-
tory than that of Tweeds boodlers.

WHAT SORT OF WORK Is THsY

A contagious epidemic has devel-
oped of sufficiently serious aspect to
warrant the closing of the city schools
for a short period. Contagior Is
spread by germs. Germs lodge in the
filth of the street. in the dust OF
school rooms and other places OF n
similar character. Health Officer DR..
Nywenning has even asked that the
skating rink be closed because of the
dust and the possibility OF disease
being disseminated in this manner.
Yet out on the city streets where the
filth Of the winter has accumulated
and where the sputum of pedestrians
has been allowed to gather for
months and dry. men under the en-
ploy of the street department are
sweeping and stirring up this con.
glomeration Of dust and disease bear
ing offal right in the middle of the
day when the streets are crowded.
What in the name of the Most High
is the health department thinking
about? Why is this street sweeping
not done at night and only after the
streets are sprinkled?

GET OE[MAS
FOR DEFENSE
Powerful Influence With $4,000
Retainer Behind the Aberdeen
Prisoner - Darrow, Second
Choice; Union Leaders Active.

ABERDEEN. Feb. Sacked by a
retaining fee of $4,000, leaders of the
sailors union are believed to be be-
hind an effort to obtain the services of
Dolphin M. Delmas of Clarence OAR
row to defend William Gohl, charged
with the murder of Charles Hadberg
and suspected of many others.
Announcement today that the de-
fender of Harry Thaw in his first trial
for the murder of Stanford White or
the advocate who led the defense of
Meyer and Haywood for the alleged
murder of Gov. Steunenberg, had been
telegraphed in Gohl's behalf, revealed
for the first time the powerful eff
fort that will be made to save the
agent of the sailors union from the
gallows.
On many sides the big retainer was
taken as an Indication that certain
leaders of the sailors union are fear
full that vigorous prosecution of the
many alleged murders will disclose
somber secrets that might reflect on
them, through various dealings with
Gohl. Delmas is believed to be their
first choice as counsel and is now con-
sidering the offer. Darrow will be
telegraphed If Delmas replies from
San Francisco that he refuses to serve.
All this activity in Gohl's behalf is
stirred by his former friends in the
union. His wife, who today admits
she is a cousin of the notorious James
boys, is working steadfastly to en-
courage employment of the greatest
criminal lawyers of the country. She
said today that Attorney Wilson Butt
ner had not voluntarily withdrawn
from the case. She announced that
she had discharged him, intending to
seek other legal advice. Buttner was
reported as saying his withdrawal
was caused by the development of
testimony showing that Gohl had put

SHOT THAT KILLS
MAKES A MYSTERY
Detective Meets Death at Portland
and Question as to Murder,
Suicide or Accident Raised.

PORTLAND, Feb. IA. T. Barnes.
operative of a detective agency in this
city, is dead as result of revolver
shot. Charles Mapes, a fellow en-
ploye, is detained without bail by the
police on order of the district attor-
ney, pending an inquest by the coro-
ner into the circumstances surround
ing the shooting which occurred late
today in a room used as a lounging
place by an employees agency, where
Mapes and Barnes had been playing
cards.
The weapon which was the cause of
death is an old fashioned single &C.
ton revolver of large calibre. Ac-
cording to the story told by Mapes to
the police, Barnes was twirling the
revolver by the trigger guard when
a suddenly discharged bullet struck
Barnes just below the nose and ran
upwards into the brain.
Police Are Baffled.
Police detectives say they cannot
see how 1t was possible for a single
action revolver to become discharged

tive agency. stated to the police that
Barnes and his wife did not agree,
and expressed the opinion that he

Mrs Barnes, when questioned by
the police, declared she and her hus-

were married four years ago at Los
Angeles and their married life had
been happy. She believes her hus-
band met death by accident. Detec-
tives Carpenter and Price of the po-
lice department say they are con-
yinced the case is murder or suicid1

CHICAGO, Feb. 8.-Whiskers and
mustaches have been put under the
ban by the girl students In the Uni
versity of Chicago, and the BARRIERS
of that city are keeping their shops
open and full blast day and night,
converting bewhiskered and mustach-
ed men into clean-shaven ones. Or
ders have been issued that no man
who wears .whiskers OF mustache
shall be permitted to enter the recep-
ton room in Beecher hall, which is
the girl students dormitory. The de-
cree also provides that no coed shall
become engaged to or married to any
man who.swears ,whiskers. or a mus
tache, and that il, after ten days no.
tice, all such men who are now en-
gagged to girl students fail to have
their faces shaved cream, existing en-
gagements must be broken.
One man with a hair lip, another
with a twisted jaw and still another
with a receding chin have defied the
girl students rather than shave and
expose their deformities of feature
Their fiancees asked the student body
to make exceptions in these cases, but
the request was denied and the en-
gagements are off. The three girls
also have been reminded that if they
are caught in clandestine correspond
ence or in company with the broken
hearted suitors they will be taken be-
fore trial board and may suffer the
penalty of having their hair cropped
close.

But surely there must be another

was suggested.
There is" she replied. "They are
unsanitary Nobody knows how many
germs are carried about in mustaches
and whiskers. Why, there's Mamie
johnson. She had the worst case of
fever blisters last week that ever was
seen. And just look at Madeline SEN
cora. Both her lips are cracked down
the middle, and she screams from
pain everytime she laughs. It's aw-
fully hard on her too, because she's
such a dreadful giggler. Those are
only two samples Henrietta Hamp-
ton got loose mustach hair up her
nostrils and almost sneezed herself to
death before it could be removed.
We consulted the bacteriologist about
it. He said such things undoubtedly
were due to germs which had found
lodgment in the whiskers and mus
taches of the men students.
ut is simply awful that when a
man kisses a girl she has no assur-
ance she is not getting a fever blister,
cracked lips or gumboil germ with it.
The situation was intolerable, and we
simply have taken steps to end it.. OF
course, we may miss the tickling SEN
sation at first, but with us the whis-
kerless kiss has come, and it has
come to stay. 1t wouldn't be safe to
marry any man who thinks more OF
his whiskers than he does of us.
Some one has said that the BARRIERS
union put us up to this, but that Is
not true. We simply are fighting for
the sanitary and meteorological prin-
ciple that no man ought to expect his
girl to consent to become culture
