Speed in Service.
Berlin.-The craze for roller skat-
ing which has swept over Europe in
the last year, chiefly through Ameri-
can promotion, now has a curious ex-
position in a garden restaurant in the
suburbs OF Berlin.
With view to obviating the usual
difficulty OF serving meals outdoors
and at distance from the kitchen,
without most Of their heat being lost,
the device OF walters on roller skates
has been adopted. the theory being
that increased speed in service means

knows what the inspector would like to know and
often he is able to mislead him. He can move and
jump and get under cover at will and always IS on
the defensive.
1t is different with his opponent. Mr.. Inspector
knows every trick of the game but he has only
few men to play with and can move only one way
the board. But sometimes it happens that the
smuggler has not everything his own way. On the
eastern side of the Atlantic the special Treasury
agents, with the wisdom of the owl and the cum
ming of the fox who watch the smuggler night and
day before the game begins. They learn in divers
ways what plays he is likely to make and long before
the players make this side of the Atlantica
net spread which frequently enmeshes all the SNUG
gler's men and kings and abruptly ends the game.
The customs this side, however, play the
game practically alone Sometimes Treasury agents
abroad send tips which lead to big seizures; but
the hundreds of catches made annually at the port
of New York are brought about by the skill and per-
sstence of deputy surveyors and inspectors in charge
of the baggage examination.
Smuggling is ancient trade. In this country it
began when the first tariff was levied upon imported
articles and from that time until now the swindling
of Uncle Sam has gradually developed into art.
lnnumerabe schemes have been evolved by circum-
stance and necessity and passed along among dis
honest Travellers but in all these years collectors of
the Government revenues have not been tagging

New York. Sept. 2S.-Miss Vera
Fitch, the young Californian who shot
herself in the Hotel Astor on August
%, gave her reasons last night in an
unusual interview. She said she hop
ed for reincarnatiOn in a more moral
world.
The case has been surrounded by
much mystery. The young woman's
relatives first refused admit her
identity, and the only hint of her mo-
tive was CLEANED from a letter to her
mother in which she wrote:
The fourth estate has proven too
strong for me- 1t is really deplOra ble

eyed usually. but minus morals Death

1t was known that she had literary
ambitions. Lying in the hospital where
she is convalescin@, Miss Fitch said
last night:
Il dreamed of a better day when
such men could be unknown, when
the world would have one moral stand
ing for both men and women. In the
belief l might live again in that pure:

George Chavez the Aviator Who Con.
quered the Alps Died from
EHecfs Of His Fall

Domodossola, Italy, Sept. 2s-George
Chavez, the Peruvian aviator who flew
over the Alps Friday last, died yester-
day afternoon. Until yesterday it was
thought that the daring Peruvian
would recover. but symptoms of in
ternal injuries developed and general
depression was noted.
During the hours of suffering, Cha
vez displayed the same manly coura ge
that characterized his daredevil flights
in France and other countries, and
those at his bedside hoped the brave
mans fOrtitude would pull him thru
the present crisis.
News of Chavez's death will be re-
ceived with sorrow throughout the
world, and especially among aviators
for none of the man-birds has display
ed greater daring or skill than the
young Peruvian, who held the world s
record for flight. He anticipated at
tanning a height Of less than 10000
feet at the meeting at Belmont Park
in New York
