IRELAND TO M'INTYRE Praises American Method ists, But Condemns Some of Their Roman Repre-
 sentatives
Especial from United Press3

tSpec1al rom On1leQ HT0SS.J
 St. Paul. April 6.-Archbishop John Ireland. of St. Paul. today replied scathing1y to the challenge to debate hurled at him by Bishop Robert Mc- Intyre of the Southern Minnesota Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, yesterday. Bishop McIntyre's challenge was made public at Saratoga Springs. N. Y.. and in it the Method ist preIate, besides challenging Ire land to debate the question of Meth odism in Rome. added:
 ttI hereby brand John Ireland a dou- bIe-tongue falsifier of Gods people. 8 cowardly accuser of men better than himself.'i
 Archbishop Ireland replied as fol lows:
 The message received from Bishop Mcintyre is beneath my notice. He need not trouble himself about a de- bate with me on his arrival in St. Paul. I stand upright straight before run away from rnud-sIingers.
 s.Methodists in America are usually very excellent people. but cannot pay the same compliment to some Of their representatives in the foreign mission ary field. Of these. Rev. ripple. now in Rome. is fair example.
 Bishop Mcintyre ought to go to Rome. Judging from his present mes sage he is an expert in the line of Roman Methodist preachers. It is Just such low, insulting words address ed to Catholics in Rome and those ad- dressed to me by Bishop Mcintyre that arraign decent people in Rome against the MethoCist propaganda.

UNEXPECTED TEST OF EFFICIENCY OF
 FIRE ALARM DRILL

Members of the faculty of Sum merfe1d school are delighted with the showing made the other day by the school children in an unexpected test of the efficiency of the fire drill of the pupils.
 Extensive repairs are under way, on the school structure, including an addition. Carpenters found it neces- sary to move the electric wires. In their work accidentally they rang in the signal for fire drill connected with all rooms.
 In a second the children were on their feet, and filed in regular order from the building through the two big exits. The children didn't know whether a. fire existed nor did the teachers. G Neither pupils nor teach CTS lost their self possession however and in a very brief space of time the entire structure was emptied. Then search for the fire was begun but it was soon learned what had occasion ed the ringing of the alarm.
 Parents of the pupils who have since heard the story are more than pleased at the splendid showing of the school

TELLING BLOW DELIVERED AT
 LOAN SHARKS
Judge Wilder in City Court Fines Frank Glasner
 $l5O and Costs
Prosecutor Redden's Severe Arraignment Cour t Characterised Transaction As Attempt to Evade the Law.

Frank Glasner, proprietor of the In dependent Loan and Security Co.,, Beers Building, Broad street, was fined $50 on each ot fhree counts growing out of a loan made to him fast fall to John Sirko, a Fairfield farmer in the city court today.
 Judge Wilder unsparingly arraigned Glasner, terrning the whole transac- tion as an attempt to evade the law, and going into the details of the trans action as disclosed in the evidence he characterized the transfer of a mortgage upon Sirko's property from Jacob Glasner, brother of the accused, to Frank Glasner, as a farce.
 As a result of the decision that the transaction was illegitimate sfrko looks forward hopefully to evading payment of the balance of the loan he received from the Independent Loan & Security Go. Giving notes for $500 secured by a warranty deed, for which a mortgage was later substituted, he received $170 of a $200 loan. He had paid $32.5O interest at the rate of $2.5O per week when he came to a, realiza- ton that he was being ttdone,'' and quit paying interest and sought the aid of the authorities
 G1asner appealed from the decision of the city court, in bail of $500. He was represented by Attorneys John c. Chamberlain and Charles H. and Jos. G. Shapiro. The interests of the state cutting Attorney William A. Redden.
 The legality of the substitution of the mortgage for the warranty deed was brought into question. Judge Will der held that it was illegal and going still deeper into the case, declared that the appearance of Jacob G1asner in the case gave it the appearance of an attempt to evade the law. Ja- cob however was not arrested. The GIasner attorneys offered in excuse for their client that he had been guided in his actions by legal advice.
 Upwards of an hour was taken up in the city court today with arguments between counsel. Prosecut@D Redden unsparingly flayed GIssner and his ilk for preying upon men such as Sir1xo whose hopes to build little homes he said vanished in the maw of the hungry loan sharks.

New Haven, April 6.-After weeks of consideration of the wage ques- ton and several conferences with a committee of it's employees, the Com necticut Company today issued a bulletin which esta blishes a new wage scale and modifies and unifies the working conditions on it's various divisions.
 The new scale follows the old scale in beginning at the minimum rate and working up to the maximum at the end of five years, there being no change in the time required to ob- tain the maximum rate. Instead of three scales there are now but two, Middletown and Torrington being pro- noted from the second to the first division.
 The working conditions establish ed by the new bulletin, with a few minor changes, have been heretofore in effect on the New Haven Division and represent but little change there. The application of the same rules to the other divisions it is believed, will result in improvement of benefit alike to the employees, to the public and to the company.
 The new scale effective April g. and which will be the prevailing rates of pay for naotormen and conductors. fol- lows:

MAUD ALLEN
COLLAPSES
ON STAGE

(By United Press Leased Wire.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, Feb. 8. =
Maud Allen is recovering today
from series of distressing ex-
periences on the Auditorium stage
that ended in her partial collapse,
and made it necessary for her to
be carried to her dressing room.
Miss Allen announced that sna
would perform several of her
dances without music and permit
her audience to guess what they
were. Twice she essayed a dance
between the regular numbers of
the program, but each time the
orchestra responded to the aud
fences demand for an encore and
upset her plan.
Three times during the evening
she complained to the leader
about the tempo. Finally the
nervous strain became too great,
and as she finished her "Blue
Danube Waltz" she tainted.

GALVESTON, Tex, Feb. o.
Baby has achieved a great tri-
umph. Uncle Sam is not going to
let his hired men tax baby's dolly
the way they want to. No. in
deed. Uncle Sam has too many
little girlies to stand for anything
like that.
Why, one of his customs in
spectors said that dolly's hair was
not hair at all, that it was wool,
and it ought to pay the higher
duty demanded of wool. He
wanted to make dolly's little
mamma pay 22% cents more for
her dollar dolly than she really
ought to, just because he said ii
had a tiny ounce of wool upon it,
little head-the very idea! III ~
But, no, Uncle Sam wouldn1t
let the bold, bad man impose
upon the little girlies that way,
so he had his general appraiser.

of little girlies who like dollies,

woolly head only has to pay 35
cents to get into the United
States, and not 81 y cents, TIE

CHURCHESAS
TENEMENTS

(By United Press Leased Wire
ROME, Feb. 9.-Peitro Chiera,
a socialist member of the Italian
chamber of deputies, announced
today that he has secured the en-
dorsement of 23. other deputies
of his party to help plan for
transforming one-half of the
churches owned by the state into
tenements for the use of the poor
at moderate rentals.
The dearth OF living accommo-
dations for the poorer classes in
Rome has long caused perplexity
among the national legislators,
and Chiera's plan, which he al
ready has presented to the speaker
of the chamber, is the first prac-
tical step taken to relieve the
stress.
His plan calls for the transfer
nation of one-half of all state
owned religious institutions in
Rome, in addition to church edi-
fices, into model tenements. He
believes that this plan will serve
to make less exorbitant the rent
ais charged by other landlords
through the competition with the
state that they will have to meet.
