TWO WAYS WITH LEGISLATORS

TWO WAYS VlIH LEGfSLifOhS'
DISPATCHES from Ohio say that the
Legislature of that state is now likely
70 pass all of the fifteen measures which
Governor Harmon recently demanded of
the Democratic caucus. The graft
revelations and indictments have thrown
the Governors opponents into panic.
Thus a new way is revealed Of making
a legislature progressive" and "respon-
sivc TO popular opinion" and Of 'releas-
ing II from It's scrvitude TO the interests
There is Governor Wilson's way,
which consists of bringing to bear upon
the Legislature the force Of public opln-
ion. If Governor has the gift Of clear
and attractive statement like the New
Jersey Executive, and the tact not 10
bore the public by excessive scoldinS or
hysterical eXaggeratiOn. that method is
sine1larly effective. And there IS the
Ohio Way-althOugh Harmon is its chief
beneficiary he appears to have had
nothing to do with it-of employing n
force of detectives and exposing the leg
iSlatorS I'm their iniquity. Doubtless that
system will be employed hereafter in
other states One or the other or both
methods will he sure to serve, and there
will be no excuse for a Governor Of the
future who does not succeed in getting
his programme enacted. Governor VIII
son magnanimouSly describes his plan

ing them up works also and equally

AGAIN THE FACTORY FIRE PERIL


The panic in the Broadway loft build
Ing serves rs Il sharp reminder of the
lessons Of the Washington Place disaster.
The only thing needed In the Broadway
accident to make 1t repetition In
is horror OF the shirtwaist factory
slaughter was a sufficient fire. The con-
dtions were similar. with the inward
opening doors blocking escape for time,
the stairway inadequate for the crowd
of employees and the equipment of the
factory making egress difficult. TIE
breaking banister in the one case CORE
sponded to the breaking fire escape In
the other. Had there been In the Broad
way building any such fire as there was
In the Washington Place building few or
those girls who fell In heap from the
stairway would have got out alive.
One plain lesson OF each disaster Is
that no more persons should be allowed
to work in any place of employment
than can be got out Of 1t quickly and IN
safety. Where stairways are narrow
aud inflammable and existing fire es-
capes are such that egress by them IL
difficult and slow the state should allow
few persons to be employed. There IS
danger In mere numbers where ample
means Of quick exit do not exist, as the
collapse of the fire escape on one build
ing and of the banistcr i'm the other
plainly proves. And there is no way IN
which Improvement Of the means or es-
cape could be more promptly brought
about than by proportioning the number
OF persons that might occupy building
to its facilities for exit in an emergency.

HOW SHE MET MAETERLINCK.

Tn the November Bazaar, Madame GeOrgette Leblanc Maeterlinck, the great French actress and wife of the anthor of 'aT'he Blue Bird,'' tells how nhe decided to marry Maeterlinck long before she met him. The unique lit- tie story is told in her own words:
 sNever had I felt so happy as the 6rDt months after my engagement at The Opera COmique. I had an ex- tensive repertoire, a good salary. and The press was kind to me. I had never met artists before I imagined they were all noble. people with great and generous souls.
 Such disillusions! learned more in those few months than in all my pre- Vious life! My friends seemed to Think my only raison detre was to fprovide for them. All this made me smfserable, and then one day I came across one of Maeterlinck's works
 That gave me some consolation read more Gradually became sub- consciously convinced that the man who wrote those books was the man ought to marry. I met an acquain- lance who knew Maeterlinck.

 He. thought it was good joke.

Have you ever seen him.? he asked
 No. I know nothing about him. But he is the man I ama going to marry
 You have come too late, poor child he exclaimed, .Maeterlinck is an old man.
 The earth seemed to crumble be- meath me. But I managed to answer that I wanted to meet Maeterlinck in any case. A few nights later at a party a handsome young man came up to me and was introduced as Mae terlinck

 That was how we met. You know the rest. ."-Harper's Bazar

STILL BELIEVES WIFE HELD.
But Police say Mrs. HuInphfres Has
Deserted Husband.

Kansas City. July 12.-In spite of
statements of the police that Mrs.
Edith Humphfres, who disappeared
July 1, had been seen since that time
on the streets of Kansas City, J. z.
Humphfres, the Hutchinson real estate
dealer, left the city firm in the belief
that his wife had been drowned or is
being held against her VIII.
Humphfres had been urging on the
police in their search for his wife
since Saturday.
A telegram was received by Humph-
fres just before he left from persons
in Hutchinson. Although the message
said that the drowning story had been
planned before Mrs Humphfres left
Hutchinson and that she is not dead,
the husband refused to believe that his
wife had wilfully abandoned him.
The husband and c. A Reed, the
woman's father, left for Boomer. Con-
fident that Mrs. Hum phfres has desert
ed her husband and not dead or held
an unwilling prisoner, the police have
temporarily abandoned the search for
her.
