Special agents of the Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Children
have just completed a survey Of all
the moving picture show houses and
similar amusement places in New
York city AS result of their find
ing, the society will ask that the Ii
censes of forty-five of these places be
withdrawn and will recommend a
sweeping reconstruction of the city
ordinances governing picture shows.
1--WE do not question the claim that
the moving-picture playhouse may be
an educational institute" says Albert
Fl. Hockey, one of the society's man
ayers, "but we are more interested in
the responsibility of the attaches en-
ployed in certain of these places. We
have before us nearly hundred in
stances in which employees of the play
houses resorted to questionable meth
DDS in their treatment Of young girls.
The continued use of the darkened
room to present the pictures Is objec-
tionable. 1t is found possible to throw
pictures on glass screens, in well light
ed halls, with better success than in
the dark rooms"
Believing for nearly forty-five years
that each was dead, Mrs. John Mad
den, of Saginaw, Mich, and Mrs. Siden-
sticker, of Newayo, are about to be
united through the appearance of
mortuary notice of John Madden, who
died in Saginaw some time ago. The
announcement of his death was car
ried around the state, and Mrs. Siden-
sticker read the notice in her home
and Immediately wrote to Saginaw to
ascertain if the Mrs. John Madden was
not her sister The surprise and Joy
of Mrs. Madden in eventually locating
Mrs Sidensticker can be imagined.
1t was in early childhood that the
two girls separated and lost all trace
of each other, each finally giving up
hope of ever seeing the other alive.
The supply ship Celtic arrived from
Cuba with big draft of men whose

to bring the men to this city. When
the tug started back to Norfolk, de-
spite the fnct that the channel Is wide
and deep, it went about 1000 feet off
its course and hit hard on the beach.
Finally the vessel ffoated, but emily
after a night of terror during which
distress whistles were blown and
rockets and revolyers fired continu-
ously. The men declared the tug on
several occasions nearly capsized.

EIGHTEEN DEAD IN Mine
Austrians and Firms K lied in
Minnesota Avalanche.

Eighteen are dead in a mine in Viz
ginia, Mimi, on account of the ava
lanche from the bank into the mine.
Most of these men are Austrians and
Firms
Only six bodies were removed dur
ing the day, and owing to the immense
quantity of ore covering the dead, it
may be several days before all are
found.
President w J. Olcott, of the min
ing company, says that the earth gave
way from the bottom of the bank and
that the disaster could not have been
foreseen.
Many of the dead miners left large
families. The wailing of The wives,
children and relatives of tie mer un-
der the thousands of tons of ore in
the open pit is heart rending.
Two of those entombed in the E.ba
underground mine at Gilbert, Mimi,
were dead when the rescuers reached
them. Capt. Joseph Dinny was res
cued. He was pinioned under falling
timbers and had his shoulder blade
broken.
