WIVES ARE BLAMED FOR
HIGH COST OF LIVING.

RICHMOND, Va, Dec. 13.-Among
the newest of the theories advanced to
account for the high cost of living is
that which has been expounded by
Miss Marion Fairfax, of this city, who
asserts the responsibility lies with
wives who show lack of interest in
their husbands home and affairs.
1.-The modern omar in her desire to
show how worldly wise she is, does not
fully realize the harm she is doing"
said Miss Fairfax. she has lost in
terest in her home and in what home
means, and the man of the house has
peen forced into eXtravagances of many
kinds to tempt her to pay more atten-
ton to her home. And at the same
time she has expressed her views on
modern living so freely before young
girls that the latter have caught the
spirst from her. 1t must be stopped
and a saner view of life taken If the
next generation is to mark an ad-
vance"

IRREGULAR MOVES
FEATURE MARKET
Whole List Takes Drop Near
II O'clock After Rise in
Some Shares.

NEW YORK. Dec. 13.-The level OF
prices was barely disturbed at the
opening of the stock Exchange today
Trading was light, with a majority OF
tho active issues showing a slightly
easier tendency.
II a. m.-The market moved in ir-
regular fashion in the first hour. Spec
ulation became heavy after the open
Ing, with st. Paul losing a point. u.
$. Steel was then bid up to s4A and
Northern Pacific rose a point, which
caused some temporary 1rmness in
other quarters. Near IL o'clock the
whole list went down again.
Noon-U. $. Steel showed good re-
slstance to selling and ruled slightly
above yesterdays closing despite the
weakness at other points. The buying
OF this stock was stimulated by fur
tfer reports OF improved trade condi-
tons. A break of ~ to 33A, a new
lew record in Great Northern ore GER
t~sGcates, attracted some attention be-
cause of the persistent reiteration of
rfmors that the dividend would be
passed.
! p. implying orders were distrib-
uted around the low range of prices,
and the market advanced gradually
until it made up virtually all of the
forenoon loss.

MAY SUCCUMb To
ELECTRIC SHOCK
Man Who Accused Fellow En-
ployee in Serious Con-
ditiOn.

With two specialists, an attending
physician n a nurse in regular at
tendance, Alfred Van Ripper, the Har-
rison young man who last June was
shocked while at work In the plant of
the General Electric Company. Harri-
son, is lying at his home, 1909 Patter-
som street, Harrison, in a precarious
condition. Not even his bride of five
months Is allowed to see him. Van
Ripper suffered a relapse a few days
ago and It was feared yesterday he
would die. A slight improvement was
shown today, but his condition Is still
serious.
AT times 1t taxes the combined
efforts of half a dozen strong men to
hold Van Ripper in bed. His right side
is paralyzed and he Is unable to utter
a sound. A strange feature of his case
Is the fact that every time he hears
the doorbell ring he attempts to jump
from the bed. Today the bell was dis
further annoyance.
He was employed at the electric
works in Harrison. One night he went
to a water-cooler for a drink, and
when he grasped the tin cup he fell
backwards and was picked up neon
scious. He was taken to a hospital
and remained there for a few days.
Charged with assault and battery,
James F%innegan, a Newarker and a
co-worker of Van Riper's, was subse-
quently arrested. Van Ripper accused
hin with connecting the wires that
charged the drinking cup and a metal
plate that lay on the floor IN front
of the cooler. Finnegan was held for
the Hudson county grand jury. Van
Ripper explained that he and Finnegan
had quarreled a short time before the
mishap, and hat Finnegan vowed to
get him" Finnegan was acquitted.
