New Headgear Fashioned After
Those Provided for the Force

Members Of the police force are re-
ceiving their winter caps, which will

There was no reply. Without wasting
another moment, the police ran to a

Thirty deputized citizens and police
responded to the signal.
There he is, trying to get into the

gave the alarm.
Thirty shots rang out simultaneous

WHEN YOUR WIFE FAlNTS
New Method Of Resuscitation More

When my wife faints. which Is

alternately check and accelerate the
passage of the blood-but taking hold
of one of her hands with my left hand
place the thumb and finger OF my
right hand tight around her wrist and
pass them firmly up toward her elbow
Having brought them back loosely
to the wrist pass them firmly up
again, and when have repeated the
operation two or three times, some
times on both arms. have the pleas

better now" When first had recourse
to this means of resuscitating my lady
she exclaimed instinctively on two
different occasions. without being at
all aware that had had any particu-
lar intention, "Oh, that is what seem
to want"
From the invariable and immediate
effect of this mode of friction ! fiatter
myself that 1t is not unworthy the no.

And that was the kind of toast in

that nothing more could be added to

NOTED EDITOR DEAD
Pulitzer One of Americas Fore
most Publishers.
Although Stricken Blind Over Twenty
Years Ago He Since Editorially
Directed His Two Gig Daily
Newspapers.

Charleston. s. C.-Joseph Pulitzer,
editor and proprietor OF the New YORK
World and the St Louis Post Dis
patch, died recently Oh board his
yacht. Liberty. in the harbor here. He
had been Ill only about 4S hours and
until just before he died it was be-
lieved that the illness was only a
slight indisposition. His passing re-
moved one of the greatest newspa-
pers publishers of the age.
Late one afternoon 20 years ago,
Joseph Pulitzer, then but forty-two
years old, was leaning on the rail OF
a yacht as the boat was standing out
of the Bosphorus and into the Black
sea, looking toward the setting sun
through eyes which for years had
been strained. when he was stricken
blind.
And for the last 20 years almost up
to the moment of his death-he has
been in constant touch with the morn
ing and evening editions of his New
York World and his Post Dispatch OF
st. Louis, personally during his short
and Infrequent visits to Manhattan
and by telegraph or cable while
cruising here and abroad on his
yacht
OF late years he has spent most of
his days aboard his palatial yacht.

his orders 1t was an ordinary oc-
currence for him to wake up his staff
aboard the yacht at two or three
o'clock in the morning to aid him in
some work he had suddenly thought
of.
Mr.. Pulitzer was sixty-four years
old. Besides three sons. Mr.. Pulitzer

leaves two daughters, Miss Edith
Pulitzer and Miss Constance Pulitzer.
Mr.. Pulitzer's entry into New York
journalism occurred in 1883, when he
bought the World, tnen a paper of
small circulation.
Prior to his debut as a newspaper
man in 1870 Mr.. Pulitzer had. for
Eve years, worked in various capaci-
ties Going to St. Louis at the close
of the Civil war. after having been
mustered out of the First New York
cavalry after years service, he OBJ
tanned his first employment as
deckhand on ferryboat
Afterward he did manual work on
the levee, then became a hostler in
the Benton barracks. and later be-
came waiter in cafe.
Following this he had place as
coachman, and through part OF the
cholera epidemic in the latter sixties
he was grave digger.

would, that his letter and the accom-
