Merits Of Civil
 Service Pension
 To Be Discussed
Public invited to Meeting Ar ranged Under Auspices of Local Members of
 U. s. C. s. R. A.

For the purpose of bringing home forcibly to the minds of Bridgeport CTS the merits of the arguments for the retirement of superannuated or disabled civil service employees, the United States Civil Service Retire ment Associations Bridgeport branch, which has a prosperous; membership, has arranged to hold a public meet ing at the Lyric theatre on Sunday afternoon
 At this meeting there will be num- Der of eloquent and able speakers, mo- tably M. F. ODonoghue, national sec retary of the organization. Mir. O'Donoghue, is one of the most elo- quent speakers in behalf of the move ment for civil service retirement He was scheduled to take part in a great mass meeting in Philadelphia next Sunday, but when word came of the illness of A. W. Mckee. the national president, who was expected here, he at once changed his plans,r that he might visit Bridgeport in Mr. McKee's stead
 MT. ODonoghue will discuss the re- tirement of civil service employees from the standpoint of the employe, while other equally interesting phases of the great problem will be brought to the fore by other speakers. These in clude F. J. Mulcahy who will speak of the Crane Co.'S vast pension system and who will enlighten Bridgeporters on the plans of the large enterprise he represents. Rev. B. J. Craft, whose versatility and whose grasp of almost every subject of current interest make him invariably a speaker far out of the ordinary; Frank M. Buckley, su- perintendent of Schools in Ansonia who will treat the subject from still another standpoint and Mayor Wilson who will open the meeting and preside as chairman.
 By way of diversity, the committee arranging for the meeting has secured a number of talented artists includ- ing Mrs. Sara Simpson, Joseph Clab- by and others to contribute musical numbers. The meeting will be open to the public and all will be welcom- ed by committee representing Bridgeport branch of the national as-

WOMEN IN ECCHARISTIC

Rome, May 1.-The next of the fsmoss Eucharistic congresses of the CAthSsic Church. which is to be held pf Vienna. Sec5em ber 12 to Is, is k-xc -arnous by the participation for the first time in such an event of women
 This is made all the more remark able by the fact that it is in direct opposition to Pope Plus fight for years against ''feminism." Pope Plus has ever regarded the present day tendency of women to take an active part in public and official life as a serious menace to religion and his campaign against ''feminism" has been almost as vigorous and unre- lenting as have been his attacks on modernism.
 Nevertheless, 1t is now not only of ficjally announced that the women of the ariStOcracy are to play promi- nent part in the coming Eucharistic congress but even the women of the ''borghese" class as well. Incidental

 It is announced that the commit tee of women will be presided over by the Archduchess Maria Annulziata and that this committee will be divided into six sections each of which will also be presided over by an Archduchess. The Archduchess Maria Cuiseppa will head the finance committee; the Archduchess Blanca will look after the finding of lodg- ings for the delegates; the Arch duchess Maria Teresa will head the press agent committee; Archduchess Zita will have a committee in charge of decorations while the Archduchess Maria Valeria and the Duchess Hoh- enberg will also be at the head of other committees.

UNION MUST NOW|
 PAY HIM S3,5OO
Expelled Member Wins Damage Suit-Official Held For
 Perjury

New York. May 1-An unexpected incident in the suit of Lambert schou- ten of Yonkers, against the United Steam Filters, and Steam Filters Helpers for damages sustained through expulsion from the union, be- fore Justice Kelly in Part I, of the Supreme Court, Brooklyn, yesterday, was the arrest of Laurence Putnam, of 301 West 18th Street, Manhattan just before the close of the case and the awarding to Schouten of $3,5OO damages.
 - Schouten was a. member Of the un- ion. He was at work on a building at 127th street and Broadway, when. out. This action, it was declared, was the result of the failure of master plumber to collect s36OO he said the builders owed him. Schouten testified that he stopped work at the order of the union, though he did not know what it was all about or that the job had been declared an unfair one. The local, however, contended that he had not stopped work and without a hearing, he charged, fined him $I00: He refused to pay, and was expelled from the organization.
 Since tKat time. he contended, he had been bounded by the union and had been unable to obtain work. Once he recited, he got job as plumber and lost it. Then he obtained work as a steamfitter, but was forced out. while another time he got employ ment as foreman, and it was the same story.
 Putnam testified he had offered a resloution which the board had adopt ed declaring the job an unfair one. He was confronted with a statement he is alleged to have made to Dis- trict Attorney Jerome which was a contradiction to his statements on the stand. Justice Kelly at once ordered Putnam to stand aside in the custody of a court attache. Assistant District Attornev Fresham was sent for, and Justice Kelly directed that Putnam be held on a charge of perjury He was held in 1,5O0 ball.
 This practically brought the case to an end, and $3,500 damages was awarded to Schouten. His reinstate- ment in the union was not asked for.

ONE of the large dailies recently
devoted nearly half a page of it's
valuable space to an argument on
criminology. in an effort to prove
that all criminals are not normal,
physically. Scientist claim it to be
fact that the majority of criminals
are different from the general run
of human beings, but this difference
cannot be determined by outward
appearances, for it has its seat in the
brain; and as has been shown, time af-
ter time, visible differences or de-
formaties have nothing whatever
to do with the making of a criminal.

Many have no correspondence ex-
cept upon business matters, an d
others neither write or receive let
ters during the whole term of their
imprisonment.
What is becoming of all our boon
companions-the fellows we favored
in our days of prosperity, those who
were wont to declare eternal graft
tude to us? Where are those per-
sons who, when we were free and
prosperous asked us to call on them
should we ever be in trouble and
need a friend? Once in a while
one of them nobly responds to our
appeal for help, but more are dumb
as the dead to our appeals for even
friendly letter.
Few of us can, with reason, COM
plain of such cold treatment, for it
is in accord with our treatment of
others. We are no better or worse
than our chosen companions; they
are treating us as we would likely
have treated them were our posi-
tons reversed.
But now comes the question of
who of those we considered our
friends in the past, have continued
faithful in our trouble and imprison-
ment? Not our old associates in
crime nor those upon whom we have
spent our well or ill gotten money;
not those whose favor we strove to
win; but mothers, sisters, brothers,
wives and honest friends who adj
vised us against our evil ways and
whom we ignored and neglected.
1t is these who have stood nearest
to us in our troubles, visited us in
prison and written cheering, hope
ful letters.

Pat has usually very clear idea
of the meaning of an abb, altho he
may not be able to express himself
in very lucid terms. During a re-
cent trial the Judge interposed in the
course of the examination, and asked
the witness if he knew the meaning
of an alibi: Yes. to be sure 1 do,
yer honour promptly answered
the witness. Tell me then,' said the
Judge, what you understand by it?
Sure, said Pat, it is just like this;
it's to be after proving that We wasn't

crime that, sure ye never committed

ness in a mans system. Battistelli
the Italian criminologist, is cited and
his statement that large percentage
OF criminals have black. glossy hair.
is made much of. Is it not a fact.
however, that Battistelli's researches
were carried on among nation of
black haired people? Would not
his conclusions have been radically
altered had he extended his re-
searches to include the Scandinavia
ans, for instance?
Judging criminals by the size and
shape of their heads is equally as
unreliable. Suppose one were to go
out among the honest people, the
normal people. if you willard Sc
lect, at random, say a dozen, who
are known to be men of honor and
integrity. Shave their heads, and
then stand back and observe the re-
suit. AS sure as sunrise you will
find among that dozen heads at least
one or two over which Lombrosi
himself, would have gloated.
There are no two human beings
in the world exactly alike; no one
without his or her blemish; we are
none of us perfect. How then can
normal physical standard be set, and
where can a line of distinction be
drawn?
The whole theory that certain visi-
BILE physical deformities denote Grim
inal tendencies, is wrong. If it were
not one might expect to find pair
tallons on some of our capitalists.
Criminal tendencies, like the taste
for liquor, or the desire for wealth
are acquired, and nearly always,
early in life, and are the result of
home training, and not the shape of
the head or the color of the hair.

AN AUSTRALIAN BARNARD
A PORTRAIT
w. C.. Van D.

She dwelt in little d-fashioned
hotel. on one of the back streets of
that prettiest of Melbourne's sububs.
South Yarra. OF old Welsh stock,
she had that weird, mystic loneliness
that none but Celtic women of the
purest breed possess; a loneliness so
soul-impelling that the mere beauty
of other women pales into utter in
significance beside even it's memory.
Her hair, of a rich dark copper
tint glowed with the lustre of a
thousand gems, and it's massive coils
sat round her head like the coronet
Of an empress.
Her eyes were like twin purple vi
Diets and in their depths shone chas-
tity and love; not the cold chastity
of sexless maid, nor the love that
is held in leash by fear; but the love
of life that, by it's very intensity, SO
dazzles and yet repels defi]ement.
And how the expression of her
eyes would change; at times she
seemed modern maid, bubbling
over with the JOY of life and careless
of aught else except the pleasures
Of today. At other times a stern
shadow would creep over her and
one thought of Boadicea or of the Gel
tic Norns of old Bretagne, dread
ed, and yet SO madly worshipped.
At times it seemed as if the soul of
some woman of that older race, for
whom men laid down their lives
and deemed it holy privilege, looked
out from her eyes as from a window.
Dim memories of a long forgotten
past flashed over the mind and one
felt as if in the presence of Norma
of old, offering up her dreadful sac
rifce at the blood stained altar in a
Druid's grove.
Strange, how at the beginning of
old age a man recalls so clearly the
romance of his youth. Thoughts and
memories that had long since passed
from his recollection come crowding
back, and the impressions made by
them are as vivid as those made yes
terday. Memories Of the past begin
to take reality that is entirely alb
sent from the present, and the love,
that was lost or thrown away, surg
-es back with all it's pristine force to
claim it's own.
