II was not deemed wise by the Com
missioner to send these tender lodgings
into the waste places OF the Greater
city. There Is less danger OF their los

II would be fairer to the older men to
give them chance to patrol In their

home precincts as It was possible to de-
tall them.

from mansion on Riverside Drive

side Is quite a long distance. and takes
more than little courage. Yet this is
what Mrs. Theodore Roberts, vice.
president of the National California
Club. well known to club women and
the magazine world all over the coun-
try as a writer under the name OF
clyde Harold" has done. Ana not
only has she left her luxurious sur
roundings but she has dismissed all her
servants. and is now forced to do her
cooking and housekeeping with her
own hands.
The "Baret Mission" at No. 90
Chrystle street, where Mrs. Roberts has
taken up her abode, Is situated In one
OF the poorest sections of the city The
house Is surrounded on all sides by
squalor. while dirty-faced children arc
continually streaming in and out the
doors.
Criminal Row" as Chrystie street Is
called. is Inhabited solely by foreigners.
and, according to reports, is the hotoed
Of most of the crime that Is committed
in New York.
POVERTY THE ONLY CRIME SHE
FINDS THERE.
1.-THE only crime / find here Is the
crime OF poverty" said Mrs. Roberts,
when seen to-day by World re-
porter She was attired in a dainty
blue silk gown. and seemed in strange
contrast to her sordid surroundings.
You will pardon me IL ! talk too
much. even though appear to be busy"
(she was in the midst OF eating a light
luncheon), but 7 simply never tire OF
talking about my children.
"You see. all my life / have wanted
to do this kind OF work. and now
am getting plenty OF opportunity" As
Mrs. Roberts said this her face lighted
up with a smile. and she called two
tiny children scarcely able to say one
word OF English over TO her knee, and
kissed the forehead Of each. Every
step she takes she is surrounded by
gYoups OF little children eager TO clasp
her hand or catch hold OF her skirt.
II believe that the only way We can
do real good In to come and live right
here in the midst OF things. and by
my teachings and example elevate the
people to high standard of living. I
have sole charge OF the little girls. We
are called The White Hand of St.
Martha because we know that 1t was
st. Martha who devoted herself to
household tasks. while st. Mary went
out to attend to the serious affairs OF
the day. The white Hand Is the
symbol by which each child Is known.
When they enter here you viii notice
that the girls raise both their hands and
say White Hand to prove they are
clean. That Is one way We have Of
teaching them to be neat.

IS A FAvoRITE SON.

Since the announcement made by
John A. Laughlin, deputy county trea. :
urer, that he was candidate for County
treasur, that gentleman has grown in
public favor AS deputy treasurer, he
has served the people efficiently, and
we are strong in the belief that if elect

with the same capability, the same de-
votion to the public's interest that has
characterized his work as subordinate,

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER
MAYOR OF sTURGIS SHOT

Sturgis. April 21.-Because of a
fancied grievance, Richard -Stahl, a
farmer living near Piedmont, late
Saturday afternoon shot and killed
Mayor Elmer Laid of Sturgis. He
surrendered and a little later cut his
throat from ear to ear and died in a
few minutes.
Ladd was talking with an attorney
in the latter's office when the infuri-
ated farmer entered and fired four
shots from big calibre gun. Ladd
was struck in the head by the second
shot. Ladd was the cashier of the
defunct Meade county bank at Stur-
gis. The bank trouble is not be-
lieved to have had any connection
with the shooting.

inexperienced man. And, the Free
Press is inclined to the belief that
Hughes county republicans will do the
right thing and nominate Mr., Laughlin
for county treasurer at the June pri-
maries, and that Hughes county voters
will recognize his worth and experience
by electing him to the place he now
seeks next November.
John A. Laughlin came to this coun-
ty in 1882, when "a mere lad, and has
since been a continuous resident of the
county. He was educated in the public
schools of our county, and in 1905 grad
uated from the State Agricultural col.

ces are his strongest supporters in the

DEAD RECKONING.
One Way of Determining a Vessels
Course On an Ocean Voyage.

One Way of Determining a Vessels
Course on an Ocean Voyage.
Dead reckoning simply means the
computation OF a ships longitude and
latitude from her movements as re-
corded in the log and without having
recourse to astronomical observations.
The chief elements from which the
reckoning is made are these:
The point Of departure-that is, the
latitude and longitude sailed from or
last determined-the course or direc-
ton sailed in as ascertained by the
compass, the rate OF sailing, measured
from time to time by the log, and the
time elapsed.
The various principles or methods
followed in arriving at the reckoning
are known among navigators as plain
sailing" and middle latitude sailing
However, the data thus obtained are
always liable to considerable errors by
reason Of currents, leeway, fluctuations
OF the wind and changes in the decn-
nation of the compass. The results
arrived at by dead reckoning. there
fore, must Of necessity be corrected as
often as possible by observation OF the
heavenly bodies. No navigator would
risk relying wholly on this method o.
determining his position on an ocean
voyage.-NeW York Times.
