aALLADE OF BLUE CHINA.

There's a joy without canker or
cark,
There's a pleasure eternally new,
IT'S to gloat on the glaze and the
mark
OF china that's ancient and blue:
Unchipped, all the centuries
through
It has passed, since the chime of it
rang,
And they fashioned it, figure and
hue.
In the reign of the Emperor Hwang.
These dragons (their tails, you re-
mark,
Into punches of gillyflowers
crew.
When Noah came out Of the ark,
Did these lie in wait for his crew?
They snorted, they snapped and
they slew;
They were mighty of fin and of fang
And their portraits celestials
drew
In the reign of Emperor Hwang.
Here's a pot with cot in the park,
In park where the peach bios
SONS blew,
Where the lovers eloped in the dark
Lived, died and were changed in
to two
Bright birds that eternally flew
Through the boughs of the may, as
they sang;
IT'S a tale was undoubtedly true
In the reign of the Emperor Hwang.
ENVOY.
Come, snarl at my ecstasies, do,
Kind critic; your tongue has tang,
But-a sage never needed a shrew
In the reign of the Emperor Hwang.

NOVEMBER BOLT
 TELLS TWO MEN
Spectacular Sea Breaks Over Wal at Seaside Park Dis
 lodging Masonry

Samuel Beards1ey. a well known Adams Express employe, and Eugene Carten. both residents of Beechmont avenue, near the terminal of the North Main street trolley line, were shocked by a bolt of lightning during the se- were electrical storm Of yesterday af- ternoon.
 Beardsley had just made fast the front door of his home, which a. gust of wind had blown open. when he was flung Mr. Carten to the floor of his basement, extinguishing a candle he had lighted as he entered the eel lar. The men were not badly hurt, but Carten was unable to speak for several minutes The surf did considerable damage at Seaside Park at high tide, washing over the seawan and into the bouIe- yard. At the>N west end of the sea wall, near the bath house, about 15 or 20 feet of the wall itself was dis lodged from it's setting and moved two feet back. The water did sort of a freak trick in handling this job in asIaIch as the large piece of seawa1l was removed in one chunk. The wa ter managed to zeat it's way through some crevtces and by so doing it dis lodged some of the cement and then forced the big piece of seawan back. The storm was more furious before the rain and when the ocean was at high tide. Many people were in the park at the time to watch the action of the waters. and they reported that seldom has such a raging sea been known to Bridgeport

The vic tim of his own efforts bled to death before the eyes of his family and friends who were unable to render that the man died within five min utes of the occurrence and before medical aid could be summoned.
 Dominic. who was 2S years old, married and the father of a child but one and one-haf years old, lived at 53 Sumner street. He was invited yesterday to the house of his friend, Joseph Krusewski, 72 Allen street where a christening was in progress. The festivities were at their height, when Dominic was asked by one of the guests to remove the cork from bottled Of imported ginger ale. The metal cap was removed and the cork refused to come out by the pressure behind it. The bottle was shaken bottle between his knees the victim took table fork and using the handle as a ram-rod attempted to force the cork into the bottle

CHARGED WITH USING MALLS
 TO DEFRAUD
Julian Hawthorne, Ex-Mayor Quincy, Dr. Morton and Pro- mOter Freeman on Trial in Federal Court
All Accused by Government of being Mixed up in Mining Companies That Fleeced the Public

New York, Nov. 25.-Julian flaw thorne, noted author and newspaper correspondent and son of Nathaniel Hawthorne, Josiah Quincy, twice mayor of Boston, andzAssistant Secre- tary of State under President Roose- welt, and Dr. William J. Morton, a nerve specialist and Albert Freeman, promoter went on trial before Judge Hough in the criminal branch of the federal court, today. All are charged with using the mails to de- fraud the government on the ground that they and J. J. McKinnon, soll mining stocks in companies that had no existence and that the investing public lost more than three million dollars.
 McIkinnon will be tried separately, later.
 District Attorney Wise prosecuted while the defendants were represent Thomas Proctor, of Boston, Joseph Choate, Jr., and, Frederick We1lrnan, of this city.
 Not in many years had four as well known men been placed on trial in this city on a criminal charge and the courtroom was crowded when the selection of the jury. was begun. On behalf of Josiah Quincy. it wis said that the defense would be that he had absolutely no connection with the companies but was the personal at torney of Freeman and Hawthorne. He had nothing to do with floating the stock, it will be alleged, and did not participate in the profit. flaw thorne. the government alleged. wrote wonderfully descriptive pros pectuses and because of his standing in society and the great popularity of his father in New England. the work of selling the stock and bonds of the napanies with which his name was connected was very easy.
 There were fully dozen firm panics which the government claims were Fraudulent, although it was ad- nnjtted their stock and bonds were wonderful trlumpfis of the papermak ks CTS and engrayers' art. Chief of these was the Hawthorne Silver & Iron Min ing Company, the Continental Snydi- cate and the Julian Hawthorne Com pany.
 According to the opening address of the prosecution the company con- ducted an amazing campaign of stock tnd bond selling by mail.
 Catalogues were collected showing graduates of the various schools. col leges and universities while the t4Rlue Book" of many cities also yielded names to whom letters could be sent. Because of this method, the gov ernment claims, the stock selling campaign was wonderfully successful and the returns very large.

Indianapolis. Nov. 25-The complete destruction of Los Angeles and explo- aions on non-union johs and the Pan anna Canal were projected by J. ]. Me Namara, according to Ortie E. Mo Manigal, the informer, who wae unex- pected1y recalled to the witness stand Tn the dynamite conspiracy trial.
 "Burn the city off the map. Make it a landmark like San Francisco fol lowing the earthquake. J. J. McNa- mara told him, said MManigal. J. J told him also of scheme to send three or four good men" to Los Ange- les to set fire to the city at different points and to dynamite the water eys- tenn at the same time.
 McManigal told of J. J. planning tc destroy the Panama Canal work done by the McClintick-N Marshall Construc- tion Co. McNamara's scheme was for Ortie to go to Panama, declared the dynamite and blow up the canal and to enlist an associate if necessary.
 That McNamara told him of a plan to sweep down on the motor speed way here the day of a big race. with a gang of strong arms, steal the gate re- ceipts and use the money for future dynamite schemes was testimony giv- en by McManigal.
 The informer detailed his trip with J B. McNamara from Toledo to Detorit to do foi< jobs in the latter place. The pair arrived in Detroit, April F, 1911 registering under aliases at the Oxford Hotel. As they were leaving the hotel that day, they were seized by several men claiming to be federal officers and they. charged the prisoners with cracking safe in Chicago.
 McManiga1 recounted the story of his being taken with McNamara from De troit to Chicago and later to Los Angeles, accusing B. of talking too much and offering huge sums for his release.
 The defense was surprised by Dis trict Attorney Miller,s action in turn ing over the witness and Senator Kern asked to have the questioning pcstpon- ed Upon Miller's objection, Judge An derson ordered the defense to proceed. Kern showed that McManiga1 had plea ded guilty to grand larceny in

 fomatic Stops
Both Devices Recommended by C. c. EIwelI, Engineer of
 the Commission
CorOner's Recommendations Growing Out of WestpOrt Wreck Almost Entire
 ly Ignored

The Public Utilities Commission filed an order, Saturday, relative to future operation of trains on the New Haven road, the same following it's investigation into the wreck of the Boston Express at Westport, Oct. 3, when seven persons were killed and many injured.
 The New Haven road is ordered to remove the facing switch beyond the Eaugatuck bridge, where the accident occurred. The road Is also ordered to bring high speed trains to a full stop at the entrance to crossovers not adapted to high speed use.
 The order of the commission is ac- eompanfed by the report of c. C. FL well chief engineer and inspector for the commission.
 MT. Elwell recommends the removal of the switch at Saugatuck. the in statlation of long crossovers. and the points where it is not practical to in stan long crossovers. He also rec ommends that trains shall be brought to a stop where these conditions are not fulfilled.
 The commission discusses the long crossover. but does not order them. The commission does not discuss the automatic train stops and does not order them.
 Coroner John J. Phelan, in consid- erIne the causes of this wreck, recOn-
 
 long crossovers, automatic. stops, sim pier fire extinguisflers, and a full stop For all trains before entering made quate switches.
 Most of the recommendations of the coroner have been ignored by the commission
 The commission admits that the in- Etsliation2-of. .-leng4 cE9seoyers 1asz5fec-s commended by the Interstate Commerce Commission after the wreck of the Federal Express would have prevented the Westport wreck, and in this con- nec<ions says that it, the Public Uti1- ftae. Commission, did not exist at that time.
 But the Railroad Commission did exist at that time, and the members Of the Railroad Commission were the game who are members Of the Public Utilities Commission and the papers and policies of the Railroad Commis- sion were transferred by law to the Public Utilities Commission
