THE BEAUTIFUL MAKEUP
OF WOMEN MAKES CRIME

Nathan Swartz was insane and de-
generate, as no sane man would have
committed the crime he did; but then
again there are great many degener-
ate men around and all women should
be CAREFUL
BOSTON, July 20-Warden Ben
jamin Bridges, of Charleston prison,
said. In my opinion there was more
truth than cowardly excuse in the rea-
son N2than Swartz, murderer of Julia
Connors. gave for his terrible act The
average normal man cannot conceive
what dire results can be laid directly
to the door of certain styles of tight
fitting dresses. Many of the poor fel
lows serving time for omewhat sim
liar crimes are of the Swartz type. OF
course they have been started wrong
Their stunted, degenerate minds were
melted to crime by the charm-dis
playing costumes worn on the streets
by women.
MANY of them who have given me
their full confidence have frankly
told me such was the case and have
seen enough in the prison workshops
and the cells to believe it. The
state OF mind of some of these poor
fellows is such that we have to ex.
clude even prominent women social
workers from the shops and from cell
corridors. What the effect of a per
fleet act of close-fitting, form-display'
ing costumes is on these men after
they go free can be vert to imagina.

The stuttering child.

For many years the school authori-
ties of certain European countries
have conducted special schools for the
benefit of Sufferers. These are of sew
eral types, some conducted during the
summer, others utilizing an after
school hour, and still others taking
complete charge of the pupil until he
is cured. All these are wonderfully
successful. AS a rule recovery is COM
plete within four or five months and
only rarely does a case prove entirely
intractable. When relapse occurs as
sometimes happens, the child is given
a second course of treatment, or even
a third if necessary.
The cure for suffering is as much
psychical as physiological. 1t is of the
utmost importance that the patients
self-confidence be aroused. He must
forget that it is longer possible
for him to stutter. Appropriate speech
exercises, proceeding very slowly from
adapted to suit the needs of the indi-
vidua1 case, gradully overcome
timfdity and dissipate the language OBJ
sessions. Correct habits of respiration
have to be instilled, for the sufferer,
as a rule, has never learned how to
speech is faulty in every particular.
His whole nervous system is likely to-
be at fault. He may 'stutter'' in his
emotions his thinking, and his will
ing. The treatment must have for its
purpose a thorough re- education of
the individuals nervous system. the
general upbuilding of his physical
health and the Improvement of his
mental condition. 1t is, therefore.
much more a matter for hygiene and
education than for medicine.-Lewis
NJ. Terman, in Harper's Weekly.

The artillery inflicted terrible pun
ishment on the insurgent columns.
Some of the shells severed the fleeing
rebel troops trains killing scores at a
time.
More than 500 dead and wounded
rebels were found on the battle field
behind Rellano as the federal advance
guard under Generals Rabago and
Telles pressed northward in pursuit
of the retreating inSurrectoS.
In all, General OrOzco is estimated
to have lost nearly 5000 of his force
of 5000 rebels. Two thousand are re-
ported to have fled in disorder and the
dead and wounded ultimately will
amount, it is believed 10 a thousand.
Orozc,'s cannon were practically
useless. The shells were of poor
manufacture and the range of the
guns short, most IF the shells .explod-
ing 800 .rards short of the federal lines.
I'VE mean to press the campaign
Vigorously said General Huerta to-
day. ''T-he victory has, once more
shown the power. of the government.
Our men are full of confidence
The federal cavalry was today with
in two miles of Corralitos, the rebel
front, and ~Huerta has ordered his
horsemen to hurry north to check the
insurrectos engaged in destroying
bridges.
The federal columns are in much
better condition - resume the cam
paign than the defeated rebels, as the
losses to the government were small
This was because the artillery of the
federals kept the rebel infantry back
so far that their fire was ineffective.

Every bridge between Rellano and

them.
One and one half million rounds of
ammunition were used by the federal

Tessie Alderman, who started the

cording to Alderman. No announce
ment was made of the fact, however,
and his release did not become pubic

Manager Gear has given out no in
formation in regard to the release OF
the big fellow and Alderman isn't dis
cussing the matter.
My trouble with Mr.. Gear was
purely a personal matter" he sald:
There is nothing about it that could
be printed. 1 will rot say anything
about it,
Alderman says he has no definite
plans for the future. He would like TO
play baseball on the coast he says
and may take a trip west.

line up with, or if 1 can land in any
of them he said. Il was out OF the
game last year and that makes dill
ference"
Meanwhile Alderman is staying IN
Topeka. His release is surprise TO
his hundreds of friends here.
