The Angelus

The incarnation of your conception of
music.
Ready to do your bidding, instantly,
exactly as you wish it done, upon the
slightest indication, instinctively expressed
through the finger tips, of just what it is
you want it to do.
The final seal of approval of the
ANGELUS was set one year ago, when
the piano of greatest age and honor in
America, the CHICKERING-which up to
that time had refused to associate itself
with any piano-playing mechanism
Joined hands with the ANGELUS as a
piano-player "worthy of the trnst' OF its
priceless heritage.
Prior to that, the ANGELUS had been
chosen as the best of all playing mechan-
isms, by the SCHUMACHER, the piano of
Presidents; the "sweet-toned EMERSON"
the LINDEMAN, and the celebrated
KNABE, four of the six Oldest and most
honored pianos in America.

ROMANCE ENDS IN COURT
Rich Pittsburgh Woman Sues TO
Divorce Brooklyn Teacher.

A romance that began on the ocean has
been smashed to bits in the Supreme Court
in the action for divorce which Mrs
Genevieve X Holmes has brought against
her husband. Or. David II. Holmes. pro-
fessor of Latin at the Eastern District
High School, in Brooklyn. Mrs. Holmes
is the daughter Of John Sloan, Of Pitts
burgh. who is reputed 70 be wealthy DR..
Holmes denied the charges made by his
wife. but Justice Gerard yesterday ordered
him to pay Mrs Holmes So week ali
roHy pending the trial
After their meeting on an ocean steamer
they corresponded two years and were
married in July. 1900 They separated IN
November of the same year. In an
affidavit DR. Holmes said that before
marrying Miss Sloan he called on her
father and told him they were fond of each
other but tnat he could not hold out any
great prospects for the daughter Of the
rich man on his g, 90 year.
Sloan said the professor had taken his
daughter too seriously. but later consented
10 the marriage. telling DR.. Holmes Miss
Sloan had property of her own. and also
that he would create trust fund for her.
which he did.
Dr. Holmes said in letter TO Miss Sloan
in 1908. Financially considered, my work
in the world, fascinating to me and useful
in general, is a failure Certainly any
standard of living for my wife below at
least that Of the woman Of my profession
would be very humiliating to me and my
wife"

TO GET OIL STOCK AT PAR
Former Standard Subsidiaries to Ofer
New Issues to Shareholders.

Pursuant TO the recent announcement OF
the large increase in capital stock ot two
of the former subsidiaries Of the STANDARD
OIL Company-the Standard OIL Company
of Indiana and the Vacuum Oil Company
it Is understood among bankers that the
stocks Of both companies will be offered TO
shareholders at par. The proposed increase
means the raising Of S39,OO0,O00 for these
two companies alone. II is not improbable
that several others Of the former sub
sidiares will announce similar action be-
fore long
Two objects are in view In making these
readiustments One is to bring the capitali-
zatiOn more in line with the assets and the
other is to provide ample liquid working
capital for the concerns. Practically all OF
the larger holders Of the shares OF the sub
sidiary companies undoubtedly will avail
themselves Of the subscription rights offered,
though some Of the smaller holders may
find II moro convenient 10 sell their rights
rather than exercise the subscription priv
iIcge. In any event. it is likely the raising
of this large amount Of new funds will have
some influence on the money market later

OPPOSE AUTO LAW CHANGE
Highways Society Against the
Transfer of Licensing Power.

Any effort to transfer the licensing OF
automobiles and Chauffeurs from the ofhce
of Secretary Of State TO the Highways De
partment will he opposed by the National
Highways Protective Society This an
nouncement was made last night by Colo
mel Edward s. Cornell. secretary Of the
society. after reading an Albany dspatch
which said that such move was being
advocated by certain members Of the New
York State Automobile Association.
This would he most unwise." said Colo
rel Cornell 1t would distribute respon-
sibility and increase the cost Of the work.
AS it is, New York spends a larger sum
in proportion for the maintenance Of its
licensing bureau than any other state. due
to the complexty Of the law. The cost IN
New York is q per cent, as compared with
ConnectiCut's per cent. We ought to
have law like that Of Connecticut. where
every person who operates motor vehicle
must qualify as 10 his or her ntness TO
operate a machine whereas in this state
any owner of a machine, provided he does
not operate the car for profit may run one
without a license be he a paralytic or an
epilepuc.
Last year there were "a people killed
in this state by motor vehicles. In the
state of Connecticut only nineteen we're
killed II is true that there are six times
as many motor cars in operation in this
state as in Connecticut. but even at that,
there is a needless slaughter in this state.
Colonel Cornell said the examination OF
chauffeurs is not conducted properly, and
that the society is in possession of am
davits showing that some men have been
qualified as having made the road test
successfully who did nothing more than
run the machine 10 the nearest saloon,
where money-usually Sl0-was handed TO
the examiner.

KEEPERS AT JAIL TOO FEW
Sheriff Hamburger Wants Five More
at Ludlow Street

The idea that most people have about
Ludlow street jail is that its prisoners
never think Of trying 10 break their way
out OF A. but II Is not only members Of the
"Alimonv Club" who are confined there.
Others are sent there from time TO time
who are accused Of serious crimes and
keepers are needed Tor them
There were eleven keepers a the Ludlow
street jail until recently. but the number
has been cut by the Board Of Estimate 20 six
since Sheriff HaTburger has been IN office.
The Sheriff now complains that the present
force is not sufficient to take care OF The
prisoners and he has written TO the Board
Of Aldermen asking that this condition be
remedied
lie says that the law permits him 10 have
eleven keepers and they are necessary. as
they work in three shifts Of eight hours
each and six keepers are wholly inadequate
10 guarantee that some day the jail will
not he "owid" as happened in the admins
traton Of Sheriff 'ramsen.

about the condition Of the child and had
