MONEY IS AT BOTTOM OF.
 MOST MARTIAL TROUBLE

Chicago, Nov. T-Money-or the lack of it-is at the bottom of most marital troubles, according to Miss Carolyn Grimsby, social secretary of the Court of Domestic Relations where nearly all Chicago's family rows get airings. Tt is the present industrial system that is really lat the bottom of family troubles" said Miss Grimsby today, "The husband works for a small wage. When he comes home tired at night he hasn't the home he wants, because his wife hasn't the money to make 1t attractive. She is irritable from struggling to make both ends meet, He is tired put from hard work. Whose fault Is 1t if they don't get along? Drunkenness causes more trouble than an- other one thing, l believe, but it Is not Bo- much that a husband comes home drunk, on Saturday night, as 1t is that he comes home without his pay enyel- ope. His wife faces the problem of feeding his children all week with out his weekly earnings. No won der she demands his arrest for non support. Our biggest rush comes on Monday mornings, and most of the cases are the results of Saturday night 'jags'.'

YOUNG PORTER CHARLTON
 Is < REFORMED MAN

Como, Italy, Nov. 7-Porter Charl- ton-sou of Judge Charlton, Yale cIassmade and intimate friend of former President Underwriting trial here for the murder hiOs wife formerly Mary Scott Castle, in 1910, is a reformed man. This is the firm conviction of the prison authorities who have him in charge.
 Under this reformed aspect, youn Charlton is proving a profound mys- tery to his jaUors and the judicial authorities generally. Short in stature, with light hair, blue eyes and pale face, he gives no outward evidence of the unusual physical strength which made him a prize winning athlete in his high school days at Omaha, Neb, and the col lege years which followed. The pris' on keepers, half pityingly, half fond Iy, have nicknamed him "the little boy and are absolutely convinced that. unaided, he could not have placed the body of his wife in the trunk, carried it the 400 yards from the house in which he murder ed her. and dumped it into Lake Como where 1t was found later They are therefore looking for an accom- plice.
 Another thing that puzzles the Italian jailers is Charlton's abstem- iousness. In the two weeks pre- ceding the mGrder of Mrs. Charl- ton both she aud young Porter are known to have drunk almost every moment of the day and night. They took only champagne, whiskey, rum and the stronger drinks of the nor thern countries, the use of which in Italy is almost unknown. Since his return to the Como jail, Charlton takes nothing but water, refusing even the local wines (which are so much an absolute necessity to the

ESKIMO DOG FARMS.
Woman Breeds and Trains Animals
for Arctic Exploration.

At Grove Park, one of the suburbs
of London, Mrs. Scott conducts
very interesting dog farm, where
she breeds and trains for the mar
ket, says The Scientific American.
The market is not very large, but i:
is sufficient to make the best posi-
Bile Eskimo dogs which are trained
for Arctic exploration.
If you decide to make journey
to one of the poles, you know that
Eskimo dogs are absolutely essen
tial. You can get good Eskimo dogs
in Greenland or in Alaska. But the
good dogs in Greenland may not
be exported except by special per-
mission of the Danish government,
and the dogs in Alaska are not so
good. One trouble with ordinary
Eskimo dogs is that they have no
breeding and no discipline.
They will obey the master with
whom they have been brought up.
but when they start after fish or
other game their master can contro!
them only by the exercise of brute
force. For the purpose of your ex-
ploration you need dogs that will
obey orders given by a white man,
dogs that are broken to the harness
and are not afraid of work, dogs that
have learned teamwork.
It is this kind of dog that Mrs.
Scott raises for the market. Her
kennels have only pure-blooded ami
mails of carefully selected stock, and
from earliest puppyhood she trains
them in how to eat and how to work.
When she gets through with an Es-
kimo dog the animal is not nearly
so ferocious as one that just grow
ed up in the surroundings of an
Eskimo village.
They adapt themselves quickly to
new masters, and they have acquired
good eating manners, so that they
are not likely to attack the cupboard
or fresh game. Mrs. Scott feeds her
animals no meat except pemmican
and dried fish brought from Norway;
a large part of the diet is a specially
prepared biscuit. She has supplied
trained dogs for number of Arctic
and Antarctic expeditions.

Wind Hits Jordanville.

Conway, March ia terrific
tornado swept Jordanville, some II
miles northwest of here, Saturday
afternoon, killed one man, injured
half a dozen people, some seriously,
and caused considerable property
loss. John Tompkins, a we'll known
planter, was the only person who
lost his life, so far as has been re-.
ported. Jordanville is not on the
railroad and has no telephone COM
munication, and hence the details OF
the storms visit are but meagre.
1t is known, however, that eight
or ten houses in the Jordanville COM
munity were razed by the wind, while
considerable damage was done to
other property.
The tornado struck the town late
Saturday afternoon. Apparently the
storm moved in a northWesterly di-
rection. Its path was about half 4
mile wide, and, according to reports
received here, it travelled about a
mile and a half before it's fury was
moderated.
The storm was accompanied by a
very heavy fall of rain, which ex-
tended to other portions of the coun-
ty beside the region swept by the
tornado.

OBEYS ORDER IMPLICITLY.
German Servant Shows He's Not Be-
hind the Chinese.

There seems to be some character
istics which Germans and Chinese
hold in common. Many are familiar
with the story of the Chinese servant
who threw the broom down the back
stairs every morning at 10 o'clock be-
cause his mistress had done so when
she first instructed him in his duties.
Recently, a young German in Mu-
mich, fresh from his service in the
army, where he had been taught to
obey orders implicitly, got employ
ment with baker who owned dog,
for which neither he nor his wife had
any great love. AS the time approach
ed for the renewal of the dog license,
amounting to nine marks ($2.25)
there were some discussions in the
family as to whether it would not be
better to have the dog killed. The
baker, however, instructed the new
assistant to take nine marks to the
excise office and bring back the dog
license. At the same time, the wife,
not knowing what her husband had
done, told the young man to take the
dog to the animals home and have
him killed; she gave him mark (25
cents) for the fee and II cents for
himself, because he appeared to be
rather fond of the dog.
The valiant ex-soldier reported
himself later in the day minus the
nine marks and the dog, but proudly
showed that he had executed both
commissions faithfully by producing
the license for the dog and a receipt
for the money he had paid for having
him killed.

Illinois Troops Stop Lynching.

Salem, ILL.,, March 14.-State troops
were sent to Salem tonight by Gov
ernor Dunno to aid in quelling. a
mob that surrounded the Jail and
threatened to lynch Frank Sullens,
white, who is held on a charge of at
tacking Dorothy Holt, IA years old,
daughter of Judge Charles Holt. The
angry citizens became so insistent in
their demands for possession of the
prisoner that Sheriff Purcell tele-
graphec for militia and Adjutant
General Dickinson and company of
soldiers were sent on special train
When news came that the troops
were on the way, the mob dispersed
but soon gathered again.
After the sheriff and his deputies
had made repeated efforts to drive
away the crowd, many went home
but more than 200 men, who declar-
ed they would hang the prisoner, fill
ed the streets with angry shouts, sur
rounding the Jail several times, only
to be driven back by the sherif's
force.
To aid in preserving order, all the
preachers and aldermen, in addition
to several business men, seized all
the whiskey and beer they could find
and poured it into the cutters.
The victim of the attack was on
her way home from moving picture
show last night when man seized
her by the throat, gagged her with
handkerchief and took her mile
and a half out of the town to a
slaughter house. The girl lost con-
.sciousness and remained in the
slaughter pen until today. She finally
home. She is in a serious condition.
Sullens was arrested this after
noon. 1t is said he admitted that
he dragged the girl to the slaughter
pen, but did so for another man who
promised him S5 and drink of whls-
ky. The girl said she saw no one
but Sullens.
