Lone BANDIT ROBS A TRAIN
BOARDS AT STATIONS AND LINES
UP ALL IN SIGHT.
Passenger who Resists Dangerously
Wounded-About $1,000 is
Taken.

Kansas City, Mo-, May "a lone
robber who boarded the Kansas City
Southern passenger train, No. 5, at the
station here lined up and robbed the
passengers soon after the train left
here securing SLIGO in money and
jewelry. To rob the millionaire, Jesse
M. Short, was the real object it later
developed.
When Short was commanded to
throw up his hands he drew a pistol
and began firing at the robbers. One
of the men returned the fire and
Short soon fell, badly wounded. The
robber also was hit by bullet and
he and his companion, fearing the
resistance by the passengers was to
become general, jumped from the
train and ran.
Physicians attending Short at a
local hospital say he will recover un-
less unforeseen complications arise.

TWO "WHITE SLAVE" ARRESTS
Milwaukee Police Believe Exposure
of Criminal Gang Will Be
Made.

Milwaukee, Wis, May 3.-Govern.
ment secret service men and Milwau-
kee police arrested two girls, Rosa
Cucuzza and Angela Gusselli, as the
first step toward undermining an ex-
tensive white slavery and criminal
gang which is thought to be working
in the Third ward.
1t is alleged that the two girls were
brought here from Paterson, N. j.,
after being imported from Italy by a
gang of white slavers.
Chief Jansen, of the Milwaukee po-
lice department, said that he thought
he had gotten at the bottom of the
seven murders which have taken place
in the Third ward during the last
year and that he expected develop.
ments would uncover the greatest
gang of desperate criminals working
in the country at the present time.

APPLAUSE GREETS PRESIDENT
Wilson Battles to Wrest New Jersey
Politics From Control
of Old Machine.

Newark, N. j., May 3.-President
Wilson battled hard in two speeches
ut Newark and Elizabeth to wrest
New Jersey politics from what he
termed a resumption of control by
Jim Nugent and the old political ma
chine"
Great crowds, frequent Interruptions
of applause, and demonstrations of
approval, greeted the president when
he put on his war paint" as he de-
scribed it, and campaigned in earnest
to have the power of drawing juries
taken from the sheriffs and placed in
the hands of non-partisan commits
sions He also pleaded for the call
ing of a constitutional convention and
pointed out that 1t was no longer re-
garded as a radical procedure to
change constitutions in the United
States.
His two speeches were filled with
satirical characteriZations of what he
called the 'old gang in New jersey"
but he made it clear that his fight, for
apparently local issue, was made for
the people of the nation.

Exquisite Agony.

1T was, to say the least of 1t" a
London letter remarks, lust little
bit awkward that the electric light
went out the other evening at the
town house of a presumably wealthy
widow who had been doing a good
deal of political entertaining. The
guests, to the number of dozen, had
just finished their soup when the un-
fortunate incident occurred. The
scramble to find a sufficient number
of candles so that the dinner might
proceed was attended with great
deal of difficulty and no little amuse-
ment. The butler, who is described
as being bit new to his job, was i'm
mediately told to telephone to the
electric company, report the catastro-
phe and demand attention to the mat
ter. 1t was a trying moment for the
guests when he returned to the din
ing room and announced in real
Cockney accent please, my lady. the
gentleman what's on the telephone
says they sent several warning letters
unless the account was paid active
steps would have to be taken"

WILSON CHAMPIONS REFORM
SPECIAL INTERESTS FIGHTING
TARIFF BILL, SAYS PRESIDENT.
Continues His Fight for Jury Reform
and Constitutional E--
Revision.

Jersey City, n. j., May pr esi-
dent Wilson interpreted the fight in
New Jersey for jury reform and con-
stitutional revision as a part of the
struggle of the American people to
obtain, through the Democratic party,
ejual Justice to all and special privi-
lege to none.
Though he made no reference to
legislative policies pending in Wash
ington, the president indicated that
the protests being voiced against the
tariff bill were those of the special in
terests and not the masses.
Some of my fellow citizens and
some of their colleagues in Washing
ton city," he said now think that
they are hearing the voice of the
people of the United States when they
are only hearing the part that has be-
come vocal by moving down to Wash
ington and insisting upon it's special
interests
The president had spent strenu,
Gus day, fighting throughout for the
reform which he came to New Jersey
to advocate.

ment Stated.

Washington, May 3.-The new Chi

do upon complete organization of the
new government.
Interesting Situation.

tude of the five other powers, parties
to the six powe~ loan negotiation from
which the United States recently with
drew, announcing it's purpose to recog-
nize China and urging the others to do
the same.
1t is Known that some of them, at
least, required more than mere or
ganization of a national Legislature be-
tween which and the provisional eX-
ecutive serious friction already devel
oped and that they were originally dis
posed to await the installation of a
president chosen by constitutional
methods AMI with evident adequate
support to maintain himself.
All May Follow Suit.
On the other hand, the recent action
of Yuan Shin Kai in concluding a loan
for $125,000,000 with the five power
group is expected to prove powerful
incentive to those governments to sup
port Yuan Shih Kai by joining in the
recognition of China accorded by the
United States.

Autocratic Establishment.

One of the reasons why English Is
expected to become a world wide Ian
guage is that English people refuse to
learn another. For instance, at Mus
cat, at the entrance to the Persian
gulf, there lived for many years an
Englishman, supposed to be the only,
or almost the only, British resident on
the 1900 miles of Arabian coast line
from Alden to Koweit. 1t would seem
that he could hardly have escaped
knowing Arabic. Yet he confessed
that he could not speak dozen words
of that language. "But how do you
carry on your trader" some one asked.

The United Shoe Machinery Com
pany is the only real obstacle to the
formation of O shoe trust. We help
the small manufacturer to start in
business and keep going. He could
not afford to buy and care for his ma
chimes, but he can afford TO lease them
on the terms we give him based on
the number of shoes he makes-an
average of less than 2 2-3 cents a pair
and let us keep them up to date
That is fair arrangement. Some OF
the big fellows don't like our system,
because they think we ought to give
them special rates. But the little fell
lows stand with us because they know
we treat all manufacturers alike no
matter how many machines they use.
If it were not for our methods of doing
business there would be no small fac
tories anywhere and no prosperous

The decrease in the meat supply is
indicated by the February export fig
ures just compiled by the statistical
division CT the bureau of foreign and
domestic commerce. They show the
number of cattle exported in the eight
months ended with February, 1913,
but 1855 head, against 270,219 head in
the corresponding months of 1907, and
the quantity of fresh beef exported,
but 4,709047 pounds, against 1885,
$40 pounds in the corresponding
months Of 1907. That this shortage in
the expectations is due in part at least
to an actual reduction in the number
of cattle in the United States is evil
denced by the fact that the total num-
Der of cattle on farms, according to
figures of the department of agricul-
ture, was on January /, 1913, 5G,527,-
600, against 72,534,OO0 on January 1,
1907.

KEEPING oNE'e CHARACTER.
S. r. MORSE, Editor


Into every life there may come ex.
emples of the old adage about happen
Ing of the unexpected. There is an in
creasing tendency to spring all manner
of surprises, until one is sorely puz-
zled how to forecast what a day may
bring forth. Not seldom great ex-
pectations dwindle into irridescent
dreams, and the reputed tree laden
with golden fruit is bearing only
leaves. Then again many a Wilkins
Micawber has been reproduced in real
life since Dickens made so famous
the original for his rapid alterations
of dependency and hopefulness, re-
lieved by the reiterated conviction
something will turn up" On the con.
trary, Bunyan's pilgrim is described
as finding himself in certain section
OF road so miry it could not be mend
ed; and it was therefore called Slough
of Despond." Fortunately the pill.
grim, Christian by name, was by di.
vine helper drawn out of the miro
and sent on his way rejoicing heaven
ward. Later on, his wire Christiana,
with her two boys, had less trouble
with the slough, and happily joined
their loved ones gone before in blest
beyond the river. Sometimes one is
said to make a fool of himself. Now
here is a chance personally to unmake
that folly. Or one gets individually
SO vexed as to slip into some sequested
nook and kick himself. Rather take
to searching the scripture till you find
this good practical advice in two SINH
lar verses of the forty-second Pslsm:
why are thou cast down, o my soul,
and why disquieted within me? Hope
thou in Cod"
