STAMP BOOKS NETTING
S18O,OOO YEAR PROEIT

Washington, D. c., July 10
Stamp books netted the government
$lSO,OO0 profit last year and proved
so popular that Postmaster-General
Burleson has approved designs for
two more kinds which will make six
altogether
One will contain ninety-six one
cent stamps and will sell for 81,
and the other twenty-four one cent
and twenty-four two cent stamps
and will sell for rs cents. At pres
ent one cent stamps are sold in
books of twenty-four and two cent
stamps in books of twelve, twenty
four and forty-eight, selling for 25
cents, so cents and 81. The differ
ence between the value of the
stamps and the selling price is to
pay for the cost of the books, but it
more than does that. tl

inquiry, especially regarding the kill

desire to say that this new law re-
quires the hunter to obtain license
only where he is hunting for some
thing protected by the game laws of
the state. The frog is not protected
by the game laws, therefore, a Ii
cense is not necessary for hunting
frogs.
"These licenses will be issued
through the several county treasur-
ers as soon as properly prepared by
the state printer, which perhaps will
not be for a month or six weeks.
"Thereis no bird or animal class
ed as game that may be hunted at
this time of year. Upland or grass
plover may be killed after July 10.
The open season for other game does
not begin until September, and the
licenses will not be in the hands of
the proper authorities long before
that time"

He Selected and Acquired the Site

The Philadelphia Inquirer in Sun
days installment of the series of
articles which it is publishing on
" The State Hospital for the Criminal
Insane at Farview, Wayne County,"
tells about selection and acquisition
of the splendid tract of land upon
which the hospital stands. 1t reads
as follows:
DR.. Thomas G. Fitzsimmons had
been born and reared in that West
ern part of Wayne county where now
100 miles from Philadelphia and 100
miles from New York, the State hos
pital for the Criminal Insane, of
which he is the superintendent and
to the development of which he has
contributed so much, now stands.
He knew the possibilities of the
beautiful and verdant region, and he
directed the attention of Mr.. Walton
and other members of the commits
sion to it.
When Mr.. Walton, Mr.. Sproul and
the rest of the commission visited
the region their enthusiasm knew no
bounds. Here, indeed, they agreed,
was an ideal place for an establish
ment of the new institution and for
the fruition of those plans for the
humane and intelligent treatment of
the criminal insane for which it was
primarily designed.
Negotiations were entered into
with the Delaware & Hudson Rail-
road Company. The management of
the road saw an opportunity to have
developed the country through which
its siXteenmile Honesdale-Ca
dale branch runs by the establish
ment of State institution amid the
mountains of Western Wayne county.
1t offered the commission 220 acres
of land after the negotiations were
well under way. Five dollars was the
nominal sum paid for this first allot-
ment of land, although $4,000 had
been appropriated by the State Leg
islature for the purchase of a site
for the new institution.
Sought Arabic Land.
But the commission was not sat
isfied. Mr.. Walton and DR.. Fitz-
simmons, in continuing the negotia-
tions pointed out to the railroad
management that the land was not
sion acquired an additional 42O

rich already cultivated soil, which
had been occupied by Alexander Nc
Mullin, a Scotchman. For these
acres which brought the total up to
$40, the commission paid another
IS.
Subsequent negotiations with the
railroad secured further additions
to the property, until the commits
sion finally secured for the State a
total of 7S4 acres for no more than
SIS, still a third IS having been
paid for the last additions.
These acres comprise verdant
meadows suitable for pasturage;
fruitful farm land, upon which wide
variety of vegetables may be easily
grown; orchards in which apples
and other fruit trees may blossom;
table land that may be carpeted with
green sward overhung by shade
trees, amid which buildings of the
institution may be reared, and beau
tiful forests, from which an unlimit-
ed supply of timber may be secured,
or which may be transformed into
groves for recreation purposes.

Washington, July 10.-A1nounce-
ment was made at the White House
tonight that President Wilson on
next Monday afternoon will meet the
representatives of the Eastern trunk
lines and of the conductors and
4 trainmen who are threatening to
strike.
The conference at the White House
i has been arranged as the result of a
4 joint request by the railroads and
q the union employees. tic chief pur-
i pose is to convice President Wilson
! of the urgent necessity of the adop-
ton by Congress of an amendment
4 to the Erdman act, which will open
way for the settlement of the
present trouble by arbitration or
mediation.
Ready to Approve Amendments.
The representatives of both the
railroads and the employees are pre-
pared to give their immediate ap-
1 proval to the proposed amendment
to the Erdman act. The point which
they wish to emphasize is the neces-
sity for action at once.
Both sides refuse to arbitrate un-
+ der the Erdman law in it's present
4 form. They take the ground that
f. the law as at present constituted
does not provide for an adequate
i representation of employers and en-
8ployees and so far as the present
Eemergency is concerned the act is
useless.
Bill Passed by Senate.
A bill amending the Erdman act
was passed by the Senate several
days ago. 1t provides in cases of rail-
way strikes for board of arbitra-
tion of six members, two to be nam
led by the employers, two by the en-
ployees and the four thus named to
select the other two. In case of in
ability of the four members to agree
on the other two members of the
board the Government board of con-
ciliation and mediation is authorized
ITO fill the board of arbitration. The
bill reported by the House Judiciary
SCommittee differs from the Senate
bill in a number of important re-
Epects. 1t provides for arbitration
boards of three, six or nine members,
according to the wishes of the par
ties concerned.
The point at issue between the two
houses does not hinge on the COM
plement of the boards of arbitration.
has to do with the personnel of
he Government board of concilia-
8ion and mediation. The Senate bill
FProvides that this board, composed
Epf two members, shall be named by
he President. The House bill also
provides that these members shall be
Il selected by the President, but directs
hat both shall be Government Off
Pials, one of them to be the Commits
Bioner of Labor Statistics, an official
bf the Department of Labor; the
second member to be another official
bf the Government. Objection has
been made to this provision on the
ground that it would give the De-
bartment of Labor a voice in the
natter.

ing Harvey's Lake Victim Near
Spot Where Body Was Found.
Wilkes-Barre, July 9.-Another
witness was unearthed today in the
Alice Crispell case which tends to
make the story told by her lover,
Herbert Johns, weaker than it was
few days ago. This witness is Seph
Reese, of Plymouth, an automobile
dealer who was on the Harvey S
Lake road about 1870 o'clock on
the night of July 4, the night Miss
Crispell was murdered or acciden-
tally drowned.
Johns declared that he left the
girl some time before that and was
on his way to this city on the street
car. Reese stated to the county de-
tective today that he was four miles
out in the country beyond the lake
to take back a disabled automobile,
that he was coming around the lake
at the hour mentioned when he met
a girl wearing a light dress and a
young man with light suit and
panama hat They were close to-
gether and the young woman seemed
to be staggering indicating partial
intoxication.
When the light from the search
lamps of the machine directed
against the pair, the young man
turned his head to one side but
Reese secured a good look at the
features of the girl and is satisfied
that it was Miss Crispell. Later he
saw drunken man lying on a small
lumber pile near where the other
couple were walking along the road
County Detective Price is now
looking for the man who was lying
on the lumber pile.
