STORY OF "LUCKY"
BALDWlN'S CONVERSION

In he American magazine Peter
Clark MacFarlane has a new series of
articles entitled. Those Who Have
Come Back" The first story in the se-
ries is about Lucky Baldwin, a cele-
brated New York sport" and conf
dence man, who was converted a good
many years g in the Jerry McAuley
mission. and now runs a mission Of his
own IN chicago. Following is the story
OF Baldwin's first connection with a
gospel meeting, which he fell into for
the purpose Of getting free coffee and
sandwiches. The story goes on:
he sat through a large part Of this
meeting in a kind of bestial slumber,
put with occasional lucid. intervals
When he stared about stupidity, heard
the testimonies that men around him
We're giving, and got some glinmering

was being painted.
AS he listened In his maudlin way
some sense of what it meant got
through Iucky's' ridged M knotted
skull. He weighed it all swiftly against
his own game and concluded that the
new scheme was better. The leader of
the meeting was deaf. and was wearing

his head.

awakened. As Mr.. Wyburn, kneeling
before n poor wretch. told the story

WOMEN AT ARMAGEDDoN.

From the metropolitan Magazine.


From the Metropolitan Magazine.
This whole women's movement is
not a battle for a nero ballot. These
women were here not only to demand
political recognition, but to protest
against all unjust conditions under
which the women of all ges have
labored. When you think OF the wom-
ems movement. therefore, do not let
your mind dwell on the question of
mere franchise, but loose your imagt-
nation until it beholds the women of
the whole world engaged In q battle
with the world-old injustice until you
see that this movement is already, for
one thing. a flaming, on-marching
battle against concentrated vice.
When Mrs. Gait offered her resolu-
ton concerning the white slave traffic
there was evident In the audience an
intense and u-nquenchable desire to
and more pity, and indignation that
such things could be, and tenderness
toward the victim Of the ages. The
resolutions presented to the congress
read:
~ I'VE send from this congress to
sl1ance a request to the governments of
all countries here represented that
they institute IN international inquiry
INTO the extent and Use Of cern-
mercialized vice.
(2) BE It resolved that the oma
suffrage organization of each country
ask Its own government to institute a
national inquiry IN he am Lines and
that I'm be included In the COM
mission"
Mrs. Cats speech In presenting the
resolution was eloquent of Womanis
incorporating attitude toward the
ancient evil.

money, the right~of education. Of free
speech, Of free publication, II you take

pendents. You have placed them In o
position where they may be COM

FILM TO FEATURE
FIRE Department.
Morristown's New Auto APP
paratus Will Figure in DR..
Reeds Scenario.
Especial to the Newark start


YOUNGSTOWN, Dec. 5.-Morris-
towns automobile fire department is
to be the feature of a moving picture
play, If the plans of DR.. R. Ralston
Reed, chairman of the fire committee
of the Board of Aldermen, carry.
When the automobile patrol wagon
for the Board of Fire Wardens is re-
ceived, and which is now under con-
struction in a Newark shop, the last
piece of auto apparatus for the local
department will be in service and the
department will be completely motor
lied.
To mark this event DIR. Reed, who
has been successful in writing several
scenarios for the movies" is at work
on a picture play in which the fire
department will play the principal
role DR.. Reed plans to have an in
teresting story woven around the de-
partments exhibition, a young girl
being saved from a burning building
or some such theme being used as a
peg upon which to hang an exhibition
by the firemen.
The proprietor of a local moving
picture theatre has invested in
picture camera, and his
operator will take the pictures. They
will portray the firemen waiting in
their houses for the alarm, the alarm
being turned in by little child, Illus
trating how simple it is to manipu-
late the towns fire-alarm system.
Then the apparatus will be filmed
coming from their various quarters.
The view tof the Speedwell avenue
firehouse will show Humane Engine
Company turning out with its big
Robinson, automobile pumping engine,
Resolute Hook and Ladder Company
with it's auto truck andthe Board of
Fire Wardens and it's patrol carrying
the equipment of the special police
who do fire duty.

DIRECT PRIMARIES
ISSUE CONFRONTS-
c. 0. P. MEETING
Passage of Measure Would
Eliminate Necessity of Ma
tiOnal Convention.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-The issue
OF direct presidential primaries,
brought into public discussion by
President Wilson's message prom
lses to be an important factor in de-
hberations of the Repubie;,1 Nation
al Committee here De mber Is.
Many believe Congress may provide
primaries that will do away with the
need of any nominating conventions
before the next presidential election.
The decision of the law commit
tee of the Republican National Com
mittee just made public, leaves but
one important change in Republican
rules to be made by a national con-
vention. That relates to the basis of
representation. While Republican
leaders believe the national commit
tee will call a convention for March
or April, some thought the direct
primary plan might influence some
committeeman against it. 1t was
pointed out that If direct primary
law were passed before the 1916 cleo
tions, the need for a change of Re-
publican representation would disap-
pear.
Senator Jones, member of the law
committee returned to Washington
loudy anu Sdlu plans were gong Tor
ward for a national conviction.
81 am in favor of some form of a
direct primary" he said. zone plan
that appears to be sound would pro-
vide for direct primaries in the States,
with national conventions, in which
delegates would sit in proportion to
the vote in the States. Each State
would opportion its delegates accord
ing to the strength of the respec-
tive party candidates and the ma
tional convention would make the
final choice"
Senator Cummins, one of the most
active advocates of rules revision, and
chairman of the Cancellation commit
tee. appointed in Chicago last spring.
declared today that discussion of
presidential primaries should not in
terfere with the holding of a special
convention II am strongly in favor
of direct primaries he said, but
there is no assurance that the direct
primary laws will be passed or at least
that they will not be long delayed. 1t
is our duty to go ahead with the con-
Vention plans we have outlined and
complete the reformation of Republi-
can rules that will make the party
machinery thoroughly responsible to
the will of the voters"

Thieves Take Two Horses in
Caldwell, but Abandon One

Horse thieves visited Caldwell
early this morning and got away with
two horses, two carriages and a set
of harness. Later Chief of Police
John Harkey found one of the horses,
which belongs to John Barker. of
Bloomfield avenue, North Caldwell.
Thieves evidently thought the sight
of the large truck horse attached to
a light buggy would attract too much
attention.
Besides taking a horse from Bar
ker's barn the thieves helped them
selves to a carriage After leaving
the Barker place the thieves paid a
visit to the barns of Frank Hopwald
and Edward Rathburn, of Elm road.
They got a buggy and set of har-
ness at the former place and light
carriage horse at the other barn.
The robbery must have taken place
after 1 O'clock this morning, because
Mr.. Rathburn was out until that
time. The police of surrounding
towns have been asked to look for
the thieves.
