ACCUSES SULzER OF
BREACH OF PROMISE
Young Woman Says Governor
Proposed Marriage.

Philadelphia, July 2.-Suit for breach
Of promise of marriage was brought
In this city against Governor William
Sulzer of New York by Miss Mignon
Hopkins, a saleswoman here. Long
before this action was begun Miss
Hopkins, who boards at 002 Spruce
street, told her fellow dodgers that she
was on intimate terms with the Sui
Zers, and last fall on learning the news
of the New York election, exclaimed
that her best friend had been chosen
governor.
But at the outset the suit is shroud-
ed in mystery. Five years have elapsed
since Governor Sulzer was married,
and no explanation is given by the
plaintiff why she waited so long be-
fore suing.
Action in the suit was begun when
Theodore Cuyler Patterson, counsel for
the plaintiff, presented an affidavit to
Judge Ferguson in common pleas court
No. 3 for capias for the defendant.
AS it was alleged that the engagement
of Mr.. Sulzer and Miss Hopkins had
taken place in New York, the court
said he knew of no authority that
would warrant the issue of such pro-
ceedings, and Mr.. Patterson withdrew
the affidavit and left the courtroom.
The application for a capias was for
the purpose Of arresting the governor
in this city, as it was known that he
intended coming here on his way to
Gettysburg. 1t is expected that ex-
Judge Gay Gordon will be the de-
fendant's counsel and that he will ac-
cept service. The writ is made return
able on July 81.

HOW TO ACHIEVE A SUCCESS

National Crop Improvement service.l
MANY communities spend time and
money in trying to develop resources
that they haven't" says Mort. L.
Bixler, Secretary Meridian Progress
sive League, Meridian, Miss. "They
imagine that factories are necessary
to make city, and yet commercial
clubs have often secured factories,
which have been rank failures on ac-
count of the lack of natural resources.
We believe that, in order to achieve
lhe greatest success, every com.
munity must develop it's agricultural
resources and in order to do this, the
business men must cooperate with
the farmers in bringing about mod
ern methods
Many communities overlook the
greatest item, and, like the old fable
of the Dog ard the Water Dog in
attempting TO grasp something pos
sessed by others. neglect that which
'hay already have"

one-quarter of his S5,000,000 estate
in trust for his widow, a quarter in
trust for his only son, Walter S.
Halliwell, of New Canaan, Conn, and
half outright to Mrs. Duell, his
daughter.
Walter Porter, one of Mr.. Halli-
wells most intimate friends, marrieG
his widow two years later, in Feb
ruary, 1909, at the Hotel Plaza. He
was then general manager of the
sales department of the American
Tobacco Company, but later became
a member of the Stock Exchange
firm of Perkins, Erickson & Co.
Mrs. Porter was on her way home
from a European tour when her hus-
band was killed in an automobile
accident. His car overturned and
he was pinned beneath it when he
and three Wall street friends were
returning to his apartments at the
Plaza from his country home in the
Ramapo Hills. Since his death Mrs.
Porter has made her home at the
Hotel Gotham.

Crop Improvement
Agricultural Development by
Uniting All Interests to Assist.
TEAM WORK,
How to Develop Agriculture and
Commerce Through a County
Wide Club.

National Crop Improvement Service1
There is a certain class of men, and
unfortunately many of them are now
in authority, who look with suspicion
and prejudice upon the development
of all agricultural projects, except
their own particular one.
w, J. Bryan. Secretary of State, IN
talk before the Chamber of Com
merce, Trenton, New Jersey, during
March, said:
Team work is the slogan of mod
ern thought. The surest test of a
mans sanity is his willingness and
ability to cooperate with others in a
great work. The surest evidence of a
mans insanity is his inability to CO.
operate"
1t is the purpose of the Crop I'm
provement Committee of the Council
Gil of Grain Exchanges to learn of
the good work of all the forces, and
to encourage the County Farm
Bureaus to adopt as many of these
plans, for their own development, as
possible.
All of these projects must be car
ried along together, which means
team work. This can only be accom-
plished by an organization, which par
takes of both an agricultural and a
commercial club, with practical COM
mittees appointed to take charge of
each phase of the work.
Modern life is so complex that,
like the game of Jack Straws, it is
almost impossible to segregate one
subject without disturbing the entire
pile.
"ODe thing at a time" is a very
good slogan, but who shall say which
one thing shall be developed at the
expense of all the others?
This world is made of little things,
and the great come by simple addi-
ton. Therefore, in appointing county
wide committees, it is necessary 70
select men who have a financial in
terest in the success of that portion
Of the work, which is placed in their
charge. Then by correlating all of
this work and by arousing a COM
munity spirit, the work in each county
will become success.

RUTH COLE HALLIWELL
PORTER TO WED AGAIN,

Announcement has been made of
the engagement of Mrs. Ruth Halli-
we'll Porter, of Hotel Gotham, New
York, to Warren Clark Van Slyke, a
well known lawyer of that city. Mrs.
Porter was formerly Miss Ruth Alice
Cole, of this place, and has many
friends here. To a reporter for the
New York Morning World, after the
announcement had become public,
Mrs. Porter said she expects to be
married in August. The Evening
World, of Friday, June 20, reported
the engagement as follows:
Friends of Mrs. Ruth Alice Halli-
well Porter and of Warren Clark Van
Slyke, a well known lawyer of this
city, whose home is at No. PA East
Seventeenth street, have received
announcement Of the engagement of
the couple. 1t is the third romance
in the life of Mrs. Porter.
She was Miss Ruth Alice Cole, a
trained nurse, and in 1906 she was
called to attend Charles E. Halli-
we'll, first vice-president of the Amer
lean Tobacco company, in the Hotel
Majestic where Mr.. Halliwell had

the acquaintance begun at his bed
side was continued later, Mr.. Halli-
well frequently meeting his former
nurse in the home of his married
daughter, Mrs. Holland Duell, OF
New Rochelle, whose close friend
Miss Cole became.
On Oct. 4 of the same year-19Vu
Mr.. Halliwell and Miss Cole were
married in All Angels church and
went to live at the Holland House
Their romance lasted less than a
year, for in May, 1907, Mr.. Halli-

while entertaining at a dinner and
died shortly afterward. His will left

A new road law enacted by the
recent Missouri Legislature that ap-
plies to every county in Missouri is
what is designated as the County
Seat Road Dragging Law" the pur-
pose and provisions of which are to
have all of the public roads connect
ing the county seat towns of all ad-
joining counties improved by a regu-
lar systematic plan of road dragging.
This law provides for the appoint
ment of county highway board by
the county court, to consist of three
members, Of which the county high
way engineer is one, who hold their
positions for two years and serve
without compensation. This board,
acting with the state highway en-
gineer, is authorized and required to
select "the most practical road from
the county seat to the county seats
OF each adjoining county" After
these particular routes, which are to
be designated as county seat roads,
have been selected the state high
"oJ Sh6iilNNl ~ llHCo u lllG state
auditor the number of miles of such
highway in each county. The county
highway board contracts to have such
roads dragged under certain pre-
scribed regulations at a cost per mile
per year OF not exceeding SIS, which
amout is paid out of the state good
roads fund, and all claims under these
contracts are audited jointly by the
state highway engineer and the
county highway board and certified
to the state auditor for payment, and
these payments to- the several coun-
ties are made direct and without any
requirement that the Tcounties dupli-
cate said amount or any portion
therof. In other words, it is direct
free donation from the state road
fund to the several counties.

COURTESY TO CHILDREN

Great injury is done not only
to the present happiness of chill
dren, but to their future charac-
ter and conduct, by lack Of po-
liteness in our intercourse with
them. Their possessions are their
own. How often do we forget
that They are ridiculous trifes,
they are worthless and in our
way, yet we have no right to
throw them out and burn them
without warning or consultation.
A sisters or an aunt's gentle
persuasion will do much to gain
pleasant consent to yielding up
the treasures which cucumber
too much space or are laid down
in improper places. A box or
basket provided to hold these
priceless sticks and stones and
once or twice little pleasant aid
in gathering them and the col
lector will be gained over to
what he sees will surely preserve
his property and at the same time
the little fellow will have learned
respect for other peoples prop
erty and the proper way to ask
leave to touch and handle.
While mothers are busy with
their often overwhelming duties
it often happens that to an elder
sister much care of the children
who are able to amuse them
selves is given, and here she will
have a delightful chance to help
them to acquire the attractive
manner which is such help in
future life and give them prac-
teal demonstration of the COM
fort and joy Of home governed
by courtesy to old and young
alike.

ICE CREAM AND MUSIC CAN'T
MIX.

The Hornell Tribune says: AS a
result of orders issued by the police
department yesterday proprietors Of
the confectionery stores and ice
cream stores were warned not to
play their pianos on Sunday here
after.
The order took effect Sunday and
according to the proprietors of these
stores it has raised small sized
riot. 1t is contended that music at
these places is one of the leading
features and can in no way be called
harmful.
Just why the orders were issued
is not evident to these men who be-
lieve that they have not been dealt
a fair deal in that the moving pic
ture houses are allowed to have
music.

With very few exceptions, the ex-
penses Of wedding are met by the
parents of the bride or by the bride
herself If she be an orphan.
The parents pay for the brides trous-
seau. They also meet the expenses Of
engraving the invitations, announce
ments and cards, with the mailing of
them. The cost of music at a church
during the wedding, the decorations at
both church and home, the awning at
the door and the servant at the church
door are met by the parents. They pay
for the carriages that take the brides
maids and bride to the church and for
any reception or breakfast afterward.
If you have not a great amount of
money it Is foolish to make an eXpen-
sive display in the form of a large
formal wedding. Indeed, the tendency
is apparent among many sensible peo-
pie to make the ceremony simple and
unpretentious. Unpaid bills and use
less expenses are not a good beginning
for married couple. A wedding that
entails sacrifice and hard work on the
part of the parents should never be.
1t is now no longer incumbent on the
parents Of the bride to provide her
with her household linens.
This is an old custom and is observed
as much as it is ignored. Marking on
the contents Of the linen chest, If this
be provided, is in the form of initial or
monogram Of the unmarried name Of
the bride,

Burning Without Fire.

To cut thread inside a bottle with
out touching it in any way is very
easy, although it does not sound so.
Tie shoe button to a thread, tie
the thread to bent pin and insert the
pin in a cork. Now choose a large bot
tie of thin, clear glass and push the
cork into its mouth, allowing the thread
to hang down inside. Now place the
bottle in a strong beam of sunshine
and concentrate the rays upon the
thread by a magnifying glass. The
smallest of glasses will suffice to burn
the thread. 1t is better to use black
thread, as this burns more readily.
