HEPBURN, BACK, EXPLAINS

Government Prosecution of Railroad
Case Scares OF European
Investors, Says Banker.

A. Barton Hepburn, chairman
of the Chase National Bank. arrived
from Europe this week. He has been
away four months.
Regarding financial conditions
abroad Mr.. Hepburn said that Eng
land is enjoying an unprecedented
era of business activity and prosper
ity, and its shipyards are so busy that
an order for four Il, 000-ton ships
had to be placed with French build
ers.
to be placed with French builders.
THE same condition prevails in
all industries" continued Mr.. Hep
burn. Business is SO good that the
English people do not think it can
last. Germany is also expanding in
her home industries, and her bank
ers, merchants and government work
in sympathetic harmony in promot-
ing individual and national interests,
and they work effectively.
Germany is using her
and is borrowing from other ma
tions. There is no apprehension as
to German credit.
"All German resources, private
and public, individual and govern
mental, are tremendously enlisted il
the same cause, the promotion of
German prosperity.
France is practically the only
banking nation, England's resources
being largely absorbed by her own
industries and colonies. France real.
ICES her position, knows that the Dor
rowers must come to her and she
proposes to exact favorable terms.
Regarding European investment
in American securities, the attitude
may be thus summarized: AS to your
rails, your principal roads are being
prosecuted by the government or
threatened by the government. Your
industries, those that are large
enough and sufficiently potential to
attract investors, are in the same con-
dition-actual or pending govern
ment prosecution for alleged viola
tons of the law. Why should we
put money in them? Why should we
invest in American rails or indus
trials? Europe cannot conceive that
your government will fail in enforc-
ing its construction of the law
American securities cannot COM
mand confidence in Europe until the
properties issuing such securities
command confidence at home. Any
securities placed abroad under exist
ing conditions must pay a price great
err than their normal credit justiies.
or would in normal conditions be
necessary.
1T is certainly incumbent upon
craftsmanship to bring harmonious
cooperation out of the present war
fare and confusion. and to do it
speedily"

FATHER OF THIRTY CHILDREN

1t has been discovered that at st.
German due Bots there exists a man,
Pierre Jean Bossu, who has been the
father of thirty children. He lives in
a miserable matched hut which he
built himself of mud and wood. 1t
is now a crazy affair which sways in
the wind and leaks when it rains. 1t
contains one room only, and it is in
the room that he has brought up his
family.
OF the first marriage there were
seventeen boys and one girl. and by
his second wife he became the father
of seven more boys and five girls. To-
day there are only ten living.
The children have frequently slept
to the number of seven or eight, in
the same room with their parents. on
a bed composed of four planks.
Their father is now II. and of a very
cheerful disposition. His wages
have never exceeded $1.75 per week,
which he earns by cultiyating vege-
tables. The state makes him a pay
ment of $1.75 a year per child for
having raised a family of more than
three children up TO the age of 16.
His brother Claude has also been
married twice. and has a family of
twenty-three.

But not SO the letter that Minnie
Maddern Fiske is sending out to the
editors"
Firstly. because the broad, alert
and active ~humaneness of Mrs. Fiske
that expresses itself in doing things
that sadly, need doing, is so well
known.
Secondly, because most editors, be-
ing men, are entirely in sympathy
with her educational fight against the
blood-stained finery women array
themselves in; and are not without at
least a slight, rational repugnance in

Therefore Minnie Madden Fiske is
not an unheeded s~pokeswoman of the
Audubon Society in its appeal to
women on behalf of the mother bird
and her babies. whose plumage of
maternity, the a%igrette, they eovet.
Mrs. Fiske who has already proved
her sincere sympathy for animal life
by what she has done out of her peck
ct and her heart for neglected cats,
now asks, on behalf of the Audubon
Society, the attention of all women to
the measure that will be brought be-
fore congress prohibiting the impor-
tation of aigrettes into this country.

cost their fnery is obtained to set
their faces against such finery.
She reminds US that Roosevelt
said. 1T is a disgrace to America
that we should permit the sale of the
aigrettes." She calls attention to the

GOP-LINERS IN THE NATIONAL
GAME NOT GIVEN TO BOAST
ING OF THEIR PERSONAL
ACHIEN EMENTS.

When the autobiographies of the
four pitchers entitled to places in
baseballs Hall of Immortals shall
have been written, the stories of their
great deeds will probably read more
like so many essays in a personal
shyness contest than a record of the
four no-hit, no-man-reach-first-base
games in major league history.

ing among baseball stars, against
Boosting ver to be broken, the
offense would be most easily forgiven
Addie Joss. Cy Young. John Ward
and Lee Richmond; yet, strangely
enough, there cannot be found in
print a single sentence, of which one
of these pitchers is the author,
wherein the slightest credit is taken
to himself.
Richmond pitched his norman
reaeh-first for Worcester against
Cleveland, July Il. 1880. Ward was
with Providence when he pitched
against Buffalo. July II, 1880. Cy

while he was with Boston. Joss

Sox, October 2, 1908.

Cy Young was even briefer in his
recital of his great feat.

THE NEW CENTRAL.

The makers of motion pictures have invaded the theatrical realm to se- cure new and interesting dramas, and like every other person who Talks shop" they invariably produce a con- edy film when they hark back to their own calling for the subject. Such a film is the Pathe comedy "The Van deyile Stars Vacation" a clean, catchy comedy which comes to the New Central today. The story is that of a vaudeville actor who spends his vacation largely in the company of the young ladies of the summer re. sort. and there are some eXeruciat- insly funny situations shown in the run of the film.
 Thieves" comes from Vitagraph, the story of a lost diamond and al erroneous suspicion directed against an innocent party.
