to the local government board IL was
stated that the rate collector could find
no boatman bold enough to take him
across. Some years ago two rate COL

Lehman testified that he was vice
president of the Fair company, and
admitted that he had "a girls in his
employ to whom he paid only So a
week. =
Presumably those "a girls are
among those whom Mrs. Lehman
thinks are getting 'far more than
they are worth"
Lehmann's examination followed
the lines taken with the other en-
ployers for some time. And then
Lieut.. Gov. O'Hara leaned forward in
his chair.
"Mr. Lehman" he said, and his
tone was so earnest that everyone
In the room Strengthened up expec-
family, SIS there trust agreement

Lehmann's eyes opened wide. Then
he redeemed slowly, under O'Hara's
gaze.

sort of an organization of the

"oh, no." said Lehman, merely
the State Merchants Association"
A ripple of laughter ran around
the press tables.
"And what" asked O'Hara, his
voice heavy with sarcasm, "does the
State Street Merchants Association
do at its meetings?"
Lehman fidgeted about for full
minute before answering. And when
be did he was not quite definite.
"oh," he said, different things"
Indeed" said O'Hara, "and when
did the association hold its last meet
ing?"
"LI-I don't know" said Leh-
mann. y.

citation hold a meeting within the

He did not seem to realize that he
was called before the bar of the peo-
pie. Quite coolly and evenly, he in
suited every decent man and woman
in Illinois.
"oF COURSE" He SAID, IN AN
SWER TO A QUESTION, 1.-THE
PARENTS CONTRIBUTE TOWARD
THE SUPPORT OF OUR POOREST
PAID WORKERS. THAT'S WHAT
PARENTS ARE FOR"
AND, A MINUTE LATER, IN THE
SAME TONE, WHICH THORNE
DOUBTLESS CONSIDERS THE
PROPER TONE FOR AN ARISTo-
GRAFT, HE SAID:
"oH, THE GIRLS TO WHOM WE
PAY SMALL WAGES ARE ONLY
HALF-BAKED; THEY DON'T KNOW
ANYTHING"
l don't think that Thorne saw the
effect of his -blooded brutality.
l don't think he saw the girl in the
third row dry the tears from her
eyes, nor heard her say to her COM
panion:
81 don't care, know crying makes
my nose red; but don't care; can't
help it. %
don't think he saw Clara Laugh
lin, the magazine writer, bend for
ward and scribble hastily in her note~
book. l don't think he heard Mabel
Tahaferro, the actress, turn flashing
eyes upon Miss Laughlin and say:
did you EVER hear the like of
that?"
And l don't think he realized the
meaning of the gasp that ran
around the room a moment later
when he admitted that the profits of
Montgomery Ward & Co. last year
were $2,370,000. -. -.

MURDER TRIALS.
Killing of Engineer at Petersburg
and Operators at Scots
vile.

Petersburg, Va, Sept. 18.-The
September term of the hustings court
will begin today, with quite large
commonwealth docket, the accumu-
lation of cases for two months. Prob
ably the most interesting case On the
docket is that of Waverly Blanks,
charged with the killing of George
w. Nunnally on the night OF June
27. Nunnally was an engineer on
the Norfolk and Western Railway,
and Blanks was a fireman, frequently
working with Nunnally. The two
men had long been close friends. Inc
shooting occurred in Nunnally's
room in boarding house in Grove
avenue. With no eye witnesses,
ilNunnally was shot in his bed and
Blanks has always claimed that he
was shot by Nunnally. Both men
were shot with Nunnally's pistol
The tragedy is alleged to have been
caused by remarks by Nunnally con-
corning the Blanks fam;!s.

!rator at Scottsville, Va, several
weeks ago, will be taken to that
,place today for preliminary hearing
AND will be rushed back to Richmond
as soon as possible thereafter in the
event he is held for grand jury ac-
ton. Jackson has been in the Henri
co Jail for safe keeping since his ar
rest near Scottsville. Authorities in
charge of the investigation say thai
among Jackson's possessions was
hfounG a ct~proof vest and also q
Fletective badge, indicating that he
was wont to pose as a sleuth. Har.
rison was mysteriously shot tc
death while at his post of duty one
night and it is believed that robbel!
was the motive behind the crime, al
though the murderer escaped without
any booty.
