Worth 100000 Lost

CHICAGO, July 1.-THE lives of
many passengers on the Goodrich

the vessel went to the bottom of the
Chicago river with 100000 worth of
cargo still on board.

LONDON. July 17.-England now
has dress controversy similar to
that in the United States. The ex-
travagant Eve-like styles are being
condemned by the clergy on every
side, and numerous letters of protest
published in the newspapers to-day
attest the disapproval of the public at
large.
A writer in The Evening STANDARD
said that "a woman ten years ago
wearing styles seen on the streets to-
day would have been disgraced for
life and stamped with the scarlet
badge. The fashionable gowns being
worn In public are so himsy and
transparent that the wearers' muscles
can be seen underneath. Nothing is
worn underneath"

DO not argue with an ignorant
man. for you can never convince him
he is wrong"
Recorder Nash r. Broyles, quoting
Mr.. Epictetus, the late well known
Greek philosopher spoke thusly
Thursday.
Following this declaration Mr..
Broyles then declined to argue with
Mayor James G. Woodward over the
action in the case Of Grin Freeman,
an alleged notorious blind tiger op-
orator, whom Broyles had sentenced
to a $500 fine and a 29-day term in
the stockade, when the Mayor de-
clared he did not propose to see the
city prison turned into a modern ST.

Recorder"
lmpugns His Legal Lore.
Mayor Woodward knows as much
about law as a hog does about polit-
ical economy" was the Recorders
avowal.
However. to set himself right"
Judge Broyles issued the following
statement
Yesterday a man named Freeman,
the most notorious blind tiger out Of
captivity. was convicted Of selling
whisky. The evidence was over
welming. Five white men testified az
to Freeman's guilt and one said he
had been buying whisky from Free
man for the last seven years.
Claims Breach Of Promise.
This is the same Freeman who
Mayor Woodward freed from the
stockade and whose fine ne reduced
from $500 to $3.50 He did this, too,
after asking me about the case over
the telephone and assuring me that
he would not interfere with my de-
cision.
In regard to the Court of Appeals
reversing me in many cases, l have
this to say: Since / have been Re-
corder the Court OF Appeals has sus-
tanned me in ten cases whers they
have reversed me in one.
The most ludicrous act of Mayor
Woodward was in connection with the
DR.. Roper case, in which l was sus-
tanned both by the Fulton County Su-
perior Court md the Court of APP
peals. But Mayor Woodward calmly
announced, with a straight face, that
he had decided the evidence was i'll
sufficient to convict.
IAN Enemy to Society,""
He therefore reversed the decision
of the Recorder, the Superior Court
and the Court of Appeals-and this
by man who knows about as much
about law as a hog knows about po-
litical economy.
Il must say that a man who blocks
the courts in an effort TO stop law
violations of this and other similar
criminals is an enemy to civilization
and to society"

plifed his criticism Of Recorder
Broyles. He declared he was restrain
ing his feelings in an effort 10 keep

BRAVES FIRE FOR KITTENS
Fremen Rescue Mother Found Carry
Ing Their Llfeless Bodies
Through the Smoke.

New York Maternal instinct led a
zig black cat to ignore flames and
smoke in an effort to shield her six
little kittens in the six-story loft build
ing at No. ia West Seventeenth
street, until the firemen had to carry
her out of the place to save her life.
She was limp and almost suffocated
when the firemen picked her up, but
was still making valiant fight for
her offspring All six of the little
fluffy felines we're dead, but the
mother was struggling toward the
front windows with two of them in
her mouth in hopeless effort to get
them into the fresh air.
The fire started in the underwear
shop of Fisher &c Co. on the sixth
floor of the building, When Lieuten-
ant Comiskey reached the place with
his fire company he noticed the cat
walking feebly toward the front of the
loft. She had in her mouth the two
little kittens, but the fire had attained
such Roadway that the lieutenant's at
tention was diverted from the mother
cat for a few minutes.
When the fire was under control he
again saw the cat standing over a
box. He went up and found that there
were four more kittens. All OF them
had been smothered by the smoke, as
were the two the mother had been
carrying. The lieutenant carried the
mother to the street and Acting Chief
Ross decided to adopt her. He took
her to the engine house at Sixth ave-
nue. and Thirty-third street, where she
will spend the rest OF her life In lux
| ury.

BISHOPS POINT WELL MADE
Rebuke to Which II is Hard to See
How the curate Could Make
an Answer.

Bishop Oliphant of LANDAU had a
well-to-do young man as curate who
had rather sporting instincts. He
kept his own horses and always drove
tandem. The bishop disapproved, and
decided to administer rebuke on a
favorable opportunity. Both the bishop
and the curate, each driving in his
own way, met near the historic Cow
and Shutters. The bishop, of course,
was driving two abreast, and the cur
ate tandem, as usual.
Il really must protest" said the
bishop, at your driving about In such
a manner"

London.-Up to date no cabinet min
lister in this country has threatened to
go on the lecture platform on the
ground that his official salary is in
adequate to his needs. although David
Lloyd George recently assured an In
vestigation committee that he was a
poor man on the $4,000 year-or
over twice as much as is paid to any
member of President Wilson's official
family-which he receives as chan
cellor of the exchequer.
Ministers of the crown are in re-
ceipt of salaries and enjoy "perquis-
ties" which must make the mouths OF
American ministers water If they
know about them. One of them draws
an actual stipend OF $4,000, or as
much as the presidency of the United
States was worth until few years
ago, while another gets $4,000 a year

often than not amount to more than
