BY a decree filed in the supreme court
of New York few days ago, the execu-
tive and trustees under the will Of Joseph
Pulitzer are directed to pay S700 900
to the New York philharmonic society
with 2ia per cent interest, dating from
December 4, 1912. The court ruled that the
payment was to be immediate. THE de-
cree was entered on a decision by Phoenix
Ingraham, referee in proceeding brought
by the Pulitzer trustees to determine
whether or not the Philharmonic society
has complied with the terms OF the
WILL" says the Sun. Mr. Pulitzer orig
inally left the society $4,000. but in a
codicil he left as an additional bequest
to the society part of the income from
the fund set aside for his sons Joseph and
Herbert Pulitzer on condition that the
society had paying membership OF over
1900 within three years from his death.
The trustees agreed to make a s200, 900 pay
ment on account of this income in case
the referee found that the society had
fulfilled the terms" Referee Ingraham re-
ported that the society had 1859 members
and is entitled to the money.

Two Campaign Statements

William Sulzer has filed state
ment of his expenses in his success
full campaign for the New York leg
islature. He testifies that about 5000
was spent in his behalf, but that he
handled none of it.. Mr.. Suffers past
experience with statements of cam
paign expenses evidently has taught
him a lesson. His failure to account
for all the contributions made to his
fund during his candidacy for the
governorship had it's outcome in his
impeaehuant and removal from office.

GREAT NEW JERSEY INVENTOR
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
~ N October "a Philip Mohr, benefac-
tor of mankind and especially of
womankind, q man who added
an unearned but genuine increment to the
sum of happiness, died in Elizabeth, n. j.
He was the inventor or one of the inven-
tors of ice cream soda, a food beverage
now much more essential to millions than
bread or meat. like Neptune, Uranus
the steamboat, electric telegraph, tele-
phone and most gerat discoveries this
was found by more than one; perhaps
several found it almost simultaneously
Some of our correspondents have discussed
the primacy the dates and testimony in
the case. Our bubbling contemporary, the
Soda Fountain, presents in their own
words the cases of the chief claimants to
this high honor. In 1911 Mr.. Mohr as
serted in an interview with soda foun-
tain man that he discovered ice cream
soda in an Elizabeth store IN 1858. 1t was
the gift of fortune. He "carelessly placed
a spoonful of ice cream in a glass Of
sarsaparilla soda water" tasted and found
1t good. and soon had his '1ce cream soda"
sign out.
Mr.. Mohr's memory was perfectly good
but If it be objected that he was 81 at
the time of the interview. and the date
1858 cannot be substantated otherwise.
his son now. living in Elizabeth remem-
bers seeing ice cream soda served in his
fathers store in 1872.
Mr.. Robert Nj. Green, Sr., head of firm
of soda fountain manufacturers of Phila-
delphia, tells his story of Independent dis
covery thus:
"One afternoon in an ice cream parlor
was refreshing myself with a dish of
ice cream when the waitress placed n
glass of water beside my plate. Half ab-
sentmindedly l noticed that other patrons
also were served with glasses of water
On the second inspiration came to me that
If ice cream and water went together in
this way in the confectionery, why
should the patron consume them sepa-
rately? Why not make one dish Of
the two? There was the germ. Call it in
vention. discovery or what you will, there
was the idea, the inspiration.

THE LONGEST TUNNELS
the Engineering Record.

From the Engineering Record.
The great improvement in tunneling
methods and machinery made in the last
decade is responsible for the large de-
velopment that has taken place in the
railroad world in this and other countries.
Mountain ranges which heretofore had
defied the railroad pioneer are being
pierced at their very base and must yield
to the slow but irresistible work of the
tunnel driver.
In the Alpine region the Simplon and
Loetschberg tunnels have proved that
length combined with great everything
depth is no longer an unsurmountable

CONXICTS ON HONOR

From the survey.
The "honor system" of using convicts
for work on roads, successfully begun by
Colorado, extensively adopted by Oregon
and recently tried in Washington state,
has Just had it's first test farther east
In Illinois one day in September As
prisoners, including murderers, forgers,
holdup men, thieves and other varieties
of offenders, went out from Joliet peniten-
tiary. BY day they work like human be-
ings' under a superintendent; at night
they live practically unguarded in camp
over which flies a banner with the signii1-
cant name Camp Hope" Make good,
fellows" called the 400 who remained be-
hind; "for Gods sake, make good and
help us all to get out into the sunshine
again."
The Illinois test will be watched by
other states. and particularly, no doubt,
by Wisconsin, where the plan is soon TO
be tried, and in Florida, where it is COM
ing to general attention.
Wen just eat up that work on Mon
day." exclaimed one of the men, as the
open air and fresh confidence kindled his
enthusiasm and vitality
Incidents have been reported which are
significant as showing the temper of this
honor squad. newspaper photographer,
hurrying into Dixon to mail a batch of
photographs, left his coat at Camp Hope.
He had intended to return, but did not
His coat lay in an exposed place and a

The United States department of justice

The United States department of justice
is investigating the charge made by prom
inent citizens of North and South Caro-
buyers of the Norfolk. Va. district. The
complaint is that the alleged trust has
forced the purchasing price of COOLERS
bought from farmers down from x.65 to
sl.l5 a bushel, and that the trust folks
made 20 per cent last year. This will not
affect the retail price of peanuts. and
there need be no fear that the fioober
side dishes upon WHICH Fancy, the ele-
phant, is regaled, will be curtailed in the
least.

Mr.. Ward and civ Finances

ut is reported from Chicago that the
top of a mans head was recently blown
off in his efforts to understand the pro-
visions of the income TAX law," said n
well known taxpayer familiar with city
affairs. ut is to be hoped that a similar
fate will not attend our commissioner of
finance and accounts, George r. Ward,
in his efforts to unravel the citys finan
cial muddle, as we need him in our
business but If perseverance and sus-
tanned effort will enable man to make
a square peg fit round hole 1 believe
Mr.. Ward will come near doing it.
There must surely be something doing
at the city hall judging from the nightly
illuminations In the city comptrollers Of
flee. This comptroller, Mr.. Abbott. is no
more fingers he might do more work.
but I doubt it. He seldom leaves any
small change on the counter and what he
finds there goes into the drawer before
anybody else can get his hands on it.
1.-The governors decision not to call an
extra session is indeed disappointing and.
very hard blow to birmingham. 1t
means four years more of delay, which
at our present rate of deficit will add
about s1,500,000 to our already enormous
floating debt. Where are we going to
get it? Should not Birmingham's needs
alone appeal to the governor as sufficient
rea son for calling an extra session of
the legislature? The state is surely frying
enough fat out of Birmingham that her
request in this time of her direst finan-
cial distress should go unheeded.'
