Many sewers find 1t difficult to
make buttonholes in thin materials,
but If this precaution is taken, you
will find It an easy matter.
Before cutting the buttonhole baste
a strip of muslin or lawn beneath the
portion where the buttonholes are to
be cut. Cut the buttonhole through
both thicknesses and buttonhole stitch
the edges. When they are completed
cut away the material underneath
close to the buttonhole, and the re-
suit will be a firm, perfect button
hole.
Rompers for children require q
great many buttonholes. If loops OF
soutache braid are substituted, they
will serve the purpose. Fasten the
loops securely so that they will moi
pull out.

GOTHAM GRAFT FUND
$1,2OO,OOO YEARLY

Association collects Funds From
Divekeepers Who Want "Protec-
ton"
New York, Mar. Through evil
dence in the form of a letter which
]. J. McGrath, a saloonkeeper, admit
ted before the grand jury that he
wrote to his manager directing the
payment of money to a cavilian col
lector. District Attorney Whitman was
able to establish to his satisfaction
that the excise graft, since 1t was ta-
ken out OF the hands of the precinct
and district commanders has been
centralized in fund which approxi-
mates s1,2O0,000 annually.
McGrath said that the time of in
stituting the method of paying PRO
lection" through an association instead
of through the police coincided with
the time at which Mayor Gaynor is-
sued his orders forbidding policemen
to enter saloons.

INITIATED LAWS ARE
HIT HARD BY COURTS

Colorado Supreme Bench Holds That
Legislature Can Repeal Popular
Vote.
Denver, Colo, Mar. THE state
supreme court rendered an opinion
holding that the legislature could re-
peal law initiated and adopted by
the voters and could insert in any law
a so-called Saving clause" which
would prevent its being referred to
the voters.
The decision was rendered in re-
sponse to questions by the state SEN
ate relative to the status of two MI
ners' eight-hour laws. One of these
laws passed by the Eighteenth Cen
eral assembly and referred to the Vot-
ers at the election last November, had
been repealed by an initiated law,
both having been approved at the el-
ection.
No questions were submitted to the
court after the introduction OF piil
similar to the eigh-hour law passed
by the eighteenth general assembly,
with view to determining the pos
sibility of reenacting the law at this
time with a clause which would pre-
vent it's being referred to the voters

THE CaNflDIHd JlILER

Three months ago Jaier Asch was informed
that w. s. Kim, a Korean prisoner in his charge,
was carrying on business that had, to say the
least, an exceedingly suspicious aspect A fei-
lowsprisoner who had served his sentence and
was released complained to the Star Bulletin
that Kim was being shown undue favors by
Asch, and mentioned particularly that the jailerl
drove the Korean around town while the pseudo
prisoner attended to private business.
The Star Bulletin informed the police depart
ment of the complaint made by the re-
leased prisoner. Within an hour Jailer Asch Wis
tied this paper to deny the complaints in toto,|
explaining that be was keeping very careful
watch over Kim's action. The jailer was then
told of the statements made by the released pris-
oner. Mr. Asch declared that the complaints
were entirely due to resentment against him and
reiterated that he was keeping a personal watch
over what Kim did.
Now the police charge that Kim has been car
rying on an amazing series of bunco games, and
under the very eye of Jailer Aschs 1t is stated
that Kims smartness entirely deceived the jailer.
The point of this little excursion into rather
recent history is that fellow prisoner of Kim's
months ago Hdue eUliptdiue VI ehc snAOicsiis az
items, charged that Asch was showing the man
undue favors and giving him undue liberty,
and Asch at that time was told of these things.
This paper reported the complaints to him and
gave him the name of The man who made
them. He declared that the charges ought to be
utterly ignored because they we're made by re-
leased offender. The Star Bulletin did not re-
ceive the complaints in confidence, but after re-
porting the facts to the police and even more
fully to the jailer himself, felt that it would be
better to allow Asch to take any action he might
see fit without publicity or criticism, particu-H
larly on his earnest representation that the
charges were false and due to personal spite
The discoveries of the police now suggest very
strongly that the jailer was altogether too ten
der-hearted and confiding.
