could not have been loved any better by
Mary Eta II. she had been beautiful
French doll, and she was tended with
as much care as though she had been
a live baby.
Mary Etta's mother was widow and
very poor; she earned enough TO keeo
herself and Mary Eta from starving
and pay for one little room in the top
of a poor tenement house by washing
and ironing.
one day in the winter Mary Eta s
mother was coming home from work
when the rain was freezing as fast as
it fell, her feet slipped and down she
went in the middle of a crossing. and
a driver could not stop his horses, and
the wagon went over her leg.
They took Mary Etta's mother to the
hospital and late in the evening some
one found out that the poor woman had
a little girl at home who was probably
crying for her mother.
One of the doctors went for Mary
Eta and found her crying in the corner
of cold room.
OF course, the mother was not able to
leave the hospital for long time, and
the room rent came due and Mary Eta,
who was staying nights with one OF
the neighbors, heard the landlord ask II
there was any furniture that could be
sold for the rent .- .
Where will we live when mother
comes home IL you take the furniture!
asked Mary Eta with wide open eyes.
"You will have to buy some more,
said the landlord. thinking only OF MS
overdue rent
But we won't have any money ana
there is nothing left to SELL" answered
Mary Eta, who had seen rings ana
watch handed over to the pawnproker
some time ago.
.I guess you will have to sell that
doll: she ought to bring a good price as
a relic" answered the hard-hearted
man.
And this gave Mary Eta something
to think about when it was time 1or
her mother to come out Of the hospltai.
Mary Eta did not tell her mother
that the furniture had been sold, ana
none of the neighbors had the heart TO
tell the poor woman she was without
home. and, being poor and ignorant, the
main had kept her. from thinking OF
anything else.
One morning a few days before her
mother was to be sent home Mary Eta
with her beloved Rosa clasped In her
arms walked down the street to the
pawnbroker's shop.
There were tears in her eyes and her
lips quivered as she stood on tiptoe 10

pawnbroker was telling him was a big

Mary Eta had pulled Rosa from the

the kiss that made the young man
look down at the little girl beside him.
What you doing in here. little one ?''

planned the pawnbroker, "and they sold

This was too much for Mary Eta

said. pointing to the scarfpfn the pawn
broker held in his hand.
The young man carried Mary Eta in
his arms all the way to the house where
she had lived before the landlord had
sold the furniture, and learned the
whole story from the woman with
whom Mary Eta stayed nights.
Did Mary Eta lose her doll? Not a
bit Of 1t. The young man had a home
and needed a housekeeper. so Mary Ell
ta's mother was brought to his house
from the hospital in an automobile. and
a fairy could not have made Mary Eta
happier than she was when she proudly
showed her mother her new home.
Mary Eta was taken to a store be-
fore she went for ner mother and fitted
out with new clothes more than she
had ever owned in all her life put to-
gether, and when the young man want
ed to buy her a new doll she told him

hat for Rosa thar 4 new doll.
That is the kind of a girl like" said
the young man. Stick to Rosa, even
ii she Is old and battered. Besides

piled the Young man. We are brother

And that was the way Mary Eta
found her brother and a good home as

TRACING CHECKS
PAID TO WATSON
Drawn To Ex-Congressman By N. A. NJ,
But Emery Says N. A. M. Did
Not Employ Him.

Washington, Aug. 9.--James A. Emery
continued yesterday as witness before
the Senate lobby committee about the
legislative activities of the National As
ISOLATION Of Manufacturers and the Ma
tional Council for Industrial Defense.
Emery testified that James W. Van
Cleave, a leader in the N. A. NJ, had
a large part in the steps that led to
the organization of the National Tariff
Commission association which, however,
had no connection with the N. A. M. or
the Industrial council.
The Tariff Commission association, he
said, employed former Representative
James +. Weston of Indiana, and not
the N. A. NJ or the Industrial council.
Two $500 checks to Watson drawn
by the manufacturers had previously
been put in evidence. Senator Walsh
expressed surprise at the apparent con-
tradiction. Emery said ne had been
told that the checks were accounted for
by bookkeeping expedient, the Ma
tional Association Of Manufacturers, a
contributor to the Tariff association,

Senator Reed developed that a ma ior-
ity of the members of the executive COM
mittee of the Tariff Commission asso-
citation were also members of a tariff
committee OF the National Association

marking the pathway to peace. The

corps here for the other governments of

has not been officially disclosed, but adj

the force of public opinion throughout

BANKS CAN GET
500, 900
Treasury Department Ready To Double
the Amount Proposed To Move
Crops, II Is Announced.

Washington, Aug. AT conference
yesterday between bankers Of the cen
trail West regarding the distribution of
deposits to assist in moving the crops,
Assistant Secretary John SHELTON Will
liams declared the treasury was pre-
pared to deposit Sl00,000,000 IL neces-
sary.
The original plan called for $50,000,-
600. The exact amount of the govern
ment deposits viii be determined after
the views of the bankers have been an
alyzed.
Bankers of Chicago and Indianapolis,
it was said were not prepared to say
whether the deposits would be needed
BY them, but they would be glad to re-
ceiye portion of the funds.
Generally. the governments PROPOSE
ton to put out the money was well
coined. Denver requested S20,000,000.
Mr.. Williams informed the bankers
that on deposits to be secured by state
and other bonds, exclusive of govern
ment bonds and by commercial paper,
the treasury department probably would
insist upon an additional security of 10
per cent III 0Hittu nbdbch UuHos.
With a tentative decision reached to
place S25 100000 in the South to assist
in moving and marketing cotton and 9th
er crops, the principal question discussed
Yesterday was the division of the re-
mainder between the middle and far
West. The bankers generally. it was
stated, were enthusiastic over the pros
pect of government assistance.
Secretary MeAdoo made it clear to
the bankers yesterday that while he felt
impelled to deposit the money in the
large centers in the agricultural belts,
he would insist that the big banks re-
eeiving the funds should pass them along
to the smaller or country banks at rea
sonable rates of interest. The treasury
department is powerless to name the
rate of interest, but the condition of
will be imposed.

IMPEACHMENT
FOR SULZER
Sufficient Testimony Taken
to Justify 1t, Says
Frawley
STOCK FIRMS
DAMAGING EVIDENCE
Threatened to Sell Out Sui
ger Last June for Amount
Due on Account

New York, Aug 9.I1oyernor William
Sulzer of New York was nearly $4,000
in debt as a result of stock market spec
ulations at the time of his nominat ton
and used contributions to his campaign
fund to make additional purchases of
stock while this debt was hanging over
him, according to testimony adduced yes
terday at the hearing of the Frawley
committee of the legislature.
This evidence is sufficient, according to
Senator Frawley, to warrant impeach-
ment proceedings against the governor
for violation of the corrupt practices
act and the committee closed its hear
ings yesterday to consider what action
should be taken.
1t is understood there is marked diff
ference of opinion among the members
as to the course to be pursued should
the evidence, in their opinion, indicate
that the governor has violated the so
called corrupt practices act in not Civ
ing correct statement of campaign
contributions. Some members, it was
said yesterday, favored impeachment
proceedings by the Legislature; others
recommended merely submitting the case
to a grand jury.
The first witness was Lyman A.
Spaulding, a lawyer. He testified that
he contributed 800 to the governors
campaign fund and produced the check
therefor endorsed william Sulzer" The
back of the check bore words pay to the
order of the Manhattan Co., Boyer, Girls,
void & Co."
Spaulding said he had given the check
to Judge Lewis J. Conlon, who had
turned it over to Governor Sulzer.
Another alleged Sulzer check for 81
600 deposited in the Manhattan Co. by
Boyer, Griswold & Co., according to the
endorsement on the back, was produced
by William Mederck, clerk for Theodore
w. Myers, banker The check was
made out by Myers and endorsed with
Suffers name.
These two checks together with the
Lynn check testified to Thursday made
a total of 81 800 in checks that had
been deposited.
