known before that in such places as

about if their daughters even talk of.
So last night, the investigators of
the commission went out with a
bunch of forthwith subpoenas and
came back with bunch of restau-
rant managers, entertainers, and
guests of the various places.
The investigators were not at all
particular. They brought in Jack
Carvan, manager of Roy Jones resort
at Twenty-first and Wabash, one of
the most notorious in the city, and
they collected Abe Frank, manager of
Rector's and the North American.

pleasure-half sick and feeling just as bad

Now, find nine times in ten that such
people have been careless about eating, and
haven't kept their bowels in good order.
People don't always know il, but really
most sickness comes from Feglsd of stomach
and bowels. This fact have learned in a
long and laborious practice. l urge you,

CRANE WILL CASE CONTESTED.
Agreement Reached by Heirs of the SIo,
100000 Estate in Chicago.

Chicago, Feb. ga legal battle over
disposition of the Sl0,000000 estate of
the late Richard T. Crane has been
averted, according to announcement by
Richard t. Crane, jr. yesterday. In
disposing of this estate, the late iron
master took cognizance OF gifts made
in his lifetime to his children. He
willed that his sons, Richard T., ir.,
and Charles r., should control equally
his principal business, and distributed
stock TO them accordingly After his
death it was discovered that one of
the sons had sold some of his stock.
This embarrassed the proposition OF
equal control indirectly affecting 9TH
err heirs, and it was only after many
that the heirs were kept
from throwing the matter into the
courts. Charles r. Crane was appointed
to China by President Taft,
but was recalled as he was about to
sail from San Francisco.

$36,600,923 LOST
IN LAST rs YEARS
Interest the Congressional Committee
Says Treasury Might Have
Saved

Washington, Feb. %. Interest
amounting to S36,6OO,923 has been lost
by the treasury in the last 20 years.
Handling by the treasury of the gem
eral surplus fund is Crude" unbusi-
ness-like, Improbable and discrimina-
tory.
"A working balance of S25,000,000 in
the treasury is sufficient.
THE government can increase its rev.
enues S2,000,000 year by offering in
terest on funds in government deposit
tories"
These are the findings of the House
committee on expenditures in the treas
ury department, the results of several
months OF investigation into the gov
ernment's fiscal operations.
Failure of the treasury department
to exact interest on the funds given
banks as special or general
federal repositories" is the principal
OF the committee.
This criticism was made by Rudolph
Spreekels the San Francisco banker, in

Innumerable efligies of cats are to be

the temples, on the lids of sarcophagi,
on coins, and on papyrus. In the sands

Washington, Feb. 22--In view of the
remarkable results achieved from tine
use of the typhoid vaccination in the
army, navy and civilian Institutions, the
war department is to urge and encour-
age the general use Of the vaccine in
all militia organizations. Records for
the calendar year just ended show that
there were only eighteen cases of ty-
phoid i'm the United States army, six
occurring among those immmized. The
militia division has sent a circular to
the adjutant generals of the various
states extolling the efficacy of the ty-
phoid prophylaete and suggesting that
the miltiamen be urged to submit 20
the vaccination voluntarily. In addition,
Surgeon General Torney also recon-
mended that whenever it may become
necessary to mobilize either the militia
or volunteer troops in the field, the
vaccination order be made compulsory.

Irving, years ago, was considered a

started in New York and had played
with Sidney Drew, Harry Carey, Joseph
Polk and more recently with Lincoln
j. Carter. Latterly he lost his power
to amuse an audience and he slipped
from one engagement to another, until
finally he was obliged to take to the

death. Dickerson left the stage years

THE WORDS WE SPELL.
Claim That Spelling Books Contain
Words Not Useful.

| "Everybody's interested in spelling
and there's always something new to be
| learned about it." said DIR. r. p Clax-
ton, United States commissioner of edu-
cation. when shown a report that pres
ent day spelling books were given rath-
er severe jolt by Leonard 2. Ayres,
of the Russell Sage foundation, on the
ground that they do not contain words
most useful for practical purposes.
DR.. Ayres has examined 1000 business
and personal letters and tabulated words
actually used in them He compares
the words he finds and those in the usual
school spelling lists with surprising re-
suits. Thus of the Ala words on the
National Education associations spelling
lists used in the Cleveland tests of 1908,
$50 never once appear in any of the
1000 letters, showing. according to DIR.
Ayres, chat useful spelling lists cannot
be compiled by sitting at the desk and
deciding which words people ought to
know how to SPELL
An astonishing poverty of vocabulary
was revealed by the investigation. Only
200l separate words were discovered in
the $4,000 tabulated, and 75l of these
appeared but once. In fact, 43 words
occurred so frequently as TO make up
half the total number, and 542 common
words constituted seven-eighths of the
aggregate.
How limited this number is says
DIR. Ayres. becomes apparent when it
is considered that the ordinary desk die
contains from 10000 to $4,000
separate words. while small pocket die
fiona rios contain from o5 OOO IN 40 OO0 - /
He points out that the average Amer
lean does not even begin to make use !
Of the words he learns in the elementary |
grades in school, for the elementary !
school spelling books contain from 10000 |
10 $4,000 separate words. The explana
ton is. he thinks, that the pupils tenn
master for spelling purposes
thousands of words which they proceed
10 forget as soon as they pass out of
he elementary grades; and he suggests
IN extended investigation TO determine
ust what words are most needed for
ordinary use. to the end that really 4
list may be taught so thor
,ughly as never to be forgotten. Such
/ list. he thinks. would then furnish
sound basis for increase in vocabulary.
The correspondence examined by DIR.
Ayres was of various kinds, including
etters to a mail-order house; letters
eceived by a physician; letters to the
uery department of a city newspaper;
ptters received by a lawyer; letters TO
eachers from parents of pupils; miscel- !
lneous letters to publishing house;
