VISITS BIG PRINTING OFFICE
Mrs. Woodrow Wilson oets Waterman
Into Trouble BY Unexpeeted Call
at Print shop.

Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, vito OF
President Wilson, has been doing .
good deal Of slumming In Washington
ever since She has been here. She
has visited al OF the wretched alleys.
Gus; all the tumbled-down buildings.
and We have quite q lot Of those. and
shs In now making the rounds Of the
departments to see wherein the con-
ditions OF the clerks can be bettered.
The other day she wandered up to
the government printing ONCE with
Bono friends to make a personal in
spection Of the conditions under which
women are working in that bidding.
Mrs. Wilson always requests that it
be not made known who she Is, and
furthermore she insists upon Visiting
these places Unexpectedly, 30 that
there can be no sweeping and busting
beforehand.
At the government printing office
abe was received by Henry q. Terry,
one Of tho watchmen, and TO him she
gave he- orders not to let her identity
be known, then asked him to accom-
Wilson declined to let Public Printer
Ford know that she was there, and
SO the poor Waterman could do moth
ing but tremble in his shoes and
tramp around over the great building
with the first Lady Of the land" who
was appearing incognito. Mr.. Terry
was nearly scared to death, and as
soon az she was out Of the office
and she got out without anybody find
ing out she had been there-Terry
reported to Public Printer Ford that
the presidents wife had been there.
Very naturally he was enraged that
the wife of the president of the
United States should have been re-
ceived In the government printing
once just as anybody else was re-
ceived who wandered in on the
streets. Public Printer Ford did not
believe that this comported with the
dignity of the department or himself,
and an Waterman Terry had com
mitted a grave breach OF the rules
Ford Immediately dismissed him.
OF course Waterman Terry was
somewhat up in the air. He wanted
to be entirely loyal to the government
printer, and yet he had a dim notion
that the wife of the president OF the
United States ranked everybody, and
between the two he was about to lose
out, when he had the forethought of
appealing to Senator Lane of Oregon.
Senator Lane Immediately visited the
White House, told what had happened
and implored Mrs. Wilson to use her
best efforts to have Waterman Terry
reinstated. This Mrs. Wilson proceed
ed to do, and Terry Is again on the
Job, q wiser II not sadder man. 1t will
take more than the wife of the presi-
dent of the United States to make
Terry break another rule of the gov
eminent printing Office. The Wilson's
are not ct all ostentatious, and In
their efforts to be just common people
are continually getting somebody into
trouble.

TRIBUTE TO MINERS

From the increasing number of
reports being received by the Unit
ed States bureau Of mines. of min
ers rescued from death in accident,
it is becoming apparent to the offic-
ials that the general Safety First"
movement, inaugurated by the bur-
eau. has already reached a stage of
great effectiveness. Hundreds of
mines throughout the country,
through the precept and urging of
the bureau, have established res
cue and first-aid crews and it is
from these crews Of volunteer
heroes that the bureau is almost
weekly hearing Of lives saved.
Most of the accidents involve but
a few men and are not chronlcled
in the newspapers, yet in every in
stance the reports breathe of the
rarest sort of heroism upon the
parts of the rescue crews.
'Since the bureau of mines was
created" says DR.. Joseph A.
Holmes, director of the bureau
Of mines, "our rescue men have
trained 5000 miners in the use of
modern rescue apparatus and 1000
miners in the principles of first
aid to-the-injured. These constitute
an army greater than many legions
that won their triumphs upon the
field Of battle. for these men do
not destroy life, they save life.
They are the soldiers of humanity
the minute men of peace, as eager
, end. as ready to respond to the cry
OF distress as were the minute men
at Lexington, and as brave.
"a. "All through the year these men
have been answering the emergency
call of the mines, in many instances
rushing into the very jaws of death,
in the faint hope of bringing back
a father to his family or q young
: man to his mother. Many lives
have been saved and a NUMBER Of
reBcuers have had their names
added to the long roll of martyrs.
The saddest incident of the year
was when two young men gave
up their lives at the Dawson, New
Mexico, disaster, some time ago,
while endeavoring to rescue the
entombed men. Their sacrifice
was purely voluntary matter, like
the acts Of any other rescuer.
They died like the courageous men
they were and there were other
rescuers, equally as courageous
ready and waiting to take their
places in the ranks.
1.-THE bravery Of the miners has
never been questioned. There has
never been a time when more vol
rnteers than needed did not re.
spond. There has always been a
rescuer to step into the vacant
place In the ranks. And when the
rescuer goes to his death, he is not
spurred on by the martial music,
the roll nj drums. the crack of rife
fire. like the soldier of war. There
are no volleys of cheers to nerve
him to the ordeal. His is the grim,
silent, desperate task in the dark
ness Of the bowels of the earth.
His incentive is the consciousness
that he is performing the highest
duty that is possible for a fellow.
man. And unlike the battlefield,
the world thrills for days over the
herOism ands the sacrifice of the
hero and then forgets him. There
are no battle anniversaries to quick
ga the memory of the world at his
feats, no camp-fiIes of the veteran
survivors, to live anew the vnlor

BOY WAS IN A
PER|LOuS POSITION

w. B. Hurff, Jr., had one of his
delivery wagons and horses standing
in front of Blew & Blew's drug store
this morning. The team was in charge
of a younger brother of Mr.. Hurff
Another young fellow attempted to
jump upon the front of the wagon to
seize high school pennant. This
frightened the horse and it made
wild dash on Commerce street and
over the bridge. The young fellow
slipped from the platform of the wagon,
but managed to catch hold of the
shafts, and was thus carried along in
a most perilous position, the by-stand-
ers fearful the horse would pound out
his brains. The frightened animal was
pulled up at Atlantic street. No one
was hurt.

SESSION WAS
INTERESTING
The Presbytery Met Here
Yesterday.
THE JUNE MEETING
Various Matters Were Transacted
by West Jersey Presbytery
Yesterday.

The June meeting of the West Jer-
sey Presbytery reconvened yesterday
afternoon at o'clock. The forepart
of the session was taken up with much
discussion on the support of Pres
byterian Emanuel Church among col
ored people in Atlantic City. The Rev.
Mr.. Clark, colored, minister in charge
of the work in that city, gave a re-
port of the work there. The Presby-
terry was quite enthused over the mat
ter and resolution was finally passed
instructing DR.. Caldwell, of Atlantic
City, one of the committee having an
oversight of this work to solicit con-
tributions from the Presbytery and
the Synod for the support of that
church.
1t was resolved that the Rev. Geo.
A. Becker should be installed as pas
tor of the Woodbury. Heights Presby-
terian Church on June 27, at p. m.
Hereafter the sessions of Presby-
terry will be two-day sessTons-the To-
cal church, under rule 80, being ex-
pected to pay the expenses of their
pastor and elder in attending Pres
bytery.
DR.. McCloud being about to
leave the Presbytery, it was ordered
that Presbytery rise in prayer and
BLESSED be the tie that binds" be
sung, which was done Rev McCloud
will retire and go to Pittsburg.
A young man by the name of A. R.
Rostan, of the Second Presbyterian
Church of Camden, who has been do
ing evangelistic work, was examined
for license to preach. The examina-
ton being on the ordinances of Bap-
tism and the Lords Supper. An ex-
animation on church polity followed
this.
There was a long discussion, con-
suming over an hour on the matter of
entertaining Presbytery at the two
days sessions which are hereafter to
be held. The question hinged upon
whether the Presbytery should carry
the expenses of the delegates or
whether the individual churches should
pay the expenses of their minister and
elder, because Rule 80 says ''the
church ought to pay the expenses of
its minister and elder" 1t was finally
left that the Presbytery should look
out for the expenses of the session.

REAL ESTATE DEAL
is CONSUMMATED
Max Goldberg Purchases Two
Buildings.
A DEAL OF S30,000.0O
A Well Known Business Man BUYS
the East Commerce St. Build.
ing he Now Occnpies.

Yesterday a real estate deal was
consummated when Max Goldberg, the
shoe, notion and furniture dealer, pur-
chased from the estate of the late
David P. Elmer, the store property on
the north side of East Comerce street,
The transaction is one of the most
important that has been made within
the past year, and it is understood the
consideration is something over
$30,Ooe.
The purchase was made by Mr.. Gold
berg from Colonel and Mrs. H. X.
Bailey and Howard Elmer.
The property included in the trans
fer is the two story brick building at
Cohansey and Commerce streets,
which includes the two large stores
occupied by Mr.. Goldberg in his bust
ness of notions, shoes and furniture,
and also the two story brick building
which includes the stores occupied by
Samuel Gallner, the dry goods dealer.
The depth of the real estate carries
back to the property of the Crystal Ice
and Cold Storage Company.
Mr.. Goldberg has purchased the
property with view of providing for
the future, and the development will
probably result in big department
store there.
