BOYS HAVE NO
USE FOR SUFFRAGETTES
BY SAM n. KENNEDY

Militant suffragism will have real diff
fieulty in securing a foothold in this
eauntry if all tn American boys adopt the
tactics enforced by the youngsters OF
Ensley
The young fellows who frequent Ensley
Park and the wading pool there have
organized a union, and one Of the most
stringent bylaws of the organization is
that no girl be allowed to wade in the
pool The girls have tried time AMI again
to assert their right to frolic in the cool
ing waters of the pool. but each time the
attacks have been repulsed by the organ

This same crowd of lads play baseball
at the rark and according to statements
ruly sworn and subscribed TO by j.
Charles deLasse some marvellous rules and
regulations obtain in the decisions of the
umpire and the practices of the players.
Mr. deLacee thue describes one of the
affairs:
The boys decided to have a match
game between picked teams among their
number one afternoon last week The
number Of PLAYERS available was not suf-
fieient to make two full teams and it was
arranged that the umpire should pitch
for both sides. while the single catcher
amcng the bunch did the receiving for
both teams. This arrangement resulted
In keeping the umpire in hot water all the
time. Every ball the pitcher delivered
was called strike by the umpire which
demonstrated his willingness to be impair
tial In the matter of ruling on his own
pitching, but each batter invariably took
issue on this view of the pitching umpire
After several incipient riots had been
quelled by the strong arm and superior
lung capacity of his jumps, most of the
decisions stood unchallenged beyond the
usual seathing sarcasm which every boy
deems fitting and appropriate on such
occasions one particular ruling which

This decision almost precipitated a free

which is the proper finish for all such
contests among the future Matthewsons,

Courthouse for New York

From Popular Mechanics.
A courthouse that resembles in many
ways the Coliseum of Rome is to be built
in the heart of New York city. The de-
signs of Guy lowell accepted by the
courthouse commission. provides for a
circular structure, 400 feet in diameter
and 275 feet high, covering a ground area
of about 125,000 square feet, which is to be
built at the intersection of Worth and
Center streets. The estimated cost is s10,-
100000 in addition to the cost of the
$6000,O00 site. The building is designed as
the principal one of group forming a
civic center, future buildings to be rect
angular in shape and a classic design.
and it is believed that the question of
grouping, rather than economy in the use
of ma terial determined the circular form.

Ap- parently the most pressing require ments of the short interest had been satisfied and the demand fell off with resultant weakening in market values. particularly among leading stocks such as Reading, Union Pacific, Steel, Amal- gamated and Hill shares Specialties fared better. Although breaking of peace negotiations had been definitely forecast. the news had no pronounced influence on speculative sentiment and bear traders utilized this development with some success.

ARIZONA CASE
 |S SUBMITTED
Three-Cent Fare Law Ar gued Before Circuit Court of Appeals in San Fran cisco and Taken Under AdViSement

From telegrams received in this city yesterday il was learned that the United States court Ot appeals at San Francisco sitting en banque had heard the argument of Attorney Bull lard upon the injunction suit of the railroads doing business throughout line state against the state of Ari- zona asking relief from the opera tIons ot the recently enacted three cent fare blll. and had taken the ease under advisement awaiting the action of the supreme court of Ari- zona upon other matters regarding the constitutionahty of the statute.
 The state questions are pressed for attention in connection with the Wood Allen case testing the constitutiOnal ty of the Chase game and fish law in which it is urged that due publicity was not given to the measure upon teing referred and that 1t was not presented to the people at a general regular election. Since the three cent fare bill was referred at the same election and under the same condi- lions as the game law. the same ob- j-ction exists. Should the supreme
 
 points are not worthy of considera- ton in connection with what was really done to carry out the intent uf the law, then the court of ap- peals at san Francisco will be in a position to hand down their judgment with regard to the injunction suit now pending.
 A interesting point brought out in the argument on behalf of the state was that the corporation commission had in order l9. made known its in tentiOn of granting relief to all rail- roads who should take advantage of the provisions of the three cent fare bill and file with the commission the required statements regarding the ma . ture and effect of the operations Ol the law on their business. A further poirt was argued in the form of a demurrer that the railroads had ade- quate remedy at law in the courts pf the state for fighting of their grievances and that an injunction suit was not the proper proceeding.

ABATEMENT OF NUISANCE.

Latterly cities have come to look to electricity to cure the great evil of soft coal burning locomotive smoke. New York City has eliminated the locomotive from all passenger trains entering that city. and Philadelphia has received assurances which justify the expectation that electricity will in due time be used at Broadstreet Station for local traffic at least. The smokeless locomotive for freight and passenger service alike is more prom ising for the general abolition of the railway smoky nuisance. If Pittsburg receives such a blessing, the growing murkiness of Philadelphia atmosphere must also give place again to the limpid clarity that formerly char acterized it.
 West Philadelphia particularly will have occasion to rejoice when the black smoke emitting locomotives dis appear from that section. With the steady annual increase in the enormous business of the PennsyI- vania railroad, its locomotives ihave multiplied correspondingly. and the smoke which they scatter for miles over city residences has for thirty years past made many sections of that part of the city less and less desirable to live in. Nevertheless, because of other advantages, popula- tion continues to gain there. the peo- pie living in hope that the smoke nuisance will in some way be over come.
 That hope has been long disa appoint- ed, but the statement laid before the
