.FR|EDMANN TO GO
BACK TO GERMANY
Declares Mission to America
Is Ended, and Is Expected to
Depart Next Week.

NEW YORK, May n.-Dr. Friedman
today said his mission was ended" and
that he would soon return to Berlin. II
was rumored that he was about to slip
out of town because Of the ban laid On
his remedy" by the board Of health.
This was vigorously denied by his
friends.
It is expected that DR.. Friedman will
sail for Europe next week. n soon a
he can wind up his business dealing,
with Moritz Eisner. his manager. The
doctor has said for the last two months
that he would leave this country just
as soon as he could, but not before his
mission, which he said was the proof
Of the value Of his vaccine, was ended.
MY mission in America Is finished
atmosphere has cleared and as soon a.
! feel that my duty has been done l
shall return to Germany. / hope the
time will come soon. 1t may be q mat
ter Of only a few weeks-perhaps much
less
The action Of the authorities here IL
Of course a delicate subject Matters
have to a large degree been taken out
Of my hands and my part from now on
Is forced to be a more or less impassive
one. DR.. Rambaud understands our
movement to bring the remedy before
the American people and what he says
leaves little to be added"
DR.. friedman would not say whether
or not he was going to return 20 his
Datients at Providence or In Canada.
He did say that his reception in Provi-
dence was warm indeed compared with
that here.

WORLD BEHIND The SCENES
Arlstocratic Line Of Demarcatlon
Among the Unseen People Who
Belong TO Things Theatrical.

To the outsider the term "stage
hands" is applied to everyone who
works behind the footlights except
the players; but there is quite an
aristocratic line Of demarcation.
There is the stage carpenter, who
builds scenery; there is the property
man and the assistant property man,
who make and shape all kinds Of
things out Of papier mache for prop
critics and look after the furniture
and decorations Of the stage; there
are the fymen, who manipulate the
ropes at the top Of the theater, hoist
ing and lowering machinery, and
also raising and dropping the cur
tain.
The natural habitat Of these fly
men is on platforms up in the flies,
many feet above the stage, and when
not otherwise employed they have
the disconcerting habit Of audibly
gossiping and playing cards. Then
there are the electrician and his as
sistants, whose business it is to OPP
crate the lights. The humblest Of
the regular staff is the "grip." This
man handles scenery and does gen.
eral utility work about the stage.
When exigency demands the force
is added to from the roustabouts who
usually infest the stage entrance,
eking out a miserable existence
through casual jobs and "sponging"
upon the members of the regular
staff.-The Strand.

GOVERNOR DIDN'T NEED BATH
Smart Hotel Clerks Order Was Re.
vlsed by stlngy Executive Of
Western State.

The. governor of western state, q
man of wealth but of pernicious hab-
its, walked into hotel in San Fran
cisco holding his head high and
with a swagger in his gait. The
chief clerk, who prided himself on
his extensive acquaintance and boast
ed that he never forgot face, hur-
ried to greet the distinguished Wis
itor.
"Ah, governor" he cried, delight
ed to welcome you to our little town. ["
Turning to the desk he shouted: ga
room with bath for the governor"
The governor leaned over and
whispered in the clerks ear. The
expression on the clerks face
changed to one of intense disappoint-
ment; he turned again to the man
at the desk and called louder than
before:
mo bath for the governor; the
governor doesn't need bath p

WOMEN ARE NOT BAsBLERs.

Women are great takers, but they
don't publish business secrets in then
small talk. In this respect they
seem to do little better than men.
"There can be no doubt that women
are far safer as clerks than men. I"
says Miss Florence, secretary of the
Women Clerks and Secretaries
Friendly society of London. "a
business secret is rarely if ever d.
vulged outside by a woman clerk.
Unlike the men, they do not, when
they leave the Office, indulge in long
conversations about their work. Men
babble to men far more than women
do to women" Miss Charlesworth.
chief superintendent Of the .local
government boards tyPists, in tcsti-
flying before the civil service COM
mission, likewise praised the LOYALTY
and efficiency of woman.-Leslie's.

SUN A MAGNET.

DR.. George Ellery Hale, director
of the Mount Wilson Solar obserya-
tory, in a lecture recently announced
that observations made on Mount
Wilson during the last year proved
the sun to be a magnet.
Its magnetic poles lie near the
poles of rotation and correspond in
direction with the magnetic poles of
the earth. The rotation of the sun
on its axis will account for its mag
netism, on the theory that the sun
contains nearly equal charges of posi-
tive and negative electricity, the
negative charge being predominant.
The 'magnetism Of the sun has no
appreciable effect on the earth.

AVOID TOO MUCH REASONING
Those Who Would Argue Well Must
Not Get TOO Far From
Tangible Fact.

DR.. Henry Bergson deplores the
tendency Of philosophical thinkers to
let their reasoning powers run away
with them. That tendency is not
confined to philosophers. It is the
habit Of all people, whatever their
capacity, to give wide range to their
reason and let go the primary facts
OF ideals with which they started out.
He thinks it is absurd for a person
to push his reasoning far from the
tangible fact, for in that fact may be
more truth than in all their logic.
This opinion should tend to in
spire those people who are very YER
bose in argument with more modesty
than they seem to possess. Our rea-
soning is really the weakest Of our
powers. 1t is so full Of half-glance,
prejudice, vanities and personal
sympathies, as to make our conclu-
sions thoroughly unreliable. The
true rule of argument is to state the
fact and the principle which it illus
trates, and cling to them as the best
assurance that one can have for his
contention. There is nothing that
has proved such a jungle in human
experience as unguarded and unre-
stricted reasoning. The idea or doc
trine that is true appears easily
without a tortuous course of logic to
reveal it.-Ohio State Journal.

FLOWING AT NIGHT.

New South Wales, the most popu-
lous province of the Australian com
monwealth, is hot country during
much OF the year, and field labor Is
often burdensome to man and beast
alike when the sun is high. Now it
is becoming quite common for the
managers Of large farms where trac-
ton engines are used, to do much
plowing at night. Powerful acety-
lene gas headlights are attached to
the engine which draws the plows.
and plenty Of light is obtained in
this manner for all such work The
same thing is done, quite frequently,
in California.

VERY POOR TIME TO LAUGH
Dock Foremen, Not Appropriately
Clad for Ocean Voyage, Would
Have Enjoyed Venting Rage.

Years ago, just after 'Fingy" Con-
nors had first cinched success, he de-
cided to go abroad. He called the
foremen of his nine Buffalo docks to
New York, clothed them amid w;.d
outcries in conventional evening
clothes, and began to pour wine for
them at the Waldorf. Nothing more
humorous-or more pathetic-has
ever been seen than these nine two
listed man-eaters, their thick muscles
bullying through the thin, black
cloth, their enormous hands super
heated in the white gloves "Fingy"
insisted upon their wearing, sitting
in the dining-room at the Waldorf,
and religiously trying to blow the
foam off each beaker of wine. Their
necks were like the stems of redwood
trees, and their embarrassed and un-
happy eyes glanced piteously around
a decorously staring room. "Fingy"
was in his element. He loaded his
nine dock tigers in taxicabs and took
them to the pier to prolong the fare
well. And in the violence of leave
taking they forgot to take leave. So
that the ship sailed with them. And
"Fingy," outraged by the fares he
had to pay, refused to buy other
clothes for them. So the nine,
clad in evening clothes, Tuning with
rage, stalked the decks during the
round trip, waiting-hoping-that
some one would smile.
