WOMAN RULES INDIAN STATE
Began of Bhopal Has Governed Coun-
try Wisely and Well for Eleven
Years.

There have been few opportuni-
ties to know something of that inter
esting and unusual woman, the Began
of Bhopal, who has for the last eleven
years been ruler Of her country, the
small state of Bhopal, in the middle
of Central India.
The Began was born in 1858, and
the free. independent spirit OF her
family is shown by the fact that
though a girl her advent was not I'M
welcome.
When she was seven years old ar
engagements we're made for her mar
riage, and the boy selected for her
husband was brought to the court and
shared her studies When the Began
was fifteen they were married, and
strangely enough, the marriage was
happy one The Began found in her
husband a faithful friend. and 1t is
said that she mourned his death very
deeply.
In 1888 the Begams eldest daugh-
ter died She would have been her
heir the first born, irrespective OF
sex. being in Bhopal the heir APP
parent
In 1901 she became ruler owing to
the death Of her mother and at once
set about Improvements and reforms
in all the various state departments.
One of the Begam's chief interests
was education. particularly, too. the
education of girls She decided, there
fore. to open and patronize person
ally a girls school. The education OF
girls in Bhopal was chiefly limited to
study OF the Koran and the rudi-
ments OF the Urdu language. with
here and there some slight knowledge
Of writing learned from fathers and
brothers But their attendance at
schools and their advancement in gen
eral knowledge was looked upon as a
dangerous innovation.

Made a Million Raising Foxes.

(F'rOm The American Magazine)
The Hon Charles Dalton. of Prince
Edward Island, who heard that rare
silver black fox skins brought ire
mendous prices in the London market
and who thereupon set out to breed
them, is now immensely rich and
Prince Edward is covered with fox
ranches. Following is the story of his
success:
Charles Dalton had lived for forty
years commonplace, monotonous
sort of the life on the farm. He had
been a successful agriculturist, judged
by the standards of his neighbors
Well-educated, as are all the Island
farmers, he was man who read a
good deal and was conversant with
what was transpiring in the outside
world He knew the markets range,
studied the fluctuations of the prices
and could tell you the current quota
tons on grain and produce in the lead
ing markets of the world. Incidently
among other items of knowledge that
found Judgment in his brain was the
fact that silver black fox skins were
becoming extremely scarce and the
price was soaring for them.
"One day Dalton heard from friend
that litter of foxes had been found
by a sportsman in the neighborhood,
among which were a couple Of fine
specimens of the silver variety. In il
self this was most uncommon oc-
currence and worthy of comment, but,

though the whole district was interest
ed, Dalton was the only one to whom
the information came as an inspiration.
That day the Dalton idea that spelled
immense riches was born.
To secure the litter, hide it away
carefully in the woods near his home
and to build small enclosure which
would hold the little animals in cap
tiyity was an easy task. And then
began the days of earnest study of the
habits and needs of the prisoners and
of experiments in diet. He imported
other foxes and by degrees learned
how to breed the animals. Constantly
aiming to secure a blacker and blacker
strain his efforts were finally crowned
with success. He obtained pure black
specimens.
Then came the year, not so long
ago now, when the fox fancier express
ed a parcel to London. 1t contained
the pelts of several foxes which he had
killed and his object was to test the
fur market and see if those fairy tales
he had been reading about the value of
fox skins had anly element of truth in
them.
"Auctioed in the London fur market,
the Dalton skins brought several hun
dred pounds apiece. Not for long
time had such fine skins been offered
They were seized with ayidity and the
fox breeder was informed that there
would be no difficulty in dispOsing Of
and pelts that he would offer. The idea
had in truth proved to be a golden one.
"Ye by year Charles Dalton ship
ped his skins to England and year by
year they brought the top prices at the
auctions. Money flowed to him from
over the sea, thousands of pounds Of It
every winter, until he suddenly found
himself rich Such an astonishing turh
e fortune had ever been known on tn
Island 1t was almost magical in its
suddenness."

! to prohibit in the exalted name OF dig
nifty, a professional man, doctor II
dentist. from placing himself in a po-
sition where his light may shine before
men
Years ago a departure from the
ironclad ethical inhibition against ad-
yertising was even publicly construed
as an act of apostasy on the part Of a
doctor or a dentist. Now, howeye",
the public mind is changed, and tn s
act by a dentist or a physician is view
ed from an altogether different view
point.
That this is indubitably true is at
tested by the fact that those who ad-
vertise are literally patronized. Con-
soquently, the schism in the ranks Of
the doctors and dentists with regard to
this question is rapidly widening, and
it can only be matter of time before
their rule of ethics will be modified 50
as to permit, if not to enlarge, adver-
Using.
The so-called restriction with when
the professional men fetter themselves
ir the survivor of an -conserva-
tive age. In this time Of extreme per-
sonaI freedom, and in an era of adver-
Using and publicity, it has no place.
Because it is the custom it does no;
stand that it is a good practice.
1t was the practice for kings and
parliaments to impose upon burd-
ened people until Cromwell thought
otherwise 1t was the custom for one
church to absolutely dominate until
Martin Luther inaugurated the Refor-
nation. 1t was the ruling spirit in
France to ignore the people until tn
Revolution demonstrated a different
idea. There was no such thing as lib
erty of, by and for the people until the
Americans of 1916 upset precedent and
overthrow English rule.
A hundred years ago the mere sug-
gestion that churches should advertise
would have been deemed irreligious
and sinful. In some cities today
churches are among the most promil-
ent advertisers.
1t is not so requisite that a lawyer
should advertise, for he has the public
forum in which to get acquainted with
the public.
But the dentist and the doctor arr
obliged if they belong to the associa-
ton, to cloak themselves with a man
tie of secrecy and self-eliminatior
Surely the enlightened and progressive
practitioner of today will not submit tC

WHAT WILL SUMTER Do!


The time has arrived when it is in.
peratiye for Sumter county to do it,
rull duty in supporting the work that
has meant so much toward the devel-
iopment of the county as regards the
stimulating of young farmers to raise
corn. 1t appears that this work has
been done in Sumter county by the
United States Government alone, with
the exception of the prizes offered, the
entire salary of the government de-
Imonstration agent for the county be-
ing paid by the federal government.
This does not seem to be a very
Icommendable thing for Sumter coun-
ty, as most of the other counties f
the state which have received this
aid from the federal government ha e
also raised sums to supplement this
amount 1t is only right that Sumter
county should do so, as this county
has received invaluable aid from the
federal government in the stimulation
Of interest in the matter Of corn clubs
and other farm demonstration work.
In fact, it is understood that the
county is likely to lose all that is nov
being donated by the federal govern
ment for these purposes, unless the
sum given by the United States 5
supplemented by suitable amount
from the county. 1t is understood, al
so, that no smaller amount than $500
will serve to place Sumter county on
an equal footing with the other lead
ing counties of the state which have
profited similarly from the aid receiv-
ed from the federal government.
Under existing conditions the lack
of funds handicaps the farm demon-
stration work in this county so that
the agent for the United States gov
eminent is able to give only one-haf
of his time to the work of directing the
corn clubs and of other vital farm
demonstration work. This means that
the ambitious young farmers of the
county who are taking part in corn
contests and in other farm demon
stration work are often denied the
aid and supervision of an expert in.

BRUTAL JAP Is
GIVEN LESSON!
Mikaml Numerically Beat
His FraiI Wife Who Was
Afraid to Complain
PAID A FINE OF $50

Because his wife favored her
sisters marriage as it was proposed,
MoJoro Mtkamt, Japanese reStaur-
ant proprietor of 219 Smith street,
attacked her and kicked her most
brutally. causing one of the worst
wife-beating cases that has ever been
brought to the attention of the local
authorities. According to the declar-
ations of the woman, Recorder H. e.
Pfckersgill and Patrolman Murray
he kicked her until her legs became
mass of black and blue bruises
from her hips to her ankles. Mikami
was fined $50 this morning when ar
raigned before Recorder Pickersgill
and given lecture about American
law which he probably will not soon
forget.
Mikami, who conducts the New
York restaurant at 219 Smith street,
admitted that he had brutally beaten
and kicked his wife, a small and frail
woman of Hungarian descent. She
testified and he admitted that he had
often become enraged and beaten her
because she favored the matrimonial
match which her sister had made.
Her argument was that her sister
should be allowed to marry whom
she pleased. He did not favor her
choice. The ill-treatment had been
going on for months and the little
woman bore 1t bravely without COM
plant to the authorities. Neighbors
declare they often witnessed the fog
gings. 1t was through one of these
that Mikami's arrest resulted yester-
day.
The climax was capped when
Mikami was seen and heard to have
beaten the woman numerically a
few days ago. 1t is declared he
dubbed and kicked her so that she
could not walk. She screamed 50 as
to attract neighbors. Yesterday af-
ternoon Recorder Pickersgill and
Patrolman Murray went to investi-
gate. They inquired about the
whereabouts of the woman and the
Jap said she was upstairs. The re-
corder asked to see her and Mikami
led them upstairs. He pretended
that he did not know what room she
was in. Finally she was found in
bed in a dark room. She hesitated
in preferring charges against her
husband, but finally consented and
he admitted that he had beaten her
The officials were Mortified at wit
Messing her injuries. His arrest fol
lowed, sign was placed on the res
taurant door and it was locked.
Leo Goldberger was employed as
counsel. He procured a bondsman
and secured the prisoners release at
7 O'Clock last night on bond OF
$500 for hearing this morning, and
promise that he would not, under
any circumstances, return to bother
the woman during the night. She
desires to become separated from
him, declaring life with him to be
unbearable.

BRYAN DENIES ULT|MATUM HAS
BEEN SENT TO PRESIDENT HUERTA
NEW INSPECTION
OF LABOR CAMP

Reinspection made of sanitary
conditions in the labor camp at Port
Reading indicates that they are ex-
ceedingly unheaithfui in practically
every particular. The fact that the
subject has again been taken up di-
reetly by the State Board of Health
and that detail inspection, consum-
Ing several hours, was made the lat
ter part of the week, shows further
victory for Rev. Columbino Galassi,
the fighting priest, who is personal
ly waging the campaign against the
alleged padrone leaders and their
accomplices, declared to be employees
of the Philadelphia & Reading Rail-
road Company.
The inspection party was composed
OF Inspector Bowe, of the State
Board of Health; Inspector Harmed,
of the Woodbridge Board of Health,
and Rev. Galassi. While the former
made but few oral comments on the
conditions which were found, he
lead the priest to understand that
conditions were highly unsanitary In
and about the shacks in which the
padrone subjects live and that the
cistern water they used was un-
