Commence This Fall.

The plan of securing work for girl
students in Moscow homes will be
commenced this fall and it is desired
by the committee of the faculty wom-
en- who were appointed to initiate
the movement that all ladies of the
city who desire the services OF stu
dents, either for a few hours per DAY
or regularly, make application as early
as possible to Mrs. Carlyle in order
that as much work as possible can be
scheduled before the opening of the
fall term.
AS a means of establishing definite
wage scale and of defining the various
kinds of work which may be secured
by the students the committee, formed
of Mrs. Emma f. Little, Mrs. Sylvia
s. Collens and Miss Permeal French
have prepared the following regula-
tiOnS:

Will Receive Calls.

This girl, under whose direction
the bureau would be conducted, would
receive all calls from anyone desiring
to employ students and would place
the parties in communication with
the students. Though this employment
bureau would be under the direction
of a student it would be superintend-
ed by a committee of faculty women.
1t is the belief of the faculty women
that there would be much work
around town which girls could Sc
cure if it were known on just what
terms the work could be had and just
what would be expected OF the girls
securing it.

SOLUTION REACHED FOR PROYID-

Plan Provides for Securing Employ
ment in Homes of Moscow for
Deserving Young Ladies.

| The first work of substantial char
acter to be undertaken by the Faculty
Women's club, an organization formed
last spring at the instigation of Miss
Permeal French, dean of women at
the university, is in the direction of
a solution of the question of providing
employment for women students who
desire to earn a portion of their ex-
penses while in college.
If the movement which is to be
started this year proves sufficiently
popular further action will be taken
toward the establishment of an en-
ployment bureau through which eve
~ girl in the university who so de-
sires may be able to secure employ
ment. This bureau would be under
the direction of some girl student who
would keep a close record OF the
names of all girls wishing work; of
the kind of work preferred by each
one, and of the days as well as OF
the hours on each day that the differ
ent girls would be free to respond to
calls.

MEXICAN MURDERER DEAD

Salt Lake City, Utah, Dec. a.
Rafael Lopez, Mexican murderer of
six men, is believed to be dead, over
come by the poisonous gases which
have been pumped into the Apex
mine for "a hours.
Deputies this morning heard no
sounds coming from the interior of
the mine, where Lopez had barracad-
ed himself. Throughout the night
volumes of smoke and gas poured
from the mine, indicating that the
fumes had penetrated every inch of
the workings, and were ballooning
back.
Sulphurous fumes are still being
forced into the mine. Deputies win
not enter to search for Lopez's body
before Thursday.

AND STILL THE TAXDODGING
QUESTION SLEEPS
Another session of the County
Board passed yesterday and still no
mention of the resolution aimed at
taxdodging, which Com. Peter Bart
zen presented several weeks ago, was
heard.
The resolution was passed and the
states attorney directed to proceed
with the investigation. Hoyne an
swered back by asking that sum of
money be appropriated with which to
carry on the investigation His re-
quest was referred to the finance
committee and has been there since
The finance committee is the most
important committee of the County
Board. Yesterday Mccormick almost
completely reorganized it and made
it entirely a body of his own.
Chairman Ellsworth M. Board and
Com. Anderson and Mitchell are re-
form candidates. Of the other two
members of the committee, Mortar
ity, who was elected Democrat, has
voted with Mccormick since the lat
ter took Office and Nowak is rather
soft clay. !
Nearly all the so-called reform
politicians dance to the music of the
Municipal Voters League, an organi-
cation controlled by julius Rosen-
wald.
The Day Book showed last Satur-
day how Rosenwald tried to get away
by fling only $500, 900 personal prop

aimed at just such cases.

WONDERM ENT.

wonder why We often know a strong desire for sleeping, when to the synagogue we go to hear the pastors sweeping discussion of the vital themes? What is the strange incentive? Why do we snore and roam in dreams when we should be attentive? Insom- mia may rack our heads when we're remote from preaching; we toss and founder on our beds, for slumber vainly reaching: but in the quiet house of prayer we've mo such frantic battle; we sleep and dream and saw the air with cross-cut snOraS that rattle. l wonder why it always rains when we've planned excursions, as picnics in the woods or plains, or kindred mild diversions? l won der why my neighbours pup his noisy watch is keeping, when l am trying to make up some large arrears of sleeping? I wonder why the rooster crows so early in he morning, when people, reused from their repose, shout words of wrath and scOrning? l wonder as l walk abroad among the men who bore most, why things are all so whpperjawed and fierce and hindend foremost?

NEW YORK LIKES THE
 TALKING PICTURE

New York. After Thomas A. Edison had invented the mOtion picture and the talking machine he dreamed of talking pictures, and the next morning he went tO work again. For several years hints came from the Edison lab oratory that the kinetophone was Pin process of development. Fin l ally Edison spoke of his invention as a thing accomplished. and yes stage. the "kinetophone" was on atcrs. he Colonial, the Alhambra, Avenue. To judge from the lit- !! tie gasps of astnnishm"nt and the chorus of ''Ain'i that snmct hing wonderfully" that could be heard on all sides Inc kinrtuphonr is a success. The problem involved was fair Iy simple. Mr. Edison was look ing for perfect synrhrunizaIion of record and film. The difficulty was to have a record sufficiently sensitive tU receive the sounds from the lips of actors who would still be free to move about in front of the camera instead of being obliged tu roar into the horn of a phnnograph. Buf the difficulties have been overcome Iand the klnetnphnne is actually in vaudeville and highly regarded there.
 1 The first number of he exhibit was drsrripIiv" lecture. The screen showed q man ll one of those terribly stuify. carly eight leS rooms that motinn- picture folk seem tu affect. He talked enthusiastically about the invcn- ition, and as his lips moved the words sounded from the big ma chine behind the screen. Gesture and speech made the thing start lingly real. He broke a plate. blew a whistle, dropped weight The sounds were perfect. Then he brought on pianist. violin ISl and soprano. and The Last Rose of Summer was never lis tened to with more fascinated al tention. Finally the scope of kinetophonic powers was furth- or illustrated by a buglers apo 1plectic efforts, and the barking of some perfect collies.
 The second number was a min strel show, with orchestra. So- loists. end men. and interlocu- tor, large as life and quite as noisy. It brought down the re- ispective houses, but the real sen Sation of the day was scored quite unintentionally by the operator of the machine at the Union Square theater last evening. He inadvertently set his pictures some ten or twelve seconds ahead of his sounds, and the result was amazing. The interlocutor, who, liarly defiant and offended ex- precision, would rise p0mpously, his lips would move. he would bow and sit down. Then his speech would float out over the audience. It. would be an an- mouncement of the next song, and before it was all spoken the sing CT would be on his feet with his mouth expanded in fe1'vent but Soundless song.
 This diverted the audience vast = ly, but the Outbursts of laugh ter would come when the singer would close his lips, smile in a contented manner. bow, and re- tire while his highest and best notes Werel still ringing clear. The audience, however, knew what had happened, and the mis- hap did not serve to lessen their tribute of real wonder al EdisOn'S S
