Into Office

Burlington. Jan. 29.-Miss Sophia
Tabouret, appointed specia. police
woman, took the oath OF office at the
police commissioners room last eve
ming. Miss Tabouret was then intro
duced TO the members of the force
and TO the commissioners by Mayor
Burke. The mayor urged that the
male policemen cooperate with Miss
Tabouret and give her all the assis-
lance that is necessary and 10 always
extend TO her the courtesy OF gentle-
men. Miss Tabouret viii begin her
duties today, and will do patrol duty
on Church street during the evening
when conditions demand She is APP
pointed AS special but later she will
be made qualified special which
means that she will be available the
same az regular and may be called
upon at any time. She will then
have her quarters at the Rest Room,
which viii be open every evening in
It she will not engage in the more
st'enous duties of the police officer

bGnce or the like but she viii look az
ter women who are unfortunate
enough to come into contact with
the law By reason OF misdemeanor or
crime. or who have been reduced to
poverty and are apt to becomt city
charges. or who are otherwise in dis.
tress. The Office is an entirely new
one and is largely experimental, but
II is expected there will be plenty Of
opportunity for Miss Tabouret's work
and that the duties OF the office will
become more manifest rs time goes
by.

CONFEDERATE Bill
NOT LEGAL TENDER
Wedding Guests Resent Spu-
rious Currency rendered for
Dance With Bride

II was at q wedding at No. 1896
Centralave. last Sunday night Louis
Seracki was q guest. He tried TO be
q good fellow.
Wednesday morning he appeared In
police court. His face looked like q
map OF the User river district after
q bayonet charge.
He testified against Peter Dollett
and John KuJafski, whom he charged
with assault
He said that he remembered see
ing Peter and John closing In on him,
and that was all he did remember.
Peter and John. also the bride and
groom and several OF the wedding
guests, defended Peter and John.
They swore that Seracki was q regu-
lar cut up. He had started IN. they
said, by tossing q $40 bin ON the plate
before he danced with the bride.
Then he danced and danced with the
bride, while everybody murmured,
Hes q sport, that fellow"
Some Jealous person took the $40
over to q saloonkeeper who pro-
nounced Il q confederate bill.
Meanwhile Seracki had borrowed a
pair of good shoes from one Of the
other guests, who had exchanged
them for dancing pumps. Serack
left o battered old pair OF shoes In
their place. as he danced with tho
bride.
Just as the shoe trade was dis
covered, the confederate bill matter
was revealed to the guests. Then 1t
happened.
Justice Stein said he could hardly
blame Peter and John. He dismissed
them.
And don't try any more sport stun
at Polish wedding" he said to Sc
racki "Not on confederate bill,
anyway"

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. ia firm
stand against increasing the defenses
OF this country was taken by the chief
officers Of the American Federation
of Labor today. This action was pro-
voked by the report Of the retiring
head Of the United States army, Gen.

United States army be increased to a
half million men, trained after the
German style.
II am emphatically and uncompro-
misingly opposed to any scheme to
enlarge the United States army and
navy" exclaimed Samuel Compers.
president OF the federation. IL be.
lieve that those who wish to abolish
war must lose no opportunity to i'm
part the ethics OF humanity and make
the sacredness Of human life q part
OF the thought and action Of the ma
tion."
James Duncan, first vice-president
of the federation, was equally as We
hement In his opposition to Cen.
Wotherspoon's advice. Duncan said /:
'It would prove serious mistake
to continue to improve the military
establishment We now see how con.
slant arming for war In Europe has
precipitated the greatest conflict Of all
ages. a catastrophe from which II will
perhaps require centuries to recover.
II stands to reason that when q man
loads himself up with revolvers, dirks
and other murderous instruments. he
Is bound TO get into trouble. II IL
