wonderful t ing. "Organized"
charity is more so. The census
bureau has just exposed-exposed
is the right word-the figures for
the year of 1910.
There is a total of $l18, 900, 600
given yearly to institutions which
have property valued at S643, ,O00,-
900. Out of this 6. and total the
institutions spent in their turn $11
500, 600 in charity, or about 81 for
every 500 received.
Of course there were positions for
small army of investigators, doc
tors, lawyers, etc, and perhaps
these should also be classed as re-
ceiving charity. But the main fact
stands out like a sore thumb that
organized charity is business like
any other business and that the
people for whom it is ostensibly or
ganized do not receive enough ben
eft from the institution to justify
its continuance for a minute. No
wonder a contemporary says the
charitable institutions do not want
poverty to be eliminated for fear
they will lose their jobs. = Seattle

Chicago. H.. June 6.-After the
charge of trespess made by Mark Nor
ton against Webb J, Miller, a reporter
for the Chicago Evening American,
had besn thrown out OF court yester-
day, Miller retaliated with q suit de-
manding $4,000 damages for false ar
rest.
At the hearing OF the trespass case
before Justice Herriok at Wheaton,
the millionaire father of Helen, head
strong heiress," admitted he had
bound Miller with rope when the re-
porter visited the Morton farm on
wednesday and had Communicated
the reporters machine for the re-
mainder OF the journey to the sheriff's
office after his motor had turned
turtle"
It was brought out that the Morton
''Visitors Welcome" sign was much
larger than one forbidding trespassing.

my foreman helped me wind the
rope around Miller and one Of the
other men offered his assistance, but
really didn't need any aid" Morton
testified. II have a barrel of tar and
some feathers in my barn for him
and men of his kind. and will use 1t

Some Future Items-Maybe.
Helen is home, and she is going to
stay home, Mr.. Reporter" interrupted
Mrs. Morton. There won't be any
more news about her in future than
there will be about any of the other
lundred-odd nice girls in Lake Forest.
II you are ever getting an article about y
he nice girls out here we may have

Because Helen went away once is

London, England, June 6.-Since
Mrs. Panlkhurst. kicking and squirm

from the very gates OF Buckingham
palace. where she was making a dem
onstration. the militant suffragets have
been more active and more ferocious
than ever. The destruction of prop
erty has been appalling, and now
threats are being made by the mill
tants that they will no longer respect
human life.
This attitude on the part OF the
sufTragets has increased the bitter
ness of their foes, and 1t is now re-
garded as certain that the first time
Mrs. Pankhurst and her followers
are caught by the mob they will be
treated with ferocity unless police
are at hand to protect them

Mrs. Pankhurst now is located in a
