tras showed deep emotion and his

Surely the jury won't convict him."
The parents of the murdered girl
were in court and eye dthe defendant
grimly while the prosecutor denounc-

The address revealed that the state
relies upon circumstantial evidence
to convict Petras.
An investigation is being made into

Corporation lawyers have found
way by which the owners of the Bell
telephone interests can-take over the
whole telephone equipment and the
tunnels of the Automatic system
without going to the city council of
Chicago and asking permission to
merge, according to Penny Phone
League men who have investigated
the mysterious tax title purchase by
Jacob Clos.
William A. Guinea, who has been
the attorney for the league, was ask
ed to find out whether the phone mo-
nopOlists have put one over through
the Clos deal. Guinea interviewed
County Clerk Robert Sweitzer on the
operation of the tax title laws and
then made this statement:
Ownership of the SO miles of
downtown tunnels and all the tele-
phone equipment known as the Auto
matte system is today in the hands
Of Jacob Clos, tax buyer: The county
clerk is preparing a certificate of sale,
which will go to Mr. Clos in a few
days. For this certificate of sale, Clos
will pay $64,728.
cat any time within the next six
months the Illinois Tunnel Co. will
have a chance to buy back it's prop
erty by paying the $64,728 of taxes
to the county and a penalty of 25
per cent to Clos.
zone year from now the Illinois
Tunnel Co. can again buy its prop
eTty back, but the penalty then will
be so per cent. In 18 months the pen
atty will be Is per cent. In two years
100 per cent.
cat the end of two years, if the
taxes and penalties have not been
paid, the property belongs to Jacob
Clos, and if the city of Chicago
should hold that the property is for
E L IL o.
The day book., 1914-09-30

His business is to watch tax sale
deals and pick up anything that looks
good to him. He regularly has money
on deposit at the county clerks office
for convenience and quickness in
transactions.
''Of course, it is possible that Clos
grabbed the whole downtown tunnel
system because he was shaTp-eyed
and the Illinois Tunnel Co. officers
and Office system went to sleep and
forgot all about paying $64,728 Of
taxes after repeated warnings from
the county treasurer. That is pos
sible, but not probable.
Eve have the right to our opinion
that powerful railroad and telephone
interests who want the tunnels for
transportation and the phone system
for the scrap pile are back of Mr..
Clos In his deal, Clos has not vio-
lated any law. But it looks as though
he is playing a big game by which
the peoples title to the Automatic
phone system will be cIouded or de-
feated."
A report on how the Clos deal af-
fects the phone situation will be
made by Guinea to the officers of the
Penny Phone League.

CONFESSIONS OF A Wife
''Modesty and My wife"

You see, dear, for the moment
she is the business of his life It's
just like getting a big bill of
books through.
"Oh, | know that doesn't sound
romantic" he said as he saw my
face lengthen, but it's horse
sense and it means just as much
as though ! said IL In this way:
Dearest, I could do nothing
think of nothing until l knew you
were going to be my sweet wife. !"
/ laughed. Dick mimicked a
love-lorn chap so deliciously.
But after marriage the bill of
goods is sold-you've won," Dick
continued, land a man naturally
goes back to his real work"
Then I'm only a side line,"
said demurely.
Dick caught me to him. why
will you be so fussy, Margie, and
you're so pretty while you say
these things that | want to shake
you and kiss you at the same mo-
ment."
Suppose you try the last first, 4"

Is fit to wear"
why don't you wear that gold
spangly thing that | liked so well
when we first msrried2"
Dick" 1 questioned solemnly,
do you realize how long we have
been married."
Sure. two years and three
months"
do you know how long the
fashion of an evening dress lasts
MY 'spangly gown as you call

half ago. Why, Dick dear. tight
skirts with splits in them have
come in
"Margie, do you mean to tell
me that you are thinking of wear
ing one of these indecent skirts
that show your legs nearly to the
knee2"
why not? I'm not like the
Queen of Spain-I've got legs as
well as arms and they are just as
necessary to me-"

marks about my wife"

The children were dressed In this fashion
in the time that Dickens wrote his immortal

THE PINAFORE
These little dresses may be made from big
