AN ELEcTRIC MATER HEATER.

II you have no all-the-year-round
hot water system In your house, and
II you are nervous about the use of
gas, your problem apparently has
been solved by the latest novely put
out by the inventors Of electrical de-
vices.
The new heater is a very simple
attachment which connects with the
water faucet over a hand basin, and
also with the electro lighting wires.
1t is made OF nickel metal and Is
about the size and shape Of q one
quart thermos bottle. Once Installed,
there is no longer any difficulty about
hot water. -.
The faucet handle is part Of the
attachment. When 1t is turned to
the right, cold water flows direct
from the basin. By simply turning
the same handle to the left the
stream of water is heated and there
is an abundance of hot water at COM
mand. The heat is instantaneous in
action and continues, of course, as
long as the spigot is left open.

Y RIA Y e LETTE
BY MIRIAM
SANTA FE.

Santa Fe, New Mexico, is a city
with remarkable past, and, accord
ing to its residents, also a remark
able future, but its present is strtk-
ingly similar to that Of about five
hundred other little towns in the
United States. OF course there IS
"burro aileye' where the Mexicans
still bring their wood to sell, packed
four feet high on the backs OF dimin-
utiye donkeys; and there is the gov
errors palace, a ruined adobe
house now converted into a museum;
and there are still a few really pic
turesque persons to be seen roaming
about the streets; but these are only
touches, and aside from them, Santa
Fe is q neat little ely of frame and
brick, quite sanitary and habitable,
and altogether ordinary. 1t is be-
coming more SO every. year. Only
recently some fraternal order built
a home there, said to have been mod
'eled after the Spanish Alhambra, and
painted almost exactly the color of
tomato catsup.
Fifty years ago, and even less,
Santa Fe was a larger and liyelier
place than it is now, and a town of
contrast, and color probably not to be
equalled in this country There came
the swarthy grandees OF old Mexico
to scatter. pesos among the greedy
traders from across the plains; and
trappers in buckskin with foxtails in
their caps and long rifles in. Their
hands; and cowboys OF the old time
range in gorgeous goatskin chaps
and eighteen dollar hats; and gaily
caparisoned Mexican paqueros, and
soldiers and scouts and men of a
number or other types now gone for
ever, all eager for reyelry, ready to
first for the charms of gazelle-eycd
senoritas who gracefully capered and
twisted through the sensuous meas
ures of the fandango. Good whiskey
and Mexican gold were abundant in
Santa FNe in those days, and men
lived; for love and pelf, as when the
world WIS young.
But, alas for time ald change. All
the fetching theatrical properties 81

neTed In a little museum, where an
octogenarian pioneer presides over

''bailiey and the shouts Of jewellers
were heard, night is now made sad by
the plaintive we'll OF a Sunday schoos
practicing hymns.
Modern Sante; Fe is startled by
even a sFeniinder Of the old lawless
days. Not long ago, two nice young
n2lishnien, seeing the world, reach
cd Santa Fe, and, wishing to be in
tune with their surroundings, dis
carded tweeds and derbys for Khaki
and riding boots and sombreros, let
their wiliskers grow, and staggered
down the streets Of the city with
what bravado they could muster. A
citizen OF Santa Fe approached them
gingerly, as one who takes his life
in his hands for the common good.
He was 81 small, dapper, bald-headed
man. and looked like a bookkeeper

SN-ss'.
sslSynopsis of preceding chapters:
On the eighth of December, seventeen
days before Christmas, Ethelhammer,
the nine months old son Of Beezwing
Calder, disappeared mysteriously
from the Calder mansion on Snick's
Hill. Three weeks before the disap-
pearance, strange note had been
delivered to Mr.. Calder by strange
postman. 1t contained only the sim
pie message: "1f you let the day
slip, beware lest the nightfall!" The
best detectives in the country, and
also the city, We're employed to clear
the mystery, but in vain. On the
morning Of little Ethelhammer's dis
appearance, the Calder doorbell rang
necessarily for five minutes. But
when the butler fastened to the door,
NO one was there. Close search, how
ever. revealed note sticking from
the mouth of a milk bottle. It read:
"Milkman, leave three quarts" Moth
ing was thought of this coincidence,
however, and at 4 o'clock in the af-
ternoon OF the day Of his disappear
ance, Ethelhammer was sitting on
the front doorsteps quite unguarded.
An hour later all that was to be found
of him was a little circle drawn in
blue chalk on the spot where he had
been sitting, with a red cross in the
center Of 1t, also in chalk).

At ten minutes to eleven, when the
house was being locked up for the
night, the missing child was found
quietly sleeping behind the vestibule

he was a cocoon.

MANY FOLLOW STARS FIGHT
AGAINST FISH COMBINE AT
HEARING IN CONGRESS TODAY
Urge House Members in Washington Conference to Approve
Federal Safeguarding Of Fish Supply and Provide for
Regulation of Seasons by the Dept. of Commerce.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-The fish
cry question drew out large attend
ance at the hearing today before the
committee on the Merchant Marine
and Fisheries. Representative Lin
thicum's measure for the protection
of fish food was before the committee.
Among the delegations present to
urge the passage of the bill of the
Maryland congressman were George
d. Smith and Joseph II. Crawford,
representing the Newark Star, and
Others interested in the preservation
of edible fish In the Maryland and
Virginia swaters.
Representative Linthicum's BILL.
which has been referred to in fhe
Newark Stars agitation for the safe
guarding of the fish supply of the
New Jersey coast, demands the pro-
lection of fish not remaining the en-
tire year within the waters of any
State or territory, and authorizes the
Department of Commerce to define
the seasons and regulate the manner
and conditions under which they may
be taken of destroyed. This bill, If
it becomes a law, will not in any de-
gree interfere with the game and fish
laws of New Jersey. On the con-
trary, it will render the present State
laws easier to enforce. The bill reads
as follows:
BE IL enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives of the
United States of America, in Con-
gress assembled, that all fish that do
not remain the entire year within
the waters of any State or Territory
shall hereafter be deemed to be with

government of the United States, and
shall not be taken or destroyed con-
trary to regulations hereinafter pro-
vided therefor; provided however,
that this act shall not apply to fish
when they may be in waters solely
within State or Territory, which
waters are not outlets of streams,
fsaving their sources beyond the bor-
ders of said State or Territory"

Finding May Be Announced
in Three Months.

by the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion on the proposed freight rate in
creases is expected to be reached
probably within three months and
certainly before the commission ad-
journs for its summer recess on July

TALLY made by Commissioner Harlan
today
Commissioner Harlan said:
Recognizing the public Importance
of an early disposition Of the prob
lens before us here the carriers,
shippers and the commission are US
ing every effort to bring the inquiry
to an early conclusion, and there is
reason to think the record on tho
main issues in the case may be closed
and the arguments had in time to en-
able the commission to dispose of
those questions the summer recess .
that the commission had before it
two broad inquiries in respect of the
proposed advance:
The Two Broad inquiries.
Are the present revenues of the
carriers adequate?
IF not, how may they be supple
mented?
with the first of these ISSUES, the
| carriers have already offered much
testimony, but their witnesses have
not been cross-examined; nor have
the Investigations by the commission
on that question been completed. We
are also advised that certain ship
ping interests will submit important
testimony touching the adequacy of
the present revenues of carriers. In
aideof an understanding of the first
question and of a proper solution of
the second question, the commission,
as | explained at a recent hearing.
has also addressed certain inquiries
to Carriers which they have not yet
been able fully to answer. Pending
the preparation by the railroads OF
their replies, we have been hearing
the protests of shippers against the
proposed increase in the rates on GER
tain particular commodities in which
they deal or are otherwise interest

At the hearings held so far. testi-
mony was taken regarding free ser
vices ana special allowances TO large
shippers. A hearing will be held here
February 7and 2S to consider further
the charges for "spotting' cars on
side tracks and for similar services;

will be argued. Records of the ecm-

LOANS $4,000
ENTRUSTED HER
Mrs. Daumont Surprised When
Vice-ChanceIlor Informs Her
of Transactions IlIegality.

Before Vice Chancellor Emery in
Chancery Chambers yesterday. Mrs.
Hattie B. Daumont. of Ridgewood,
was principal witness. The suit is
over the estate of Amos BBurhans,
father of the principals. The estate
originally was worth $4,000, but has
since dwindled to $4,000, The con-
tention made is that there has been
dissipation in the management of the
trust.
The witness testified she believed
her sisters and brother had nothing
to do with the trusteeship and there
was consequently no need for con-
sulting them on matters pertaining
to the trust. She admitted she had
made a loan of s25, 900 on a promisory
note to a Maiden lane, New York,
jeweler. The principal had been paid
back with interest, she said. The
witness was somewhat surprised
when informed by the vice-chancellor
that the loan was Illegal,
Attorney keasby, representing thu
complainant contended that the loan
of $4,000 made to the concern of
which Benjamin Daumont, her hus-
band. was an officer, was illegal. and
contended that Benjamin Daumont
should be held to account. Vice
Chancellor Emery thought differently,
inasmuch as the money was not
loaned directly to the husband, but
to his concern. He asked. however,
that Attorney Keasby submit authori-
ties on the question.
As to the trusteeship, Vice-Chan-
cellor Emery said he believed it should
be destroyed, and would SO find in
his opinion. To this Attorney II. M.
T. Beekman, representing the de-
fendant, said his client would be glad
to be relieved of the burden.
Attorney Beekman, after complet-
ing his case, announced to the court
his willingness to submit 1t without
argument, but the court said he
would be glad ito hear counsel. The
complaints side was argued. Attor-
ney Beekman will argue his case next
Wednesday.
