THAT AMoRT MURDER

Further evidence connecting Allen

blood-stained, to the Lake View tail

state Of Illinois and substituted there
for his whim and caprice, such man
may receive the support of the intelli-
gent professional classes, but if he
does receive that support, and has re-
ceived it, it is the only support he will
receive from any class of voters, as
the people at large will disapprOve
not alone his conduct as reprimand-
ed by the Supreme Court, but they
will also oppose the man who estab-
lished, or sought to establish judicial
anarchy in place of the written
statutes of our state.
The election machinery is not
Democratic, and has never been
Democratic since the election Of
Owens. Taylor, one of the election
commissioners, was candidate for
United States senator on the indie
pendence League ticket. Chas.
Mitchell was candidate for states at
tOrney on the same ticket.
l have always tried in both my pub
lie and private career to give a square
deal to everything in life, and have
constantly endeavored to be with the
underdog. The only thing in the
whole Owens campaign that appeals
to me is that he is the UnderdOg, so
far as others are concerned, as he will
hardly receive enough votes to count.
Our campaign has been conducted on
the basis that OWENS MUST GO.
Public sentiment will see that he
goes, despite any effort to steal the
nomination and election for him.

Washington, Sept. SIN an effort
to end the Colorado coal strike Pres.
Wilson has appealed to employers
and employees to adopt a tentative
basis for the adjustment of the strike,
drawn up by the commission of con-
Citation.
The basis of the agreement offered
by the president includes a three
year truce subject to enforcement of
the mining and labor laws of Colo
RADIO; the return to work of miners
who have not been convicted of law
violations; the prohibition of intimi-
dalton of union or non-Union men;
the publication of current scale of
wages and rules, and the appoint
ment OF a grievance committee by
the employees. In the event that the
grievance committees cannot settle
difficulties, a committee of three men
named by the president shall act as
final referee of the dispute.
Under the agreement the claim for
contractuTal relations would be waiv-
ed, no mine guards would be employ
ed, the federal troops now on duty
in the strike zone would be with
drawn, picketing, parading, coloniz-
ing or mass campaigning by the min
ers would be stopped, and the sus-
pension of work would be prohibited
pending a decision by the commits
sion.

AIR AFFECTED BY SOUND
Ventilation and Acoustics Of Public
Places Seem General Matter
of Controversy.

The effect Of ventilation on the
acoustics of public halls has been a
subject Of investigation. Architects
have found that currents or layers Of
air of different density interfere seri.
ously with the passage Of sound, but
that mass of moving air-if homo
geneous-may have little influence.
Heaters in front Of the stage give es.
pecial trouble.
A book by c. GARNER mentions a
new Paris theater in which air Is ad-
mitted near the footlights, forming a
kind of curtain between actors and
spectators, and much interference re.
suits, the sound from the stage being
weak, while that from the orchestra Is
intense.
In another theater with ventilation
by heated air passed across the stage
into the auditorium there was i'm
provement in the acoustic qualities
when the ventilating apparatus was
working.
Another inquirer concludes that ven
tilation can have only slight influence
in improving acoustics, that parallel
layers of air may be particularly harm
full and that a single column OF uni
formly heated ascending air will affect
sound very slightly.

b0ON 70 THE SMALL BOY
Steplcss Cars in New York Enable
Him to Procure Numerous
Free Rides.

No matter what else can be said
in regard to the new stepless cars now
In operation on Broadway, they are
certainly boon to the small boy who
depends on riding free, says the New
York Times.
Tho advent of the pay as-you-enter
car and the success of the idea OF
placing a tin guard over the rear
bumper, thus frustrating the efforts
Of those bent on obtaining free rides
by sitting on the bumper. have done
much to obviate all chances of riding
on surface cars without paying the
necessary nickel. The small boy as
usual, suffered most from those inven-
tions.
1t goes without saying that 1t was
not an intentional act on the part OF
the company providing means for the
small boy to ride free.
The boy waits for a crowded car at
a corner where he notices some one
else waiting. When that person
crowds into the car the boy follows,
unknown to the conductor. The boy
makes sure to hide himself behind the
form of an adult. The conductor on
his eyrie fails to notice the boy, and
after the car has run on for number
Of blocks the conductor cannot be
positive the boy failed to deposit his
nickel in the box

BY the Professor.

Professor Jones and Mrs. Jones

known as strawberry blends. In ac-
cordance with the immemoria1 custom
of professors families on small sal

Mary, the first, was born, and her hair
came perilously near to being cerise.
The twins lost to Mary in respect OF
red hair by just shade. Johnny, the
next, babe fair at three months to
make Mary seem neutral color. Now,
Mrs. Jones longed for just one black
haired one When the learned pro-
fessor Of ology from the scientific de.
partment dropped in for supper, Mrs.
Jones almost tearfully propounded to
him question.

it must always be hereditary"
The doctor looked from the aureoles
of Professor and Mrs. Jones to the
successive four alarms Of fire-red hair
on the little Joneses.
Not SO much that" he assured hes
at last, "as redheditary."
