Policewomen in Chicago visit all the moving picture theatres, the larger play houses and the railroad stations. There are always two policewomen on duty in each railroad station. Chicago has about 30 women on it's police force now, and they have done good work Most of them are middle-aged and widows. There are a few among them who have never been married and one who was formerly a charity worker. The moving picture cen sorship is under the Supervision of the police department and is very strict. Be- fore any picture is shown in a Chicago theatre 1t is first taken to police head quarters, and if there are any obiec- tionable scenes they are eliminated. Many cities in the country now have police- women. They have been found most use- full in theatres dance halls and other pub lie places, and have proved strong moral factor in cities where they are em- ployed. Young and good looking police women are not desired. for obvious reas- ons.

CHINESE MUSIC

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger
 The proprietor of Chinese restau- rant in Race street bought a phono- graph not long ago and with it a oozen records of Chinese music. Then he tried it on his patrons. From the morn issued a experimentation of cac ophony beyond the power of mere words to describe. Shrill trebles. male faisettos predominated, punctuated by speaky tenors Interspersed was the din of tom-toms and the plunk a -plunlx Of celestial banjos. It was a sextet. the proud owner averred, but not from Lucia"
 For a full minute the noise con- tinued; then 1t assumed tangible shape emblematic of the topsy-turvy char acter of the Chinese. Throughout was leit motif. repeated and reiterated time and again. Then came a crescendo. tremendous in its sharp shrillness, ac- centuated by hysteric beating of drums and humping of stringed instruments of torture. Then followed a dismal wall. more haunting than that of the ban shoe. and the seXtet was a thing of musical memory

Why White opnosed

In a letter to a friend in Alabama, Sem ator Frank s. White gives the following reasons for his opposition to the Alaskan leasing bill:
 ''I opposed this bill mainly because it was not in accordance with the policy adopted in regard to other territories, and because to lease the lands. as this bill provided-for 50 years-giving the right of federal supervision, would require the presence of large numbers of federal offi- cers, whose presence would be irritating and harmful to the people of Alaska
 That their presence would tend to pre- vent the permission of the territory to enter the union as a state; that it was the worst form of landlordism; that it set a bad precedent by injecting federal con- trol into the mere local affairs of the peo- pie of that territory-these were other req sons why opposed the bill. Had permis- sion been granted to lessees to remove coal from Alaska, Alaska would nave been robbed of it's greatest asset and would have been hindered in the develop ment of its greatest asset The lands of Alaska ought to be open for entry, as were lands in other territories. Only in this way could Alaska invite and hold a permanent population"
 Captain White made a stirring speech against the bill.

A DIvA,s DIET

From the Louisville Courier-JournaL
 A prima donna popular in grand opera contributes to the American Magazine an article which she tells how she orders her daily life, and why Briefly, the singer is abstemious because hers is the philosophy of MT. John Oakhurst, gam bier, who didn't drink because his was an occupation requiring efficiency, and in his own language he couldn't afford it."
 As to the late suppers the diva says:
 q almost never eat before going to bed. have my dinner about 3 o'clock in some toast at D and 5;S0, and then nothing until the next morning. Sometimes if I feel very tired when I come home I take cup of bouillon or half dozen oysters, but that is all. I am too ner- vously fatigued to eat. As for suppers, they are the most awful things! I can't imagine anybody being able to go out and sit and talk after they get through singing, but they do. You have no idea of the people who ask me out to supper. It gives me indigestion to think of it. The singer must be very careful of her diet. She must eat very plain food and above all very little pastry and sweets, since these. contribute to obesity, which is fatal"
 If obesity is fatal to singers it is a lingering death. Nobody who goes to the opera can fail to recall the names and figures of a score of singers great of girth as well as great in voice who have remained popular for many years. And
 figures never lie. Lissomeness and emi- hence upon the. operatic stage are popu- larly supposed to be rarely the good for less. 1t is easily imaginable that after opera suppers are taboo among singers who want to take care of themselves. Of such suppers is indigestion bred They are fit only for idlers whose digestions do not matter, inasmuch as they are not counted upon by anyone to be of service in the world. Debutantes "fall for'' late suppers as social revels not without gas- tronomic delights. But debutantes have much to learn. Older society women and men endure them as a part of the un- avoidable social routine, but older society folk have much to endure Bohemians eat late. and too much, occasionally. But nature does not heavily punish the oc- casional offender. Confirmed late and heavy eaters pay early and heavy pen alties.

A "White Slave

We don't hear quite as much about "white slavery" these days as we did a year or two ago. This may be due in part to the fact that the war Tn Europe takes up so much newspaper snace and holds the attention of so many people that lesser sensations go unnoticed.. However. a so-cailed "white slavery" case, in which St. Paul man was made the victim, illus trates how women reformers are inn posed upon in their efforts to heip innocent maidens in distress"
 An adventures, young in years but old in depravity, was awarded yer dist of $17,000 in a Minnesota court under the Mann law. According to two witnesses, the indictment was a plot "framed up" by the young woman for the purpose of making some "easy money" A former superintendent of the Chicago office of the department of justice has been ordered to appear before Judge Landis and explain ac- cusations made against him that he hoped to share in the loot. When this young woman was asked how she had managed to carry her scheme through successfully, she answered airily, "Oh, it was easy enough. The St. Paul clubwomen fought my battle. One of them went to Washington and got the Attorney General interested in the case. The poor simpleton-she was Mrs. Higbee-wanted to adopt me. One morning after party she brought my breakfast to me in the hotel while was in bed. had to eat it to make good on the innocent girl stuff"
 Doubtless the clubwomen of St. Paul have learned their lesson, but there is no telling how many other hope lessly bad young women have taken advantage of the "white slave"~ hys- teria to victimize men who probably deserve it and women who are hon. estly trying to uplift them. It is an easy matter to make good on the innocent girl stuff" when the public is already prepared to believe any sort of yarn an interruptions adventuress may prepare for its too receptive ears. There never was very much genuine "white slavery" in this country and there never will be. Society is con- fronted by much greater problems than this one.

From the New York Sun
 From Amherst, seat of the Massa- chusetts State Agricultural college, comes a lament that there is hardly a family Ill town but would lose social standing If it put pie on the breakfast table, Yet the Concord philosophers drew inspira- ton from the morning pie. They culti- vated literature upon it. The truth is that moral courage is almost extinct among us.
 It is sensitiveness unworthy of the best American traditions that accounts for the decline of pie as a family edible The unhappy result is that pie making is be- coming lost art in New England. The Amherst protestant, who must be a man of parts and fibre, sounds a warning. IL IS that perfect pies are q secret of "a few old grandmothers" that will perish with them unless the present generation takes greater interest in pie He ad- mits that the invasion of foreign cooks who have tried their prentice hand at crust making, billing and baking with woeful havoc to palate and indigestion Justifies dietists In objecting to the pies usually served in the American house. hold. It must be granted that if there were no pies to be eaten but those con- cocted by aliens and turned out by fac tories masquerading under the name of home bakeries the fight for the old New England pie would not be worth making.
 The men of New England will be dis loyal to the old stock if they do not rally round the few good women left to whom pie making at the Puritan festival season IS part of religion. What an aching vold there would be after the well crowned turkey was consumed to the last crisp If the pie made from selected pump hlns, blended with the freshest eggs. the richest milk and cunning spices did not follow with its inseparable companion. that masterpiece of pastry, the mince pie? To the last flake of crust those pies can be eaten with a divine relish. The New England conscience is in them. and inevitably they are perfect. Angels will weep if the art is forfeited by neg feet and indifference

Local Business Situation

While business in many directions is halting owing to the temporary confusion caused by the European war, Birmingham has been and is a very busy city. At the present time it is one of the busiest cities in the United States. If unit of the Ten nessee company's steel plant at Ems ley has been shut down for two weeks much industrial activity remains in that great steel section of .Birming- ham. The blast furnaces at Ensley continue in operation,' and it is prob able that before the holidays the Ensley division will not only teem with life, but will probably be buster than at any time within the past few months.
 Incidentally it is of interest to re- mark that Birmingham's postoffice receipts for September showed sub- stantial gain-a gain of $700O over the corresponding month of 1913. The postoffice revenue is always a good barometer of the general business sit uation.
 When the European war is ended the business of the whole country will boom. There will be healthy cotton market and in commercial circles pros perity will be spelled with big P.

MARY,s DREAM

By John Lowe.
 The moon had climbed the highest hill
 That rises OCT the source of Dee, And from the eastern summit shed
 Her silver light on tower and tree; When Mary laid her down to sleep,
 Her thoughts on Sandy far at sea: When, soft and low. voice was heard. Saying. Mary. weep no more for me-" She from her pillow gently raised
 Her head to ask who there might be, And saw young Sandy shivering stand
 With visage pale and hollow e'e. "Oh, Mary, dear, cold Is my clay
 It lies beneath a stormy sea- Far, far from thee I sleep in death,
 So, Mary, weep no more for me. Three stormy nights and stormy days
 We tossed upon the raging main: And long we strove our barQue to save.
 But all our striving was in vain. Even then. when horror chilled my blood
 My heart was filled with love for thea The storm is past and I at rest.
 So, Mary, weep no more for me. "Oh, maiden dear, myself prepare!
 We soon shall meet upon that shore Where love is free from doubt and care.
 And thou ana shall part no more,'' Loud crowed the cock, the shadow fled:
 No more of Sandy could she see, But soft the passing spirit said,
 Sweet Mary, weep no more for mei'

The Congressional Elections

As November approaches a large democratic victory in the Congress sional elections is virtually assured
 Last spring when calamity howl CTS in some of the large business cen ters were blaming the democratic party for unsettled conditions it seemed quite thinkable that the dem- ocratic majority in the next House would be small. The majority party, after accomplishing a great deal of constructive legislation, is usually on the defensive when election time rolls round. The very fact that the dem ocrats carried out the measures that the people expected them to enact into law arouses opposition in some directions. The democratic party did not expect to escape criticism, but today it comes nearer being emphat- ically the popular party. It is party that has labored for all classes. If it has made blunders, and of course ev- cry party makes mistakes, it has done more great things approved by the public than any dominant party at Washington has done since the civil war.
 Had the congressional elections been held three months ago the ma- jority of democratic candidates chosen might have been "close shave" victory. But now it is safe to say that the democrats will have al most as large a majority in the Sixty fourth Congress as they have in the Sixty third.
 President Wilson, who grows in popularity all the while, had intend ed making several campaign speeches, but his exacting duties at Washing ton at this time compelled him to can- eel all speaking engagements. In lieu of speechmaking the President will write letters for publication, which will have almost the same effect as the addresses which he proposed to deliver. At the Presidents request, members of the cabinet will take the stump. Certain it is that a great dem ocratic vote will be rolled up in No vember.

Fort George was built in the seventeenth century and is now as worthless as a wattle hut. What eise? There is a cathedral down at the ancient Portuguese settlement of Saint Thome, a building of respectable age. although of no especial architectural dis tinction. It dates back. perhaps, to the time when the Rajahs of Chandgherry were the rulers thereabout.

AN OBJECT OF COMPASSION

From the New York Tribune
 George Ade, apropos of a May-Decem- Der marriage, said:
 When your octogenarian millionaire weds your beautiful stenographer of F summers it is not to the radiant bride, but to the husband, that my sympathies go out.
 ''why? Well, I'll tell you why in a little fable.
 "Old Gobsa Golde had welded Tottie Footlites and one evening he called to her from his dressing room:
 My dear, for this after-theatre sup per at the hotel l don't know whether to wear my dancing shoes or my patent leather boots. Which is the better form for man of my age?
 'In her green and gold brocade kimona the young and beautiful Mrs. Gobsa Golde, stretched on a chaise-lounge, un- dergoing the attentions of her manicure and her coiffeur, called back to her poor old husband in a clear, cold voice: " The best form for a man of your age, my dear, is chloroform
