TO CURE WOMEN SMOKERS

Chicago. March IA clinic for

The treatment is simply the spray
ing of the throat with a solution OF
nitrate of silver. Fifteen women
have already been treated by u.s." as
serts Lucy Page CASTOR, president of
the league. I'm every instance the
desired aversion for cigarettes was
the result. Our first feminine appli-
cant was a chorus girl, who began
putting cigarettes in a spirit OF bra
vado. One Of her associates taught
her how to inhale and the habit \ob-
tanned such a hold on her that she
often rose in the night for a smoke.
I'VE are opening the clinic because
we believe there are thousands of
girls and women In Chicago who
would rid themselves Of the vice IL

GEORGE WESTINGHOUSE Dies
INVENTOR OF AIR THE BRAKE
PASSES AT NEW YORK HOME.
Was Foremost Figure in Engineering
World - Ridiculed For Great
Traffic Device.

New York, March 14.-George West
inghouse, a foremost figure in the
world of engineering and inventor of
the airbrake that bears his name, is
dead at his residence in this city, of
heart disease. He was in his sixty
eighth year. The funeral will be at
the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian church,
and the burial will be in Woodlawn
cemetery.
Westinghouse became an inventor
at the age of Is, when he produced a
rotary engine. Four years later he
constructed a device for replacing de-
rallied steam cars. Then, when 81
years old, he sought the financial
backing of the late Commodore Cor
nelius Vanderbilt for his now famous
airbrake, perfected after three years
of labor.
DO you mean to tell me you can
stop a railroad train by wind?" de-
manded the commodore.
well, yes, inasmuch as air is wind,
| suppose you are right" spoke the
youth.
II have no time TO waste on FOOLS"
the commodore said, thus abruptly ter
minating the interview.
Westinghouse sought and found cap.
ital elsewhere, manufactured his in
vention,. and made high speed possible
OIL railroads, rev%olutionizing traffic
systems and i~naugurating a notable
era of railway development.
Mr.. Westinghouse did not confine
his genius to railroading. For half a
century he continued to make other
contributions to electrical as well as
engineering advancement. His inven-
tions and improvements had to do
with railway signalling; the develop
ment of the alternating current sys-
TEN for electric lighting and power,
and devices for safety.

ST. LOUIS DEATH TOLL IS so
TWENTY-oNE BODIES HAVE BEEN
RECOVERED THUS FAR.
investigation by Joint Committee OF
the Municipal Assembly Begins
in Earnest.

st. Louis, Mo-, March 14.-Twelve
more bodies have been recovered
from the ruins of the Missouri Ath.
letic club, destroyed by fire Monday
morning, bringing the total number
recovered to IS. OF these, IL have
been identified, but one of the identi-
fications is doubtful.
The bodies of II others are be-
lieved to be in the ruins, making the
total death toll 80. The finding Of
the club register and a comparison of
the names therein with lists already
prepared confirmed the club officers
in the belief that the death roll would
not exceed 80.
A joint committee of the municipal
assembly is conducting an inquiry
into the aus of the disaster. The
ron has just begun taking testi-
mony. The last body taken out of the
ruins is thought to be hat of Thomas
B. Shyne of ST. Louis, salesman for
the Underwood Typewriter company.
One Of the bodies removed was
identified as that of George Goener,
wealthy president of the Wellston
Trust company of st. Louis and of the
Holstein Commission company.
Chief Swingley was the chief wit
ness before the joint commission of
the municipal assembly which began
an investigation into the fire. When
asked if he would have slept at the
club the chief replied:
Well, | never take chances"
He attributed the rapid spread of
the flames to escaping gas, which
could not be turned off until Tuesday.

Panic Reigns For Time.
Panic reigned along the water front,
with tugboats steaming up to save
the shipping, and sailors cutting loose
all locked craft into the Willamette
river. Open drawbridges delayed the
arrival of fire department, and the
flames were beyond control when the
land apparatus got into action. The
fireboat David Campbell worked from
the river, but the fire swept landward.
The steamers Cricket and Glenroy,
moored at Columbia dock No. l and
Montgomery dock No. 2, caught fire.

Dock Also Burns.
The Cricket drifted broadside along
the Montgomery dock where the Glen.
roy lay, and the two steamers and the
dock ignited. The dock burned to the
piling, on the water front end.
Thirty-one Chinese sailors on the
Glenroy got ashore and were taken in
charge by the immigration officials
and the steamer, a steel boat, burned
to her hull, her steel plates warpine
and cracking.
Alarmed lest the drifting Cricket
carry the confiagration further, the
fireboat David Campbell started in
pursuit, the firemen on board not dar
ing to approach too close to the burn,
ing ship. The Campbell caught the
Cricket by a graphing line and towed
her TO midstream, but not until the
Montgomery dock had been set on fire
and was a mass of flames.
The police took the first mate of the
Glenroy off that ship, where he lay
with a broken arm and other injuries
and several injured Chinese sailors
were rushed to hospitals.
