THE CONFESSIONS OF A WIFE
AM MUCH WORRIED OVER JACK

J. Hm MOSTl WIN
Confession cLXIx.
Copyright, 1914, by the Newspaper
Enterprise Association.)
am very much upset about Dicks
brother Jack. am afraid that there
are rocks ahead, not only for him, but
for Mary.
Yesterday Dick told me that Jack
had not been near his fathers store
since he came back from college.
''Is Mary so~terribly ill.," asked
Dick.
NO" / answered "she is getting
along splendidly now. Why do you
ask"
Because he has not been at the
store since he returned and Dad feels
much hurt about it.
l did not tell Dick that Jack had
only spent a little time each day at
the hospital and that / had passed
him the other afternoon, when was
going to see Mollie, with crowd of
college fellows in motor seeming
to be having a joy ride.
AS soon as Dick had gone / went
over to the hospital to see Mary. l
found her alone, and l thought she
had been crying when l came in, but
she is a brave little thing, and she
tried to smile as she told me that the
physicians at the hospital said she
could go.to her boarding house in
week.
81 shall be glad, DEAR" she said,
for it is so expensive here and I
want to save some of that thousand
dollars that Aunt Mary gave us to
furnish little apartment"
asked her if Jack had been at the
hospital yet that morning and she
said: "Oh, 1 told Jack he need not
come to see me every day now, for
you know he is so busy getting things
fixed with his father"
must have looked rather grave,

her hands out and grasped my arms.
''Margie, Margie, must tell some
one! l am afraid, horribly afraid"
she whispered.
What about dearest?" asked as
l put my arms about her. you are
going to get well now and everything
is going to be all right
"It isn't about me, dear, that Pm
afraid, for can only die, you know;
Margie, am worried about Jack. He
doesn't seem like he did when first
knew him and we had those beautiful
weeks up in the north woods. Margie,
Margie, love him! l have loved him
so entirely since the first night met
him at that supper, which some of
the boys gave us, that l have really
had no other life than his. l am so
glad to be his wife. Why, dear, love
him so much that had he asked me
to go up in the woods with him with
out being married l am afraid 1
would have gone, and l sometimes
think I am very wicked to feel this :
way"
But, my DEAR" said, 'Tdon't I'M
derstand why you are unhappy now;
you did not do it; you have Jack and.
we all love you. What are you afraid
off"
81 am afraid Jack drinks too much
liquor Last night when he came to
see me he could hardly talk coherent
Iy, and l know he should have all his
wits about him now when we are just
starting out in life. Do you think this
is going to be my punishment for
loving him too much?"
Nonsense; you are not going to be
punished for doing the one thing that
puts humanity above the brutes-
loving-but l am afraid, my dear,
that Mr., Jack will get some hard
bumps if he doesn't pull up short"

PREDICTS INCREASE
IN COUNTY LEv|ES
Bowman Estimates Raise of
One Cent or More for 1915
Tax.

In all probability the county tax
levy for next year will be 47.9 cents.
This is the estimate made by Coun'
ty Auditor Bowman today, after re.
viewing all of the appropriations for
next year, which will come up for rat.
1fication by the county COUNCIL, The
county tax levy will be mads~by the
county council next Tuesday morn
ing.
According to the estimate of the
county auditor the levy will be
cent higher than last year. The total
appropriation out of the general fund
of the county Is $12,718. The special
road sinking fund amounts to $21,
'S31.69. The free turnpikes will cost
the county $35,O61 next year if this
appropriation is ratified by the coun
Gil. This is an increase of over So,
900 over year. but was made neces
sary because of the increased mileage
of county roads.
Two road bonds will be paid off next
year, and the interest on the rest will
be included in the appropriation to be
settled next week.
The increase of ! cent will mean a
great increase in the funds for this
year. owing to the increased assess
ment.

MISS BOPPART SAFE
| ON way TO U, S. A.
Richmond Woman Gables Of
Arrival in London After
Fleeing Switzerland.

"Safe In England" is the terse as
surance given Dr. and Mrs. ]. A. Bop
part, ~ North Eighth street, that their
daughter, Miss Bertha Boppart, Is now
on her way home, after being hemmed
In on all sides In Switzerland since
the first of August. Miss Boppart
has been in Fribourg, Switzerland. Wis.,
iting her aunt since the first of July.
The cabiegram received this morn
ing came as surprise to her family
as 1t was thought she was still in
Switzerland. No apprehension was
felt for her safety as no reports were
forthcoming from Switzerland indicat-
ing disturbance in that country. Ac-
cording to her father, she probably ap-
pealed to the American ambassador at
Berne, Switzerland, who assisted her
in getting transportation to England
through France.
In letter received from her, dated
at Fribourg, August IL, she said the
situation at that time was quiet. Swiss
troops were being modified, not for
the purpose of entering into the war,
but merely for the purpose of patrol
ing the Swiss border. She said none
of the Swiss feared the effects of the
war on their country.
DIR. Boppart said his daughter prob
ably would sail from England on the
steamer Olympic, on which boat she
already has passage. This boat will
sail from England September 9.

BY CRUMP
REACHES PARENTS
Message Tells of Intention to
Return Directly to United
States. @

Judging from what is contained in
letter received today from Clifford
Crump, his parents. DIR. and Mrs. c. F.
Crump of Greensboro. are at a loss tn
know the actual experiences of the
young man, who according 10 a recent
cablegram, il now at Calais. France.
A letter was received this morning by
his family, dated on board the steamer
Sierra Nevada, August 2. On that
date the ship turned from it's course
from Buenos Aires to France, and was
bound for the port of Pernambuco.
What makes the situation more
complicated to Crump's family is that
in this letter the young man stated his
intention of returning to the United
States direct instead of exposure to
the conditions in France, as he had
originally intended.
Wednesday a cablegram was receiv-
ed from Falais, France. stating that
the young man was stranded in France
and asking aid from home. Money
was sent him Immediately through the
state department at Washington. How
he got to France is the question that
puzzles the family.
1t is believed that the ship on which
he was sailing to Europe. or perhaps
to the United States. from PeLSam-
buco, was captured and taken YEA
lais.

TAXATION
OF MOVIE TICKETS
TBY LEASED WIRE.1

WASHINGTON, Sept. Sat a con-
ference, Democrats of the ways and
means committee practically abandon
ed the idea of taxing railroad tickets
as one method of raising additional
revenue as war tax. Decided oppo-
sition also developed to the taxation
of gasoline.
Representatives Kitchin and Garner
led the opposition to the proposal to
tax railroad tickets. 1t was urged that
the public is continually fighting for
cheap transportation, and that the tax
alton of such tickets would incure the
hostility of every traveller.
Opposition to the tax on gasoline was
based on the fact that this product is
used in rural communities for operat-
ing farm machinery.
Indications now are that tax is
to be levied on beer and wines and
probably whisky. baseball and theatre
tickets, moving picture films, moving
picture theatre tickets and soft drinks
Democrats on the committee will not
tax tobacco unless it is found essen
tial from revenue standpoint.

WHO WANTS PLACE
WITHOUT SALARY?
Council Committee Offers
City Forester Job to Public
Spirited Citizen.

The office of city forester will again
be placed on the market for occupa-
ton by a public spirited citizen who
would give his services gratis for the
conservation of the trees and shrubs
in the city and for the planting and
caring for of additional trees.
Ebert Russell, councilman at large
who is chairman of the committee
which was appointed to consider the
petition of West Richmond citizens
asking that money be appropriated to
purchase and plant young trees, sug-
gests that the same method be tried
as the Zimmerman administration
worked successfully. The forester
would be permitted to work under
private contract If he made this his
business.
John Thompson, assistant principal
of the high school and teacher in bot
any, held the slace and did valuable
work for the city for two years.

CHIEF TO INCREASE
PATROLMEKS PAY
Goodwin Asks Board to
Grant Each Man Monthly
Raise of $500.

Chief of Police Goodwin last night
asked the board of Metropolitan Po-
lice Commissioners for general in
crease or SIS a month to each man in
the department. 1t is probable that an
increase will be ordered for the first
of the year although no additional
funds have been appropriated.
The members of the board agreed
that the policemen should be given
SIS a month instead of $40 as the de-
partment is far short in numbers Of
the maximum to which it is entitled.
This brought on a discussion Of the
nigh cost of living and aside from al
lowing bills, the meeting was devoted
entirely to talking over sincreased
prices of commodities.
The police chief does not want
more men at present. In the holiday
season, he expects to attach others
to the department temporarily. He is
considering adding a woman in De-
cember to apprehend sAop lifters.
