If you walk along Glenarm street
And stop at siNteen-thirty-f four,
You will notice Matt or Harry
Standing in the door.
They have two union walters there,
And some singers too.
Who will cheer you up
When you are feeling blue
We only have two months left
In which We can have some fun;
Let all go to this cafe
And come back home with a bun.

Jamaica Asks Dates
To Hold Racing Meet

NEW YORK. Jan. S.-Owners Of the
Jamaica racetrack are contemplating
applying to the Jockey Club for racing
dates for the coming season. a repre-
sentative OF the Metropolitan Jockey
Club has already made a verbal re-
quest. and 1t Is more than probable the
ruling body will sanction racing there.
1t IL understood that Senator w. H.
Reynolds. Otto Huber. and other stock
holders In the Jamaica plant have de-
cided to repair and improve the track
as soon as possible. They will also
guarantee liberal stakes and purses.
and are anxious to race some time be-
fore midsummer.
The stewards OF the Jockey Club
probably will allot these dates after
the Aqueduct meeting. some time In
June. which means that Jamaica would
precede Empire City in the schedule of
meetings around New York.

THE LAWS OF MOSES
 COPIES OF ANCIENT
 LAWS, SAYS COBERN
Professor of Allegheny College De- flyers Interesting Lecture on Moses and His
 Times

Philadelphia. April 7.-Interesting fea- lures of the ancient Mosaic laws were detailed by Prof. Camden M. Cobern of Allegheny college, in a lecture here to- day on Moses and His Times
 Recent discoveries by archaeologists, Prof Cobern declared have confirmed the Biblical account of Moses.
 Many of the laws of Moses are cop ies of more ancient laws,'' he said, but the nucleus of his law was so valuable that round it have been built the laws of the civilized world today. One of the old Mosaic laws fixed the salary of surgeon. If he succeeded in an op- eration he received a certain sum; if he failed his right arm was cut off Un- der the same law, the speaker said, a contractor was put to death if build ing he had constructed fell and killed someone. If burglary were committed in a town. the mayor and council were held responsible.
 The. doctors of the day were as wise as ours said Prof Cobern. They wrote their prescriptions in ancient tongue. that nobody else could under stand. I've seen prescriptions for making the hair grow. They were printed on papyrrls. and the fact that it was a good one was proved by a note written beside it in another hand: Tt does the work, too"

COUNT OKUMA DENIES JAPAN IS INFRINGING

Japanese Premier Tells American People His Country Has No De sire to Secure a Monopoly
 Over China

New York, April 7.--'.rhe Independent has received from Count okuma, the Japanese premier. the following message to the American people;'
 "Tolio, April s.-The uneasiness and suspicion in the United States in con nection with Japan's negotiations at Picking are based on misunderstanding and transformation scattered broadca st by interested mischief makers.
 When the negotiations are disclosed it will be found
 That Japan has not infrnged the rights of other nations.
 That Japan has adhered strictly to the principle of equal opportunity.
 That Japan is not attempting 10 secure a monopoly over China.
 That Japan is not attempting to create protectorate over China.
 That Japan is not seeking to secure in China any advantage which does not ac cord with the Anglo-Japanese alliance or with any treaties or understandings with the United States.
 We have fully informed the United States and other interested powers as to Japan's purposes.
 I've believe that they are satisfied.
 "The negotiations between Japan and China are nearing a satisfactory conclu- sion.
 T am now willing to state publicly through The Independent that Japan is quite confident of the recttude and good faith of her position.
 Japan is merely seeking to settle out standing troublesome questions in a way looking toward permanent peace and good understanding.
