CHARLTON TRIAL NUT BEFORE
 AUTUMN

ROME, May 6-Although next July will mark the elapse of five years since Porter Charlton was arrested on the charge of murdering his wife in Italy, the case, it Is learned, will not come to trial before autumn, If by then.
 His counsel, Avvocato Catapano, re- gently discussing the present delay, said:
 There are two reasons for the de- lay, the examination of the witnesses in America, and the observations which are being taken of the prison CTS mental condition, at the asylum for the insane at Como.
 AS Charlton had not the means to bring over any of his witnesses for the trial they all had to have their testimony taken at home, which was a complicated process, conducted through the departments of justice and foreign affairs, both Italian and Amer ican. If that had not been done there would have been the probability of his being judged at the assizes with out one witness for the defense pres ent.
 Instead, the testimony of the four teen witnesses in the United States will be read, the testimony being of great importance, given the defense assumed, which is the total irrespons- ibility of the accused The investi- gallons cannot be closed, and there fore be made public until the expert ments to establish whether Charlton is insane have been given in May. Thus in June, or at the latest in July the decision will be given out, so that the trial can come on in the early autumn" Avvocato Catapano, how. ever, said that this was not at all sure, as should Italy be at war the trial would scarcely take place.

SEWARD, May 3-Miss Leona Bradshaw, daughter of MT. and Mrs. T. J. Bradshaw, passed away this morning at o'clock, having succumb- ed to tubercular peronitis, from which she had suffered for some time and which necessitated an operation which was performed at Seattle by prominent physicians. but without ef- feet.
 John Gilpatrick has bonded his mines to Felix Brown, of Seattle. The property consists of seven claims.
 Dave Hathaway, the man who had the first contract for clearing the right of way for the railroad here, has returned after a long absence. It was reported some time ago that he was dead but, as Mark Twain said, the report was exaggerated.
 The case of Joanna Seiffert vs. J. B. Stull has been filed by Attorney L. V. Ray, for the plaintiff. The prop erty involved is two lots in block IA which the plaintiff alleges were bought but not delivered.
 It was a wierd exhibition of the national pastime that was staged at the Bay View Park yesterday when Hoben's Pets put crimp in the cham pionship aspirations of Ennis's Fish Grabbers. The game was replete with sensational plays, stolen bases and extra canvas clouts.
 Horace Leach. formerly we'll known resident of this city, arrived last night on the Watson from Chitina, where he has been in the hotel business.

 The pettiest thief ln the United States is now in Seward. He stole the tar paper and laths of the dog house of w. A. McNeiley last night. To do it he had to pull out the nails. The robbery was quite unnecessary as the owner would probably have let him live in the kennel if he had only | asked.
 Several people have suggested that the Gateway ought to remind the peo- pie that erowding on the wharf while steamers are docking may result in injury Without at all saying any thing about the condition of the wharf itself, 1t may be brought to memory that on several occasions accidents have caused steamers to bump into wharves and smash them. Such an accident while the wharf is crowded might have serious consequences.

PRIZE FIGHTING |S STIMULUS TO
 VAR SPIRIT

LONDON, May 6-The Wells-Moran fight at the London Opera House, in "hich Bombadier Wells, the English champion. added yet another to the dramatic defeats of his career, has started a storm of questioning as to why an able-bodied man with the mil itary title of "Bombadier" should be taking part in boxing matches in- stead of being with the British army at the front.
 "We do not wish to crlticlse Wells" " remarks the Daily Chronicle, except to say that, first, his most famous op- ponent, Carpentier, is now serving with the colors in France, and, second, it seems improper that he should re- tain a military title in the prize ring when his public performance proves that he is in fit state to go into the field"
 Wells reply came back by return mail. It was as follows: My duty is clear. must stay where I am, and think my reasons are good. Could see my way clear to go to the front I would be the lightest hearted man in England. I have been in the army, serving several years in India, and I secured my discharge to devote my self to the science of boxing, at which despite half dozen defeats, I suppose I may claim to have attained some proficiency. During the war I have boxed several times on behalf of war funds, thereby doing the little bit that lay within my power.
 Two of my brothers are at the front, and a third was the first man killed in his regiment I alone re- main at home to support my wife and | children and the other members of the family dependent upon me. If I had no ties, should be off to the front without delay"
 In this connection, several of the newspapers have renewed the agita- tion that professional boxing be sup | pressed until the end of the war. "The only prize fight worth entering at present" writes one editor, "is the | gigantic struggle in France"
 Lady Randolph Churchill, on learn. ing that considerable number of women were present at the Welis Moran fight, wrote the following statement for the papers: q should hope that women had something bet ter to do than to watch sham fight, 1 ing at this moment"
 There is plenty of opinion, howev CT, in favor of continuing the boxing matches. Eugene Corri, the referee sums up this side of the argument in the statement; Boxing is a stim ulus to the fighting spirit; nothing Is | better calculated to maintain the spir ] 1t of British pluck; boxing does not l hinder recruiting-it rather encour ages it."

Why Birds Eggs Are
Of Different C0lors

Editor OF the Times-Can you tell
me why birds eggs are OF different
colors.
II il interesting TO see how a parti-
cular kind OF bird always produces
the same kind Of color in its eggs
and In Its own feathers.
II Is not the particular kind of
food the birds feed on. nor the sur.
roundings they live in that has tn
do with the special color OF their
eggs. II IL the particular chemistry
Of the body OF the bird. The differ
ences In color depend upon the pres
ence In the different shells Of var.
ious col0ring substances.
Perhaps you could change the
shade Of the color Of hens eggs, by
food. but you will never get q hen
to lay a speckled green egg. The
color may be q little bit lighter or
perhaps = darker shade than usual.
but the color Of the shell II really
AZ special to the particular bird "A

Concrete Pavements

In Cement Concrete Pavements.
Percy n. Wilson. the author, states
that the basic principle Of the mod
ern concrete road goes back to the
ancient Roman roads in that the
latter involved the use OF puxxo-
lana. the cement used by the Ro-
mans. while Portland cement Is
used as . binder In the modern con.
crete road.
The author emphasizes the fol-
lowing - conspicuous advantages
Of the concrete road:
Absence OF mud and dust.
Roads passabls ct all seasons.
An even. but gritty. surface tex.
ture which prevents horses and cars
from slipping.
A nat crown making every foot
Of road surface available for traf.
&c.
Extreme durability. increasing
with age and exposure to the ele-
ments.
Impervious to frost and heat.
Moderate hrst cost and minimum
maintenance cost.
With the establishment Of ex.
pansion Joints at proper intervals
the cracking of concrete roads had
been practically eliminated. but
when cracks do occur they are filed
with tar and sand at small expense.

The Three-Legged Stool
~ On. FRANK CRANE
(Copyright. 1919 ~ Prank Oranol

The recent strike Of street car en-
ployes In Chicago was a. ignorant and
vicious climax ~ the European war.
It is the same stupidity that makes
war that makes strikes.
It Is the outcome Of the clash Of ego.
tisms. the egotism Of dunderhead capital
and chesty labor.
do not mean that labor organisations
are wrong, nor that capitalistic councils
are wrong. mean they are both wrong.
It is utterly impossible to carry on .
business these days, where Thousands
of human interests are affected, without
getting back to the old common virtues
Of patience, courtesy and forbearaAce.
The contending parties do not need
more laws, more police or more talk;
they need more gentlemanliness.
So long as Germany and France
own prowess and honor, trouble was sure
to come.
II all Europe had met, by its repre-
sentatives in council, and had candidly
and sincerely considered the question Of
how they could best govern for the IN
terests of all the people concerned, there
would not have been this incalculable and
uncalled for destruction.
They didn't. They preferred to strut,
to blow, to threaten. and altogether to
act like Bowery DULLES.
So il the street car companies, the
labor organizations, and the public could
get together and arrange for the man.
agement Of their service for the mutual
and fair benefit of all three parties, there
would be no strikes.
The day is past when capitalists. e.
pecially those controlling public utilities.
can do as they please with their own"
They are public servants. No house can
stand where servants rule the master.
And the American people win not toll
crate the absOlutism Of labor. They
will not endure industrial war as means
of adjusting economic relations.
Il is time the public asserted Ito
rights. For millions Of people to be de-
prived of transportation facilities and
subjected to infinite annoyance and loss,
lust because employer and employed can
not agree on profits, is absurd.
There ought to be in every community
some tribunal where all disputes between
labor and management, in public utility
could be adjudicated. And
this tribunal ought to be endowed with
effective police powers to enforce ito
DEGREES.
Strikes are the breakdown Of govern
ment.
Every strike goes back TO the In
capacity or venality of the legislature.
Government should neither be bribed
by capital nor inundated by labor.
Labor is organized to secure It's claims;
capital is organized to secure it, profts.
why cannot the city be organized %
secure the service 1t needs!
Capital, labor and the public are the
three-legged stool OF prosperity. Inc
first two legs are rather strong: IL 10
the third leg whose weakness makes the
stool upset.
