was not touched, which leads Mr..
Young to believe that the work was
that of amateurs The safe contained
considerable valuable iewelry. No
money was taken It is believed that
the robbery was committed after one
o'clock, as the city marshal passed the
store at this time on his inspection
trip. and found everything as usual.
Entrance was gained through the
rear window, which was pried open,
either with a jimmy or some similar
tool. A portion Of the glass was brok-
en-, but the hole was hardly large
enough to put ones hand through.
The goods were all taken from show
cases at the front of the store.
A case of Parker fountain pens was
stolen, and the case was found in the
rear OF the store this morning, but
all the pens were taken from 1t. Th1r-

50 or over, were attached by the
thief. Other iewelry lost consisted OF
two ladies' gold watches, mans gold
watch with chain and small knife at

knives; a half dozen gold filed match
safes; several gold coat chains; five
pocket chains, and five dress chains.
The proprietor Of the. store believes
that amateurs did the work, or other
wise the safe would have been blown.
and that goods would not have been
taken from the front windows.
The store is insured in mutual

Ry DOROTHY DIX

One of the most interesting phrases
of the matrimonial problem, and one
that no young couple in love ever
stops to consider. is the influence that
husband and wife have upon each
others character and destiny. This is
Aaving out of the discussion all con-
sIderation of whether they will be con-
genial or not or make each other
happy or miserable. and dealing only
with the bare fact of whether the
stronger one will be able to lift the
weaker one up, or the weaker will
have dead weight enough to pull the
higher down.
To a degree this question is a dis
tinctly American one. since in other
countries the man automatically set
ties the position of the family socially
and lifts his wife to his rank. The bar
maid, or the chorus girl, who marries
an English duke becomes officially at
once en- aristocrat, entitled to prece-
dence even over gentlewomeu who
have in their veins the blood of a
thousand knights and hundred gen.
erations of culture.
But in this he is mistaken. She will
not fit in; she will go back to her
own, and he will find before he knows
1t that he has followed her. Socially
the wife makes the position, and what
she is the husband becomes also.
Intellectually a woman has far
greater influence over a husband than
he has over her. because the woman
makes the atmosphere OF the home.
with hooks. papers, pictures, music,
all the refinements of life, and she
draws about her educated people, and

himself he unconsciously acquires a
certain relish from his home life.

Opposes Elimination
of State Regulation
of Commerce Matters

San Francisco, oct. IL. - At the
twenty-seventh annual convention OF
the National Association of Railway
Commissioners in this city to-day,
Clifford Thorne, president of the Ma
tional Association of Railway Com
missioners, made an address on THE
Great American Experiment" in which
he discussed the question of the
elimination of state regulation of
commerce, and strongly opposed the
movement in favor of this elimina-
ton. He based his arguments on
the success of the combined ma
tional and State authority which has
been the fundamental basis on which
the American government has rested
since the constitution was adopted.
He cited instances in which the states
have originated progressive steps in the
matter of railroad legislation and de-
clared that the removal of State
control in the matter of commerce
would not solve the problem. He
claimed that state government is
closer to the local needs and traffic
conditions than the national govern
ment and closed with the staten ent
that the makers of government must
set as their goal. not the creation of

On the other hand, no matter how

sheer despair, he will adopt his con-

Why woman should influence her
husband morally more than he does
her is inexplicable but 1t is true.
When g broad, generous-minded man
marries q stingy and niggardly wom-
an. he will narrow down to her far
oftener than she will broaden out to
him. If refined man marrtes q
coarse and vulgar woman, what is
fine within him will grew coarse to
sympathize with clay far oftener than
she will spiritualize to meet him. 1t
is one of the pathetic weaknesses of
human nature that evil rules oftener
than good, and that the nobler of a
married couple Is the one to give in.
It is often remarked that people
who have been married a long time
come to look like each other physical
ly, and 1t is even more true that they
come to be like each other spiritually.
1t is one of mans illusions that he will
be able to make over the woman he
