Queenstown, May 5.-Mrs. M. N.
Pappadopoulo of Athens, Greece,
faced death in the sea for more than
an hour. An expert swimmer, she
was totally exhausted when landed
here. On the rescue tug she had
been given a sailors sweater and
trousers to replace her wet clothing.
Her husband, whom she tried vainly
to save, probably was lost.

New York.-There was a general
collapse of the stock market yester-

Bethlehem Steel, which had attained
a new high record of 159, declined to

President Wilson must be overjoy-

answer has Just been given by Pro-

Professor Johnson has carefully
studied data, secured by visits 10 656
farmers, 554 of whom had only rural
school education, while the remain
der and secured more or less addition
al training. While he recognizes the
fact that this additional training is
not solely responsible for the better
showing made by the better educated
man. there Is every reason TO believe
that their additional education has
been very valuable investment
from the standpoint of the pocket
book as well as that of social service.
which Is not so easily measured.
The better trained men secured
average labor incomes OF S655 a year
or within 500 of twice as much as
those who had only district school
educations. This labor income is the

administration as such, and there is
little wish to make the experiment.
AT the close of last year the Treas
ury estimated that customs receipts
for the fiscal year 1915. which ended
June 80 last, would be $220,000, 900.
II was admitted that this estimate
was vague because the war has so
greatly interfered with normal con-
ditions. At any rate the estimate
proved rather bad. for the customs
receipts for the year produced only
$209 900, 900. as against s292.000,-
900 for the preceding year. Demo-
Gratis now insist that IL there had
been no war their fiscal problem
would have been easy, for they say
that IL customs revenues had been
held up to ante-bellum figures, there
would be no trouble today. On the
other hand. Republicans say that a
great volume of imports was held
back when it became certain that
the Democrats were going to revise
the tariff downward. aud that these
rushing in after the law took effect
increased customs receipts above the
normal that could be expected under
the Underwood act. Therefore. in
the second year of that laws effect
i,eness there would have beer a
slump.
AT any rate, the Democratic re;.
enue measures failed to bring in as
much cash as was expected. The
customs receipts fell in the 1915 fs-
cal year from 100000 to $685.
100000. The treasury estimates in
other regards proved pretty accurate.
Thus the ordinary internal revenue
for the 1915 fiscal year was estimat-
ed as s3O5.OO0. 900; it PANIED out
1895. 900, 900. The income tax was
estimated at $50. 200. 900 and turned
out S7S.S2S.O00. Miscellaneous rev.
enues were estimated az $4,000, 900.
they produced S62.215,000.
Going back to a comparison of full
years. it is found that in the year
ended June so, 1914. the govern
ment's receipts. aside from the Post
office Department. were S734,0OO.-
900. while a year later they fell to

She planned all kinds Of reprisals
upon the unfortunate people she was
going among She would be so rude
to them and so unbearable that they
would be glad to send her back on the
next boat She schemed out her whole
plan of action. She would contradict
and disobey and berate and belittle
to her, and nothing she would do or
say would be right to them. She took
infinite pleasure in her plan of cam
paign. Then. when she was enjoying
the pleasure Of such resentful dreams.
she would think of heEnfather waiting
for news of her, Of his pride in her. Of
how much he wanted her to succeed.
She would realize how much the part
ing meant to him, and all her little
plots would tumble down, and she
would resolve to try to please her re-
lations, learn all she could, succeed be-
yond all expression and either go back
to America prosperous or send for her
father to join her in England All her
dreams had her father either centrif-
ugally or centripetally beating through
them.
She refused all advances of friendship
aboard ship. No one dared speak to
her. She wanted to be alone in her sor-
row. She and Michael would romp on
the lower deck by favor of one Of the
seamen. who would keep sharp look
out for officers.
This seaman-O'Farrell by name

and did many little kindly. gracious
acts to minister to the comfort Of both
Of them. He warned her that they
would not let Michael go with her from
the dock until he had first been quaran.
tined. This hurt Peg more than any
thing could. She burst into tears. To
have Michael taken from >her would be
the last misfortune. She would, in
deed. be alone in that strange country
She was inconsolable
O'Farrell at last took it on himself
to get the dog ashore. He would wrap
him up in some sailcloths. and then
he would carry Michael outside the
gates when the customs authorities
had examined her few belongings.
When they reached Liverpool O'Far-
rell was as good as his word. though
many were the anxious moments they
had as one or other of the customs
officers would eye the suspicious pack

der his arm.

in the suffrage movement is Mrs.
Grace Wilbur Trout of Chicago, who

of Illinois to victory in their campaign
for the vote. She is one of the most

president of the Illinois Equal Suf-

ISOLATION has been by no means di-
minished since the granting OF the
franchise, for the organization has
courageously faced the problem of or
ganizing and educating the women vOt-

to teach them to realize their civic du-
ties and responsibilities and to show
them what can be accomplished by in
telligent and conscientious citizens
who have the ballot This work is en-
