use the highest degree of caution in
preventing Injuries to passengers from
all sources, and said

has been said, an insurer of their safety

and II is not called upon under ordinary
circumstances To expect hat one pas

or sport with another such conduct Will
result in injury to one of them. Bat
where the circumstances and surround
ings, conduct, speech or manner Of
one passenger toward another is such
that violence or harm is likely to result,

such circumstances and conduct, and has
the opportunity to take measures to pre-
vent the threatened violence, then II
becomes its duty To protect the threat

sible to agree in this diagnosis of
present-day sentiment. Decidedly,
observing from this nearness, we
should say that the tendency in Fed
eral quarters at least was away from
the appointive method and the life
term. Right or wrong, that conclu-
sion seems fully sustained by the
analytical criticism of the judicial
system that has been going on in
recent years. 1t has been strength
ened by the developments that have
marked some recent impeachment
trials, and some Investigations that
did not come to impeachment though
they did develop very unsatisfactory
aspects of the present system.
The short ballot idea applied to the
judges at least has the charm of
novelty, as put forth by the New
Workers.. 1t seems curious, however
to repose in a chief justice who is
elected for only short term, the
power to name an entire bench for
life terms. The chief justice might
be defeated at the polls because of
disaffection with his appointments; |;
but the appointees would have to be
convicted of misconduct before they
could be removed. 1t is not apparent
what benefit the public would get out
of defeating highly efficient chief
justice merely because he had made
the mistake Of appointing some un-
satisfactory associates; the unsatis-
factory associates being secure in
their tenure save only the remote
possibility of impeachment.

sure east and west can produce, is
yet matter of speculation. The Ger
mans are outside their own territory
in the west; for the greater part,
also outside of it in the east. Forced
back upon their own soil, they will
have greater advantages than ever
before. The task of the .allies in
France and Belgium is to infiict a
crushing defeat on the Germans
while they are yet on French and
Belgian ground, or else to recog-
nize that crushing defeat will prob!
ably never be possible. Likewise the
Russians, in the east, must deal q
final blow to the Germans in Po-
land, or not at all; for as soon as
the Germans fall back to within the
radius of their military railroad sys-
tenn, they have advantages that
simply cannot be matched by the
Russians. The chance of a crushing
defeat-decisive enough to count as
Sedan, and bring Germany to peace
negotiations-is very poor on either
front. Therefore the alternative OF
a long, grueling war of exhaustion
seems to be ahead.

RULE 45"

Resistance to the progress of wom-
en- is a losing and profitless fight,
Denial to them Of equality on basis
Of merit Ia wrong. Discrimination
against those who perpetuate the
race cannot be excused. There was
a time when men thought the only
place for women was the homer and
that idea still prevails with ven
geance in some parts of the Orient
But with us the emancipation Of
women is a fact. 1t only remains to
give them the vote and to brush
from our minds the dusty prejudices
against their participation in affairs
The Board of Education has been
petitioned to repeal Rule 45, which
automatically sewers a woman from
her position as teacher in the public
schools when she marries. The the.
ory in support Of the rule is that
when a woman marries her interest
in her home preponderates to such
a degree that her efficiency is dimin.
ished. Experience would seem to in.
dicate that instead of decreasing her
qualifications, married life enhances
the value of the teacher. The best
judges Of results are the mothers OF
the children attending school, and the
fact that wornen's organizations
generally are opposed to Rule 45 il
a sound reason why it should be
abolished.
Another reason for resembling the
rule is that it operates unfairly
Efficiency and merit should deter
mine whether a woman is fitted t.
teach, just as in the instance of men
If she is fitted, no artificial devic.
should be allowed to deprive her ,o1
the privilege.
But the best reason, and the on,
appealing most to common sense Il
that marriage, the most sacred ant
necessary institution we have, shoult
not be discouraged. Rule as penal

not incorporated-until even all the
standing room was taken and more
than 100 auditors had been crowded on
the stage at the National yesterday
afternoon.
Seldom have these admirers had A
better reward. John Mccormack sang
a full quota of the Irish songs, showed
that his fluent narrative style easily
could be applied to more pretentious
compositions, and generously rewarded
the faithful with nine encores, at the
rate of two encores to some numbers.
Donald McBeath. the young violinist,
did more than fill the gaps between
the vocalist's numbers. He made a dis
| tinctly favorable impression and &C
| complished the difficult task of divert
ing the attention of those who came
| primarily to hear Mccormack sing to
his sympathetic Interpretation of the
prize song from Die Meistersinger, "
and the Mendelssohn Songs without
Words" and a scherzo of "Bitters-
dorf." For encores he gave the lifting
swing song of Ethel Barnes. the In
dian Lament" and the less well-known
'WlegenNed, OF MAX Reyes.
Mr.. McCormack's friends have been
disappointed at his inclusion of such
numbers as those from Beethoven's
''Engedi," and the Shubert AVE Maria, >
and Schumann's SINGERS Consolation
But after he had given these songs In
English. with the same delicate ad-
justment of word to rhythm, of ex-
preston to melody, that characterizes
his folk song renditions, the audience
| demanded more songs of the same sort
Edwin Schneider. at the plano. won
| double laurels. His accompaniments
| were delightful and his own compost
| ton. when the Dew Is Falling was
sung by Mr.. Mccormack with char
| acteristic feeling and fervor.
In one group of Irish songs alone the
| audience found sufficient reward These
| included THE Enchanted Valley" The
Ballynure Ballad" "Reynardine," and
THE Snowy Breasted Pearl" sung by
| request. And the program was rounded
| out by Schwab's "Serenade," Bath S
! Before the Dawn" and Coleridge-Tay

The highest compliment paid the
singer was the enthusiasm at the an
nouncement that he will return on Fri
! day evening of next week for a pro-
gram of ballads.

Attorney James w. Osborne, noted
criminal lawyer, for $4,000 for breach of
an alleged marriage promise, occupied
police and Federal authorities today.
Miss Tanzer was arralgned in police
court today charged by the Federal
authorities with using the malls to de-

was no mistake of identity on Miss Tan

of the relations complained of by the
young woman.

Tanner, returned to Boston after ex-
Culpating Attorney Osborne, and pro-
ducing an alleged letter from Miss Tan
zer, filled with endearing terms, simi-
lar to the letters received by the at
torney.
The girl was arrested in the office of
her counsel, Slade & Slade, 200 Broad
way.
Miss Tanzer described herself as un-
married. twenty-three years old, and
said that she was born In America, and
that her father was q German. She was
dressed becomingly In tailored suit
and modish black hat.
oliver Osborne went to the office Of
Osborne, Lamb & Garvin, and told Of
his alleged relations with the girl.
I'm the Osborne that's been mixed up
with Rae Tanzer,' the visitor told
Lamb, the lawyer related. I'm Oliver
Osborne, mechanical engineer. of Bos-
ton, and think it's only right that Mr..
Osborne should be absolved of the whole
affair"
James w. Osborne and oliver Osborne
left the office arm in arm and went TO
the Sherman Square Hotel, where the
former assistant district attorney and
his family live. After seeing Mrs. sOs-
borne the man returned with the lawyer
to his office. where they remained until
almost O'Clock.
The Boston man asserted that he met
the girl by chance in the street some
time ago, and that since then they had
been intimate friends. He had visited
her home in the Bronx, he said. Os-
borne asserts that at no time had he
misrepresented himself to the girl. He
insists that she at no time confused him
with James w. Osborne, and asserts
that he never promised to wed her.
