NATURAL MEANS OF DEFE",SE
Possibility That Another Generation of Fighters May Utilize Their
 Whskers.

Here is war comment from George w. Monroe, the comedian:
 The Russian army has one advan- tage over all other armies, and that is whiskers. It has an entanglement of whiskers that nothing can penetrate not even lyddite, shrapnel or slugs A Russian soldiers whiskers are not the flossy kind that toss around with every passing gale. They are so dura- ble that when he falls on them he does not even bend them he drives them into the ground. The only time Rus sian soldier is in danger is when he turns the back of his head to the en- emy. The other armies may have the best tactics, armament, discipline, spirit and patriotism, but the Russian army has the chilled-steel whiskers.
 The most difficult job Red Cross nurse has to perform, after the Rus sian army has finished an engage ment, is to comb the bullets and shells out of the soldiers whiskers.
 Fifty years from now, when the next great war is fought, it will not be a question of rapid-fring, long-range guns; it will be a question of whis- kers. The world will ask which army has the best whiskers. Whiskers will decide the battle. Nations will no longer waste money in buying big guns and testing them. They will grow whiskers for national defense and they will te.' an army's efficiency by drawing up a company on the parade grounds and allowing husky coal heaver to go down the line and hit each soldier in the face with an ax. Whiskers that won't make the ax bounce will be sent to the rear as un- fit for the firing line.

disturbance. must be armed with the power to undertake the house -cleaning. and for while must do work that would not be pretty As far as he was persohally concerned, a pardon after .ilal would be matter of purely aca- oemlc interest. He could not expect to survive trial. He was at present aple to hold the Souths in leash. If the governor was not of that mind he was now ready to surrender himself and permit matters to take their course.
 And now, MT. South," suggested the governor, after a half-hour of ab- sorDed listening, there is one point you have overlooked. Since in the end the whole thing comes back to the ex- erclse of the pardoning power, it s alter all the crux of the situation. You may be able to render such services as those for which you volunteer. Let us TOT the moment assume that to be true You have not yet told me a very im- portant thing. Did you or did you not kill Purvy and Hollis?"
 T killed dollis," said Samson. as though he were answering a question as to the time of day, and did not kill Purvy."
 Kindly, suggested the governor, give me the full particulars of that affair"
 The two were still closeted when second visitor called and was told that his excellency could not be disturbed. The second visitor, however, was so in- slstent that the secretary finally con- sented to take in the card. After a glance at it his chief ordered admis- sion.
 The door opened and Captain Cal lomb entered
 lie was now in civilian clothes, with portentous news written on his face. He paused in annoyance at the sight of second figure standing with back turned at the window. Then Samson wheeled and the two men rec. ognized each other. They had met be. fore only when one was in olive drab; the other in jeans and butternut At recognition Callomb's face fell and grew troubled
 You here, South!" he exclaimed. T thought you promised me that I shouldn't find you. God knows I didn't want to meet you"
 Nor l you," Samson spoke slowly. T supposed you'd be raking the hills"
 Neither of them was for the moment paying the least attention to the gov ernor, who stood quietly looking on.
 q sent Merriweather out there," explained Callomb, impatiently. "I wanted to come here before it was too late. God knows, South, l wouldn't have had this meet ing occur for anything under heaven. It leaves me no choice. You are indicted on two counts, each charg- ing you with murder" The officer took a step toward the center of the room. His face was weary, and his eyes wore the deep disgust and fatigue that come from the necessity of performing a hard duty.
 You are under arrest" he added quietly, but his composure broke as he stormed. Now, by God. I've got to take you back and let them murder you, and you're the man who might have been useful to the state"

A city man once had occasion to visit a farmer on business, and re- mained for dinner. The piece de re- sistance was literally a very tough chicken.

JEWS URGE VETO
OF BIBLE BILL
RabbiS Told School Meas
ure Will Pass-ReSt Hope
with Whitman.

Tho Grcincr-Tallctt bill, requiring
the reading Of at least ten verses Of
'hc Bible daily in all public schools,
will become law unless Governor Whit
man vetoes il, according to informa-
ton that reached prominent Jews in
the city yesterday. Convinced that
the Senate and the Assembly will pass
the measure, increased efforts are be-
ing made TO obtain the Governors
veto.
Rabbi Rudolph Grossman, president
of the New York Board Of Jewish Min
listers, has Gale meeting at Temple
Emanuel to-day, wnen all the rabbis
in New York will join in resolutions
dcnouncing the bill. Rabbi NJ. II, Har-
ris, president Of the Eastern Council
Of Reform Rabbis, has arranged for the
holding Of a conference this week at
which similar resolutions will be
adopted.
In denouncing the bill Rabbi Gross
man said yesterday:
1--WE have sent TO Albany a protest
against the bill in the name Of the
New York Board Of Jewish Ministers
and also in the name of the Eastern
Council of Reform Rabbits. We are abb
solutcly opposed 10 a compulsory read
ing Of the Bible in the public schools.
You cannot discriminate between the
technical and scctarian passages IN the
Bible. You cannot draw the line
Senator Greiner has made statements
to the effect that State Commissioner
of Education Finley was in favor of the
bill. John II. Finnegan, First Assistant
Commissioner Of Education, denies
that the department is in favor of the
measure. lie added that local educa-
ton boards throughout the state are
opposed TO the bill.
Assemblyman Scharlin, of the sth
District, which takes in the largest
Jewish section in the city, called the
bill an Outrage against the Constitu-
tional rights of the citizens of the
state" He said: at is an opening
attempt to bring in religion into the
public schools. We cannot allow the
reading of the Bible TO be trusted 60
men of narrow minds"

FAIR WILL TANCLE
IN COURT AGAIN
Kin of Wife Attack Man
Made Law; Ask Share
in S10,000,000.
JUDGE RESERVES
DECISION IN CASE
Punishment Of Plaintiffs Att0rs
ney Asked for Alleged
Contempt of Court.

MAN made law" was attacked yester-
day III the Supreme Court by Philip
Carpenter, lawyer, who argued that
the heirs of Mrs. Caroline d. Fair, OF
California, were deprived Of large
estate, because the law. contrary to
the fact, presumed that her husband,
Charles l.. Fair, survived her, following
an automobile accident in 1902, in
France, in which both were killed. The
couple died within few minutes OF
each other.
Justice Gavegan reserved decision
on a motion by Mrs. Hermann Oelr,chS
and her sister, Mrs. William X. Van
derbiIt, jr., IN connection with the
$lO.O0U,000 estate left by their brother
Charles /. Fair.
For the proper distribution of the
estate there has been a long legal
wrangle whether husband or wife was
trst TO die George and W. Letter, OF
Newark, and Mabel +. Towle, OF Com
cord, \. H.. nephews and niece OF Mrs
Fair. are trying to recover part OF the
estate.
In suing Mrs. Vanderbilt and Mrs.
Oelrichs, they allege that the will OF
Mr.. Fair was illegally probated IN
California.
The move yesterday was TO strike
out certain allegations made by the
plaintiffs, for judgment in favor OF
the defendants on the pleadings and
also for the punishment OF II. NJ. /.
Beekman, attorney Of record for the
plaintiffs, for contempt OF court for
proceeding after an order had been
issued staying further action.
Justice Gavegan said he did not be-
lieye that Mr. Beckman was in con
tempt. reserving decision on the other
motions.
Philip Carpenter. who appeared yes
terday for the suing heirs Of Mrs. Far,
said: "If there is no merit in this
suit, why did the defendants recently
give another heir-at-law who didn't get
what he thought was square deal
$4,000? The fact of the matter is
that the defendants rushed through
the settlement of the Fair estate under
the laws of California, where, under
a male made law, where two persons OF
opposite sex die as a result of the
same accident, the presumption is that
the male survived the female, thus
we see the presumption OF the male
made law contradicted by the facts"
Mr.. Carpenter said II was proved
that Mrs. Fair survived her husband
and that she inherited his property, It
being a false assumption that Mr.. FAIR
survived his wife, under which his
estate was divided among the members
Of his family.
