The StenogfaphiC Art Has Again
Been ReYoIutionized By Henry
Edward Byrne, President Of The
Tyler, Texas.

IbiOtJ tCAoo'
Some seventeen years ago, he in.
vented system of Shorthand known
as the Byrne Simplitied. This system
possessed such wonderful advantages
that seven large editions of the book
have been printed and there are now
over 10000 writers of this famous syS.
TEN, The system was controlled in
this section by the Tyler Commercial
college and it did much toward max.
ing it the largest business training
in America. Recently Prof Byrne ap.
piled the principles of this Shorthand
system to the typewriter using the
regular typewriter that is found in
the ordinary business office, using the
same type, but printing the characters
in plain type instead of using crooked
marks made with the pencil. This
system is called Stenotypewriting
The Byrne Simplified Shorthand was
mastered in half the time required of
other systems. and StenotypeWriting
is mastered in almost a month less
time than the Byrne Shorthand. 1t
can be written at higher rate of
speed than shorthand, can be read like
print becauS it is print and is so simple
that a child can learn it so thorough
and complete that it will record any.
thing in the English language. 1t is
absolutely legible; there is no guess
work in the reading. 1t is capable of
taking the most rapid speakers: it is
truly the Stenographic marvel of the
age. 1t not only means a saving of
much time and expense to those who
desire to become efficient Stenograph.
erS, but it means better stenographic
service for the business office. The
stenographer does not have to fool
with tablet, pencil or crooked marks,
but simply take the dictation on any
ordinary typewriter and when the die.
tation is f1niShd he begins tranScribing
on the machine without removing the
hands from the board except to change
the paper.
The Tyler Commercial College will
control the teaching Of Stenotypewrit.
ing in this section as it has the Byrne
Simplified Shorthand. Young people
desiring to make expert office assiS.
tants or to prepare to 60 into business
for themselves, should write for cata.
logue OF the Tyler Commercial College,
read of the ADVANCES they offer to
energetic young people who desire to
become thoroughly qualified as busy

Sister of Showman's s Widow Determined to Share
 Equally Tn Rich Estate

News of a motion filed before Judge Keough of the supreme court of the state of New York asking that the verdict of that court in the now fa- nous Bailey will case be set aside as being against the weight of evidence presented reached this city today
 The motion was filed by attorneys for Mrs. Anna. I. Hutchinson, in White Plains, New York, yesterday and fol- lows a, verdict handed down in the SUI prenle court there last NoVenn Der when the case was similarly reopened by those oposing her in 8 previous trial that had resulted in her flavor.
 Charles Hutchinson, treasurer of the Bar1lun & Bailey circus, and a son of Mrs Anna Hutchinson, today stated that the case will be fought to a finish and that should the motion not be granted the case would then go to the appellate division of the supreme court for a hearing
 The Bailey will has been in Htiga- tion for about two years. Mrs. Bailey, widow of the great snowman, left most of her estate to her brothers, Joseph T. and Theodore MacCaddon, and to one sister, Mrs. Harper. To her sister Mrs. Hutchinson, she left but an an nuity of $10,000 as against nearly one Gnilone dollars to each of the others. It was alleged by Mrs. Hutchinson that undue influence was used against her by one of the brothers.

EGAN RETIcENT ON
 WILLIAMS ARREST:
 HOW II WAS MADE
Farmland Who Chummed With One of Prisoners Tn
 Reality Was Detective

Hartford, Jan. l6=state Police man Robert T. Hurley returned to his home in this city last night and irn- naediately reported to Superintendent T. F Egan- The superintendent was seen after his interview with MT. sHurle& He refused to tell the evil dence on which the men are held and would not say what had been brought out by the cross-exanina ation of Williams and Pfaefflin He did say, however, that contrAdictory stor- ies had been told.
 He admitted that a deteetfve dis guised as farm hand had .tcIunn- med with Pfaeff1in, but declined fo say who the detective had been. In stead of this detective being in inti- mate touch with PfaeffIin for a week as the Winsted information said, he declared that the defective had been a boon coInpanionSof PfaeffIirl for a1- most q month
 Superintendent Egan said that Ia. number of people had seen two. sls- poets after the murder, one of whom had been a tall man and the other a short They had been seen by a mum Der of persons on the morning after the crime in a Torrington restaurant wh ere they had breakfast The theo1-y is that Williams and Rowe were the men. The superintendent would not
  had seen the suspects at the resta9l- rant had yet been called upon to iden- tify Williams.
 For some days the state policemen have been trying to locate Williams They knew they had PfaeffIin any time they wanted him but they did not want to arrest him until Williams had been located. They knew that Rowe was in custody in Poughkee psie and superintendent Egan teIephoned there Monday night to make suresthat there was no chance of his getting away.
 Yesterday morning Superintendent Egan again telephoned to Pough- keepsie in regard to Rowe's case and was informed by Chief of Police Mo Cabe that Rowe would be sentenced to Sing Sing within half an hour of that time.
 It is suspected that Williams was connected with a recent burglary in G1enbrook, town of Stamford. The burglars were detected while commit ting the burglary and the police fired on them while they were making their escape Williams has wound in the shoulder which looks as though he had been shot but he says he re- ceived this wound while working on an ice job, one of the men striking him there with an ice pick.
 Rowe was born in Poug1keepsie and has a bad record there. As he will be taken care of for some time the Connecticut authorities can take their leisure before serving papers in his case.
 Superintendent Egan also said that Williams had driven an ice wagon last summer. being employed by Maurice PfaeffIin, father of the young man who is under arrest. Williams says he is as railroad man. It is believed that Williams and Rowe had figured in burglarles together and that Pfaef- fin had at least had a Knowledge of these burgIaries as he was on intf- mate terms with both men and was often seen in their company.

TEACHERS NOT SATISFIED WITH
 NEW SCHEDULE
Uniform Maximum Is Aim of Association In It's Agi-
 tation of Salary Question

The members of the Teachers as. sociation will be- satisfied only when we get a general maximum salary, said Miss Mary F. MalIon, president of the association today when asked how the association members felt on the increase in salary which the board Of education voted at its last meeting. The board voted an in-' crease of $50 in the maximum salary of teachers in all grades.
 This just leaves us where we were before,' continued Miss Mal1on. There are teachers in the second, third and fourth grades who are un- derpaid. We believe that after 8 teacher has, taught a, certain number of years she should receive a max imun salary, no matter what grade she teaches in, and that all teachers after. certain number of years ex- perience should receive the same maxirnum salary.
 However the present increase means something although it is not exactly the raise that the teachers are seeking. We shall do nothing at present toward securing a general maximum but we will probably take the matter up later on. With the changes that are coming, a new su7 perintendent we may possibly get what we are after.
