81 don't -ay that these investigators
did not ind some things not quite

aren't lying. What DO say S that these
incidents occur IN any place where
young folks ongrcgate. even street
cars, and they were only one 10 n
hundred compared TO what goes OF y
the ordinary commercial dance hall.
Why do ,hey pick Oh Us. the only
place in the city mat Is trying 70 im-

The strdngest thing is that Mrs.
Noskowitz is one Of our pstronesses.
She has never resigned. and has never
presented hcI criticisms of the place

Women nurse their wailing infants on
doorsteps as they chatter with neigh

Hosts of small children scampered
about the dusty pavement yesterday

games. Turning from the sunlight
into a dim entry numbered 3l9, it was
difficult for one to see a yard ahead.

ers. woman was trying to comfort
Mrs. angelo Leggio, whose husband
was condemned in General Sessions
Yesterday to die in the electric chair
for instigating the murder Of Giuseppe
Marine on April 3, 1914.
When Leggio was sentenced IN Gen
eral Sessions the strain Overcame HIM.
Tears fell fast on to his coat. In the
hallway. rs he was led to his cell, ne
met his wife, holding the baby. three
other children clinging to her skirt. As
she set eyes on him her shrieks echoed
through the whole building. Leggio
kept control Of himself until crossing
the Bridge Of Signs, when he emitted
q cry and collapsed.
It is hoped that money can be raised
TO send Mrs. LeggiO back to Italy II
her husband goes TO the chair. James
d. Mcclellan, attorney for Leggio. has
appealed. Mrs. Leggio is determined
TO fight it out, but in the mean time
the family is starving. Only the baby
gets her daily food; the faces of the
other children are pinched with nun

The Seventh inning Stretch.

1t is a simple ceremonial, but I'M
pressiVe, Ike all manifestations Of the
soul OF multitude. I need only close
my eyes to call up the picture wildly.
1t is day OF brilliant sunshine, and a
great crowd OF men Is seated In the
open air. a crowd made up Of all con-
ditions, ages. races, temperaments and
states Of mind The crowd has sat
there an hour or more, while the aft
ernOon sun has slanted deeper into the
west and the shadows have crent
across greensward and hard baked
clsy to the eastern horizon. Then. al
most with a single motion-the time
may be somewhere between 4 O'Clock
and o'ciock-this multitude Of divers
minds and tempers rises to its feet
and stands silent, while one might
count twenty perhaps. Nothing is
said No high priest intones prayer
for this vast congregation. Neverthe-
less. the impulse of 10000 hearts Is OBJ
viously focused into a single desire.
When you have counted twenty the
crowd sinks back to the benches. A
half minute at most and the rite is
over.-Simeon Strunsky In Atlantic.

The Hunter and the Wind.

In hunting against the wind in open
forests more game is passed than
many hunters would suppose. The an.
imals see the man, note that he viii
pass them and hide by getting as near
to the ground as possible. II they
scent him after he has passed they
evidently realize that the danger Is
over, though some, mostly the younger,
inexperienced animals, then sneak of.
Where game is very wild 1t is often in
such localities as l have mentioned
only possible to approach them with
the wind by outdistancing the latter,
because a big game animal at rest de-
ponds on its nose to save It from dan
ger in the direction from which the
wind comes and on its eyes to watch
the side from which 1t can get no 9TH

An officer Of a liner once remarked
that most men seemed to be as igno-
rant about the size OF the sea as they
are Of the distance between the heaT-
emily planets. Here are a few facts:
The Pacific covers 100000 miles, the
Atlantic 100000 and the Indian
ocean, Arctic and Antarctic 100000.
To stow away the contents Of the Pa
ciic it would be necessary to fill a tank
one mile long, one mile wide and one
mile deep every day for 40 years.
Put In figures the Pacific holds In
weight 9is.O0o. 900. 900, OO0, 900. 600 tons.
The Atlantic averages a depth Of not
quite three miles. Its waters weigh
325, 100000, 900. OOO. 10000 tons, and a
tank to contain it would have each Of
its sides fOrty-three miles long. The
figures Of the other oceans are in the
same startling proportions. 1t would
take all the sea water in the world
100000 years to flow over Niagara.

The old postman at Westward 10.
near Bidefond, in Devon. and the scene
of "stalky & Co." is reported in T
P.'s London Weekly as telling an in
teresting anecdote Of Rudyard Kip
ling, dating from the time when Kip
ling himself was a boy at school at
Westward Ho. 1t appears that Beck
with, the aquatic expert. came TO West
ward 10 to give an exhibition from
the pier, which was crowded with the
usual summer sightseers and & fair
sprnkling Of boys from the school
After some evolutions In the water the
swimmer commenced a series Of diving
performances. and It was after a SEN
sational dive from the top Of the pier
that the spectators were amazed to
see a chubby. stocky boy run to the
edge Of the pier and repeat the dive
with all the mannerisms Of the expert
Inquiry ELECTED the fact that the boy
was named kipllng. and 1t is by this
incident more than any other that the

Virtue Of Paanuta

The oil OF the peanut has a quieting
effect on the pneumogastric nerve, the
largest nerve supplying the stomach.
Many nervous persons who like pea
nuts and do not know why, like them
for this reason They quiet the nerves
OF the stomach. These persons should
eat few fresh roasted peanuts after
each hearty meal, as many nervous
conditions are due to an irritation Of
the pneumogastric nerve, and the pea
nut oil acts as a sedative to this nerve.
OF course the nuts must be crisp and
well chewed and not too many taken.
To get the best sedative effect a hand
full Of the hot peanuts should be eaten
Just before retiring. This presup-
poses that the powers of elimination
are In good repair. The peanut, a
member Of the pulse family. Is nutri-
uous and would clog the system IL
not eaten correctly, as It is almost
equal to meat-Philadelphia Ledger.

Esats of a strnna Man.

Well known in the old buffalo days
OF Saskatchewan was Joe Beaupre,
famed a thousand miles as the biggest
eater In the north. Joe was not six
feet tall, but he was a broad, deep,
thick sort Of man. with a hand Ike &
ham and a stomach like nothing else
In the world He would eat an entire
boxful OF apples at one sitting and think
nothing Of it. Once, having encounter
ed a gentleman who thought he was
some eater, Joe consumed nfC three
pounds Of bufcAlo meat In one day and
topped of with a raw turnip, a stx
pound piece Of pork. some lard and
two loaves Of bread. The best hts
competitor could do was thirty-seven
pounds OF meat Beaupre was 80 strong
be never would fight any man for fear
he should XIII him. One day, while
shedding on a narrow tran with an
obstinate horse, he became angered,
struck the horse on the head with his
fist and killed IT. he loosened the
harness and threw the dead animal on
one side Of the trail. he never really
knew how strong be was. Beaupre
died Of rheumatism while stin a young
man.-Saturday Evening Post
