INDICTMENT OF BOOZE.
(By JUDGE GEMMIL, of the Municipal
Court of Chicago.)
I have observed that every bandit
crew that goes forth to murder starts
from a saloon; that every %panderer
has his rendezvous in a grogshop;
that every den of thieves makes its
victims drunk before 1t robs them;
that every house of prostitution has
its bar or is in partnership with
booze; that every gambling den either
is in a saloon or sustains a close re
%lationship with one; that the pick.
pocket trust" is housed in a saloon;
that the "pay-off joint" for the crook
and the crooked policeman is in a
saloon; that the professional bonds.
men and character witnesses for
thieves and holdup men + saloon.
keepers or bartenders.
Booze has caused 200, 900 divorces
in the United States in the last TWEEN
ty years, and adds $4,000 more to this
number every year. 1t divides more
homes, fills more jails and empties
more churches than all other infiu.
ences combined.
Judges, legislators, mayors, gov.
ernors and even presidents sit dumb
or quail in the presence of this mon
ster, which enters millions of homes
and leaves them d~esolate.
Booze never built a park, a play
ground, a school or a church, but Is
the enemy of them all.
War may be hell, but where it Stays
it's thousands booze destroys it's tens
of thousands.

TRAVELLING SALESMAN WON.

If you do not believe in the efficacy
and benefits of prohibition take a trip
through the state of Kansas and you
will experience a change of mind. At
least, that is what happened to a
travelling salesman, G. N. Mahon by
name, who lives in South Carolina.
Mr.. Mahon was a bitter opponent of
prohibition because he believed it
was injurious to business. After max
ing a trip through Kansas he admitted
he was converted. 1.-THE facts" he
said, ARE so different from the re-
ports that have been sent out by the
brewers. I have found business splen-
did in this state. I find a rustling
and a progressive people, and the
sight of towns without saloons Is an
inspiration. / am going right back
home and take the stump for prohibit
ton and it's strict enforcement, and
I am going to tell the folks there the
truth about Kansas"

ANOTHER BLOW FOR ALCOHOL.

Employees of the Anaconda Mining
company have been given this warn
ing in a bulletin posted by the com.
pany:
Never go to work after drinking
liquor, and if you must drink, stay
home. Experience has proved that a
great many accidents are caused from
drinking intoxicating liquors. 1t will
be remembered that from September
1, 1914, to September IA, all saloons
In Butte were closed; that from Sep
TENDER IA to September "a they were
open only from s o'clock in the morn.
ing to Z o'clock at night, and that for
the remainder of the month they we're
open only from 7 o'clock in the morn
ing to 10 o'clock at night. The acct
dent records of the Anaconda Copper
Mining company show the following
significant figures: Number of acct

MRS. BARRECK DEFEATS
FORMER HUSBAND

Eugene Barreck, of Pleasantville,
met Mrs. Augusta Barreck in District
Court. The latter was granted a de-
cree of divorce recently: 1t was tnelr
first meeting in public since the decree
had been handed down.
Mrs. Barreck was successful in her
claim that she was the owner of a
house in Pl~easantville rented to Will
bert A. Speese. Her divorced hus-
band sought to collect the rents from
the property on the ground that the
lease for the premises was executed
by him and not Mrs. Barreck. Speese
rented the property when the Bar
recks were husband and wife.
After she had instituted suit for di-
vorce Mrs. Barreck said she called up
on Speese and had the lease renewed
with herself as lessor. When the new
lease was presented in evidence before
Judge Smathers, the Attorney for the
plaintiff consented to a voluntary non
suit.

FOR COOLING PASTRY
Device That Should Be in Use in
Every Kitchen.
Calls for Little Expenditure of Money
and Is Simple in Construction
Of Wire Netting and Empty
Cotton Spools.

A cake and pastry cooler Is an alb
solute necessity if confectionery is to
be at its best. Many a batch Of cakes
and pastry has been ruined through
not being cooled properly; pastry goes
sad and cakes sodden. When cakes
come from the oven they should be
placed on a wire tray; thus the steam
evaporates and does not re-enter the
cake, and the cooling down is a grad
ual process; extremes Of cold or heat
spoil the best-made CONNECTIONS. A
wire tray is quite an item to buy, but
n can easily be made at home at
practically no cost at all. All that Is
required is a pice of fine wire netting,
in size about IA inches by 10 inches,
and some empty cotton reels. The
tray will be all the firmer if four
strips of thin wood bind its edges, that
is, wrap the edges of the wire on thin
pieces of stick the same length as the
sides and secure with a nail here and
there; this will do away with any
fear of wire projecting; If the sticks
are not used, the ends of wire that are
loose should be carefully nipped or
entwined. The tray must stand at a
little height. For this purpose four
empty cotton reels are excellent as
feet; choose the reels all of one size,
and black ones would make a heater
job. Simply tack the wire tray on to
the bobbins, a bobbin to be at each
corner; greater strength is given to
the tray if a bobbin is also placed in
the center of each of the longest
sides. These trays are splendid and
answer just as well as an expensive
bought one. Be sure to see that the
wire netting used is we'll scrubbed
and cleaned before it is used. Then

PEOPLE BUYING M

(By w. G. HOUCHINS, West Virginia
Real Estate Dealer.)
Being a real estate man, l am in a
position to know whether or not the
sale of whisky affects the growth of
the business of the city. Prior to u
campaign of 1912, the whisky inter.
ests claimed that III storerooms
would be vacant, that hundreds of u
dwelling houses would be tenantless,
and that real estate in general would
suffer great depreciation. On the con-
trary, l find that the storerooms and
dwelling houses are now all occupied
and that there are hundreds of appli
cants for houses whose wants cannot
be supplied at the present time. ]

of depression in business | am selling
homes to men whom l have known for
a number Of years, and who r not

two or three years ago. These men
are not investing in homes money
which was saved by them when times

cash payments, and seem willing to
assume the obligation of large month,

will induce the owner to sell.

CONTRACTOR HAMPTON IN
MOTOR COLLISION,

J. G. Hampton, of Atlantic City,
who has a summer residence on Ire
land avenue, Mortified, met with a
painful accident while riding across
the Meadow Boulevard on a motor
cycle, together with his two sons, aged
about 20 and 10, Monday afternoon.
They were rounding the bend at
Main street, when an automobile
struck their machine. Hampton was
brought to the Office of a local phvsi-
clan with his ankle and nose broken
and a bad cut on one hand. The old
er boy had his ankle badly sprained,
while the younger one escaped with a
few bruises.

Pretty Parasoi.

One Of the pretty parasols now in
evidence shows a quaint checked Dor
der in deep blue and malachite green
crossing each other with very little
white ground showing-the rest of
the parasol being of black tulle. A
quaint little toque has a loose failie
crown and deep falling fiat tassel of
silk in these combined shades Of blue
and green, and a twisted, almost a
turban-like border of velvet en- suite.
A charmingly draped sash of black
faille piped with blue. with big mala-
chite buttons, carries out the same
scheme.

BY GEORGE. R. HOLMES.

It is, OF should be, hats on to Bill
Donovan. He's made good. Bill
isn't going to give New York a PEN
nant this year-he may not even
bring his .Yanks under the wire In
the first division, but the big fellow
has nevertheless delivered and he
should be handed his roses now be-
fore the heat of the Hot Stove League
shrivels his prowess. ~;
The Yanks have been lettering coy
Ely around the first division all season,
which is q thing SO utterly new for
Gotham fans that they even now can
hardly realize it. Under the cid
Farrell-Dvery regime, with it's end
less accession Of managers, the High
landers were the Belgium of Ban
Johnson's league. Some of the best
managers in the business-George
Stoval, Frank Chance, Hal Chase,
Harry Wolverton-they all took a
shot at it with the same luck. - :
Bill Donovan took hold Of a sorry
looking squad-one that had finished
a poor seventh the year before. Fer
a while the Yanks set the pace in the
American league, which was quite 4
feat considering the class showed by
several other clubs. The inevitable
drop came, but it wasn't SO pro-
nounced as in former years. Some
how the: Yanks hit the top Of the
second division and fingered there
without going on down. And the
Yanks have been doing something
this season that even the oldest in.
habitant cannot remember their do
ing before-they've been winning
games in the ninth inning. They've
got: that old fighting spirit that
doesn't crumble when they come up
in the last inning with, a. two.r,in
lead. staring them in the face.
Bill vowed when he took hold of
the club that he'd have harmony. He
has, at least SO far as is known. He's
weeded out the trouble makers and
the moss-backs, and he's going into
the 1916:race with team of young
players that even Connie Mack might
envy. Al few veterans: remain, OF
course, principally Roy Hartzell and
Roger Peckinpaugh, but they're de-
livering good brand of baseball. In
cidentally; Bill Donovan shattered
several precedents when he proceed
ed to get along with Roger Peckin-
paugh, a player who had managed tho
club before him. The archives Of
:baseball's history are filled. with
cases OF. trouble following q reduc:
tion in. the ranks, but Bill and Peck
seem to work together like 9 team Of
thoroughbreds. -. -:
The team: today stands far ahead
Of the 1914 in most ways, The club
is harmonious, it: has twice as many
extra base hits now as it had at the
close Of the last season and it has the
spirit that makes: a winner
There has been constant stream
of talent through the Polo Grounds
the last few weeks. And more are
on the way. Rupert and Huston
are combing the tall grass for young
sters, where Comiskey is buying his
players already put up in. packages
with the net playing ability stamped
on it. :.,-,
. The Yanks may not win pennant
next year, but If they hang together
and Bill Donovan remains, they're 60
ing to be heard from in 1917.
