Sell Live Chicks For Easter.

New York. March 80. = The novel
though thoughtlessly cruel custom Of
giving live chicks as Easter rcmcm-
brances has found wide popularity
during the present week, hundreds Of
the fluffy little peeps being sold by
downtown dealers. The chicks for
convenience in carrying were usually
nlaced in small white boxes. in which
air holes We're punched and tied neatly
with white or lavender ribbon.
These sell at a quarter each in such
quantities that the supply in some
shops is exhausted, and new lots from
the incubators are ordered.
The practice. though unique. caused
considerable criticism because Of the
fact that the chicks We're bought large
" for the amusement of children. The
early death of tho tender gifts in the
hands of unthinking Youngsters is as
srrcl. and. though the idea in the alb
Stract is Il pretty One Il continuance of
the custom is expected to meet with
opposition from the Socie ty For the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

detail, and the evidence all points to
the guilt of the accused. The fore
man, homeward bound, assists Barbara
Frayne. a young horsewoman. and I'M
willingly listens to a declaration on the
Emory case. Barbara believes Miss
Emory to be innocent. The foreman
visits the scene Of the murder. View
Ing the home from the outside. he over
hears Madeleine Mapes, the housekeep-
or. endeavoring to persuade Betty
Field, another servant, to forget all
about a blue skirt she had seen the
former put in the furnace. At this mo-
ment Rarstow's assistant. Mr.. Hunt.
visits the women in an effort to get
them to leave the neighhorhood where
their testimony might iniure the ac-
cused. The trial opens. Lambert forces
valuable testimony from the architect
who had drawn the plans for the Shaw
house. Gilbert PRODUCES evidence that
forged Shaw checks were made out to
the order Of Alice Emory. When court
ad,journs Lambert gets a message to
call I'D 90 Po]licet and is told by Miss
Frayne that she occupied Miss Elnorys
room on the night Of the murder and
that Miss Emory was not there. Soon
thereafter Lambert is approached in
a dark lane by a man who Lambert be-
lieyes is Barstow'S assistant, Hunt, but
who calls himself Gilberts assistant
and gives the name Corning. This man
tries to worm from Lambert his reason
for desiring to leave the jury, but fails.
Lambert is warned he shouldn't cave
for Hefryville without first consulting
the judge. Lambert ignores the warn
ing and plays the part Of hero, with
Barbara a witness. by saving Miss
Mapes and Betty Field from what
looked like a runaway. The driver is
pitched off his seat and is badly hurt.
He proves to be Hunt in disguise. The
defendant is led into the court leaning
heavily on the arm Of her lawyer.
Bayne, a juror, ~characterizes it as
SHAM to Lambert. Gilbert produces
evidence to show Shaw swore he was
unmarried. Barstow and Gilbert have
many tits, and the latter has the
courtroom locked while he examines
Madeleine Mapes about the blue skirt
which Miss Emory gave her. The
testimony further duplicates Miss En-
DRY. Barstow next takes the witness
and tries to place suspicion on her. He
questions her so %viciously that Miss
Emory protests. This he ignores, and
in her anger his client rises. He at
tempts to hold her. She frees herself
and calls him a coward rs Miss Mapes
faints. Bethna Field is terror stricken
when questioned about the blue skirt,

City Official Paper
NOME, ALASKA, AUGUST ii, 1915,

Now that Secretary Lansing has an- nounced the formation of very de- finite" Mexican policy. with the help of the South American states. 1t will be interesting to watch what may be the result of n departure from the lackidasical. lly-dallying of the past several years By all odds the most distinguishing feature of the policy displayed during the years of blood shed, pillage and rapine following the abdication of Diaz has been the en- tire absence of anything even remotely suggestive of definite purpose. Dur ing all of the long period following the nnseating of the stern, old autocrat, the attitude of the administration has resembled nothing so much as that displayed by fondly doting mothers who are forever threatening to lick their impish Willes into obedience. without even the remotest intention of so doing. Admonitions. remonstranees and threats have been hurled at the heads of the eontending factions in countless profusion between periods of watchful waiting and all have been de- void of definite result in so far as set
 ting the troubles of Mexico is
 concerned. Admonitions and remon-
 strances have proven equally as inef-
 fective in procuring results as the most somnolent periods of the so-call- ed watchful waiting: while the threats have had no other result than to cause a temporary furry of haste to fore stall any action which might by some
 remote contingency or circumstance. tend to disturb the little game so mani-
 festly enjoyed by both the leaders and
 their men. This has gone on for so long that it is hardly to be doubted
 that the Mexicans have come to look on the attitude of the United States as n biuff, pure and simple, which al-
 though containing the elements of
 danger was hardly likely to develop
 seriously threatening aspects unless matters were carried with a too high hand. And indications are not want ing that the Mexicans knew just about | how far they could go and were cara ful to keep just within the danger line The warm hearted aphroism of yiu, that the United States might go to | iophet' delivered in his address to the ]
