LOVE OF EASE.

What is there about love OF ease"
that makes the strenuous one so wroth {?
asks "The Philadelphia Record" Love
Of ease is a universal human trait, and
has been so from the beginning of
time. 1t is the incentive even of war.
Barbarian tribes and nations fight for
slaves, and even the city-states of an
cient Greece made WA. in order to re-
duce their captive enemies to bondage
and compel them 20 DO all the work, so
that the conquerors might enjoy lives
Of leisure Love OF ease is the main
spring of nearly all human activities.
Men labor TO obtain comforts and lux
uries. If the hope Of enjoying the
fruits of ones work were gone no man
would labor except under compulsion
OF law or of necessity He who vocf-
crates against love of ease assails all
mankind, including himself

Thaw Wastes Billions of Gallons
of CrOtOn Water.

What old caretakers call the greatest
waste Of water in the history Of the
Croton supply is going over the spill
way Of Cornell dam. Yesterdays loss
was estimated at five billion gallons. II
made noise like Niagara.
This loss Of the city water, worth
1925 a million gallons, is sscribed to
the sudden thsw of snow along the
Croton watershed.
The water presents an impressive
spectacle as it flashes over the spill
vav 1860 feet wide. and drops from
10 10 l25 feet into the rocky gorge be-
low.
II rockoned at the wholesale selling
n-ice. the water lost yesterday was
worth s625 900. By the end Of the rainy
season. now due, the loss, caretakers
say. will run away up into the billions
Of gallons. The reservoir has been
overlooking for a week. and, ordinarily
is not due 10 stop entirely until May ].

NEW STYLE ILLNESS
COSTLY FOR CLUBMAN
Judge Holds Colt Must Pay
S1,253 for Being Cured.

"A club gentlemen's sickness" Is the
latest. OF course. a man must be a
member Of a club 10 be afflicted in this
way and, also. he must be gentle
man" 70 be able TO afford it. II doesn't
appear anywhere in the code Of civil
procedure, but a person may recover
from any one so suffering for any debts
incurred for treatment while in that
condition.
According TO testimony in the Su-
preme Court yesterday CLUB gentle
mans sickness" does not differ much
from the old-fashioned spree, except
that il is more lasting and much more
expensive.
Craig Colt. clubman and related TO
the family that makes firearms, came
70 New York from his home, in Baby
lon. Here he fell victim TO the dread
ed affection. There was no doubt about
the symptoms. for Colt belongs to the
Union, Tuxedo and Westminster Ken
mel clubs. He went TO a sanatorium IN
West Thirty-seventh Street where TINS
sickness Is treated. He was there about
three weeks. Mrs. Lolita Stanton. who
runs the sanatorium, had TO sue Colt 10
recover the cost of the treatment.
Colt paid $500 on account besides the
sf.253 claimed. Colt did not appear az
the trial Yesterday. Mrs. Stanton salc
that the defendant while urder treat
ment occupied "sumptucusly fur-
nished room" Champagne, liquots'
cigars and cigarettes figured IN tne
cure. These cost 1898. The room rem
was 1920. III

thought little OF it. In fact he paid
courteous and agreeable, but ne spent
most Of his time with mother. He
was always sitting around with her
telling her humorous stories and ne
easily worked his way into her con-
fdences.
Then mother came 20 me and sug-
gested the marriage. She talked about
il long before Arthur ever preached
the subject She kept reciting his viz
tues and pointing out the value o,
union with such a promising young
surgeon as she called him, that be-
came interested. Then came the WOO
ing and my acceptance. II mother had
not insisted, however, and II ! had
listened 20 fathers suggestions 20 hold
my decision, all would have been well.
The real swfulness Of il all comes
to me when ! think that Arthur's ex-
aggersted consideration Of mother con-
tinued night up 20 her death. While ne
was poisoning her and she was suffer
ing from chills she frequently COM
planned 70 him. One day she made the
remark that her feet were cold, and Ar
thur Immediately assured her that he
could remedy that. And what did he
do but 60 and send her up an electric
foot warmer. Not only that, he sent
her flowers every day. and he was al.
ways sure 20 sit around with her and
sympathize for hours every day"
That she would never forgive her
husband no matter what occurred was
the declsrtion Of Mrs. Waite. When
she was told to-day that he had as
serted that she would go 70 him, she
told her brother, Percy s. Peck:
81 never can bring myself 70 feel
sorry for Arthur. After his confession
! can do nothing but hate him. He will
have TO suffer alone. ! will never sym
psthize. | believe some in retribution
Of sins on earth. and | think that Ar
thur will atone for his crimes in the
anguish he will experience while wait
ing for the end"
When asked IL she would be sorry
~ he was sent 10 the electric chair.
she replied: 81 do not believe would.
It would only be just. although ! hope
that step is not resorted TO.
81 am absolutely through. and ! am
already beginning to forget ! fled
my bill for divorce because ! wanted
TO. No one urged me. 1t was my own
sugf gestion. And ! want everything TO
60. now to q speedy conclusion"
The affair still continues TO prey on
Mrs. Waite's mind, and she calls in
friends every day 70 tell her troubles
10. She eats but little, and her sleep
is troubled.
Percy S. Peck, who footed the bills
for the investigation which resulted
in Waite's arrest, declared to-day that
he spent almost $4,000
"A fortune went for tsxicabs in New
York" he said.
