title of Mrs. Muth's Yuletide tale.
Isabel Carleton's Year" is the book
from Miss Ashmun's pen. Both wo-
men have taught IN Helena. Miss
Ashmun was formerly teacher of
English in the He4ena high school,
where her feature in teaching was
short story telling and the develop
ment of story writing. Edna Tucker
Muth taught in the Central school
in Helena from 1904 to 1910. Miss
Ashmun taught in the high school
from 1906 to 1908.
Miss Ashmun's story has an espe-
cial appeal and local application to
Helena, as it is written about high
school girls and it was in Helena that
she taught in the high school.
The senior year in high school of a
charming, bright and very human
girl is the theme of this story-her
girlish ambitions, her occupations,
her amusements, her sacrifices and
her triumphs.

Federal Department :.
 to Defend Measure

Washington, Nov. 15-Attorney- General Gregory has decided that suits by railroads against enforceent of the Adamson eiaht-hour law will be defended by the department of justice. The defense to be presented in each case will be worked out be- tween Solicitor General Davis and other department officials with United States attorneys in various jurisdic- tions.
 The department today was unable to determine ! whether it would be necessary to defend each of the many suits already begun or whether the railways would be content to make a test case of one suit. No word has reached the attorney general from the railroads suggesting such a course and if such a proposal is not made each suit will be defended.
 Reports that railroad and Brother hood officials had considered a sug- gestion that MT. Gregory be asked to suspend operation of the Atkinson. law for 30 days were met with the statement that the attorney general has no such authority and that his only course is to defend the suits or let them go by default.

Managers Continue
 Conferences on Bill

New York, Nov. 15-Railway man. agers comprising the National Con- ference Committee continued today consideration of whether wholesale legal action to defeat the Adamson eight-hour law will be taken or whether limited series of injunc- tions will be filed. The concensus of opinion was said to favor the former course, which would result in ap- proximately 5000 actions, covering entire railroad territory of the United States. Whichever method is select ed, the cases are expected to be in the courts within 10 days.
 In view of the fact that the New lands committed is to, hold public hearings on the railroad situation generally beginning next Monday there was an indication that definite action would be postponed until tho conclusion of these hearings.
 The brotherhoods, it was announc- ed, will not contest the suits to be in- stituted by the roads. They contend that the duty logically devolves upon the attorney-general, and will, look to the judicial branch of the government to fight their battle.

HER FORTY DOCS
 COULD NOT KEEP
 CREDITORS AWAY
Wilton Woman Says She'd Rather Give Cash to
 Hounds Than Heirs.

Although she kept 40 dogs on her country estate at Wilton, Sarah l.. Davenport couldn't keep her creditors away and she appeared in the civil superior court this morning to explain her troubles to Judge Gager. She is suing the Citizens National bank ot Yonkers, N. Y., to get an accounting for S12,000 deposited there for her.
 This money was loaned by another bank in New York state after Frank B., Gardiner of Wilton had arranged the matter. Before closing the loan Gardiner told Mrs. Davenport she must get rid of, the dogs as the ex- pense of keeping them was too great. "I'd rather give my money to the dogs than to my heirs," Gardiner testified she replied. She finally agreed to let the dogs go, but Gardiner after ward found she sent them to John D. Rockefeller's kennels at Tarry- town, N. r., where she had to pay $75 a week for their board.
 After the bank made the loan and took mortgage on the property Gar diner checked it out to pay bills owed by Mrs. Davenport. She wants to find out what became of all the money. Mrs. Davenport is sister of Attorney Daniel Davenport of this city.

Bridgeport is a city of unequalled prosperity but its gross materiialism makes it an unprofitable town for a poor, itinerant evangelist.

 McPherson anticipated the busi- ness of saving souls would reach land office proportions but things broke so badly that he started out on the street yesterday, offering to sell the tires of his automobile, the tools, or the auto itself.
 , The Bridgeport police are a suspic- fous type. and they Immediately be- came suspicious of McPherson, lock- ing him up! for not having an auto license in his possession. He explain ed that on coming from Massachu- setts he had stopped at Providence, R. l., and in packing away some hymn books accidently packed the liz cense with them.,
 In court this morning before Judge Frederic A. Bartlett he claimed that he wanted to dispose of the auto to buy a team and seemed greatly crest fallen. producing 9 card which he passed to 8 polite officer, aprepos of his trouble which read Carry Your Cross and Follow Me-"
 Judge Bartlett nolled the charge on payment of court costs.

 IN THE HARB0R
Investigate Loss of Teaser, Crew of Which Cannot
 Be located.

MsEery today surrounds the sink ing of the sloop yacht Teaser in the outer harbor. It is not known wheth- CT any person was aboard of her when she went down, though investigation probably will be begun today by liar bormaster William A. Lamond.
 AS far as can be learned the Teas CT, which was recently transferred on the government records from Capt. J. Pulser to Ernest A. Dean, of 260 Newffeld avenue, was at anchor dur ing the night of Nov. 13. Whether her lamps were lighted or register ed crew called for in the documents filed with the government was on board is not known today. her decks beinx awash even at high tide.
 Discovery of the wreck was made yesterday, morning by an employe of the Park City Yacht club, who att tends to the lighting of club yachts lying at anchor off the American Tube & Stamping Co. point between Yellow Mill pond and .Johnston's creek. He observed the mast of the vessel pro- jecting above high-water mark. Cruis- ing about the vessel in small row.
  tinguish the vessels name beneath the surface and also that the companion way door was ajar as if somebody had been on board. The interior of the cabin cannot be seen.
 In waterfront circles. the fact of the door being unlocked is taken as evidence that somebody was in the boat at the time of sinking or the door was opened for the purpose of robbery or scuttling. The boat might have sprung a leak, according to harbor men, but 1t Is not likely that she capsized because of the light winds prevalent during the past few night. The Teaser is 31.1 over all, with a breadth of 11.6 and depth of 25 inches. She was built in 1891 at Cayville, l.. I. Ter tonnage net and gross is five tons.
