Use for Auto Seat

From the Popular Science Monthly.
A real estate man Of Los Angeles, Cal,
has found new use for the rear seat OF
a worn-out automobile. He came into thu
possession of an automobile which was
ready for the junk pile.
Realizing his immediate need of
resting place for the patrons who visited
his little office he saw that some other
place must be provided if his customers
We're to be we'll taken care Of.
He thought of the old automobile war
horse that stood in his back yard. After
some consideration he decided that the
rear seat of that tub was just what he
wanted. So, he took it down and planted
it in the parkway directly in front of
his office. And there it is now in royal
dignity.

COURT OFFICIALS SUMMONED AS
 WITNESSES

The latest in the case of the United States vs. James Fish, l.. A. Kunzig and J. C. Martin, generally known as the Tillicum Club was sprung by District Attorney Spence At the re quest of the prosecutor subponeas were issued for Judge Fred NJ. Brown. George J. Love, Ross Paden and w. | NJ. Finical as witnesses for the gov l Icrnment in the case, which is expect ed to come up for hearing immediate Ily following the case of Ike Westberg vs Ellamar Mining Company. the hearing of which is set for April 24.
 With the above subpoenas every of flee connected with the judicial branch of the court is represented in the governments case Arthur Lang clerk of the court. was subponeaed to appear just before his departure for 1 the States, and the present subponeas embrace the district judge and the | U. s. commissioner.
 The case will come up for hearing before Judge Jennings, who has been Instructed by the attorney general to come to Valdez for that purpose, and Judge Brown has received instructions to occupy the bench of the First di- vision while Judge Jennings is here. Just what effect the subponena will have on the action of Judge Brown is not known at this time.
 The case against the Tillicum Club was brought on information filed by the district attorney after the grand jury had investigated the case. and refused to return an indictment, and is the outcome of the factional politi- cal strike, in which the district attor- ney has taken sides. This action has led to the filing of charges against the district attorney with the attorney general by the Democrats of nearly every town in the territory
 It is generally conceded that the motive back of the prosecution of the l Tillicum Club does not arise so much from a strict sense of duty as from desire to "get square" with his op- ponents, and this belief is strength iened by the fact that the prosecuting attorney has positively declined to take steps against the members of the Alaska Club, and organization operat- ing in that city under similar condi- tions by the opposing faction, or against the Commercial Club of Seward and the Locked Horns Club of Kenai, all of which are equally guilty and subject to tho same prose cution as the Tillicum Club removed it's bar before either of these organi- cations, 1t is alleged. Nor has any action been begun against any simi- lar organization operating in the other divisions of the territory by any other district attorney.
 The Tillicum Club is a Valdez or ganization, composed of business men and prominent army and Signal Corps

Woman Who Taught 40 Years in Bridgeport
 Schools Dies at 65

With the death of Amelia A. Lud- dington, widow of CT orles A. Congers at her home, 46 Pleasant street, Monday, there passed away one of the oldest school teachers of Bridge port and one who had instructed dur ing her long years of service many of born in Great Burlington, Conn.,, 65 years ago. the daughter of John H. and Hannah M. Luddington. When a girl she came to this city with her parents and completed her education at the old Barnum school. It was a time when there were none of the modern facilities to fit young women for the instruction of the younger generation and teachers were pressed into service with little preliminary training. Mrs. Conger, then Miss Luddington, began to teach in the old Newfield school, West Stratford, when she was only IT years old. The present Lincoln school now occupies the site of the older building. Later, Mrs. Con- ger taught in Lincoln and in Barnum schools and then for 15 years was principal of the Old Mill Green school. She then taught Huntington school, and two years ago was made tutor in Staples and Huntington school. This year she was given a position again in Barnum school, where she contin- ued at her duties until 8 week ago last Friday afternoon. While visiting her sister, Mrs. Edwin C. Rowley of Mill ford. a, week ago Saturday, she be- came i'll. She was removed to her home in this city, but her illness, which had been diagnosed as pneu- monia, became worse, ending in her death last night.
 It Is estimated that Mrs. Conger gave about 40 years of her life to teaching in tho schools of Bridgeport.
 She is survived by her son, Bruce IT. Conger of this city and her sister, Mrs Row1ey of Milford.

For the straight clos. ing however. twin collars either o1 broadcloth, flannel or wash satin ars suggested. To trim the one-piecs sleeves the home dressnaker has choice of stitched bands or cuffs. The one-piece skirt has a straight lower edge, the top being gathered. Larps pockets ornamented with buttons oi self material decorate the skirt.
 In medium size the dress requires AZ yards 54-inch material. To euI the dress, it will be necessary to ar. range the material in three different ways; in. open width, half fold and double fold.

TODAY'S POEM
THE BELGIAN SLAVE SONG.

Led at the conqueror's cannon wheel With unseen chains on limb, Their eyes speak out the slaves ap-
 peal,
 Sad, sodden, sul1en, grim, And as through alien fields they reel, Hark to the whispered hymn: Sow and SOW the vengeance grain, Sprouting from the hearts of slain Be it's harvest wheat of woe!
 Sow! SOW! SOW! The frenzy of the fighting folk Has passed and left these bent, As if a blinding lightning stroke Scared the souls tenement But though the eyes are duiled, with
 smoke,
 Behind. the fire is pent
 Sow and SOW the seed of hate! ( routing. it shall split stafe! Lifting, thrones 1t shall o'erthrow
 Sow! SOW! sow! Within the alien furrows flung Are grains of strangest kind The eyes of mothers, dying young A newer sight to find! And under breath a song is sung To living ones still blind: Sow and SOW eternal tears For the slayer's drowning years Tears that shall to torrents grow Sow! SOW! sow John O'Keefe, in N. Y. World

THE NEW AMERICAN DOLL.

The day of the o1d-fashioned Ger man doll has gone, probably forever. She was always an unnatural, artffi- cial product, with her porcelain face, painted like a chorus girl, her pop ping blue eyes, her mass of unvary- ing golden hair, her highly colored ruby" lips. No single thing in the nursery was the cause of se many domestic tragedies, Drop her on the floor, and the head would usually go flying into a dozen parts, and legs and arms constantly b1ed sawdust SC pro- fuse1y as to suggest the carnage of a. European battlefield. Little girls who could easily manufacture a baby out of the family raghag had no difficulty in methering one of these queer prod uets of the Germanie genius, and Sc millions of Americans have been brought upon them, But their day. we are told, is over.
 The European War, which had ended most kinds of immigration, has shut cut these little wanderers. Amer icah genius, which is now being call ed upon te manufacture eea1-tar dyes hexamyt and manicure seis,
