On the rural free delivery route in Har-
winton, Conn, a woman sent a live hen
by parcel post to a neighbor living about
mile away. The carrier weighed the
hen and cancelled the stamps to the
amount of cents and took the hen to
its destination. The hen laid an egg in
the mail bag en- route.

SAFETY FIRST train
DRAWS Big CROWDS
$4,000 Persons View Government Ex-
hibit on First Week Of
Itinerary.

The government safety first special
train which is intended to give the peo-
pie OF the country a glimpse OF what
the Federal government is doing in the
saving of life and property completed the
first week OF its itinerary yesterday, hav-
ing been greeted by crowds that taxed
the capacity of the train.
The train stopped Friday and Saturday
at Baltimore and came back to Wash
lngton yesterday morning to allow the
officials to spend the day at their homes
Last night the train left for Frederick
Md, wnere it will be open for exhibit
ton today Tuesday will be spent at
Hagerstown, and the next day at Cum
berland. 1t is expected that 200 cities
and towns on the Baltimore & Ohio Rail-
road will be covered. and then it is ex-
pected that some of the other trunk
lines of the country will take up the
project.
Van H. Manning, director of the Bu-
reau of Mines, and the executive officer
of the train, was enthusiastic over the
big success of the train. In the first
week of the itinerary" asid Mr.. Man
ming. 5000 persons saw the exhibit, and
thousands were turned away because
they could not get through the crowd
in time to view the exhibits
The interest that the people seem to
have in the work of the Federal govern
ment is nothing short of remarkable. In
every place we visited from Philadelphia
to Baltimore, business organiZa tions
came in bodies, whole factories were dis
missed for several hours and the school
children were given an opportunity to

GAYETY STAGE BRACED
FOR COMING CHORUS
Combined Weight of Twenty-Five Girls
in Watson's Beef Trust Com
pany Is 1000 Pounds.

Late pedestrians along Ninth street
last night may have wondered what all
the hammering was about in the neigh
borhoOd Of the Gayety Theater. Yester-
day afternoon Manager Billy Watson
and his Beef Trust Company arrived in
town. and when Manager Jarboe showed
him the runway that his company have
to parade on. Watson simply threw up
his hands and refused to allow the MEM
bers Of his company to parade on such
flimsy affair.
1T may be all right for the ordinary
troupe. but remember JarbOe, that the
combined weight of the twenty-five girls
in my chorus is 400 pounds. They are
all under contract for next season, and
am not going to run any risk of having
that runway break down and put my
chorus out Of commission. If you knew
what trouble I had to find heavy girls
that are clever enough to go on the
stage, you would not ask me-"
Manager Jarboe had to go and find
a crew of carpenters to start work at
midnight Sunday putting extra stanch-
ions and braces under the runway so as
to enable the famous heavy-weights to
work Monday.

HOROSCOPE.
The stars incline. but do not compel.
Monday, May =, 1915.

This is a day Of dubious promise
Saturn and Mercury are adverse, while
Neptune is of doubtful power.
While this rule continues it is wise to
postpone initiative OF any sort.
The signs are forbidding for specula-
ton, especially whatever concerns min
ing.
Editors should delay important matters
until better sway. Political publicity
and articles intended to mold public opin-
ion are subject to influence believed to
prevent conviction
Dark places of all sorts are held to be
especially dangerous during the sinister
rule OF Saturn. Robberies and violence
meant to bring about unlawful gain are
said to be. common under this govern
ment of the stars s.r
There Is a sign read as indicating a
movement meant to overthrow some es-
tablished system of estimate in COM
mercial matters. This has in it the ele-
ment Of graft and implies serious loss,
the seers declare
While Neptune is in the place occupied
during this configuration, graft and fraud
are supposed to be easier than usual
1t is well to guard against schemers of
every sort for they will multiply greatly.
Vituperation and personalities are sup
posed to be inspired by the signs which
Will prevail during the next few months.
Political contests will become more and
more violent as the campaigns proceed
Conditions which affect mems contests
for power will be apparent in women's
organizations. astrologers announce, and
spirited struggles for honors may be
apparent in. clubs. ..'
New York is subject to a planetary gov
eminent this month, which promises
great profit Hotel proprietors. theatrical
managers, garage owners and all who.
contribute to the holiday comforts of
crowds will prosper, but serious acci--
dent may occur. Pc
Persons whose birthdate 1t is may have
year of great responsibility. '
Children born on this day have the
augury OF great good fortune. Girls may
not be lucky in marriage.

was there ever such a man as Aus
tin Stoneman in American history"
is a question asked by nearly all who
see The Birth of a Nation" It will
be recalled that Stoneman is pictured
a. the leader of the House of Repre-
sentatives in Washington and the
dominant figure in political life after
the assassination OF. President Lin
coin.
1t was an open secret that Thomas
Dixon, the author of THE Clansman,"
upon which THE Birth of a Nation"
is based, modelled the character Of
Stoneman after Thaddeus Stevens, who
was one of the most powerful parlia-
mentary leaders in American history.
There is no denial of the fact that
Stevens came into power when Lincoln
was killed. He was born in Vermont,
but later moved to Lancaster, Pa. He
was always an extremist and radical
of radicals.
As leader of the House he was the
prime factor in passing the Recon-
struction bills which caused so much
misery in the South. When President
johnson decided to follow the Recon-
strUCtion ideas of Abraham Lincoln,
Stevens turned against him and aft
erwards managed the impeachment
trial of the President. His attitude
IOWdruS tHe oOuI!i was eACeeulHsI ~
bitter and naturally he was looked
upon by the people in that section as
their worst enemy.
Aided by the Union League. of
America, which was first founded in
Ohio by his friends, Stevens hoped to
bring about Confscation of the prop
erty of the South. This league did
everything in its power to prevent the
second election of Lincoln. Nicolay
and Hay in their biography of Lincoln
say that Stevens and his friends made
no concealment of their JOY at the
death of the President. This made
Stevens practically the dictator of the
nation.

New York, May 1.-The Suns weekly
review of the financial situation tonor-

Wall Streets conservatism Of recent

Indeed, one might go further and say
that among the most substantial safe
