SHARK Is REAL MlN-EATER
Museum Men say Captured Monster
MAY Have Done All Killing.

NEW YORK. Aug. 3.-The seven
and a half foot shark captured by Mi
chael Schleisser of South Amboy y.
j., was said By two experts of the
American Museum Of Natural History
to be of the most dangerous ~ the
man-eating species.
This shark was found to have in its
belly the bones OF mans left fore
arm. It is scientifically dubbed the
carcharodon carcharias. but in fishing
parlance it IS called the white shark.
II was said to be not improbable that
this shark did all the killing on the
New Jersey coast and in Matawan

Her frown deepened as she walked
to State street AS she rounded the

arrested by a window display of tiny
lingerie caps, dresses, stock
ings and bootees, a most alIuring dis
play of baby's wear. She stopped to
look and dolefully ruminate over the
little baby things she wished she
could buy.
And then she decided. She took
dollar from the four that were to
do her for the next seven days; she
forgot the lunches she would have to
miss, the long walks home in the
cold that the dollar from her store
would make her take; she thought
only of the baby things and bought

CHI COMMUNITY TRUST PLANS
TO GET CHARITY DOUGH
Recent years have been long and
lean for the United Charities and 9TH
er members of the charity trust. p"
Citizens have read exposes till they
have grown afraid of the appeals for
aid sent out through the columns of
the trust papers.
Advertising on the 81" trains, ex-
hibits in churches, lectures by well
fare workers and even the reorgan-
ization of the scheme through which
the money is expended has failed to
restore the confidence lost when the
.Curran commission of the Ill. legis-
lature denounced the. United Chari-
ties and other organizations as unfit
to perform the work they have unI
dertaken.
: So a new way of collecting money
has been found. Prominent Chicago
ans met yesterday to organize the
Chicago Community Trust The
trust" will undertake to distribute,
or "divvy," whatever money you
leave to it among the charitable or
CARNATIONS of Chicago. The trust
is modelled after the one in Cleveland,
which has a fund of $50, 000,0 900, from
which is derived a fund for welfare
work.
Clifford Barnes has been chosen
head of the controlling committee.
"Our work will be general" he
said. 1--WE will distribute money
where it is most needed through the
United Charities and civic bodies.
Chicago has felt the need of such a
trust for a long time. 1t plans pri-
marilly to administer funds bequeath-
ed to it in the manner the donor
wishes"

BOY TOOK CHANCE OFFERED
Indiana Judge Had Faith in Human
Nature, and 1t was Not Mis-
placed on This Occasion.

A judge sitting as the juvenile court
in an Indiana town was trying a boy
on a charge of stealing stamps from
his employer. The evidence was pure
ly circumstantial. The boy had
cleaned his employers desk and a
short time later he tried to sell to an
other employee the same number of
stamps that had been missed from the
desk. The judge considered the evil
dence of the men who worked at the
same place and then called the police
man who had arrested the boy.
Now" said the court, did either
of you see this boy take the stamps" 2"
mo, your honor, but the boy has
made full confession to u.s."
The court looked at the boy, who
WINGED slightly at this statement.
WELL" the court concluded, that
may be. But I'm for absolute justice
In this court, and nobody saw the boy
take the stamps. The defendant Is
discharged"
The next day the boy returned the
stamps to his employer.-Indianap

The Emperor Of Sorrows.

Francis Joseph, Emperor OF Austria,
died last week, after brief illness from
pneumonia, in his palace in Vienna. He
was Sc years old and had reigned for
more than 81 years, having ascended The
throne at the age OF l9. He was known
as the Emperor OF Sorrows, for few men,
be they king or peasant, have had The
troubles which came TO him during his
long life. The story OF his career and
the sorrows that he experienced seems
more like fiction than historic fact. The
following are among the episodes that
caused him TO be known as the Emperor
of Sorrows:
His son. Crown Prince Rudolph, was
found dead with Marie Vetsera. young
noblewoman, in hunting lodge at Mey-
erling, January %, 1889. The mystery
was never explained.
The Archduke John Salvador, eloping
with an actress, set sail on ship, which
disappeared and was never heard from.
His wife, the Empress Elizabeth, was
assassinated by an Italian anarchist in 1893.
Rudolph's widow became dissipated
and married below her.
The daughter OF Rudolph's widow
shoots an actress to whom her husband
had been attentive.
The Archduke Louis Victor is thrashed
in public by the father ofa young woman
he has insuIted, and is forced into exile.
His granddaughter Elizabeth elopes
with lieutenant; her sister, Louise,
commits indiscretions and then describes
them in a book; the Countess Larisch,
niece of the Empress Elizabeth, also
publishes scandalous confessions the
Archduchess Isabelle Marie leaves two
days before her marriage 10 Prince George
OF Bavaria and becomes nurse.
His brother, Emperor Macmillan OF
Mexico, was executed by Bantio Juarez.
Maximllian's wife, Carlotts, became a
maniac.
The Archduke JadisIaus was shot while
hunting; Prince Louis and the Arch
duke Johans were drowned.
The Emperor's wiIe's sister, the Ouch
ess D'AIencon. was burned to death at
charity bazaar.
His nephew and heir. the Archduke
Francis Ferdinand, and the laiter's wife,
were assassinated in Sarajevo by Slav
plotters, and this WAS the event that pre-
cipitated the present dreadful war in Eu-
rome.

Proper Spirit of the Season.

The proclamations OF those who hold
high station as the representatives oi the
peoples very properly bespeak the spirit
the nation should manifest. The man
hesitation OF that spirit is, however. not
alone in feasting and the Joyous acclaim
OF thousands on the field OF sport. The
consciousness OF blessing and The return
ing OF thanks therefor by every man ac-
cording as he is blessed, no less than the
voicing Of prayer that he be made ever
more sensible OF all his blessings, will
make the day for all the holy day II should
be. Gratitude for the guidance thus tar;
strength 10 meet the trials still 10 come.

Real Causes For Gratitude.

To give thanks for the more particular
benefits, valuable in small way in our
own hives, would seem 10 me dispensable.
and OF proportionately little value; but to
show gratitude and appreciation for the
vaster blessings with which the life OF
each one OF us is enriched, this, II would
seem 10 me, is indispensable.
We are usually down on our knees,
thankful il some project OF our own sue
ceeds. il something We desire for our
selves or for our friends comes 10 pass;
but high moons and sunsets. stars and
great rivers, cities gi!iering in the night,
plains and valleys silent under the moon,
dawn across the sea, the mantle OF the
storm and fringes OF the rain, and world
made new each day, and that large
compsnionship OF Joy and sorrow and
hope shared with men and women whose
lives merely brush ours in passing, and
in whose faces we may perhaps not look
again-ior these. these royal gifts, what
gratitude OF high and noble living do we
offer ?

AT the breaking out OF the great Euro
pean war in August, 1914, big German
steamship was in harbor at Wilmington
unloading cargo. OF course she did not
dare venture out, with British cruisers
securing the seas, and she is still there.
AT The same time another big German
steamer was en- route from Galveston to
New York, and when her captain received
a wireless message that war had been
declared he made bee line for the near
est port, which happened TO be Whining
Ton, and he barely reached the three-mile
limit in time, for British war ships gave
him lively chase. Both of these ships
have been lying idle at anchor at Will
mington ever since, and their officers and
crews are mighty tired OF doing nothing.
We visited one OF these vessel, the Kiel,
and were pleasantly entertained by Cap
tain Emken, who is patiently waiting for
peace TO be declared. Captain Enken

baby make the ship tlle next best thing
