old when ne began his business ca.
reer. He was polite and accom-
modating checkroom boy at the Min
neapolis club for FIVE years and all
tips and money he saved went into

he was buying real estate. and she
chided him for undertaking any.
thing OF the kind at his age. There
after he said nothing about II, but
went on buying.
He died suddenly when he was
% years old as the result OF an ac-
cident. Four months ago friends
OF his began relating stories Of prop

NEGROES TAKE
DOG AND POSSUM

ASHEvlLLE, n. c., March 81
Three little Negro boys, ranging In
age from 20 ii years, presented
a rather pitiful spectacle when they
were lined up at police headquar-
ters on the charge breaking into
a house and stealing three hounds
and a possum. When the police.
after a long search, with only a
glove left behind by the youthful
raiders as a clue, found one of the
boys he had two OF the hounds in
his possession. Search for the pos.
sum proved more difYicult, until the
officers bethought themselves Of the
kitchen and found said possum be-
ing prepared for the table as fast
as possible. All three lads will be
tried at the next session Of the ju-
venile court.

FOR WIDENING

Ry Altman

Tentative plans for the widening
of Madison-ave. TO provide an outlet
Tor traffic In Woodward-ave., at
Grand Circus park, were discussed
before the council committee on
street openings. Thursday, by real
estate men and interested property
owner
Attorney Frank n. Renaud sub
mitted a plan for the condemnation
OF 200-foot strip of property from
Randolph-st. to Gratiot-ave. at Beau
bien-st., which Hould cut diagonally
through business district. He
said that a conservative estimate of
the cost of the improvement would
be 100000, but others present said
IL could rot be done for 'ess than
81 900, 900. Objection to this plan
was made by the Pringle furniture
Co. and the Women's Benefit asso-
citation of tie Maccabees whose
property is located at Randolph-st
and Madison-ave.
Aid james Vernon and Aid. Ed
die" Barnett, devised substitute
plan, which did not meet with so
much objection. Their plan pro-
vides for the widening of the con
tinuation of Madison-ave. from Ran
dolphst. } st. Antoine-st, by con.
demning a strip of land 100 feet
wide on one side OF the street. and
another strip so feet wide on the
opposit" side OF the street. After d
general discussion OF the Vernon
Barnett plan. the committee took
the matter under advisement for a
week. Meanwhile. the city engi-
neer will draft rough sketch OF
the proposed Improvement for the
committee.

Delights Children
And GrO,Un-UpS Alike

The Portmanteau theater. which
Stuart Walker invented and brought
to Detroit, Thursday, TO set up In
the auditorium OF the Museum OF
Art, for afternoon and evening per-
formaices of four quaint plays, Is
too delightful and interesting not to
be brought here again.
The museum auditorium is small,
and the performances were free,
and in the afternoon, when school
children were given the major por-
tion OF the tickets, the crowd over
flowed through the museum to the
street and twice as many boys and
girls, men and women, were turned
away az were permitted TO enter
the auditorium
The children in the audience, in
the afternoon, were attentive and
| appreciative of the three plays pre-
sented- The Trimplet," "Neverthe-
lss," and six Who Pass While The
Dentils Boil" They were quick to
catch the humor, laughed uproari-
ously at the comedy. gave all their
sympathy to the boy in "Neverthe-
less" who couldn't remember to
speak dramatically, and so was
always in disgrace. and finally had
determined to take the contents of
his penny bank and run away from
the cruel parents and teachers who
punished him for saying busted"
instead OF destroyed" and "He had
went" when the grammar says ii
should be "He has gone" The hui
manness of Nevertheless, took
hold of tie juvenile fancy. and was
the best enjoyed OF the plays, be-
yond doubt.
The philosophy, the moral, the al
| legory and symbolism OF the dream
play, "The Trimplet," wa not so
understandable by the children, al
| though il fired their Imagination, as
fairy tales will.
Six Who Pass While The Lentils
Boil was delightfully."- whimsical
| and fantastic, and the calculations"
of the prologue" who sat at one
side To answer questions from the
audience, captivated the children.
In the evening this play was re

Why Labor Is Scarce.

Here is one reason which you may
have overlooked why labor is growing
scarccr every day in the United States ::
We have now in Pennsylvania alone
225,O0O automobiles. One-third of them
are pleasure ears driven by chuuf-
feurs, an army of 1000 ablc-bodied
men removed entirely from produc-
tive work.
The army of pleasure car chautfcurS
in the whole country must exceed halr
a million mcn-iIll nonproducers. IL
deed. there is another great big arm.
of men building pleasure cars to he
operated by these other nOnprodu::crs
of essentials.
They used to complain in Germany
that every taxpayer had to carry Il sol
dier on his back. We vary it in the
United States by carrying II chauffeur
on our backs, says "Girard" in the
Philadelphia Ledger.
