WANTS TO GET OUT OF JAIL.
Amandus Kessler's Plea to Join Marine
Corps Likely to Go Unheeded.

New York.-Because he is good
porch climber, rife shooter and has
other marked accomplishments, Aman-
dus Kessler wants TO get out Of jail at
Easton, Pa, and become fighter for
Uncle Sam in the ranks Of the United
States marine corps, according to an
appealing letter addressed to the ma
rine recruiting station in this city.
Amandus wrote several pages In his
patriotic outburst and promised to use
his influence to awaken his fellow pris-
oners to the call of the flag If the ma
rines would only come and get him out.
Although the young man claims to be
a good, healthy feller," unfortunately
his morals are not In the same flourish
ing condition, so Amandus and his pals
must languish in prison while the ma
rine corps remains heartless but I'M
contaminated.

CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE.
Members Are Men With Civic Pride
Who Advance Civic Interests.

Members Are Men With Civic Prioe
Who Advance Civic Interests.
When business man becomes
member of a chamber of commerce his
worth to the community as such mem
Der Is measured by his faith in the
institution and what he personally con-
tributes through individual effort to-
ward promoting the success of the Or
ganization, writes Edwin B. Lord, Sec
rotary of the Massillon (O.) chamber
of commerce. Such men usually are
broad in their views. They are men of
faith. They are prepared to bow to
the rule of the majority, even though
it may not suit them personally.
Ever since chambers of commerce
have been in existence there have been
men who profted by the work of 9TH
ers, yet who did nothing personally to
promote the civic advantages upon
which their individual success invaria
bly, was more or less dependent Such
men usually think they are fooling the
other fellows who are doing the actual
work of building up the city; but, In
the last analysis, they are cheating
only themselves, for they never realize
full dividends upon their efforts be-
cause they cannot understand that the
best way of helping oneself is to
help the other fellow. These men are
never found on the firing line. They
are the faultfinders, the destructive
critics.
In each community, however, there
are men who take pleasure in advertis-
ing their home town and cultivating
their civic pride. These are the men
Of influence In the local chamber of
commerce, and they are the men to
whom the community looks for support
and guidance when plans or work In
volving the welfare of the community
is under consideration.
1t is from this class of men that the
best and most successful members of
chamber are recruited, and without
such men many cities now occupying
front ranks in Industrial commercial
or civic development would still be hid
den in the obscurity enveloping all
places lacking civic pride.

Window Box Floral Displays.

The idea of window box floral dis
plays in the windows of business
houses has probably caught on" more
effectively in the smaller cities of the
country than In the larger centers, says
the Town Development Magazine.
However. as is sometimes the case. the
larger and largest municipalities are
falling in line in this very commenda-
BILE effort along civic Identification ef-
forts The past summer flowers
bloomed in many city business win
dows where hitherto the only blooms
were dust and dirt and CRIME. And
now Chicago has undertaken the ex-
tension Of the idea into the winter
months. Owners Of number of down
town buildings have placed In their
windows boxes planted with lockwood
or some of the varieties OF the pine
family. and the perpetual greenness
thus achieved Is pleasing and inspiring
and has a tendency to make one well
come the icy breezes as merely bracing
and in accord with a spirit of exhilara-
ton and joyousness Any effort of this
nature intended TO dispel the bleakness
of the ordinary city In winter time is
worthy OF support. hut extreme care
must be taken to see that the window
boxes are Fastened securely.

Barge Captain Found Dead, Caught In
Cabin Window.
New York.-Captain Frank MCGEE Of
the barge Frank Becker of Kingston,
N. Y, was found dead from exposure
on his barge, which was made fast at
pier % of thl New York Dock COM
pany at the foot of Pacific street,
Brooklyn. He had evidently gone
ashore and forgotten to take his keys.
The body was found halfway through
the window of his cabin at the stern Of
the barge.
When Thomas Henry, the night
Waterman, was going his rounds he
saw the legs and feet Of man hanging
from the cabin window of the Frank
Becker and found the body was cold.
DR.. Shutter OF the Long Island College
hospital said that Captain MCGEE had
died from exposure and had been try
ing to get into his cabin when the win
dow slammed down and caught his
spine, so that he was unable to get In
or out. He had been with friends until
2 o'clock in the morning and had gone
down to the pier an hour later, 1t was
said. He was forty-fiye years old.

ATTACKED BY PET BUCK.
Hatchery superintendent and Wife Set
Upon While Feeding Pet Deer.

Auburn, Me.-John F. Stanley, sew

fish hatchery grounds, and his wife,
seventy-one, were nearly killed by a
pet buck which suddenly became en-
ragged. Stanley was feeding the ami
NAL, which charged on him, breaking
several ribs and cutting and bruising
him. Mrs. Stanley was awakened by
the noise and, clad only In her night
gown, rushed to the Enclosure to aid
her husband. The buck charged her,
too, and would have killed her but for

drove him away.
Mrs. Stanley crawled to the tele-
phone, gave the alarm and then faint

merged In brook and helpless. The
buck was killed by order of the state
authorities

SHARK GOT HALF HIS CATCH.
Sudden End Of Fishernan's Great Ex-
peotations.

Honolulu.-What promised to be one
Of the biggest ulua catches Of the sea-
son for Tax Collector Charles T. Wild
er was spoiled when big shark took
half Of the fish's body as Wilder was
pulling 1t in with his reel.
Wilder was having a fine tussle with
what seemed a mighty game fish. His
line sagged, and he felt only a slow
moving weight at the end of it. When
he lifted from the water he found only
half a f1sh-the head and fore portion
of the body. The tail and hind part
were entirely gone. Scratches on the
side of the fish showed that the shark
had made two grabs, the second being
successful. This seems TO put an end
to the theory that a shark cannot bite
under water or upright, for nothing
else could have bitten of that tail.

New York.-Many millions in cash
securities were transferred across Fifth

posits alone of this Office total nearly
S40,O00,000. How much was In the
$500 safe deposit boxes is beyond con-

guarded by special officers belonging to
the bank and by squads Of city police
men and detectives.
The task began at the close Of bust
ness with the cutting away Of the steel
bars on the Forty-third street side of
the trust company's old quarters and
continued several hours. Traffic on
Fifth avenue was not interrupted, and
the transfer of all this wealth was
practically unnodced by the passersby

Rover Never In Ono Place Long Enough

st. Louis.-George Weise, a former
sailor and of an admitted rowing dispo-
sition, recently received $39025 from
the local free legal aid bureau, repre-
senting his share of the estate of an
uncle who died In Adrian. Mich, eight
cen years ago.
Weise applied to the bureau several
days ago and asked Matthew Conck-
ling, assistant superintendent, to assist
him in getting his inheritance. He ex-
planned that he had never applied for
it because since the death of his uncle
he had not been long enough in one
place to take the time to apply for his
share.

Missouri is About to Create Commits

The Missouri children's code commits

the recent issuance of tentative pre-

good resume for the purpose of crit
icism and suggestion, and the commit
tee will soon proceed to draft the COM
plete code in its finished form.
The report is very comprehensive.
While the commission has taken cog
nizance of all that has been done In
this field in the past, 1t has the merit
of having brought to the work some of
the newer standards of judging the
value of social welfare work In plan
ming the machinery to carry out the
policies which 1t is promoting the COM
mission has provided for the creation
of county board Of public welfare In
each county. This board is to be COM
posed of the school superintendent, the
Judge Of the circuit court and the three
Judges of the county court. In order
10 add trained efficiency to this board
the board is required to employ as SUI
perintendent social worker who must
hold a certificate Of fitness from the
state board of charities. Other con-
structive suggestions of merit are en-
bodied in the report One of the most
important of these is the correlation Of
health and welfare activities.

WAR DRIVES FOREIGN
THIEVES TO AMERICA
Detectives Expect Big Haul In
JeWeIry at Some Society
Event This Winter.

Westinghouse you happen to own
a Jewel collection and your taste runs
toward wearing it in public, you had
better hire a bodyguard this winter.
The United States is oyerrun with Eu-
ropean crooks, some of them the
smoothest thieves ON the continent.
Private detective and police agencies
in New York, Boston, Philadelphia,
Washington, Chicago and other big CEN
tiers are looking forward to one Of the
most active years in the last decade.
It's all on account Of the European
war, which has made theft hardly
worth while on big scale across the
water.
In Washington there's detective
agency which specializes in the guard
ing of guests and jewelry at big social
functions. The business Of this agency
is not confined to events at the capital.
for private detectives of faultless man
ner and speech are sent out on Jobs
as far west as Chicago by this same
agency.
One man who has devoted years of
experience and his organization Of
sleuths to the protection of social lead
ers and their guests recently returned
from trip that extended north to Bos-
ton and west to the Mississippi.
ats going to be a big year for agen-
cies like ours" he said. within the
past twelve months Europe has been
sending over some Of the cleverest jew
ell thieves this country has ever seen,
and they have only come here when
it was clear that robbery as a profess
sion was up against hard times abroad

BLOW UP POLICE STATION.
Boston Harbor Squad Escapes Injury.
Neiahbors Shaken Up.

Neiqhbors shaken Up
Boston.-The station Of the harbor
police In the north end district was
partly wrecked by an explosion of dy-
Mantle that had been placed against
the outside wall apparently with intent
to destroy the building.
Four policemen were inside, three of
them asleep In the dormitory, Just
above the place where the explosion
tore hole in the wall, but all escaped
harm. Residents Of the populous tene-
ments along Commercial and Saluta-
ton streets, near by. were scared as
their houses were shaken, plaster was
cracked and broken glass fell about
them.
The police said that the explosion
was intended probably as an act OF re-
taliation because some unlicensed
meetings led by industrial agitators
had been broken up recently by Off
GERS. Several suspected persons were
questioned, but no arrests were made.
The residents of the district are largely
foreigners.

had blanks, on which they made re-
