two issues which are widely separate.
You intimate in that article that Mr..

stripes.
It was apparently the intention to
add both a stripe and a star for every
new state admitted, but in 1918 the
number of states had increased to
20 and the flag was rapidly getting
out Of shape. Congress altered the
design to the style we now use.

YOUNG MANS RESPONSE. In
answer to an appeal from a young
mother who possibly fell by the way
side, this article is rendered.
Any young man Of normal mind
and body, having a conscience with
any respect for motherhood would
never condemn a girl who, in her in
nocence, was tempted and fell, but
has tried to rectify herself.
Why should any one delVe into
girls past? Take her for what she
is, not for what she was.
How many people look into a
mans past to see if he has fallen or
not? Very few, unless his past is
written on his face.
The average girl figures. that once
she has fallen there is no hope. She
is wrong. Her hope and the hope of
every young woman who falls lies in
her ability to prevent the same from
occurring again and to the best Of
her ability to live it down, to forget
it. In my opinion any man or wOm-
an who would cast a blot on girls
good name because of a mistake is
lower than the lowest derelict on the
face of Gods Universe.-M. E. B.

BAD LUCK TO STEAL S13,
ACCORDING TO MR.. JONES
Three Negroes Took His Cash, but
Police Quickly Arrest
Trio

It's bad luck to steal $13. Within half
an hour after three negroes forced William
Jones to part with this sum much against
his will, four blacks had been gathered in
by the police on suspicion.
Jones was on his way home. The money
was camoufaged within his shirt. II seems
that one of the quartet who accosted him
knew this, for his black hand tore aside
the bosom of Joness shirt and drew forth
the money Immediately.
Jones assumed the police would be slight
ly interested. He told Policemen Butler
and Stevenson. on hearing details Of the
robbery, they walked strlightway to a res
taurant near Thirteenth and South streets.
which is noted for its brand of fish cakes.
Three negroes were in the midst of a man,
moth meal when the cops arrived. They
attempted rush for the street, but were
conquered after a battle. Jones said the
men looked very much like those who took
his money. The prisoners declined to dis
cuss the matter They gave their names as
William Patterson, William Graf and Joe
Johnson. All were taken to the Eleventh
and Pine streets station.

Five persons narrowly escaped death
early this morning when a roomer I'm the

while one Of the jets was open.
Several times during the night Holiday
who had retired with an injured hand, was
awakened by the pain. 1t was shortly after
o'clock that he smeled gas. He awakened
his wife Caroline, and they, nearly over
come by the fumes, hastened TO the room
occupied by Isaac Bacon and George Shep-
perd. With difficulty they succeeded in
arousing the men. The four went to Robert
Gray's room and there found gas escaping
Gray was unconscious. When the police
of the Twenty-eighth District were notified
they brought lung motor and attempted to
revive Gray as they rushed him to the

while reading in bed and the gas in the
meter burned out. Sheppard later, the po-
lice say went into the basement to replen-
ish the gas supply.
