included are coast artillery, cavalry

Robb said the mobilization order was
matter Of routine instruction only

Reports that mobilization OF the
Guard would call troops back into ac-

At the armorles in Brooklyn and

heard Of the order Another advantage
OF the test, officers say, will lie in its

Judge Tells Girls
TO Sue Policeman
For False Arrest
Rosalsky Severely Criticises
Plainclothes Man and
Also Magistrate Who Or
dered Them to Prison
By BRIGGS

Two girls who had been arrested
and imprisoned for four days on
charges of "disorderly conduct" unsus-
tanned on appeal, were exonerated YES
terday by Judge Rosalsky in Special
Sessions. In dismissng the case
against them Judge Rosalsky severely
criticised John F. Gunson, a plain
clothes member of the Vice SQUAD.
who arrested the girls. The court sup-
gested that they press a civil suit
against the policeman, assuring them
that they could obtain damages.
When President Wilson made his ad-
dress at the Metropolitan Opera
House on the night of March the
girls, Miss Lillian Kahn and Miss
Sally Goblin, tried in vain to obtain ad-
mission. Miss Goblin. twentv-three
years old, is employed in the Quarter
masters Corps, and lives at PA Henry
Street. Miss Kahn, who is her chum.
lost her work as a saleswoman because
OF the arrest. She lives at 159 South
OCSouU OLrcoC, BROOKLYN.
Accosted by Lieutenants
While waiting for a car at Broad
way and Forty Street. the girls
told Judge Rosalsky, two armv lien
tenants came up to them and asked for
permission to take them to place Of
amusement. The girls refused. Gun
son, who said he saw the men sneak
TO the girls, inquired Of the officers -
they knew them. When the men told
MN they had not previously met them.
Gunson arrested the girls.
on Gunson's testimony the girls were
convicted before Magistrate Mancuso
IN the Women's Night Court, and after
spending four days in prison were al
lowed to SO on a suspended sentence
They were put on probation and ar.
dered to report once every week 70 a
probation officer.
The girls were forced to submit to a
physical examination by wonosn
physician Of the Board Of Health
"hen they learned the nature Of her
report they communicated with rela-
tives. Assistant District Attorney
Markewlch was appealed to and Will
1' Ivan LWDIee was engaged Az
counsel for the girls. An appeal was
taken from the decision Of Magistrate
Mancuso.
Policeman Condemned
Judge Rosalsky said to the girls:
There was not a scintilla Of ev,.
dcnce to warrant the arrest. Tho
conviction was wholly unwarranted bv
the facts. Both Of you are thorouehlv
respectable; both of you enjoy excel
lent regulations, and both Of you have
suffered through the action OF this
police officer who arrested you. I
want you to bring Il civil suit against
him, and you will collect damages.
And let this suit be lesson to police-
men,"
Denouncing Gunson for his action.
Judge Rosalsky said to him;
Your sister, my sister are not safe .
If men like you on tho police force
are allowed to go on without him
deranoe. Ii this Ia permitted no decent
girl can go cut on the street. Your
action cannot be too strongly con-
demned. The magistrate should be re-
buked,"

know, of noble life that is about
to address you."
The multitude Gained instantly
when the face of the friend that
never misled them appeared.
They listened to his words of
wisdom, and, at his request, dis
persed quietly that day, when the
city was at the mercy of an in
famed populace.
Listen to what this aged and
honored Philadelphian 49, almost
90 years old, whose card has lust
come in, appears piloted by his
two daughters-says, word for
word, to the writer:
DO you remember me, sir?
My store was just opposite to
yours in 1861, and l saw YOU
taking down your shutters the
first time.
Everybody said you were
foolish to start at such a time.
and prophesied your failure.
You handed your neighbors
the first card you printed, say
ing you would not sell clothes
with cotton in the cloth. One
of us said to you, DO you
really mean that?' and your re-
ply was, You may bet your life
on it. We certainly do mean
that And you fought it out
until the people knew and be-
lieved in you.
Then you moved up to 18th
Street, and we were all watch
ing you and doubling your sue
cess when you began the New
Kind OF Store, as you called it,
which seemed so hazardous
that it puzzled everybody when
you announced that your bust
ness would be strictly gov
erned by certain principles.
"And, by George! Here you
are yet, still keeping the faith
OF what you told US in 1861 and
what you told your customers
tor almost sixty years. What
nextW
Why, just this-we shall keep
straight on. The pendulum of
the old clock will swing right on
through all weathers and all
years, and we shall make good

Theodore Roosevelt.

Theodore Roosevelt Will go down In nAseorS aS
one of the greatest the United States ever pro
duced He was great statesman, warrior
teacher and politician Such treless energy and such
versatility seldom been compressed into single
unit of human tissue No one knew his powers bet
ter than he himself and therein lay his invinciblty
He was an ideal example Of the survival of the fit
test in public life That law governed both the be-
ginning and the end of his day of authority.
Roosevelt was as ambitious he was resource
full but even it must be said for him that he
usually was big enough for situation into which
ambition led him No justly accuse him OF
winning preferment by false pretenses. Not the
least evidence his greatness his appreciation
of the virtues publicity and the with which
he employed it. He seldom overlooked opening
to get his cause before the public and his methods
Will be initiated for long time before they i'm
proved upon.
Few even OF his political enemies ever have de-
MED that Roosevelt rendered a service to popular
government that else was well fitted to
perform When he came into the presidency special
privilege fostered by years Of favors at the hands
Of his party had built up series of defenses
that were all but impregnable. Roosevelt broke
them down and he did It with the force OF his sedge-
hammer blows through congress, in the press, with
the department Of justice and by means Of every
other agency that his disposal. His courage,
will power fighting spirit and tireless energy made
it possible for him to complete task that might
main unaccomplished to this day If he had not per-
formed it. The people owe him much, not only in
the United States, but wherever democratic govern
ment exists may arise He shattered not only the
bulwarks of predatory wealth, but also lot of
cumbersome and useless official form that stood
a barrier to progress.
As public Theodore Roosevelt may not
have been highly ornamental, but in his day he
extremely useful No honor do him will
be too great
