(By Bert II. Moses In Newspaperdom)
In future years, the era In which
we now live will be called THE Age
of the Tin Can" The trend of the
times is toward over-standardization-
Originality and individuality are
dumped into the discard, and the
style of doing things shades off into
dull. neutral gray. In all lines OF hu-
man endeayor, their votaries get to-
gether, adopt so-called standards OF
practice, and arrange among themsel-
YES to do things by chart, foot-rule
and recipe. Departure from THESE
standards Ia considered unethical,
and he who dares to break away from
the oligarchy of his craft is cursed
nv the visitation Of ostracism. calum'
ny and the frigid mitt.
A professional man VINO adVertises

tising be Of great value in spreading
useful information among the people
and his fellow dispensers OF dope

his "ouack." A labor unionist VINO
refuses TO strike when his felioW
workers walk out is also unetnicai'
even though his refusal to throw UP

ROBBED OF ONLY
DEAR THING in
LIFE, SHE KILLS
New Orleans Woman Defends
Staying of Publisher in
Chicago Yesterday

Chicago, May 6. Mrs. Vera
Trepagnier of New Orleans, who
shot and killed Paul +. Volland, a
publisher, at his office yesterday,
talked freely to-day of the shooting,
the cause of which was a miniature
of George Washington. The paint
ing, which is more than a hundred
years old, was known as the John
Trumbell Miniature" she said 1T
was presented by Trumbell to
Virginia bride as wedding gift, and
many years later came into the pos
session of Mrs. Trepagnier, now a
widow sixty years old.
In my state men lie, gambl
cheat in business; but they do not
lay hands on women" she said.
Il cannot deny shooting Paul Vol
land; he choked me. l do not re-
member firing, but recall his say
ing, You've killed me-
Had Not Meant to Shoot
His fingers relaxed from my
throat and he fell before me. Then
/ grew faint and fell, too. | had not
meant to shoot him. He had robbed
me, i felt, of the only dear thing left
to me. fie had evaded me for two
years"
She said she was born in Belfast,
ireland, tne daughter OF a ShfpDuild-
er and came to America when a
small girl. She married Ellis Tre-
pagnier, of New Orleans, a sugar
planter, who died after the loss of
his fortune. Friends obtained for
her a position in Washington, she
said, where she met Volland He was
reputed a connoisseur on art and she
had studied art in her early days,
she showed him the miniature,
whose history he knew. He wanted
the publishers rights of reproduce
ton and they reached an agreement
as to royalties. Thereafter, she said,
she could get no satisfaction from
the publisher.
