WHAT WAS THERE TO SAY7
Simple Prank Of Fate That Caused
Embarrassment Surely Hard Thing
to Explain Away.

The minister Of q certain small town
Indiana church recently held num-
Der of meetings for his young men
members, In which he warned them
against being frivolous In the choice of
wives. etc. Modest young women
should always be chosen" he quoted
and then delivered heavy TRADE
against the prevailing short skirts and
silk stockings.
Several of the young girls were rath-
er indignant and avoided the minister
for a time. But one day as he WIS
coming home from shopping for his
wife he met two who at first were
rather cold, but as the conversation
progressed became distinctly amused
and finally departed giggling. The
younger one fired this final retort:
"I'm glad you changed your mind on
some things, Reverend T."
The minister wondered on that last
speech all the way home. Then he re-
peated it to his wife. She looked at
him closely and then burst out laugh
ing. "No wonder" she exclaimed, and
held up for him to see the magazine
he was carrying.
Some way, in packing his bundles to-
gether he had turned 1t inside out and
there. facing the young women, had
been an advertisement of very fancy
rose-colored silk stockings ON a very
beautiful model.-Indianapol News.

PROSECUTION ENDS
IN B. R. T. WRECK
Case Against superintendent
Expected to Go to Jury
Tomorrow.
BRAKES DECLARED SOUND
More Evidence on Use of I'm
skilled MotOrmen Admitted
After Fight.

The case against Thomas r. Blewitt,
the b. r. T. division superintendent
who ordered Motorman Luciano to run
the train which was wrecked in the
Malbone street tunnel, may go to the
jury Saturday: A motion to dismiss
the Indictment was heard Just before
adjournment In Mineola yesterday and
was denied by Justice Seeger. Ex-
Judge Isaac ICELAND for the defence in
dicated that he will not question wit
nesSes to-day, but will stand on the
testimony SO far advanced The jury
was withdrawn during the argument
for dismissal.
Joseph C. Cannon. an equipment in
spector for the Public Service Commits
sion, was the principal witness for the
prosecution He said that except for
the pipes leading to the brakes control
the brakes and control equipment of
the wrecked head car were In perfect
working order. 1t was evident. he said,
that the pipes had been broken when
the car struck the walls of the tunnel
Only an excessively high rate of speed
could have caused the accident, he de-
clared. in answer TO a hypothetical
question put by District Attorney
Lewis.
on cross-examination Cannon quail
fed his previous statement by conced-
ing that 'once in a hundred chances"
the brakes could have been impaired
by dirt or foreign matter in the triple
valve. which would make the brakes
hard to operate.
The most damaging testimony at the
session was that Of FIVE B. r. T. en-
ployees, who said that although they
had never operated trains carrying pas
sengers they were put in charge OF
trains dhring the rush hours Of No
vember ! when a strike was in pro-
gress. Mr.. ICELAND made desperate at
tempts to keep this testimony out Of
the record, but Justice Seeger held that
1t was relevant
The State then closed It's case and At
torney Oeland asked for dismissal OF
the Indictment. Mr.. Lewis withdrew
two Of the misdemeanors alleged in the
first count In the argument on the
motion Mr.. Oeland said:
The proof now shows that this man
had considerable training in the oper-
alton Of cars. You can't conclude that
the lack of five hours training was the
approximate cause of the accident.
