Four times, with not the slightest

When the fourth came, 'Look herer ~

She looked up gently and as George

be established at the Battery if the
fiftyfour undesirable aliens now await

said the women who participate in it
would face the Goddess of Liberty"
I'VE will take this MEANS" she said,
"to bring to the attention of the au-
thorities the sentiment against de
portation. There is strong body of
women in New York who are awake
to the menace that now threatens the
fundamental rights of the people in
the Republic, and they will act to call
the attention of the officials to the
inhumane manner in which these fifty
four persons have been shut off from
the outer world"
Mrs. Neumann- Zilbermann was au-
thorized by the Peoples Leauge of
Brooklyn to attempt to obtain a per-
NIT to visit the prisoners, she says,

s1Great Jewel Robbery
Only a Woman's Whim
After Police Had Worked Hard
Mrs. Henry Prince Recalled
Where Her Gems Were

The absent -mindedness Of Mrs. Henry
Prince, of 1895 Madison Avenue, gave
detectives Of the East Eighty eighth
Street police station an uncomfortable
night Friday, when she reported to
them the loss of jewels valued at $40
600
The complaint to the police stated
that Mrs. Prince had the jewels in her
handbag and had boarded Fifth Ave
nue. bus at 145th Street and Riverside
Drive on her way home. When she
reached her room, she said, the jewels
were missing.
There was an immediate search Of
all Fifth Avenue buses and the streets
over which Mrs. Prince had journeyed,
and late Friday night the detectives
called at her home to report that they
had made no progress. Then the de-
tectives were shocked. Mrs. Prince
told them she had found the jewels
under her pillow where she had left
them, forgetting to take them with her.

League Says Women
Are OyerWOrked at
Traction Stations
Recommends Shorter Hours.
Less Days a Week and No
Night Work as Impera-
tive to Conserve Health

The Conspmers' League has COM
pleted an investigation of conditions
under which women are employed by
transportation companies as ticket
choppers. The study has shown, ac-
cording to the league, that girls under
twenty one should not be employed in
this work, that shorter, working hours
are needed, also a reduction of the
number of work days per week, and
that the abolition of night work is i'm
perative if the health and the morals
of the women in this occupation are
to be conserved
The results Of the investigation have
been set forth by the league in a state
ment showing that to-day about half
of the subway and elevated stations in
New York have women at the ticket
boxes and tending the gates. A year
ago, says the report, employment of
women in this capacity was almost un-
heard of.
Some Work Fourteen Hours Day
The women who are filing these
positions, the report further shows,
find that the good pay cannot compen-
safe for the disadvantages of the work
1T points out that on most of the lines
women are on duty seven days q week
twelve hours each day, with a half
hour for lunch, from a. m to 7 p M,
or vice versa. If their station is a
busy one, those on the night shift must
arrive at p. m. and be on duty four
teen consecutive hours, with only a
half hours relief at midnight
"You might as we'll be dead" said
one woman interviewed by members of
the Consumers League. "It's dark
when you leave home in the morning
and when you get back at night. You
can never do anything but wash and
tumble into bed"
Beginners are generally placed on
night shifts, regardless of their age.
Some were physically unable to stand
during the day even after weeks Of
night work
Unfit for Young Girls
According to women interviewed, it
was agreed that the work is unfit for
a young girl. The younger girls ad-
mtted they were annoyed by men.
'Its not only the drunks," said an
English woman who has been in this
country three years. 81 don't mind
them. but everybody is so rude! I've
never seen or imagined such rough, un-
civil treatment as the American people
give their women ticket choppers"
In spite of the generally mild win
ter, many complained bitterly of the
cold, and several traced cases of bron-
chitis, grin and heavy colds to expo
sure and dampness of the subway sta
tions. This was in spite of heavy cloth
ing and the utilization of arctics, Ian
terms, hot irons, blankets, boxes and
mats to warm their feet.

The Duo>Art Piano is fully worthy such

beyond computation. By means of the
special music rolls referred to in connection
with these great musicians, the Duo>Art
Piano will reproduce their playing with
such absolute fidelity of detail, that the
reproduction is not to be distinguished from
the original performance.
This means, nothing more nor less, than
that the possessor of Duo>Art Piano
commands the services Of Paderewski, Fof>
mann, Bauer and all the other famous
musicians who are making Duo<Art Music
Rolls, to play for him at his will, for his
pleasure, benefit and educational advantage.

FARMER TELLS OF

the wheat rust:
with your permission, I will state
my observations in regard to the black
rust on wheat. notice in one of your
late issues that Prof. E. 7. Stakman
takes exception to an article on rust
printed in the Journal. His statements
amused me-a ebay seed" who has
raised wheat all his life. don't want
to take issue with the professor in re-
gard to the Burberry bush being a
spreader of rust, and will tell the farm
ers to destroy all the barberry bushes,
but claim you will still get the rust.
also claim that the black rust is a
disease Of the grain and the soil, and
great amount of damp cool vapor helps
it along.
The professor tells how the spores
travel. want to ask: If the Burberry
is the cause Of all the rust, why does it
