PASSING Of NOTED
THEATRICAL HOTEL
RENDEZVOUS OF TING
WORLD IN BALTIMORE TO
BE WELFARE CENTER.
SALVATIONIsTs GET IT.
Will Convert 1t Into Hotel For Work
ing Girls And Maryland
Headquarters.

Soap, soup and salvation" instead
Of lobster and chorus girl will be the
order of the day hereafter at Joe" Tip
mans hotel, known all over the coun.
try as the Baltimore headquarters OF
the theatrical and sporting world, for
the Salvation Army has taken over
the hotel and will convert it into head
quarters for this division, with a hotel
for working girls, an auditorium and
other features to be added.
For a quarter of a century, when
it was known as Rielly's Hotel, the
four story building has been the gath
ering place of the moths which flittee
and fiuttered in Baltimore's white
light district hundreds of noted act
ors and actresses have stopped there
and pugilists whose names are ia.
miliar to hundreds of thousands have
gathered in its barroom to discuss past
victories and future events.
Now the hymns of the Salvationists
will echo where once the merry Tilt
of rousing songs sounded and demure
which once resounded to the clatter of
the high heels of the chorus girls.
In a way the passing of the hotel
Is tragedy in the life of Joe" Tip
man. 1t was his ambition, when he
bought the hotel last August, to make
it the clearing house for the sporting
world. Himself the hero of hundreds
of prize ring fights and known in all
The cities of the tPnfted = ana I'M
the large centers of England, Joe"
wanted to establish hotel where
thespians en- route from city to city
might always find friends and where
his companions of the squared circle
would find congeniak company.
But zoe" fell foul of the prohibition
aw. Last November he was sentenced
% four months in the City Jail,
punishment which his friends say he
took because he was too good sport
to throw responsibility on others.
While he was serving his term, Briga
der Escott, of the Salvation Army,
learned it might be possible to pur
chase the hotel, new structure huiIl
only few years ago to replace tits
one destroyed by fire.
Through the good Offices Of Warden
Lee, the real estate men who nego
lated the sale were admitted to
TJe's" cell and the bill of sale Was
signed.
Down from the walls have come

will replace the exhilirattng drinks
that formerly were served.

GERMANY SUBMITS
PREPARATIONS PLAN
Lays Before Conference Pro-
pOSdI in Three Parts.

Spa, Belgium, July 1.-THE German
Preparations plan is in three parts. 1t
was submitted to the conference with
the understanding that it must be ac-
cepted as a whole. The plan follows ::
Part 1, section 1.-The German gov
eminent considers that the purpose of
the present negotiations is to make A
hnal settlement of their entire obi
cations for reparatfons.
Section 1.-THE German government,
knowing that it is obliged under the
treaty to pay on May 1, 1920, 10000
100000 gold marks, considers that il
has already paid not only that sum,
but a much higher one, according to
its accounts.
Section 8 sets forth that in provid-
ing for the future the German govern
ment would be unable to fulfill its
obligations unless the German budget
can be balanced. =
Section provides that the measure
of Germany's ability to pay, owing to
her weakened economic structure, re-
quires that she should have necessary
1OOll, IOuueE, ana raw
materials.
Section names the prSQcipleS upon
which the German government con-
siders its payments should be regulat-
ed, (a) by annuities; (b) annuities to
be limited to 80 years.
Various other sub-sections affirm
that a certain sum should be agreed
upon, after the payment of which Ger
many should be completely free; that
the payment of this sum should be ar
ranged in various amounts; that
schedule should be worked out, and
that it should not be absolutely regu-
lar in character, because it is impos-
sible at the present time accurately
to estimate the economic position of
Germany for the next 30 years.

STRIKE RECORD FOR 1919
Total of 1874 Labor Troubles, Affect
ina over 4O0o,00o Workers.


Washington, July 12.-Strikes and
lockouts in the United States in 1919
totaled 1874 and affected more than
100000 workers, according to a re-
view issued by the department of la
Dor. Approximately one-half of. the
strikes occurred in five states-New
York, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Illinois.
Although there were 81 more labor
conflicts reported last year than in
1918 the total for 1919 was materially
under that of 1915 and 1917. On the
other hand, no strikes in 1918 involv-
ed as many as 10000 workers, while
no less than nine walkouts last year
interrupted the labor of more than
10000.
The departments review attributed
the absence Of violence in labor con-
troversies during 1919 to less frequent
sc Of strikebreakers.
Grand Pre-.
The Evangeline district Of Nova
Scotia is best seen by driving out
from the town of Wolfville, which
stands on the southern shores Of
Mfnas Basin. A drive of from ten to
twelve miles will give the visitor q
fair idea of the whole countryside
Passing over a ridge near the town,
the visitor comes to the Gaspereau
valley and the lake that gives the val
ley its name. Gaspereaux is the
French name of alewives, a kind OF
herring which abound in these wa
tiers. On all sides are orchards and
off to the left at the foot of a small
ridge is the hamlet of Grand Pre-. The
site of the old French village, close
to the railway station, is marked by
clump of willows, an old well, and
the cellars of a few cottages. From
this point the visitor may drive to
the north, across the expanse of fer
tile-dyked meadow that gave name 70
the village.

LAS VEGAS. Dec. 29.--Richard II.
Hanna, grand master, was the pfin-
oiphl speaker here at the installation
banquet OF Chapman Lodge No. ?, A.
F. and A. NJ. He spoke at length on
what the Masons OF today should do
to keep the order In the high place
Il has always occupied among the
fraternal organizations. Judge Hanna
spoke on the relief work that is be
ing done all over the country among
The sick ana distressed and urged
greater efforts along these lines. Ho
mentioned the plan OF the shriners In
Sew Mexico to fuiid hospital to
care Tor the crippled children of this
region and suggested more work in
this endeavor. Tho need for more
general education among the younger
pt cplo OF the country was stressed
and as an example OF our illitcracy
the fact that the average education
among the men serving id the army
during the great war was equal TO
that OF child In the fourth grade
was pointed out. The judge summed
up his remarks in the statement that
he desired to see Masons doing worth e.

ties rather than seeking perfection In

THE FIGHT JUST BEGUN

THE huge proportions of the Repub-
- lican landslide must not be per-
mitted to drive from that party an
abiding sense Of the profound response
bilities which it faces. The majorities
which rolled up against wisconsin will
be as readily turned upon Republican
ism four years hence unless record of
accomplishment can be produced in 1924
that will merit the stamp of the voters
approval. It will be huge task, beset
with handicaps bequeathed by the retir-
ing administration. If it is met with
resolute determination to produce re-
suits in accordance with the party's
platform, public confidence will be re-
tanned, but if the size Of the 1920 vote
fills the party with a false estimate of
its power, disaster will soon follow.
Republican officials in both State and
Nation must keep the public welfare
constantly before them, and bend all
their energies in its behalf. To do so is
not only sound morals but the best of
politics.
