Here and There.

There was an unwilling celebrant at
Ply mouth during the festivities In honor
OF the Pilgrim Fathers. She was the
Princess Wootonekanusks, a descendant
Of Massasoit, nine generations removed.
She did not want to attend, but being q
loyal friend to Mrs. Holmes, vice-regent
OF the Daughters OF the American Revo-
luton, consented. She said sadly:
"Why should be dragged to Plymouth
Ny Grandfather Massssolt should have
killed the Pilgrims instead OF helping
them. Then my people would not have
been killed and /, the last Princess OF
the Wsmpanoags, be left to live ont my
life alone in the land of my fathers.
King Philip was real man and did the
best he could to stamp out the white
man from these shores and honor him
for Ii. . do not know Of Q person
with Pilgrim blood In his veins who has
any respect for an Indian" The prin-
cess must be some reader for she added
"The way Germany went through Bel
GUM was nething compared to what the
Pilgrims did to the Indians In New Eug-
land. The Germans were simply trying
to get through-the Pilgrims were at
tempting to stamp out al Indian blood
so they could have our lands for their
own"

The distinction of being the first to do
anything, no matter what 1t may be, is q
distinction always remembered, even II
not sought. II We knew who the first
man was who got kicked by q mule,
quite likely we would raise q monument
to him. But il isn't mules the writer Is
talking about, but women. Frank A.
Threll Of Rocklsnd has the distinction
OF being the irst lawyer to challenge q
prospective woman juror. 1t was Mrs.
Elizabeth Gregory Of Rockport. She
was challenged because she showed back
bone. It is said with modern dresses
any woman shows more backbone than
Q man; but this was not case Of decol-

On October o will occur the fiftieth
anniversary of the great klck-that is
when Mrs. O'Lesry's COW kicked over
the lantern, which set fire to the city OF
Chicago. Perhaps this COW has been the
most widely known bovine In the coun-
try; but now the Chicago Historical So
oiety has become jealous Of her fame,
and 10 trying to prove that her kick did
not do the job. 1t 10 admitted the fire
started In Mrs. O'Leary's COW shed but
they say It was after milking time, 80
there could not have been any lantern
there. Thus another fact has been
turned into myth, and follows in the
wake of William Tell and other like
celebrities.

REMEDY SUGGESTED
FOR BONDING EVILS
District Attorneys Would Hold
Accused 43 Hours Without
Bail in Certain Crimes.
WOULD CURB MAGISTRATE
Chief Assistant Asks Courts
to Demand Higher In

AS 3 result Of the evils revealed in
the operation of the present criminal
bail bonding system remedial measures.
some OF which will involve legislation
ara being discussed Pending a COM
plete report which probably will follow
the completion of the John Doe inquiry
now under way the Assistant District
Attorneys who are conducting the eX-
animation have suggested. it was
learned yesterday, that the law be so
amended that defendants charged with
crimes of violence must be held forty
eight hours without bail and that in
stead of the Magistrates being permitted
to tx bail, as is permissible under the
present statutes. bail in such cases be
determined only by the judges of the
higher courts.
Joab IT, Banton. the newly appointed
Chief Assistant District Attorney. con-
ferred in his office yesterday with the
various Deputy Assistant District At
torneys who are assigned to the City
Magistrates courts. He instructed them
10 urge upon the Magistrates that high
bail should be demanded in all cases
ivolving charges of robbery. burglary
and other crimes of that nature.
In that way more time would be
gained, he pointed out, SO that victims
would have an opportunity of identifying
the robbers or burglars Where very
heavy bail is exacted a greater time
usually is required for defendants TO
obtain it.

POLITICIANS IN A HOLDUP
Three Masked Men Who Rob
Patrons in SeiGel's Restau-
rant Leave No Trace.

An attempted robbery, in which the
policemen were sitting, the arrest of
a man on charges alleging he wrote
Black Hand letters to his brother, and
an attempt TO rob freight cars along
the river front, were the outstanding
incidents yesterday in the crime situa-
ton. Scores of detectives were busy
all day trying TO learn the identity of
the three bold youths who held up
Michael Cruise, Deputy City Clerk,
and nine other men in a restaurant at
Third avenue and Twenty street
late Friday night.
The police are satisfied that the
bandits who entered Seigel's res
taurant at $40 Third avenue, Friday
night, had observed closely the move
ments of the policeman on post. When
they entered the restaurant the police
man was reporting to his precinct
from a telephone box at Third avenue
and Twenty street. There also
was one of the Police Department
new motorcycles equipped with side
cars less than three blocks away. All
of these policemen came on the jump
when Daniel Lambert, clerk of the
Children's Court. blew a police whistle
from a window directly over the res
taurant.
Mr.. Cruise said yesterday that he had
bade his diamond stickpin and wallet
farewell when one of the thieves backed
him up again the wall at the point of a
pistol The thief was about TO search
his pockets when Mr.. Lambert, who had
slipped out of the room unseen. started
blowing the whistle. The bandit then
backed toward the door and admonished
the persons in the restaurant not to fol-
low If they cared for their lives.

The proprietor of the restaurant.
which has been the meeting place of
politicians for years. had gone upstairs
with the days receipts just few min
utes before the bandits entered. When
one of the robbers pushed a revolver
into the ribs of the bartender the latter
laughed. thinking 1t was good joke.
But when the intrduer said Throw up
your hands or I'll blow you to hell, the
bartender elevated his arms. The thief
then went to the cash drawer ard re-
moved $40.
In the meanwhile the robbers two
partners were devoting their attention
TO the men In the rear room who had
been playing pinochle. Mr.. Cruise and
Mr.. Lambert were among these. Mr..
Cruise said he also thought IL was a
Joke at first when two men wearing
masks pushed their way into the room

later. Jacob Keith and Jacob Fritsch
lost $50 and $50 respectively
