Young Boy Takes Erring Step
A young lad made a big mistake on
Monday evening when he chose this
town as place to make money in a
dishonest way by forging q check. When
he learned his trick was discovered he

CHICAGO FIRES EXTRAS.

To the Editor of The Star:

to the disastrous Chicago fire of 1871.

or the other. since that event oc-

Members of the Dali have agreed to make no
public addresses during the recess, either for or
against ratification, but it is cxpected that others
will do some vigorous campaigning in the interim.
SO far as there has beenean indication of sentiment
in southern Ireland it appears to be overwhelmingly
in favor Of ratification. ~ Several municipal bodies
have adopted resolutions in favor Of acceptance. De
Valera during the debate admitted that the Irish
people were in favor Of the treaty, but said that
their attitude would change if the assembly took a
strong position against it. The general impression
seems to be that De Valera's leadership has been
discredited by his persistence in fighting for the TN
attainable when a mere nod Of the head will bring
freedom, peace and security on honorable terms.
President Harding, acting presumably on the
advice Of Attorney General Daugherty, has ordered
the Christmas day liberation of some two dozen per-
sons imprisoned for various terms for ofenses more
or less directly connected with the war. Chief
among the prisoners is Eugene ". Debs, whose
friends have persisted in the declaration that he was
being prosecuted for his political opinions. OF
course this is utterly false. Debs was convicted of
interference with the war activities of the govern
ment. More creditably than many lesser offend
ers, he admitted the accuracy Of the charges, de-
clared that he would repeat his acts under similar
circumstances, and declared that he had been fairly
tried and fairly convicted under the evidence. The
sole defense which he offered was that the govern
nlent had no right to interfere with him in the com
mission of his scditious acts.

N WATTERSON.

Marse Henry is gone. An eloquent voice is
stllled; a great soul is passed on; the memory of a
great American remains.
Henry Watterson was the last of the group of
journalists whose individuality was the recognized
and compelling influence in the great newspapers
which they had created and through which they
spoke. In this group were Greeley, Pulitzer, Ray
lnond, Dana and the elder Bennett. and a few others
whose newspapers were famous and forceful because
OF the recognized connection between newspaper
and man. One of the best known Of these, and per-
haps the best loved of all, was Watterson.
Watterson became endeared to his public.
which was a very large one, by the mellowness of his
and downrightness of his character. He was a man
Of strong and positive convictions. He took sides.
He made up his mind as to what was right, and then
he declared himself for what he believed to be right.
There was no trimming or straddling with him. A
master of clear and forceful expression, those who
read his utterances were never in doubt as to his
meaning. The picturesque embellishments which
made his articles a delight were never used to con-
.ceal his thought or confuse the reader, butTather to
ton which stood out in everything that he wrote.
When the nation appeared to be at the point Of
dissolution Watterson hoped that the states might
remain together. When, contrary to his Judgment
his state declared Tor its secession. Like Lee and a
host OF other southern men, he went with his state,,s'
|conceiying that to his state his first allegiance was
due. As a soldier he fought like a hero, and when
At was apparent that the cause in which he had en-
listed had failed, he accepted defeat like a man and
|earncstness and yigor. He had taken up arms with
the south without reservations, and his acceptance
OF the new order Of things was equally without res
~ervation. ince the collapse of the cause OF secession
the American nation has had no more loyaI citizen
than Henry Watterson.

AUSTIN PLEADS GUILTY
Man Accused In Sharon Hin Murder
Admits Completely in Crime

Media. Pa. June 2S.-John Austin.
a Negro, who was chased through eight
States by Detective F.. G. Crawford. OF
New York, and finally arrested for MUIR
der in the mountains near Morgantown.
w. Va. pleaded guilty yesterday TO sec
ond degree murder for his part in the
slaying Of John Dalton. son of DR..
David Dalton. Of Sharon Hill. last July.
Judge johnson suspended sentence until
Thursday morning to give counsel op.
portunity TO prove that Austin had
never served time in Southern peniten-
tiaries.
The plea of second degree murder
came as a surprise. because Austin had
testified during the trial of his confed-
crate that he had nothing to do with
the murder. but stood behind a tree and
witnessed Roanoke Jasper and Walter
Lewis shoot Dalton. Lewis was con.
victed of murder IN the first degree.
District Attorney William Taylor de-
clared yesterday that although Jasper
had escaped conviction Of murder, new
srtheless he will be tried for highway
robbery. burglary and assault and bat
tery with intent to kill.

GOOD FAIRIES WANTED
chlldren's Books Would Add to

Are there any good fairies in Phila-

II there are, all they need to do is TO

starved for this necessity, who attend
the playground Of the Friends Neigh
borhood Guild, at Fourth and Green

It Is estimated by officers Of the guild
thai ! rer cent of the cast of romance
of the city in the shape of fairy tale
books, tales Of adventure like Steven
sons Treasure Island" or kipling,,s
Captains Courageous" or any. good;
wholesome juvenile literature would
transform decided lack into a gen

young readers.
The library in the "book corner" OF
