GRACE MAE KELLEY

In sad but loving remembrance of
my dear wife. Grace Mae >Kelley, who
departed this life one year ago, No
vember 23rd, 1920.
The month of November again is here,
To me the saddest of the year,
For it was on November day
That my dear wife passed away.
l never will forget you, Grace,
While in this life | stay;
My heart has never been the same
Since you have passed away.
We do not know the pain you bore,
We did not see you die:
We only knew you passed away
And could not say good-by.
Now your busy hands are folded,
Upon your peaceful breast,
You are safe in the arms of Jesus,
Your reward is eternal rest.
Friends may think l have forgotten
thee,
And my wounded heart is healed,
But they little know the sorrow,
That's within my heart concealed.
Death has claimed my dear wife,
ut seal upon her brow,
In the arms of her dear Saviour,
Grace is sweetly sleeping now.
By her husband,
EDWARD KELLEY.

So deli cately is the "selector" constructed and so rapidly will it operate that it is possible to put in operation any of twelve distinct controls in a peri cd of less than one second. That is to say, less than one second elapsed from the time any push-button on the automatic transmitter at the distant radio station is pressed until the con trol on the car Is functioning. Such speed of control has never before been accomplished. The car has been controlled equally well from an air, plane and from a ground transmitting station.

CAUSE OF ROW BETWEEN STAR
 MOVIE COUPLE
(By International News service)

Nby AAttIHdllOhdl ANtNS otINICtt
 NEW YORK, Sept 6. After reams of publicity, following Mrs. Geraldine FarrarTellegan's ejec- ton of her husbands cloths from their apartment, and denial Of homie privileges to Lou Tol,eFen, actor, q cloud of silence has settled over the family troubles of the famous and temperamental operatic star, and no one professes to know what is at the bottom of the squab- ble.
 There are indications that neith- CT Tellegen nor Geraldine is over much pleased with the way things are going as regards publicity. In that respect they are not alone, for James A. Stillman. muti-million- aire eX-banker, who is reported to have had some disagreement with his wife, also found newspaper no, toriety rather displeasing. it not to say, distasteful.
 Anyhow. Geraldine has found it is one thing to lock ones husband out of the house, even when he has been paying his portion of the bills, and quite another to have it all written up by the papers.
 BOTH ARE MUM
 Neither Lou nor Geraldine will gratify the ardent longing of some millions of readers to tell just what their fracas is all about.
 The Stillmans were not so retic- ent.
 Geraldine is now up in the Adiron. dacks.
 Not word is beinf said by either the operatice singer or her actor Spanish-French- Dutch American nus. band about divorce.
 Basil Lawrence. business manager for the play, Don Juan." in which Tellegen is to star, denied that ieal. ousy on the part Of Geraldine. be. cause Lou was returning to the love, act role and embracing stage-sweet- hearts again, was the cause of the family squabble.
 "Mr. Tellegan has been busy all summer rehearsing his part in Don Juan which is heavy one" said Lawrence. His part in the play is very heavy one, you know-he makes ardent love to twelve women.
 MAKES LOVE TO DOZEN
 MT. Tellegan has asked me to make statement to the newspapers.
 MT. Tellegen in May signed the contract to appear as the star in Don Juan We believed that there was no other man on the stage able to play the part-that of making love to twelve women at once. It is silly to say that Miss Farrar object ed to this-his making love to so many women on the stage.
 "As q matter of fact, Miss Farrer read the play, and Mir. Tellegen told us that she wanted to buy a share in it. She even went so far in the mat ter as to tell MT. Tellegen that she would arrange the incidental music for the production.
 "Mr. Tellegen feels very hut at the statement that he had nor paid his shara of home expenses or con. tributeC anything toward the support of the home
 Tellegen's secretary spent a whole day counting the neckties, socks, col lars and suits of the mantinee idol in a storage warehouse, where Gerry" Farrar had sent them

CITY OWNED STREET
RAILWAY IN BERLIN
OPERATING At LOSS
Increased Wages and Higher
Costs for Power Are Reasons
Given for Deficit.

Berlin. Dec. 13.-(Correspondence of
the Associated Press Street railways
in Berlin have been operated Mt loss
of 100000 marks during the first
nine months Of municipal ownership,
and in spite of increased fare it is esti-
mated this loss will reach 60,000,Oo0
marks before the end of the first year.
Fares already have been increased from
30 to so pfennigs and it is proposed to
further increase them to one mark.
Increased wages and higher costs for
mower are given as the chief reasons for
the large deficit.
Although employees have been given
several wage increases. demands for
more pay have been always pending,
with the threat of strike if they are not
granted
In view of the financial situation and
ever increasing wage demands it has
been suggested that q committee be
created to keep workmen informed about
the operation and cost of the street rail
way system, in the hope that well-in-
formed employees will be more moderate.
Some of the supporters of the municipal
plan say it is being discredited by work
men who make unusual demands and
threats.
They also demand more careful
check on the management of the street
railways, particularly with regard. to ex-
DenditureS.

Would Have Preachers
Practice Medicine to
Increase Their Income

LONDON. Correspondence Of the AS
ISOLATED Press).-A controversy is on
among the poorly paid section Of clergy
men who find themselves hard hit by the
high cost Of living over a novel sugges-
ton put forward by DR.. Robert Rem
tout, prominent Liverpool practitioner,
that the clergymen could augment their
incomes by acting as doctors as well
as parsons.
DR.. Rentoul advises young clergymen
to stuS medicine, take their degree and
combine body curing with soui-sa7ing
work.
Many clergymen do not look with favor
on the idea. They argue that they have
plenty to do already and that local prac-
titioners would bitterly resent competi-
ton from them. One wants to know
where poor curate is to raise the $3.50
necessary to qualify for a medical de
gree and others hold that within month
the clerice- medico's sermons would be
thin, and that the soul would suffer at
the expense Of the body"

kidnapping of Rich
Mystifies Police
OF Austrian City

Observation-Disclosures Of the
Associated Press. Mysterious kidnap-
ing Of rich Jews continues here and the
police seem unable to end it or to de-
tect the criminals.
Recently three wine merchants, who
had gone to the country disappeared.
The police followed their tracks to the
lake Balaton. where the water washed
ashore a boat, in which the hats of the
merchants were found. All further trace
was lost and their fate still is unknown,
although there is every indication Of muir

The case of Jacob Reissman, rich
piano manufacturer, belongs to the same
category Reissman was carried away
from his home in Budapest by three men
who pretended to be detectives of the
military police. Reissman vanished and
with him the contents of his safe. 1t is
considered certain that the unfortunate
manufacturer was robbed and killed al
though neither the perpetrators nor the
body of the victim were found.

Trading in Slaves
Revived In Angola,
Charge of Society

London Corresponding Of the As
sociated Press Charges that there has
been a recrGdescence Of slave trading
practices over wide areas IN Angola. a
Portuguese possession in West Africa,
had been presented to the assembly Of
the League of Nations. by the Anti-Slav-
ery and Aborigines Protection society
These charges are contained in the copy
of a memorial previously sent to the
British government including evidence
from Portuguese and other sources con-
corning alleged slave trading.
The society appealed to the League
Of Nations to take cognizance Of these
charges and, if possible. secure an ex-
haustive inquiry into the whole system
of Portuguese labor in West Africa.

POLICIES PROVIDED
To COVER LOSSES
IN IRISH WARE ARE
Insured Cannot Recover, How
ever, If Represented in an
Illegal Organization.

Dublin. Dee. 16.-Correspondcnce Of
the Associated Press. Insurance COM
panies, mostly English. have done brisk
business in ireland in issuing policies
againt loss due to civil connection.
Everybody has an uneasy feeling that
his house is not safe from the eouse-
quenccs of the conflict between the gov
eminent and its enemies. Many per
sons have suffered whom nobody intended
to iniure. The market for insurance
policies, therefore. has been very active.
New Policies Needed.
The ordinary fire and accident policies
expressly exclude damage from the re-
suits Of civil war or disturbances of pub
lie order which the new policies are
meant to cover 1t has been discovered.
however. that clause in many of the
new policies might render them value
less. and leave victim who had paid his
premium no better off than before.
1t Is provided that in order to recover
a loss the sufferer must be able to show
that neither he nor any of his servants
has been a member of an Illegal organiza-
ton responsible for disturbance. On the
face of it this seems reasonable, but
there are very many individuals and still
more important firms who could not an
TSwer for the political affiliations of all
the members of their staffS.
Union Properties Searched.
Lately some of the most respectable
firms in Dublin owned by unionists and
wealthy mon unconnected with politics
have been raidcd by the forces of the
crown in search of suspected employees
whose private affairs were entirely IN
known to their employers. If these en-
ployers started roofing out the Sim
Feiners from their staffs the unpopu-
arity thereby provoked might easily ruin
their business The facts throw an in
teresting sideIight on the ordinary con
duct of life in Ireland under guerilla
warfare.
Trouble has arisen by the action of the
British commission which since the great
war controls the sugar supply. 1t has is
sued instructions to English wholesalers
that they must not. while the present
disturbances continue supply Irish sugar
retailers with ANY sugar except for cash
down, and this order applies even to
firms whose solvency is undoubted.
