she gave him a birthday gift of socks
at that time.
Did you get birthday present last
year," asked Oswald.
why, yes, two pairs Of socks" said
Harris.
''Who gave them to yoU?"
MY wife," said Harris, with hesita-
ton.
But you said your wife. was in St
GATHERINGS at this time"
ooh, we'll, you've caught me. The
whole thing is a fake said Harris,
with a hopeless gesture.
At noon today Harris was taken to
the district attorneys office and con-
fronted with his wife. After he ad-
mitted the hoax he was returned to
his cell and ordered held without bail
in solitary confinement. This was
done, police said, at the request of De-
tective Oswald The wife was re-
turned to her cell also.

here at II o'clock tonight.
We'll, it looks as if your bird has
flown said the former governor, who
had been notified by telegram that
Harris had repudiated his confession.
Nevertheless, Mr.. Whitman and Cap
tain Carey determined to question IIar-
ris and went to the district attorneys
office. Harris was taken there from
the police station, where he has been
held, and his wife was brought from
another station. They were questioned
behind closed doors.
Before the arrival of Mr.. Whitman,
newspaper men had been allowed to
question Harris at the police station.
The prisoner seemed to be on the
verge of a nervous collapse.
In response to questions, Harris adj
mitted that he had repudiated his
confession of the Elwell murder Sat
urday night after a New York detec-
tive had questioned him and his wife.
"What was your object in telling
the story in the first placer" Harris
was asked.
'T was sick of life and everything in
general and I was determined to go
the limit" he replied.
Il made up my mind had disgraced
my people for the last time; that this
time would be the last, even if I went
to the chair for it,
"Then you meant to commit sui
cider"
well, you can put it that way"
Asked Why he had changed his story,
Harris said it was because he couldn't
get away with it,
'I would have stuck to it if could"
he added.

DAMAGE DONE BY
THE CABBAGE BUG
Preventative Measure More Success
full Than Killing the Pest.

Are you acquainted with the Harle-
quin cabbage bug? Have you had such
Of your vegetables as cabbage, collards,
lettuce, etc. eaten in summer by red,
yellow and black bugs? That bug is
the Harlequin cabbage bug.
The mouth of this bug is adapted
for piercing the tissues and sucking
the sap of growing plants. 1t attacks
the leaves, vines, tendrils and stems.
The bugs increase rapidly during the
summer, the increase during the sea-
son, If unmolested, being enormous.
Soon after the first frost of early
winter the adults and nymphs crawl
between and into the folds of leaves
of old plants. under rubbish at the
base of cabbage stalks and under Nl-
most any convenient thing. All the
nymphs perish during the winter, as
do many adults. Warm, sunny days
tempt them to feed; then sudden cold
snaps, which are certain to follow,
are their undoing.
Warm DAYS early in the year bring
the bugs into action. They attack
the first wild plants, related to the
cabbage. that come with spring. AS
spring and summer come on they at
liSh SuClA Nt6GliDLC pAeillS as LulH4pSS
Brussels sprouts. cabbage, kale, COL
lards, cauliflower, mustard rape, egg
plant, asparagus, potato, tomato, okra,
beans and beets.
Insectides that kill the bugs will
also destroy the plants. therefore pre-
ventive measures must be taken. Pro-
fessor ]. r. Watson. entomologist of
the Florida experiment station, rec
ommends the following:
/. Clean up all old plants about the
garden or field as soon as the crop
has been removed. Burn the plants and
bugs.
2. Clean up weeds and rubbish near
the cabbage field or garden; burn all
such rubbish in fall or early winter.
3. Trap crops of mustard and otner
early related plants, planted in spring,
to be destroyed by spraying, will get
the bugs not destroyed In the fall. AS
soon as all the bugs have attacked the
trap crops. spray with kerosene emul-
sion, Is TO 20 per cent strength or
burn with hand torches.
1. If any bugs miss the above treat
ment and get on the main crop, 1t will
pay to hand pick them at the first ap-
pearance. Pick and drop into a pan OF
kerosene, and burn.
5. If bugs are missed by any or all
of the above methods, they wilt Jay
many eggs in masses that are readily
found. Gather and crush the eggs.

who are inclined in this way, and II an
erort were made to organize them, there
would be very little difficulty In so doing.
why they have not extended their hand OF
philanthropy In this way is because they
could not find the opportunity.
You might say, "Glve tho money 20 char
liable organizations who are caring for the
orphans, for the unemployed" etc. But lot
me tell you. Mr.. Editor. more every day
the people arc inclined toward individual
charty. Thoy want to distribute their char
ity in the way they think best, and there
Is great diversity OF opinion in this re-
spect. They want to see the development
Of their effort and not contribute their money
and let other people direct its expenditure.
for such distribution is very frequently not
ds to their wishes.
have often wondered that there was not
an effort In charity In this way. The young
man OF today-let me say the boy--is going
to be the future American citizen. and on
the way he is educated and trained Is going
to depend much Of the future of our coun-
try. Why not start an adopted SON. or

accomplished; how many men and women
would respond and what n wonderful amount
OF good would be accomplished?

Whv Wait?

To the Editor Of the Evening Public Ledoer:
Sir know prominent mnnufa cturer,
with mills in tho KcnsinRton section, who.
when ! asked him why tho mills did not
open up. said TO me that tho owners were
waiting until after the first OF the year.
in the late summer they found themselves
with large stocks of manufactured stocks
on hand which they had made during the
war. and they closed their places simply
because they wanted to get rid Of this stock
During. tho war there was great demand
for goods, but soon as the war was over
the lighters returned to work. and tho coun-
tries which used to depend almost entirely
on America for It's supplies no longer sent
their ordcrs to this country because they
could get their supplies at home.
This left the market In all lines IN
America glutted. and now that these stocks
are nearing exhaustion It is too close TO the
new year to begin manufacturing. but in
stead the mill and factory men feel that
then start the now year with ''clean
slate"
This sounds reasonable, but feel. az
told him. that 1t was a selfish way of look
ing at tho situation, for by so doing the
manufacturers were keeping thousands OF
are today, many Of them. struggling to keep
their heads out OF wCtcr and see that their
families are not submerged.
ThCgs mill and factory men made large
fortunes during tho war, and they should
take broader view of the matter than
for them? The YER, men who are today
begging them for work and are being turned
away IN a hcartless manner. Every man
who IS keeping his place OF business closed
in this Industrial depression Is shirking a
moral obligation that he owes to his fellow
man cannot conceive any Christian man
doing this. HENRY 7. FLETCHER.

Why Unemployment sl.us.,on9

TO the Editor Of the Evening Public Ledoer:
er-i have been trying 70 flguro out why
there should be an unemployment situation
IN the United States at this time. The war
mas been ovef several years and IL cost the
Government from fifteen to eighteen billions
o. uoHars. the money going into the hands
OF the people. It created many million
ARES, IL IL true but II also gave large bank
accounts to many thousands of our people
who never before had deposited a cent for
tho future - 1''
All this money is in the hands OF tho peo-
pie. ana has been CLEANED from the mill
,o .no manufacturer. tho real estate
man. etc, etc.. through taxation. Why,
theh, with all this money in tho hands OF
the people, should there be n slump Surely
.he manufactured material during tho war
mas oeen exhausted by this time In the
last three years the men who made largo
salaries In Government work have spent
literally. What has become OF the money?
why arg the mills and factories closed
against production?
There are but one OF two things or prob
ably both. that have brought about this CON
dition' each one OF which should be rene
died' IL not by reason,I then by force
believe the manufacturers are holding of in
production TO force n bare market thereby
giving thom the opportunity TO boost prices
when thoy resume. and they are also trying
to force down the cost OF labor through
bringing the working people almost to the
starving point This our Government should
NV p'Ap"' Nuu bluSe tncy can commander
tho lives of the people. forcing them to no
to war. they should. II anything, more
easily be able TO comma ndeer the places of
production. taking them over and starting
them up to give employment 20 those who
need Il.
Another reason for the present depression
Ia the feeling that has gotten into the gem
eral public that prices are too high and
they are compelling. through an economical
strike. tho manufacturers and merchants to
force down the high cost of living by con-
serving their spending to tho actual necos-
stiles OF life. This also Is wrong but II Ia
something that cannot be prevented.
The only thing to do Is TO strike a happy
medium to bring about normal condition
In the way Of employment. After sane con-
sideration both sides responsible should see
the true light and change the conditions In
order that prosperity may return. There is
no better time than tho present holiday sea-
son to think this matter over. and II is to
bn hoped that with the dawnnB OF the new
year will zee the financial and economic
conditions entirely changed in Il way that
will bring US back to the normal state that
existed previous to tho recent war.
