Jolly, round, bright Mr.. Sun poured
down his hottest rays. The Merry
Little Breezes appeared to have gone
to sleep. Farmer Browns Boy
couldn't remember ever having worked
on hotter afternoon. He no longer
whistled. The fact is he was too
worried to whistle. From time to
time he could still hear Bowser's
voice, but it was no longe- full and
strong. In fact it was little more than
series of yelps and these yelps
came only at intervals. But by the
sound of them Farmer Browns Boy
knew that Bowser was still running.
He knew that the periods Of silence

because Bowser was too tired to use

went to Newport to attend the wedding
of Katherine Urquhart, relative Of
Mrs. Sillman. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Still
man were there and he drove back to
New York with them, he declared. He
particularly recalled the incident, be-
cause there were so many bottles of
champagne in the car that they were
crowded. This was subsequent to the
birth of Guy.
In an attempt to offset the testimony
of the "ladder and keyhole" witnesses
at the bedside of Mrs. Stillman in
Canada, Clawson told of visiting the
banker and his family at Lake Coch-
aigne. He and the other guests went
in and out of Mrs. Stillman's bedroom
as matter of course, he said, and
chatted with her in the morning, as she
was in the habit of lying late.
Cross Examination To-Day
Letters written by this witness to
his mother, who has since died, were
used to refresh his memory of these
instances. They were later admitted as
evidence. He will be cross-examined
first thing tomorrow morning.
Frank Murphy, former steward of
the yacht Modesty, told Of being en-
ployed by the banker as valet of
2iU Park Avenue. he later became
his steward on the Modesty. One
afternoon Mrs. Leeds and girl friend
came aboard, received bouquets of
flowers, had dinner and spent the night
on the yacht, according to Murphy
The next visitor was Helen" the CO
respondent known as the society wom-
an. She had tea and sandwiches with
Mr. Stillman, he said, and left the boat.
They returned later and drank char
treuse, champagne and beer After
Helens departure Mrs. Leeds came on
board. Murphy told of the constant
presence of the former show girl on
the yacht when it lay off Miami. She
and the banker frequently played golf
together, he said. He told of one oc-
casion when he watched them in the
social half of the boat. Mrs. Leeds
was sitting on the bankers knee and
was kissing him. Murphy sWore

Road. to collect bill for friend.
Yesterday in Flatbush Court he charged
Mr.. Baylen and his wife, Eva, with dis

as Exhibit A to prove it, He also en-
tertained private doubts of the friend

The attack began shortly after Mr..
Triboy entered the Baylen domicile,
bill in hand, the complainant charged.
He had called several times before, he
said, 'on the same errand, and they knew
him. He was invited into the front

Builders Refuse to
Discuss Wage Cut
With Employers
Workers Council Insists
ON 1921 Contract Scale;
Board of Governors to
Take Action Wednesday

The Building Trades Council, repre-
senting about 100000 men in the build
ing industry here, declined to discuss
with the Building Trades Employers
Association yesterday the latter's pro-
posal of reduction Of 81 day in the
workers pay.
In communication to the employers
the council insisted that the matter al
ready was disposed of in the 1921 con-
tract between the workers and associa-
ton members. This agreement, they
pointed out, does not expire until De-
cember 81. The decision was referred
to the board Of governors of the asso-
citation, which will take it up next
Wednesday.
The employers contend that cut is
necessary at this time because the con-
tractors refuse tu go ahead with build
ing projects under the present scale.
Charles G.. Norman, chairman of the
board of governors, said:
eve may be able to do something
with the plasterers, stonecutters, brick
layers and painters, as those unions
are not members of the Building
Trades Council, but l don't see what
we can do in the case of the refusal of
the council to consider our proposition.
We are under contract with the or
ganization until the end of the year,
and we will live up to our agreement.
at will be different story, however,
when the housing program is completed
about October l. when most of the
apartments now under construction
must be ready for occupancy. We will
be unable to take further contracts and
the men will find themselves idle
throughout the winter. Architects tell
us that there is plenty of work to be
released as soon as wages are reduced"

Baylen is said to have called upon his
wife to fetch the revolver, saying, "l'll
reach him with that"
Mr.. Triboy said that Mrs. Baylen
proved to be good and obedient wife,
and that she came in presently with a
revolver and directed him to hold up
his hands. When he did so, he said,
Mr.. Baylen struck him. Every time
he was moved to lower his hands for
the purpose of self-defense Mrs. Bay
len, Mr.. Triboy said, made such signif-
icant gestures with the revolver that
he put them up again, whereupon Mr..
Baylen would punch him once more.
This, according to Mr.. Triboy, kept
up until Mr.. Baylen was worn out with
exertion. Then he was allowed to de-
part, bearing with him the uncollected
bill and the warning of the Baylen
family never to come again. The ad-
vice was we'll meant, but entirely un-
necessary, he said.
Magistrate Reynolds held Baylen in
$500 bail. Mrs. Baylen was held in
$1,000 bail because, in addition to her
part in the alleged disorder, she is said
to have welded the revolver. Both
cases were scheduled for July &c.

New Traffic Rule Tried
Above Columbus Circle
South Bound Vehicles Being
Diverted From Central Park
West at ODD Street

With an idea of clearing up the traf-
fic congestion at the lower end of Cen
trail Park West and in Columbus Circle
the police are trying out new regula-
ton affecting motorists driving on
Central Park West. This is south
bound one-way street. At Sixty-third
Street motorists are required to turn
west to Broadway and cross over there.
This relieves the tangle of traffic at
Columbus Circle, caused by holding up
northbound vehicles which mass at
that point, to allow southbound auto
mobilists issuing from Central Park
West to go ahead. The scheme will
have the usual two weeks try-out and
if satisfactory will be made permanent.
Those bound for coast points in New
Jersey will find a detour on the road
between Morgans and Matawan. If
possible the regular road under con-
struction between these points should
be used because the detour is extreme
ly bad. Between Redbank and Sea-
bright the Rumson Road should be
used, as the other road is under con-
struction.
There is a celebration going on this
week in Suffern, N. Y, to mark the
opening of Lafayette Avenue. This
road is the connecting link between
Suffern and Nyack, a road which has
been in bad condition for several
years. 1t is now one of the finest con-
crete roads in the state. This is the
first state road completed under Gov
ernor Miller's administration. The
opening of this highway eliminates
detour which has been in existence for
five years.

force so he could look for crumbs and
fragments from Lucifer's table. I'm
able to find anything of the kind he
was looking for he put up a job by
renting a room and placing another
moralist in the closet and then en-
ticing the chambermaid into the
room on some pretext and then seek
ing to tempt her. She exhibited good
character, declined his advances and
retired to the office and said nothing
about the incident. He and his wit
ness were peeved and filed a Grim
inal complaint against the girl charg-
ing her with making advances to
him, and 1t was only after nasty
legal fight in the police court that
she was able to break down their
testimony and establish the truth of
the situation and even then the per-
jurers walked out of the court scott
free.
That was only one of many rotten
things that came to light in the OPP
erations Of Boise while 1t was in the
hands of the alleged moralists. Only
few days ago there died in Boise a
noble old. lady, whose life was
blighted for time by great scandal
made up and circulated about her.
1t took the combined efforts Of some
of the best men and women Of the
city to run the matter to earth and
silence the scandal mongers and
then there was no way to punish
them.
Boise finally got it's tummy full of
these folks who are forever worrying
about the conduct of others. When
it found that some of the leaders Of
these alleged moralists were opera
ing species of private red lights
with public money and had been do
ing it for long time, they woke up
from their blindness, asked for and
received some designations and gave
the offenders little time to get out
Of the state because they judged that
some righteous prosecutions would
hurt the cause"
Boise knows now that there are
worse things than short sleeves and
walking skirts. 1t has tried 1t and
paid for the information.

WILL THEY NEVER
LEARN ANYTHING?

People whose minds are dwelling
much on the subject of how the
women dress, should calm them.
selves and indulge in smiles of toll.
GRAFTON while they reflect upon the
history and experience OF the ages
The peoples of the southern seas
were perhaps the most moral and the
most beautiful and most healthy
people on the face of the earth when
civilized men discovered and began
to affiliate with them in the past
two or three hundred years, and
they went as nearly naked as any
women in the world. 1t was only
when so-called Christian nations
mixed with them and tried to work
them over to our ways of living that
a blight swept them rapidly from
earth.
The Japense wore modest clothing
excepting when they went in bath
ing, and then they wore nothing at
all, and the sexes mingled like
animals and were as moral as ami
mails while bathing. The Koreans
segregated boys and girls rigidly till
marriage and they were not more
moral than the Japanese and were
less progressive. The Turks do not
permit their women's faces to be
seen by the public and the Turks are
not at all moral. The black races
in their native land did not wear
much clothing and their propensities
and lack of restraint are proverbial
whether running free in their native
land or dressed according to Ameri-
can customs. In short. clothing has
not been the controlling factor in
peoples morals, and has had little
or nothing to do with it excepting as
finicky people have given attention
to 1t and set it up as standard and
recognized it.
fitted up in America. Society people
talked it over and said that person
would have to undress in order to
use it and that it was immodest and
immoral. Physicians fell in with
public opinion and said that people
would be likely to take cold by u.s.
ing it, and the two agitations
against the bath tub resulted in
several cities enacting ordinances
forbidding their use from November
till May. Some of them tried to for
bid their use at all, but physicians
did not say they would be dangerous
to health in summer SO they had to
allow their free use in mild weather.
But the bath tub had reasons for ex-
istence and it kept proving them.
Altho it was misdemeanor to battle
in winter, some people kept doing it
and the officers could not catch them
at it, so there was no way to enforce
the ordinance, and one by one the
cities repealed the law, Boston re-
pealing it in 1866 and throwing the

ever: That at the front and i'm
mediately under the chin, the dress
shall not fail to cover and hide from
view all that portion of her skin ly-
ing below the pit of the neck at the
edge of the collar bone
Pretty stiff ordinance that! But
there seems to be more to it. Peek
a-boo waists that man can see thru
with more or less success are also
taboo. And If any undergarment is
worn that looks more or less like a
woman's skin, then the wearer of
such undergarment is committing q
misdemeanor and is subject to ar
rest.
The ordinance was brought to the
attention of benighted world by an
associated press dispatch last We'd
nesday when Mrs. Sarah Johnson
of Zion city was pinched and taken
into police court. Somebody, pre-
sumably the officer, had seen parts of
her arm below the elbow or at least
above the middle of the forearm. He
had also peeked at the peek-a-boo
parts Of her waist and testified that
he saw something thru the waist
that was skin-colored and funny,
therefore the arrest.
When Sarah appeared in court to
hear the charges against her, she
made reply concerning what the Of
ficer saw when he peek-a-booed, and
said it was corset cover and if they
would wait few minutes she would
go home and get it for them and
they could all look at it. me prose-
cutor answered by declaring to the
court that some women in Zion city
rode in autos thru the streets with
not enough clothes on to wad a
goose quill, and he asked that Mrs.
Johnson be fined, which the Judge
then and there did, making an ex-
ample of Sarah to the tune of SIS and
costs.
In the mind of the average man,
two questions arise, and as it con-
Germs the matter of immigration into
Zion or an exodus from there, we
bring them to the attention of our
readers for consideration. Firstly,
was the prosecutor telling the truth
when he said what he did about wom-
en- riding in cars thru the streets of
Zion? If so, the average man will
beg, buy or borrow car and start
for Zion with the intention of taking
some drives himself.
Second question: Will the or
dinance be enforced, and if so, will
the enforcement be against the
women passengers in the car or
against the driver? When both of
those questions are settled, then the
Commercial club of Zion can begin
to figure correctly regarding the
prospects of an influx of men, and
women, to try out their pavements
with the cars aforesaid.
