seen her climb and knew that she was

who is now making frantic efforts to
raise the money needed to meet this
deficit.
The Hylan administration made the
cut while knowing that in twenty-one
public schools the sanitary conditions
were unbearable and menace to the
health of the children. They made the
cut knowing that the same number Of
schools were in such state of disre-
pair that they were dangerous. They
knew, too, that thirteen school build
ings were so poorly lighted that they
threaten the eyesight of the children
who are compelled BY circumstances to
study there, They knew, too, that
eleven of the schools were veritable
ire traps and that twelve others were
menace to the lives of the children in
case of fire.
In addition to this, they knew that
the inadequate facilities of the school
system would compel the greatest num-
Der of part-time pupils in the history
of the Department of Education, but
still thew made the cut.

Ex-Follies Girl Loses
Her House Furnishings
Brokers Get Order Against Mrs.
Helen Spear, Whose Husband
Is Suing for Divorce

Mrs. Helen Louise Spear, who was
Miss Helen Meyer, show girl in the
"Follies of 1914" and who married
James Spear jr., member of wealthy
Philadelphia family in 1914, under a
decision by Justice Cohalan must re-
turn the furnishings Of their residence
at Wallingford, Pa She is alleged to
and to have placed them In the home
of her mother in New York. These
furnishings are valued at $4,000.
Carstairs & Co., brokers, who OBJ
tanned judgment for $26,302 against
Mr.. Spear, alleged that the bill of
sale under which Mr.. Spear conveyed
the household furnishings to his wife
was made for the purpose of prevent
ing the brokers from collecting on
their judgment. They also pointed out
that the effects remained in possession
of Mr.. Spear long time after he and
his wife separated.
Mr.. Spear is now suing his wife for
a divorce in Philadelphia, mentioning
wealthy lumberman.
Carstairs & Co., upon their failure
to collect on the judgment against
MIR. Spear. obtained an attachment here
against the furnishings of the Wal
hngford residence. Mrs. Spear, who had
taken forcible possession of them in
Pennsylvania, contested the right of
the brokers to have the things and a
Sherlff''s jury gave her possession.
Carstairs & Co. then brought the ac-
tlon in the Supreme Court to have the
conveyance from husband to wife set
aside on the ground that it was made
to defeat their judgment

the utmost restraint. Ii was true that
when Alderman Kenneally called him n
piece of cheese he tapped Alderman
Kenneally lightly, just by way of re-
monstsance, but he indulged in ~
coarseness or low language himself.
1t was utterly untrue, said Alderman
Falconer that he warned Alderman
Kenneally in a loud tone that he was
about to infiict pain in his eye.
Alderman Falconer made no such re-
mark and had no such intention.
Even when six or eight uncouth Tam
many men had seized him from behind
and Alderman Kenneally was kicking
him in the stomach, Alderman Falconer
did not lose his self control, he an
nounced.
With one hand, he said, he defended
himself against the six or eight Tam
many Aldermen from the gas house
districts, while with the other he par
ried the kicks of Alderman Kenneally
which, he said, were delivered with 8
full swinging motion of the leg and OBJ
viously were intended to inf1ict painful
if not serious, injury.
At the same time, said Alderman Fal-
coner. he was requesting his assailants
to refrain from tearing or soiling his
garments. When young, thickset
Tammany Alderman" whom Alderman
rnieoher recognized, delivered sSorTt
ming blow which split his lip, Alderman
Falconer INDUCED in no sarcasm of {
a low order but merely made the sug
gestion that each take his turn and tha

tirely
SO far from having the effect sought
said Alderman Falconer, his well-choser
remarks inspired some one whom h,
was unable to see. but who he suspects

of the gas house district, to deliver (
tremendous blow just above his lef

If Alderman Kenneally is not chast
ened, said Alderman Falconer, and per

Ex-Champion and Idol Out of Aldermanic Ring

Alderman Bruce M. Falconer, who
was given the floor In emphatic fashion
Tuesday by unanimous action Of the

day through slightly swollen lips that
he hoped the severity of the rebuke he

ing had $40 worth of new lining put
in his coat and $3.50 worth Of battle
stains removed from his suit IL it
didr't, said he severely-why, the whole
thing would have to be done over again.
Alderman Falconer served notice
upon the public and upon Alderman
Kenneally--who was out Of the city
that he would stand for no more Of
Alderman Kenneally's low remarks and
coarse ways. Alderman Kenneally, said
Alderman Faiconer, would have to de-
sist from all his vulgarities and, par
ticularly, he must refrain from low
personal rerrs-ks, from sticking his
jaw into Alderman Ealconer's face In
grossly insulting and provocative way
and from calling Alderman Falconer u

Bedtime Stories
Mr.. Wren's Doubts Return
By Thornton w. Burgess
Cast doubt out of your mind,
And up 1T pops again, youW find,
Mr.. Wren.

Jenny and Mr.. Wren finished their
nest in the sleeve of the old coat of
Farmer Browns Boy. Perhaps. to be
wholly truthful, | should say that
Jenny finished that nest Mr.. Wren
thought he had done much of the
work, but Jenny had really done most
of 1t. Mr.. Wren had had TO stop too
often to sing to get great deal
done. Now that that nest was fin-
ished, properly lined with feathers
(Jenny had been very fussy about
that lining), he could sing to his
hearts content. And he did. All day
long, from early morning right
through the hot noon, until shadow
time, Mr.. Wren sang, excepting when
he was hunting for food. Even then
ne would stop every few minutes to
sing.
He was quite satisfied with that
new home now. He was quite willing
2 to admit that Jenny had been right
/ and that that old coat was a splen-aid
place Tor home, even if it was a
queer place. And after Jenny an
nounced that there were seven eggs,

feared and hated it was Black Pussy,
Right away Dir. Wren thought th A.

Of course. that brought Jenny Wren
out TO see what all the fuss was
about. OF course. it made Black
Pussy look up. And Black Pussy
looked up just as Jenny Wren popped
out.
Now, Black Pussy hadn't even sus-
pected that there was a nest in that
old coat. 1t was the last place in the
world she would have thought of look
ing for one. But now she knew. Per-
