ART ENDOWMENT AT
 JOHNS HOPKINS UNIV.
$11O,000 Given by Unidentified Per son, will Provide Perpetual Fund at University.

Baltimore, Dec. 24.--The president of Johns Hopkins university announc- es an anonymous donor has turned over to the university fund sufficient to provide perpetual endowment for the department of art as applied to medicine. The amount of the endow- ment is s110,000.
 This department was established in 1911 and its head is Max Brodel Each year since 1911 the same anony- nous donor has provided funds for the upkeep of the department. It was the valuable work accomplished in these ten years, say officials, that in- duced him to make his gift perma- nent.
 MT. Brodel, whose official title is that of associate professor of art as applied to medicine, is regarded as the foremost medical Illustrator liv- ing today. His drawings, especially those for works by Doctors Franklin P. Mall, Howard A. Kelly William s. Halstead and Thomas s. Cullen have set new standard in their field
 The department is devoted to the instruction of medical students who desire to illustrate their own medical investigations and professional artists who desire to specialize in medical H. lustrating

STEAMERS RACING
 WITH SANTA CLAUS
Ocean Liners Trying to Make Port in Time for Christmas Tcs-
 tlyiticS.

New York, Dec. 24, (By Associated Press) Ocean liners and Santa Claus today were racing against time.
 Big passenger vessels stretching themselves to the limit were racing into port to land their Voyagers in time for them to reach their inland homes before Kris Kringle slid down the chimney
 Yesterday four craft--the Adriatic, Frederick VIII, American Legion and Cedric-came blowing through the fog. The liners were held somewhat in check by the murk, however, for there were limits of caution beyond which masters dared not press their ships.
 Whenever the weather cleared for a few hours, however, the vessels were tuned up far above efficiency speed, and though the coal consumption grew greater with every knot added to the speed thousands of dollars into the roaring flreboxes.
 Many passengers were business men who had only with greatest difficulty
 in some instances by airplane flights across the channel had been able to reach the last boat calculated to get them home in time to fire the yule- tide log in some western town Their hopes fell with the fog and the trip from quarantine up the harbor they could be seen standing at the rail their watches in their hands, figuring the chances of catching the train on which they were counting. Wireless shacks were kept busy with radio messages changing train accommoda- tions and reserving taXis for a dash from dock to station.
 Not a minute was lost at the piers. There steamship lines had extra men on duty to make landing a swift pro- needing and custom officials did their best to speed things up.

LIDO IMMIGRANTS
 ALLOWED TO LAND
Uncle Sam Gives Them Special Priv ilege as Christmas Present.
 Quotas Exceeded.

New York, Dec. 24.-Ellis Island S population of detained immigrants had been decreased by HOO today. Governmental clemency had been ex- tended, granting Christmas deliver ance to all those in excess of the three per cent quota allowed by law to en- ter the country this year.
 The timely Yuletide order of Com missioner of Immigration Davis per- hitting the anxious and unhappy throng to join their relatives and friends for period of 90 days, was received with great joy.
 When the news was circulated in a medley of tongues, families embraced and children clasped their hands and danced. Old men and women wept silently over the prospect of being with sons and daughters on the uni versal day of gladness.
 The immigration staff was taxed to the utmost in getting in order the pa pers and release of the fortunate ones. Clerks and inspectors continued their labors throughout the night and, this morning, all who were privileged to start on their journeys to various parts of the country were making preparations to be on their way. Many of those bound for points in New York state and New Jersey got away last night.
 Hundreds of expectant relatives waited all night in Battery park over looking the harbor for the first morn ing boats from the island bringing those who were delayed in the rush to enter the New World.

'AULIFFE MUST
 STAND TRIAL
Judge Thomas Hands Down
 Adverse Decision

Federal Judge Thomas has decided against Thomas McAulilfe, the former prohibition officer who is charged with having accepted bribes from for mer detective sergeant Andrew J Richardson of this city, and he must stand trial in the United States court Judge Thomas yesterday handed down a decision overruing a de- murrer to the complaint made by At torneys Walsh and Calnen for the de- fendant, in which it was asked that the indictment be quashed.
 On learning Of the memorandum by Judge Thomas, MT, Alcorn immediate ly announced that he will ask for a speedy trial. MT. Alcorn said that ths date had practically been agreed upon in case of an adverse decision by counsel for the accused. Lawyer Calnen has announced that owing to other business matters it will be im- possible for him to appear in court of the finding of Judge Thomas, re- marked that 1t was as good as q Christmas present.
 The Memorandum
 The text of memorandum by Judge Thomas Is as follows
 "The indictment against the defend ant charges him in two counts with a violation of Section IF of the penal code To this indictment the defend- ant files a demurrer and q motion to quash. They were argued together l.
 Tt is charged in the motion papers and at argument that the indictment is fatally defective for two. reasons first-because the date on which the alleged offense in each count was committed is not set forth; and sec ond-because the offense is not charged with sufficient particularly or sufficient certainty to appraise the defendant of the alleged criminal acts committed by him.
 An extended discussion on the law of the main points raised and con- sidered at argument seems entirely unnecessary as both points have been so frequently discussed by many judges of the federal courts, so that to merely cite the cases seems suffi- cient.
 Upon the authorities of United States V. Conrad, 59 Fed. 45S; United States V. Howard, 132 Fed. 325 Younge V. United States, PAP Fed. 78S; Ledbetter V. United States, TO U. s. 612, and Section 1925 of the Revised Statutes (section 1919 of the Com piled Statutes) the demurrer and mo- ton to quash on the ground that the exact dates are not set forth in the indictment, must be decided adverse ly to the defendants claims.
 Upon the authorities of United States v Ramon, 1b6 U. s. 464 Dur land V. United States, 161 U. s. 306; United States V. Ledbetter, ITO U. S. 612; United States V. Cruikshank, 92 U. S. 65S; United States V. Carill, 105 U. s. 611 and Howenstine V. United States, 263 Fed l, the demurrer and motion to auash must also be de- cided against the defendant.
 'The demurrer Is therefore over ruled and the motion to quash is de- nied.

WEST
 COMES INTO OWN
Work Of Obscure Pioneer Is Now
 Being Shown

New York, Dec. A. - Benjamin West, obscure pioneer in American Hrt, though he later became painter to the king of England, at last has come into his own in his native land
 For the first time in the century and more since he was laid to rest in St. Paul's cathedral, London, along side Barry, Reynolds and Van Dyke, comprehensive public exhibit of Vests work is being held in Phia- delphia near the place of his birth by the Philadelphia Art Alliance.
 The exhibit comprises twenty eight selections, paintings and drawings and, according to Albert Rosenthal secretary of the committeein charge, presents full view of Vests power and versatility.
 From painting portraits in Phila- delphia for mere subsistence, to be come the painter to the king of Eng land, standing with Reynolds and lawrence in his profession, one of the founders of the Royal Academy and it's second president succeeding Rey- holds, seems a bit of romance rather "Haii Ct o.otoliCill oL Aatl' NIT ItoS- enthal said. But such are the facts"
 West was born in the Quaker com munity of Springfield, now Swarth- more, Pa, October 10, 173S.
 He began his career as an artist at seven, with a pencil drawing of his masters baby, inspired when he saw the infant smile in it's sleep. At eighteen he set up in Philadelphia as

HARDING URGES
 SENSIBLE ACTION
Does Not Want Lesser Differences
 to Impair Treaty

Washington. Dec. 24 (By Associat- ed Press). Conference delegates hoped to conclude at todays session of the full naval committee their discussion of the British proposal for abolition of the submarine and with a decision on that issue to clear the way for consideration of the question of auxiliary tonnage allotment for France under the limitation plan.
 While the French delegates were known today to have received addi- tional instructions from Paris on that subject, they apparently have taken the position that the abolition pro- posal should be carried to a decision before they present for committee ac- ton detail figures on the submarine and other auxiliary tonnage desired by France on this viewpoint appears to have been approved by the other powers.
 In the long three cornered debate In which the submarine discussion was carried forward in the naval com mittee yesterday, however, Admiral De Bon of France already has strong ly intimated the position of his coun- try on the question of auxiliary ton- mage in declaring that 90,000 tons is the absolute minimum for all the navies who may want to have a sub marine force" He expressed the opin- ion that the conference could not reasonably limit submarine con- struction at all."
 For the British group yesterdays debate was carried on by Arthur J. Bafour, head of the delegation who reiterated and extended arguments al ready advanced by Lord Lee for abol- ishment of submarines, while Senator Schanzer of Italy, the only other par ticipant further stated the opposition of his country to such action at this time and said the Italian delegation felt the problem should be examined subsequently, in a wider conference"
 The unfinished business of the con ference shared the attention of dele gates today with the new prominence given the four power treaty discus sions by President Hardings public statement late yesterday characterz- ing the differences over interpretation of the pact as 'unimportant.' De claring he would offer no comment on the disputes which attempt to magnify the differing construction of the treaty, MT. Harding asked that the lesser questions of difference be not permitted to obscure the central pur- pose of the agreement to preserve peace.

MISS Merritt grew more interesting
and companionable.
Came Sunday when the tempera-
ture fell into the icy arms of the
arctic winds, and that part Of James
Italian ancestor within him crawled
down into the depths of his nature
and fell fast asleep. But his Puritan
principles were right in their element.
They decided that never, no never,
would James be happy with anyone as
frivolous as Pauline. It was in this
frame Of mind that James went to
call on Miss Merritt that evening.
That seventh sense, which warns all
women when man is about to pro-
pose, was on the job, and Miss Mer-

ARE you sure you would rather marry
me than any other woman in the
world? I will leave you for 20 min

the same question again."
James Manning gazed at the door
through which Miss Merritt had passed
until the sound of her footsteps ceased.
He hid his face in his hands. How
did she know? Then deep within him
something stirred and there came a
great longing for Pauline-Pauline
who, soft and fragrant and elusive in
her luxurious garments, typified all
that Miss Merritt lacked. He would
find her. He would take her In his
arms and tell her how he loved her.
James raised his head, stood up,
stretched out his arms inv0luntarily
to the vision-and some one entered
the room and walked straight into

"Would you rather marry me than

sweetness from James shoulder. Ut-

James Manning was In love with two

Il can't. James belonged to the seri-
GUS, good-looking type. He was dark

undoubtedly, was an Italian ancestor,
but very we'll plastered over with New
England's reserve. Stick your finger
down through the crust of Puritan con-

of romance in James.
First, there was Miss Merritt in
the 0flice-and right here we must own
up that there was q flaw in the dark
eyes Of our hero-he was a trif1e near
sighted and would not wear glasses.
Still it was not entirely due to that
unfortunate fact that Miss Merritt had
worked within ten feet of James for
a month before he discovered what q
really nice girl she was.
She was so negative In appearance
that one missed her fine points at first.
The highest paid writer on advice to

proved of her dress. Spectacles, yel-
low tinged, gave her eyes a greenish
tint. Her light brown hair was Sc
verely coiffured and cheeks were guilt

tied.
First accidentally, and then inten-
tionally, James formed the habit of
walking with Miss Merritt to the cor.
ner, where, after business hours, she
took her car. It followed as mat

came regularly twice a week. Sitting
