ure that the plebiscite had been carried
out with scarcely ripple of excitement
and no disorder.
The Germans here we're massed in
front of the Oppeln administration
building to await the result of the
balloting. and when the first returns
from the city showed vote in favor of
Germany in the proportion of twenty
to one the crowd sang "Deutchand uber
Allies" and Deutschland in Ehren."
French troops with machine guns and
rifles stood within arms reach Of the
front rank of the crowd, but there was
no occasion even to reprimand the
throng.
About midnight. when the returns
from LeobschuetZ showed the Germans
as having cast an overwhelming vote
the crowd cheered and then quietly dis
perscd. The Lcobschuetz district was
to have gone to Czccho- Slovaka in the
event Poland won the plebiscite. BY
o'clock the streets of Oppeln were de-
serted.
The ma iority Of precincts which re.

SPROUL DETERMINED
ON BROOKSLAW STAND

Governor Sproul today told dele
cation Of Methodist clergymen he would
not change his position In regard to
amending the Brooks law. He met
committee which visited at his office,
1912 Chestnut street. with view to
influencing him to throw his support to

The Rev. DR.. John >watcborn, the
Rev. DR.. G. NJ. Boswell. the Rev. DR..

law in such manner as to keep control
of beverages now coming from the
breweries.
"Our objection to the Brooks law is
psychological. The old system regu-

want anything to do with the laws that
regulated it in the old regime. We are

SPOKE FOR AUDIENCES.

Kenneth Andrews in his discus
sion of current plays in the Book
man relates this incident:
"A playwright of our acquaint-
ance told us never to forget that
people always bring their holiday
minds to the theater. They do not
come to see play; they come to see
a show. He estimated the average
mental age Of the average theater
audience at about eleven years, and
to prove it pointed out that if 'Ha-
eel Kirk or "A Trip to Chinatown
or almost any of the big American
stage successes of the past had been
written out as novels the publish
ers would have classified them UNI
der juvenile fiction. This play
wright said that a remark he once
overheard after highbrow play had
done him more good than all the
dramatic criticism he had ever read,
The man behind him said, 4 don't
see any sense in paying two-fifty
just to sit and think"

ITALIANS DoDelNe TAXES.

Ingenious methods are invented
in Italy to avoid paying the luxury
tax. The tailor approaches one mys-
teriously when his suit is finished
and asks if he wishes to have bill
when he pays for it, in which case
he will have to add $50 luxury tax.
"If, however, you like to give me
the money for the suit here and now
! will give you the suit, and we will
say no more about making out
BILL" he adds. A foreigner was
buying some lace in Roman shop
which cost $24, and, to her surprise,
the owner Of the shop said; Would
YOU like me to make you bill for
$3.50 1.-THE luxury tax begins on ar
ticles over 81 and then if you will
give my little girl present of $40
that will make things right. Why
should we either Of us pay money to
the government that we are not
obliged to pay?'

STUDYING ESKIMO RACE.

Eskimo skeletons to the number
of 80 have arrived in Halifax from
the Far North for examination and
measurement on behalf Of the Ca
madam government by DR.. John
Cameron, professor of anatomy at
Dollhouse university. The skeletons
have been brought from the land of
SHOWS by the Canadian arctic ex-
ploration party which has spent five
years in Canada's frigid zone study
ing the customs, languages and
characteristics of the Eskimo race.
They were found in the region
north Of the Mackenzie river. Doc
tor Cameron estimates that upward
of three years will be required to
complete the study of the skeletons
and make the thousands Of meas
urements necessary.

Man Whose Occupation is samplina
Wine Declares He Has Always
Hated the Work

There may be those to whom the
attitude of William Pheysey, official
sparkling wine faster for the British
government, is incomprehensible.
yet Pheysey says that he means
every word Of it when he says that
he doesn't like his job, despite the
fact that it provides him an income
Of about $4,000 a year and gives
him nothing to do except eye, taste
and smell wine-some of it the very
best in the world--all day long. In
order to keep fit for his work Phey-
sey can permit himself to smoks,
only very little, and he dares not
drink ANYTHING else for fear or dull
ing his tasting ability.
"a very considerable quantity OF
poor wine is being shipped into this
country at present. Pheysey said,
"and new tricks are being invented
every day to eyade the correct tax;
SO it is most necessary that | keep
my palate fit for tasting, my eyes
keen for color and condition and
my nose clear for vinegar smell
Perhaps that is why | hate tasting
and have hated it all my life.o

MAY BAR FOREIGN CLOTHES
Turkish Assembly Considering Strenu-
Gus Measures for Encouragement
OF Home Factories.

A bill compelling members OF
parliament, civil servants, teachers
and town councillors TO wear only
clothing manufactured in Turkey
is being holly debated by the Turk
ish national assembly at Angora, ac-
cording to the London Mails Con-
stantinQple correspondent.
One provision is that every per-
son now possessing shirt, necktie
or any other articles Of clothing
manufactured abroad shall register
each article, in which case he will
be allowed to wear it out.
During the debate one deputy,
who urged that the bill should be-
come law, so as to get rid Of fash
ions tyranny, was heckled with the
question, "Why wear ties ?"
Immediately he took off and tore
up his tie, whereupon the assembly
him and cried, SIong live
native manufacturers !"
Despite Turkeys quite rudinen-
tary factories, parliament is tending
TO pass the bill.

selling a customer poisoned one.
After wearing the hat a short time
the man felt his forehead throbbing
and shooting pains in the head.
Not being accustomed to such
maladies, he had his hat examined
and found that the band was made
of artificial leather, which contained
sufficient quantity of sulphuric
acid to account for his pains.
The court awarded the buyer
damages and told the halter that it
was his business to discover whether
