Crazy About Dickens.

The East wind sweeps MY heart and

crickets begin to sing.

WOMEN OF SWEDEN
 FOR PROHIBITION
57 Per Cent. Against Beverages of
 an Intoxicating Nature

| Stockholm, Oct. 5.-That 57 per | cent of Sweden's women favored pro- hibition of the manufacture and sale of beverages containing more than two and one-fourth per cent of a- cohol, while 60 per cent of the men
 were against 1t, is now apparent from
 a further count of the votes cast at the recent liquor referendum which
 resulted In a victory for the vets.
 Sweden now will continue the pres- ent rationing system, whereby the | heads of families who prove tha, they are respectable and self-support- ling can purchase about a gallon Of strong liquor per month, while any
 one can order drinks with meals un- der legal restriction at public res taurants.
 The final tabulation shows that in Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Malmoe
 as well as in other cities and subur-
 ban districts, both men and women were strongly against prohibition, while in the country districts in gen.
 eral, especially in the northern par,
 of Sweden, both men and women were as a rule in favor of prohibl- tion. In the capital, for example, 90 per cent of the men and sS per cent of the women were against the pro posed measure. This may be con- trasted with certain agricultural section where 90 per cent of the women and 73 per cent of the men wanted two and one-fourth per cent drinks.
 It is interesting to note that the majorities of men and women were on the same side of the question in Is provinces out of 25, while In the other 10 provinces the two sides Of the family seem to disagree in their tast for stimulants.
 That Swedish women do not ne slect the ballot is proved by the fact that in Stockholm they outnumbered the men at the polls by more than 5000. And the showing for the en- tire country was 'S00,000 women as against 93S.ooe men.
 The voting which took place Sun day. August 27, was conducted in the most orderly fashion. Lines be- gan to form at nine in the morning at the various polling places in Stock
 holm. Among those who voted early were Premier Granting and his wife, who voted against prohibition, as did also pr. Bratt, Sweden's drink dic- tator,' who is the originator of the present rationing system. Gay propa- |ganda was carried on throughout the day by both sides by means of parades, mounted heralds and even a1rplanes At night the square in front of the Royal Opera was packed with thousands of people who amused themselves by watching the bulletins of results until three in the morning.

TO AUCTION SEAL SKINS
Alaska Catch for United States Reach
 es 3O,OOO For The Year.

Seattle, Oct. 5.-The take of seal skins at Pribiloff Islands, Alaska, this summer is worth s360o,oo0 accord ing to advices received here by liar ry Christoffers, agent of the United States Bureau of Fisheries. The na- tives employed by the government have slain 30,000 seals this summer, as compared with 2s,500 last year.
 The skins taken last year still are in the hands of the government, hav- ing been held because of low prices The price is good now, MT. Christ offers said, and the $500 pelts of the two seasons are to be auctioned soon at St. Louis.
 The whale catch IS put at S2o as the North Pacific whaling season hears it's close. the estimated oil pro- duction being 30,o0o barrels. Three hundred whales and 11,500 barrels of oil are credited to the station of the North Pacific Sea Products company at Akutan, Alaska. Eighteen whal- ing boats have been in operation.

Divorced Wife of Millionaire in
 New York Hospital

New York, Oct. 5.--She who wal Miss Effie Pope Hill of Macon, Ga the pretty blonde girl who ten years ago-when she was l7--became the bride of Edward B. Alsop, then 77. 4 weaAhy manufacturer Of Pittsburgh and Washington, was removed last night from a dingy furnished room al 6l West 47th street and taken to Bellevue hospital suffering from al coholism and drug poisoning.
 Other tenants at the house, who said that Mrs. Alsop's actions for several days had been disquietins. to put 1t mildly, sent for Dr. J. Rosen of 13s West 74th street late in the afternoon. He told her she must go to . hospital, but she refused The physician went out and told Patrol man James Mcdonnell, who sum moned an ambulance from Flower hospital. Dr. Goldstein, aided by Dr. Rosen and some of the tenants threw . wrap around Mrs. Alsop when she refused to dress and carried her to the ambulance.
 At Bellevue 1t was said that she probably would recover. Veronal is the drug which she evidently has been taking, physicians said.
 When she. was married to MT. A. sop in 1912 she had a home in Fifth avenue, a honeymoon trip to Europe and ell the spending money she want cd. But not for long. Two months after the ceremony Mir Alsop trans- ferred 31,ooo,ooo worth of property to his two sons who were students at Harvard. Three years later he sued for divorce, alleging desertion, and in 1916 he was awarded decree in Pittsburgh. She also sued for d. worse and advised young girls not to marry old men.
 Miss Hill was 14 years old. and was running about the lawn of a hotel at Lake Toxaway, N. C.. when MT. Alsop saw her first. At one time she was a telephone operator at the Hotel Knickerbocker and later a chorus girl for a week.

WALL STREET STOCK
 EXCHANGE REPORTS

Wall street, 10:30 a. m.--Resump- tion of yesterdays buying movement took place at the opening of today's stock market. Standard OH of N. J. showed exceptional strength, gaining "A points, while Standard oil of Calif., Mex. Pet, Houston and Pierce oil pfd, moved up 1 to 2 points. Nearly all the other oils improved fractionally. Coca Cola was pushed up 2h points to a new high record, Consolidated Cigar. Ann Can and Timken Roller Bear also sold at new peak prices, The Ann Woolen Co. announcement of increased price found expression in a point rise in that stock. Rails and stees Jagged behind the rest of the list.
 Wall Street noon-Easier money rates, lack of effective resistance to pool operations and rumors that sev- eral large industrial companies were contemplating capital readjustment and either resumption or increase or dividends all influenced the continua- tion of the brisk rise in prices during the morning. The demand embraced virtually the entire list. Oils weak ened after the initial show of strength, New Jersey falling back points on profit taking. Mexican Pet. however extended it's gaing to As points and was followed into higher ground by the domestic oils.

MUST JOIN CHURCH
Decree Issued Declaring That All Residents of the Far East Will Have to Become Members.

Vladivostok, Siberia, Oct. 5.-Gen, eral Diedrchs, dictator of the Prim- oria, has issued a decree declaring that all residents of the Far East must be members of the church, hop ing oy this means to counteract the growing influence of bolshevism and communism. Another decree abolish es capital punishment. The first de- cree is not likely to be generally oo- served as larger portion of the population here have grown up in complete ignorance of the teachings of Christianity. The first sentence ot the second decree reads:
 "On August 18th l happened to witness the Liquidation of a group of communists who were captured by the agents of the secret service and killed without trial. This method of liquidation' I consider as one that has been taken from the bolshevihs." "

Calexico, Cal, Oct 5.-The fidelity of dog is credited by the police for the arrest of his former master, Rob- ert Crossett, on charge of bur- glary,
 The animal. named Jerry, had gained considerable note as a watch dog. Crossett gave Jerry to Fred St. Johns, who lived block away. Shortly afterward a burglar visited the St. Johns home and took s95 from the trousers pockets of St. Johns and his son while they were asleep.
 The police, knowing Jerry's repu- tation for vigilance. arrested Crossett, his former master, as the only man who could enter the St. Johns house without being attacked by the dog. They later announced Crossett's fin gerprints corresponded with prints found on articles in the St. Johns home.
