CHICKEN THIEF SENT
TO PRISON HE ROBBED

For stealing chickens from the East
View Penitentiary. Ernest Bailey. As, of
Elmsford, betrayed by his odd footprints
and arrested. was sentenced yesterday
to six months there.
Prison attendants had discovered that
the hen roost Of the institution had been
visited in the night, apparently by an
outsider Footprints found in the snow
indicated that the thief's shoes were not
mates. They were traced and found to
be the prints of Bailey's odd shoes.
Bailey said he wished to enjoy a
chicken dinner and had little difficulty
in approaching the chicken coop. War
den Mcclellan has not assigned Bailey
to a job vet, but is sure he will not be
allowed to care for the prisons poultry.

Hamilton I'm Charge.

BY n popularity OF the rules, James
A. Hamilton, Commissioner OF Correc-
ton, by virtue of his office OF chairman
of the general committee. is acting
chairman Of the executive committee
through the death of Mr.. Murphy. He Is
the man who will have to call the meet
ing for the selection of successor. but
he Is not a member. Some believe his
closeness to Murphy in the organization
would fit him to carry out the Murphy
policies. and there Is a suggestion he
would not be aversc to accepting the re-
sponsibility. He for years has been the
wheelhorse OF the Seventh District
Club. which was Murphy's district. He
was Murphy's trusted lieutenant when II
came to campaigns He served two terms
as State Senator.
But there are others who hold that
William j.. Flynn, Commissioner OF
Public Works under Borough President
Bruckner. IS a more forceful personality
if It comes TO going outside tho COM
mittee for a new leader. District At
torney Edward ]. Glennon Is also spoken
OF. although II Is not believed he would
be willing to give up public Office to
accept the leadership.
In addition to these men those outside
the executive committee who were close
10 Murphy are Nllllhnl ". bergen, tolnc-
times known as the millionaire cop"
who has substantial standing as n busi-
ness man In The Bronx; Surrogate
George Nj. 8. Schulz, City Court Justice
Joseph M. Callahan and Supreme Court
Justice Harry M. Ticrney.
II is probable the Democratic office
holders of Tho Bronx will exercise a
powerful Influence in the selection OF
new leader. Some Democrats have
been asserting tho County Committee
really will have the selection OF the new
leader. This Is because the bylaws pro-
vide the executive committee shall 're-
port" their choice of n chairman TO the
general committee. and II has been GUS
tomary for the latter TO pass a formal
resolution of approval. A member or
the executive committee said yesterday
this was merely perfunctory and II
would make no difference whether the
general committee approved or not.
For a county organization which had
started off In 1913 badly divided Arthur
Murphy had got IL into most satisfac-
tory state OF harmony before his death

PICKED BY TYPE
0bseryant Man Explains Aver
age StenographIC Force.
Generally Selected as the Result Of
the Boss Early Experlence--Wlfe
Sometimes an Influence.

"H0w do you account for the fact
that In some Offices all the stenog.
raphers are fat, In other offices all the
sten0graphcrs are thin, and in still
other Offices are medium sizedi' de-
manded the loquacious commuter, the
New York Sun states.
"They AREN'T replied the sleepy
commuter Grossly. "In offices know
there are thick, thin and medium ste
nographers, all together"
mo, you're wrong old man." COM
mented the l0quacious commuter cheer
fully. i've given this matter my Sc
rlous attention for some time. The
Offices where stenographers are of
mixed sizes are the exception. In
nine offices out of ten you'll find the
sten0graphers all run true to form
whether the form Is light, heavy or me
dlum.
ITS the same way with colorlng In
some Of the Offices all stenographers
are dark and in other offices all, or al
most all, of the stenographers have
medium colorlng"
"Well what's the answer?" sighed
the sleepy commuter resigning himself
to instructions.
my opinion is," explained the To-
quncious commuter happily, that it's
all due to the proprletors early expe-
rience.
when he began business and was
only able to employ one stenographer,
he happened to draw plump one She
proved amlable, reliable, and just what
he wanted and without realizing 1t,
he stored away In the back of his
mind the experience that fat stenog
raphers are deslrabls. When engag-
ing stenographers ever since he has
always leaned to this type. He may
have had many good stenographers
who were plump, but in big office the
work goes on In such way that this
would scarcely come to his attention
Quite unconsciously he continues TO
cling to the type he first favored
But suppose the plump stenog-
rapAer whom he first employed proved
a total loss?' questioned the sleepy
commuter.
That's just where It isw said the
loQuaclous commuter, happily. "ln
the event you speak Of he would nat
urally store away in his inner CON
seriousness a distrust of plump stenog-
raphers and in his selection would go
to the other extreme-he would want
the thinnest stenographer obtaInable.'
The sleepy commuter smiled irrltat-
lngly.
That's queer theory" he remarked,
but as q matter of fact, 1t isn't the
boss who selects the stenographers, It's
the Office manager"
The loquacious commuter looked de-
cldedly crestfallen and the sleepy com
muter would have scored an unmlxed
triumph II committing friend had not
joined them as they disembarked.
"Say, have YOU been in Bin Jones
Office recently?" asked the committing
friend. Hes got the greatest line of
lady help that ever 1 saw-eyery one
of 'em as round as barrel. You
see, Bills wife is a heavyweight, and
she won't stand for a girl in the office
who tips the scale at less than $780,

Up AN INTEREST
IN HEAD LETTUCE

George Mason Is in communication
with representatives of the Buena
Vista and Salida head lettuce raisers
association, who want to see Gunnison
county folks get interested in the big
profits to be made from the new in
dutry. which is sweeping the noun
tain counties by storm.
Mr.. Mason states that representa-
tiyes from Salida are expected shortly
to contract for as much acreage as
possible, and that Mrs. Mason plans TO
grow considerable on her Lake Fork
ranch. Any portion of the Gunnison
county mountain land is adaptable for
head lettuce both by soil and climate,
but it had been supposed ii would be
necessary to have an association,
pledging considerable acreage so that
shipments could be made in carload
lots. However, by combining ship
ments at Salida, even small field crate
shipments can be taken care of.
1t is believed that the head lettuce in
dustry has hardly started, so huge is
the demand for the new table delicacy
from the big hotels and restaurants Of
eastern cities, and even tables of the
farmers in hot climates. where the
