THE YELLOW WAY.


baltimore Evening Sum
There was certain man who had
an emmy and yellow streak. He con-
ccaled the yellow streak and lodged
the enemy, and lived many years in
peace. hut one day rs he walked
aDraod he came to the edge of Il
cliff, and as he stood there gazing
into the depths ut his feet, the rus
tic OF leaves warned him that mt last
his enemy had him trapped. Terror
mastered him. And to avoid moral
combat with his enemy, he took coun-
sci of his craven heart and leaped
over the cliff to his death. And fool
ISL persons, when they learned in
what manner he had come to his end.
remarked to one another: "lle wasn't
n coward, after all; only brave man
could have made that leap"
The popular view of suicide is far
too romantic. Suicide is but the func-
tioning of Il yellow streak. Winners
do not take their own lives. Only the
losers court death.
When the pctted and pampcrcd
darling of parents who have but lit
Tie wisdom plays ball with other
small boys in the alley, he must bat
first and often he will thrust his fists
into his eyes and 20 whimpcring
home, He knows much of sclfishness
and nothing of good craftsmanship
The test of good craftsmanship is
me ability to grin while losing. To
play the game according to the rules
10 win without becoming arrogant
and lose without whining is the part
o! a proper man.
When loss comes TO a man whose
cosmos bears no stain of yellow. no
accepts the situation with philosoph
ic calm and begins again ut the bot
tom to work his way back to the ton.
Those who. in the silly phrase of
novclists, yearn to "end it all" are
a craven breed. TO make an end be-
lore the game is played out is no
more honorable than to steal from
the cash drawer because the cards
ran wrong last night.
The troubles that ailiict as are I'm,

can feel whole man until he had

STATE WINS FIRST
 ROUND SMALL TRIAL

WAUKEGAN, H., May 16. - The state won the first round in the trial of Governor Small, charged with the embezzlement of hundreds of thous- ands of dollars of state funds. The opening skirmish of the legal battle occurred when the attorneys for the defense objected to the admission Of the private records kept during his term of office by former State Treas urer Fred E. Sterling, who is charged similarly with the governor as being implicated in the misappropriation of of the state funds. After an extend ed legal argument, which was too ab- struse for most of the spectators to understand, Judge Claire s. Edwards, ruled that the records were admissible.

FLAPPER TURNS BURGLAR AND
 IS ARRESTED

AURORA, H., May 16.-A flap per- burglar is the latest. The young miss of IF or IS who has bobbed her hair, rolled down her stockings, shortened her skirts, and let free the tops of her galoshes, in her search for a soulmate, which latter is
 usually limited to another woman's
 husband, has found that all these
 novelties have staled upon her. The flappers are entering upon new fields, and going at it with the pecul-
 jar grace and abandon inherent in the breed.
 The pioneer "flapper" burglar started her adventurous career from this city last night. She hired taxi
 cab here, and went to West Batavia Illinois, eight miles away. She en- tered house and footed it of it's valuables while the taxi waited. Af- ter packing her booty into the ma-
 chine she returned to this city and caught a train for the west. Advices just received state that a young woman who has given the name of Myrtle Brunn, was taken from the train, and charged with the crime.

SEATTLE WANTS FORD
 TO AID DEVELOPMENT
 O-ELECTRIC PLANT

SEATTLE, May 16.-Henry Ford's offer to take over the governments uncompleted power plant in Muscle Shoals, near Florence, Alabama, which was rejected by Congress, led to the introduction of a resolution into the city council by Councilman c. B. FitH- gerald to give him a chance to assist this city in a hydro-electric project. The resolution if adopted will call upon the city engineers to at once open negotiations with Ford for the purpose of securing his aid in the 1e- velopment of the ggeat hydro-electric plant project for the Skagit River. Action on the resolution may be ex- pected at the next meeting of the clty council.

 WITH DAYLIGHT
 SAVING PLAN
EIGHT PAGES

WASHINGTON, May 16.-This city yesterday began the experiment of trying the daylight saving plan. The usual expedient of advancing the hands of the clock one hour was not resorted to. The official time was left unchanged, but at the request of Pres ident Harding, issued with the approv- al of the cabinet, large proportion of the activities of the executive branch of the government started to work an hour earlier than usual which meant that the thousands of clerks reported for duty at 8 a. m. instead of a. n. The same procedure was adopted by most of the commercial establish ments of the city which fell in line al, most unanimously. As far as Con- gross was concerned, the members would have nothing to do with the change, and insisted that things go along as before. The Supreme Court, the most conservative, institution in the country, also refused to be at tainted by the radicalism of daylight saving, and adhered to the official time.

TELLS BRYAN TO GET
POSTED ON BIOLOGY
Prof. Conklin Calls Mud and

Spccial Dispatch to TIE New YORK HERALD.
PRINCETON. April 4.-"Mere buffoon-
cry" stated Prof. Edwin Grant Conklin.
professor of biology at Princeton Uni
yersity, to-day, when asked his opinion
concerning William ]. Bryan's reference
to mud and monkeys in his lecture on
"Darwinism" at the New York Hippo
drome on Sun. Jy. Prof. Conklin went
on TO say: MI. Bryan may 8 well dis
cuss the cause and cure of infantile
paralysis. He lacks special training on
the subject. AS Huxley once said. Get
a little first hand knowledge of biology
that is all that is necessary
Prof. Conklin further stated: There
is a widely prevalent view. especially In
politics. that one mans opinion is as
good as another's on any subject what
ever. Mr.. Bryan has the same idea. He
thinks that he can carry 1t into science
irrespective of whether he has taken
pains to study It or not"

MURPHY'S PAL GETS
HEARST MANS PLUM
Hylan Chooses p. +. DOnOhue,
Treasurer Of Tammany Hall,
for Water Supply Job.

Philip F. Donohue. treasurer OF Tam
many Hall and for forty years the boon
companion of Charles Fl Murphy, the
boss" received yesterday one OF the
choicest political plums in the gift OF
Mayor Hylan. He was personally sworn
in as a Commissioner OF the Board Of
Water Supply. place paying $4,000
year and involving a minimum OF work
AS Mr. Dononue succeeds Laurence J.
o'Reilly. who for many years before his
death was political manager for Will
liam Randolph Hearst and was known
as the EDITORS personal representative
in the municipal administration. the ap-
pointment set wagging the tongues OF
political gossips. Many were inclined
to think 1t indicated clean break be-
tween the Mayor and Hearst. They rea-
soned that the Mayor had been captured
by Tammany Hall and Mr.. Murphy
wished to signalize the capdtulation by
the appointment OF his best friend.
The most trustworthy information last
night was that Mr.. Hearst had no cam
didate for the job, no one be wished to
be known as his man" in the admins
tration, and he was willing to have 1t
understood he was not opposed to the
favor shown to the Tammany chief. He
may or may not contemplate seeking a
nomination for the United States Senate
or for Governor this fall. bCt 1t Will do
no harm to have the good will OF Mr.
Murphy. 1t Is generally believed he
I, od he
to succeed Mr.. O'Reilly il he had in
sisted upon it. He did nothing of the
sort 1t is said.
When Mr.. Hearst was asked to COM
ment on the matter he said to THE NEW
YORK HERALD:
Il have no knowledge Of the appoint
ment and no interest in it. Mr.. O'Reilly
was appointed at Mayor Hylan's INSTANCE
and not at mine"
One thing is clear. Mayor Hylan Is
on tho best of terms with Tammany.
He desires to please the organization
when 1t does not displease Mr.. Hearst
and there is no foundation for the much
talked of break between Mr.. Murphy and
the Mayor
1t is said the Tammany chief per-
sonally requested the position for his
old time crony~ of the Gas House dis
trict. For many years Phil" as he Is
known to his intimates. has urospered
financially through his political connec-
tions. Dock leases and legal advertis-
ing thrown his way by the courts, have
been source of great revenue, accord
ing to the generally accepted belief.
Through all the years since Phil and
Charles were young men and fought
their battles together in the strenuous
surround ings of the Gas House Sec
ton now known as the Twelfth As
sembly district. where both live yet, Mr.
Donohue has held only one other public
Office. In 1s93 he was named as super
intendent of the post office by Postmas-
ter Dayton. He held over until 1899
under Postmaster Van Cott. Years be-
fore that he had been in the plumbers
supply business.
