A feature entirely out Of the ordi-
nary, carried by the big Rubin and
Cherry Shows, which open a weeks
engagement here Monday, Oct. so,
is that of Elsie Stirk, a renowned
double bodied woman.
Contrary to expectations Miss
Strk is not human curiosity of the
Objectionable type, but a high class,
cultured young woman, endowed by
nature with two distinct bodies, male
and female.
Photos of her profile reveal two
faces, one distinctly masculine and
the other female, and each profile
has voice corresponding with its
gender.
Miss Stirk has appeared before
the leading scientific bodies, and
medical colleges Of the United States,
and has been pronounced by experts
to be one of the most battling speci-
mems Of our Creators handiwork in
existence.
She holds receptions hourly, ex-
plains in detail her life, and proves
conclusively to the satisfaction Of the
onlooker her claim 20 beng a double

Pleaded For
 Three Days Job For Service Men

An effort on the part of Supt- of Relief Richard Caldwell of the Chari- ties Dept. to secure a three-day a week working schedule for unmarried ex-service men failed, it became known today at the Welfare Building. At present the ex-service men are of fered two days a week employment if they are single and are rewarded but $4.50 for their two days work and MT. Caldwell, who is an ex-service man himself. went before the Board of Charities and the officials of the Charities department and pleaded for three days work for the men. He told the Board that the men were un- able to feed and clothe themselves on the small wage that the department paid them.
 At first he thought that the plan was going to succeed but he was later told that the department would refuse to consider the idea. Tt is insulting to the men who served overseas and fought and suffered for their country to offer them two days work with the pay of $4.5o. not even enough to keep body and soul together" said MT Caldwell.

Operators And Miners Agree On Sessions
Miners Predict Their Case Will Be Com pleted by Tomorrow Night.

New York, April 6-Week end sessions of the anthracite miners and operators sub-com- mittee on wage contract nego- tiations were agreed upon by both parties today as an aid to speedy settlement of the hard coal strike.
 Operators Ready, Too.
 John l.. Lewis, President of the United Mine Workers, was at the head of the union delegation on the com mittee, and the miners predicted they would complete their case by tomor- retained a formidable staff of econo- mic research experts, announced they would be ready by that time to SUD- port their demands for decrease in miners wages.
 Reports that the state of Pennsyl- vanfa had called upon the union to furnish fire fighters for another mine conflagration which broke out yes= terday. were verified yesterday by William J. Brennan. President of dis trict number one at Scranton.
 Fourth Mine Fire. =.
 The fire, which is the fourth for which help has been sought since the strike began April 1, is at the Lee Galleries at Wilkesbarre according to Mir. Brennan The only way 1t can be subdued, he said, will be by sinking a new shaft directly into the heart of the blaze. Several hundred men probably will be required for this job, he said.
 Three other fires also are being Wilkesbarre and two in the Scranton district.

Thorne Says
 MoreChanges Are Coming

There will be further changes in the personnel of the Charities De- partment" said Supt. Angus P. Thorne today, indicating that the de- partment is due for another shake-up and that many clerks and assistants felt sure of the positions >>have cause to worry MT. Thorne further said that the force of tim mekeepeers em- ployed-iby the department would be reduced from nine to five and that the entire number might be let go Mayor Atwater. At present the nine timekeepers take charge of the 600 men working. he said, and one-ha1f of them are actually needed.
 Supt. Caldwell today sent a list of 20 names of clerks and timekeepers MT. Thorne, who said that he would make many changes in the number this afternoon. indicating that many would be dropped.
 Richard Supple, 8 strong Demo- crat of the Sixth district, will be re- was said today. MT. Supple was slated for a health inspectors job. but never obtained it. It is expected that the rest of the clerks in this de- partment will be replaced.
 MT. Caldwell was notified that his Supt. Thorne has decided to keep him until April 15.
 Clerks under MT. Caldwell can not see why others should be after their little s12-a-week jobs because they themselves would not be in the job if there was any other work to be ob- tained. Anyway somebody is going to get the s12-a-week job, according to MT Thorne, because SIP is SIP nowadays.

 Many Old Rumors.
 The retirement of the muni-mil- lionaire Pittsburgher from the Hard ing cabinet has been rumored dozen times ill recent months, but the ru- nor have always proved groundless. Today, however. these reports revived many of his friends and opponents alike that MeHon's retirement is inn minent.
 Brought to the attention of the White House and the Treasury De- partment, the reports met with the usual denials today.
 It was denied, however, that the most serious family row so far de ve1oped in President Hardings off, ctal family is in progress over the shake-ups already made and con templated in the Treasury Depart ment and it's various bureaus

 Warden Plummer. in an ad- dress before the Wilmington Lea que of Women Voters, told of having discovered an "under- ground mail system in the work house.
 Notes were hidden in food, in articles of clothing. or carried by 'trusties,' he. said. Some times men sent notes outside to have them hidden in cakes, pies and candy sent later to the girls
