Hatred.

This ID no place for preachments
but we just heard girl say of an.
other: II hate her SO 1t makes me
sicki"
That's about all hatred will do for
you, dearie; and it won't even touch
the object of your hatred. There's
nothing that makes a girl uglier than
hatred. If for no other reason, you
might consider your good looks, and,
IL you can't like person, at least
save yourself by just forgetting tina,
she exists.
I'm writing this so can clip 1t out
and mail 1t to you, Little Lady; and
maybe some other girls who hate peo-
pie until II makes them sick win think
1t over, as you will when the ugly
lines Of hatred turn all your friends

GUARD EXPOSED HICKEY PLOT
Loyaiists Planned to End Revolution.
AIRY War by Murder or Capture
Of Leaders.

What Is known as the "Hickey
plot was a conspiracy IN 1776 of
British officials and loyalists of New
York to end the Revolutionary war by
the murder or capture of its leaders
and the seizure or destruction of its
supplies The heads and probable de
visers of the plot were Governor
Tryon, who had fed from the city, but
remained on a man-ef-war in the har-
Dor and sent supplies of money for
bribery, etc, and Mayor Mathews.
The scheme was to kill or seize the
patriot generals and at all events to
deliver Washington alive to Sir VIII
liam Howe, blow up the magazine and
secure the passes to the city. Two of
Washington's guards were bought, but
third pretended to accede and re-
vealed the plot. Mathews and a dozen
others were arrested and sent to Con
necticut, Mathews carrying the may
orally flag with him. Thomas Hickey,
one of the treacherous guards, was
hanged in New York, the first military
execution In the American army,

.OBERAMMERGAU
 PEACE. IS GONE

OBERAMMERGAU, Bavaria, Aug. 23.-Oberammergau is not the peace full village that it was before Anton Lang and his wood carving compan- ions went to America early this year. Local opponents of the trip to the United States have gained reinforce ments since the return of the Lang party some weeks ago and the town has divided into bitter Lang and an- ti-Lang groups.
 The anti-Lang forces assert that the American visit of the Oberam- mergau players was an attempt to commercialize the Passion Play, that the trip was financial failure and they have threatened to sabotage the next production of the perfor- nance scheduled for 1882.
 Anton Lang himself has held aloof from his critics thus far and refuses to answer them, contending that the charges are unfounded, and ayers that the Passion Play will not suffer from criticism or jealousies of individuals.

extending back to that remote and unknown period when vital organi- zation first assumed form. The in- dividual may die, but the germ cells live on as the vehicles by which hereditary traits are transmitted from generation to generation.
 And the prenatal influence the ory," said the professor, lis the bunk
 'The mother" he went on, might as we'll construct a cradle to influ- ence prospective son to become carpenter as to study music to bring forth musical prodigy. As long as the embryonic child is we'll nur- tured, that is all the mother has to do with it."
 Whereas zygote is the original cell from which the egg came, subse- quently followed by the hen, accord ing to Prof. Thoraldsen, the chrom- osomes are the predetermining quail ties in the human makeup, and thru mating of proper chromosomes sci entists some day may be able to pre- dict the results of mating humans.
 Which will leave for future gen. erations to answer only those two other all-imports t age-o1d questions. How old is Ann and Why does chicken cross the road?

HARD WORK RAISING
 SUNK GERMAN FLEET

LONDON, Aug. 23.-Tremendous difficulties are being experienced by the salvagers now engaged in rais- ing the sunken German fleet of Scra- pa Flow, Scotland.
 Those in a position to judge esti- mate that it will be approximately seven years before the whole of the fleet is raised and then only if the present difficulties are overcome.
 Notwithstanding the most up-to- date and powerful apparatus em- ployed, the divers are finding it a hard task to clear the sunken yes sells of their several years occumu- lation of marine growth, some of which is stated is to be four to six inches in thickness and of immense strength.
 The ships have been found lying in different positions, the Sydlitz, the second biggest ship sunk, be- ing in an extremely difficult posi- tion. Most of the vessels have set tied in several feet of ooze and sand, and it's clearing will take the divers some months.

Cool Summer Makes 1t
 Tough on Animals, Too

RIDGEFIELD ,Conn., Aug. 23.- Cool weather is making the summer a strange proposition for wild crea- lures as well as for human beings A five-foot black snake entered a house at Cannondale and found its way between the mattresses of a efather bed Residents were reused in the middle of the night by wild shrieks, when the snake finally crawl ed into the part of the bed where a seven-year-old girl lay. The snake was dispatched as it tried to crawl downstairs, and it's carcass was brot here to vouch for the tale.
 Where year ago drought was forcing snakes into the open and making life interesting for having farmers, the cool weather is send ing them into the roadsides for a chance at sun bathing and highways are spotted with snake victims of motor cars. Summer residents have been alternating between here and New York, as the weather warmed up and cooled off, until no one knows just how lively the village will be from one week to another.

Mooted Hen-Egg Question Settled;
 Egg Came First, Auers Professor

CHICAGO, Ill.,, Aug. 23.-The age old question, (Which came first, the chicken or the egg" is answered al last.
 In an admittedly off-hand man. ner, Professor Conrad E. Thoraldsen of the department of zoology of Northwestern University, featuring on "Heredity" to summer school stu dents at Harrison Tech High School, gave the answer:
 "The hen comes from the egg, and not the egg from the hen"
 There it is. The egg came first.
 "I realize" Professor Thoraldsen continued, "that Pm settling in a rather off-handed manner one of the momentous questions of all time, But my research work compels me to re- iterate that the hen comes from the egg, and not the other way around.
 ''The hen carries new germ cells, which produce other eggs and, pre- sumably, new hens; but all hark back to the original germ cell, which we call the zygote. It's the same in human beings. The person dies, but the germ cell lives on in a cir cult as complete as eternity"
 This continuous circuit of germ cells, Dr. Thoraldsen asserted, proves that ''life never dies"-that life is a continuous stream of cell divisions

USED CLOTHES OF MOVIE
 STARS MUCH IN DEMAND

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 23.-"You may tear, you may spot the old clothes, if you will-
 But the glamour of stardom will cling to them still"
 Not confined to Hollywood itself, but scattered throughout this city, are shops where the cast-off gar ments of the stars of the movies may be purchased.
 Evening gowns, frocks, slippers, kimonos, bathing suits, riding clothes, garden hats, raincoats, des- ert "get-ups"-all await the purchas- CT who seeks a Poiret-labeled affair for the price of Main street gingham.
 Old clothes men daily make the rounds of the studios and homes of the stars seeking cast-off clothes.
 It is a rule that the women of the movies have plenty of beautiful clothes for each picture ,and a gown once worn is seldom used again. Hence the little second hand clothes shops are filled with the cast off garments of the great and minor performers of Hollywood.

HACK WILSON, OF GIANTS
 REAL FIND FOR McGRAW

NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-Every once in while youngster comes into the big league and makes good. This year Hack Wilson, outfelder of the Giants, short and pudgy, but with a pair of shoulders like a wrestler, is the "star' of the National league. Wilson is a fixture. He is at the heels of Rogers Hornsby for batting honors, can field his position like a veteran and is the "spark plug" of the older circuit. Wilson's spec ialties are three base hits-very timely hits. McGraw got him from the Virginia league and he did not cost a fortune, like some of the "flivvers" who also tried to gradu- ate from the minors.

Blood Poisoning Cure
 Dyes Face of Patient

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 23.-If you see a person walking down the street with a black, tan, purple or some other unusual facial color, he isn't trying to break into the movies, according to Dr. c. c. Berwick.
 It's plain dye now beginning to be used generally by physicians as cure for blood poisoning, for which, until a few months ago, the medical profession had no definite cure.
 Coal tar dyes form the basis of the treatment, which came to the Pacific coast following successful ex- periments at Johns Hopkins univer- sity, Baltimore, Md.
 The dyes are injected into the blood, killing the germs and color ing the patients features at the same time.

Bob BLoU 10 Hair
 Ornamental Business

PARIS, Aug. 23.-"Bobbed locks may mean comfort and style for a great many women, but do any ot them dream of the misery they have brought upon thousands of poor workers?" writes Albert Acremant in "L'Excelsior."
 In Germany, according to his re- port, there were hundreds of fac tories making false ivory combs and pins for milady's locks before she cut them off There were straight combs and curved ones. There swere barrettes and pins and innumerable fancy creations for the chignon. With the coming of bobbed hair all of them have been rendered useless German factories have been forced to close their doors, which means that thousands of girls and women have been thrown out fwork.
 More unfortunate still are the Chinese of Chefoo, a village of 1OO,- 900 inhabitants, where nearly all the hair nets in the world are made. Several years ago Chefoo exported annually five million dollars worth of hair nets to the United States and three million to Europe. During the last six months, since the bob has been on the boom, the exportations have been almost nothing. The little Chinese girls who earned their living tying the fine hairs together are now wondering where their bread and butter will be coming from. A good wind may sometimes blow i'll to many people.
