Her carly womarhood was spent in humanitarian work, chief ly in New York where on the East Side of the city she founded The Do Good Mission" and established non-sectarian Sunday schools and classes for both parents and child ren.
 In 1893 William Q. Judge, leader lei the Theosophical movement and successor to Mime. Blavatsky, hear ing of Mime. Tingley's work, inter- ested her in theosophy and after his death on March 21, 1896, it was found that he had appointed her as his successor as leader of the movement. She thereupon went around the world on a tour of or ganization.
 Returning u une United States she laid the cornerstone of the School of Antiquity at Point Loma, Feb. 23. 1897. In the same year she established the International Brotherhood eague, founded a summer home for children at Spring Valley, N. J., and home for orphan children at Buffalo, thf. children from the latter being later taken to Point Loma. She also opened three schools in Cuba.
 Universal Brotherhood
 On Jan. 13, 1898, at her home in New York, she established the University Brotherhood and at the convention of the Theosophieal So- oiety month later in Chicago the constitution of the Universal Broth erhood was adopted and the Theo- sophical Society was merged into it. Mrs. Tingley was elected as President for life, with power to ap- point her successor. At the close of the Spanish American War she opened a hospital for wounded soldiers at Montauk Point, L. I.

That $4,000 Indemnity.
There is another story worth repeat-
ing, ] heard It from several British
officers, who vouched for its truth. A
British subject had been killed by Chi
nese bandits In small town. A gum
boat was ordered up the river to see
that the officials Of the town apologized
for the rnisdeed and that the family OF
the man was compensated financially.
The mayor of the town came down to
the wharf, the British captain informed
him that an immediate and adequate
apology was wanted, and said the town
would have to raise $4,000 as compen-
sation. The mayor offered the neces-
sary apology, but said the town didn't
have $4,000, or even 10000 cents. The
captain, who had his instructions, said
that unless the money was forthcoming
In 40 hours he would be required to
chop of the heads of the mayor and
the towns elders. The next day the
governor of the province came down and
said that there wasn't 1000 in the
whole province, and that, at any rate 1t
was much cheaper to elect new mayor
and elders.
But an hour before the time set for
the execution the mayor and the elders
came hurrying down to the gunboat
and turned in $4,000 in gold.
1.-TWO days ago you told me the town
didn't have 10000 cents, yesterday the
governor told me that there wasn't
$40 900 in the whole province, and now
YOU deliver $4,000 gold to save your
neck" the gunboat captain said
Where did you get the money!"
The mayor, who could speak q little
English, answered:
ship come up river this morning
with missionary money. This good mis-
sion to save mayors head"

it may have been, it Is no doubt an iso-

But the Chinese sometimes get that
way. They are q smart people. Their
crooks are smart In fact, one incident
that came to my attention there caused
me to believe that the Chinese crooks
are even smarter than Philadelphia

city as director of public safety know
Philadelphia crooks are mighty smart.
One Way to Get Clock.
In the United states Court there
and we have our own courts for our
own r,eople--two Chinese came IN DUR
ing a session. They brought in ladder
and leaned 1t against the wall. on which
was hung a handsome big clock.
The Judge stopped the proceedings
and had the interpreter tell the Chinese
to make less noise. to be very careful
not to stop the clock, and to take II Out
the door without knocking 1t against
wall. They replied through the inter.
prefer that they would do 1t quietly anc
| not injure the clock.
So they took 1t down without damag-

nf the men. At these gatherings we eX-
planned carefully to them why we were
in China, what the situation was, and
what our conduct and. attitude were
to be.
The Marines Are Warned.
"You men must realize" we would tell
them. that all YOU have to do to start
trouble Is to fire one shot. We don't
want that. We have only one mission In
China. That is to protect American
lives. There is no war. The Marines,
therefore, must not abuse the Chinese.
THE Chinese are smaller than we
are. They are different race, and
Americans are always kind to those
smaller and weaker. II 1t ever becomes
necessary to fight to protect our citi-
zens, I personally will give the order.
Your great battle will be to keep up
YOUR spirit and maintain your health
and morale. We are here for only one
purpose-to protect the lives of our
people"
In the huge hall we had rented we
arranged all sorts of military and ath-
letic competitions, fostering a spirit OF
friendly rivalry among the various or
carnations of the command.
One afternoon went into the hall
with a group of Americans living In
China. I had been telling these people
about what great warriors our Marines
are. And there at a ping-pong table
were two big 6-foot Marines with theil
bayonets and guns in left hands and
| ping-pong bats in the right hands. A
gun in one hand and ping-ponl
racquet in the other!
Some one suggested that this would
please our people at home, that !
showed preparedness and pacifism al
in one to the nth degree. But whether
it was base ball, billiards or ping-pong
it gave the men something decent to d.
and helped keep them out of trouble.
OF course, they were drilled regu
larly. The other allied powers joined
in perimeter defense of the foreign
settlements, and as we were avoiding al
entangling alliances we did not joil

Pigs on Pasture
Need Less Grain

An acre Of alfalfa will provide
green feed for from Is to 20 pigs.
For growing pigs at lowest cost
and for greatest profit, good pas
ture during the grazing season is
required, says the Blue Valley
Creamery Institute. Pigs fed on
pasture need less grain and other
concentrated feeds to make 100
pounds gain than those kept in a
dry lot. At the Missouri Agricultur-
al Experiment Station, it was
found that the grain consumed by
pigs on pasture was 38 per cent less
than the amount of concentrates
eaten by pigs fed in dry lot. AS
grains and other concentrates are
the most expensive parts of a pig
ration, the saving made by the pas
ture-fed pigs is considerable.
Pigs on pasture also make more
rapid gains than those fed off
grass. Feeding trials show that
pigs on pasture make about 35 per
cent bigger gains than those not on
pasture. Alfalfa pasture, as well as
all other legume pastures, and
those made from rape, are rich in
protein, the growth-producing and
muscle-building ingredient of feeds.

Some suggestions to motorists
who want to cooperate with the

way safety, made in a bulletin from
the highway department, include
the following.
See that you have two good
headlamps and one rear lamp in
working order. Renew bulbs
promptly if any burn out. Have
your lamps tested at an official
lamp adjusting station. If there is
none close by, test your lamps on
a level road on foggy night. If
the main beam points upward in
stead of on the road ahead, have
them adjusted at once.
See that your vehicle complies
with the state law governing
length, width and height. Do not
carry loads exceeding fourteen tons
without a permit at any time. OBJ
serve all load restrictions posted on
soft roads and old bridges.
Practice safety. Keep to the
right. Do not go on the left side
of the road to pass other cars
when there is traffic coming in the
opposite direction. Slow down at
turns and crossings where the
view is obscured.
Be sure you have the right kind

Traffic Corps Organized
to Aid Traffic Patrol
To be Limited to Enforcement of
Laws to Vehicles on the Trunk
Highways

The first step towards the or
ganization of the Minnesota traffic
patrol, authorized by an act of the
last legislature, was made last
week when Earle Brown resigned
as sheriff of Hennepin county to
accept the position as head of the
new traffic unit, offered him by G..
M. Babcock, commissioner of
highways. 1t may be month or
more, however, before any state
patrolmen are visible on the high
ways.
Mr.. Browns first task will be to
go through several hundred appli-
cations on file with the highway
department and select not to ex-
coed thirty-five men to constitute
the new patrol unit. The men Sc
lected will go through course Of
training and study traffic laws and
traffic control methods before go
ing on the highways.
The duties of the patrolmen are
limited to the enforcement of laws
relating to the use and operation
of vehicles on the trunk highways.
According to Mr.. Babcock, the aim
will be to help traffic move safely
No arrests will be made for minor
attractions of the traffic rules
when these are unintentional or
due to lack of understanding of
the traffic law. Reckless drivers

have reached extremely high levels
and receivers were forced to store
certain lots in preference to alb
sorbing a loss, through current
use. Egg breakers have curtailed
purchases considerably, all of
which resulted in lower quotations
and an effort to buy eggs in the
country more in line with possible
selling values.
Chicago egg market on Firsts is
29R cents, as compared with 80
to 80 3-4 cents on Monday a week
ago. New York market on f1rsts is
80 to 321s cents.
There is practically no change in
the live fowl situation. Receipts of
light weight stock continue very
small while heavy weights consti-
tute the bulk of receipts. Supply
as whole continues very light.

in leghorn fowls is 81 cents, col
