 MT. Mitten was President of Nit ten Management. Inc, which oper- ates the Philadelphia Rapid Tan sit Company and the Yellow Cab Company of Philadelphia.

and settled on a small farm at Goodland, Ind. The son did his share of the farm work until he was 2l, and in his spare time learned telegraphy in the railroad freight office at Goodland.
 MT Mitten began his practical railroad experience as joint agent for the Chicago and Indiana Coal Railway and the Big Four Rail- road at Wynham, Ind, in 1885. His pay was $50 month. Two years later he was made local agent at Attica, Ind, where he obtained ex- perience in train dispatching. Next he went with the Denver and Rio Grande at Pueblo, Colo, and later as assistant freight agent aS Den yer.
 After three years MT. Mitten took charge of short steam suburban line running from Denver to the coal mines in the foothills at Golden, Colo. While in that posi- Ition he electrified parts of the road, thus gaining his first knowledge of electricity as a transportation agency. The success of that ex- pertinent created in him an ann bition to enter the electric street railway industry.

Once her namo appeared in brig -lt lights. Fame and fortune favored her but today she is poverty strick- en and desperate.
 That is the story olsclosed in a Chicago police court, when Truly Shattuck, once beautiful actress, was arrested for stealing $1650 dress from local department store.
 T don't know why I did it" she cried at Detective Headquarters. "I've had no work for three months. They told me my vaudeville skit wouldn't go over any more. I've tramped the streets looking for work. I've read the want ads. The green dress looked so pretty, and it was only $16.50-but I didn't have the $16.50."
 In her poverty she was too proud to appeal to friends, but friend, a restaurant owner, heard Of her arrest and posted bond for her.
 "A woman must dress if she wants to work" the fifty fouryear- old actress said. And I did need work so badly. But, oh, the shame of it! What position for one who has shaken hands with 8 King"
 Miss Shattuck said she was broke. The rent on her lodging house room was past due. The one time star of first magnitude had lost it's light behind the clouds of marching years.
 Her vaudeville skit drew its last half hearted, scattered applause on the kerosene circuit several months ago. Then she worked as a wait ress, a seamstress. She lost these jobs. No one seemed to want to employ the woman who had enter tained two continents and who had smiled down from the cinema screen vis-a-vis with Fairbanks, Mclean, Valentino and Sydney Chaplin.

fits to stockholders, employees and the public
 One of his pet theories in bring ing about such conditions was that of labor becoming capital and fos- eering the cooperative effort be- tween employee and employer. His theory was given the test of time, and in the opinion of Philadel- phians at least, was found to be practicable in every respect.
 The achievement of the Mitten policy in Philadelphia might be said to have been the climax of prevz ious efforts in Milwaukee, Buffalo and Chicago.
 Although financial reward usually accompanied his successes, MT. Nit tens chief joy in rehabilitating a street railway system lay in the accomplishment. That he was lit- tie interested in material reward for his work was indicated after he had begun to put Philadelphia's S, transportation system upon it's feet,
 When I was 40," he said, T had all the money I wanted-enough to afford any one man as much as he could reasonably enjoy in the world. Today have less personal wealth than I had at 40. If I live to be 100 I shall have no more"
