CURB STOCKS GAIN
AFTER EARLY DROP
Market Continues Irregular,
Although Many Issues Rule
Much Higher.
BY JOHN A. CRoNE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, April 22.--Numerous
new record high prices for 1880 were
scored by leading curb exchange Sc
curities today despite the slackened
trading pace and the irregularity that
marked price trends.
Although Electric Bond & Share,
American Superpower, United Light g.
Power A and other leading power and
light issues opened lower, many of them
improved as the session progressed.
Cities Service was fractionally lower.
Commonwealth Edison and Eastern
States Power B were the first utilities
to surpass previous peak prices. St.
Regis Paper was a trifle better, following
publication of annual report OF the
Niagara Hudson Power Corporation,
which showed the paper company owned
1876 per cent of its stock and was, there
fore, its largest shareholder.
Niagara Hudson Power moved within
narrow limits despite reports on the
floor that the stock soon is about to oe
transferred to the New York Stock Ex-
change. Utility executives understand
Niagara Hudson and Consolidated Gas
will be combined.

Bill to Make Poles Battle
Weekly Amuses Writer

Paris-A bill said to be pending
before the Polish parliament to require
Poles to battle at least once week
has struck a distinctly unsympathetic
chord in the breast of Clement Vautel,
columnist of the Paris lie Journal.
"C~e bath every week isn't much
to put up with, one must admit" he
writes. "Sttll, we know lot of Pari-
slams who do not immense themselves
even that much, and if you ask them
the reason they say: We don't intend
to die in bathtub, like Marat!
"Bath houses are rare enough In
Paris-much more rare, we should say,
than those places which provide water
for aperitifs. We won't bother to
talk about the provinces, where bath
is the big event of lifetime.
Gin Poland the bath is about to be-
come an accessory of organized de-
mocrary, somewhat like the public
school and the voting booth. What
victory for the doctrine of the state!
The citizen today has finally become
an infant, real ward Of his govern
ment. Soon we shall all be sent to
bed and ordered to stay there.
eff this thing is passed the Poles
may we'll wish themselves back under
the comparative freedom of the
czars.''

Sentences Tipsy Negro
To Sing Tenor in Choir

Paulsboro, N. J.-Instead Of going
to jail for intoxication in Paulsboro,
whisky tenors and gin barytones here
after may be sentenced to public duty.
Precedent for this form of punish
ment was established when Mayor
James A. Vert, in imposing fine Of
SIS on Harry Harris, forty years old, a
negro, ordered him to join the choir
Of the Second Baptist colored church.
"They tell me you have very good
tenor voice." said the mayor, sitting
as police recorder, "and I'm going to
make it my business to see that it isn't
wasted. Maybe a job singing in the
church choir will keep you out OF
trouble"
"I'll try it, boss" promised the
amazed defendant.

WATERFOWL READY
FOR BANK ROBBERS
Machine Gun Concealed at
Strategic Point.

Watertown, S. D.-Bank robbers re-
Gently active in states of the North.
west who attempt to raid any Of the
three banks Of Watertown will have
to come to town in war tank, for
they will have to face machine gun
and rifle fire. Through efforts of bank
officers the police department has been
provided with machine gun and two
extra magazines of cartridges for d.
rect protection of the banks. A sec
ond machine gun will be Kept at police
headquarters for emergency purposes.
The machine gun used for the direct
protection of the banks has been
mounted at concealed point where
it commands the intersection on which
the three banks are located, and In
the event of an attempted bank rob-
berry the bandits would at once be ex-
posed to the fire of this machine gun,
which in an instant could sweep clean
the street corners housing the banks
In addition to this machine gun pro-
lection, eight citizens who are expert
marksmen and possess high powered
rifles have formed an organization
and will cooperate with the police
and the sheriff and his deputies In
protecting the banks.
Thus at the slightest alarm, should
bank robbers appear at any of the
banks, they would instantly be under
a hail of machine gun and rifle bull
let's from which no living thing could
emerge. "We are ready" said Chief
Of Police Olson, ito make it hot for
any bandits who pick Watertown
bank to rob-"

NOW LENIN'S BEARD
WAS CUT BY STAIN
Story of Leaders Escape
Told by Zinoviev.

Moscow, O. S. S. R.-How Joseph
Stain. undisputed leader of the Soviet
domain, once turned barber and cut
the beard and mustache of Lenin is
revealed in a dramatic account Of the
scene just written by Gregory Zinoviev.
81 remember how Stain, armed with
scissors, clipped beard and mustache
at the very moment" Zinoviev writes
in an article in Pavda telling of
Lenin's escape in July, 1917.
Hidden In Apartment.
The arrest of the foremost Bolshe-
vik had been ordered by Kerensky's
provisional government as measure
of public safety. Lenin was hidden
in the apartment of certain ALI
douev and great controversy ragged
in Bolshevik ranks as to whether he
ought to give himself up.
Zinoviev gives Stain much of the
credit for the fact that the leader was
not handed over. Lenin himself was
inclined to give up, on the theory adj
vanced by many friends that the gov
eminent would not dare hurt him.
Moreover the widespread charge that
he was German agent, some of the
Bolsheviks feared, would find support
If Lenin continued to hide.
But Stain, Ordjinikidze and others
insisted that the risk was not worth
it. According to Zinoviev their work
helped the central committee of the
Bolshevik faction to reach the de-
cision-by which Lenin was bound
that he must not let himself be ar
rested.
Stain Does Barbering.
It was after that decision was taken
that Stain and some comrades went
to the Allidouev fiat and arranged de-
tails Of the escape. Stalin's final con-
tribution to the plan was to find the
scissors and perform the barbering on
his leader.
Zinoviev is convinced that had Lenin
surrendered he would have been sum-
marily executed and the whole course
of Russian history would have been
different. Stalin's foresight is thus
shown to be in part responsible for
saving not only Lenin's life but the
whole Soviet revolution. Thus, as
Stalin's power increases, more and
more stories of his early wisdom and
Importance are resurrected in the
memories Of those who knew him in
the early days.
