THORPE MAY COACH. By HAL SHERIDAN. College sport fans in New York are considerably stirred up by the un- official announcement that Jim Thorpe, former Giant player and fa-! mous- football star, is to tie up wita the Columbia university as football coach. Jim is now in Jersey City playing with that club and the drop from the big league circuit to one of the minors probably is not alto- gether to the liking of the ex-gridiron star. ' No one at the big university on Harlem Heights will say he has been invited to steer the proposed foot- ball squad, but on the other side- line ,neither will they deny it. Thorpe is without doubt the best man Columbia could secure for & coach. He knows the game as few living men do, bar none. And besides his knowledge of the pigskin sport he is the best all- :|around athlete hanging around loose in this section of the country. He could ably assist Columbia in all branches of the track and field game and next spring would fit in well as a baseball coach. He is a mighty good player on the diamond-and had it not been for the player limit rule would undoubtedly had stuck with McGraw. About the only thing that will bar Columbia from gaining Thorpe's ser- vices i§’ the coin of the realm.

Seeing Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy so highly recommend- ed, I got her a bottle and it relieved the cough at once.

NATIONAL CONFERENCE OF CHARITIES AND CORRECTION Baltimore, Md., May - 15.—Dele- gates of charity and correction or- ganizations from all over the coun- try are now in session here. Men and women interested in charitable work of every description have papers to read on the various phases of charity work. Dr. Edward T. Devine, Ph. D., di- rector of the School of Philanthropy, New York, and E. R. A. Seligman, professor of economics in Columbia university, New York, made ad- dresses today. Unemployment was described as the most serious cause of destitution and dependency during the last win- ter. Statistics were cited showing that in New York City alone during January and February about 400,- 000 were unemployed, and evidence given that few sections of the country escaped some share in the evil. Un- usual unemployment was due to the war, but the winter before unemploy- ment was widespread and reasons were given for considering the proh- lem one of growing seriousness. The principal causes operating ev- ery year were described as changes in centers of production and in in- dustrial methods, and the increasing prevalence of seasonal industries. It was urged that remedies for uner- ployment due to these causes would also prove valuable aids for dealing with that due to extraordinary causes like the great war. “It is much more important that the right parties tharry than to in- sist that they shall never separate,” declared Prof. James H. Tufts, of the University of Chicago, in a stirring address. He made an impassioned plea for a broader ethical basis of the morals of the family. “There is perhaps no field of ethics which in the past has been a point of view more prevailingly negative than the morals of the family,” ke said. “It has emphasized not only innocence but ignorance; it forbids divorce, but takes little account of positive measures to assure good homes. It has had more horror' for illegitimacy than forethought for healthy children in proper surround- ings. “Four new values, the value of wo- men’s freedom and development, the value of the child, the value of sex and especially of motherhood, -and lastly, the value of sound stock well reared for national life and for the life of the world must be reckoned with in the new ethics of the family. We can no longer meet the situation by taboos and negations.” CONFESSES T0 MURDER Port Arthur, Ont., May 15.—Claim- him $100 to murder her husband, Amelia Palma, aged 23, confessed to killing William Liehtenan, home- steader on the Kaministiquia river. At the time of the confession he was on trial for his life. At first he de- nied all knowledge of the murder, then broke down and told how he had fallen in love with Mrs. Leihtepan and accepted her offer. It was on October 5, 1914, that Leihtenan was murdered and Palma was arrested on | December 7. Phone 91 Results are most aiways certaln when you use a Ploneer want One-half cent a word. Phone 31.
