THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. D. ©. FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 15. 1898—TEN PAGES. 7 MATCHES AT THE FAIR. It is Considered a Fairly Good Matrimonial Market. Men and Women Sight-Seeing To- gether Naturally Become At- tached to One Another. Correspondence of The Evening Star. CHICAGO, September 12, 1998. “It is a fairly good matrimonial market,” said a Washington visitor to the worid’ fair in conversation with the correspondent of The Star. He had made a careful study of the human exhibit, and knew what he was talking about. “It never occurred to mé@ that it Is @ matrimonial market at all,” said the cor- Fespondent. “Oh, well, you don’t know about those things,” he said. “Every place that larse crowds come to is a matrimonial market. Now, this is not as good as the seashore in one way, for the people are very busy sce- ing the sights, and, consequently, have not much time to see each other, but It-1s bet- ter than the seashore in another semse, be- cause there are as many men as women. On the whole, I pronounce it fairly good, and he walked away with the important air that belongs to a judge of awards. AS a man leaves Washington and four- neys to the west, he becomes aware that he is penetreting the region where’many of the occupations that are reserved for men chiefly in the east are filled by young wo- men. They sell him his ticket on the ele- vated railroad, they make out his check for the dinner he has eaten, they even sit be- hind the gratings at the banks, they are almost as numerous in the great office buildings as the men themselves. It ts only natural, therefore, to find hundreds of these girls attending to the wants of the visit ors at the fair. Some are gool lookins, fome are ugly, some are sweet and pleas- ant, others are sour and disagreeable, but, really, very few can be classed among the last named. Nearly all of them are young. ‘The ‘foreign exhibitors have caught the American spirit, and in all their sections they have girls to wai: upor the public and answer questions, and some of them can reply to a question that comes in any one Of five languages. As a Matrimonial Market. But about the fair as a matrtmontal mar- ket. It will probably be found at the end that a good many hundreds of people have fallen in love with each other who would never in all likelihood have met {f it had not been for the fair. They are introduced, or they introduce themselves, at the hotel or boarding house and then they proceed to do the fair together. As long as they go about in a business-like way looking at all the sights they have little oppor- tunity to do anything else, but when even- ing comes and with ft the quiet seat and the fireworks and illuminations are the a! tractions then, perhaps, z few tender words may be spoken. After a certain stage in the world’s fair love making there are no more sights to be seen, for the pair evoid the crowds and seck only secluded spots where they can bill and coo. It was one of these smitten people that confessed to the writer that the first day of his arrival he had seen something of the exhibits; that the second day he had met “the one woman in all the world who,” &c., and that after that he had been endeavoring, with scme success, to see her without being bothered by the rest of the show. In the morning they would sit on a bench on the Wooded Island. Toward afternoon the crowd would @rive them away from there. He sald he tried taking her around in the Ferris wheel, but they got so much absorbed in one another and talked so mucn that it ‘Was not unti? the wheel stopped that they Roticed it had been going, and then they perceived also that all the other passen- fers in the same car with them had been listening to them and laushing at them. He next tried the veranda of the coffee pavilion in the Java village and this he had found quite satisfactory. In order to present some sort of excuse for sitting there a long time he kept absorbing coffee and she kept drinking cocoa. He was afraid to calculate how much they had drunk, but he thought it probable they nad each got away with a keg full at ‘east. After the second afternoon in Java he declared that the natives began to !augh at him, so he left and took to the water, alternating between gondolas and lauaches, until his money gave out and she went home. He has been to see her since and is now en- waged. Why He Bought Photographs. There are a good many matches being made among the girls who sell water, pea- nuts, popcorg, rings, frait, photographs, souvenir coins, fans, trinkets and a thou- sand other articles znd the young men who purchase these articles. Thus, one young man was discovered with a bundle in his hand. ‘What have you got there?’ he was asked. “Photographs.” he seplied. “Of yourself?” io, no, of the fair." ‘Of what buildings?" He looked perplexed for a moment, stam- mered, grew red, and finally blurted out, “I'm hanged if I know!" ‘Why did you buy them?" Well” he began, “they are pretty—that fs. she is pretty—and she recommended them, you know.” “Did it take you a long time to select those photographs?” “No, not long.” he said. “Let's see,” and he looked at his watch—“yes, by Jove, I have been three hours choosing these Photographs, and I can’t remember what they are at all, You see, she recommend- ed them—' And this young man went his way. The next day, it is probable, he purchased more Photographs and finaliy he doubtless de- Sired permission to add her own to the col- jection. There used to be a certain fruit seller at ‘the fair, who has since gone home, who always sold more fruit than any one else. She was tall and dark and she wore a great shock of curly black hair that she failed to te up. Her booth was in an exposed posi- tion and breezes from the lake used to toss her hair about her hear It was a great fight to see. She presided over mounds of golden and purple California fruits, but she herself was the most beautiful fruit of H. There was a Columbian guard, who 23 also since gone home, and his station was near this fruit stand—yes, !t was very near it. If he guarded nothing else, he guarded the fruit. A fine-looking and plea- sant-spoken guard he was and he evidently liked his station, but after the handsome fruit-seller went home, the guard was n: longer there, and an inquiry revealed the fact that he had resigned from the force. Maybe her home and his are now the same. same. ‘The Girls Are Pretty. These world’s fair girls may be said to average pretty. Among the visitors pretty faces are not the rule. If a foreigner wish- es to see the pretty women, for whom America is so famous, he should not be satistied with what he sees in the crowds at the fi Pennsylvania avenue, or Con- necticut avenue, or F street, ‘shows more pretty girls in an afternoon than the mo ing ero at the fair show in a we but the girls who belong in the fair—wh are part of it, in fact—are pretty. Th truth is, that it Is necessary that they be pretty. Whe can thoroughly enj oa if an unattractive girl one of those bewitching Dutch caps, or: mented with brilliant brass trimmings, an her smile ts pleasant, and her cheeks are Fosy—does not all this add a flavor to comforting beve she 3? even with the plebelan pop-corn—are we Rot more apt to buy ft from a_ preity American girl, than from a dirty old Itai- fan vender? Marriages havé been contracted among the st eve nge people in the Midway Plaisance. There was sorrow there not Jong when one of the dusky beauties of the Bedouin encampment ran away with an Arabian gentleman who had long be enamored of her. She returned, how er, and the escapade was patched up. In the land of Dahe y the amazons are all said to be married. and so warlike is their as- pect, and so fierce Is their reputat! Ro gay-Lotharios from other village Midway have ventured to make ¥ances to them, but the Turkish girls ani the Vienna girls and the Algerian girls live in a constant atmosphere of flirtation. It may reasonably be expected that serious results will follow. On the whole, the us- sertion with which this article began {3 borne out by an investigation.

Crops Benefited by the Recent Rains —Political Points—Notes. Correspondence of The Evening Star. ROCKVILLE, Sept. 13, 1833. The copious rain of the last forty-eight hours, although interfering with the vut- ting off of the corn crop, is well received by farmers in the prospect of good fall pasturage. It is now reported that the corn crop will be saved without the damage anticipated from the effects of the late ze- vere storm. = ‘The very low price of wheat, which has prevailed for several months, will have a tendency to curtail the area of land to be seeded in this county during this fall, and farmers talk of turning their attention to other crops. Some experiments have al- ready been madd in this section in raising bariey, which have been fairly successful. ‘This crop is of quick growth, and being jut in early in the spring matures in about three months, produces more to the acré than wheat and brings a better price per bushel. That something will have io be done appears to be evident to ail farmers who keep an eye om the columns of profit and loss. Mr. Wm. Clagett, an estimable citizen of Potomac district, died at hits home on Mon- day in the sixtieth year of his age. De- ceased was a son of the late Horatio Clagett and a member ‘of a large and influential family closely connected with the early history of the county. Impressive funeral services took place to- day over the remains of Mr. Elisha John Hall, who died at his residence near Brooke- ville on Sunday night jast. A large con- course of people from all parts of the coun- ty _were in attendance. ‘The prohibition party held the opening meeting of the fall campaign at Laytous- ville on Friday lust, quite a number peng present. So far as the democrats and re- publicans are concerned there is a3 yet no sign of a move. The republicans appear to be satisfied with a “still hunt,” while their opponents do not appear to have enurely recovered from the vad feeting engendered by the primary election. It appears to be generally admitted that the vote in Novem- ber will contain some elements of surprise. The following business has been traasact- ed in the orphans’ court: The will of Geo. Peter, deceased, was admitted to probate, and the renunciation of Eliza L. Peter, the executrix appointed by the will, ving: been filed letters of administration, with the will annexed, on the personal estate of the deceased were granted to Robt. B. Peter; bond, $4.50). Letters of administration ad colligendum on the personal estate of Lewis Vaden, deceased, were granted to Merrill D. Knight; bond, $2,000. Martha E. Selby and E. H. Etchison, administrators of How- ard M. Selby, deceased, and Francis T. Murphy, executor of John T. Murphy, de- ceased, filed inventories of personal estate of their decedents, and were granted orders of sale. The latter also filed inventory of real estate. Charles G. Du Fief, admini: trator of Lavinia, Beail, deceased, passed first and final administration account. In the case of Henrietta Etchison and ochers against Thamas Anderson, executor of Re- mus G. Dorsey, and others, the defendants filed their answer to the bill filed by the Plaintiffs. The following passed final ad- ministration accounts: James D. Loird, administrator, with the will annexed, cf Henrietta J. Dunlop, deceased; Hannah P. Chandlee, executrix of Mary Hill Chandlee; John T. Higdon, executor of Matilda Case, and Ignatius T. Fulks and P. M. Smith, ex- ecutors of John T. De Sellum. Hannah P. Chandlee, executrix of Mary Hill Chandlee, and George P. and Clarence Hoskinson, ad- ministrators of Hilleary Hoskinson, de- ceased, filed inventories of personal estate of their decedents. The will of Patrick Cuff, sr., deceased, was filed for probate and record. The county commissioners have offered a reward of $200 for the apprehension of the parties who recently stole horses trom ‘Messrs. Childs and Stonestreet of this coun- ty. They also offer a reward of $150, sup- plemented by a Teward of $100 by the Mu- tual Fire Insurance Company, for informa- tion that will lead to the arrest and con- vietion of the parties who set fire to the dwelling house of Mrs. Samuel R. Pries:, near Takoma Park, some time ago. | —— BROOKLAND. Miss Bernice Kennard of University Heights has been visiting her friend, Miss Annie McAleer of Washington. Miss Francene Marean of Brookland is slowly recovering from her recent severe illness. Masters John M. Carr, jry of West Brookland and Joseph McNamara of Brookland have again entered Gonzaga College. These young gentlemen carried off high honors from their alma mater last term. Miss Agnes Brooks, after a very pleas- ant visit in Minnesota, will this week join her brother in Chicago. Rev. J. N. Davis of the Fifteenth Street M. E. Church of Washington presided very acceptably at the services of the Brookland M. E. mission last Sunday, and next Sab- bath Rev. W. H. M. Lemon of Gorsuch Chapel ts expected to preach in the town hall at 3 p.m. The initiatory degree was again con- ferred in the Brookland Lodge, I. 0. 0. F., this week and the team work was done by the Brookland Lodge in a most commenda- ble manner. Miss Beatrice Meegan is away on a trip to Philadelphia and Atlantic City. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Hospital of East Brookland, with their son Ralph, have just returned from a pleasant outing at Co- lonial Beach. Sneak thieves are reported as entering the residence of Mr. James Connors this week and securing quite a sum of money from a sideboard drawer. A horse attached to a ‘carriage contain- ing Mrs. Chilton, a lady friend and a baby took fright at the corner of Lansing and Auth streets and ran away. At the corner of Lith and Dover streets the horse and carriage were completely overturned, with the occupants underneath and mirac:lous- ly unhurt, though the baby’s face was Lud- ly scratched, and all very much frightened. The horse was lying upon his back in a gully, with his feet in the alr, and it took quite a while to extricate him from his peculiar position. —_——_— “What's the Matter W ment” To the Editor of The Evening Star: I have seen through your valuable paper that all the principal organizations and clubs of the city will be in the Capitol cen- tennial parade, but not one word ts men- tioned about the riders of the silent steed. Will any one be so kind as to inform me the Whee! what is the matter with the League of | American Wheelmen, Georgetown Cycle | Club, Arlington Wheelmen, Columbia Ath- |letie’ Assoclation, of P.D."Q. Cycle Club? Just think of 1t,’ Washington, the paradise | of bicyclists, with twenty thousand riders, not to be represented in the parade. If our wheelmen have been so neglectful, why not have a bicycle carnival? How sightly it would be to see 5,000 white and red lights flash trom the lamps of 5,000 | wheels decorated in red. white and blue. Let one and all of the bi. clubs of Wash- ington send out notifications to thelr mem- bers, and inform them if they wish to par- pate in the carnival to send thelr names to the secretary, who will forward the same to the general committee of the L. A. W. of Washington, who, I am sure, will only’ be too glad to see their members and friends the shining light of September 18. A WHEELMAN. eee ‘The Early Closing Movement. | To the Editor of The Evening Stai ‘Apropos to the early closing movement among clothing establishments it is grati- fying to learn that the federation of labor has taken an interest in the matter and adopted réxolutions favoring the plan. In this they deserve the thanks of those di- rectly interested, for surely the mechanics and jaboring man’s opinion must have some influence upon any progressive merchant. Give the poor clerk a chance for recrea- tion and he will be better fitted to serve you properly. A CLOTHING SALESMAN. Spectal Cars for Tobacco Users. To the Bilitor of The Evening Star As the time approaches for the retire- ment of the summer car on our street rail- roads, will you please use the influence of ur valuable paper to induce the railroad Companies to protect those who do not use tobacco from the nauseating habits of the users of the weed? What decent person, man or woman, has not ben sickened time and again by a pool of tobacco Jufce on the floor of a street car, and by the author thereof striving to make it larger every square or 30? Surely the feelings of the great majority of non-spitters should be respected, and to this end I would suggest that the compa- nies reserve every third car for the users of bacco, having it a distinctive color or propriately labeled, and prohibiting the vf the weed in the cars not so colored or labeled It would seem to be as easy to enforce such a rule as it is the one now tn use, of “no smoking,” which is on all of the box cars. I am Sure no non-user of tobacco would to enter the car reserved for the lusers thereof. Let them be separate. G. HYATTSVILLE. The Hyattsville Building Association held its regular monthly meeting last Tuesday night at Mechanics’ Hall. Mr. Louis D. Wine presided. Loans were made on twen- ty-four shares of stock. A semi-annual dividend of 5 per cent was declared. The receipts amounted to about $2,900. John Fleshman and William Roth of Beltsville were arraigned before Justice Hurley in Bladensburg last Tuesday for throwing stones at Mrs. Haney of Belts- ville while she was driving on the road in her carriage. They were fined $2 and costs each, and also put under bond of $% each te keep the peace. Miss Sadie Perkins of Baltimore, who has been visiting Mrs. George H. Webb of this place, has returned to her home in that city. She was accompanied by Mrs. Webb, who wiil remain there several days. Mr. Lewis Ford of the firm of Duckett, Ford & Co. is critically il at the home of Mr, Welsh in this village. Hyattsville promises to be unusually gay this winter. There is some talk of erganiz- ing a dancing club here and if the project is carried out weekly dances will be given, The progressive euchre club will shortly commence to hold its semi-monthly meet- ings, and the choral society will resume its weekly rehearsals after the centennial cele- bration of the laying of the corner stone of the Capitol. An effort will also be made to reorganize the old Webster Debating So- ciety, which afforded so much amusement to the young people several years ago. Mr. J. C. Boykin, while using a chisel yesterday, badly cut his wrist. His wound was dressed by Dr. Ervin. The Maryland Agricultural College opened Yesterday with a large attendance of stu- ents. The independent single taxers are arrang- ing for an active prosecution of the cam- paign for their county ticket, among both colored and white voters. A meeting is to be held in Bladensburg at the Bethel: Church next Monday evening, another at Flester’s Hall, Laurel, on Monday, September 25, to be addressed by Representative Jerry Simp- son, and @ third at Glendale next Thurs- day evening. Other meetings are being ar- ranged for. They claim to be drawing large- ly and in about ecual proportions from both the democratic and republican parties. Mr. E. M. Burchard, chairman of the com- mittee, empowered to fill the vacancies on the ticket, informed The Star reporter last evening that the vacancies would be short- ly filled. They consist of one candidate for the house of delegates, one for sheriff and two for the commissioners’ court. There are some democrats and_ republicans who are of the opinion that the new ticket will not poll a hundred votes in the county. Mr. Henry W. Clagett, chairman of the republican state central committee for this county, has issued a call for the primary meetings of \the several election districts, to be held on Saturday, September 30, 1893, to elect delegates to the county convention, which will assemble at Upper Marlboro’ on Monday, October 2, 1893. Mrs. A. M. Hostetter of Riverdale recent- ly died at her home at that place. She was sixty years of age, and twice married, her first husband being a Mr. Leporte of Sus- sex county, N. Y. The published statement that every other house in Hyattsville is either for rent or for sale is greatly exaggerated. While there have been an unusual number of va- cant houses here this year, on account of the financial stringency, there certainly have not been enough to justify such a re- port. Judge Brooke has drawn the following ju- Tors to serve for the fall term of the cir- cuit court, which convenes at Upper Marl- boro’ Monday, October 2, 1893: Grand jurors—John B.

Mr. and Mrs, Boynton will return to Washington Saturday from a two weeks’ sojourn in Takoma. ses Street Railrozds Taken to Task. To the Editor of The Evening Star: Your strictures upon the shortcomings of the Washington street car companies in Wednesday's issue are well chosen, and 1 feel that you should give the belt line @ rap for continuing the red lights on the old yellow cars. They are very misleading at night and are a source of much annoyance to the many who ride on them, particularly when it is raining, and after waiting for a red light you find you are on the wrong car, when you get to Ith and E streets, go- ing south. "The Columbia line, also, should be informed that if they cannot keep their horses on the roadbed of their tracks through New York avenue between 9th and 13th streets they will be compelled to com- ply with the law and pave between and two feet on elther side of their rails. When they had one horse cars on this road there appeared to be no need for the paving be- tween and bevond their tracks, but now, with two horses to each car, the necessity appears; the parking over which they travel is being cut Into ditches by the horses and the inud and dust which ts thus created ts becoming @ nulsance beyond endurance.

Experiences of the Recent Elections for School Officials in Michigan. ‘Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Sept. 14, 1898. ‘The annual school election was held recent- ly and the politicians who urged the legis- lature to give the women the right to vote in municipal elections wish that the bill had been buried so far under the ground that Tesurrection would have been impossible. The school election is non-partisan and ordinarily little interest is manifested in It. It 1s held to choose members of the school board, one from each ward, who serve with- out compensation. In former years women were allowed to vote in the school elections and rarely availed themselves of the priv- flage. The enactment of the law by the last legislature giving them municipal franchise Seemed to stir them up this time, however, and they voted more numerously than be- fore. Before the election the women held @ series of mass metings, under the leader- ship of Mrs. Ketcham, whose husband was chairman of the republican congressional committee last fall. A city committee was appointed and the announcement was made that the women would make a clean sweep. When the smoke of the battle cleared away they found that they had elected only one member of the board and she was elected without opposition. Women in Politics. In the election the fact was demonstrated that women in politics are utterly unreliable and uncertain. They are reckless in their statements while campaigning, they deal in Personalities to a greater extent than the men ever thought of, and as for standing by another they don’t do it. Feminine traits and pecullaritles cro} out in ‘the briet campaign, some of them Very funny. One lady was out campaign- {ng for a woman candidate. She did not look up the record the evening before she started on her tour and all the morning she circulated the story that the opponent was a Catholic and was especially pronounced in her statements when she called on those Whom she knew to be Protestants, Just be- fore noon she discovered that the other cun- didate was not a Catholic, but was a leading member of the church of the same denom- ination to which she herself belonged. She tells then what happened. She went home Oren ae through the remaining days e campaign worked earn am Frogectsa si aged wie, in the fifth ward occurred the liveliest contest of all. ‘Three candidates were in the field, one woman, one preacher and @ work- ingman. The woman made a very bitter fight against the preacher, and on election day all hands turned out. Each of the three candidates had a full force of workers on hand, both male and female, and they lined the sidewalks for half a block on both sides of the polling place. Men and women work- ers alike buttonholed the voters as they ap- Proached, and finally became so troublesome that the police had to be called in to keep order. The election resulted tp the election of the workingman candidate by a plurality of about fifty over the preacher, and the woman candidate had only 160 votes out of 1,600 cast. In the fifth ward ill feeling and animosi- ties were aroused, especially among the Women, that will take months to wipe out. The women are unlike men. If a person wishes otherwise than they wish they look upon it as a personal affront, and that {s an end to friendship in that quarter. A Test to Be Made. If the women vote in the municipal elec- tions the ballot box will be hedged about with regulations and restrictions which are not required in the school elections. ‘The Australian system of voting will be ob- served, instead of the old-fashioned ticket and posters, and the secrecy of the ballot will be preserved. The women in Detrolt expect to be allowed to vote in the munici- pal elections there in November, and will do so unless the superintendent ‘finds that the law is invaded. Before the school election here City At- torney Taylor was asked to give his upinion upon the subject enactment as {t applied to the election, and he put himself on record regarding the general appiication of the law. He held that the state constitu- tion distinctly gives males only the right cf franchise n the election of state officers. Supervisors, constables and justices of the peace are provided for in the state const! tution to be elected by the qualified voters. These officers are always elected on the elty ticket with aldermen, mayor and other officers. He holds that it wi!l be impossible for women to vote for the purely munteipal offices without violating the secrecy.of the ballot. The law is incapable of practical application, His opinion has’no wetght, of course, except as that of any good lawyer, but it is very likely he will be sustained by the supreme court. No steps have bzen taken yet to test the law, but undoubtedly it will be tested before the municipal elec- tions in Detroit in November. This can he done {n the form of 8 mandamus upon the registration board, and the test case will probably take this form. es TUESDAY'S YACHT RACB. Contest. ‘The London Times’ report of the yacht race for the Brenton’s Reef cup says the Britannia won by 21-2 seconds, but makes no mention of a protest by Mr. Carroll. ‘The Sportsman has a similar report of the result of the contest, but says that Mr. Car- roll lodged a formal protest against the de- cision of the judges, not because any un- fairness was suspected, but in order to keep the matter open subject to any misun- derstanding of the New York racing condi- tions, and because a difference of less than three seconds over such a long course leads him to think that a furthef circulation of the figures, together with the rating of the two vessels, might terminate in a reversal of the committee's decision. Under the caption “Retirement of the American,” the Sportsman says that the race for the Cape May cup has been indefi- nitely Geferred. ‘The Times describes the race as an un- parelleled performance. Nothing in the annals of yacht racing, it says, can compare with the extraordinarily close sailing in this race. Neither yacht was at any time over a minute ahead of the other, and for fully half the distance were not separated more than a couple of lengths. Altogether tt was arace beating far away, in every particu- lar, anything recorded in the history of yachting. Over @ long course and in a try- ing sea, there was not a “carry away’ worthy ‘to be recorded, although the masts of both, when the wind laid on, caused anxiety. The match conclusively proves that the modern yacht is as far ahead of the old type in regard to sea-going quall- ties as in speed. The Navahoe was on her best point in having a broad reach over the entire course, while on the other hand, the Britannia does not excel in that particular point, as she does in sailing to windward and to leeward. So heavy was the sea that for over one hundred miles both boats were under two sails only, yot even then they reached a speed of eleven knots an hour, pounding the water in a wonderful way, with the drift flying twenty feet up their masts. Mr. Carroll made the objection that the starting vessel was not in the same position at the finish as at the start. The answer was that essel may not anchor in a fair way in the night time. The time of the yachts was taken as soon as each vessel came in line with the stream of the Needles lght-house, which was better than a float- ing mark. soe A True Philadelphia Story. From the Philadelphia Times. ‘The wicked men who steal have penetrat- ed even into the sacred precincts of the office of the superintendent of police. Until yesterday a pretty little blue enam- eled sign, the lettering on which was in spotless white, ornamented the top of Clerk Roop's desk, which stands in the ante-room to the office of Superintendent Linden. It Somebody Now there {s trouble around headquarters, and the atmosphere has assumed the mel- ancholy hue of the background of the de- parted motto. When “Billy” Foster, the messenger, arrived yesterday morning, and discovered that the “terrorizer,” as the in- offensive little strip of tin was called, had been embezzled, he went out and in an agony of grief had all his hair cut off. Roop followed sult, and Charley Henry would have done likewise, but—. Captain Miller refused to state what steps had been taken to apprehend the culprit. It ts known, however, that the loss of the sign was a severe shock. People would come into the office and, while waiting for an au- dience would read the solemn comic papers provided for such emergencies. Presently they would lift thelr eyes and sce the sign. The gloom would leave their faces and knowing grins would linger instead. Another sign has been ordered, which will read: WE HARDLY EVER SLEEP. : The detectives are being closely guarded. ——= EDUCATIONAL. EDUCATIONAL. EDUCATIONAL.
