At this time sport. “Bull” Johnstone, as | he was called, decided that he would | accept a position with the Old {Jerry McAuley Water Street Mission | of New York city and has remained | with the Mission since the fall of 1909. He is a native of the Cherry Hill section of New York and after losing out as a haseball player he took to gambling. As a gambler he came in touch with Herman Rosen- thal, the notorious New York gambler who was murdered several years ago by four gunmen. He was also ac- quainted with Police Lieutenant Charles Becker, who was implicated in the murder and later electrocuted at the Sing Sing prison. While Mr. Johnstone was not in any way connected with any of the parties he knew all of them and in his addrss he will explain the under- world life as it really is in New York city. During the past several vears Mr. Johnstone has been speaking of his life’s story at churches and Y. M. C. A’s throughout the country During he recent war he addressed as many as 150.000 service men. The officials of the local Y. M. C. A. feel that they have been very fortunate in securing the services of this wel- far worker and expect that many will turn out to hear him talk.

New Haven, Feb. 14.—The New Haven Chamber of Commerce yester- day voted to approve the report of a [ committee which recommended that { the chamber favor, the present loca- tion for a new city hall in preference to a change of site to Elm street. The favored by many, would include the Yale graduate club, Mr. Stokes’ house, Hendrie hall and oth- er buildings. It has been even sug- gested that practically the entire block from Temple to College streets with frontage on Elm street be taken, and the present city hall site be sold. The chamber’'s committee recom- mended that the present site be re- tained, the Leffingwell building at the corner of Court street be taken, Court street be widened and much property in Orange street in the rear of the present hall be incorporated. In effect most of the block would be used for municipal purposes. The chamber meeting was one of vigorous | discussion and the committee’s recom- | mendations finally endorsed. They will ?

PLAN A DIRECT LINE FROM CHILE TO JAPAN the fair—one Mutual Demand for Products Leads | to Organization of $1,000,000 ‘ Shipping Firm Tokio, Feb. 14—Plans for the open- ing of direct lines of sailing vessels between Chile and Japan now are being made by leading business men i of the two nations. With this object | | in view a shipping firm to be capital- ized at over $1.000,000, is being pro- { moted with the intention to buy or | { build six sailing vessels, each of about { 5,000 tons, and to be equipped with auxiliary engines. i | Francisco Rivas, minister of Chile j te Japan, has been encouraging the | project since he reached this country | two vears ago. Japan is one of the principal con- sumers of Chilian nitrates, and im- ports a great deal of copper and iron ores and other raw materials, abundant in Chile. On the other! hand, there is understood to be a great demand in Chile for Japanese lcolton goods, glasswares, porcelains and other products; but their expor- tation to Chile is hampered by high freight rates. i Japan is now assiduously engaged in extending her trade to the South Pacific Islands, the Straits Settlements and other places and it has been sug- gested that the proposed lines of sail- ing vessels could be outlined for this purpose. Several Cases of Seemingly New Phase of Deadly “Sleeping Sick- ness”’ Appear in English Capital. London, Feb. 14.—-Fight or nine: cases of what appears to be a new phase of the deadlv ‘“sleeping sick- | ness” are puzzling the London hospi- | | tal doctors. ! The disease, to which the mame | | encephalitis lethargia has been given, | | presents many of the symptoms of the | | African sleeping sickness, but so far | | the trypanasoma hitherto thought to | be responsible for the sleeping sick- | ness common to the Congo natives | | has not been found in the blood of | patients at the hospital. A representative medical committee ' is investigating the new disease. The house surgeon states it is too | ! early to make a definite statement. | | So far no common factor save the ! overpowering desire to slieep has been { found in cases under notice, nor has it been possible yet to trace the origin of each. « There is said to be no cause for alarm as to the possible spread of the disease. | i Her grst husband | | tlefields of Eurcpe, g0 to the board of aldermen.
