The world is like a looking-glass— it you smile in it, it smiles back; if you frown, it frowns. You may hear it said that one of the conditions of life you cannot make or alter is environment; that it is fixed, inflexible, and that you are help- lessly bound by it. This is not true. Neither a mirror nor life has power but to reflect back what is put into it. The young man who is specially training for his work, acquiring lively interest in it, and becoming master of it, Is attaining an attitude of mind and hear that will cause the world to re- | OUR POLICY.

The police dispersed the crowd and no arrests were made. At the services a few minutes be- ! fore, Bishop Nilan spoke of the !trouble which has been reported in the church and urged that any in the congregation seeking to make trofible leave the church. Some members of the church, it is said, have shown their antagonism to the pastor, who was sent here recently from New Brit- ain. brella. D. A. R, CONVENTION ‘300! Continental Congress is Being Held at Washington Washington, April 18.—Americani- zation, national safeguards against ex- treme radicalism and related questions formed the leading topic of discussion on the program for the 30th continen- tal congress of the Daughters of the American Revolution convening here today to remain in session throughout the week. Hundreds of delegates were on hand to hear the address of greet- ing of Mr. George Miner, president general in formally opening the con- ! gress. Following a day of business sessions devoted. largely to hearing reports from the standing committees of the society, the program for tonight's ses- sion for which President Harding, the cabinet and members of the diploma- tic corps were among the invited guests, included addresses by Sir Auckland Geddes, the British ambas- { sador and J.

He flatly denied hav- ing ever sold a drink. Patrolman Kennedy testified that |at the time of the raid. there were 30 men in the store,at least half a dozen of whom On April 2, the policeman counted 15 men in the place, seven of whom appeared to be under the influence of liquor, while on the following day nine of the 30 men uresent had the appearance of drunkenness. Numerous complaints, the policeman said, had been imade to him. When the squad of policemen entered the place Saturday . night, someone threw a bottle through a window. An investigation disclosed about were drunk. the bottle, partly filled with liquor, in an adjoining room. Information furnished the prose- cuting agent indicated, he said, that the place was turning out more drunks in one day than the so-called Main street saloons were in a month. Kozik’s place is but a few doors away from the fruit store conducted by Makowski. Complaints similar to those of the neighbor were made to the policeman on the beat, who per- sqnally investigated several times. He found whiskey odors permeating the store and several times was attracted by the number of men who entered and left the back room of the place. ! When the police visited Kozik's busi- | ness house Saturday night, he made an effort to destroy the evidence, which consisted of a bottle of alleged whiskey. Policeman Thomas Feeney later found an additional jug of booze. The defense offered by the accused was a novel one. He explained that a wood-vard is connected with his busi- | ness on Grove street, and that he em- ploys a number of men, paying them in drinks. When they finish ‘their work, they come into the store and are paid off. He denied having re- ceived money for any, of the drinks served. Mhe accused offered as a pos- | sible explanation of the presence of many drunks in his place of business that they become drunk elsewhere and then come to his store to make pur- chases. Sergeant Hart and Policeman Pat- rick Howley secured the evidence in the Laurence case in a visit to the place of business Saturday noon. A fine of $35 and costs was impos- ed in the case of Henry Ellison, charged with speeding. He was ar- rested by Motorcycle Policeman W. 8.

Intersecting streets, it was charg- ed, were passed while the car was travelling more than 25 miles.an hour. Ellison said he was not going more than 25 miles an hour at any time, since he would hdve been afraid to travel any faster, particularly where streets intersect. His party was out for a *“good time,” he (.old the court, hence the noise. Patrick McLaughlin was fined $20 for drunkenness and $10 for breach of the peace. He was arrested by Po- liceman Willidm Hayes yesterday at ! the home of his wife after a complaint of | ‘ARMY MURDER WILL | BE FULLY PROBED ‘Pu!hler Admits He Killed Major Cronkhite—Captain Rosenbluth Denies Implication. New York, April 18.—An investiga- tion of the death of Major Alexander P. Cronkhite, son of Brig.-Gen. Adal- bert Cronkhite, at Camp Lewis, Wash- ington, in October, 1918, and the re- ,cent arrésts of former Captain Rob- ert Rosenbluth and Sergeant Roland | P. Pothier, has been ordered by Unit- ed States Attorney-General Daugherty i at the request of United States Sena- tor William M. Calder. It was said that one of the reasons for the decision to go into all the de- tails of the tragedy, was the sudden announcement a days ago the bureau of investigation of the de- partment of justice had turned over all its papers in the case to the offi- cials of Tacoma, Wash., and appar- ently was desirous of withdrawing from the case. Pothier, who was arrested at Provi- dence March 18 by agents of the de- partment of justice, has made five scparate confessions that he murdered Major Cronkhite, according to infor- ' mation received Saturday from J. W. Selden, prosecutor of Tacoma. In the last of these confessions he ! said he had been induced to kill Ma- | Jor Cronkhite by Captain Rosenbluth. The motive for the killing, Mr. Selden admitted, had not been supplied. Cap- ain Rosenbluth is in this city, re- leased under $25,000 bail. He was i detained five days in the Tombs with- { out a warrant, according to his own i statement. nial vesterday of the charges of Po- thier's alleged confession. SINN FEINERS KILL WOMAN FOR REVENGE \ and Shot to Death on River Bank. Dublin, April 18, (Associated Press) ——The first execution of a woman in the strife between the discordant fac- tions in Ireland is announced. She was taken from heér home in Scotstown district of Monaghan yes- terday and shot and killed on the bank of the river. MacCarron, class. Kitty MacCarron. who was about 45 years of age, lived with her par- ents, octogenarians, in a wild, moun- tainous part of the country. About midnight a knock wars heard at the door, and a party of masked men entered and informed the victim they had come for her. fastened her hands behind her back and led her pleading pitifully down a lane about a mile to the main road, by the side of which the body was through the cheek, which is the cus- A card on the body was inscribed: “Spies and informers, beware.

BRITISH CHAPLAIN | TALKS ABOUT INDIA The in- Rev. A, B. Moss at Mcthodish Church —Rev. Dr. Newell Dwight Hillis Next Sunday Evening In spite of the rain yesterday therc were good congregations at the Metho- dist church bothe morning and eveing to hear Rev. A. B. Moss of New York preach a very powerful sermon in the the morning and at night give a clear, strong presentation of present day India. He told how that country, though only half the size of America, has a population three times as big which cannot expand beyond the borders of the! country. The country contains at least 6 distinct races speaking 20 distinct languages and 200 dialects and practicing many dif- ferent religions. With absolutely no homogeneity, they are, never-the-less, making wonderful progress toward a national spirit and government under the wise government of England, he said. Their loyalty to England stood the test wonderfully during the war. They sent vast sums of money and gave many native troops. They were the first of England’s dependencies to get an army on the fighting line. Mr. Moss was in India during the war as chaplain of British troops and his first hand knowledge of the country added much to the interest of his lecture. Next’ Sunday evening, Dr, Newell Dwight Hillis, of Plymouth church, Bropklyn, will preach. The Thursday night meeting will be a union service in this church at which time Mrs. Deborah Knox Liv- ingstone a national speaker for the Y C. T. U. will give an address.
