Any person, therefore, who Winkle on the day he was supposed to have been lying in the cellar of the mloon, Friday night, Sept. 16, should report the matter to the police The Herald has found a few olaim they saw him that day, and has published the fact Today a temporary makes great outcry because #t clalms to have found another. The man had nothing special to tell about the orime, except the fact that he saw him. Others, who saw him, muay noticed something peculiar about actions. The Herald stated days ago that people had been found who said they Bad seen the man outside the cellar where, according to at Jeast, according to the confession of Kalkowsk!, he stayed all day. The lat ter “confessed” that he took him out- side about 9:30 that evening. This may be true despite the fact that he ®een on the streets during the day or in the early evening. But it scarcely seems possible that ‘Winkle could have left the saloon after being carried into the cellar by Kalkowski and Nich, without seen by the proprietor, or others. And 1t he was seen by others that day, it is hardy probable that he did not tell some of them about what had happen- ed that morning The information that yo1, an honest man or woman, may have about his dolngs that day is Information that b longw to Justice—that belongs to the police. Do not let your fear of “getting mixed up in it” keep you from telling the police what you know of Winkle's actions that day, ot what he sald. You will doing wrong that may cost another life if you Tefrain; you will be that which is but just and right your nelghbor, yourself and city it you tell voluntarily anything you know about the matter.

ADDING EMPLOYES. A little dispatch from Pittsburgh the other day told of the suggestion of Harry Kerr, of Baltimore, to the effect that every member of the “Kiwanian'" in the United States “add one more employe to your payroll this winter, # of aiding In the solving of the unemployment problem. Mr. Kerr is international president of the Ki- wanis clubs. He was speaking before the unnual meeting of the Pennsyl- as a m vania aistrict of this organization. The successful business man will “Can’t do it—unfair to stockhold- rs—poor business—w. suffer as much nyone.” Let the ‘“successful business man’’ k a few of his stockholders how they feel about it—but then, they may not be “successful business men.”" If the successful business man is alone in charge of his business affairs, let him forget that he is successtul; let him become as one without success; let him do a little poor business; per- haps it would do him good morally. Or another may say: “Those thus employed would be but a drop in the bucket—it would do little good.” Well, let it See if the movement does not spread.

A LITTLE MATTER. New Eritain people are not to be blamed for thinking their city is a little better—just a little better—than the cities lauded so highly by the local papera of those other cities. We are rather proud of the appear- ance of the homes which are so care- fully kept, the lawns, regularly mowed, and the streets well sprinkled. We are rather proud of our shops and their attractive windows behind which one may find splendid goods at reasonable prices—in some cases at bargain prices. Ther: is one littie matter that is oc- casionally neglected, however, and ne- glected so often that those who have charge of cleaning the streets have scarcely time to make this little matter right Reference is made to the throwing of papers or other rubbish along the sidewalks Places have been provided where an aper, an old letter and such be disposed of.

Many times one has to get down on hands and knees to pick up the torn fragments of a small sheet of paper, while a broom will do quite as well to take care of the crumpled bits. There come unpleasant events, even tragedies, that people in general may not avoid. But every one has a hand in keeping the city clean, and few there are who cannot look back and remember a time when they have not been guilty of throwing away some bits of paper instead of waiting until a box for refuse was found where the paper could be deposited with no de- struction of the cleanliness of the street. It is a little thing—one bit of paper.
