CHICAGO, June 10.-—Not a birth has been reported among the members of the Chicago chapter of the Theosophi- | | cal Society within three years. This | statement is made by Mrs. J. M. Hen- derson, who has been a2 member of the cult for that length of time and who | claims she knows every one of the 400, men and women wno compose the local branch. She does not say the members are childless. She says many were par- ents when they accepted the tenets of the cult, but the stork immediately cut them off its visiting lst and has never | seen fit to reinstate them. This same woman is authority for the statement that the members are not only violently opposed to the anti- race-suicide teachings of President Roosevelt, but regard his words as both impertinent and unoglled for. “Fewer births and better children” is the motto of the society, according to this woman. This remarkable state of affairs was revealed because of the expulsion of Charles. W.

CHICAGO, June 10.—The Southside Elevated Railway Company yesterday of its own volition placarded a new wage scale for its men. The wages, to 8o into effect at once, are the highest paid to electrical operators in the world. President Leslie Carter was entreated, it is said, by the managers of the other elevated roads to post- pone the announcement until agree- ments with the union had beel signed by their respective companies. ‘The action of the South Side manage- ment was with the object of preventing the organization of its employes by the union and if high wages and good treatment can avail to hinder such consummation they will be forthcom- ing. The raise placarded yesterday means an increase of about $1.50 weekly in the wages of first-clas motormen, while other advances are given all along the line. The advance of 2 cents an hour to first-class motormen means that the company recognizes that they are the prime essential, to be fastened to the railway with hooks of steel.
