Exactly what are the principles of the Marconi business code? The World perfectly agrees that Mr. Marconi is a great bene- feetor of humanity. The World begradges no newspaper an exclusive story. The World sees no reason why any telegraph operator, Mar- coni or other, should not from his own experience and by word of mouth furnish a newspaper with such a story. What The World would like is an explanation of the following One of the staff correspondents of The World was a passenger Qaithe Carpathia.

NIP IT IN THE BUD. OME two hundred and fifty young loafers and rowdics were arrested in various sections of Manhatten last Sunday. ‘Their " ages ranged from seventeen to twenty-six. Insulting women, throwing baseballs at the heads of passersby, shouting and swearing in the streets and crap-shooting were eome of the lesser offenses, Four young men—the eldest twenty-four, the youngest twenty— terrorized « restaurant in the Bronx, flourished revolvers and fought with ‘the officers who arrested them. Magistrate House, in the Mor! Court, said in sentencing them: “Something must be donc the ravages of these hoodlums. I am going to do all I to break up this thing. I sentence these young toughs to thirty the workhouse!” He also gave notice that every magistrate would show absolutely no mercy toward young men reaching a danger point in large cities where is the only policy for this sort of thing. bandits and villainous pursuers of women that infest After @ certain age‘ correction is of littlo use. punishment and repression have any effect.

TT" French Railway and Telegraph Companies are trying the : * plan of numbering the hours of the day in their time-tables | (P. from one to twenty-four—one being 1 o’clock in the morn- ipg and twenty-four being the following midnight. This plan does away with, the need of distinguishing between day and night, A. M. or P. M., and eo is supposed to save time and confusion. Italy has had the scheme in force for several years. ' / Just the same the French public is not delighted with it. It may i aged in time. Just now, however, when a Frenchman hurries into\s railway station and asks what time the next train goes to Lyons it makes him peevish to be told it leaves at “seventeen min- ')) wtes past twenty.” By the time he has figured out that that means i ) seventeen minutes past eight the train is likely to have several min- “wtes’ start.’ Also, it will be « long time before Paris gets used to drinking “seventeen o'clock tea” or going to the theatre at “twenty- one of the evening.” » Sarcastic persons deny the need of this reform. “We have never found ourselves in a railway station at midnight expecting to the noon train,” they protest. They ask with scorn: “Why not the names of the months and number the days of the year 1 to 365%” - SCRSbEREEOSOLOSS FECCECooEECCeoeee ceeeeeeecoeoeeete , tract the jaded eyes of city automobil- ty 1912, bs Prose Pu c forld).

Some of the new chiffon taffeta dresses show a surplice drapery over the shoulder that terminates injo a sash at the back, the ends of which are gathered and finshed off\with silk tassels. Sashes will be much worn during the coming season, and for this purpose the wide satin taffeta or double-faced satin ribbons are used. Button and buttonhole trimmings are a marked feature of the new spring models, The buttons are usually cov- ered with the material and the button- holes bound with the same. Flatly stitched folds made from self-materials are also @ favorite trimming. The new trimmings show a decided decrease in strong color effects, the newest {dea being more a matter of harmonizing shades, and the bright Oriental tones of the past season are gradually being superseded by ‘the Tanagea (which 1s a new name for pastel) s.

Ruffles such as were worn in the carly Victorian period are again in vogue, and are seen in all widths, from the narrow frills to the deep flounces. Not only do they form the trimming of skirts, but are also effectively used as bodice garnitures.
