And he took occasion to make . D a lighting remark about a very beautiful and very powerful woman--in fact, perhaps the most influential woman at the moment fa Europe. ‘ The Prussian woman-hater’s idle speech led to rather important re sults, among which were the loss of about @ million lives, the future found- ing of the German and British Empires and the changing of America’s whole career. A good harvest to spring from the Prussian King’s surly epigram: ‘France 4s ruled by Loule XV., and Louis XV. ts ruled by a worthless tcoman. The “worthless woman" was Mme. de Pompadour. And Frederick® use of the term “worth! as applied to such a person as herself, was Grons flattery, But somehow she did not choone to regard it #0.

Does he want to be forced to fight a Tammany insurance clique out for monopoly? Does he want to feel that contractors, real estate Proprictors | and city officials who deal with courts where Tammany judges preside | are being prodded to place their insurance and bonding business with Tammany men? Does he want to waste the beat part of his efforts in a losing struggle with the tightening hold of a Tammany insurance trust? The Citizens’ Municipal Committee has pointed ovt to insurance men that the Tammany circle in the ineurance and bonding business already includes a nephew of Murphy, a brother of Surrogate Cohalan, four Tammany district leaders and e plentifvl sprinkling of up-State Tammany officials. Does the independent insurance man want to find himself up against this areuy? Not if he knows it. ey According to Sulzer, Ryan's $10,000 went to Murphy under the escort of ihe State Commissioner of the Department of Efficiency and Economy.

A golden future of empire seemed to stretch before | the French with the swift development of their Bindu and American possessions. It remained for Frederick the Great to ruin, by the speaking of one sentence, that whole future. France and Prussia were allies. Together they had invaded Austria. Prusste was then & little State whose chief claim to prominence in the swarm of similar Uttle German States, which made up what Is the present German Empire, was the genius Of her King. And both Prussia and Frederick himself had profited vaotly by the alliance with mighty France when Austria had sought to absers | to itself the “balance of power” in Germany. Now Mme, de Pompadour, in a flaming rage at Frederick's inevit, used every atom of her strange power over Louls to persuade him to break the Franco-Prus- gan alliance. succeeded. Urged on by her, the French King broke with Frederick and himself with Austria againet Prussia, Saxony and Russia, following Lou! example, joined the anti-Prussion alli- ance, For a time it looked as though Prussia 8 going to be wiped out of existence. But England, through hatred of France, formed an alliance with Prussta. And the famous Seven Years’ War was on. It lasted from 176 to 1768 Nearly all of Europe was drawn into the squabble, France began by capturing Minorca and thrashing an English fleet. Then the tide of war ehifted against the French. Frederick, after varying victories and deteats, came out of the conflict much stronger than he had entered {t, having lifted Prussia from a minor State to one of the great powers of Europe and block- the rest of the German States. The fret atep toward Frederick wae decidedly the gainer in the results of his apeer at Mme. de Pompadour, But France lost infinitely more than Freé- erick gained. ‘The Wreck of a India, left unprotected by the French, fell prey to Mighty Power. ‘the British, who have never since loosened thetr hold on it, English troops and colonial militiamen tore Can- ada free from France's grip, Louls lacking the fore sight, the money and the men for its proper defense. Englang@ thus took ever France's former supremacy in the New World and in the far East, ‘When peace was at last declared France wes impoverished, stripped of tte richest colonies and deprived of her former boundless prestige emong European powers.

Such is the ruling of Supreme Court Justice Cohalan in a case in which the victim of an accident caused by a careless chauffeur while using his employer’s cat sued the owner for damages. Then a man who owns a powerful machine, capable, when mis- handled, of killing and crippling any number of men, women and children in the public streets, need not worry about how many people it slaughters or maims on wild “joy rides” taken with or without bis knowledge. He is not bound to concern himself with any murder his car may do when he is not personally present. He can be as careless and indifferent as he likes as to what is done with his car when he is not using it, sure that he can alweys take refuge behind the garage keeper or the chauffeur. The public is at the mercy of irresponsible drivers and mechanics. It has no redress save from them. iz Is this safety? ——— + -—___—_ i sions were answers, how convinced we could be! 2+ OR IS THE SUBWAY PERFECT? il AAAAAASIAAAAAAAPBABDAADAABAAAAAAADS Y Mr. Jarr Finds He Can Be Popular For the Insignificant Sum of $5| Cause for Anger. eae narreay Henry 1. do when be was tickied!"—Marpere FIAAAAAAAAAIBABI BAAD BIAS AA AAA BAB AD | AE WILKING yes cee the oxalating pelat | Bases. ‘when bis scighbor met Bim on the strest.
