New Jersey's "bloomer woman," Mrs.
Susan T. Fowler, is dead at the age of
87. For sixty-nine years she has been
famous for wearing the garmenta which
geve her the sobriquet. She was a com-
panion of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and
Susan B. Anthony in their campaign
for freedorn of women from fashionable
arese restrictionsa*
In the last three months of 1910 the
steam: and electric railways of the Un-
ited States killed 2,880 persons and in-
jured 41,352. Of those jailed 248 met
death in "train accidents" and 3,729
were injured. In "Industrial accidents,"
that is acctdents in which no moving
train or locomotive was coneerned,there
were 107 killed and 20,394 injured.
The United Statea Supreme Court
has affirmed the title of a lada to
her face. A New York statute forbids
the use as an advertisement of a por-
trait of any one without the owner's
consent. The Supreme eourt has held
this law to be constitutional. There
seems to be still some private rights
which are protected against the en-
croachments of United States "liberty."

The feeble rays struck the tawny skin,
the haggard lineaments, the deep-set
eyes sparkling with matinees. It was

Cronkite waited on the landing below
until Merwlith had Adjusted the noose

door ajar; then oven as he drew himself

He raised the box gingerly at arm's

with an awed nod he eallea Slocum to

"Listen," he saia. "I was right. Look."
And he showed how a slit in the cloth

'Don't you seat' he gasped, "He would

again there was a sharp sound and he
quivered for all his pluck. Again he was

tales of how death in its moat savage

Of the doelts. Why didn't Cronkite come?
Ire would be even gladder to get away

At length Cronkite did come up the

For the moment lie steed gazing on Jas.

impotent rage. Then with a Shrug of his
bored shoulders he turned away.
"By to -Morrow, when he has been com-

He picked up the box gingerly.. 13ear-

THE PEAOE PACT.
(Philadelphia Record.)
It looks as though the remarks of
Preeident Taft in favor of tae arbitra-
tion of all international issues, end the
favorable response thereto of air Ed-
ward Grey, of England, would soon re-
sult in an agreerueut between the two
Governments, which we believe Congos
ani Parliameut would not hesitate to
approve, that would make war between
this country and England impossible, awe
the precedent of which would lead, other
nations to enter into like agreements.
