Committee Quizzes Radicals of Pedagogues’ Union NEW YORK. —The School Teachers' union is the latest organization to receive the attention of the attorney general in connection with the Lusk legislative investigation into bolshevism, begun more than four months ago.

Deputy Attorney General Berger and Archibald E. Stevenson, counsel for the Lusk Committee, have for a month held hearings under the peace and safety act of 1917, passed to enable the state to deal with pro-Germans. These hearings had as an object uncovering the extent to which bolshevism has spread in unions which were designated as “radical” at open hearings of the Lusk committee. While, the teachers’ union was not so desig-

nated, it becaln'e known that one of its officers was among those examined. The examination is said to have disclosed that the union contains many teachers of socialistic tendencies, and an attempt is being made to learn to_what extent the members are trying to carry bolshovlst-deaehings into their classrooms. The subpoenas calling the officers of each labor organization have required the production-of all records relating to the membership and the personnel of the officers. Tire examinations aroused protest in socialist circles, whose leaders assert they are contrary to the spirit of the law. “This is a fine, style of inquisition,” said S. John Block, attorney for the Rand School of Social Science, “and is without the slightest justification. We believe the law under which the inquiry is held is unconstitutional, but rather than take the trouble of going to court, we have told the union leaders to appear and give such harmless information as is asked. As a matter of fact, there is nothing those who have been summoned have any desire to conceal from the public.’

Murder Inquiry Methods in Chicago Called Joke CHICAGO.— “The present methods of conducting murder investigations are neither more nor less than a joke,” declared Coroner’s Physician Joseph Springer. The physician's remarks followed a conference with Chief of

der !’ they exclaim. Then they grab the body and hurry it to an undertaking establishment. There they strip off the clothes and phone for the coroner. “The result? There are none in many cases, which accounts in part for Chicago’s 40 unsolved murder cases. The location of the body, the location of the gun, the blood and the finger and footprints, all of which are essentials in the solution of the murder, are often made mysteries by the present methods of investigation.” Chief Mooney and Doctor Springer have practically agreed on their recommendations to Chief Garrity. The squad, if the chief approves of it, will be made up of two or three picked detectives, an assistant state’s attorney, the commanding officer of the district in which the murder was committed, a finger-print expert, and a physician from the coroner’s office. Despite special motor squads and the dispatching of detectives to the scenes of murders, surroundings which would have proved good evidence have been so changed by the time experts arrive that only poor clues remain for them to direct their attention. Chicago the past year has experienced its record for unsolved murders, of which it probably has had more than any other city. Many have been lost sight of because of apparent poor system of the police department, and the

John made his' entrance into the Mish store through a skylight, after climbing the fire escape of arfondjoining building. He slid through a small opening, ran merrily down the stairs, and helped himself to $2.34 from the cash drawer, after fillhug' his pockets with cigarettes. And just then in walked Mish, on a trip to his store, and saw John flop suddenly behind a counter. “I don’t smoke, I took the cigarettes for some big fellows,” said John.

Detectives James Mooney, who has been ordered by Chief Garrity to present a plan for a homicide squad to investigate all Chicago murders. After declaring himself heartily in favor of the homicide-squad-plan, the physician, who has had 24 years’ experience in the coroner’s office, discussed police methods. “What happens John Jones is murdered?” he asked. “The police are called, the wagon men arrive on the scene. ‘Oh, there’s been a mur-

GOOD AND BAD LUCK SIGNS

Practically Every Country Has Its Favorite Superstitions Dealing With Marriage Ceremony. Did you know that the expression, “tying the knot,” grew out of a superstition? Among the Babylonians one part of the marriage ceremony was to take a thread from the garment of the bride ami one from the groom and tie them together into a knot. Russia has curious superstitions. One ludicrous one is that the bride and groom race rapidly down the aisle as soon as the bridal procession enters the church. Whoever places a foot on the doth in front of the altar first will be master in the. household. In Spain it was considered a good omen to tie around the necks of the bride and groom a silk sash fringed wiih gold* while they knelt before the altar, thus binding their love the stronger. In France it is held to be unlucky to allow a person older than the bride toenterthechureh<loorfirst. —And there are other superstitions from many countries. It is lucky for a couple to run out of church hand in hand. The bpide and bridegroom must not look about or recognize any one on going up the church aisle, for one who does it will go elsewhere for love in a short time. - j The one of the betrothed pair who gets up first from the altar will always in after life be the one to get up first in the house. It is a sign of bad luck and separation if a woman signs her maiden name instead of her new married name on the church register when she marries. It is good luck to the couple if a pigeon alights on the church as a couple enters it to be married. If the official clergyman has trouble to find bis glasses it is a sign that one of the two before him will not bear inspection. If the ■officiating clergyman makes a mistake some one is present who Is opposed to the match. It is bad luck to have a minister refuse to perform the ceremony on any excuse. ■ _ ~ If the pastor drops the prayer book while rea'ding the service the couple will be blessed with twins. It is a had omen for the wedded couple if a person in mourning passes the open church door while the ceremonw is being performed. It is lucky to marry in a ruined church.

Making Medals in Millions.

The 1914 star recipients can be numbered in tens of thousands; those who wear ribbon of the 1915 star are reckoned by hundreds of thousands, and in millions must the men and women he counted who will be entitled to the general service medal for the war, 1914-1918, says an English ex ; change. On the. other hand, in 1893 medals were awarded for special campaigns, in which the were numbered in tens. Three little, scraps occurred in West Africa during that year and the general service .medal with a special clasp was awarded for each little brush. * The Lake Nyassa clasp and medal issue was made to only 25 men for services in Nyassaland. Thirty-four only received the medal with the Liwondi clasp, given for the engagement with the Chief Liwondi. Forty were given the Juba River clasp and medal, as members of the naval brigade that went as volunteers to the rescue of two Englishmen held paptive by the Somalis. , Of course, in Wellington’s days, until Waterloo, only the chief and commanders were given medals.

An Arrest That Failed.

The moon -had not yet come-up and the motorcycle patrolman, who was on the lookout for spooned, now and then would turn a searchlight into the bushes of the lonely road. Suddenly ahead of him he saw a small sedan, and as it passed under a street lamp h? saw curly head resting comfortably on a dark shoulder, while the arm of this same dark shoulder' was thrown protectinglv around the ctfflyrh ended one's neck. Oho sMWmMWMF for the Observant patrolman, and he started his motorcycle forward until he arrived alongside. “You are under arrest for spooning." he said gruffly, and then he looked inside. What he saw made him mumble a hasty “beg pardon,” and tear off down the street at a great pace. The curly head belonged to a s*all child asleep on her mother’s shoulder. —Kansas City Star.. (
