A CORPORATION'S SWEET CHARITY. One doesn't look for the delicate tender touch of charity in the dealings of the great business corporation; yet there is a bit of news ki the Electrical World which catches one's eye. It seems that down in Kentucky where it is hotter even than here the electric company of a certain city was appealed to for an electric fan in the bed room of c poor sick woman, says the Jollet Herald. The company promptly agreed to furnish the fan without cost and then "made good" when it was found necessary to string wires for a couple of blocks to reach the fan. Other cases were called to the company's attention and in each a fan was furnished free together with the current and the company finally
adopted a general policy of bo helping the needy sick. , Now the policy has been spread to the entire service of the Kentucky Utilities Company, the local manager
in each town being authorized to ex tend the free service on the certifi cate from a physician that It Is needed and that the patient Is un able to pay. It Is a good and generous move ment and should score a big white mark among the black ones usually set down for public service corporations. A BAG TIME LIFE. A heartbroken Chicago woman suing for $25,000 for breach of promise says: "I met him at his first wife's funeral and a week later he proposed to me. I well remember the day. I was sitting on his lap." Poor girl! This recalls the story of the blush ing widow who upon listening to a proposal made by the undertaker who was laying out the remains of her third husband, told him that she was in no hurry as she expected an offer at the cemetery which looked good to her. HE WAS GRATEFUL. How much sweeter life would be and how much more It would be worth living If we could all take our troubles as philosophically as the author of the following card cf thanks which appeared recently In a Kansas city paper: "I wish to thank tho city authorities for quarantining my family for three weeks recently because one of them had the smallpox. During that time my wife caught up with her sewing, we had three square meals a day and no one came In. We enjoyed three weeks of good night's sleep and best of all, a cousin with four children had arranged to visit us, but saw the smallpox sign on the door and left town so scared that hse will not come back again. So for these and other blessings we are very thankful for the quarantine." HUMANITY AND AUTOMOBILE. Many harsh things are said about autonjobllists and many persons are prone to place all owners and drivers in the same class. As a matter of fact, the majority of automobile owners are compelled to suffer for the sins and omisions of the small minority. Numerous accidents, especially those where the autoists have fled without . stopping even to render assistance, have caused a great many to put automobiliets generally In a very undesirable category. It is indeed most refreshing to call to mind a specific Instance that tends to show the real automobillsts, and what we believe to be the type of the majority of autoists not the reckless joy rider, who runs over and plows through every thing without any feeling o fresponsIMIity, but the kindly man who drives an automo bile with a deep feeling of responsibility, Is always looking out to avoid accidents and who feels deeply affected when his machine figures in some unavoidable and unfortunate accident. We believe this is the prevailing type of automobillst, although a majority of our readers may be disposed to take him as tha exponent of the very weak minority. We believe that the humane drivers, the man who deeply feel their responsibility and who are ready to lend any and every assistance to vic tims, even though they may not have been at fault, are in the majority says the South Chicago Calumet. Such a man is Albert Gregory of Gary, an automobillst whom we all must admire and whose attitude Thursday will go a long ways towards setting aside feeling against automobile owners generally. Mr. Gregory's car struck two persons who had been thrown off their motorcycle directly in front of his machine. No feat in drivin? and no modern mechanism could have brought the machine to a stop in time to prevent the accident. Try, though he did, Mr. Gregory could not prevent hitting the prostrate riders. He stopped Immediately picked up his two victims and rushed them to a hospital, where he volunteered to pay all expenses. Several times during the night he telephoned the hospital an$ today wrote a letter to the police explaining the accident in detail. Thursday afternoon after the accident, when he was taking the in jured to the South Shore, hospital, he hailed the first policeman he saw and gave htm a detailed report of the affair, together with his name and address. NEW OHIO LIBEL LAW.

Jim Cantrell, Mrs. Hawkins and her baby. After the most sensational trial in Georgia, Jim and Bartow Cantrell, of Gainesville, have been sentenced to hang on September 6 for the murder of Arthur Hawkins, and Mrs. Arthur Hawkins has been sentenced to a life term in jail. Realizing that she must give up her husband or her; affinity, Mrs. Hawkins reached the conclusion that her husband, being a religious man, was ready to die so she plotted his death with Jim Cantrell, her lover, and Bartow Cantrell. Hawkins was shot from ambush.

The newspaper company refusing or falling to print such an article may upon conviction be fined not exceeding $1,000 and the person responsible for such refusal fined not exceeding $500.

Governor Cox, who signed the new law, is proprietor of two Ohio, dailies. IS IT WOMAN'S WORK. Mrs. Anthony Friedman, probation officer in the Children's Court, was beaten into unconsciousness in the hallway of her home by a man whom ehe describes a sehort and stocky. She Is suffering from concussion of the brain and other injuries. For two weeks Mrs. Friedman has received threats that unless she returned a child which was placed in her care sha would be killed. Xew York Dispatch. This comes just as "policewomen" are being appointed in various cities Ruffians who will shoot down policemen will not hesitate to kill women who do their duty. In Chicago ten women are patrol! ing beats. One of these days some fiend will attack or murder one of these women and the world will be horrified. Does it pay to put women on a police force? WHY THEY DON'T PAY. "Interurban lines don't pay; that is, under the present conditions. Their earnings are scarely equal to their operating expenses and depreciation. That is the showing made by reports to the railroad commission of Wisconsin." This Is the statement made by President Mortimer of tho Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light company, vice president of the North American company and a recognized electrical expert In a dozen minor companies. He continued: 1 "It Is true that a few interurban electric railways have proved either paying1 or profitable investments. Such money, as has been made out of them has come throuRh the pale of the f.ecurlties rather than from the operation of the utility" There are two chief reasons why interurban lines are not big dividend earners: 1. Because they originally sought to and continue to give longdistance passenger hauls cheaper than the railroads. 2. Because very few of them pay any attention to freight traffic. It is the hauling of freight that represents the backbone of railway earnings. When the interurban lines recognize their opportunities and facilities for hauling freight they will earn bigger dividends. And when they make freight hauling a. business there should be a reduction in the cost or living. ine lmeruruau the farm and reaches the city door in a way not surpassed by any other means of transportation
A GOOD PLAN. Moving picture films are to be
supplied free to theater owners warning people of the dangers of trespassing on the right of way of the railroad companies. There is no surer or more effective way of reaching a great number of people than though the medium of the "movies" and as there is no class of business more ready or more generous than the theater owners in forwarding any movement for the general good, the films supplied by the railways are sure to be given the widest possible circulation.

This recognition business is getting- to be a pretty touchy question.

Leroy Fay Walls, feet 2. and Mary Elisabeth Tow, 5 feet 1, entered upon tho troubled seas of matrimony via tho County Clerk and the marylng squire, S. C. Irwin. The bride, a comely lass of eighteen summers, sustained tho ordeal with no sign of nervousness, never missing a stroke of the spearmint, except ta show her dexterity of the elusive wax, when she shifted said Wrlgley and said "Yes", all In one breath. ; The groom, whose going! away costume consisted of high water trousers and passionate sox, said his part of the program with equal unconcern and nonchanantly tossed the squire j a silver dollar to show that he realized tho ceremony to be worth all It cost. The bridal party was accompanied by a lurgff party of the couples' friends, who j wished the newly weds Joy and bliss in hearty handshakes and further demonstrated their well wishes in an osculary exchange which continued all tha" way down stairs. SAID thi if they bad "assurance of honest primaries and elections that trouble would subside in Mexico at once.
