Washington, Sept. 24. Tne trouble In the ranks of the grand old re Dubllcan party are not confined to

the troubles between the regulars and

insurgents. The regulars are baring troubles between themselves. Their troubles will not come to a bead until the campaign for the control of the next house of representatives is set tied In November. Theirs is a family

row over the management of affairs,

Members of congress, regular republicans, who are drifting into Washington spasmodically these days looking after wants of constituents,

are red hot over the campaign man

agement methods of the republican congressional organisation. They believe that a serious mistake has

the last two years, and that the congressional campaign managers of the regulars will hare to forsake old political campaign methods and adopt

the progressive ways of the Insurg

ents to get supporters and succeed

at the polls.

Publicity Is what the malcontents in the regular republican ranks want

i uvj jHnnt gut mat uc uueue, wuiu-

mlns and the other successful Insurg

ents maintained press agencies and

like former President Roosevelt nev

er allowed their names or ideas to grow cold In the columns of the press.

They want the congressional organisation to go Into publicity business. , Wanted Publicity Bureau.

When the house ways and means

committee, was digging Into facts preparatory to the special session that enacted the much discussed Payne-

Aldrich tariff law, the republican con

gressional leaders were approached

by a number of regulars with a publicity campaign. They asked Chairman McFJnley, Vice President Sherman, who was formerly chairman and It still In power. Speaker Cannon and a few others who make up the machinery, to start a publicity bureau

which should give the republican side

of the tariff bill In the making and

defend the measure from Insurgent

,as well as democratic attacks.

This movement was led by Representative Rodenberg, of Illinois, An

thony of Kansas, Currier of Maine, and others, and they had aiding them

former Representative Jim Watson of

Indiana, a clever politician, and a

man, who as a republican whip of the house, had aided the Cannon

machine In many bad places in which

It had found Itself.

The leaders .refused to go Into the publicity proposition. They told the promoters of the proposition that the

house organisation did not need this

kind of work. When it was Minted

they said It did not matter, that the

republican organisation was so strong that the Insurgents were not bother

Now the republicans who wanted

the organisation to go Into the publicity game are heard In a chorus of "I told you so." They say that unless the congressional committee wakes up and decides to go to the people

of the country through the newspaper

columns with Its Ideas and promises.

and promises fulfilled, there is surely

to be a new makeup of the commit

. tee. whether it is a committee repre

senting the dominant party In the house or a committee representing

. the minority. One Thing Net Shown.

There is one thing that visitors to

Washington never have shown to

them by the departmental guides,

That is the overworked, energetic

women clerks of both the treasury and the war, state and navy buildings.

Persons who are constantly In the ai . . .

Duuoings ana nave occasion to fre

quently traverse tht corridors of

tidier of tht two giant buildings have

to travel In a sigsag course in order to make headway. Especially is this necessary In the afternoons. The reason Is that the corridors are crowded with promenading women

clerks.

It Is the young women employes, not the old ones, who are being lnpaeltated owing to the Idea that old

clerks are not competent, that promenade the corridors. An army officer who had trouble breaking his way ... down a corridor In tht war department tht other day owing to the number of women employee who were 'promenading, suggested that the corridors should be turned Into flower and palm bowers, and that It would bt tver to much more pleasant If tht government would furnish orchestras to nlay daring tht afternoons.

Beatrice Turnbull-Balbwln of Brook-

line, Massachusetts, , declared by her

mother, Mrs. Lillian Ashley Turnbull, to be the granddaughter of E. J.

("Lucky") Baldwin, the California mul

ti-millionaire, who died last year and over whose estate a record-breaking lawsuit threatens just now. Mrs. Turnbull says she married Baldwin

by secret-contract, and lived with him

until she heard rumors 'of his esca

pades with other women. She came east and married Dr. Turnbull, who knew her complete story. Mrs. Turnbull has engaged counsel and will make a strong fight to have Beatrice secure a share of the estate. The law

yers engaged by Mrs. Turnbull have implicit confidence in her story and have agreed to finance the suit.

lantic fleet into the Mediterranean waters this fall. It will be necessary

to recruit at least 15,000 men for the i

service before the sailing of the fleet In November.

Getting the right kind of material

and making good aailors is not an easy task. The department will not

take a majority of those who present

themselves for enlistment

In order to get at the better class

of available material a new scheme is to be shortly Inaugurated. It is the intention of the department to give

exhibitions wherever practicable of a

ships' galley showing how the salor-

man of the navy is fed and just what he is given to eat The initial exhibit will be given In New York City and

from there it will go to Knoxville, Tenn., and then on to the state fair

at Dallas, Texas. The exhibit will

show a complete ship's galley, with

electric range and ovens, potato peelers and all of the electrical contrivances that go to making cooking on a warship sanitary and convenient The exhibit will be in charge of a regular crew and what Is turned out in

the way of roasts, stews, bread, cake,

etc- will be glfen to the visitors.

It is believed that a practical dem

onstration of what the sailorman is

fed, and how the food is prepared will aid the work of the enlisting officers.

(American News Service.) : ' New York, Sept 24. In smaller

cities the population of which in

creases but moderately, it Is com

paratively "easy to provide adequate

school facilities for the children of the citizens. It is different however. In a large city like New York, with its tremendous increase of population. Here the task becomes well nigh her

culean and it is scarcely surprising that the school authorities find themselves unable to keep pace with the city's hothouse growth. Last year the enrollment of school children in New York's public schools was 680, 868 and, owing to a lack of adequate accommodations, 53.7S3 childsen were compelled to be satisfied with halftime. This year the enrollment is estimated at more than 705,000 and it will be necessary to put 57,000 or more children on half-time. An increase of about 24,000. children in one year is no small item,' even for a city

the size and. population of New York. As usual, the opening of the schools of the lower east side was marked by many amusing . incidents and a great deal of confusion. Under the rules parents entering their children, had to submit the children's birth certificates and other papers, referr

ing to vaccination, etc. But some of the east side mothers appeared ; with doctor's bills or gas bills Instead. of the birth certificates and a few in

stances they brought even marriage licenses and peddler's licenses. . The principal of one .of ' the" schools in the most thickly, settled foreign-districts of the lower east , side ' was no little astonished when she saw a Turk bringing to school his little girl, dressed in a bathing suit of brightest hue. The Turk wanted to have his daughter enrolled, but the principal, through an interpreter, informed him, that if ' he wished to have the girl admitted he

would have to have her ' dressed ' in suitable attire. . The Turk went sadly away and did not return. , Life in a municipal jail is not what it Is "cracked up" to be. There has been the general Impression that the civil prisoners, especially those well provided with money lead a rather pleasant and cheerful life In the city's jails, but recent disclosures show that the conditions surrounding .these prisoners are by no means as pleasant as the public was. led to (believe. - The

conditions in the civil section of Raymond street jail, where many divorced

men are imprisoned for failing to pay

alimony, are said to be particularly

bad, reminding one of the gruesome accounts of medieval dungeons. According to the statements : made by some of the members of the "Alimony

Club" confined in that jail, the place

is overrun by rats and the members

of the club were compelled to take

turns standing guard at night to scare away the rodents.

ine guests in tne tuning room or a fashionable hotel In Brooklyn were thrown into a panic the other evening, when a young and fashionably dressed woman, sitting alone at one of the

small tables, suddenly became in

sane. She began to shriek, throwing

the whole room full of diners into confusion. Then she jumped up. upsetting the table and causing havoc to the china and glassware. Several waiters rushed toward the woman, who continued to scream and threatened to become violent but she eluded them and ran into the lobby. Assisted by several women the manager succeeded in quieting the woman and she was removed to the Kings County hospital. The woman had registered

at the hotel under the name of Ellen Messenger the night before, but had no baggage. It is believed that the name given by her is fictitious and her identity is still shrouded In mystery. : .- .: ,The other day a man was run over and killed by a sight-seeing automobile. It was ascertained that his name was Cohen and that he had lived with his family at No. 47 Avenue D.; A telephone message was sent

to the nearest police station with the request' to send a policman to the address mentioned to notify the family of the death of the man. The lieutenant-, who received the message mis

took Avenue D for Avenue B and sent

an' officer to the wrong address. By a strange coincidence a family named Cohen lives in that house and when the officer made his announcement, there was consternation in the Cohen family. Mrs. Cohen, accompanied by her three children, started at once for the -morgue to Identify the body of her husband and one of her rela

tives notified the Russian benevolent

society to which the supposed victim belongs. In a short time the arrange

ments for the funeral were made and a plain coffin sent to the house. On

her way to the morgue Mrs. Cohen

met her husband, alive and well, be

ing on bis way home and wholly unconscious of the fact that he had been reported dead. Later on another policeman was sent to No. 47 Avenue D, where the widow and 15 year old son of the dead man were waiting for the return of the head of the family. , New York is a thoroughly prosaic

city and there is not much room for

romanticism in it . Antonio Martello,

who left sunny Sicily some time ago and emigrated to the great city across

the water, where so many of his couiv

trymen do a thriving business in the fruit-vending or blackmailing line, could sing a song of New York's lack of romanticism, were he not otherwise

engaged breaking rock at the worKhouse. T'is a sad story. Antonio has a pleasing and insinuating tenor voice and. like most of his countrymen, is a born musician. When he still trod the fertile soil of Sicily Antonio was in the habit of strolling through the moon-lit streets of his native village

every night with his guitar and seren

ading the numerous senoritas upon whom he lavished bis affections. In

accordance with this habit he started out with his guitar the other night

serenading some of the women whose,

charms had attracted him. But the prosaic people of New York have no respect for the tender passions of a" Sicilian lover. Complaint was made and a rude policeman arrested the singer and his guitar and took both '

to the. station. Antonio was afterward brought before a magistrate who, being an American, and without poetic feeling, had a strong prejudice against troubadours. 'Antonio, unconscious of

having committed any wrong, admit ted having serenaded toast of the charming Americana la his aaiborv hood and was promptly ttnt to tha -workhouse for twenty days.
