POLICE DRAW LINE Oil FIRING COOKS Chicago Police Told Not to Hunt Trouble After Clara's Fight.

CHICAGO. Oct. 18. Clara Klppe, a cook employed at the realdence of Dr. Edwin J. Kuh at 4330 Drexel avenue hat brought about a new police rule which will dlHComfort Chicago hou Beholder. Hereafter persona who cannot discharge their cooks need not appeal to the police. The latter have decided they have no power in the matter. Dr. Kuh and two policemen strove manfully all day yesterday to discharge Clara. They failed utterly. Just as the shades of night were falling and Dr. Kuh and the policement were retiring vanquished from the scene, Clara discharged herself. i "Miss Kippe." said the doctor, diffidently, "owing-er, ah-to a variety of circumstances it will be necessary-ah it becomes imperative, in fact-ah-that you should no longer continue in my employ. "I suppose," replied Miss Kippe calmly, casting a chilling glance at the doctor's direction, "that you meau that I am canned fired." "Well," said the doctor, "I trust that I am too much of a gentleman to put it in that crude, not to say, undiplomatic fashion." "Don't chew your words when you are talking to me," said Clara sharply. "Now," she went on, "as to your firing anybody, why, that's different. It takes two to mage a firing. Now, I don't intend to be fired. I always fire myself. You just go back and attend to your business, and I'll attend to mine." Dr. Kuh went to the telephone and explained the situation to the police. Patrolman John Gessorde was sent to the Kuh home. "On your way," said Clara, "or I'll bate you with this pot of tomato soup." Gessord went back to the station. Pretty soon Dr. Kuh called up again. Another policeman, this one patrolman Charles Pearl arrived. "What," said Clara, another one? Well, Well! And I suppose you are all swelled up on yourself, thinking you are going to succeed where that other policeman failed. Well, you're not. I fire myself, see. Whenever I want any help I'll send for you.' So policeman Pearl went his way. A little later Clara sent for Dr. Kuh. He came quite submissively. "Doctor," said Clara, "I don't like this place. There are too many policemen around. Good night." STRIPPED THE LOUVRE. Restitution e Werka of Art After Na- , peleen'a Downfall. The Louvre has known a still blacker day than that on which "La Glocondo" was abstracted. This wan Sept. 23. 1815, when formal restitution had to be made of the pictures looted during the conquests of Napoleon. Commissioners attended from fourteen different states. The lion's share was obtained, curiously enough, by the representative of Cassel. who recovered no fewer than 421 pictures. Austria recovered 323, Spain 264, Holland 210 and Prussia 119. Altogether 2,065 pictures were removed, together with a number of statues, bas-reliefs, bronses, wood carvings, cameos and enamels. Sir Walter Scott In his "Life of Napoleon" gives a graphic account of the removal of the masterpieces, which were being frantically copied by enthusiastic students until the last moment before their departure. Thanks to the exertions of Baron Denon, who was then director of the Louvre, a certain number of stolen pictures were retained, among these being the finest example of Paolo Veronese extant, "The Marriage at Cana." The gallery, however, was left with only 270 pictures and remained closed unUl the vacant spaces had been filled, mainly with the works of French artists. Pall Mall Gasette. TRESPASSING IN ENGLAND. If No Damage Is Don Intruders Need Have No Fear. Many timid pedestrians in rural Xngland are frightened away from lnvlUng fields by the noUce "Trespassers Will Be Prosecuted." They need have no fear, says an English exchange. As the law stands any trespasser who does the smallest damage injures a fence, breaks a small branch, etc. can be summoned before a magistrate and fined. But if he does no damage the landlord mast bring an action at law and get an injunction. This costs a lot of money, and unless the trespasser is a man of means the landlord won't bring his action at law. All he can do otherwise Is to ask you to get out. If you go peaceably you . t.-ftnrn an hour later and repeat ttjf .often as you wish. Noth1C7V done beyond asking you to lM:9tin. Bat if you resist then suOciemt force can be used, and if you show fight you may be legally v. knocked down, your legs tied and yonrjaeJf bundled on to the road. ' The landlord may, however, play some tricks on you. He can saw a bridge crossing a stream, so that yon will get a ducking; be can dig a pit for 70a to fall Into, and he can so fix the stile you are likely to cross that you will break it, and then he can hare you up before the magistrate, if you don't commit any damage, howaver, you can trespass to your heart's eonttnt.

MOST EARLHAM'S TREES BE SACRIFICED?

Traction Company Says Yes. Residents on National Road Ask "Why?" Noise the Bane of Existence People Driven Insane by Whistles.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. A resident of the National Road opposite the Karlham campus said the other day that it was understood a trustee of Karlham college had stated that it seemed impossible to prevent the traction company from cutting into the row of trees previously under discussion, and that if they did cut into them, when they erected the new poles for the wires, the trees would be so badly injured that they might as

well be entirely eliminated. In fact , civilized noises anything more irnthai they would he so mutilated they j tating than the rattle of buggy wheels

Who or what the "doo.se" is thj traction company? Who are these super-lords that issue edicts fr'im their 1 emote fastnesses in Indianapolis or wherever they live, who slash round the country willy-nilly, and after uprooting all the trees, hitting up the vegetation, careening like mad down our best streets and refusing to get out of

Whether or not this has gone into effect the writer doesn't know. However it remains that it would be nothing short of a crime to permit a single leaf of this splendid row of maples to be touched.

trees don't have to be cut down. Let the traction company root round and find a way out. "If that row of trees is cut into or down by the traction company," said a leading citizeness, "it will be the fault of Richmond people Richmond men." In Indianapolis a set of women are being interviewed by various munici pal problems and all agree on one; point the deleterious effects of noise. The multiplicity of noises is one of the marks, strangely enough, of what is sometimes termed our "advanced civilization." Noise, however, is more barbaric than civilized. Savages whoop. Some beat on tomtoms. Civilized savages blow whistles, toot horns, bang gongs, take singing lessons, scream at the children, permit steam to isue hissingly from the place where its generated, practice college yells, ra'ttle buggy wheels, play the piano, and do a thousand and 1 one other unnecessary things to set the nerves on edge. Consider the laugh alone. The quality of laugh is the mark of breeding or lack of it. How many people shriek or bellow or howl or giggle or scream. Very few people have naturally a pretty laugh. It is an invaluable possession. A shrill laugh, a hysterical laugh, is one of the noises that drives to in sanity. It has sent people to the di vorce court. An ugly laugh, like a diversity in the sense of humour, has wrecked many a matrimonial combination. Noise is responsible, perhaps, for half the physical and mental ills of civilized humanity. Certain noises will set people in motion for murder or the mad house. A very good man the writer once knew, almost caused dementia by a constant rattling of keys in his pocket. He would walk about from one room to another, eternally rattling these horrible keys, until one wished to cry aloud and smash the furniture. Have you not had every nerve set on edge by the unconscious tapping of a foot on the floor, the tappee sitting near you reading maybe or engaged in some vacuous occupation? Has not the creak of a rocking chair caused you mental torture? Has not the fiendish screech of a factory whistle over on the corner

made you "jump out of your skin'" as i the aying goes? I And why, in the dead of night, do engines miles away or a half mile, j

say screech ana toot and scream satanically? And also why does the infuriating hissing of steam from these same engines carry far on the midnight air and cause you to pound the pillow and say, with the celebrated Mr. Matilini, "demn the railroads'" Is there in the whole repertoire of passing by when you're sitting out on the front steps, or porch, conversing with the neighbors or a casual caller. What is there in the rattle of a buggy wheel that drowns out all other sound and renders conversation impossible? No automobile horn, no sizzling motor-car ever aroused the profane feelings to the pitch of expression that can its humble predecessor in the! field of artificial locomotion. Some cities have ordinances prohibiting locomotives from tooting or blowing their whistles within the city limits. This should be universally a whooping it up. At first you think how charming they are. How nice it is to have such cheerful people around, . ... Later vou find yourself viewing them with murder in your heart, if they would only burst into tears or pick up a chair and tire it at you, how delighted you would be. Monotony is the bane of existence. Mor.otoncus cheerfulness is as wearing as monotonous rilelancholy. These "always smile" people havn't there been times when you to throw things at her and jump up and down and shriek to see if she wouldn't just once look some other way. If the fixed smile wouldn't peel off. However this is rather off the defined course of Noise. Noise is one of the abuses of which society will have to rid itself if it ever expects physical or mental per fection Mad-houses are crowded with the victims of Noise. Sanitariums overflow with those sacrificed on its altars. Until we eliminate this menace to reason we are the slaves of modernity. The Frankenstein of Noise must be throttled else it will destroy its creator. Last year there were 10,300 persons in the United Kingdom with an income of over $25,000 a year. The average of these was $63,105. Many Thousands Suffer From Kidney Trouble Your valuable remedy, Swamp-Root, is the cream of all medicines.

RACE A SHOW PLACE OF WINTER STYLES

i Muffs With Pockets and Entire Gowns Made Out of Valuable Furs. PARIS, Oct. 18. Apart from the ; sporting interest of the Longchamps 1 raoe, which caused thousands of En-; glish people to cross the channel, the j occasion was remarkable for the an- i nual display of feminine winter fashions. There is no Coubt that furs will j play a more important part this sea-; son than for several years. Even old '' habitues of the fasr.ionable race course were impressed by the spec-; tacular display of magnificent furs, I the aggregate, value of which roughly ' estimated by some authorities at over I three million dollars. ; Comclete Fur Costumes. j Throughout the paddock, there was j an unending procession of rich and 1 heavy costumes, in which sable, seal- j skin, ermine, silver fox and black fox ' predominated. Complets costumes of I furs were seen for the first time, I consisting of separate coat and skirt. ! One was a magnificent gown of the thickest and softest ermine, the hem being trimmed with tails. One striking creation, which attracted general attention, was a mantle cloak, made of a combination of sealskin and chiffon, the latter inserted in such a way that the white silk and velvet brocade of the gown worn underneath were plainly visable. Black and White. White satin gowns were generally worn with black furs, white stockings and black shoes. Black and white were the predominating shades, although here and there wide cloaks of colored ratine made a diversion. These cloaks, tailor made and all of the same stuff, were trimmed with costly furs, which strangely contrasted with the seeming roughness of the material. - Fur toques of ermine, sealskin or fox were worn generally, mostly perfectly plain, sometimes trimmed with rich lace or an antique gold or silver buckle. Muffs, simle and elaborate, appear to be much bigger than last season, many of them made with huge pockets in front to replace the reticule. One was made of magnificent silver fox with large pocket, in which a small Pekinese dog nestled comfortably. Come railroads in Germany are equipping their locomotive cabs with cocoa mats to absorb the vibration, which is said to affect the hearing of the members of their crews.
