Crime and Auto Killings in New York. New York papers are pleased that the crime record in that city for the first six months of the year shows a decrease. They compare 94 murders in the first six months of 1916 with 116 in the same period last year. , Motor-killings were reduced from 303 in the first half of 1915 to 231 in the first half of 1916. There were 9,575 burglaries and other major thefts against 11,931 in the first half of 1915. Arrests on misdemeanor charges were 48,681 as compared with 55,599 for the first half of 1915. Almost sixteen murders a month is a pretty bad record even if it does show a decrease in

comparifcn with the previous year. One murder in two days is a high average. -The figures prove that criminals still ply their trade with success in the largest city of the United States. We wonder how many of the 94 murderers were arrested and how many of those arrested were convicted of their crimes. Americans are still too apathetic toward the problem of crime. Rigorous prosecution of criminals, the abandonment of mawkish sentiment toward the guilty ones would' do much toward breaking up the loose regard some men entertain for the lives of others. Life is the most precious thing on earth. It is something that cannot be restored. Reparation may be made for the theft of a man's money or gems, but you cannot restore his life if you have murdered him. :

DURING YEAR

Seeking Recreation. Thomas A. Edison, the inventor ; H. S. Firestone, tire manufacturer ; Henry Ford, automobile manufacturer, and John Burroughs, naturalist, form a party that is seeking an outing in the Adirondacks. The combination is one that provokes discussion. If Edison and Ford believe they can leave their business interests for four weeks to seek recreation in the woods and along the lakes, it is a sure bet that all of us would do well to leave our work for a week or two and

refresh mind and body in the country. We cannot take along Burroughs to entertain us and tell us about the trees, animals and flowers, but we can derive entertainment by studying them ourselves. Press dispatches say the men are going to get close to and study nature.

He vanished Into the back room with the glass, and before he returned, the disconsolate Individual had slunk out, leaving Morrow la sole possession. If this place was indeed the rendezvous of the gang of minor criminals with which Charley Pennold had allied himself, he had obviously come it the wrong time to obtain any information concerning him, unless the voluable bartender could be made to talk, and that would be a difficult matter. "Look here!" Morrow decided on a bold move, as the bartender reappeared and placed a bottle of whiskey between them. He leaned forward, after a quick, furtive glance about him, and spoko rapidly, with a disarming air of confidential frankness. "I'm In an awful hole. I'm new at this game, and I got to find a fell I never saw, and find him quick. He hangs out here, and the big guy sent me for him." - "What big guy?" The cordiality faded from the bartender's ruddy countenance and he stepped back significantly. "You know Pad!" Morrow shot bi:ck on a desperate bluff. "The fellow's name's Charley Pennold, and Pad wants him right away. He didn't tell me to ask you about him, but he made it pretty plain to me that he'd got to get him." "Say!" The bartender approached cautiously. He rested one hand upon the counter, keeping the other well below it, but Morrow did not flinch. "What's your lay?" "Anything there's coin In," returned the operative, with a knowing leer. "Anything from planting divorce evidence to shoving the queer. I've been working for a pal of Pad's , in St. Louis for three or four years that's why I'm strange around here. Pad's up In the air about something, and wants this Charley-boy right away, and be tells me to look here for him and not come back without him, see? This is on the level. If you know where he is, be a good fellow and come across, will you?" The bartender felt under the coun

ter for the shelf, and then raised

his hand, empty, toward the bottle.

"I guess you're all right," he re

marked. "Anyway, I'll take a chance

What's your moniker?"

"Guy the Blinker," returned Mor

row promptly. Guess you ve heard of me all right. I pulled off but I haven't got time to chin now. I got to find this boy if I want to keep in

with Pad, and there's coin in It."

"Sure there is," the bartender af

firmed. "But he's a queer one the

big guy, as you call him. What a his

game? Why, only this morning, he tipped Charley off to beat It, and

Charley did. Maybe he thinks . the

kid's double-crossed him."

Morrow's heart leaped In sudden

excitement at this astounding news,

but he controlled himself, and replied nonchalantly: "Search me. He told me I'd find this Charley-boy here; that's all I know. He isn't talking for publication not Pad." "You bet not!" The bartender nodded. Then he jerked a grimy thumb in the direction of the back room. "Why, the dame In there, cryln' into her absinthe, is Charley's girl. She's a queen straight as they make 'em, if she does work the shops now and then and Charley was fixin to hook up with her next month, preacherfashion, and settle down. Now he gets the office and skips without a word to her, and she's all broke up over it!" The door at the rear opened suddenly, and a girl stood upon the threshold. She was tall and slender, and her face showed traces of positive beauty, although it was bloated and distorted with weeping and dissipation and her big black eyes glittered feverishly. "What's that you're sayln about Charley?" she demanded half-hyeter-icall;-. "He's gone! He's left me! I don't believe Pad gave him the office and if he did, Charley's a fool to beat it! They've got nothin on him it's Pad who's got to save his own skin!" "Shut up Annie!" advised the bartender, not unkindly. "Pad's sent this here feller for him, now!" "Then it was a lie a lie! ' Pad didn't tell him to beat it he's gone on his own. account, gone for good! But I'll find him; I'll"

The girl suddenly burst into a storm of sobs, and, turning, reeled back into the inner room. "'You see!" the bartender observed, confidentially, as the door swung shut behind her. "She thinks he's gone off with another skirt; that's the way with women! I knew Pad had given him the office, though. I got it straight. You're right about Pad bein' up In the air. He must have bitten

off more than he can chew, this time. I heard Reddy Thursby talkin' to Gil Hennessey about it, right where you're standin', not two hours ago. They 're both Pad's men met 'em yet?" Morrow shook his head, not trusting himself to speak, and the loquacoius bartender went on. "It was Reddy brought the word for Charley to skip, and he dropped somethin' about a raid on some plant up in the Bronx. Know anything about it?" To Be Continued.
