THE HAPLESS HOBO

Doctor With a Plan to Re

Unemployed was languishing, T. Ends
How, whoso 1 oatt wive b.rth to the or
ganization is back In Philadelphia.
Tie has opened tt free employment
ngency In Lowurs' ITnll, Ninth and Spring
Onrden streets, and ho has set the
brotherhood on Its lops, tie expects to
Jmvc it sti ppitis out just like a recover
ing Invalid when he finances the Brothers
a little by minus of a piny called "Hitting

Is a little drama dedicated to the hobo
toy Miss Com P Ham .v. suffragette and
national treasurer of the brotherhood.
It will be presented nt the headquarters
Septtmber sj. Admission wilt be 1" cents.
Dr. How. i.ir he has h come it physician
slnco ho organized the brotherhood ho
jnode3tlj tidiulu-, hoa d while he was In
St. Louis that his Philadelphia brethcrn
wore scattering to the four winds. Ed.
Hoey, the pt.l1tnt. Rot tired of his Job
und went up State as a farm hand, Joseph
-Miller, vlet -:ii ..-ui t. oiu tiny hcitrd that
there was a job as a waiter In New
Yolk just yearn...., to be filled, Three
xnrnls a day went with the Job, to did
Vice President Miller.
Then the rent of the clubrooms at Sixth
nnd Callowhill streets came due. Th'.'
members discreetly drifted away.
DOCTOI1 HOW O.V THE JOG.
Now the brotherhood can reassemble.
Dr. How Is on the Job. If any of the
members want a job Dr. How Is there
to help them.
Dr. How was on the job this morning,
but no one else followed his example.
The labor bureau sot away to a bad
tart although Dr. How says that lflO.Ono
men are clamoring for work and he
wants to be the agent to supply the Jobs.
Dr. How reached Ninth and Vlnu
treets last week. He started a search
for his followers. None was found, but
the doctor sent out his message and fast
and mysteriously it jrnveled. Within an
hour the doctor was shaking hands all
over Franklin Square with fellows in
misery, some of whom he had met be
fore. Dr. How first of all engaged a bed in
the Berkley lodging house, Sixth ami
Callowhill streets. Dr. How's followers
say that a "Hop" at the 15erlt!ey costs
15 cents a nlglu. Dr. How, In more es
thetic, language, stated that he had a nice
clean bet! every night for 15 cents.
It was at the Dewey restaurant. Ninth
treet near Vine, that Doctor How was
found today taking a lute breakfast. He
e't'j it" cents' worth. The breakfast was
oatmeal .'ind milk, two soft-boiled eggs,
J'roncl! frl,-l potatoes, coffee and rolls.
"Very nourishing and quite cheap if
one takes in consideration, however, that
..man can afford ten cents for a break
fast." saiil Doctor How, as he wiped his
lips with a handkerchief. The waiter
Jidd forgotten to furnish a napkin.
MR. BIDDLE CHILLY.
"The boys have F''t of drifted away
from the Brotherhood, l)Ut they will
reassemble," said the president of the
order hopefully. "I started my work
Bund ay by visiting the Bible class of
.Anthony Drexel Biddle. The reception I
got when I started to talk was" and
Doctor How hesitated "one might say
chilly.
"However, I talked on. I maintained
that If the Lord should come to earth
lie would not be received in most of the
Philadelphia churches.
"I wanted to Interest Mr. Biddle in my
work, but ho also seemed a little distant.
He did not promise to visit the new club,
rooms of the Brotherhood."
A friend of Doctor How, who was
listening to the conversation, advised him
not to be discouraged. He was of the
.-opinion that "Tony" Biddle hud only two
Interests In Philadelphia, Jack o'Brln
nnd ills Bible clues, but if be were culti
vated in the right way he might be In
duced to take u glance or two at Doctor
How's hoboes.
"I want tho newspapers to help finding
Jobs for my friends," said Doctor How,
"Now you sae a man offers a position to
n man through the papers. He is tie
relged by applicants. Such occurrences
discourage members of the Brotheihood.
Through tho newspaper onVes we mUht
learn of these ads before they are pub
lished and then our brothers would get
in early start. They would then avoid
th sroat competition for work ou ee."
Another thing that Doc-tor How is In-
te rested In is n municipal lodging house
He has petitioned Councils to appropriate
lis.ono of the proposed U5"0 0'u loan bill
for the purpose. A free lodging house
Is as Important as a City Hall, according
to Doctor How.
Doctor How wos first heard of in Phila
delphia three years aeo when he culled
m. hobo convention. He opeie4 he con
vention with ten weary mn. Three he
ent out with covered tin buckets, which,
when used In the transportation o' beer,
live called "dur-ks." '""of rive Ti'nnte

Half a ton of bulky articles, including
an iiimensy church bell weighing -ti0
pounds, which were stolen from the
Church of the redemption. JOth nnd Mar
ket streets, last Thursday night, hove
disappenied soint where within tho city.
The police, after live dnya of constant
search, said ttuay they had been un
able to recover tlani.
I-as: Thursdav night, one of tho ilit
cool nights of th. fall, when most Thlla
delphlaiw reinalnid off the slieets, s. v
etal. men boldly carted tho articles away
In a wagon. So said the Itev. Albert K
Clay, rector of the church.
The thteVes first lemoved a section of
an ornannntal iron fence on the Market
utrtvt side ot the church iroperty, and
then drove the waKon through tho open
ng nnd into the church yard. They
bioke Into the church and carried away
the h' avy bell, the motor for the organ
and ll brass chandU'rs.
Dot tor Clay, upon discovering tho loss
on Friday morning, immediately notl
lled th' police. "Hut 1 haven't heard
anything yet." he raid today.
I Im explained that the bell formerly
hung In the belfry of tho old frame
chinch that stoud In tin. same spot us
the present new building, which was
Placed under root curly this summer. The
new church, he said, Is soon to have a
r-fifiy, and the bell was to have pealed
forth lis mellow tones from there.
The p.sa of the orgun motor will not
hatititeuit tin. services, as a new electric
motor has Just ben Instulled. The chan
deliers, said Doctor flay, were used in
the basement of the new church, In
which services Wuro conducted from the
time It was built several ycuis ago until
the compute structure Was llnisliud.
The police do not believe that the arti
cles hav been taken out of the eity, as
'he bulky ni.d heavy bell would have
attrutteii too much uttenthn. Efforts to
hit at- t1'. m in 1'hihuli Iphla, however,
have failid.
WORRIED OVER WAR

Letter Telling of Distress of
His Relatives in Hamburg
Found Beside Body of
Suicide.
Brooding over tho fate of relatives on
tho firing lino In both Itusslan nnd Ger
man armies, Max Klnos, proprietor of a
tailor shop In the Florence Hotel, Elev
enth and Glrard streets, committed stil
cldo by Inhaling Illuminating gas this

building at nbout six o'clock this morn
ing, noticed a heavy smell of gas cma
natng from the tailoring establishment,
which Is on the first Moor of tho building.
Ho notified Policeman Jackson, of
tho Klovcnth nnd Winter streets station.
The two, unable to break through the
heavily barred door, got Into the shop

sldo him was a letter. In Gorman, which
he had recently received from relatives
In Hamburg, telling of tho privation and
hoiielessness of many in his Immediate

tion wrought by the wnr throughout Eu
rope and the pnll of darkness that has
settled over all tho people of the Conti
nent. After receipt o this letter, the

! U. OF P. EXPECTS RECORD
ENROLMENT THIS YEAR
Authorities Say War Wont Effect
Registration Next Tuesday.
Tho European war will lmv.i no effect
upon me registration or students nt the
T'nlverslty of Pennsylvania In tho opinion
of the university authorities. While ac
tual registration does not begin until next
Tuesday a record enrolment Is expected.
1-ast year there were 6332 students en
rolled, Including those In tho Wharton
School Extension Branches at Wilkes
Harrc and Scranton. This was an In
crease of more than 1100 students over
the term of 1912, and was the largest
enrolment in the history of the univer
sity. Within the last few days there has been
a steady Incomo of returning students,
back early to work off conditions, to lis
up the fraternity houses and begin un
dergraduate activities. From the num
bers returning and the number of sub
fieshmcn taking entrance examinations,
the indications aie that this year's en
rolment will exceed last year's.
The University last jcar established for
Itself tho reputation of being the most
cosmopolitan university. There was a
total foreign student body of SK, repre
senting 37 different foreign countries. The
I students from Euiopean countries, how
, evor. were in tho minority, although all
I of the warring nations were represented.
I The bulk of tho foreign registration Is
I from Latin-America.
I It was rumored that owing to tho ab
i fence of I'rofessors Paul L'ret and I.eon
Arnal. both of whom are serving in tho
; Fiench army, there would be a decided
falling off In the entnlment of the Archl
, tcctural School. Professor Cret, due to
his undisputed position as one of
I America's foremost deslgneis and his
eminenco as a teacher, has attracted
1 many young architects to the University
i School.

Government In co-operating with the
National Trade Council. The chairman of
the committee had not been picked, ho
etild, nor did he know when It would
meet to organize.
PROSPECTS IN STEEL TRADE.
Coincident with tho news of tho fore,
going plans tiulto a stir was created
mong Eastern steel men by inquiries for
steel for export and tho leallzatlou that
the Pacific coast Is buying tho domestic
production. Heretofore structural ma
terial for San Francisco was brought
across tho Pacific but thu war has halted
this and the supply Is now being taken
from United States mills.
So far the foreign Inquiries hrivtt not
devi loped Into anything sutllciently tan
gible to he called a demand, but never
theless they ate looked upon by steel men
us h'ghly encouraging. A decreueo Is
shown in sales for September so far as
compared to the last half of August, but
It is believed there will ho a gain In the
remainder of tho month that will put the
output ahead of August.
Interest also has been awakened in
pig iron by the foreign inquiries, but t
Is btlieved there will bo no activity in
this lino untl t.Ucl shows Improvement.
A furnace man gave it os IiI.h opinion that
llliel llOHlieeio ui iiriiii' m "1 .1 ttiiiei

MISS CATHERINE CRUCIO
Miss Crucio fell three stories from
the roof of her home, 1932 South
Eighth street. Her only injury, to
the amazement of physicians, was a
broken leg.
BROKEN LEG ONLY HURT
IN THREE-STORY FALL
Beauty of Italian Colony Was Hang
ing Clothes on Roof.
A fall of three stories from tho root
of her homo today resulted only In a
broken leg to Miss Catherine Crucio, 18
yeura old, 10.12 South Eighth street, a
beauty of tho Itallun colony. She wns
hanging clothing to dry when a railing
at the edge ot tho roof gave way.
Miss Cruclo's brother, John, heard her
cry as she fell to tho ground. He rushed
from tho houso and found his sister un
conscious nnd bleeding In tho yard. With
a friend ho carried her to tho Seventh
and Carpenter streets pollco station.
From hero shn wns taken to tho Pennsyl
vania Hospital.
Physicians regarded It as miraculous
thnt Miss Crucio wns not killed by her
fall and that her only injury was a
brokon log. She was leaning against the
rail, with her hands stretched to a
clothesline above her head, when tho
woodwork snapped.
The girl Ind volunteered to hang tho
clothing for her mother.

ANCIENT TABLETS
LOCATE ANEW THE
GARDEN OF EDEN
Man's First Home Was on
Island in Persian Gulf,
According to Translation
by Doctor Langdon.
The Garden of Eden, homo of Auanj
and Eve, wns situated on tho Island ot
Dllltm In tho Quit of Persia Instead ot
Mcssopotnmla, In the valley ot tho Tigris
and tho Euphrates, according to tho rove
latlona In Nippur tablets mado by Dr.
Stephen Langdon, ot JcsUs College, Ox.
ford. His translation has Just been re
ceived by tho University of Pennsylva.
nla and Is published below for tho nrst
time.
Tho discovery will prove of groat In.
torcst to theologians, biblical scholars
and Assyrlologlsts and probably will re
sult In a world-wldo controversy which
may causo a complete revision o tha
Rook of Genesis.
According to Dr. Langdon's translation,
Tho Creation, tho Flood and tlio Fall oC
Man are found In his newly discovered
tablets 1300 years boforo tho time ot
Moses and 1000 years boforo tho days of
Ezra, who Is believed to be tho compiler
of most of tho Old Testament as we now
hnvo It.
WOMAN' DIDN'T AID MAN'S FALL
Tho part played by womnn In the fall
of man is missing entirely from the nar.
rntlvo of tho tablets. Tlio tablets also
contradict tho story of tho -creation and
delugo as told In tho Hook of Genesis.
Tho facts disclosed In tho translation
of Dr. Langdon antcdato In their results
all Hebraic llteraturo by more than 100)
years. Tho original text of tho tablets,
according to Dr. Langdon, was written
by a priest of tho town of Nippur, In
tho valley of tho Euphrates, more than
400 years before Abraham and moro than
1300 years previous to tho departure of
the children of Israel from Egypt.
Dr. Langdon makes the following com
ment on tho translation:
'Iho tablet which contains this re.
mnrkablo account of tho early Sumeriau
theology, concerning tho origins ot human
culture, has been almost completely re
stored by tlfy. skilful museum authori
ties. We havo hero a finely written six
column tablet of nbout 210 lines, most of
which are entirely intact. Written In
liturgical stylo the composition deferves
tho rank of an epic, for it handles the
most profound problems which concern
humanity. It begins by describing tho
land of primeval bliss, which It locutes at
Dllmun, an island in the Persian Gulf,
and probably connected with tho main
land in prehistoric times. In this pnradlso
dwelt mankind, whom Nintud, tho crea
tress, with the help of Entll, had created.
In what way Is not said, but the verb em
ployed in one passage suggests a fashion
ing with the hands of some sort. From
other passages we might Infer that men
wero born as the natural offspring ot
Nintud, anil Entil. tho earth god, but
Semitic tradition as we have it In Baby.
Ionian legends anil great historians, rep
resents man as fashioned by the Gods.
ANC.RV WATER GOD SENDS FLOOD.
"In Paradise Eukl, the water god and
lord of all wisdom, ruled over mankind
with his wire. After a long period Enltl
became dissatisfied with mankind bo
causo ho dltl not come unto hlin, which
I take It to moan that man did not render
unto tho gotls tho homago due. For this
leason Enltl sends the Hood, and frail
men dissolve llko tallow In the deluge,
but the King ot Dllmun and certain
pious ones are summoned to the shores
of tho river by Nintud. They embark on
a ship. After the deluge the King ii
called T.igtug, tho divine, a name which
Im most nrnhablv rendered into .Semitic
by Nuhii (God's wrath Is appeased), and
thin Tagtug lives in a garden, is himself
it gardener, anil tho wlso L'nkl revealed
unto him wisdom. The Greek historians,
too, piesorved this story in the legend of
Oannea, who rosn from tho Persian Gulf
to teach men wisdom In primeval times,
antl so Tagtug, ns in tho Hebrew story ot
Noah, plants a garden, names the trees
antl plants and is permitted to eat of all
but tho Cassia (apple) tice.
"Tho Cassia In Bumerlan documents IS
tho herb of healing, as well as In Semitic
and Greek medicine. The legends in re
gard to it probably told of Its being th
plant which bestowed absolute Immortal
ity. Of this plant Tagtug was not to eat,
for thereby he would attain iternal life.
Mankind until this time possessed ox
tremo longevity, but not Immortality.
Timing, however, on his own initiatlva
takes and eats. He Is cursed by Nlntua
nnd becomes a prev to disease and ot-l
nary mortality. Then In the original
Sumorlan story Noah, the survivor of tlia
Hood, Is the one who eats from the tree
of life. No womnn Is concerned m this
disobedience, which resulted in our losJ
of perfect lualtli and countless y.ais
