CONVKNT'ON HALL SITH.
It became known that Director Cuoke,
of the Department of Public Works, has
been for some time negotiating for the
purchase of the property at 21st and Race
Btrects, chosen by the Municipal Court
for Its permanent location as a site for
the proposed convention hall.
During the Iteyhurn administration $1.
tVW.CfO was appropriated for ft convention
hall, which business niganlzatlons have
urged to be rentrallv located. That
amount Is available for the project.
Mayor Illankenbur,;. in his letter to
the Select Cnuncllmen opposing the proj
ect of acqulrlnB the site at 21st and Itaee.
streets fur the Municipal Court, asserts
that the plan is vague and indefinite. He
points out that It Is not definitely stated
whether tho land to be taken Is bounded
on tho north by Vine stiw-t or Winter
street, lie also lndhates that the project
outlined by Judge Urown includes acquisi
tion of vlrtuallv an entire dlv block in
stead of the corner of tho block at 21st
and Race streets
The Mayor advocates acquisition of
land adjoining the House of Detention at
much less eost. He asserts that If the
land Is condemned for tho Municipal
Court the responsibility for blocking tho

DISCARDED SUMMER GARB
REAPPEARS AT THE SHOW

Beautiful Weather Delights Visitors
to Outdoor Event,
From Staff Correspondent.
HUYN MAYIt. P.i., Sept. 22.-Anothcr
bright, clear nnd beautiful day greeted
the horse lovers this morning who
thronged to the Hryn Mawr Polo
Ciub to nttend the second day's exhibi
tion of tho Hryn Mawr Horse Show.
Tho inlny spell that the optimistic f.umer
and pessimistic pleasure-seeker had pre
dicted for this week disappointed the
former, but Its failure to arrive Is most
delightful to the latter.
Summer finery discarded a week ngo
has been brought forth, and the smart
u. inn n n costumes that were .fashioned
anticipating this event me remaining nt
home In their closets. Ken man must
have a woid In the fashion notes, since
ho so senslblv disregarded the edict to
lay nsidei his stiaw hat for tho hot derby,
and he Is appearing dally garbed for mid
summer weather.
It Is Interesting to note nt a fashionable
outdoor ovent of this kind the evolution
of tho sweater and to see what was once
a homely convenience transformed Into
a garment of beauty. Coat models of
silk or shetlaiid have added Individuality
by the Introduction of a gay silk aearf
or sash, while tho coloring shows all the
novel shades of the season.
Miss Isabella Wannmaker, who Is
among the prlio winners, wore a par
ticularly pretty sweater of a soft shade
of old rose.
During the morning hours an almost
uniform attire Is selected by the major
ity of the visitors, consisting of white
linen skirt and the sheerest and daintiest
of lingerie blouses, whllu n Panama or
soft hat ot some description shades tho
eyes. The color scheme Introduced with
a tic or girdle Is again carried out In
the wearer's I1U stockings.
Society had a little later to sleep this
morning, as tho opening bugle did not
sound until 10.50. Many were on hand,
however, for the opening hunting class,
tho attendance, however, being mcutly
conllued to the regular local horse show
habitues.
At the. top of tho grandstand, In a
shady corner, an Interesting group was
composed of Mrs. Victor P. Muther, with
her little daughter Kathc-ryn, Mrs. David
Pharp and Mrs. Charles Itandolph riuow
den. Miss Sarah Dobson Plske, after spend
ing the early morning In the paddock,
joined Mr. and Mrs. Samuel D. Kiddle In
tho -tTrandgtand.
There were many to lunch at the club
house The tables were set under huge
Japanese parasols, while the orchestra
pluvcd nearby An Interesting party at
one table Included Mrs. Hurry Wain
Harrison, Mrs. A. J- Antelo Devereuz,
Mrs. Howard H Henry and Mrs. Alex

Friendly Talk to Boys and
Girls Who Risk Their
Lives Thoughtlessly in a
Spirit of Fun or Adventure.
To snvo you from Injury nnd possibly
your lives, tho Home nnd School League,
children, hnvo taken a number of photo
graphs of children in dangeiotis posi
tions. Theso small peoplo may bo playmates
of yours. At any rate, you will see that
many of you hnvo dono the same foolish
things that tho boys In the pictures ato
doing.
Thero Is tho llttlo lad climbing up tho
signal tower. Ills small dog wnnts to
follow him, but can't. He may tamper
with thu signals and tho cngino driver
then will becomo contused and wreck
may follow which may cost many lives,
and many a boy and girl will loso a
father or a mother.
Another plctuto shows two little boys
to Ins to learn how cars are coupled.
Thero la a locomotive nt the other end
of tho train. It will start the cars mov
ing and tho boys will be lucky If they
nro not hurt.
Do you see the boy with his foot fas
tened In the track. If ho had not been
walking on the railroad this would not
have happened. Should a train come
along beforo ho could bo freed this
boy would surely loso his leg nnd per
haps his life. He is only 5 years old, too.
Xovv do you see the two boys stealing
a ride. Terhaps you would not do so
foolish n thing. One. boy has one foot
In tho stirrup and the other on tho Jour
nal box right against tho wheel. The
least Jolt will throw him under tho train.
Tho other hoy is leaning out In such n,
way that he may bo struck by a cur on
the other track. Hoth tho boys may ho
killed for their folly.
All these plctutes ore leal pictures of
boys und girls, and the camera reported
them doing Ju.-t such silly things that a
hoy or girl will do when they have not
been told how wrong It Is.
The league also has a message to the
parents. It Is not told In plcturp, how
ever, but Is In cold lpe, with figures to
substantiate every statement.
The general conception Is that nine
tenths of the poisons killed walking along
the tracks are tramps. Xot 2." per cent,
are tramps. Tho tramp knows the danger
of trexpat-slng upon the railroads and,
although he uses them as his highways,
he Is cautious.
Seventy-live per cent, of the persons
who are run down by trains are chil
dren, artisans, laborers and professional
men, who attempted to Usee r-illreiad prop,
erty as a short cut home or to work. It
is estimated that the productive value
of a human life Is ItS.Oon. As 25 oer cent.
of the deaths are tramps, the value of'
the life of each trespasser Is reduced to
a value of JlO.OOo. The loss of life by
railroad trespass In monetary figures In
productive wealth Is estimated at 3,000,
WO a ear. These ilgures do not show
the burdens that are thrown on society
or tho homes which are mined when a
breadwinner Is taken away.

Death under the wheols of an clevjM
train nt tho COth street atatlon In fi 'l
main, vl ins who nnu several hundred Mr.
sons this morning ended the flnani-M
troubles of John J. Dallas, of 1SU No,tt. ,'

Chestnut streets. Dallas fell beneath lh f
train in sucn a way that both sulcldt
nnd accident theories nro tenable.
Dallas and his wlfo wero on their waj1
to Norrlstown for the second day of ths
equity suit. They wero walking skrei.
along the platform of tho COth street st. ',
Hon of tho elevated. As a westbound.'
train drew Into the station Dallas atepptf
to tho edge of the platform nnd turned '
until his back was to the rails. Thenh.,
toppled over. Two cars passed over h!
body, virtually cutting him In half.
Mrs. Dallas turned Just in time to eta
her husband's body dropping over tkn '
edge of the plntform. Tho next instant
tho train shot past her. She becanm J
hysterical nnd was taken to her horns. I
by witnesses. Tho mutlllated body was i
taken to the Homeopathic Hospital)
morgue.
FALL SEEMED DELIBEitATD.
Men and women who saw Dallas fan i
to his death from tho eastbound plat. J
form say that his fall seemed to hav
been deliberately planned. They dcclars
he gauged the distance carefully bo that
his body would fall directly over the far
track where ho could not escape the
wheels. The heavy train was under
brakes at the time and was slowlns up.
Owing to Its weight tho motorman had
not the slightest chance to prevent ths
killing.
DALLAS FACED TWO CHARGES.
Two different actions were under
way against Dallas, one the equity suit
and the other on criminal charges. Hs
was under a total of J3000 ball on ths
charges of attempting to blow up ths
jewelry oflico where he had been em
ployed, nnd embezzlement. It Is he
lleved that the fear of facing thes
criminal charges led him to take h!j
life. A deslro to soften the blow to his
wlfo Is thought to have made him try
to make his death look like an acci
dent. Judge Aaron I.. Svvartz, nt Norrlstosn,
decided at 10:50 o'clock to continue ths
case against Mr. Dallas to give time for
further action. Counsel for Mr Whits
Intimated that tho hearings would go on,
and that another defendant would be sub
stltuted. The Court was notified by ths
EvENtsa I.kdciek of Dallas' death and
the fact that his body had been taken to
the morguo of tho Homeopnthlc Hospital
It was learned today that Dillas mored
from Ardmore to tho moto modest resi
dent In 62d street to reduco expense! at
the udvice of his counsel, after he hal
declared that ho had no money. He als
sold his automobile. Mr. AVhlto tedlfled
jestetday that Dallas told him ho had
no money, but ho Is said to have carried
$30,000 llfo Insurance, and that he wa
worth tfO.iXO In addition.
Some of the witnesses from this cltj"
were on the train that killed Dallas. Moat
of them continued to Norrlstown after
Unfile was resumed, unaware that ths
man ground to death under the wheell
was Dallas.
The equity case ngalnHt Dallas to re
cover J3O.O0O ho was alleged to have em
beyzled was started last spiing at .Vor
rlstown, but after one day the court ad.
Journed for tho summer. Immediately
after that offers of settlement wero madi
by Dallas and wero rejected as unsatis
