POLITICS HOLDING
CENTRE OF STAGE
. TODAY IN MICHIGAN
Fall Convention of Demo
crats, Republicans and
1 Progressives Assemble to
Make Nominations.
DETROIT, Mich., Sept. 30.-Pdlltlcs held
the centro of the stnga In Michigan today
Tvhen tho fall conventions of the thrco big
political parties Democratic, Republican
and Progressive assembled. The Demo
crats hold their sessions here, the 0. O.
P. forces met In Kalamazoo, white tho
Bull Moosors held forth at Day City.
Knch party was to make Its nomina
tions for tho offices of Secretary of State,
Auditor dencrai, Attorney General, Stato
Treasurer and Stato Land Commissioner,
In addition to selecting new State central
committeemen nnd drafting platforms.
Interest centered In the Democratic con
ventions, where tho lone standing feud
between tho "Wilson-Democrats" nnd tho
"Wood-Shields faction threatened trouble.
Btnto Chairman Shields declared early to
day that the "organization" wing would
be In complete control, although tho "Pro
gressives" promised to mnke a last-ditch
flght for tho seating of their contesting
delegation irom wnyne (Detroit), Cal
houn nnd Delta Counties. Success In this
flght would give them control of tho
convention nnd subsequent control of tho
party organization In Michigan.
There was every indication that the
Republican gathering in Kalamazoo
would be serene and peaceful. The one
chance of a serious clash apparently
rested In the possibility that Chase S.
Osborn, tho nominee for Governor, nnd
the party leaders might not agree on
platform plapks. Osborn several months
ago went on record as favoring tho
recall of judicial decisions, but when
this Issue threatened to stir up Internal
etrlfo In tho party, he announced that
he would mako no effort to dictate his
radical views into 'the party platform.
Contests for plnccs on tho various
party tickets wore comparatively few
nd mostly unimportant.

LOST TEXAS GIRL FOUND
COURT OF APPEALS UPHOLDS
DISMISSAL OF MRS. PEIX0TT0
Teacher Was Absent From Duty to
Give Birth to Child.
ALBANY, Sept. SO. Tho action of tho
New York City Hoard of Education in
dismissing Mrs. Bridget C. Pelxotto be
cause she had absonted herself from
duty ns a teacher to give birth to a
child was upheld yesterday by the Court
of Appeals. Supremo Court Justice Sea
bury had granted a writ of mandamus
for tho reinstatement of Mrs. Pelxotto.
That nction was reversed by tho Appel
late Division. The latter decision Is now
affirmed by the highest court, with Chief
Justice Bartlett and Judge Hogan dis
senting. Mrs. Pelxotto, In January, 1013, gave
notice to tho Board of Education that
he would be absent from duty, with
out asking or receiving formnt leavo of
absence. On April 22, lf)13, charges were
made against her of negloct of duty "In
having been nbsent from duty Blnco Feb
ruary 3, 1913, for tho purposo of bearing
a child."
In the May following now charges wero
presented ngalnst her "for nbsence from
duty without leavo since or about Feb
ruary 3, 1013. These charges said nothing
of child-bearing. The teacher was tried
upon tho charges and dismissed.
On trial of her suit her counsel nrgucd
that nbsence from duty for the reason
specified was not neglect of duty under
section 1003 of tho City Charter, even
though she wns absent without leavo for
almost three months.
The prevailing opinion of the Court of
Appeals says:
"In tho proceedings under review the
Board of Education discharged Its duty
fnlrly, and tho courts cannot by man
damus reverse the conclusions reached,
that no such absence shall bo excused
without approval of the Board of Super
intendents. Her dismissal Is sustained
under subdivision 4, section 44 of the by
laws of the Board of Education nnd nlso
under section 1013 of tho charter."

ing that tho Doctor got the full votes
of their respective precincts. The
portrait of Penroso wns unnoticed.
Larry Eyre, always head and front of
meetings of the County Committee, was

he has ever known to utter on such oc
casions before, pointed to the great vic
tory In store for tho G. O. P. nnd urged
evory member to activity from now until
the election. There was some applause
on his rallying note, but It wasn't . tho
whole-souled order that was onco heard
In tho committee, when Mr. Eyre called

The meeting wns decldedy short In en
thusiasm, nslde from a warm feeling for
Doctor Brumbaugh. Chairman Fred Mnc

Plan to Simplify Life In Fashionable
New York Institution.
NEW YORK. Sept. SOPartly ns an ef
fect of the propaganda begun Inst year
by the Parents' Association, which sought
to simplify the life of children, one of
the most fashionable of the New York
("chools has prepared this year school uni
forms for the children of the wealthy
famlles who patronize the school. This
Is Miss Clmpln's, East 57th street. It Is
not obligatory that tho young women
should buy nnd wear trio uniforms during
school hours, but It Is advised. When
tho school ripens next week, It Is thought
the majority of the pupils will be found
wearing them.
Thero are blouses of two styles to bo
worn with u black cloth skirt. They are
made by a well-known njanufneturer nt
a reasonable price for tho pupils of this
school and will not be sold to any others.
The dress is simple and In good taste
and Is designed on the most hygienic
plans without regard to tho prevailing
fashion In the cut of skirts.
NICKEL, DEVIL'S METAL
Miners so Named Ore Because Old
Nick Seemed in it.
Nickel was first discovered by Cron
stedt In 1751. No use was made of It. as
It wns found only In small amounts. For
a great many years the German miners
called It kupfernlckel, or devil's copper.
It wns believed by those simple folk that
Old Nick, or the devil, made this ore
purposely to bother the miners, as It
looked exactly like copper ore, and yet
no copper could be extracted from It.
Nickel was scarce until a New York
assayer found a quantity of It In a ship
ment of ore from Cannda. He stated Its
value In his report nnd the owner of the
mine prospected for more and found large
quantities of it.
Nickel Is hard, ductile and malleable.
It Is white in color, with a yellowish cast.
It ranks next to Iron and cobalt In mag
netic properties and Is extensively used
for plating purposes, because It will take
a high polish and will not rust. Nickel
ndded to steel makes It harder and
stronger.

INDIAN KNEW GOOD LAND
Told Pioneer Who Befriended Him
of Manitoba District.
Near Brandon, fn Manitoba. Is a won
derful fnrm which has In late years scU
dom netted lens than $10000 a. year. The
etory of how It camo Into Its owner's
hands points a. live moral.
Canada's Northwest was opened to set
tlement by nn net passed In Ottawa In
I6CJ, A. Canadian Government employe,
who shall bo called Smith, had two sons
Just enmo to men's estate. He advised
them to bo Into tho now country as pio
neers. In the spring of 1870 they arrived in
Winnipeg, then n place of some 800 In
habitants, mostly half-breeds. Thero they
outlined and (started west, tacit driving a
"prairie schooner." Ucfmo them stretched
a great plain, with not n soul in sight.
One nlgli, as tho elder Bmlth brother
wns about to leave the camp lire to turn
In, two Indians appeared, in sign lan
guage they naked to bo allowed to cdok
ard sleep b the fire. A wind was blow
ing, with spits of snow. When they had
eaten, tho Indians sniintled bare-backed
to the storm. Mrs, Smith persuaded her
husband to approach them with a fur
robs. He placed It about their shoulders.
They received It In stole silence.
Rut no.t morning tho elder Indian went
up to Bmlth, placed an nrm on his shoul
der and exclaimed: "White man good!"
The Indian wns a runner for the Hudson
Buy Company nnd knew tho Northwest
llko a scholar knows his book. In broken
English he told Smith where to go to get
tho bept land In Canada. Just a little act
of kindness mndo Smith a rich man. But,

GERMANS PLACE
CONFIDENCE IN THE
HOUSE OF KRUPP
Teuton Supremacy Depends
Largely on Superiority of
Armament Works Grew
From Small Forging Plant.
Now In these days when tho great na
tions o.f Kuiopo are arrayed ngalnst Ger
many, tho Teuton places his faith in the
Kaiser, t(ho nrmy, tho navy and Krupp.
In tho Krupp works, because Krupp rifles,
cannon nnd slcgo guns nro the greatest
in the world admittedly; whllo Krupp
nrmor plate protects Oermnny's battle
ships. The house of Krupp, ns a re
cent writer has said, Is a nntlonnl Insti
tution In tlie Fatherland, nnd Its name
Is almost ns revered as that of Hohen
xollcm Itself, Krupp guns and armor
form a ring of steel about tho Father
land which It will roqulrc a miracle, be
lieve the Germans, to pierce.
Tho Ironmasters of Ksscn have ruled n
hundred yeals; and now a uueen and n
queen consort hold sway. The bonds of
tho houses havo been: Fiederlch, found
er (1SS7-IS2iI), Alfred (1M2-S7J, Fredrlch
Alfred (1851-1002), nnd now Ucrthn, wifo
of Krupp von Bohlen und Halbach. And
with tho queen rules Dr. von Bohlen und
Halbach, entitled by order of tho Kaiser
upon his marriage to designate himself
Krupp von Bohlen, thus kcepl' ; nllve
tlie famly name of the great gunmakcrs.
For the lost male of the line left only
daughters, Bertha and Barbara.
"Great oaks from little acorns grow."
So with tho house of Krupp, which had
Its Inception In a small forging plant near
Kssen that nt one time did not have
sulllcfciit business to support It.
The founder of tho line, Frledrlch, who
was born In Kssen, endeavored to mako
cast steel, the secret of which was care
fully guarded In Ungland. And In 1810
he founded a smnll forging plant nenr
Kssen for tho production of cast steel
nfter n process ho nnd evolved. Mint
dies, Btamps for buttons, etc., were
manufactured, but so small wns tho de
mand, the works could not be kept In
operntlon' And, soon nfter 1S20, Krupp
wns obliged to filvo up his house to
occupy n small one-story laborer's cot
tago near his plant. Tho hut In still
preserved In the midst of tho present
gigantic establishment.
THK SKCRKT OF CAST ST1JHL.
Shortly before his death, however, the
llrst of the present-day Kruppi confided
to Ills son, Alfred, the secret of making
cast steel, which tho Intter developed suc
cessfully. Alfred, with the Indomitable
perseverance that captivates the Imnglna
tlmi, continued In the face of moun
tainous difficulties his endeavors to Im
prove the manufnctuio of steel.
Then came the Krupp opportunity tho
gront exhibition at Iondon In 1851. The
obscure Rhenish steelmaker from Ksien
electrified the military universe with a
slx-pounder of flawless cast steel. Slnco
then the German nrmy nnd navy have
bought ZJ.000 Krupp guns. And $0,000
Krupp guns havo been sold in tho InAt
half century to 62 nations throughout tlw
world-fct In Kuropc, 18 In America, six.

But tho Krupps have nover manufnc'?
tiiretl munition nf war for France.
Alfred Krupp's breech-loading rifle Midi
cannon, adopted by the Prussian nrmy in
1SGI, proved their superiority in tho
Frnnco-I'russlan wnr. From then on lha
factory becama world famous tor Itn
manufacture of heavy ordnnnco and
armor pinto.
tinder the next Krupp tho output of
tho gun factory was Increased nnd
diversified by the incorporation of other
enterprises.
And now the Krupp von Bohlens net
only havo the Immense plant nt Easen,
which comprises nn area of 1200 ncrea,
235 of them under one roof, but many
other plants ns well. At Kssen, nnd nt
tho three neighboring 15-mllo long gun
ranges of Mcppen, 39,000 men nro em
ployed. At Krupp collieries In Rhlnelnnd-West-phalla
and Silesia, 1000 minors dig coal
for Krupp brnncli works at Annen nnd
Oruson, where armor plato Is made, and
for Krupp blast furnaces nt Rholn
hnuson, Orulsburg, Nouwled and Engors,
which, between them, keep another 15,
000 pairs of bands busy.
At Kiel 6100 shipwrights build battle
