IN DOUBT ABOUT
ANYTHING? ASK
LEDGER CENTRAL
Ml-equipped Bureau Has
Many Sources From Which
to Obtain Information You
Desire.
Two rani walked Into t.EDOEn Central
the other dav and went un to the Infor
mation tlureau. Tliclr faces wore tho ex-
prcwlon of men who are trying to con
ceal the fact that they are about to per
petrate a practical Joke.
'H'o have heard of your wonderful
prowess In answering nuesllnns." mld
lone of them, "and there la something that
We rthould lll(e very much to Itnow. We
ptrnnt to nml out If there Is any trolley
connection between IMttsDcld. Mobs., and
pWllllantstown Mass., when the trolleys
leave, how long It takes to go from the
one place to the other, what It costs and
what Is the best hotel?"
And then their countenances registered,
to use a 'movie" expression, what might
have been translated as: ."Caught at
last! '
But was the omclal at the bureau the
least bit nonplussed? Did he hem and
haw and say that ho "didn't Just Itnow."
or thai It would take him several days to
obtain the Information? He did not.
instead ho "registered" In hl tm-n nn
: eXproMlon of cheerful alacrity which
, might have been construed to mean:
"Come ngaln, old top, you haven't fool
ed me this time.''
AVIthcut a moment's hesitation ho g'it
out a little booklet, one of tho manv trol
ley gulden with which tho liiirenii lu
equipped, and consulted It.
"Yes," he replied to tho evident aston
ishment of the two Inquirers, "there Is
e, trolley connection between PlttsDeld
and Wllllamstown. The cars leave tho
former placo overy hour on the hnlf
hour. It takes 3 hours and M minutes
to make tho trip ar.d the fare Is SO
cents."
TEST PROVES SUCCESSFUL.
He then went to tin hotel nles and In
the twinkling of an eye returned with
tio Information that the Groylock prob-
ly waB the best hotel thorc.
'You are right." said one of the mcTt,
It Is."
And then they confessed that thev had
Just returned from Wllllamstown. Mass.;
that they had made the trolley trip
.thenco from I'lttsflcld and that coming
!own In tho train they had read some
thing about Ledger Central's peculiar
qualifications for answering all sorts of
questions.
At ho time they did not believe that
iany nowsnnner could maintain a. bureau
(so well equipped that It could give out
'such diverse and compiehcnslve Informa
tion, Tasslng along Chestnut street near
MBroad they decided to go In and put It
to tho test. They left with a profound
Respect for Ledger Central.
This Is but one of tho many little Inc'
'dents that are hann:nlng un there every
'jl Jay. Ledger Central Is there to tell
J Philadelphia and her visitors what they
want to know. If thre s anything you'd
like to know, stop In and ask.

WILSON HONORS HEROIC MAN

Interstate Commerce Commission, award

Greenville, Tex., for saving the life of
Mrs. Sallle Griffin on a railroad at Green

he decided. So he called with all his
might, "Mother; mother! Please go
a little slower. We don't need to
hurry so; Jack Frost isn't chasing us

"Maybe she didn't hear," said the
blackbird.
'.'Surely she must have heard that,"
said Jimmy in a puzzled voice, "but
I thought she'd answer."
"Maybe she heard and meant you to
do as you pleased." said the blackbird,
and that's the reason she didn't say
anything."
Now Jimmy knew just as well as
ypu do that if his mother had heard
him she would have answered; she
always did; but he wanted to stop and
look around so much that he let the
blackbird talk him into believing that
his mother would let him do as he
pleased.
"I'll watch very carefully and when
mother gets almost out of sight, I'll
stop looking around and follow her."
So he and the bjackbird stopped and
explored. And they got so interested
that they forgot to watch Mrs. South
breeze in the distance. She went on
and on and on never guessing that
they were not right behind her.
And when Jimmy and the blackbird
remembered about her she was far,
far out of sightl
Jimmy called and hunted, but he
couldn't nnd her.
"I'll tell you one thing." he said to
the blackbird, "I'll never listen to your
advice again, so there."
"You don't have to." replied the
blackbird saucily. "I can take care of
myself." And he flew away, and left
poor little lost Jimmy all alone.
And ever since that day, the breezes
have disliked the blackbird family and
have considered them very saucy aud
disagreeable

MISS I'AltHAR'H KXPHIUHNCCH.
Miss Korrar hud by far tho most trying
experiences of tho few slnscrs who were
In the war zone when hostilities broke
out. Tho hardships she underwent, as
related by the prima rionno, nffected tho
Bhlps news reporters, hardened lot as
they arc.
Mlrs Farrar pinned down one story re
garding herself with considerable em
phasis that which told of her bolliB
shoved off the Paris sidewalks nnd hooted
nt by ungnllnnt Frenchmen because she
Is supposed to have once been chummy
with tho Crown Prince of Germany.
"Nothing of the soil happened," de
clared Miss Fairar, "for tho slmplo iea
son that 1 have not been In Paris nt all
since weeks bofore the war. This yarn
was nothing but a cheap fake.
"SJeiiously speaking, wo hail a terrible
time getting to Naples. When the war
broke out 1 was In Munich with Mrs.
Newman, a New Yoik lady who went
abroad with mo as a trui cling com
panion. In company with some German
singers we made our way to Amsterdam
as best we could, expecting to take pas
sago for New York on tho steamship
Amsterdam.
"Wc got Into a train nnd for 11 dnys
and nights wo suffered everything that
human beings could nnd still brcHthc.
For hours our train would bo held up on
sidings to allow troops to pass, and again
wo had all the experiences of being or
dered about by soldiers, of showing our
passports, exhibiting our personal belong
ings aud undergoing lack of food nnd
sleep, until finally we arrived where do
you think? Why, light back In Munich
We were In despair, but made a fresh
start nnd eventually reached Naples by
way of Switzerland."
Mme. Itaymondo de Launnols, the Bel
gian contralto, was In despair when the
ship arrived, 'but glad to reach a land of
peace, iter native place is at -Mons, one
of tho cities first bombarded by the Ger
mans. When the war broko out she was In
Paris and her husband waa ordered to
Join the colors. Hearing of the destruc
tion of Mons. she tried to get traco of
her family, but nhe never heard a word of
either her mother, grandmother or two
uncles who were there when tho bIicIIs
began dropping Into the city.
GATTI-CASAZZPS TJU.U.3.
Manager Gattl-Casazza said he was
glad to get back to America, and related
somo of the difficulties he encountered In
collecting the company.
"War Is a terrible thing." he said, "nnd
to try to get an opera company together
under such conditions as prevailed Ih
something that I would not care to under
take again. ICvery country had to be
pleaded with to grant releases and pass
ports and I had to go through Immense
quantities of red tape to convince tho
Italian authorities that It was all right
for the Germans and Austrlans to embark
at Naples.
"And In the caso of German artists,
who will shortly arrive In New York on
the Dues. d'Osta, I had to get a special
release from Kaiser Wllhelm, for a num
ber of them aro of military age and
would otherwlso be amenable to the
charge of desertion.
"It was only when I put to Emperor
William In tho light of Uh being an ex
cellent thing, almost a necessary thing
that the German art and music prestige
should still be maintained and kept alive
In this great American country that tho
Bpeclal despensatlon was forthcoming.
OLD STATION PASSING
Former Landing Place for Immi
grants Delng Demolished.
The'lmmlgratlon Station at Washington
avenue wharf Is being torn down. Work
men began the demolition this morning.
The work continues the march pf prog
ress now going on along the water front.
Immigrants will for a little while be
landed at Vine street pier. Later, when
,the pier at the Immigration Station at
Gloucester Is completed, the aliens will
be discharged there.
For manyyears the old frame building
at the foot of Washington avenue was
the landing place for foreigners coming
to this city. At times for lack of repairs
thu structure became dilapidated and
unsanitary. Hundreds of Immigrants
were crowded In the shedlike place and
conipellednt times to sleep on the floors.
The purcnase by the Government of tho
Thompson estate at Gloucester as an Im
migration Station site relieved these con
ditions, and tho extension of the piers
at Washington avenue and the general
Improvements undertaken by the Inter
national Mercantile Marine Company
doomed the old buildings to destruction.

FLAGG CONVICTED
OF USE OF MAILS
FOR STOCK FRAUD
Promoter, Connected With
Prominent Men Now Un
der Indictment, Is Found
Guilty on Six Counts.
NKW YORK, Nov. 3.-Jnrcd FlngR. the
f-'J per cent, a year stock broker and pro
moter, who has been on trial before Judge
Rudkln nnd n Federal Jury lu the fnltcd
States District Court en an Indictment
charging him lu six counts, with fraudu
lent use of tho United States malls and
a .seventh count charging conspiracy, was
declared guilty late last nlcht hy the
Jury on all charges savo that of con
spiracy. Intenso interest centred In the caso so
fnr as the United States District At
torney's ofllcn was concerned by reason
of tho fact that Flasg had as his asso
ciates a number of prominent nnd Influ
ential men. who are also under indict
ment and the prosecution of whom de
pended to n largo degree upon tho result
of Flagg's trial.
Chief among Flagg's associates In busi
ness was Daniel N. Morgan, treasurer of
the United States under President Cleve
land. Others were 13. G. Hewall, the Kev.
James T. Schoch (who has slnco died),
K. 17. Do AVolfe, James Allen, Rufus P.
Ilankoy and Alvln M. Hlgglns. Flagg
conducted his promoting schemea In of
fices In West 40th street.
In summing up for tho prosecution yes
terday Assistant United States District
Attorney Thompson asserted that the
circulars Issued by Flacc and his mum.
elates represented to possible. Investors
that they would realize 52 per cent, net
profit upon tho principal Invested. He In
sisted that Flagg's books showed that he
had defrauded his customers by throwing
their money away In Wnll street and
collecting double commissions on the
transactions.
Ho charged that the defendant had
never on any money in the courso of
these transactions, nnd declared that the
Government had proved this through a
careful auditing of Flagg's business.
Mr. Thompson declared that Flagg had
never used more than $100,000 margin In
Wall street, and that ho did not live up
to his written representations.
"If tho contention of tho defense Is
true," said the prosecutor, "and Flagg
really earned through his stock gambling
tho ?CuO,000 which he paid out na profits,
why wns It that when his ofllcn were
raided only SISO.CHiO wns found. Where did
the remainder of the JI.200,000 Invested by
his victims go'"
.Mr. Thompson read extracts from
Flagg's circulars and from a booklet
Issued by him. entitled "How to Take
Money Out of Wall Htreet."
John M. Culerann. counsel for Flagg,
contended that no evidence had been ad
duced r show that Ills client had entered
Into a conspiracy with Morgan, Pewoll,
gchock ct al. He Insisted that the addi
tional chargo of conspiracy had been
urged by the Government for the purpose
of strengthening a weak and Incomplete
case.
While Assistant District Attorney
Thompson wns nddresslng the Jury he al
luded to tho fact that tho defense had
attempted to make capital out or me use
of Mr. Slorgan's name.
"It Is unfortunate that Mr. Morgan, a
former Treasurer of the United States,
should be Involved In bucIi proceedings,"
be said, "but such a man owed it to the
peoplo who had honored him to live 1
clean aud honest life, nnd not be carried
away hy the desire to sell his name for a
paltry profit."
In his charge to tho Jury Judge Rudkln
explained that the offense with which
Flagg stood charged was punishable by
$10,000 fine, two years' Imprisonment or
both.

street improvements.
The success of the airard Estate plan
of dwellings, with a central heating plant
nnd many unique real estate features,
makes the extension of the estnto opera

The demand for small properties of the

oi Senator Tenrose coming In from the

loyalty to the Senator has suffered a
reverse that will bo manifested when tha
votes nre counted tonight.
The favorable weather and the Intense
Interest felt In the conflict are serving to
bring out n large Vote. Every Indication
points to the belief that the figures will
show that the votern of Chester County
are no longer under the ban of orders from
leaders. Upon tho faces of the leaders,
who are tied to Penrose, the feeling- of
anxiety la written. The Chester County
public Is prepared to hear of results
calculated to strengthen the Independent
cause.
