Odors from tho Gray's Ferry nbattolr,
Mth street and Gray's Ferry avenue, are
an "Intolerable nuisance" to residents of
West Philadelphia, witnesses testified to
day at the trial of tho abattoir company
before Judge Brcgy In Quarter Sessions
Court, accused of maintaining a nuisance.
Descriptions of tho offending odors
ranged from "very unpleasant" to "pretty
rotten." City Controller John M. Walton.
of 4206 Chester avenue, said tho smells
were so strong at times that It was neccs
sary to close doors and windows. Dr.
Alexandor C Abbott, professor of hygiene
at tho University of Pennsylvania, and
a member of tho Board of Health, de
clared the odors from the plant were
"sickening, oppressive and offensive, sug
gesting heated and decomposed animal
mattor."
Tho odor of boiling fats and bones, sntd
to arise in tho fat-rendering und bone
boiling establishment of tho abattoir com
pany, was tho chief object of the at
tack of Assistant Dlstrlot Attorney
Taulane, prosecuting the case on behalf of

If you wero asked to describe tha
domicile of tho president of tho Midvale
Steel Company a $22,(00,000 corporation,
as every good Phlladelphlan knows you
would Immediately paint a word ploturo
of a plutocratic mansion set In a park
of untold Heron.
Thero would rise In your mind the tslon
of a great army of servants treading
the precincts with noiseless tread just
llko they do on the stage nnd In the story
books. Limousines, electrics and high
powered roadsters would whiz by the
mansion, in an unending procession, and
the whole atmosphere of your description
would be tinctured with wealth and af
fluence. Dreams, Idlo dream si Tho president of
tho Midvale Steel Company lives In a
little, unpretentious, two-story house, Just
like every other house In the same block.
It Is not oven conspicuous for Its well
groomed condition. It docs not breathe
an nlr of new paint and varnish; tho
chairs on tho llttlo porch nro no bettor
than the chairs on tho neighboring
porches; tho curtains In the windows do
not attract attention because of any
superior quality. In fact thero Is nothing
nbout tho house, which Is numbered 22S
East L'psal street, Gormantown, to sug-
eni nowiy acquired ncnea or prestige;
nnd Just from looking nt It, you would
soy offhand that this was tho roof which
sheltered n clork, perhaps, or a stenog
rapher. STENOqnArHER TO PRESIDENT.
It did Just that yesterday morning. But
yesterday afternoon It became the homo
of a corporation president. And thero
wns no removal. In tho short space of an
hour or so ho who was Joseph Entwistle,
confidential clerk and stenographer of tho
Mldvalo Steel Company, the shake-up In
which corporation Is attracting the at
tention of the steel kings of tho world,
bocame Its president
Truo his presidency Is only the result
of a temporary arrangement until Will
iam E. Corey can bo duly elected, but
then, whero Is the stenogrpaher who, like
Joseph Entwistle, will bo able to say,
"Ahem, when I was president of tho
Midvale Steel Company."
When the door of tho Entwistle homo
opened no smug-faced butler extended,
superciliously, a silver salver for a card.
Instead, Mrs. Entwistle, a largo and
motherly-looking person, came to tho
door. It was tho dinner hour and the
apron draped around tho figure of the
president's wife gave testimony that sho
was assisting In tho preparation of tho
meal. She was modest and discreet; dis
cretion being nn attribute thnt Is notice
able nbout nil, even those ever so re
motely connected with the Midvale Steel
Company.
"My husband Is not at home," she snld,
"but ho would not any way, I nm sure,
tllicuns the affairs which hnppened this
afternoon. He Is n sworn ofTlclal of tho
Mldvalo company nnd sworn officials
never speak for publication."
NEW CHIEF LOOKS THE PART.
Those who know tho new president de
clare that his appearance Is more In
keeping with his present exalted position
than with that of stenographer. Ho Is
a man of portly build, about 6 feet tail
and 65 years of age. His air Is that of
tho retired business man.
Truo, thero aro stenographers and
stenographers, nnd tt Is whispered nround
the environs of tho steel company In
NIcetown that Joseph Entwlstlo by his
exhibition of sheer ability And trust
worthiness has gained tho ear of the
most Influential of tha company's board
of directors and that ho knows more of
the steel Industry from the bottom up
thnn any "real and rlghty" president
possibly could.
They also predict that, although the
erstnhtlo stenographer will havo to step
down from the president's chair In a
few days, ho Is ono of tho indlspensablcs,
nnd is. therefore, destined to cut n fig
ure of somo sizo In the future administra
tion of tho big steel company.

TRENTON, Sept 2l.-"Art" Smith,
aviator, crashed Into the home-stretch
fence at the race track opposlto the
grandstand at tho Interstate Fair here
today, and Is probably Injured Internally.
He was making his first flight ofLthe
afternoon, when ho lost control dtj.hls
aeroplane, which Is a total wreck. Ho
was taken to McKlnley Hospital.
Splendid conditions favored tho second
day of tho flvo-day fair. Every Indication
pointed to the 35,000 attendance record of
yesterday being beaten. Today was
"Ladles' Day," and the grounds wero
thronged early with attractively gowned
women from throughout New Jersey and
southern Pennsylvania nnd New York.
Suffragists and anti-suffrnglsts were on
hand when the turnstiles allowed tho en
trance of patrons from trains and trol
leys, prepared to pass out literature bear
ing on the suffrage campaign. Speakers
for both sides delivered heated discourses
on votes for or against votes for women,
standing on soap boxes and other odd
platforms In various parts of the grounds.
Toy balloons, bearing the Inscription,
"Votes for Women," given out gener
ously by the suffragists as an advertise
ment for their cause, were repeatedly
punctured with pins In the hands of tho
anti-suffragists.
Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, president of
the National Suffrage Association, was
at the exposition early and appealed
strenuously to tho men to stand by the
women at tho election on the suffrage
question on October 19.

Called to a Camden Church
The Rev, T. D. Collins, of Phlladel-
phla, has accepted a call to take charare
of the congregation of the Linden Baptist
Church, Camden. He baa been filling the
ulptt slnoe last July. He probably will
s installed as pastor ea Thursday eve
ning, October li.
Things would havo been different ln the
days of Aristotle Tsakanas, they said In
the Greek colony on Locust street today.
Arlstotlo used to be the Greek Consul ln
this olty, and Is still so listed In many
works of reference. But all tho Joy of
finding tho patriotism of Greeks aroused
to tho cheering point became stale and
unprofitable when It was found that
Aristotle had , recently passed on to the
other vanlshod glories that -wero Greece.
In his place Is Georgo Vlllaros, and he
wasn't In when a call was made at his
office to find out how many thousand
Greeks had registered for a trip home
to fight the vulgar Bulgars.
Consuls soem to havo an Irresistible
predilection for old-fashioned buildings
without elevators, whero artists have
studios and havo milk bottles left at
their doors, on dusty, uncarpotod hall
ways, where the feet of visitors echo
hollowly and usually without attracting
attention. The Greek Consul was, of
course, ensconced In tho top floor of such
a building, on Walnut street near 10th.
On tho glazed door wero tho words
"Iloynl Greek Consulate." Tho pencil
lines tho house painter had made to keep
tho letters In these words all tho snmo
size and ln a stralcht lino had nvr Vien
erased.
A knock on the door received no an
sner. Tho consul wns not In. It could
not havo been so In tho days of Aristotle
Tsakanas, but he has departed and no
jokes can bo written nround his name.
Also, in revenge, it will not be hero re
corded that thousands of lnvni nn.i.
made a rush on tho consulate to volun
teer, and, as a matter of fact, they didn't
MH. PAPADEKAPOULOS SEEN.
Tho situation was put up to N Pnpa
dekapoulos as ho was standing outsldo
the Hellonlkon Kaphphestlatorlon, on Lo
cust street, near 10th, picking his teeth
after a session In tho kaphphestlatorlon.
That Is the Greek word for restaurant,
probably. Note tho similarity between it
and such words as "cafe" nnd "cafe
teria. It may not be, but It was too
tempting to uso one's ingenuity to ask
Papodckapoulos what It really means, and
maj bo find that It didn't mean restaurant
nt all. Besides, they really were eating
there.
,.'?Ir PnPnd!lapoulos," it was said,
the Greek legation nt Washington has
nnounccd that all Greek residents In tho
United States between the classes of
1S52 and 1911 havo been called homo. A
dispatch to this effect has been received
ui mo legation from the Athens For
eign Office and was Immediately for
warded to Minister Bouros, of Greece,
at New York. This calls out all reserv
ists between the ages of 24 and 43.
"Tho Bulgarian legation at Washing
ton has received word to call all Bul
garians ln this country to the colors. It
looks like war. We are all hoping
-.ui.icauy mat. mero win do war; haven't
you? It Is said that tho Greek minister
will Immediately Issue n call for reserv
ists through various Greek newspapers
In the United States. There aro about
C6.000 Greek reservists ln tho United
ti tales.
"Now Is It not probable that at least
1000 Greeks will rush to volunteer In this
city alone; that you for ono would not
be far from tho first rank of these vol
unteers?" "NOT," BUT NOT WHAT?
"Not,K said Mr. Papadckapoulos.
"Do you mean, 'Yes, it Is not probable
that they won't,' or do you mean, 'No,
It Is not improbable that they will,' Mr,
Papadekapoulos?"
"Not." he said decisively, making for
tho Hellenlkon Koyrelon, or barber shop
across the way. '
"You don't mind If you are quoted as
Bayl.ig this as a peculiarly representa
tive Greek?"
"Not," ho said cheerfully, shooting the
toothpick Into space.
But at any rate, tho word "Hellenlkon"
was easy. That means Greek.

Youths Accused of Impersonating
Newspaper Men Got Warning
Two young men who saw a stable burn
ing nt Kennedy's lane and Woodstock
street thought it would bo a fine Idea
to become newspaper reporters at 1'
long enough to get inside tho fire lines
and Improve their chances of seeing
everything that was going on. Lacking
time to go downtown nnd apply for Jobs,
they hired themselves, assigned them
selves to "cover" the blaze, and notified
Policeman Trice, ot the Midvale and
Ridge avenues station, that they wanted
to pass the line fixed across the street,
Trice realised the men lacked an In
definable something that he had become
accustomed to associating with newspa
per men. He turned them back. James
Foran, of 2135 Westmoreland street, one
of tho pseudo reporters, told Prlco that
If ho didn't think the two men were what
they said they wero, he would be Pro
vided with proof upon taking off his uni
form. So Price called a "wagon" and
took Foran and his companion, Alfred
Levy, of 2068 Norrls street, to the police
station.
Magistrate Grcllls today gave them
their choice of paying $7.60 each or
spending flvo days ln prison. Later he
remitted the sentence and released the
men with warning.

Dreadful Noises Come From Milk Es
tablishment, Neighbors Say
Milk ts believed to be rather an orderly
fluid, and has never been known to bo
guilty of any wrong except when dragged
Into the company of whisky punches by
conscienceless bartenders. But despite
the general Innocence of the fluid, con
ducting a milk business la said to be a
very noisy occupation, especially at Gratz
street and Montgomery avenue. A milk
establishment tbsre Is conducted by Clay
ton and HowarS Jones, and the neighbors
contend that the employes talk and yell
so loud that they (the neighbors) cannot
o iti ina morning.
The morning shouts of the milkmen
are accompanied by a potpourri of sounds
..um mo cnurns wnicn seem somewhat
unpleasant when a person la first squint
ing a lazy eye at the alarm dock.
The complainants asked Judge Shoe
maker, In Court of Common Pleas No 1
today, to declare the place a nuisance and
enjoin It.
William T. Omnor, representing the de
fendants, said he had a number of po
licemen witnesses and others who could
prove that the complaints against the
plaoe were greaUy exaggerated. The at
torney pointed out that there were a
number of garages nearby, and In a nut.
ahell contended that chugging autos
made more noise than a can of milk.
