Incidentally. Edwards; death may Indi
rectly be attributed to tho grip, ns It had
caused him to be nwny from St. Colum
bus rarochlal School, nnd ho left his
v.. tn no to n bnrhcr shop when tho
fatal accident occurred.
Tim nollco say the boy had been steal-
Irs a ride on the back of n brewery wncon
which was preceding Dr. Schutc's nuto
mnhlle. nnd that he Jumped oft the wacon
!nd stepped In front of tho machine nt

The physician swerved the machine, but
not speedily enoufih to permit the lad to

Mm Janette Shute leaned far out from
tho side of her husband's automobile, nt
the risk of her own life, Rrubbed tho
child's clothlnR nnd lifted him bodily
from the street surface.
The clothing tore, however, and the
boy fell to the street. Mrs. Shute nearly
fell from the movlns machine herself,
but Doctor Shute with one hand mnn
aged to help her keep her balance.
Doctor Shuto placed the child In nn
automobile' driven by Horace Phy, 5910
North 12th street, which wns pnsslnpr,
and took him to the Samatltnn Hosniltnl.
His skull was fractured and he did not re
cover consciousness before his death,
which occurred last nlRht.
Doctor Shute surrendered himself to
the police after leavlnR the hospital, Ho
was liberated, however.
The boy's sister, Marie Aubrey, married
Schaiiff In AuRust. It was snld nt the
Aubrey home that the Schangs had Just
left to attend the wedding" of a brother.

of the death, It Is believed that the couple
will return to Philadelphia at -once.
TO SEK! PROMISE TO BLIND
Husband in Hospital and Fam
ily Must Sleep on Floor of
Their Desolate Home
What Is known to many ns charity bns
been Instrumental In Riving n certain
nmount of food to Mrs. Frank Itoskl
nnd her three children, ntld this food has
kent them alive. Hut there wns not
enough charity to keep her off the floor
of her room nt 1037 South 6th street.
Upon the floor she sleeps.
So do the children, but It docs not hurt
them so much, becnuse they get the
lion's share of the food that comes Into
the house, nnd so nro better fortified
ngnlnat the cold; nnd besides, children do
not worry about their discomforts. Hut
Mrs. lloskl worries nbout her health, be
cause It Is of vital Importance to her to
I bo nt least reasonably taken enre of
Just now, as she expects another child
within n month.
There was a report of the ciiho in a
morning newspaper, nnd nn InvestlRntlon
todny has verified statements concerning
the plight of the Iloskls. Her husband
Is In the Philadelphia Hospital with ty
phoid fever. It will bo many a long day
before he Is able, to do anything for bis
family. Tleforo his present Illness he had
been steadily employed. A few weeks be
fore Christmas ho occupied n position ns
nn extra clerk In a local express olllco.
In n few days he began to feel 111. Mrs.
Hoskl henrd her husbnnd's complaints In
n fever of trepidation. She had never
been compelled to nsk nsslstnnco from any
one outside the family. Ho ticenmo
weaker nnd w;enker, one day had to stay
home. A doctor totd him he had typhoid.
Ho would have to go to a hospital. "Hut
how shall we get along7" snld Mrs. Hoskl.
The moment ho Btopped work their system
of hand-to-mouth living fell like n houses
of cauls.
Hoskl made for the door, to go to work,
but he was so weak that he fell down, and
ho had to be helped to tho hospital the
hopltnl where the poor do not have to
pay nnd which Is, therefore, In n dilnpl
daten and neglected condition tho Phila
delphia Hospital.
Tho Society for Or nnlzlng Charity has
done the best It could do for Mrs. lloskl.
Hut there are many clnlms upon the so
ciety, nnd In order to be fnlr to all It can
not give too much to any one person For
this reason. Mrs. Hoskl, 'unable to work
b'ecauso of her condition, could get
enough to eat for herself nnd her chil
dren, but not blnnkets nnd sheets nnd
beds for beds bnd gone by the board, to
the pawubioker's.
For a month now the woman has been
struggling along. Thero Is no coal In tint
house, nnd there has been but little ful
there for a month stray hits of wood.
The cold Is deep-seated In the walls and
floor of the room of the Hoskls.

NKW YOHIf. Jnn. S.-If Colonel Itooso
vclt Is seektiiR thr Ilepuhllcati nomination
for President, as u number of polltlrlnni
have nsrtcd, he Is at least determined
not to permit his name tn appear on tho
ballots In any of the States where dele
gates to the nntionnl conventions are
chosen nt .the primaries. This order will
apply to the ticket submitted by tho
Progressive patty as well.
Thnt much was settled definite! es
terdoy when the Colonel sent u letter
from Oyster Hay to the olllce of Sec
retary of State Vnushnn at Lansing,
Mich., requesting him lo see to It that
Ills name was not placed on the ballot
nt the candidate of any party. I to had
received n message from Mr. Vaughan
Informing him that his adherents In both
the iteptlbtlcnn and Progressive paitlcs
had tiled u sulllciiiit number of names
to put his hat In the ring.
As soon as this letter was sent, the an
nouncement was permitted to go out that
Colonel Ilooscvclt would not appear as a
candidate In the prlm.it. elections In any
of the States. The position tho Colonel
takes is that he Is not a candidate In iiny
sense of t'.ie wed, at this time at least.
IJut the chances arc that the Coluuel,
thus In a i-eimc "unattached," will put
In nn nj pcarnnce at 'hlcugo on June ,
when, by all present signs, both Repub
licans and I'rcgicsslves will assemble In

political history of the country.
HEIR MAY USE SIGNATURE
PARIS, Jan. G.
The Matin nflUm, notwithstanding de
nials, thnt the German Emperor Is suffer
ing from cancer of the throat nnd Is no
longer nblc to speak.
'In Kebrunry, 1911," according to the.
Matin, "the doctors were considering
whether It wns necessary to remove tho
entire larynx In order to stay the progress
of the disease. They raised tho question
ns to whether the I!mpcror would be nble
to speak If such an operation were per
formed The lending specialists of every
capital In tturopo were consulted. It wns
learned that nn eminent surgeon of Paris
had. with nn nrtlllclal larynx nnd n
breathing tube opening Into the trachea,
restored tho power of speech to numerous
pntlonts who had undergone total obla
tion of tho nffected organ
"This doctor, whose name the Mntln
withholds for rensons of professional eti
quette, was asked to go to Berlin by tho
(lermnn Ambassador He was offered 100,
000 frnncs ($20,000) nnd all his expenses,
nnd wns requested to bring with him a
patient who had been lilted with the ap
paratus, so thnt tho Emperor himself
might learn If he was nble to speak.
"Meanwhile, ns n result of a minor
operation with a bistoury and a few
weeks' nbsoluto rest, tho Emperor's con
dition Improved, as Is often the case In
this dlicaie, the progress of which Is
Implncablc hut slow. It Is nnother opera
tion of this kind which hns Just been per
formed. Hut it Is only palliative. The
Herman Emperor must either make up
his mind to complete removal of the
larynx or be stilled by tho growth.
"This explains why the Emperor went
neither to Warsaw, Constantinople nor
Ilrussels."
"The seriousness of the Knlser's Ill
ness Is now openly admitted," says a
Dally News dispatch from Ttomc. "It Is
said to be due to blood poison . i. al
though no statement of th? ..pcclttc
cause has been made. The Knlrrr already
has been operated upon twice, but his
condition is hot improved.
"C'oinpllcntlon.s are feared, nnd a
long peilod of absolute rest is con
sidered Indispensable for a cure. It
Is possible thnt the Crown Prince will
be Intruste.. with the Impel Inl signa
ture unless the Knlser's health im
proves. Meanwhile, the Kaiser's depar
ture for Solla and Constantinople. Ilxcd
for January 15, has been abandoned, us
the doctors arc convinced he wilt be
unlit for tinvel for some mouths.
"The Chnncellor alone was nllowed to
visit the- Emperor on N'cw Year's Hay "
Nevertheless, a Ilerlln dispatch says
thnt annul Admiral von Tlrplt. con
ferred with the Kaiser yesterday. It Is
believed the discussion dealt with the
sinking of the P. anil U. liner Persia In
the Mediterranean.

Facts Versus
Fallacies
FACT is a real state of things. FALLACY is an appar
ently genuine but really illogical statement or argument.
TJNDER date of December 13th, the following cable was
sent from London: "King George, who suffered severe
injuries by being thrown from his horse at the British
front in France, October 28th. has recovered sufficiently
to take up affairs of state under certain restrictions. Re
specting the King's condition. Sir Frederick Treves,
sergeant-surgeon to the King, and Sir Bertrand Dawson,
physician extraordinary to his Majesty, have made the
following statement:
AE ARE hanPy t0 rePort tha- the King has so far re
covered from the grave accident of October 28th,
as to be able to resume work with certain limitations.
te. &
m .alJTtVii 4M
Sl&:
"T-HE King has lost seriously in weight, and until a nor
mal state of health is attained, it is essential that
his Majesty should avoid any cause of fatigue. It has
been necessary on medical grounds that the King should
take a little stimulant daily during convalescence. As
soon as the King's health is quite restored, he will resume
total abstinence, which he imposed upon himself for pub
lic reasons 1"
p HE most extraordinary FALLACY is here apparent
for if the worthy King of England takes, to quote the
cables, "a little stimulant daily during convalescence,"
and it does him so much good, why in the world, when his
Majesty gets better should he lose sight of the FACT that
a little stimulant daily will continue to be beneficial?
"LITTLE" stimulant never does anyone harm for
the moderate drinker is the true disciple of Temper
ance. The FACT that George of England found "a little
stimulant daily" a distinct gain to his health should dis
prove the FALLACY that the moderate indulgence in
alcoholic beverages is harmful.
