AS WOMAN HITS MAN
Frce-for-al! Fight Narrowly Averted
at Central Station
The flat of a 190-pound woman "landed"
on the chin of a man whose remarks she
did not like today and a free-for-all fight
en tha third floor of the Federal Building
among; nearly 400 court spectators and
friends of prisoners awaiting trial was only
averted by the prompt action of deputy
marshals, who rescued the man who was
the centra of the fight.
The fight started In the lobby of the
United States District Court after Joseph
Shefsky, 21 years old, of 3425 South
Beulah street, had been sentenced to 60
days m jail under the Mann act by Judge
Thompson on the charges of Mrs. Fannie
Levfne. of 2620 South 7th Btreet. She
said that Shefsky had Induced her to
leave her husband and go with him to
Baltimore with her two children. He left
her there, she said. Shefsky, however,
who Is nearly ten years younger than the
woman, and la of slender build, said that
the -woman had fallen In love with him
and had persuaded him to take her to
Baltimore against his wish. When he
realized his mistake he left her, he said.
His 70-year-old mother was In court to
testify to his good character, as was David
Strauss, of 813 Pierce street After the
trial, the witnesses left the court room
and Strauss accused Mrs. Levtne of being
Unfair In her testimony. She resented his
-words with a lusty swing to the Jaw, The
Jpoby- was crowded with "hangers-on,"
who' at ones took sides, with screams and
flats.

The announcement made by Mayor
Thomayn. Smith, when he heartily In
dorsed the presidential candidacy of
Qoverflor Brumbaugh, occasioned conatd-
.Vf BUrprle among Philadelphia poll-tlclAris.
While the fact that the Mnvor Is nllled
1th the Brumbaugh-Varo faction has j
aeen known s nee ho went Into office. It
had been expected that he would not i
Openly align himself with the Brumbaugh
f candidacy bccauAe of the attitude ho had ,
assumed regarding the delegites sltua- i
Hon before the first of the year.
In unqualifiedly Indorsing the Brum
baugh cnn'dldacy, the Mayor completely
t-eversed the position which ho took last
December..
On December 10 ho Issued a statement
In which ho said:
Thcro Is no reason or excuso for
nny faction In Philadelphia or In the
State trying to start a political fight.
Wo havo had enough fighting In the
past with the resulting party dofcats.
Particularly In Philadelphia. I will not
stand for any factional warfare In tho
party by contractors or nny one else,
and I havo the real nettled conviction
that In tho greatest Republican city
In tho country the party should not bo
open to tho reproach of contractor
leadership.
I "have known Senator tVnroso well
for a score of year and hare steadily
supported him In hi pnlltlcnl effort.
I realize his great Influence In the
national councils of tho Republican
party and how valuable are his serv
icer at this time on nccount of his
long and wide experience
Representative huitnei- men and
political leaders of the different Con
gressional districts will he elected
delegates to tho National Convention,
and It Is my dtalro that they should
bo In harmony with Mr. Tenrosc and
sustain his leadership for the welfare
or ine atato nnd nation
The statement Issued last night by tho
Mayor was t'lenhnnerf by the Chief Ex
ecutive from Allien, S. C where ho Ir
resting for a week or ten days with Sen
ator .Edwin II. Vnro and several Varc
followers.
In It the Mayor placed his stamp of ap
proval upon the statements made by Re
publican National Committeeman Henry
O. Wasson, who, in his letter asking Gov
ernor Brumbaugh to consent to tho use
of his name for the nurioi of uniting
the Republicans nnd Progressives, lmlnt
ed to Senator Penrose's leadership as
being responsible for tho Republican de.
feat In 1912. Tho Mayor, referring to
the letters exchanged between the Gov
ernor and Mr. Wasson. said, "I wholly
an heartily approve their spirit nnd
sentiment."
ins NEW ATTITUDE
The Mayor's statement was:
Tho letter of Mr Wasson to tho
Governor and his reply will he most
welcome to tho people of Pennsylvania,
nnn la tne beginning of a new era, in
Republican politics In this State. They
aro statesmanlike papers, and 1 wholly
and heartily approve of their spirit
and sentiment.
The Governor's life has been one
of successful effort for tho public wel
fare. From Information of political
conditions throughout the state I am
satisfied that he 1 the only man under
whoso leadership the Republicans and
Progressives can unite and thus avoid
the disastrous result of 1912. He rep
resents all that Is best In American
i 'ihafracter and citizenship and It will
bd my personal pleasure and duty
to do all In my power to support and
aid him to the end that there Bhall
be o-unlted Republican party, led by
one who knows tho needs of tho people
and has the ability and courage to bo
and do tho right.
Senator Penrose has bo far remained
jpllent regarding the Governor's announce
fnent. He Is marshaling his forces as rap
Idly as possible, however, and has prepared
an answer which he will Issue within two
or three days
SEES FLINN"S HAND.
Behind the Brumbaugh candidacy ninny
politicians believe they see the hand of
William Fllnn. of Pittsburgh, Progressive
leader in Pennsylvania. It is generally
believed along tho political riaito that
Fllnn wilt maintain only a skeleton of the
Washington party State organization, and
thus be able to throw many votes to Brum
baugh, at the primaries. Waston Is a
lieutenant of Fllnn, and In political cir
cles It Is believed that he did not act
without llrst having consulted with Fllnn.

GERMANTOWN APPEAL
REJECTED BY COURT
''ontlmiril from l'nur Due

52d and Rnnstcnd streets was announced
by Judge Staake as "not binding" In tho
decision he made.
PUT IN WASTE BASKET.
An nttltudo unfavorable to the Gcr-
mantown remonstrants made Itself felt
Entire Reading System Halts
During Impressive Funeral
Services for President
of Railroad
SOCIETY WOMEN WEEP
Every train of the Philadelphia and
Rending Railroad enme to a standstill at
11 o'clock today. Every trackwalker stood
silent, with bared head, every track re
pairer dropped his pick and for one minute
tho entire railroad system and office force
Censed to operate and did honor to the
memory of Theodora Voorhecs, late presi
dent of the company.
At the samo moment, tho Rev David
M. Steele, rector of the Church of St. I.uke
and the Epiphany, bowed his head In
prayer over the body of Mr. Voorhecs nt
Colony House, the Voorhees residence nt
Elklns Park. About the coffin were
grouped the leading railroad magnates of
tho United States, tho most prominent
men of Philadelphia, standing shoulder to
houlder with conductors, brakemen, en
gineers, flagmen nnd other employes of tho
railroad.
Common grief over tho death of Mr.
Voorhees created a. bond of sympathy
nmong these men who represented every
PHAYEK A POTENT INFLUENCE
almost ns soon as the court opened. Fifty csa from lhe highest to the most hum
of tlu- remonstrants were In court! oth- Me. Railroad presidents nnd other high
ers expected to bo thcro later, but the
session was over beforo they arrived
When the decision ngalnst henrlng tho
remonstrances were announced, court
clerks gathered tip tho great heap of
remonstrances, on which 340C names
appeared miny of them duplicates, and
dropped them Into a waste basket which
was returned to tho Gonnantown delega
tion. Judge Bnrratl RUinmed up the nttltudo
of tho court townrd the (Sermnntown pro
tests. "What nuthnrlty has tho court."
ho asked "to divest the licensee, who may
havo largo sums Invested In his business,
of his license unless n specific violation
of tho law in charged against him?"
Both devoted considerable time to dis
cussing tho iiucstlon from all its angles
and doflnlng their position Mr. Hhepparrt
came In for criticism, as to the purpose of
the remonstrants nnd their right to pro
test against it-grunting licenses unless
they accused tho saloonkeepers of break
ing the law.
"This Is it tiuestlon of absolute prohibi
tion, Isn't It?" Judge Barratt asked. "It
Is not a question of regulation. Vnu want
us to say to theso licensees: 'We're going
to put you all out of business !' Isn't that
what you want us to do?"
SENTIMENT HAS CHANGED.
Shepp.ird replied that, on the mi r face,
that appeared to bo tho purpose, but de
clared the number of remonstrances to be
so overwhelming as to show n change of
sentiment regarding saloons In tho neigh
borhood. "It Isn't a physical change In the neigh
borhood that wo will attempt to show,"
he said, "but a change In tho attitude of
the neighborhood townrd saloons. At tho
llev. J. W. Walker in Lenten Sermon
Points Out Its Value
A panto Is close upon the heels of the
present "era of prosperity" and can only
be thwnrted through prayer, was the sub
stance of tho noonday Lenten Bcrmon de
livered today by the Rev. John W, Walker,
Vicar of the Holy Comforter Episcopal
Church, at Old St Peter's Church, 3d nnd
Pine streets. Ab proof of his assertion, the
Rev. Mr. Walker recounted history, show
ing that famlno Invariably proceeds a
tlmo of prosperity.
The speaker spoke on "The Need or
Prayer." He cited Instances In which
men achieved what they desired by pray
ing to God
"This age, being a prosperous one," the
Rev Mr. Walker said, "should bo the oc
casion of fervent and devout prayer, nnd
the Impending danger of a. probable panic
may ,bo averted by the grace of the
Creator. '
"MARRIAGE FOR MONEY
A CLAW THAT RENDS"
Rev. I. Chantry Hoffman De
plores Conditions That
Lead to Divorce
officials sldently shook the hands of mes
sengers. Women prominent In society
wept with tho wives of employes of the
railroad who had known Mr. Voorhees. It
was the most cosmopolitan service that
has marked tho funeral f a prominent
Phlladelphlan
Outside of the Voorhees residence thcro
wns another group of mourncis. They
too represented exery rank of society, and
stood with bowed heads during tho en
tire time tho service wns being conducted.
Most of those who attended the service
came to Elklns Park on a special train
which left Rending Terminal at 10.16
o'clock. Among the well-known faces
seen among thnso on tho train was that
of "Diamond" Jim Brady.
Tho Rev. Dr. Steele was assisted at
tho funeral service by the Rev J. Thom
son Cole, rector of SL Paul's Church,
at Ashbourne. At tho conclusion of the
ceremony nt the Voorhees residence eight
messengers who had served Mr. Voorhees
for years on tho fourth lloor of tho Read
ing Railway Building carried the body to
an automobile hearse, which carried the
body to tho yard of St. Paul's Church,
Ashbourne. Each of tho pallbearers was
In his blue uniform. They were Alfred
Shlssler, Thomns Audls, Michael A. Nor
ton. Walter J. Bradley, Daniel Peters,
Harry Johnson. Matthew Somcrs nnd Jo
seph Cavanaugli.
Among those who attended tho services
were:
13. T. Stoteslmry, Oliver Blackwcll, pres
ident of tho Wlldwood Steam Railway
Company; former Stntc Senator David S.
Chew, M. C. Kennedy, president of tho
Cumberland Valley Railroad ; H. C. Clark,
"Marriage for money mnnlfestn a ma
terialism which murders marital happi
ness." This declaration was made today by
tho Rev. I. Chantry Hoffman In the courso
of n sermon on "The Christian Fnmlly,"
nt Kt John's Church, Race street
below Ath.
Ho deplored the lack of love In many
homes nnd pointed out that where love
Is left out of the married state there In
hell. After dwelling nt length on tho
Christian limitations of dlx-orco, tho
speaker said "tho gotden claxv does not
bind, hut rends. God Is a wooer that wins
when other charms fall."
Mansions without love nnd with riches
are prisons. Cottages without wealth and
hnvlng love are palaces. Love Is tho
guard which keeps the o'fccer of tho
divorce court axx-ay.
"What docs It profit tho wedded to
gain opulence nnd lose the Joy of the
married state? Does It pay to barter nup
tint bliss for the sumptuous fnrc and tho
select company and the gorgeous npparcl?
The tlmo ior rank speaking has come.
The Reno and Cheyenno divorce colonics
tell a story of sadness unspeakable.
"Legislation shows Itself almost xvlth
out Influence In staying tho swelling tldo
of divorces In all States except In South
Carolina, xvhero a dlx-orce has ncx-er been
granted. Jurists nnd moralists and lovers
of tho homo ngrco that the Church of
Christ Is right In the position It takes that
when a man and xvoman consent to
gether In holy wedlock the obligation Is
until do us part."
In conclusion the speaker urged that all
strlx-e to avoid the beginnings that separate.

D. Clarence Olbboncy, of the Law and

the court, was based on tho fact that the
State, which xvas virtually In partnership
with the saloon, because of the taxes, had

Hear in
1HAT is the one proof- the final test of
the qualities of a musical instrument.
And measured by that test, the Columbia
Grafonola superbly proves its right to the title of
"The One Incomparable Instrument of Music."
TO HEAR it is to feci the thrill of absolute reality. Its
tone is so pure, crystal-clear, and flawlessly true to life
that it well-nigh makes the hearer forget the presence of
an instrument.
TO HEAR it play a delicate, airy bit of chamber-music,
then a tremendous orchestral symphony, is to gain a new
conception of its marvelous range and power. No detail
or shading of a theme is lost, and the peculiar tones of all in
struments are returned with the musical values unaltered.
TO HEAR it with critical appreciation of its musical
possibilities is truly to feel convinced that art and science
could hardly go further in the reproduction or musical
sound.
Hearing is Believing" Put the Columbia
Grafonola to the final test today. I here
