MESSAGE TO GUARDSMEN Telegram to General Clement Assures IHm of Prayers of Associa tion's Members I If-'. i :? i DEDFOKD BPIUNOS, Pa., June 29. . "Dyspeptic, despotic, splonetlc ana silly'' were some of the adjectives applied to the Judge who browbeats attorneys, In ho ad dress delivered this morning by Itlchard Hays Hawkins, of Pittsburgh, at the final session of the Pennsylvania Bar Associa tion's twenty-second annual meeting. ms speech upon "Judicial Abuse" was a caustic commentary upon the "antics of the bench" and occupied the whole of the morning, He aimed his criticism at Judges who make their opinions vehicles of abuse and Ill tempered reflections upon attorneys appear Jng before them or other Judges. Mr. IiawKins cuea jcremian uiacK, once Attorney General of the United States and Justice of tho Supreme Court of Pennsyl ' vanla, as one whoso opinions bristled with 'ri,' vehemence and vituperation. Ho placed In the same category such prominent JurlstB as Judge Dean, Chief Justlco Ellis Lewis, Chief Justlco Lowrlo, Justlco George W. Woodward and Chief Justlco John Bannis ter Olbson, all of Pennsylvania. "JUSTIFIED AT TIMES." "I admit that the nbuso of an attorney Is Justified at times," said Mr. Hawkins, "but to tell a lawyer that hals an ass, a petti fogger or boro does not tend to. make him wiser. This abuse, If temporary or tran sient, might bo toleraod, but when spread upon tho pages of reports that will be road for many years, tho bar haa a right to pro test. Though ono may have no personal experience of such practices, yet there Is roused a feeling of disgust In reading tho decisions of our higher cqurts."

WIVES, MOTHERS, SWEETIJEARTS AWAIT ARRIVAL OF SOLDIERS Baltimore and Ohio Station 'at Twenty-fourth and Ghest x nut Streets Crowded for Hours by Devoted Women Tho man who can't understand patlenco should go to tho Baltimore nnd Ohio depot, at 24th and Chestnut streets. Thero are scores of women thoro who hnvo been waiting moro than 24 hours for a glimpse of their soldier husbands or sons, and JUBt becauso tho Mount Gretna troop trains haven't arrived yet Is no reason, thoy say, why they should be Impatient. Just as If It wero the most ordinary thing In tho world these women tell how they havo been waiting slnco yesterday at 5 a. m. or 7 to 9 or H n. m., nnd aro pro pared to wait a week If necessary. Their preparation consists In wlllngness to sleep on hard benches nnd money enough to patronize the station restaurant. Under no conditions will they cat tho food they havo brought along for tho soldiers dear. Take tho story of tho mother of Alex ander Adalre, who before ho went away with Company L, of tho 2d Regiment, lived nt 1227 West Lehigh avenue. Sho came to tho station before most persons wero at breakfast yestorday, and Bho hasn't left slnco.. She brought with her a Bister of young Adalre, ' and met a. charming soul, whose name is Mrs. Charles McConnhy and whose husband Is In Company D, of the 2d. Their home is at 2136 Corlles street s An Adalre's mother and sister put It. "Wo don't see how we'd of got along without Mrs. McConahy. Sho has certainly kept our spirits up." MRS. McCONAHY'S WAY. Mrs. McConahy (and she has no especial liking for war and its potential disasters to her) Is the merriest person ono ever wants to meet She sees a laugh In everything, nnd tho way the rest of the women flock around her is proof enough that they need her good humor to keep them normal. Without her that station would be gloomy to distraction. When the various waiters told how they had spent the night there, and some curious one asked If they slept well, It was Mrs. McConahy, who broke In and said they didn't sleep at all ; thoy had too much fun. And she kept up all this by-play, not to enjoy herself, but for tho sake of tho other waiting mothers nnd wives. She Is a real, human woman, if there ever was one. TWO .OTHER PATIENT WAITERS. Mrs. Norman Shenton, of 2220 Fltzwater street, waited yesterday from noon to. mid night and was back again nt S o'clock this morning. It Is her husband 'she waits for. Ho Is In the 2d Regiment's band. Beforo ho had to go to camp 'he played In the Police Band when he wasn't on his beat out of the 20th and Fltzwater streets police station. Mrs. Shenton had a wonderful luncheon put up' for him. With her Is waiting Mrs. Robert Porter, of 2227 Fltzwater street Her son, Robert, a (strapping boy of IS to Judge from the picture she showed. Is In the 2d Regiment, too, nnd It Is up to Policeman Shenton to take care of' him. Mrs. Shenton laid that Injunction on her husband before he left, and Mrs. Porter feels better on that account' Good Samaritans vie with trouble-makers In. the railroad station. One woman yes terday approached many of the patient waiters, and told them they would havo to give way to the Woman's Americaniza tion Committee when the troop trains came In; they said the society women on that committee would take precedence over' tlfe mothers and sisters in receiving the sol diers. "" GOOD SAMARITANS ANSWERED. You should, have heard the way these motljers said they answered this woman. After hearing 'them tell It, there Isn't any doubt that the first to receive the soldiers when they come In will be the mothers and sisters, and no-organization representatives. For- the moment they forgot their concern for those they came to see, In their Indigna tion tnai some one else would want to get In ahead of them. And the Qood Samaritans I There la one Cheap Food Full of Nourishment "Skimmed milk has a trifle more protein, volume for vpfum'e,' than whole milk," say the Government experts.

All of this patient group who waited, nodding, last night so that If the 'train did como In they'd bo there, couldn't say enough In praise of tho railroad olllclnls and tele phono operators. "Thoy wero Just fine," said Soldier Adalre's sister ; "wo'd ask them the same question a hundred times and more, nnd they wore always as gentle and line as could be.

Several years ago Amies' father received a threatening letter signed "Va. Mana Perl," or "Italian IJlack Hand." Death was threatened If money waB not paid. The elder Amies turned over tho letter to the authorities, and fear is entertained that In retaliation members of the band came to this country and followed tho son until a favorable opportunity to kidnap him pret. sented Itself. Tho kidnapping theory concerning the disappearance of the Schllder girl was ac cepted by the police after search for the little girl's body In the river had proved fruitless. From Investigations, It Is be lieved sho was carried away In a boat from Kensington. She told little girl companions that she was going to take a boat ride before sho went home. Her disappearance occurred Monday. Osllnsky hns not been seen slnco April 17. On the morning of that day he left homo for school.
