artistically on tho topmost bar. They

more than a minute when a curious little
old woman rushed up to one ot thorn,
matched her stick from her and yelled.
"Now, you BOYS srot'.out of here; this
ain't no hitching post." After a moment
or so our young heroines controlled them
selves sufficiently to speak up and the,

rested, and they, in turn, tried tq brighten

quite a lot about herself and was proud
to say she "owed no man anything."
She had worked, hard all her life and

Sevejnl thousand persona clogged the
sidewalk, on the north tide of Market street
abovn Twelfth at luncneon time ik'ls after
noon. Persevering cops tried to appeaie
them but they surged and growled and
scrambled. The rumor spread that the
President was In town Others said Charlie
Chaplin was walking down Market street
Both reports proved wrong.
The attraction was "half a broiled
chicken on toast with mashed potatoes ten
cents" at the Opening ot McCrory's new
flve-and-ten cent store at 1207-11 Market
street.
Al sizes and all nations wero represented
In the crowd They smacked tholr lips in
happy anticipation, and several declared
they "never could nave believed It" with
the cost ot living and eating elsewhere sky
high.
The crowd collected despite the fact that
entrance to the store could be gained Imme
diately If you could get near the door
Hundreds' wandered Inside and llttened to
the glowing adjectives of demonstrators as
they held their, appetites In check, but
most ot the crow poured down to the base
ment, whte hundreds and hundreds of
chickens were broiling In pans awaiting
tho tnassacre .The appetizing odor tan
talized 4helr patience.
Soon the bars were let down In the neatly
adorned dining-room Picture thousands
of prisoners from tho trenches attacking
their first good meal In months or a hair
famished boy attacking mother's refriger
ator after a long day In the open and you
might have xomo Idea of the scene.
"Chicken and potatoes" were the words
which flew In all directions. The "chic"
of chicken lay half formed on the lips ot
the crowd before It sat down. It was true
that the bill of fare held many other bar
gain attractions, but Anally the waiters
saw It .was useless to hand the cards out
Every customer was chicken mad.
It kept more than a score of waiters
busy. And the guests saw to It that they
got a whole half. It required many hun
dreds bf chickens to fill the crowd.
But those vho came to take some out
were refused The management said It
wasn't fair to let any fowl fall Into the
hands ot speculators.
.Many hats went askew and many feet
were trampled In the rush for the feast.
Fortunately a man was selling corn salve
In one of tho main aisles. He had the
corns of well-known Philadelphia men in
frames. He did a big business after tho
rush.
FATAL TENEMENT FIRE
CALLED GRAVE LESgON
Inspector Says Deaths oC Thrco
Should Rouse People to
Action
The tragic loss of three lives In the fire
at 1719 Norrls street early yesterday morni
Ing may lend to Improvement of housing
conditions In Philadelphia.
That was the hope expressed by Arthur
nuchholz, supervising Inspector of hous
ing, this morning.
Despite the horror of the deaths of Mrs.
Eleanor Howard, Mrs Charles Meany and
her son, Charles Meany, Jr. who were
trapped by the 'fire In the houv leased by
Charlea Trout and his wife, which was
being operated as a. tenemenf In direct vio
lation of tho housing laws, the publicity
given the matter should work to a good
end, Mr Buchhots declared. In arousing
publlo consciousness to the fact that Ideal
housing In Philadelphia Is far from having
come Into Its own. v
"Unfortunately, there are many people
and many officials," he said, "who dd" not
seem to realize the Importance of the tene
ment situation In Phlladelph n. There la a
crying need for more Inspection Councils
are In session arranging next year's budget
This matter should be taken up Immediately
It Councils do not take the Initiative, some
one should come forward and Impress upon
them the neceielty for a, provision In this
budget for more inspectors."
Trout as was pointed out yesterday, was
threatened with prosecution for operating
a tenement house which did not have the
required fire apparatus, but, although the
Housing Commission know this for more
than a year, the Inspector of that district
hadn't got around to the 1700 block, Norrls
street when the Aro occurred.
Tho quarantine established by Coroner
Knight who made a personal Inspection of
the scene ot fire, Is still being maintained.
Miss Elsie Howard and Hilda Trainer,
daughter and granddaughter ot one of the
dead women, are being treated In the
Women's Homcopathlo Hospital for burns
on the face and hands, which they suffered
In escaping from the house.

When Austin made his appearance, on the
day following his return, his bleared eyes,
his puffy, pasty cheeks, his shattered nerves,
showed plainly enough how he had spent
J1'? time. Although he was Jumpy and Irri
table, he seemed determined by an assump
tion of high spirits and exaggerated friend
liness to avert criticism. Since Alalro
spared him all reproaches, his efforts
seemed to meet with admirable success.
Now Ed's opinion of women wa,s not high,
for those with whom he habitually as
soclated were of small Intelligence; and,
seeing that his wife continued to manifest
a complete Indifference to his oast actions.
he decided that his apprehensions had been
groundless. If Alalre remembered the Guz
man affair at all, or if ahe had suspected
him of complicity In it time had evi
dently dulled her suspicions, and he was a
little sorry he had taken pain to stay
away so long.
Before many days, however, he dis
covered that this Indifference of hers was
not assumed, and that In some way or other
she had changed. Ed was accustomed, when
he returned exhausted from a debauch, to
seeing In his wife's eyes a strained misery;
ho had learned to expect In her bearing a
sort of pitying, hopeless resignation. But
this time she was not In the least depressed.
On the contrary, she appeared happier,
fresher, and younger than he had seen her
for a long time. It was mystifying. When,
one morning, ho overheard her singing in
her room, he was shocked,
oyer tnis pnenomenon he meditated wth
growing amazement and a faint stir ot re
sentment In his breast for he lived a self
centered life, considering himself the pivot
upon which revolvod all the affairs of his
little world. To feel that he had lost even
the power to make his wife unhappy argued
that he had overestimated his Importance.
At length, having sumclently recovered
his health to begin drinking again, he
yielded one evening to an alcoholic im
pulse and, Just as Alalre bade him good
night clumsily sought to force an explana
tion. "See here I" he shot at her. "What's the
matter with you latelyT" He sew that he
had startled her and that she mode an
effort to collect her wandering thoughts,
"you're about as warm and wifely as a
stone idol."
"Am I any different to what I have al
ways been?"
"Jlumpht Tou haven't been exactly
sympathetic of late. Here I come home
sick, and you treat mo like one ot the
help. Don't you think I have feellngst
Jove I I'm lonesome."
AlMre regarded him speculatively, then
shook her head as if In answer to some
tbquzht.
In an obvious and somewhat too mellow
effort to be friendly, Ed oonUnued; "Don't
let's go on llko Jthln, Alalre- You blame
me for swing away no mueh, but, good
Lord I when Pro heme I feel like an Inter
loper You treat me like a now thief"
"I'm Berry, I've tried to be everything
I should. I'm the interloper."

as well as we seem to from the outside It
wryjldn't be bad at all. But you're too

girls think It la A wife must learn to give
and take."
"I'vo given What have I taken?" she
asked him In a voice that quivered.
Ed made an Impatient gesture. "Oh,
don't be so literal. I mean that since
we're man nnd wife. It's up to you to bo a
little more broad gauge In your views"
"In other words, you want mo to Ignore
your conduct. Is that It? I'm afraid we
can't argue that. Ed." ,,
Within the last few days Austin's mind
had registered a number of new Impres
sions, and at this moment he realized that
his wife was undoubtedly the most attrac
tive woman physically he had ever known.
Of course, sho was cold, but she had not
always been so Ho had chilled her; ho
had seen the fire die year by year, but
now the memory ot her as she had once
been swept over him, bringing; a renewea
appreciation of her charms. His recent
dissipation had told upon him as heavily
as a siege of sickness, and this evening he
was In that faturuis. sentimental mood
which comes with convalescence. Having
no fault to find with "himself, and feeling
merely a selfish desire to make more pleas
ant his life at I-as PalmaB, he, undertook
to bend Alalre to his will.
"All right; don't let's try to argue It"
he laughed, with what ho considered an
admirable show of magnanimity. "I hate
arguments, anyhow ; I'd much rather have
a good-night kiss."
But when he stooped over her Alalre
held him oft and turned her head. "No!"
she said.
"You haven't kissed me fin- "
"I don't wish to kiss you."
"Don't be silly." he Insisted. This sug
gestion of physical resistance excited his
love of conquest and awoke something like
the 'mood of a lover such n lover as a
man like Ed could be. For a moment ho
felt ns If Alalro were some other woman
than his wife, a woman who refused and
yet half expected to be overcome; there
fore, he laughed self-consciously and re
peated, "Come, now, want aklss."
Alalre thrust him back strongly, and he
saw that her face had whitened. Oddly
enough, her stubbornness angered him out
of all reason, and he began a harsh remon
strance. But he halted when she cried:
"Walt I I must tell you something, Edd
It's all over, and has Been ror a long ume.
We're going to end It"
"End It?"
"We can't go on living together. Why
should we?" .
'So? Divorce? Is that It?"
Alalre nodded.
"Well, I'll be damned I" Ed was dum
founded. "Isn't this rather sudden?" he
managed, to inquire.
"Oh, no. You've suggested It more than
once."
"I thought you didn't believe In di
vorces couldn't stomach 'em? What's hap
pened?" "I have changed my mind."
