Mr. Lynch. "That Is,' he added, "if

"What do I know about the report
of my appointment as Chief of Police'.'
Well, I taw It in the paper on Satur

ter of fact, I had supposed that it was
settled that there was to be no change,
you understand me?"

"Are you being considered by the
City Commissioners for the place?"
"Well, yes, I can say that. I be

Hutchison Is Ready
"I am not like William Jennings
Bryan and musn't be told three times
I am not wanted," said Colonel Joseph
B. Hutchison when asked what he had
to say about his being displaced by
Windsor.
"I belong to the 'know nothing' cluss
when it comes to telling anything
about my position," continued the Col
onel. "I believe Billy Windsor Is a
capable man. I am ready to step
down and out when they want me to
do so. T am here to serve the people

Bailey at once got in touch with the
New York office, made arrangements
to rush the cable money order and in
just six hours' time $1,280 was deliver

saved when he will go home to live

NOVEL, THEATER, SEX
IGNORANCEANDDANCE
LEAD GIRLS TO SIN
Says These Factors Are What
Cause Young Women Into
Shame and Incorrigibility
Novel reading.
Tile theater.
Dancing.
Sex ignorance.
Carelessness of mothers.
These are some of the grave dan
gers that make up "the girl problem,"
the Rev. E. A. G. Bossier, pastor of
State Street United Brethren Church,
this morning declared In a paper read
before the United Brethren Ministerial
Association at the Y. M. C. A. build
ing, locust and Second streets.
The remedies proposed by the Rev.
Mr. Bossier in hia paper are the re
building the family altar; a better
understanding between mother and
daughter, an early acceptance of Jesus
Christ.
Hot Denunciations
In his talk Mr. Bossier made a hot |
denunciation of the dance, theater and !
novel reading, showing how these in
fluences in his opinion, had a tend
ency to develop the lower instincts
in the girl at the same time that her
education in sex knowledge through
the proper sources was being neglect
ed.
In talking of the evils, he said nov
els which show sin In an attractive
way have a bad influence on the girl.
The dance, and he pointed out that he
meant the round dances such as the
waltz and two-step, "appears to be
especially contrived to arouse the low
est passions In the young people."
After reading these descriptions he
said. I am convinced that very, very
few Indeed, are able to participate ill
the round dance and remain perfectly
pure In thought and life. Let the
sexes dance apart and at once the
| bottom drops out of it. The dance
[without the other sex is about the
most insipid thing on earth.
"The danger of the theater," he
said, "lies in its extreme suggestive
ness, its frovolous, worldly and unholy
atmosphere. Its lowering of the moral
I taste, and its blunting of the moral

Mustaches of Every Style
Predominate in Court Today
Duster, "Chest Protector," Eyebrow, Toothpick, and the
, >s> . Three Days' Growth Among Those Present
Mustaches predominated In court
to-day.
Most everything: was there in style
and color; something new, something
old, something unique and something
bold.
Of course there was the occasional
"chest protector," the duster, the eye
brow, the toothpick—that two or three
hair arrangement that fits under the
nose; the Van Dyke—near and en
tirely; the drooping walrus effect, and
Anally the Emperor William. That
style, by the way, was most in evi
dence. And of course there was that
occasional scrubby, moth-eaten effect
that goes with a three days' gTowth.
In connection with the appearance
of the mustaches were more than a

FAMOUS JAPANESE
DIPLOMAT IS DEAD
Viscount Siuzo Aoki Was Formerly
an Ambassador to United
States
Ry Associated Press
Tokio, Feb. 16.—Viscount Siuzo
Aoki, former Japanese ambassador to
the United States, died to-day.
The news that the famous diplomat
was critically ill became publicly
known only a few hours before his
death occurred, though it was known
he had been ailing for some time past.
Viscount Aoki was the son of a vil
lage doctor, born in 1844 and may be
considered a self-made man. He was
among the first of the Japanese to
seek an education abroad, going to
Germany for this purpose in 1&69.
A few years later he was appointed
secretary to the Japanese legation at
Berlin, and thus he began a career
which eventually led him to be consid
ered the most experienced diplomat
in Japan. He was twice minister for
foreign affairs and besides his am
bassadorship at Washington he sened
his country at London and Berlinfl
While In Berlin he married the
Prussian Baroness Von Rahden, which
was the first instance of a foreign
wopian of rank and title becoming
the wife of a Japanese. Viscount
Aoki's daughter, Hannah, emulated
the example of her distinguished fath
er, marrying a German, Count Alex
ander Von Hatzfeldt-Trachenburg,
whil3 the latter was an attache of the
German legation in Tokio in 1904.
Viscount Aoki was ambassador to
the United States in 1906 and in 1907.
At the time of his death he held the
post of privy councillor.
THROWN FROM SEAT
When the rear wheels of a large
delivery wagon for the Fink Brewery
Company skidded over the tracks at
Second and Walnut- streets to-day,
Edwin L. Coder, the driver, was
thrown from his seat and fell be
tween the horses. But for the timely
assistance of the traffic officer, George
Shoemaker, Coder would have been
run over.
DEAD NEGRO UNIDENTIFIED
Coroner Ecklnger has not been able

equity proceeding instituted by the
Rev. N. D. Vuchevich, the rector.
The rector had been dismissed by the
antl-Vuchevich faction of the church
council, he contended, and he wanted
to know why he can't be retained ac
cording to his contract.
President Judge Kunkel pointed out
that the congregation cannot take the
law into their own hands and advised
that they get together and settle their
differences lawfully. After a confer
ence between counsel it was decided
that a congregational meeting should
be held and the question of dropping
the rector should be settled then. In
the meantime the rector Is to get back
his job and the people of the church
are to be allowed to worship. The
case was continued to March 9.

Musser was one of the best known
business men in Lancaster county and

Best Spenders Are
Not Necessarily Best
People, Says Kunkel
Chancy Robinson, aged 17, was be
fore the Dauphin County Court to
day charged with larceny as clerk. His
case had been continued from last
week. Robinson was detected steal
ing 10 cents from a local department
store and afterward confessed to hav
ing stolen $25. The fact that he be
longed to an exclusive club, had be
come mixed up with loan sharks, etc.,
were reasons given for his escapade.
President Judge Kunkel called at
tention to the fact that "traveling with
the best people' at Robinson's counsel
put it, didn't mean people that were
the best spenders. George R. Lock
wood pleaded to carrying concealed
deadly weapons. Robinson was re-
I leased under suspension and under

Prayer Meeting and March
to Court Room
Special to The Telegraph
i Cliambersburg, Pa., Feb. 16. —Tho
most interesting license court ever held
In Chambersburg began this morning
and will last all week. Of the thirty
six applicants for licenses for old
stands, thirty-four had charges filed
against them, specifying improper
certifiers, selling to minors or drunk
ards. Five leading attorneys, headed
by A. J. W. Hutton and D. lSdward
ljons, represented the remonstrants,
and the remainder of the Franklin
county bar, almost without exception,
was retained by the applicants.
A schedule for the cases was made

at a central church and marched
across tho square to tho courtroom.
The court was crowded to suffocation.
The Hotel Washington case came
first. It was shown that two of the
certifiers had not paid taxes here.
Then ten minors swore to getting
drinks. Three witnesses, who will be
used in nearly every case, are boys of
17 to 19, High School pupils, who
went from bar to bar all over the

Wiping Out Illiteracy
By Associated Press
Washington, D. C., Feb. 10.—Amer
ica's adult illiteracy, described as a
national disgrace, can be wiped out
by the time the next Federal census
is taken if the woork is undertaken
at once, according to l)r. P. P. Clax
ton. United States Commissioner of
Education, in a statement to-day. This
assertion is made In connection with
an appeal by the commissioner for an
appropriation by Cofigress of SIO,OOO
with which to eradicate illiteracy in
this country.
"We now have,'' declared -Dr. Clax
ton, "more than five million illiterate
men and woman and many millions
barely able to read and write. This
illiteracy is a burden and a menace
to state and nation. It costs the
country at least half a billion dollars
every year. An appropriation of $lO,-
000 would make Is possible to begin
the work of wiping out this national
disgrace, and the co-operation of the
States, school officers, and educational
association would he such that after
1920 we would be able to show prac
tically a clean slate."

The most authentic news of
