Argue Over Relative Value
of Birch and Pear Switches
Judge McCarrell and Attorney Wickersham Tell How They
"Got Theirs" Long Years Ago
When Additional Law Judge McCar
rell was.a very little boy he always got
his lickings with a lurch switch.
When Assistant District Attorney
Frank B. Wickersham was a lad he
always got his with a pear switch.
This developed this morning in June
juvenile sessions during a brief com
parison of reminiscent notes recalled
by the appearance of Edward Bell,
colored, aged 12. Edward was one of
thirty odd small defendants who were
heard during the day.
Edward was charged with staying
out too late o' nights, sleeping in a
market wagon and stealing a bicycle.
He admitted to the theft. He declared
he remained out because he feared
he'd get a lickin'. Edward's memory
became more vivid as he talked; he
blubbered. As he talked his tears
flowed the more freely. To a question
of Judge McCarrell ne admitted that
he had been whipped with a strap.
"What kind of a strap?"
"Oh, a regular strap!"
Pennsy Has Way to
Lop 10 Per Cent Off
the Office Payroll
Special to The Telegraph
Philadelphia, June 19.—As a direct
result of the decrease in freight ton
nage and passenger traffic and in line
with the policy of retrenchment In
augurated last winter, the Pennsyl
vania Railroad has evolved a new
scheme of saving whereby It is expect
ed that 10 per cent, will be lopped off
the total payroll of the office depart
ments here. I
Instead of laying off a certain num
ber of office employes during the sum
mer, as has been done in previous
years, the management decided to di
vide the force of each department
into squads and to lay off the mem
bers of each group in turn for three
or four days each month. The plan
has caused little dissatisfaction
among the employes, as all agree that
losing three days' pay a month is bet
ter than being laid off altogether.
Every employe losing one-tenth of
his month's salary makes a 10 per
cent, cut In the total pay-roll, and as
the scheme has gone into effect all
over the system, the saving will be
big. About 600 clerks in the account
ing, purchasing, auditing and allied
departments in Broad Street Station
land other offices here will be affected.
"Well," mused Judge McCarrell, "a
little strap oil now and then isn't bad
for a boy."
"You're right, Your Honor," inter
posed Mr. Wickersham. "I've tried it
myself—"
"Ever had it tries upon you?" in
quired the court. Then the discussion
was on.
"No," said the assistant district at
torney, "as I remember it, I always
got mine with a pear switch. A switch
cut from a pear tree in the yard."
"Mine was always dealt with a birch
switch," offered the court. "That's
better than a pear switch. It's—ah—■
heavier and more staple—"
"One can get a good stout switch
ing from a pear switch, though. Your
honor," defended Mr. Wickersham.
"Um—well, it may depend on the
tree."
"Of course," admitted Mr. Wicker
sham, "I think the question of con
vience entered into the case. The pear
tree stood just outside the kitchen
door—close at hand."
Two Eggs Burn and
Hundreds Rush to Scene
An old-fashioned spring lock, a hot
stove, a pan full of eggs and one Are
company made up a one-act comedy at
the homo of Joslah Whisler, 1502 Wal
nut fftreet, last evening. The awt was
full of thrills and attracted hundreds of
people.
Mrs. Whisler was preparing the sup
per. Fried eggs was to be one of tho
courses. While the eggs were cooking
Mrs. Whisler went to the front door to
look for her husband. The door blew
shut. On the door was a spring lock
and Mrs. Whisler was outside without
a key.
While Mrs. Whisler was en-route to
the rear of the home to effect an en
trance. smoke came out of the windows.
A telephone call was Bent to the Mt.
Pleasant Company, and eight Bremen
responded with the chemical wagon-
There was no fire. The eggs were
burned to a crisp.
