1(1 FILM REVEALS
WIFE WHO DESERTED
Womaß, Long Sought by Cincin
nati Husband, Shown as
Nurse in France
Special to The Teligrefh
Cincinnati, Ohio, March 13. Ever
since A. A. Campbell came here from
New York a year ago to become the
efficiency engineer of the Union Gas
and Electric Company, one of the
main problems of the officials and em
ployes of the company and of the out
side businessmen with whom he came
in contact has been to "make Camp
bell out."
Occasionally a little gossip about a
"woman in the case" and about "stay
ing in his room alone with a picture"
would crop out, but the "big boss"
down at the gas works killed all thid
with the sledge-hammer edict, "Camp
bell's too good a businessman for any
of that tommy-rot."
Apparently such gossip as there was
■ inanated from the servants at Camp
bell's hotel. So. naturally, it was a
hotel servant who went to Campbell,
not without some embarrassment, the
other day and stammered out: "Say, 1
saw her in a war moving picture the
other day."
"Saw who?" he thundered.
"Well, that woman whose picture
you've got on your dresser," said the
. crvant rather crossly.
Jamming on his hat, Campbell rush
••d for the door apd took the lirst taxi
for the So-and-So Theater.
"No; the war pictures ure over." the
door flunkey told htm.
The taxi took Campbell to the dis
trict headquarters ofhee of the Pathe
W'ccklj Kilui Exchange. "Just sent
1 he war reels off by train." he learned
there. Then he called for the man
ager. Fifteen minutes later, with
Campbell at his elbow, the manager
was dictating a telegram for the im
mediate return of the war reel.
That night, in the little studio of the
Pathe office, they showed just one flash
«>f the "Ked Cross Nurses Landing at
Havre." It lasted perhaps 60 seconds.
At the very end. just as the last nurse
in the group started down the gang
plank. Campbell leaped from his chair
;>nd seized the manager's hand wildly
and shouted, "It is!"
It was Campbell's wife. A year agi>.
when he came to Cincinnati, she had
lefuscd to "leave the East." She seem
ed to take his departure as a personal
slight. She neglected his letters.
Finally she wrote him that she was
not going to answer any more of them.
Last night Campbell was telegraph
ing to his brother ill New York, and
to his wife's relatives in the East, and
t.ving through the Red Cross to rind
i means of reaching Mrs. Campbell by
cable. "Let her stick at her work, if
she wants to," he said. "She's a grad
uate of the Middletown. Conn.. Train
ing School, and a splendid nurse, and
she loves it. P.ut when it's over. I
want her to come back to me in Cin
cinnati, and I want her to know" it
right now."

NEW RATE UNJUST

- Chairman Dissents
p I
Specicl to The Telttrafh
■j Washington, D. C„ March 13.—The;
J; Interstate Commerce Commission yes- 1
-1 terday refused to grant an increase of i
j 7 cents a ton in the rates for trans- j •
j portation of bituminous coal from 1 \
\ mines in Pennsylvania. Maryland and 1
• I West Virginia to Philadelphia. Wil
' | mington and Baltimore for trans
• j shipment to points inside the Capes of
. j Delaware and Chesapeake Bays. The i
"! railroads asking for the increase were -
- | the Pennsylvania, Baltimore and Ohio.
" New York Central and Philadelphia j ;
and Reading.
»j Protests against the increase were [ 1
• made by a number of eastern firms. i
i The present rate to Philadelphia is
, $1.60 a ton for track delivery: to i
: Greenwich piers it is 51.35. For de-i '
I livery inside the Capes the rate is•
1 5i.33, and it was proposed to increase '
this rate to $1.12.
Commissioner Meyer rendered the ; 1
• decision. He declared that an increase <
• in the rates would be unjust to the <
dealers using the track service in i
■ Philadelphia, Wilmington and Balti- 1
. more. He said if rail carriers be per- ,
mit ted to establish rates in connection i
: with water carriers upon a basis which i
I would equalize shippers at various '
points along the waterway, they would '
■ absorb the benefit which should ac- (
.' crue to the public in the lower cost of j ,
I water transportation.
• i Chairman Harlan dissented from
i this view, saying that "the respondents •
• i have fully justified the increase in | ,
• I rates proposed by them in the tariff.
| which, under the majority report, they t
> j are now required to cancel." i,

Well, here they are. the eight pret
ty girls who are wondering how close
ly you can come to estimating their
ages.
They are Adele and Eleanor and
Gfrace and Elsie and Adelaide and
Gertrude and Monica and Helen—an
octette of bright-eyed beauties, who
are members of the Sophye Barnard-
Lou Anger Musical Comedy "Safety
First," to be presented at the Orpheum
next week.
How old do you think they are?
Oddly enough there isn't an Ann in
the whole group, so we can't ask the
question. "How old is Ann?" But we
do ask "How old is Adele?" "How old
is Eleanor?" "How old is—" well,
what do vou suppose is the combined
age of the entire eight?
It isn't often that you can get a girl
to acknowledge her age. but every one
of these "Safety First" girls has prom
ised to help'the Telegraph's Pretty Girl
Editor by making an affidavit to the
very number of years, months, weeks
and days (hat they have decorated this
happy sphere.
And lxiok at the Prize!
A whole box for any night or after
noon this week at the Orpheum The
ater is going to be awarded to the per
son who sends in the nearest estimate
to the combined ages of these girls.
Four seats will go as second prize and
two seats as third.
"Safety First"
"Safety First" is a good slogan in
connection with this contest, for while
all answers must be in the hands of
the Pretty Girl Editor of the Telegraph
before 5 p. m. on Monday—when in
the presence of these young women,
who will assemble in the Telegraph's
editorial rooms the estimates will he
opened and prizes awarded—at the
same time it will pay you to use a lit
tle "safety first" and look carefully
into each girl's face—that is in the
plctv%-e.
The young women pictured here take
the parts of moving picture actresses
in the studio of the Safety First Mov
ing Picture Company. They are known
on the stage as Miss Imp. Miss Pathe.
Miss Lubin, Miss Essanay. Miss Key
stone. Misi Biograph, Miss Paramount
and Miss Vitagraph.
Remember the Warning
There are also eight other players
In the cast of "Safety First." including
Lou Anger, the popular German mono
logist, and Sophye Barnard, whose
sweet voice has been heard and en
joyed at the Orpheum before.
Little Musical Comedy Stuff
"Safety First" is a musical comedy.
The fact that Sophye Barnard is in the
cast offers pretty good security that
the musical part will be taken care of.
and so far a- the comedy end is con
cerned. Lou Anger's name is synomym
ous with laughter, and there arc oth
er singers and other dancers who will
help the good work along.
But don't pay any more attention
to this dry reading matter, just con
line your glances to the pretty faces
that are here staring at you and send
your estimate of their combined ages
to the Pretty Girl' Editor, care of the
Telegraph.

ACCENTS MOUNT
RICH IN THE STATE
State Efforts to Ascertain Number
Show That Over 50,000
Occurred Last Year
in an effort to secure figures on the
11 imber of accidents which occurred in
the industries of Pennsylvania the
State Department of Labor and ludus
try has secured in co-operation with
the eDpartmcnt of Mines and Public
Service commission data showing 53,-
113 mishaps of various kinds last year.
This is the result of the first State wide
survey and covers the whole of 1914.
The statement issued says: "The
total number of accidents reported to
the Department of Labor and Industry
during the year was 38,126, the acci
dents reported by the Department of
Mines and Public Service Commission
bringing the total up to 53.113. This
number, though large, cannot be con
sidered the sum of all accidents that
occur in out State since the accidents
reported to the Department of Labo:
and Industry are only those occurring
in industrial establishments. There
is also a rule that accidents occasion
ing a loss of less than two days' work
need not be reported.
Details of reports show that 20,33 ft
accidents were in hand labor, chiefly
hurts from tools or material; 4,1 TS
from falls of various kinds; 2,836 from
contact with machinery in motion and
2,44 4 from burns.
In the list of those injured were 37,
904 males, of whom 3T7 were fatally
hurt and 222 females, 2 fatally hurt.
To Inspect "Hardscrabble"
Location For Proposed City
Boathouse Next Wednesday
Tentative inspection of the proposed
| municipal boathouse site at "Hard
scrabble" will be made by some of the
I city commissioners anil several mem*
|bers of the City Planning commission
next week, probably Wednesday, ac
cording to Commissioner H. F. Bow
man.
Commissioners Bowman has been
preparing some data on the subject of
constructing a 200-capacity concrete
single story structure with ample ac
commodations for 600 canoes and
motorboats. the building to be put tip
by the city and leased for a period of
three or five years to a concessionaire.
By this method the rentals for boats
could be out at least In half, Mr. Bow
man thinks. The purpose of Wednes
day's inspection, according to Mr.
Bowman, is to get the Planning Com
mission's view on the subject in or
der that the whole question may bo
put up to Council at an early date.
Several inspections of the place have
been made by Commissioners Bowman,
Lynch and Taylor. •
Commissioner. M. Harvey Taylor,
superintendent of parks, who had also
the "Hardscrabble" site in mind along
with a similar structure on the river
front between Mulberry and Market
streets for the boatmen in the lower
section of the city, wanted to build
a house that could be made entirely
free for canoeists but operated and
maintained by the city. An amend
ment to the Clark act permitting
municipalities to take this step is now
[pending in the Legislature.

TRAINMEN CHARGE
UNFAIR METHODS
Legislative Committee Alleges In
justice in Distribution of Full
Crew Literature
Trainmen legislative representatives
charge railroad officials with unfair
ness in a statement issued to-day. The
claim is made by tjie Brotherhood men
that the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany is showing discrimination in its
own interests in permitting the distri
bution of circulars on passenger trains,
The statement in part follows:
"The unfairness and injustice of the
campaign of tlie railroad managers are
more fully revealed in a correspond
ence which recently passed between
S. K. Tamer, chairman of the Penn
sylvania state legislative board of the
Order <>f Railway Conductors, and R.
L». O'Donnnll. chirman of the execu
tive committee of the associated rail
roads, lighting the law.
"While, pretending to be absolutely
fair to the friends of the law and
boasting that every facility had been
given them to present their case, it
was discovered that the literature ot
the asHocia,ted railroads was being
freely distributed upon trains running
into Harrisburg by employes of the
railroad co.mpany. Thereupon Mr.
Tamer asked Mr. G'Donnell for the
similar right for the literature of the
trainmen to lie distributed, not at thr
expense of the associated railroads,
but at the cost of the Brotherhoods.
It was a reasonable request. It might
have been presented as a Just de
mand."
