FELL INTO ASH PIT Benjamin Haupt, 640 Hamilton street, a Pennsylvania Railroad em ploye, suffered a severe scalp lacer ation yesterday when he fell in an ash pit at the Enola yards. | Little Talks by Beatrice Fairfax In a tiny pool You could jump over 1 saw reflected All of the sky. 1 wondered: How Should one rightly measure This lovely water; By the Earth that holds it? By the Heaven it holds? How shall we measure all that we see and hear and experience by the Earth that holds it, by the Heaven it holds? There is always more than one interpretation of each least experi ence of every day. And we gen erally have our choice as to con clusions. We don't have to read good or evil out of a thing, be cause we are free to read in what we like. It's all a matter of view point. Wait a minute before vou start disagreeing with me. Jennie is en gaged to Max and she is seen at a dance with a man no one of hei crowd knows. Max is away on a trip. How can people help feeling that Jennie is a pretty lax and dis loyal sweetheart? That judgment on circumstan tial evidence might be read this way instead: "Jennie is a loyal sweetheart. Max is away. If she comes to a dance and devotes herself to a stranger there has to be a good reason. Perhaps that man is a relative. Perhaps he's a friend of Max and she's been asked to be nice to him." The lirst judgment is in terms of the earth that holds us all. The second is based on a belief in the heaven which flowers in our own hearts. Our point of view tells more than we realize about our own selves. Cynicism comes more from what we know about ourselves than from what we know about life. If you would never und?r any circumstances do a dishonest and disloyal thing, how can you bo thinking so hard of dishonesty and disloyalty that everything you see anyone else do looks to you like a manifestation of those ugly quali ties? When you look into a mirror, you see vourself. Life's a big mirror. It reflects | to you your own ideas, your own j attitudes, your own self. > Vou can't see out of eyes other ' than you own. Vou cun't see ex cept from the place where you hup pen to stand. The angle you get on tlui gs has to be your angle. Nobody forces you to stand where you do. or to think as you do. That's your own to choose and ' make. : Ho when you begin interpreting things, it lias to ire from your -view ! point, on a basis of your own I knowledge and reactions to life j And charity or malice are yours to ' choose.

Dec. 5. Fuel Ad ministrator Garfield returned to Wash ington to-day from Williamstown, Mass., to take personal charge of the coal sit uation. After a conference with As sistant Attorney General Ames, he went to the White House to attend the cab inet meeting.

Oliver Elected to Council [Special to the Telegraph] Pittsburgh, Pa., Dec. 5. The Pittsburgh city council to-day elect ed Augustus K. Oliver, son of the late Senator George T. Oliver, to fill the vacancy in the city council caused by the death of Enoch Ruuh. The election of Mr. Oliver is a clean knockout for the Babcock- Leslie forces, who endeavored to elect John D. Barbour, president of the Pittsburgh Stock Exchange. The vote was 5 to 4. Mayor Babcock personally backed Mr. Barbour when the city council met to fill the va cancy. The selection of Mr. Oliver gives control of the council of the second city in the State to the Republican forces led by George S. Oliver. The new councilman is vice-president of the Newspaper Printing Co., which publishes the Gazette-Times and Chronicle-Telegraph. Throughout the war he was very active in vari ous civilian works and was chair man of the Pittsburgh Chapter of the Red Cross, which lie still holds.

HARRIBBfQ.PA. U BEARY URGING ENLISTMENTS Issues Statement in Regard to Expiration of the One Year Period in January Adjutant General Frank D. Beary, who returned to-day from Wash ington where he discussed National Guard lpattors with officials of the Militia Bureau, said that the period for voluntary enlistment of men who have been in the service and who desire to maintain- continuity will expire on January 11. —"I strongly advise all men who have been hon orably discharged and who desire to join the new Guard to enlist before January 11. officers in commis sion from the Stute are authorized to administer oaths. Enlistments will be for a year from the date given whether the unit has been rec ognized or not," said he. General Beary communicated with Major General W. G. Price regarding this matter and the general will call at tention of regimental commanders to the situation. The Adjutant General announced that civilian physicians will be au thorized to examine men for enlist ment in the Guard in places where there are no army doctors. Tlie Public Service Commission to day announced that it had dis missed the complaint of the United Business Men's Association of Phil adelphia against the Bell Telephone Company. llcputy Attorney General 11. J. My- ! ors to-day informed Banking Com-1 missioner John S. Fisher in an opin- | ion that banks incorporated under 1 the act of 1876 and supplements! "have no authority whatever to loan j their funds on the security of second j mortgages or any other liens on in- I cumbered real estate." He adds "a j hank that loans money on a promts- | sory note and accepts as additional [ collateral security to said note, at j the time the loan is made, a mort- ! gage which is a second lien on real | estate, practices a subterfuge to | evade the clear and distinct pro visions of the law and the fact that such banks are nowhere prohibited by act of assembly from loaning ■ money in this way does not empower them to do so by implication." ! Commissioners John S. Rilling and John W. Reed sat to-day to hear the complaints against the grade cross- < ing on the Pennsylvania railroad near Gordonville. In the complaint of the State Highway Department 1 against the Paradtse bridge over the , Pennsylvania railroad on the Lin- ! coin highway tlie hearing was ad- j journed until December 23 when ; plans will be submitted and costs 1 apportioned.
