PASIS/'CITY OF LIGHT," IS
NOW SHROUDED IN I,LOOM
Paris, Jan. 20.—Last night Paris
definitely abandoned its title of "The
City of Ldght," and assumed a shroud
of mourning. According to police regu
lations, emphasized by official visits to
■ll business houses, no unshuttered or
uncurtained windows are allowed to
give light, no cafes or shops may
brij-hteu the sidewalk with gas or elec
txk' radiance. Even windows overlook
ing courtyards niik«t be shaded, while
the west boirlovard pavements reflect
but faintly a few oociyitonal lamps.
The public takes the innovation
calmly. Since the beginning of the war
Paris has been rather contemptuous
of Zeppelins. Consequently no one
teems alarmed by the latest measures,
which are considered simply precaution
ary, uninspired •by definite official
knowledge regarding contemplated at
tacks.
The "Temps" prints a letter by
4'Esteournelles do Constant, saying:
' f VJi nve read in the press obscure
•ccounuNif a meeting at Berne held by
a committee of peace societies. It is in
teresting to note that none of our com
patriots took part, while if the Belgian
Senator, La Fontains, presided, it was
certainly to combat, their object, as he
regretted their initiative."
STOKER'S EFFORTS WON
THE CHftSECFFFALKLaNOS
London, Jan. 20.—Captain J. P. Al
len, of the cruiser Kent, which* sank
the German cruiser Nurnberg off the
l'alkland Islands, describes in a letter
to a friend how the Kent chased, en
gaged and sank the Nurnberg. lie says.
"It was a single ship action, as there
was no other ship in sight at the time.
The chase began about nooy and the
action at 5 p. m. After a sharp engage
ment, in which the Kent was struck by
no fewer then 36 of the enemy's shells,
the Nurnberg sank at 7.26 p. m.
"The Nurnberg was a faster -hip
than the Kent, but I appealed to the
engineers and stokers to do ail in their
power to catch her. and finally they
responded to my appeal. The Kent went
taster and faster, until she was mak
iug 25 knots, more thc:n a knot faster
than she had ever gone before.
"We came nearer and nearer, until
we got the Nurnberg within range oi
our .guns. Soon our shells began fail
ing thick apd fast around her and she
was struck many times, until at last
she WJS in flames. The enemy continu
ed tiring their guus until the ship was
sinking and as she disappeared below
the surface some of the brave men on
her quarterdeck were waving German
flags.''
The captain s letter expresses regret
that he was able to save only twelve
of the Nurnberg's crew, owiii'j to the
heavy seas and ice cold water.
The Nurnberg was rated at 23.a
knots and the Kent at 21.7 knots. The
Kent surpassed the German ship in
armament, having 14 six-inch guns. The
Nurnberg had 10 four-inch.

FINDS WIFE'S BODY IN CHEST
Woman Missing Since Monday, Police
of itttsburgh Say Case Has Some
Queer Angle*
Pittsburgh, Jan. 20. —Huddled in s
crouching posture, the body of Mrs.
Mionie Hunter, 39 years old, miesin®
since Monday afternoon was found by
her husband, Frank A. Hunter, at noon
yesterday, when he ilifted the lid of a
cedar chMt in their home at 5266 Hil
mes 6tTeet. Dr. J. O. Donaldson, who
was summoned, said the woman had
been dead about twenty hours. Hunter
and his son had slept near the chest
Monday niglit without a suspicion as
to its contents. According to the re
port of l>esToty Coroner John Orer, Mrs.
Hunter's death was caused by suffoca
tion.
She was last seen alive at 4 o'clock
Monday afternoon by Mrs. E. J. Um
stead, a neighbor, who talked with her
iu the Hunter home. Frank A. HunteT,
Jr., a son. returned from school shortly
after 4 o'clock and found the house
empty. Hunter, who is general manager
and .part owner of the Hunter Saw
and Machine Company, returning home
at 9 o'clock, was told bv his son of
Mrs. Hunter's- absence. Supposing she
had gone to a social| gathering or was
visiting friends, he went to bed.
Yesterday morning Hunter on awak
ening found that his wife was not. at
home. Thirikinij that if she had gone
out she probably would have taken her
furs with her, Hunter went upstairs to
the bedroom of his son where the cedar
chest was kept, lifted the lid and found
the body of his wife fully dressed, face
downward and resting on the knees.
Dr. Donaldson said Mrs. Hunter had
died of suffocation and that from all
appearance the death was accidental.
He i-a id:
"Mrs. Huntor had a rheumatic heart
and I frequently had been called to
treat her for this trouble. It appeared
to me as thoing'h she had been stricken
with heart trouble and fallen into the
chest."
The chest is about four feet long,
two feet wide and about three feet
deep and has a heavy lid. Mrs. Hunt
er's furs were in the chest.
Despite the statement given by Dr.
Donaldson, the police are working on
the case, which they say has some queer
angles. The body when found was
doubled up in the cedar chest in a posi
tion very difficult for a person to as
sume without aid. Her height was b
feet 6 inches. The police admit that
mysterious circumstances surround Mrs.
Hunter's death, but offer no solution
of the case.

THE CONTROL OF EDUCATION
County Should Have Supervision to En
sure Improvement in the
Bnral Schools
Washington, D. C., Jan. 20.—Except
for New England, where the township
plan works admirably, county control
of education is recommended by tlw
United States Bureau of Education as
an important factor in the improvement
of rural schools.
According to A. C. Monahan, author
of a bulletin just issued, the county is
the unit of supervision in at least 39
States of the I'nion, anil some form of
county control of schools is now found
in IS States. Comparing county con
trol with dlistrict and township control,
the "county unit seems to have most to
commend it," says the bulletin, al
though the district unit is still the
most common form of control for tine
country nt large. Tho district unit rf
organization is in practice in 2S States.
Mr. Monahan's investigation shows
that county control has been adopted by
most of the Southern States, while the
district is the unit of organization in
most of the States west of the Missis
sippi river.
In- the New England States, where
cities and incorporated towns are in
cluded in the township, and where the
township is the unit of local taxation
and local government in nearly all civil
affairs, "township control has proved
very siatisfactorv.''
Where conditions are not exception
al, as in Nwv England, Mr. Monahan
liniils that county control recommends
itself because it is already the unit of
supervision in most of the States; it
gives the schools better support bP giv
ing the entire county the benefit of
taxes paid by corporations such as rail
roads; it gives the schools better teach
ers with better salaries, yet the schools
are run more economically; it removes
the school from unwiso local influences
and gives opportunity for the selection
of teachers from a wider range and
upon their merits; it injects business
into the management of the schools
"with no axes to grind, no favorites to
reward, a small board for all schools of
tho county provides the best possible
schools for all the children."
