I- Th Pulton County News McConnellsburg, Pa. THE BEST REAL "p-JLL." ) Now that the summer Is nearly ovev hundreds of you in mei who were graduated InRt June from colleges and tilgh schools are entering the voca tions which they Intend ahall be their ife's work. Some are still seeking suit ble openings. Th young man with out a "pull" limy believe himself handl rvped. He Is llkaly to see Instances where the employer gives first con sideration to his son, his nephew or the son of a friend. But that Is no more than right. The average busl fcess man recognizes the obligations of relationship and friendship, up to the jHjInt where they do not Impair his material Interests and those of his as sociate. Ills nephew and hlH friend's on must make good his own son, inmt of all. His tendency. In fact. Is o be more strict with his son than lie Is with any of his other employes, aavs thg Cleveland Leader. If a young tman thus favored with the first oppor tunity shows that he will he a failure 3u the vork he la doing, he Is re moved. Family lien and friendship "usually will not hold him. Then comes lh chance of the young man who may 2iave felt discouraged because he had -io "pull." Th h'-sf "pull" any young man can have In starting In life Is lionesty, lnd'is'r;. and the determina tion to work for his employer as Though he r. working for himself. He should realize that, In fact, he is working fr himself and that he has a financial IntercM In the business, to the extent of his pay. Such a young '.man Is hound to succeed. A ynr nco a tlpless hotel of the "llrsl clans was opened In Ixmdon. The management "positively announced" that no gratuities to waiters, porters, maids or other employes would be per mitted or suffered. The "experiment," as everybody called It, seemed ex tremely Interesting, but the result was considered douhtrul. Skeptics said: Walt a month or two." The hotel 4s now a year old. The public Is as wired that the no-tip policy has been nforced to the letter, that the es atdlhhment has prospered beyond all xpectatlons, and that there has been tio trouble whatever In getting em ployes and good, fit, well-mannered employes, too. This Is very gratifying eiews Indeed, snys the Chicago Record aierald. Presumably the hotel pays wages and salaries that compare fa vorably with those of hotels where U' "go," or run riot, at all hours of the day and night. Mere prohibitions, where temptations exist, will not eradi cate an abuse. But if everybody 1 satlslHd at the tlpless hotel there Is no reason why Its policy should not succeed permanently.

JOSEPH MAJOROS ENLISTED AS MARINE John J. Majoros, Who Iooted and Wrecked the arodny Hank, of Scranton, Pa., Over a Year Ago, Had Been Trailed Around the World Hy Secret Service Men Of Bonding Company Itefore Capture At CharlcNtoii, S. C. Scranton, Pa. ( Special ) . John Joseph Majoros, the absconding banker, who looted and wrecked the Narodny Bank of" Scranton, Pa., was arrested on the deck of the battle ship Texas In Charleston harbor by Chief of Police Bayl. of Charleston, and secret service men of the Fidelity and Deposit Company of Maryland. Majoros wore the uniform of a Unit ed States marine, in which corps he enlisted in his last desperate effort to shake off his pursuers. The whirlwind chase after Majoros, was, In its spectacular features, one of the most thrilling and dramatic pursuits of a rrlnilnal that has ever taken place in this country. The ar rest of Majoros was lue more to the determination of the Fidelity and De posit Company of Maryland to "get him than to any other cause. The Fidelity and DepoBlt Company were on MajoroB bond, and when he looted the Narodny Bank, over a year ago, this company was compelled to make good his thefts. They then com menced a chase after Majoros which never fagged for an instant; and which extended completely around the world. The secret service men of the Fi delity Company were on his track within four days after he had wiped the dust of Scranton from his boots. They followed him to Buffalo and Toronto, where he doubled on them and slipped back to Johnstown, Pa., while the detectives were combing the Canadian seaports. Majoros then darted and squirmed In and out among the cities of the Great Lakes and Anally succeeded In completely throwing off his rursuers by quietly enlisting in the I'nited States Navy When the secret service men of the Fidelity and Deposit Company again picked up the thread of the chase Majoros was on the seas. They tol lowed him to Auckland, New Zea land: Liverpool and Pensacola, Fla., where they again lost hlra by the ex tensive re-assignment of thousands of sailors and marines to the various ships. During the last two months prac tically all of the finest fighting ships of the United States Navy have been at battle practice in- the Atlantic Ocean, but on what ship Majoros was stationed was unknown to his pur suers, and inasmuch as the fighting aggregate of all the vessels coast! tuted more than 14.000 men, there was nothing left for the detectives to do but tackle the drudgery of exam Ining the names and descriptions of every sailor in the United States Navy as recorded In the Navigation Bureau in Washington. When the battle practice having been finished the warships srattered for various ports, the detectives also scattered for the various cities which were the destination of the dispersing war ves-sels. A week ago, however, by a process of elimination, the secret service men of the Fidelity Company were prac tically certain' that somewhere among the sailormen and marines of the bat tleship Texas Majoros would he found. The chief of police of Charleston was thereupon communl cated with, and armed with a war rant and an Indictment from the Dis trict Attorney's office st Scranton, he went on board the battleship, accom panted by the secret service men who had chased Majoros around the world. The fighting force of the vessel was paraded and Majoros was Immediately spotted, standing like a statue in the ranks of the marines The long and spectacular chase was over, and as the detectives pointed out their man, Majoros, without say lng a word, collapsed and fell to the deck, his rifle clattering down beside bim.

Bradstreet's says: "Trade is irregular and still Uckd nap, but the better undertone noui last week has become more wide! disseminated. This despite bolidaj. which have tended to limit the i gregate volume of business don. Causes for the improved feeling h been the official confirmation by th! Government crop reporting service ol tbe trade estimates of bumper yielaj of corn and oats and larger than ex. pected yields of wheat, the libera marketing of crops, more eBpeclalli cereals, live stock and cotton, th advent of cooler, settled weather some sections and the rather bu ter tone of the securities market Improvement, as a whole, u not marked and tbe conservatism earllei noted is still manifest in small nj frequent rather than large buying.

The jury was out just thirty min utes. When it returned and announc ed that it had found the defendant guilty. Lord Chief Justice Alverstone asked the physician if he had any thing to say. Crippen replied in a low voice: "I still protest my inno cence." The Chief Justice then donned th6 black cap that had rested near him throughout the trial, and pronounced the sentence of death. Addressing the condemned man. Lord Alverstone said: "You have been convicted on evidence which can leave no doubt in the mind of any reasonable man that you cruelly mur dered your wife and then mutilated her, body. "I advise you to entertain no hope that you will escape the consequences of your crime. I Implore you to make your peace with Almighty God." There is the strongest prejudice in England against executing a man on purely circumstantial evidence, and an incident at the clone of Crlppen's trial has .caused the Impression that the jury may have recommended a life sentence. After Crippen was sen tenced to death the foreman of the jury handed to the Lord Chief Justice a note, after looking at which, the justice said: "That shall be forwarded to thai proper quarter." The "proper quarter' might mean the Home Secretary, who has juris diction In such matters. The juror refused to discuss the Incident. Wholesale Markets MOTHER AXD SOX KILLED.
