Nine Masked Bandits
Gets3 t oooFrom 20Men
In Sensational Foray
NEW YORK.—Nine masked ban
dits broke- into the rooms of the
East Rutherford Social club, at 131
Clinton place, Rutherford, N. J., re
cently, held up twenty men and, aft
er using their pistols and knives
freely, escaped with $3,000 in money
and jewelry. Before departing the
robbers beat the club members'into
insensibility with the butts of their
guns, stabbed one in the back and
shot another in the head. Neither of
the latter two is expected to live.
The hold-up took place about 2
o’clock yesterday morning when the
members of the club were seated
around tables in a back room of the
clubhouse. The bandits had previous
ly cut all the telephone wires leading
into the place. When the men with
in refused to respond to their knock
ing thev broke down the doors. The
members, cowed by the display of re
volvers and knives, were lined up
against a wall and their pockets ran
sacked by several of the robbers.
Bandits Jest With Victims
The victims evidently were known
to some of the bandits, who called
them by name as- they went through
their pockets and jested with them
on various personal affairs. To fur
ther cover up their identity the
thieves used a system of numerals by
which they were designated in the
orders of their leader.
Arthur Raabe, of Carlstadt, one of
the club members, rushed to the tele
phone to summon help. One of the
bandits made a lunge at Raabe and
stabbed him in the back. It is be
lieved his lung was pierced by the
knife. He will probably die.

another club member, attempted to
go to the aid of Raabe, but had
walked less than three steps when
another of the gangsters calmly took
aim and fired at him. The bullet,
after cutting its way for four inches
along the skull, lodged at the base
of the brain.
Surgeons who operated on Silver
stein marveled at his miraculous es
cape from instant death, but said he
probably would not recover.
Ten other members of the club
then started after the gunmen, but
their lack of weapons made them
easy prey for the thieves. Wielding
their revolvers freely, they succeeded
in knocking each man unconscious.
Reaving with- a threat to come back
and kill all of them if they made a
sound, the hold-up men retreated to
an automobile, the engine of -which
was kept going at top speed and at
the wheel of which sat a masked
chauffeur. As soon as they sped
away, however, a general alarm was
sent out and the police were inform
ed that the bandit car had gone in
tha direction Newark.
- Fire on Police
At about 3:30 o’clock a high-pow
ered machine speeded into Defat
wanna, the police of which place had
been guarding the roads. They order
ed the driver of the car to stop, but
instead he put on more power and
other occupants of the car fired a
volley at the officers. Returning the
fire, an attempt was made to punc
ture the tires and thus stop the car,
but the officers were unsuccessful
and the car sped out of sight, the
men still firing.
Less than ten minutes later a po
lice alarm giving the car’s descrip
tion was, flashed to every town in
New Jersey and motorcycle police
men set out to capture it.
The police have accurate descrip
tions of the bandits.

WHAT WINS?
Health? IFealth? Beauty?
A College Professor and Three Famous Stage Actresses Give Their Views
on the Question
NEW YORK.—Health is the most important quality in a young man or woman seeking a
mate. Next comes beauty, and last wealth.
These are the results of a ballot taken by Dr. Rudolph M. Binder, professor of sociology and
eugenics at New York university, among his young men and women students. The students were
asked whether they would choose as the most desirably requisite of a wife or husband health,
wealth or beauty, it being fcken for granted that the- element of love already was present.
The young women voted 48 in favor of health, 15 in favor of beauty and 12 for wealth. The
young men’s answers showed 79 for health, 76 for beauty and 26 for wealth. The answers indi
cate that American young men and women care less for wealth in a life partner than for other quali
ties. \

BEAUTY
Says
MITZI
The ‘‘Penniless Princess in
“Lady Billy”
When I say that women are at
tracted by good looks in man, just
as certainly as men are attracted to
beauty in woman, I do not mean that
the same kind of “beauty” must be
possessed by each.
Women are attracted by beauty
in men. Why Is it that all heroes
are good looking? Because they are
the novelists’ and playwrights’ ideal
izations of what women desire in
man. The heroes of romance are
tall, manly, broad-shouldered, clear
eyed, good complexioned specimens.
There is a reason. That is the type
that women —taken on the average—
want for their mates.
Women do not like “effeminate”
men, any more than men like “mas
culine” women. It is not j.ecessary
for a man to be effeminate in order
to be handsome. Clear-cut features,
good figure, correct carriage, strong
muscles, good blood —these are
things make for beauty in
man, and they show that their owner
belongs to a good strain of the hu
man family. It is natural that wom
an should be attracted by these
points. They mean usually that the
accompanying qualities of mind and
heart are possessed by her future
husband.
Every woman wants to "show off”
her husband after she has him. If
he is not worth showing, what good
is he?
Shield of “Maine”
Melted for Junk
BANGOR, Me.—Parts of the
shield of the old battleship Maine,
given to this city after the ward
ship was raised from the bottom
of Havana Harbor, have been
stolen and melted for junk at a
local foundry, it was discovered
< here.
About forty pounds of metal,
chipped from the scroll work of
the shield, had been put through
the melting pot before the theft
was learned. The police are
searching for a city employe who
has disappeared.
The relic of the Maine had been
in storage awaiting decision as
to the most fitting place for its
display.

HEALTH
Says
FLORENCE REED
Starring in “The Mirrage”
The woman of today Is paying
more attention to the realities of life
than ever before. Men Who come a
wooing must present substantial
qualities to win women’s love. The
days are gone by when a man can
go into the market, so to speak, and
purchase himself a wife. ’ Among
the qualities which the modern wom
an demands in her life mate, none
is so important, I think, as health.
By that I do not mean that a man
must be able to compete in the
Olympic games or that he must be
a giant in strength. I mean that
the woman who looks ahead, who
visualizzes herself as the most de
mother, will opnsider as the most de
sirable quality in her future hub
band, a good, clean ancestry, which
has been kept clean by the man she
is to marry.

New York Begins “Dial” System
NEW YORK. —First steps in transforming New York’s vast
telephone system from the present familiar system with the use
of feminine operators into the strictly mechanical dial system
have been taken, J. S. McCulloch, vice president of the New York
Telephone compan, announced today.
The transition has been begun in three exchanges—the
Pennsylvania, the Academy and the Lispenard.
Under the plan outlined by Mr. McCulloch, the change will
not come at once. Instead, from two to twelve years will be
needed finally to displace the familiar “number, please,” with
the numbered dial at the base of thes telephone with which the
subscriber will connect up his own number.
The success of the dial system in smaller exchanges " lias
caused the New York company, with its 868,000 telephones, to
decide to make the change.
“The transformation will not be so sudden that the sub
scribers will be confused by the mechanical system,” explained
Mr. McCulloch. “We believe that the first three exchanges using
the system exclusively will be in operation by next spring.”
Mr. McCulloch quoted statistics which show the New York
telephone system to be larger than the Paris system. An aver
age of 4,500,000 calls are made each day, he said.

MARGARET MOWER
Starring in “Welcomp
Stranger”
Marriage casts a ntaglc spell on
the young—man and woman alike—■
and to each one his mate-to-be pos
sesses all the ideal qualities, health,
wealth, beauty, devotion, affection
and a million trtore.
But women in this day and age
are realizing more and more that
it Is impossible to “live on love.”
The young girl who would be hap
pily married does well, In addition
to admiring the charm of her intend
ed husband, to look well into the
question o- his ability to make a
living for two —or three or more.
The man who has accumulated some
thing of! this world’s goods has prov
ed his ability to care for a wife and
family. He may possess all other
desirable characteristics, but if he is
an economic failure —if he has not
accumulated some wealth —he has
failed in the first essential of a hus
band —his duty to provide for his
family. A woman should not marry
for wealth alone; but she certainly
should not “fall in love,” heedless of
consequer tes and regardless of the
ability of her future life partner to
care for her properly.
Look at his face, yes, look at his
ancestry, yes; but be sure to look
at his bank account, too!
Perfume Cocktails
Barred at Prison
OSSINING, N. Y.—Bay rum,
perfume, toilet water and hair
.tonics have’ been barred from
Sing Sing, either in the barber
shop or elsewhere within the pris
on walls. The prison authorities
have no objection to the use of
these luxuries if the prisoners can
afford to buy them, but it has
come to the attention of Warden
Lawes that toilet articles are not
necessarily used for tonsorial pur
poses.
Some prisoners, it is alleged,
have been able to mix an effective
and inspiring cocktail with such
ingredients as hair tonic, witch
hazel and bay rum. The new or
der aims to uphold the eighteenth
amendment. It is a bone-dry
thrust at the tonsorial bootlegger.

Log Cabin to Congress
Is Brilliant Record of
Tennessee War Hero
BY A. W. OGDEN
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. —Born in a
log cabin, under the shadow of
“Stump Knob,” December 23, 1888,
Carroll Reece’s successful struggle
to reach congress has been not un
like that of the immortal Kentucky
wood-splitter who went to the White
House.
Carroll Reece will be the next con
gressman from the First congres
sional district of Tennessee, having
defeated Congressman Sam R. Sells,
a ten-year incumbent, by a majority
of 1,234 for the Republican nomina
tion. He has no opposition for elec
tion in November.
The little log cabin where Mr.
Reece first saw the peep o’ dawn
o*r the mountains of east Tennes
see still stands at Butler, on the
banks of the Watauga. He is the
eighth child of a family of four
teen, eleven boys and Uiree giris.
His parents o ned only a few acre?
of mountain land, but managed by
hard work, good management and
scant living to give their children all
the benefits of the country free
school, which was run only from
three to four months, and was lo
cated five miles aw—
He completed the free school
course and entered Watauga acad
emy in 1906, working during sum
mer months to pay r senses there.
For peeling bark he was paid
eighty-five cents per day, twenty
cents of which daily went for board.
In 1908 he graduated at the head of
his class.
Reece then entered Carson and
Newman college, Jefferson City, In
He taught school during the
fall and went to the college during
the spring term. While in college
he waited on tables to 'lp pay ex
penses. In 1914 he graduated and
entered the University of New York,
where he studied and taught some
classes the first year. The second
year he was appointed assistant sec
retary of the School of Commerce,
and was elected secretary of the
School of Commerce just before go
ing to the training camp at Platts
burg, when the call to arms was
sounded by Uncle Sam.
He enlisted in the army in April,
1917, only a few days after war
was declared. He was later com
missioned as a second lieutenant of
infantry and went across with the
Forty-second (Rainbow) division. He
was in the army two years and five
months and was on foreign soil
nearly two years. He was at the
front more than 200 days and “went
over the top” more than twenty
times. The American government
decorated him with the Distinguish
ed Service Medal and a Distinguished
Service Cross for valor. France gave
him a Croix de Guerre with palm,
and the marshals of France and
commanders of American armies
mentioned him in their reports. When
he came home he started to cam
paign and in the primary election,
Lieutenant Reece won the nomina
tion, which is equivalent to election.
General Pershing in an official or
der said of him:
“He (Lieutenant Reece) showed
energy, initiative and military abil
ity of a high order, while serving as
second leutenant in the One Hun
dredth and Second infantry, in com
mand of a company and later a bat
talion. He led his company bril
liantly in the attack upon St. Mihiel
salient and during the onerations of
the Twenty-sixth division north of
Verdpn. Confronted later by a task
of great difficulty when placed in
command of a battalion, which suf
fered heavv casualties and became
badly disorganized, he displayed
marked ability and determination in
reorganizing nis command and mould
ing it into a good fighting unit, able
under his leadership to achieve valu- 1
able results.”
Carroll Reece is thirty-one years
old, which some have argued is too
young. But history records that
many of the laading figures in Amer
ican politics attained prominence at
an early age. Daniel Webster en
tered congress at the age of thirty
one; John C. Calhoun at twenty-nine;
Henry Clay at twenty-nine; President
Garfield at thirty; Andrew Johnson
at thirty-one, and Abraham Lincoln
in his early thirties. Alexander
Hamilton was a member of Wash
ington’s cabinet and established the
financial system of the United States
before he was thirty.
Homed Owl Answers
Call of Carroll Man
And Is Captured
Those persons who are prone to be
a bit skeptical as to the abilitv of a
human being to hold vocal communi
cations with the birds of the air
should hear the very interesting ac
count which G. T. Williams, of Tem
ple, Ga., gives of calling to him and
capturing a huge horned owl, on his
farm in Carroll county.
For some time Mr. Williams had
been hearing peculiar noises on his
farm, and immediately identifying
them with the horned owl, and realiz
ing that this peculiar specie was a
rarity in this section of the state,
decided to attempt its capture. He,
accordingly, about three weeks ago.
went out with his gun, and hearing
the owl’s call, gave so perfect an
imitation of* an answering call that
within a few seconds the huge bird
made its appearance.
No sooner, however, had it per
ceived its mistake in- recognizing Mr.
Williams’ call as that of one of its
own kind, than it was overtaken by
a sudden fit of anger. Shrieking and
flapping its wings, it made a vicious
charge upon Mr. Williams, who says
he was compelled to defend himself
vigorously to avoid being injured. He
soon managed to stun the owl with a
blow on its head from his gun.," •

KAISER PLANNED
ANOTHER WAR ON i
BRITISH EMPIRE
BERLIN, Oct. 19.—The former
German Emperor William confidently
expected to emerge victoriously front
the world, war and then marshal his
continental armies against England
in what he termed “the
Punic war.” says Mathias Erzb«tt?VT,
in his volume of war recollections
just published at Stu**r;:'‘. Ta«
emperor evidently used the term
“Punic war” in the sense of a con
flict for world supremacy between
two great nations.
Erzberger, who was formerly min
ister of finances, but now has tem
porarily
activities, set forth in detail tha
meeting between the then Emperor
William and the relphstag leaders,
after the fall of Chancellor Beth
mann-Hollweg. and following the/
adoption of the peace resolution in
July, 1917.
He says the emperor became en
thusiastic over the phrase “peace or
compromise,” which he assumed was
what the relchstag majority de
manded. “Excellent word ‘com
promise’,” William stated. “It
means,” he said, “that we take the
money, raw products, cotton, oil and
ores out of the pockets of our en
emies and transfer them to our own.”
The parliamentary leaders, llerr
Erzberger says, were astonished by
this unexpected display of Imperial
mentality and felt that they were be
ing made the victims of his mockery.
The emperor’s further remarks wer«
in the same channel, he declares.
William asserted that the United
States and England had entered into
an alliance for the purpose of reck
oning with Japan after the war. He
was also reliably Informed that Rus
sia would join Japan in warding off
the Anglo-Saxon blow. He admitted
that England would not emerge
the war defeated, but said the flsgl
accounting would come when he lad
his continental armies against her in
“the second Punic war.”
The amazement of the parliamen
tarians grew as the kaiser continued,
Erzberger reports. The monarch as
serted that “ a complete understand
ing would be reached with Franco
when the war was over.”
Referring to a battle in Galicia,
which occurred only a few days pre
vious, the kaiser claimed that the
Prussian guard, under the command
of his son Fritz, had “brushed the
dempcratic dust off the vests of the
Russians.”
“Wherever the guards appear there
is no longer any democracy left,” he
exclaimed.
The Rumanians got their just de
serts, the war lord told Erzberger
when the latter suggested that the
poor Rumanians had probably lost
everything but their shirts.
