Secretary of the Treasury MeAdo. who has been con fined to his home bv an attack of stoci i fi, treble, waa reported faday to be ait Jmproved. J Suffragists today arc smiling placidly at the assertion made yesterday by Mrs. Frank J. Goodwin, a prominent New Jersey lender of tho antts, to n class of young nntis at the homo of Mrs. Austin M. Purves, that the ballot-seeking women of Philadelphia were putting forth the Hower of their flock, the pretty young women, as bait to attract men to the cause. i Girls, according to Mrs. Goodwin, who are Just blossoming Into young woman hood, are being brought Into the llmo llght of street corners, nice tracks nnd county fairs, just to advance tho cause and because of this they nro In great clanger of being preyed upon by wicked and designing men. "Ridiculous," said Mrs. Wilfred Lewis, picsldent of thCEqual Franchise Society, commenting on the charge. "It Just shows what poor losers the nntis nre when they hnvo to resort to such petty nnd altogether unfounded statements to attuck us. To my knowledge there has never been a case of n young woman suffrugist being discourteously trented while advancing the cause In Philadelphia, no matter how charming or pretty she may have been." TIME V.S WHEN "PUFFS" WERE UGLY. Miss Carrie Katzensteln. sccretnry of the society, characterized Mrs. Goodwin's assertions ns altogether too inconse quential to have much attention paid to them, but smS couldn't resist a little jab at what she called tho Jealousy of tho vntls. "Time wns," said she, "when suffragists were caricatured as poor unfortunntcs with large Jawbones, huge feet hort hair, tierce eyes, and they wore dressed accordingly. It Is encouraging to know now; however, that our friends, the antls, realize, that we havo 'youth and beauty,' to quote Mrs. Goodwin, In our tanks. "That wo consider personal charm one of our 'assets' is a very natural little womanly weakness to which we must plead guilty. That the nntis should grow peevish about a recognition of this is, perhnps, natural for persons championing a losing cause. "Surely," she continued earnestly, "no person who knows the type of women at the head of the suffrage movement can take seriously any of the charges made about a misuse of our 'assets WHERE GREEK WOULD MEET GREEK. "Were a tialnlng school for youth and beauty possible, such as Mrs. Goodwin is t'ledltod with having tid that we suffragists maintain, then I actually be lieve that the two sides of the movement would he drawn together In a common cause nnd both antls and suffragists would competo side by side for Class Number One." Another woman to take Issue with the antls was Mrs. M. C. Morgan, former Secretary of tho Pennsylvania Woman Suffrage Association. Mrs Morgan la a mother and grandmother, nnd one of her daughters. Miss Mnry Churchman Mor gan, a senior nt Hryn Mawr, and a holder of several worlds records In athletics, Is an acclaimed beauty of the Equal Suffrage camp. "In tho beginning of the suffrage move ment here, many women belonging to the Society of Friends," said Mrs. Morgan, who is a Quaker herself, "came out for the can's. They believed In plain dress ing nnd they dreBscd plainly. The move ment whs not popular In the beginning, nnd other women whose belief did not affect their mode of dress wore simple attire, thus making personal sacrifice to that they might contribute to the cause. "But afterwards," she continued, "we became more powerful. All kinds of dressing was noticeable In our ranks and even the Quakers wore their best and most charming gowns We were no longer the plain, and what the antls might tall unattractive, group that vrt were in the beginning. "As for our young women becoming a prey to unscrupulous men, that is ab surd They are Intelligent, well educated and most of them college girls, wh,o are perfectly capable of taking care of them selves. Jealousy of our tremendous growth Is r sponsible for the petty little charges that the antls trump up against us." ?

Take advantage of their curiosity and the whole thing may proe to be a blessing In dbgiilse. This is Just what James S. Jones did. He conducts a department store at Ger mantown avenue and Coulter street. On discovering a few days ago that yegg men had blown hit safe out of shape and wrecked a part of his ofllce, Jones took tho safe, a few rugs nnd other things which had been damaged and put all tho wreckage in his window. What was the result? A large crowd looked In the window all day long. Then they began to look In other windows and saw things that they would like to buy. So In a way tho misfortune proved to bo n good advertisement and Jones finds that he Is having more customers In his store than ever. MANY RECENT ROBBERIES. But members of the Yeggmen'o Adver tising Association are keeping themselves scane. nevertheless, although there is much petty thieving going on in Ger mantown. There have been at least two dozen robberies In that section during the last three weeks. In hope of ending the bur glars' campaign, a squad of plain olothea men went out from City Hall, but up to the present time they have not made any important captures. Evidence that the burglars hail a regu lar clearing housy was discovered today, much wic jjunce touna an unoccupied house on Walnut lane in which was con cealed a lot of stolen goods It Is be lieved that the thieves have a rndxvnn. somewhere on the outskirts of German-town. In the German army Is one general who enjoys popularity throughout the Empire. He enjoys also tho confidence and tho best good will of men of his own class. Ho Is Paul von Bcneckendorff und von Htndenburg, Gcneral-oberst, commnncler-In-chlef of the German forces In East Prussia. If Jcffre Is the French Fnbius of this war. Hlndenburg Is tho German Cln clnnntus. He was at the plow when the war trumpet sounded on August I; not literally, perhaps, but figuratively. In 1911 he was retired at the nge of 61. and for three years after had lived without military responsibility on his estate In Posen. near where he was born. Then, when the principal German armies were rushing into Belgium toward the plains of France, there came a call to the obscure little village where Gen eral Hlndenburg lived. He was ordered to take command of the Kaiser's armle3 appointed to meet the forces of the Czar. Born In 1S17, Hlndenburg entered the 3d Regiment of Foot Guards as a sub altern In I860. In the war against Aus tria he commanded a company after tho death of tho captain, who was his Im mediate superior. At the battle of Koenlggratz. with about 10 men, he took an Austrian battery. A few days later tho Emperor con ferred on him the Older of the Red Eagle, with Crossed Swords. This order Is ordinarily conferred only on majors or officers of higher rank. In tho Franco-Prussian war Hlnden burg was a captain nnd took part In tho storming of St. Prevat, near Motz, one of the bloodiest engagements of the war, in which the German loss was 10 per cent, of those engaged. That was on August 18, Twelve, days later he wns In the battlo of Sedan, where he led his com pany in a charge. At the close of that battle Captain Hlndenhurg was decorated by the Emperor with tho Order of the Iron Cross. The other day, after the battle of East Prussia. Hlndenburg received his third decoration direct from the hands of the Emperor. This was also an Iron Cross. nut Ulfferent from tho one given him II years ago. That was made of tho metal of captured French cannon and bore the figures '70. This will be made of captured Russian cannon and will bear the figures 14. REOPEN f ATMODGH WILL CONTROVERSY IN ORPHANS' COURT Kin of Eccentric Millionaire Who Left Estate to Serv ants and Friends Appeal Register's Decision. Judge Lamorelle In the Orphans' Court today called for hearing the appeal of disinherited kin of the late John Q Wat mough from the decision of the Register of Wills admitting to probate the dece dent's will, which bequeathed the estato of nearly tl.000,000 to servants and friends. Tho Instrument, which, It Is alleged, was made while Mr..Watmough waa In a weakened mental condition, hears dato of June C, 1M3. Under Its terms J10O.O00 Is tho remembrance of Znllo Fnget, a French maid In the service of Mr. Wat motigli; $1000 is given to William Green, n butler, nnd smaller bequests provided i for other domestics. The residue of the estate was bequeath ed to Ferdinand Keller, Sr dealer in nn- tlquci, nnd Mntllda Knller, his wife, who ' were Intimate frlnnds of Mr. watmoiign. ' Keller wns a co-executor of the estate 1 with John G. Johnson. The fight before the Register to prevent tho probato of the will was Instigated liv Dr. William Watmough Grler, a nephew, nnd other disinherited relatives. CO WITNESSES TO VOUCH FOR VALIDITY. Bn an ngrecment of counsel, record of the sensational testimony adduced nt the Register's hearing, consisting of 1500 type written pages, was presented for the Court's consideration. Attorney B. M. Snul. representing the RpglstT. said he had about 60 witnesses In support of the validity of the will. The court granted permission to both the supporters and contestants of the will to supplement tho record with nny additional testimony they hnd to offer. Judge Lamorellp also gave permission to counsel for the contestants to take tho depositions of threo witnesses who are now In foreign countries, one being In Australia and the other two In England. No testimony whatever was heard today. The court nnd uttornpys confined them selves to the task of getting the casa In proper shape for the hearing, which is to determine whether a Jury Is to pais upon the will of the eccentric millionaire.

What would a little English, Frenoh, Ruealan or Servian girl do If a doll came to her by way of tho Christmas hlp, Jason, which wns marked with the !n formation, "Made In Germany"? An official of'the Child Federation ad vanced this question this morning and threw tho whole pavilion 1A City Hall courtyard Into a flutter. There was a hasty rush for the counter on which tho dollies are lined up nnd a careful ex amination of them followed. But If any one of them hal her origin In the Kalser'a land, she Is not advertising the fact. There were no tell-tale "Made in Dcutsch lund" signs. Toy contributions have fallen behind In the race for first place, and stockings and underwear ore running each other a close second for that honor. Belgian ref ugees still continue to draw the most sympathy, although many French people here, who have relatives In the war, have. come to tno pavilion ana nave signweu their Intention of sending enough con tributions to make a good showing or their little orphaned countrymen. The placing of bowls for money con tributions outside of the pavilion yester day proved to be a great auocess.
