HOW TO DISAPPEAR
(Continued from pago 5.)
r
very first day of the mystery to make
an identification "just for fun." The
lawyer dropped into the shop one day
and became interested in the clerk's
chatter about the case. Several cir
cumstances, especially the London
address, awakened a train of thought
and he remembered the melancholy
of Judge Hill's daughter the day she
called on him. He left the shop im
mediately and purchased the news
pers for several days back. This was
the first time he had read anything
about the case except the headlines.
THE circumstances were such that
he felt' it his duty to call at the
morgue. I think that he saw the body
about a week after the woman's death.
When he was departing ho was ques
tioned by tho reporters, but shook his
head as if to say "I did not recognize
her."
With the true caution of a lawyer
he had determined to make up a com
plete case before going to trial. He
was practically certain that he hail
recognized "Mrs. Irving" as Judge
Hill's daughter, and that evening he
w ired the judge to come to New York,
giving him as much Information as
possible.
While the reporters were busy at
the coroner's office the judge, accom
panied by tho lawyers, had made the
identification.
The judge's daughter and her hus
band had been touring Europe under
the stage name m of "Veragua." The
real name has slipped my memory.
The husband was approached by
the London correspondents of the
New York papers as he was coming
out of a mansion at which he had
been giving a musicale. He was in
evening dress and wore a monocle.
When informed of his wife's death ho
screwed the monocle into his eye and,
in an attempted English manner, said
coldly:
"Indeed. Quite interesting."
Then he stepped Into a carriage and
was driven to his apartments.
USE A LITTLE BRAINS
THE west is facing a power short
age. Not merely on account of
lack of water during certain periods
of the year, but through lack of de
velopment to keep pace with the rap
idly expanding industrial system and
the Increasing number of uses to
which electricity is being put in the
homes and on the farms, not to men
tion contemplated electrification of
railroad systems.
This is not the fault of tho great
utility companies, but the fault of a
public system which has slowly but
surely during the past ten years
squeezed their earnings down to a
point where their credit has been im
paired and they could no longer get
tho money to make extensions.
Our system of regulation, which is
supposed to be for the benefit of tho
public, is now coming before tho bar
of public opinion. Old theories are
being swept away by the dear lessons
of experience and the public is com
ing to see that any system of regula
tion which ultimately strangles indus
try is a public detriment.
Regulation in the future must be
along more constructive lines or the
people will be the losers.
With the present cost of labor and
of material and of money, not only
now, but for the last couple of years,
nearly all utilities have operated at a
loss or inadequate income. Nearly all
the power companies are confronted
with shortage of power, because they
have not been able to make the nor
mal expenditures for additional devel
opment, on account of scarcity and
high price of labor, money and ma
terial. The situation was never before so
critical. One of the most pressing
needs of the west is additional cheap
power, and there is nothing that is
given so litttle consideration or held
down by public regulation so hard and
fast as the power utility. The people
and industries are demanding power
far beyond the ability of npwer com
panies to serve, and it Is nt so much
a question of price with thim as it is
a question of getting the power.
Virtually every kind of business
which the power companies have been
serving is making good money and
can afford to pay, and should pay a
remunerative price for power.
What the west needs is a few util
ity commissions with nerve enough to
allow the power utility the right to
collect sufficient rates to go ahead
and expand to meet the people's
needs. Anybody can kill industry,
but it takes brains to build it up. Let
our commmissions use a little brains
and co operate with the utilities. In

JUSTICE AT HOME.
pHE Chicago Herald and Exam-
iner says: "Intelligent workers
know that after the war the country
and its industries are like a sick man
rising from his bed, trying to get on
his feet again.
"Such men are entitled to the co
operation of workers. If they do not
get it, there's going to be great
trouble in this coutnry and tho work
ers will be the chief sufferers."
THE WAY THEY WORK.

"Have you any alarm-clocks?" in
quired the customer. "What I want is
one that will arouse the girl without
waking the whole family."
"I don't know of any such alarm
clock as that, madam," said the man
behind the counter; "we keep just the
ordinary kind tho kind that will
wake the whole family without dis
turbing the girl." Tit-Bits.

Customer (looking at soiled bill of
fare) That's a splendid idea, waiter.
