and whisper ominously are going to take poor old Grannie Pohlmeyer to the insane asy lum and she a bit The fact is that rederick onl meycr the idolized son of the 8 vear old German woman asks that the probate court commit his mother to an asvlum for the insane All along the street the neighbors sit in little circles and it Some snake their heads sadly over the latter day contempt lor virtuous old age that has made an Osler theory possible Others more aggressive raise their voices in protest and say that the thing must be stopped Others again think there must be a that it is impossible Insanity Next door to where the aged woman lives witli her son at 311 Chestnut street' his young wife and their two children is the Raether family Their indignation is boundless 4A queer kind of insanity that is that Mrs Pohlmeyer says Mrs Raether is no more sane wo man in the whole street than that good old Woman But her daugh ter in law that is at the bottom of it all She wants to get nd of the poor ladv And everything the young woman has she owes to her mother in law Thev have never been able to agree The older woman is the pink of neatness and of German thrift auJ frugalitv She was rich in the old countrv and she knows what the vicis situdes of fortune are the furniture linen and silver in the house are hers and the best part of the house is hers too But the voung woman wants to dress like a millionaire and put on airs while the old one knows where all this ex travagance will lead to That is the secret of the whole Pohlmeyer insane? if she is I guess I am too and so is ever one of my acquaint said Mrs Margaret Regner More Indignation never heard of such a said Mrs Gourlay insane how is it' that only a few weeks ago her daughter in law went to the hos pital and left her two children In charge of the woman she now wants sent to an asylum? She herself told me what a clever well informed wom an her mother in law' is and that few Germans could compare with her for brain power and Mrs Hugo Berzholdt who lives at 601 Mack avenue is almost sick with grief over the affair We always: thought red Pohl meyer "a fine young fellov but how he could treaty his aged so shamefully?

Assistant Corporation Coun sel Hally after a confer ence with the mayor yesterday noon said: have been mayor for some matters He is a policy and I bit for not giving out just what he is doing as he might spoil his plans He has asked for legal advice on a num ber of points and It will take some tune for me to frame an answer are a great many things to be considered in mapping out a plan of campaign on the street car situa tion or instance the mayor has asked me what effect it would have if the city would allow the to connect the track on Congress street west of Griswold with the tracks on the latter street We be lieve that the franchise for West Congress street has expired while that on Griswold street has fourteen years to run Ought to Build on Griswold have today been conferring about the proposition to build a dou ble track on Griswold between Jef ferson and Larned where the wants to run its suburban cars I certainly believe that tne city ought to build a track there It will be a good opportunity to test the right to suppose the city was shown to have the right to build a track would it be demonstrated that the municipality could run cars on such a Mr Hally was asked The city lawyer laughed a little and replied that is another ques tion But these things are more mat ters of policy than of Mayor Codd intimated that while he is working steadily on the street car matter it will be some time next year before he will be in position to say just how he proposes to carry out his policy of getting three cent fares Aid Gibbons says: a city or not al tle ex MODEL 4 Health

young men of energy and ambition by one who knows NEIGHBORS STAND BY GRANNIE POHLMEYER mentally as well as physically as any woman of her years in the city She Is splendidly educated has refined tastes and is goodness itself they got tired of her there was question of sending her to a home for old people but she wanted to take her things along and they say that this1 is the reason that they want her adjudged insane She can take anything with her to the asylum and will be well out of their way I know a home in which she will be welcome as long as she but to send a sane woman to live among mad people it is too horrible to think of 'Lament Mrs Pohlmeyer who speak a word of English was the picture of grief yesterday at Mr home Einmal wie Ish leide wie Ich (Just think how I suffer I suf fer) she sobbed I love my son He is the world to me and it is not his fault they can't send a sane woman to a mad house sooner she shall go than I God will not permit such an injustice to come to me in my old days I know that we all must suffer but this is too dreadful and I trust in Him to save me from such a Daughter Denies Mrs rederick Pohlmever' daughter in law was quite willing to talk about the matter mother in law is suspicious of everybody If anything was lost about the place and we asked her about it she would get angry and say: take 1 trust anybody acted quite right since Pohlmever and I were married she has been getting worse and we have tasked to have her ex amined1 We took this step at the ad vice of our family physician She has been taking the people next door into her confidence and if course we stand that Dr Emerson and Dr Hitchcock have been appointed to examine her We hope that it will come out all Not the least interesting phase of the hullabaloo recently raised over a possible strefet car settlement is the scramble that is on by various pos sible mayoralty candidates who want to use the time worn Issue to hoist themselves into the chair The News which is touting Maybury for mayor garbled Mayor interview in The ree Press in which he for the first time gave his street car ideas at length That paper took part of one sentence out of up by itself leaving out the context which much report Codd is made to say I be lieve we ought to settle with the pres ent What the mayor really did say was this we can get a rate of fare that would be satisfactory to the peo ple I trunk we ought to settle with the present The same paper gives May bury another chanCe to make a long campaign play on interview in which Maybury pretends to see statement of his attitude the indication that he had made an agree ment with President Hutchins Judge Phelan seems to be tne second choice for mayor He is not given nearly so much space as Maybury but chance to say would keep on fighting just like Maybury However Statement gener ally pleased the aidermen and other city hall politicians and there were plenty of declarations yesterday that if Codd could settle the street car question with lower fares there would no longer be any question ot his re election There are some indications tnat Mayor Codd and President Hutchins have had a talk about a possible settlement but it does not appear that any definite understanding has been reached Mr Hutchins in a statement made yesterday says HRe Codd that tne solution of the problem lies in a lower rate of fare He reiterates that an eight for a quarter fare is impossible but intimates that the best thing would be to lengthen the hours when tickets may be used So Said of Many Children in airview
