Alten S. Miller, general manager of the Consolidated Gas Electric Light and Power Company, that his acceptance of an offer from the United Electric Light and Power Company, of St. Louis, was not on account of the larger salary which he will receive in the Western city attracted much attention in business circles. Mr. Miller yesterday talked freely of his future and his regret at leaving Baltimore, but would say nothing of the cause which prompted his resignation.

His salary here Is $18,000 a' year, and it is understood he will receive $25,000 in St. Louis. Mr. Miller Has an interesting personality. His eyes are hazel, rather deep set, yet large, full and open, looking straight at a person with whom he Is in conversation.

His mouth is rather large and strong, his customary smile disclosing unusually even and well-kept teeth. His nose, too, is somewhat over the normal size, but as all his features are so strong and pronounced this woi.d pnly be noticeable on close ob-servatxc Additional keenness is given to the countenance by the almost entire bald- Photograph by Janvier, MR. ALTEN 8. MILLER ness of the head. What hair Mr.

Miller has is a dark scarcely tinged with gray and closely cropped. His skin is dark, In keeping with his hair and eyes. He is smooth shaven, so that every feature is distinct. His cheekbones are high and his chin is sharply marked both indicative of strong character and great determination. This striking head is set on a solid neck set a pair of muscular shoulders.

The body beneath is compact, with a total weight of perhaps 180 pounds of brawn and This is the man who has done much, to build up the Consolidated Gas Company of this city and its electrical service adjunct to its present efficient state. He has practically rebuilt the gas plant, making -an almost new concern of the supply'source at Spring Gardens. Mr. Miller was born in Richmond 41 years ago. His father was a tobacco merchant in that city.

The boy was given early opportunities for education in the public and private schools of his native city. He entered Stevens Institute in 1888, taking a "course in electical engineering and thoroughly mastering the subject. His first occupation was with the United Gas and Improvement Company of Philadelphia. After a brief service he went to Omaha to take charge of the plant which this company owned there. Here he succeeded.

His suggestions and his improvements, and, above all, savings to his employers, soon opened to him a wider field. He went to New York and took charge, of laying, the gas mains and looking afix'T the service of the East River Gas Company. This company tunneled under the East River from Long Island City to New Mr. Miller had "charge of most of. this construction.

Under his management the output of gas was increased from 6,000,000 to 30,000,000 cubic feet a day, and is the largest single producing gas plant in the world. He remained in New York 10 years, coming to Baltimore in 1902 at the suggestion of Mr. Thomas J. Hayward, Whom he had known for a number of years, and of Dr. Alexander C.

Humphries, president of Stevens Institute, who strongly recommended him to the local company. Since taking charge of the local gas plant the output has iucreased 73 per the record for the year ended 30, 1908, cubic feet. Mr. Miller married Miss Virginia Bennett, of Jersey City Heights, Just about the time he came to Baltimore. They have no children.

He owns a beautiful cottage on Ridgewood road, Roland Park, which lie has occupied since his residence In Baltimore.

Walter and Patrolmen Ruhland and Brass, together with several men, succeeded in cornering one of the steers, which became infuriated and charged. The officers emptied their weapons into his body, but this did not feese the steers.

Then they got shotguns, nd the animal was finally ubdued, and later killed by an employe of the Union Abattoir.

The Animal Refuge Association, whose refuge is at 810 Ensor street, where homeless dogs and "cats are cared for, has decided to broaden its scope.

The association is now trying to get a farm where it can take care of horses and mules. The ladies of this association say that many horses are now working that are unfit to work, and they will try to have these broken-down Black Beauties put on the farm for recreation, afterward turning them over to people who will give them proper care. A beginning, has already been made, for the ladles have" placed several horses and mules with families in the country. Mrs. Edwin J.

A meeting which will probably mean the -termination of the kosher meat controversy between the Hebrew Butchers' Association and the committee representing the Hebrew congregations will be held tonight at Lloyd Street Synagogue by the committee. At a meeting of the butchers a few nights ago they discussed the question ofwhether they should consent to allow Western meat to be barred from Baltimore and whether they should be held responsible for the proposed system of inspection.

They say they are willing to submit to Inspection, hut they do not wish to be held responsible for the cost. The butchers also claim that If the rabbis are paid for the inspection it Bhould come from the purse of the consumer and not from a tax levied upon them. The rabbis of the orthodox synagogues are not paid a salary, but their remuneration comes from commissions, such as weddings and funerals. The committee representing the Hebrew congregations consists of a president and a delegate from 28 synagogues, and they are members of the Federated Orthodox Jewish Congregations of Baltimore. Their contention Is that the butchers do not comply with the strict laws of the Jewish faith in handling kosher meat.

It was said yesterday afternoon by one of the committee that if the butchers do not submit to inspection the committee will open 33 or 40 independent butcher shops. UNABLE TO AGREE ON AUTO LAW Secretary Darling Says Legislature Will Have To Settle It. Mr. Frank Darling, secretary of the Automobile Club of Maryland, said yesterday that the committee representing the club and Governor Crothers' Automobile Commission were unable to agree on the details of the proposed Automobile Tax law and that from present indications the differences will have to be settled by the next Legislature. In the negotiations the Governor's commission was represented by President Sherlock Swann, of the Police Board, while the club has been represented by its counsel, Mr.

Osborne I. Yellott. The club proposes a license tax of $0 for cars up to and including 20 horsepower, $9 for over 20 and including 30 horsepower, $12 over 30 and including 40 horsepower and $13 over 40 horsepower, provided that all vehicles in the State have imposed a wheel tax as One-horse pleasure vehicles, 23 cents a wheel; two-horse pleasure vehicles, 50 cents a wheel; four or more horse team, $1 a wheel; and provided further that all vehicles be required to carry lights at night.

APPEALS AGAINST BLACK LINES Chairman Ilniuia Siiys Republicans SulVer From Them. Pursuant to a resolution passed by the Republican State Central Committee at its last meeting. Chairman John B. Hanna, of the committee, has sent a letter to Governor Crothers. asking that ho get an opinion from Attorney-General Isaac Lobe Straus on the legality of the practice of the election supervisors In the Wilson ballot law counties of placing black linos on the ballots.

The Republicans say that stirh a method is similar to emblem voting, which is unlawful In this State, Hnd hold that It la worked to the advantage of Democratic candidates. After telling of tho system of appointing election suprevisors Mr. llauna, In his letter, says "To the supervisors, acting as ft 'hoard, the law intrusts duties of greut Importance, and In 11 counties of the State discretionary power in the arrangement of names or questions upon the otlicial ballot. Nevertheless, on several occasions in certain of these counties the two Democratic supervisors have determined the arrangement of the official ballot secretly and without permitting their Republican colleague to tako part in the proceeding or even to havo any knowledge of the arrangement. I am advised by counsel that such action on their part Is illegal and renders the ballot so prepared irregular and unlawful.

"I voice the sentiments of all falr-nitnded men, whether Democrats or Rpn'lillcBns, or neither, In saying such conduct further shows that the supervisors guilty of It are not 'men of high character anil and therefore that thoy are not fit supervisors of elections under our election law. "The purpose of thus prepnrlnjr the "ballot without the safeguard to fairness provided by the law and afforded by the presence and participation of. the Republican supervisor is shown clearly by the fact 4 In some instances, heavy black linos, have boon printed across tho ballots In question and the names of I ho Democratic candidates arranged in uniform and easily remembered relations to the black lines In. question. In the 11 xountles above mentioned the law has seen fit to prescribe that no aid shall be afforded to illiterate voters, either by the provision of sample ballots or 'by the advertisement of nnmog of candidates in the order of their, ar-' rangoment on the ballot, or even by the addition of party designations to their names, as Is directed throughout the remainder of the State.

"Of the justice or public policy of thus discriminating between tho voters of different parts of the same State I nm not called upon to sponlj here, but It Is clonr that the law and good faith alike require the same treatment in this respect to be accorded to all citizens of the same county whatever their politics." Mr. Hanna then relates several cases In past elections where it Is charged that Republicans have been placed at a disadvantage by the use of black lines and the secret arrangement of the names on. the ballots by the Democratic supervisors. Until he receives the letter Governor Crothers will not discuss the question. It Is probable, however, that he will take it up with Mr.

Straus. PEN-MAR TO BE OPENED SUNDAY Popular Resort Has Been Improved In Many Ways. Ten-Mar resort will bo opened next Sunday.

He made the discovery Saturday that the dome of the City Hnll has none of these protections. At first he was eager to remedy the defect, but now that he has given It thought he is not so sure. There are people who do not consider lightning rods wise or safe things to have around the house, and the views of these people imv reached Mr. Preston. Mr.

Preston will read a number of books on the subject. The result of his investigation is being awaited eagerly by city o.ffieials. Apparently lightning has never struck the rods now at the corners of the building, for if it had there would have been trouble. The rods are not grounded; they lead down about half-way to the ground, where they end about eight inches above a stone flooring. Policeman "Nearly Suffocated.

SUIT TO TEST CITY STOCK Sale Of Conduit Loan Bonds Depends On Its Outcome. The expected amicable suit for the purpose of determining the legality of the issue of $1,000,000 four per cent, stock by the city for the extension of, the underground conduit system was instituted in the Circuit Court yesterday.

J. S. Bache of New York, and Lawrence Barnum of Boston, who had agreed to buy $250,000 of the stock, objected to fulfilling their contract, as their attorney had discovered an alleged irregularity in the passage by the City Council of the ordinance for the submission of the proposed loan to the voters of the city. This alleged irregularity Is that the ordinance was not read three times and passed at the same session of the City Council. To have judicially determined whether the issue of the stock is thereby rendered illegal, the suit was brought.

If the courts decide that the stock was legally issued, J. S. Bache Co and Lawrence Barnum Co. will carry out their agreement to purchase $250,000 of it. For the purpose of having the question determined, Mr.

Duke Bond, a member of the Second Branch of the City Council, is complainant, and the Mayor and City Council and the Commissioners of Finance are the defendants. The bill of complaint recites the passage by the Legislature of 1908 of the enabling act for the issue of the stock and -the introduction in the First Branch Of the City Council on May 12, 1008, of the ordinance for the submission of the proposed loan to the voters of the city. In the First Branch the ordinance was read the first time on May 12, 1908, the second time on May 18, and was passed on May 21. In the Second Branch it was read on May 21, 25 and 27, and was signed by the Mayor on June 4. It was ratified by the vote of the people dn November 3.

The present City Council, which enacted the ordinance, was organized on May 23, 1907, and its first session terminated May 21, 1908. Therefore the third reading of the ordinance in the First Branch, and all three readings in the Second Branch were after the expiration of the first session of the Council. The question raised by the bill of complaint is whether or not the City Charter requires that ordinances to become effective must be read on three different days of the same session in" each branch. An answer was filed for the city contending that the ordinance was legally passed and the Issue of stock valid. The case will be argued before Judge Heulsler tomorrow by Mr.

Eli Frank for Mr. Bond and Assistant City Solicitor Lauchhelmer for the city. It will be heard by the Court of Appeals on June 29. HELD ON ARSON CHARGE Negro Woman Says She Went To Cellar To Smoke Out Rats. James A.

7. Idyl The Glowworm Linke 8. Selection Algeria Herbert Wittmark Popular Hits The Master O'Hare 10. March A Terrible Turk Van Alstyne i GEMS FROM THE POETS JUGGLIXG JERRY. By the Late Geokge Mekedith.

Pitch here the tent while the old horse grazes: By the old hedge-side we'll halt a stage, It's nigh my last above the daisies: My next leap'll be man's blank page. Yes, my old girl! and it's no use crying: Juggler, constable, king, must bow. One that outjuggles all's been spying Long to have me, and he has me now. We're traveled times to this old common: Often we've hung our pots in the gorse. We've had a stirring life, old woman! You and and the old gray horse.

Races, and fairs, and royal occasions. Found us coming to their call: Now they'll miss us at our stations: There's a Juggler outjuggles all! Juggling's no sin, for we must have victual; Nature allows us to bait for the fool. Holding one's own makes us juggle no little; But, to Increase it, hard juggling's the rule. You that are sneering at my profession, Haven't you juggled a vast amount? There's the prime minister, in one session, Juggles more games than my sins'll count. I've studied men from my topsy-turvy Close, and I reckon, rather true.

Some 'are fine fellows: some, right scurvy; dash between the two. But It's a woman, old girl, that makes me Think more kindly of the race: And It's a woman, old girl, that shakes me When the Great Jugjfler I must face. Yonder come smells of the gojse, so nutty, Goldlike and warm: it's the prime of May. Better than mortar, brick and putty, Is God's house on a blowing day. Lean me more up the mound; now I feel it: All the eld heath-smells! Ain't it strange? There's the world laughing, as If to conceal it.

But he's by us, juggling the change. 4 1.
