Osborne would resee apnointed! Everett J. Dowell. Building Inspector during Master administration. is apparently the best bet for the job, however, according to rumors around the City Hall this afternoon. The rumors are known to have originated in sources generally considered reliable.

Dowell has been engaged in the contracting and building business since the severance of his with the city when the Republicans out of power relations, at the elose of the Master regime and now has oflices at 15 Clay street.

Dr. Hall Pleasants is at the head of the board.

however, that Mr. Denhard was related to Mrs. Broening, but the relationship was not given. "Mr. Denhard was appointed because he is a personal friend of many sears standing." said the Mayor.

"Besides, he was highly recommended by all elements in the party. Mr. Denhard was the Republican candidate for Clerk of the Court of Appeals some years ago, while the Hon. Phillips Lee Goldsborough Wag Governor, and he made a creditable run. He was also candidate for the Legislatute and Judge of the Orphans' Court.

Democratic Councilmen Silent. Democratic of the Second Branch City Council continue silent as to their action tonight on the "green bag" sent in Inst Monday.

Of course, they lad just come from the Northern Police Station, where they had been given a hearing for having run afoul this city's "blue laws" and the taste that experience may have been a little bitter.

SHE STARTS TO MAKE CHARGES Attorney Endeavors To Stop What He Called "Blackguarding" The Former Husband.

Dr. Alfred H. Braecklein. 1328 Sonth Charles street. and his wife, Mrs.

Anna C. Braecklein, who figured in the sensational divorce case last spring, in which the wife won a decree, were in the Circuit Court again this afternoon. The physician came before Judge ter with a petition asking the court to divide their property, valued at several thousand dollars, between them. Judge Gorter, when Mrs. Braecklein was called to the stand, suggested that there was any testimony to be taken that it would do just as well to have the statements made before an examiner.

and the Judge said he wonld appoint real estate expert, who would make an impartial report ou the value of the property. Assured Expert Will Be Fair. Mrs. Braecklein wanted to know if would be safe to allow the partition of the property depend upon the valuation placed by one man. The Judge said the man he would anoint would be capable of handling the situation with perfect neutrality.

It was also suggested by the Court that so long as Dr. Braecklein's office and business is at the South Charles street house that he might retain that property. "Well. Judge, how about my household effects? queried Mrs. Braecklein.

Then, before receiving a reply, she turned on her former husband and declared that he was lying in the South Charles street house with two women, while she had not enough things to keep her warm. She further declared that she has no home. not even a bed to sleep in. aud said that if it had not been for the fact that her health is not good she would have gone out to work. When she had reached this point Attorney William Purnell Hall, representing Dr.

Braecklein, broke her up by demanding to know whether or not she came into court simply for the purpose of "blackguarding her former spouse." If such was the case. Mr. Hall intimated that his side was prepared to go into "blackguarding" along with her. This did not please the witness, but under the direction of her counsel. Eugene Frederick.

she changed her manner. although before leaving the stand she took: occasion to let everybody know that she didn't think she ought to be without en income while there was property in which she holds an interest. The matter will be threshed out, as suggested by the Court. in the appointment of the real estate expert, who will report his findings to the Court. following the taking of testimony before the examiner.

Mrs. Braecklein was granted a divorce in March. following several days of trial, in which she accused her husband of going to Braddock Heights with a "light-haired little where he registered as man and wife. MARRIAGE LICENSES SMINK SPARSHOTT. Francis C.

"I was very much encouraged by the meeting which at the Garden Theater Attorney- yesterday, was addressed by General A.

Mitchell Palmer. It indieated that the people are ready to cooperate. The fair price list will be nublished tomorrow.

"But they must be absolutely specitie.

If they do not do these things, we shal! not be able to plish much. Anonymous complaints will accomplish nothing. reason for that is clear.

A man wrote in here the other day complaining of the high prices of 8 certain dealer. The writer did not give his name. A Department of Justice agent was sent to see the dealer. The agent demanded the bills which show how much the dealer had paid for his goods. The dealer showed the bills.

But he denied that he had charged the prices which the complaint against him said he had charged. Since the complaint had been an anonymous one and we had no evidence that the high prices had been charged. we were forced to stop there. "Any man or woman who wants to aid in bringing down the cost of living must have the courage to lend his or her name to the cause. Wait Before Buying Clothes.

Man Frightens School Children Residents of Mount Washington are lookout for a man who is said to have attacked a number of schooi keeping a children Friday while they were returning home from the public school. He is said to have threatened them with a knife and made his escape through the woods when chased by a number of men and women.

The chase led through a field near the Mount Washington Country Club. where the man darted into some brush and escaped. The incident has caused a great deai of excitement and many of the children are afraid to return to their homes in the afternoon. A sharp watch has been kept daily in hopes that he may reappear. Many of the residents believe that the assailant is the same man that attacked a number of girls on Ridgewood avenue near the Garrison Boulevard Thursday.

Several citizens and police of the Northwestern district chased him, but he cacaped. Influenza Situation Shows Improvement Thirty- Four New Reported In City, Covering Period Of 48 Hours.

Reports of a walkout of shipyard workers in Baltimore apparently are entirely without foundation. Patrick Joyce, generai organizer of the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers, Iron Shipbuilders and Helpers, in charge in this city, said reports that the men would go out on Wednesday were false. Officials at the Baltimore Dry Docks and Shipbuilding Company a also denied the rumor. Joyce said such reports emanated from sources that sought to create industrial disturbances wherever possible. He declared that there was not even any talk of a walkout among the men here.

Plant officials said that the feeling between the employers and employes here was better at this time than it ins been for rears.

Weather clear track fast, Rev. Melvin S. Morris Quits Methodist Church Rather Than Countenance Modern Dancing. NOW BAPTIST EVANGELIST Card Playing And Theatre-Going Also Included In Practices Which He Denounces. The 0.

K. of Methodist preachers upon jazzing, card playing and theatregoing is among the reasons given by the Rev. Melvin G. Morris, a member of the Baltimore Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, for joining the Baptist Church. Mr.

Morris, who was pastor of Montford Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church, preached his farewell sermon last night, and this morning attended the Baptist ministers' meeting at the Young Men's Christian Association, where he WAS warmly welcomed by his new co-workers. "When a preacher sanctions dancing, and gets behind it. I take exception then and there," said the Rev. Mr. Morris, in discussing the reasons that made him change his affiliation.

"The church has opened the door to the world, and the world has come in. With preachers standing by, approving and encoring, while members of their congregation jazz on the pavement and in the vestibule of the church. I feel it's time for me to get out. We have the people at best only a short time, and I feel that it is our duty to preach the Gospel pure and undefiled to a sinning world. instead of trying to preach just enough to let it trickle through the worldliness rampant today." For Ban On "Shimmying." "Shimmying" is something that all preachers should denounce vigorously, Mr.

Morris said. The Mayor of New York. at a recent entertainment where a professional dancer started to outshimmy the shimmyers oll the Great White Way. ordered the entertainment committee to "cut it out." Mr. Morris said.

The Mayor of York. he continued. recently announced that if anybody started jazzing or shimmying in that city they would be sent to the lockup. "We need more Mayors like those two men," said the young preacher, "in our big cities, and we need more preachers like them in the Card-playing. Mr.

Ave. 1055 Hillen St. Owings Mills Car House, Owings Mills, Md. EXPLANATION No, I The successful installation of a split-cent fare depends upon the good will of the public and the simplicity of the plan. There are many mechanical difficulties because of changes in working of the fare boxes and there are also problems in accounting which entail considerable work for the conductor.

Partly, Commission because of has this agreed and that partly the because conductors of the be limited instructed supply to sell of no checks more on than hand 4 nor the less Publie than Service 4 tickets. To sell less than 4 would mean a great deal more work for the conductor, because of the larger number of sales, and might slow up traffic because of congestion at the boarding end of the car. To more might result in the conductor's supply being depleted and the danger of not being able to sell a ride for 64 cents to others demanding checks. The United Railways has ordered 500,000 more checks. These will reach Baltimore about November 1.

By that time the experimental stage of the installation of the new fare will have passed and the number of checks sold by the conductor can be fixed then, if desired, so as to meet with the wishes of the public. EXPLANATION No. 2 The list of agencies will be added to from time to time. In the natural course of events some of those who have been kind enough to sell the checks will drop out and others must be obtained to take their places. It will be the constant endeavor of the United to have the tickets on sale in every neighborhood.

Some of the sections in the above list have not as many agencies as we had hoped, but the short tirne we have had to prepare for the new fare has been used to its utmost to get as large a number of agencies as possible. For a brie. time and until the 500,000 new checks arrive, we have fixed a maximum of checks fo purchases at the agencies. When we git the no sappy you may lave all you like. A Suggestion Under the ruling of the Public Service Commission, and so as to enable us to make a proper accounting of our revenues, each 64 cent fare must be paid in checks.

When cash is used, the fare must be collected as 7 cents. BUY METAL FARE CHECKS AND SAVE TIME AND MONEY. The United Railways Electric Co. C. D.
