HOKN BLOWING PEtfTH One of the Moot Annoying Found On Viltsir Strfft* The horn i? an important feature I of an automobile's equipment, but serves a definite function, and shrieking the momentary peeviahneaa of an impatient driver ijito the tortured earn of orderly citizens is no part of that function, says the Providence Journal. Apparently there are hundreds of motorists in Providence, who have no conception of the public's right in this respect. Seldom is there a temporary block in the traffic anywhere in the down-town section of the city that fails to reveal the presence of anywhere from a half-dozen to a score or more of these pestiferous noisemaking autocrats. They cannot be checked in their progress for more than ten seconds without beginning to send out their raucous signals of distress to the impeding vehicle ahead or the traffic officer on the next corner. One motor horn in a continuous blast is annoying enough, but a half-dozen at the same time are maddening. And when twenty or thirty of them are working simultaneously, as frequently happens, the result is calculated to stir the passion of homicide in most of the human beings in the neighborhood. The psychology that prompts all this horn-blowing is of two-varieties. It may be a symptom of the driver'3 irritation over the delay, oT it may denote the possession of a perverted spirit of humor, but in either case it shows quite clearly the half-baked temperament of the child that bawls lustily when its immediate wishes are thwarted. "If I can't drive along at once," the peevish horn seems to be proclaiming to the world, "I'm going to make all the infernal noise possible." It is a silly attitude to be taken by any person who is old enough and intelligent enough to be qualified to operate a motor car. More than that, the proceeding is wholly futile. It does not appear that the horn blowing ever speeded the end of the traffic delay by as much as two seconds. The traffic moves when the condition permits and not before. All that is gained is the possible relief to the emotions of the childish drivers.

Allendale To Put Them To Work Allendale, Aug 25.?All male residents of the town of Allendfele eighteen years of age or older, both white and colored, who have no visible means of support are ordered by Ma yor C. C. Chavous to obtain work by Monday morning or be liable to arrest on charge of vagrancy. This ruling does not apply to school children and students. Notice was given by Chief of Police L. A. Stack Thursday to all loafers in town to find work withir\ two days. This according to Chief Stack, will give those to whom this ruling applies two more days in which to loaf as Sunday is not counted in the law. Chief Stack declares that loafing on the streets of Allendale will have to1 stop and the law against vagrancy will be rigidly enforced. "The loafers will either have to go to work or leave town," stated Mayor Chavous on Thursday morning, "unless' they want to serve a little time for the town and county." Those who are arrested under I this law will be put tm the gang .or locked up, according to Chief Stack, who declares that there is much loafing going on in Allendale. HUNTING THB LOOT SuppoMtd to Have Itwn Hidden Hy Richard Whittemore To learn the secr?rt of h hanged man'* whisper police of New York city are making one of the strongest and at tlie same time one of the most persistent searches in history, relates the Monroe (N. C.) Enqiflrer Day and night, from one end of the city to the other and even outside the city, it nfced be, detectives are racking the "Tiger Girl," as the underworld calls Mrs. Richard Whlttemore. c Mrs. Whittemorc is the wodow of Richard Reese Whittemore, who paid with his life on the gallows in Baltimore, Md., for a long series pf crimes, including the theft of thousands of dollars worth of valuables and several murders. Just before Whittemore died on the gallows he whispered a long time to his wife. Police believe he told her where to find his share of the toot he and his gang had obtained in their spectacular holdups. But no one'but Mrs. Whittemore knows a word of what her husband spoke to her just before they parted forever. "It's all over with the kid, and it's all over with the Tiger Girl," said the underworld when Whittemore was dead. They have taken her man. They'll leave her alone now." But the underworld was wrong. It has just been revealed that since the day Whittemore was executed detectives have shadowed the "Tiger Girl." "Track her to every lair until she shows us where the swag is," the police order has gone out. But the Tiger Girl is wary. She knows she is being watched.And police ,admit, ruefully, that they have now not one whit more idea where the cache is hidden than they had when Whittemore was hanged. >, The amount of the loot hidden by Whittemore and believed by the police to be at the command of his widow now, is estimated at more than $480,000. It includes 764 diamond rings, 250 unset diamonds, and watches, catfh, vanity cases, ; pearl necklaces and bracelets. Not a bit.of this loot has ever been recovered by the police. Most of it is hidden where Mrs. Whittemore alone knows where to look, it is believed. The police know of no way but hy tracking her that they may learn the secret the "Tiger Girl" keeps for a| hanged man. They have tried their stock, methods of "breaking" a prisoner, hut every one has failed. "Don't know nothing about 'em", 13 all she will mutter. J So everywhere the widow of the dead bandit leader goes she is watched and followed and hunted.

Pearman of the state's baatile, to illustrate what the prison officials are often up against in the matter of prison <1 is cipline and regulations. A young woman social 'worker, residing sometime ago in Columbia, visited the prison to take part in special- programs and to do whatever was possible to brigfaten the lives of the men and women there, She took u special interest in a young man prisoner, a "trusty." Apparently prompted by an unselfish desire to be of service, she did all she could to cast sunshine in his direction. And then one day rfhe wrotV him a letter, just a friendly missive. After a conference the prison officials decided to let the letter pass. All prison mail is censored. Other letters followed. The young woman after a while in her letters began to tell the young man of her interest in getting him free. Later on she wrote of visiting anoffier county and of calling on the judge who had sentenced him, in an effort to get the judge to work for the prisoner's liberation. In one letter,she told of going to the judge's home and of getting on her knees and praying, in his presence, that God might let the young prisoner out of prison. She wrote that she believed the Lord as well as the judge would hear her prayers. The young man answered all the young woman's letters, expressing appreciation of her interest. Then in a short time there came another letter. The judge had agreed to ask clemency for the young man on one condition?that he marry the young woman. That was the climax. The young man did not answer any more letters. Recently the prison officials received a severe letter from the young woman, now living elsewhere, in which she demanded to know why her mail was not being delivered. The officers called the prisoner before them. "Have you received all those letters?" he asked. "Yes sir," was the reply, "but I i have not answered the last three; I'm not a marrying man; I "have a \ wife at home waiting for md^ And so the young woman's ro-^i mance was all spoiled. Her last letf ter, to the prison officials, was answered by the superintendent himself, and there, is no more censoring of mail 'between these two persons.
