The cow was Deing driven along Main

did also some of the grass on other hats.
The young ladies in the store stood upon

which she walked on out of the back

BEALE TESTIFIES IN

In them
The pictures referred to showed four
very nossy young ladies or the chorus,
having "a time" Jn their dressing room.
The girls were lightly garbed in dainty
lingerie which they tossed about some
ror the edification or those who could
run and sea.
This picture, said Mr. Russell, was
the only one that tha most impression
able person might be shocked at. To
prove that his pictures were such as
might be viewed with safety by a per
fect lady Mr. Russell exhibited some of
them to a license inspector and news
papermen, una set showed tne saltan s
harem, with the sultan and several of
hla voluptuaries at home. Another
showed four chorus ladles sunning
themselves that Is, most of themselves
in a meadow. The license Inspector
saia ne wain i anocked at this.
Several of the machines In the smok
ing-room bore particularly alluring
pictures on the advertising cards. When
you dropped your penny, however, these
usually proved disappointing. Instead
of Salome or the Dance of the Hourls,
one saw the New York police force on
parade or Wall street at the noon hour.
Mr. Russell explained that the pictures
at the top merely served to attract
trade.
A careful tour of the phonograph mi-
cnines waa not wnat it might nave been
so far as gratifying results were con
cerned. "Dreaming," and "Kiss Me,"
and "The Moon Is Watching You"
seemed to be aa naughty as anything
mat could t heard.
B. 8. Josselyn, president of the Port
land Railway company, said he was
deeply hurt to think that tho Ministers'
association had assumed that he knew
anything about the character of the pic
tures or songs.
"The concessions In our station are
let to the Pacific Coast Concession com
pany," said Mr. Josselyn, "and they sub
let the concession for the machines to
Mr. Russell. I knew nothing of the
character of the pictures shown and
the man whose duty It Is to Inspect
them had not yet gotten around to It.
You see the pictures have been changed
since they were first put In place and
It Is almost Impossible to watch them
each week."
"I wish to assure the Dubllc that I
will not tolerate anything of question
able character for one minute. If the
pictures are even doubtful, they must
go, and I ahall tell the people who own
the machines that either the pictures
must be changed or they must get ou.t.
We don't stand for anything Immoral
and we intend maintaining this com
pany In every way In such a fashion
that no one can take any umbrage at
what they may see or hear.
"I have already ordered a punching
bag end cane-rack scheme out of the ,
station as unrit and noisy amusements.
I do not think that the pictures being
shown in the station are as Immoral as
the billboards which are scattered
broadcast over town, but that Is not the
point, we cannot afford to have anv
question raised concerning the propriety
or anymtng connected witn our system.

pictures are not proper thev will not be

SPOTLESS ANGEL
(United Press Leased Wire.)
Ban Francisco, March 10 "Were I
thrice guilty of every charge that has
been brought against me, I'd be a spot

prosecutor and the calm dignified as
sertions of these two reverend men."
When Heney was told of Ruefs as
sertions, ha merely grinned.
