, Oregon Beseats Thl Decision.
' Btate Engineer Robinson has had
letter from State Engineer Lewis of
Salem, Or., calling to his attention the
decision of the Idaho supreme court In
the Walbrldge case and declaring that
unless reciprocal arrangements can be
entered Into, ha may take action to
see that water which has Its origin In
i the state of Oregon Is not used In Idaho.
He refers to the use of water from
. Sucker creek In Oreron for the lrrla-a.
tion of lands In Idaho. Aotlon of this
kind, should it be taken, would. It Is
believed, do an Injury to these projects.
It U not anticipated, l.owever, that any
action of the kind will be taken as the
permit for the use of the water to this
creek has already been Issued, and It
would be difficult If not Impossible to
revoke It. Vy
State Engineer. Robinson recently is
sued a permit to Parmer and Parker for
the use of Idaho water to Irrigate land
In eastern Oregon, Irrespective of the
fact the source of the water supply was
In this state, and because It would have
been Impractical and, in fact, small not
to have issued the permit for the water
. as It could not be used to advantage In
Idaho.
What Court's Baling Zs.
The attitude taken by the state en
gineer is favorable to reciprocal rela
tions between the states. He believes
that their interests are more or less in
common and that failure to have coop
eration would be Injurious to all of the
states Interested In the Intertwining
waters.
The supreme court In the Walbrldge
case made the following significant rul
lng:
"The state has a right to forbid and
prohibit the appropriation and diversion
0. its public waters for application and
use beyond the confines b? the state and
within the jurisdiction of another state.
"Statutes are intended to apply and
be confined In their" operation to per
sons, properties, and rights which are
within the territorial Jurisdiction of the
law-making power; and one who claims
the benefit of such laws for either per
son or property beyond the territorial
Jurisdiction of the law making power
must rest sulph claim upon a statute
granting puchlextra-terrltorlal right.
"No presumption arises, from a fail'
ure Of the state throdgh Its legislative
authority to speak on the subject, that
the state intends to; grant any right
privilege or authority under its laws to
be exercised beyond Its Jurisdiction.
"The state of Idaho has not granted
the right to appropriate and divert the
waters of this state for application to
any beneficial use beyond the confines
of the state."

Pletro Mascagn!," composer of
Dy tb International News Sorvlc.) ,
Rome, Jury KQ. The turbulent elope
ment of Pletro Mascagnl, the erratlo
composer wrlth Irma Bernini, an. allur
ing vaudeville dancer, has narrowly
escaped a traglo conclusion.
Not only did the Slgnora Mascagnl
make a desperate assault on her hus
band with a heavy house key and the
keys of old Italian houses are no mean
weapons of offensebat It Is reported
that today she attempted to . commit
ulclde.
Happily the remaining members of her
family seized and disarmed' the desper
ate woman before she could accom
plish her purpose.
Meanwhile Pletro and Irma are safely
in hiding, and It Is asserted that they
have received a romantic asylum In
the house of one of the composer's
irienas.
' lympatny With; Husband.
As the facts become clearer there is
a strong trend of excuse, If not of
sympathy, toward the man who won
fame with 'Cavallerla RusUcana," while
the feeling for the abandoned wife has
become one of discreet condolence.
Without any attempt to exculpate
Mascagnl, it cannot be denied that he
has not been overburdenedjaltlLiloniea
tlc felicity. The Slgnora Mascagnl has
doubtless been of great assistance in
spurring her clever, but dlletantte hus
band to accomplishment but the result
Cavallerla Rusticana," who eloped with vaudeville dancer, and hi family.
has been much' marital friction.'' '
It Is a case, In a word, temperamental
and' temper.
. On the one hand is a pale, militant,
haggard- wife, with angular features,
who looks quite able to "boss" any one
so sensitive as Mascagnl; on the other
is an extremely pretty and sympathetic
young woman. As a matter ' of fact,
Mascagnl has had quite an experience
with the home boss, who has very much
surprised his activity when he was
musically unproductive.
In this there lies a true regret, for
the wife has been the husbaad's - guide
and .counsellor, as well- as his virtual
manager; so that from a business colnt
of view the escape from this beneficent
Influence Is likely to be a loss to the
world. But this good management has
been shadowed by extreme Jealousy and
violent outbursts of anger.
Wild Scene Enacted.
When Mascagnl returned home after
visiting Ms amorata, whom he first met
in London and whom he had Installed
at the Costanzi theatre, there was a ter
rible scene. The angry wife declared
she had 'discovered everything," .and as
proof gave the address of the lovers'
meeting place.
Confronted with the facta, Mascagnl
told hlajriXa plamply that Jife. .with
her was Impossible and that h waa
determined to leave her . and live with
Ms irma.
Instantly Slgnora Mascagnl leaped
Into fury. She flung all available ob
jects, at her husband, and whefc he suc
ceeded In dodging these she pulled the
before-mentioned heavy key from a
door and brought It down with a heavy
whack on the composer's arm, tempo
rarily crippling him.
Then a strange thing happened. The
children sided with their father and
the mother, blinded with anger, struck
the daughter.
Stranger atill, when Mascagnl. with
limp arm, escaped from the house, the
daughter, almost as angry as her
mother, escaped also and joined her
father In his flight.
Mascagnl and his daughter made their
way to Arcachon to Join the poet
Gabriele D'Annunzlo, to one of whose
librettos the composer has been setltng
music, and there all trace of the fugi
tlves, Including Irma. is lost. It Is h-
lleved. however, that they have gone to
Paris.
Slgnora Mascagnl's outbreak was fol
lowed by a condition of collapse, but
next day, Wednesday, she woke to new
activity, and, taking her husband's
automobile she set out In pursuit. She
had proceeded as far as Florence in the
chase when friends Induced he to re
turn tO Rome to avoid furthor xin.

The scandal would hav hn mur-W

sudden and unexplained demand 'from
the public for currency changes.
The discharge of the Goddess of Lib
erty from' her Jo.b, of decorating the 6
cent piece of "nickel" Is one of the
most recent changes suggested. Sec
retary of the Treasury MacVeagh is said
to approve of sidetracking the goddess
and. In place, emblaion the "nickels"
with pictures of a buffalo possibly
rampant. Nobody seems to be displeased
with the faithful services of the God
dess on the coins, but the coin reform
ers wish a change to the buffalo. How
ever, the patriotic Daughters ef tho
American Revolution are registering vig
orous protests against displacement of
the goddess.
.....Experimenting. withpeunles Is another
currency change prominently before the
federal money makers. The Lincoln
penny was at first unsatisfactory be
cause the pennies could not be
aiacneq easily Dy bank tellers.
To coase use of copper or practically
all of ltv In making pennies Is another
reform suggested. Larger quantities of
nickel. It Is proposed, should be used In
majcing one cent pieces.
To revert to tho manufacture nf larg
er pennies, like .the old fashioned "cop
pers" of a generation or two airo. 1 ja
suggested .
Three Cent Pieces Demanded.
Recolnage of three cent nieces of a
size between that of a dime and a quar
ter is another plan. A bill authorizing
the coinage of three cent pieces passed
the house, but went on the legislative
rocks in the senate. The three cent
coins were specially demanded In Cleve
land, Ohio, where the Carfare is S cents,
Coinage of half cent pieces was also
authorised in the same bill, but was vig
orously opposed by department store
proprietors and other merchants, who
stood to lose the half cent profit on
many sales.
Slot machine operators also ODnosed
coinage of half cent and three cent coins,
declaring their machines would be val
ueless and that they would have to de
vise new machinery and build entirely
new slot machines to meet the changes
In coins.
Manufacture of a two cent Dlec. haa i
also been advocated In manv letters :
Secretary MacVeagh has received. Coin-j
age pf .the tu'penny coppers was dis-1
conunuea a decade ago and until -this
year there has been practically no pub
lic demand for such coins.
Smaller Sills Suggested,
Present style of Daoer monev also
promises to undergo a revolution. To
make all paper bills smaller is rro-
ppsed. This change is in line with the
uniform size of European currency, al
most all of which is considerably ml.
ler than United States currency. To re
duce the size of paper bills about 33 per
cent is suggested, but. loud wails of
indignation from manufacturers of miri
and bill books halted the proposed
change.
Managers of the bureau of ininv.
Ing viewed with alarm the proposal to
decrease the size of paper money. Their
engraved plates, printing Dresses and
all other machinery are designed to fit
only the present size of money. All
would be thrown in the scraD hean
and new equipment made necessary If
the proposed changes are adopted.
Aireoay a revolution in printing na-
per money is being adopted at the bu

'Philadelphia, July 20. Miss Margaret

125 pounds nd yesterday was ail dolled
up In white, with a white straw hat and
white plumes on It, and she did, not look
very formidable. But she bid defiance
to the Philadelphia Rapid Transit com

for half an hour dlscomooberated Thorn
as E. Mitten's carefully arranged sohed
ules. :
Miss Margaret entered a new near
side car at , Margaretta street, Frank
ford, In the afternoon and wanted to go
to Eleventh and Chestnut streets. She
displayed no artillery and was wholly
unwarllke as she took a . seat and pro
ceeded to read a magazine. The circus
started at the other end of the line;
" Now, ' the 'other end of the line Is
Eleventh and SansOm streets. The car
conveyed the pretty belligerent down
Tenth, street and turned out Sansom
to Eleventh. That was the place the
conductor fired all passengers or col
lected a fare for the up trip. Every
body got out but Margaret.
'End of line. Miss," said the con
ductor. "All out!"
Ho Pay for Half a Block.
Tm going to Eleventh and Chestnut
Streets," said Margaret. The distance
was all of half a block.
"Then you'll have to pay another
fare," asserted the conductor.
But Margaret renlgged. She said she
was going to Chestnut street and would
be the femnlne equivalent for dad bust
ed if she would shed another coin. Ar
guments proved unavailing. The con.
ductor pleaded, threatened and promised
to have her locked up for a year or
boiled In oil or something If she didn't
get off or pay. Margaret calmly read
her magazine.
The cars began to pile up behind and
a crowd gathered and grinned. The mo.
torman pulled his controller, but hesi
tated to swat her with It Then the
conductor hustled to find a cop.
He found one. He hastily explained
the circumstances, and the cop refused
to fall for It. He said he was on his
way to work and was noL yet on duty,
Then the conductor hustled around and
found another cop. This one walked cur
lously to the car, .thought the matter
over, and then crawfished. He said it
wasn't on his beat, anyway. The dls
gusted conductor got out a search war
rant and found another cop. This one
boldly entered the car and held converse
with Margaret.
' JJot Impressed toy Cop.
But a bluecoat and brass buttons, a
shield and a club failed to impress Mar
garet any. more than did the controller,
or the crowd. The latter, collectively,
haw-hawed, and the cop, after pleading
wrarWaTSarer tit atrmot to trast up Mr.
Mitten's plan, beat it. Said it was none

Hints on Advertising for Your
L . i i
i
By John M. Osklsoc,
The live ones among the country's
bankers are after your savings. . They
need your money for wholly legitimate
purposes, - They want to pay you a fair
price for Us use, and. they know that
they have to compete with others to get
it A class of specialists in planning to
get It is growing up.' They are the ex
pert advertisement writers. ''
One of them, manager of the savings
department of a big trust company In
St. Louis, spoke before the Mississippi
bankers recently on the technique of
this sort of advertising, .What he said
Is sound doctrine for everybody who
has. at any time, to nut toe-ether words
which will influence a customer.
"In . soliciting checking and savings
accounts," he said, "you appeal to all
classes, and there is no way to direct It
so effectively as through the columns Of
your local newspaper. r-
"Tbe second step In doing the adver
tising for our bank Is to. provide your
Self wlth'the necessary equipment, You
must have, so to speak, a kit of tools,
and that Is: Four eyes, four ears, pot
of paste, long shears, vest pocket mem
orandum book,, blue pencil, dictionary,
book of synonyms, book of autonyms,
scrap books. Two of the eyes and ears
belong to yourself, or to tha one to
whom you delegate this work, and the
other pair to your teller, and the habit
quickly developed of observing and lis
