An Old California Miner Returns to His Home After Forty-Eight Years. SCHENECTADY, N. Y., October 19.__Niskayuna, a township in this county, has turned out an Enoch Arden case that probably beats all records as to the time of the husband's absence from his home. Away back in 1849, when gold was discovered in California, Nicholas Van Vranken was among the men in this vicinity who left comfortable homes to try their fate on the Pacific Coast. For two years husband and wife corresponded regularly, and the former sent substantial remittances to his wife. Then letters ceased coming from the West. After waiting fifteen years, Mrs. Van Vranken came to the conclusion that her husband was dead, and married a man named Ferguson. For twelve years they lived happily together, and then he died. Since the death of her second husband Mrs. Van Vranken has made a living by doing housework for neighbors. Mrs. Van Vranken was interrupted in her labors about the house Saturday afternoon by a knock at the back door. Upon opening it, she saw standing before her a rugged, hearty-looking old man, who asked if she was Mrs. Nicholas Van Vranken." "I was once..." MEAT MARKET F W. Fleischmann, PROPRIETOR.

For twelve years they lived happily to-gether, and then he died. Since the death of her second husband Mrs. Van Vranken has made a living by doing housework for neighbors. Mrs. Van Vranken was interrupted in her labors about the house Saturday afternoon by a knock at the back door. Upon opening it, she saw standing before her a rugged, hearty-looking old man, who asked if she was Mrs. Nicholas Van Vranken. "I was once," was the reply, "but now I am Mrs. Ferguson." "No, you are not, for I am your husband that left you forty-eight years ago," he said. Explanations were soon made, and there was a happy time in that house that night. The news of the home-coming of Mr. Van Vranken spread rapidly, all day Sunday and yesterday he received a large number of callers. It seems that Mrs. Van Vranken's letters after the first two years never reached her husband, and he gave up writing to her. "Yes, I am glad to get back," said Mr. Van Vranken. "I have wandered enough. I am now nearly 80 years old, and I guess I will settle down for the short time I have in this world." Three hundred and seventy-four out of the 382 private and State banks of Kansas have made their report to Bank Commissioner John W. Breidenthal, and they have verified his prophecy that the increase in deposits would amount to $7,000,000. This is an increase over last year of 45 per cent. Mr. Breidenthal attributes it to the wonderful cleaning up of private indebtedness under the squeeze of money loaners during the past five years, thus leaving the people with a surplus when their stupendous crop was marketed. The national bank reports have not yet been made, but it is estimated that they will show an increase of about $3,000,-000, making the entire increase in deposits nearly $10,000,000. The entire deposits of the State are estimated at $42,000,000, which means $30 per capita in available cash, a condition unprecedented. For Sale At a Bargain.

Finding the Bones of a Man Who Was Murdered a Long Time Ago. LIVERMORE, Oct. 20.—The skeleton of a man was found this afternoon by Fred Mally while he was excavating a cellar for a new building in the center of Livermore. The skeleton was that of a man of ordinary height, and the bones were perfet, none of them being broken or decayed. They were found only three feet below the surface of the ground, and the old residents of Livermore say that they represent a tragedy that happened years ago, and which has always been a mystery until now. Many years ago, when the town of Livermore was but a little roadside settlement and overnight station on the road between San Jose and Stockton and Sacramento, there was always a strange collection of people there. Vaqueros from the surrounding ranches would come to meet the travelers that passed through on their way to and from the San Joaquin valley, and were compelled to stay overnight at Livermore. There was always much gambling, and games sometimes ran high and furious. One night there came a traveler to Livermore who never went out of there. What became of him no one knew. He rode into the town in the evening, giving his name as Captain Smith, and after his dinner became interested in a game of cards. He played long and late, until his only opponent was a half-breed Mexican. That was the last that was seen of Captain Smith, and the next day it was currently reported that he had been stabbed and killed by the half-breed. The latter was arrested, but even the body Captain Smith had disappeared, and it could not be proved that the man was dead. The mystery of Captain Smith's disappearance has passed down the history of Livermore, and the old settlers of the place say that the bones found are those of the missing man, and that the half-breed, long since dead or missing, stabbed the traveler and buried the body to avoid conviction. The old SNAP SHOTS AT THE NEWS Up to 6 a.m., Oct. 19, the Watsonville sugar factory had run 1180 hours, had sliced 50,249 tons of beets, and had produced 6282 tons of sugar. The crop is over one-third harvested. The Statistical Beet-Sugar Association of Magdeburg makes the following estimates of the production of beet sugar, including molasses, for 1897: Germany, 1,790,000 tons, as compared with 2,821,000 tons in 1896; Austria, 822,000 tons, as compared with 927,000 tons in 1896; France, 751,000 tons, as compared with 703,400 tons in 1896. In the Circuit Court of Danville, Ill., the jury in the breach of promise suit of Mrs. Carrie Corbett against J. H. Gernand returned a verdict for the plaintiff for $54,000. The defendant is 71 years of age and the wealthiest citizen in the county. The plaintiff is a widow, 34 years of age and a seamstress. It is said they went to San Francisco on the Christian Endeavor excursion, registering at several places as man and wife. The trial occupied two days. For ten days a woman was Governor of Idaho, not as the result of election, but Governor nevertheless, empowered with executive authority and exercising it. This woman is Miss Margaret Reeve, private secretary to Secretary of State Lewis. She acted during the temporary absence of the Governor and most of the State officials, who had left signed documents in blank for her to use. Among other things Miss Reeve issued a request for the extradition to Montana of Dr. Veno, a notorious healer arrested at Pocatello on a warrant sworn out at Butte. Mrs. George Smith of New York, wife of the foreman of the Morrisana Silk Works, took her husband's pistol from the drawer to amuse her children and quiet the baby, and began snapping the hammer. She continued pulling the trigger until the cylinder had completed its rotation, all but one chamber. Then, pointing the weapon directly in the face of the infant, she pulled again. A loud report followed and the baby fell dead with a bullet large car, which had on exhibition glass and wire cage containing snakes. The crowd was so great that cage was crushed, allowing the reptile to run at large. Among the collection were a number of Black Diamond ratts snakes, measuring from five to eleven feet long. They were stepped upon by the crowd and several persons we bitten. All the doctors in town were summoned to give their medical aid. Mrs. W. E. Hadley of San Diego the recent defendant in the celebration breach of promise suit brought by our Melcher in Maine, has arrived at his home in San Diego. She is a handsome woman of agreeable manners and much apparent worldly wisdom. She discussed the trial, which resulted in verdict against her for $1,879, with much feeling, claiming that there were little or nothing to it; that it was frightened by the political enemies of Congressman Dingley, whose niece she is, with the hope of in some way injuring her uncle. The Warmest Place on Earth is actually a town, and not merely a locality. It lies in San Diego county's desert side about twenty-five miles due west of Yuma and the name of its Postoffice-Mammoth Tank. This information has been dug up through the posting of a newspaper at San Francisco addressed to "Hank Johnson, Warmest Place on Earth." I was sent in turn to Sacramento, Fresno and Bakersfield. The marking continues: "Try Yuma." But Yuma sent it to Tucson. It visited Nogales. At Phoenix it was hung up as a humorous exhibit. There some desert prospectors saw it, and they proceeded to enlarge the Postmaster's geographical and social understanding for Hank Yohnsen is not a "yoke," but a prominent citizen of the Warmest Place on Earth, Cal. Several Populist leaders of Kansas have sent a letter to Ignatius Donnellio of Minnesota informing him that his appeals for aid for Mrs. Mary E. Lease fall on deaf ears. Donnelly in his news paper is asking Populists to contribute 10 cents each to the fund to be used to redeem Mrs. Lease's home in Wichita on mortgage on which was forgiven. A FISCAL DEFICIT. Expenditure Exceeded / the Revenue by $11,000,000 - Pension Payments Larger and Expected to Increase. The fiscal year 1898 starts off with a deficit of nearly $11,000,000 in the United States treasury for the first month in spite of the fact that the receipts were greatly swelled by the rush of importers to get goods into the country before the new tariff act went into effect and by the heavy purchases of beer stamps by brewers to save the 14 per cent rebate. Owing to these two causes the receipts for the month of July, the first of the fiscal year, were swelled to an aggregate of $39,027,368 25, or $10,000,000 more than the normal receipts for a month under the old tariff law. For July of last year the receipts from all sources were $29,029,209 33. Large as were the receipts for the month, the expenditures were still larger, amounting to $49,893,000 as against $42,088,468 05 for the same month last year. More than $5,000,000 of this increase is on account of public works under the direction of the war department brought about by the large appropriations of the last congress for river and harbor improvements. Of this amount $3,500,000 was paid in a lump for the purchase of the improvements of the Monongahela river from a private corporation. The pension bill for July amounts to $14,958,000. This is $2,000,000 more than July last year and indicates that the estimate made by the pension office two years ago that pensions would begin to decrease during this year was not well founded. On the contrary, the aggregate pension expenditures for the current year will be the heaviest in the history of the government. The appropriation, which is the same as for last year, is more than $141,000,000. It is inevitable that there must be a deficiency appropriation in addition, which will bring the total pension expenditures for the year to more than $150,000,000. The treasury receipts for August were far below those for July, as owing to the anticipatory importations and purchases of beer stamps, both customs and internal receipts will be light. Internal revenue receipts were expected to be normal again in September, but customs will yield comparatively little for some months to come. W.C. Ford, chief of the bureau of statistics, has presented to the secretary of the treasury a report on the loss of revenue owing to anticipatory importations during March, April, May and June. It foots up $36,296. Is there a romance in the life of W.J. Bryan which he has kept sacred Mrs. George Smith of New York, wife of the foreman of the Morrisana Silk Works, took her husband's pistol from the drawer to amuse her children and quiet the baby, and began snapping the hammer. She continued pulling the trigger until the cylinder had completed its rotation, all but one chamber. Then, pointing the weapon directly in the face of the infant, she pulled again. A loud report followed and the baby fell dead with a bullet hole in its head. Throwing the weapon on the floor the terrified woman grasped the little one to her breast and rushing to the door, shrieked "I've killed my baby." She was seized by neighbors and the dead child taken from her arms. Mrs. Smith was removed to a station house, where she lies in an almost insane condition. Judge Webb of Fresno on Friday afternoon handed down a decision in the case of the people ex rel John Landers vs. Sunset Irrigation district, which practically dissolves the district. When the district was organized, forty acres of land were cut up into as many lets and twenty-five of these given to as many individuals in order to make them freeholders qualified to sign a petition to the board of supervisors to establish the district. Judge Webb decides that twenty-five freeholders in question were not qualified freeholders within the meaning of the law; that the petition was worthless and that the acts of the supervisors under it were null and void. Over a million dollars is involved. W.A. Clark, the Alamitos sugar manufacturer, made a payment on Friday afternoon of $40,500, which is ten percent of the purchase price. Cerritos ranch. This payment was made to the Title Insurance & Trust Company of Los Angeles, which furnished an unlimited certificate of title on Monday, October 25th. The balance of the purchase price, $364,500, is to be paid on or before December 1, 1897. The deal involves the purchase of $8176 acres of fertile land. The land adjoins the present Alamitos beet-sugar ranch and factory owned by Mr. Clark and his brother, J. Ross Clark. The Alamitos factory will double its capacity and the new lands will be utilized in the sugar industry. The Clarks are going over the land carefully with a view to increasing the stock yards and dairy product, constructing fertilizer works, water works and laying off of a townsite. Without intending to, perhaps, Geo.M. Pullman, the palace car magnate, dishherited his twin sons, George M.Jr. and Sanger. They received none of the ten to forty millions he is reported to leave left. Their own conduct is responsible for this display of parental displeasure. The Pullman twins are 23 years old, but they have seen much more of the world than their father had at the same age. In fact they have lived so rapidly that they have often called down on themselves severe words of reproof. Ten days before his death Pullman grew indignant over some act of his sons that raised irate to a much higher point than usual,and he announced that he would make another will in which bequests the boys should not appear. He was as good as his word. But there is no doubt that when he made he will had no thought of dying for years,and was sure he could change his mind whenever he wished. But he did not get the opportunity. Death came too quickly. Is there a romance in the life of W.J. Bryan which he has kept sacred Mrs. George Smith of New York, wife of the foreman of the Morrisana Silk Works, took her husband's pistol from the drawer to amuse her children and quiet the baby,and began snapping the hammer.

The treasury receipts for August were far below those for July, as owing to the anticipatory importations and purchases of beer stamps, both customs and internal receipts will be light. Internal revenue receipts were expected to be normal again in September, but customs will yield comparatively little for some months to come. W. C. Ford, chief of the bureau of statistics, has presented to the secretary of the treasury a report on the loss of revenue owing to anticipatory importations during March, April, May and June. It foots up $36,296,030.44. Mr. Ford suggests that about 10 per cent of this amount should be deducted on the ground that part of the increased importations should be attributed to increased prosperity. On the other hand, about $10,000,000 should be added for July, for which Mr. Ford has not received complete returns, thus making $40,000,000 a conservative estimate of the revenue lost. Mr. Ford's table shows that the sugar importers saved $2,050,644.10 on the duties on the raw sugar imported during the four months covered by his report. That his figures as to this item are not larger is due to the fact that sugar duties were ad valorem under the old law and the invoice valuations this year were much smaller than last. The imports for the four months last year were 1,531,173,771 pounds, valued at $36,168,923, while for this year the imports were 2,440,779,653 pounds, valued at $44,885,049. A few weeks ago the editor was taken with a very severe cold that caused him to be in a most miserable condition. It was undoubtedly a bad case of la gripe and recognizing it as dangerous he took immediate steps to bring about a speedy cure. From the advertisement of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and the many good recommendations included therein, we concluded to make a first trial of the medicine. To say that it was satisfactory in its results, is putting it very mildly, indeed. It acted like magic and the result was a speedy and permanent cure. We have no hesitancy in recommending this excellent Cough Remedy to any one afflicted with a cough or cold in any form.—The Banner of Liberty, Libertytown, Maryland.

In fact they have lived so rapidly that they have often called down on themselves severe words of reproof. Ten days before his death Pallman grew indignant over some act of his sons that raisedire to a much higher point than usual,and he announced that he would make another will in which bequests the boys should not appear. He was as good as his word, but there is no doubt that when he male the will he had no thought of dying for years, and was sure he could change his mind whenever he wished. But he did not get the opportunity. Death came too quickly. Is there a romance in the life of Wm. J. Bryan which he has kept sacredly guarded from the world? This is what is being asked by the members of the party who accompanied Mr. Bryan on his tour in Kentucky last week. At Loretto there is a school for girls in charge of the Nazareae Sisters. When the Bryan special reached Loretto the school girls gathered to greet the silver leader. Then the sisters in charge pressed forward. One by one they clasped his hand and passed on The sixth stopped, raised her cowl, and looking up, said: "Mr. Bryan, I knew you long ago." Mr. Bryan was startled. He leaned forward and a name was whispered in his ear. He still clasped the hand of the nun, whose cowl had fallen back and revealed a face which showed traces of great beauty. There was a whispered conversation, but not until the train moved slowly on its way did they break their hand clasp. "I knew her long ago," was the only explanation Mr. Bryan gave to his party. Eighteen years ago, when James Fear of Elwood, Ind., died, he left a young wife and a six months' old son in destitute circumstances. Being unable to properly care for her baby, Mrs. Fear placed him in the Orphans' Home and came to California to reside. Several years later she married quite a wealthy man and then sent back for her son. The boy in the meantime had been adopted by a rich bachelor, who had taken him to England, and his mother was unable to find him, although the search for him was never abandoned. Not long since, while in Chicago, she met on a principal street a young man who bore a striking resemblance to herself and whom she at once believed was her son. She addressed him and after some explanation found that her surmises were correct. He had just returned from England to search for his mother, his benefactor having died and left him his fortune. They are visiting relatives in Indiana before returning to California. Wednesday afternoon Capt. Handy sailed for a point sixty miles up Copper River on the schooner W. S. Phelps. With him were twenty-eight miners from Los Angeles and San Francisco. The schooner was manned by Capt. Ross, a mate, and two able seamen. Bowen and fourteen other miners, who had paid $200 each for their fare, abandoned the trip some days previously. Their reason for doing so was that they did not believe the vessel to be seaworthy. The schooner sailed October 13, but began leaking, and was forced to return for repairs. Capt. Handy was then petitioned by fifteen of the passengers to return their money but he refused. Handy's partner, G. M. Perrine, having also refused a similar request, Bowen brought a criminal suit. Thirty girls, four boys and two men employed in Morris Cohn's shirt factory in Los Angeles went on a strike last Wednesday noon, completely tying up the establishment. The factory was opened just one year ago. Cohn imported at that time an experienced foreman and forewoman from San Francisco, who became very popular among the other employees. All went well until last Monday, when Cohn attempted to add to his staff a man named Whitney and his wife from Chicago. Cohn said he employed Whitney because he was a good boss and the old employees were given to understand that Whitney was to take the place of the old foreman and Mrs. Whitney the place of the forewoman as soon as they had learned the details of the business. This created friction and when Whitney began to exercise his authority as boss,the workers broke out in open mutiny.The girls were forbidden to talk while at work or look out of the windows.The crisis came when Whitney reprimanded a fifteen-year-old boywho was a great favorite in the factory;for looking out of the window to watch firemen working on a burning building nearby.Witney and the boy came to blows.Then every girl,boy and man in the factory walked out.OOne of the girls went back after reaching the street and the rest threatened to snatch off her wig and otherwise berated her.The angry women then waited on Proprietor Cohn and gave him a severe tongue lashingcharging him with paying Chinese wages and trying to run a sweat shop.The strikers say they will not sow another stitch until Cohn gets rid of Mr. and Mrs.Witney,Cohn says he will not discharge them.He is advertising for new help.

Donnelly in his news-making Populists to contribute each to the fund to be used to Mrs. Lease's home in Wichita,orage on which was forclosed lady instituted the proceedings for divorce in January, 1895, alleging cruelty and desertion. The complaint recited a long list of charges wherein the husband was alleged to have been habitually drunk, to have thrown lamp chimneys and other missiles at his wife, to have applied opprobrious language to her, and to have inflicted upon her grievous mental injury. All of these charges the husband denied, but the decree of divorce was granted. Then Williamson, who is now in San Antonio, Tex., made a motion to set aside the judgment, asking for a new trial. This motion Judge Ballard granted three months ago on condition that Williamson pay to the court for the benefit of Mrs. Williamson the sum of $200 before Aug. 20. Williamson failed to comply with this condition, and on Friday the order was made to deny the motion to have the judgment set aside. Not since 1892 has the potato crop of the United States proved so nearly a failure, according to Eastern advises. Compared with the liberal crop of last year there is an apparent falling off of nearly 30 per cent in tonnage, and the quality of the crop is greatly deficient. County and township returns from all the leading potato growing states show the yield to be 174,000,000 bushels, against 245,000,000 in 1896. From the last annual report of the largest beet sugar manufacture in (Culumsee, Prussia) Germany we learn that 146,340 long tons of beets were converted into sugar for the season of 1896-97. The average cost per gross ton of beets was $4 20. The cost of conversion was $1 40 per ton. The capital of the company owning the factory is 1,300,000 marks. The total net profit for the year was 171,345 marks. A dividend of 12 per cent, amounting to 156,000 marks was paid, leaving 15,354 to be carried to surplus account. With an average yield of 124 tons of beets per acre, the factory consumed the product of nearly 12,000 acres. The growers received an average of $52 50 per acre for beets delivered at the works.

Upon investigation it was found that Shepherd's safe had been blown open and nearly all the contents taken away. Sheriff Burr was notified by telephone and accompanied by a deputy sheriff, he went to Norwalk to investigate. The officers are satisfied that three men were engaged in the work, and that they were experienced in the business. Raymond Allen, the 12-year-old son of A. Allen, stenographer in the Circuit Court of Springfield, Mo., went to school in that city the other morning, carrying a portion of a stick of dynamite. The explosive which the boy had found in a stone quarry was in his pocket with a knife, top, marbles and a quantity of other things common to boys' pockets. In getting to his seat the boy banged his dangerous collection of his old junk against the desk, which caused an explosion which will probably cost his life, and which was heard for several blocks. The child's right hand was blown off, and in his right groin a terrible wound was inflicted, from which the surgeons say the boy cannot recover. The teacher, Miss Mack, who was standing close by had her skirts torn into shreds, but she was not hurt. The explosion caused a panic among the other scholars, and several were hurt in trying to get out the building.

So much lead was discovered that a consultation was held with Secretary Gage, and it was decided to employ a force of fifty clerks to go over the counting in detail. The task will consume six months and will cost the government $25,000. Hulda Johnson and John Howard of Oakland were married at Stockton in the study of the Methodist church by Rev. Philo Phelps. The wedding was a quiet affair and only two witnesses and the sexton were present while the ceremony was being performed. The couple kept the wedding secret, and after leaving the church disappeared completely. When Miss Johnson arrived in Stockton she set about arranging for the wedding. She visited the county clerk's office and learned that she could secure a license, then called upon a minister and engaged him to perform the ceremony. Howard arrived on the evening train from the bay and the couple were married immediately. Hulda and Jack Howard were entangled in a case at Oakland several months ago in which he tried to criminal operation. Howard was named as the man responsible for the girl's condition, but he was acquitted at the trial. Howard and Hulda occupied adjoining cells at the jail and became quite friendly before the trial. Another chapter was finished when they were married in Stockton. Gen. Miles, Commanding-General of the Army, has made his annual report to the Secretary of War. He commends the efficiency of the army, and speaks of the progress that has been made on both the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts in the matter of fortifications. He asks that Congress authorize two more regiments of artillery to garrison the new fortifications, and also five additional regiments of infantry. He devotes considerable attention to Alaska, and says that the waters of Alaska should be thoroughly examined by the naval forces and that there should be at least three military posts established in the Territory to support the civil authorities. He refers to the improved condition of the Indians and recommends that the policy of employing army officers as Indian agents be continued. He makes recommendations in detail for the protection of coast points, and says that the maximum peace footing of the army should be one enlisted man to every 1000 population, and the minimum, one to every 2000. The courtroom of Judge Tuthill in Chicago, before whom the Luetgert murder case was tried, was the scene of vadalism that has no parallel in the annals of sensational trials.

Sections of the improvised desk used by newspaper reporters during the tedious ordeal were even carried off by the It upon her land in such a manner as to cause damage, and that she stopped the culvert to protect her property. The defendant is the wife of Capt. A.C. Taylor of the United States Army. Mrs. Taylor returned from Massachusetts a few days ago to be present at the trial. Capt. Taylor remained at his post, but his disposition was taken. The suit is being warmly contested and attracts a deal of attention. By reason of the action of the Superior Court of San Diego county in citing Acting Warden Edgar of San Quentin prison to appear and show cause why he should not be punished for contempt of court in having failed to hang Murderer Ebanks on the 8th of this month, the office of the Attorney-General, being the legal adviser of all state officers, Edgar will look to him as the proper person to handle his interest in the contempt proceedings. The Attorney-General is also the nominal prosecutor of all actions brought in the name of the people, and as the Ebanks murder case was such an action, the District Attorney of San Diego county will expect the Attorney-General to be behind him in the proceedings to have Edgar fined for contempt of court. Acting Attorney-General Garter says he is undecided as to which side of the issue he will take. He admits that Edgar has the right to ask and expect his assistance and advice in the contempt proceedings, yet, in his words, "the office of the Attorney-General stands for the enforcement of the laws," and Edgar is the defendant in an action that has to do with an action that was nominally prosecuted by the Attorney-General. The general merchandise store of L.E. Shepherd at Norwalk was entered at an early hour Friday morning by burglars who blew open the safe and secured $65 in money and many valuable papers. Knives and other articles were taken from the store. The presence of the burglars was discovered by L.L.Bretner, who conducts a hardware store adjoining the place and who sleeps in the rear of the building. His attention was attracted by a noise at the front door, and, grasping a lamp and a revolver, proceeded to investigate. He went to the front door and found that the screen had been fastened from the outside. While in the act of forcing it open, a revolver was fired at him from the outside. The ball crashed through the window and the bullet, its force spent, emerged through the screen and fell at his feet. Bretner extinguished the lamp and retreated toward the rear of the store. He opened fire in the direction of a tree immediately in front of the store, behind which he believed his assailant had taken refuge. Simultaneously there was an explosion in the adjoining store, caused by the powder placed in Shepherd's safe, and followed by the noise of re- The courtroom of Judge Tuthill in Chicago, before whom the Luetgert murder case was tried, was the scene of vadalism that has no parallel in the annals of sensational trials. Certain of the spectators took advantage of the absence of the bailiffs and seized every portable piece of stationary. Sections of the improvised desk used by newspaper reporters during the tedious ordeal were even carried off by the morbid crowd. Fearing the relic hunters would grow desperate and demolish fixtures, a policeman was detailed inside the bar. A few ornaments which remained after the chamber had been abandoned were hastily removed across the hallway. The gavel which Judge Tuthill has wielded to keep the feminine section of the attendance seated has disappeared. So bare was Judge Tuthill's desk of court materials that had the jury returned and he been summoned to receive their findings he would have had to send to a neighboring store for paper and writing material. During the temporary absence of the Judge and clerks the bailiffs at the door relaxed the vigilance. While they were gone the sections of the long wooden writing benches were removed. These were cut in squares of a foot so that they might be hidden under an overcoat without exciting suspicion should any of the wardens be encountered. When Clerk Knoch returned he took means to discourage further attempts on the part of the souvenir hunters. The drawers of Judge Tuthill's desk were unlocked and the books and papers removed to Judge Horton's room. The electric light bulbs and globes were securely fastened so that they could not be made away with by the morbidly inclined. A guard was instructed to watch the furniture and arrest anybody who tried to leave his initials in the pillars. Judge Tuthill, in the course of his frequent communications with the courtroom by telephone, inquired after his gavel and inkstand. He said he was particularly anxious to keep both as mementos for his wife. When he was told that all the small articles were gone he expressed himself in vigorous language. Group Quickly Cured.
