OWNER OF THE YACHT IDLER
BOBS UP AFTER SIX YEARS
Claimant of Sum Left From Sale
Must Explain Secrecy.
Another chapter In tho eventful his
tory of the steam yacht Idler will ho
written Thursday, when nil persons hav
ing claims against tho vessel are Invited
to present them to Francis M. Gumben,
nn nttorncy with offices In tho Pcnn
Squnre Hulldlng. Mr, Gumbes has been
appointed commissioner by the Admiral
ty Court to Investigate nil claims.
Six yearB ago. the case of the Idler
stirred this port as did tho trials and
tribulations of Admiral Benjamin Watt
nnd tho Haytlen navy. The vessel was
brought here from the St. Ixnvrenre
Itlver by Captain I... G. Davis to meet
prospective buyers. Tho buyers fnllcd
to appear and the owners were lost In a
hnze. Tlif rruv hprntnp Itnn.itlnnt for
I their wages and when theso were not
forthcoming, they presented tholr case
to tho United Stntes District Attorney.
He carried It before tho Admiralty Court
and the Idler was ordered sold by the
United States Marshall. Pi lor to the
sale futile attempt was made to discover
the craft's owners.
Henry U. tlnnling, of this city, was
the purchaser. After the claim of the
crew and the expenses of the sale had
been deducted a considerable sum was
left. This was turned back to the United
Stntes Court, where It has remained.
Now a claimant for the sum appears In
tho person of Owen O. Staples, of Wash
ington, D. C. He claims he was the
original owner of the yacht, nnd Is en
titled to the money. Ho will tell on
Thursdny why he did not acknowledge
this fact mIx years ago.
The Idler has changed hands several
times since nnd her whereabouts are not
known here.

On the steps "of St. Agnes' Hospital
stood a tear-stained boy this morning
whert the doorman answered the bell. '
When the door swung open tho boy, who
was neatly dressed, wiped his eyes and
said:
"Can you tell me how my cousin Joe
Is getting along?"
After the frightened lad had been In
vited Into tho reception room he iden
tified himself as William Shields, 13 years
old, of 2211 Hicks street.
"Will Joe die, do you think?" asked
William.
While several nurses and attendants
were trying to comfort the boy, the real
story ns to what led up to his visit to
the hospital was revealed. William told
his story Just like any other boy of his
ago would tell it.
"My cousin, Joe Shields, who lives nt
my house, nnd I were, playing last night
In the cellar, when we found n revolver
underneath a box. We began to play
with the levoUer. Joe picked up a can
and placed it on a chair and told mu
to shoot at it. 1 didn't know there was
a bullet In tho gun. Joo was standing
in the centre of the cellar and he told
me to fire. I pulled the trigger and then
Joo fell down. The bullet hit Joe in
stead of hitting tho can. Honest, I
wanted to hit the can. You can ask Joo
,nnd he will tell ou that I am telling
the truth."
Suddenly William got up from his chair
and snld:
"Pay, can't I see Joseph for a little
while, and If you don't believe what I
nm telling vou. why you con nsk him."
One of the nurses led William upstairs
Into one of the wards1. For a while Wil
liam stood in tho ward looking ut the
facss of several youngsters'. As he turned
his head he raised his hand nnd shouted:
"Thin Is Joe."
William rushed over to a cot which
was occupied by Joseph Shields, 13 years
old, of 2211 South Hicks street, suffering
from a bullet wound In the back. Joseph
was conscious.
"Did I mean to shoot you?" asked
William.
"No, you didn't," answered Joseph.
The wounded boy was brought to the
hospital late last night by his parents.
After the shooting William kept the
nffalr to himself for more than an hour.
Ho tried his best to treat his coublu. Ho
left the wounded boy In the cellar and
make several visits there. Then he be
came scared and confessed what had
happened,
Physicians at St. Agnes Hospltnl said
this morning that Joe has a chance to
recover. The police of the Fifteenth street
and Snyder avenue station tlrbt heard of
the shooting this morning. They are
conducting an investigation.

ZING WANG AND DENNIS
McGOVERN MIX THINGS UP
Chinaman Knocked Unconscious De
spite Alleged Use of Blackjack.
Fully a score of disgruntled customers
gathered In front of tho laundry of Zing
Wang, at Belgrade and Clearfield streets
this morning, and loudly demanded their
shirts and collars. But Wang had
troubles of his own and was meditating
upon them In a cell of the Belgrade and
Clearfield streets police station, Just
across the street from his laundry.
The Chinaman, according to the police,
attacked Dennis McGovern, of 2310 Miller
street, with a blackjack and in the light
that followed McGovern, It is declared,
knocked Wang unconscious.
For some unknown leason McGovern
was sent to the central police station for
n hearing instead of being tried befoio
Magistrate Campbell at tho station house.
The Magistrate Is a personal friend of
McGovcrn's, and It is possible that Lieu
tenant Hamilton sent the prisoner to
City Hall for reasons of his own. The
lieutenant would not discuss the subject.
McGovern wa3 sent to Moyamenslng
Prison by Magistrate Itenshaw in de
fault of ball. lie was In Jail two days
before his liberation. This morning Mc
Govern was released nnd swore out a
warrant for the arrest of Wang on tho
charge of assault and battery. Wang
had a hearing before Magistrate Camp
bell. He was held In H00 ball for court.

HOSPITAL EMPLOYE GONE
Swede Disappears After 12 Years'
' Faithful Service.
Officials of the Women's Hospital, at
I 22d street uid North College avenue, noti
I ficd tho pollro today that John Anderson,
' ona of the few main employes of tho hos
pital and the only one whoso duties took
J him Into the wards, has disappeared.
Vnderson ha.s not been seen for two
weeks, nnd the hospital authorities are
I worried about him.
I Part of the man's salary is still duo
him It Is thought that he may havo gone
back to .Sweden, his native lund, becauso
of tho European war. Anderson had
been employed at tho hospital for 12
years and was well liked. When last
seen ho carried a suit case, and this
lends color to the theory that he started
back to Sweden.
Philadelphia Is to have n real New
Year's Parade this year. That Is the de
termination of the South Philadelphia
Business Men's Association, whose mem
bers feel that tho city should tal. pvm-v
possible advnntnge of this phase of ad
vertisement, particularly since the
Kuropcan war has tended tq depress
business conditions here. It Is believed
a New Year's celebration which would
attract nation-wide attention and Interest
would materially advance the prosperity
of Philadelphia business, and any seeming
extravagance In the purchasing of cos
tumes for the event would be an Invest
ment amply repnld by the results.
The numerous clubs and organizations
which compose the smaller units of the
New Year parade have already begun to
mobollzo their forces, and the spirit of
rivniry which is always keen between
them Is (Ullte manifest oven nt this
early day. Each leader Is planning nnd
scheming for features which will draw
distinction upon his particular organiza
tion n the form of przes.
These features are guarded jealously,
for each foars a rival may take ad
vantage of tho Idea and produce some
thing even more bizarre.
An effort to advertloo the celebration
nil over tho United States and to provide
proper transportation facilities for those
who will visit tho city nt thnt time Is
being made by a commltten under the
leadership of Robert Aiken, and through
their efforts and those of the local or
ganizations, It Is believed that Philadel
phia wilt witness a celebration on De
cember 31 that will surpass nn thins of
tho kind that has been produced In thij
country.

RED LIGHT HIS UNDOING
Policeman Watches Lantern's Zig
zag Course, Then Arrest Bearer.
It is generally agreed that there are
lots of honest men in Geimantown, but
George Ducklt. of Youngstown, Ohio,
who started out to find one early this
morning, a la Diogenes, had to be sat
isfied with Policeman Kenny, who Is
equal to any emergency.
Kenny saw a red light moving down
Chelten avenue. Ho noticed that it took
p. zigzag course and was convinced it
could nut be a police patrol. Ho hid in
the shadow of a building until the light
reached him. Dueklt was the brnier,
and as he could give only a hazy expla
nation as to how he got it. the police
man took him and tho light to the
Germnntown police station.
When the piisoner hid a hearing
before Magistrate Pennock, it developed
that many other lights In Germnntown
were missing. Incidentally thfre came
wails of complaint from a dozen other
prisoners, several ileclaring that if Ducklt
had let the red lights alone last night
they would havo been able to reach home
bafely.
Dueklt disclaimed responsibility for the
disappearance of the other lights The
MagUtrnte sent him to the House of
Correction for five days.

With this service also' begins the fist,

The Orthodox Jews observe this fast so
ilgoiou.'lj that they will not ccn taste

ordinarily sleep In the recitation of the
Psalms and In other special pi avers.
Those who go home for the night will
return to the svnagogties about S o'clock

In this city the demand for seats In
the svnagogues Is so gieat that large

converted Into improvised snagoguos.
This year oven tho Arch Street Theatre
