A VISIT IN BOSTON
'Three weeks ago," Mr. Matthews said,
"Thompson cam to my office In Iloston.
He asked me, when he entered. If I re
membered him. t told him I did. t knew
him as Francis McCormlck. lie asked me
It I was still ft United States District At
torney, and I told him that t was no longer
In that office, but was handling a private
practice. 'Do you ever handle criminal
cksest' lie asked me. t said yes. 'Well,'
he said, 'I may have something for you
later.'
"I left my office with him and we went
to the City Hall, Thompson there left me
and went Into th bureau of criminal Identi
fication. He knew that circulars containing
his photograph had been sent broadcast
from Camden, and he believed that If he
he was to be Caught he would be caught.
That Is his religion. He talked with the
Iloston expert on criminal Identification and
the policemen around tho station and went
.way.
"About three Weeks ago the police called
me on the phone and said they had a client
of mine. I learned It was Thompson.
When I asked what the charge against him
waa I was greatly surprised to hear It was
first degree murder. He had been ar
rested after he advertised again In the Bos
ton papers and signed the name Doris
Ramandan, which some astute detective
knew to refer to a Hindoo feast. He knew
also That Thompson believed In the Hindoo
faith."

. School Humor
One little girl, unable to get any adult
assistance, wrote to her teacher herself this
wise:
"Dear Teacher, Please exquse me stoplng
away from skool. I got wet In the A.M.,
and a bad kold In the P.M." ,
There is so much similarity between the
Spanish and English consonants "b" and
"v" that they are hardly distinguishable.
Consequently the teacher who read the
following translation of one of his Spanish
scholars was rather more amused than
astonished:
"Then give to the world the vest you
have,
And the vest will come back to you."
The following composition goes to prove
that some children have enormous difficulty
with the Scriptures:
"Remember th Sabbath day, td keep It
hollow."
The Boy Was .light
The Sunday school teacher was making
a review of the lessons.
"Who was the wisest man, Jamet7"
"Solomon."
'That's right. Now, Frank, who was the
strongest man?" '
"Jonah.''
"Wrong.. But what reason have you for
believing Jonah was the strongest manT"
"'Cause the whale couldn't hold him after
It got him down."

CONNELLY FORSAKES
ELEVENTH WARD HOME
TO JOIN MILLIONAIRES
City Solicitor Has Beautiful
Main Line House, While Re
taining Voting Residence
in His Old Division
PROGRESS IN FEW YEARS
Most of the politicians flocked back to
the city today to line up their followers for
the fall campaign and get In touch with
the situation generally. There were no end
of curbstone conferences along the Rlalto
and a general open-air review of the po
litical changes of the last year or two.
In the course ot general discussion the
name of John P. Connelly, the present City
Solicitor, was mentioned and It was gen
erally agreed that he had made more prog
ress during the last few years than nny
of the younger men In politics. Incidental
ly, some of the regulars along the street
Were surprised, to learn that Mr. Connelly,
who Is leader of the Kleventh Ward, had
abandoned his old home at 228 Falrmour.t
avenue for a magnificent $53,000 residence
In the millionaire colony at Merlon.
This news brought general nods of ap
proval, Bhowlng that after all politicians do
not envy the progress of those whom they
believe to be deserving.
BEAUTIFUL HOME ON MAIN IJNE
The Connelly home at Merlon Is one of
th most artistic places In that beautiful
section. There Is a touch of Individuality
about th maeslve homestead. It occupies a
spacious piece of ground and Is known In
the neighborhood as the "church house" be
cause of Its odd style of architecture, It
Is just tho kind of a place for one who ap
preciates comfort and convenience.
An atmosphere of quietude pervades the
spot on which It stands. It Invites Inspira
tion and reverie. The music of the birds
and the soft hum of passing autos occa
sionally break the silence, but they, after
all. are In keeping with tho surroundings.
Roomy-looking French windows admit
the light to the substantial homestead from
all directions, and here and there Comfort-able-looking
balconies Jut out from th
massive walls.
CHARMING ENVIRONMENT
A garage, which houses one of the latest
inodol motors, adjoins the house at the rear
and Is connected with the main road by .1
spacious path. Glistening macadam roads
approach the house, which Is Bltunted so
as to command picturesque views from th
surrounding countryside.
It Is Just the kind of an establishment
which would be selected by a retired finan
cier In which to spend the evening of his
life. That the house fits In with the sur
roundings Is evident, Peeping out here and
there among the woodlands nearby are the
homes of those who lead In wealth and
social prominence. It Is, in a word, a long
step from the Falrmount avenue home,
which rented for about 20 a month, to this
palatial establishment, which rents perhaps
for S2S0 monthly,
REWARD OF HARD WORK
Mr, Connelly's success Is attributed by
his acquaintances to ceaseless energy. From
th time he was admitted to th bar In
lt9t he believed In hard work. He quickly
became prominent In the EUventh Ward
and "was soon acclaimed rta lcador. He
always had tlma to stop and shake hands
with his constituents, and wore a smile
even when the political horlton looked dark,
He waa elected to Councils and his aggres
siveness In the lower chamber soon brought
him to th forefront In many discussions.
HI seleotlon a floor leader quickly fol
lowed, as th organisation powers realised
that ha was quick to think and act and
fight far the bills he thought proper
Mr. Connelly was especially prominent
during th controversy of the Rapid Tran
sit Company agreement witn the city a
few year fcgo. Subsequently lie was elected
chairman of Councils' Finance Committee.
Despite hi many oounollmanlo activities,
Mr. Connelly found time to attend to a
Urge private practice, and was at on time
on of th corps of legal representatives ot
th Rapid Transit Company,
Th City Bolloitor's eld neighbor In th
Eleventh Ward, whtr he still maintain a
"voting resldeneo," are rejoicing at hi sue-
and wandering what hlgher-'henors and
reward await him.
John P. Connelly and Ills now home In the "millionaire" colony at
Merion. Lower photograph (middle house) shows his "voting resi
dence" at 238 Fairmount avenue, where he lived for years. Mr. Con
nelly has abandoned the Eleventh Ward, of which he is Republican
leader, for a $G3,000 palatial residence.
