twenty minutes en the mtcruibau and
turns up with a whale nf an appetite,
for supper at 0:110 or thereabout.
Allowing for Sundays, holidays and;
ether interruptions of the scheduled
performance, he spends 11,"0 hours ui
year this way, and in twenty-four I
years of daily commuting he hasvvhilcd!

Add te this the 4".5 hours consumed I
In his weekly trips during the first
three years, and we have 20,070 tieuis,
or ii little mere than 1211 days.
Three, and Half Years On Cars
The logical conclusion from this
brilliant train of thought Is that Mr.
Grill has passisl mere than three and
one-third solid years en the public car
riers. Had he lived In Philadelphia
lie could have spent all that in sleep.
Mr. Grill's nearest approach te an
accident occurred some years age,

FATHER SCOFFS AT CHARGE
New Yerk, Oct. 8. Francis Kluxcn.
Jr., n fourteen-year-old boy, wls nr
rested Inte last night by the authorities
in Madisen, N..T., and charged with the
murder of twelve-year-old Jcaimettc
Lawrence.
The arrest came, after several hours
of auctioning, In which the lad stoutly
denied that he had killed the girl wbetc
body was found in the weeds owned by
the youth's father.
Suspicion turned toward FranclB
early yesterday afternoon, the autheri
ties said. At that time his parents
were 'nstructed te keep the boy in the
house and where the police could watch
him.
Suspicion was directed toward jeung
Kluxcn when It was noticed he acted
nervously near the scene of the crime.
He was with his father at the time,
and when the parent left a policeman
questioned the boy. All he would say
was, "It's awful," and trembled all
ever, the policeman said. Later n
schoolgirl friend of the dend girl re

Early today young Kluxcn was taken
te the county Jnll at Morristevvn and
submitted te further questioning.
'They haven't a thing en the boy,"
his fnther, Francis Kluxcn, Sr., de
clared after the examination.
"Hew could he come into the house
after a crime like that, eat supper

that be attacked and killed the girl.
Stabbed Score of Times
An autopsy performed en the body of
Jeannettc by the medical examiner
showed that the girl had bc-n attacked.
She had been stnbhed mere thau a score
of times.
Jcnnnette was tall and strong. With
her athletic figure, bobbed blonde hair
and quick stride, she might easily have
been mistaken for a lass well in her
teens.
She hnd been minding the baby of
Mrs. J. A. G. Sandt ou Thursduy after
school, and n few minutes ufter Ti
o'clock started down the aveuuc toward
her own home, 2."0 yards nway, en
Illdgedale avenue, close te the corner.
Hetweeii the two houses, en the
right side of the street, lies n stretch
of timber and brush, ktiewn as Kluxcn's
Weeds, filled with ravines. Hillocks and
refuse. Darkness was just beginning
te settle when Jcnnnette reached the
weeds. Shu did net nttempt u short
cut through, for her parents had warned
her against It. Besides, the few feet
saved was tneie than offset by the diffi
culty of walking through the shrubbery.
Mether Heard Cry
Hut when just half way past the
gloomy stretch of broken land Jean
nette was seized from behind.
She screamed, for Mrs. J. V. Law
rence, her mother, in the cottage a
hundred yards away, heard the cry
sound shrill, then gurgle out us the
assailant's fingers sank Inte the child's
threat. Mrs. Lawrence weut te the
deer and cnlltd, but no reply came and
i.he heard no further sounds.
Jeaimcttc. lighting every feet of the
way. was dragued deen into the shrub
bery, out of sight of the streets, for
there arc no lights en the avenue. Her
clothing was tern off in the struggle,
and then te silence her. her assailant
struck her directly in the face with
clenched list, stunning the girl.
With a short lengtll of hempen
twine he tied her hnnds behind her.
crossing the wrists nnd pulling the
twine snug in what Is locally known
as a "rosebush hitch.'1 a knot that
does net come out easily.
He half-dragged, half-carried her. as
the broken shrubbery showed, until he
reached a depression in the ground
near where n big tree hnd been felled
and the trunk sawed In halves.
He killed her before he left, sinking
a knife deep in her threat, again into
her heart and again and again into
her body, until twentv-feur wound
were made. With a tern piece of the
child's waist be made a gag and forced
it between Lcr teeth. Anether fragment
of garment he tied nbeut her threat,
se that if she should recover conscious
ness, despite the wounds, she could net
cull for help.

Man's Tale Improbable
Anether angle of the controversy
ns te who occupied the room In which
President Lincoln died was brought te
light here today.
Henry W. Lltllefield. of 2T, West
Walnut lane, supports (he contention,
of the late William T. Clurkc that he
occupied It.
Mr. Llttleliehl n white-hnlred vet
eran of the Civil War. has observed
the recent accounts of the discussion
in which ThuinaH Procter, aged Inmate I
of the New Yerk Cilv Poerhouso, Is
presented as thc'lcnant of the room
Inte which (he dying President was
carried after his assassination.
Mr. LlHl"ficlil snvs he bus felt it a
dutv te his dcml friend te make public
the facts a he is acquainted with them
for he declares that no person ether
than Mr. Clarke and himself occupied
the room nt thut time.
"Chirke.'- snid Mr. Littlefield.

he rented from Mrs. Petersen, and
also the bed which later became the
President's deathbed.
"The loom was en the first fleer,
but it was necessary te mount a flight
of steps te this fleer from the street.
Entrance te It wns made threugli a
narrow ha'lway that opened onto the
front of the house, nnd ran along one
side of the building toward the rear.

1 front Hosteu, where I had been nn a

verts in almost every particular the
story told by Themas Procter.
Mr. Littletield t.ays iIhtc I n bare
possibility that Clarke had another tem

never been told of it. and the ledger
must hnve been iiwnv for at least n
week prier te the is:islnatien. for he
himself occupied the bed with Clarke,
almost up te that fatal night.
Clarke s lips are sealed in death, and
his own lirst-hnnd account of the affair
is lest forever. Meanwhile the next
move Is for the Procter adherents.
