WOK'I SUPP0ET HIS FATHER,
And He Tells Humane Agent O'Brien Why
He Doesn't.
John Echober, Jr., yesterday filed in the
Quarter Sessions Court an answer to the
petition of Humane Agent O'Brien, asking that
he be compelled to support his father, John
Echober. The son states that his father, who is
60 years old, deserted his wife over 20 years ago.
He is a hard drluker and profligate, and
brought his present bad fortune on himself by
his oh n vices and bad habits. He has also
served a term in tbe penitentiary.
The son states further, that he did give his
father assistance, and kept him in his house for
some time, but on account of his drunkenness,
etc he could not live with him. His father's
wife, he states, has a separate estate, and is
better able to keep him than the son, who has
a wile and family of bis own to provide for.

and Secure Booty.
Chicago, Dec. 20. Thieves drilled
through three feet of solid masonry last
night at the warehouse of McNeills &

admit a man's body. A little tinsmith's
shop adjoining the warehouse concealed the
audacious cracksmen.
Only the very finest grades of goods were
stolen, mainly silks and Irish .lipens. All
these were lo'aded in a wagon in waiting.
There is no clen to burglars or goods. The
haul was worth $3,000.

A THEOSOPHICAL ROW.
COLONEL 0LC0TT HAS BE0KEH
HADAHS BLAVATSKY.
WITH
The High Priestess of Thcosophy Gobbled
TUost of the Funds and the Colonel
Found India Rather Poor Picking The
Latter Threatens a Sensation.
.TPECIALTELEOUAJI TO THK DISPATCH. I
New York, Dec. 20. Colonel Henry S.
Olcott who left New York in 1878 with
Madame H. P. Blavatsky to establish the
Theosop'nical Society in India, has lelt her
after spending a dozen years in ber service.
The break has -been threatened for some
time, and Colonel Olcott's acquaintances
in London were not surprised when tbe news
came that he bad shaken ot? allegiance to
Madame Blavatsky and bad resigned the
post of "Kesident Founder."
A good many causes have conspired to
bring about this state of affairs, chief of
which has been Madam Blavatsky's deter
mined intention to rid herself ot him.
Madame Blavatsky's fickleness, a character
istic very prominent in her, has led her to
repeated acts of injustice to Olcott.
Tbe latter has 01 late years been iu India,
making tours to Ceylon and Europe, and
having what an overworked businessman
would call a good time. He has lived at
the theosophical headquarters near, Madras,
and been tree to run things theosophical as
he pleased until within a lew months.
During his last visit to Loudon he and
Madame Blavatsky had some hot disputes
about the management of affairs, bat it was
finally decided that she should run Europe
aud he India, and all was well for a time.
The money question has seriously troubled
the founders from the start, and for tbe past
two or three years Olcott has had a hard
time keeping np his cud of the line, because
the European branch collected and retained
the greater part of the funds. Recently
MadameBIavatsky sent a young man named
Keightley to Iudia to look after matters
there and the outcome of bis visit is tbe
resignation. Colonel Olcott is out in the
cold, and, being without a mission now, he
may try to settle his difficulties by airing his
grievances. If he should do so be could do
more to create a genuine sensation than
Madame Colomb did. It is licely, however,
that the latter will prevent him from doing
much mischief by cutting off remittances
from the treasury, and thereby forcing him
to go to work for his living.
Croup Has Lost Its Terrors.
Mr. John H. Cullom, editor of the Gar
land News, Garland, Tex., writes as follows:
"I wish to add my testimonial to the efficacy
of Chamberlain's Cough Kemedy for croup.
That dread monster has lost its terrors for
us since be began using the remedy. It
never fails to give speedy relief in the worst
cases of croup, and we always keep a bottle
in the house and recommend its nse to our
friends whose little ones are so liable to be
attacked with croup during tbe winter
months." Thsu.

It is our business to collect
rents, manage and rent prop
erty, look after taxes and muV
nicipal liens.
We Have Been Many Years in
This Business,
We ought to be, and are,
better able to manage your
property than you, yourself,
just as you know more of
your own particular business
than we do. We know how
much rent the property
should bring, and. how and
where to get good tenants for
it. We have frequently found
owners getting only about
one-half the proper rental for
their property. We issue
thousands of our rent lists in
season, daily, mailing them
free to all applicants until
they are suited.
We make no charge for ad
vertising your property on
this list. We are responsible;
any bank or "old citizen" will
tell you all about us.
Owners have as much diffi
culty in collecting from some
agents as from the tenants;
fortunately there are not
many such agents.
If you own renting prop
erty it will pay you to call
on us.
