A Woman's Freedom
May or may not be a blessing to her. The engaging
young woman who figures as the heroine of Howard
Fielding's latest story has a chance to find out wheth
er liberty pays or whether a man's guidance and pro
tection is worth the price of matrimony. Dr. Arthur
Lynde, being a hopeless invalid, tells his j'oung wife
to look upon him as dead to go out into the world
and live her life in perfect freedom. She is persuaded
into a qualified acceptance af this relief from bondage,
and passes through a variety of interesting experi
ences which teach her something about the difference
between real love and the other kind. Under the
title of
The Second Promise
Mr. Fielding's story will be published in Tiik
Tribune beginning Monday, March iS.

HER NEPHEW THE ROBBER.
A Young Man Steals His Aunt's Jewels
While on a Visit to Her Home and Is
Cornered by tho Police.
Reading, Pa., March 13. Yesterday
the residence of Mrs. Emma Levan
1030 Chestnut street, this ?clty, was
robbed of a gold watch, which she had
possessed for about forty years, and
which she valued at 150; a soltalre
diamond ring, valued at $40; a pair of
diamond earrings, valued at S260, and
three $10 bills. Nobody could then
imagine how or by whom the crime had
been committed. Almost In a twin
kling bureau drawers had been robbed
of their valuable contents while a wo
man's back was turned, and the mys
tery was enough to puzzle both Mrs.
Levan's family and the police.
The robbery was committed during
the brief absence of Mrs. Levan, who
had left her sister In charge of the
house. The latter was occupied for a
few moments in sweeping the snow
from the front steps. While thus en
gaged she had the door closed.
When Mrs. Levan returned to the
house she discovered And promptly re
ported me crime to fine ponce, wnen
the officers were oalled In they found
the bath room window open, but, as
the residence Is In one of the most thick
ly populated sections of the. city. It
would have been almost Impossible for
anyone to have entered tho house In
that manner without being seen.
Chief of Police Cullen, with Detective
Marts! and Wagner, made a thorough
Investigation. "Was there nobody else
entitled to be in the house?" they usked
of Mrs. Levan, her sister, and their 18
year-old nephew, William lllirh, who
had come up from Philadelphia on Sat
urday, to visit them for two or three
days. "Nobody," all three replied "no
body In that part of the house who
could have done It."
"And where were you at the time?'
bluntly blurted out the chief to young
High.
"Oh, I I waa here wasn't I, aunt?'
the nephew said In some confusion
turning to Mrs. Levan's sister.
The police had cornered the robber
they felt sure of It, and he was Mrs,
Levan's visiting nephew. He had In
deed been In the house during the ab
sence of Mrs. Ijevan. When finally he
was charged with the crime he at once
confessed. Then he took the otllcers ti
an outbuilding, where the money and
jewelry had been concealed, und all
were recovered.
Mrs. Levari declined to prosecute, but
decided that she never wanted to see
her nephew again. lie was according
ly sunt to his Philadelphia home.

WERT1N WANTED TO DIE
Willlamsport Parmer's Wild Attempts
at Suicide foiled.
IFE AXD DAUGHTER PURSUED
After a Hot Chnso Strychnine la Dashed
from His Llps-Thcn Ills Daughter
Heroically Disarms Uim of
a Knife.
Wllllnmfiport, Pa., March 13. A series
of most determined attempts at sulcldo
on the part of farmer Silas Wertman,
who realties neur Muncle, and suddenly
became Insane, only failed of success
yesterday because of heroic pursuit and
struggles on the part of his wife and
daughter to balk his tragic purpose.
They had a life-and-deuth chase and
tussle with him In two instances.
At dinner time Wertman, who had
no good apparent reason of despon
dency, refused to go to the table, and
then howled out in a startling, deter
mined fashion:
'I don't want anything to eat. This
Is my last day to live!"
With this wild exclamation, the head
of the family rushed from the house
toward M uncle. Ills alarmed wife and
daughter, without waiting for their
bonnets or wraps, set out In hot purslut
of the man bent on suicide. "Father,
stop!" and "Silus, please don't!" they
screamed after him us he ran.
Hut Wertman was the fleeter footed
of the three, and on he sped, evidently
determined to die. After an exciting
uce of a mile, the fugitive husband und
father reached Rankin's drug store, in
Muncie, two or three squares ahead of
Mrs. and Miss Wertman.
Just 111 Time to Save Him.
Oh, Mi'. Rankin, stop him! stop him!"
frantically cried breathless Mrs. Wert
man, as she entered the drug store
three minutes later, just behind her
duughter.
Wertman had hurriedly purchased
enough strychinne to kill a dangerous
dug," as he said to the druggist, and as
the latter's attention was diverted by
the mother and duughter, the farmer
was raising the deadly poison to his
Hps. Druggist Rankin was, however,
just in time to dash the vial from the
mini's hands as he was about to swal
low Its contents.
Having failed In his first suicidal pur
pose, Wertman ran like a madman
from the drug store, his daughter again
In close pursuit.
On an adjoining street corner he drew
out a heavy pocket knife and made a
lunge for his throat. At this instant
his daughter came up with him and
succeeded in knocking his arm aside,
A struggle for possession of the knife
ensued. It was soon ended, however,
by the appearance of Constable Narber,
who took the Insane man into custody.

1XD18TRIAL TOPICS.
The Silver Brook colliery Is now work
Ing full time, as It has been nearly all
winter, and the little time that Is being
lost Is due solely to the limited supply
of empty cars. This colliery Is expect
ed to work twelve hours per day all
summer.
C. F. King & Co. have received the
contract for the Cross Creek Coal com
pany to drive u tunnel at their Oneida
colliery. The tunnel will be 300 yards
In length und is Intended to open tip
two large coal veins recently located
The development of 'the veins will
greatly Improve the resources of this
colliery.
As an outcome of the Jersey Central,
Valley and Reading coal fight It' Is
rumored that the Central Ruilroad of
New Jersey Is after tho lease of the
North I'enn branch of the Reading,
which runs from Bethlehem to Phila
delphia. Important negotiations are
now on foot, It Is said, between the two
companies.
The Lehigh Valley Coal company will
operate the Humboldt mine hereafter.
'Phis colliery was formerly owned by
Llnderman & Skeer. Their lease having
expired, the Valley takes It up. This
colliery has been Idle for Borne time.
Llnderman & SUcer having nbandoned
It a year ugo. The Vulley will remodel
the entire plant.
Tho line of the People's railway be
tween Pottsvllle und Mlnersvllle hui
been abandoned us a passenger Hteatn
rotid and H-wheel trolley corn, of the
Schuylkill Klectrlc Hallwuy compuny,
began trnlllc. The fure has been re
duced, und a telegraph line constructed
to prevent accident on account of the
coal train trafllc, which Is nt II 1 contin
ued by the Lehigh Valley railroad.
At Oneida the greatest activity Is now
manifest about the Coxo collieries. The
two veins which were proved through
bore holes a short time ago, will be do
veloped as soon as possible. Contracts
were let on Saturday to Charles F,
King & Co., to drive a tunnel 300 yards
In length. This tunnel will open Into
the veins Indicated, and Will prove a
valuable adjunct to the collieries' re
sources. At other collieries In
region similar activity Is now going on
and from Indications there will bo no
lack of work In that region this sum
mer.
Tho Lehigh Valley and Jersey Central
Railroad companies have Issued their
new tariff sheets, quoting the rates on
coul from the mines to Junction points
with the Reading railroad. This new
tariff Is only applicable on coal shipped
for Philadelphia or points on the Read
Ing road. The local tariff which has
been In effect to point on the Lehigh
Valley and Jersey Central roads Is not
to be changed. The Lehigh Valley's
new anthracite coal tariff rate to East
Penn Junction and South Bethlehem,
for points on connecting railroads. Is
81 cents a ton for prepared sixes of coal
from the Lehigh and .Schuylkill regions;
71 cents on pea and 66 cents on smaller
sizes. The rate from the Wyoming
region is $1.05 on prepared sizes, 88
cents on pea and 79 cents on smaller
sizes. The Lehigh Valley company has
issued a notice to the shippers, an
nouncing the withdrawal of all through
tariffs on coul with the Reading com
pany. It was said In railroad circles
that the coal dealers were willing to
pay the advance, so that they could
get Lehigh coal, they claiming that it
was worth that much more.

STOCKS AND BONDS.
New York, March 13. After a Btrorig
openlng the stock market became Ir
regular owing to the revival of reports
ubout a reduction In the New York
Central dividend. This stock was sold
down to ll4, but the bulk of the Belling
was considered professional und for
that reason without slgnlllcance. So
fur as the dividend Is concerned people
who huve enjoyed the confidence of in
siders in the past state that In their
opinion tho regular rate will be main
tained. Nothing definite, however, is
known. Operators generully devoted
their time principally to dividend mat
ter ami business suffered in conse
quence. In the afternoon there was a
little more doing and prices moved up
all along the line. Speculation closed
