FARMER BLEW OUT
THE GAS AND DIED
His Home Was at South Auburn, Sus
quehanna County.
LOOKS LIKE A CASE OF SUICIDE
John Lose Went luto the Bristol
louse Wednesday aud Was As
signed to a Boom--Yesterday
Morning When l olled lie Hcfuscd
to diet I'pand a few Hours Later
Ilia Lifeless Uody Was found.
John Lose, a middle-aged farmer
from South Auburn, Susquehanna coun
ty, drove up to the Hrlstol House on
Providence suuure Wednesday after
noon with a team and a wagon con
taining a load of coal. He engaged a
room and retired at 8 o'clock In the
evening. At 11 o'clock yesterday morn
ing he whs found dead in bed, having
been suffocated by gas. The evidence
Indicates that It wus u case of suicide.
Lose wus assigned to room 16 und he
left no word when retlrinu as to what
time he wanted to be called. The bell
boy knocked ut the door of the roont
at 8 o'rlock yesterday morning und
Lose responded roughly, "Get away
from there." At 11 o'cloek the cham
bermaid rupped at the door, but no
answer came, and detecting the smell
of gas, she notified Proprietor Mabey.
When the door was opened Lose was
stretched on the bed lifeless. His boots
were off and his overcoat hung on the
wall. With these exceptions he was
entirely dressed. There are two gas
Jets In the room, and one of them, the
one nearer the bed, was open and the
gas was escaping.
There were three letters on the stand,
one addressed to Lose, and had not
been opened. No writing was left be
hind to convey the reason the man had
for terminating his life. The bell-boy
was positive that the transom was par
tially open when he called Lose at 8
o'clock, but It was closed tightly at 11
when lie whs found dead.
Coroner Longstreet was notified nnd
went in the afternoon to the under
taking establishment of D. I J. Jones &
Si n, to which the body had been re
moved. A Jury consisting of Dr. D. II.
Jenkins, C. K. Hamlin, John H. Little
John, O. M. Custard, D. L.. Jones und
Patrolman Flnley Ross was empaneled
and the following verdict wus rendered:
"We find that John Lose came to his
death from the effect of inhaling Illum
inating gas and further that his death
was acldental und that all precautions
were tuken to prevent any such result
by the proprietor of the hotel in which
this occurred, namely, the Hrlstol
House, fleorge Mabey, proprietor."
Undertaker Tltmuii, of Montrose; ar
rived in the North End at 6 o'clock
and took the remains to the late home.
Lose wus about 40 years old.

While French enterprise Is expect

company has already been formed,
known as the London Klectrlcal Cab
company, with a capital of iirill.OOO,
and in the course of a few weeks three
hundred and fifty cabs, most of which
are already built, will be started In the
streets of London.
It is claimed by the projectors of this
company that electrical automobilism
bus been practically solved by the me
chanism whose patents they hold, aud
the amount of the capital these gen
tlemen have Invested In the unterprlse
is certainly the guarantee of the good
faith of their claim. The statement
will puss without contradiction thut,
whether or not it really has solved the
great problem of the times, the com
pany certainly believes that It has.
Parliament recently passed the Koad
Locomotives act, which went Into ef
fect on the 14th of the present month,
aud authorized mechanically driven
vehicles to puss along the Queen's high
ways at a rate of speed not to exceed
fourteen miles an hour. It was the
passuge of this act that started the
company, some months ago, upon the
scent for a thoroughly practicable auto
mobile cab. They engaged W. C. Her
sey. the well-known Hngllsh electrical
engineer, as their electrical manager,
securing with him the right to use his
vehicles and the sole use of the Import
ant horseless carriage patents belong
ing to the Hrltlsh Motor Syndicate.
Previous to taking this step the com
pany thoroughly investigated all the
autocar inventions In the field. Hy
turn they studied gasoline, petroleum,
benzidine and the various explosive oil
and spirit powers, with the result that
they discarded them all as powers
for use in such crowded thoroughfares
as those of London. No choice wus then
left but electricity, and when the in
vestigators examined the contrlvunces
whose rights they have since purchased
they unhesitatingly decided that they
hud the solution of the vexed problem.
They consulted the greatest electrical
traction engineers in Great lirltaln as
to the financial aspect of the undertak
ing before making the plunge, and
Messrs. Kincaid, Waller and Manvllle
re-ported thut the cabs they are about
to put upon the streets are "prac
tically noiseless and vlbrationless, easy
of control and extremely economical in
maintenance." These experts further
stated that it was their fixed opinion
that "electrical traction for hackney
carriages must supersede horse trac
tion," an opinion that may serve as a
"tip" to some of our enterprising New
Yorkers.
The same firm has made an estimate
as to the relative cost of an autocab
and the common hansom cab. This
brings out that the rost per day of the
electric car, including all the capital
charges. Is 5s. 7''..d us compared with
ll!s. 2'fcd., which every owner of a han
som cab charges his driver. This differ
ence u lone represents a profit of JEiW.uoo
to the London Klectrli'ul Cab Company
on a stock of 3."0 cabs.

"Yes." was the demure answer. "I

Mazle Conrad, a young womun of
Forest City, wus yesterduy found guilty
In crijiilnul court of stealing her two-year-old
cousin's savings bank contuin
Ing M.:!0. Thomas J. Tuttle, of Jer
myn, father of the child, who was pros
ecutor, stated that Miss Conrad came
to his house November 18, 1S5, to se

She remained over night und the next
duy went away. A few days after
wards the child's toy bank, with the 83
dimes it contained was discovered to
be missing from the dressing rase In
Mrs. Tuttle's room, where it was usual
ly kept. It then occurred to Mrs. Tut
tle that she had seen her cousin, Miss
Conrad, acting in a suspicious manner
about the dressing case, the day of her
visit, and It was concluded at once
that the young lady in question had
taken the bunk home with her. Mrs.
Tuttle went to Miss Conrad's home In
Forest City and found In her trunk a
number of dimes, two of which were
marked, it having been their custom
to mark each dime given to their child
with the initials of the donor.
Miss Conrad! in defense said she
knew nothing of the bank; that no
dimes were found in her trunk and that
when the constable came to arrest her
she showed him her pocket book which
contained only three dimes and which
she averred wus not kept in her trunk.
The Jury thought Miss Conrad was
guilty and said so. Mr. O'lirlen assist

The prosecution ulleges that on Sep

There was a dispute over a bill and
Novak became so anirered that he ran
into his bedroom, seized a revolver,
und after throwins Huuth to the tloor
11 red point blank ut his face, the bullet
grazing his forehead. The defense was
that 1 lua t h and his pals came Into
the saloon and demanded drink, but
were refused because It wus Sunday
night.
Then they started an altercation and
Huath struck Mrs. Nuvuk In the breast,
whereupon Novak got his revolver und
fired a blawik cartridge in the air to
frighten the crowd. It did frighten
them and they. It Is alleged, then went
outside and threw stones at the house.

KISSED THE MOM KEY.
Or Why Mile. Dufny Has Saed the
lirorer.
Theatrical artists are noted for their
curious pets, and Mile. Dufay, one of
the Paris Olympla stars, has a passion
for monkeys. This love has got her
Into trouble, or. rather, pain, as Mile.
Dufay. while recently staying in a su
burban village, heard of a grocer who
had a monkey for sale. Mi. demoiselle
went to see the animal, who graciously
accepted all the sweetmeats offered It,
but objected to being kissed, and when
the lady approached her face the un
sympathetic brute bit her.
Naturally. Mile. Dufay got aggrieved
at the injury to her pretty face, and
she Is now suing the owner of the
monkey for damages. The rase will
come on before court, and the grocer
has been ordered to produce the offend
er In order that the magistrate may
decide whether It is of naturally a
ferocious character or not.
STORIES OF CONGRESSMEN.
How Oae .Member Turned the Point
on a Hishop.
Washington Letter in The Sun
A member of ronsress from Tennes
see coming Into Washington over the
Chesapeake and Ohio one night last
week was telling stories. In the smok
er with him was a Methodist bishop
who Is a good fellow himself, and he
had been milking a few sly dtgs at thu
congressman und at the kind of moral
material which found Its way Into thy
muke-up of statesmen.
"Which reminds me," said the mem
ber, getting the bishop in a corner.
"A good many years ago we had a fox
luw in my state to the effect that $2
would be paid for the scalp of each and
every fox delivered to the county clerk
of each county. We also had a states
man of the kind my good friend the
bishop thinks we all are, to wit. he was
a bold, bad man. That is to say. he
was remotely suspected of removing
horses from the premises of their own
ers: he had also been Interested, so ru
mor said, in a money making scheme
in the mountains, said money being
counterfeit, in other respects he wasn't
much better."
"He was a member of your state leg
islature, which you should have also
enumerated," smiled the bishop.
"Yes," laughed the rogressman, "he
was that, too. Well, a luw to repeal the
fox law had been introduced, and as
the fox scalp receipts were about the
largest actual money receipts the con
stituents of this statement saw. he
wus anxious to keea them coming as
long us possible aud he made a noble
tight against the repeal of the luw.
'Why, Mr. Speuker und fellow mem
bers of this body,' he said, during the
course of a long und aide effort, 'the
repeal of this law will be a deadly and
fatal blow to the grand and beautiful
cause of religion In my country, and
will plunge us ull into the vortex of the
darkness of the middle uges. Yes, gen
tlemen of this house. If you repeal this
grand and powerful instrument for the
common good und let the foxes run
wild In our midst at their own sweet
will, they will eat up all our chickens,
so that there will be none for the
Methodist preachers. Without chick
ens, fellow citizens, there will be no
Methodist preachers in our section, aud
that is the only kind we have. There
fore, gentlemen, you see what this re
peal will end in nnd what will be
come of the gospel among my constit
uents.' "
"Well?" inquired the blsb ip In doubt.
"They wouldn't repeul the law, of
course, under those clrrumstamvs,"
responded the rongressmun, und the
bishop went after the member on an
other tuck.
The gentleman from Texas was. con
versing. "There may be some people," said he,
"who don't think Senutor Coke, who
used to be in the senate from our state,
is a great, big man, but there are more
who know that he is, and that while
he muy not be an everlasting blaze of
glory, he is a mighty good steady light
to go by. I remember away back yon
der, when he was making himself a
power, he was pitted in some kind of
race, I don't recall Just what, against
a man named Cole, and Cole was no
slouch, either. His chief weakness
was his mouth, and he could not keep
It from talking, do what he would. In
other respects he was Coke's equal,
for he was at least ten years older
and had had a great deal more expeii-

ence. As the race progressed it was
seen that Cole wus getting rather the
better of Coke, and the Coke crowd
made a superhuman effort, so to speak,
and got one of the best speakers they
could find to speak at a big barbecue
they were to give.
"When the time came, much to the
dismay of the Coke party their best
speaker was teken sick and could not
be on hand. What to do was the ques
tion of tbe hour, and calling a meeting
of the committee they discovered in a
very short time thut no talent was
avuiluble except a rough-and-tumble
sort of a fellow who had been a coal
miner In West Virginia before he came
to Texas. He consented, of course,
whun called on. and the committee was
in fear and trembling, wondering what
he would do. Hut they didn't fear and
tremble long.
" 'Feller tit liens.' said the speaker In
a voice that would shake the slate roof
off of a vein of coal. "I am here today
to talk to you about Coke and Cole.
You know me and you know 1 know
what I'm talking aluut, and I want to
ask you If you know the difference be
tween Coke and Cole. Hut It ain't ne
cessary: every man of you knows thut
the difference between them Is the gas
that Is In the Cole.'
"1 don't remember the rest of his
speech," concluded the Texan, "and I
don't believe anybody else did. but I'm
mighty sure that Cole never forgot
that much of it. And what's more, 1
believe the effort he made to do less
talking killed him, for he died before
he was forty."
