"My man wouldn't eat the egg I'd

I £te mine—part of it, that is," she

I The trial of Gippel kept a jury and

I No. 2 courtroom was not without
] its thrill, too, during the trial of Mr.
and Mrs. Charles Peffer, Middletown,
! charged with conducting a disorderly

Granger, the prosecutor, had frequent
| "beer parties," used a lot of pro
fanity, gave little attention to the chll
i dren of the house and otherwise dis
j turbed the neighborhood. On the wlt
! ness stand Mrs. Peffer flatly denied the
allegations. She never called her chil
dren "little hell-devils," as had been
charged, nor did she uso "damn" as a
swear word, she added. She admitted
that at times she might have said
! "god-darn." A gray-headed feminine
witness contributed the thrill, how
ever, when a witness for the State de
clared that the old neighbor had said
unkind things about Mrs. Peffer.

he was forced to go to a hospital.
Complications developed and he failed

Mr. Bigelow was one of the ablest
and most misreresented men In the
State service in years. He was a na
tive of Pittsburgh, born in that city
November 6, 1850, and carefully edu
cated. Early developing marked engi
neering qualifications, he came to the
front in that wonderful industrial com
munity and in 1888 was appointed
director of works. He served until
1906 and In that time created Pitts
burgh's park system, for which a
monument to him was erected; made
its highways talked about and did
'.Treat things for the city for which he
was blamed and praised. He was the
man who Induced Mrs. Schenly to
make her notable gifts to the city.
When the Highway Department was
reorganized Governor Tener named
Mr. Bigelow to take charge on June 1,
1911. What he did for the State high
way system will be realized some day
when mud throwing is not so popular.
He put the state on the nation's high
way map and his work was taken up
when he resigned early in 1915 by the
late Robert J. Cunningham.
Since his retirement Mr. Bigelow,
who never enjoyed robust health, had
been ill several times. He took the
directorship much against advice of
friends.

47 Americans on Palermo,
Shelled and Torpedoed
Madrid, Dec. 6. The Italian
steamship Palermo, with many Am
ericans on board, has been torpedoed
off tlio Mediterranean coast of Spain.
One sailor, reported to be an Amer
ican, was wounded by a shell and died
in a hospital at Palafrugell, Spain,
near which the survivors were landed.
Three others were seriously wounded
by the torpedo.
New York. Dec. 6. The Italian
steamship Palermo, of 9203 tons gross,
left New York November 15 for Genoa
and Spezia and was last reported as
passing Gibraltar on November 28.
She carried no passengers, but had on
board forty-seven American horse
tenders.
Besides 858 mules and 163 horses,
the Palermo carried 1452 cases of
trinitrotoluol, a powerful explosive,
and tons of munitions and other war
supplies, besides general cargo.
Before the war the Palermo was en-
Kaßed in passenger service between
Naples and Palermo and this port.
The ship was armed, it was said
here at the office of Hartfield, Solarl
& Co., agents of the Navigazione Gen
erale Itallana, owner of the Palermo.
She carried two 3-inch rifles mounted
aft.
"These guns," said Mr. Solarl, "were
carried for defense only."
Believe Palermo Shelled
in Attempt to Escape
Washington, Dec. 6. A brief con
sular dispatch announcing the sinking
of the Italian steamer Palermo with
twenty-five Americans aboard, off the
Spani3h coast, was received yester
day. It gave no details. News dis
patches showing that the ship, armed
with defense guns and loaded with
horses and munitions for the Allies,
was shelled before being torpedoed
led officials to believe that she had at-
tempted to escape after being warned
and thus had lost her immunity from
attack.
It was announced at the State De
partment that Austria-Hungary had
been asked to make an Investigation
of the sinking of the American
steamer Chemung in the Mediter
ranean 'November 28. The question
of whether the vessel carried moro
than fifty per cent, contraband cargo,
justifying In the opinion of some
authorities the sinking of a neutral
craft which a captor is unable to take
into port, apparently is the only point
at issue in this case.
