FASTS RECORD OF 56 DAYS
Buttermilk at End Proved Lost Appe
tite Restored
Warsaw, Ont., April 19. —After es
tablishing a record for continuous fast
ing, Jim Robinson asked for a glass of
buttermilk, and as he slowly swallowed
it admitted that it tasted good. This
was the first nourishment taken by Rob
inson, who is an inmate of the county
infirmary, for eight weeks.
His long fast was due to lack of ap
petite and the fact that the taste and
smell of food nauseated him.
Physicians here declare his case has
no parallel in medical history. Fifty
five days was held to be the limit of
man's endurance, yet Robinson passed
that mark by more than a day and is
still alive.
During that period he lost nearly
100 pounds. Except for ibeing wea«en
ed, his general physical condition was
not affected.
CHAIRS ONCE HELD NOTABLES
Two Added to Historical Collection of
American University

inal official documents.
$1,000,000 MORGAN PROFIT
Netted From Porcelains; All Art Col
lections Likely to Be Sold
Paris, April 19. —There is good au
thority for saying J. Pierpont Mor
gan 's profit on the sale of his porcelain
collection was $1,000,000. This is a
tribute to the judgment of the late
William M. Laffan, through whose ad
vice the collection was mainly formed.
The sale of all the Morgan collec
tions, which is thought to be certain,
meets with mixed feelings among deal
ers. While it will paralyse their busi
ness for a time, confidence is felt tjiat
in the end it will prove that the pur
chase of antique objects of art is as
sound an investment as stocks.

MIMI'S
HEAD WITH STONE
Burglar Uses "Loaded"
Stocking in Attempt
to Silence Wife of
Steelton Storekeeper
HER SCALP IS
DEEPLY GASHED
Doctors Say Only Thing That Saved
Life of Mrs. Yoselowitz Was Pil
low Under Her Head—lntruder
Escapes After Overlooking SIOO
Mrs. John Yoselowitz, who with her
husband, conducts a general merchan
dise store on Chambers atreet, just be
yond the southeastern limits of the
borough of Steelton, is confined to her
home there suffering from two deep
lacerations of the scalp on the right
side of the head which were made by
a bungler who tried to crush her skull
with a big rock enclosed in a stocking,
about 2.30 o'clock Saturday moruing
while the woman was in bed.
The robber gained entrance to the
residence by climbing over a porch
roof in front of the house lyul enter
ing through an open window on the
second floor.
After entering the woman's bed
room, the thief secured a hand bag
owned by Mrs. Yoselowitz and remov
ed all the change. He then saw Mr.
Yoselowitz's trousers lying on the
floor and thrust his hand into the right
hand pocket, obtaining more small
coins.
At this instant Mrs. Yoselowitz
awoke ami let out a lusty yell for help.
The robber, who was armed with a
man's stocking in the toe of which he
had placed a stone, struck the defence
less woman twice over the head to
prevent her from making an outcry,
and inflicted the injuries from which
she is now suffering. A physician
said the ouly thing that prevented her
skull from "being fractured was the
fact that her head was 'lying on a
soft pillow.
The husband sleeping in an adjoin
ing room, heard the cry and hurried
to his wife's aid. Grabbing a revolver
he made his way to the front bed room
in time to see the burglar disappear
over the edge of the porch roof. Yosel
owitz attempted to shoot, but the fire
arm refused to go off and in the dark
ness the robber escaped.
The thief obtained between $6 and
$7 in change, but overlooked SIOO in
bille which Yoselowitz had in the left
front pocket of his trousers.
Yoselowitz has purchased a new re
volver, latest design and has cleaned
and oiled the old weapon with the in
tention of givimg the next visitor a
hot reception. Doctors say Mrs.
Yoselowitz will recover.
