Griscom's Mother Says He
Talks Too Much.
WHITMAN NOT IN THE CASE.
Arnolds Are Assured That Man Said
to Bs Daughter's Suitor Will Be
Restrained In the Future At
Prisoner In His Hotel.
Atlantic City, N. J., Feb. 15.-G corse
B. Grlscom, Jr., is still locked up In
Ma room In the Hotel Cbalfonte.
Soger O'Mara, the Pittsburg detective,
who has taken charge of the Griscom
interests here, made several trips from
kis rooms at Young's hotel to the
Imlfonte. After one of the later trips
h talked with the besieging newM
paper men.
There was no word from .thor Grin
m for O'Mara to give out. The fsict
that considerable mall and a number J
f telegrams have been sent out from
the Griscom apartments and have been
received by the Grlscoms In the past
two days has caused much specula
tion, particularly in view of the ml
tortlsement In a New York newspaper
signed "Junior," naming Tuesday as
too day on which the one for vhixc
yea the personal was Intended mivlil
zpoct to hear from the same "Junior."
Ihere was no attempt on the part uf
any of the Grlscoms to leave I he
halfonte.
Writing at tho request of her lins-
Wend, Mrs. George S. Griscom. Sr..
nt a letter to Francis It. Arnold,
orothy's father, apologizing for the
loquacity of their son and promising
to restrain him In the future. The
older Griscom assured the Arnolds,
however, that his son had not mild
many of the things attributed to him.
District Attorney Charles S. Whit
man was exercised when he read that
ke had admitted going to Philadelphia
n a phase of the Investigation and
khat he had said the Arnolds had ap
pealed to him tn drop any alllrlnl
earch.
Tleaso say for me," said Mr. VhII
nan, "that I went to Philadelphia sev
eral days ago on inlte nnothor matter
and that because I happened To flls
iss the Arnold case with so-nebody it
was assumed I was over there to do
omn work on It. As to the other mat
ter, here are the facts: About ten days
aio I called up the Arnold house and
tulkcd to somebody I 'lnderstood was
Ur. Arnold. I said I had heard that
the family weren't satisfied with the
attltudo of the police, end I Inquired if
hero was anything my department
oulrt do. The answer was that the
family had nothing to suggest, but that
k? anything turned up they would up
ry to me."

TWELVE DIE IN A COLLISION.

Near Courville.
Paris, Feb. 15. The Western State
irailway, which already has gained an
unenviable reputation for accidents in
which eighty persons have been killed
iin six months, Increased Its record
when a collision occurred at Courville
An express from Paris ran Into a

persons were killed. Tho train caught
fire after the accident
A third train was stopped just as it
ireached the wreckage.
Too Precious.
"Makers to his majesty" nnd '"im
ported" are words that carry much
weight to many minds. It is strange
what a glory a foreign label can cast
upon a commonplace article. The fact
of a commodity having crossed the wa
ter, however, is not taken quite so se
riously today as It was some llfty or
sixty yoars ago. M. C. D. Sllsbso
gives an instance in her "A Half Cen
tury In Salem."
Miss Ann M. Rust was ono of tho
two milliners. She had a largo collec
tlon of finery, shelves full of handsome
ribbons and glass showcases of rich
embroideries, besides the Inevitable
bonnets. Onco she imported a quan
tity of exquisite French caps. The
strings were somewhat crushed in tho
transit across tho ocean. The caps
were quickly disposed of. An aunt
bought one, and Miss Itust innocently
observed that a "warm Iron would
make the creases all right."
"What!" indignantly exclaimed tho
aunt. "Smooth a crease made in Paris?
No, indeed; nover!"
A Famous English Clock.

most Interesting clocks in the whole

JUAREZ IS CELEBRATING.
General Navarro's Arrival With 1.E30
Men Assures Safety of Town.
El Paso, Tex., Feb. 15.-Juarez has
hern relieved. The Insurrectos, camp
ing at Samalayuca, thirty miles south
of Juarez, have disappeared. Three
train loads of federal soldiers, com
manded by General Navarro, are In
the Juarez railroad yards. The troops
consist of about-1.C00 cavalrymen and
Infantrymen, and bring tho total num
ber in tho Juarez garrison up to 2,000
men, amply nble to protect the town
from nny revolutionary attack.
General Navarro was embraced by
Colonel Lambourel nnd Colonel Itab
ago of the Juarez garrison when ho
stepped from tho train. The oillcers
were taken to tho Juarez custom uouse
where a reception was held and cham
pagne served. Americans flocked to
Juarez from El Paso nnd helped to
celebrate. There Is now a feeling of
security, a feeling that the Insurrectos
lost their "main chance'" and that
they are now to be considered merely
as guerrillas and not as an army.
The whereabouts of Francisco J
Madcro is still unknown. The United
States oillcers In El Paso have not
been able to serve their papers on
cither Madero or Gonzales, provisional
governor of Chihuahua.

A Long Credit.
The -motto of the highland host that
battled .for tho Stuart cause, which
bonny Prince Charlie headed, appar
ently was that heaven helps those who
help themselves liberally. They levied
toll on the henroost, stable and, ac
cording to tho author of "Tho Land of
Romance," -even on tho pockets of tho
Covenanters.
At Swarthholm a party of these ma
rauders -overhauled tho house of a till
lor, and when one of them was about
to cut up a web of homespun that had
taken his fancy .tho good wife earnest
ly remonstrated.
"A day'll come when yo'll ha' tao
pay for that," she solemnly assured
him.
Scissors in band, Donald paused.
"An' when will she po baling to do
that?" ho asked.
"At tho last day," Bald sue.
"An' that will po a fcry goot long
credit," the robber coolly returned
"She wass going to po only taking a
coat, but now she will po taking n
waistcoat as well."
A Mountain In the Sky.
Somewhere many miles away from
this earth an enormous mountain
twenty miles high is flying through
space. The mountain Is known astro
nomically as the planet Eros. The or
dinary man has long taken it for
granted that all tho planets are more
or less round In shape. Tho small
planet Bros, however, is an exception
to this rule. According to the latest
6tronomlcal Information, it is a mere
mountain in space, "without form and
void," and as it turns upon its axis
first ono corner and then another Is
presented to view. These small worlds
(few are over ten or twenty miles
across) nro not largo enough to havo
sufficient gravity to draw their struc
ture into symmetry and remain as
when launched into space mammoth
meteorites. A tantnllzlng fact for as
tronomcrs is that Eros passed very
closo to us about Jan. 2-1, 180-1 before
tho planet was recognized and that
quito so near an approach Is not due
again till 107D.

Buffalo, Feb. 15. The Veudome ho
tel, a three story frame building at
Lackawanna, was entirely destroyed
by fire. The loss was $25,000.
"The Mine's Blown Up."
I "was sitting on tho edge of my bed,
loosening the heel of one of my rubber
boots with tho too of the other, when
suddenly through the stillness of tho
sleeping town, from tho power house
half a mile away, came a low and ris
ing note, the great siren whistle in the
power house. Almost fascinated, I
listened as tho great note rose higher
and more shrill and died away again.
One blast meant a Are In the town, two
blasts fire In tho buildings at the mine
and three blasts, the most terrible of
all, a disaster or trouble in tho mine.
Onco more, after an Interminable
pause, tho sound came again nnd once
more-rose aud died uway. 1 did not
move, but there was a suuueu coio-
ncss that camo over me as once more.
for the third time, the deep -note broke
out on the quiet air. Almost Instan
taneously tho loud jingle of my tele
phone brought me to my feet. I took
down tho receiver. "Tho mine's blown
up," said a woman's voice. Atlantic
Saying No.
The author of "Pat McCarty," a -bock
of verse with a setting of prose, shows
how naturally some of the Irishmen of
Antrim dilute tho wine of narrative
with tho water of verbiage. In the ex
cernt below "Tho Way Wo Tell a
Story" the diluent Is used -with a par
ticularly free hand:
Says I to him, I says, says I,
Says I to him, I says.
The thing, says I, I says to him,

The Spectacled Bear.
The spectacled bear of Ecuador is
so called because of a patch of white
around each eye, which makes tho
animal look as though he was peering
through a pair of great spectacles.
In size and general color tho spec
tacled bear looks not unllko the Ameri
can black bear. But its hair is very
shaggy. At each sido of tho head is a
whito bar, which gives tho animal the
appearance of wearing a hnlter. But
the most distinctive feature is tho
white around tho eyes.

ITHB PRICE IS

STILL HAS MONEY TO GIVE.
Dr. D. K. Pearsons Determined to Do
nate Entire Fortune.
Dr. Daniel K. Pearsons, the non
agenarian philanthropist of Hinsdale.
111., has discovered some property that
has no. been given away, so lie Is
making plans to donate It quickly. He
announces that ho proposes "to get
ahead of my friends, Rockefeller nnd
Carnegie, and make provision for n
complete cleanup before dying."
The philanthropist has given away
$0,000,000 to forty-two colleges lu
twenty-four states. Now ho has dis
posed of the residence near Chicago,
where ho and his wlfo lived for thirty
years. Although the property, with
Btl. DANIKIj K. TEAJISON3.
its five acres of lawns and fruit trees,
is worth more than $30,000, Dr. Pear
sons decided that waB a fair price aud
arranged that the sum should be do
nated to Chicago charities. Being
without a home or family, Dr. Pear
sons has spent tho wluter at a sani
tarium. He first becamo imbued with tho
idea of aiding struggling educntlonal
institutions in 1S10, when Mary Lyon
was scouring New England for fuuds
with which to stnrt Mount Ilolyoke
College For Women. Dr. Pearsons
was then working to obtain nn edu
cation at Dartmouth, but ho managed
to help Miss Lyon a little and later
built a dormitory for tho college.
"Another thing I want distinctly un
derstood by every one is that I am
not benevolent," says he. "To call me
benevolent Is to mako a great big mis
take. I am not, positively, once for
all. 1 haven't a spark of benevolence
In my makeup. I am a hard hearted,
tight fisted old curmudgeon without a
trace of charity. I am giving my mon
ey away because I want to be my own
executor. I want to know Just whore
my money goes and what Is done with
It. I want to seo It really doing some
good."
The Offending Black Bottle.
A church member in a lonely district
of Saskatchewan absented himself
from services for some months. On
being approached on the subject he
said ho was sorry, but It was impossi
ble to attend any more. He was
pressed to give reasons and at length
said It was owing to tho bad conduct
of tho superintending clergyman nnd
'enteehlst.
no and others had witnessed them
drinking when driving round on their
visits. They had passed a black hot
tie from hand toWnd. It was Impos
sible to attend tho ministry of such
men. Inquiries proved that the of
fending "bottle" was a pair of field
glasses with which the drivers sur
veyed the surrounding country and
tried to locate tho various churches,
shacks nnd trails. Sunday at Home.
