Copyright] To-Day's Short Story. MONEY FROM THE SKY By John Dolbeare. "Oh, dear said Mary Thayer, a little fret- fully to herself, "it does seem as if I shall have to take Henry out of college. If only some money would fall out of the.. sky!" She sat at her desk by the open window that overlooked the tiny park across the street. It was early 3pring, and the trees in their suits of freshest green told once again -heir never old story of life renewed, hope Dd faith in the future. The wholesome lesson was lost on Mary this morning. Xot since she had been left to battle with life alone had the struggle seemed so hard, the prospect so dark. The property bequeathed by her father yielded revenue sufficient for the ordinary needs of the family, which consisted of a brotherrand two sisters, all younger than herself, but it seemed impossible by the best management to provide for the completion of Henry's edu- cation. This, to Mary and her sisters, was an all-Important project, but when the utmost sacrifices had been made, what more could be done? "Henry isn't prepared to take up profes- sional work yet," Mary continued, "and it doesn't seem right that he should be deprived of his opportunities just that the rest of us may live along doing nothing." The girls were not "doing nothing" by any neans; but in the light of their ambitions for their brother all their efforts seemed feeble and valueless. His present term at college could be finished, for all the bills were paid. It was the next year that was in question, and as that was a long way off Mary sensibly decided not to waste any more energy in worrying about it. So she opened one of the drawers of the desk, which had been her father's, to get various documents bearing upon insurance and other business matters, for the purpose of studying them. As the drawer came open a piece of folded paper fen to the floor. Evi- dently it had been caught in the bottom of the upper drawer and had been dislodged accidentally. Mary picked it up and unfolded it, wondering rather idly what it was..She couid hardly believe her eyes when she saw that it was a promissory note made to her father for the sum of 1,4k and signed by Ja.cob A Bent. Several times she read it over to make sure that she understood it. There could be no mistake. The Cote was in proper form, and though n was long overdue here was no mark of any kind upon it to how that it had been paid. Mary knew Mr. Bent siigntly. He had had business dealings with her father, and the two men were apparently loyal friends. It i eemed strange that Mr. Bent should not ji .ave called attention to the note at the time ji its maturity and paid it, for he knew the -ircumstan,ce,5 of the family. Perhaps he lad forgotten it; but if he had this would w an unmistakable reminder, and of coursa te would settle at once. Mary's joy was unbounded. This, indeed, •' Nals money from the sky," and, better still, t was amply sufficient to solve the problem hat vered her most. Too happy to keep her ,uod fortune to herself, she laid the note on the desÁ and ran to another room to tell her sister Flora about it. The sister. naturally could hardly credit the good news, and afier shoe had exclaimed over it I delightedly she-went back with Mary to feast her own eyes upon the note that meant so much to them. They found the floor near the desk some- what littered with papers. Evidently a. mischievous breeze had been cutting capers during Mary's absence. With no thought of anxiety the girls picked up the papers, and Mary looked for the promissory note. She could not find it. All other papers that she knew had been on her desk were there. The note alone, was missing. i. "It must have, blown out of the window," said Flora, faintly. Their hearts heavy with apprehension now. they both leaned out of the window and craned their necks in both directions. There was no sign of the one scrap of paper they wanted. They went out of doors and searched the entire neighbourhood, all to no purpose. At length they returned to the' room where the desk was, and sat for a time looking at each other in silent despair. I wish you hadn't found it, Mary," said Flora. This remark roused the elder sister. and inspired her with courage. No!" she exclaimed that isn't the way to look at it. The finding of the paper shows that Mr. Bent owes us that money. As bø owes it, of course he'll pay it. I ll go at once and tell him all abont it. Within an hour Mary was in Mr. Bent's office, telling her story with every confi- dence that he would need out a reminder .of the obíGa to meet it forthwith. He listened to her interestedly, saying nothing until she had finished. Then, "I'm sorry for you," said he, "but you must learn a lesson from it not to leave papers of value lying about." He stood up to indicate that the interview was at an end. "But, Mr. Bent," faltered Mary, "you remember making the note. do you not?" "Really, Miss Thayer," was his cool response, you speak as if you expected me to pay for your carelessnees. If you have any claim against me, bring me the evidence of it and I'll attend to it." That, in brief, was all the satisfaction Mary obtained from the call. With a woman's persistence she lingered even after her dismissal, pleading with Mr. Bent to remember, and assuring him of her need of the money. He simulated sympathetic patience at first, but at last offended her deeply by asking why she had not made the amount. of the lost note a thousand pounds instead of half aA much. Mary was too amazed and hurt to -reply, and the further she went from Mr. Bent's office the more she suffered. There was now an added incentive for recovering the note. It seemed to her that the money it called for could not be worth so much to her as i the means of satisfying- the man of business f that she was not trying to impose upon him. r To this end she and her sisters made I another search of the house and neighbour [ hood. They made inquiries of all the people r who lived near, with the result that ash- barrel.> were overturned, scrap heaps scat- tered, and excursions of small boys [ t encouraged beneath stoops. It all came to I nothing. The note had disappeared, and the L girls themselves at last gave up hope of find- f ing it. [ Abont a week had passed. The little park opposite Mary's home was ringing with the excited laughter of children. An employe of the Park Department was at work there with a bug exterminator. It amused the children immensely to see him use his big squirt gun on infected foliage wherever he found any. A good-natured man, with children of his own, he entered syrripatheti-cally into their enjoyment,, and ma(Te things a. merry for them as he could. He had a light ladder that he carried from tree to tree. Don't squirt on the bird's nest, mister," called out a youngster in the course of the proceedings. "Where? What nest?" returned t-he & Just over your head to the right," explained the child. The workman glanced up carelessly, said "Huh!" in a surprised tone, and then mounted another rung of the ladder to inspect the nest more closely. Weil, kids," said he. "the bird who lives here is quite aristocratic; and more than, that he wants us all to understand it. Here's a sign, on. his house that says it's worth five xundred pounds." Go em! Toti're guying; us," said biggest boy; and the others, taking their ctie from him, declared that they didn't believe [ 'Then I'm blind," retorted the bug man, and I never learned to read, and I can't believe my eyes. One of you can climb up here and see." There was a wild scramble for the ladder, but the biggest boy won. He edge up beside the workman, and saw that in making her nest the bird had woven in a, piece of white paper; and on the exposed surface. just as if it were a placard, were the fig-ures: £ 500." The boy certified the fact to his companions, and they talked about the matter with the keenest interest. Returning from a trip to market, Mary Thayer overheard a youngster declaring his willingness to bet that there wasn't another bird in the city whose hous.2 was worth £ 500. She had striven to forget the lost note, but the mention of this sum aroused her curiosity; not that she connected it with the note. but that the amount exercised a kind of fascination for her. Knowing the children well. she asked them what they were talking about; and when they told her. her he-art seemed to stand still. She went to the work- man and begged him to let her look at he nest, a request he granted readily. Mary climbed the short ladder, and wa6 satisfied with ozx glance that here wac; the evidence Mr. Bent dema.nded. Very carefully, so as not to destroy the new nest, she pulled the paper out. It was crump-led and soiled, and a corner had been corn off by the bird's sharp beak, but all the writing wa6 intact. The young manager bad learned a lesson from her previous call upon Mr. Bent. and when lle went to him with the recovered note, she took a friend along. It is net neces- sary to narrate the conversation. Mr. Bent blandly acknowledged the genuineness of rhe document, and ignoring his former refusal to remember having given .such a note, made payment in full on the spot. "It's more like money 'from the sky' than before, Flora," said Mary, on her return home with her treasure, "for the bird was keeping it for us up in the air."

For Women Folk. ————.———— HOMELY HINTS AND DAINTY DISHES Two tablespoonfuls of turpentine put into | the copper in which white clothes are boiled i will improve the colour very much. It must be well stirred into the water before the clothes are put in. In buying tinned- meat, ash. or fruit see that the top of the tin is perfectly level and flat. If it is bulged out, the contents are not good, and if eaten would cause severe illness, or even death. To clean Oriental and other fancy brass ornaments, peel a lemon, cut it in quarters, take out every pip. and after the artide to be cleaned has had every particle of dust re- moved, rub it well with the pieces of lemon, then wash in plain warm water. dry with a soft cloth, polish with a clean chamois leather, and they will look like new. Anchovy Egg Sandwiches Cut thin slices of bread and butter, spread lightly with anchovy sauce, and cover thickly with finely-chopped hard-boiled egg. Cut into fancy shapes. Polish Rice Cut an onion into very thin slices, and fry in a little butter. Then add Zoz. of cookrd ham (minced) and Mb. of boiled rice. Season with a pinch of cayenne and a tablespooinful of grated cheese. Stir altogether lightly over the fire, and eerve very hot. To Stick Earthenware Mix smoothly a tableepoonful of flour, a I teaspoontful of alum, with cold water. Then pour boiling water on to make very thick paste. If a broken jug handle, bind round with strong calico and paste, first sticking parts together and drying. Then cover neatly with shirting or print to match article. Enamel if desired. Very strong. Horseradish Powder I Get the horseradish roots as soon as possible after they have been dug out of the ground, wash them quite clean, wipe them dry. and slice them in pieces about the thickness of a shilling; lay these on the shelf in a eotfl oven and let them dry gradually. If too much heat is used the flavour is spoiled. When dry and crisp, pound to a coarse powder and put into bottles with sealed corks. Angel Cake I The whites of six eggs, a quarter of a pound of castor sugar, three ounces of fbi-e flour, one teaspoonful of baking-powder. Mix the baking-powder very thoroughly with the flour. sift the sugar carefully. Separate the whites of the eggs from the yolks and beat them, adding the sugar by degrees; then add the flour, this followed by the flavouring, vanilla, or ratafia. Beat all well, without leaving during the whole I pros; put into a well-buttered cake-tin and into the oven at once. Bake in a moderate oven for twenty to thirty minutes; do not move it. whilst baking or slam the 'oven-door. When cooked and of a nice golden-brown, remove from the oven and let it stand in the tin for five minutes, then turn i,t out on to a ieve. Wh?n cold ice' with a water icing. -———- I

I fciow," remarked the advertiser, but I want one now, and I think I can make a satisfactory selection from the animals that will be brought to me!" "Well," said a young solicitor, after he had heard the statement of a client who was about to bring an action for slander, "your case appears to be good. I think we can secure a verdict." "That's what I told nry wife." said the client, "and yet she insisted at first that we ought to engage a flrbt-clafs lawyer!" A young actress was constantly irritated by the pompous behaviour of the leading lady, who was also the manageress. "Now, miss," said the latter, "you'll hae an opportunity of showing your talents in another direction. I've cast you for a good i part, and you'll have a oharce to study me in a new role. You've never seen me in comely, have you?" "Yes. I have," replied the player. "I've seen, your Lady Ma.obeth!" "Do you like Omar Khayyam?" thought- lessly asked a gentleman who was entertain- ing two brothers whose acumen in commer- cial matters was considerably in advance of their literary knowledge. "Pretty v, c 11, replied the. elder of the two guests, "but I prefer Chianti." Nothing more was caid tin the brothers weTe on their way home. "James," eaid the younger bitterly, "why can't you leave things you don't understand to me? Omar Khayyam ain't a wine, it's a cheese!" "But in all this rejoicilag." eoncluded a teacher who had been discoursing upon the parable of the Prodigal Son and wished to emphasise the character of the elder brothet, "there was one to whom the preparation of the feast brought no joy-one who did not approve of the feast being held, and who had no wish to attend it. Now, caji any of you tell me who this was?" i A pause, and then from a dozen sympathe- tic little Tads came this chorus—"The calf- it was the fatted calf, sir!"

The Secret of Sex.
The Secret of Sex. I A DOCTOR'S NEW THEORY Is there any law which determines whether boys or girls shall be bürn? The question is investigated by Dr. Romme in an interest- ing pa. per which he contributes to the cur- rent number of La Rivue," following up the researches of Dr. fichenk, whote inquiries, however, led to no certain ræult. Dr. Eo'mm?, after a dene statistical study, reaches the conclusion that a boy is ?orn when the father is the weaker of the two ?r,are.n:s and a girl when the mother is the weaker. He dec-Lares that by a law of nature the child resembles the weaker and not t h, stronger of its parents. Preponderance of Boys He points out that in all countries, with mathematical regularity, 105 or 1C6 girls are born to every 100 boys. There is only one C>GJL-O:a under which this proportion is modified—.after a yreiat war. In the same wa.y, among th-e barbarous races of Africa and Oceania, which are constantly at war, the births show an overwhelming preponderance of boys. This, he states, .proves the law, for the betst and the strongest men are sent to the front or killed, and the weakest remain behind or survive. The purpose of Nature is to maintain the balance, and to re-place the weaker individual with another of the same sex before he or she disappears. Interesting Statistics I Thu. when an old man marries a young wife it is a well-known fact that more boys than girls are bcrn to siich a union. The opposite is the case when the wife is much older than the husband. Sadler has collected the following statistics:—For 1,CC0 girls born there are born— 365 boys when the fathcr is younger than the mother. 9+3 bJyN w?.en the lather is of the fame &?e i?s the 94? bcy6 w.-ea tiac laill,?z Is of t,"? 6ame a,-e as tl,e i.037 boye wicn the father is one to eix years older than the mother. 1,267 boys when the father is six to eleven years older than the mother. 1,474 boys when the father is eleven to sixtren yeare oWer fhan the mot?ier o"{t\h:'h the !;lthu is sixteen 0; mO;e year5 older then the mother. Dr. Homme asserts that there are practi- cally no inei-a.nces where the strength of both r,arents is equal. Worry, a passing illness, mental depression, or, indeed, any siirht trouble, is sufficient to turn the scale and cause a temporary a.nd relative weak- ness in one or other. To illustrate his theory Dr. Romme cites example among living Sovereigns. The Kaiser, he says, had five sons in succession, while the Empress of Rnssia, on the other hand, has had four daughters in sue cession born to her. In my career," he concludes, I have not met with a single instance whi, trans- gressed the rule above formulated."

COMPENSATION ACTj
COMPENSATION ACT The Army Council state in a letter which has been addressed to the secretaries of the County Associations of the Territorial Force that soldiers of that force are persons in the military service of the Crown within the meaning of Section 9 of the Act. While, therefore, they are acting in their capacity as soldiers of the Territorial Force in or about the performance of duties or work, they a.re excluded from the operation of the Act under the section mentioned. Th.i; applies even though the duties are not specifically authorised or provided for by regulations, and irrespectively of whether the man is compelled to perform them, and is not affected by any payment from associa- tion or private funds that may be made in respect thereof. No liability will, therefore, attach to County Associations in respect of injuries received by soldiers of the Terri- torial Force in the performance of such duties, and no insurance need be effected.

I Llanelly & _Welsh UnionI
I Llanelly & Welsh Union I RUMOURED FORMATION OF N.U. CLUB There is deep resentment in Llanelly foot- ball circles over the action of the Welsh Union in suspending W. J. Thomas, a well- known scarlet forward, for a period of three months. It is felt that, whatever Thomas's offence was, the punishment i. ont of all proportion to what took place. The incident wh.ch the referee reported to the Union occurred in the couree of the Neath match, but it is a significanv fact that the referee did not order the offending player off the field. As a matter of fact, in the whole course of his long football career Thomas has never been ordered off by any Welsh referee, and he is known to be one of the cleverest forwards who have ever donned the red jersey. Earlier in the season the Welsh Union thought it wise to suspend the Llan- elly ground for a period, although what took place on that occasion was in no way worse than some of the scenes enacted on the Neath ground this season. All this gives point to the gnerally accepted belief in Llanelly that the Union are never happier than when they have to mete out punish- ment to the club. It is not surprising, therefore. thut efforts are now being made to establish a Northern Union club in the town. Several members of the Llanelly committee (writes our Uaneliy representative) do not disguise their approval of such a, r tep, and it is likely that the matter will be boldly brought forward at the forthcoming annual meeting of the club. Indeed, I am informed on good authority that one of the members of the committee has already given notice of motion to this effect. There can be no doubt that the move. ment would be popular in the town, mean- ing, as it would, that several old Llameiiy players who are now in the North would immediately return to play for their native towa.
DECEITFUL LIVES ———————————————————..-<-.———————-
DECEITFUL LIVES ——————————————————— .<———————- RIVERSIDE CRIME. Sordid Story at Inquest I A STRANGE VERDICT. It is hard lines, Irat lies never do any good. I am leaving this world, but I may eay—don't trust any woman. Your repu- tation amongst us City people is so great that I may ask you as a last request to keep it out of the papers. This was the text of a letter addressed to the coroner by William Buchholtz, the City lace merchant, who committed suicide on Thursday at a Thames-side villa at Staines after having murdered Mrs. Hannah Power, the young woman with whom, he had been living. Temporarily Insane The circumstances of the double tragedy were inquired into yesitarday by Mr. Reginald Kemp, deputy-ooroner for West Middlesex, at Staines Town-hall, and the judy found a verdict of "Wilful murder" against ilr. Buohholtz in the case of Mrs. Power's death, and that Buchholtz after. wa'-d.s committed suicide while temporarily insane. Mrs. Emily Hunter, mother of the deceased, Hannah Power, said her daughter was the wife of Mr. Ambrose Power, a planter, of Jamaica. Her daughter had been living in Log-land since last Maroh twelve months. She first met Buchholtz at a theatre last October. How did they come to speak to each other? -1 cannot tell you. It is rather strange, is it not, for a respectable married woman to meet a man in this way at the theatre with no introduc- tion?—-I cannot tell you the particulars. I think you know, don't you? Did your daughter not talk over her affairs?-No. she did not. When was the arrangement made that they should live togeOer?-He took Winchester House at Staines, I believe, in February. Did ycu not ask your daughter what she was doing with this man?—Yes. I told her she Dad no right to do so. Witness further stated that her daughter told her she ivai going to Staines to live with Mr. Buchholtz. and witness refused to go with her, but went a month afterwards. Why did you change your mind?—Because she came and told me she was so lonely. You knew what was going on?—To a cer- tain extent. And connived at it?-No, sir. You were in the house?—Yes; but I was always insisting upon her kavirg. jl Werc you not very disgusted with it aU?ji- Yes, I was I And yet you stayed on?—She aid it. would come away if I stayed a little longer. Husband Deceived Why did you leave?—Because I would not stay any longer, and I made my daughter co-me away with me. Has your daughter always led a respect- able life?—Yes, up to the time she met this man. Her daughter, witness further pta-ted, was communicating with, her husband all the time. Witness did not write 4nd tell her daugh- ter's husband about what was going on because she nenrer knew his address. She had tried to find out, but her daughter always tor« up her letters when she received them. She was deceiving her husband all the time. Her daughter came to Alexandra Mansions after leaving Staines. That was a fortnight, ago. Witness insisted upon her leaving, and told her daughter that ufiless she did leave Mr. Buchholtsi she would never acknowledge her a gain as her child. You say that after that she left. WbY did you not- t-ell her that when she started to live with him ?-I told her many times. Your persuasion at last did it?—Yes. Witness proceeded to say that last Sunday week Mr. Buchholtz came to them at Alex- andra Mansions in the afternoon. Witness opened the door, and he asked her if Mrs. Power lived there. Witness said Yes," and Mr. Buchholtr, walked into the house. Her daughter said to him, "What do you want?" and he said, "Iwa-nttoeeeycm." He was not angry. He sa.id he had baem all over London to find her. H' was quite calm. Her daughter told him is-he would not return again to Steine6. He begged her to return with him very much, and she said she would not. Were they quarrelling over it?—Yes. Did she tell him why she would not return with him?—She told him he had made her very unhappy. Did he ask what your daughter meantP-1 I did not hear any more. How did they part?—Very good friends, as far as 1 Show. Intensely Jealous Wha.t made them agree to come together I a,gain?-He spoke to my daughter through the 'phone, and asked her if she would go to I Staines with him on the Thursday evening to pay the maids and close up the house, and he would come round and see her. and she said, "Yc-E, she would." Surely, when your daughter told him he made her unhappy, he wanted to know what she meant after living with her for so many months?—I cannot tell you what took place between them afterwards. Was her husband expected home?—Yes. She did expect her husband back in two months' time. Did Buchholtz know that?—Yes. Was he jealous of her husband?—Yes, of everyone Who else?-Even of the baby, if she nursed the child. She knew her husband was coming home. And began to feel alit-t-le Lt awkward?—I suppose so. Was it not at the bottom of the whole thing?—I think so, sir. The Coroner: It was not bo much your wonderful persuasion, after all. Witness proceeded' to say that when they again left for Staines together they seemed to be on very good terms. Witness knew her daughter was only going back to return on the Friday rooming-—the next day. That was to be the end of the whole thing. Her daughter was not at all. afraid of Mr. Buchholtz. Mrs. Power paid the rent of the house at Alexandra Mansions out of her private means. Witness had no wages as nurse, but her daughter gave her all she wanted. Mrs. Power had previously been married to a Mr. Jeffrey. She got her private means from Mr. Power. Mr. Buch- holtz paid the rent for the house at Staines. Night of the Murder I Louisa Sparks said she had been at will. chester House, Staines, since February last. When she went there she thought Mr. Buch- holtz and Mrs. Power were man and wife. They were then very happy together. They quarrelled afterwards through Mr. Bucihhoitz drinking. Describing the scene the day the bodies were found, witness said the first thing she saw was a piece of paper on the back door-step, on which was written, Don't go into the drawing-room. Advise police instead." Sh t-ook no notice of it as he had been drinking the day before. She went to Buohholtz's bedrooan with tea, but found the room unoccupied. In the drawing- room she found Mrs. Power lying behind the screen. From the position witness thought that she had fallen off the music-stgol. Witness went to her sister, whose husband fetched the police. The Dead Man's Messages Station-sergeant Arnold stated that he found several pieces of paper in Winchester House containing writing, which he pro- duced. The Coroner read one, which stated. Never lie." Another said, Dear Mra. Rolley,-Now at Queen Alexandra Mansiona. That is all your doing- Thanks.—William Buohholtz." To Mrs. Hunter: Can you suggest any meaning to this? Mrs. Hunter: Because I made my daughter come away. That is what I think it referred to. The Coroner then read the letter quoted above. The police-sergeant 0.1180 stated that the fol- lowing was found written in blue pencil on the ba,th:- I am so eorTy for what has taken place. Rolley is the fault of all. It is d- hard, poor lassie. It is not hard for oneself, but only for those you leave behind.-W. B. And on a piece of pamper new the head of Mrs. Power's body were written the woxds: Don't lie; I love her too much. Inspector Pyke produced a reoeipt for a Colt's revolver and 100 cartridges piurehased on the 16th inst., found in the pockets of Mr. Buchiholtz after death. Dr. Tottle, Staines, said his theory was that the woman was shot behind the ear while at the piano. The wounds on Mr. Buohholtz were self-inflicted. When the jury returned their verdict the Coroner asked: Do you find temporary insanity in this case?" The foreman was understood to say that the jury held that when a man committed Buicdde he must be temporarily insane. The Coroner: Weil, it iw your verdict. I make no comment on it.
OLD AGE - PENSIONSI
OLD AGE PENSIONSI To be Provided in a Year I MR. LLOYD GEORGE'S SPORTING I OFFER At the first of his night meetings in Man- Chester Mr. Lloyd George said it was a crying shame and a scandal in this, the greatest j commercial country in the world, if we were not able to organise something which would keep in employment a man who was anxious to work. "We ought to deal with it," he said. "We must deal with it; I venture to predict we shall deal with it." (Cheers.) By-the-bye, he went on, they would get old-age pensions. (A Voice, derisively: "Yes, by-and-bye.") Mr. IAoyd George: The gentle- ma,n &ays by-and-bye. What will he bet me that we will not ha-ve got it within a year? ILoud cheers.) I am willing to take on that bet with Mr. Joynson-Hicks or anybody else who likes to take it up. At another meeting, in reply to an inter- ruption. on the same subject, he said: I don't, want to anticipate a statement which will be made by my chief, probably in the course of the next fortnight or three weeks; but I have offered at another meeting to bet, if I' were a betting ma.n, that there will be old- age pensions in this country within twelve montlis. (Cheers.) 1
IA __HOLIDAY EPISODE__I
I A HOLIDAY EPISODE A working man complained to Mr. Rose at Tower Bridge Police-court yesterday that on Bank Holiday he was defrauded of twoEcnce by an automatic piano-or,an which refused to play. He said he demanded his money back, and on being refused he smashed the glass front of the machine. He was then, he explained, assaulted and given into custody for wilful damage, but t.he charge was after- wards withdrawn. He, however, had to pay the divisional surgeon's fee of 7s. 6d. for dressing cuts on his hand caused by the broken glass. Now he desired a summons for assault. Mr. Rose: Don't you think you had better let the whole matter drop, as a foolish Bank Holiday episode? The Applicant: No. I want to go on with it. The Magistrate: Well, you can have a summons for assault, but I should advise yon to think better of it. )
ICOAL UNDER THE BED j ICOAL…
I COAL UNDER THE BED j ICOAL UNDER THE BED ? i Iiichard Worg-an, stoker, was charged on remand at Chepetow yesterday with stealing a quantity of coal, the property of the Chepstow Gas Company. In consequence of information given to Mr. Robb. manager to the ga6 company, he taxed Worgan, who had been in the com- pany's empioy over twenty years, with steal-1 ing coal. Prisoner denied the accusation, and, consented to his house being searched. 'Ac cellar was searched without result, but upstairs under a bed was found 3Jcwt. of gas I coal. Mr. Bcrthon, who appeared for defendant, pleaded for leniency. The Bench imposed a fine c-f L5, with £ 1 3s. costs. The money was paid.
BABIES IN A POND J I
BABIES IN A POND J I Au extraordinary scene was witnessed on I Peokharoi Rye yesterday. Two perambula- tors being wheeled in opposite directions came into collision, and each mother, think- ing that the other had "ilty of oare. II lessness, oommeiiced to qut.Tml. The discus- J cion became a fight, and a man ?lomging to l one of the parties snatched up the two ba.bies and threw them into the pond. Both chil- dren were, however, promptly rescued, little the worse for their unexpected bath.
Suicide's Strange LettersI
Suicide's Strange Letters I BLAIYES HIMSELF FOR RASH ACT I Some extraordinary farewell letters were read at an inquest held at Conder-green, noa-r Lancaster, yesterday, on Robert Brice, aged 24, fishmonger's manager, of Gharltou- cum-Hardy. who shot himself. In a letter addressed to "All whom it may coacern," he w-rote:- I blame nobody. I have been brought to this state by not trusting in Providence. Hence my cowardly action, and action pre- viously. May God have mercy on my wicked soul. To his sweetheart, on the tael, of an enve- lops, he wrote: — I do not aek forgiveness. I am not worth it. 0, my God, I o-Ls tried hard to keep straight, but failed. I hope there is >10 I other man like me living at the present moment. God have mercy on my soul. Another letter, addressed to his parents, read: "Don't blame anyone for this—only I me. This is the result of allowing a brood- my mind, but have come to the conclusion j that I'm not, for I can think quite cieaxly. It's pure wickedness. God ha.ve mercy on me. This is the result of allowing a brood- ing mind to grow on me." Deceased, it was stated, had excellent, pro- spects, and no financial troubles. The jury found that he committed suicide while of unsound mind.
I I 100 AND STILL PREACHING…
I 100 AND STILL PREACHING To-day the Rev. Thomas Lord, the vener- able Oongreigationalist minister of Horn- castle, celebrates his 100th birthday. In the religious world there is probably no more remarkable figure than Mr. Lord, for, although he resigned his pastorate 30 year's ago, he still preaches frequently, and reads, or, to be more accurate, recites the Lessons in the local Congregational churches. His eyesight and hearing are not quite what they used to. be, but his voice is good, his step is firm, and his memory is spkrjdid. On Sun- day last he preached an Easter sermon to a good congreigatiion at the Horncastle Primi- tive Methodist Ohapel. Mr. Lord is fond of a good walk when the weather is fine.
