Sensation in Philadelphia - The
GhOuls Nearly Lynched.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec, 5.--Frank McNa-
NEE, Dutch Pillett and Levi Chew, the
latter Il colOred man, We're arrested late
last night while driving a wagon, contain
ing five dead bodies, to a medical college.
The bodies had been stolen from the Leba-
non Cemetery, a burying ground for col
ored persons in the lower part Of the city
The prisoners are professional ''resurrec-
tlonlsts,' and their operations have been
carried on for long time. This morning
detectives visited the cemetery ground
and arrested Robert Chewits, the Superin-
tendent, and Andrew Mullen, The pris-
oners were this afternoon held in s. 900
each for further hearing on Friday next.
When the bOdy-snatchers We're brought
into court to-day, they narrowly escaped
lynching at the hands of a mob, which
gathered around the court. Robert Chew
testified that he had been i'll the cemetery's
employ eleven years. He received three
dollars for each body taken from the ceme-
terry. Body-snatching had been going on
for nine years. His brOther-in-law, Solo
mon Butcher, now in Maryland, did it
first. Then a man named Myers and then
McNamee. Sometimes, if the wagon
came and the driver said they were
short, the cotfins were opened in
the receiving vault, the corpse
snatched, and the farce of burying the
empty coffin was gone through with next
day, The records of hurials found at the
cemetery this morning showed that in two
months tifty-tive bodies were in one grave.
This created a sensation among the
audience. AS soon as the crowd outside
of the Magistrates office learned that the
case was over, an overwhelming
rush was made for the entry
and the gateway, with threats to
lynch the prisoners, and a Sergeant and
ten Of the reserves had to be sent for.
The crowd made another rush. and men
and women struck at the captives, who
shrank and covered before them. The
policemen drew their clubs, and almost
ON tr0t Went down Chestnut street to
the Central station, where the prisoners
were locked up for the night.

Mrs. Borridity took 1t into her
head that she wanted some real es-
tate, all other property having been
rapidly getting away from Mr. Bor-
ridity. A lady friend, DESTROYS that
Mrs. Borridlty should become her
neighbor, enthusiastically informed
her that the house next door was
for sale. Then Mrs. Borridity hast
ened home and told Mr. Borridity,
who hates real estate, and he got
mad. Then she went to look at the
house, and the tenant got mad. Dis
covering some defect in the house,
she herself got mad. Going to a
builder, he offered to repair it at a
reasonable figure, but she objected
and the builder got mad. Then she
went to the owner Of the house, told
what she and the builder had said,
and he got mad. Then she proceed
ed to her lady friend and told her
that she didn't think she could buy
the house, and the lady friend got
mad. Just here Sunday intervened,
or another colony of innocent per-
sons might have got mad. Mr.. Bor
ridity has made a memorandum to
the effect that the only real estate
that ever brings peace to a man is
the little patch allotted him in the
cemetery.

a QUEER STORY FROM RUSSIA.
London Times


A very curious story has just
come to hand recalling in ones mind
the tale of the false Demetrius and
other similar impostures which have
passed into Russian history. A GER
tain Siberian merchantnamed Khra-
moff recently arrived in ST. Peters
burg and asked to be allowed to de-
liver an important packet of papers
personally into the hands of the
Gar He said that the packet had
been confded to him by an old man
who had died in his (Khramoff s.
house in Tomsk, in the year 1864,
with the request that it should be
given into the Emperor's own hands.
The mysterious parsonage, more
over, had expired with the firm i'm
preston that he was Alexander l.,
who, Russian history says, died in a
humble cottage at Taganrog of cry
sipelas in December, 1925, while on
a tour of inspection. Although at
first laughed at, it is said shat he
was at last admitted to the Gar and
delivered the packet, which was
found to contain important docu.
ments concerning the imperial fam,
lily. How they came into the pos
session of the mysterious deceased
the bearer had never been able tC
discover.

A MISTAKEN IDEA.

This idea of becoming an account
ant in three months and less time
has produced damaging results. 1t
has caused many business men to
look with contempt on Business Col
leges, as they believed it impossible
for young men to thoroughly master
the commercial branches in so short
a time; and young men themselves,
who attend College so short a time,
generally go home feeling afraid to
risk themselves in business or with
q firms books. 1t would be better
not to have a cent of their money
than to take part of it, and not suf-
ficiently qualify them as accountants
that they may be able to earn back
the money invested in their bust
ness education.
Time ReqHired.-The time re-
quired complete the Course depends
entirely upon the Students applica-
ton and ability. A Student who
completes in four months is bright
student, and has wasted no time. No
student need be discouraged in five
months, for thatis reasonable time
While any Student who. expects to
do much, when he comes in contact
with the active business world,
ought to complete in six months
The College rooms are open for in.
struction and work the entire day
and on Saturdays, Students can
receive instruction any hour of the
day or after school sessions, and
difigent Students can put in much
extra time.
