BUY A PAPER, PLEASE"
The Strange Case of Beautiful Young
Woman who Left her Home.

Woman who Left her Home.
Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch. |
New YORK, Dec. 24-'Buy a paper,
please" The beautiful news vender was
sweet faced fashionably attired lady,
who stood upon the sidewalk in front OF
the basement in front of 1871 Third avenue.
She was apparently about twenty three
years old. Her eyes were of deep, dark
blue and she had a wealth of brown hair
lighted up with touch of gold The base
ment was fitted up with few shelves and
couple of chairs together with small
stock of newspapers. 1t was in the capa-
city of pretty news girl that Mrs. John
Earle, of No. 432 West Thirty-eighth street
thus found her daughter, May Ella, this
morning. The young lady had been mis-
sing from home for several days and her
mother has spent many weary hours en-
deavOring to discover her whereabouts.
Mrs. Earle gave a shrek of joy when she
saw her daughter. May Ella chung to her
bundle of papers and did not seem pleased
at the recognition Come with me. dar-
ling" exclaimed Mrs Earle, II have
searched all over the city for you"
mo, l shall remain here,,' replied the
girl, II am established in business and in
tend to stay here"
Mrs. Earle's entreaties and commands
alike were useless. Mrs. Earle discovered
that May Ella had rented the basement a
few days previously and was living alone
there Mrs. Earle at length was driven to
appeal to the police and an officer was sent
to the news stand with her. He advised
the girl to return home, but she persisted
in refusing. The policeman took May
Ella to Bellevue hospital, where she will be
examined as to her sanity. Mrs. Earle
thinks that disappointment and worriment
have turned her daughters mnb.
Several years ago she decided to become
a school teacher and devoted all her time
TO study ing for the position. She went up
for examination three different times, but
each time failed to pass by a narrow mar
gin. Her disappointment preyed upon her
mind. She became moody at times and in
a rambling manner some weeks ago she
left home and went to live at Harlem. She
boarded with family of friends and when
she disappeared they notified Mrs. Earle
At Bellevue hospital the physicians ex-
pressed the opinion that with few weeks
rest she would recover. What induced her
to take up the calling Of newspaper ven
der is a mystery to her mother and all
friends

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
Judge Gresham Sustains the Claims of the
Brush Electric Lighting Company.

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec, 24.-Judge Gresham
to-day decided case of general interest in
the suit brought by the Brush Electric
company, of Cleveland, against the Fort
Wayne Electric Light company, for in
fringement of the Brush patent upon the
so-called double carbon lamp. The case
has been vigorously prosecuted and de-
Tended and has been pending about three
years. All of the claims of the Brush pat
ents were sustained, six in all, and declared
to be infringed. These claims cover all
night electric lamps used for street light
ing where two or more pairs of carbon are
employed. The patent was attacked by
the defense mainly upon the grounds that
its claims were too broad and sweeping,
but this defense did not avail. The electric
lamps controlled by the patent are in use
throughout the country and in fact, the
world over wherever street lighting by
electricity is had.

LONDON, Dec. 24.-At meeting of the
Pelican club last night it was resolved to
send letter to Slavin, the Australian pugi-
list, expressing sympathy for him in the
treatment accorded him in his fight with
Smith and admiration for his courage. The

champion OF England and present him with
belt and purse. Fleming, who acted as
Smiths umpire and who was a member of
the club, was suspended from the club
pending an explanation. In an interview
Fleming said he was not acquainted with
the roughs who caused the trouble, but
they We're doubtless friends whom Smith
hired to interrupt the fight in the event of
its going against him.

BERLIN, Dec. 24.-The Vossische Zeitung
has an interesting article on the German
attitude toward Stanley in which it says
that if the German enthusiasts for colonial
development should attempt to follow the
lame attacks upon England by assailing
Stanley, they would prove themselves a
mean-spirited people in the lowest sense of
the word. In their reception of Stanley
the people of Berlin should not allow them
selves to be influenced by any other feel
ings than those of admiration for Stanley,
for his courage, resolution and achieve
ment. They must honor him as the guest
of the Emperor and as the greatest living
African explorer.
As soon as the Samoan question is set
tied Knappe will resume his position as
German consul there.

ROME, Dec. 24.-His holiness the Pope
received to-day the sacred college CT cardi-
mails, the supreme council or senate of the
church. In addressing this chosen body of

that among the children of the church
themselves there is perfect unity"
His holiness announced that he would
