were in despair when told that there
was no such industry as camel driving
in New Yorb, and that they were un-

Of Don Juan and Tom Moore.

| Interesting "reminiscences of tho Author
Of Don Juan and Tom Moore.
| The scene is Venice, the time the fore
noon of an early autumn day in 1917, and
the light sea-fog which has drifted in from
the lagoons lies gently On the oily swirls of
the canals, and throws golden vail over
the carveu fronts of the marble palaces,
| which line the sides of the Grand canal
Under the influence OF the mist, permeated
! by the rays Of the morning sun, which had
risen IN cloudless sky, Venice seemed
like to that tabled golden city of the Iucas,
the lode star which drew many a brave
gentleman to ultimate death and. destruc-
ton. Carelessly reclining on pile of
cushions in large, well-appointed gondoIa,
which was gliding quickly down the Grand
canal was young man Of singular aD-
pearance.
Sitting opposite to him, writes Horace
Townsend in Once Week, was a plump,
6apper little man, common place in feature,
but dressed in the height of the prevalent
fashion. He sat stif1y III his seat, occa-
sionally CHANGING at his companion as
though iouging for him To speak, and yet
not daring himself to begin the converse
ton.
At length, when the goudola had left the
canal, and was cleaylng the blue waters of
the lagoon in It's path toward the Lido, a
low, long island which. the sun having by
thus time dispersed the morning mist, was
visible al 70 great distance.
Ar. Moore, for this was his name, could
not longer restrain himself and burst INTO

LACK THE RIPPER"
Re Murders His Wife at Dundee, Scotland,
and Thus Discloses lis Identity

LONDON, Feb. 1.-THE body OF woman
concealed in a wooden chest was discover
ed today by the police of Dundee. The alb
domen was ripped open and the body 9TH
erwise mutilated, The chest was so small
that the murderer had been compelled to
squeeze the body into it. The husband of
the woman has been arrested on suspicion.
A dispatch from Dundee says that the
murderer of the woman whose mutllated
remains We're found in a chest there today
is w. H. Bury, the husband of the victim.
Bury was resident of Whitechapel, Lon
don, and his antecedents which have been
traced suggest that he is probably Jack
the Ripper" and that he is subject to fits
of unconscious murder mania. The post
mortem examination held on the body of
the Dundee victim proved that the woman
had first been strangled and that her body
had been mutilated, the abdomen being
ripped open and the legs and arms twisted
and broken. Bury says that he left
Whitechapel three weeks ago. He refuses
to say why he left Whitechapel and ac-
knowledgeS that he had no business re-
quiring his attention at Dundee. He says
that he and his wife drank heavily last
night before retiring and that he does not
know how he got to bed On awakening
he says he found his wife lying upon the
floor with rope around her neck.
Actuated by sudden mad impulse, for
which he cannot account, he seized knife
and slashed the body Upon reason re-
turning he became alarmed and hastily
crushed the body into the chest in which
it was found, thinking to fly and make his
escape He found, however, that he could
not leave his wife's remains and he finally
resolved to inform the police
Tae theory of the police officials is that
Bury's wife knew of facts connecting him
with the east end atrocities and that she
took him to Dundee in the hope of pre-
venting recurrence of the crimes.
