FIGHT FOR DIAMONDS.
A Thief Entices n Jeweler Into His
Room for Purpose OF Robbery.

An exciting hand-to-hand encounter for
$500 worth OF diamonds occurred in q room
at the Palmer House, Chicago One Of the
combatants was young man who registered
at the hotel under the name Of Ralph Allen.
That noon he sent to Hyman's Jewelry store,
and several other similar eSta blishments,
asking that diamonds be sent 20 him for in
spection.
In making the request, he wrote, Incl
deDtally, that he -as confined to the hotel
with a sprained ankle. Salesman W. A.
Bigler was sent by HymaE & Co. TO make
inquiries concerning Allen, and found him
bathing one ankle with arnica- and wanting
the diamonds to make present. The sales
man was suspicious, but decided TO return
with an assortment of gems, and take the
precaution TO have a hotel porter, named
Ferret, stationed near at hand
When Bigler re-entered the apartment
with the $500 assortment OF diamonds
Allen made a careful selection, and then
bobbed around back of the salesman osten-
sibly to get money TO pay for the purchase.
Instead the fellow pulled heavy cane from
under a mattress and felled Bigler to the
floor. The salesman, a sturdy slI-footer,
struggled to his feet and Grappled
with Allen, meanwhile yelling TO the
porter. Before the latter individual could
collect his wits Allen had broken the cane in
four pieces over Bigiers head and dashed
tempted to stop him he shouted, Catch
that insane mar" pointing back as he ran.
Timekeeper Gregg, of the hotel staff, was
the only person not fooled by this cry.
Gregg overhauled Allen in a room into
which he had lodged and taken refuge under
bed.
Aliens papers indicate that he came from
Washington and his right name is said to be
George B. Pierce. The salesman had num-
Der Of scalp wounds. None Of the diamonds
were lost.

How he Became ~Sca6," SCI Up an
Article, and Carried the Legislature
With Him.

How Re Became q "Scao, Set Up an
Article, and Carried the Legislature
With Him.
From the NeI1 York Commercial 4I,,srfiss,
Erastus Wiman of this city tells a good
story OF an experience be rad with the
Pennsylvania legislature some years ago.
Wiman, who was first a bootblack and
newsboy and then compositor and reporter
III Toronto a good many years ago, had
made combination between the Canadian
Telegraph Company and the Western
Union He had been elected director of
the Western Union-a position that he
still retains-and went to Harrisburg
to help get some legislation through in the
interest Of his company. 1t was Il close
hight over the measure. Wiman could not
get before the House of Assembly the merits
of his case. So late one afternoon he de-
cided that an article must appear in the
next mornings paper in advocacy of the
bill. The Patriot was the only morning
paper in Harrisburg at the time. NViman
went to the Editor and told him what he
wanted, and offered liberal terms for the
publication. The proprietor told him the
compositors had gone on a strike, and that
the paper would come out the next morn
ing with nothing but old advertisements
and stale reading matter in it.
Wlman wasn't bothered q oft. He asked
If he might set up the article himself, and
whether 1t would be published if he did.
The publisher was astonished, but told the
magnate of Staten Island to go ahead. Mr.
Wiman walked up to the top floor of the
printing office that evening, lighted a lamp
in front of one of the cases and began set
ting up an article that he composed as he
went along. He had not set more than a
fe" paragraphs when the striking compost
tors gathered in the street below and begun
shouting 'scabn aud other epithets at the
man in his shirt sleeves whom they saw at
work upstairs.
At first Erastus paid no attention to the
shouts, but when stones began rafting
against the window panes, and he was in.
formed that he was threatened with loss of
limb or life, he put UP the window and adj
dressed the mob. He told them what he
was there for, without divulging his name
or the measure he was advocating He
said that as soon as he finished the article
he was setting he should quit. In conclu-
sion he told the men they had his sympa-
thies, and threw $40 down to them, re-
questing them to have a good time with it,
The shouts of derison changed into ap-
plause, and the men went away happy
Wiman finished the article, which he made
as long and strong as ne pleased. lie took
the galley of type that he had set and put
it In the form so that it was the leading and
only editorial in the paper the next morn
ing. He had used large type that made the
article all the more conspicuous. Copies of
the Patriot were literally distributed
throughout the legislature the next day,
and the measure in which Wiman was so
much interested passed soon afterward.

STATISTICS concerning the ravages of the
epidemic of influenza continue TO accumulate.
According to a report submitted to the recent
meeting of the Actuarial Society of America,
twenty-nine life insurance companies paid out
amount paid out by them during the CORE
spending quarter of the preceding year. The
increase of deaths due to influenza for this
period reached one to every ? 900 policy holders.
and this, it is calculated, would make total of
$50 losses for ell the insurance companies in
the country. The insurance returns show that
25 per cent of their death losses for the three
months are from either the grippe" or some
of its complications.
