of Goods Snatched.
DALLAS, TEX, March 11.-One of the
boldest robberies that has ever occurred in
this state took place last night at $50
o'clock at No. COS Main street, in the very
heart of the city. Domnan Sc Samuels are

kept almost as light as day.
While Mr.. DOmnan was waiting on a Gus

fine diamond rings, valued at $1,000.
The thief was slender white

MINNEAPOLIS, March 11.-Bishop Shan

was interviewed in Minneapolis and graph

Indians on the Turtle mountain reservation,
not one of whom is able to live comfortably,

mains Nineteen Years After Death.
From the PHILADELPHIA Press.
PORTLAND, Me-. March Wv. II. Green
OF this city has in his possession an exceed
lngly rare and curious portrait of Bona
parte, which was made after his body had
been taken from the grave at St. Helena in
1910, after it had been buried for nineteen
years. This is a remarkable picture. show
ing now perfectly the features were pre-
served SO many years after death, and giving
striking view Of thu strong lines OF his face,
me history of the picture is also remark
able. he portrait was made by an emf
nent French artist, by order of Louis
Philippe, directly after the body had been
exhumed at st. Helena. The original was
a medallion about four inches in diameter.
set in pearls When Louis Philippe lost his
throne and was obliged to leave France.
one OF his officers, who departed at the same
time, took the medallion of Bonaparte and
carried it away with other articles of value.
Inc officer, whose name has been lost, came
TO Bath with Capt. William Drummond.
The officer remained in Bath for over a year.
and then went back to France, leaving the
medallion in Capt. Drummond's care. Some
years after Capt. Drummond received a
letter from the officer asking that the pict-
ure be sent over to Paris to him. Dr. Isaac
stoned by Capt. Drummond to convey the
medallion to Paris. When DIR. Cummings
arrived there the city was again in cor
fusion and he could not find the owner. He
therefore retained the picture and brought
it back to Portland. He returned it to
Capt. Drummond, first having daguerreo-
type copy of it made by the captains per-
mission. The original is now supposed to
be in the possession of Capt. Drummond's
daughter, who is an inmate of some re-
hgious institution in France, near Paris
The copy was kept by DR.. Cummings for
thirty-tive years or more, and was then
given by him to William Ii. Green of
Princes Express, in this city, who still re-
mains in possession of it.
The daguerreotype is as perfect as the
day it was taken and shows not a sign of
fading. The original may not be in exist
ence, or it may possibly have been returned
to the French government by Capt Drum
mond's daughter. This does not appear
likely, however, for if it had been some one
would have seen it before this and repro
duced it among the other portraits of Napo-
leon which are extant.
The picture has been shown to a number
of Frenchmen; among others, to one who
saw Napoleons body in 1910, when it lay in
state in Paris. They all pronounce it

ANOTHER LINE TO FLORIDA.
A Surveying Corps at Work West OF
Savannah.

OhN6n1du.
A surveying corps crossed the Savannah
river at Ku-Klux Ferry, Monday morning,
fully equipped to push the survey to Jack
sonville via Jesup. Ku-Klux Ferry is two
miles above Sisters Ferry, where the South
Bound will cross.
Maj. w. W. Lauton of Hampton county.
on whose place the engineering corps
camped while surveying in that county,
informs the Guytou correspondent Of the
MORNING NEWS that the people of his sec
ton want and prefer connection with Sa-
vannah via the South Bound, but if the
projectors of the South Bound should fail
to build the road the people will extend all
their aid to the other road. Both roads
have been surveyed across Maj. Lawton's
plantation.
1t is understood that the Robinson syndi-
cate is behind the road now being surveyed
southwark. Two routes have been surveyed
from Raleigh, one via Sumter and the
other via Columbia. The line has been run
to Blackville and via Hampton Court
House to Ku-Klux ferry, and, cross
ing into Effingham county, the
about the 25-mile post, this side of MARROW,
from thence to Jesup and thence due south
TO Jacksonville. 1t is claimed by the pro-
]ectors that this line will shorten the dis
lance $50 miles between New York and
jacksonville.
1t is said that Jacksonvilles support to
the new road is with the proviso that it
shall run west of Savannah.
Gen. Alexander, president of the Central,
when asked about the new road
Yesterday expressed a doubt that it
Is backed by the Robinson
syndicate. He says that the bonds have
been foated for tire road that the Robinson
system is extending westward to Atlanta.
Zen. Alexander had not heard of any pro-
j7ct on the part of the Robinson system to
push a road southwark on the line now
being surveyed.
The projectors of the road, it is thought,
will spur the South Bound people up to
prompt action. and it is predicted that,
with the South Bound completed from
savannah to Columbia, nothing more will
ever be heard of the road that proposes to
run through the country in twenty-five
miles of the principal seaport of the South
Atlantic coast, and zigzag around in the
back precincts, to keep out of the city, on

GurLTLEss IN PRISON.
Mrs. Davis Sacrifice for the Sake of
Her Children.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
NEWARK, March 9.-It has Just come to
light that Annie Allen, who was pardoned
from the Trenton state prison last Tuesday,
is Mrs. Helen Davis, wife of David Davis,
who fifteen years ago was one of the most
prosperous merchants in this city.
Davis, after amassing fortune of nearly
S250,000, retired from business and. pur-
chased a number of race horses He soon
became familiar figure at all race tracks
in this section, and his wife often accompa-
MED him. Like the great majority Of race
track patrons, Davis fortune soon vanished.
and his horses went with it. At that time
he lived in a handsome residence on Fifty
ninth street, New York, but in 1856 he was
Obliged to move to Union Hill, N. j., and
lived in palmer style.
sALESwoMAN FOR TIFFANY.
He resumed the fancy goods business
again, and while he was conducting it sue
cessfully his wife, who was a diamond ex-
pert, was making good salary travelling as
a buyer in Europe for Tiffany & Co. and
Mrs. Lynch, a Broadway diamond dealer.
With a second fortune thus amassed Davis
took to the race track again, with the same
result as ON his first venture, only his
money went much quicker Last May,
while crossing on q Hoboken ferry boat from
sporting women with whom she had become
acquainted whenEvisiting the race tracks
One of them, named Barton banded her a
pocketbook and asked her to hold it few
moments for her. When the boat reached
the Jersey shore cry was raised that a
womans pocket had Teen picked. In the
confusion that followed the Barton woman
and her friends disappeared on the dock,
and Mrs. Davis discovering this, called the
attention of the lady who had lost tho
purse to the one that had been given to her.
The woman identified it, and as the con-
tents were gone Mrs. Davis was arrested.
SHE GIVES ANOTHER NAME.
Taking tue advice of a friend and not dea
string to have her children know of the
charge she gave the name of "Annie Allen"
and refused to give her address. This told
against her in the court and she was sem
fenced by Judge Lippincott to two years
and half in state prison. Since her incar-
ceration her children have believed she was
in Europe on business trip, the heart
broken father never acquaintlng them with
the true statement of affairs. After Mrs
Davis arrest her husbands health began to
fail and last Monday night he died, just
eighteen hours before she was released.
The funeral took place Wednesday and
Mrs. Davis mourned with her children at
the bier. Davis was financial manager for
Arthur Chambers, the pugilist, during his
tour, and also backed him in his fight.

TRIED TO KILL A DOCTOR.
An Insane Woman Puts a Pistol to G
Mans Face and FIRES.

ROANOKE, VA, March 11.-Just after
dark last night, Miss Nora Wooton went to
the residence of DR.. Il. A. Sims, a promi-
nent physician of the city, aud on his ap-
pearance at the door in answer to her sum-
mons, placed pistol to his face and fired.
The bullet struck his chin and glanced off
without doing any serious injury. About
two weeks ago Miss Wooton was adjudged
insane by a commission of lunacy, but for
some unexplained cause the authorities
neglected to have her confined

ARCHITECTURE.

Col. J. II Estill Editor and Proprietor of the
MORNING NEWS, Savannah. Ga, writes to Mr..
shopPell, the architect, as follows: II think
your work Of furnishing architectural designs
and building plans at reasonable prices has
greatly improved the character of American
houses making them comfortable and pictur-
esque. and at the same time at less cost than
would have been entailed upon the builders had
they built in the old, ugly style. You are also
helping architects by educating people up to a
proper appreciation of their work. l think you
are entitled to niche in the temple Of fame as
one who has contributed 20 the comfort and
happiness of his fellow creatures"
