HE SAID HE WAS A BARON.
The SwindIing Career or . German Tutor
Who IL Now In Prison.

LONDON. May a-Dr. Won Holmfeldt who
said he was o German baron. was caught in
the act Of robbinG till in Fleet street on the
night OF March "a. and was convicted and sem
fenced to three weeks Imprisonment at hard
labor. He had been employed as a tutor in
the family Of an Englishman Of wealth. but
had lost his occupation. and resorted to crime
to obtain money. A dynamite cartridge was
found in his pocket when he was arrested.
though there was no pr oof that he intended to
use 1t. The police look ed up his record while
he was serving out his sentence. and the re-
suit was that he was again arrested upon leav-
ing prison. and was charged with obtaining
money under false pretences. 1t seems that
he had by false representations induced the
Charity Organization Society 10 pay MS fare
to Eastbourne whera he said that he had OBJ
tanned a position as tutor. This statement
was untrue. and he also swindled tradesuen
By means Of spurious bills.
1t came out at the triaI on Saturday that he
was formerly tutor at EastboLrne. where he
had been dismissed for inducing pupils under
him to pawn articles Of their clothing in order
to buy him drink. and was guilty Of other base
misconduct 1t was also proven that he was
not a taron. though he was a man Of the high
est education. and at one time enjoyed high
position in cutered and Intellectual circles.
His downfall was wrought by indulgence in
drink and By the choral habt. He was sem
fenced to years iInprisonm III mt at hard labor.

1t is no unusual thing for persons to cut
away from their past By some quick and thor
ough stroke. and start life anew in q now
place. But in these cases the motive has gen.
orally appeared ut once and the public has
soon lost interest In this case no motive ap-
pears. and the usual preparations for COM
piete disappearance were lacking. The case.
therefore. presents features worthy Of note
aside from the humane feelings which tho
sight OF the keen suferings OF her mother and
her husband has caused all who have met
them. 1t is thought that the complete story.
as THE Sun presents It herewith. will throw a
good deal Of light on the motive. and will
prove interesting to all who like to note the
unusual phases OF human nature.
On farm near Mount Vernon. o town Of
1000 Inhabitants In the far southwestern part
OF Indiana. there lived thirty years ago a
farmer and his wife. people OF more wealth
and more education than ono generally finds
among the farmers OF that part OF the country.
To this couple. Mr.. and Mrs. Lynn Alexander.
was born. twenty-eight years ago. one child. q
daughter. whom they named Rosamond Lynn.
Mr.. Alexander died when she was two years
and half old. but Mrs. Alexander continued
20 live on the farm until the girl was eight
years old. when she moved into Mount Vernon
% that her child might attend school
Rosamond grew up into q young girl un-
usually fond OF books and devoted also to
music. her mother was Of a romantic dispo-
sition. q writer Of poems and OF exciting ro-
mances- But the daughter. having q good
deal OF her mothers strength OF character and
OF sentiment. found vent for 1t in music and in
planning an ambitious career for herself She
was graduated from the town high school at
sixteen with the highest honors OF her class
Then she went to o women's college at Jack
sonville. ILL.,. and was graduated there with
distinction. She inherited some OF her mother s
ability at finding rhyming words. and her
class poem is still read at that college.
This girl. who had grown to be a young
woman then. felt that New York was the only
place where An education could be ompleted
30 she came on here and spent several months
at Mrs Sylvanus Reds fashionable boarding
school She then went back homo to set to
work upon the ambitions Of which she had
dreamed SO much. She had left Mrs Reid's
school in the spring Of 1888. and she spent two
years at homo with her mother in the quiet.

A BOYS ESSAY ON "BREATH."

"Our breath is made of air, if it
were not for our breath we would
die The breath keeps going through
our liver, our lights and our lungs.
Boys shut up in room all day
should not breathe; they should
wait till they get out doors. Air in
a room has carbonocide in it, and
carbonocide is poisoner than mad
dogs. Once some men were shut in
a black hole in India, a carbonocide
got into that there hole, and afore
morning every one of them was
dead.
Girls wear corsets which squeeze
their diagrams too much. Girls can
not run and boiler like boys cause
their diagrams are squeezed. If
was a girl l would just run and
boiler SO my diagrams would grow.
That's all on breath - From the

DREAD CHOLERA INFANTUM
Causes Half of the Funerals
This Month.
Sup erintendent Penney's Bright
Babe Almost Victim.
The Pure Food That Saved Willie
is Within the Reach of
Every Mother.

July is fatal month for children.
Half of the funerals are those of chill
rem under five years old.
These little ones die from want of
proper nourishment.
B. Frank Penney, of the Standard
Office, New Bedford, Mass, has a
rosy little youngster, Willie, who is
the pride of his relatives and friends.
In a recently published letter, Mr..
Penney said: Shortly after Willie
was born he had a severe attack of
sickness, with symptoms of cholera
infantum. We tried various foods
and many remedies, but he grew
weaker every day, until we began to
despair of saving his life. Finally a
friend recommended lactated food
and we began using it. The child
grew better at once, and, in short
time, he was fat and strong, the very
picture of health. We have fed him
on lactated food ever since and he
has not been sick single day"
Mr.. Penney IS superintendent of
the Pleasant street NJ. E. Sunday
school. and prominent in religious
and charitable works. He feels that
he can do no better service to
mothers, who in this dangerous sea-
son are wondering what will be-
come of their little ones, than to re-
commend the food that saved his
child's life
Lactated food is not medicine, is
not a secret preparation, Is not an
ordinary food 1t is pure combina-
ton of the nutritious elements of the
great cereals, wheat and barley, to
which is added pure sugar of milk
and the salts found in mothers milk
having the most perfect nourish-
ment for infants. Its preparation is
entirely under the supervision of no
less a man than Prof. Boynton OF
Vermont University. 1t has the
hearty endorsement of the best
physicians, and has done wonders in
| gladdening the hearts of mothers
and fathers everywhere.
1t must be borne in mind that
lactated food is so inexpensive that
it is within the reach of everyone.
$50 meals can be made from a dollar
package, and the food, as prepared
for the use of infants, will cost less
than five cents a quart. In these
July days, when cholera infantum is
so common, no babe should go with
out it.

tried to send the burg laralarm do
you know what I'd have done? I'd

have had my hands about your
throat before you could have wink

YOU would have missed me. Girls
can't shoot" He said this last al
most contemptuously; but he was
sorry moment afterwards, for he
noticed that she was growing very
white and very frightened too
Nevertheless, he continued: And
after I'd got my hands about your
neck, and you couldn't scream, or
struggle or shoot, what do you sup
pose I'd have done :"
She did not reply. She could not
speak. She was trembling violently.
I'D have-I'd have"-he was en-
barrassed, and he actually blushed-
Gala CHAN blushed-''I'd have kissed
you," he said, with an effort, land
then I'd have gone away. But you
needn't look frightened any longer.
l amt going to hurt you, and / amt
going to kiss you; for some day
you'd be ashamed of it, and you'd
be ashamed to tell your sweetheart
that Rocky Callaghan kissed you.
And l amt agoing to take anything
that belongs to this house, although
l could right before your eyes. I'm
just a-going peaceably home" He
started to walk toward the window
bv which he had entered. AS he did
so, however, he looked al her critical
", stopped, and said: You're go
ing to hold out just about until I'm
gone. Then you are going to faint.
l can't leave you here alone in
faint I'll fix it." He walked delib-
eratelv to the sideboard and poured
out a glass Of wine. Here" said he
drink this, and then go up stairs to
bed as quick as you can. I'll lock
the window after go out"
She took the wine with a frighten-
ed THANK you," and drank it.
Mr.. Callaghan turned to leave.
That brings the red back in your
cheeks" he said Its good thing
when not taken during business
hours. Now I'm going, but l want
you to remember that l am not
afraid of the burglar-alarm or the
little revolver. I'm not going to rob
you, because-because you are so
brave, and because you are so pretty.
1 sort of hate to make failure of a
job, and l guess the boys will guy
me a bit for it; but you are too
pretty" Saying which, Mr.. Gala
CHAN climbed nimbly through the
window and disappeared.-[ Harper's
