The answer to the first question is that
there is q good trade in tinder box fints
with Spain and Italy, where the finder box
still keeps its ground in very rural dis
tricts. Travellers in unciyilized regions,
moreover, find flint and steel more trust

THE RACE TRACK MURDER
Donovan Claims That He Killed Chew in
Self Defense.

EAroNTowN, n. j., Aug. S.-Prosecut-
ing Attorney Charles II. Ivans, of the
Monmouth county court, assisted by
Aaron H. johnson, assistant prosecutor,
spent the entire day here endeavoring to
hus up additional evidence against
'Snip" Donovan, charged with the mur-
der of John Chew. Tho combined efforts
of three men, with that OF Coroner Will
lam E. Van Dyke, failed to bring forth
any facts beyond those already stated.
Besides Night Watchman Redcliff and
Frank II. Crawford, the two men held in
Freehold Jail as witnesses, the only other
person who knows anything about the
alleged quarrel between Donovan and
Chew is Henry Williamson, stable boy
in the employ of the Rancocas stables.
Williamson, it is said, was an eye witness
to all that transpired. He has stubbornly
refused to open his mouth in regard to the
murder and claims he was not present.
He will be witness mt the inquest.
Prosecutor Ivaas placed score OF men
at work to search the pond near the Ran
cocas stables for the knife used in the MUIR
der of Chew Thus far it has not been
found. 1t was said here by an interested
party that Donovan will claim that the
murder was committed in self defense,
and that to substantiate this Donovan
will show two wounds inflicted upon his
person, one being cut on'Ghe arm and
the other an alleged stab wound in the
left arm pit. The cut on the arm is very
slight, but the stab DR.. w. b. Beach, of
Eatontown, says, is very dangerous one.
A determined effort is being made at
Eatontown and at Monmouth Park to save
Donovan's life, and many claim that the
murder was done in self defense

high speed on a straight stretch of track.

Ask almost any three men what they
thought of the sale of Shakespeare's beer
jug for 9150, and they would give three
different replies, each depending ultimate
ly on radical difference of imagination.
The first would say that the purchase was
pure absurdity; the second would allege
that he had better associations with Shake
speare that beer jug could convey, and
the third would admit that, although he
thought the price little exaggerated he
could sec, or rather feel, the motive for the
competition. There is, of course, a passion
for curios, but it does not cover the whole
ground. Some sort of imagination must
be stirred by many relics which seem to
the reflective to suggest nothing-relics
like the taper stand used by Marie Antoi-
nette when she wrote her letters, or the
bootiack with which Frederick the Great
extricated himself from his boots.
There must be in the concrete imagina-
tion depths which it is difficult to follow, a
power in some men of dreaming because
their heads are on particular pillow. The
really contemplate passion is the craze to
possess a relic of one in whom the collector
has no manner of interest except this-that
as the man whose "relic" is acquired inter
ests Others some share of the feeling it in
spires will be carried to the credit of its
purchasers account. It is reasonable to
buy Shakespeare's jug for the sake of con-
ceiving Shakespeare; base to buy it in order
to be distinguished as the owner of Shake
speare's jug-London Spectator,
