Betsy Patterson Bona;,ar.e.

Nine. Betsy Patterson Bonaparte. the
sistcr-in-law OF an emperor, was born in
Baltimore. and after living many years
abroad returned TO her native land.
where she passed the last years of her
life.
One of the old lady's crack stories in
her latter days was of a lesson in eti-
quette given her by the black butler of
her host. at breakfast she mo.ioned
to him and handed him her cup, wish
ing a second cup of tea. Uncle Bob,
instead Of taking the cup TO his mistress
at the head of the table, put it down
with great flourish ON the sideboard.
''But wanted another cup of tea, -
said Mme. Bonaparte.
Did Won. num- blandly asked Un-
Gle Bob. 'YCu see, mum, you put your
spoon in de saucer, an that means you
doan' want no mo- tea. When you
wants some mo- tea, do erect way is
to pat dc spoon in de cup--like dis
heah. and Uncle Bob gravely illustrat-
ed the erect" method of procedure.
The family We're OH thorns. expecting
an outbreak from the sister-in-law of
an emperor, although there is NO doubt
that a black butler in his own baili-
wick could face an emperor himself,
but Betsy was only amused and laughed
heartily.
After so years of money getting and
money saving, she realized in the lat
ter part of her life how futile il I'll was
and explained grimly. "Once had
everything but money! Now I have
nothing but money. Boston Tran

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. 1S.-De-,
tectives are searching Chicago highland,
low to discover the whereabouts of
Valentine Kiefer and Miss Belle Keene,
of this city, and two little girls,
daughters of Kiefer. Kiefar was for
twenty years highly resp ected busl-
ness man here and accumulated a fort
une. 1t now develops that when Kiefer
came here twenty years ago he
had just eloped with pretty
servant girl in his family, leaving
wife and three children in Cincinnati.
In some way he compromised with her,
aud had lived here with his second wife
and made q fortune. They have three
children, one girl of eighteen, and two
girls under ten years. Saturday, Feb.
10. he told his wife the younger chill
dren ought to have their bangs trimmed,
and If she would get them ready he
would take them to the barber shop.
She did so, and they started. but never
returned. On the same day Miss Belle
Keene, young lady aged twenty-five,
the daughter OF respected parents, also
disappeared. She was friend iof
the family, and her relations with
Kiefer had been particularly friendly
The families on both sides determined
to keep the matter quiet, and employed
detectives to trace them. They have
since learned that Kiefer. with his
children, boarded Monon train at
Massachusetts avenue station, and
stopped at Monon, where he was Joined
by Miss Keene, who went up on the
next train, and together they proceeded
to Chicago.

HARRIS A SMOOTH ONE.
His Scheme of Beating the POST

AZ
CHICAGO, Feb. 1S.-Postoffiee InspectT
or Stuart will arrive tomorrow evening
from Buffalo with Leroy Harris, of
New York, who is charged with
one of the boldest and most original
series OF crimes in the HISTORIC
of. the postal service. Since, Jan. q
Stuart and Inspectors Holmesq and
Letherman, Of Cincinnati, have been
OH the mans trail. Stuart arrested the
man in Canada in spite, Of
treaty regulations. Harris was,
until October last, employed as
superintendent Of postal statidi
= IL, New. Work city. He had been in tile
! service for years, ami was thoroughly
Heonyersant' with all its delails. Ian 6
he, appeared in the postoffics in
Norton Heights, Conn, and = told
the postmaster that he was a
postoffice Inspector, and that he had
been ordered by the chief of the money
order division at Washington to'discon-
tlnue the postal note and money order
business of the town. The postmaster,
not suspecting anything, told Harris
to go ahead and help himself to
all the money order blanks that he
wanted. He took the next tram for the
West, writing on the train a lot of bogus
letters from Mrs. William IL. Clark to
himself as her husband, enclosing in
each two money orders for 800. He has
since worked the game extensively
throughout the West. Only yesterday he
created a new sensation by ..holding
up' number of officials in the COM
niissioner's Office at Buffalo with a re-
volver and making his escape, locking
the door on the outside. He was, how
ever, captured again today.

A ST. PAUL COMPOSER.
Mr.. Carman Winning Rerown in
the Song World.

With dozen stars already illuminate
ing her ornament st. Paul is bearing
another genius. From the pen of
Charles L. Carman there have just been
published nine songs, each of which, if
gair criticism may prophesy, is destined
TO be heard throughout the country.
While the expression and pracUice of
sausic hereaboutS and elsewhere has
seen rather dull, Mr.. Carman has set
his muse to the most tuneful melodies.
1.-THE Wreath You Wove" is beautiful
and plaintive melody very much after
the style Of Pinsutti. 1t is written for
a contralto or baritone, the words being
by Thomas Moore.
"Rock-a-bye-Baby" is another song
by the same author, written for a So
prano or tenor from the words of Eugene
Field. The author has very graciously
dedicated the lullaby to Mrs. Mayor
Wright. Among his other songs are
1.-THE Song l Love to Sing" dedicated
to Albert Christian, the English bari
tone and husband Of Lottie Collins, of
'Ta-ra-ra" fame. and My Happy
Home" The Little Orphan Girl"
When the Primrose and West MINISTRIES
were here the other day, that aggrega-
ton of SongSterS were attracted by the
beauty Of some of Mr.. CarmanS songs.
Within the last day a contract has been
entered into whereby our St. Paul COM
poser's work will get public expression
by these qualified artists.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Feb. Is. = The
bitter war that has been raging in the
First Coored Baptist church of this
city broke out anew this morn
ing. and a general fight with
chairs and pistols followed an
attempt to read petition,
The row started over the insurance
money of 5000 on the church, which
was burned some months ago. The
petition suggested arbitration. Pastor
Purdy, whose honesty is i'll ques
ton by one faction, refused to let
the petition be read, and. after serv-
ices, one of the expelled members, a
prominent negro lawyer, Taylor G.
Ewing, insisted OH reading it. The
Purdyites drew chairs On them and
began the fight. which waxed hot,
and three shots were fired, one of which
struck Andrew Bishop in the head.
Scott Crosthwait, leading negro doctor
was down on the floor with three men
OH top of him, but when the shots were
fired everybody fed. There were ten
arrests, and the hearing of the cases
tomorrow will be breezy. At one time
about everybody in the house had a
chair drawn on some one else. One
sister went out of the window with a
chair hung over her head, carrying sash
and all. Another woman when ar.
rested tainted while being lifted into

BOLD HIGHWAY ROBBERY.
MR.. DAHL KNOCKED SENSELeSS ON
LOCUST STREET.
RoRsED OF $3.50 IN CASH.

Dahl Was Found Lying Ensensi-
BILE on the Walk at 1910
Last Night-When He Revived
He Told of the Most Desperate
and Outrageous Robbery OF
Himself.
AT 10:40 last night John Williams, re-
siding at Cos Jackson street, while pass
ing along Locust street in company
with Henry Riegel, residing at 442 East
Ninth street, found man lying on the
sidewalk in front of st. Mary'S school
house, helpless, uaZed and half
frozen. They picked up the man,
and took him to Mr.. RiegcPs
house. The man was unable to walk
and they had to carry him along bodily.
When they got him into the house, they
found that he had very dirty hand
kerchief with which he claimed he n ad
been gagged. When they had got him
warmed up, he told his story. He SAID
that while coming from the mis-
sion church. on Bradley street,
he came down East Seventh as
far as Locust street. Here he
turned off onto Locust. On Locust
street at about 1915 lie said he was met
near the place where he was found by
three men. One of them was tall
man with full beard and long ulster.
The other two were men OF medium
size. They came up to him. and the
tall man asked him what time it was.
He replied that he did not know.
Thereupon one of the smaller men
struck him in the temple with the
butt of a revolver, remarking as he did
SO, You had better keep damn quiet,
or l Will blow your brains out" All
three men then set upon him. ripped
his overcoat open, unbuttoned his vest,
and relieved him, so he claimed. of $3.50
in bills, some loose change. a deed for
some land and his watch and chain. In
trying to get away he had a
scuffle, in which he was badly
hurt in his back. The police
were notified. and. half an hour after
the hold-up, he was taken away in the
patrol wagon. The man said that his
name was Dahl, and that he roomed at
594 Jackson street. 1t appears that,
according to his story, he drew his
money from bank in Minneapolis on
Saturday afternoon, and when he
reached st. Paul it was after banking
hours, and he had no chance to de-
pOSit it,
