Tho secretary of large eastern insur.

that it would he better for his Office

OF the feminine employees in his Office
the pretty ones were tho least effective
and attracted the most attention, to the
detriment of the worl; of the other
clerks So he decided to engage only
women who were of mature years and
experienced Ill Office work First he adj
yertised, stating that applicants should

to u we'll known business college aud
told the manager that he did not sup
pose he would have any trouble III aid

attractive looking woman.
The manager listened to him whilc
he explained his wants, and then, going
to desk, took ont u file of letters, with
a smile, and laid them before his visitor.
There were upward of half hundred
applications from hanks and CONNER

TIE trial Nc DURANT.
The 80 evidence Was Begun
IS .esterday Morning.
Hundreds Struggled to Gain Ad-
mission to the Court Room.
Blanche LamOnts Uncle and the
Autopsy Physician Testify - a
Motive for the Crime to be Shown.

San Francisco, September 4.-When
the trial Of Durrant was resumed to-
day hundreds struggled to gain admis-
sion to the court rooms. The prosecu-
ton commenced the introduction of
evidence to-day. The first witness was
c. G.. Noble, the uncle Of Blanche La
mont He testified to her disappear
ance on April and the finding OF her
body in Emanuel Church on April IA.

The next witness was Dr.. j. S. Bar

who described the autopsy. He said
death was due to asphyxiatiOn. On the

by strangulatiOn. He expressed the
opinion that the finger marks on
Blanche Lamonts throat were made by
only one person. There we're no solids

but elected no points of advantage to
Durrant.
The police i'm the afternoon brought
TO the court room a model of Emanuel
Church, exact in every detail, to be
used i'm the trial to illustrate the testi-
mony of the witnesses.
The Examiner says the prosecution
has q witness to show the motive for
the murder of Blanche Lamont by
Theodore Durrant The witness is
Clarence Wolfe, who has told the DO
lice and will tell the jury that on the
afternoon of April .. he and Durrant
held conversation, in which Durrant
commented upon the beauty of Blanche.
In tone of eXultatiOn he assured
Wolfe that she was a pure girl. and
that he intended to rob her of that vir-
tue which she 50 prized. The prosecu-
tion Will hold that the girl priced her
honor more than her life: that explains
the tragedy OF the following day.
The source of this evidence is. in the
opinion Of Capt Lees. one of the strong
est proofs of its reliability. It's spOn-

fidence. shared mis- pleasures and took

STOOD THE TEST.
An Actual Reproduction Of the Bat
tleship, Iowa, Set Up for a Target.
An $50 Pound Shell, Driven by
46O Pounds of Powder, Did Little
Damage.

Washington D. c.; September 4.-The
new battleship Iowa Will withstand the
projectiles of the best twelve-inch gun
anOat That was the conclusion drawn
to-day from one of the most important
tests ever made at the government
proving ground at Indian Head. Since
the equipment OF modern battleships
with heavy armor there has been in
naval quarters a question as to whether
the frame work OF ships so armorer
could resist the crushing force of a
blow from one of the big guns, even
though the armor itself was capable Of
keeping the prOjectile out. Hitherto
all tests OF armor have been made
against an unyielding wooden butt. To-
day the United States, for the first time
since the use of modern guns and mod
ern armOr, began experiments TO de-
termine the actual strain and injury
TO which a battleship would be subject
ed if struck by a projectile. For that
purpose a side armor plate of the battle
ship Iowa, now building at the Cramps
yard, in Philadelphia, was ntte0 up on
an actual reproduction of a section of
the ship
After having fired two enormous ten
inch, 500 pound projectiles against
the plate, without serious damage
it was decided to subject the frame
work TO still severer test and an 1S5-
pound Wheeler sterling shell driven
by $50 pounds of powder was driven to
it from a twelve-inch gun. The pro-
jectile struck with a velocity Of 1,S00, or
or energy Of / 100000 foot pounds.
This shot should have, according to
most estimates, penetrated a sixteen
inch Harveyized plate. Although It
cracked the plate, already weakened
by the two previous shots, and pene-
trated to the wood backing, it did not
get through the backing. The enor-
nous record of the plate, however, pull
ed it from the wood about three-fourths
Of an inch. 1t was also struck
close to bilt and sent it
with tremendous force across
the compartment against the inner bot
tom, which was bulged but not pene-
trated. The outer bottom was slightly
bulged and the bulkhead, where the
shot struck, buckled.
The resistance of the frame work
really astonished all. Secretary Her
bert was greatly rejoiced at the result,
and Captain Sampson, chief Of the Ord
nance Bureau, said the injury both to
the plate and frame was very mini
mum.

Robert Albright, Of This City, Drown
ed Near Weegee.
His Body Found Near Moundsville,
Yesterday Morning, and Buried
There-The Identification OF the
Remains Completed Last Even
ing-How the Accident Occurred.

Yesterday morning Chief of Police
Bennett received a letter from Captain
S. w. Litten, OF the steamer Favorite,
conveying the information that
young man named Robert Albright, of
this city, employed on the boat in the
capacity of cabin boy, was missing, and
that it was feared he had been drown
ed. The police ascertained that the
young man was son OF Mr.. George Al-
bright, of Twenty-siXth and Chapline
streets, and his mother was communi.
Gated with, and came to the City Hall
She later went down to the boat at the
wharf and was given her sons hat,
coat and vest, the latter containing the
young mans watch. About all those
on board the boat could tell her was
that just before noon on Tuesday,
when the boat was between Bellaire
and Weegee, the young man was at
work mailing a board 10 the side of the
boat, and had removed his hat, coat
and vest, which were upon the deck
near him. Later some one went to
call him for dinner, but he could not be
found, and it was supposed he had
fallen overheard while at work. This
proved to be correct
Yesterday morning a body was found
floating in the river near Moundsville,
and an inquest was held by Coroner
Criswell at that place. Nothing was
found upon-1he body except knife, a
pair of tweezers, a comb and door key,
and these articles affording no clue to
the name of the unfortunate, the re-
mains we're inferred Last evening the
police communicated with the Coroner,
and as the articles found in the pock
cts were identified by Mrs. Albright as
belonging TO her son, and as the appar-
ent age of sixteen, the color OF the eyes
and hair, and the clothing worn corre-
spond with the description of the miss
ing youth, the Identification was re-
garded as complete, and the remains
will be disinterred and brought TO this
city to-day.
