plete arrangements have been made by
the Princeton Athletic association to send
a team to represent America in the Olym-
plan games to be held in Athens April

ter the best Of their athletes for the event
The following men will compose the
team: Captain Robert Garrett, '97 A. G.
Tyler, 81; J. H. Colfelt, '99; F. A.

merry throughout the three acts Charles

clever men snd charming women. One
decided novelty OF "A Green Goods MEn"
Is the Introduction Of Eewlnn, bsauti-
fully formed dancer who comes on the

most startling dances presented for many

A. Elwell Of New York. who has been
working on the case since the beginning
Of February. Previous to the date of the
alleged crimes OF arson and murder tho
town had been terrorized by numerous in
cendiary fires, and no trace of the guilty
ones could be found. The fire at tho
Champion works caused a loss Of 500, 600.
At the time the old watchman, Miller's
father, could not be found. Three days
later his charred body was found among
the debris Of the burned building. The
position of the body gave rise to suspicious
of foul play, and an investigation was be-
gun by the local police, who offered a re-
ward of $500 for the capture Of the perpe-
traitor of the double crime. This was dOu-
bled by tho owners Of the works. There
seemed a total absence of clews, and the
police apparently had accomplished but
little When tine surprise came to-day IN the
arrest of Miller and Tinker.
Detective ElVell, who has been quietly
working upon the case says he has con
elusive evidence against Miller. 1t is said
the accused son bears bad reputation and
has been involved in previous scrapes of
most serious character. IT. is alleged that
he was seen in the vicinity of the fire ten
minutes before an alarm was sounded,
without any money, while a short time
later he had plenty Of money and spent It
freely.
1t is further alleged that a few nights
before he was heard to say if the cold
man" did not give him money he would
knock him in the head The old watch
man is known TO have carried considora-
bic money on his person at all times, and
his accused son is said to have carried
$40 insurance upon his fathers life. Two
weeks ago he is alleged to have started Tor
the home Of II. b. KEEPER, one of the Off
GERS of the works with the avowed inten-
tion Of "doing him up, " but was inter-
cepted on the way and kept from carrying
out his design. He was in tho United
States navy at one time, but deserted. He
was preparing to leave town when arrested.
