DISAPPEARANCE OF a
VISITOR IN NEW YORK
A Wealthy Manufacturer Lost From
His Friends-Fenrs That He
Hns Pecn Murdered.

New York. Dec. 15.-Wiliam W. White
hill, a well-to-do manufacturer of cigars
in Warren, Mass, has mysteriously dis
appeared. He and his foreman. w. F.
Bates, came to New York last Thursday
ard went to the Hotel Andrews, South
Fifth Street and Bedford Avenue, VII
lIamsburg. Mr. Whitehill left the hotel at
nine O'Clock on Sunday morning, saying
he would return in half an hour, but he
has not been seen since.
Mr.. Whitehill had large sum of
money in his possession" Mr.. Bates said
last night, besides some valuable jew
elry, including a gold watch. we intend
ed going to see business friend on Sun
day morning, and at . o'clock he told me
to wait for half an hour, as he had an
engagement with man near the Broad
way ferry. From the hotel he walked
down South Fifth Street and that was
the last seen of him.
Miss Abbie 3. Parker, of Worcester,
Mass, to whom he has been paying atten-
tion, was visiting friends in Manhattan.
and when he did not return l supposed
he had gone over there instead of return
ing to the hotel. We had an important
engagement on Monday noon with some
tobacco dealers, and l got worried and
telegraphed Miss Parker, in Manhattan.
She replied that she had not seen Mr..
Whitehill.''
Miss Parker went to the hotel on Tues
day, alarmed at the message. Since that
time a careful search of the hospitals
has been made and kilograms sent
to different places without getting
a trace of the man. Early yesterday the
matter was reported to Capt. Short, of
the Bedford Avenue police station, and
his detectives have been at work ever
since. Up to last night not a single clew
to the missing man had been obtained
Mr.. Whitehill is described as being
about thirty-seven years old, five feet
eight inches tall and Weighing about a
hundred and sixty pounds. He has a
light complexion, blue eyes and a light
brown mustache and hair of the same
color. When last seen he wore a black
cutaway coat and dark trousers, derby
hat and black beaver overcoat. The miss
ing man wore attached to his watch chain
a thirty-second degree Masonic charm
and on his left hand seal ring with Ma
sonic symbols.
The friends of the man are utterly at n
loss to explain the mystery. The mems
business affairs were in the best condi-
ton and 1ourishing. He was always, ac-
cording to Mr.. Bates, temperate man
and had spent many years on the road
for his own and other business houses.
| All are agreed from the fact that Mr..
| Whitehill had large sum of money with
him that he has met with foul play.

DO Not Deserve IA PostofIIcr.

The recent killing in II most outrage
GUS manner of the postmaster at Lake
City, South Carolina, has brought
forth the suggestion that the postoiiice
be abolished.
There are many preccdcnts for such
action. The most conspicuous occur
red when Judge Tyncr was postmns-
ter-general under Hayes administra-
tion mt Granadu. Mississippi. The
patrons of that office attempted to
compel II white Republican postmaster
to retire, but he refused 10 do so, and
was ustained by the department. The
persecution became so serious that
General Tyner ordered the Office clos
ed and the mail dropped at the next
railway station. Granada was Il city
of about 10000 population, all of
whom We're compelled to 90 eight or
ten miles for their mail. The Missss-
ippi senators and representatives en-
denvored to bring articles of impcac CHI
ment against Tyncr. but he would not
yield. He told them that the office at
Granada would never he opened as
long as he was postmaster unless five
of the leading Democrats of the place
whose names lie gave would become
responsible for the protection of the
postmaster and the good behavior of
the populnce. AT first these gentle
men protested furiously, but finally
yielded. The postotlicc was reOpened
and the postmaster had no more trou-
ble.-Chicago Record.

Couidu't BoAt Him,

A little boy from California who has
been about a great deal Ii spending
the holidays with his Washington cous-
ins. He has enjoyed the sights of the
capital. but he hasn't permitted himself
to be in the slightest degree overawed
by anything he has seen. His cousins
took him-"carried" him, they said Of
1t themselves-to the National Museum
one day. and called his attention to a
great log of petrified wood lying just
outside the door. The little Califor-
nian had been little depressed, but
he frightened up at the sight. "I've
seen a whole tree like that" he said.
The Washington cousins maintained
their composure. We've got . whole
forest of trees like that out west" went
on the young westerner. Still the
Washingtonians were not at all i'm
pressed. The California boy drew a
long breath. We've got whole woods
of putrefied trees" he said. "Yes. and
they's putrefied birds sitting on EN-,
with one last effort to dis
turb the calm self-satisfaction Of his
companions. they're singing putrefed
songs, too."-Washington Post.
