County Detectiye Thomas Leyshon
was brought prominently to the atten-
tion of the people of the county this
week by the clever work he did in
having Angelo Pelozi arprehended at
Naples Italy, for the murder of An
tonic Spinello at Old Forge, October
20. The nature of Mr.. Leyshon's duties
subjects him to no little abuse and
very frequently this blinds the public
and prevents them from giving due
credit for the truly excellent work that
Mr.. Leyshon does in making law
breaking unpleasant and Improbable
among the cosmopolitan population of
this county.
Ever since Spinello was murdered
on the night Of October 80 by Pelozi,
Mr.. Leyshon has worked increasingly
night and day to bring the murderer
to Justice, and his efforts were re-
warded by the arrest of Pelozi as he
was leaving the steamer at Naples,
Italy, on Wednesday last on which he
fled from this country.
The detective was approached by
colleagues Of the murderer, who Of
fered their assistance in locating Pc
lozi In every instance he learned that
these men were playing him false and
trying to throw him off the track
Their efforts were unavailing. for Mr..
| Leyshon followed out his own theory
| and it proved to be the correct one.
After satisfying himself that Pelozi
| could be extradited, the detective set
| to work to have every outgoing steam
! ship from New York for Italy watched,
| and the very day Pelozi's friends in
| formed the detective that the fugitive
] e
! learned he had sailed for Italy. A
cablegram to the United States consul
at Naples caused the arrest of Pelozi
as he was leaving the boat. Mr.. Ley
shon has been successful in bringing
many criminals to justice in Lack
awanna county, who, but for his per-
severance, might have escaped the
punishment their crimes merited.
Thomas Beynon, whose fine tenor
voice is heard each Sunday in the
Second Presbyterian church, is anx-
/ ious to take a course in voice culture
under the renowned Prof. Savage, of
New York, and his many friends, Se-
sirous of assisting him, have decided
to give him a testimonial concert at
the Lyceum on Thursday evening,
| Dec. 7.
Mr.. Beynon has ever been more than
generous with the people of Scranton.
His services We're always at the dis
posal Of the public for every worthy
charity that gave anything in the way
of an entertainment and it is only just
that those he has so often assisted
should now assist in making the COM
ing concert a success that will make
II a testimonial in more than a none
tary sense, Mr. Beynon is a resident
| of West Scranton.

A TRUE BR AIN
Can be Built by the Right Materials

Odu DO DulIt ny Uht ho
The statement is made and is sus-
ceptible of proof that brains are built
somewhat as wall or house is built
of certain defined and we'll understood
things.
Wood may be the principal and larg-
est article in a house, but 1t cannot be
formed into house without the nails,
bolts or screws to hold it in shape
We know that albumen is the bulki-
est thing used by Nature in building a
human brain; but albumen alone does
not make a brain. 1t requires the
small particles of Phosphate Of Potash
Clke the nails in the house, to form
the albumen into what is known as
grey matter in brain and nerve tissue.
The albumen exists in large quanti-
ties in a variety Of food.
The Phosphate of Potash is found in
its truest form in certain parts of field
grains When a man shows brain fag
or woman shows nervous symptoms,
it Is prin1a facie evidence that the
Phosphate of Potash is used up faster
than the food supplies it. Therefore
either quit the worrying work or get
food strong in the natural Phosphate
of Potash, to more quickly and surely
replace the daily loss.
That is the especial errand of the
famous food, Grape-Nuts.
Good sturdy nerves and a healthy
active tireless brain will make a man
rich where he is sure to fail when the
brain is unable to carry out the be-
hests of the mind.
Remember that Phosphate of Potash
as a drug will not do for Nature takes
kindly only to such body builders when
presented in food as prepared in
Dame Natures own laboratory.
Grape Nuts are to be found in all
first class groceries, and once tried
the delicious flavor will never be for
gotten while the feeling of increased
strength and vigor of brain and
nerves will tell its own tale.
