Second Meeting of the Wopcester
League Yesterday.

At the Woman Suffrage Leagues
second meeting of the year, yesterdays
at the house of Mrs. Alkaline H. How
land, the main business related to the
fair to be held in Boston Dec. SO in
elusive, under the auspices Of the Mas

THE STORE is EMPTY.
Creditors and Clerks Miss
the English Clothing,
Company.

There is an empty store at 100 Front
street. Up to Wednesday, the place
was occupied by what purported to be
the English Clothing Company" and
long tables were piled high with
clothes. Today il the debris was gath
cred in a heap with the broom, and
thoroughly sifted, nothing, with even
the value of collar button, could be
found. The company vanished as sud-
denly as 1t came. Clerks and creditors
are looking for their money, and the
matter has been reported to the po-
lice.
1t would be hard to say which of the
two contingents, the clerks and credit
ors that crowded about the empty
store, Wednesday, was the madden.
The clerks were indignant because
Wednesday was supposed to be pay
day, and many of them had laid plans
for the evening. The creditors stepped
about lively, all talking and gesticulat-
ing at once, because there was not an
asset in sight to counterbalance their
liabilities.
From what could be learned yester-
day, the firm packed all it's goods into
teams in the early hours of Wednesday
morning, and, unheralded, and with the
silence of an Indian practicing wood
craft betook itself to parts at present
unknown.
The departure was so unlike the in
coming of the firm, that it caused much
comment. When the firm first struck
the city and threw out it's shingle, it's
enterprising advertising agent lost no
time in making the fact known to the
public, and within a few days every
man and woman and child in Woroes-
ter knew that there was one more place
in town where man could be out
fitted cheap.
This advertising agent was an artist.
He knew his business from the sub
cellar of it's alpha to the towering dome
Ct it's omega. In an alluring announce
ment to the dear public, he set forth
that his company had taken advantage
Of a Boston wholesaler who yielded to
the never-failing power of cash. The
sale, he saiG with a flourish Of trum-
pets, was not coming-it was already
in full blast"

kLONDIKER RETURNS.
Pritchard's Success Was No Better
Than That of His Companions.

Pritchard's Success Was No Better
Than That of His Companions.
William f. Prichard, one of the orig
inal Klondil1e gold seekers that left
Worcester with the Wilkinson party
about two years ago. returned home
yesterday, lookingt the picture of health,
but without retinue Of retainers car
rying gold by the bagful on their
backs. Like most Klondikers, Mr..
Prichard and the others toiled over
weary miles of ground in search of
fortune, and then disheartened came
back to Seattle, where he secured a po-
sition as a drug clerk.
The story of the Klondike experiences
of the Wilkinson party are as familiar
as household words and twice told tales
to Worcester people, not only from the
news contained In letters from the
frozen north, but also from the recital
of the personal experiences of men that
have drifted back home. The Wilkin-
sons, who led the party northward with
such eclat, were among the first to
come back to Worcester, and one by
one the others have followed, until to-
day there are but few of the original
party left in the northern gold fields.
For the most part. hardship, priva-
ton and sometimes hunger have been
their store.

TWENTY YEARs OF PROGRESS.

Within the past few weeks an interest,"
ing anniversary occurred in connection
with the tourist business in this country.
On the 8th of October, 1920 years ago
Messrs. Raymond & Whitcomb sent out
their first excursion party. Both menu
bers of the firm were interested individ-
ually in promoting pleasure travel as
agents of prominent railway lines and
had previously been energetic in their
personal capacities in such directions, but
this was their first joint effort as a firm.
The tour was only an excursion from
Manchester, N. H, to Montreal, but it
embodied the principle of ''all travelling
expenses included" which has always
formed an important feature In this de-
partment of the firms business. 1t now
represents some of the largest railways of
America and England and some of the
greatest steamship lines in the world,
From small force of clerks and con-
ductors originally required, its employees
have grown to a small army in numbersi
and its New York office, prominently
situated on Broadway. at Union square,

Judge Putnam Files
Report on Death
of j. 0. Copp.
LAKIN'S TESTIMONY REVIEWED.
Natural Inclination of Man
is to Save and Not
Take His Life.

Yesterday, in the superior court, the
inquest upon the death of James o.
Copp, was filed by Judge A. A. Put
nam of the second district court Of
southern Worcester. Mr.. Copp, on
Sept. %, obtained $4,000 worth Of in
surance through Worcester agencies.
On Sept. "a he was killed by the cars at
Uxbridge. In the inquest Judge Put
nam says in part:
"It appears from such evidence as
was obtainable that the said Copp had
been a passenger on said train, from
Providence until it arrived at Tx
bridge station; that there he alighted
from the train, leaving his overcoat in
the seat he had occupied, and that af-
ter the train had started on its course,
he attempted to get thereon and fell or
was precipitated hereunder and was
run over. The baggage master of the
train was one Charles J. Larkin, who
testified that after the train had start
ed he saw a man in size somewhat cor
responding to the stature and weight
of the deceased, purposely as it seemed
to him, dive under the combination
car, between the forward and rear
trucks thereof, the said Larkin stand
ing at the time in the baggage apart
ment of said car, and looking from the
doorway of the same, the door being
open.
There was no direct evidence con-
tradicting the evidence of the witness,
nor was there any tending to show
motive on his part, to misrepresent the
fact whatever it may have been. The
accident or catastrophe occurred in the
night time, and while the train was in
motion. These circumstances, it is be-
lieved, may have easily misled the OBJ
servations of the witness and accord
ingly 1 find that the testimony,
however positive, should hardly be per-
mitted to overcome the presumption
ever prevailing that man prefers to
save rather than lose or destroy his
life. 1t does not appear that the death
of the said James o. Copp was the re-
suit of any negligence on the part of
the said railroad company or any of it's
servants, and I find that it was not"
MISS LEONARD'S DEATH.
Judge Putnam also filed a report on
the death of Myrtice Mabel Leonard
of Douglas. The findings state that she
came to her death on Oct. 8, 1899, in
Douglas, by being shot in the breast
| with a. revolver discharged by one Hal
Alexis Hollingsworth, a resident of
| Douglas, who for such offense was
placed in arrest and is now held for
i trial.
