Colonel Thomas p Lowell died at the
St. James hospital, Jacksonville, Fla,
Saturday. He was the third son of the

was born Dec. IA, 1S4S. At the age of
Is years he entered his fathers store
in Boston and continued in the business
as clerk, partner, and finally as one of
the directors of the John p. Lowell
Arms Company up to the time Of his
death. He was an enthusiast in mat
ters pertaining to base ball, and organ
lied and helped the John p. Lowell
base ball team. He was also president
of the New England Base Ball League
for several seasons. His health had
been very poor during the winter, and
early in the cold weather he went
south with the hope that change to a
warmer climate might prove beneficial.
He was accompanied south by his
two daughters, Misses Cecil and Mu-
settle Lowell. A few days ago Mrs.
Lowell and Colonel B. S. Lowell were
informed of his condition, and started
for Jacksonville at once. They were
with him when he died. He had made
his home for many years in BrOokline
He married in 1875 Miss Jeanette Bragg
of Hyannis.
Mr.. Lowell was well known in Wor-
cester. where he had many friends. In
the heyday of the old New England
Base Ball League, he was a frequent
visitor to the city, and as recently as
the polo enthusiasm was one of the
enjoyable sports here. he helped to
back it with his money and his time.
He will be greatly missed in the best
circles of New England sporting life.

Sleuths Are Bsffled.
Sunday nights robbery at the home
of Mrs. NJ. w. Dickinson, I Sever street,
brought out no new developments YES
terday, although the police got TO work
on the case early in the morning and
followed up every possible avenue of
escape that the burglars might have
taken after leaving the house.
In the three robberies which have oc-
Cured in a space of about six months,
nothing has been left behind that would
in any way give a clue to the local 20
lice as to the identity of the men VINO
did the work.
Inspector O'Day is of the opinion that
the men drop in and out of Worces-
ter periodically, and make their hauls,
disposing of the booty secured in some
out of town place. The story told yes
terday by the servant girl differed
somewhat from the story told shortly
after the burglary, inasmuch as she
said that she did not know anything
of the robbery until the arrival OF Mrs.
Dickinson, although she saw the men
going away.

officials at Washington in the case OF three i'm
migrants. Giovanni Anselmo and her two chill
dren. Emma and salvatore. who arrived here
on the steamship Spartan Prince on Feb, 2, and
were debarred on the ground that they were
likely to become public charges. The children
had been born In this country, but their father,
Alberto Anselmo, had never been naturaliZed
here. Commissioner-Gener Powderly's LETT
ter 70 COMMISSIONS Fitchio, under date OF
Feb. %. reads In part as follows;
Upon q review OF the evidence II appears
that tho only ground upon which an appeal
from the decision OF the Board OF Special In
claim that the said Emma and Salvatore. hav-
ing been born in this country. were citizens
thereof. and. as such. not immigrants. For the
purpose OF settling authoritatlv ely the ques-
ton raised, the papers In. this case were re-
ferred to the solicitor OF this department. who.
after q careful review of the authorlties. has
rendered an opinion that a child born in this
country Of a foreign father and taken abroad
by his father acquires said parents domiclle
and nationality. In. view of this opinion the
appeal Is dismissed, and you are directed to
deport the said Anselmo Giovanni and two
children to the county whence they came. in
The ruling Is summarized thus:
Children born in the United states OF nom
