William Franklin who arrived in Kali

Paul, is in town today. He has just re-
turned from "a bear hunting trip to

QUEER EFFECTS OF WH,Ms

Its a curious thing how some peo-
pie Will sacrifice themselves to their

self upon his study of human nature.
Il don't mean wealthy people, for they

l am speaking now Of people in moder-
ate or less than moderate circum-
stances. have In mind a young man
whose tastes run to expensive neck
wear. He wouldn't think Of wearing
tie that costs less than s., and he
has stacks of them. Now, he can't af-
ford this luxury, so he has to stint him
self by wearing So shoes and $15 ready
made suits. He doesn't realize the in
congruity Of his attire and Is perfectly
happy II his tie Is all right.
Another chap know doesn't nav
the slightest attention to his personal
appearance and is usually rather fray
ed looking. That's because he spends
his money on expensive cigarettes. He
smokes only the highest priced import
cd Egyptian brand, and they cost him
cents apiece. He Is fend and
smokes probably 40 day. You could
not hire him to smoke domestic Gig
arctic which costs half cent, yet If he
did he could afford to dress himself as
he should. could cite numerous in
stances Of this tendency to one extrav-

Watch SDrinua.


The watch carried by the average
man Is composed Of 90 pieces. and its
manufacture embraces more than 1900
distinct and separate operations,
Handspring wire weighs one-twen-
tleth Of grain to the inch. One mile
Of wire weighs less than half a pound.
The balance gives five vibrations

every hour, 49,, 900 every day and 1877
$50, 900 every year.
The value Of springs when finished
and placed in watches is enormous in
proportion to the material from which
they are made. A ton Of steel made

Is worth more than 12h times the
value Of the same weight In pure

IN THE STORM.

Ny child. your hero may not be,
In truth, hero all the time
Remember, 1t must chance that he
Shall still have rugged sleeps to climb.
Don't place him on too high plane
In fancy; then he will not fall
In your esteem and may attain
To something noble after ALL
Ny boy, don't think your sweetheart bearp
halo on her golden hair;
crown Of purity she wears,
And you must help to keep it there,
But she will have her try ing moods
And be not always kind and sweet:
These are LIES nerving interludcs-
Sad pitfalls for unwary feet.
You both are far from perfect yet,
And quarrels will, UNHAPPY. come;
Both may be wrong; SO don't forget,
In Anglers blind delirium,
That sweet concessions each must make
And tender promises renew
Or else q loving heart may break
And sorrow come to dwell with you.

Boarding-House Of Mrs. Heisler at
No. 1916 Page Has Been Sys-
tematically plundered.
FORMER SERVANT ARRESTED.
William Witte Had Skeleton Keys
and Pawn Tickets, but Prose
cutting Attorney Requires Fur
ther Evidence for Warrant.

Seven times within the last two months
burglars have invaded the boarjins-house
OF Mrs. Emma Heisier Of No. 35l6 Page ave-
nue.. Much property belonging to Mrs. Heis-
Ter and her boarders has been carried away
and none of 1t has been recovered. William
Witte is under arrest on suspicion. at the
Eighth District Police Station. but all the
evidence obtained against him SO far Is
purely circumstantial.
About the middle Of August the depreda-
tons began. One night the house was en-
tered and several of the rooms ransacked.
Sone silverware was taken from the dining
room. and a small amount of money from
The room of one OF the boarders Several
closets were rifiel and things turned topsy
turvy. There was no evidence to show how
The burglar had gained entrance.
When the family had ceased to think OF
matter the house was again entered, but
this time little property was stolen, only
some old clothing and carving knife ON
this occasion the. burglar left the side door
unlocked. and this led to the belief that the
house was entered by means of a duplicate
key.
The following week the burglar paid an
other visit. Again a back door was left uD-
locked Drawers and closets which had
been locked were found unlocked. show
ing that the burglar used skeleton keys.
By this time the family grew suspicious
and set trap for the intruder. but he never
came while the trap was set. and they gave
it up. No sooner was Il put away than
the burglar called again. And SO he con-
tinued TO pay his weekly visits.
The last visit to the house was Tuesday
night, when stick-pin, made from n s.
gold piece. and a silver watch were stolen.
Reports were made TO the police from time
to time, but nothing was done by them un-
til Wednesday night, when William Witte.
formerly a servant employed about the
house. was arrested by Policemen Butler
and Nelson and locked UP at the Ninth
District station. On his person was found
a bunch of keys. Several of them were du-
plicate keys. belonging to locks about Mrs.
Heisers house. Some OF them were skele-
ton keys. He also had several pawn tick
cts. All this leads the police to believe that
witte Is the man who has been robbing the
house SO systematically for the last two
months.
When the facts were laid before Acting
Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Braden
yesterday, he refused 4 warrant, advising
the police to search for more evidence.

TWO INJURED BY
EXPLODING HEATER,
j. G.. Hill and William Spiers
Hurt at the Park Avenue
Power House.

In the explosion Yesterday OF 4. rel6ator.
located under the floor in the powerhouse
of the Park avenue division of the St.
Louis Transit Company, at Park ard Van
devenfer avenues. James G. Hill. an cleo
trician living at No. 3flS Folsom avenue.
WIS probably fatally hurt and William
spiers. engineer. of No. 3i5sA st. Ferdinand
avenue. seriously injured.
The explosion occurred shortly before c
p. m. At the time Hill and Spiers were
working on dynamo almost directly over
tho reheater. The explosion came without
any warning whatever. The fastenings In
the head Of the reheater gave way and
the great pressure OF steam sent il upward
with tremendous force. The report of the
explosion could he heard for blocks around.
The heavy iron drum was blown through
the iron roof Of the building. which is about
forty feet from the grou1d. and dropped IN
the car yards. 100 feet away. The floor was
ripped to pieces ana 1t was flying portions
OF this that injured EiH and Spicrs. Both
men were knocked unconscious. and those
who had been at work before the explosion
occurred consider It almost n miracle that
they were not killed outright.
Hill was struck on the back of the head
with a fragment of flying iron. which il is
believed fractured his skull. Resides this
his left leg was broken and both shoulders
dislacated. Spiers's left arm was broken in
two place. ard he was badly bruised and
shaken up. Doctor a. V. l. Brokaw, the
company physician. treated both men and
pronounced HilI's injuries very serious. Hin
is 72 years old. and it 10 feared that his
age will render his recovery difficult, If not
impossible Both men were taken 20 their
homes.
The exact cause of the explosion is not
known. 1t Is believed that for some un-
known reason additional pressure OF steam
was Put on the rsheater. which caused
the drum fastenings to give away. At the
power-house. after the explosion. no one
appeared able to give any explanation of
how the accident occurred The damage to
the plant Will amount to about SioJ.
