Algernon Dougherty of the United

of his own to account for his success
as well as being the son of the famous
"Silver Tongued' Dougherty Of Phila-

while one may ride up in the elevator
one must not ride down. 1t was Mr..
Dougherty who broke down this rule
in house in the Rue de Maturin.

stopped the elevator. 1T is forbidden"

"The proprietor forbids it," said the

BOA CONSTRUCTOR CAPTURED
Two New Jersey Men XIII an Immense
Reptile Fifteen Feet
Long.

The little town of Roselle, on the
line of the Central railroad of New
Jersey, is excited over the capture
the other day of a boa constructor IS
feet long and weighing over IS
pounds. 1t was shot and killed by
Blake latham, proprietor of a we'll
known livery stable in Roselle.
He and George Draws, a barber, of
the same place. wandered over Union
county for rabbits and other game,
when yell of terror from latham
startled Draws, who was admonished
not to come near. Draws stood off a
distance and watched latham gesticu-
late and swing his arms in true In
dian fashion. latham motioned to
Draws to look in little thicket and
there he beheld the boa constructor
lying at full length on the ground
with both eyes partly opened and it's
tongue lolling about it's mouth.
Both men started to run for their
lives, but shortly came back. The
hunters climbed tree and fred both
barrels of their guns in the coiling
iiaSS at thclT leeb. Inc SnOtS took
effect and the boa constructor moved.
Fearing the snake would climb the
tree the frightened hunters came
down and ran for dear life for a mile.
Then they came back and poured vol
ley after volley of shot into the
snakes body.
When assured it was dead they
went to town and got help. A dozen
boys secured poles, and placing them
under the huge reptile with a man
dragging the creeping wonder by the
head it was dragged and half carried
into Roselle.
For months past the farmers of
Union and Middlesex counties have at
various times seen the great serpent
crawling over their farms Selling
young chickens and guinea hens as it
sped along. Where the monster came
from is not known, but it is believed
that it must have escaped from some
circus.

PRONE TO HAVE APoPLEXY.
Recent Evidences That CIergymen
Are Peculiarly Subject to This
Fatal Disease.

The number of sudden deaths oc-
curing lately among ministers is
worthy of passing note. Why this
should be so is not easy to explain.
Certainly none of the penalties per-
tanning to dissipation and high living
that directly invite physical decay
applies in their case, says the Chicago
Chronicle.
1t is true, most of them have hard
work and comparatively poor pay,
with the attendant overstrain and tire
OF the life struggle, but there seems
10 be no good reason why their or
derly lives should not in great meas
ure counterbalance mental and bodily
stress. Notwithstanding all this the
clergymen wear out comparatively
early.
FOR some reason not equally ex-
plainable with other brain workers.
there appears with them marked
proclivity toward apoplexy. Perhaps
this is in part due to continuous and
eXacting mental drudgery along neces-
sarily limited lines. But this was
hardly the case with the Brooklyn
pastor who added to his other quail
itications that of a well-merited repu-
tation for outside scientific research.
Death in his case, as is common in
some forms of apoplexy, came to him
with startling suddenness. While pre-
parlng to make a call and standing
IN his doorway, he merely straight
ened up and then slowly sank to the
floor" Evidently a blood vessel of
large size in the substance of the
brain gave way and killed him as in
stantly as the bullet from rife. The
preliminary spasm thus explained it.
self There was no warning. In fact,
as Is often noted in similar instances,
the man had previously said that he
felt unusually well.

FOR AID OF RED CROSS.
Miss Clarn Barton to Direct Arrange
ments for Holding of Twentieth
Century Watch Meetings.

Miss Clara Barton, who has reported
to her associates at New York that she
has entirely recovered from her illness,
is now expected daily to take an active
part in the direction of the organiza-
tion throughout the country of thou
sands of watch meetings that will be
held under the auspices of the Amer
lean National Red Cross, which has
headquarters at New York, at the
parting of the centuries on the night
of the 31st of the coming December.
The especially organized twentieth
century department of the Red Cross
in charge of the watch meetings has
opened correspondence with governors
and commanders of the state militia
and separate military bodies, with may
ors and chairmen of town committees,
and with the various church and char
liable and social organizations.
The progress and purpose of the
undertaking are officially outlined in
a communication which says in part:
The object of these meetings is to
raise funds for the American National
A'NN ~ OSS anu " SlS udliZt TIE ud W ulHS
OF the new century by giving world
wide prominence to that fraternity be-
tween nations which tends to amelio-
rate the horrors of war.
The Red Cross in other countries
has been endowed by various means,
but in the United States it has worked
from one national emergency to an
other without an endowment or sus-
tanning fund, and II is believed that,
at the dawn of the new century the
people of the United States will gladly
gather together in mass meetings to
watch the old century out and the new
century in, and at the same time, to
aid in the national and international
work which has for its watchword:
Humanity
The New York watch meeting will
be held in Madison Square garden.
There will be music and speeches and
the reading of greetings.
These are expressions on the prog
ress OF the century from Count Tolstoi,
Joseph Chamberlain, Dreyfus, Zola,
kruger, Sir Edward Arnold, Hall Caine,
Anthony Hope, Lord Roberts and more
than so others.

BURGLARY
House of Ed Best Entered and $40 Secured
by 7h eyes.

Mr.. Ed. Best, clerk at the Post Office
neglected to lock the door of his house
on Front street, Sunday night and
some lucky thief prowling about that
neighborhood discovered the fact and
entered the house.
He secured $40, which was in Mr..
Best's trousers pocket, and then went
upstairs to the room occupied by
Douglas Scott, who works at the cleo
trio light plant. Here he found and
appropriated $50 and then made his
escape. The family was not disturbed
and the loss was not discovered until
Monday morning.
There is no clue to the identity of
the thief.
