MYSTERY HANGS
OVER HIS LIFE
A Frai' Youth Deserted by Blind
PeddIer. Supposed to Be
His Own Father.

Frank Hough, a young man who has
been i'll al the Retreat for the Sick for a
week or more, has a mystery back Of his
life. all efforts to unravel which uave
proved of no avail.
Up to short time ago be supposed that
his name was Hough and that he was the
son of a blind peddIer OF that name, who
lived for several Years near Chester, Va.
Now he finds that this is not the case.
He has endeaVored to learn something of
his parents and home, but thus far with
out success.
Some fifteen Years ago u blind peddler
named HouSh came Chester bringing
with him a boy of five or six years OF age.
lie purchased a small home and made
this the centre of his operations, ,"hi1n
extended to the north and northwest. He
went off on long trips OF several months
at a time, as far as Michigan and Wis
consin. The boy went with him ana led
him, and there was no other thought
among those who knew them but that
the boy was his son.
The elder Housh was man Of ro"ilg,
adventurous spirit, in spite of his blind
ness When Frank was about Sixteci.
years of age, the blind peddlcI traded his
little piece of property neaI Chester for
a small farm in California. The boy w>'S
lett behind. ana then for the ~ tjlnr
was informed ny the blind petld.cr 1ha;
he was not his son. IT has since been
learned at Chester that the elder t;,ug.l
soon afterwards left California and Wa:lE,
TO the klondyke.
The boy, thrown en- his own resources
and without relatives or home. made q
manly fight against adverse conditio Is.
not the least Of which was and is 2 Geli-
cate constitutions By hard earned saw
inSS he sent himself to school fo1 :. :,ne,
and in every way won the confidence and
respect OF the neghborhoud as 4 worthy
and correct young man. For some anne
he was III the employ o. the i.;lrinv.I;.e
and Powhatan Rai!rold, but last f.Ii his
health began to fail, AMI since then he
has been unable TO WORK regularly.
Through the kindness of AR. lI. D Eich-
Retreat, where he has been for week
or more.
Young Mr.. Hough does not know ana
probably will never know how he got
into the blind peddier's hands. He has
no recolections of home or parents In
fact. he recalls nothing back of the time
when small boy be was leading the
old blind man about as the latter sold
his wares.
1t was absolu, ~ necessary for the
blind peddler to have small boy to lead
him, but whether years ago this little
fellow came into his possession rishlfuliy
or otherwise, seems now 4 mystery PAST

PORTO RlCAN CASE.
Argued Further Before the Supreme
Court.

C'y Associated Prcss)
WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-Cpon the re-
conveninS Of the United States Supreme
Court to-day. MIR. T.. L. Coudert, Jr., re-
sumed his argument in the Porto Rican
cases. continuing his contention that
Porto Rico is not foreign territory and
hence that it is incompetent for the Gov
ernmcnt authorities to levy and collect
duties upon articles imported from Porto
Rico to New York
Before taking up the thread of his ar
Sument, Mr.. Coudert undertook to re-
spond to question propounded to him
yesterday by Justice Brown. The ques-
ton was whether a country can cease TO
be 2 foreign country and yet not be part
of the United States, whether there is an
Intermediate condition.
Replying. Mr.. Coudert expressed the
opinion that such Il condition might exist
temporarily, and he added that the Su-
preme Court had recognized it in dealing
with Tampico, in the case OF Fleming VS.
Page, and in dealing with California. in
the case of Cross vs.. Harrison. before the
acquisition of California by the United
States was completed.
Alphonso Hart also argued that the
President being an executive officer only
there was no right to impose duties on
commerce between Porto Rico and
other parts = The United States by ex-
ecutive order after the ratification of the
Paris treaty. Such order was null and
void and without authority Of law
SOliCitor-General Richards began the
presentation OF the Government side of
the controversy, giving especial attention
to the effect of the ratification of the
Paris treaty upon the relation of this
country and Porto Rico.
lie concluded with the statement that
the Paris treaty never intended to make
these tropical islands, the islands as
quired by the Spanish war. a part OF the
United States in the constitutional sense
and just as certainly did make them a
part of the United States in the interna-
tional sense.
