FAILS TO GIVE BOND.
Henry w. Supp1ee Sent to Jail
Charged With EmbeAAlement.

Henry w. SuppIee Sent to jail
Charged With ENDORSEMENT.
Henry w. Supplee, aged twenty-four
years. by occupation bookkeeper, was to-
day sent to Jail in default OF $1,000 bond
to answer the charge Of stealing consid-
erable sum Of money and a valuable bond
from Ffoulke & Co., by whom he was en-
ployed as bookkeeper. The accused man
was not in court, and at the request OF his
counsel, Mr.. CampbeHs Darlington, to fix
bond to secure the release Of the accused
man. Prosecutor Mullowny named the sum
above indicated.
Supplee was arrested yesterday afternoon
by Detective Sergeants Hartigan and
Boyd, on a warrant charging him with en-
bezzling $39O7 in cash and bond OF the
Fort Worth and Denver City Railroad
Company for 81 eco. Supplee has for some
time past been in the employ of Ffoulke &
Co.. but was discharged Saturday last.
Although his salary was but $l3 week
Supplee, it is alleged, was addicted to some
quite expensive habits, among which was
the keeping of an automobile at rental
of 500 month. These things were no.
ticed by Supplies employers, and during
the last few weeks, it is said. they Kept
close watch upon him. 1t is stated that an
investigation showed that the accused man
had from time to time embezzled nearly
81 900 and the bond of the railroad COM
pany referred to.
After Supplies arrest he was taken to
detective headquarters and examined by
Capt. Boardman, to whom, 1t is said, he
made confession and attributed his fall
as the result Of disastrous speculations in
stocks. He purchased stocks on margins,
he said and protected them with money
taken from his employers. In three days,
1t Is alleged, he took $1,000, and the re-
mainder was taken in small sums at diff
ferent times.

SQUIRRELS in the Parks.

To the Editor of The Evening Star,
Cannot something be done to protect the
squirrels that have found their way into
the parks Of the city? For the past three
weeks gray squirrel has made his home
In Lincoln Park, and at the peril of his
life On Sunday he was SO indiscreet as to
venture across to the maple trees on I1th
street, and instantly a gang Of boys got
after HIM. For ten minutes stones were
thrown at him regardless of people pass
ing, and it is a wonder that no one was hit.
After chasing him from tree to tree for q
long time, the squirrel crossed the street
to the park, followed by a bowling. stone
throwing gang. making perfect bedlam.
He finally reached a tree, but even here he
was not safe. In the absence of the watch
man, stones were projected into the trees
until it was not safe to pass through the
park. Kill, kill, seemed to be the idea of
every one Of that gang Of boys. Not one of
them seemingly had any feeling Of admira-
tion for the graceful little creature who
had so mistakenly trdsted human beings
in the parks as friends II such boys cam
not be taught to protect the lives Of such
park pets, cannot some means be provided
by which they can be protected by police
men making a few arrests for missile
throwing? A fine or two might give some
respect for the life Of these innocent in
mates Of the parks.

Healthy Schoolma'am.
FOUND OUT HOW TO FEED HERSELF.

Many school teachers, at the end Of their years
work. feel thoroughly exhausted and out
physically and mentally. The demand upon the
nerves and brain OF teacher is unusual and un-
less they are well fed and fed upon properly Sc
lected food. 1t is natural that they should
down.
little woman teacher at Goblevile, Mich.
who has been teaching regularly for a number Of
years, has always found herself thoroughly ex-
hausted at the end Of the session. until within tae
last year she has made use OF Grape Nuts Food
with the result that she closed the year n ro-
bust. healthy, strong, vigorous woman, having
gained In weight from 90 pounds to 128; her
nerves strong, face bright and CHEEKY, and really
a wonder to all her friends who constantly COM
ment on her color and strength. She knows exact
ly to what the change is attributed, for in the
years past, living on ordinary food, she has al
most broken down before the school year closed
whereas since using Grape-Nuts this change has
been brought about; evidence prima facie Of the
value Of Grape-Nuts Food for rebuilding the brain
and nerve centers.
The name Of the teacher can be given By the
Postum Cereal Co., Ltd, Battle Creek Mich.
