HANNA GAN YOUCH FOR
MRS. CHADWIGE'S GEMS
Cleveland Woman Says So,
But Collector Takes Them.

NEW YORK, Oct. 14-"Senator Mar
Gus A. Hanna can prove that this neck
lace has been mine for seventeen years.
He has seen it many times"
Mrs. c. s Chadwick, Of Cleveland.
Ohio, was emphatic In saying this 70
Collector Nevada y. Stranahan when he
called upon her to turn over her Sc
eco diamond and ruby necklace Il the
customs authorities.
Prove it. then. retorted Mr.. Stran-
ahan. putting the necklace into his safe
where it Is now. awaiting the time when
the United States courts settle the case.
Senator Hanna IS expected to give the
necessary testimony for Mrs. Chadwick
and get her necklace back for her.
Though no fraud is alleged, the Ut
most secrecy has been maintained from
the day Mrs. Chadwick landed in New
York Yesterday Collector strauahan
wouldn't say q word about the case, and
his extra counsel. Col. Dudley F. Phelps,
formerly Of the legal department Of the
custom house, was equally mum So
we're Albert H. Atterbury and Barlow
s Weeks, Mrs Chadwfck's counsel
When Mrs Chadwick returned from
her European tour she admitted that she
had $4,000 worth OF unset diamonds
and other precious stones. and willing
" paid the duty on them She also
had her $4,000 necklace Of diamonds
and rubies, which she asserted she had
had reset on the other side As the
stones had been in this country. before
she didn't think it necessary to declare
them again.
But there are jea1ousies in CieveIand's
-Four Hundred" as well as in New
York's, and when some kind friend saw
Mrs Chadwick wearing tbs diamonds
and rubies in an entirely different set
ting the other day the authorities were
promptly informed.
Collector stranahan as promptly made
a demand upon Mrs. Chadwick for her
jewels, and they were turned over to
him yesterday. after legal advice.
! have had those stones for seven
teen years" declared Mrs. Chadwick.
and the only change in them in that
time has been that they are in a new
setting which I bought abroad. Il
never occurred to nc that there was any
need to pay duty On the same property
more than once just because I took
them out Of the country
Mrs. Chadwick's husband. one Of
Cleveland's fashionable physicians, is
i'll in Brussels. The law holds that
where the coreinuity OF the stones Is
not changed they may be reset abroad
without paying a second duty. But Col
Iector Stranahau insists that Mrs Chad
wick prove that the stones are the
same, and that is why she says she will
call Senator Hanna.
"AIl viii say" said Mr. Atter5ury,
is that there is foundation IN fact
for such a case. No fraul is alleged.
and Mrs. Chadwick is too we'll known
in Cleveland TO be even charged with
violation Of law. The matter is purely
technical

NATIONAL MUSEUM

Much interest has been aroused among
scientists over the Forthcoming report
of Prof. ". II. Holmes. curator for an
thropolOgy, who has just returned from
a trip 10 Kansas. where he made careful
researches in glacial deposits on the
banks OF the Mississippi River for a
human skeleton reported 10 have been
discovered there a short time age. Il IS
the popular belief now that the deposits
in which this human skeleton must have
lain Tor generations are 10000 years old.
If this is established satisfactorily. the
birth Of man viii be moved back q good
many years according to the idea OF a
great majority OF the people in the civil
lied world: His report at any rate viii

tiquity of man.

Current Political Gossip.
VIII Morgan Accept?

If J. Pierpont Morgan viii accept a
nomination for Vice President OF the
United States he can have it. At least.
that is the way all sorts and conditions
of men in Washington are talking about
him today. They don't assign him TO
any party. They think he belongs 10
all parties. He has helped the Presi-
dent settle the great anthracite coal
strike. and it appears that but for him
no settlement would have been effected
as the President wanted it. AS the pol
iticians see things. every man who par
ticipares in large public affairs-every
man who gets under the UmeUght-is Il
candidate for office. Mr.. Morgan has
participated conspicuously in settling
more public questions than any man Of
his day. but Mr. Morgan has not yet
asked for an Office Now the time is ripe
for him to ask his citizens for
their SURFACES. Neither OF the great
parties would give him the first place on
the ticket in 1904, but maybe either
OF them would be glad to have in the
second place on the ticket the power
and witChery Of his name. Ergo. as the
excited politicians in this region see It,
there viii now be a big scramble
among the party managers TO get Mr.
Morgan on their side. IN this event
presumably Mr. Morgan-s attitude would
be that OF the miller of ancient times
first come, first served Wherefore,
which party will win the race to nom
mate J. Pierpont Morgan for Vice PTesi-

''Take care of yourself" say our friends.
"rl try to-" we answer. We do take little
care, yet in spite of warm clothes, rubbers
and mackintoshes, an army of people were
bowled out by pneumonia and other lung
and chest diseases last winter. They
caught cold, neglected it, let it fix upon
them, were torn by coughs, choked by
infiammations and COMPOSITIONS, wasted by
fever, tired out by pain and then gave up
the fight. The hour you realize that you
have a cold on the chest, place Benson's
Porous Plaster where the pain or oppres-
sion is felt. II you think two are needed
mako it two. No harm if you were COW
cred with them. They act quickly and
prevent the engagement of blood in the
organs. In this way-with ordinary eau
ton as to exposure-you will break up the
cold and avoid serious sickness. No
other applications, or any other form of
treatment, will accomplish this as certainly
and speedily. Benson's Plasters have dis
tinct and positive action and are curative to
the highest degree. Use them with the same
confidence for coughs, muscular rheuma-
tism, the grip Cback and chest) and all sim
liar ailments. Women, who are chief suffer-
ers from cold weather complaints, should
keep these plasters always within reach.

prepay postage on any number ordered in
the United States on receipt of Csc. each.

Condolences of Dates.

Attention has often been called to
the curious fact of the date Sept. 3 fig
uring so largely in the history of Oliver
Cromwell. That very dominating man
was born on Sept 3, 1899; he won the
battle of Dunbar Sept. 3. 1850; that of
Worcester Sept. 3, 1861, and he died
Sept. 3, 1858. But we have lately come
across some condolences dates
which, SO far as we know, have not
been noticed before. The number SS
seems to have had fatal influence on
the Stuarts. Robert H., the first Stu
art king, died in 1888; James II. was
killed at the siege of Roxburghe Cas-
tie, 14SS; Mary, queen of Scots, was
beheaded in Fotheringay, 1888 new
Style; James VII. Oh. Of England)
was dethroned in 1858; Bonny Prince
Charlie died in Rome, 1888, and with
him died the last hopes of the jacob
ties.

Little Emerson-Mamma, find no
marginal note in calculation of this ex-
preston, which observe frequently to
occur in my volume of "Fairy Tale
Classics" with bated breath" What
is the proper Interpretation of the
phrase?
Mamma-'With bated BREATH" my
son, commonly occurs in fairy tales.
Your father often returns from pisca-
torial excursions with bated breath.
The phrase in such instances, however,
hss no significance as applying to the
bait employed to allure the fish, but is
merely an elastic term of dubious
meaning and suspicious origin, utilized,
as l have already intimated, simply be-
cause Of the sanction which it has gain
ed by customary usage in fairy tales
generally. Do you comprehend, Elmer
