Senator McComas, of Maryland, who
was for years a member of the District

IN the law school of Georgetown univer-
slty. Sometimes the senator, while de-
Hverlng lecture, is overcome by an i'm
pulse to tell of his personal experiences,
which are generally entirely foreign to
the subject matter The other night he
happened to remark that the world was
a very small place after ALL
was over in London last summer, :
continued the senator, ''and was pass
ing along the Strand, when 1 saw coming
toward me a familiar figure. Who should
1t turn out to be but old Bill Smith, my

Was in the City on a visit to His
Mother, Who Is UNDER
going an Opera

Charles Swenson, of Fergus Falls Is
missing. Last Monday evening at $50
the young man left the residence of w
K. Morrison, at 15O6 Harmon place. where
he had been staying during his visit in
this city, intending to cross the river and
go to his room at the corner of Fifteenth
avenue and Seventh street southeast.
Since then nothing has been seen or heard
of him.
At the time of his leaving the young
man had in his possession between 5000
and $500 in currency. 1t Is known that
East side on foot, and that the route
with which he was most familiar is by
way of the Tenth avenue bridge.
1t is believed by the young man
friends that he was knocked down ard
robbed under the railroad Viaduct Which
and that his body was afterwards carried
to the bridge and thrown into the MiSSlS
Sippi 100 feet below.
SwenSon came to Minneapolis from Fer
gus Falls last week. The purpose of his
visit was to see his mother through an
operation which she IS now undergoing
at st. Barnabas' hospital, and to have an
operation for cataract performed on his
eye. During his stay here he has been
the guest of his sister and aunt at MI.
MCrsCnS home, the TWO women being
employed there as dOmestics. For the
purpose of his trip he brought with him
about $500 and this money he carried on
his person.
SwensOn is a carpenter by trade and
man of temperate and frugal habits. lie
