TWO DEATHS FOLLOW
SONS DISOBEDIENCE
Boy Falls From Roof and Father
Leaps After
Him.

New York, Oct. 31.-DisObedience of
his father has led to the death of Ed
ward Acton, years old, and the fatal
injury of the parent. Young Acton was
flying a kite from the roof of their
home in Brooklyn. His father ordered
him down and forbade the boy his dan
gerOus pastime. A few hours later Ac-
ton found Edward on the roof again
and gave chase. The land ran along
the edege, missed his footing, and fell
to the yard, a distance of about thirty
feet.
Seeing his son falling and apparently
with an idea that he must try to save
him at any cost, Acton jumped into
space. He landed nearly ten feet be
yOnd his unconscious boy. Crippled and
almost dead from the shock of his fall.
the father dragged himself to the side
of his son. and when an ambulance ar
rived had clasped the boy in his arms.
Not until the hospital was reached
would the father allow the boy to be
taken from him. Edward died two
hours later and the father is not eX-
pected to recover.

SAYS ATHLETICS
LEAD TO DISHONESTY
Eastern Educator Makes Statement
in Address at
Chicago.

Chicago, Oct 31.-Conditions mimi
cal to the growth of American manli-
ness, both in the "decadence of home
lief and in athletics, were discussed by
Alfred L. Stearns. principal of Phillips
academy, Andover, Mass, in an ad-
dress delivered at the educational con-
ference in session here. Steans said
of school and college athletics:
"Sly and underhand practices are en-
couraged just so far as detection does
not ensue. To the average school boy
the college athlete is hero, and this
man, regret to say, often spends his
time in teaching fhis deceit to lads of
the preparatory schools. I have seen
many an athletic coach devOtfng hours
to teaching young followers how they
may cleverly disobey rules of the game
without risk of detection. L
have heard boys complain that they
were advised that IL little profanity
would tend to discOncert their oppo-
nentS."

BUCKET BRIGADE DOES
NOT SAVE INDIANA TOWN

Urbana Ind, Oct. 31.-Fire broke
ont on the north side of Main street,
in this place, and almost completely
wiped out the business portion of the
town. The fire started in the meat
market of o. \. TomlinsOn, and spread
rapidly. Other places burned were
those of +. JOY, meat market: II. A.
Smith, photographer; II. +. Kinney,
implement store; NJ. L. Renter, drug
store, and doctors office, and the Bell
Telephone company.
All that remains in the business part
of the town is the postofiice, a drug
store and a hardware store. The build
ings were burned to the ground, de-
spite the effort of the hard fighting
bucket brigade. Nearly every man in
town helped fight the fire, which had
gained much headway before discov-
cred. The loss will probably reach
$4,000, with only $1,000 insurance.
The fire is believed to have been of
mcendiary origin.

Continuance of
Prosperity.

New York, Oct. 31.-R. q. Dun &

today: Industrial activity has increased
somewhat, many plants resuming and
others preparing to reopen on Monday.
Several pending labor controversies
have reached amicable adjustment,
adding to the aggregate of wage earn
ers employed. On the other hand
strikes are ordered and some mills
will be closed by lack of new business,
while the struggle for control of the
copper properties has thrown thou
sands out of work.
While there is evidence of a setback
in the steel industry, and some hesita.
ton in textiles at the east. the gener-
al tenor of these reports is encOurag-
ing for continuance of prosperity.
particularly in the sections where agri-
culture is the chief occupation. Collec-
tiOns are causing some uneasiness, and
financial conditions are unsettled. Mer-
chandise is freely distributed. For the

Henrietta Adams, OF Caseville, Mich,
has been given verdict for $4,000
against Robert Stuart Baker, Il we'll
known young man of this city, for
breach of promise. The trial has been
one of the most sensational in the his
tory of western Michigan. The wooing

RAG to the young woman began when

Several hundred letters written to
Miss Adams by Baker were read in
court and numbet from the young

duced as evidence. Many of Bakers
letters were sensational. The jury de-
cided that Baker fraudulently made u
contract of marriage with the intention
of seduction. The testimony was very
salacious.
