to a chill.
The trains from Brighton to London on
Sunday evenings are always crowded,
mainly by business people compelled to
return to town in readiness for the toll Of
the coming week. Weekend trippers and
day excursionists fill the compartments to
overlooking, whether it be chilly spring or
blazing summer. for Brighton is ever pop

abled to run down without fatigue and
get cheap health-giving sea breeze for
a few hours after the busy turmoil of the

On this Sunday night it was no excep-
ton. The flrst-class compartment was
crowded, mostly, be it said by third ella So
passengers who had tipped the guard
and when he had started I noticed in the
far corner opposite me a pale-faced young
girl of about 20 or so, plainly dressed in

carriage. She was not good looking, in

The other passengers, two Of whom were

contempt.

Her statement startled me- I had no

AS far. as had been able to judge, it
seemed very much as though she had
every desire to regain her freedom from a
matrimonial bond that CALLED her. That

TALKS OF BILLIONS
But Aged inventor Is Arrested
for Board Bill.

NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-Cornelius 8. de
La Vergne, aged seventy-five who
talks hopefully of an invention he
claims to have perfected for a secret
process to manufacture lard, butter,
oils and fatty substances, has been ar
raigned before police magistrate on
the charge of falling to pay board bill
amounting to $489. The defendant is
said to have incorporated under the
laws of South Dakota, the Northwest
ern Industrial company, with capital
OF $9OO,000,O00 to take up his invention.
Of this amount, it is averred, the in
ventor set aside $90,000.000 for the ben
eft Of the employees Of the company.
They were to have libraries and
homes built for them and a generous
amount to take care of them when
disabled by accident or sickness.
He has been working on the scheme
Of this company since 1896 and says
that he had retained prominent law
firm here to draw up the necessary
papers by which his valuable patent
could be conveyed to the industrial
company.
After hearing the complaint Magis-
trate Ommen held De La Vergne in
custody of his counsel for further hear
ing.
William S. Coursey, formerly private
secretary to Police Commissioner
Greene, says he was engaged by De
La Vergne last August to act as his
secretary. The salary was large and
he was to have goodly block of stock
in the new company, but alleges that
up to date he has received $3.50 In
cash.

WHITE HOUSE IS STILL
MECCA FOR CRANKS

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 3.-Lew-
is Bronstein, tailor of Brooklyn, N.
Y, came here today to see the presi-
dent, and is being detained at police
headquarters, pending an official ex-
animation into his sanity. He called
at the residence Of Rabbi Gulius T.
Loeb, where he made statements in
connection with the object of his visit
which caused the rabbi to turn him
over to the police. When searched a
loaded revolver and several loose cart
ridges were found on him. Bronstein
said that his nephew had tried to kill
him. His object in wishing to see the
president was to ask him to use his
influence in preventing any further at
tempts on his life. Bronstein's rela-
tives have been communicated with.
