Albert Knapp.
The confession clears up the mys-
terry of at least one death-that of Jen-
ME Corners Knapp, Knapp's second
wife. Her body was found in the slug
gish waters of canal near Cincinnati
Bruises were discovered on the head.
but an investigation led to no definite
conclusion concerning the manner of
death. -
The most recent of the murders to
which Knapp has confessed-that of
his third wife, Annie Goddard Knapp
of Hamilton-led to his arrest at the
home of his fourth bride in Indianap-
oils
After his confession Knapp admitted
that he had repeatedly assaulted wo-
men. He said: Il met the Littleman
child in the lumber yard and cholSed
her to death when she made an out
crv.
Il went into the room with the Eek
ert girl, sat down with her She cried

| 1t is very evident that the announce
| ment that Robert E. Peary would not
! again seek to penetrate the frozen
North. made upon his recent return
! from his four years expedition, was
without his authority, or else the in
trepid explorer has changed his mind.
In recent interviews he has declared
! that he is ready for another dash
toward the pole and that with finan-
cial backing to the extent of $150,000 to
5000, 900 for his expedition he has COM
long sought goal of Arctic explorers.
His enthusiasm and energy are con-
tagious, and It is very likely that the
Peary Arctic club of New York VIII
be able to fit out another expedition
with him at it's head i'll the spring.
There is enough patriotic pride in
every American to want our flag the
first one at the pole. If any American
can carry it there, he is Robert e.
Peary. His ability and experience
make him the man for the work and
his methods are the most practical
and successful yet tried.
1t is said that the Peary club is
negotiating with the Italian govern
ment relative to the Arctic exploration
vessel of the Duke d'Arbruzzi, the
III a
nearer the pole than Nansens ship, the
Fran MIR. Peary was in Boston, last
week. where he Joined the Bowdoin
Alumni of that city at their annual
dinner. In an interview while there
he said: ''Of course it is my earnest de-
sire to make another attempt to reach
the North pole. 1t islmy ambition to
fly the American flag at the pole. l
would start for the North if l had the
proper backing. Some time ago l SAID
100000 would fit out an expedition, but
/ now think that $500, or at least
$150,O00, is necessary. The Stellar
Polare is one of the few ships suitable
for an Arctic exploration. She was
originally a Norwegian whaler, and is
500ton vessel, which l consider the
minimum size for an Arctic. expedition.
She was beached for some time, and l
do not know what her present condi-
ton is. AS president of the American
Geographical Society l am keeping
posted on all matters pertaining to
Arctic explorations, and of course am
interested in any vessel that may be
available for the purpose If the club
finds the money | will be ready to start
again for the North, when l go l shall
go by the American route @

In every sense the terrible epidemic
of typhoid fever which is sweeping the
city of Ithaca, New York, is a most un-
fortunate and serious thing for Cornell
University. Not only are scores of the
students sick at the university infirn-
airy or at their homes, but no fewer
than 16 deaths have already occurred
among their number and this total
seems certain to be largely increased.
The university will suffer d sever blow
not only in this great loss of life and
in the general interruption of study
for hundreds of students, but also in
the matter of future attendance. 1t is
a terrible price to pay for a contami-
mated water supply.

For many years New Jersey has had
the anomalous custom of having men
who We're not lawyers on its highest
legal tribunal. The court of errors and
appeals mas had six special judges
ordinarily known as LAY judges.
They were to be appointed. apparently,
to furnish horse sense instead OF law.
1t was a curious survival in New Jer-
sey practice of the English idea of The
squire as fountain of justice. For
many years the habit was to name
practical men of affairs builders,
physicians, butchers, brewers-to sit
beside the most learned judges OF New
Jersey and have an equal voice with
them in deciding the most intricate
cases III the court of last resort. ~
late. however, the practice has been
to appoint trained lawyers, even as Inc
lay judges. Last week, Governor
Murphy appointed lawyer TO sue
teed a Jolly brewer who has been
wearing. the ermine for o term OF years,
and the whole court is now made up OF
trained lawyers.

FALL RIVER COAL CLUB
Claims to Have Perfect Right to Keep
Price of Coal Up.

Fall River, Mass, Feb. 26.-Witnesses
who testified before the legislative coal
investigating committee here, today,
admitted that a coal club had been
formed TO regulate prices and condi-
tons in this city. Even after the club
had disbanded, after it had outlived
it's usefulness meetings were held and
the price of coal fixed. One of the wit :
nesses justified the raise in the price of
coal to SIS by the statement that the
dealers desired to protect the people
against still greater need by placing the
price at such a figure where pur-
chases would be made in small guam
titles.
The proposition of Mayor Crime that
each of the dealers set aside a certain
amount of coal to be sold to the classes,
was not acted upon. this witness said
because the dealers did not believe it
a fair one.
They claimed that their coal was
worth the market price, or whatever
1t would cost them to replace, whether
it be $40 or $780," he haid. 80
