Gabriel did not know, as the older servants of the David Ellery house. hold knew, that young Worthington was not in favor with Mrs. Ellery.
 Jane, who had been reading to her father, let fall the book into her lap at his announcement of Worth ington's arrival, while Mrs. Ellerv dropped her embroidery. An in stant's uneasy silence pervaded the apartment.
 ''The insolencei" said Mrs. Ellery at last. "How dare he come here in this high-handed manner? And how has he escaped the British? When last we knew of him, he was their captive, only saved by Col. Besse- mer's great clemency from being a corpse. No doubt he is now fugi- tive, fleeing from them, and relies to hide him here. Was there ever such audactiy? Gabriel, tell the man to be gone; that under no considera- tion will Miss Jane see him."
 Up rose Jane, and laid her book upon the nearby table with an em- phatic slap. "You must permit me,'' she said, looking coldly at her step mother and for once blind to the nervous frown which had gathered upon her fathers brow and to the wistful look which ever came into his eyes at sign of disagreement be- tween her and his wife, ''you must permit me to deal with my visitors as see fit. Gabriel, you may go."
 She swept from the room, out into the hall, and halfway down the stairs; and then she stopped stopped to collect her thoughts; to still the futter of her heart; to plan her mode of procedure.
 Godfrey, sitting upon the portico, gazing into the peaceful night, was thinking of the beauty of the sur roundings; of the luxuriousness of Jane's home. It required no little courage, no small amount of self confidence, to ask her to leave it for him; and that she could think enough of him to do it--ah, that was the wonderful thing

ROB JEWELRY STORE
Burglars Loot East Seventh St.
Shop In Early Evening.

Abe Cohen's jewelry store, 81 East
Seventh street, was robbed in a daring
manner last evening at 9:45 by thieves
VINO forced an entrance by breaking
a heavy wooden bar which secured the
rear door. The robbers extinguished
the light in the back of the store and
then proceeded to rifle the Shelves
showcases and windows
The thieves We're noticed by a Young
man passing in front of the store when
they were moving about within. One
man was standing in the window pick
lpg up the watches which were on dis
play while others were engaged in the
back of the place
What attracted the attention of the
young man was the absence of light
In the rear He hurried to the corner
OF Seventh and Minnesota streets
where he met Patrolman Beaubean,
who was just returning from a tour
of the block opposite that In which
Cchcn'S store is located.
Patrolman Beaubean hurried to the
front door of the store, but found it
locked and then he rushed around to
the rear, where he found the door clos
ed. 1t yielded to his touch, however,
the robbers in their fight having mere
ly pulled it shut. The wooden bar
which had secured the door on the in
side was broken.
The thieves, evidently aware of their
discovery, had run away before the of
ffcer arrived. In the alley were found
twelve watches which had been dropped
by the men In their flight. Detectives
were Immediately assigned on the case.
The robbery occurred when the street
was quite crowded and the men were
able to escape unnoticed. 1t is thought
that they carried their plumber away in
& sack.
An examination of the stock last
night showed that eighty-five watches,
twelve pairs of opera glasses and sew
eral other articles were missing.
Abe Cohen, when seen at his home,
666 Wabasha street last night said
that his loss, as far as he knew,
would amount to about $3.50. The
watches were valued at from 81 to
$150, being of a cheap variety. All
of the expensive jewelry had been Sc
cured in the safe.

DROPS DEAD BESIDE
CASKET OF BROTHER
Oldest Letter Carrier in New York Dies
From Broken Heart.

NEW YORK, Oct. Robinson
Chase Hull, the oldest letter carrier in
New York, and possibly in the country,
has fallen dead while standing beside
the coffin containing the body of his
brother, William. at the latter's home
in Brooklyn. The doctors say he died
from a broken heart
: William Hull was eightytwo years
old and a retired merchant. His broth
er, Johnson. was two years younger,
and the two had been inseparable dur
ing their long span Of life. Despite
his years, Johnson was accounted one
of the best letter carriers In the serv-
ice, into which he celebrated recently
the forty-f1fth anniversary of his en-
try.
He was fond of declaring he would
live score of years more. and he often
put on the gloves for boxing bout
with the younger men in the Brooklyn
postoffice.
The death of his brother was a hard
blow and he grieved deeply over his
loss. At the close of the funeral serV-
ices he arose from his chair beside the
coffin and, speaking in a low voice,
babe farewell to his brother. You
were first to CO." he said; my sum,
mons cannot come too SOON" The old
mans voice broke, he threw his hands
up and sank to the floor, dead.

California.

The great prosperity of this land Of OPP
portunity has recently been marked by a
distinguished visitor. Hon. Hamilton Fish,
assistant United States treasurer. Mr..
Fish saw nothing that impressed him more
than the enormous business being done
on the Pacific coast, the apparent per-
manency of its prosperity and the need
of more workers.
The basis of this prosperity is first of
all climate, then electrical energy and
fuel oil for manufacturers and finally ir-
rigation. Given water to turn on at will,
in a country so full of sunshine, and
growth is continuous. Something is grow

DESERTED WOMAN
FINDS HER CHILD
Runaway Husband Had Placed
1t in a Hospital, Where 1t Is
Very Ill.

Arrested in st. Paul for clipping with
the wife of a friend, released by con-
sent of the deserted husband, George
Sturgeon, who took with him one of
his own children when a few weeks
ago he left his wife to go with Mrs.
Sanford, has again disappeared and
deserted his wife and child in Mime
apolis.
The baby. sought by Mrs. Sturgeon,
who following her clipping husband,
was left by Sturgeon at st. Barnabas
hospital, Minneapolis, where it was
located last week by Detective Fraser.
The baby is in serious condition, suf-
fering from pneumonia, supposed to
have been caused by exposure, and Mrs.
Sturgeon is stopping with friends in
this city at 4411a Aurora avenue,
anxiously awaiting the recovery of her
child.
Sturgeon and Mrs Sanford were ar
rested by Detective Fraser, Saturday,
Sept. 81, on complaint of George San
ford, who had traced his wife and
Sturgeon to this city, where he alleged
Surgeons child. The pair were
charged with disorderly conduct, and
when arraigned in police court the fol-
lowing Monday, Sanford relented and
on his motion fine was imposed upon
Sturgeon and Mrs. Sanford, which he
helped to pay
Whether Sanford and his wife fixed
up their trouble is not known, but
Sturgeon took the child to Minneapolis,
where he placed it in the hospital, and
then left for parts unknown.
Mrs. Sturgeon, when she heard Of
her husbands arrest with Mrs. San
ford, was at Princeton, Mo-, with three
small children. She came Immediately
to st. Paul, in the hope of recovering
the baby which Sturgeon had taken
away. She arrived too late, however,
for he had already disappeared with
the child. Mrs. Sturgeon appealed to
the police and Detective Fraser began
a search. He finally found the child in
Minneapolis, where it was in the hos
pital in serious condition.
Sturgeon and Mrs. Sanford disap-
peared two months ago from Hobart,
Okla, where they had been residing.
Sturgeon left home, informing his wife
that he intended making a visit in
Canada, and took with him $110. About
the same time Mrs. Sanford disap-
pear and took with her a sum of
money. The pair were located in st.
Paul and their arrest followed. San
ford is a comedian, playing in variety
houses, and Sturgeon has been pro-
moter for mining company.

BOARD COMPUTES
SENTENCES OF THREE
Workof Session Now Completed
Except for Cases Taken I'm
der Amusement.

No action was taken by the board of
pardons yesterday on the case of Frank
H Hamilton, and members of the board
have not intimated when decisive ac-
ton will be taken. AS it now stands
the matter is still under Amusement,
and it is not known whether the delay
IS due to divergence of sentiment
among the three state officers who con-
stitute the board or to a desire on their
part to inform themselves more fully
before coming to a decision.
The board met yesterday morning
in executive session and it is under
stood that the Hamilton case was one
of the chief topics Of discussion.
Hamilton was convicted of the kill
ing of Leonard Day, who was stabbed
in the billiard room of the West hotel,
Minneapolis, one night in November,
1900, and was committed Feb. 20, 1901,
to the penitentiary for term of seven
years. Under the law and the rules of
the prison he would be eligible to
parole about July next.
The application of n. w. King, the
former Minneapolis detective, was
denied by the board. King was one of
the city detectives under the Ames ad-
ministration and was convicted as an
accessory to a felony. He was commit
ted July 1, 1902 for term of three
years.
Commutes Sentences of Three.
from Pleasant Hill, Winona county,
whose case was reviewed in I h e
Glob e yesterday, was granted COM
mutation of sentence from fifteen years
and four months to twelve years, which
makes him now eligible to parole, as
he has served seven years.
The sentence of Joseph Landry, sent
from Crow Wing county, March Is,
1899, to serve ten years for robbery in
the second degree, was committed to
eight years, which will permit of his
parole.
In the case of Louis F. Hegman,
sentenced from HennepIn county, April
6, 1903, to the Minneapolis workhouse
for one year, the board committed the
sentence to six months, which is in
effect a pardon. Hegman was con-
victed of counterfeiting a trade mark.
The applications of the following
were denied:
George Blair, from st. Louis county,
March 10, 1908, to the reformatory, for
forgery in the second degree.
William Early, from Hennepin coun-
ty, Jan. 16, 1908, to the penitentiary for
grand larceny in the second degree. =.
Charles Morgan, from St Louis
county, March 6, 1902, to state prison
for four years for forgery in the Sec
ond degree.
Besides the Hamilton case the board
still has under advisement the applica-
ton of William FitZsimmons, sent from
Pine county Sept. Z, 1895, TO serve
life sentence for murder in the first de-
gree. FitZSimmonS was convicted on
his own plea of guilty. The killing was
the outcome of a dog fight, in which
Fitzsimmons' dog was victorious. He
was attacked by the owner of the de-
feated dog and in the row killed his
assailant.
The work of the board at this ses-
sion is completed except the cases
taken under Amusement.

NOT TO BE BISHOP
OF WASHINGTON
Archbishop Ireland Denies Rumor
That Seems to Have No Basis.

Special to The Globe.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 10
Archbishop Ireland today laughingly
denied the rumor that he was to be
made bishop of Washington. Under
the discipline of the Roman Catholic
church this would be impossible, as
Archbishop Ireland could not divest
himself of his archepiscopal dignity
any more than he could be deposed
from his Office. Washington will not
be separated from the archdiocese of
Baltimore while Cardinal Gibbons
lives. The rumor that Mgr. Falconio
will be recalled is without foundation.
Mgr. Falconio will serve through the
usual routine of a delegate and then
will be recalled to Rome.
