This Is the Detectives Theory-The
Story Of a ShopIIfter.

NEW YORK, March THE. man who
last Sunday night accompanied Nellie
Fletcher to the boarding house of Mrs.
Farrell in West Thirty-seVenth street,
where she was found dead on Thursday,
was arrested tonight The police say
that he is a well known shoplifter known
as Edward Stewart. Stewart, the police
say, has made a statement that ne met
the woman in saloon on Sunday night
and that she told him that she had run
away from her home in New Haven with
a Yale student and had gone to Chi
cago. She was then, she said, on her
way to New Haven. but wished to re-
main few days in New York and wanted
to find a boarding house. Stewart, he
says, recommended Mrs Farrells house.
where he left her after she had engaged
a room for q week.
Capt. Langon, chief Of the detective
bureau, said tonight that 1t was his
opinion that the woman had died from
the effects of knockout drops. He
thought she had been robbed as no
money was found in the room, and If
she had contemplated a trip to New
Haven she would have had enough money
to buy her ticket.

Lost In the Grass.

There is surely no country hall a
world away in which the Occidental
traveller expects so much delight and
so little danger as in Japan. Yet Mr..
Ernest Foxwcll has recently related a
tale OF terrible adventure experienced
in Japan by an Englishwoman but a
few days after her arrival. She was
staying at little country village among
the hills and had gone out III the morn
ing to gather flowers. The path ran
across the uplands, where there is a
wild and lonely stretch of country cX-
tending for several miles, and the
beauty of some wild flowers growing
in the tall grass led her TO leave the
trail unthinkingly and press farther and
farther into the waving tangle. ShG

YOU do at the beginning OF an earth

moment, and the possibilities came like

But pushing through this tall, tough
grass is very tiring work, even II you

OF you from the feeling that every step
is probably burying you deeper. 1t was
like being drowned" 1t was not until
sunset, after a whole day in the bla2-
ing sun, without food or water, con
stantly wandering, constantly pushing
and tearing at stems so stiff and ser
rated that they quickly make the hands
bleed, that she walked suddenly out
on to open ground and fell ialntlnG III
a heap. When she recovered the stars
were shining and she was alone on an
unknown mountain side. She slept

placed in the crotched top of pine
tree growing on point of land jut'

of huge bowl, probably four feet
ACROSS and yard high, and weighs
400 pounds. 1t is composed chiefly
Of goodsized sticks and among the
other materials are pieces of broken
oars and wrecked boats, tishnets,
skeletons of quail, fishbones and
long strand of barbed wire. The
huge nest also has number Of sub

the nests of three pair Of purple
