TWO New Workers Demonstrate That At

TWO New Workers Demonstrate That At
Iantic City Is a Winter Resort.
To win a champagne supper, a wager
of $500 and to show that one could battle
at Atlantic City at all times of the year,
as they had boldly asserted to some of
their friends in a Philadelphia hotel, Will
liam Peisinger, of the firm of J. a. Kra-
mer & Co., and S. E.. Dickson, of the KEEL
lar JeWelry Manufacturing company, both
OF New York City, donned their bathing
suits here yesterday and took a dip in
the surf off kentucky avenue.
1t was the coolest day of the year in
this city, and the wind was blowing q
gale from the north. The men went into
Shourd's store on the board walk, and
there, where it was warm, put on their
bathing suits. In a moment they were
out across the board walk and down on
the sand. Waiting just long enough for
they dashed into the surf, where they re-
NAMED for about five minutes Then they
came out, stood for their pictures again,
and made a dash for the warm room,
where they received a good. brisk rub
bling with a coarse towel and a final rub
with alcohol.
Mr.. Dickson was asked how the bathing
suited him at this time of year, and he
declared that it was all right, so long as
he remained under the water. He said
that it did not seem much colder than it
was in the summer. but he said when he
came out, and the cold wind struck him.
he was inclined to believe that he would
become an iceberg before he could reach
the room where he had left his clothing.
In explaining the reason for this dip.
Mr.. Peisinger said they and a number of
their friends were gathered in a Philadel-
phia hotel discussing the merits of At
lantie City as a winter resort. Some of
the men announced that they were going
to Florida, and he and Mr.. Dickson said
they We're coming to Atlantic City. why,
you can battle there all the year round, "
Mr.. Dickson said, n that was the foun-
dation for the wager. Both the men are
STAYING at one of the beach front hotels,
and declare that they felt fine after their
| dip. Neither has suffered any i'll effects
from his chilly dip.-NeW York Tribune.

JOHN W. GATES is
VICTIM OF LIBEL
Somebody Starts a Rumor
That He Has Quit Deal
ing in Stocks.

From La Sale street to Wall street, over
the stubble fields and snow draped hills
that stretch between. floats a loud horse
laugh at the story that job w. Gates
has resolved to give up stock speculation.
Has the leopard found a bleach for
spots?
In sudden generosity and virtue, so the
tale is wired. Mr.. Gates gave his son,
Charles, a Christmas present of 81, 600, 900
and decided to quit the business.
To escape temptation he and Charles
sped to Palm Beach, Fla. No sooner had
they left when the firm of Harris, Gates
& Co. leased a line to that resort.
The wire costs $32, 600 and the Palm
Beach season will enc March Is. Gates
has given up speculation, of course.
But, say those who believe the story, a
man must have diversion. and what more
interesting than a study of the tape wen
to one who has withdrawn from it's Sc
auctions? 1t is always good reading to
the contemplative mind.
In Chicago they say that a half dozen
slot machines have been installed in the
Palm Beach hotel for Mr.. Gates enter
tainment when the market is closed
and hours drag. Notwithstanding his
handsome gift to his son there is still left
a million or SO with which to tantalize
Fortune.
Once upon q time Mr.. Gates took a party
Of ~Chicagoans on a trip to California,
chiefly for the purpose Of watching the
sun duck into the Pacific from Coronado
Beach. 1t was a magnificent sunset and
the party enjoyed it so much that Mr..
Gates absence was not noticed until the
crimson orb had sunk behind the waters.
Then they started to look for the great
manipulation. He was on the other side
of the hotel porch slipping nickels into a
slot machine and trying to win $2.-Phil-
adelphia North American.

A MIlIionaire's Sound Advice.

1t was a pretty as well as an appro-
pirate compliment which a wealthy phil
anthropist in Central New York paid the
other, a to Mr.. George w. Perkins, the
Wei known ~financier. when he caused to
have printed upon a thousand rulers civ
en- away to school children the following
quotation from Mr.. Perkins: Too many
young men in this country don't want to
work hard. They prefer to take things
easy, stay up late at night and lie abed
too long in the morning. They never can
may change, but the old rule remains the
same. that there is no success without
keeping everlastingly at it, Wiser words
TO Keep before the eyes of American bows
and girls could hardly be found Than
these. 1t will be remembered that Mr..
Perkins mas come UP to his present high
and commanding position in the CONNER

lowest positions in the ranks. He was
once an office boy to a emb of the
firm of ]. Pierpont Morgan.

masters report, Judge Chytraus placed
Receiver F. P. Blackman in control of
the property. Williams also had Mrs.
Taylor arrested upon charges of lar
ceny. These charges were dismissed a
few days ago in Justice Martins court.
Mrs. Taylor in the meantime went
before Judge Chytraus and had Sandy
Bynum placed in charge of the prop
erty as joint receiver with Blackman.
She also went before Justice Everett
and had Williams arrested on a charge
of perjury, alleged to have been COM
mitted in preferring the larceny
charge against her.
Attorney Everett, who represents
Mrs. Taylor, said yesterday that he
would soon nave the persons who
swore that Mrs. Taylor was not mar
ried to Thornton Taylor before Judge
Chytraus on perjury charges. He ex-
hibited a marriage certificate showing
that Thornton Taylor and Lorena Pur-
nell, now Mrs. Taylor, were married by

OPPOSES LAND-LEAsING BILL.
Gov. Mickey, of Nebraska, Says Com
mission Should Be Appointed.

LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. %. = Gov.
Mickey, in a message to both branches
Of the legislature today, took a decid-
ed stand against the Dietrich land
leasing bill, introduced by the senior
Nebraska senator in congress, giving to
each person the privilege of leasing
twenty sections of land fer grazing
purposes. He said:
ut gives too much land to each per-
son, and it does not fix any definite
price to be paid for the use of the
land. 1 am in favor of cutting down
the amount to be allowed each indi-
vidual in the interest of the home
steader. l know that many objections
are mad to the measure by Western
ranchmen on the ground that twenty
sections is not enough, but l think that
the small grower ought to have a
chance"
Gov. Mickey said he thought the
views of the president ought to be re-
garded and a commission appointed to
examine the whole question in regard
to the leasing of the public domain~With
a view to recommending legislation.

CHICAGO, Jan. 23.-Two receivers.
appointed by Judge Chytraus upon pc
titions of litigants bitterly opposed to
each other, are running a saloon,
vaudeville show and dance hall at
2S12 State street. The ownership of
the place is in question, and a lively
row, into which the colored population
along State street has been drawn, is
on in earnest. The colored citizens
have taken sides, II in the meantime
the saloon, dance hall and vaudeville
show is piling up profits under the di-
rectiOn of Receivers T. p. Blackman
n Sandy Bynun.
Mrs. Leona Taylor and Gabriel K.
Williams, colored. are the litigants.
The saloon property was once owned
by Williams and Thornton Taylor,
husband Of the woman now opposing
Williams. Taylor was shot and killed
last Thanksgiving day at the home of
Dora Parker, 2813 Dearborn street, by
James Johnson.
Since that date Williams and Mrs.
Leona Taylor have fought bitterly for
the possession of the saloon property.
Mrs. Taylor says that Williams dis
solved partnership with her husband
several weeks before his death, and
that he left the place and did not APP
pear there until after Taylor was kill
ed. She asserts that he is trying to
gain possession of the property with
out any legal claim.
On the other hand, Williams claims
that Mrs. Taylor is not the widow of
Thornton Taylor, and that she is seek
ing the property with no legal. basis
for her claim. Both nave gone into
the courts with their contentious, and
threats against each other are of daily
~utterance.
Williams had the first say He went
before Master in Chancery Granville

who swore that Mrs. Taylor was not
married to Thornton Taylor, and had
no claim on his estate. as represented

KILLS YOUNG WOMAN,
CUTS HIS OWN r
Desperate Deed of a Chicago Carpen-
ter, Who Will Die.

CHICAGO, Jan. 23.-Mrs. Stella
Wright, a young woman acting as
housekeeper for William F. Lewis, a
carpenter, living at 4449 State street,
was killed by Lewis today. The crime,
the cause of which is not known, was
committed with q Ratchet, the head of
the woman being cut open. AS soon
as the killing was reported to the po-
lice they commenced a search for
Lewis, who had disappeared.
No trace was found of him until to-
night when he appeared at his home,
where three officers were on guard.
He was placed under arrest after a
desperate fight. While on the way to
the police station he requested one of
the officers who was holding his hand
to loosen his grasp a little and as soon
as the officer complied Lewis snatched
a razor from his pocket and cut his
own throat. At midnight he was alive,
but there is 40 chance Of his recovery.
Both before and after cutting his
throat he admitted that he had killed
the woman, and said that he had left
letters which would give his reasons
for the crime.

TO IMPEAcH JUDGE HARVEY.
Necessary.Papers Filed in the Montana
House of Representatives.

HELENA, Mont, Jan. 23.-Papers in
Impeachment proceedings were filed in
the Montana house today against Judge
Harvey. The purpose is the investi-
cation of bribery made in certain Aft
davits last summer, when it was
charged that Judge Harvey was influ-
enced in the Minnie Healy mining case.
Title to the mine is in controversy
between Aug. HeinZe and the Amalga-
mated Copper company. Harvey has
instituted proceedings looking to the
disbarment of A. ]. Shores, chief coun-
sci for the Amalganated Copper COM
pany, claiming that Shores induced
Charles w. Clark, son of Senator w.
A. Clark to try and bride him for
$3.50, 600 to decide the case against
Heinze.
The resolution for impeachment was
introduced by MI. Conner, the Repuh-
lican leader, charging that Harvey was
guilty of malfeasance in office because
of his alleged immoral conduct with
Mrs. Ada H. Bracket and other alleged
discriminating evidence induced at the
Shores disbarment hearing. Conner
moved hat the resolution be referred
to the judiciary committee. Lynch, Of
Butte. moved as a substitute that it
be laid on the table. This substitute
was defeated by a vote Of SO to %, and
the original motion passed.

EX MAYOR kMES
is A DYING MAN
Makes Pitiful Plea to Be
Taken Back to
Minneapolis.

A. A. Ames, ex-mayor of Minneap,
,lis, is a dying man.
His brain is weakened and his physi-
cal powers are exhausted. He looks
death in the face without fear or favor.
He hopes for nothing in his world and
has turned his face toward the next.
But DR.. Ames is a Minneapolis man
and whatever his errors of administra-
tive policy he feels strong desire to end
his days in the community which is
familiar with his merits as we'll as his
dement's.
DR.. Ames is at Hancock, N. H, liv-
ing on a farm owned by his wife's
brother, who is a minister of the Cos
pei. According to the statement of a
close friend of the doctor in Mime
apolis he could not raise $500 on all
his earthly possessions. With him it
is not a question of evading confne-
ment in the penitentiary, but of ind
ing a familiar corner in which to die
in peace.
Y. p. Roberts. of Minneapolis, who
has been trying to negotiate for the
return Of Dr.. Ames, received a letter
from Mrs. Ames. wife of the doctor,
yesterday. He Immediately took the
letter to ". H. Johnson, one of the
bondsmen, and asked Mr.. Johnson il
some arrangement could not be made
whereby Dr.. Ames could return to Min
neapolis with the assurance that he
would not be cast into confinement.
The last words that DR.. Ames said to
Mr.. Roberts when he left him lying in
the humble room of the little farm
house were:
For Christ's sake take me to Mime
apolis, if 1 haye.to go there on a
stretcher. If 1 had $780, 900 as they say
l have, do you think 1 should be living
like this?"
DR.. Ames is willing to turn all his
Minneapolis property over to his bonds
men and to reimburse them for what
they have expended.
AS a matter of fact DR.. Ames may
return to Minneapolis with absolute
impunity. Coffee john Fitchette is
dead and buried. J. c. Sodini. the bad
man of the Washington avenue rialto,
is in Europe. He is understood to be
bucking the bank Of Monte Carlo.
