VALUE OF A NAME
just Because 1t Was Unique
1t Brings a Fortune.

BLOOMINGTON, ILL.,. Aug. 2S.-Like
a fairy tale is the story of pretty
Tiona King, beautiful daughter OF
Bloomington. who, because she was the
pessessor of unique name, the only
heritage of her mother, who died in
giving her birth, was able to disclose
the identity of her parents and enter
into the possession of a fortune that
had awaited claimant for sixteen
years. :,

Tiona when she was a founding in
the Girls Industrial home. Her father
disappeared before her birth. and her
mother left no clew as to her identity
when she died.
Recently lady in Leroy named
Belle Craig noticed an item in the So
ciety columns of local paper which
stated that Miss Tiona King was enter
tanning a few friends from Chicago.
Mrs. Craig was attracted by the name
of Tiona, which was that of her girl-
hood chum. It's uniqueness decided
her to investigate, and, finding that
Miss King was a founding, kept up
an investigation which finally resulted

mundy, ILL.,, which tract was worth a
very large sum, owing to it's proximity
to the city.
The legacy came from the grand
father of the deceased at Kinmundy,
and where Tiona's parents resided. The
father of the girl is still missing. but

may lead to his discovery if he is alive.
Miss King is considered one of the
prettiest girls in Bloomington, and the
discovery of her family and also her
inheritance has been followed by
hearty congratulations. Steps are now
being taken to have the property trans
ferred. Miss Tiona is devoted to her
foster parents. who treated her as
their own, and the recent interesting
discoveries will make no change in her
relations to Mr.. and Mrs. King.

Continues Serious.

OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 28.-Jefferson
Keep and Edgar Hamilton. boys, went
swimming in some back water in
South Omaha and drowned. Willie
Paulsen lost his life in the flooded cell
lar of his home in Council Bluffs.
Railroads are still sufferers, although
a few trains were started today. All
eaSt-bound traffic on the Burlington
is going via st. Joseph. Other roads
are sending their passengers by cir
cuitous routes. Tomorrow is expected
to bring relief. as all the roads have
large gangs at work on damaged
tracks.
Fort Crook City, seven miles south,
is under water, which is five feet deep
in many homes. The sudden flood was
caused by a cloudburst above the city.
Fifty families are being taken care of
in tents.
COUNCIL BLUFFS. Iowa, Aug. 2S.-
All the lower portions of the city are
still under water that has reached the
lower floors of many homes. Row boats
were used in several of the downtown
districts today. That portion of the
country between here and Lake Man
ava, five miles south, is a lake. Street
cars were abandoned on the line to
ManaWa, and launches are used in
stead.
Inc lake. 1tSel1 partly afllIlclal, over
flowed last night, and extensive dam
age was done. Only one railroad had
clear tracks out of Council Bluffs to-
day. Eastern mails are ty-eight
hours late.

Special to The Globe.
NEW YORK, Aug. 28.-Prominent
Tammany men were discussing with
much interest today the announcement
from the West that Charles A. Towne
would be Bryan's choice for president
in 1904. Since his residence was es-
tablished in New York former Senator
Towne has grown in the favor of the
Tammany leaders. He was one of the
political orators on the Fourth of July.
Charles F. Murphy. leader of Tammany
Hall, would not talk about the posi-
bility of supporting Towne in 1904.
1t is too early" he said, ''to think
about that now" Mr. Towne has been
selected to deliver the Grafton at the
commemoration of the centenary of
the execution of Robert Emmett at the
Academy of Music here Sept 20.
Mr.. Towne has strong political back
ing here and his friends declare that
they will shortly start boom for him
for the Democratic presidential nomi-
nation. Tammany may throw it's en-
tire influence for him in the national
convention next year.

MAN AND WIFE ROB
She Holds Reins of Rig While
Her Husband Does His Work.

PORTLANDs Or, Aug. 28.-Cringing
in cells at the Seattle city Jail, self
confessed hold-up artists are Ell. w.
Haynie and his bride, formerly Miss
Grace Walton, of Portland. Surround
ed by a Gordon of detectives and police
in his lodgings in a swell hotel, the
young criminal was arrested early this
morning. Heswas just going to his
room. A search {reyealed the presence
of his wife, whb was hiding behind a
door. In the bosom Of her dress the
officers found asdagger and a revolver.
In the room they found two revolvers
and several masks. Haynie carried a
revolver and siingshot. The latter
he used the previous night in a mur-
derous assault on City Detective Lee
A. Barbee, who attempted to arrest
him.
Mrs. Haynie held the reins of a
horse and buggy while her husband
held up three men in one hour.
Than Grace Walton there are few
better known young women here. Port
landers recall her asstfle young woman
who made rapid race for queen of the
Portland Elks' carnival one year ago.
She was defeated by comparatively
few votes. She is about nineteen years
old.
Haynie halls from Forest Grove,
where his parents now reside. He is
twenty two years of age, tall and hand
some. Both Haynie and his wife were
we'll dressed. The woman speaks two
or three languages and is of notable re-
finement.
Detective Barbee had been on the
lookout for his man for several days.
He met Haynie. who answered the de-
scription Of the highwayman, at 4
o'clock this morning on dark corner
in the residence part of the city. With
a slingshot the officer was laid low and
Haynie ran. Barbee recovered and
fired three shots at the fugitive. Later
he formed posse of officers and sur
rounded the Biggs apartment house,
where the Haynes resided. 1t is be-
lieved the couple have figured in a large
number of daring hold-ups which have
puzzled the police recently.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 2S.-A
decidedly new turn in the case of
United States Vice Consul William c..
Magelssen at Beirut, Syria, who was
reported to have been assassinated last
Sunday, developed tonight when it be-
came known that the report was in
correct, and that although Mr.. Magels-
sen had been shot at, he had not even
been injured.
This information came to the state
department tonight in a dispatch from
United States Minister Leishman at
Constantinople, who said the mistake
in making the original announcement
was due to an error in the transmits
sion of the cipher dispatch from Con-
sui Ravndal at Beirut in reporting the
incident to the minister. The dispatch
from Mr.. Leishman was communicated
to the president at once at Oyster Bay
Acting Secretary Loomis declined to
make public the text of Minister Leish-
mans dispatch tonight, but gave 6
summary of its contents. 1t showed
that Mr.. Magelssen had been shot al
by some person at the time unknown
to the officials, but that he had not
been hit. The local Turkish officials
were prompt to express their regret at
the occurrence and were exerting them
selves to apprehend the would-be as
sassin, but thus far had been unsuc-
cessful The minister's dispatch also

MISFORTUNE STILL
ATTENDS LANGLEY
Houseboat Of the Aerodrome Slips Her
Moorings in Gale.

Underwater, Va, Aug. 2S.-Prof.
Langleys airship houseboat had an
other dangerous experience in a Poto-
mac gale this evening. Soon after the
experts gave up hopes of launching
the aerodrome today and returned to
Clifton Beach, storm broke furiously
The houseboat slipped her moorings
and Travelled rapidly down stream two
miles, where her anchors caught in the
mud bottom. The small steam launch
tender, the float and three rowboats
were lost. The houseboat is now near
er the Virginia shore, where she will
remain until after an experiment
Before the storm Prof. Langley said
a test would be made Saturday if the
weather permitted. The flying ma
chine was SO shaken up that the
launching may be postponed for re-
pairs. The machine was all ready to
fly this afternoon. when the breeze
stiffened to ten miles an hour and the
experiment was abandoned.

LOSES $1,5OO,OOO
IN STATE CAPITOL
St. Paul Man Fails to Find
Bonds Left There Long
Ago.

An envelope containing government
bonds and copper mining stock, valued
at $1,000 900, which Joseph Picard. of
100 Thomas street, says he placed In
a vault at the state capitol sixteen
years ago for safekeeping. cannot be
found.
Picard was at the capitol yesterday
afternoon in search of his fortune. but
none of the offices visited by him were
able to unearth his valuable papers.
Picard's father. Joseph Picard. a
wealthy Frenchman, died in Canada
sixteen years ago. and, according to the
story related by the son. placed in his
hands just before his death an envelope
which he was instructed not to open
until he was twenty-one years old. He
was then fourteen, and admits that he
disobeyed his dying fathers injunction
and opened the envelope. which he
found to contain government bonds
valued at $1,000,000 and copper mining
stock worth half as much.
This envelope, Picard says, he re-
sealed and took it to the capitol, where
he asked the officials to place 1T in a
vault for him for safekeeping. He says
his true name of Alphonse Detrois was
written on the envelope, and that he
was told it would be safe there as long
as he cared to lease it in the states
care.

time and had but little appreciation OF

SHE CLAIMS FORTUNE
Poor Nebraska Woman Thinks
Neumann's $500, 900 Is Hers.

OMAHA, Neb., Aug. 28.-The niece
to whom old Thomas Neumann, of
Wheeling, W. Va, left a fortune of
$500, 900, is evidently Mrs. Henry Klas-
sen, the wife of a poor, Woodworking
farmer living near Calhoun, Neb.,
twenty-fiv miles north of Omaha. Be
fore her marriage Mrs. Klassen's name
was Elizabeth Neumann, and she lived
in this city. The home of the heiress
is a little tumble down, unpainted
frame cottage tucked between a flower
garden and thirty acres of tall corn.
When a reporter called there today
and inquired for the niece of Thomas
Neumann, a ruddy faced, good-looking
young woman, wearing a calico dress.
with sleeves rolled to the elbow and
wearing neither shoes nor stockings,
appeared in the doorway. She had al
ready read in the newspapers Of the
100000 left to Elizabeth Neumann,
and appeared considerably frustrated.
"Yes, we have been talking it over,
my husband and l." said Mrs. Klassen.
II think there's no doubt in the world
that am the niece of Thomas Neu-
mann, and shall inherit the fortune. I
am sure, at any rate, that am the only
Elizabeth Neumann living in or near
Omaha My mother remembers dis
tinctly that my fathers father had a
brother Thomas, who came to America
when my father did, and located in
Pennsylvania, and we are quite sure he
had a son Thomas, and that he is the
man who left me the fortune. While
my father used to live here he wrote
often to his relatives in the East, but
we have lost track of them since he
went away
Mrs Klassen has engaged an Omaha
attorney to look after her uncle's es-
tate.

BLAINE ESTATE IS
WORTH A MILLION
Much Surprise Is Created by the Size
of the Figures.

BANGOR, Me-, Aug. 2S.-Much sur
prise has followed the announcement
of the value of the estate of the late
Mrs. James G. Blaine, the property be-
ing appraised at $1.Q00,000. 1t is known
that Mr.. Blaine was not a wealthy
man, as wealth is now estimated. Il
has often been said that the campaign
of 1884 cost Mr.. Blaiesa 100000 or
more, and at it's close he told some OF
his intimates that he was then a poor
man. 1t is said in Augusta that Mr.
Blaine cleared about 100000 on his
book. Twenty Years in Congress-" and
that he also made some very profitable
investments in stocks. The estate is
given in its entirety to Mrs. Blaine's
children.

er she is compelled to seek advantages
in Korea equivalent to those which
Russia has secured in Manchuria. If
this scornful attitude of the Russians
in the far East towards Japanese pre-
tensions reflects the opinion of the au-
thorities at st. Petersburg there can be
little reason to- expect an amicable set
tlement of the proposals for the modus
vivendi presented by the Japanese
minister at st. Petersburg on Aug. IL.
Those proposals embodied reciprocal
recognition of the respective rights of
the two powers in Manchuria and
Korea.
