FAILS TO PUT
COIN In BANK
Warrant Is Secured for the
Arrest of Edward Ansell
for Felony Embezzlement

Edward Ansell, a young Englishman,
is wanted by ths police on charge of
felony embezzlehent. He has fled and
it is believed has gone to Chicago. The
police of that city have been notified
by wire to look out for him, and the
police in other cities of the East have
also been asked to arrest him if he
should make his appearance there.
The complaining witness against An
sell is William Metzner. manager of the
Nonotuck Silk Company. 5S5 Market
street. AnselI was employed by Metz
ner about three months ago as book
keeper. On February 30 Ansell received
1907 "a in cash and checks aggregating
$1400 to deposit with the Crocker- Wool
worth Bank.
He returned to the Office with the
bank book, which purported to show
that the amount had been deposited.
Next morning Ansell did not appear at
the office, and on Friday it was dis
covered that he had not deposited the
money in bank, and, it is alleged, had
made a false entry in the bank book
The checks had not been cashed and it
is presumed he had taken them with
him.
On November 10 last Ansell was ar
rested here on the arrival of the steam
er Umatilla on a dispatch from Chief
North of Vancouver, B. c., stating that
he was wanted there for forgery. He
had been employed as a clerk at the
Commercial Hotel and, 1t was alleged,
had forged checks in the names of the
proprietor and several of the guests,
which it was claimed he cashed just be-
fore the steamer sailed.
He applied for writ of habeas corpus
for his release, and through the care
lessness Of a detective who was sent
from Vancouver to take him back he
was discharged from custody by Judge
Cook on December 2, as there were no
papers on which to hold him. That
same afternoon Chief Whitman received
a dispatch to hold Ansell at all hazards,
but he had gone.
Ansea had the cool assurance not to
leave the city but applied for and OBJ
tanned the position of boOkl<eeper with
the Nonotuck Company. He told Man
ager Metzner that he had just arrived
from Alaska. He is about rs years of
age. short and slight build, light hair
and ruddy complexion, and is a fluent
talker.

SOME NEW BOOKS.
Gen, Lee,

1t Is long expected biography which
now secs the light In Recollections and
Letters Of Ge, erai Robert e. lee. by his
son, Capt. ROBERT Il. LEE Doubleday, Page
d Co.. It has long been known that the
materials possessed by the author Of this
biography were Of exceptional interest and
that he was peculiarly qualified for the
fllial task which he has here discharged
What could not be foreeeen by those who
had no personal acquaintance with the
author was the admirable spirit In which
the book Is written That devotion would
amin ate every reference TO his illustrious
father was to be expected, but 1t may sur
prise many readers to know how judicious,
appreciative and kindly are the references
to other persons There 10 no assumption
OF right to sit in final judgment, no attempt
to review e1 cdthedrd and set aside the
verdict OF military historians; on the con-
trary, the author confines himself almost
always to the production Of evidence,
much of which 10 new, and lets the facts
speak for themselves. Modest and self
efYaoing as Is the writer's personal attitude,
he must know that he has powerfully
helped US to form right conception OF his
father, considered both as a man and as
commander.

JAP PAPER PLANT HERE.
Possibility of Producing the Far East
Article in America Receiv-
ing Attention.

The cultivation of paper plants in
Japan is a very important industry,
SAYS Booklovers' Magazine. AS is we'll
known, Japanese paper of various kinds
is in demand throughout the world Re-
Gently American and European manu-
facturers have been giving some atten-
tion to the possibility of producing from
japanese paper pulp of some of the
numberless useful articles aad tops sim
liar to those in vogue in the island en-
pire. To that end, Japanese paper
shrubs are to be planted in America and
in the countries Of southern Europe.
The United States department of agri-
culture which recently sent experts to
secure seeds of the mitsumata plants,
is to make extensive experiments in
growing this particularly valuable va
riety 1t is believed that this shrub
will thrive in Florida, Louisiana, in ir-
rigated parts of Texas, and the Colorado
desert, and in some sections of the Sac.
ramento and San Joachim valleys in Cal
ifornia. The yield of the mitsumata
paper plant in Japan frequently amounts
to 1000 pounds of raw bark to the acre
The crude pulp is readily sold at 80 sen
(16 cents) the pound. The seed alone
is sometimes quoted at three yen ($1.5O)
the gallon. AS many as $4,000 shrubs
are grown on an acre.

There is a justice of the supreme court
In Washington whose guests have often

english glass decanters. Now, the judges

which explains it all, says the New York

The English do not use the mystic col

can, demand cash on delivery bf the
goods, and so it was that when the Jus

YELLOW DIAMONDS FAVORED
Newly Rich Frequently Wear Them
Many Use Sparklers to Ad-
vertise Success.

Nothing can be more beautiful than
pure white, old mine diamonds, but the
yellowiah Cape stones are the ones most
frequently seen in the ears and on the
fingers of the noveauX riches. Many
women seem to wear diamonds simply
as a method of advertising their hus-
bands success in business. 1t may be
useless to anathematize the diamond
engagement ring, which seems to have
such a firm hold upon the conventional
mind that the troth seems hardly bind
ing without this glitterirg adjunct, yet
what Of romance or Poetry there is cor
nected with it has never come to light.
Around the pearl, on the other hand,
cluster the songs and tales Of thousand
loves. OF recent years pearls have to
some extent been thrust into the back
ground by more gaudy rivals That this
was not always the case is shown by the
beautiful sets of jewelry our grand
mothers used to treasure and by the his
torical pearl necklaces and single stones
of which we read Over 300 years ago
