IN OUR OWN STATE.
Is Adams, the Chester Burglar, Alive9

Is Adams, the chester Burglar, Alive?
People in Chester have been greatly
stirred over the repeated rumors that
Clarence Adams, the burglar who was
supposed to have died in the state prison
at Windsor last January, is alive, and
that n travelling salesman, who was for
merly well acquainted with him, met
and conversed with him in Montreal re-
Gently Adams was one of the prominent
citizens of the town, who had been rep
resentative in the legislature, and the en-
tire community was surprised in July
1902, when he was wounded by trap gun
while attempting to burglarize n mill. A
search of his house revealed n large num-
Der of articles which had been stolen at
different times in Chester and vicinity
over a period of several years. 1t has
been claimed that his coffin was opened
and that it was found to contain nothing
but pieces of marble, and that Adams
feigned death and with the assistance of
accomplces fled to Canada in the guise
of a clergymen.
The Rutland Herald, which has inves-
tigated the story, finds but little basis
for its foundation, and John Greenwood, n
representative of Durham Brothers of
in connection with the story of Adams's
resurrection, states that the report that
he saw the former prisoner in Montreal
is wholly false. Mr.. Greenwood's terri
tory does not include Montreal, and he
has not been in that city in several
months.

Michael, Midget Bicycle Racer, Dead.

Jimmy Michael. the midget bicycle rae
err died sddenly of congestion of the
brain on Monday of last week, on board
the French line steamer La SaVoe while
en- route to this country. Death was due
undoubtedly to an injury which he sus-
tanned by a fall in Berlin last year. He
underwent an operation at that time, but
since then he had suffered at times from
paralysis of the left side of his face.
Michael was about q years old, and as
he was smooth faced and weighed only
105 pounds he looked like n boy His
home was in Wales but in the past ten
years he had raced all over the civilized
world. He had defeated all the crack
middle distance riders of the world and
at one time held all records from 10 to
80 miles.

Mrs. Cassie Chadwick whose husband
Is n reputable physician in Cleveland
Ohio, has been the subject of extended
discussion in leading Boston and New
York papers this week. Herbert D.
Newton of Brookline, Mass, has brought
suit on her to recover notes to the
amount of $3.50, 900, and the Citizens ma
tional bank of Oberin. Ohio, which has
suspended is understood to hold her
notes for a large amount. The Elyria
Ohio. Savings and Deposit bank has filed
an attachment to recover $40, 900 loaned to
Mrs Chadwick. There are indications of
other large financial deals in which she
figured, and one claim was made that she
secured large advance of money in
Pittsburg by presenting papers signed by
Andrew Carnegie, and representing a to-
tai value of half million.
No definite explanation is given of the
manner in which Mrs. Chadwick carried
on her extensive operations 1t is more
than limited in some of the papers that
Mrs. Chadwick resembles Lydia DeVere
who was sent to the Columbus. Ohio, pen
itentiary for forgery. Madam DeVere
was woman of humble parentage. whose
home was near Woodstock, Ont. She was
arrested in Toledo in 1890 for forging a
note for $4,000. After her release she
was known as Mrs Hooper. and is said
to have been married to a wealthy Ohio
man of that name. There are also va
rious allegations of her transactions as a
clairvoyant. Mrs. Chadwick is represented
by well-known lawyers i'm New York, but
she disappeared this week from the Hol-
land House in that city. where she had
been living with her son, II years old.

This Is Leap Year.

The year 1904 is leap year and
that fact will have something to do
with making possible varieties in
social customs. 1t is generally un-
derstood that women have more pri-
vileges in a leap year than they do
during any other time in the century,
and many sensitive young men have
been lodging somewhat elderly young
ladies ever since New Years Day.
1t is so long since there has been a
leap year that many have forgotten to
fear it. The last leap year was in
1896 and the reasoni for the lapse of
eight years instead Of four is that the
designers Of the present calendar gave
February an extra day every four
years. except when 1T should happen
that the number representing the
fourth year was not divisible by four.
There are many ways in which leap
year is recognized, though most of
them are in the form of jests. 1t is
believed that il is during the leap
year, the perogatlve OF a woman to
ask mans hand in marriage, though
recorded instance has not been
found. In connection with this idea
it is a traditional belief in this city
that if man refuses such an offer lie
must at once purchase the heart
broken maiden a new silk dress as a
sort of balm to her wounded feelings.
