Passerby Turns In Alarm and
Puts Out Blaze

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Oct 22.-An old
man with whisIers as long as lambre-
quin stood in front of Washington street
business block this morning biting a
short cigar. The cigar went out, and
with its dying breath upbraided the old
man for his neglect to keep the fire Of
his devotion to the weed burning. Re
minded by the odor of the cigar and by
the light of the burnt orange hats that
streamed past him, the old man drew
forth a crippled match and relighted the
dead snipe UnmindfuI that the decrepit
match had. broken, and that the lighted
end had fallen on his whiskers, he puffed
on.
Then there ascended another odor, an
other dying breath. 1t was the smell Of
his burning whiskers, but the blend was
perfect, like that of garlic and onions,
and the old man distinguished not, but
voluntarily and involuntarily smoked on
Mail Carrier Downey saw the blaze, and
was the first to reach the spot He
turned in an alarm by frantic pull on
the old mans whiskers. Your whiskers
are afire,', he said why, so they are. !"
exclaimed the old man. II thought my
cigar had gone out again. And the old
man, his face blistered and his whiskers
still smoking under his ears. passed on.

CONAN DOYLE SUED
Ownerof Statuette Says Author
Detained 1t

LONDON, Oct. 22-There is a possi-
bility that the title of Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle's next adventure of Sherlock
Holmes will be 1.-The Mystery of the Ala
baster Statuette.''
Sir Arthur appeared yesterday after
noon at the Southwark police court pre-
pared to give evidence with respect to a
certain Italian statuette of white alabas-
ter, representing "A Girl at Fountain, "
in connection with which there is a sug-
gestion of mystery that would undoubt-
edly have afforded delight to the arch
detective of Baker street.
A summons was recently granted
against Sir Arthur on behalf of William
George Jones, for OBTAINING the statuette
in question. When the case came on at
Southwark yesterday Mr.. Newton, Mr..
Jones solicitor, said that since the sum
mons had been issued the statuette had
been returned. He now wished to with
draw. He suggested that he should be
awarded costs for the detention of the
work of art.
Doyle, then pointed out that the statuette
had never been claimed from his client.
and had not been returned by him. Be
fore the summons was issued Mr. Jones
could have recovered the statuette from
the company who had charge of it. On
Sept. 10 he had asked for it. and the
company had replied by telephone that
he could have it when he liked
Mr. Abinger went on to say that the
summons had only been taken out for the
purpose of annoying his client. Sir Arthur
was anxious to put stop to the persis-
tent annoyance from Mr. Jones. Mr..
Abinger suggested that the summons was
vexatious and should be dismissed with
costs.
The magistrate said he had no power to
do that, and the proceedings could be
taken elsewhere He was also unable
TO grant Mr.. Newton costs fer detention.
Mr. Abinger-I am anxious to end this
annoyance, which has for its object the
getting of money from Sir Arthur.
Mr.. Newton-I deny all this we can go
into other matters.
The Magistra te-AH l can say is that
the summons is Mithdra Mn.

N RESIDENT ROOSEVELT stand
~ ing on his head was the gra-
cious spectacle enjoyed by stu
dents at the ST. Paul Central
high school through the assistance of
Prof. o. T. Denny. Prof. Denny is the
astronomer of the school And when,
three years ago, Mr., Roosevelt, then
vice president, addressed the public
from the Cedar street steps of the state
capitol, Prof Denny, struggling to Sc
cure close view of a great man, was
seized with professional inspiration.
'.Us to the telescope" he cried, but
in more chastened diction; and away
to the telescope he hied in the van of
a cheering, giggling class. They climb
ed to the school observatory; they fo-
cused the sClark equitoriaP' upon the
soldier statesman as he brandished his
sword arm before the capitol, block
and half distant. Taking turns, the
professor and his Copernicans gazed at
the historic teeth, listened in fancy to
the story of the big stick. Apparently
the orator was fifteen feet away. But
he was standing on his head; he was
striking forte staccato at the sky.
A celestial telescope-if you haven't
got one in the house-inVerts the i'm
ages of objects seen through it. When
these are as round as a baseball or a
planet; the expression of the object is
equally agreeable whether bottom side
is up or topside But a vice president
well, I'm sure that if anything
could embarrass Teddy" remarked one
of the girls, accenting the any" of
course, in her girlish way, 1T would
be to know how perfectly ridic-u-
lous, etc"
Still more remarkable was the pri
vate view that Prof. Denny alone has
since obtained by turning his mind
and telescope from the rings of Saturn
to the clothesline of Mrs. John Doe.
Mrs. Doe, aloft upon a tenement house
down town, was hanging Out moist
and flaccid linen. But to the startled
eye of Prof. Denny, Mrs. Doe was
treading on the air invisible, while she
coaxed the several garments to ball
anee themselves rigidly along the
clothesline.
"Moon Parties" at Central High
Then there are moon parties to
sweeten life at .'the Central high"
You can't give a moon party unless
Prof. Denny is invited to attend and
bring his telescope. So the professor
is made. for convenience, the principal
host of the occasion. Young girls and
sleepy girls-much the same, natural
ly-attend moon parties from 8 p. m.
until II p. m. But such of the lassies
as boast the alert self confidence Of
two or three additional years prefer,
like the boys, a"moPning moon." They
are received by Prof. Denny in the OBJ
servatory from midnight until 2 o'clock
a. m., and they linger to peek at any,
thing wandering past the telescope un-
til summoned away like the elder
Hamlet
Entertainment less formal is given
occasionally by the astronomical de-
partment of the high school to older, if
not wiser folk. than the class of 19-.
Prof Denny has received church So
cieties In his Oriental dome atop of
'Centrals,' has welcomed fraternal So
cieties, social clubs and divers organi-
cations yearnings to make friends with
distant foreigners across the ether.
Also, of course, some classes at

Obituary.


Mr.. Alex. Moffatt died at 4:45
last Saturday afternoon. The
deceased died from heart trou-
BILE and he had been sufferer
for several years. He was also
subject to severe attacks of
asthma which no doubt fastened
his death. Last summer he was
over at Wimbledon attending to
a contract he had there and one
day stood in drilling rain and
caught cold. This brought on a
bad attack of asthma and heart
trouble and he had been confined
to his home ever since, getting
better and. worse until the past
two or three weeks when he ra-
pidly grew worse and died last
Saturday. He suffered very
much at times but through it all
bore it herolcally and bravely.
He was a christian man and died
strong in faith that he would go
to that home where sorrow and
trouble is mot known. His last
coherent words practically in
which he said farewell to his
bereavedwife and children was
that it was we'll with his soul and
that he was going ahead a short
time. He tried to comfort them
all through his sickness and was
happy at the thought that he was
gong to his eternal home. Hell
was a man of few words but a
deep thinker. He lived life of
uprightness and tried to live up
to the golden rule. Alexander
Moffatt was a good man and
Cooperstown has lost an honored
citizen. He was born November
~, 1910, near Edinburg, Scot
land and moved to Canada in
1864. He served in the Fenian
raid and was awarded a medal
for bravery by Queen Victoria.
He was married April &c, 1867 at
Fergus, Canada, to Mary. Jane
Miner. He moved to Valley
City in 1880. and to Sanborn in
1882 where he engaged in con-
tracing remaining there until
1895 when the family moved to
this place. Ten children were
born to Mr.. and Mrs. Moffatt
all of whom are now living,
the death Of the father making
the first break in the family
chain. The children are: Mrs.
Minnie Reese, Sanborn; Thomas
Moffatt, Valley City; Robert
Moffatt, Cooperstown; Mrs. G.
A. Hoar, Grow River. Mimi,
John Moffatt, Cooperstown; Mrs.
H. G. Mcdaniel, Aneta; Mrs.
Myma Abbott, Aneta; Mrs.
Theo. Marquardt, Miss Jessie
Moffatt and William B. Moffatt,
of Cooperstown. The funeral
services were held in the Con-
gregational church Monday after
noon, Rev. v. 81. Ruring preach
ing the sermon. The casket was
covered with beautiful flowers,
one piece representing 'sgates
ajar" being exceptionally beauti-
full. The remains were inferred
in the Cooperstown cemetery.
To the sorrow stricken wife who
has lost her helpmate and to the
children who have lost their
father the sympathy of this COM
munity goes out.
