MOTHER BRAVES HOOPS
TO SAVE HER BABE
Stands Boldly in Front of Runaway
Horse and Infant Is Unhurt

PHILADELPHIA, June 27.-Entirely
unmindful of herself and thinking only
of her baby, Mrs. Linda Higgins stood
in front of runaway horse at Fiji
teenth and Thompson streets and wait
ed for it to knock her down.
Mrs. Higgins, who is young and pref
ty, lives at 1858 Burns street. She was
trundling the baby-her first-in a go
cart.
AS she started across Fifteenth street
a horse attached to Kayser & ALL
man delivery wagon came dashing to-
ward her.
She did not see it until it was too
late to turn back, but she gave the 60
cart a shove and then stood stock still,
facing the horse, thinking in her con-
fusion that the horse was determined
upon trampling her baby and that it
would be necessary to distract it's at
tention.
The horse paid no attention to moth
er or child, swerving neither to the
right nor to the left. 1t struck Mrs.
Higgins with it's hoofs and sent her
rolling in the street.
Her head is cut in several places,
and she has four or five ribs broken,
but they think there is no doubt of her
recovery,

Kaiser's Wonderful Clock

More than a year ago, when Ger
many began to make preparations for
the st. Louis exposition, the kaiser
gave orders that the German house
at the exposition should be ornaments
ed with a large clock which would rival
If not excel the wonderful work of art
made by Cassiere, which may be seen
by visitors to Versailles His majesty
called together committee with Prof.
Otto RohlOff at its head and several
times he met the members of the COM
mittee and expounded to them his
views as to how the clock should be
made, placing before them numerous
drawings by his own hand& The clock
is now ready, and the kaiser has seen
it and pronounced it the finest work
of it's kind in the world. 1t will deco
rate the German house during the ex-
position and will then be a prominent
ornament in the Berlin palace. The
clock is built in chaste baroque style
and is made of e-gilded bronze. 1t
rests in a socket of green Greek mar
bic. From the center of the four feet
supporting it rises a knotty German
oak with a dragon at it's roots.
The tree grows higher, and in it's
upper branches is an eagles nest, the
eagle and its brood staring at the ris-
ing sun. This represents morning. On
another branch are two owls as SYM
bols of night. Joining the four feet is
an imperial crown with the initials

THIEF IN CHURCH
TOOK UP COLLECTION
While Priests Back Was Turned
He Passed Through With
Derby Hat

NEWARK, N. j., June 27-Scores of
persons in attendance at the last of the
special devotional services in ST. Johns
Roman Catholic church were robbed of
pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters
on Tuesday evening by a resourceful
thief
During the services which We're con-
Quoted by the pastor, the Rev. Father
j. P. Poels, the fellow occupied one of
the pews in the front of the church.
He was a stranger in the flock, but no
one thought of that until after his dis
appearance.
When the time arrived for the usual
evening offering he arose, stepped into
the center aisle with a businesslike air
and, using his derby hat beganto take
up the collection. The ordinary collec-
ton basket used by the church is about
the same size as a derby hat, and it's
bottom part, or bowl, is black, so that
it is now believed many in the congre-
cation did not notice the difference in
the receptacle in which they were drop
ping their contributions to the church
Others did, however, and there were
some smiles and comments about the
passing of the hat in church.
Coins Chink Pleased Him
Coin after coin was dropped into it,
beginning with a 25-cent piece from the
first person before whom the hat was
placed. Before he had gone half the
length of the aisle the fellows derby
was well weighted with money, and at
each new contribution he shook it as
if pleased at the Jingle the coins made.
He was smiling and affable, and no one
questioned his right to make the col
lection. If ef
AS is the custom during the making
of the collection, Father Peols stood
with his back to the congregatio else
he might have noticed that the collector
was stranger. When the fellow had
reached the end of the aisle at the rear
of the church he walked into the YES
tibule, pocketed the coins and stepped
out into Mulberry street, and disap-
peared
Meanwhile Edward Wein, the SEX
ton, whose duty it is to gather up the
collection baskets at the rear of the
church and deposit them in their prop
er place, discovered the theft. Several
members of the congregation went into
the street, but a search for the daring
thief was unavailing. Since the story
became known last night the police are
anxious to warn other churches against
the fellow.

COURT HOLDS IT'S
LEGAL TO "SHADOW"
Declares Private Detective Cannot Be
Prosecuted for Watching Citizen

ALBANY, N. Y.,June 27.-The court
of appeals has reversed the courts be-
low in the case of David Weller, a pri-
vate detective Of New York city, and
in SO doing has established the right of
a private detective to shadow" per-
son.
Weller is employed by a private
agency in New York city, and, under
instructions of his employer, '.shad-
owed Henry ]. Broker for five days.
Broker discovered that he was being
followed and had Weller arrested for
disorderly conduct. Weller was tried
under that section of the penal code
that provides that any person shall be
guilty of misdemeanor who shall "by
any offensive or disorderly act or Ian
guage, annoy or interfere with any per-
son or persons in any place.
He was convicted, and the appellate
division affirmed the conviction, hold
ing that a private citizen has the right
to pursue the tenor of his way without
being annoyed by detectives following
him.
The court of appeals takes the OPP
posite view and holds that the mere
act of any person following another
does not constitute a crime unless the
person following either by word or act
molests the person followed.

DARING BURGLAR
LEAVES HIS CARD
Protective Association WARNING
Falls to Keep a Bold
Intruder Away

NEW YORK, June 27.-Really moth
ing whatever was stolen, but for all
that aristocratic Short Hills, N. j.. has
been shaken by the -bravado Of some
intruder into its charmed circle. He
selected as the field of his operations
the sanctum of Short Hills Burglar
Protective association.
leading spirit in forming the pro-
tective association was John Farr. He
became the president of the associa-
ton. He is widely known and esteemed
as the treasurer of the Baltusrol Golf
club and also a member of the local
board of education
A standing reward Of 500 was Of
cred for the arrest of any burglar, and
members of the organization placed on
their front doors plat informing all
beholders that the resident within was
member of the local protective assoc
citation.
Mr.. Farr decided to remove his fam
lily to the seaside this summer and he
rented cottage at MantoIoking, on the
New Jersey shore. Wednesday the
family's chattels had been Grated and
packed for removal to the new abiding
place.
Valuables were collected from the
mantels, tables, hooks and corners, and
scarcely anything except floor cover
ings and window screens was left in it's
proper place. The few edibles remain
ing in the refrigerators were about the
only portables left unpacked.
While the family slept some bold in
truder, disregarding the conspicuous
warning plate on the front door, en-
tered the Farr residence and roamed
around it at will. When the servants
arose Thursday they hastily notified the
members of the family that somebody
had been inside the house besides it's
lawful occupants.
The burglar alarm wires had been
severed and on a card attached to the
very Burglar Protective association no.
tice were written these words:
Take down this sign, as you have
nothing to protect. The only thing
worth taking is the dog. And when
we want him we will come back after
him.
The audacity of the thief was par
alyZing, but soon the family reused it
self and a Pinkerton detective was sent
out to Short Hills from this city. He
rummaged around the place and then
reported that in his opinion the matter
was all a practical joke.
The burglar had merely helped him.
self to some melons from the refrigera-
tor and had not taken a single article
of value, Notwithstanding the tempta-
ton of finding so many things nicely
wrapped up for removal by the owner
himself.
Mr.. Farr was forced to admit that he
had not lost anything Of value, but the
other members of the Burglar Pro-
tective association are perturbed.

Three Armies Number 100000
ST. PETERSBURG June 27-Lieut.
Gen. Sakharoffs dispatch confirms the
belief that the great decisive battle of
the campaign between Gen. Kuropat-
kin's main army and the armies of
Gems. Kuroki and Oku is imminent.
The three armies probably aggregate
500, 0CO men, and their outposts are to-
day in touch all along the line. The
japanese evidently tried to draw Ku-
ropatkin as far south as possible, hold
ing Oul DIS dH incentive a cnoCK to the
advance of Oku'S main army. Mean
time Oku swung sharply to the east
ward to join Kuroki toward the Chapan
pass, Kuroki at the same time moving a
strong force by the right flank toward
Hai-tcheng.
The main Japanese advance con-
tinues along the main Feng Wang
Chang Liauyang road, avoiding the
Mao Tien pass by a detour to the
northward. The advance in all points
is being attended by constant skirmish-
ing.
Nothing is known here of the exact
point at which Kuropatkin's main force
is concentrated, though it is believed
that large part of the Liau-yang
force has been moved to a point be-
tween Kinchau and Ia Tche Kiao.
According to a dispatch from Ia
Tche Kiao today a large force has
pushed southwark from Ia Tche Kiao
against Oku. While Kuropatkin is thus
extending himself the Japanese with
great mobility seem to be trying to
concentrate for the purpose of striking
the Russians in flank and rear.

CONSUMP TIVE HAS
HOME IN A TREE
Artist Works, Eats and Sleeps
in Rooms Perched Sixty
Feet From Ground

STEUBENVILLE, June 27.-Sixty feet
above the ground, perched among the
snort branches of a great white oak on
the outskirts of Urbana, are located
Camp Aloft' and the ''Treetop Studio"
which together make the home of Grin
Stelnberger, an artist, who from this
elevated spot can view twenty miles Of
the beautiful Mad River Valley.
Some time ago Steinberger was said
to be in the last stages of consumption.
In this extremity the wild, free life
of the woods appealed to him. He be-
came imbued with the notion that his
need was for the tonic of nature He
determined to live the life of the birds.
and sought out one Of the highest trees
in the county for this purpose.
For several months Steinberger has
lived in his strange residence, and dur
ing that time he has gained in weight
and the tan Of health has returned to
mis- face. He has constructed an odd
rope swing or ladder which is operated
by means of a block and tackle, fas-
tened to the branches of the tree, by
which he manages to get up and down
and by which food is sent to him. At
one end is a seat, on which he composes
himself with what courage he can mus
ter, while he grasps another rope and
slowly draws himself up the trunk of
the tree.
His Lofty Rooms
On a platform Steinberger has fitted
up several small rooms. One is used
as studio, one as a dining-room and
kitchen and one as his bedroom. He
has built an earthen fireplace, so that
he does not have to descend to the
ground for thing. He does much Of
his painting in the open air, for the
platform commands a view not to be
equaled elsewhere in the state.
The tree is about 100 feet in height
On its topmost branch Steinberger has
hung flag made of a red blanket
Sewed on its sides are white eagle,
which the artist defines as emblematic
of purity and strength; a golden star
and a f1eur de lis.
Steinberger says the atmosphere above
the trees has purity which one cannot
appreciate until he has cast convention
ality to the wind and lived in a treetop
for month. "Talk about your sani-
tariums and your mountain air. said the
artist. Il will venture to say that the
early morning breeze which / enjoy UP
in this tree is fully as refreshing and
healthful as the air of the mountains
Steinberger has had many odd ex-
periences during his residence in ''the
treetop studio One one occasion a
bullet from careless hunters gun passed
within an inch of his head while he was
sleeping.
