Death by electricity awaits the burglar
who may have the temerity to venture
into the home of Biovanni p Morosin, at
Riverside. For several years the homes of
the millionaires living between Spuyten
Duyvil and Riverdale have been magnet
for every passing burglar. In most of the
houses are treasures of pictures, worries,
curios and jewels. Many of the houses have
private watchmen, but in some electricity
is relied on to give warning of intruders.
Mr.. Morosinis Is one of the latter. He in
stalled his own electric plant and extended

wires to all parts of the grounds surround
ing the house, among the trees and along
every path.
AS sleigh or coach passes through the
gate, late at night, the grounds for 100 feet
about suddenly burst into light. Adjacent
trees glow with dazzling flashes. Nearing
the house, the entire way is lighted auto
matically. All the windows on the lower
floor are connected with heavily charged
electric wires. When the family retire, the
switch is turned on, and any one attempt
ing to open a window after that will re-
ceive a shock that is likely TO kill him.
This device for protection against burglars
is one of Mr.. Morosinis recent additions to
his home. He Is determined that no one
shall enter his house.. and believes that IL
a man is justified under the law in shooting
an intruder. he is also Justified in shocking
him with electricity.

SECOND BODY Is FOUND.
Benjamin Morris, Rock Island Bridge
Man, Taken From River.

The body of Benjamin Morris, one
of the two men drowned by falling
into the river from the scaffolding
while at work on the Rock Island
bridge two weeks ago, was found
about 5 o'clock Friday afternoon on
the north bank of the river. about
four miles east of the city. D. Don
nelly, an employe of N z. Copeland.
the nurseryman, made the discovery.
The body was lodged on the bank and
was partially out of water. 1t was
taken to Shellabarger & Sons under
taking rooms.
The length of time which the body
has been in the water naturally
caused it to be in a bad state of de-
composition. It was impossible to
make a positive identification, but the
clothes correspond to the blouse and
jumper which Morris wore at the time
he fell into the river. Coroner Hoge-
boom will not hold an inquest, if
Morris friends succeed today in max
ing a positive Identification of the
body.
Morris lived at Holton. where he
leaves a wife and two children The
body of Clyde Beaver, who was
drowned at the same time. was re-
covered Sunday. Donnely will re-
ceive $50 reward for the recovery.

PREDICTION OF MACK.
New Yorker Says 1t VIII BE E'arLer
on the Second Ballot.

New York. June 25.-Norman II.
Mack, New York's member OF the
Democratic national committee, re-
turned to the city today after a trip
through the south ern states. Speak
ing OF the outlook for Judge Parker's
nomination. he said:
4 am now convinced that Parker
will be nominated on the second bal
lot. if not on the first He viii have
practically the solid south with him.
Some of the southern states have not
instructed for Parker, but all Of them
are in favor of his nomination No
other candidate is mentioned in the
south, and no candidate has been sug-
Parker combination could be affected.
Votes for favorite sons may pre-
vent the nomination of Parker on the
first ballot. but it is certain that he
will win on the second. He has with
him the states which will give the
votes that are necessary to elect a
Democratic president, and he is the
only man in sight who has a good
chance to carry these states
What do the Democrats Of the
south think OF Judge Parker's policy
of silence % vas asked
"He has lost nothing by attending
to his duties as chief justice of III
court Of appeals and refusing to 90
on the political stump" Mr.. Mack re-
piled. Il found that the Dem ocratic
leaders think all the more of him on
account of the strength OF character
he has shown IN keeping quiet under
the circumstances. They believe that
Judge Parker is a man who cannot
be turned from what he considers his
duty by any ClamCr-
