 In a case tried at Leeds some years
 back a prisoner named Mountford was
 charged with a peculiarly diabolical of- fense. Having conceived lnurderous hatred of man who he imagined had done him an injury, Mountford set to
 work to blot his death. A few weeks
 later parcel was delivered at the in- tended victims house. The parcel, which loked innocent enough, was g. tin case holding several pounds of gum powder so packed as to explode when opened. Between two pieces of paper was some detonating power, connected with ingeniously arranged matches at the top and bottom of the box.
 The attempt failed, the internal ma- chine did not claim its victim, and the police were called into discover the | would-be assassin. Underneath the | brown paper in which the box was | wrapped the detective found a scrap of
 newspaper-a portion oe the Leeds In ltelligencer of July 5. Other circum- stances led them to suspect Mountford,
 and on their visiting his house and
 searching it they found a Leeds h.
 telligencer of that date with piece
 missing. The scrap in the internal ma
 chine fitted it exactly. Mountford was found guilty. #&5s@a <

4 GRANGE OF'TUN f.

It now appears that there are some patriotic business men in this coun- try. The Presidents decision to buy Panama Canal supplies in the open market has already had a remarkable effect on some Of the men who stand behind the industrial and shipping trusts of the country. They are falling over each other, figuratively speaking, in tl3eir haste to assure the govern nent that it will not be necessary to go abroad for building material, but that they stand prepared to deliver all the steel rails, pig iron, paint and other supplies required at prices equal to the lowest, to be found in foreign markets. It is now believed that it will not be necessary for the govern ment to place any important contracts abroad and that practically every dol lar expended for canal supplies will go to American firms.
 
 There has been a perfect deluge of letters from manufacturers, full of apologies and explanations. Agents of the big firms have also called in per- son at the office of Secretary Taft and of Chairman Shonts to protest that the government can get just as good rates from American as from foreign manu- lecturers. A representative of a big steel firm has informed the officials that his company was prepared to furnish steel rails at prices equivalent to those paid by English firms for American steel-made rails. He propos- ed that the government should pay the freight on the rails, which would bring them down to about $23 ton, or in the immediate neighborhood of the price in the English market.
 Good work This benevolent and be- neficent government ought not to be plundered.

that letter was in all probability the murderer. Suspicion now eentered around young fellow in whose com pany Webber had been seen.
 The day before the murder the sus- pected man had, it was developed, vis- tied shop to buy a sheet of note pa per. He had then asked for pen and an envelope, and reuested permission I to sit at the counter and write brief letter. When he had gone the shop man found half sheet of paper left on the counter in the plotting pad at which the prisoner had been writing. This half sheet the man put back into the box with the other paper. The last note found in the dead girls box, mak- ing the fatal appointment, was written on half sheet of paper. This and the piece left by the accused man in the shop were put together. Microscopic examination revealed the fact that the two halves made one sheet, The man was executed.

Others, equally as well able to judge, declared that the writing was not his. But the prosecution had what appeared to- be most conclusive evi-r dence of the prisoners guilt. Three Of these anonymous letters had been writ ten on three pieces of paper, which had been roughly torn out Of a single sheet, In a writing desk in the prisoners house tie detectives found scrap of paper, which when fitted with the three pieces on which the letters were written, exactly formed one sheet The ragged edges of the different portions exactly fitted each other, and the wa terrnark and name of the maker, which was divided into three parts. were per- .fecr when the pieces of paper were placed together. The evidence appear ed overwhelming, and the prisoner, pro- testing his innocence. was sentenced to penal servitude. The prisoner was removed, when suddenly a person stood up in court and denounced himself as the real criminal. He was the son of the prisoner-a youth of IS.
 He wrote upon piece of paper from memory the contents Of the three threatening letters. His handwriting was exactly that in the criminal epist- les; mistakes in spelling which ap-. peared in them were reproduced in the sons writings He had. he explained. access to the writing desk in his fath-. er's room. and had abstracted the paper from it. There could be no doubt of his guilt, and the father was par-doned while the son went to prison for seven years.

NOTABLE DIREER.

The meatless dinner which the wife of Senator John B. Henderson of Mis- souri has just given in Washington is attracting meet attention. Mrs. Hem derson believes that meat is not only unnecessary but harmful as an article of food. This is what was offered to the guests: Fruit soup; imitation sal mon, saucs Hollandaise; cucumbers; unfermented Concord grape juice mixed with Apollinaris; broiled slices pinenut protose, nut sauce; artichoke cups and asparagus; unfermented Catawba wine; eggs a la Villerer, mushrooms; c. c. Drotose timbale, tomato sauce; grape fruit and cherry salad; cheese souffle; fruit frappe: Kellogg gelatine; imitation coffee. With this dinner there was a scientific menu or dietetic anal ysis showing the number, kind and proportion os the food units contained in each dish served" and Mrs. Tender son is quoted as saying: What aim- ed to show in my dinner tonight was that all the life and food clements could be supplied in palatable form without the use of meat"
 The list of guests was as remarka- ble as the msnu, being made up almost entirely of doctors. The serious pur- pose of the dinner was to convince medical men who hold the view that a vegetarian diet is incapabls of meet ing the requirements of a system de- p1eted by the ravages of tuberculosis that such is not the fact.

WORDS OF WISDOM

John Wanamaker has shown that he knows how to do business. And know ing how to do business he knows how tc advertise. This is what he says about it: The good sensible merchant sticks to his proposition throughout the year, never withdrawing his announce ment, but constantly pounding away at the public. There is only one way to advertise, and that is to hammer your name, your location, your business, so so consistently, so thorough Iy, into the peoples heads that if they walked in their sleep they would con- stantly turn their faces toward your store.

SENSIBLE NATURE STUDF.

Philadelphia has been described as corrupt and contented. It is not very contented just now, in the face of such outrageous corruption as has ap- peared in the gas business, and it is not altogether corrupt. An interesting ex- pertinent has been started in Philadel- phia under the auspices and initiative of the Civic Club and the Vacant Lots Cultivation Association. Four acres of ground have been devoted to the gar dening activities of twelve hundred boys and girls, in lots of twelve by fif- teen feet. The children are enthusias-
 tically at work, and expect to turn out as fine collection of gardens as the city has ever seen. The gardens, which adjoin the Matthias W. Baldwin school, at the corner of Sixteenth and Porter streets, are said to be the largest in ex- tent and to interest the largest number of pupils of any other similar undertak- ing. A member of the Civic Club com
 mittee said of this venture: Philadel-
 phia takes the lead in this good work.
 The growth of school gardens as a
 branch of industrial education in this
 country and in Europe during the past few years has been remarkable. Last year in tthis city nerhaps one thousand
 school children had gardens. This year there will be three thousand, and next year ten thousand. The largest garden last year was at F'ifty-sixth street and Lansdowne avenue, where there were

JR LINED STRAW HATS

A suggestion was made to us the other day that we try some such impossible combination in order to meet the condition of this i'm possible season. The theory was that people like to be reminded of their apparel as to what season it : is and that nothing except an oc- casional straw hat on a radical students head has suggested that this is Spring. To wear straw and be warm might be popular.
 The sun came out the day we. thought of trying the announce ment and it may come out again, against which event we can pro vide you with various shapes and designs and weights. Doubtless some kind of straw hat will be worn more or less this Summer.
