IT NEVER MOVED.
Lawyers, Ieamstsss and Pedestrians
 Rubbered at Wax FiSsss.

Those who are advocating the open air cure for consumption were respOn- sible to-day for many a joke on rub Der neck man and woman. They built canvas structure with the front side wide open and placing it On four sticks about six feet long planted it on the lawn of the Friendly league rooms on Ieavenw0rth street Stretched on two or three very comfortable looking chairp was young woman wrapped up with woOlen gloves on her hands and just her nose and eyes visible. Under this was large sign: Taking the open air cure for consumption"
 The strange looking structure and Uc- cupant was there when the lawyers were going 10 court this morning and to their surprise many of them found they had rubber necks. Teamsters stopped their wagons and looked iong and eagerly. pedestrians, messenger boys, everybody, men and women, stopped and gazed at the cage like af- fair and then would suddenly snicker to themselves and walk sheepisbly away. For in vain they looked for any signs of life from the blonde occupant of the cage who, by the way looked to be as healthy as it is possible to be in this New England climate. In vain they looked for the fair occupant was wax figure.

GREETED BY MOTHER.
Nan Patterson at Last Reaches Home
 at Washington.

Washington, May 13.-Nan Patter- son, accompanied by her father and Mr and Mrs J. Morgan Smith. arrived in Washington from New York at 7:2G o'clock this morning, and proceeded to the Patterson home on Columbia Heights, a modest two story cottage where they arrived in time for break fast
 A crowd awaited the arrival of the train at the Pennsylvania depot. After some minutes in the station, the sleep CT in which were the Patterson party, was withdrawn to a place on siding The car was soon surrounded by the crowd which as the delay continued, grew in size. It was announced that Miss Patterson had not completed her toilet. At o'clock Miss Patterson appeared from the stateroom she had occupied with her sister. The police pressed the crowd back while the party entered a carriage in waiting. As the door of the carriage slammed, the crowd, which had been silent, voiced it's approval in cheers. Miss Patterson was dressed in a new cos tune of blue. with hat to match, and looked well and refreshed by the good sleep she said she had enjoyed. AS she reached the car door her father, who was with her. said to a number of newspaper men on it's platform. This is Nan Patterson"
 "I can only say that am glad to see you. immediately responded Miss Patterson, "and that 1 am so glad tn get home."
 When the carriage reached the cor ner of the street adjacent to the Pat terson residence, the impatient gir could restrain herself no longer. She spranp from the vehicle and ran down the block, stopping to hug and kiss hei relatives as she met them on their way to meet her. She hesitated only long enough to briefly greet each in her hur' " to reach home. She disappeared through the door after running up the steps, with outstretched arms and the word mother on her lips.
 Mrs Patterson. who was prostrated tg the news of her daughters freedom yesterday. stood. supported by the arm of Der husband on the front yeranda and with tears of happiness glistening in her eyes and quiver of emotion ill her voice said. My daughter is with me now. All my children are home. am so happy"
 Na.l's father said that although many fiatterine offers of engagements had come to his daughter, none of them had been considered and none would be for some time. "She will re main at home and take good rest; after that she will take up the ques- lion of the future"

CONSIGNED TO JAPAN.

San Francisco, May 13-The Chroni- cle today says: There is over mil Ton dollars worth of munitions of war, contact explosive shells. unloaded. ly- ing on the wharf on the Oakland side of the bay. The shells are consigned 10 Kobe. Japan. but were made In Germany" The work of loading these shells began on two steamers. but was stopped to-day when the masters as- certained the character of their con signment.
 Many cars sealed. and in bond from New York. arrived at Long Wharf within the last week or so. They were loaded with strong iron bound wooden cases shipped from Hamburg fo Kobe. Japan. marked "E- NJ. F. H. H." and invoiced as manufactures of metal"
 When notified of the character of fhe goods he was loading the captain of the British steamer Heathdene sought the advice of the British consul MT Bennett sent yice-Consul Moore and the captain to the office of Collector of Customs Stratton for conference for the purpose of stopping the shipment of the shells. but this the collector de clined to do as their transportation was not a violation of the neutrality laws.

WILL REFUSE TO PAY
 THEIR WATER TAXES.
Real Estate Men Going to Make Test Case-An Injunc- ton Will be Issued to Prevent City From Shutting Of Water - Outcome Will be Watched With Interest

The Real Estate Owners associa- ton has decided to test the legality of the schedule of water rates and next Monday an injunction will be ap- lied for restraining the city from shut ting of the water from number of consumers who will appear as plain tiffs. Attorney Minor said to-day that he had been looking up how the schedule works and has discovered one case which is sufficient to satisfy him, and he thinks any judge will look at 1t as be does. that we should have more equitable adjustment Of the water question. The case he had ill mind was one where the consumer used something in the neighborhood of 100000 gallons of water, about 100000 of which cost only half a cent per one hundred gallons. Small consumers pay three cents for the same quantity. There is no bad feel ing in the thing at all and the only end the association has in view is to find out whether or not the city of Waterbury can legally do business that way. Everybody admits that there is no fairness in the water de partment so far as the price of the article is concerned, but even at that it seems pretty hard to get anybody to take the initiative in the making of change. and probably it is well that the real estate men took hold of it. The legality of the case can be deter mined with one consumer as com plainant as well as more. so that there is no need of looking for a great number. The matter could also be thrashed out by having somebody pay under protest and then sue for a re- turn of the money. but the counsel for the defendants have decided to try the injunction proceedings.

ORDERLY KILLED HIS
 SUPERIOR OFFICER.
Vice Admiral Nazto Was Instantly Killed in His Room Funeral of Lieut. Creschuer Who Was Murdered at Midnight Thursday Was Held To-Day-Inscrip- ton on Coffin Plate.

St Petersburg, May 13.-Sice-A Ad- miral Nazitoff was shot and killed by m orderly in his room to-day. The orderly fired three shots from a re vOlyer at the admiral. The crime is attributed to the anger of the murderer at his dismissal from his duties as or derly and being ordered to proceed to the front
 St Petersburg. Ma 13.-The danger Of serious complications over the ques- ton of French neutrality is regarded ns over for the present Throughout there has been disposition to make allowance for irritation manifested by Japan in the desire to safeguard her interests at time when the future of the war is staked upon the issue of the coming naval battles. Neyerthe- less her willingness to assume a men acing attitude towards France upon the strength of the British alliance is regarded as being an eye opener for the powers. Despite the provocative tone of the British press, however. the British government used it's influence at TOkio in a pacific direction.
 nOWefeE. lut udIsH iuiu&S Soiu OA both Franch and Russia in the British papers have so far as the Russian pub lic is concerned, served to still further infame the feeling of hostility against Great Britain, which has always been regarded as Russia's arch enemy. Premier Balfour's speech in the house of commons May Il, on the defense of India. from this standpoint, came at a particularly inopportune time. and the comments of some of the American papers which have been cabled here have also aroused some resentment. The Novoe Vremya announces that the incident is closed, adding:
 Japan wished to dictate to France in order to seal the union with Great Britain and then have in her pocket the apple of discord of Paris for use in later attack on Indo-China. Now if instead of bombardments and em- bargos Japan has been ready to ac- cepf from France the statements con talned in the yellow book. it is reason able to infer that Great Britain has given Japan to understand that she does not care to rush into war with France. After all the incident was only a tempest in a teapot"
