THREE KINDS OF BENEFAC-
 HONS.

Some people when they have done anything for others are prone to keep an account of favOrs conferred and to regard the persons benefited as in their debt for the action to such and such an extent. Others are not quite so practical and exacting, but still they keep before the minds the fact that they have aided certain persons

A POSSIBLE MURDER-It was ru-

mored on the streets today that James
 Durnal, formerly constable in Douglas, had been murdered near the city or Chihuahua, Mexico. No Veriticauon or
 the rumor was possible, however, and
 it may be a. canard. It is said that the
 account of his death was published in tbe Cananea Herald last week, but this Is a mistake so far as the edition which
 was sent to Douglas is concerned. It may be- however, that a later edition
 of the Cananea weekly contained the story.

martial proceedings in the trial OF
Midshipman Maner Merriweather. Jr.,
on three charges, connected with the
death of Midshipman James r.
Branch. with whom he was engaged in
a fist fight, began this morning at the
naval academy.
Most Of the testimony Of this morn
ing had direct bearing on the chargs
that Merriweather had called Branch
sneak and coward or words to that
effect. During the course Of the evi-
dence the fact of the existence Of a
"code," body Of laws outside and
contrary to the regulations Of the in
stitution, was clearly established. A
notable incident, which occurred just
at the beginning OF the trial, was the
objection made by counsel for defense
to Commander Sidney A. Staunton as
member of the court, on the ground
that he had expressed an opinion that
Merrfweather should be dismissed from
the Academy and sustaining Of the
objection on the part Of the court.

Since the publication in the T.-R.
that the governor has materially cut
down the printing bill Of the state by
eliminating chapters from the reports
of state officials, some of the en1-

ured out that the governor had made
his salary for this year in the saving on
the printing bill alone. And the gov

that there is still more room for
great deal of improvement.
Curator Aldrich of the historical

which he believes should best serve the

SOCIETY MAN a BURGLAR.
Elite Of Elizabeth, N. j., Shocked by
Sensational Arrest.

New York, Nov. 22.-The arrest ana
confession of Alfred P. Smalley at
Elizabeth, N. j., have given society
in that city q shock and people OF
Bayonne and Clayton something to
gossip about for some time to come.
Smalley has admitted to the police that
he has lived in great part for five or
six years by burglaries at night While
he was conducting himself as an up
right business man by day.
With the name Of Smalley is asso-
ciated that Of Mrs. Lewis G. Ford, a
young 11atron well known in Eliza beth,
but the police, unable to show thai
Mrs. Ford was an acccmplics. OF
Smalley, say She must have been an
innocent victim and attributed thu, fact
to her blind infatuation for the man.
Her husband, a well-to-do stationer,
agrees with the police. He says ne
knows his wife has been on intimate
terms with Sma1ley several years, al
though he had never seen the man.
A week ago when a neighbor told him
that Smalley was under police suryeil-
lance and that he had seen the man
many times in the last few months
going in or coming out OF the Ford
home, Ford hurried home, found that
his wife was out and in her absence
he broke open large trunk OF hers
which she had been careful never to
leave unlocked. He found in 1T a large
quantity of silver and many pieces OF
jewelry, but none of great value. !.
.As soon as my wife came home" ;"
said Ford yesterday, I confronted her
with the discovery. She confessed that
everything in the trunk had been given
to her by Smalley in August st the
time he was moving his family from
Bayonne to Clayton, with a request
that she should take care Of 1t for him
and that she had no suspicion he came
by 1t dishonesty. My wife gave the
same explanation to the police and
made no objection when turned the
silver and jewelry over to them.
'.I have suspected for long time
that my wife was not conducting her.
self properly. but had no evidence to
prove 1t. Her absences from home be-
came more and more frequent and she
would never give me any satisfactory
explanation of them. In the face Of
developments have decided to sue for
a divorce"
According to his confession smalley
has been at Raff1es for at least five
years. Until recently he was a sales
man TO ra large meat packing house at
a salary Of $50 a week and expenses
He comes Of family which has dwelt
in and around Clayton, N. j., for a
century or more.

considered for the craftsmanship Of the
board Of trustees Of the Mutual Life
Insurance Company. with the object In
view Of making him president eventu--

as possible, but this bare fact leaked
out and was traced to an apparently
authoritative source. It is under
stood that the course Of procedure will
be the same as that followed in the
case of Paul Morton, who was chosen
chairman and then elected president
Of the Equitable. The selection of Mr..
Morton is credited to Mr.. Ryan, who

Ewes Of All Russia Turned to
Moscow Where the Zemstyo
Congress Has Assembled
LOOKS LIKE a DISAGREEMENT
Not Unlikely That . Resolution for
support Of the Premier on Certain
Conditions, Including univsrsaI suf.
trace, viii be Mads--Witte Likely to
Make Concessions.

ST. Petersburg, Nov. 22.-All eyes
continue to be riveted on Moscow,
where the struggle in the zemstvo
congress on the question Of supporting
Premier wftte is continuing. Some OF
che most poverful men In the congress
are urging the necessity for rallying
Z moderate sentiment in support of the
government, but the irreconcilable
radical element appears to make q
split inevitable. Should the resolution
to support the premier be carried, 1t
seems almost certain that 1t will be
coupled with conditions. The idea Of
constituent assembly seems to have
been abandoned, but not the demand
for universal suffrage to which the
premier is likely to yield.
The only direct proposition thus far
before the congress is Prince Dolgor-
oukoffs plea for the support Of the
government 30 long AZ It follows the
principles OF the constitutional regime
But a section under the leadership
'iof M. Roberti insists that portfolios
be given to men known to be In SYM
pathy with the cause Of freedom, uni
versal suffrage and immediate trial
and punishment Of all officials guilty
OF connection with the recent nassa-
cres Russ declares that the liberals
who are being blamed for not support
ing the government are totally misun-
derstood abroad, where Count sWitte
is regarded as the savior or Russia

LODGES INTERESTED
Supreme Court Of Missouri to Determ-
inc Case Of Great importance TO the
FraternaI Organizations in the Unit
ed States.

jefferson City, Mo-, Nov. 22.--In the
supreme court en- banc today, the case
of Mary L. westerman and others vs..
the supreme lodge Knights of .Pythias
was argued and submitted. This case
involves the application Of the principle
of extended insurance to the benefit
certificates Of fraternal orders and
practically involves in it's detnrmina-
tion, the life of fraternal organi cations.
The contention Of counsel for flaternal
orders is the application of the ex-
tended insurance principle to the busi-
ness of the organizations they repre-
sent will spell ruin to them. It will
probably be some weeks before de-
cision is handed down.
