e. H. WOOD SURRENDERS.
SAYS HIS MIND rs BLANK.
MotiUe for Killing Watchung Grocer
Is Not KnOWn.

Declaring he wanted to surrender himself be-
cause he had heard he wanted by the
police Of Plainneld for the murder of George
Williams. the Watching grocer in a sleigh on
the outskirts of Warrenville Thursday after
noon, George H. Wood, twenty years old, an
ironworker Of No 576 West 131st-st went last
night 10 the police station in West 20th-st.
Wood said his memory was more or less of a
blank regarding what had happened to him or
where he had been for nearly a week When
the New-YoIk police got in touch with the
Plainfeld authorities by telephone. however,
they learned what assured them Wood was
the man who. the police of the latter place as
sert. started on the sleigh ride which ended in
the grocer's death.
Wood was accompanied TO the West 20th-st.
station by his wife and the Iatter's brother,
John Bischoff. of No AS West 27th-st Wood
had been in Bischoff's house, where his wife
and three children had been staying for several
days
When Wood was taken TO the detective bu-
reau at Police Headquarters. Chief of Police
Kiely. of Plainfeld, was reached by telephone.
He said the man in custody. from the descrip-
tton, was the wanted, he thought. The
only discrepancy was the absence of any mus
tache Wood. but his lip showed evidence
of having beer freshly shaved. Wood will be
held in Police Headquarters pending the az
rival Of Chief Kie;y this morning
Wood told the police he left this city on last
Monday with man named Mack. man he
had worked for in the iron business. He said
their destination was to be Scarsdale. Penn,
where Mack was to start him in business. Mack
having given him 81 900 to that end.
Wood says he remembers scarcely anything
more Whether they were in Scarsdale or not,
he says he doesn't know. nor does he know
what became of the $1,000 or Mack. He says
he has an impression he was in Trenton and in
a junction in New-Jersey, possibly Monmouth
Junction, but he is not sure about it. He says
quite positively he not in PIainfeId.
Wood says ne returned TO New-York and
Joined his wife and children in Bschoff's home
on Thursday afternoon. but Mrs. Wood and her
brother say that Wood did not appear until
Yesterday. When the police asked him what
had become of his valise and slouch hat Wood
said he had lost them. The fact thai the
Plainfeld police say that the stranger who
companied Williams on the ride which ended in
the latter's death left vaIise and hat behind
him is regarded significant
Bischof told the police that before Wood was
accompanied to the West 20th-st station by
him and Mrs. Wood. the three went TO Dr.
Hall, Of West 2Sth-st., who examined Wood
with view to determining his mental condi-
ton. DR.. Bali said. according TO Bischoff. that
Wood showed signs of having been under
the influence Of drug. his relatives had
surmised. did it appear that he had been
drinking. The physicians opinion, however,
was that Wood was not mentally normal

THE FISH "MAC" CAUGHT

They tell the story on E. g.
Mcdonald, and it runs something
like this:
When Mr.. Mcdonald was a
resident of St. Paul, he often
purchased fish caught below a
dam in the Mississippi river.
On one occasion, after "Mac"
had purchased some fish caught
from a small river tributary to
the "t'ather of Waters" and also
some taken from the river where
the dam was located, he was in,
formed that ST. Paul preacher
would take dinner at his house
and that he would be called upon,
as usual, to edo the honors. :"
The girl was asked what would
be served for dinner, and she
stated that she had quite a string
of small river fish and several
larger ones from the dam. 'sI'm
not much on doing the honors
wnen we have a minister at the
table," said b. r., "but, but I
guess we can get through with
it, all right. =
Half an hour later, they were
seated at the table, and a blessing
had been asked by the minister.
A little nervously, the head of the
family began dishing out the
vegetables, and turning to the
guest, asked: "Will you have
some of the little river fish, or
would you prefer some of the
dam big fish," The warning sick
under the table from his wife
was unnecessary. He knew be
had Numbered, and cold beads Of
perspiration started out on his
forehead. II mean" trying to
repair the error, twill you have
some of the dam river fish or
some of the big fish?'' Worse
and more Of il. The servant girl
pulled his coat tail, to bring him
to an u Understanding of the situa-
ton. ''That is, would you like
some Of the river fish or some of
the other dam fsh?'' The deep
carnation spreading over the
good lady's face didn't mend
matters a bit, and with a gasp,
"Mac" plunged in once more:
"Ahem. Which Of the dam fish
do you prefer, anyhow
It is not related that b. B. was
elected a deacon at the next meet

Cheated Death.
Kidney trouble often ends
fatally, but by choosing the right
medicine, B. Fl. Wolfe, of Bear
Grove, Iowa, cheated death. He
says: 1.-TWO years agoI had kid
ney trouble, which caused me
great pain, suffering and anxiety
but I took Electric Bitters, which
effected a complete cure. I have
also found them Of great benefit
in general debility and nerve
trouble, and keep them constant
