INVESTIGATION
Started to Clear Up What May Be
Murder Mystery.

Murder Mystery.
New York, April 26.-After an in
vestigation extending over ten days,
the police today arrested Gustav Le-
benz on suspicion of knowing the facts
in the tragic death of Theodore Won
Grofski, the young chemist, whose
body was discovered on April 16 in a
vat in the chemical department of the
Tartar Chemical Works, Brooklyn.
The young chemist disappeared after
having started on tour of inspection
of the vats of cream of tartar. His
body was discovered by fellow work
men many hours later, lying in the
bottom of a thousand gallon vat, the
flesh having been cooked and scalded
from the bleached skeleton. The po-
lice would not accept the theory that
through an accident the young man
fell into the boiling, seething mass of
acid, contending that he was thrown
in as the result of a quarrel.
Believing that Lebenz can throw
some light on the matter, he was to-
day arrested and will be held until the
investigation is completed.

May Become President
of Equitable Life
Society.
SAYS WOULD ACCEPT

Boston, Mass, April 26.-There is a
bare possibility that Lieut.. Gen. Mel
son A. Miles may become the presi-
dent of the Equitable Life Assurance
Society. This is the latest develop
ment in the discussion of the affairs of
that institution. The generals name
has been enthusiastically brought for
ward by many members OF the Boston
protective committee in their recent
conference, and 1t is believed that he
would be acceptable to the majority of
the policy holders, as we'll as to mem
bers of the management.
Gen. Miles, when questioned tonight
concerning the report, said:
SHOULD any circumstances result in
a vacancy, and should the presidency
of the Equitable Assurance Society be
rendered me, | should appreciate that
confidence. In such an event, every
energy and rule of integrity would be
devoted by me to the welfare of that
commendable enterprise for the bene-
fit of the policy holders, the stockhold-
ers and the general public"

WHAT STUDENTS SPEND.

Professor William B. Bailey Of Yale
university, whose research work in sta
tistics has made him well known
throughout the country, has just made
public in an article for The World To
day an interesting study of the expen-
ditures of college students at Yale,
grading the members of the junior
class two years ago and last year &C
cording to groups Of stated annual in
comes. That the figures are greatly to
the credit of the hard working young
man who has small income and who
has to work his way through college
may we'll be believed. The figpres tell
their own story. .+. .5 .. 49,
About $50 juniors were asked to hand
in reports Of their expenditures month
by month. From a statistical study of
that data Professor Bailey has evolv-
ed his article ""r','
The students were divided into five
groups, namely those who spend less
than $500 a year, those who spend be-
tween 5000 and $1,000, those who spend
between $1,000 and $1,5OO, those who
spend between $1,5OO and $4,000, and
those who spend more than $4,000 a
year.
Summarizing his deductions Professor
Bailey says in part:
Possibly the most strikink arrange
ment for the expenditures is made by
placing the amount spent on each of
the four principal divisions by the
poorest students at unity and arrang-
ing the other classes in terms of this,
The table then is as follows:

TO PLAY 1.-THE MAGISTRATE"


Yale initiative is manifested in divers
manners. The Dramatic association of
the university, instead of following in
the beaten track, asserts that it will
produce modern play, whose success
is known to the present generation by
an author who is commonly considered
among the foremost of living play
wrights, Arthur W. Pinero.
THE Magistrate" is, with Sweet La
vender," the best and most successful
of this uthor's works; in selecting it
the Yale association realized %exactly
both what the reputation of the play
and author demanded. 1t felt sure that
ats members would do justice to both
the literary and dramatic value of the
piece and that in presenting it the le-
Ultimate purpose of a college dramatic
association was strictly adhered to;
namely, to create and maintain an in
terest In the drama for the dramas
sske alone. 80.
After severe competition conducted
by John Malone, stage director of the
association, known to theatregoers
through the work he did In the support
of Henrietta Crosman and Modjeska in
their presentation of Shakespearean
plays, the cast was selected. 1t con-
taias the names Of many men previous
~ seen in Yale plays although the COM
petition was SO severe that many
dropped out. Buell. HOLSTER of New
York has the leading feminine role, as
he had for the past three years
Frame Brown of Columbus, o., is the
leading comedian. He has part this
spring which suits him far better than
any in which he has previously been
seen. Among the other men who have
leading parts are G. R. Hopkins Of
Philadelphia, +. H. Markoe Of New
York, r. G. Dobson of Providence, R. I.
The production this year will be
given in New York for the first time,
and IL any incentive was needed to
make the men work this furnishes it.
In preparation for this the cast has
been hard at work for the past month
with the result that the men have all
reached point of excellence that is
truly surprising. Mr.. Malone says that
the performance will far surpass that
of any that the association has previ-
ously given. & -.~& .....E
In New York the date Of the presen-
tation is April T. at the Carnegie Ly-
ceurn. J. B. Thomas, Jr., is the mana
ger for the performance there which
will be a pleasant break to the mid
Lenten season. In New Haven the
play will be seen at the Hyperion The
atre on the evenings of April 4 and 5!
Judging erom the sale of seats thus
far there will be crowded houses on
both nights The last rehearsal of the
cast was held Saturday in College street
hall. The thing went off without a
flaw. The men were given final in
structions by Mr.. Malone since the
dress rehearsal to be held tonight at
the theater will be conducted in the
manner Of regular rehearsal with the
musicians of the orchestra as an au-
+ dience. Everything is now ready for
tic presentation. The music for both

On Saturday the law on trout was
off and the fishing season was ushered

the water is high and cold and that
other conditions were not favorable the

A BEAUTIFUL HAND.
Care in Bathing and Use Of Emolli-
ent Creams Will Keep Them
in Good Condition.

A beautiful hand contains an ele.
ment OF fascination hat only a few
women attempt to develop; many a
one, in her quest for beauty. %overlooks
this source Of attraction entirely.
Queen Victoria was extremely proud
Of her exquisitely modelled hands, and
by her persistent care Of them was
noted for having the most youthful
hands Of any woman who had lived to
her advanced age.
The years leave their impress on
the hands quite as distinctly as on
the face. however these signs need
no appear so soon. and can be post
poned almost indefinitely.
Proper care in bathing and the use
OF emollient creams. when the veins
show too plainly on account Of the
thinness Of the hands, are important
points TO remember.
The American uses her hands TO en-
phasize her remarks, quite as charm
ingly and as often as her French sis
ter; therefore. she must take care to
be as famous for their general good
looks.
With the warm weather comes a
desire TO remove ones gloves at all
times. thus bringing the bare hands
into greater prominence in public
places. Never be guilty Of grimy
knuckles or nails in mourning" under
any circumstances.
1t is more difficult for those with a
tendency 10 moist hands TO keep them
in order than for those with dry skins.
Another set. who must use their hands
in work that roughens the skin. have
a great disadvantage TO contend with.
for the tiny PARTICLES raised on the sur
face catch and retain much dust. But
It Is possible for all to avoid this I'M
attractive condition by a little thought
and extra effort.

WHEN FEET ARE TENDER.
Bathing the Feet in Hot Water in
Which Soda Has Been Dis
solved, One Remedy.

Girls who serve In shops, and others
whose occupation keeps them on their
feet a great deal, often are troubled
with chafed. sore and blistered feet. no
matter how comfortably their shoes
may ft.
A powder used in the German army
for Sitting into the shoes and stock
ings Of foot soldiers is called "Fusstre-
upulver,' and consists OF three parts
OF salicylic acid. ten parts Of starch
and 81 parts pulverized soapstone.
Any chemist will make Il up for q
small sum, says the American Queen.
II keeps the feet dry, prevents chatting
and rapidly heals sore spots. Finely
pulverized soapstone only is very good.
When the feet merely ache. a very
useful remedy may be found in the fol-
lowing. Take a teaspoonful or ordi-
nary washing soda. dissolve it in half
a gallon OF warm water and battle the
feet in it for about half an hour. Re
peat this from time to time. A hot
water bath is also highly excellent for
tired feet.
