"Lady" and Woman"

AS to the rather subtle question of

he be, for the purpose OF the conversa-

Who ever asked, on hearing that a
friend was to marry, "Who is the wo-

woman at dinner who told us so-and-
SO. But introduce the adjective, and
the '1ady" is at once pretty woman,
well-dressed woman, rather a dull

Albany, N. Y, April 3.-Superin-

the Equitable Life Assurance Society
The examination will begin tomor-
row" said Mr. Hendricks today, "and
will be conducted at the request of
both President Alexander and Vice
President Hyde. l received Mr.. Alex
ander's request before Mr.. Hyde's."
Governor Higgins. when asked
tonight concerning the examination
of the society's affairs said: Both
Mr. Alexander and Mr.. Hyde have re-
quested that an examination of the
Equitable society's affairs be made by
superintendent Hendricks so that the
poliCy-holders can be assured as to
the condition of the company.
Il have known Mr.. Hendricks long
enough and well enough to know that
he is thoroughly competent to con-

will be a thorough honest and proper
one"
Questioned as to the probability of a
legislative investigation of the COM

he believed the insurance department
more competent to make such an ex-
animation than a committee of the
Legislature, as the department. has in
it's employ men skilled in insurance

CHARGE OF ASSAULT
Placed AesInstl lci1drieajw.t Baker by
Allen Cook
Allen Cook

Alien COOK.
Charles w. Baker, a local insurance
agent, will have a hearing before
Mayor Smith within short time on a
charge preferred against him by Allen
Cook, real estate agent and attorney.
Cook claims that Baker assaulted
him with the intent to kill. Baker,
whose case is in the hands of Attorney
Rice, is now out under S400 recog-
nizance bond until the time of the
hearing is set. 1t appears that Cook
has owed Baker a sum OF money
which he was somewhat delinquent in
paying. When Baker approached Cook
on the matter words were passed, and
it is said Baker struck his debtor,
telling him to the ground. Cook then
secured some bricks to protect him
self, but outside parties then inter-
fered. The rumpus took place in front
of the Mckinley Home Confectionery
store.

Railway Travel In France.

On the principal railways of France
the traveller finds his train to the left
hand set of rails. This Is what he is
used to in England; but when he
emerges from the station and takes
a tram car or cab he find his ve-
hicle and all others inclining to the
right. When he comes into Germany
he finds trains rigidly keeping to the
right like road vehicles. Why is the
difference, asks an English traveller.
In France the railway was not de-
yeloped from the colliery tramway as
this had been from the plank road, but
was imported from England and with
IT the left-hand direction. Once set
tied the railways have stayed So
with flavor Of the exotic about them

MANY RUM0RS
About the Bandit Gang at Alliance,
Ginsuard Hearing.

Leo Ginguard, one of the parties in
jail in connection with the recent
holdups and burglaries in Alliance,
will have his hearing on Thursday.
Mayor Walker of Alliance was in Can
ton yesterday but like all other Off
cials connected with the unearthing OF
the gang over there, is very reticent.
1t is reported that when the case is
heard and full revelation made that
there will be some big sensations de-
veloped that may compromise many
prominent people in the east end city.
These charges are go vague and hard
to verify that there may be no founda-
tion for them. yet they recur almost
every time the subject is mentioned in
certain quarters.
The Alliance people yesterday re-
ported that quite lot of property said
to belong to the Morgan Engineering
works and the Alliance Machine COM

THE PRESIDENT
ON HIS VACATION
GREETED EVERYWHERE BY EN-
THUsIASTIC CROWDS.
Is Having a jolly Good Time and
Proposes to Enjoy Himself to
the Utmost.

Johnstown Pa, April 3.-(On board
President Roosevelt's special train.)
President Roosevelt is entering on
his vacation with a speech at each
station where there is a sop of at least
five minutes. He has insisted upon
leaving the rear platform and ming
ling with the crowd, shaking hands
and chatting with those who come
to greet him. He jokes and laughs
with them. At every stop there is a
large crowd TO greet him.
At Altoona the crowd was largely
made up of railroad employees and their
families and these he greeted cordially
and even familiarly, urging them in a
laughing manner to come one at a
time, not to squeeze his hand too hard
and not block the way for others. One
old veteran of the Civil war said: Il
know he is good fighter, but cannot
say whether he is good talker."
The president did not set the implied
doubt at rest, but contented himself
with bowling and smiling to the cheer
ing crowds. The train pulled out of
the station amid repeated hurrahs for
Teddy.
Al Horseshoe Bend some twenty
minutes ride from Altoona the train
was halted for a minute at the opening
of the pass and the whclc party got off
to be photographed. Here again the
president gave vent to his jovial
mood, cautioning Photographer Stroh-
meyer to be sure and get Secretary
Loebs cap in first.

erected for the purpose of renting and
are being speedily taken. Rents
here for dwellings range from SIC

TEACHING TO pEFRAUD.
How Warren, Ohio, Man Worked a
Neat Scheme.

Neat Scheme.
E. Frank HOgner, the Warren, O.,
man who was recently arrested for
using the mails to defraud, for s.
gave the following plan to beat the
railroad companies out of their fares /:
Work the scheme on fast through
trains, for there it is certain to work.
Enter the coach and drop your coat
and sachtel into a seat in the front
of the car. Watch for the conductor
in the coach ahead and then step into
the layatory and stand directly behind
the door, but do not lock the door.
The conductor, after entering the
coach, invariably opens the layatory
door and closes it without looking in.
Be very careful to stand so that if the
conductor opens the door very wide it
will strike the stop. This always
gives a man space to stand without
the door touching him.
THE conductor passes on, check
ing up his train. When sufficient
time has elapsed for the conductor
to get through the coach or almost
through the coach you simply walk
out quietly, drop into your seat and
remain there.
"The conductor never checks up his
train on returning to the front. It is
well on the long run, after you have
allowed the conductor to pass you in.
cidentally to meet him and ask him
concerning some connection. This is
done in order to give the conductor
an opportunity to become familiar
with your face, which afterward
would assure him that you had come
from a, point way back"

state that it .worled to perfection,
