NEW TROUBLE FOR COL. W. o. MANN.

Col. w. D. Mann, of Town Topics fame, who
figured in the news dispatches very prominently
for considerable period has a new trouble
to deal with in connection with Tom Watson's
Magazine.
1t will probably be surprise to many people
to learn that Col Mann is in any way interested
in the publication which bears the name of the
Populst leader and philosopher. Col Mann is
the chief stockholder in the magazine of which
Mr.. Watson is the editor, and he and Mr. Watson
had dispute about money due for editorial serv
ices When Mr. Watson asked for money Col
Mann criticised the magazine. Mr.. Watson found
himself helpless in a fight with Mann, for the
colonel had the advantage of majority Of own
ership of the stock, while Mr.. Watson owned only
about one-fifth.

Alexander Hamilton, who proposed the establish

similar in constitution to the Bank of England

Edmund Randolph, and when taken into court

Acrobat Lands Safely After Clever
Leap OFF His Bicycle and
Quick Turn In Air

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, April 29.-Because Of
his ability to turn somersault, or
"f1ipfap," under almost any conditions,
Alfred Leakleky, an acrobat of 215
West Thirty-eight street, was able
to escape without Hinjury of any kind
in head-on collision last night be-
tween his bicycle and an automobile.
His bicycle was wrecked, but the ac-
robat escaped without even a scratch.
Leakleky was riding on the east side
of Broadway, at Fifty-eighth street,
and attempted to cross the street in
front of an automobile owned and
operated by John D. Prince of 1865
Broadway. Both men at first mis-
judged the distance, and then as
quickly saw that a collision was in
evitable. Prince threw on his emer-
gency brake, while the acrobat, not
willing to take any chances, did a half
back somersault off his bicycle, land
ing safely on his feet, clear of the
path of the oncoming automobile. The
bicycle struck the front of the auto
mobile glancing blow, Topped over,
and was run over by the machine.

Special Cable to The Herald.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, April 20
A municipal candy company, the new
est thing in the municipal ownership
line, is being seriously considered in
Philadelphia. Something has to be
done to stop the school children from
eating the highly colored and indigesti-
BILE candies that venders sell to the
pupils before and after school and at
recess.
Many of the children are Ill as a re-
sult of eating this candy. Director of

colored confectionery and the board of
education has taken up the matter.
The municipal candy company seems
to be the only solution of the problem.

SAN BERNARDINO, April 29.-Re-
ports from the mountains indicate that
the apple crop in this section is
badly injured and possibly entirely
ruined. A majority of the trees were
in full bloom when the snowstorm OF
Friday night came. The temperature
has ranged as low as twenty-eight de-
grees, which without doubt will be dis"
astrous to the fruit trees.
The snowfall is the heaviest of the
season in the mountains and q heavy
storm so late in the season is almost
unprecedented in this section. Noun
tain roads are almost impossible from
the heavy snow.
