intelligent man is being held at the po-
lice station waiting word from his
house, the Gardner company of Boston,
which he represents. He was taken in
charge Saturday while acting queerly
On Second avenue. and when taken to
TIE police station he was unable TO tell
anything relating to his movements
during the past few days His mind
seems TO be almost a total blank so far
as the immediate past is concerned.
He can tell his name, knows what line
of work he is engaged in and can talk
nationally on some subjects. but his
memory of events of the last few days
is entirely gone. He claims that he
has been in a hospital but he cannot
remember the name of the institution
nor the city. He claims that he never
drinks to excess and that he has not
been seriously i'll as far as he knows.
He has lost all trace of his baggage
and does not even know at what hotel
he has been stopping in the three CT
ties.

"REMINISCENCES OF CUTTER
"Poct Lariat'' of .Innoceuts Abroad"
Who Wrote Rhymes.

As the original of the Poet Lariat'
of Mark Twain's ''IunocentS Abroad"
the late Bloodgood II. Cutter. the low
able old Farmer Poet Of Long Is
land" was placed among the i'm
mortais years ago, says the New
York Sun. His other claim to fame is
the collection of verses he has written
for many years, dOggerel fired at any
object in sight at the drop of the hat
and read with amusement all over the
country. Also there was q romance in
his life. but that happened so long ago
that few are left 10 tell of 1t.
y famous traveller and friend of
monarchs. he had filled the old Cutter
home at DOuglaston with interesting
memcntoes of his wandcrings. There
too. was Il collection Of one horse Shays
and other vehicles that antedated the
civil war by many years. and it was
amid these old relics of early days that
the farmer consciously or unconscious
~ added to the gaycty of things by
sending forth his verses.
Pens and ink were not necessary to
the poet. Even in the white heat of
anger he would stop to saddle Pegasus.
Only those who knew his thrftincsS
and frugality can appreciate his anger
when lie once discovered several small
boys stealing the Incompatible Cutter
apples Nevertheless. in the middle of
his wrath over the theft ne did not for
get his gift of poeSy. but Numbered
forth from the orchard fence these
memorable lines, of which lie was not
the author:
He who takes what is not his'n
Surely shall be sent To prison.
Disaster did not daunt him. On one
occasion the horse he was driving along
Long Island road grew skittish. The
ramshackle blackboard was too dcbili-
tated to stand the strain 10 which it
was being subjected, ana Just as Mr..
Cutter was passing 4 field in which
were working two German farm hands
the carriage broke down with crash.
From amid the wreckage of the old
blackboard the poet sang to the Ger
mans:
Here &C lovers Of saucrkraut.
Come here quick and help me out.
When Mr.. Cutter accompanied the
famous InnOcentS abroad he amused
the travellers during the journey by
reading nightly epics Oh anything that
had happened since the last effusion,
from peelinG potatoes to Il storm ut sea.
Twain offers this sample of the poet at
his best:

See good provisions We enjoy while We |

elaine of the estate against Messrs.

Mr. Voss. in making his application,
states that at the time he became

from all other sources. The total
amount of the estate at the time he
was made trustee should have been

ment on the part of the former trustee

rantee his $4,000 in cash from the

Had the evidence shown that HOff
mann equally feared Esberg and Ross,
and had seen both rushing on him at
the same time, the charge might have
been dismissed. But the state jumped
ON the fact that Hoffman, testified
that he did not see Ross until after he
had shot Esberg, and also that there
were 10 seconds. a quarter of a min

Fire at Orphans Home.-The state
of Iowa is poorer by nearly $4,000 as
the result of a fire at the Orphans
home on Saturday. The building used
as a carpenter and paint shop burned
to the ground with nearly all its con-
tents. The loss on the building is
from $4,000 to $1,000 and the con-
tents from $4,000 to $4,000. The loss
is total. for the state of Iowa carries
no insurance on any of its property.
1t was shortly after 2 O'Clock when
Cecil Williver. one of the young lads
residing at the home. discovered the
flames and gave the alarm. The home
maintains d fire department of its own,
and this soon had water playing upon
the blaze. But the facilities were not
sufficient to cope with such confla-
grafton, and a call was sent to the city
for help. Chief Stoltenberg responded
with three companies. What caused
the fire is not known. though sponta-
neous combustion may have been re-
sponsible. The fire started in the base
ment. but rapidly burnt its way up
ward. The oil house, which stood
close to the building. was also destroy
ed. The building was presented TO the
state by Baxter Whiting and was erect
ed i'll the summer Of 1898. 1t was OF
brick.

Special Cablegram to The Star.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
LONDON, November There is at pres
ent living in the st. Pancras Union In
Urinary in Gray's Inn road a venerable
lady, Mrs Sarah Lamb. who has just cele-
brated her 1O4th birthday. and is believed
to be the oldest subject of the king living
in the metropolis. She was born at Rams
gate and when little girl was brought to
London. where she has resided ever since.
Her most cherished recollections are that
she has seen five sovereigns who have
reigned in this country. AS a child she re-
members being told by her parents to
curtsey to George III as he passed through
merous opportunities of seeing George ",
William w and Queen Victoria, each of
which occasions she recalls clearly. When
the present king came to the throne" she
said, II was in the st. Pancras workhouse,
and not free to go where liked, but felt
that l must see him as l had seen all the
others. and so 1 got them to take me to
Buckingham palace in a cab, and saw the
king as he came out"
Mrs. Lamb married a pianoforte maker
who worked for a London firm and some
times for himself. and their married life,
extending over about fifty years. was. she
said very happy. They had several chill
dren, but they all died. and her husband,
passing away about thirty-five years ago,
she was left practically alone in the world.
