UNEARTHED BY sEARcHERs.
Rare Treasure Left by a Woman Re
cluse-Eortune Of $4,000.

For many years Miss Frances Caroline
Robinson lived on the outskirts of Hudson.
N. Y. and although it was known that she
had income sufficient to provide her
with a living, no supposed that the
creepy looking old house which set back
from the road In a clump of trees was a
real treasure truve. Since her death an
amount close to $4,000 has been unearthed
by searchers employed by the executor.
Smith Thompson, who Is the president Of
the Farmers Bank here.
Now everybody is remarking that it is
wonder that the woman was not robbed.
Miss Robinson, who led the life Of re-
cluse. died last month alone, her body be-
ing found several days afterward lying at
the head OF the STAIRWAY. The coroner
gave death certificate, saying heart dis
ease. coupled with senility. was the cause
of death.
She was spinster about seventy years
old. and since the death OF her sister had
lived alone in the old-time family mansion,
cay. Those who casionally visited at the
house knew that the rooms were heaped
with valuable antiques and furnishings.
Miss Robinson's father was Alexander
Robinson, a transatlantic merchant. Upon
each return voyage Capt. Robinson would
bring back many curios, and, as a result.
these collected until the house was filled
with rare and valuable china, furniture
and ornaments. But there was no mystery
about these, for the ornaments were all
in sight.
The estate was thought to be small be-
fore the hidden wealth was revealed. When
q search OF the house was. made packages
of bills, covered with buttons and spools
OF thread, were found at the bottoms of
Jars. In many instances they were tied
up In bundles Of rags and wrapped so close
~ that only the most careful search re-
Sealed them.
The gold and silver coins were OF rare
variety. Much OF the gold was of the date
OF the reign Of King George III. while In
oliver there was Spanish money dating back
TO 1871. These, like the bills were hidden in
all parts of the house and In jars, dishes
and workbaskets and pitchers.
Thirteen years ago Miss Robinson made
her will. By II she distributed her estate
ia equal shares to the American Seaman's
Friend Society. the American Bible Society,
the American Tract Society and the Home
for the Aged IN Hudson.
The finding Of the hidden treasure will
cause contest OF the WILL She was an

Boy Charged with Murder Of Fath.r.

Fifteen-year-old Edgar W. Nickel is un-
der arrest at Lynn. Mass. charged with
the murder OF his father. Charles 8. Nickel.
The elder Nickel died on November 6, 1905.
His body was found at his home with a
bullet wound in the head. and the medical
examiner returned a verdict OF suicide.
This superstition was strengthened by the
fact that Nickel had been in poor health

end his life.
The police found that the man and his
son had quarreled in the afternoon before

nothing more than repeat my words of last
night, IN so far as the average American Is
disposed toward alcohoi-commerce. You
W2shingtonians know well the greatness
OF the evil, and you should never rest mo-
ment from combating it. You do not know
what 1t is. because you do not see the
heartrending and disgraceful pictures of
back-street life, the pictures that are seen
only by men who are interested In the wei
fare of the world
ITO me these sad sights are common. l
see them almost every day, and that is why
you find me so strongly opposed to drinks
which contain alcohol"
After describing certain conditions as had
been presented to him during the course
of his travels, Mr. Smith portrayed An In
terview With the Drink Fiend." This topic,
in reality was the tmpersonation of
drunkard, and in portraying it Mr.. Smith
revealed himself to be a capable actor. The
language he used was couched in the terms
used by drunkards, containing boasts ana
irrelevant topics at the same time
Reproves Congress.
You cannot fight US, nor the saloonkeep-
ers, said Mr.. Smith, among other things,
in Interpretation of the part. Congress
permits it, and the saloons are the main
stay of corrupted politics. Churchmen can
not bother with us, either. They have no
power do do US harm. because there is
framed the government license in each bar
which permits it, Nothing can harm that
which the government sanctions"
Sunday night at his lecture there We're
present several saloenkeepers. with their
families, who had come to hear what Mr..
Smith had to say in condemnation of their
trade. Mr.. Smith learned of their presence
after the lecture was over and determined
to call upon them last night. From the
platform he asked that any saloonkeepers
present get up and speak for themselves.
None did so, but, according to those best
informed, 1t was believed that none was
present, Monday night being busy night
Mr.. Smiths lectures are regarded as es-
pecially convincing. The local prohibition
circles are greatly gratifed with the success
attending his labor
The third lecture will be given by him to-
night at Metropolitan NJ. e. Church, Az
and c streets northwest. at 7:45 pm. Two
subjects will he given, The Great Strug-
gle" and Tug of War between the tenn
perance party and the liquor traffic.
