LEFT THEIR MAID IN PAWN
For Unpaid Hotel Bill and Fitted Maid Has
One Arrested for RObblDx Her.

Florence Scott, who says that she is Fl
years old and lives at go West Forty fifth
street, was arrested last night by Detec-
tives Leahey and Sheehan of the Central
Office charged with being implicated in
the theft Of seven French bonds and s75
in cash.
The complainant is Mary Giles, a maid
in the employ of a Mrs. GLASGOW, with
whom Miss Scott had lived in the Welling-
ton Hotel, Fifty-ffth street and Seventh
avenue. Il was learned from the manager
of the Wellington that early in October
Mrs. GLASGOW came to the hotel and en-
gagged a suite of rooms for herself, Miss
Scott and the maid, Mary Giles.
Mrs. GLASGOW did not pay her bills and
when the manager asked for money she
said she had had trouble with her husband
but that a settlement was about to be made
and she would make good. On December
Ia she informed the manager that she was
going out Of town and wanted a smaller
room for her maid, who would stay at the
hotel until her return.
Then she and Miss Scott left. After a
week had passed and Mrs. GLASGOW did not
put in an appearance the maid told the
manager that the women had taken her
seven bonds and SIS with them.
Miss Scott was arrested at the Forty-fifth
street address, which is a boarding house.
According to the people at the house Miss
Scott engaged a room there two weeks ago.
Shortly afterward a Miss Roland, who
the police say il Mrs. GLASGOW, also got a
room. They said they were friends

FOUND AN INFERNAL MACHINE.
sherir Flynn Discovered It and Touched
the Spring, but the Bullet Missed Him.

CANANBAIoUA, N. Y, Dec. s0.--A mar
row escape from killing himself or some
body else with an Internal machine was
the experience OF Sheriff Francis Flynn Of
this place to-day. The machine was dis
covered in the pocket of an overcoat which
was found last week by the Sheriff. who
was looking for Franklin A. Booth in Ge-
neva. He found his man, but Booth
managed to escape after an exciting chase,
and the coat was found on the course over
which he had fed.
The Sheriff took the coat home and it
was laid aside without examination till
Saturday night, when Sheriff Flynn found
a small and peculiar looking article. It
was little steel cylinder about four inches
long and nickel plated. A steel ring en-
circled the middle of the tube and was used
to work a spring inside. There was hole
at one end of the cylinder and a rubber
bulb at the ober.
The Sheriff in his investigation OF the
peculiar object turned it over and over.
peered into the hole and endeavored to
work the spring number of times. Finally
he touched the spring. Fortunately he
did not happen to be looking in the hole
at the time and no one was near or there
would have been a sadder end to the story.
As it was, bullet was shot out of the tube
past the Sheriff's head and was imbedded
in the wall IL was dug out, and was found
to At a 81 calibre shell.
The simple looking cylinder was pistol
which could easily be concealed in the
hand, and nothing like it has ever been
seen by any Of the officers Of this place
or by two Pinkerton men from Buffalo,
who have examined it and say that they
never saw anything like it before. Mr.
Flynn is receiving the congratulations of
his friends over his lucky escape.

to remain in these parts at least ten
days; also that we be permitted to
arrange his dates in this vicinity. We
will guarantee that he will be intro
dueed in at least the following places:
Kendall, Maiden, Gilt Edge,
Moore, Garniell, Utica and Stanford.
If he could be spared two weeks we
would be very much pleased, as the
above places number nine dates, and
we want him in Lewistown at least
twice. Ben is personal friend Of
mine and I am ashamed to work him
as hard as the limited time of ten days
would necessitate in getting over the
above mentioned territory. Try and
give him to us for two weeks. We
think we have the nucleus of a strong
party vote here this fall, and we are
anxious to do things right in order to
extend the great message to the people
hre in these parts. We have solemnly
