HAD WORKED FOR ROOSEVELT
Tom Dwyer Former Empoye of Pres

Disturbing the Peace

Special to The Herald.
WALLACE. idaho, Jan. 2O.-T. F..
Dwyer an old time in the Coeur
d Alenes, and once ranch hand un-
der Theodore Roosevelt in Dakota,
was arrested charged with disturbing
the peace and fined S. and costs by
Police Judge Whalen. Mr.. Dwyer be-
came intoxicated last night and in that
condition went home. He Immediately,
it is said began to make things un-
pleasant for Mrs. Dwyer, who finally
was forced to seek safety in flight.
MIR. Dwyer was once cook on Theo-
dore Roosevelt's ranch and became in
timately acquainted with the future
president. When Mr.. Roosevelt was in
Wallace in 1903 he saw Mr.. Dwyer on
the street and Immediately recognized
him. The president ordered the car
riage in which he was riding stopped
and, rising from his seat, said: Hello,
there, old Tom Dwyer."

the long dingy corridors, while sundry
sounds come from the basement al
the most unseemly hours.
Among those who have found the
conditions too phantom-like are the
Mitchells, negro performers at the
Orpheum this week. They have feared
to remain there at night and yester-
day gave up their rooms. Mrs. Mitchell
says one of the phantoms took hold
of her while she was walking upstairs
with her little girl.
Il had heard these stories about the
ghosts but placed little credence in
Them" said Mrs. Mitchell. "Then one
night l heard strange noises That
and then we didn't stay there any
longer at night. Once, though. when
was walking up the stairs from the
basement something grabbed me by
the shoulders. I turned about but
could see nothing. 1 tainted when I
reached the top of the stairs. wouldn't t
remain in the house another minute" T"
Asked about the ghost stories,
Mitchell said:
THE colored folk there at the house
tell me there are ghosts of bodies
that were brought in there some years
ago for dissecting purposes and have
never been removed"
Asked whether he still roomed there,
Mitchell calculated:
well, / should say not"
Mrs. Lizzie Young, who conducts the
hotel said that the ghost stories had
originated with the children.
There are no ghosts here; don't
worry" she said.
But the Mitchel1s cling to their
belief

KANSAS CITY, Jan. 20.-Ghosts,
awful and fear inspiring, have invaded
a hotel conducted for negroes at the
corner of Seventh and Washington
streets. At least that is the assertion
made by those that have lived there.
The phantoms have not only been
present in the material self but strange
noises have been heard throughout the
night and fear has overcome part Of
the negro population of Kansas City.
The place in question is the Almo
hotel. Years ago it was part of the
establishment of medical college and
it is said that dead bodies We're brought
in there by the score to be operated
upon by young medical students. This
is what causes all the CONSERVATION at
this time. Some of the boarders de-

TALK NEARLY KILLS POLLY
Central Park Parrot Finds She Cannot
Talk and Eat at the Same
Special to The Herald.

GpUCIdI 10 7 IIC IltTdIU,
NEW YORK. Jan. 20.-That it is
impossible to eat and talk at the same
time was proven yesterday to the sat
isfaction of Clara, Il parrot in the men
agerie in Central park, when she al
most choked to deathe on a kernel of
corn.
1t has been her favorite recreation
to catch in her mouth corn thrown by
visitors while she was carrying on a
conversation. When she tried to swal-
low two kernels yesterday while gos-
siping she met with misfortune. Her
flow of words suddenly ceased as she
fell over. After apparently suffering
severe pain she swallowed the food.
She did not again try to eat and talk
at the same time.

PR0FANE PARROT "PINCHED"
East Orange Policeman, InsuIted and
Wounded, Takes cuIprlt Into
Custody
Special to The Herald.

special TO Inc Herald.
EAST ORANGE, n. j., Jan. 2O.-The
East Orange police have in custody
the most troublesome prisoner they
have had to deal with in a long time.
He was captured this morning in Will
lam street by Patroman Flannery,
who succeeded in landing him at police
headquarters only after a struggle in
which the officer sustained wounds
which will mark him for some time
to come. The prisoner is charged with
using profane language.
AS Flannery was patroling in Will
lam street the following salutation, ut
tered in harsh voice, met his ears:
"B'See, you think you're the SWEETEST
ever"
Flannery stopped and looked around
for the supposed impudent small boy.
"Aw, run along; don't stop to rub
ber," added the voice. which Flannery
this time traced to a large bush on a
