CUT NEAR HEART,
CRIME SUSPECTED
Police Doubt Lusby's Story
of Tripping and Stabbing
Himself.

Charles A. Lusby. a photographer.
twenty-three years Of age, was taken
to the Emergency Hospital last night
about 9 o'clock suffering from a wound
near the heart. The police OF the Fourth
precinct are puzzled by the explanation
given by Lusby. and an investigation is
being conducted.
When brough to the hospital. Lusby
said that he had been "fooling with his
wife and his brother-in-law. Joseph
COllway, a hotel employe in the kitchen
Of his home. at 13iS Four-and-a-haIf
street southwest, and that while walk
ing around the room holding a knife
which he was going to use 20 cut
a plug of tobacco. he tripped and fell
the knife stabbinS him near the heart.
The wound was at first regarded by
the doctors as being serious, and a
rush was made TO the hospital A fur
ther investigation however showed that
II was not dangerous, and the man was
allowed to 60 home with his wife.
Notwithstanding the fact that Lusby
and the witnesses unqualifedly state
that the matter was entirely an ac-
cident. doubts concerning the affair are
expressed by the police. No arrests
have been made in the matter.

FEAR OF ARREST
AS TRUANT BOY
DRIVES LAD MAD
Child Who Did Wrong
Could Never Lose
Visions Of Prison.

NEW YORK, Dec 2S.-Louis Gaynor,
nine years old. is believed today to
have been driven insane by fear that
he would be sent To a truant school.
For five days he lived at his home,
21l East One Hundred and Tenth street,
in constant dread of the coming of
officers to take him away. He became
violent last night and two policemen
were required to convey him to Belle
vue.
According to the police. Louis played
hockey with other lads. He attended
IIv Franciscan Brothers School. at
Second avenue and One Hundred and
Twelfth street. He did not like 10
study, but loved to wander about the
cast side and see the thousand sights
that lure boys from the narrow path
Lured Away by Others.
He met other boys. who told him it
was silly to spend so much time strug-
CLING with figures and hard names in
geography and hard words in spelling
They spoke Of the fun in the strange
streets. where Louis had never been.
though they were near They told him
Of the penny shows. the big ships they
could watch on, the river. the games
they could play, and the carouslng
whooping, grand old time they could
have all day long.
He fell. The first day out was enough
for Louis. But, later. the coaxinE voices

His teachers missed him. and soon IL
came to his parents that he had been a

The impossible has come to pass!
Let the stars fall from their places in
the armament, let the moon shrink and
dwindle away, and let the sun cease %
shine,
Champ Clark, of Missouri, the man
among men. whose word has ever been
law in the minds OF his constituents,
has shown undeniable symptoms to-
ward nature-faking; not only symptoms,
but actual signs. There is no longer
any doubt about it.
Last night before a large audience Of
helpless and inoffensive men and women
comprising the Missouri Society, men
and women who attended without the
slightest knowledge of what was in
store for them, Champ Clark made a
speech, and in that speech he declared
that oysters could be raised in Missouri.

Mr.. Clark. in the course Of his speech,
was discussing the manifold mysteries
OF marvellous Missouri. He told Of the
corn, he dwelt upon its stupendous cot
ton crops, and eulugized on its gigantic
wheat. The audience was delighted
with his patriotism. Then came the
climax
Mr.. Clark stepped forward.
Ladies and gentlemen" said he
slowly. sonorously, impressively, 'I can
assure you that we not only raise the
greatest cotton in the world. the finest
corn, and other things too numerous 10
mention. but we can raise oysters.
O-y-s-t-e-r-s, and not only oysters. but

Clark with growing enthusiasm, "had a
salt bed on his farm. He damned UP
a stream and ran the water into the
salt bed and sent TO Baltimore for some
live oysters. and, ladies and gentle
men. those oysters grew and thrived
as well there as they did in the sandy
bottom Of the blue and briny salt
water"
Apparently those oysters never even
felt homesick, and the brisk Missouri
air must have agreed with them. It
Is quite possible that they became so
stout and "chesty'' after several months
sojourn in Missouri that they had 10

New York, July 5.-The amount OF
securities created in the United States

been paralleled. The grand total au-
thorized is s1.27s,72s,5 500. Already
s799,422.100 has been issued since
January J., leaving $479,2S6.4 400 of this
