ELECTION POSTERS IN ROME.
Compare with Those Used in the
Days of Ancient Pompeii.

Rome, Dec. 2S.-In the innumerable cleo
ton posters which covered the walls and
the churches. the private houses and the
public buildings. prior 10 the municipal
elections here. the appeal CT the vast ma
jOrity OF them was 20 some political or
sociahstlc or other associated group Of
voters. one class OF poster had. how
ever. a distinctive and unusual char
2cter. In Il a certain individual men
toned the position he holds IN one OF the
departments Of labor in Rome. and rec
commended all who knew him, or know
Of him. 70 vote for certain candidate
whose position and occupation he men
tons. This appears rather an innova-
ton in the mode Of appeal 10 electors
Perhaps the thought that underlies il pre-
walls in elections in many countries. but
this public recommendation TO vote a. an
Individual suggests is not specially con-
spicUous In our days
In ancient days. however. this personal
call upon the electors 10 vote as an in

the time and patience TO study the signs
Of the life OF the past which the walls
present. is likely 10 come across many
examples OF this sort of appeal to cleo

ness OF appeal 10 the voter

SLEEPING BEAUTY FOUND.
Woman Wrapped in SIumber Under
Extraordinary circumstances.

Paris. Dec. &-Returning home at
night from a days shooting. a party Of
motorists on the main road between Sens
and Pont-sur-Yonne saw by the light
OF their lamps a body lying across the
road. The car was stopped few feet
from the body and the motorists, among
whom was a Paris harrister. got out.
They found a young woman OF remark
able beauty. fashiOnably dressed. IN 4
heavy sleep. The roads We're muddy, but
her boots were spOtleSs. She appeared 10
be In perfect health. The left hand was
bare, the right gloved Under the arm
was a serviette stamped with the name
Of a Paris hotel, where nothing IS known
Of the wOman. in which were wrapped
some English books. Her linen was
marked Alice" Her dress was immacU-
late She carried reticule containing
powder pun and other toilet articles.
The motorists took her TO the nearest
village. where she awoke and called for
her mother Then she cried. My watch.

that she was among strangers and be-
came suddenly silent. Closely questioned.
she would offer no explanation OF how
she came 10 be upon the road but gave
accounts Of her identity which were
quickly proven 10 be entirely false.
There IS no clew to the mystery as vet.
but it is suggested that the woman was
drugged, robbed, and then placed upon
the road by the malefactors in the hope
that she would be run over and killed
by some passing vehicle.

pie The institution became well known.

OLD WOMAN MISER STARYES
Has Hoard of $22, 800 in the Bank,
Yet Perishes of Hunger.
Efforts to Find Relatives UuaVaiI-
ing, Although SON of Hers
Died Several Years Ago.

Manchester, Dec. cS.-There are some
curious features in the case Of an old
Manchester woman who lived a simple
and lonely life and died of starvation.
although she had over $3.50 in money
and securities.
Mrs. Ellen Cresswell. a widow lived
her life quite apaS from the outside
world. occupying a house in Ellington
place. Clifford street. Chorlton-on- Med
lock, a typical workng-class district.
On the afternoon Of Wednesday the peo-
pie who live next door heard a noise Ike
some one falling. but their knowledge
Of the eccentric habits OF their neigh
Dor led them 10 attach little importance
to it. on the following Thursday and
Friday mornings the postman received
no answer to his repeated knocks. and
when the rent collector called to-day he
was told by the neighbors that the old
woman had not been seen for a week.
The police were then informed and two
constables burst open the door and found
the old woman lying dead on the kitchen
floor. She was fully dressed and the
body bore no signs Of violence. though
it was in a neglected and emacitated con-
dition. There was little food in the house.
and the place generally was in deplor-
able state There was strong evidence
that the deceased, who was about sew
enty years Of age, had died OF starvation.
a more careful search Of the house by
the police showed that the late tenant
had balances in Manchester banks
amounting to over $225O0. She had had
transactions with the Manchester and
Liverpool District Bank and the Man
chester and Stafford Savings Bank. but
most Of the money was deposited in the
district. In drawers and unlikely places
the police found 800 in gold. while stitch
ed to the clothing she was wearing were
three sovereigns and some silver amount
ing to So.
Efforts 10 find any of her relatives
have failed. and what the neighbors say
about her is most contradictory They
agree. however that she has a son on
board ship. and that she buried a son
at Lancaster four or five years ago.
There is every indication that at one
time of her life she lived in more COM
Portable circumstances and better sur
roundings, for the police found some old
jeWelry and a quaint miniature portrait
Of young man, which Is believed to be
that OF one of her sons.
