MAY BE MURDERER
Man Arrested in New York in Connection With Explosion
 Last Winter.

Paterson, N. J., June 19-Thc mysterious murder of Justice Robert Cortese of this city, who was kill ed by the explosion of bomb in his office last winter, may, the police be- lieye, be solved as result of develop ments following another murder. Mi- chael Monochine was found murdered on Garrett mountain last week and Joseph Mustel was arrested charged with the crime. To-day Hampton 4. Voorhees,, a clerk in the United Ex- press company's office in Newark iden- tified Mustel as the man who deliver ed to the express office the internal machine which later kil:ed Justice Cortese. Voorhees, also identified a photograph of Monochine as that of a man who accompanied MustaI. The police suspect that several men were involved in the assassination of Jus tlce Cortese, that Monoehine was one of them and that some of his com panions, fearing that he had been tempted to betray them by the large rewards offered for the slayer of Jus tice Cortese, killed him.
 Justice Cortese incurred the enmity of the criminal element among the Italians because of his activity in as sisting the police to run down these lawbreakers.

THE TOO FRANK PERSON.
Some Plain Truths as Set Forth by a
 Woman Writer.

We all know-and respect-and avoid-suA persons; the world is full of them-too full for the general com fort of its other inhabitants. And fre- quently what they call the truth is not abstract at all, but is merely the expression of their own particular (and frequently erroneous) opinions Yet as they utter 1t they glow with spiritual pride and feel themselves in the same boat as the Christians of the Catacombs and the rest of the noble army of martyrs; never realizing that their cause is no tenet of an inspired creed. but merely an embodiment of their own pet prejudices; and their sacrifices on its behalf is neither their own life nor wealth, but merely the feelings and the sentiments of other people, says Woman's Life. Such per- sons are very fond of remarking that they owe it to themselves to say ex- actly what they think; it never seems to occur to them that they likewise owe 1t to others to conceal what they think, If such thoughts be inimical to the general pleasantness and we'll be; ing of society at large; yet surely they have never been taught that their duty to themselves comes before their duty to their neighbors.

AsToNIsHED CHILD OF SUMS.
Pathos in Little Girls Exclamation of
 Wonder.

It was case of the meeting of ex- tremes. A beautifully appointed baby carriage, enameled in white and with all its fittings and coverlets of snowy spotlessness, was being trundled along an uptown street, says the New York Times. In 1t lay pink-and- white baby, nestIing amid frills of lawn and lace. Approaching from the other direction was group of little Italian children. evidently on their way home from school. Dressed in heavy-looking clothes of every pos sible color, the only uniformity pre- sented was the general hue of dirt, which seemed to be common to the clothing. as we'll as the hands and faces. of all. Certainly the contrast between the baby in the carriage and the children on the street-many of them scarcely more than babies them selves-could not have been more marked. Something of this seemed to impress the children. Pausing for a moment, they gazed at the carriage with admiring eyes. while ones little girl, braver than the rest, peering under the hood to get a better look at the occupant, exclaimed: "Myl What q whiteness!"

HAD TO GO ON IN AUTO.
Machine Wouldn't Stop and Owner
 Tried to Wear 1t Out.

John P. Julius. a prominent piano dealer, of York. Pa, and an enthusi- astic automobilist, engaged with his electric auto in an endurance run, which he will not soon forget. While driving along through the city streets something went wrong with the mechanism of his car and he found that he was unable to stop it. Though moving at a lively clip the cars pace was within the speed limit, and Mir. Julius, with great presence of mind. steered 1t on, meanwhile giving his spare attention to search for the trouble. This search he finally aban- doned. and then began the endurance run. which continued up hill and down through the streets and over country roads for several hours. The machine continued to bowl merrily on, and Mir. Julius was in despair. when he passed . garage and managed to attract the attention of mechanic. who jumped aboard and by removing a few plugs brought up the runaway.

TAFT MAY WITHDRAW.
Secretary of War Fears Strain of
 Presfdential Campaign.

Secretary of War Fears Strain oS
 Presfdential Campaign.
 WASHINGTON, June 10. = Rumors are afoat here that Secretary Taft is likely to withdraw from the presiden- tlal race on his return to Washington. His health Is one of the reasons ascrib- ed, it being doubtful whether he can stand the combined strain of making e fight for the presidency, running the Philippines, supervising the Panama canal management, heading the war department and acting as general ad. wiser to the administration in all sorts of matters.
 The secretary's breakdown at Fort Smelling is cited as showing that MT. Taft is already overworked Besides, he has never entered heartily Into the presidential race and would far prefer the supreme court. It Is understood there will be important conferences be- tween Mir. Taft and some of his close advisers when he returns June 22, and 1t will be discussed whether 1t Is worth while to stay in the field.
 While the withdrawal rumors lack confirmation, 1t Is known that Mir. Taft's lieutenants here are not encour- aged over the outlook.
