A HUMILIATING SPECTACLE.

The first feelings of indignation
among the American people over the
action of Governor Swettenham in
ordering Rear Admiral Davis ITO
Withdraw from the island of ia
maica, and rejecting, in an insult
ing manner, the offers of American
assistance to relieve the distressed
people and maintain order, give way
to pity and contempt-pity that a
man so utterly lacking in sense OF
what is due from one in his official
position should have been placed
where he could make such humili.
ating spectacle of himself and con-
tempt for the smallness of mind that
could promt the language used in the
governors letter to Admiral Davis.
There is, of course, natural in
clination by both the government of
the United States and that Of Great
Britain to await further information
before saying anything of a commit.
tai nature on the incident. The let
ter of Governor Swettenham is. how
ever, the strongest evidence that
could be furnished Of his mental
caliber. More significant than any
thing which can be said by Americans
is the tone OF the British press de-
precating very emphatically the atti-
tude of Governor Swettinham. Criti-
cism IN the United States naturally
accompanies resentment over an ap-
parent insult; coming from England
1t is free from imputation Of bias.
It is impossible to imagine that
there will be any international i'll
feeling over the incident. It was a
personal matter, pure and simple, on
the part Of the governor Of Jamaica,
for which he alone can be held re-
sponsible. The British government
is taking prompt steps to advise it.

there is no probability that the cor

LET THE OLD ORCHARD PASS.
The fruit inspector

The fruit inspector of Marion
county will .lo'a series of meetings
this week in which he will present the
subject of pruning, spraying and
cleaning up old ana neglected or
chards. There are orchards and or
chards, even in this class, and some
of them may repay in a few years
the labor and expense of pruning,
cultivating and spraying; but for the
most part the wisest and best course
is to cut the trees down, grub then,
out and burn them, root and branch.
Then, If the site is favorable one
and the soil suitable and properly
drained, let new, clean trees be set
out and properly cared for, and the
reward will be certain and not long
in coming.
The old orchard has had! its day.
Planted by the hand of an energetic
pioneer long since turned to dust;
assisted, perhaps, by barefoot boys
in blue denim, who are now gray
haired men, the young wife looking
on with child, now grandmother

and came early into bearing. Orchard

chard produced when it was young

market for it's luscious offerings.

came a blot upon the landscape. It
was frightened in Maytime with
blossoms, but bore all the rest of
the year the shadow of neglect.
Mossgrown, it offered ready quar-

season when the tent caterpillar took

looking object was the old orchard
at such times, and a place Stunned
by children who made merry under
its trees in other years. A reproach
to the landscape and the landowner
is the old, long-neglected orchard.

SUE TAKES
ROOSEVELT CUP.
Even If Regina Should Win Today's
Race, It Would Not Give Her
Victory in the Series.

NORFOLK, Va, Sept. 16.--While the
yacht Sue, in defeating the Regina
twice last week in the class "P" series
in the International Cup Yacht regatta
at the jamestown Exposition, was de-
clared the winner of the Roosevelt cup,
the jamestown regatta commission held
that this cup, having been offered for
the most points made in three races, 1t
would be necessary for the Sue to
make the start today before she could
be officially declared the winner.
This she did this morning and there
by took the Presidents cup. The Sue
and the Regina both made the start
in the third race in the "P' class to-
day. II the Regina wins today's race
this would give her only four points to
the Sues five. and the race Is there
fore without effect on the result, even
though the Sue may not go over the
full course.
The weather for the races today is
clear and in every way favorable. The
day dawned with fog, but this soon
cleared and the water covering the III
miles constituting the course which
was to be covered twice is calm.

they say, the Roberts woman at one
time being known in this city az Cohen

Little is known of the Kelly woman

night in the Centre Market before she

ACTRESS AGAIN
ANOTHER HEARING IN CASE
AGAINST NEWARKER.
Paula Klipenbourg Reappears Before
immigration Board, Having Es-
capped Deportation.

F'raulein Paula Klipenbourg. the viennese
actress, who came here from Paris to sue
Horace 2. Miller, a Newarker, for breach
of promise, and who was subsequently ar
rested and held at Ellis Island as an ''un-
desirable alien" is being given a rehearing
by the Board of immigration Inquiry and
immigration Commissioner Watchorn at
Ellis Island this afternoon.
The reopening of the case is due largely
to the interest manifested in the case by
Edwin s. Merrill counsel for the actress,
who, after securing the promise of Acting
Secretary Smith of the Bureau of Com
merce and Labor that a new hearing
would be held, has been put Off time after
time by the federal authorities.
Mr.. Merrill last Thursday afternoon in
formed the immigration authorities that
unless he was given an immediate hearing
he would take the case into the federal
courts of New York on mandamus pro-
ceedings. This apparently decided the
authorities to act, and today's hearing was
ordered.

Jacob c. Taylor Says Shoenthal Dis

Because of Politics.

School Commissioner Jacob c. Taylor, Of
Orange. who for a little over six years
was employed by Mayor Isaac Shoenthal,
of that city, as a cigarmaker, said today
that he was dismissed from the latter's
employ Saturday night. Mr.. Taylor as
serted that the only reason he could as
sign for his dismissal was because he took
an active part in politics and opposed
many Of the Mayors ideas as to how the
Orange School Board should be run.
Commissioner Taylor is a Republican,
while the Mayor is a Democrat. The
Mayor has been very outspoken of late
over the alleged carelessness of the
school board in not providing more room
for the school children, which, 1t is said,
has aroused the ire of Commissioner Tay
lor. who has resented the criticisms.

Michael Laprete. a Greek, was sen
fenced to 80 days in the penitentiary
this morning in the First Criminal
Court by Judge Howell. having been
found guilty Of interfering with Mrs.
Hannah Keane, In Elizabeth avenue,
near Runyan street, late last night.
Laprete, who says he lives somewhere
in Frelinghuysen avenue, was arrested
after Mrs. Keane had held him for ten
minutes, and until Policeman Weippert,
of the First Precinct station, arrived.
According to Mr.. Keane's story she
and her husband were walking in Eliza
beth avenue last night, near Runyan
street. Her husband was a few steps
behind her when suddenly. from behind
a tree, two men sprang at her. One of
them grabbed her by the throat and
attempted to knock her down. She held
the man while her husband chased the
other, who, however, escaped.
Mrs. Keane had quite a struggle with
her assailant, but Policeman Weippert
soon showed up. A stranger passing in
a carriage saw the struggles of the
woman and her prisoner and ran to her
assistance just as the policeman came
upon the scene.
In the meantime a telephone call was
sent to the station house for the re-
serves, but the Greek was under arrest

Burglars Got Nearly $4,000
Worth Of Loot, Including
Wedding Gifts.
JEWELRYLEFTUNTOUCHED
Mrs. Billings Is Daughter Of P.
Sanford Ross, of Newark,
Whose Home, as Well as
His Brother.in.Law's, Has
Also Been Robbed.
Especial to tho Evenine star.I

LONG BRANCH, Sept. 16--As q
parting compliment to Mr.. and Mrs.
Harry B. Billings, well-known summer
residents here, robbers broke into their
cottage on Sunday morning and looted
1t of valuables to the amount Of nearly
SO. 900.
This is the third of series Of rob-
berries that have been perpetrated this
season on members Of the family of p.
Sanford Ross, of Newark. Only a few
weeks ago his own home was entered.
and shortly before that the house Of his
brother-in-law was visited. Mrs. Bill
lings is daughter OF Mr.. Ross
Whether the coincidence is Intentional
or not cannot be told. but the infer
ence is that there is a gang that seem
to give the members of that family
their special attention.
Sometime between the hours OFT and
p. m. yesterday window In the DIM
ing-room was forced and the house was
entered by the crooks. From the tracks
that were left the police look for two
of them. They confined their opera
tions to the dining-room and the draw
ing-room Of the beautiful villa Here
they found sufficient loot to satisfy
them and the jewelry and other valua-
bles were saved, together with sew
eral hundred dollars in money, which
was on the second floor.
In the haul there were eight silver
vases. each one worth 5000. They were
of French workmanship and Of rare
Louis XIII. design. These vases, were
among the most priced possessions of
Mrs Billings, and were on mantle
in the drawing room. Ranged on the
sideboard in the dining room were five
tall and handsome loving cups the
prizes that were won at the different
bench shows by Mr.. Billings's famous
bulldogs. These were choice property
and were always guarded with great
care against theft. It is estimated that
their intrinsic value is $3.50. With this
silver there went several little photo
frames that had been brought over
from Europe and which were very
valuable. There was an unusual
amount of gold work on them and they
were valued at about $500. There were
also some beautiful covers that were
taken from one Of the drawers in the
buffet.
They were of rare old Swiss lace.
and were one of the gifts at Mr.. and
Mrs. Bi1lings's wedding. They were
always kept in drawer in the buffet,
as they we're thought safer from rob
bers there than anywhere else. Eight
hundred dollars would probably cover
their value.
Notice was Immediately sent to the
local police when the robbery was dis
covered by the maid in the morning.
Word was also sent to Newark and
New York, with description Of the
goods. No clue has been found that
will lead to the arrest of the robbers.
