Bank of England Branch swindIed in
an Unusual Way.
A remarkable story of halfpennies
being substituted for half-sovereigns
was told at the Manchester city police
court, says the London Daily Mail,
when Henry Douglas Anderson, who
had been employed at the Manchester
branch of the Bank of England and
after absconding had been arrested in
Canada, was charged with stealing
G1,081
In stating the case for the prosecu-
ton F. E. Smith, M. P, said that the
prisoners duty was that of separating
lightweight gold coins from those Of
full weight, and he had to put the full
weight coins into bags which he had
to label and sign. On July 81 he alb
sented himself, and on Aug. 2 the bank
issued twenty-five bags of half-sover-
eigns to Messrs. Williams, Deacon's
bank, and fourteen Of them. which had
been made up by the prisoner, were
found to have been tempered with
half-sovereigns having been replaced
by the necessary number of half-pen-
MES to make up the correct weight.
Two other bags in the banks treasury
which bore his signature were also
found to have been tempered with in
the same way, and the total sum miss
ing was G1,0S1.
On Sept. ID the bank received let
ter from the prisoner in Winnipeg, in
which he practically admitted his
guilt and made reference to the mad
act he had committed
Evidence was given by number of
bank clerks, including retired detec-
tive inspector, named John Woolven,
who, describing his search for Ander-
son, and he went down to Whitstable-
on-Sea and found the prisoners wife
and family living there. In a drawer
he found G647.

kubeIik.
The career of Jan Kubelik, the b.
hemian violinist, has been one of eX-
ceeding brilliancy. Ten years ago he
was unknown outside of the village of
Niche, where he was born, and where
he passed his boyhood in the humble
home of his father, a gypsy gardener.
Yet before he reached his twentieth
year all Europe was ringing with his
fame, and now at twenty-seven, an age
when most men are beginners in their
life work, he stands master. Since
his second American tour Kubelik has
added to his many achievements, tour
ing Europe and playing before the
various crowned heads.
His st. Paul concert will be given at
the Peoples church Thursday evening,
Dec 5.
Olive Fremstad.
Years ago, in st. Peter, Mimi, and
later in Minneapolis and Duluth, a
young girl was struggling to earn
bare living for herself. No work was
too hard or mental, yet all the time
she was filled with one determination,
to become a great singer, and she
lived only to this end. 1t is far cry
from this to the world famous prima
donna who was awarded by the
French government the decoration OF
officer of public instruction in recogni-
ton of her services in singing the
title role of Salome in the French
capital. Such is the story of Olive

BAD FREIGHT WRECK
Train No. 81, Of the South Shore Road
Runs Away while Descend
Ing IAnse Hill,

Thursday afternoon shortly after
lo'clock the sound of a prolonged
whistle was heard coming from the
direction OF the South Shore rail-
road, and soon after the sound OF
crashing timbers and grinding
wheels were heard.
Upon investigation it was found
that freight train No. 81, under
charge OF Conductor O'Neil, had
made one of those flying trips down
L'Anse hill, and had crashed into
the rear cars OF another freight
train which was standing on a sid
ing.
According TO the story as related
by members OF the crew,
the train was almost at u
standstill at Boivins, but after pass
ing that point gained little
more Roadway. When about to de-
20 nd the lower p TT Of the hill, En-
gineer Erickson applied the air to
the brakes and with a pressure Of
about ninety pounds began the
downward trip. All seemed to be
going we'll, when suddenly about a
mile from the station the train be-
gan to gain speed, and dispite the
efforts Of the crew, the speed of the
train could not be checked.
Standing on a siding another
freight train and the push engine
we're awaiting the oncoming freight.
Hearing the signal OF distress, COM
ing nearer, it was evident that the
crew had lost control and was at the
mercy Of a runaway train. Every
one on the awaiting trains ran for
places OF safety.
As the train sped on, one after
another OF the crew left the train. All
reached the ground In safety, ex-
cept Engineer Erickson, who landed
heavily in the deep snow, and sus-
tanned fracture OF the left leg just
below the knee.
The runaway train continued on
and crashed into the train on the
siding, topping two refrigerator
cars into the ditch, telescoping
another, and forced the caboose and
several cars some distance along the
main track.
Fortunately no one was killed.
but the accident will Jay Engineer
Erickson up for some time. He
was taken to his home In Marquette
on the evening passenger train.
The tracks we're cleared during
the afternoon in time to permit the
passage Of the regu ar trains.
