SWEETHEARTS DROWN.
No Trace of Beatrice Penton and
 Young Civil Engineer.

New Rochelle, N. Y., Sept. 23.-Vain- ly the members of several rowing and yacht clubs searched the sound for the bodies of Beatrice Penton, fifteen years ? old, and Guido de, .Angelis, twenty three, a civil engineer, who had been lost in the squall that swept over the sound. The death of the couple mark ed the tragic ending of romance in which the parents of the girl sought to interfere and in which the young man was summoned to court two weeks ago charged with annoying her.
 The anger of Miss Penton's parents has given way to deep mourning for their daughter, and they joined with the father of the young man and the other searchers in efforts to recover the bodies. . .-e@
 It was without the knowledge of their parents that De Angelis and Miss < Penton went out sailing in the young mans 'knockabout the Microbe. The girl had asked her mother for permis- sion to go swimming and it was grant ed. Her parents thought she had SUD- pressed her fondness for De Angelis, and they felt confident she would not see him again. For three months the young man had courted the girl, much to the annoyance of her parents, They had warned De Angelis to keep away from the house, but he did not heed their warnings. ss,. .ls "
 In final effort to break up the youthful attachment of the couple Miss Penton's mother obtained a summons from Judge Van Auken for De Angelis and he was taken to court. The girl protested her love for the young man, but the judge told her she was a minor and amenable to the discipline of her parents. He advised her to give up De Angelis, but she refused.
 The judge asked De Angelis whether he would agree to keep away from the girl The young man hesitated, and the judge told him if he did not prom ise to do so he would be put under bonds. De Angelis finally agreed not to address Miss Penton without the permission of her parents and he was discharged.
 For week the girl was not permit ted to leave the house alone, but final ly her parents concluded she would keep away from De Angelis of her own will. As soon as the girl realized she was no longer being watched, how ever, she sent word to De Angelis, and he, unmindful of the promise he had made in court, met her. They decided to go out sailing and laid plans to avoid being seen together by persons who might tell her father.
 When Miss Penton asked her mother for permission to go swimming 1t was granted readily. Instead of going to the bathing beach the girl went to the New Rochelle Rowing club, where she met De Angelis. The two got into the sailboat and remained out all after noon. They were returning to the clubhouse when they were caught in the squall.
 De Angelis was seen by a lighthouse keeper trying to take in his sail. He was experiencing great difficulty. The boat drifted out of view of the light keeper and neither boat nor couple has been seen since

WILL REMOVE FENCE.
One at Soldiers Monument to Go tc
 Hamilton Park. r.+

Within short time the iron fence which is at present around. the soldiers monument will be removed and taken to Hamilton park where it will be put to some. use by Superin- tendent of Parks Walker. The fence was built around the monument when there was such a craze in this city for bicycles. Cyclists found much amusement in circling the monument and when they became tired resting themselves on the steps. So the fence was erected. But many consider ed it unsightly and as the fever for the wheels has died out, it was decid- ed to remove the fence. Coping has been placed around the monument instead of the fence.

SAMUEL SLOAN DEAD.
Baron of Railroads Passes Away in
 His Ninetieth Year.

New York, Sept 23.-Samuel Sloan, former president of the Lackawanna railroad, one of the great factors in the finance of the days before Morgan and Hartman, died at his summer home near Garrisons-on-the-H Hudson. It was said at the home of his son, Samuel Sloan, Jr., 45 East Fifty-third street, that all the family were at the house at Garrisons. All that was known at the town house was that Mir. Sloan's illness had been brief and not alarming until the sudden end.
 If MT. Sloan had lived until Christ mas day he would have been ninety years old. His father brought him from Ireland when he was two years old. He studied his three R's in Pub lie School No 1, first of the education al system of the city. He was pre- pared for Columbia college, but when he was fourteen years old the death of his father sent him to work.
 Sloan's first employer was his boss for twenty years. This time he spent with the importing firm of Mcbride X Co.,, and he was promoted from time to time. In his twenty-sixth year he married Margaret Elmendorf of Som. eryille, N. J. They celebrated a few years ago their sixtieth wedding an- niversary. Mir Sloan was active in Brooklyn politics before the war, run ming unsuccessfully for congress in 1853, but being elected to the state senate four years later.
 Mir. Sloan "got into" the Hudson River railroad while it was still un- finished and before Commodore Van derbilt took hold of it and became its president in 1855. The stock was then selling at ST. share. The quotation was $40 when Sloan retired in 1864 Mir. Sloan, after Vanderbilt became head of the New York Central system, acted as arbitrator of the trunk lines the Erie, the Pennsylvania, the New York Central and the Baltimore and Ohio. But after few months of that he became president of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western, then un- completed.
 He was a close associate of Jay Gould and Russell Sage in their prin- cipal enterprises and speculative coups. He broadened his business interests so that he was up to the year of his death an active director in thirty-one corporations, including the Western Union, the Lackawanna and the Con- solidated Gas company. Being a di- rector. to Mir. Sloan, always meant knowing the corporations business and taking leading part in the conduct of its affairs. Whenever he felt that he couldn't be a director who directs he quit.
 Interviewed at Garrisons within few years, he was asked how he kept so young in spite of time, and he said:
 "The answer is work. live a regular life and get plenty of rest. fresh air and exercise. I go to my office every Tuesday. My children object, but I tell them I am the better off for busy ing myself. I have always worked hard from boyhood, and cannot and don't want to quit now"
 Mrs. Sloan and her son and daughter, Samuel, IT., and Mary Sloan, survive him.
