persons to the lonely dwelling IN the

of humping is heard as II on metal

stove, floating about in the air and
then return to their places. One ven
turesome individual tells Of a spirit

II first asked the invisible visitor

Philadelphia. April 5.-That James
Matthias Williams, confessed bigamist
and probable husband of $50 wives

opinion arrived at by the police after

prospective dupes, were found several

In the room were also found
bundles Of gold mine" stock, garish-

According to the detectives Will

par The detectives declare that they
submitted the stock 10 local mining

II to be worthless. 1t was while VIII

who sometimes posed as his daughter
alternated the investment game with
that of the matrimonial agency busi-
ness. When one became too hot they
would leave town, settle miles away
under assumed names and begin the
other game.

Vertical Travel Points.

Conservative estimates have 1t that
New York's daily aggregate of verti
cal travel incident to the use of stairs
alone totals 10000 miles, consumes
nearly five vars of time and involves
the expenditure of 100000 horse
power. All this is the total but for a
single day; in year the city's resi-
dents spend 1,750 years in getting up
and down-that is, in vertical travel.
At a minimum at least 100000 stair
trips of single flight each are made
daily: for not only is this means of
vertical travel necessary in homes,
stores and older office buildings, but
also for reaching the subway or ele-
waited lines.
In word. New York is face to face
with the necessity for saving her citi-
zens the time and energy now ex-
pended for vertical travel. Under Ger
tain conditions, of course, elevators
accomplish this end; under Others
where travel is heavy during rush
