ROWLAND ARRIVED
 HERE TODAY NOON

The steamer Lucille Rowland ar rived today from Memphis with a Dig cargo of freight. She is in charge of Captain E. A. Stantield and Lou Manker is in charge of her Office. The steamer will go through to Little Rock tonight, leaving here at D. m. Information from the capital states that a large shipment of cotton is awaiting the boat there. Early in the week it was stated that the water was falling in the Arkan- sas and that if it continued the boat would not be able to make the trip. The water, however, is high enough now to enable the steamer to make the trip there and back before Sum- day night. Manager c. M. Philpot will go to Little Rock on the steamer.

This card courtesy gathered all the young ladies from the saciety set, with number of charming natrons. As guests entered the home they were each and every one of them pro- voked to an exclamation of adnlira- tion for the beautiful picture which the hostess had wrought in her dec oratlons. Roses ill different hue were placed ill every available place, American beauties, the beau tiful La France and the fragrant Marchal Neil, all in frames of green, made of the rooms veritable spring gardens. At the close of the game a gauge fan was awarded to Mrs. Richard Barnett, a rhinestone barfette to Miss lola Philrot and a gold Gelt buckle to Mrs Tom McEwen
 The luncheon served at the close of the game was in perfect keeping With the affair. Miss Smiths com pliment to the Talkatini Club was one of the brilliant card parties of the season.

He is scheduled to ar rive at o'clock this morning. r. is thought that he will spend today in this city in company with Cen eral Manager A. w.

 May Be General Manager.
 In view of the fact that Mr. Fish was recently elected a member of the board of directors of the Gonld lines and that he is now making as complete an inspection of the Mis- souri Pacific system as has been made by any of the officials in years it is rumored, and apparently not without grounds. that he is to take the general managership of the entire system. This is entirely a matter of conjecture at present. but such is thought by many to be the case According to statements given out, however, by Mr. Fish and oth- CTS the trip of inspection is being made only for the purpose of secl,r- ing ideas as to needed improve ments over the system.

The detective examined the garroter's Irvine
closely. There knot in it just where it
pressed down upon the windpipe and another at
the back of the neck where powerful fingers had
drawn it tight and fastened it with knot similar
to the running of a lasso.
Its good job, all right" commented Detective
Mallory heartessly enough as he scrutni zed the
two knots " 1t was prepared for just such pur-
pose, and we'll prepared at that"
1T isn't unlike the garroting cord that the thugs
of India use remarked Hatch
Is that So? inquired the detective, as he turned
quickly on the newspaper man. They had met be-
fore many times, and there professional friend

the entire affair." with every established fact for the
benefit of Professor Augustus S. F. X. Van Dusen
The Thinking Machine. They were we'll ac-
quainted, these two acquaintance which had
begun with the chess game incident which had
given to the noted scientist the soubrquet by which
he had since become known beyond the narrow pale
of science On dozen occasions The
Thinking Machine had interested himself in every
day problems at the request of the newspaper man,
and had invariably woven a wool from tangled dis
connected threads which the reporter brought him.
1t S absolutely astounding, the reporter told the
scientist now, not only the method of the murder
right within reach, almost, of who was to-
tally blind-but there is nothing to indicate any
motive, So"
Begin at the beginning, Mr.. Hatch" interrupted
The Thinking Machine crustily. When you do
sum in arithmetic, you put down all the figures,
don't you? Well, give me all the figures"
We'll, here is every known fact in the CASE
explained the reporter. Mr.. Barrett is about
seventy-two years old; his granddaughter Mildred
little less than fourteen. She was the only
relative he had in the world and had lived with him
in the little house, which he owns since the death
of her father who was killed in the Spanish-Amer-
lean War. They kept servant, the child, with
little assistance from the old man. able to do
practically all the simple housework. Occasionally
they called in a woman who lived half mile away
to assist in house cleaning and the heavier work.
1t that Barrett has income of about
thousand year, and they able to live COM
fortably this.
Very few persons ever called at the house, and
preceding the tragedy there caller, at least
that Barrett knows of. The child was somewhere in
the of the house. and he was sitting in his own
room. He heard no voices, sound, nothing
cept the child singing, until she along the
hall, evidently to his The grim horror of the

whole thing from that time on has unnerved the
old man that he is almost in state of collapse
TO me the mystery of the thing is intensified
by the fact that the murdered girl is mere child
Her extreme youth would indicate at least that there
could have been love affair." certainly from all
have been able to learn there was not And her
youth, too, would make it improbable that she
could have had enemy who would have gone to
such extreme. Besides, she seems to have been
sweet tempered sunny little girl intelligent, bright,
and lovable. Nothing whatever stolen. There
is positively clue in the world, not vagrant
footprint or any small thing that might have been
left to indicate who was there-that is of course
except the cord with which she was strangied
Would the old man have benefited by the child :
DEATH" inquired The Thinking Machine.
In no way at all Hatch replied positively,
nor would anyone else. There is no property tied
up, as far anyone find out and the miserable
little which it cost him to keep the child is not
SO much as he would have had to pay to employ a
servant in ne. absence"
The Thinking Machine sat for a long time with
his squint blue eyes turned upward, and his
white slender fingers pressed tip to tip Min

The Thinking Machine stared at him curiously
for moment. :" How long have you been blind,
Mr.. BARRETT?
'Only about two years.
The Thinking Machine nodded as if he understood,
and then for hour he sat questioning the old
his brow, and never for moment was his tense
attention relaxed At the end he rose, and Hatch
looked at him nquirngly. He shook his head.
He spent another hour in examination of the
strangers cord, the knots, the body, and of the
premises. Every nook and of the little house
was searched with the utmost care, and every foot
of the little plot of ground surrounding it
fully gone over. Gradually his radius of observa-
ton widened until he had covered the ground a
hundred feet every way from the house in every
direction Then he Went inside again. One of the
detectives, Cunninghar met him in the hall
There is no question whatever of the innocence
of the two who say they heard the girl scream
and came in:' he asked.
There doesn't seem to be- replied Cunning
ham. We have taken pains confirm their
stories, and to be certain of their identity. They
seem to be ali right"
Il imagined So remarked the scientist. What
about this woman who came here occasionally to
assist in the housework?"
I'VE also looked into that She had been spend
ing the day with friend, in village dozen miles
away. We have proof of that"
The Thinking Machine turned and walked into the
room where Barrett sat. Would you be prepared
to say he asked, that the sounds you heard were
made by animal of any sort? That is, mean an
ape say, a babOon!
Il couldn't say, replied Barrett.
Or that the hair you touched was bristy like the
hair of ANIMAL!
Il couldn't say" repeated Barrett. Il dom

Mr.. Hatch, he SAID at last, perhaps the
most remarkable that l have ever met.
As you say, the youth Of the child removes
all the ordinary motives" He was silent for
a moment. Our greatest criminals are
never caught, and rarely ever heard Of Mr.
Hatch, he went on musingly. " The greatest
crimes are never discovered. as a matter of
fact. One might readily conceive OF brain
so keen, SO accurate, that IN, Sly, murder,
there would be nothing to indicate one. L
think perhaps in this case we have diff
cult one 1t would be best for me to see
and talk with Mr.. Barrett in person
They found the aged blind man, and i:A
repeated for them in the minutest detail
every fact as he remembered 1t. The
Thinking Machine listened throughout with
keen attention, and at the end asked
some questions
You say, Nj. Barrett, that in addition
to your granddaughter footsteps and voice
you heard some othe. slight sound. Could
Yot: describe it?
Il hardly think So" was the reply. 1t
was. strange-peculia1.'
WAS it the sound of human voice, or
OF something being novel; insisted the
scientist.
1t could have been made by the human
voice, l suppose; but it also could have
been made by twanging rubber band. 1t
sounded cultural, unreal, uncanny.
And the thing you touched when You
started toward Your granddaughter, after
she screamed!' asked the scientist. What
did that seem to be! Clothing, flesh, wood,
some ones hair, or what
"I-I-dont know" said Barrett help
1essly. 1t was a sense of having touched
something rather than actual contact with
it. 1t might have been hair, but l don't
know what it was"

ACCUSES MOTHER
YOUNG GIRLS SAD STORY
IN COURT.
Lillian Weaver, Is Years Old, Arrested
in Raid with Parent in Silver Lake,
Reveals Her Life.

A shocking story, revolving in detail, in
which her mother was pictured as an in
human parent, was told by 1~S-year-old
Lillian Weaver. of 403 Chester avenue, this
city, before Justice of the Peace La
Faucherie In Belleville his morning. The
girl and her mother. who are white. were
arrested with three women and a man,
negroes, in a raid last night in a house
owned and occupied by Mrs. Ida Steph-
en-, at 16 Heekel street, Silver Lake. They
were all committed TO jail, being conveyed
to that institution in the county van.
The little girl showed in her testimony
a hatred for the life she led and did not
mince words In accusing her mother as
being responsible. When her recital was
finished Justice la Fauoherie turned TO
the girls mother, who is a big woman.
weighing easily over 500 pounds, and said;
If 1 had the bye l would have you
taken outside and burned alive"
The woman denied the child's story.
Constables George Gorham and Frank
Riccio raided the place. The two were
out on other business when they learned
that things were not as they should be in
the Stephen woman's house. They raided
the place after midnight and had the
prisoners taken to the Beneville lookup
in a wagon.
