VICTIM OF CRAZED YOUTH
Chicago Man Shot Down on Streets
of MINNEAPOLIS.

Minneapolis, June 5.-A. p. Cam
den of Chicago, superintendent of con-
struction for E. l.. Benson & Co., ele-
vator builders, was shot dead on Mic
ollet avenue by an insane boy giving
his name as James Montague and his
age as twenty.
The man and boy were total stran-
gers and the murder was plainly the
conception of a crazed mind. Mon
tague was captured shortly after the
shooting.
The police have not been able to
establish the identity of the murderer.
A search of his personal effects shows
that he received mail under the name
of James Montague, but the police are
satisfied that this was a pseudopym
taken over from flash fiction. In the
boys trunk was found a complete
feminine outfit, the collar being al
ready attached to the shirtwaist as if
pared to don at short notice. A wo
mans wig was part of the disguise.
Miss May Camden, Hotel Bucking-
ham, st. Paul, has identified the body
of Montagues victim as that of her
brother, A. P Camden of Chicago.
He was in Minneapolis attending the
convention of the Fraternity of Oper-
ative Millers. He formerly resided in
St. Paul.
Montague explains the shooting sim
NV bV saving that the saloons and
theaters were all closed and he want
ed some excitement. There is no
doubt as to his insanity.

WHERE MONEY WENT.
Defaulting Pittsburg Cashier Had
Mania for Mining Stock.
OWNS FOUR MILLION SHARES

Some of the Securities Are of Little
Value, but Others, 1t Is Believed,
May Be of Use in Adding to Assets
Of Bank.
Pittsburg, June 5.-According to re-
ports William Montgomery, former
cashier of the defunct Allegheny Ma
tional bank of Pittsburg, who is in
Jail charged with the misapplication
of over 100000 of the banks funds,
has broken his sphinxlike silence and
made statement to Robert Lyons,
receiver of the institution.
AS result of the revelations made
by Montgomery it is said that the
bank, with small assessment On the
stockholders, will pay all the depos-
ftors.
The conference between the re-
ceiver and the cashier is said to have
developed the fact that Montgomery
had a mania for buying stocks of
mines and is the owner of 100000
shares of securities representing COM
panies whose properties are scattered
along the Pacific coast from South
America to Alaska Some of them,
it is believed, may be used in adding
to the assets of the bank, but it is re-
ported that many of them represented
immense losses over the original
prices.
So far as the work of clearing up
the affairs of the bank has progressed
there is now on hand 100000 in cash.
This has been collected from the hold
ers of notes found in the institution
when the receiver took charge.

The little toy that baby knew,
The little sock of faded hue,
The little lock of golden hair
Long years ago this Christmas time.
My little one-my all to me-
Sat robed in white upon my knee
And heard the merry Christmas chime
Tell me, my little golden head
If Santa Claus should come tonight
What shall he leave my baby bright,
What treasure for my boy?" ! said.
And then he named the little toy
While In his round and mournfu1 eyes
There look of glad surprise
That spoke his trustful quiet joy.
And as he llsped his evening pray'r
He asked the boon with childish grace
And toddled to the chimney place
And hung his little stocking there.
That night as lengthning shadows crept,
saw the white-winged angels come
With heavenly music to our home
And kiss my darling as he slept.
They must have heard his baby pray'r,
For in the morn with anxious face
He toddled to the chimney place
And found the little treasure there.
They came again Christmas tide,
That angel host, so fair and white,
And, singing all the Christmas night
They lured my darling ff6m'my side.

more than a year and

PEARL INDUSTRY DECLINES.
Drop In Prices Has Put Business In
Bad Way.

Reduction of the price OF mother
of pearl from $4,000 to $500 ton
on the London market during the last
six years has seriously affected the
pearling industry in Australasia, from
where the greater part Of the world 5
supply is obtained.
The most important centres of the
industry are Thursday Island, Port
Darwin and Broome. AS the amount
secured averaged four tons per boat
ner annum, and the expenses were
comparatively small, large profits for
merly were realized. The divers and
crews working on the pearhng lug
gers are introduced under agreement
with the Federal government. They
are imported for a period OF three
years. and the master is compelled
to furnish bond of $500 for every
man employed, as guaranty that
at the end of three years that man
will be deported to Singapore, the
mort from which the divers are re-
cruited. Formerly the pearlers paid
the divers $40 per month, 800 to
STE per ton bonus, and, in many in
stances, from 5 to Is per cent. for
the pearls won. Though arriving as
raw coolies, some of these Asiatics
earned from $1,000 to $4,000 per an
mum, with keep.
The divers, most of whom are Jap
anese. are well organized, having
their clubs and benefit societies, and
every japanese, whether belonging to
the crew, tender or driving staff. is
compelled by his countrymen to join.
