WHERE HE LOST OUT.
WelLMeanins Act Probably Never viii
BE Forgiven.

A young Washington lady was re-
Gently put in very embarrassing po-
sition by a wellmeaning friend. She
was seated in the car when q gentle
man entered and occupied vacant
seat beside her. They began q gem
eral conversation and soon the young
man noticed two-pound candy box
lying on the lady's lap. AS his bust
ness also included the sale Of candies
he perhaps paid more attention to the
box than would otherwise be the case,
and while investigating he discovered
strand Of hair sticking out. Be-
lieving the box to be filled with candy
he called the attention OF the young
lady to the hair Apparently she did
not hear him. He waited awhile and
again made the same remark. And
again the lady ignored the matter.
Finally 1t seemed to prey upon his
mind so that he blurted out:
There's hair sticking from your
box Of candy"
"Oh. yes replied the young lady,
without glancfng at the box.
she continued talking and the man
got the impression that she had mis-
understood him. So he determined
to settle the matter for himself.
Reaching over he gsasped the single
strand Of hair and gave yank. He
was not prepared for what followed.
Instead OF the strand being pulled out

NEW TRIAL WANTED
More Than a Hundred Reas-
ons Assigned Why 1t
Should Be Granted.
WALSH ATTORNEYS ACT.

Chicago, March 11.-Application for
a new trial for John r. Walsh, former
president of the Chicago national bank
convicted of Illegal use of its funds,
was made in the United States district
court before Judge Anderson.
One hundred and fourteen reasons
for the granting of a new trial were
presented by the attorney for Mr..
Walsh. Chief among them were:
The conduct of Juror Ebert e. Palmer,
who because of sympathy for Walsh,
nearly collapsed in the jury box when
the verdict was returned.
Attorney Hart cited numerous au-
thorities in support of the contention
that Mr.. Walsh was not fairly convict
ed, and was followed by Attorney John
S. Miller who attacked the validity Of
the verdict because of Juror Palmer's
physical and mental condition at the
time the verdict was returned. The
arguments were resumed this morning.

to Mysteries.

New York. March 11,-Fright over
a black hand" letter picked up ar the
doorstep of her home, February 90,
was the direct cause of the death of
Grace Seamans, S, daughter OF Arthur
Seamans. according to the report of
the attending physician The letter
found by the child was addressed to
Henry Schuster, landlord of the house
in which she resided with her parents.
Its weird wording, spelled out by the
girl, was enough to cause the highly
strung young girl TO go into Mysteries.
From that time until she died she was
i'll a state of fear and excitement that
puzzled the physicians. She refused
food and screamed and cried with
terror over the evil she believed to
menace her. Her one thought was
that the black hand was after her
life.

TUREs IN DETROIT THEATERs
IS BY ELECTRICITY.

There Is nod anger of any repeti-
ton in Detroit OF such an accident
as that in Boyertown. Pa, where
many people were killed through a
fire started from a moving picture
machine" says Harry Hedges. mana
ger OF the Gayety theater
1.-The danger in the use OF such ma
chimes in small towns and one-night
stands is that acetylene gas is used
for the illumination. In the mixing
OF this, carelessness may result in an
explosion, and such terrible results
as in the accident which just oc-
cured. But in Detroit the moving
pictures in all the theaters are run
with electric current. The wires are
permanently installed. and every pre-
caution taken to guard against any
mishap. / am confident that nothing
OF the kind could happen here, even
through negligence"
