There Is nothing OF the Nobber in his
aristocratic appearance and well-cut
clothes. Scht:ner has also a very lux

wears la Kaiser william.
His method OF robbing, according to
Inspector McCafferty, was to go into
a rooming house OF the better class
and talk about engaging a room. He
would ask for glass OF water and then
be seized with an agonizing spasrn OF
coughing. Az rule, the woman OF the
house who was interviewing him would
run out for assistance and then
Schimer, 1t is said, took whatever was

The complainant against him is Mrs

the boy asked TO look at some 81 pants
the merchant climbed up on bench
and reached up toward a shelf
As he did so the youth stepped for
ward and swung blackjack. The
weapon struck Korenswit on the back
of the head and he fell heavily to the
floor As he dropped the boy flung him
self ON him and struck him again with
the blackjack, opening a deep cut on
his forehead.
Three More Attack Him.
The merchant was st.ll conscious. ana
struggled to throw off his assailant. He
mad almost freed himself from the grip
Of the Young thug when three more
youths piled down into the basement
and rushed for him.
one of the three put the n lie of a
revolver TO Korenswits head and the
other thrUs; the point of knife into his
stomach. Then the one with the N'ack-
Jack turned out his pockets, securing
300 in bills and Sc in change.
Still covering the merchant with the
gun the four young bandits divided the
plumber. Then the one with the stilleto
said:
Got any more?'
No" replied Korenswit.
If you're lying" said the youtn

Then they trippcd the merchant and
threw him face downward Sitting on

feet. Dripping with blood. he hurried
around the corner TO the Elizabeth

Murray what had happened. Of course,
by the tine the detectives reached the

The merchant had two deep wounds
in his head, which an ambulance
surgeon from the Gouverneur Hospital
sewed with sixteen stitches. ..orens-

Invalid Wife. #
In the early days Of the Spanish war
Mr.. Mckinley and Mark Hanna were
engaged in a close and serious evening
conference In the presidents room.
The time ran along to the hour Of 9.
Suddenly those busy in the outer room
saw President Mckinley rise and leave
the apartment. saying. wait q few mo-
ments, Mark" He was gone about
twenty minutes. In the meantime Sen
ator Hanna walked restlessly between
the two rooms, speaking word or two
to the secretaries and showing plainly
that he shared with the president .
feeling of deep anxiety as to the out
come Of the military proceedings. He
remarked on the fact Of great shortage
Of supplies and from his words and
bearing revealed to the assembled few
In that outer room that the president
and his closest advisers were lying
awake nights and working to make up
for the deficiencies of the military stu
alton.
When the president returned he and
Senator Hanna resumed their anxious
consultation. Then the presidents Sec
rotary remarked to one who was near
him:
II suppose you wonder why Presl-
dent Nc inley got up so suddenly and
left without word to any one. You
saw how anxious he was about the
military situation. Even that would
not cause him to break away from
what has come to be the custom of his
early evening.
"About the same time every night
when he hears signal from the other
side, he knows that Mrs. Mckinley is
ready to retire and wishes to see him.
No matter how busy he may be nor
how deeply engaged in any subject. liz
Invariably drops everything on the in
slant and goes to their own apart
ments. There he sits by<the bedside
and reads a chapter in the Bible to
Mrs. Mckinley. Then he waits few
moments until she Is quiet, tiptoes back
to the door, comes over here to the Of
ice and without word takes up the
thread Of his work and keeps 1t up I'M

The Wonderful Speed Developed by the
Greyhound.
Representations of the greyhound APP
pear upon sculptures over 5000 years
old. There Is no doubt that It is one
Of the very oldest fixed types Of dog
and the most universal in its distribu-
ton. India, Arabia, Persia, are among
the countries that for ages past had
the greyhound. Lately there was ex-
hibited in England a greyhound from
Afghanistan-a shaggy form suited to
that mountain land. OF course these
dogs are not all exactly greyhounds in
the western sense, but they are essen
TALLY the same in type; they are gaze
hounds" long legged, light built dogs,
bred to run their game by sight and
not by scent and to overtake 1t not by
wearing it down, but by sheer speed
and skill of running. How this type
was evolved affords much interesting
speculation.
"a greyhound is probably the fastest
creature that moves upon the earth"
says breeder of those animals. ut
Is on record that a grey beat the
famous race horse Flying Childers. An
absolute trial between horse and grey
hound is difficult to bring of, because,
while the horse can be ridden at top
speed, 1t is impossible to insure that
the greyhound will run all he can
But dog that can start, say, fifty
yards behind hare and overtake It
within another fifty. and this is about
what a greyhound does. must surely
be faster than anything else that lives
or has his parallel only among the
birds" 53
The same writer says Of grey hound
coursing: One used to hear that It
was 'pothouse,' not a 'gentleman's'
sport. But have heard men who fol-
low both declare that they prefer
coursing to racing, and can quite I'M.
derstand It. In coursing there is the
absolute certainty that all is above
suspicion Of anything shady. Every
time dog is run he Is honestly run
to win or divide the stakes. You can.
